"Five-nine" is a very strange word.
"I don't have any identity. The projection you see is a projection, but I am not that person."
"That's what I'll call you. I still have a lot of questions I want to know, and these questions represent a lot of information... Sometimes, we can understand each other better through each other's questions, not necessarily through the answers."
As to whether “May 9th” was an uprising army, “May 9th” did not make it clear.
Bai Wu did not ask any further questions. Everyone just stopped talking without going into details.
It was just a self-destructive interview introduction, but the other party told him everything he knew, which already explains a lot.
Wujiu said:
"I've said enough for today. You need to get familiar with the environment. As for your questions, you need to think about what to ask. I will answer you tomorrow."
Bai Wu nodded. He indeed needed time to ask Spade Ten and Well Six about his memories.
And what I need to get back most right now.
…
…
In the business department on the seventh floor, Bai Wu met many familiar faces.
He silently said the name.
"Yin Shuang", "Wang Shi", "Shang Xiaoyi", "Lin Wurou".
There are many familiar faces. Spade Ten said:
"The projections of these people are all subordinates of the dwarf in reality. Maybe... the most dangerous place is the safest place. The entire seventh floor, this insurance business department... is the base of the rebels."
Jing Liu unexpectedly agreed with Spade Ten's statement:
"When the gap between the two forces is too big, the weaker force should find a way to split the larger force from within."
"The seven financial groups are too strong, and the rebels are too weak. All we can do is to constantly stir up conflicts within the seven financial groups."
Bai Wu thought so too. The clients of this company were probably all social elites from the seven major financial groups.
On the surface, it is an insurance business, but in fact it is also about collecting intelligence.
As for why "Zero" forced him to assassinate in the beginning, it was probably not because he discovered that this was the rebel base, but because "Zero" belonged to a certain consortium, and it was now discovered that "Five-Nine" belonged to another consortium.
But in fact, this is only the first identity of "Wujiu".
But there is one thing that Spade Ten must admit, White Mist and Five Nine... If there is a multiverse, these two will probably become close friends no matter which world they are in.
Bai Wu's self-explosive introduction today would obviously not have the same effect if it happened to someone else.
At nightfall, Bai Wu returned to his residence and checked whether there were any surveillance devices.
Mainly monitoring equipment, because of the existence of "spy satellites", there is no safe place in this city, or in this world.
After confirming that there was no danger, Bai Wu fiddled with dinner while communicating with Spade Ten and Well Six.
Tower, Human, Evil Fall, Seven Deadly Sins, Six Tic Tac Toe, Farm, K, Five Nine, Zero…
Bai Wu briefly understood all the information.
Jing Liu's stance was complicated, but Spade Ten seemed to be completely on Bai Wu's side, summarizing the following questions:
"So what you need to know tomorrow is the following: you are in the shell of Alpha, how do you break out of it."
"Secondly, you work under Wujiu. What is your main task and what impact does it have on the real world?"
"How are you going to get your memory back, and the Seven Deadly Sins weapons? From what I've seen so far, the Seven Deadly Sins are not easy to deal with."
Bai Wu wrote down these things.
The next morning, he started his working life as an ordinary "citizen of order".
There were all kinds of people walking on the street, including students hurrying on their way, holding bread in their hands and eating it as they ran.
There were also middle-aged men holding briefcases and answering the phone.
People in the car will look at each other with resentment because of some small interactions when carpooling.
White steam was coming out of the steamed bun shop on the street.
Everything is no different from the real normal world.
It is hard to imagine that these people correspond to the various rules and parameters of the real world.
Bai Wu thought, if a nuclear bomb falls...will the concentration of distortion in the real world drop by more than half
But what should the world do
These people are so real, they are also trying their best to make a living and survive.
Maybe Jing Si was wavering back then because he discovered that the people here were real, living people with flesh and blood
A sentence suddenly popped up in Bai Wu's mind—
"Next, you will make a series of choices... that concern your soul."
