Chapter 686: The death of O5-1; the great split!
The audience is stunned. They are seeing such a scene for the first time—one of the highest decision-makers of the organization, in the highest meeting of the organization, publicly proposing that the organization change its goal, or dissolve on the spot.
This is too crazy!
Even if the councilors who were inclined to O5-7 from the attitude before, after they expressed their position, it is hard to say whether they will stand on their side in the future.
"Ah? O5-7 is playing so big?"
"No way, dissolve the Foundation?"
……
The final moment seems to have arrived.
But the result is beyond all the audience's expectations.
Those who voted in favor are 4, 6, 7, 8, 11, 12.
Those who voted against are 1, 2, 3, 5, 9, 10.
And the only abstention vote, O5-13.
In favor 6—Against 6—Abstention 1.
The motion was neither passed nor rejected.
O5-1 looks at the inconspicuous O5-13, and their eyes are almost sparking, wanting to burn the robot to ashes.
"Number Thirteen. I order you as the moderator of the Overseer Council to choose between the in favor or against options."
"Heh." The robot laughs.
"I'm sorry, Number One, I am never responsible for adjudicating such meaningless debates."
……
Such a result is undoubtedly beyond the expectations of most of the audience.
No one ever thought that O5-7's crazy-sounding motion would receive support from so many councilors.
"Could it be that within the Overseer Council, there is also considerable dissatisfaction with the Foundation's current goals?"
"Is there a possibility that the others just worried that O5-7 would lose face, so they voted in favor?"
"Do you think this is a beauty pageant... impossible, but now all the pressure is on O5-13."
"I am quite curious why this robot would abstain. According to the Foundation's rules, shouldn't it follow a certain councilor?"
"Maybe the current situation doesn't fit its program design?... Perhaps there are other factors?"
……
Another round of voting begins. ===== CHAPTER 688 =====
