Wasteland Code Survival Chapter 878: PROM Foundation

"Perhaps because of differences in ideas, or perhaps they are jealous of my new life. Gradually, an irreparable rift has appeared between me and the other eight people."

"They used to be amazing and brilliant. Everyone is an elite in human society. They used to have lofty and lofty ideals... But as time goes by, they Now it's just a mummy lying in the life-saving capsule, and only the desire for power is left in his mind...and the desire for longevity."

Qin said to himself, although there was no emotion in his tone, the kind of dissatisfaction and dislike Qi Lin could be fully felt.

"Then are you going to break with them now?" Qi Lin asked.

"I broke with them a long time ago."

"Then now...?" Qi Lin was a little puzzled. Since he had broken up long ago, why would Qin continue to stay in the organization? Could the other eight people still live with him peacefully in this situation?

"I broke with them, not with the organization. As the founders of the organization, the nine of us have the same level of authority, and no matter what happens, we have no right to deprive each other of their lives. I will not violate the pledge made together, and neither will they.” Qin Qilin explained.

"Are you so sure that they will not turn back?" Although he did not have deep contact with this circle, he also understood that in the face of power, any pledge can be regarded as a dead letter, don't talk about the spirit of contract Now, when the benefits reach a certain level, the so-called spirit of contract is just a joke.

Family affection, friendship, and love can be discarded at any time. Only by unscrupulous means can we successfully climb to the pinnacle of power.

"No, politicians have no bottom line and can do anything for the sake of power, but we are not politicians. We were just a group of people gathered together for the future of mankind...I have worked with them for more than half Century, I know them and they know me very well..."

"Then do you still say they desire power and longevity?"

"But when chasing desire, they have always maintained their bottom line, otherwise they will not tolerate me, a guy who has been in contact with the mastermind, still staying under their noses."

"You really have a leg with the mastermind!" Qi Lin was stunned. No wonder Qin was able to obtain so many extremely secret information, and even biochemical people as his bodyguards. If these things are connected with the mastermind, Then everything makes sense, but Qi Lin wondered why, as one of the founders of the organization, he chose to contact the mastermind?

Shouldn’t the organization and the mastermind be deadly enemies?

Qi Lin Dang even raised this question.

"Incompatible with the main mind? Do you know the original intention of the organization?"

"Isn't it against the mastermind?"

"No, how many years have the mastermind been created... Before the mastermind appeared, organizations already existed in this world, and our original intention was exactly the same as the mastermind: we want to make war , Hunger and hatred disappear from this world. We want to allow the human race to survive forever."

"Is this your ideal of'lofty and lofty'?" Qi Lin's mouth twitched slightly... This ideal is indeed lofty and lofty enough, but throughout thousands of years of human history, there is no One person or any force can achieve this goal.

To completely eliminate war, hunger, and hatred, to be honest, even God cannot do it.

"Yes, before the outbreak of the Third World War, we tried our best to stop it, but we failed in the end. However, through this unstoppable war, we became a human world. The most powerful force among them...sounds, doesn't it sound ironic?" Qin said mockingly.

"It's a little bit...but what I'm curious about is how did you connect with the mastermind?"

"This is a long story..."

At the beginning of the design, the main brain was not used to manage the refuge network. Although the situation was a bit turbulent at that time, it has not yet developed into a sign of a world war. The purpose of building the main brain is more for business and scientific research. the use of.

As a cross-age masterpiece with far surpassing the computing power of all existing supercomputers, the design of the main brain has just been proposed, which has attracted a large amount of capital injection. A consortium alone has invested more than tens of billions of dollars. Not to mention other prominent Kulai families, various world organizations and forces, independent consortia that have not joined the alliance, etc. However, among these investors, none of them provide funds in the name of the country or government. This is not because those capable powers are reluctant to spend money, but the mastermind design team rejected their funding.

From the very beginning, the mastermind’s design team has made it clear that it will not use the mastermind for politics, warfare, and other purposes. It is for this reason that it rejects funds from various countries.

At that time, the forces had not yet been able to participate in the development process of the main brain. Of course, at that time, the organization was not called an organization, but had another name: "PROM Foundation" , The name is taken from the first four letters of Prometheus (), and the name Prometheus itself also has the meaning of "foresight".

It can be said that there are very few people who really understand the past history of the organization. They are either dead or have become senior managers of the organization. In most people’s impression, the organization is a sudden The rising mysterious forces, and the meaning of organization as existence is to fight against the mastermind. Before that, even Qi Lin himself thought so.

However, the truth of things is always hidden behind layers of disguise. Many times what people think of as "truth" is just one of these many layers of disguise.

At that time, the PROM Foundation not only invested 1.5 billion US dollars in the research and development of the main brain, and more importantly, among the nine people who founded the organization, three people also joined with their own knowledge and abilities. In the R&D team of the main brain.

And Qin is one of them.

In fact, the main brain is something created by the organization, but at that time, the organization was still called the "PROM Foundation", and the main brain had not yet born self-consciousness.

