But as you can see,
I am no longer human.

Through me,
the great unity of the Phalanx

living things of value,
and we will prosper.

cannot assimilate

this is the final solution
to the scourge
of genetic mutation!

of the entire human race?

No, the assimilation
of all organic life,

at best,

in inferior mutant strains.

exact copies of itself,
a digital system.

197

Precisely. Random errors
are eliminated.

the universe will be cleansed.
