I am in a world where time stands still

Chapter 187 Five Factions of AI-Enhanced Composite Humans

"You guys, do you know your background?" Chi Yongnan asked calmly.

If you are someone else, you may feel that this question is a bit inexplicable and you don't understand it.

But Zhu Zhen and Luo Yu were obviously not others, they didn't find this question strange at all, on the contrary, there was a little sacred color on their faces.

"Boss, you mean, our current self?" Zhu Zhen's tone was a little strange.

Chi Yongnan took another sip of water, nodded and said: "It's okay, Zhu Zhen, it's just us now, the usual ban can be temporarily lifted, now let's have a good talk about 'us'."

"Yeah, that would be great!"

"Boss, I've wanted to talk to you about this topic for a long time!"

Zhu Zhen and Luo Yu were unexpectedly very excited.

For them, talking about "us" has always been strictly forbidden, and it has become a kind of untouchable secret.

Chi Yongnan smiled, although he was not as excited as Zhu Zhen and the others, but there was some strange brilliance in his eyes.

"Everyone still has the memory of being a pure biological person in the past, but I all know that your past life was not so beautiful, and it even had some tragic or cruel taste..."

"However, all of us have done the most profound psychological construction from the moment we accepted the transformation. No matter how powerful we become after the transformation, we will never forget the bits and pieces of being ordinary people in the past. Chi Yongnan looked at Zhu Zhen and Luo Yu and asked, "Do you know why?"

"Boss, I know, this should be to remind us, never forget the past humiliation and suffering!"

"Yes, the hardships we have suffered in the past, as long as they don't kill us, will motivate us to become stronger now!"

The two said solemnly.

Chi Yongnan nodded, and continued: "You are all right, but not all right. Just taking this opportunity today, I will share with you about our No. 2."

"By the way, boss, I've always wanted to ask you," Luo Yu raised his hand, "Why do we call ourselves No. 2?"

"Well, it's very simple," Chi Yongnan looked up at the sky, and exhaled after a long time, "We are not the only AI-enhanced compound humans, in fact, there are 5 factions in this world, and we are just one of them .”

"Five factions!" Both Zhu Zhen and Luo Yu opened their mouths in surprise.

In the past, they rarely had the opportunity to listen to Chi Yongnan's stories about the earliest origins, and it was not easy for them to ask directly.

But this time, Chi Yongnan actually directly revealed such a big secret to them, about their original origin, which really caught them off guard and was not mentally prepared.

However, now that they have come here, they suddenly become very curious.

After all, being able to figure out their true origins is still very tempting for them.

They don't know, since they have kept it secret in the past, why did they tell them again this time?
This sudden action, what kind of stone did he come to Moyun Snow Mountain to find, and what kind of deep meaning did he have?
No matter what, Zhu Zhen and Luo Yu could foresee that today would be extraordinary.

Sure enough, Chi Yongnan slowly said something that he had never said before, "Yes, there are 5 factions. Everyone tacitly calls themselves No. 1, No. 2, No. 3, No. 4 and No. 5. Of course, the five factions come from from a common ancestor, number 5."

"No. 0?" Both of them were stunned. It was the first time they heard about this so-called No. 0. Such an inside story was simply unheard of.

"I know what you are thinking," Chi Yongnan spread his hands, "Even I have never seen this number 0, I just heard about it from my creator. For me, number 0 is also a legend .”

"That is to say, number 0 is the common ancestor of all 5 factions?"

"That's right, that's what it means!" Chi Yongnan nodded.

Seeing that Zhu Zhen and Luo Yu were still puzzled, Chi Yongnan continued: "You know, I can be counted as your creator, and my creator is also the original leader of our No. 2 faction. That one - Moss. Moss was created directly by No. 0."

"No. 0 created it himself?!" Zhu Zhen and Luo Yu were shocked.

"That's right, in fact, there are only 0 AI composite enhanced people created by No. 5. These 5 people have created the 5 factions I just mentioned. We belong to the No. 2 faction created by Moss."

"It's like this..." Zhu Zhen and Luo Yu both lowered their heads and murmured.

Their emotions can be described as complicated and difficult to describe.

For a long time, Zhu Zhen and Luo Yu thought that they were the only AI-enhanced compound human group, and never thought about the existence of factions.

As for their common ancestor, it was Moss who had always been above them.

But who would have thought that Moss was also created as the second generation.

The real ancestor turned out to be this truly mysterious, so-called No. 0.

Luo Yu thought of something, and asked tentatively, "Does that mean that our kind is actually more than we imagined, and our power is actually bigger? If there are other 4 factions, does it mean that our The number of people should actually be multiplied by 5?"

"Haha..." Chi Yongnan smiled and shook his head, "Luo Yu, you are too simple."

Luo Yu blushed, pursed her lips, and subconsciously wanted to argue.

But she didn't speak after all, and his long-standing habit made him feel awed by Chi Yongnan, so he usually wouldn't talk back.

Knowing Luo Yu's puzzlement, Chi Yongnan said, "If the five factions can really work together, why are they divided into five factions? Why not merge into one faction?"

Zhu Zhen guessed, "Is it because the five factions are not harmonious?"

"It's not just disharmony, it's simply incompatible!" Chi Yongnan's voice became louder, as if he was a little angry.

But he quickly smiled and shook his head, "Is there any way? It seems that every faction thinks that they are the real second-generation rulers, and everyone thinks that only they can represent the real existence of AI-enhanced compound humans. In fact, this The reason is too simple, no one can represent it. Otherwise, we AI-enhanced compound humans no longer need to hide their names and hide our existence, we would have replaced them and ruled the world long ago!"

Zhu Zhen and Luo Yu's eyes shone with light, which was so similar to the light in Chi Yongnan's eyes at this moment.

Yes, to rule the world is almost their common dream!

"Then those other factions, who are they and where are they?" Luo Yu thought of a key question.
