After the mutation, Sato hovered in the air, his body constantly shifting, as if unable to settle into any fixed form. Living metal and energy flowed across his surface, forming bizarre symbols.
The voice of the artificial intelligence carried a hint of fear, exactly as recorded.
"What record?" I asked.
"Watch closely," Sato's voice was completely inhuman, "and witness true power."
He raised his hand, and an energy shockwave instantly swept across the entire hall. Everyone was knocked down by this force, and even the building's structure trembled.
At that moment, a strong reaction surged from the virus program within me. A series of images flashed through my mind: I saw a disaster from ancient times, a species that lost control due to rapid evolution, ultimately transforming into beings similar to Sato.
"This is what you fear," I said to the artificial intelligence. "Is this the kind of mutant that caused destruction back then?"
"Yes," the artificial intelligence replied. "They believed they had mastered the power of evolution, but in the end, they were consumed by it. After losing their humanity, they began to devour each other in a struggle for stronger genes. We call them World Eaters."
"Interesting terminology," Sato emitted a metallic laugh. "But you are correct; I can feel this boundless power within me. Now, let me demonstrate."
His body suddenly expanded and split into three identical forms, each radiating powerful energy waves.
"He duplicated himself!" Li Yang shouted.
"No," I observed through my special vision; it was the same consciousness jumping between different forms. He was attempting to master multiple existences.
Just then, I noticed a change in the Taiji pattern on the pyramid device. The previously balanced energies began to flow in a specific direction.
Of course, Stevens seemed to realize something: the Tree of Life not only recorded the paths of evolution but also how to counter such mutations!
Revisiting the life evolution chart, I suddenly discovered a key detail: next to every possible evolutionary branch was marked a reverse pathway. These pathways connected to form a reversal program.
"I see," I said, "the true purpose of the virus program is not to promote evolution but to serve as a balancing mechanism. When a species' evolution spirals out of control, it can revert this mutation back to a stable state!"
"Naive," Sato's three forms spoke simultaneously. "Do you think this primitive program can stop true evolution?"
His forms began another round of transformation, this time merging into a more powerful entity. An energy storm raged through the hall, causing all equipment to collapse under its force.
But at that moment, I felt that the virus program within me had found some resonance. Following this feeling, I realized others carrying it had similar reactions.
"Hurry!" I urged. "We must form a complete energy circuit—just like in Cairo—using the principle of mutual generation and restraint among the five elements!"
Everyone sprang into action immediately. We positioned ourselves at the five Directions of the pyramid device and let our internal virus programs operate in a specific sequence.
Gradually, a pentagram formation made entirely of pure energy appeared on the ground. Above us, the Taiji pattern began to rotate and projected a beam of light.
"Look at that light!" I pointed at a detail in the projection; it was not just energy but some ancient immune mechanism!
An astonishing truth emerged: the entire complex was a massive immune system designed specifically to combat this uncontrollable mutation. The viral program within our bodies was, in fact, the activation key for this system.
But Sato was clearly aware of this as well. His form suddenly coalesced, preparing to launch a final attack.
"It’s over," he said. "Let’s see which is stronger: your immune system or my evolution!"
The two forces collided in the air. Thus began the ultimate showdown that would determine the fate of human evolution.
