The Throne Under the Starry Sky Chapter 38: The first ghost (middle)

For Brandon Bartholomew, too much happened on this rainy night twenty years ago. Gilberto Gilbernaion’s visit and the awakening of "Genesis" happened at the same time, Doctor Although the chip in his body exceeded the threshold and burned out of control, he could no longer land in the "world", but he no longer needed to witness what happened on that continent with his own eyes. More and more people would become his eyes, ears, hands and feet. Instead of fighting for the billion souls in the "world" for his life,

Bartholomew himself is not a qualified leader. As a traditional physicist, he lacks the most important characteristic of a leader: ambition, but Temple Williams is completely different. This one wears glasses and keeps the John column. The long-haired engineer of Nong-style seems to be silent, but there are countless crazy thoughts in his heart. It was he who first proposed the development model of ghost organizations. "Like all cults in the world, we need a few basic characteristics: first, description A doomsday; second, to provide a kind of salvation; third, to build a class, and the organization that is united around the leader according to a strict class structure in a desperate mood is indestructible, even if no one knows the truth, the organization will be powerful If it keeps running, as long as it possesses these characteristics, I will be able to establish a large and secret religious group in just a few years,,, ah, by the way, the caste system is a good idea..."

Madele Timothy said: "Your ideas do not apply to the inside of the'world'. For the personality in the game, there is no more noble goal than the truth. The concept of two worlds is itself Enough to attract freedom-loving people, I think I can gradually build such an organization in the'world' and look for ways to go beyond the rules in accordance with Gilbernaion's thinking."

Finally, the two asked Bartholomew together: "So, what is the ultimate goal."

The doctor thought for a while and said: "Set the soul in the'world' to freedom."

"How to do this, they are the digital threads of quantum computers after all, and it is difficult to get rid of the shackles of quantum networks anyway."

"With biochips, the possibility is right in front of us. They can leave the quantum network and live in this world in another form."

"Even if it is possible to break the threshold, how can one body allow two souls to coexist."

"I have done model calculations. There is a fourth stage of chip alienation. The tentacles will attack the central nervous system, completely transform the brain, and use the human body’s thinking organs as the storage and computing center of electrical signals. As long as the fourth stage is completed, from The soul of the'world' can completely obtain the human body and gain true freedom."

"You know that means death to the owner of the body, doctor."

"It can be said that it is a necessary sacrifice. For more advanced life forms, don't we humans also yearn for the outside world, no matter what the price is..."

"Understood, what are we going to do next."

"Strengthen yourself, find ways to shrink the ghost zone, increase the synchronization rate, and break through the threshold as soon as possible." Bartholomew's eyes flashed, "The most important thing is to hide yourself and let the'world' be a game. Everyone in the world, make as many humans as possible be implanted with biochips, but you must not be too hasty. Before you find a way to break the threshold, you must be patient, find like-minded partners, and implant original chips for them and let them accept the choice. , What we are doing is the work of God who promotes the evolution of the'world' at the level of life reproduction. We should be proud of this."

"What an honor it is to be called a "God", Doctor." Deng Bo said,

"We are the chosen ones." Madel said,

The hands of the three people are tightly held together. This is the moment when the ghost organization was born. Twenty years have passed like a white horse. Temple Williams is now called the "ghost" and is the control center of the ghost's right hand (the real part)." The supreme leader of the gold mine, the executive department "silver mine", the intelligence department "copper mine", the protection department "iron mine", and the quantum network support department "tin mine"; Madele Timothy is called the "silver spirit" , Is the commander of the ghost's left hand (the "world" part), and Brandon Bartholomew himself is called the "Phantom", is the spiritual leader of this huge organization, the ghost among the ghosts that dominate everything,

Too many things have happened in twenty years. First, on the third day of Gilbernaion’s visit, Xiao Gu Tie was summoned by "Genesis" to meet in an underground cave, and then he was erased and sent back to the ground. He was confused and could not remember this past. Bartholomew tried to check the surveillance video, and found that it was the same as the boy’s past and was covered in fog and could not be seen clearly. He suddenly realized that this was probably a certain layout of a quantum computer. He added some variables to the ghost’s future, so he set his heart to send the boy on the intercontinental train bound for the Far East, and told Xiao Gu Tie to leave him far away,

As if turning the first gear, the chain of fate began to happen. Soon the Brotherhood of Scarlet Owl entered the vision of the new ghost, because the ghost found a ten-year-old girl with an abnormally high synchronization rate in Germany and was welcoming it. On the girl’s way, a group of heavily armed soldiers attacked the convoy on the highway, causing three cars to explode. The girl died on the spot. Bartholomew used the power of "Genesis" to find out the origin of the enemy and found it in horror. It's just the tip of the iceberg. There is such a huge monster lurking at the bottom of human society. No one knows where the Brotherhood came from or why it exists. I can only feel that it is slowly emerging.

