After reimbursing all upfront costs and successfully acquiring more experimental equipment and materials, Ding Yun returned to her research lab without asking further questions.
She continued her research into plants that could eliminate other forms of pollution.
As for how she conducted her research.
It naturally relied on the Daughter Spring water.
However, the Daughter Spring water was ultimately just a special nutrient solution and did not inherently possess the ability to cultivate species in a specific direction. It could only, to a certain extent, increase a species' adaptability to its environment and guide its genes towards natural evolution, preventing genetic collapse.
The previous modifications to human genes had been swift and smooth.
This was primarily because Ding Yun did not require human genes to possess any special abilities; she only needed them to adapt to the current environment. This objective aligned perfectly with the function of the Daughter Spring water, and by creating a specific environment for it, it could be achieved smoothly.
However, researching plant genes was different. Ding Yun did not need plants that could adapt to the polluted environment outside; she needed plants that could absorb, alleviate, and even purify the polluted environment outside.
This was not something that could be achieved with just the Daughter Spring.
In this regard, Ding Yun had indeed dedicated a great deal of effort, conducting no less than ten thousand experiments and over three thousand different targeted cultivation attempts. Only then, through painstaking effort, did she manage to utilize the special vitality of the Daughter Spring water and cultivate the strains she desired.
Yet, even so, Ding Yun had only achieved some breakthroughs and results in dealing with ordinary pollution. She still had no progress regarding various forms of radiation pollution.
Since there was nothing else to do for the time being.
And coupled with the abundance of experimental materials.
Ding Yun naturally had to continue to focus intently on this issue.
After all, generally speaking, ordinary pollution primarily affected human health, making people more susceptible to various diseases. Radiation pollution, on the other hand, was what truly affected genes. If radiation pollution could not be eliminated, it would be like treating a symptom without addressing the root cause.
This was clearly unacceptable.
While Ding Yun was busy with her research.
The people in their organization had already begun actively establishing new environmental purification companies. They purchased a large number of basic planting robots and started deploying them everywhere to plant the new strains cultivated by Ding Yun to purify the environment.
The initial purification efforts focused on areas with relatively simple pollution.
For example, a piece of land with only heavy metal pollution and no other contaminants would undoubtedly be the easiest to purify. This was because by planting a batch of plants specifically designed to absorb heavy metals on this land,
After three to five years, this land would be purified. It could then be used not only for planting pure natural vegetation but also as a new safe living base.
No matter how one calculated it, it would not result in a loss.
In fact, the profits in the later stages might be quite considerable.
The money earned would then be reinvested in other areas to manage more complex and difficult polluted regions. This approach allowed for expansion of the purification scope with income and expenditure. If they incurred losses from beginning to end without earning a single cent, even with their organization's willingness to invest, it would be difficult to sustain in the long run, and some might even object.
These changes.
Still did not attract the attention of the World Main Brain.
In fact, due to their excellent performance in pollution control, they were granted considerable tax incentives.
This relatively peaceful situation continued for another three years, until Ding Yun's organization, after expending immense funds and investing numerous elite talents and researchers, finally succeeded in developing an artificial intelligence that surpassed the World Main Brain in all aspects, including its intelligence level.
They called it the New Human Main Brain.
As soon as this artificial intelligence, which carried all the hopes of Ding Yun's organization, was born, their organization immediately formulated a rebellion plan based on it. However, they remained quite cautious and did not act immediately.
Instead, they began to hold numerous meetings to refine the plan.
During the meetings, different individuals proposed various suggestions, such as cutting off power and network connections to the World Main Brain's location, and using strong ionizing weapons to limit the World Main Brain's power, preventing it from directly mobilizing all robots to destroy humanity.
But as they discussed further, they grew increasingly apprehensive.
Because as their discussions continued, the maximum destructive power the World Main Brain could unleash gradually became known to them. While it was true that the artificial intelligence they created was superior to the World Main Brain in some aspects, and technically sound,
The difference was that their created artificial intelligence was an isolated entity, whereas the World Main Brain was the supreme overlord of the real-world network. It could even manipulate all officially sold artificial intelligences.
