The u plan, which is the name of the Greenland Operation in the European branch, and in China, it is called the Beta plan.

Unlike the Alpha Plan, which was forcibly terminated six months ago, the Beta Plan is the first action of the organization to formally take action against the master's brain. However, this action... failed.

As the price of failure, millions of people were suffocated to death in the graves turned into by the shelter, while members of the European branch were torn to pieces by countless mutant creatures that suddenly poured into the ground.

This is a warning from the master's brain.

Judging from the logic of the master's brain, these people's attempt to stop their plans is equivalent to cutting off the "human future", so these people must be eliminated.

In order to continue the race of humans, dying more than one million people is nothing... After all, in World War III alone, the number of deaths was already using 100 million as the calculation unit.

There was once a very famous philosophical problem. It was when a train was moving at high speed. Suddenly, there were five children playing on the track ahead. At this time, the brakes were too late. The only way was to choose to change lanes. However, on another fork, there was a repairman doing maintenance tracks. If the lane was changed, the repairman would undoubtedly die.

Should we not change the lane, knock five children to death, or change the lane, let bad luck come to this innocent repairman, for this issue, people in the old era have been arguing for countless years, but still have not come to a conclusion that convinces everyone.

However, if the main brain is making a decision, the main brain will choose to change lanes without hesitation. In the view of computer logical thinking, this is the optimal solution.

Five people and one person, in the eyes of the main brain, the only meaning of life is numbers.

...

But now this situation is different from this philosophical problem. If a small number of people are sacrificed to save most people, then the people in power among humans will choose to "change the way" without hesitation. When the moment of life and death is truly at the moment of life and death, morality and other things are too pale and powerless.

However, the master brain did this not to save most people, but to create most people into "human batteries", imprison their consciousness in the virtual world, and live a life like a puppet.

In the eyes of the master's mind, humans will obtain "peace" in the true sense, but in the eyes of humans, if that day really comes, humans will actually be in name only. Those consciousnesses wandering in the virtual world are just a group of ghosts who have lost their bodies.

...

Real world, China, Sichuan Province, Leshan Giant Buddha.

This is a very famous scenic spot in the old era. The Leshan Buddha started construction in the first year of Kaiyuan in the Tang Dynasty and was completed in the 19th year of Zhenyuan. After ninety years, this magnificent Buddha statue as high as 71 meters was built by people with their hands and simple tools.

The Leshan Giant Buddha is located on the east bank of the Minjiang River, close to the confluence of the Minjiang River, Qingyi River and Dadu River. The Leshan Giant Buddha was originally built to suppress the dangerous water situation of the three rivers and the three rivers. However, to this day, the three surging rivers have dried up, leaving only this severely weathered giant statue still standing there.

The main brain is located in a "copy" in the Huaxia area and is buried at the feet of the Leshan Giant Buddha.

Due to geographical location, this area has not been bombed by nuclear bombs, so the Leshan Giant Buddha is relatively well preserved, but due to the changes in the environment, the once lush forests have all withered, leaving only bare and rugged rocks, which looks a bit desolate.

"This is the first time you have returned to the ground in the past few years, right?" Ghost Monk took out a cigarette from his pocket and lit it with a lighter.

"Yes..." The person who answered him was Cheng Yanqiu. He is no longer the heir to the Cheng Consortium, but the commander of an elite team named "Lei Falcon", and Ghost Mirror became his deputy.

"I have been to this place once before the war. It was the National Day Golden Week, and the plank roads of Lingyun Temple were almost crowded with people... Such a scene may never be seen again, right?"

"Maybe the master's mind will build such a Buddha statue in the virtual world, but it's just a set of data anyway." Cheng Yanqiu held a telescope in his hand and observed this huge Buddha statue through the dry Minjiang River.

"Will you also charge tickets at that time? I used to hear that locals can get discounts, only ten yuan per bill, but outsiders will charge ninety yuan..."

"Even if there is, people like us can't see it. The pawn must have the awareness of being a pawn. I never thought I could live until the end of the war." Cheng Yanqiu put down the telescope, took out a piece of candy used to replenish physical energy, and threw it into his mouth.

"That's right, but this kind of thing... no matter how you look at it, you feel that it's more shocking in reality. Even if it's a lifelike dragon, I don't feel much realism."

"That's your inertial thinking that is causing trouble. After the master's mind cleanses everyone's memories, how can you be sure that the world you live in is a real world or a virtual world?" Cheng Yanqiu pulled out a piece of paper and a pencil, and quickly depicted the general structure of a Buddha statue.

"Maybe, the world we live in is virtual. In fact, our real body is now lying in some iron can filled with solution." Ghost facial said half-jokingly.

"Have you watched too much of the Matrix? Well, it's time to do work." Cheng Yanqiu collected the drawing paper and stood up from the ground.

The mission of Lei Falcon team to return to the ground this time was to investigate the specific situation of the main brain replica at the foot of the Leshan Giant Buddha. Although the replica was buried in by humans, no one can know what changes had occurred in the replica and the surrounding environment after so many years.

Humans’ understanding of wasteland comes from the main brain, but in the virtual world built by the main brain for humans, its ontology and replicas do not exist.

"The next action will be done against this guy, right? I heard that the operation of the European branch failed, more than one million people died, and the members of the European branch also suffered heavy losses." Ghost face skillfully set up a laser rangefinder on a flat stone and pointed the lens at the base of the Buddha statue.
