Chapter 282: Details and Methods

Wu Wu Pifu was not skilled in politics; he could be said to be completely clueless. He was also not a great orator. Compared to language, he preferred legal principles—the "law" of blade techniques and the "reason" of physics.

He could not solve difficult problems, but he could solve the people who created them.

This was too crude, but it was also his only method.

However, he was also willing to listen carefully and discern first. Now, he possessed intuition and partial sensory capabilities from his Super-Brain, and even the strengthening effect of Observation Haki. Unless someone had specialized extraordinary abilities or strength far exceeding his own, it was almost impossible for them to lie in front of him.

This was enough. He was willing to talk to the other six presidential candidates, but if anyone thought they could treat him like a fool, he wouldn't mind beating them into fools.

In any case, he didn't care for this so-called presidential candidate status, or even the status of president itself. He only needed to be able to rescue Chu Minghao.

Gao Zhanggong naturally didn't know Wu Wu Pifu's plans. After obtaining Wu Wu Pifu's affirmative decision, he began to think about how to build momentum for Wu Wu Pifu and how to build momentum for rescuing Chu Minghao.

Next, Gao Zhanggong introduced the current situation of the Land of Redemption to Wu Wu Pifu.

"Since Mr. Chu Minghao was sealed into the Weekend, the Land of Redemption initially operated according to inertia. But now, after more than a hundred days, the situation has changed. The entire Land of Redemption, or rather our human civilization, now has three major factions."

"The first faction is the supporters of Mr. Chu Minghao, including myself. We are personnel of this faction, occupying more than seventy or eighty percent of the entire Land of Redemption. However, most of them are ordinary maintenance personnel and ordinary citizens."

"The second faction is the six major presidential candidates. They have names, people, and power. By the way, you might not know our presidential candidate system. Every time, there will only be seven presidential candidates. When this term's president takes office and obtains the underlying authority from the Main Brain, the other seven presidential candidates will be selected. Then, during the president's twenty-year term, these twenty years are the observation period and election period for the seven presidential candidates."

"Let's not talk about these; they are all very complicated. I can tell you slowly later. Now let's talk about the election system for the seven presidential candidates. During the twenty-year term of the previous president, the Main Brain will calculate the seven civil servants, or even seven social figures, who have the most merit, the most prestige, the most ability, and the most public support. Then these seven people are the presidential candidates. However, sometimes it is impossible to gather seven presidential candidates who meet the standards, so they will be selected from the eleven major clans to replace them."

"Eleven major clans?" Wu Wu Pifu asked with displeasure.

Gao Zhanggong gave a wry smile and said, "These eleven major clans are not just about assets and the like; they are also worthy of this honor... You know about the Third War, right?"

Wu Wu Pifu nodded.

Gao Zhanggong said, "The Third War was led by Azure to lead humanity to defeat the biochemical beasts, then rebuild human civilization, and purify the Earth's environment. It can be said to be a savior-like organization. Therefore, after the Third War, Azure became the only organization of the unified human government, controlling all the authority of human civilization. Then... absolute power equals absolute corruption. Gradually, Azure degenerated and decayed, which led to the occurrence of the End-Producer event."

"And these eleven families were the core force resisting Azure at that time. These eleven families, like the Thirteen Singularity Companies, made great contributions to overthrowing Azure at that time, which is why they have this honor of the people thanking them. Mr. Chu Minghao's Chu family is one of them. Besides that, there are the Xu family, the Zhu family, the Li family, the Tang Bosen family... and so on."

"This time, Mr. Chu Minghao made a great contribution to the Main Brain and human civilization, a contribution no less than the savior level, so he could directly take office as the president of the unified human government. Otherwise, he would have to go to the new solar system for a general election. Therefore, when he took office, he could not establish presidential candidates based on merit and other aspects, so he could only choose from the eleven major clans that had already been awakened. Originally, seven people should have been chosen, but Mr. Chu Minghao proposed you, Mr. Wu."

Wu Wu Pifu said, "Super-Brain attribute?"

Gao Zhanggong shook his head and said, "It is a potential Super-Brain attribute. If it were a Super-Brain attribute, Mr. Chu Minghao wouldn't need to propose it; the Main Brain would directly make you one of the presidential candidates. However, even if it is only a potential Super-Brain attribute, as long as someone proposes it, it will inevitably become a presidential candidate. This is also the presidential candidate system."

Wu Wu Pifu nodded to show he understood.

Actually, this was reasonable.

Those with power (strength, military force, wealth, authority) must have their status; otherwise, there will inevitably be trouble.

According to Wu Wu Pifu's past memories that appeared from time to time, even in modern civilized society, this was an inevitable rule.

And in the modern era, the world's first power at that time, the British Empire known as the empire on which the sun never sets, even had the famous wealth knighthood order. Those who reached a certain level of wealth would have a title, even if it was only a civil title and not hereditary, but this law was also a manifestation of those with power having their place.

Unless those with power were determined to go against the regime, they would certainly be absorbed as the core.

And the Super-Brain was undoubtedly the greatest power in the real universe. As long as they were not killed in advance by the Thirteen Singularity Companies or the Human Revolutionary Alliance, the Super-Brain user would inevitably become one of the strongest people of that era.

Gao Zhanggong saw that Wu Wu Pifu understood these things, so he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "So the current situation is that among the seven presidential candidates, Mr. Wu, you were selected as a potential Super-Brain user. You don't have your own family influence, foundation, and the policy direction in the hearts of the people over the years, etc. This time, the presidential proxy meeting is actually the weakest among the seven, but..."

