Chapter 717 - 717: 532 Wisdom creatures' spirituality_2

Of course, it might also be a case of everyone being dazzled at once.

But regardless, beneath each incident that erupted, it only served to prove that General Bai E's value was still increasing.

In such circumstances, General Bai E's opinion had become an undeniable will.

Amid the ensuing silence, someone clapped and cheered, "I think General Bai E is right, these old soldiers, even after leaving the barracks, still long for the city. It's precisely to demonstrate their own value that they took such a bold move. If they hadn't shown us first-hand, how could we have realized the true power of the technology they've provided? I support General Bai E's words!"

"I support it!"

"I support it too!"

With Bai E's speech, the atmosphere in the room instantly shifted.

The same words, coming from Bai E's mouth, had an entirely different effect than when spoken by others.

"General Bai E, I know you too are an artificial human, but please be aware of the many drawbacks of artificial humans in your heart. Marshal Lawrence once got involved with the artificial human controversy. You have a great future ahead, and we actually hope that you won't get too entangled in such matters."

"I know," Bai E responded expressionlessly, "but I believe every artificial human will not betray... the city. They've done nothing wrong, they should be released outright."

And so the decision was made, "Alright! Then let's do as General Bai E suggests and release them immediately!"

Following this unexpected turn of events and the conclusion of the meeting, Bai E headed straight for Helen's re

So the veterans' volunteering was bound to be ill-fated.

"However, no matter what, the development team that completed this finished product, they are really impressive," Helen said after learning about the ins and outs of the situation and knowing that the veterans and Bai E had the same origins. "They are really impressive."

When her gaze fell on the green cans before her, Helen's eyes were filled with reverence, "The will of these veterans... is also tough enough. They, in fact, are still alive."

Living mechanically like this seemed like eternal torture.

Yet they consented willingly.

After waiting for two or three seconds, seeing Helen pause in her speech, Bai E spoke softly, "You just said... they also possess the potential for Spiritual Energy?"

Bai E also wanted to know where the lethal power that outmatched the Mechanical Court Mecha and himself came from.

Was it the demon? Or spirituality? Or perhaps... simply the power of computation itself?

If mere computational power could achieve that extent, would the increasingly sophisticated city-controlled internet computer systems also be able to produce the same results in battle?

This weapon, assembled by the Small War gang from limited materials on hand, almost cost him his life. Could the city, once it fully mastered this power... make his own voice gradually irrelevant?

Another question remained—if computational power could achieve all this, what about the weapons controlled by the Smart Machinery inherited from the Golden Age?

When he single-handedly attacked the Smart Machinery Factory, why wasn't he easily torn to shreds by them?

Helen sighed softly and shook her head, "This is exactly what I'm trying to figure out."

She was certain that the firepower networks formed by the current human-controlled computer systems could not instantly shred the top-tier Mecha of the Mechanical Court. She found it hard to believe, and even harder to accept, that the computational power of this organic brain system could surpass the existing internet computer systems.

In the experiments they conducted after obtaining this organic brain system, it could no longer perform the same operation.

That leaves only two possibilities—

Either a gift from the demons or innate spirituality...

But both of these carry variables, as the manifestation of spirituality requires a catalyst, not to mention demonic influence.

To determine which possibility it might be, a certain opportunity is needed.

"If it comes from spirituality, is there any way to harness it?"

"Oh?" Helen glanced over with her beautiful eyes, "Do you have any ideas?"

Bai E's words would not be without foundation; as someone who had fought it personally, his opinions were extremely valuable.

"I was thinking... could this ability to directly connect with machinery be used in piloting Mecha?" Bai E and Helen looked at each other quietly, "The current way of operating Mecha is too antiquated..."

Helen's eyes lit up, "That's actually a very good idea!"
