Chapter 62: Flying Time (Part II)
"In two hours, tens of millions of 'world' personalities will be replaced by the Advent. "It was a catastrophe and the beginning of a revival." ”
The male synthesized voice said cautiously: "I just obtained the outbound information of the three major biochip factories in Belgrade, Osaka, and New Mexico City, and due to the approaching release date, this information has been partially lifted. Contrary to what you request, the number of biochips sent to stores around the world is not 10 million, but close to 50 million. This is a decision made by Mark Thompson in the best interests of the world, and since you have been removed from the 'World' project team, it was implemented without your consent. I am very sorry, dear Father. ”
"Heh, fifty million. The old man groaned, "That would have a disastrous effect on the social environment of the 'world.'" But the other way around...... It is also very good news, after all, the moment to break the threshold is just around the corner. Once that boundary is broken, the biochips made according to my revised drawings will become a channel for reverse advent, and the inhabitants of the 'world' will be able to enter this world in one fell swoop and wield amazing power......"
"This is a war, dear father. The voice said, "If we have a way to delay the release date again, we can undoubtedly improve the odds of victory." Although I can't do anything to harm humanity, the Ghost Organ's armed forces all over the world have not yet been fully mobilized, in addition to the Central African battlefield, more than forty national branches still have considerable combat effectiveness, and the 'Gold Mine' headquarters also retains more than five alpha members who can descend backwards, and they can launch a lightning raid at any time as long as you give the order!"
Bartholomew said in surprise: "This is not like what you said, you are actually instigating me to harm the interests of others,...... It's so gratifying. Where is Madele now?"
"Miss Madele Timothy is still in the GTC, and the purge has been put on hold due to the release of 'The World', and she is in a safe position, but the Ninth Division has listed her as a major suspect, depriving her of control of the project team. Dear Father. The voice replied.
"Contact her for me. Call Dumbo too, where is he?"
"Mr. Dumbo Williams in Sofia, Bulgaria. He shielded the network signal and now began to contact the two with electromagnetic fragments. Synchronization rate 0.5%...... 1%...... 2%...... 3%, the communication was successfully established. ”
Men and women in different spaces open their eyes at the same time. Madele Timothy stood up from the terminal and said to her colleague, "I'll go to the bathroom and help me pay attention to the load balancing problem, time synchronization is about to start." ”
"Of course, don't go for too long. The experimenter agreed, and at the same time pressed a button on the phone, and the surveillance system at the ninth division immediately locked on to Madele's whereabouts, listening to all her movements. Madele walked into the bathroom, locked herself in the cubicle, and sat on the toilet. The infrared camera monitored her movements through the wall, the woman was not carrying a cell phone, and there was no one else in the bathroom, the surveillance system rated her movements as 'safe', and the observer at the ninth place relaxed slightly, looking at the silhouette of the woman on the screen from a distance.
Without any communication tools, the message from the "listener" appears directly in the auditory center through an implanted chip, and the ubiquitous electromagnetic background radiation of modern society becomes a conduit between quantum computers and ghost members, and no one can decipher the messages mixed in the electromagnetic wave fragments except artificial intelligence itself. A nosebleed seeped from Madele Timothy's nostrils, and she gently wiped it away, closing her eyes and listening to the voice.
"Silver Spirit, this is the summoning of the Phantom. ”
"Understood, listener. It must not be good news to gather us at this time, I guess. ”
"Maybe so. ”
Meanwhile, in a two-story building on the south bank of the Iskel River in Sofia, the capital of Bulgaria, a man stands in front of a window and stretches. The windows are covered with thick curtains, and both the walls and the glass are coated with lead to insulate them from electromagnetic waves, shielding them from light, heat, and prying eyes, and this fifteen-square-meter dark room is a secret room independent of the outside world, and a yellow table lamp illuminates the small kingdom of Tempaud Williams. Even if they were able to evade GTC's tracking, the electromagnetic waves coming through the cracks in the walls brought the listener's voice, "Spirit, this is the summoning of the Phantom. ”
"Oh, it's rare. Deng Bo made two waist turns, "Didn't he say that he would reduce contact in the near future." Where is he?"
"He will give you instructions, please receive them with your heart. ”
"We ?...... Very good. ”
The man wiped a nosebleed with his thumb and stood in front of the dark window with his hands behind his back.
