Abyssal Wanderer

For a long time, the task that Booker has been assigned is to obtain the location coordinates of Tartarus.

Because of the expansion plan of Pluto's deep potential Nord resettlement area, it has been under the vertical management of the headquarters Tartarus. Whether it was Ye Qian, the person in charge earlier, or Perse Fanny, who worked with him before, they were all in the middle of the company stationed at the headquarters. As long as you get through them, you can hopefully get a road map to the headquarters of Tartarus from them.

It has to be said that the coordinates of such a behemoth can be hidden for so many years, no matter how you look at it, it is an extremely outrageous thing.

This may be because the Pluto Deep Dive Company has insufficient historical background compared to other Olympian gods-this new Olympian god needs to use such a method to ensure the stability of his position .

After all, among the directors of Pluto Deep Dive Company, there are no first-generation adjusters who have experienced the "big shock" era. Even if you have an α-level deep-dive interface in your hand, whether it is the adjustment depth of the high-level, or the market, resources and population controlled by the company, it is incomparable with those established companies-there is no way, as long as you are in someone else's If you play under the rules, it is doomed not to be able to play against those old guys who have the first-mover advantage.

But if that's not the case, they have no chance of succeeding, do they?

However, not long ago, Booker's immediate boss "No. 1" suddenly contacted him-the other party said that his task of searching for the coordinates of Tartarus was put on hold for the time being, and all actions would be resumed after the situation stabilized.

And when Booker asked the reason, the other party's answer was - because the future deduced by Cassandra was disturbed by some existence from the abyss and dark net, after she regained the "oracle", Don't act rashly until the new dark web fluctuation time is predicted.

If that's the case, then it's fine. However, what the other party said next completely overturned Booker's cognition.

At that time, the mass projection of No. 1 sitting on the sofa said:

"By the way, I have received news that you have discovered a new deep dive interface in the Nord resettlement area? Why didn't you report such important news in the first place?"

Immediately afterwards, No. 1 did not give Booker a chance to explain, so he took the initiative to find the steps for him:

"Do you want to investigate the level of the deep dive interface first and confirm the safety? It is better to leave this kind of thing to a professional person."

At that time, No. 1 spoke in a tone that seemed to be blaming the parents for not handing in the red envelopes—the annoyance was actually very slight, and the tone was more composed of understanding that the other party would never disobey his will.

If Booker still had sweat glands, he must have been sweating profusely at that time.

"I... actually intend to..."

Booker opened his mouth, intending to tell his plan - he hopes to leave this deep dive interface to Icarus, and give people here a chance to rise.

But number one didn't give it a chance.

"You still have the permission to start the printer, right? It just so happens that the recent trip to Jinzhi City has ended, and I had some troubles with the people here because of some things... But anyway, I will come to Nuo Let’s go to the De resettlement area, you’d better make preparations there too, when the time comes…”

No or unwilling to understand the entanglement in Booker's heart, No. 1 said so.

"I was thinking, can I... let Icarus keep this deep diving interface for a year?"

But at that time, Booker didn't know that he had never mustered up the courage. He directly interrupted No. 1 and said so.

The other party stopped talking for a moment when he heard the words, and he changed his sitting position expressionlessly. Then, propping his cheek with one hand, he made a "please speak" gesture with the other.

"Your intelligence is not wrong. I did obtain a deep dive interface in the previous operation. But if this thing can be traced back to the source, it belongs to the public property of the Nord resettlement area. So I am thinking, if they can safely Keep it, don’t expose it to the outside world. If you have this deep diving interface, can you let them..."

"Can."

Number One waved his hand and interrupted Booker.

For a moment, Booker thought he had heard wrong.

"Can?"

Booker confirmed in disbelief.

Number One nodded, but for some reason, there was no trace of a smile on his expression.

"You don't need to bring it up, this is what I originally planned-let this deep dive interface stay in the underground level of the Nord resettlement area, let the organization you have developed today continue to keep it, and let Icarus become our Peripheral organizations... But all of this requires a premise."

For some reason, Booker felt his heart lift up.

"What... premise?"

he asked carefully.

No. 1 didn't answer right away, but stood up and walked to the window. His gaze looked through the glass at the leaden dome outside, at the buildings built against regulations, at the blocked roads on the road, and at the speeding cars scattered through the navigation light belt in the sky... His eyes It was like inspecting the king of his own country.

"The premise is that if I want to use the deep diving interface in your hand, I need to use your influence underground in the Nord resettlement area, and break through the limit of human intelligence there."

Number one said so.

"I do not understand……"

What No. 1 said made Booker a little confused—why did he need to use the deep dive interface and his influence in the Nord resettlement area to break through the limit of human intelligence?

Seeing this, No. 1 hesitated for a moment. In the end, he seemed to have finally made up his mind and said:

"Forget it, you will come into contact with these things sooner or later... For most of the upgrade paths, if you want to break through to depth 8, in addition to preparing the corresponding adjustment authority and materials, you also need the two things I mentioned earlier. One thing - deep dive interface and influence.

"The deep dive interface will help the adjuster integrate part of the abyss and dark web to build an exclusive network domain; and the so-called influence, that is, the affected 'population', can help the adjuster share the mental pressure after the upgrade, allowing the adjuster It is also able to maintain part of the self-awareness that belongs to humans.

"This is also the reason why those mercenary kings will build their own cities."

Without a little bit of defense, Booker was told the secret of breaking through the limit of human intelligence.

And his first reaction was...

"What will happen to the people who helped share the mental pressure?"

he asked.

One turned to look at him.

"So now you should be able to understand why the number of cyberpsychopaths is increasing year by year, right?" (End of this chapter)
