Chapter 480: Beginning of the End

The doubts aimed at the Gaia Oraganization's Digital Life project had been ongoing ever since the day they first arose.

Many experts and leading figures in the technology sector had analyzed the situation from variuos different perspectives, producing many damning conclusions, but no one was able to stop the project from continuing to advance.

It had started as a project that was filled with flaws and holes, but it eventually created the first theoretically successful electronic entity. It had withstood an immense amount of controversy and pressure before the Gaia Organization ultimately came out on top, emerging victorious over all of the project's detractors.

The main reason for this was the immense amount of support behind the project. None of the wealthy and powerful figures of the world wanted to die. They wanted to always be able to savor the pleasure of reigning supreme over others and ruling over the world.

However, blank slate technology was maturing very slowly, and there were many variables that couldn't be controlled, so demand always severely outweighed supply.

In contrast, digital life was far simpler and more direct. All it needed was limitless computing power, and for the wealthiest individuals in the world, purchasing a supercomputer cluster wasn't too steep a price to pay. Furthermore, it could be treated as an investment into a capital asset, and they could secure the required funds through fundraising projects and by releasing more stocks, so they didn't have to spend a single cent of their own money.

Hence, even though there had been countless victims over the past few decades demanding justice and compensation, the Digital Life project only continued to go from strength to strength.

As a result, even though countless people across the world had seen the evidence provided by Adam, they were still feeling rather skeptical, wondering if this was just a political maneuver to garner more support.

People were always going to cling to what they believed, even if it was an illusion. As long as it could provide them a sense of consolation, they were willing to turn a blind eye to just about anything.

It was a very pitiful state of affairs, but reality, nonetheless.

Unless some type of revolution took place, everyone would continue to remain skeptical no matter how much evidence Adam presented to them, and getting them to unite to collectively oppose the powers that be was nothing more than a pipe dream.

However, with the release of this footage, everyone was forced to see the truth behind the Digital Life project, a truth that they had already known all along, but at this moment, they were finally forced to confront it.

Everyone suddenly came to a massive realization, which was that the host platform for global information dissemination had gone rogue. This indicated that someone had to have launched an effective attack to breach the fortress that was the Gaia Organization, thereby bringing about the precursor of a revolution.

Everyone immediately thought of a single person: Adam!

At the election center and the special psychic police headquarters, everyone was staring at Adam with stunned expressions, and there were countless pairs of eyes fixed on him and his projections.

Adam was just as astonished himself. He wasn't responsible for this, but no one would believe that, considering he had only just warned everyone about the impending changes.

In the face of Cowboy and May's questions, he was at a complete loss for how to respond, but one thing was for certain in his mind: the time for a worldwide revolution had come.

"Everyone, prepare for battle!"

Adam called upon everyone that he could while also trying to find the safest place for himself.

Meanwhile, in the top-secret conference venue in the Metaverse.

Due to the importance of the project that was taking place, all contact with the outside world had been severed, so none of the people inside had no idea what was happening in the real world.

These elite figures at the top of the world weren't content with just attaining immortality. The rise of adapters had shown them that their position in the world could still be threatened.

Madam Tree, Mr. One, the pawn shop, the director of Shadow City... All of them posed very real threats to their control over the world, and it was entirely possible that these adapters could overthrow them.

They wanted to attain the same power, but natural adapters were extremely rare, and it was too difficult to create artificial ones, and that was why they had turned to the Alpha God project.

If they could convert computing power into combat prowess, then their limitless computing power would equate to limitless power and combat prowess! This was the glorious outcome that they had achieved after investing an astronomical amount of resources into this project over the past few decades.

A representative had been chosen to be the first person to be granted this power. He suppressed his own excitement as he connected his fragile psyche with the electronic memory body at the risk of experiencing heart failure, and after a few seconds of dizziness, he raised his right hand in a shaky manner. A bolt of dazzling lightning rose up into the air from his hand in front of all of the eager eyes in the room, instantly illuminating the darkness.

"It worked!"

One of the technicians yelled in excitement. The data on the virtual screen in front of him indicated that he had already transferred his consciousness completely into the supercomputer cluster. In the real world, the life support system had already been unplugged, so his physical body was about to die, but he didn't feel any discomfort at all. It was as if he had been born in the electronic world in the first place, and he had been granted superpowers to boot.

He had previously only been able to live in a coffin-like life support pod, yet now, he had attained a supercomputer cluster as his new body, as well as the psychic battle capabilities of adapters. He could even continue to elevate himself and evolve, and this was truly a stunning miracle.

Another wave of cheers swept through the entire venue, and they were all eager to release this technology to the world, but of course, as the rulers of this world, they were going to access thsi technology before everyone else.

Only after they had attained unassailable power could they gradually release technology, creating a brand new life form hierarchy that would be the basis of their world domination.

However, prior to that, they had to elevate the entirety of the current Metaverse using the Alpha God AI, and that was going to take a very long time. Furthermore, there were inevitably going to be some internet signal problems and coding bugs along the way, but the lead technicians of the Gaia Organization had assured everyone that everything was under control.

However, after the restrictions in the venue were disabled and everyone was reconnected to the outside world, they were immediately greeted by an extremely concerning influx of information.

All of the powerful figures in the room fell silent for a moment, then flew into a collective thunderous rage.

"How did this happen? Weren't we supposed to take things slowly?"

"Are you sure that there aren't any issues with the key and the Alpha God AI? If that really is the case, then what's all of this?"

Inside the vast digital world of the Metaverse, the terminals of hundreds of millions of normal users were providing digital life and psychic integration technology upgrades.

With each person that was successfully awakened, more of the supercomputer cluster resource, of which there was a dire shortage, would be taken.

The reason why the Gaia Organization had suffered an internal storage crisis, thereby forcing them to compress the digital data of normal users, was because they couldn't' keep up with the hardware demands. Furthermore, they had never planned to satisfy the needs of all of the normal users anyway as those who were in power were the top priority.

Madam Tree exchanged a glance with all of the powerful figures around her, then immediately made a decision.

"Activate the Spark Tower!"
