Black Falcon-136 hopes Jiang Zhou can join the Icarus Liberation Front.
After getting Jiang Zhou familiar with some of the weapons he might use in the future, the "bottle cap eye" brother solemnly talked about this matter for no apparent reason.
According to the provisional platform of the Icarus Liberation Front, only one official member must make a recommendation and obtain the vote of the other three official members. After a simple oath-taking ceremony, any adult who is determined to overthrow the Olympian order and establish a new order, and whose mental index is normal and stable, can join the Icarus Liberation Front and fight for the freedom and dignity of all human souls. .
Of course, to register as a formal member, there is still a series of paperwork to be done. But in an emergency, this can all be simplified.
"So what do you think?"
136 asked Jiang Zhou with a serious expression.
You may not believe it, but in fact I already am...
Jiang Zhou thought.
Liao Qi, who went online as a "controllable element" of the Janus program, was originally a member of the Icarus Liberation Front.
Not long ago, he fought alongside several of you.
In fact, what Jiang Zhou wants to do next by controlling Liao Qi's body can be said to be continuing Icarus' struggle and battle.
Of course, it was impossible for him to say these words. Faced with the other party's warm invitation, Jiang Zhou pretended to hesitate for a few minutes, then pretended to be ignorant and nodded, indicating that he was still willing.
Of course, he is actually quite willing, and the reason why he is willing is very simple:
Firstly, after reading Liao Qi’s memories, he felt sincere admiration for the cause of the Icarus Liberation Front; secondly, in the plan of the Icarus Liberation Front’s platform, the organization ultimately wanted to overthrow The biggest enemy is the super corporate alliance called "Order of Olympus". The original initiator of this alliance is most likely his old employer, who gave his past-era scientific research achievements to the Olympus Group as his own.
Jiang Zhou had no reason not to contribute his own efforts to completely overthrow this alliance...even though he was now weak and the other party almost controlled the entire world.
Of course, in addition to this, there are some more practical and urgent reasons at the moment:
Soon, he and four other members of the Icarus Liberation Front will dive into the Abyss Dark Web. Becoming one of them and shortening the distance between you and these teammates will undoubtedly increase your future survival rate.
Furthermore, I can also ask these people about things about the Icarus Organization more naturally. In this way, when controlling Liao Qi's actions outside, he can also gain some advantages in intelligence.
"B6, this kind of thing is meaningless."
It was also at this time that Chinatsu Sakura, who was adjusting weapons on the side, raised her head after hearing their conversation. She glanced at Jiang Zhou first, then turned her gaze to 136 and said:
"Not to mention whether the organizational structure of the Icarus Liberation Front still exists after being attacked by Pluto Deep Submarine Company; nor to consider the probability that we will be able to escape from Tartarus in the future. Little...but you heard what Theseus said before. He is suffering from severe radiation sickness. Regardless of whether he can come back alive from the abyss and dark web, he only has a little more than a month to live. "
During the entire conversation, Qianxia Ying did not look at Jiang Zhou, but looked directly at 136's "bottle cap eyes" very seriously.
"So it doesn't make any sense whether he joins Icarus or not."
Finally, she concluded.
But in this regard, Black Falcon-136 "looked back" at Qianxia Sakura with a serious face, and said slowly:
"Chinatsu Sakura, every resistance is meaningful.
"At least for Theseus himself, whether he died as an innocent person involved in the company's conspiracy or as a warrior who resisted the company's order, the meanings of the two were very different. Besides, I owe him to keep him alive as much as possible. It was my idea to hide in that warehouse..."
136 said, opening a display light curtain in mid-air. Depicted above is 136’s own human body model. Jiang Zhou noticed that there were many references to prosthetics and implants on the model, which were marked with different colors and symbols.
136 continued while clicking on the pattern on the model:
"Previously, the person in charge of Deep Diving Chamber No. 3 has said that if they determine that we have the ability to descend deeper than "Depth 2" to perform the mission, we will be given a chance to use the company's in-house 'universal printer' to give ourselves The body has the opportunity to be strengthened by adding prosthetics and implants. And little brother Theseus also has the opportunity to undergo neural adjustment and transformation and become an adjuster like us."