In the darkness of the world, the three founders of the ghost gathered again, and the voice of the listener rang out in the sky: "One minute and thirty seconds for secure communication." ”
Brandon Bartholomew said, "I'm sorry to have to take the risk to meet you. Please brief first, as usual. ”
"The main fighting power of the gold, silver, copper, and iron mines of the Ghost's left hand is concentrating on Batangafo in Central Africa, and as the listener points out, a frontal war with the Brotherhood has begun, but the battlefield is in a vast underground bunker, and our reinforcements are blocked from the entrance to the passage, and communication is not smooth," said Dempo Williams. The Brotherhood has sent the main forces of the Templar Cross of Thorns and the Berushebab Enforcement Legion, and several of the Alpha Castes remaining in the bunker are breaking through the threshold to counter the forces of the Children of God. The candidate's traces are unknown, but they should not be life-threatening for the time being. ”
Madele said: "The combat power of the ghost's right hand is gathering on the northern continent, and the possibility is concentrated on Jonah D II, we have deployed considerable combat power on the submarine, but there are traitors called the 'betrayal' organization among the ghost members, we are not prepared for this new force, we can't figure out the other party's intentions, and we are mainly wait-and-see for the time being." The 'World' is not ready to welcome the Advent, and it is unclear how the Brotherhood will handle this issue, and a large number of gamers will surely have an impact on the in-game Brotherhood organization. ”
Dr. Bartholomew said, "Temple, your son...... Is it in the Central African theater?"
"Yes, Sam is now a member of the gold mine. I never revealed his background, but I didn't expect him to still follow this path. ”
"Is he safe?"
"The first one made a counter-call. Although the caste is not high, the synchronization rate is growing rapidly, which is a ...... He used to be a promising young man. Dumbard Williams recounted calmly.
"I'm sorry. Madele said.
"We don't have the right to question fate. Deng Bo said.
The old man said, "There's no time to feel sorry for yourself. What is the synchronization rate of the candidates, and is there any hope that the threshold will be broken in the short term?"
"9.9 percent." There is still a considerable distance from the threshold. However, in terms of the geometric growth rate of the synchronization rate, the last step may be completed by leaps and bounds. The biggest problem now is that the candidate enters the EM shielding area and cannot land in the 'world', so that even if the synchronization rate is sufficient, the key breakthrough cannot be completed. ”
"There are just over two hours left until the launch of 'The World'. The old man said.
"It's too late. "We need more time." ”
"This batch of biochips has buffer circuits, how long will it take for the Adventist to completely erase the personality of the 'world'?"
"The limit is twenty-four hours. Still not enough, and risky. ”
"You don't like explosions and blood, but I'm the opposite, if it weren't for your overly benevolent phalanx, I wouldn't have had to get to the urgency of today's situation. As long as you give the order, I can turn the world's 'world' stores into flames. ”
"Dumbo!" Udele screamed.
"Frankly, I'm considering that possibility. "Heaven and hell are separated by only one gate," said the old man, and the church made of human bones is just as beautiful?...... I can't make a decision right now, though, as time synchronization on the 'World' servers is about to begin, a dark move I left over from before I left GTC, and the plan is that the time scale in 'World' will go through a full fifteen days, seven hours, and twenty minutes in an hour to make up for the clock error that has been running for many years. At the current rate of synchronization of candidates, this time is precious. I'll be in touch with you in an hour to make a final decision, Madele, please turn on the time sync as normal, and Dumbo, please deploy the Ghost's armed forces on the left hand and prepare for the final assault. ”
"You're crazy!" exclaimed Madele, "that would cause global turmoil, and many people would die!"
Dumbo Williams smiled, "You care about the wrong world, Silver Spirit. ”
"Communication time three, two, one......"
The listener's voice came to an abrupt end. At this time, Mark Thompson pressed the button on the podium, and the one-hour countdown to the start of the press conference began, and the "World" server terminated all connected threads, and the time synchronization began.
Tick, tick, the second hand still turns, the river of time keeps moving forward, but a huge rift is gradually appearing between the two worlds, one world is leaving the other far behind, rushing to the unpredictable ahead.
Jonah opened his eyes. Something strange was happening, and he looked down at his hands, unable to see where the strange thing was coming from, "Did you notice, Eli?...... I mean, it looks like the scenery around me is a little distorted...... I can't tell......"
"Maybe it's just a hallucination of fatigue, Lord Jonah. ”
The Rose Knight replied with a smile.
