"After that, 111 even implicated 136, and there was a period of serious suspicion. After all, at that time, the distrust of natural adjusters was still mainstream. Before, it was just the former team leader who suppressed such voices."
I see?
After hearing what Booker said, Jiang Zhou seemed to understand.
At least, in his opinion, this was a suitable reason to explain 136's previous extremely excited mood.
In a sense, 111 and 136, who are both natural adjusters of the Black Falcon model, have more in common than identical twin brothers - apart from the difference in serial numbers, the genes between them All are completely consistent.
Coupled with the same growing environment and the same life experience, it is only natural that these two people treat each other as another person over the years.
But such a person who resembled half of himself finally chose to betray the organization after being captured. This was definitely a very heavy blow to 136.
And after this round of mental blow, he might have some kind of self-doubt... If he was the one who was captured back then, would he choose to betray like that half?
Probably because of a similar psychology, just like some kind of stress reaction, when 136 encounters a similar encounter, he will pathologically insist on an uncompromising attitude as before.
Maybe deep down he doesn't believe that anyone would believe in him.
Just like Qianxia Sakura said before, he has actually been pursuing some kind of noble sacrifice with a clear conscience.
Thinking of this, Jiang Zhou asked:
"Then about the real reason for the betrayal of 111, has it been found out later?"
In response, Booker shook his head:
"There is nothing to check. When a person is trying to survive, no matter what he does, it will not be surprising... Don't try to grasp people's hearts, Liao Qi. Especially when you are running an organization, you must give up trying to grasp them. Those illusory things, turn to grasp the reality that can be controlled as much as possible.”
First of all, you have to treat people as animals. Only on this basis can you truly think rationally.
Booker concluded.
This makes sense... He also teaches himself how to run an organization, which sounds like he is explaining his funeral arrangements.
Hearing this, Jiang Zhou couldn't help but complain silently in his heart.
But he actually understands why Booker wants to talk about this now.
After all, among the "controllable realities", the most obvious and straightforward one is "power".
After all, this is a material world, one is one, and two is two. The obvious reality between strong and weak cannot be reversed by spiritual power alone.
In other words, if reality can be reversed by relying on anger and hatred, then there will not be so many helpless things in this world.
During the conversation, the two of them had already walked into the abandoned factory where the multi-purpose printer was placed. After previously escorting the people from Pluto Deep Diving Company to the designated location and settling in the group of released prisoners of war, they He rushed here without stopping.
Along the way, Booker explained the situation to him in detail: Before what happened at the Deep Blue Zone Bar, he had planned to come over to find him.
Now, the observation period for Liao Qi's mental index has passed. After being certified by Bai Dong, the mental adjuster in the organization, and confirming that his mental index is still stable, Icarus, who currently lacks backbone combat power, needs to be quickly brought up to the depth 2 level.
After all, the printing permissions for Icarus Path Depth 2 and the required materials are now ready.
In addition, the things that happened in the dark blue zone also made Booker feel a certain sense of urgency.
"It is foreseeable... that when the geothermal power station is rebuilt in the future, all kinds of troubles will come to our door."
Booker said so.
At present, in addition to the covetous underground gangs, some factions within the resettlement area government are also ready to take action.
"In addition, according to previous calculations by the Echo Type I Combat Assistance System, Black Falcon-111 should have been upgraded to depth 3, and is likely to be on the upgrade path."
As if recalling something, Booker continued to add.
The Echo Type I Combat Assistance System, or it can be called the Echo Type I Combat Assistance System, can scan and analyze the remaining traces on the scene to trace back roughly what kind of battles occurred in a small area and within a short period of time.
In addition, this auxiliary system can also help the adjuster roughly estimate the opponent's strength level - at least within the depth of the surface light belt, there is no problem.
Jiang Zhou had heard Booker mention it before that this was one of the adjustments and improvements in Perseus Path Depth 2.
"The same is true for the dangerous intuition that the other party gave me... If I encounter him in an encounter, I will never be my opponent."
Regarding Booker's words, Jiang Zhou also nodded with deep understanding.
Then, he asked with some confusion:
"But isn't Black Falcon-111 a natural adjuster? How could he take the path of advancement?"
In my own understanding, compared to adjusters who are gradually upgraded through multi-purpose printers, those with natural abilities through genetic modification should only be able to reach the limits set by their nature in their lifetime.
Just like 136 has never dared to continue trying to upgrade to depth 3, most of the mental indexes of people with natural adjustments are not very stable and cannot withstand further adjustments and transformations.
Not to mention starting over from depth 1.
Regarding this question, Booker was silent for a while, and then said:
"I heard some of the information from hearsay... But there are rumors that the technicians who created the natural adjusters back then actually considered multiple upgrade paths when designing natural adjusters of various genetic models. It can also be said that, They are mass-produced, degraded versions that can be manufactured without relying on a universal printer.
"If this is really the case, it would make sense for them to continue walking along the originally designed path."
When Jiang Zhou heard this, he suddenly remembered something and asked immediately:
"Do you know what path the Black Falcon model corresponds to?"
Recalling what Booker had said before, about 111's inexplicable betrayal after being captured, and 136's sudden excitement, he suddenly had some bad associations.
A certain familiar feeling.
That elusive puppet circuit...
Jiang Zhou couldn't even remember how many times he had been tricked by this thing.
In addition, the traitor who leaked the location of the organization's large forces in the previous massacre of "The Siege of Theseus" has not yet been found. During the previous negotiations, Booker used this as a condition for cooperation, hoping that The other party can hand over the list.
But Fanny said that she had never heard that the company had sent spies to the Icarus Liberation Front. Even if there was, it was the responsibility of Ye Qian in the past, and she didn't know this.
Of course, she later said that she would help with the investigation, but in the end she advised them not to expect any results.
In this way, suppose... suppose that the upgrade path of the Black Falcon model is the "Path of Theseus", and if a puppet circuit is implanted in 136's body...
maybe……
"Either Ixion or Endymion... Of course, I only know the path name, and I don't know what their specific abilities are after reaching depth 3."
Booker answered directly to Jiang Zhou's question.
Then, without saying where he got the information, he activated his mandala code and opened the last safety door of the secret room.
The dark cube was floating quietly in the middle of the secret room.
In the room, Winston, who was taking a rest wearing a simulated movie helmet, quickly took off his helmet after hearing the movement outside the door.
"You guys are here... Speaking of which, our Brother Liao, will he be upgraded to Depth 2 so soon?"
Maybe he didn't expect them to come so early, Winston, who was hit while fishing at work, said with a little embarrassment.
There is one more update later
