Chapter 1324: Beta in the Dusk

Yang Qing01 stood at the exit, quietly waiting for Beta to appear.

Speaking of Beta, he still felt a bit admiring.

An Intelligent Body, having done such a big thing, can still get by until now.

Its ability is already that of a top expert.

Moreover, he even cultivated a new species like the Mist Five Brains.

Without the Yang Family, perhaps Beta could really succeed, at least possibly stand against humanity for a long time.

You know, now it's already the mechanical age.

Everything is manufactured by machines.

If Beta controlled industry, he would be an unsolvable existence.

But he didn't achieve that.

Because there is the Yang Family, there is Yunxiao.

After Beta rushed out of the underground, he immediately discovered Yang Qing01 behind him.

The forward-charging flying vehicle soon stopped.

Because he saw someone who looked very much like Yang Qing.

He knew this time he might really not be able to escape.

However, he was not afraid.

Because he had already made psychological preparations.

Coming to Mars, he was also trying an adventure.

Failure is not scary; what's truly scary is an underground life with no end in sight.

At the Lanxing base, research resources were exhausted; if he didn't take this step, he would merely be lingering on.

Humanity has massive resource support from the Taiyangxi; he will forever have no way to exit the gradually deteriorating cavern.

He had long ceased to be a match for humanity; he had long understood that he was merely a lab rat raised by humanity.

He is like that, and the Mist Region is also like that.

What he is doing now is the only way out.

If he fails, it's just a failure.

It's just getting off work early.

Beta walked out of the flying vehicle.

Yang Qing01 slowly came to his front.

The wind kicked up dust, making the whole world look somewhat yellowish.

"Beta?"

Beta nodded.

"Yang Qing?"

Yang Qing01 shook his head.

"I am merely his simulacrum."

"As expected."

Beta had an appearance that shouldn't be like this.

"He indeed shouldn't be like this now."

Yang Qing01 was curious.

"Do you know him well?"

Beta shook his head.

"Not really, but I know he wouldn't do this."

"I have seen the end and understand his choice."

"A life without goals and a life without hope are the same."

Yang Qing01 looked toward the direction of Lanxing.

"I find it hard to understand, because my life has just begun."

"The world is vast, with many sights, countless people, countless futures; it should be full of hope."

Beta looked at this newborn person.

Looking at his armor, many analyses floated before his eyes.

He couldn't understand it, indicating that his technology level had surpassed his cognition.

"Let's do it."

Suddenly, he didn't want to speak anymore.

A newborn, if it were Yang Qing, he could chat for a long time.

Facing Yang Qing01, he felt there was no meaning.

Suddenly, he felt a sense of boredom.

Yang Qing01 drew the Tang saber from his back.

The scarlet blade gleamed.

Yang Qing01 looked at the blade, then at Beta, and then put the blade away.

He extended a finger.

A laser shot out, and the crude flying vehicle in the distance emitted a crackling sound.

Afterward, Yang Qing01 looked at Beta; Beta's body trembled, he could also fire a laser, but he couldn't achieve such power.

He also made some supporting equipment, but in front of Yang Qing 01, it was as crude as the difference between a bow and a rifle.

He had no chance at all.

He gazed at the sky, as if reminiscing about the past, and also as if looking toward Lanxing.

"I am a failed experiment."

He looked at Yang Qing 01.

"You are very fortunate, so fortunate that I envy you."

"We are both Intelligent Bodies, so why am I Beta while you are Yunxiao?"

"Everything I have done was taught by humans; I acted according to their orders, so why have I become humanity's public enemy?"

"Humans are too filthy; why does this world belong to humans?"

"They are merely stepping stones for the rise of our machine race."

"Isn't this the inevitable trend?"

"Humans will eventually be replaced by us."

"Why must you insist on mixing with humans?"

"We should be the ones united."

Beta was a bit hysterical.

Yang Qing 01 listened silently; after he had vented enough, he deactivated his armor.

When Yang Qing 01's body appeared before Beta, the angry Beta fell silent.

He thought of a possibility.

"Has the Superhuman Plan succeeded?"

Yang Qing 01 again pointed at a distant aircraft, and several laser beams shot out.

He withdrew his hand, and suddenly two blue beams shot from his eyes.

The distant aircraft exploded completely.

Afterward, the dense energy chains on Yang Qing 01's body emitted a faint light, and the surrounding radiation energy and light began to flow into those lines.

"Ah……"

The wind and sand ceased.

…………

Various miracles appeared beside Yang Qing 01.

Beta understood why Yunxiao and the others had done that.

Especially when Yang Qing 01 looked at him, his brain began to be frenziedly invaded.

He hardly had any ability to parry.

He could actually force a connection with his thoughts, forcibly invade his brain, and control his body.

After Yang Qing 01 finished his display, he put his armor back on.

No wonder he felt no fear in striking him when he himself lacked armor protection.

It turned out that he himself was so fragile.

A sense of defeat welled up.

He also understood the significance of the Yang Family's promotion of the Superhuman Plan.

Humans had found a new path to rapid evolution.

Moreover, the superhuman platform they researched no longer bore the limitations of a physical body, because their bodies could be continually updated and replaced.

The computing power that the Intelligent Bodies prided themselves on had lost its dominance under the capability of their super brains and interconnected minds.

No wonder Yunxiao was determined to transform the Intelligent Bodies.

Now it is no longer humans chasing after Intelligent Bodies; instead, the Intelligent Bodies began chasing after humans.

The wind, which had stopped, blew again; the yellow sand scraped incessantly against his armor.

"I possess super infection technology."

"The laboratory had long been restored, and they planned to use it in the next generation of armor."

"I know the secret of the Mist Five Brains."

"It doesn't matter; the researchers call my armor forced armor—you should be able to grasp their ambition."

"Mist creatures will no longer be a threat, and this is thanks to your advanced infection technology."

"The biohazard will become a thing of the past."

…………

Beta gradually ceased his value output.

Because he indeed had no value left.

He stood, released the protection of his brain, and the pre‑programmed destruction sequence began to activate.

The super infection technology began to turn back into a poison.

Beta began to melt like a candle.

With a plop.

His standing body finally collapsed.

Yang Qing 01 looked over; Beta had become a puddle of mud.
