Blacklight Biotechnology already held 50% of Osmond's shares. Now with an additional 11%, it would be 66%. As the legal representative of Blacklight Biotechnology, Chen Chen naturally had the highest say in Osmond in terms of the law.
Overnight, the entire company had changed hands and the company's employees had been kept in the dark. Only Parker, after being forced to agree to all this, slumped in his seat, looking visibly older.
Although he had gotten the money, he had lost his future. His once full of ambition and the belief that he wanted to make the company bigger and stronger had collapsed in an instant. At this moment, Parker only felt that his heart was empty, as if something was missing.
After convincing the other party, Chen Chen did not stay for long. Although he saw that this Parker was quite capable, which gave Chen Chen the idea of pulling him in and making him the manager of a Blacklight Biotechnology branch, he gave up on it after thinking about it.
After pulling him in, this Parker would definitely gradually suspect where Blacklight Biotechnology's AD-001 came from and even discover that flop movie. If someone had a rich imagination, they might even speculate that Chen Chen had some kind of means of future prediction.
Moreover, this Parker was not someone who was on the same path as Chen Chen.
Therefore, Chen Chen finally extinguished his own ideas.
As Chen Chen turned around and left the office, he returned to the rooftop. He stood at the edge of the building and silently looked into the distance.
All the escape routes had been paved. Next, he just had to wait for Keith to come in himself.
However, just when Chen Chen thought that everything was under control, suddenly, Little X's somewhat anxious voice came. "Oh no, Sir Godfather, something happened at the Earth Federation Quantum Deity Laboratory!"
Chen Chen raised his eyes when he heard this. "What's the matter?"
"After I sent a prediction request to the quantum computer 'Adam', it only took half an hour to automatically generate a video, but after I watched this video, I felt a strange yet familiar feeling!"
Little X's voice was uncertain. "I've only felt this special feeling from things related to memes!"
Chen Chen was shocked when he heard this. He stood up straight with a whoosh. "You mean, 'Adam' created a meme himself?"
"Not at all!"
However, Little X explained, "I analyzed the code of the video itself and didn't find anything related to memes, which means that there's no problem with the video. The real problem isn't the video itself, but the content in the video!"
Little X hesitated. "I'm more familiar with the coding of memes. From this video, I feel a similar feeling to This Man. In other words, this video is likely to be highly contagious. However, I can't determine how many ways this video can be transmitted or what the route of transmission will be..."
Chen Chen immediately understood that memes could be transmitted in a myriad of ways and were not necessarily limited to one method. Although it was a video, it was certain that the transmission method was visual transmission, but it did not mean that the content described in words would not be transmitted.
However, at this point, Chen Chen suddenly looked in a certain direction in Los Angeles. It was the direction of the Herrank Warehouse District that Little X had previously reported to him.
If what the quantum computer predicted was a meme, then did it not mean that there was a memetic effect happening in the Herrank Warehouse District? Those people who died after their necks were twisted were killed by memes!
However, everything related to memes was locked up in the Spire laboratory. How could it appear in the outside world, especially in the world's most powerful Northern America?
"What's the content of the video, can you describe it?"
Chen Chen asked a little eagerly.
"I don't dare to describe the specific content for now, but one thing can be explained. The main body in the video is a statue, a... An angel statue with its eyes covered..."
"An angel statue with its eyes covered?"
Chen Chen murmured with some doubts. Then he seemed to think of something, and then he suddenly came back to his senses, revealing a shocked expression. "It's that angel pattern!"
At this moment, Chen Chen suddenly remembered that when he went to Mainland Jiao Tong University to investigate, he was set up. An iron bed that seemed to come from the dimension of Silent Hill almost killed him.
Although in the end, the meme of the iron bed was inadvertently cracked by a university student, after Chen Chen transported the iron bed back to Namibia, there was still a mistake.
During the detection experiment against the meme, Chen Chen not only failed to detect the function of the iron bed, but also caused a mural to appear next to the iron bed.
It was a mural painted with blood — on it was a woman curled up with her eyes covered and there was a pair of wings on the woman's back...
At that time, Chen Chen did not see the whole picture, only a part, but fortunately, he did not see the whole picture. Once something like a meme pattern was seen in its entirety, it was likely that it meant that he had been tricked. At that time, even if he died, he would not know how he died.
At this time, following Little X's reminder, Chen Chen immediately thought of something and he quickly asked. "Didn't four Black Knights look directly at the meme pattern before? How were they destroyed in the end?"
"I sent them to the steel mill."
Little X seemed to understand something and she quickly said, "I don't think so. After the chips of these four Black Knights were dug out, their bodies were dissolved in the molten steel."
"Dissolved?"
Chen Chen could not help showing a puzzled look when he heard this. If it had been destroyed, why would it appear in Los Angeles? Was it just a coincidence?
But in the next second, Chen Chen dispelled this idea and asked again, "Are you sure? Then where did the pot of molten steel that dissolved the bodies of the four Black Knights go? "
"I'll go check it out now."
Little X replied, paused slightly for a few seconds, and then said again, "Sir Godfather, your guess is correct because I found that after the pot of molten steel dissolved the four people, they were cast into building materials and sold to Northern America, and the buyer was a construction company in Los Angeles..."
Hearing this, Chen Chen and Little X were completely enlightened.
"As I thought."
Chen Chen stared solemnly at the night ahead. In the suburbs of Los Angeles, there was an area full of warehouses. It was none other than the famous Herrank Warehouse District. "This batch of building materials is mixed with memetic effects. They were transported to Los Angeles with the building materials, and then when they were temporarily stored in the Herrank Warehouse District, because a certain condition was met, they erupted..."
