Pretending To Be A Boss

Chapter 479 - 85: Origin of Talents (1st Update)_2

It's as if a supercomputer, without consciousness, remains forever in standby mode. It lacks purpose and waits for someone to use it.

However, the Pyramid's various indications show that humanity is being dominated by the Orderers.

The Orderers have even created something akin to religious belief for the lords.

They refer to the Orderers as the great Masters of Order, the same self-proclaimed title on the Stele.

If it is as Xi He says, then the Orderers, these mysterious mechanical bodies without life or consciousness, must be manipulated from behind the scenes by a living, conscious being.

That person might have died, but the programs they left behind, like a precision gear instrument, have begun to slowly turn, until the day their purpose is fulfilled.

But there is another possibility.

Everything Xi He has said could be false.

Song Que was even more inclined to the latter.

"I don't believe what you say."

"That's within reason. After all, my existence and the things I've elucidated are inconsistent. If the Orderers lack life and consciousness, then what am I supposed to be?" Xi He said with a smile.

Song Que mocked:

"You're mystifying things. I know you have great power, a power humans cannot possess at this stage.

But as the leader of the Evolution Zone, it's not surprising that you have such strength. However, if you want to convince me to join your side, you need to at least reveal some substantial cards."

After a pause, Song Que continued:

"You have to prove to me that you possess something unique to the Orderers. I think if you were the Orderers, in terms of style and class, there would be value for me to align with you."

Xi He shook his head:

"Mr. Song Que, you're not being forthright. Testing me or trying to provoke me is pointless. These human emotions, I only possess a part of them, that is, the purely rational part.

But I do envy your complete reactions. Among us, there were similar anomalies before. He was the weakest, yet he received the best opportunity."

Song Que, for some reason, thought of Tang Xian.

This sudden thought made his scalp tingle.

He was enveloped by an undeniable and indescribable fear.

Xi He continued:

"Tyrants are the embodiment of human emotions taken to the extreme. On those perfectly matched with evolution genes, their hair color turns white.

Most are born that way, while a few change during their youth.

These individuals have extreme emotions, something we do not possess, and thus they hold power capable of contending with the mightiest of beasts.

All of this has been possible thanks to our re

It is also the most magnificent research in the Prophet's life — electronic genes.

It can integrate all environmental feedback more swiftly, performing micro calculations on the entire macro world. Or else, it can perform macro expansions on micro matters."
