Chapter 9: Ignorant Attitudes
Ignorance believes that Russell must not have died.
Unlike the blind trust of Paradise Bird, Kasumi, Zhan and others..... or the blind faith of self-deception, ignorance has definite evidence in his hands.
The prosthetic eye that Ignorance is using today was the one that Russell had equipped him with a few months earlier. The specific model is "MONOCULUS-Kabuki", which is a parallel version of the "MONOCULUS-Joruri" used by Koruri in the past.
It doesn't have the ultra-high-definition stealing function of "Jingliuli", but it has an advanced anti-theft function - it can extract, zoom in and analyze the opponent's prosthetic eye in an instant, confirm whether the opponent has turned on the video or live broadcast at the moment when the four eyes meet, and link it to the temporary chip he assembles, highlighting and marking the silhouette of the thief in red.
Of course, whether it is stealing or anti-stealing, it is actually an illegal function. Because it involves the issue of violating the privacy of others..... this kind of prosthetic eye with illegal functions is obviously a customized product that ordinary people cannot buy. It is produced in a handmade prosthetic eye shop called "MONOCULUS Workshop" under Shenzhi Heavy Industries, and it is only because of Russell's relationship in Shenzhi Heavy Industries that someone specially sent Happiness Island.
The concept of "handmade" in the prosthetic industry actually means that the fixed molded semi-finished products produced by the general assembly line in Xiacheng District are not used, but directly get the raw materials and rub them from scratch..... not really do it by hand.
To put it simply, it is the so-called "customized prosthetic eye".
They are not selling prosthetic eyes, but high-priced prosthetic eye fitting services - on top of this service, they attach a gift of customized prosthetic eyes. Through this means, it is possible to circumvent the pressure of public opinion on the surface...... As for secretly, after all, this is a company directly under Shenzhi Heavy Industries, which is essentially a pilot organization for new technologies, and no one will not want to open fire on this thing.
However, due to his identity, Ignorance was unable to go to Tongshen Island to assemble a prosthetic eye in person. And because it doesn't use a generic template, the assembly process is also very difficult. It is not possible to connect the nerves using a universal connector, but rather to connect them manually. The optic nerve is extremely critical and cannot be mistaken.
Xiao Liuli's prosthetic eyes are actually not installed, so she will feel headaches and hallucinations from time to time, and feel anxious. This is actually a precursor to cyberpsychosis...... If she hadn't awakened her psychic powers, I'm afraid she would have turned into a cyber psychopath in the end. After all, she is just a consumable, a chess piece, and the discordant can use her violently at any time, so there is no need to think about durability.
After getting the "MAGIC EYE - Kabuki", Russell felt that if he didn't use "Aoi Yuri", there might be some problems. So after explaining to Ignorance, he went home and took out his old prosthetic hand, removed and replaced it, and plugged it into a professional workbench.
At that time, Russell told Ignorance the reason for his sudden change of prosthetic hand. The Divine Psychic Energy was too dangerous, so he planned to seal it completely. And the way to seal psionic energy is to make living psionic beings into psionic weapons. Because the "Heavens Send Disaster" is not completely dead, the demon remains inert and is sealed inside, unable to return to the sea of the group's subconscious.
In a sense, this is another kind of spirit made using the principle of "name attack elf".
It also has a "long and almost eternal lifespan" and a "soul that does not fall into corruption", the only difference is ...... The Raider Elves are self-aware, and the psionic forces don't even have brains or organs.
"βthis is probably the earliest upload of consciousness."
Russell seriously explained to Ignorance at the time, "Unless I go to Director Amirus and unlock this psionic weapon, I won't be born again in the future. In the same way, I can also make it into a permanent form of psionic chip or another 'divine descent device' to awaken this psychic ability to a designated person."
He even suspects that psionic chip technology was also developed based on this theory. An entire section of consciousness can be completely transmitted and sealed to make a psionic weapon; And if there is only a small fragment of memory, emotion, and consciousness, it can be copied into a psionic chip.
Just as "spells", "psionic powers", and "holy ranks" are essentially the same power; "Elves", "hominins", "modern humans (subhumans)", and those that are now extinct
"Giants" are essentially the same race;
"Psionic Chip", "Name-Raiding Elf", "Divine Descent Device", and "Psionic Armament" are actually the same technology.
And the Emperor's awakened spiritual energy is "Heaven Sends Disaster".
There are three possibilities for this.
Either Russell died to pieces, and even the incomparably strong psionic armament was completely shattered. Then, as soon as the demon escaped, he was immediately captured by the emperor, allowing him to awaken his spiritual energy in an instant. After the emperor obtained the nascent psionic energy, he continuously increased several levels of redshift within a few days, and even completed the psionic energy shift, to the extent that he was able to deflect sniper***;
Either that, after Russell was caught, the prosthetic hand was dismantled and returned to Director Amirus. Then, after unlocking the psionic weapon, he transplanted the "Heavenly Disaster" into the Emperor's body.
Otherwise, it was Russell who personally returned and found Director Amirus, and then with his help, consumed this psionic weapon to help the emperor awaken the psionic energy.
Ignorance is known, and Russell is a man from the Tower of Babel. He has the ability to move freely through the empty islands.
Because he was also invited by Russell, it was just that he did not agree to join. After all, he is more or less an angel.
Although Ignorance was also dissatisfied with the church, he still respected his identity and profession. In his view, there is no doubt that the church is much better than the dragon in "bringing well-being to the poor." Not to mention the Big Seven and those illegal organizations. So he joined the Brokers, but declined the invitation of the Tower of Babel.
"I'm not interested in the so-called historical truth. I don't care if dragons and elves have the legitimacy to rule the world...... There's no way I'm going to join an unorthodox group that rebels against dragons and elves. Because they have absolute superiority in force, we have no chance of winning; But I can use the influence of the angels to persecute, promote, and supervise them to improve the living conditions of the people.
"There is no point in dying together. I don't care about the truth, I don't care about the truth, I don't even care about fairness. Because the regaining of the truth will inevitably lead to war, and war will bring greater suffering and sacrifice...... And we're not forced to do that yet, we still have to talk. At a time when people want to live a good life, when the majority of people are not cornered, waging war will only be the enemy of the people, not the savior."
Ignorance seriously rejected Russell's wooing, and explained to Russell that it was basically impossible for him to woo other angels.
"Unless the situation is so urgent that there is no going back, angels generally tend to compromise in the end. This is my judgment based on my understanding of my companions."
Ignorance said calmly.
At that time, Russell extracted the key words in this speech and asked rhetorically: "In other words, unless the world is facing a 'world-destroying disaster, or the oppression of corporations causes people to be unbearable, or the church interferes with human rights or affects the survival of civilians, you will not voluntarily break away from the jurisdiction of the church, right?"
"That's right." Ignorance affirmed.
"So, if the world is facing a devastating crisis, you're going to do it, right?"
"That's right."
Without hesitation, Ignorance confirmed, "If there really is such a crisis β we will be in the front."
And now.....
Such a crisis seems to be coming.