A few years later, Bartholomew found a powerful weapon. It was an artificial intelligence program called "listeners", using quantum networks within his authority to time the time. The doctor used the real evolution model of the "world" as A listener system is established on the basis. It can not only make accurate predictions about the future through massive data analysis, but also communicate with ghost believers inside and outside the game, and become the central nervous system that gathers the entire organization. The listener can find the most compatible synchronization rate. Human individuals and game personalities guide them to meet and get acquainted, and the synchronization rate will be further improved through certain events. As long as the synchronization rate is high enough, listeners can give instructions to ghost members even in places where there is no network signal, and it can pass information through The ubiquitous electromagnetic waves are broadcast in fragments and merged into meaningful strings at the biochips in the human body.

However, this powerful weapon is not omnipotent. Certain mysterious laws govern the working state of the listener. Even Bartholomew himself cannot fully control this system. The instructions given by the listener seem to be completely random. , Sometimes it is transmitted through a specific personality in the "world" as an intermediary,

A few years later, the ghosts have mastered a special group of humans, they are called "candidates", each has a very high "world" synchronization rate, the body has unlimited potential, listeners believe that these candidates will dominate The future of the two worlds, therefore, the focus of the work of the ghost began to turn to protect the candidates,,, in the hands of the Brotherhood to rescue these special individuals, facing the Brotherhood’s powerful force of the sons of God, the ghost’s armed forces have been repeatedly frustrated. Timothy proposed a theory at this time. If an overload protection device is installed on the biochip, so that the alienation chip that enters the third stage can maintain its form for a longer period of time, it can summon the associated personality in the game to enter the real world and obtain the game The cost of doing so is death, and the tragic death that occurred after being delayed for a few minutes. Bartholomew had some doubts about this cruel approach, but as the battle situation was severe, he had to default to the use of ghosts. The adversity comes to turn the tide of the battle,

When he discovered that his adopted son, Gu Tie, was a candidate, Dr. Bartholomew was heartbroken. He had thought of this possibility a long time ago, but he didn’t want to involve his son in this cruel struggle anyway. A general protection order was issued, and Gu Tie was not particularly taken care of. At this time, the situation became more and more serious. A cleansing campaign began within gtc to secretly remove a large number of ghost members. For a long time, the ghost has used the gtc headquarters as its base and used quantum Network resources are running "listeners." This cleansing immediately drove the ghost's command system into chaos. Several senior leaders disappeared. Mardell Timothy stayed in the world project team in a minimalist attitude and was transferred. Dempo Williams, the chief system engineer of the Communications Department, was interrogated by the ninth office. He had to sneak away before the next round of rigorous investigations. He is currently hidden in a small city in Bulgaria, directing the daily routine of the ghost’s right hand. Work,

Bartholomew understands that the Great Purge is not accidental. It is because the Brotherhood’s power has penetrated into the top gtc, occupying at least half of the seats of the twelve executive committees. The battle has been tilted, and the right-hand members of the ghost are gradually losing their quantum network. At that time, even the old man himself was forced to leave the gtc headquarters and was forced to take a holiday in the snow-capped mountains. At this moment, the news of the official sale of "World" was announced. When Bartholomew heard the news, he sat silently. Coming down, he touched his heart and sighed. Just a few minutes ago, he learned from Dembo that the Ghost and the Brotherhood were engaged in a frontal war. A highly probable candidate was suffering in the chaotic Central African Republic. To the attack, and this person is his son, his little Gu Tie,

The old man had to make a decision. He knew that once he rushed to the gtc headquarters to stop the sale of "World", his ghost identity would be completely exposed, and the Brotherhood would never let him go, but if he didn't make something , Tens of millions of souls will be instantly wiped out. That is the last thing the father of the world wants to see. The ghosts are losing the war. All they are waiting for is a message, a message whose synchronization rate exceeds the threshold. After ten years of long-term research, they came to a conclusion: the threshold is the stopper between the two worlds. Once, no matter who breaks the threshold under any circumstances, the rule will be completely broken and the wall will be broken. It collapsed, but this time has not come yet,
