I created the Anomaly Control Bureau

Chapter 157 155. Greco (4K)

Greck and Rudy returned to the containment room safely. Although they did not bring back any valuable items in the end, they got quite important information without knowing it themselves.

Skywalker's message said "The poisonous snake has got into your bed", which verified his suspicion of Shen Zhihe, and she also mentioned a deal between the Federation and the Salvation Alliance, and she wanted Mann to accept this deal .

This is also the "blade in the shadow" in the three premises she mentioned to kill Luna, and the other two are "blade of the forerunner" and "trap named oblivion".

After Marne woke up, he read some stories related to the prophecy, which basically involved misunderstanding of the prophecy, but if the one who left the prophecy was a real prophet, he shouldn't need to think too much about this possibility.

Even if he has a wrong understanding, it may finally guide the correct path, because Skywalker wrote that paragraph not because of what he saw, but because he saw that paragraph of text and it would lead to what she wanted Future forward.

Therefore, he has already carried out the most basic analysis based on this passage. The shadow is either a hiding place in the literal sense, or it refers to the current minister of the investigation department, Shadow, or the investigation department he represents.

The forerunner's blade in the tower should be the best to understand among the three sentences. The forerunner obviously refers to those titans who have already embarked on the road to fight against the gods. god-killing weapon.

The trap named Forgotten made Marne have some doubts, but the phrase "crossing the channel across mountains and rivers" in front of it made him finally confirm the answer.

After waking up, he first saw the word "passage" as the staff passage on the note he left behind, and it can indeed cross mountains and rivers, and it can even do far more than that.

Then the oblivion refers to the unmemorable person who let himself escape from the mental hospital, because of his existence, Marne has not tried to return to the hospital, even though the underground lycanthropy patients there have the possibility of being converted into employees .

He could go back underground and trade with them like a devil with the condition of "regaining freedom". He believed that there would be many lycanthropists willing to pay a huge price, but Marne never considered this idea at all.

At that time, the Unmemorable One couldn't kill himself, but it doesn't mean that he still can't do it now. Maybe he was in a weak state after the battle with himself at that time, so he couldn't end his life.

Marne himself is still in this weakened state, and he has not found any way to reverse his influence, such as trying to simply touch the scene to create emotion is useless, even telepaths have never heard of any special memory processing before. The technique of erasure.

After all, no one will think of a way to fight against something that doesn't exist.

But if Skywalker's prophecy really points to the right path, then maybe the current Victor Sanatorium is not as dangerous as he imagined, but if it is not dangerous to him, how can Luna Introduced into a deadly trap?

Before he got the information about the other two things, he might not be able to figure out exactly what the trap was, and he also didn't know the specific method to lure the Moon God into the trap.

But in fact, there is still a doubt about the trap of Marne - her purpose of writing these words is definitely not to benefit herself, but to make the future shift towards successfully saving the world, so her life and death may not be determined by this matter. within the scope of consideration.

And this worry largely comes from what Skywalker told him. She said that although she can see her future, she can't remember it, but now she still wrote down these words, which also proves that even if she Certainly not completely unable to influence her judgment.

So for Skywalker, how much of her own impact can she see?Whether she can clearly perceive whether her own life is good or bad for her desired future, or put aside these, there will still be one most important question.

That is, is my life and death good or bad for the world?
The answer to this question itself is also unknown. Even if Ma En now feels that he must be on the side of justice, there is no guarantee that his future self will maintain such an idea.

And he does have the potential to threaten the safety of the world.

Thinking about it better, even if I swear now that I will always walk on the road of helping to save the world, and strictly demand myself based on this creed, it does not mean that his existence is positive to the world.

After all, no one dares to say whether the actual impact of his life on the world is in line with his own ideas. Even a saint without any moral flaws may cause the world to be destroyed by accidentally touching some abnormal item.

Based on Ma En's understanding of Qin Luan, she is not the kind of lunatic who judges the death of other people based on pure probability and the result itself. She still has normal moral concepts, but the problem is that the words she wrote are not what she wants to say.

Qin Luan not only couldn't understand those Chinese characters at all, but also couldn't affect what he wrote.

Therefore, in fact, the realization of this prophecy can only make the future move in a direction that meets Qin Luan's expectations, and Ma En can't be sure that this is also beneficial to him, and he can't directly believe that it is safe for him to return to the mental hospital. .

But he can also nudge the future in the desired direction himself.

Moreover, the probability that the prophecy would lead to his death is actually very low. This is just the worst possibility. Marne is more thinking through thinking to remind himself not to take it lightly because of the existence of the prophecy.

Moreover, the current situation is slightly different from the prophecy. The transaction did not come directly to him as predicted. The order Lei Yu and the others received was to get in touch with Qin Lan through Ma En and to kill him.

This also made him feel puzzled.

The investigation department definitely wanted to negotiate with Qin Lina, but if they simply wanted to do this, killing themselves should not be the top priority of the investigation department, this approach would only reduce their chances of success.

They should have taken a gentler approach, unless killing themselves was one of their goals.

No matter what the reason is, his current desire to obtain the "Shadow Dagger" is definitely not as simple as described in the prophecy, so overall, the most important goal he should complete first should be to obtain the weapon in the tower.

