Chapter 101 NO.0064: A New Trial

"This place was actually generated using the Nord resettlement area as the material..."

After figuring out where he was, Booker said to himself.

On the other side, like a grasshopper, Jiang Zhou jumped up and down the high and low billboards all the way to the upper floors of the building. After pretending to look around, he opened the teammate communication channel.

"There is no 'paradox' around, and he probably isn't around here."

Jiang Zhou watched the other self who was gradually going away, while opening his eyes and reporting nonsense.

"That's it..."

Booker nodded thoughtfully, and then called Liao Qi to come down first.

Then, the two of them sat down in a secluded place, and Booker began to talk about his own opinions.

"Compared to the previous two simple and rough trials, the place we came to this time is an extremely stable environment. Moreover, its prototype is obviously the underground area of ​​the Nord resettlement area we are in... Liao Qi, What do you think of it?"

Hearing this, Jiang Zhou touched his chin slowly, pretending to be thinking, and then replied as if he was a little embarrassed:

"Sorry... I don't see any way to do it."

Probably didn't think Liao Qi could give any decent answer, so Booker tapped the table lightly with his knuckles, and said:

"If I'm not mistaken, this means that Paradox's trial for us has entered the next stage - He is no longer satisfied with testing our performance, but also testing our ability to solve problems, and..."

Having said that, Booker slightly suppressed the excitement in his tone:

"He wants to give us greater influence in base reality."

Is that so?

Hearing what he said, Jiang Zhou immediately showed an expression of enlightenment from the heart - I have to say that the ability to freely control one's emotions is really useful at this time.

So I thought so...

He couldn't help sighing.

Seeing this, Booker sighed slightly and continued:

"Actually, it's normal that you didn't expect it. After all, there are some secrets about the Nord resettlement area that you don't know very well."

Although he didn't know how the question turned to the secret of the Nord resettlement area, Jiang Zhou immediately became interested after hearing what he said.

"What secret?"

he asked calmly.

"Do you know where the universal printer in the organization came from?"

Booker asked without directly answering Jiang Zhou's question.

"Is it one of the three universal printers allocated by the coalition government to build and operate the Nord resettlement area?"

Jiang Zhou tentatively replied.

Although in Liao Qi's memory, there is no related information. However, according to common sense, there is a high probability that the universal printer in the organization originated from this.

As he expected, Booker nodded.

"After the disbandment of the coalition government, the entire Nord resettlement area fell into the chaos of a power vacuum. And the three universal printers that were used to maintain the underground facilities also disappeared. At that time, most people guessed that they were in charge of guarding They people took advantage of the chaos and sold them to the company.

"However, many years later. When a strike riot broke out at the Nord sewage treatment plant because it was about to be acquired by a company, a worker leader found a universal printer in the sewage plant."

And this also announced the birth of the Icarus Liberation Front.

"It's hidden inside the sewage treatment plant? Hasn't anyone discovered it for so many years?"

Jiang Zhou was a little surprised.

In this regard, Booker nodded and said:

"And I found it together, and there was a message. It was left by the government representative who was in charge of operating the underground circulation facility in the Nord resettlement area. They said that after the coalition government announced the disintegration, they received news that the three million The printers will be requisitioned by companies above the tenth floor for their cyber domain warfare... If so, it will only leave endless poverty and chaos to the bottom of the resettlement area.

"In order to keep a glimmer of hope for the residents of the resettlement area in the future, they decided to hide the three universal printers and the technological blueprint that can restart the underground circulation facility of the entire resettlement area—they hope that after the end of the future network war, , these things can play their due role.”

This is the biggest secret of the Icarus Liberation Front. In order to prevent this information from being known by the current resettlement area government or other companies. Only every team leader and intelligence team leader is qualified to know this matter.

After speaking, Booker added.

Jiang Zhou nodded again and again - the other party would tell him such secrets, which was enough to show his trust in him.

"That is to say... the remaining two universal printers are still hidden somewhere underground in the resettlement area and have not been found?"

Jiang Zhou asked.

"It's like this... It's just that, in order to spread the risk, the government representatives did not leave the hidden locations of the other two universal printers in their messages."

Booker continued.

Considering that the two printers have not been found for so many years, maybe they have already fallen into the hands of other organizations or individuals.

At least in the past, Booker thought so.

but……

"Do you understand now? Liao Qi, the 'paradox' brought us here this time—into the information database that records the massive information of the Nord resettlement area, just to give us this opportunity."

Opportunity to find the remaining two universal printers, as well as other supporting resources.

Booker became more and more excited as he talked.

Including the printed drawings of the geothermal power station, the planning of the Icarus route, and many other start-up resources... It can be said that the establishment of the Icarus Liberation Front was mostly due to the legacy left by the coalition government.

One-third of the heritage has shaped the current Icarus. If two other heritages can be found, their position in the resettlement area will become almost unshakable.

Even after a few more years of accumulation, they might be able to fight against the interim government of the resettlement area.

No matter what Mr. "Paradox" hopes to do through them, strengthening their actual power in the base reality must be the first thing to do.

After all, with strong influence, more resources in reality can be deployed.

Therefore, in bringing them here, it can be said that Mr. Paradox's purpose is almost obvious.

Seeing Booker's gradually excited expression at this moment, Jiang Zhou nodded again.

Oh, so my plan is so ingenious...

Then the problem also came.

"But where should we start looking?"

Jiang Zhou asked.

Can you find something that you have not been able to find in the basic reality for so many years in the reflection in the abyss and dark net?

Rather, if there is no clue, it will be more difficult.

Not to mention anything else, just the "pedestrians" coming and going on the street outside are all large files walking one by one.

If you search one by one, it is estimated that the time required is enough to complete the first millennium of the new calendar.

Booker was stunned for a moment. After a long time, he opened his mouth and said:

"This is probably the content of this 'trial'..."

Then why are you so excited, I thought you had a clue...

Jiang Zhou felt a little speechless.

"However, it's not completely clueless..."

After pondering for a while, Booker said:

"It has been speculated before that since the first universal printer was discovered in a sewage treatment plant, the rest may also be in other recycling equipment manufactured by the universal printer.

"For example, the geothermal power station on the seventh floor, or the algae/krill breeding pond on the second floor... But we have looked for these places at the beginning, but we couldn't find them in the end."

Hearing this, Jiang Zhou immediately called up the activity map of the city obtained through Hecate's blessing, and glanced at the places Booker mentioned.

Hmm...they are all high-threat areas marked in blood red, indicating that there are malicious programs that are enough to kill him.

In other words, there's a good chance there's something to be gained there -- at least by killing the malicious programs. Ability to obtain technology blueprints.

In addition, Jiang Zhou also noticed another thing.

The geothermal power station on the seventh floor has been transformed into a residential area, which he knew before.

The algae/krill breeding pond on the second floor has been completely demolished long ago, but the buildings rebuilt on the ruins are familiar to both Jiang Zhou and Liao Qi.

Warehouse of Freight Forward of Theseus.

It was the place where the company's disciplinary forces slaughtered Icarus members; at the same time... it was also the place where Jiang Zhou appeared for the first time after traveling for a hundred years.
