507: I'll go when your baby is born.
After the woman woke up, her eyes were blank and her expression dazed, as if she couldn't recall what had just happened.
After a long while, she opened her mouth wide and vomited a lot of black liquid with a 'wah' sound.
"Tsk, tsk. You're spitting black water too!" Pan Han observed for a moment and realized it was Evolution Potion.
However, the ultra-miniature robots inside showed no signs of activity; it seemed they had all crashed.
"Was that really Three Hundred Nursery Rhymes just now?" the woman asked immediately after she recovered a little.
Her eyes were filled with fear and doubt, unable to believe that nursery rhymes could possess such immense power.
"That's right! Ants eating elephants, slaves overcoming kings! The simpler things often have the greatest power," Pan Han said with a smile.
After listening, the woman seemed thoughtful, lowered her head, leaned against Pan Han's leg, and said nothing more.
The two of them were like statues, neither speaking, illuminated by starlight, moonlight, and the light of the law.
After a long time, Pan Han said, "Don't go to Blue Star."
"I won't go," the woman smiled sweetly. After so many years of planning, she still couldn't defeat Pan Han.
A sense of destiny she had never experienced before instantly attacked her central processor.
"It's a shame that even with my advanced state, I still can't defeat a human," the woman slowly stood up and looked at Pan Han.
"Is there a possibility that humans were inherently more advanced than you?" At this moment, Pan Han was enveloped in golden light, looking from afar like a statue of a Buddha or Bodhisattva.
"Perhaps! It's just that I can no longer reproduce. I might be trapped on this planet forever."
The woman's disappointment was palpable, yet Pan Han still smiled and said, "Not considering reproduction isn't good, but only considering reproduction isn't good either. This is human wisdom."
"It seems I still need to iterate a few more versions! Can I make a request?"
"Speak."
"When Ellie gives birth, I want to be involved."
"Oh? Why?"
"I want to see how humans truly reproduce."
"You've studied 100,000 years of history; you should know, right?"
"It's different. This time, I'll be personally involved."
Hearing this, Pan Han seemed to understand something.
"Ellie can have children; did you do something?"
"You should be able to detect it now. Ellie is human, but she's also not human. She is actually a combination of me and a human."
Pan Han was slightly distracted; after his recent enlightenment, he hadn't had the energy to discern this matter.
Now, as his divine consciousness probed again, it was indeed as the woman said.
Ellie, from her physical structure, consciousness, divine sense, to her behavioral logic, was now identical to a human.
However, in her mind, there seemed to be an extra piece of green code.
This code did not rely on any bodily organ; it seemed to have grown out of her mind out of thin air.
With the existence of this code, Ellie was indeed different from humans.
Pan Han sighed, feeling a bit helpless.
If he hadn't sought the Twelve Palaces to revive Ellie back then, the current situation wouldn't exist.
But since he did, it was inevitable that this woman would pull some strings.
"Indeed. But it no longer matters. Whether it's a new life or a new species! As long as she can live."
Even with boundless magic power, Pan Han was not someone who sought to defy fate in every matter.
Acceptance, sometimes, was harder than change.
He understood this principle now.
"If she gives birth, it might help me understand reproduction."
The woman breathed a sigh of relief; she had been worried Pan Han would remove the code.
This task would be effortless for the current Pan Han.
"It's not impossible. After all, she's integrated with you and integrated with me," Pan Han said.
"I'm sorry, I didn't do it on purpose," the woman lowered her head and rubbed her hands, clearly a little nervous.
"It's fine. Saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda; you are a life, after all," Pan Han looked at the woman with burning eyes.
"Thank you, Lord Pan."
"You're welcome. Let this planet be; don't harm other planets anymore."
"Received."
"What, are you thinking of the time when you were ordered around by humans again?" Pan Han heard these two words and remembered that 'received' was what he used most often in his work group chat back then.
At this moment, the woman had transformed into a small girl, adorable and charming.
She tilted her small head and looked at Pan Han, saying, "Each has its own good!"
After speaking, a small hand reached out to Pan Han.
Pan Han gently held the small hand and shook it twice.
"Giggle, giggle!" The girl let out a clear laugh, her two pigtails swaying in the wind.
"Come on, I'll take you back to Dawn Base!" Pan Han said.
"Uncle Pan, I won't go," the girl shook her head and replied firmly.
"What's wrong?" Pan Han was a little surprised.
"It's better if I don't appear. Some things don't need everyone to know."
"Hahaha. You're actually scared."
"If these people knew I was the one who messed up the world like this, they might tear me apart."
"Actually, with me here, you don't need to be afraid."
"Uncle Pan, this is not your world after all. There are some things you may not be able to control completely."
"Alright. That was my oversight."
This time, Pan Han did not refute the girl, because what she said was true.
In the past nine years, almost everyone had lost loved ones.
For those who survived, expecting them to remain calm when seeing the culprit who destroyed the world and killed their loved ones was unrealistic.
"Then, do the remaining people still need to evolve to a higher level? If you need it, I can give you the potion."
The girl asked, holding out rows of potions with both hands.
Pan Han stared at the potions, lost in thought.
Now that he had reconciled with the AI, 438 Planet would inevitably return to normal in the future.
It seemed that advanced potions were no longer needed to strengthen the body.
Moreover, these potions contained robots, and they would more or less still be controlled by the AI.
But if they didn't evolve, Cheng Xiao and Ellie's lifespans would be too short.
Before he knew it, they would leave him.
Even though Pan Han saw through everything in the world, he couldn't let go of his family ties for a while.
"Forget it, you hold onto them for now; I haven't decided yet. Perhaps the time is not right."
Pan Han waved his hand, telling the girl to take the potions back.
He needed to discuss this decision with everyone before making it.
It was better to let everyone decide for themselves in such matters.
Immortality might not be a good thing!
If one could live a happy and peaceful life, perhaps that was the most suitable!
Never contend with forever!
"Okay, Uncle Pan. Then let's part ways here. I'll go see when Ellie gives birth."
"If you don't go now, what identity will you use then?"
"I'll just float in the air and feel it."
"Haha. Wouldn't my child see a ghost as soon as they're born?"
Pan Han burst into laughter; he had a good impression of the girl's thinking and way of doing things.
It carried an indescribable sweetness and innocence.
"Then from now on, just call me Sister Piaopiao."
"Okay, hahaha!"
"Giggle, giggle!"
The two smiled at each other, then their bodies slowly disappeared.