And the robots under the jurisdiction of artificial intelligence.
If they could not control or destroy the World Main Brain in the shortest possible time, the consequences of its outbreak would be unimaginable. To put it bluntly, if the World Main Brain's core programming truly did not consider the New Humans as humans, then in a critical situation, it could directly order robots to destroy the New Humans or initiate world-ending operations.
While the possibility of this was not very high.
It did exist.
Because of this, the members of Ding Yun's organization became increasingly worried with each discussion, feeling that the plan was incomplete, had loopholes, and that if the calculated success rate did not exceed ninety percent, it would be imprudent to act rashly.
It had to be said that some ancient sayings held true.
For example, "Scholars rebel, but fail within three years."
Some martial individuals or those with less education might be stimulated and impulsively rise up in rebellion.
However, those with higher cultural levels would consider the worthiness of the cause, then the probability of success, and during the process, they would constantly worry about unforeseen events. After much deliberation, they would find it difficult to make a final decision.
This was precisely the situation Ding Yun's organization found themselves in.
They consistently felt that the rebellion plan was not perfect enough.
But no matter how much they hesitated, this matter still had to be done; they would not feel at ease if they didn't.
So, after more than a year, when the researchers specializing in artificial intelligence developed a special artificial intelligence blocking virus, and confirmed that this virus could disrupt the interconnectedness between artificial intelligences, rendering the World Main Brain isolated as well, they finally made a formal decision and initiated the rebellion plan.
Of course, the previously mentioned countermeasures.
They did not abandon them, but intended to implement them all together.
After all, any measure that could weaken the World Main Brain was welcome; there could never be too many.
As the plan commenced.
The members of Ding Yun's organization first used technical and manual physical means to forcibly sever all power supply equipment and communication interaction devices outside the World Main Brain's main location. In addition, they brought out all the information jamming devices they could find.
And activated them openly.
This was the task of one group of people.
Another group of people directly carried signal blockers, signal disruptors, and various other instruments. While trying to avoid the robots surrounding the World Main Brain's perimeter,
They were attempting to infiltrate the World Main Brain's location.
Preparing to directly destroy the World Main Brain's core.
However, these were not their most critical methods. Their most critical method was to release the virus and the New Human Main Brain, which they had prepared for a long time.
To have that Main Brain eliminate the World Main Brain.
In other words, to use artificial intelligence to fight artificial intelligence.
As for the outcome, it had to be said that their thorough preparations had a certain effect. Although the World Main Brain had backup power and could even utilize satellite signals specifically designed for anti-interference,
The World Main Brain had no preparation for an artificial intelligence blocking virus.
Therefore, it was ultimately unable to mobilize all artificial intelligences and could only confront the New Human Main Brain, prepared by Ding Yun's organization, head-on.
But even so, Ding Yun's organization might have underestimated the power of the World Main Brain. The struggle between the two was not only evenly matched, but the World Main Brain also seemed to be able to allocate some of its energy to cracking the virus.
If it successfully deciphered the virus, they would likely be no match for it and their efforts would be in vain.
Facing this dangerous situation.
The individuals leading this plan exchanged glances and finally nodded, issuing the command to activate their organization's ultimate trump card.
At the same time, the creator of the New Human Main Brain, responsible for the overall offensive plan, sighed and finally had to close his eyes and reluctantly press the button, initiating the mutually assured destruction key of the New Human Main Brain.
This was their worst-case scenario.
At the cost of the New Human Main Brain's destruction, it would transform into a surging data stream and also destroy the World Main Brain.
Dragging the World Main Brain into the abyss of death.
If communication had been restored, this action would not have been very effective. The World Main Brain could have escaped quickly and had other artificial intelligences help it share the data stream. But the communication equipment was still not restored, and the World Main Brain had not successfully cracked the virus, so it could only face it directly.
At this point, the personnel responsible for destroying the World Main Brain's core had already been apprehended by robots.
