Abyssal Wanderer

Chapter 207 NO.00ce: Janus Program

"...If this wish can only be realized after a hundred years. Then how can I be sure that what you are saying now is the truth?"

The time goes back not long ago...or in other words, to that time before.

The moment that changed Jiang Zhou and the fate of all mankind.

Still in the perception of "self" for a hundred years, Jiang Zhou looked at the human figure made of countless color blocks on the TV, and asked this question into the microphone of the mobile phone.

"It's very interesting, so in your wish, you also need to include the condition of allowing yourself to witness the realization of the wish of 'realizing mutual understanding between people', right?"

Without directly answering Jiang Zhou's question, "Janus" confirmed it politely.

After hesitating for a while, Jiang Zhou felt a slight movement in his eyes—it was his past self nodding.

"If I could, I'd like to be able to witness it myself."

He said so.

"In this case, there are two wishes."

Janus on the screen said so, and as he spoke, his image began to distort and tremble as if the TV signal had been interfered.

But before Jiang Zhou could continue to say something, he continued to say very politely:

"Although this is against the rules, since you are the one who made the wish, then compared to other people, you can naturally make some extra requests..."

As he said, the image composed of countless color blocks became more and more trembling, and countless noises began to spread all over the image.

After a while, Janus's image became so slack that he couldn't even maintain his human form.

"I do not understand……"

Jiang Zhou felt himself a hundred years ago, and became extremely flustered at this moment. Just like the words I said before, like a butterfly flapping its wings, it caused drastic changes in the future.

"I just want to witness that 'people can understand each other'. Why should this be counted as an extra wish?"

And His voice became more and more ethereal, and countless noises echoed in it, converging into a huge symphony.

"You said you want to witness, but the human mind is fragile and changeable. A hundred years is too long and tortuous for you. Even if I can make you live to the day when it will be realized, a hundred years later You may only be tired of the future you once dreamed of, and then try to reverse and change..."

Jiang Zhou had to concentrate at this moment to be able to hear Janus' speech clearly.

"And in this world, both macroscopic and microscopic phenomena are actually governed by the same set of physical laws. For example, observing the impact of this behavior on the system itself. Yes, if you want to witness it with your own eyes , then in order to minimize the impact of the observation, I need to send the current you intact to a hundred years later, and then weave it into a link of that system.

"In this way, you can be both in it and out of it."

Janus' voice became more and more chaotic, and Jiang Zhou continued to ask:

"But you just said "compared to other people", that is to say, besides me, will there be other people's wishes..."

It was no longer just Janus, at this moment, even the voice of "Jiang Zhou" himself began to blur—Jiang Zhou realized that for some reason, this piece of leftover information was about to come to an end.

"Eligible...to make a wish...you won't be the only one..."

As if the tape was stuck, Janus' last voice came intermittently.

"...And when...a hundred years later...you will go there yourself..."

The picture in front of him disappeared together with other feelings, and finally there were only two words left, which echoed in Jiang Zhou's ears.

"accomplish."

With the end of this picture, when Jiang Zhou completed the verification of the mandala for the first time, the pattern of the double-faced god Janus he saw appeared in the center of his sight.

That is the image of the ancient and vicissitudes of the door god. One side of him looks at the past, and the other side looks at the future.

And what appeared with this sign were messages that kept popping up on the interface in front of Jiang Zhou.

[Janus system has been reconnected and activated]

[Confirmed, the user authority has reached the Moon God Realm]

[Narrowing the scope of the search, searching for matching controllable elements in the Nord resettlement area]

[When the number of controllable elements that can be connected: 67 (66)]

[Calculate the current adjustment depth, it is recommended to connect the number of controllable elements: 2]

A series of pop-up messages, just like the emotional bombardment of a landmine girlfriend, kept popping up.

And when Jiang Zhou turned to the last message, just like when he activated the Janus program for the first time in Tartarus, a human figure composed of countless changing color blocks appeared in this area. within the blank space.

It's just that, unlike the last time he connected with "Liao Qi", there is not only one color block human figure appearing in front of his eyes this time.

but sixty-seven.

"It's said that the shipment is in the warehouse of 'Theseus Freight'. Kill me, and you don't even want to get a dime."

"Master, welcome home meow~ Do you plan to eat first, or take a bath first? Or... first~eat~me~meow~"

"Can you add a contact information, girl? I want to introduce my mother's son to you."

"This hotel is probably haunted. Go to the Maple Sugar Shrine tomorrow to find the witch to exorcise the evil spirits. Last time, Lao Yu let the girl settle it."

"You're right, I'm just a lackey of the tenth-level government authority, not even a loyal lackey."

"Thank you for your kindness, but trouble is my business, sir."

"Mom, I'm going to fly under the hot sun."

...

In the Nord resettlement area, what the sixty-seven people experienced at this moment was unfolded in front of Jiang Zhou.

Even the brain that has been adjusted and strengthened by the depth 1 of the Theseus path cannot process so much information in time.

It was only in the end that Jiang Zhou's attention was completely attracted by the last...or it could be said, the earliest "controllable element".

Among the sixty-seven human figures composed of countless color blocks, only that one was marked with a dazzling blood red.

Liao Qi...

The moment he was disconnected before, the part that once formed a whole with him, his "left brain" or "right brain", has been judged as useless by the "Janus program" at this moment.

Before, when he was not connected with himself...what happened?

What happened to make him what he is today?
