Chapter 710 435: World Leader (Part 2)

Amidst a moment of silence, someone asked, "So, according to you, can the construct solve these problems?"

Su Mo answered without hesitation, "Yes, she can, at least in my opinion."

"Su Motong has absorbed all the knowledge from the Human Document. She can see through the objective laws of all things and is an embodiment of absolute sensibility coexisting with absolute rationality. There is no more perfect individual in the world than her."

"I believe she can rely on her supreme wisdom to find a path for humanity, a path that ensures history does not repeat itself."

"More importantly, once she ascends from 'Queen Bee' to 'Main Brain', she will gain near-eternal life. She will not disappear with time and can forever lead humanity forward."

"In the world she creates, no one will suffer from hunger or cold, no one will face oppression and exploitation, and every person—I'm talking about every single individual in the true sense of the word—will be able to attain happiness."

"I just want you all to be happy, that's all."

Upon hearing these words, the communication channel once again fell into a long silence.

Su Mo's heartfelt words moved many, and at the very least, everyone realized that accusing him of being a traitor to humanity was unfair.

He has not lost his reason nor has he gone mad.

He is merely pursuing something that no one in the history of civilization has accomplished.

He wants to give everyone a perfect world.

A utopia that has never appeared at any time.

A utopia that only exists in human speculative fiction.

At this moment, some were moved by Su Mo's almost boundless altruism, shedding tears.

But there were also those who could not comprehend such advanced thinking, loudly questioning, "Director Su, I understand your idea, but I don't get why you think only constructs can achieve this? Do you not trust humanity?!"

Su Mo: "I believe in the kindness and courage of humanity, just as I believe in human greed and selfishness."

"From primitive settlements to the brilliant civilization we have now, the greatness of our species is beyond doubt, but human nature is our eternal weakness."

"The vast majority of people are selfish, the first thing they consider in a problem is surely themselves and those close to them, and I'm the same."

"Su Motong once asked me, if in the future I became the world leader, and one day my lover committed a crime punishable by death according to the law, what would I do?"

"I answered her, I would protect my lover without hesitation and silence anyone who knew about the incident. I would really do it."

"So I'm very aware that I am not qualified to be a leader, and anyone as selfish as me is not qualified to be a leader. Tragically, this kind of selfishness is exactly the norm for humanity."

"This is us humans, a species both great and selfish."

"Humans can overcome many mighty enemies, yet we cannot overcome ourselves."

Someone reluctantly asked, "So you choose to let constructs rule us? Do you think constructs are more perfect than humans?"

Su Mo: "At least from a biological characteristic point of view, yes."

"Near eternal life, supreme wisdom, and hive mind granting supercomputer-like processing speed..."

"In the recent capital city battle, Su Motong could control over two million constructs simultaneously, and it wasn't through a unified command, but by 'micro-managing' each individual. Do you know what this means?"

"There's a theory in corporate management that one person can manage a maximum of 8 direct subordinates, if the numbers go higher, they cannot give adequate attention to everyone."

"The same goes for governance. Have there been perfect leaders in history? Yes."

"But why can't they achieve perfection during their reign? Because even the greatest leader cannot attend to everything personally."

"Among so many national and governmental affairs, some matters must be delegated to subordinates, and they too have limited energy, thus needing to further delegate tasks... This process inevitably leads to problems."

"The ultimate result is the misalignment of the leader's will and the execution, and sound policies are turned into a mess—this is a common issue with all human governments."

"But Su Motong, with her hive mind, is different. Her information processing speed is beyond imagination, and controlling over two million constructs was my limit at that time, not hers."

"Su Motong can instantly process astronomical amounts of information; a blink of her eye can accomplish work that would take an ordinary human a lifetime."

"Do you know what this means? It means she doesn't have to cooperate with anyone, she is both the thinker and the executor, and all her intentions can be perfectly executed, with attention to every detail and personal involvement."

At this point, Su Mo rarely used a humorous tone: "She can even ponder how humanity will step into the universe while considering what you should have for lunch today."

Su Mo's statement was undeniably alluring.

The intended goodwill from above, executed poorly below... How many times has this happened, how many times has it disgusted people—it's impossible to count.

If what Su Mo says is true, that there exists such a high being capable of governing the entire world alone, acting as they think, and serving wholeheartedly for the happiness of humanity, it could indeed be a blessing for humans.

And from what everyone knows about Su Mo, he is a realistic person who wouldn't exaggerate just to promote his own will.

If he says Su Motong has this capability, then it's likely to be true.

Now the only resistance people feel might be due to Su Motong's identity as a construct.

"Different species have different minds."

This old saying is quite extreme, as facts have proven it wrong.

In the old civilization, there were hundreds of countries, and if traced back, people today might all descend from different countries and nationalities, yet they've integrated well now, haven't they?

But if you really ask them to let go of prejudice and accept a construct as a human leader, this old saying becomes the greatest gap in their hearts.

Someone tentatively said, "Director Su, how about this, you establish a final safeguard!"

"Whether it's installing a bomb in Su Motong or some other means, you need to leave humanity with a way to kill her!"

"If one day Su Motong does something harmful to humanity, at least this way we have a chance to resist and keep our fate in our own hands."

Hearing these words, the same profound look reappeared in Su Mo's eyes as when he said he wouldn't destroy the Spear of Judgment.

"I will not leave humanity with a final safeguard."

"Not only will I not leave one, I will completely destroy the only safeguard."

Su Mo produced the Desecrating Silence Sword and displayed it before everyone.

"This weapon is called the Desecrating Silence Sword. It's the only weapon in the world capable of killing the Main Brain, and it's the only thing that could threaten Su Motong after she ascends to the Main Brain."

The next moment, Su Mo grasped the blade, his inner strength surging, and cracks appeared on it.

Amidst the crowd's desperate cries, he shattered the Desecrating Silence Sword.

From this moment onwards, the Main Brain became an ultimate existence that would never perish.

Forget other outsiders, even Su Mo himself could not kill the complete form of the Main Brain.

Someone despairingly questioned, "Why did you do this? Why didn't you leave us any hope?!"

Su Mo: "Because I understand very well that leaving you hope is planting the seed for destruction."

"Humans are ambitious creatures. If I leave you a final safeguard, no matter how well Su Motong does, there will inevitably be ambitious people among humanity."

"Those people will claim to act for all of humanity, inciting and provoking you, attempting to replace Su Motong to fulfill their own ambitions."

"Only by destroying the safeguard and cutting off these people's delusions can Su Motong proceed without worries, ensuring humanity's eternal bright future."

Su Mo tossed aside the damaged Desecrating Silence Sword and calmly said, "I've said enough, and I'm tired."

"The global broadcast ends here. Next, I will complete the final upgrade of Su Motong, making her the Main Brain. Please wait patiently."

Before the communication cut off, someone shouted hoarsely, "I don't understand, why do you trust her so much?!"

Su Mo gave the camera one last look, his face melting into a gentle smile of a fatherly warmth.

"Because she is my child, my daughter."