It was precisely because of this that Marne came outside the containment room.

When he pushed them away, Grek, the metal controller, was staring at the direction he came in, but his eyes didn't focus on Mann's body, as if his eyes could penetrate Mann's body.

"I refuse to carry out the second exploration mission like this." Greck calmly and firmly put forward his appeal, "Don't play tricks with me, I am very familiar with that set of things.

"If you didn't need my skills, I would have died long ago."

He is doing what the upper level 0 employees have done before, and he is proposing what he wants
Marne sat down in front of him unhurriedly:
"You're not stupid, but you should be aware of a problem.

"I know what you want, and you know what I want, but I have much more chips than you, and I can waste the resources in my hand at will, but you can't afford to lose even once.

"You only have one life."

Greg showed a "you're right" expression and shook his head as if admitting defeat.

"Well, I don't have much room to refute. You are a strong man, not only controlling my life and death, but also depriving me of my strength." He said with his head slightly lowered, "So I really have to let you dictate this path.

"Although it is not clear what is going on, it seems that the Federation seems to have miscalculated its opponent."

Greg raised his hand unhurriedly and said:

"But before sending me to the next mission, I would like to ask you to listen to a few words from me. If you are still unwilling to change your mind after listening, I will stand up and carry out the second mission.

"I know the guy who caught me. He should be Shen Zhihe, a member of the Salvation Alliance. From what I know, you don't seem to be so free. Randomly grabbing low-level ability users will definitely bring you risks. , so if you don't even want to listen to these few words...

"Then I shall gladly die."

Greg looked at Marne calmly:

"After all, I'm just a prisoner. This is the worst behavior I can do. The outcome between us was decided long before I was caught. I can't shake your victory, but at least I can make myself lose." Be decent."

Marne nodded slightly to him:

"Tell me?"

Greg said with respect in his expression:

"It seems to me that it would probably be better for you to give us prisoners a little hope than to maintain the present situation, as I am sure you have thought of.

"However, as a real prisoner, I can share some of my own experience. You have the technology to control our strength and teleport us, but you can't directly judge our life and death, and what is in front of me is likely to be executed. to the death task.

"This feeling of being doomed to death and not being able to see any light makes me feel heavy despair. For many people, this horror may be higher than death. I believe that there will be many smart people who choose to end their lives." life.

"Moreover, most of your prisoners should have been able to decide the life and death of ordinary people. Being reduced to this kind of situation would make them feel extremely unacceptable, and may even cause them to react hysterically.

"Even if rationality tells them that the best choice is to continue the mission after mission and survive as long as possible, this is not the path that those capable people who once claimed to be superhuman will choose. They will try to escape, work passively, or even It is against you directly.

"They're bound to lose, you're always going to win, that's a fact.

"But you can get more benefits than now, as long as you give them some visible hope, like a carrot hanging in front of a donkey, they will not choose a path worse than death in despair, but find ways live on.

"You can even use the resources at hand to let us do fatal tasks that are absolutely impossible to perform, such as giving their family some money that is useless to you.

"Everyone is afraid of death, but when we have no choice, we all want to die with less regret. In other words, we all hope that our death will have a little meaning, even if it is false.

"What do you think of that idea?"

Mann nodded:

"You're right."

In fact, he already had the same idea. If he wanted to send these 0-level employees to die, he couldn't just rely on the threat of death, but he originally thought that he shouldn't have to spend time on it in a short time.

However, the man in front of him put forward what he thought in his heart, and he kept a very low attitude when he spoke. Even when he told the information he had, he still maintained his superficial respect for himself.

Such a guy can't be dealt with casually, but relatively speaking...

His ability will also be stronger than other employees, and this will help Marne successfully obtain the weapons in the tower, and when his life is completely controlled, this kind of guy who thinks clearly is better than other employees. A person with more abilities is much safer, there is no possibility of intentionally screwing up the task.

As he continues to recruit 0-level employees, if he wants to keep the more capable people among them, he must let them see hope, otherwise they will resist through negative tasks at worst.

Of course, this is under the premise of limited resources.

Mann said:

"There is something we want on the tower you saw at the time. If you can take it out smoothly, I will consider your proposal."

Greg nodded gratefully:

"Thank you for listening.

"Then before this mission is completed, you already have the 100% loyalty of me and Ruddy. As long as I am still alive, I will give my best to carry out this mission, and Ruddy will even be willing to die for it.

"Because I would put my mission above his life, and he trusted me a lot.

"Of course, unless there is no choice, I can't let him take risks.

"He's the only friend left."

He didn't ask Ma En what he would give in return, nor did he show curiosity about it, not only because he wanted Ma En to feel his sincerity, but also because it was meaningless to ask questions now.

Only after completing this mission can he get the real answer. No matter how much Ma En promises now, it may not come true. He can change his mind at any time, and if Ma En wants to play him, he will be able to see it sooner or later.

Greg didn't ask for much, just a road leading to freedom, even if the purpose of this road is not to let them leave here, so it is difficult and difficult to pass through, it doesn't matter, as long as there is an end exist……

He can go.
