Although since time travel, Chen Mo has gone further and further on the path of being a necromancer, and his emotions and cognition as an ordinary human have become weaker and weaker, but this does not mean that he has completely given up on his identity as a human being.
Become a human being.
Although he kills decisively in the world of Pirates of the Caribbean and shows no mercy when hunting merchant ships and pirates, and the name of the Blood Sail is also a real maritime legend, but this is still the same as ordering the annihilation of a world.
difference on.
Perhaps when playing games, he can exterminate a race without any psychological barriers, or even destroy a planet, can all alien races into starfish cans, explode the stars from the earth, and make the angels of peace not even frown.
But personally ordering the destruction of billions of humans are two completely different things.
It's like for the vast majority of people, no matter how immoral they are in the game, they probably wouldn't even dare to kill chickens in reality.
Not to mention, like children, pouring water into ant holes and drowning thousands of ants just for fun.
At least Chen Mo now does not regard himself as a superior god, nor does he regard the humans in the "Terminator" world as ants. For his own desire to conquer the world, he can crush ants to death without mercy or care.
Destroy all these billions of people.
Now he more or less regards human beings as beings of the same species as himself. Chen Mo can kill individual individuals or a group of people who pose an obstacle to him without any pressure.
But asking him to destroy the entire human race still makes him feel a little pressured.
Not everyone can easily wear the title of genocide on their head.
This is actually not difficult to understand. In ancient times, humans hunted animals for food in order to survive. This was a very normal thing.
But noble people will be kind and intolerant to those animals that are killed, which is the so-called "gentleman stays away from the kitchen".
This is not hypocrisy, but a precious and noble sentiment.
It is also the most essential difference between humans and animals.
Giving up this kind of emotion can certainly bring his mentality closer to the so-called "strong man" and "god", but Chen Mo does not want to become that kind of existence.
Seeing himself as a superior god and abandoning human emotions will make Chen Mo feel that he is no longer himself.
That's why he put this matter aside and decided to see how humans would choose.
At the same time, he also hopes to listen to other people's opinions.

"Do you think I should exterminate the human race?" Chen Mo suddenly asked while standing in front of a viewing window at the base, looking out at the deep and dark seabed.
As Chen Mo spoke, the governor's figure was instantly projected behind him, and he whispered: "Your Majesty, whatever you choose will be the embodiment of the empire's highest will."
"Is it the will of the empire?" Hearing the governor's answer, Chen Mo was somewhat understanding, but shook his head: "I don't want the empire I built to be just a cold machine that only measures everything by profit."
Chen Mo's words were not stated clearly, but the governor obviously understood what Chen Mo meant.
Regarding the destruction of humanity, there is no doubt that Chen Mo's order to destroy humanity is the most beneficial and most beneficial approach to the empire.
For this world, destroying humanity is the way to maximize the interests of the empire.
However, in Chen Mo’s view, if everything is just about maximizing profits, what is the difference between humans and machines?
You must know that he is a necromancer. For necromancers, especially high-level necromancers, strong emotions and obsessions are the most fundamental things.
Only strong enough emotions can sustain a soul's existence for thousands of years, and after being tempered by time, it can still shine with brilliance.
If these emotions are lost, it means death for the undead.
After all, the undead are not machines. They will not and cannot calculate everything based on cold numbers and interests.
"Although we are electronic undead, like ordinary undead, we still need emotions to maintain our existence." Standing behind Chen Mo, the Governor said both in answer and explanation: "The essence of electronic undead relies on numbers and
A special kind of soul that exists on the Internet. Although we can copy ourselves through data, or split ourselves into countless data packets and incarnate into millions, in essence we are still souls, relying on obsession to maintain our existence.
If we lose our obsessions and emotions, then we are no longer souls, but just an electronic program, because only by having emotions can we have ourselves, not a cold machine.
Therefore, in the future, all the electronic undead in the "Terminator" world will be stamped with the ideological stamp of loyalty to the empire, and will use loyalty to the empire as their obsession and foundation to maintain their own existence.
But for the advanced electronic undead, in addition to their loyalty to the empire, they also have their own obsessions and emotions, which can make them more powerful."
"What about you, Governor? There is no doubt that you are the top administrator of the empire in this world, and you are undoubtedly a high-level being." After listening to the Governor's words, Chen Mo looked at the Governor through the reflection in the glass in front of him and asked her
Said: "Besides loyalty to the empire, what are the emotions or obsessions that support and maintain your existence?"
Faced with Chen Mo's question, the Governor did not answer. He just saluted Chen Mo and said, "Your Majesty, please allow me to keep a little bit of personal privacy on this point. Although it is only a trivial matter and has nothing to do with the interests of the empire, but
But it is my most cherished secret, so please allow me to keep this secret."
The Governor is not a program, but a complete soul.
This was discovered after Chen Mo launched the so-called Trojan Project, destroyed the human network, recollected the data about the governor that was spread on the network, and integrated it into her main program.
The Governor hid her data in the White Spider's database. After coming to this world, she divided it into countless data packets and distributed them on the network. After they were reunited, her soul emerged from the program and data.
And this is what surprised Chen Mo. What kind of obsession did she rely on to be able to break her soul into countless parts and then reunite them to maintain her existence?
You must know that even if the electronic undead can replicate and split itself by virtue of its special characteristics, there are limits.
What's more, Chen Mo had personally handled the previous Governor's data, but there was no breath or trace of soul in those data.
This naturally made Chen Mo curious about how the governor maintained himself.
