Chapter 25 NO.0019: Upgrade path·Icarus

I didn't tell a single lie...

Looking at himself in the audience and Booker who was unfortunately dragged over, Jiang Zhou thought to himself.

He had indeed pulled the two of them over through the Abyss Dark Web, and he was indeed temporarily visiting the current location of Depth 2... As for how Booker would understand his words, that was not his problem.

Without giving the other party a chance to continue to ponder, Jiang Zhou struck while the iron was hot and asked:

"What did you plan to do when you started that thing you called the 'universal printer'?"

As soon as this statement came out, the two people in the audience fell silent at the same time, seeming to be thinking about how they should answer this question - of course, one of them was just pretending to be thinking, while the other was really wringing his hands.

Brain.

Booker did not think that such a mysterious being hacked into the multi-purpose printer, dragged them to the depth 2 of the abyss dark web, and set up such a large array just to ask such a simple question.

There is definitely a deeper meaning in this, or there may be some huge conspiracy hidden.

Of course, the greater possibility is that their restart of the universal printer is just an insignificant part of the other party's huge plan - maybe the other party has hacked into countless computers at the same time and dragged thousands of files.

People are asking questions, and in this way they are carrying out the grand layout of the grand plan of basic reality.

Anyway, using one's own mortal wisdom to speculate on the purpose of "paradox" to upgrade life is like rhesus monkeys speculating on why those humans brought themselves into the laboratory.

It cannot be said that it is meaningless, but it will not have much impact on my final outcome.

Thinking of this, Booker couldn't help but shudder.

For some reason, his mind seemed to echo the pitiful wails of monkeys when they were locked in cages waiting to be dissected.

No matter what, tell the truth as much as possible.

If you are found to be lying, you will most likely offend the other party.

After making up his mind, Booker turned to look at Liao Qi, giving the boy a look that said he should stop answering blindly. Then he looked up at the "Paradox" at the top of the tower and answered carefully:

"We are restarting... The person who previously had the permission to enable this universal printer died, and before he died, he sealed the permission in the memory and transferred it out. We are trying to restart and plan to transfer the permission.

Rebind."

So who do you plan to bind it to? You haven’t said it yet!

After hearing this answer, Jiang Zhou resisted the urge to ask further.

The other party stopped here, as if to indicate that he had finished speaking.

This guy also learned from himself, speaking half of the words, and only giving a hint of "you and I both understand" for the rest!

Jiang Zhou sat in his chair silently.

Before team leader Coret died, he designated the person who bound the permission to enable the printer to be Liao Qi - after all, the team leader must have noticed that there was a company insider inside Icarus. And Liao Qi, who almost died several times during the company's siege

Lacquer is enough to prove one's innocence, so leaving it to him is definitely an appropriate choice.

But when Booker led Liao Qi to the orphanage, he never made it clear who he wanted to bind the authority to, which made Jiang Zhou suspicious.

If the corporate ghost in Icarus is Booker, no matter what his purpose is, he will eventually bind the startup permission of the multi-purpose printer to himself.

Therefore, the answer to this question is extremely critical for determining the identity of the other party.

But he didn't say it!

And it’s hard for me to ask.

Jiang Zhou thought helplessly.

With him pretending to be a master, a master, a master, he really couldn't ask such trivial questions as "Who do you plan to bind the authority to?"

Asking this question is too damaging to the enigmatic image created previously.

It is also easy to make the other party suspicious.

"Well, what about other than that?"

In the end, Jiang Zhou had no choice but to continue asking in a calm manner.

besides?

Hearing this question, Booker became nervous again.

Have your little thoughts been discovered?

He did hide some things, but not from the "Paradox" in front of him, but from Liao Qi beside him - if he knew something, the impact would be very bad.

He originally thought that matters of this level would not matter at the level of "paradox", so he just brushed it off vaguely. Unexpectedly, the other party seemed to realize that he was hiding something, or that the other party actually knew everything.

Just testing yourself to see if you are lying?

Countless possibilities and answers were constantly spinning in Booker's mind. But considering the possibility that he could safely return to the basic reality, he decided to take the risk and fool the past again.

"Also..."

"Also, the two of us plan to go together to see the last words that the deceased authority holder left for us in the memory."

Liao Qi beside him seemed to be unable to restrain his restless heart again and scrambled to answer.

"Paradox" who was sitting on the seat nodded slightly, and then turned his "eyes" to himself.

He seemed to be asking: So, what do you want to say?

After Liao Qi finished what he wanted to say, Booker, under the pressure of "Paradox"'s "eyes" that seemed to be able to look directly into his heart, really couldn't say things like "Ah, this is what I want to say" or "Yes."

That’s right, that’s it.”

If he and Liao Qi could go back alive together, he must educate this brat on what "adults talk, children don't interrupt".

Booker secretly bit his molars and thought, and then he replied helplessly:

"In that memory, there should be a set of upgrade paths called 'Icarus' stored in it. I hope to be able to take it out completely..."

Good guy, this guy really is hiding something!

Jiang Zhou was pleasantly surprised when he saw that he had indeed deceived him. If Booker hadn't been in front of him, he would have given him a high-five for their tacit cooperation.

"That's it."

Although he had no idea what the "upgrade path" was and what its relationship was with "Icarus", Jiang Zhou still acted as if he knew everything and responded in any way that he could understand.

nonsense.

Then he quickly asked Liao Qi to ask:

"Mr. Booker, what do 'upgrade path' and 'Icarus' mean? Leader Coret didn't even have the chance to explain it to me before he died."

Booker, who had no choice but to tell this secret, sighed softly, and then looked up at Paradox sitting on the platform, his eyes full of requests for instructions.

But Jiang Zhou couldn't decipher the complicated look in the other party's eyes. Did he want "paradox" to explain these things, or did the other party hope that he could give him some time to explain some common things to this child who didn't understand anything?

Unknown knowledge.

But Jiang Zhou didn't know anything anyway, so he could only assume that the other party was asking for instructions in the latter way.

"It doesn't matter."

After giving an ambiguous answer again, Jiang Zhou leaned on his seat and stopped talking.

"Thank you for your generosity..."

Booker bowed to "Paradox" to show his gratitude, then turned to look at Liao Qi, and said seriously:

"The so-called upgrade path is a plan that allows the transformation of the adjuster to go to a higher depth. Nowadays, all existences that can break through the depth of 7 human intelligence limits have succeeded by following different paths.
