Chapter 285

"Investigate! Must investigate thoroughly! Investigate everything inside and out!"

"Damn it, before the Fourth War, even the company wouldn't do things like assassinating presidential candidates. The Human Revolutionary Alliance never did it either. It's really going back as we live!"

"How dare they? How can anyone dare!?"

Regardless of whether it was true or false, everyone in the entire Land of Redemption was boiling. Whether it was the six presidential candidates, the extraordinary beings in the Land of Redemption, or more clerks, and the common people living in this Land of Redemption, almost everyone was so indignant, and some even began to organize parades.

Wu Pifu, as the person involved, was calm enough. He didn't even have any expression. He still strolled through the entire town with a calm and happy smile, then returned to the guild hall to sleep at night, and continued to eat and stroll on the street as usual the next day, looking leisurely and idle.

Gao Zhanggong returned the next afternoon. As soon as he returned, he learned that Wu Pifu had been attacked, and it was by something like a super electromagnetic railgun.

Although this is definitely not the cutting-edge weapon of 29th-century humans, this is just like someone from a certain small day in the 21st century can be killed by a homemade pistol. If you really want to assassinate, you can't use an atomic bomb to bomb, right?

Being able to use this kind of weapon is already very exaggerated.

The key is that this weapon is not a single-soldier weapon, nor is it a portable weapon. It requires a base frame of more than three meters, and it also needs stable electrical energy filling. Just the layout requires several people to spend half a day to complete. It is definitely not an assassination that can be done temporarily by a sudden idea, and it must have the assistance of the power faction in the Land of Redemption. Just relying on a few company spies is impossible.

Although Gao Zhanggong already knew that Wu Pifu was safe and sound, he was still full of lingering fear. When he saw Wu Pifu, his face turned from brown to pale, looking like a treacherous official on the stage.

"... Let me catch my breath." Gao Zhanggong sat down tremblingly, holding the chair, and breathed out after a long time.

Before he could speak, and before Gao Zhanggong could speak, the office door was slammed open, and Wu Pifu saw a familiar woman dragging a young man and rushing in.

"Damn, you scared me to death!"

This woman ran to Wu Pifu and looked around carefully, confirming that Wu Pifu was not some ghost, and then patted her chest and breathed.

This woman was also an acquaintance of Wu Pifu, known in the Battle of Redemption, named Lin Nianzhi, and the young man she dragged was named Wang Yihui, who was also a comrade-in-arms who fought side by side in the Battle of Redemption.

Not only did Lin Nianzhi run over in a hurry, but Wang Yihui, who was dragged by her, also had an anxious face, but at this time he was relaxed.

Wu Pifu said puzzledly: "Is it that exaggerated? Isn't it just being attacked and then coming back? What are you doing, making it look like you are going to die yourselves."

Gao Zhanggong said with a bitter smile: "If you die, we are almost going to die too. Although it is not necessarily the death of life, it must be the death of our aspirations and ideals."

Seeing that Wu Pifu was still puzzled, Wang Yihui said to Wu Pifu while tidying up his messy clothes: "Brother Wu, we have already stood on your side. If you are gone, we will inevitably be squeezed out by the other six presidential candidates. This is very complicated, involving 29th-century human politics, etc. In short, now we all rely on you to live."

Wu Pifu was immediately dissatisfied and said: "Forget it, I don't want to be any president! This damn thing is Chu Minghao forcing a duck onto the shelf, directly making me some presidential candidate. What do you think I can do? Go on stage and perform martial arts?"

But unexpectedly, several people laughed. Wang Yihui explained: "Brother Wu might have misunderstood. Our president can really perform martial arts on stage if you are willing, because after having the Main Brain, the president's task is actually more to supervise the Main Brain, rather than really managing things. This itself is a multiple supervision and check-and-balance system, in order to avoid situations like the Finalizer. Conversely, a powerful president like Mr. Chu Minghao is a very rare thing. Among the past presidents, only the first-generation super-brain president and the sixth-generation super-brain president are exceptions."

Wu Pifu naturally didn't understand 29th-century politics, but he understood it, so he said: "Something like ruling by doing nothing? A human seal?"

Wang Yihui nodded immediately and said: "A bit like this, but the power is also very great. The most important power is naturally to obtain part of the underlying program control of the Main Brain. Super-brain possessors will obtain more. In short, if Brother Wu really becomes president, it doesn't matter if you don't manage things. Anyway, you have a super-brain, and you are also a human countermeasure means to restrain the Main Brain."

Gao Zhanggong also helped to explain on the side: "The Main Brain is essentially a crystallization creation of multiple composite singularity technologies, and the most important thing is that several super-brain brains are constructed as the underlying program. Why can super-brain and latent super-brain users directly become presidential candidates? It is because super-brain possessors have a certain degree of counter-restraint power against the Main Brain."

Wu Pifu thought about it after hearing this, and he also roughly understood why latent super-brains could awaken at the Main Brain.

At this time, Lin Nianzhi and Wang Yihui both found a place to sit down. Lin Nianzhi said: "I have led the team to vote for you, so live well, you know?"