"After knowing that the self-awareness of the mastermind was born, most of us, in fact, did not feel happy...As seniors in the industry, we felt a great fear of the intelligence presented by the mastermind. This fear It does not come from the impressions brought by those science fiction movies of the old age, but we deeply understand that when two kinds of wisdom consciousness with different life forms live in the same world, irreconcilable contradictions will eventually arise. "

"Like'Utopia Project'?" Qi Lin tried to ask.

"Yes... Utopia project, this is one of the products of contradiction. As an intelligent consciousness evolved from AI, the main brain will naturally regard the thinking consciousness stored in the matrix as a form of life. It will think that storing human thoughts in a hard disk can save this race that was almost extinct due to war, but you and I know that this plan is not only full of unforeseen risks, but also leads to more Serious result-just imagine, would you consider a series of data in existence and dot matrix as life? Would you think that transferring the consciousness of all mankind to the virtual world is equivalent to continuation of mankind? ?"

Qin paused for a moment and continued: "There is always a huge gap between the virtual world and the real world, and it is absolutely impossible for human beings to rely on the virtual world to be'immortal'."

"So, this is why the organization opposes the mastermind?"

"One of the reasons is that before the Utopia Project was proposed by the mastermind, the other eight people had already decided to shut down the mastermind. They are all the best individuals in the human world, and for this reason, they have With pride that ordinary people don’t have, they can’t tolerate their creations over their heads. They didn’t even regard the self-aware mastermind as a'life' from the beginning."

"What about you? What do you think?"

"I don’t know... To be honest, that period of time can be said to be the most confused day in my life. I am often stuck in pain and struggle. I don’t know what to do right, I can’t Really make a definition for the mastermind that has awakened self-consciousness...During that time, I almost read all the philosophical works in human history (this philosophy is not a philosophy, the smelly kid decides himself, please), but I The more books I read, the more confused my mind... It was during that time that I gradually moved away from the power core of the organization."

……

……

After nearly two hours of long talk, Qi Lin finally understood the ins and outs of all this. After being rejected by the other eight people, Qin gradually realized that the development of the organization had deviated from the original track. They used to try their best to avoid war, but now, they have become the initiators of war. Qin wants to solve the contradiction between mankind and mastermind through non-war methods, and this idea, in the eyes of others, It's completely whimsical.

Until in an accidental attempt, Qin was surprised to find that the main brain was separated into two independent consciousnesses... And the main brain that has always been in contact with Qin is the other and Qi Lin. The mastermind who had communicated and wanted Qi Lin to "kill" himself.

Qin called it the "second mastermind."

Although there is no difference in the data framework, the thinking mode of the second mastermind is closer to humans... or that it is consciously imitating human thinking.

Qin knew the identity of Qi Lin from the very beginning, and that's what happened when he hinted that Qi Lin would take out the pure energy crystal from Test Body No. 1 and absorb it.

The second mastermind shared a lot of information with Qin. If Qi Lin is a bet held by the second mastermind, then Qin is a reliable partner of the second mastermind at this gaming table.

"The second master thinks that you can play a decisive role. Although I do not agree with this point, I will not object to it... Eggs can never be put in a basket, right?"

"Am I a basket?" Qi Lin suddenly felt that this metaphor seems to be cursing...

"I am willing to help you, which is equivalent to investing in you...but I can’t put all my hopes on you, so I can’t leave you in the sixth district. , The next road, you have to go by yourself."

Qin pointed, and a holographic projection screen appeared in the air.

"You are now wanted by both the organization and the Revolutionary League, and the most important thing is that they all know that you have had contact with the mastermind." Qin said, pointing to the picture on the screen, "but the only good news is Neither the organization nor the Revolutionary League ~IndoMTL.com~ knows about the existence of the'second mastermind'. They always think that they are in contact with you as the mastermind. For this reason, they will be very afraid of your position. After all, If for this reason the war with the mastermind is to go ahead, neither the Revolutionary League nor the organization is fully prepared."

"The Revolutionary League does not know the existence of the second mastermind?"

"I don’t know, the Revolutionary League is just the **** of the first mastermind. Do you think the first mastermind will tell them this? Among all people, the only ones who know the second mastermind exist are you and me. Individuals only."

"Does the first mastermind know of contact with the second mastermind?"

"I know, and it is for this reason that the first mastermind will disclose the information to the Revolutionary Federation through special means, so that the Revolutionary Federation will arrest you." Qin nodded solemnly.

"Grass." At this time, Qi Lin couldn't say anything other than swearing... After feelings returned to the ground, they not only had to face the hunting forces sent by the Revolutionary League and the organization, but also beware of the first An ambush that the main brain might set up... and the power that the main brain can mobilize above the surface is definitely greater than the sum of the two organizations.

This road to escape was much worse than Qi Lin had expected the worst.

"I’d like to give you a suggestion. When you are attacked by one of the organization or the Revolutionary League, you should be as close to the other side as possible. The organization and the Revolutionary League are not willing to let you fall into the other’s hands. Therefore, they would rather not catch you by themselves than let the other party catch you. You can make good use of this." Qin said suddenly.

"Then what if I meet the mastermind?"

"Run, run as fast as possible."
