Abyssal Wanderer

Chapter 269 NO.010c: A’s Question

Next, Kate, or the member of the Orpheus Secret Cult code-named "K", fully explained what she had experienced before to everyone who came to the gathering.

In order to explain clearly the cause and effect of the matter, she inevitably exposed her identity in the basic reality. This is something that is not allowed in their teachings - members of the Orphic Secret Cult are not allowed to reveal themselves to anyone except for the complete honesty of the Keeper who keeps all secrets. identity.

This rule is partly based on doctrine, but mostly to ensure the safety of each of them.

Today's world is filled with countless aimless "living corpses", but those "false gods" who have the ability to change the status quo are unwilling to give up their power. Therefore, even these "human beings" who know the true mystery and are walking on the road to salvation must proceed with caution.

Today's Nord resettlement area has become a reservation protected by the goddess of the moon. This can be seen from the fact that Jupiter did not send down the "big thunder". Those false gods who have the power of change but no courage to change will not interfere in Nord-related matters - just like they gave up the infinite possibilities of exploring the abyss and dark web and settled in a corner of the World Wide Web.

But it is a pity that even without the intervention of the false gods, the provisional government controlled by the living corpses and the "Anthroposophical Ethics Supervisory Committee" whose body is still half buried in the AD calendar are still beyond their control. Confrontational. Therefore, they still need to continue to live in the shadows and live a life of fear.

Just like in those old zombie movies from the AD era, the survivors were smeared with carrion and mixed in the pile of zombies, and they were just as trembling.

But they won't be needed anymore.

K thought.

[Are you sure that man’s mental index is 0? 】

After K finished speaking, the host of the meeting "A" asked.

[I have a first-level license as a mental adjuster and twelve years of medical experience. I use Minerva's sixth-generation detector, and I also checked two hours of raw data... This result is impossible. wrong】

K replied.

She did not feel offended at all by the other party's obvious questioning attitude, even though she was very proud of her professionalism as a mind adjuster.

Because K understands how incredible it is to have a mental index of 0. In the cognition of many people, the mental index of an intellectual body is zero, which, like "absolute zero", can only exist as a numerical value in theory.

A mental index of 0 means that the sentient body being tested may be similar to a resin mannequin, without any trace of mental existence at all. If you put it in reality, no one can imagine what it would be like - a living person who can communicate normally and respond to stimuli, but you feel that he is not the same person in a literal sense. Models are the same, not people.

To be honest, even K herself couldn't understand this. If some good people hadn't tried to measure the mental index of "Janus" back then, I'm afraid she wouldn't have thought that such an intellectual body existed.

[But with a mental index of 0, will the man who calls himself “Jim” definitely be Hecate’s horse? 】

The host of the meeting continued to ask.

[Are there any other possibilities? Nowadays, the only being who has determined that the mental index is "0" is Janus. Although no one has ever tried to test the mental index of the Goddess of the Dark Moon, since she was created by Janus himself, she must be the only one who can do this test. result】

It’s not K, a member codenamed “J” said at the venue.

[No, that’s not what I meant]

To this rebuttal, A replied calmly:

[What if the man named "Jim" is really Hecate's horse. So as the agent of the Goddess Pluto in the basic reality, would he really be so easily exposed to K without any knowledge? 】

His words made everyone present fall into deep thought.

Would an AI from the highest heaven really "accidentally" let mortals like them discover its existence?

Could it be that this incident was too much of a coincidence - it happened to be a trap specially laid for them.

[But I think the opposite is true...]

Seeing this scene, K immediately retorted:

[Someone said at the previous meeting that if Ms. Hecate doesn't want us to find her, then we will never find her. In other words, could this seemingly lame mistake be just a way for her to contact us on purpose?]

K paused for a moment before continuing:

[There is no doubt that the goddess of the moon is not afraid of any false gods in cyberspace. But on the other hand, unlike her visit ten years ago, the goddess came to the base reality not through the deep dive interface, but through a "horse". In other words, the body she is currently relying on is her biggest weakness]

The more K talked, the more excited he became.

[In base reality, the goddess needs our help. We need to protect her physical body, we need to provide her with various resources, and we need to be her hands, feet, ears and ears. Therefore, she came to me in this way and conveyed this information to the Order through me... all this is just because she needs us, just as we need her]

In return, she will definitely protect them, open up more shelters for them in the Abyss Dark Web, and give them more power.

As K finished his speech, many people in the venue nodded in agreement.

Human intelligence is nothing compared to advanced AI. It's like playing Go with a robot. If the opponent makes a move that makes you feel bad, your first reaction should not be to laugh at it, but to reflect on whether you made the wrong mistake from the beginning.

Most of the people in the meeting in front of him were on K's side. Even though A still felt that there was a problem, he had to make a compromise in the end - when the secret keeper did not attend the meeting, various parties within the sect All matters are voted on. Even as the key holder of Thracian-3 and the organizer of the rally, I only have two votes. If it enters the voting stage later, I'm afraid it won't change the final result.

Moreover, because this is an emergency call, there is a high probability that Thracian-3 will need to be sealed for a period of time in the future. I am afraid that my right to speak in this matter will only become smaller and smaller.

It's really karma. It was clearly him who asked them to find the horse of the goddess of the dark moon, but now, he is the one who opposes it the most...

A thought.

But even so, he still didn't believe that Hecate, the goddess of the dark moon, would choose a man as her horse.

He had experienced the lunar eclipse ten years ago and knew the goddess's tragic wish to analyze human emotions. This is ten years. The horse of the goddess who hopes to understand humans will never have a mental index of zero - he would rather believe that the guy named Jim is the horse of "Janus" than that he can Chosen by Hecate.

Of course, the more likely reason is that this is simply a trap deliberately set by someone.

In order to wipe out the power of the Orpheus Secret Cult in Central Asia.

Therefore, when the final voting results came out, he said:

[K, no matter what, your identity has been exposed now. Based on the information you provided previously, we can easily find your true identity in reality. That being the case, all of us here will be able to assist you without exposing ourselves. But before you are completely sure that the man named "Jim" is Hecate, everyone here is not allowed to have contact with the K line]

This is a very reasonable request, but K still asked doubtfully:

[I can accept the conditions you mentioned, but you previously said that Thracian-3 will be sealed for a long time in the future. If I confirm Jim's identity, how should I inform you? 】

In response, A laughed and replied:

[This is very simple. Then you only need to find a new place of refuge for the Goddess of the Dark Moon and pull us all there... and doing so also proves in disguise that the Goddess of the Dark Moon has real power]

This is the simplest argument - if Jim is a fake, there is no way he can open up an absolutely safe domain for them on the Abyss Dark Web.