This sentence comes from the Eye of Prell, some very important hints that Bai Wu always remembers.
He didn't understand what a choice involving the soul meant before, but now he suddenly understood.
"If you want to save the world, you have to be a bad guy... This may be a very contradictory proposition."
"You must continue to commit cruel acts in this world in order for the other world to gradually return to normal."
Jing Si, perhaps, is unable to make such a choice.
Bai Wu quickly put aside these disturbing thoughts.
He came to the company.
Then he went straight to the office where "Wujiu" was.
"Wujiu" comes earlier than most people and is so diligent that he doesn't seem like a leader.
When Bai Wu arrived, Wujiu had already started working.
"Here it is. Take this and have a look."
As soon as Bai Wu came in, Wujiu didn't even look up and directly handed a report to Bai Wu.
Bai Wu opened it and saw some numbers on it.
It records the people with different numbers, as well as their positions, ages, and living habits.
At the end of the day, it’s the real-world impact these people can have.
"The next list to be processed is right here."
Wujiu closed the pen in his hand, his eyes sharp:
"I have investigated you. You are indeed an outsider. Welcome to join the rebel army."
"In everyone's eyes, we are a group of villains who overthrow order. From now on, you will play the role of a five-star good citizen."
"In reality, we did all the things that five-star wanted criminals do, murder, arson, bombing buildings, we did everything."
Wow, the work content I encountered yesterday and today is completely different.
I think the next task will be to assassinate these people.
Looking at the calm and deep eyes of "Wujiu", Bai Wu didn't seem so confused anymore.
Isn't that what saving the world is all about? If every job is glamorous, then being a savior would be too easy.
As if he suddenly understood something, Bai Wu looked relaxed:
"I noticed one thing. Are the correspondences between the people on the list and reality all speculation? What is the basis for the speculation?"
"Hunter."
Bai Wu hadn't reacted yet, but Spade Ten and Jing Liu behind him frowned at the same time.
Why is the hunter involved
Ten of Spades said:
"Xiaobai, please relay my question."
Bai Wu began to relay the question from the Ten of Spades:
"I still have some impression of the Stalker. I know that the Stalker is a person who highly values order."
Wujiu nodded:
"The real world advocates order and eliminates those who are distorted. To the Well World, they are terrorists and the most dangerous existence."
Bai Wu asked again:
"But weren't most of the hunters killed by Jingyi, with only one left?"
This question made "Wujiu" even more convinced that Bai Wu was an outsider.
The answer from "Five Nine" surprised the Ten of Spades:
"Actually, there are two of them... but these two people don't know each other's existence."
“I know that hunters have very special powers. They can control the power of others by attacking them in battle.
But how can we establish a connection with the Well World and tell you the people in the Well World how they correspond to the real world?"
Bai Wu undoubtedly reached the key point. Wu Jiu said:
"Sequence Ten, the Myriad Dharmakaya, is actually only the first level of the hunter's special ability. His second level of special ability is called Divine Revelation."
"Divine revelation?" Bai Wu was puzzled, but Jing Liu behind him understood.
Because of the encounter on the flight, before killing Bai Wu, Jing Liu once tried to forcibly spy on the cause and effect.
At that time, Jing Liu saw that the hunter came to the flight through the guidance of divine revelation.
"It's a long story. I have to explain it to you slowly." Wujiu opened his water cup and took a sip of water.
Bai Wu stopped talking and sat on the sofa opposite the desk.
Wujiu said slowly:
"Yesterday, I told you about the last survivor of the last civilization—the one you called Alpha."
"He is special. If we kill him once and for all, we can put an end to the distortion."
"But don't forget, there is also the creator of the tower. If Alpha is the Lord of Distortion, then the creator of the tower can become the Lord of Order."
"He is just as special as Alpha. His only weakness is that he cannot become immortal."
"He didn't have an immortal body, so he ended up sealing Alpha and his body was destroyed. He clearly won, but he was the one who was corrupted."
Bai Wu learned some things yesterday.