Wu Pifu thought for a while and said: "Then what benefits do you have? I mean after supporting me to become president."

The three of them laughed. Wang Yihui said: "Brother Wu still doesn't understand? The biggest benefit is that as your campaign team and staff, after you become president, if you are interested in politics, you can participate in various affairs of the human government. If you are not interested in politics, then the biggest benefit is the sharing of the underlying architecture of the Main Brain. Simply put, it is a super-brain-like ability. This can make us become supermen. Not to mention anything else, just say a simple learning ability. We can immediately learn knowledge that others can only learn in ten years in one day, as if learning like a superman. Isn't this enough?"

Wu Pifu was shocked, surprised again and again, and said: "What!? I am a genius!?" The three of them were stunned, and for a while, they didn't understand what Wu Pifu wanted to express. After several seconds, the three of them laughed at the same time. Lin Nianzhi patted Wu Pifu on the shoulder while laughing and said: "You kid is so good at telling cold jokes. Sorry, before you awaken the super-brain, you don't have any super-brain ability at all. If you want to be a genius, at least wait until you awaken."

After laughing, the atmosphere eased. Wang Yihui waited for a few seconds and said: "Brother Wu, you didn't break out immediately. This is a good thing, because of your attack, the other six presidential candidates must express their stance, so the presidential proxy meeting can no longer be delayed. This is one. And two, in order to show that they are not the mastermind behind the attack on you, the possibility of your proposal being passed will also increase greatly. As for the attacker..."

"There is no attacker."

Wu Pifu said indifferently: "There is no one at the shooting point that attacked me. It is an automatic program."

Lin Nianzhi hadn't reacted yet, but Wang Yihui and Gao Zhanggong's faces changed.

"... It really has something to do with the company or the Human Revolutionary Alliance."

Wang Yihui muttered. Seeing Wu Pifu puzzled, he immediately explained: "Currently, the Land of Redemption prohibits all artificial intelligence or automatic programs. According to Mr. Chu Minghao, non-intelligent intelligent programs are easily slowly eroded by external pollution. Before the Land of Redemption expands to five million square kilometers, try not to use any artificial intelligence and automatic programs... So, this is the sign of the company or the Human Revolutionary Alliance!"

Wu Pifu sat on the chair and didn't speak. Wang Yihui said to Gao Zhanggong: "General Gao, it seems that our previous speculation is gradually coming true. As Mr. Chu Minghao is trapped in the Weekend for a longer time, the erosion of the Land of Redemption by the company and the Human Revolutionary Alliance is greater."

Gao Zhanggong sighed and said: "The key is that the six presidential candidates do not have the power to restrain the company and the Human Revolutionary Alliance now. Their power is still sleeping. Humanity has only awakened 300,000 living people so far. The six of them don't have their family and government foundation, and relying on them alone is useless."

"Then solve it quickly."

Wu Pifu clapped his hands, and the three of them looked at him.

!

"When is the earliest the presidential proxy meeting can be held?" Wu Pifu asked.

Gao Zhanggong said immediately: "Theoretically, as long as all seven presidential candidates are present and have a legitimate reason, they can hold a meeting overnight tonight. But I have only contacted three teams. The top extraordinary beings who fought side by side with us before have not responded yet, and there is also the momentum building..."

"No need, just tonight."

Wu Pifu stood up and said: "You send someone to notify the other six, and hold a presidential proxy meeting tonight."

Gao Zhanggong was shocked and was about to speak, but Wang Yihui blocked in front and asked in a deep voice: "Brother Wu, is it appropriate to do this? You know, if you really do it, that is to cut yourself off from the unified human government. This is really a shocking event!"

Wu Pifu walked out of the room and said while walking: "I am willing to treat them as humans, but if they don't act like humans themselves, then I won't treat them as humans... In my dictionary, monsters have no pain."

These words were ambiguous, but Wang Yihui nodded silently.

After Wu Pifu walked out of the room, Lin Nianzhi couldn't help but ask: "What do you mean? What big event? What human or not human? Could it be that there are monsters lurking among the six presidential candidates?"

Gao Zhanggong also came to his senses at this time. He looked complicated and looked at Wang Yihui.

Wang Yihui shook his head and said: "Just do as Brother Wu said. Long nights bring many dreams. Even if rescuing Mr. Chu Minghao is the righteousness, even if Brother Wu has the entrance to the 0.3 Dream World, even if they have no reason to oppose, but novels talk about logic, reality doesn't talk about this at all. They can even collude with the company and the Human Revolutionary Alliance to assassinate Brother Wu, who knows if they will really oppose and delay? If another one enters the Dream World and is not there, not to mention anything else, dragging this meeting for a few months, I don't know if Mr. Chu Minghao can continue to hold on..."

"At this time, you have to take strong medicine! Let Mr. Wu Pifu be reckless!"

"Because..."

Wang Yihui in the room and Wu Pifu who had walked out of the hall said the same words almost at the same time.

"A hero's anger, blood splashes five steps!"

At 9 o'clock that night, the first presidential proxy meeting of the new session was held in the government building.
