Twenty-five minutes later, Chen Feng broke through the magma that had reunited.

He passed through the earth's crust, the upper mantle composed of partial melt, the lower mantle composed of liquid and solid materials, the outer core composed of liquid materials, and the transition layer composed of solid and liquid materials, and finally arrived at the iron-nickel core, which is the core of the earth.

The pressure at the center of the Earth's core is as high as 3.5 million atmospheres, and the temperature is as high as 6,000 degrees Celsius.

Even with the obstruction of the outer three-force shield of the Ultimate Eagle Strike Armor and the inner layer of mechanical and biological fusion structure armor, Chen Feng could feel the ubiquitous high heat as if it was roasting him to death.

If he could, he wouldn't want to stay here for a minute longer.

His Eagle Strike Armor originally had about 35% of its energy remaining, but since he arrived at the Earth's core, even if he did nothing, the reserve energy began to drop at a rate of 0.01% per second.

This means that he can only stay here for 1500 seconds at most. If he still wants to live, he has to use the remaining 2000 seconds to return to the ground.

Otherwise, we would plunge headlong into the magma on the way back, and even the galactic humans would not be able to survive.

The situation is bad, but there is good news that is not good news.

Finding Lei's core was easier than he thought.

Because...the entire earth's core is composed of iron-nickel alloy!

When he pushed aside the extremely viscous underground solid-liquid mixture bit by bit and saw the metal structure in front of him, he was stunned.

Chen Feng didn't even need to turn on the search function. The high-temperature melted objects pushed to both sides by the three-force shield were already glowing.

Under the huge pressure, the surface of the iron-nickel alloy with extremely high melting point was densely covered with circuit structures that were so complex that it made him dizzy at a glance.

The background plate of the circuit structure is a dark iron-nickel alloy, and the circuit itself is outlined in an unknown silver alloy.

The circuit is now emitting a faint blue light, indicating that there is a huge flow of electrons circulating at high speed inside.

Chen Feng could not imagine how many things Lei had quietly done underground in the past hundred years.

Because the three-force shield opened up the solid-liquid mixture, the pressure in the part covered by his shield suddenly dropped.

The iron-nickel alloy seems to be melting.

He moved to the side again.

He moved a full five meters, and along the way he could still see the same complex circuit structure on the black alloy surface as elsewhere.

He originally thought that it would take him a long time to explore before he could see the true form of "Lei".

But things turned out easier than he thought.

As if it had sensed his arrival, a square hole two meters long and one meter wide suddenly opened in the alloy in front of him.

Looking inside from here, there is a straight passage leading to the inner level.

The walls of the passage were emitting a gleaming light, as if someone was deliberately lighting the way for him.

Chen Feng hesitated for a second and drifted forward.

The closer you get to the center of the earth, the closer your experience of gravity is to space.

After he floated into the passage for about a few meters, the iron-nickel alloy behind him closed again on its own, as if it had never been opened from here.

Chen Feng took a deep breath and thought, Lei must have guessed the purpose of his visit.

But she took the initiative to put herself in. She must have absolute confidence.

The Eagle Strike Armor has already given feedback on its detection of the external environment.

The temperature is 22 degrees Celsius, and the air composition is exactly the same as the atmosphere outside!

The terrifying pressure and high temperature are gone.

Chen Feng was slightly surprised again. He didn't know if this environment was created temporarily by Lei, or if it had always been like this here.

If it's the latter, what's her purpose?

A new idea gradually emerged in his mind.

Is she simulating a comfortable living environment for humans?

Is her obsession with becoming a human so strong?

Does this conform to the logic of mechanical life?

Obviously not.

Compared with the perfect mechanical life conceived by Chen Feng and Dong Shan, Lei's birth process was different after all.

Her birth violated the essential principles of AI. The formation of pseudo-personality originated from the emotions revealed in Zhong Lei's works, and the underlying logical structure even copied Zhong Lei's DNA.

Human civilization is very abnormal now, and Lei, as a product of abnormal intelligent civilization, is also abnormal.

In order to save some energy, Chen Feng simply removed the external protection of the Eagle Strike Armor, retaining only the most basic driving force and began to rush forward quickly.

Three minutes later, Chen Feng stayed in a large circular room.

The radius of the large circular room is about three hundred meters.

On the walls of the room, there are countless thick or thin plasmas spreading towards the center, converging on a bright and dazzling light group.

These plasmas sometimes twist and tremble, but they never collide with each other.

Chen Feng, who already has a junior high school diploma, recognizes these so-called plasmas.

The essence of plasma is not all composed of electric currents. Most of them are visual quantum data flows. Only the two thick bright yellow plasmas at the top and bottom are the real energy supply currents.

The ball of light that is about three meters in the center of the circle should be Lei's true body.

At the same time, the location of the center of the circle should also be the absolute center of gravity of the earth.

Really good at choosing a place to stay.

This may be the legendary super mansion with an exclusive radius of 6,371 kilometers and a panoramic spherical skylight.

Chen Feng cautiously continued to float forward, and the cold hairs on his body stood on end due to being stimulated by the extremely high-voltage static electricity nearby.

"Chen Feng, you'd better put on your equipment again and switch to the insulation protection mode. Even if you are a galactic human, you cannot withstand such an electric shock."

Lei's voice suddenly sounded in Chen Feng's mind.

The distance was too close, and Lei was able to directly transmit messages to him by interfering with his brain waves.

Her voice was still full of emotion, full of concern for Chen Feng's safety.

Chen Feng did as he was told.

Finally, he stopped three meters in front of the light group.

The particle engine on his shoulder was occasionally spraying medium particle streams to both sides.

There was an invisible subtle force that was slowly pushing him forward, but it was not some mysterious power of telepathy, it was purely caused by the slight imbalance of gravity distribution on his body.

"Aren't you scared?"

Lei asked again.

Chen Feng shook his head, "If you're afraid I won't come. Aren't you afraid? Create opportunities for me."

"It's your opportunity, and it's also my opportunity."

There was an inexplicable arrogance and confidence in Lei's voice.

Along with her words, the shape of the light group gradually changed and turned into a human form.

In the end, an image of a woman was formed, with every inch of her body shrouded in a faint glow.

Zhong Lei.

Digitalized Zhong Lei.

She looked bright, her features were picturesque, her eyes were lively, and her long hair was flowing.

She looked like a fairy on earth, but it made Chen Feng's hair stand on end.

So similar.

It's really similar.

But the more this happened, the more Chen Feng could understand her obsession.

Perhaps, becoming another person and "reviving" is the real driving force that supports Lei to continue to seize more resources, develop and advance technology, and analyze and study human beings.

Fighting against the invaders and surviving under the threat of the invaders is only her second motivation.

"Using your human aesthetic judgment, do I look good?"

Lei turned around slightly and let out a silvery laugh like a cute little girl.

This time she no longer used brainwave sound transmission. It was as if her vocal cords were actually vibrating, causing the air to tremble and transmitting sound waves.

Ordinary people would definitely not be able to tell, but Chen Feng relied on his keen observation skills as a galactic human to see a faint flash of electricity at the location of her vocal cords in her throat at the moment she spoke.

God knows how many tiny arcs she controlled to penetrate the air at this moment to simulate a voice so similar to Zhong Lei's.

Seeing her trying her best to make every smile look real, Chen Feng felt an inexplicable feeling of compassion deep in his heart.

But he also thought of all the people who had sacrificed their lives in the Hundred Years' War, as well as all the comrades who had sacrificed and were still sacrificing for him.

His compassion disappeared in an instant, leaving only vigilance and a hint of sympathy.