Qianxia Ying frowned and said:
"Didn't I say it? Regardless of whether Theseus can come back alive from the abyss and dark web, he will have to suffer from radiation sickness... Wait a minute, B6, aren't you crazy again? Don't be so... Tell me, you want that thing..."
136 nodded, and he clicked on an implant logo in the pattern where his body modeled his head. A device installed in the orbitofrontal cortex, the size of a broad bean, the shape of a broad bean... in short, a device that looked like a metal broad bean was instantly enlarged.
Qianxia Ying held her breath, as if she was holding back from swearing.
"Pegasus - the previously seized Apollo biological brain implant, 'Depth 3' quality. The description says that after installation, it can automatically repair most brain damage, and I think it should also include the symptoms of radiation sickness. .Before, because my mental index was not stable, I never bound my mandala."
136 After finishing speaking, he didn’t care about the curse words Qianxia Ying would curse next. He turned to Jiang Zhou aside, looked at him seriously and said:
"However, the prosthetic body and implants in me are the property of the organization, so they can only be handed over to comrades who are also Ikaros. So survive, survive the first dive, and survive until we can conduct more updates. During the dangerous mission. I will transfer this transformation authority to you by then, and your illness will be cured. So...are you willing to join the Icarus Liberation Front?"
Knew it……
Looking at the other party's "eyes", Jiang Zhou couldn't help but sigh.
This old man named 136 has always been troubled by the fact that they involved him, an "innocent person".
Including taking care of himself all the time, patiently answering all his questions, including hoping that he could join Icarus, all in order to appease his guilt.
Faced with this feeling of guilt, Jiang Zhou felt very complicated at the moment.
It doesn't seem to be a problem to say that I was "innocent" and got involved. After all, just by closing his eyes, he traveled through a hundred years and appeared on the train being sent to Tartarus. Before he could figure out the situation, he was told that he was being treated as a rebel and his frontal lobe would be cut off. In the end, he used his terminal illness as a bargaining chip to get an opportunity to mine as a "mining card" to take the blame.
But to say that he was an "innocent person"...if Jiang Zhou revealed his identity as the "No. 1 Deep Diver" to them at this moment, and they really dared to believe it, he couldn't imagine what would happen.
Of course, no matter what, it is always a good thing to have hope of being cured of your terminal illness. Given such an opportunity, he would naturally not refuse it.
Therefore, Jiang Zhou took a deep breath and said:
"Of course, I do. I do, not just for the possibility of being rescued... Although I can't remember many things that happened in the past. But my intuition tells me that the world should not be what it is today. And for This, I am willing to fight with you.”
When Jiang Zhou said this, he did not look at 136, but at the other three Icarus members behind him, including Chinatsu Sakura.
According to Icarus's program, it is not enough to have a recommender. Three other formal members must vote by a show of hands. Therefore, what he just said was meant for a few of them.
Jiang Zhou, who has Liao Qi's memory and is familiar with the other party's character, naturally knows what words to say to impress them.
The two people except Chinatsu Sakura looked at each other, then shrugged and raised their hands in agreement.
Qianxia Ying was biting her lower lip at the moment and staring at 136.
Black Falcon-136's eyes turned from the raised hands of the other two people to Chinatsu Sakura who was glaring at him.
"So you really plan to give him the 'Depth 3' brain implant? You almost died because of it, don't you even remember it?"
"Chinatsu Sakura, what's your opinion?"
136 did not answer her question, but urged.
Chinatsu Sakura was choked by the other party's attitude. She took several deep breaths before calming down.
"You're such a fucking idiot!"
After speaking, she also raised her hand.
Black Falcon-136 nodded, and then looked at Jiang Zhou again.
"Then the provisional vote was unanimous. Theseus, please recite the oath with me - I swear that I volunteer to join the Icarus Liberation Front."
Jiang Zhou took a deep breath and read:
"I volunteered for the Icarus Liberation Front."
…………
"...From the depths of the Abyss Dark Web to the edge of basic reality, I am willing to fight for the continuation of the fire of all metahuman intelligent life and the freedom of the soul. I swear by this, I will not rest until death."