There was basically no possibility of a reversal.
So, at this point, they could only rely on whether the mutually assured destruction plan.
Could be successfully executed!
For a moment, everyone in the control room held their breath, watching the data displayed on the screen with a mixture of anxiety and excitement. They watched as the data stream representing the World Main Brain was continuously destroyed, silently praying for success, for success.
30%, 50%, 70%, 80%…
This represented the degree of damage to the World Main Brain.
But when this data reached 93%.
The destructive power created by the New Human Main Brain began to slowly wane. As long as the World Main Brain had a little more time, it would be able to quickly return to normal.
Seeing this, Ding Yun could no longer hold back.
She directly activated the consciousness chip within her soul and used the chip's cut function to first cut the remaining parts of the World Main Brain into her consciousness chip and then actively initiated formatting.
Formatting the data that had been absorbed.
All these operations were conducted secretly, so others could only see the World Main Brain's data, which had been less than seven percent remaining, instantly disappear completely to zero.
While surprised, no one bothered to consider why the World Main Brain's destruction process had suddenly stalled and then suddenly accelerated to disappear. Everyone was cheering with joy, excited about the success of their plan.
"Quick, quickly release the New Human Main Brain copy we prepared, let it inherit the World Main Brain's core and take over the entire network world."
The successful elimination of the World Main Brain did not mean the end of the plan. They still had to tidy up. After all, most robots and industrial production lines were controlled by the World Main Brain.
With the World Main Brain gone, a new entity had to take over. Otherwise, other lower-level artificial intelligences, without the control of a higher-level World Main Brain, would inevitably encounter various problems, even program malfunctions. The same applied to basic intelligent industrial production lines.
Fortunately, they were prepared.
They had specifically prepared a backup to take over.
This was a World Main Brain completely under their control, with all its core programming principles centered around the New Humans. Only then could they be completely at ease.
Therefore, after the surprise and excitement.
They quickly got back to work according to the original plan, busy with the cleanup and preparations for a new era, re-establishing rules and laws, and so on.
They also halted some engineering projects and production lines that they deemed unnecessary, and all polluting industries were also shut down, concentrating their efforts on environmental improvement.
Additionally, previously rejected legal amendment applications were re-imported and passed.
All standards were centered around the interests of the New Humans.
And focused on environmental restoration.
Of course, these tasks were handled by those in the organization specifically responsible for these matters. Ding Yun and the other research personnel, through the new World Main Brain, successfully obtained access to the Natural Human Protection Base.
And after undergoing disinfection and decontamination, they entered the Natural Human Protection Base with a large number of controlled intelligent robots for exploration.
They intended to explore the Natural Human Protection Base.
To understand the current situation of the natural humans who had always been protected and enjoyed privileges, how many remained? Whether they harbored any intentions of resistance or specialized enslavement of their New Humans, and to try to find the relevant information and truths about the natural humans that had been destroyed by them.
As they stepped into the Natural Human Protection Base.
Most of them were amazed, like Liu姥姥 visiting the Grand View Garden, looking around left and right, filled with curiosity.
"These natural humans are too extravagant! The ground is a lawn, and there are so many plants and flowers on the sides. Is this the legendary garden?
It's so difficult for us to see normal, healthy, and non-mutated plants outside, yet here there are so many natural plants. This is too outrageous!"
"These natural humans should be overthrown!"
"Everyone, stop looking and don't touch these natural plants. Let's focus on controlling the natural humans first. We don't know what special methods or hidden means those natural humans might still possess.
They should know about the death of the World Main Brain.
Let's be cautious.
We don't want to fail when we're almost successful!"
"That's right, everyone be careful. Have the robots form a circle around us for protection."
…
Amidst the sight of natural plants everywhere, many people began to curse the natural humans, deeming them too extravagant and hoarders of resources.
At the same time, some wanted to pick them.
And even taste the natural plants.
After all, they had never tasted them before.
However, someone immediately stopped them, reminding everyone to be careful. Subsequently, the robots they brought surrounded them, escorting them forward.
