"You mean...the lunar eclipse incident ten years ago?"
After hearing the words "Diana Lunar Development" and "Hecate", Aconitum-1 asked carefully.
Diana Lunar Development Company is one of the fourteen super enterprises under the "Order of Olympus". Its main business is lunar tourism and immigration, space adaptive genetic adjustment, and the export of helium-3.
In the past, the Diana Lunar Development Company, which controlled the entire moon, relied on their nearly invincible earth-lunar orbital fleet to sit firmly in the first echelon of the Olympus Order.
However, ten years ago, a disaster called the "Eclipse Incident" almost caused the company to be expelled from the Order of Olympus.
At that time, a behemoth from the depths of the Abyss Dark Web surfaced, broke through the Styx Firewall, and entered the World Wide Web through the α-level deep-diving interface of Diana Lunar Development Company.
Although it only stayed on the World Wide Web for five minutes, its existence directly destroyed half of Diana's internal network, paralyzed one-third of the Earth-lunar orbiting fleet, and destroyed the largest colony on the moon, "Golden Branch City". ”, completely losing contact with the outside world within twenty-four hours.
Judging from the World Wide Web star map, the area symbolizing Diana at that time became a void - hence the name of the lunar eclipse event.
The aftermath of this floating incident caused other companies to frantically annex the assets and markets of Diana's lunar development on Earth.
If the Jupiter Group had not finally sent special envoys to the six companies involved in the war to urge a ceasefire, and finally convened the Olympus Conference for judgment, the Fourth Cyber War would have almost broken out that year.
In addition, the company called Hell Diving back then also took advantage of this chaotic opportunity to fully master the α-level deep diving interface in Tartarus. As a result, he was given the title "Pluto" and became a new member of the "Order of Olympus".
Diana is the moon goddess in Roman mythology. Therefore, the unknown existence that ascended that year was named "Hecate" - the goddess symbolizing the dark moon.
"Since there is a record of floating once, it is not surprising that it will float again."
He came to a conclusion, but the expression on Prison D's face did not relax at all.
It can be said that Pluto's ability to become a member of the Order of Olympus was largely due to the "Goddess of the Dark Moon". Therefore, they pay more attention to darknet security precautions than anyone else.
According to the investigation team dispatched afterwards, they found many traces of suspected "Hecate" activities through data analysis of the KZ quadrant. Considering that the other party had a "history" of directly ascending to the surface and intending to enter the basic reality in the past, it is now basically certain who was the initiator of the previous crisis.
"Next, our focus will be on improving the countermeasures for "a type of abyssal invasion." "
Return that report to Wutou-1, Prison D said.
Obviously, as Pluto's "watchdogs", what they need to do next is to study the nature of the opponent and then construct a targeted defense plan.
However, after Wutou-1 subconsciously took over the report, he still asked without giving up:
"What about the native codenamed "Theseus"? There are so many doubts about him..."
"His mental index is firm and the hongpon brain area is developed."
Prison D interrupted:
"In fact, these two are doubtful points about him, or talents. Of course, I have to say that his talents are extremely amazing. But the rest of the things in your report are still mixed with too many personal emotional factors. Now - you should really see how ridiculous some of your conjectures are."
"but……"
Aconitum-1 wanted to say something more, but this time, the Cerberus supervisor finally showed an impatient look:
"What we are facing now is a darknet AI that may break into the company's intranet at any time and almost delisted an Olympian god ten years ago. Are you sure you want to update the company at this time? Put more energy into investigating a person from the bottom of the resettlement area
In the native people? "
"no!"
Subconsciously standing upright with his feet together, Wutou-1 answered loudly with a nervous look on his face.
Prison D looked him up and down for a while, as if thinking about something.
It took a long time before the person in charge of Cerberus lowered his tone and said:
"The previous head of the medical department also came to see me because of this matter."
"What does she want from you?"
Wutou-1 recalled the Perse Fanny he had seen at the door of the office before, and asked immediately.
"She came to me to ask for someone."
Prison D simply answered.
"Could it be..."
Wu Tou-1 thought of something, and his face suddenly turned ugly.
"You guessed it right, including the caveman, she packed up all the rats from the bottom of the resettlement area. It can be seen that she really wants to build her ideal utopian castle there. .”
Rarely, a faint sarcastic expression appeared on Prison D's face.
"Then did you agree?"
Wu Tou-1 asked carefully.
"I have no reason to refuse... In other words, it would be no good for me to refuse her directly in person."
Prison D replied.
There is no benefit in rejecting her face to face, that means...
Wutou-1 heard the key to his old boss's words.
"As I said before, the caveman codenamed "Theseus" has a stable mental index and a developed pontine brain area.
"Perhaps our medical princess believes that she can build a kingdom of heaven in the sewers to make up for her broken childhood. But hounds like you and me must not let go of a potential threat that will harm the company's interests in the future."
Prison D said, turning back to the computer aside and continuing to modify something.
"I understand, Director."
Hearing this, Wutou-1 immediately nodded understandingly.
Before he turned around and left, Prison D gave one last instruction:
"Remember to handle it cleanly, so as not to hurt the harmony among colleagues.
"So, let those who like to offend others offend her."
Wu Tou-1, who had already formed a plan in his mind, replied:
"learn."……
On the first floor of the Nord resettlement area, there is a bar in the dark blue area.