After reading the last sentence, Zhu Lin put down his hand on his chest, looked at the blurry man on the other side of the holographic projection, and asked carefully:
"Is it enough to finish reciting this oath?"
"That's enough. You are now a member of the Icarus Liberation Front. Congratulations."
The blurry man at the end of the screen said and clapped his hands for him.
Seeing this, Zhu Lin immediately agreed, stretched out his hand and applauded himself, and then smiled flatteringly and said:
"In other words, after restarting Icarus's 'universal printer', I will also have permission to use it? Sir, you don't know how much business a AD model universal printer can bring ...Your organization, ah no, our organization has been too conservative in its use in the past.
"Those technical drawings that the Abyss Wanderers dug up from the Abyss Dark Web, as well as the authority to transform prosthetics, can only be implemented through these things. Only those big companies have the financial resources and manpower to go Cracking the technology to build an industrial line..."
"With your current contribution to the organization, you are far from having access to a universal printer."
The man on the other side of the holographic projection interrupted Zhu Lin's chatter with a sharp, processed voice, and the latter immediately fell silent.
After a long while, the other party continued:
"But you are only half right about your feeling that we were too conservative in the past. The previous Icarus was too conservative where it should be radical, but where it should be conservative, it was more radical than anyone else... Now After encountering such a change, it should also change..."
The man in the projection seemed to be deep in thought when he said this.
"Yes, yes, you are absolutely right! How can there be such a poor organization with a multi-purpose printer? Moreover, what age is this? Before installing prosthetics and implants, traditional mental index tests are required."
Seeing this, Zhu Lin nodded his head like a pound of garlic.
"meet……"
His thoughts were interrupted by such an interruption, and the man in the projection turned his attention to Zhu Lin again.
"I understand your enthusiasm for making money, but I don't need to remind you again - I don't have the reset key to start that universal printer. If you really want to start your own If it’s business, you should get that memory back as soon as possible.”
Zhu Lin smiled confidently upon hearing this.
"Don't worry, the street mercenary 'Old Snake' I sent has never failed in this job. He is just a native without any transformation. To him, it is just a sprinkle of water."
"I hope things go as smoothly as you said, otherwise..."
Otherwise, the man didn't finish what he said. The remote call projection was hung up.
Only then did Zhu Lin realize that he was covered in cold sweat on his back.
"TMD, you're so awesome, you're just a gutter rat who was driven around by the company."
He cursed under his breath.
If it weren't for the "universal printer", he wouldn't have deigned to join the "Icarus Liberation Front".
And liberate the souls of all metahuman intelligent life?
This makes me laugh to death. Is the super-artificial intelligence "Janus" considered to be a pan-human intelligent life? Does He need you ants to liberate him?
funny.
After cursing a few more times, Zhu Lin inserted a freshly opened pack of "pink" into the socket on his occipital bone. Feeling the waves of dopamine stimulation in his brain, Zhu Lin's mood completely improved.
After I get the memory that can restart Icarus's universal printer, you will no longer have the initiative.
Relaxing all over, Zhu Lin thought to himself as he slumped in his seat.
Isn't that guy just relying on being a "Depth 2" adjuster?
Do you think that as long as I reveal a little bit of news that I have the permission to restart the "Universal Printer", how many adjusters in the entire Nord Resettlement Area will be willing to kill people? How many gangs are willing to cooperate with me?
It's really pitiful, because they are members of the organization who have also sworn the same oath, and they don't even dare to face it personally. You also have to rely on a middleman like yourself to hire street mercenaries and disguise it as an accident.
Well, if it wasn't like this, how could I get such a good opportunity?
Zhu Lin, who was paralyzed in the chair, had a silly smile on his face under the influence of "pink".
As the saying goes, good things come in pairs, and at this time, a message came in.
Caller: Old Snake
Zhu Lin quickly got through.
"How's it going? Did you get the stuff?"
"Of course, simple work."
The other party replied angrily.
"That means using the old method to inspect goods? I'll give you an additional 30% of the reward this time!"
I don't know if it was the good news or the effect of "pink", but Zhu Lin felt that he was in a good mood.
"No, this time I want to come and deliver the goods in person, and we can also have a drink together."
The old snake on the other end of the phone said this.
