Chapter 490: Immortality for No One

The director had fed a great deal of information to Adam, both personally and through Raven, and after that, he had created the Chaos Raisers to carry out random terrorist attacks in order to disrupt the current world order.

His objective was to completely overthrow the societal hierarchy and drag the high and mighty immortals down from their thrones.

"If they had successfully implemented their Digital Life project and achieved digital immortality in the Metaverse, then it would\'ve been impossible for the world to change. All human creativity would\'ve been destroyed, and ultimately, the world would\'ve become one that was filled with brainless idiots ruled over by more brainless idiots."

Adam was very much in agreement with the director\'s statement.

Those who were pursuing immortality used tittytainment to numb the general public while also increasing the barrier to entry for education, thereby ensuring that the people remained ignorant and were unable to climb up the social ladder. In doing so, they were trying to create a world in which it was impossible for them to be overthrown from their lofty positions.

However, just as A said, this ploy would severely limit human creativity, and ultimately, the entire world would be ruled over by ignorant individuals. Perhaps they would even develop medication to mentally handicap people in order to ensure that they could eternally reign supreme at the top.

This would ultimately result in the destruction of the entire human race, and perhaps the director\'s methods weren\'t to be condoned, but Adam did agree with his reasoning.

"So why have you appeared here?"

Thanks to Angel\'s domain, no one on the outside could see or hear their conversation.

The director was looking at Adam with a meaningful expression as he said, "The key that you\'ve obtained can do more than just unlock the new generation for the Metaverse, it can also allow you to control boundless computing power and resources. Use it well, and do not be blinded by power. Fulfill your promise to the people and make your dream a reality."

It sounded as if the director were giving his final words, and Adam had no idea what his intentions were. He was just about to ask more questions when the director\'s body suddenly disintegrated into black mist that flowed toward the scale.

To his surprise, the black mist distributed itself evenly across the two sides of the scale, and it remained in perfect balance.

How is that possible? He did so many terrible things, yet his good and evil are equal?

Adam couldn\'t help but wonder if the scale had malfunctioned.

However, that was clearly not the case, and a brand new concept suddenly occurred to Adam. At times, a great evil could also be a great good. The scale wasn\'t just able to weigh a person\'s ordinary actions, it could also weigh the wider societal impact of their actions.

As long as the judging criteria was altered, any outcome could be reached. The key lied in how one set out their underlying principles, and that was the final lesson the director had prepared for Adam.

Perhaps he had disappeared, perhaps he still existed, but in a different form. In any case, Adam was caught completely off guard and could only watch the director vanish into nothingness, following which he withdrew Angel, and the hall returned to its original appearance.

He raised a hand, and the key on top of the pagoda fell into his grasp on its own. Through it, he gained the ability to see through the entire digital world, but he was only able to observe without being able to alter anything at will.

This was a privilege granted to him by A, but he wasn\'t given direct ownership of the Metaverse. In the underlying logic of the Metaverse, there was code that prevented ownership of the Metaverse from being transferred. This was something that couldn\'t be overridden, and Madam Tree and Mr. One were only willing to let Adam be as they were aware of this.

However, they were wrong. Adam never wanted unlimited power and privileges. Instead, he only wanted the privilege of supervision as that was going to be an important tool for his upcoming operations.

The battle had concluded, and the Gaia Organization\'s plan for world domination had been foiled.

The Spark Tower plan was still ongoing, and it could no longer be stopped. It was going to completely alter the state of the world\'s internet and would usher in the age of psychic and digital integration.

After returning to the real world, Adam was greeted by raucous cheers and congratulations at the election center.

Even his main competitor, Clyde, who was running for the election on behalf of the Dataist Union, had visited him in person and declared to the media that he was pulling out of the election.

"I\'m very honored to be able to be living in the same era as you and to have witnessed everything you\'ve done for the general public. You\'ve followed through on all of your promises, and now, I\'ve also followed through on mine."

Clyde was sparing no praise for Adam, and he didn\'t care if his actions would cause any trouble for himself.

Adam responded in a very humble manner.

"There are still many things that I need to work on, and there will be countless more obstacles and perils that I\'ll have to face in the future, but I firmly believe that I\'ll be able to overcome them. The people will ultimately emerge victorious, and a future of peace and justice will surely arrive."

"I have full trust in your ability to succeed in this endeavor," Clyde replied. "I will be taking on a role in the city council to supervise you during your term as mayor. If you deviate from your promises at all, I won\'t hold back."

"Please make sure to hold me accountable."

The two of them shook hands before parting ways.

At this point, Adam had already won the election, but he didn\'t hold any celebration. Instead, the first thing that he did was file for a lawsuit against the Gaia Organization before providing the latest evidence he had gathered to the general public.

During his final battle against Madam Tree, it seemed that he had destroyed the first batch of digitized humans to put them out of their suffering and eliminate all of A\'s problems, but the relevant data had been preserved.

Now, he was releasing everything for the world to see. The tens of thousands of human experimentation cases amounted to an unprecedentedly heinous crime against humanity.

The evidence was irrefutable, and no matter how the Gaia Organization tried to stall for time, they were inevitably going to be brought down by the lawsuit filed against them. A stock market crash was imminent, and it was going to destroy the current industrial structure to shake up the entire social hierarchy.

Countless wealthy figures in the world pounced eagerly onto this crisis, splitting this unprecedentedly massive cake among themselves, and Adam\'s support reached an all-time high, allowing him to win the election by a landslide vote.

.

The first thing that he did after being elected was to establish the "Ant-immortality Act".

The act enforced strict regulations over psychic body digitization technology and strongly emphasized the fundamental differences between digital life and organic life.

Anyone that abandoned their physical body would\'ve abandoned all of their human rights by default, and no one was allowed to exert influence in the power structures of both the real world and the digital world at once.

The people had the right to decide to integrate their psyche into the digital world, but all of their actions were going to be supervised, and those who believed that they could do whatever they pleased in both worlds just because they had attained superpowers through computing power were in for a rude awakening.

The rules of the new era were going to be decided by the people, and anyone who held ambitions of eternally ruling over the world were going to be completely swept into the dump.

With all of the citizens of Sandrise City acting as witnesses, Adam personally pressed the button on the incinerator to destroy all data related to immortality research.

Only by restoring the world to its natural roots could the light of human civilization shine for all of eternity.