Coming here again, Jiang Zhou found that the atmosphere in the bar had undergone some slight changes.
The lights are no longer as psychedelic as they were last time, and the "fish" swimming in mid-air will no longer spit seafood bubbles in the faces of guests.
This boss is quite good at listening to opinions...
Jiang Zhou recalled the opinion he made last time.
Although the atmosphere at the time was very unpleasant, I didn't expect that she actually listened to my opinion.
Within a few steps of walking into the bar, Jiang Zhou saw Booker waving to him from a distance in front of the bar.
The owner of the bar, Ms. Deep Blue, was wearing a polymer skirt that looked like a fighting fish in the starry sky, and she sat across from Booker lazily.
Jiang Zhou, who thought he was being called over for a fight, walked over in confusion.
And on the way, he was stopped by the black and white brother and sister bodyguards.
"knife."
Among them, the strong man with skin as black as carbon stretched out his hand towards him.
Jiang Zhou came here carrying a monomolecular samurai sword - cold weapons in this era are mostly used as decorations to show personality, but for a melee-specialized adjuster like him, they are extremely efficient. tool of killing.
Jiang Zhou looked at the siblings again.
After three days of separation, Jiang Zhou couldn't hit these two people with a gun before. Now he felt that it only took him three seconds to kill them at this distance... without him drawing his sword.
Therefore, he is extremely
He happily handed the monomolecule knife to the man.
"Didn't I see you wearing that popular peaked cap this time?"
The strong man on the side, whose skin was as pale as if he had been soaked in formalin, recognized Liao Qi and joked angrily.
"So there is no tip this time."
Jiang Zhou replied with a shrug.
The two of them said "tsk" at the same time, as if they had a tacit understanding, and then stepped aside with a look of displeasure on their faces.
After all, this is the boss's guest. Even though the other party looks like a little guy, they still don't dare to be too rude.
Looking at them, Jiang Zhou once again wanted to figure out who was the sister and who was the brother.
When he passed between the two of them, probably to make up for his unhappy mood, the big black man's big hand slapped Jiang Zhou's butt dishonestly.
"Snapped!"
Without even looking back, Jiang Zhou grabbed the opponent's thick muscular arm in the air.
The speed was so fast that half a second after the opponent was caught, he realized that the previous "pop" sound was that his arm was caught.
The scene looked like a bamboo pole grabbing a log, but Jiang Zhou only exerted a little force, and the other party followed him and flipped half of his body.
"I see, I finally figured it out."
Jiang Zhou said with a sudden realization as the other party kept shouting "It hurts, it hurts."
The one with black skin is the elder sister and the one with white skin is the younger brother.
This can be regarded as solving Liao Qi's long-standing doubts.
Thinking of this, Jiang Zhou let go of his hand, and the black-skinned man suddenly pressed his wrist and knelt down on the ground. Jiang Zhou, who passed the other party and left without leaving any harsh words, just walked straight to the bar without looking back.
Shenlan looked at the young man with a hole in his head who had subdued his biochemically modified bodyguard so easily, with uncontrollable surprise on his face.
Three days ago, when the other party came to my bar, he was still a frail little guy. Why is it that he seems to be a completely different person now?
"So...he has completed the adjustment and transformation of depth 1?"
Deep Blue turned to look at Booker and asked.
Then, before Booker could answer, she said to herself again:
"But that's not right. Even if the adjustment is depth 1, Black will not be given away so easily..."
"It is a Depth 1 adjustment and transformation with an upgrade path plan... far stronger than the ordinary Depth 1."
In response, Booker just calmly took a sip of the wine in his hand and replied.
Deep Blue suddenly understood, and then a very feminine smile suddenly bloomed on his face.
She looked at Jiang Zhou who had just sat at the bar and said:
"I saw that you know a lot about bar culture. Are you interested in working here? In terms of salary, I will give you the best. In terms of work content, there are no specific things assigned to you, as long as you come here to drink every day. , just give me your opinions on the bar operation..."
"Your abacus almost hit me in the face."
Booker said as he put down his wine glass.
Then he glanced at Liao Qi quickly, and then continued:
"And poaching people in front of their faces is a bit too much."
"I'm not trying to poach people."
Shenlan said and also put down his wine glass.
"You Ikaros don't pay wages. At most, you just introduce jobs to the members. In that case, you might as well come to me."
Jiang Zhou, on the other hand, glanced back and forth between the two of them, and finally reminded:
"Then what...is this why you are so anxious to call me here?"
Jiang Zhou, who originally thought something big had happened, came in a hurry all the way.
Booker coughed slightly when he heard this, then handed the glass to the bartender beside him and said:
"No, no, I do have something important to discuss with you."
Saying,
He lowered his voice:
"The previous Deep 4 printing permission has been verified by someone. I would like to discuss with you how to deal with it."
"How to deal with it?"
Jiang Zhou was a little confused. Didn't he already agree to sell it on the black market?
"It's like this. One of the printing permissions is very, very special. I think..."
Booker's voice became smaller and smaller.
"How special is it?"
Seeing the other party's mysterious look, Jiang Zhou asked even more doubtfully.
Booker hesitated for a long time, and finally said softly:
"One of the printing rights has been identified as...two grams of antimatter."