The Tower Creator defeated Alpha, but Alpha survived and the Tower Creator died.
"But the Lord of Order also has a powerful soul. Before he sealed Alpha, he also created the Stalker to prevent the monsters born from Alpha's 'Well Egg' from destroying the world."
"But as you know, although the Stalkers are stronger than humans and most of the fallen, they are not as strong as the messenger of the first Alpha - the one you mentioned, Jingyi."
"Jingyi was too powerful and resourceful. He deceived the hunters one after another, and eventually led to the genocide of the hunters..."
"Once the hunter opens the divine revelation, we, the rebels and the original order camp, will feel the difference between the two worlds."
"There were many stalkers before, so we could say that we were able to constantly feel the connection between the two worlds and respond accordingly."
"But with the appearance of Jingyi... everything changed."
"In the end... there were only two hunters left. The hunter who kept in touch with us all the time has basically lived in the tower for the past seven hundred years."
Ten of Spades found this very interesting. Is there such a powerful being in the tower
So Bai Wu asked the question:
"How could such a thing exist in the tower?"
"Because the Myriad Dharmakaya can change into any form, seven hundred years ago, he was one of the seventy-two rulers. During the past seven hundred years... he transformed himself into a servant under the ruler and continued to collect intelligence."
"He will periodically issue divine revelations, bringing about changes in the two worlds. This is the basis of our speculation."
Bai Wu's memory is lost, so the only one who can infer all this is Ten of Spades, who knows Bai Wu's memory very well.
Ten of Spades said:
"This person should have been gone in the past two years, otherwise no one would be able to disguise themselves under the Eye of Prell. You'd better ask if this stalker has met with an accident."
Bai Wu asked this question:
"But I did not meet him in the tower."
Wujiu sighed:
"He was indeed not in the tower twenty years ago. In the past twenty years, we have been relying on the revelations of another hunter. As for the one in the tower... he fell in love with a human woman and gave birth to a baby girl."
"For seven hundred years... he has always worked diligently, and suddenly he has the life he wants. We can't stop him."
“But tragedy still happened.”
"What tragedy?"
A hunter who pretends to be a servant of the ruler, lives in a tower, marries and has children with the woman in the tower.
Ten of Spades suddenly thought of a woman that Bai Wu knew, who might be related to this hunter.
"He killed his wife. As for the reason, even we don't know. He received a revelation and could no longer stay in the tower because the monster on the sixth floor - the Alpha you mentioned - seemed to be very interested in the Sequence 100,000 Dharmakaya."
"If Alpha had stayed in the tower, he would have risked his soul being damaged in order to obtain Sequence 10. So in order to prevent him from succeeding, he left the tower."
"He also left behind his daughter who was only a few years old."
Killing his wife and abandoning his daughter...
If that daughter were still alive, she would probably hate her father for the rest of her life.
However, Ten of Spades guessed a possibility.
"The reason for killing my wife... may also be related to Alpha. You should know this hunter's daughter, but I can't remember it now."
Bai Wu silently remembered this sentence:
"What happened to that stalker?"
"I don't know. There's no news from him. Maybe he's dead."
Bai Wu nodded.
"I understand now. Our job is still assassination, right?"
"Yes."
"How do I return to my original world?"
"The answer to this question is not with me. The last outsider also left suddenly. Maybe you will know the answer." "Five Nine" said.
Bai Wu understood:
"Looks like I need to get my memory back, and my equipment."
"Wujiu" turned on the projector, and Bai Wu looked at the side wall and found that it was a bank building.
"The Eternal Bank under Pride has many things hidden in its vault. It is known as the safest bank. Your weapons and your memories are all in the safe in the vault of this bank."
Wujiu turned around and looked at Bai Wu:
"So next, you have two things to do. One is to get familiar with this world and develop an assassination strategy."
"Another one—robbing a bank."
As expected of a five-star wanted criminal, when he was no longer confused and had no moral concerns, Bai Wu suddenly became interested in these tasks.