Wu Wu Pifu already had plans in his heart, so he appeared very calm at this time. Gao Zhanggong did not hesitate after the "but" and continued, "But the current situation is already different from the past. Because of the appearance of the Dream World, the status of extraordinary people is no longer limited by maintenance personnel, citizen levels, or political factors. Up to now, all extraordinary people have been marked and recorded. During the annual presidential policy meeting, regardless of whether they are maintenance personnel, they will all be promoted to first-class citizens, and they are citizens recognized by the Main Brain."

"Fuck!" Wu Wu Pifu cursed. Gao Zhanggong was stunned for a moment, then immediately followed with a wry smile.

"There's no other way." Gao Zhanggong said, "Even if the attribute upgrade reward is wasted, becoming a citizen is necessary. Whether it's the individual space opening a partition wall, Mr. Wu should also understand this point, right?"

Wu Wu Pifu could only nod. What else? It was already used, so he could only forgive it.

Gao Zhanggong continued, "So the status of extraordinary people is very high, and the power to speak is also heavy. Besides being able to explore the Dream World, it is even more because of the Weekend!"

"Yes, this is also one of my questions."

Wu Wu Pifu said immediately, "You said before that many people stay here to do clerical work. Don't they have to spend the Weekend?"

Gao Zhanggong said, "Of course they have to spend it. Every sixty-six days, six hours, and six minutes, they will spend a Weekend, and it still uses the Gaia space where they are located as the time coordinate. Even if they come to this Land of Redemption, they cannot be exempted. However, there are also good aspects. First, with this Land of Redemption, the current Weekend time is not twenty-four hours, but twenty-one hours. According to the original rule that the danger increases significantly after twenty hours, the current Weekend difficulty has been significantly reduced. At the same time, as long as the personnel in the same area touch and link when entering the Weekend, they will be in the same place when entering the Weekend."

"This is the fundamental reason why the status of extraordinary people has been significantly improved!"

Gao Zhanggong said this, and he calculated silently, "Most extraordinary people are extremely eager to quickly rescue Mr. Chu Minghao. The reason is that as Mr. Chu Minghao was sealed into the Weekend, wandering Level 3 Nightmares have now appeared in the Dream World!"

Wu Wu Pifu felt a chill in his heart and said, "Level 3 Nightmare?"

!

Gao Zhanggong said seriously, "Yes, Level 3 Nightmare, and it uses unknown methods to specifically search for our Gaia humans. Up to now, hundreds of Gaia humans have died, and more than ten extraordinary people have died. However, the strange thing is that these Level 3 Nightmares cannot penetrate to Gaia through the shelter, but just kill our Gaia humans everywhere. Up to now, the survivors have reported no less than ten different Level 3 Nightmares, and they are completely different from the Dream World civilization and local extraordinary system where they are located. They are completely external forces!"

After saying this, Gao Zhanggong pulled the topic back and said, "In short, because of the appearance of this Level 3 Nightmare, everyone is now in danger. Everyone also knows that Mr. Chu Minghao must have suppressed all these dangers at the beginning. Now among the extraordinary people, almost the vast majority have agreed to rescue Mr. Chu Minghao. This is a huge force, because it includes six presidential candidates. They all have a large number of extraordinary people under their command, and they also have to worry about this!"

Wu Wu Pifu naturally nodded continuously. He had already drunk half of this bottle of brandy, and in his heart, he had already started thinking about how to act tough at the meeting... no, how to lose his temper.

Gao Zhanggong saw Wu Wu Pifu's appearance, shook his head with a laugh, and then his expression became very serious again, "The above is the rescue proposal problem we need to face, as well as our help. But Mr. Wu, the proposal has passed, but the rescue has actually just begun, because the greatest difficulty comes from needing to break into the Weekend, which is... we must attack the Benchmark Reality 0.3 Dream World!"

Wu Wu Pifu's expression also became serious.

0.3 Dream World...

Such a world has a root-level terrifying existence.

In terms of a terrifying existence like the Unborn Mother who can create the world, the world where she is located is only the 0.2 Dream World, only one layer lower than the 0.3 Dream World. From this, one can imagine how terrifying the 0.3 Dream World is.

"... It's not just the terror of the 0.3 Dream World."

Gao Zhanggong said with an extremely serious face, "The deepest Dream World where we have established a shelter is 0.6. We can penetrate downward to 0.5 through this shelter, and then to 0.4. Only after all this is achieved can we enter the 0.3 Dream World. This is actually the reason why the unified human government and those four presidential candidates refused... This is almost something we cannot achieve now!"

"So, Mr. Wu needs a set of rhetoric to serve as the core of the proposal's passage. Even if it's just a lie, it must make people have this confidence. Regarding this, I have discussed with many think tank personnel and other extraordinary people. This set of rhetoric is..."

Wu Wu Pifu said plainly and directly, "No rhetoric is needed, and no deception is needed. I have a way to take you to the 0.3 Dream World."

"... The rhetoric is, we have... with Liang Min of the Human Revolutionary Alliance? Can we go to the 0.3 Dream World?"

Gao Zhanggong asked in disbelief.

"Yes."

Wu Wu Pifu laughed and said directly, "Main Brain, determine the Lost Brand..."

"Display detailed information on the coordinates of the Shadow Hall on the sixth floor of the Primal Demon Prison!"