"That's too tricky."
Little X's tone was a little distressed. "I didn't expect that it could still spread after destroying the bodies that might be infected with the memetic effect. This memetic effect is too terrifying, but in this case, I'm afraid the Quantum Computer Laboratory is done for..."
"You mean, in the Quantum Computer Laboratory, this video has been leaked?"
Chen Chen took a deep breath, only feeling his scalp tingle. He really did not dare to imagine what would happen if this meme appeared in reality...
"Yes, after all, 'Adam's' body is over there. I can't stop them from getting the answer. At most, I can choose to encrypt the information, but..."
Little X's voice was a little helpless. "Originally, 'Adam' used encryption methods when predicting the Herrank Warehouse incident. It stands to reason that the Earth Federation can't get a valid answer, but unfortunately, memes can't be reasoned with at all. After generating the video, not only did I obtain this video, but the Earth Federation also obtained a copy. I originally thought that these encryption methods couldn't be cracked by the Earth Federation, but they successfully cracked it. All encryption methods become ineffective in the face of this meme!"
"In other words, at this time, everyone in the Earth Federation's Quantum Computer Laboratory has seen that video?"
Chen Chen's expression became even more ugly. At this moment, the face of Zhao Shanhe flashed in his mind, and then Zhao Shanhe's face changed, turning into the image of Professor Wang Xi again. Chen Chen could not help but laugh in anger. "Good move, really good move..."
"You mean..."
Little X's voice was a little startled.
"All this is impossible if there's no one behind it."
Chen Chen's expression became even colder. "In order to get the USB flash drive, or to kill me, the other party would rather destroy the entire human civilization indiscriminately. Isn't this a good move? And what's more frightening is that the other party is likely not on Earth, not even in the space-time and timeline where I am, but somewhere else that I can't reach or explore... "
"So what should we do now?"
Little X could not help asking.
"Recall most of the Black Knights who went after Keith."
Chen Chen said without thinking, "Let nature take its course with Keith. These Black Knights will all go to the Herrank area and find out everything for me. Find out what the hell is killing people!"
With that said, Chen Chen hesitated slightly and finally said, "Also, contact the president of Northern America and the mayor of Los Angeles and have them immediately seal off the Herrank area to prevent the spread of the meme!"
"But, they won't listen to us..."
Little X was a little hesitant.
"Then tell them what memes are!"
Chen Chen said coldly, "Although the time isn't right yet, we can't care about this anymore. It's just a showdown, with the current us, we don't have to be afraid of Northern America."
"X, I'll leave it to you here. You've never disappointed me, in the past, in the present, and I hope it will be the same in the future!"
"Yes!"
Little X's spirit was suddenly lifted when she heard this. She said in a clear voice, "Understood, Sir Godfather, leave it to me!"
"Very good!"
Chen Chen smiled with relief and suddenly turned his head to look into the distance to the north. At this moment, the night wind suddenly blew, causing Chen Chen to squint slightly. There seemed to be an undercurrent surging in his eyes. "In that case, leave the Federation's quantum computer laboratory to me."
With that, Chen Chen strode directly to the edge of the building, but when he reached the edge, he did not stop and still walked toward the void. However, what was strange was that although under his feet was a hundred meters high in the void, every step he took seemed to be stepping on solid ground!
At the same time, Chen Chen's body leaned forward slightly and the Field energy in his mind burst like a spark plug. In the next second, Chen Chen's body suddenly generated an extreme thrust, causing Chen Chen to rush out at an unbelievable speed!
"Bang!"
A white mist formed behind Chen Chen, but at this time, Chen Chen had already appeared hundreds of meters away. Then, in the blink of an eye, Chen Chen completely disappeared without a trace!
It was not until Chen Chen's figure completely disappeared that the windows of the Osmond building under his feet suddenly burst one after another. In the blink of an eye, the glass of half of the building exploded at this moment, the shards scattered on the ground!
At this moment, Chen Chen had flown out at an acceleration that exceeded the limits of human beings. This was no longer a problem of Field energy. Even Andrew in Chronicle would not dare to do this.
This was because although Andrew's Field energy might be stronger than Chen Chen's, his body had always been the body of an ordinary person.
Many people thought that the body would also become stronger after being irradiated by crystalline. The source of this rumor was actually a scene in the movie: When Andrew was playing a trick on his cousin, he stabbed a fork into his cousin's hand, but his cousin's hand was fine, but the fork was bent. Therefore, many people who did not know the truth thought that their bodies had become stronger after being irradiated by the crystal.
However, this was actually a misunderstanding because at that time, Andrew was actually testing his Field energy. He also explained later that the reason why the fork bent while his cousin's hand was fine was because he used Field energy to block his cousin's hand. The reason why he did this was to show that he had a higher degree of control of Field energy, and it had nothing to do with his physical strength.
Chen Chen was different. At this time, Chen Chen was like a combination of Alice and Andrew. He had both Alice's physical fitness strengthened by the T-virus and Andrew's Field energy, so he could accelerate to supersonic speed in just half a second without worrying about his body not being able to bear it.
In the field of aviation, there was a special term called "overload", the unit represented by "G".
This could also be called the gravitational acceleration experienced by an object on the surface of the earth. To be specific, it could be expressed as: when standing on the ground and standing still relative to the ground, the gravitational acceleration experienced by a person was 1G. At this time, what one felt was the weight of each person.
However, during flight, the aircraft would often accelerate. The pilot would also make acceleration movements along with the aircraft at the same time, so an acceleration would be generated. The greater the acceleration, the greater the acceleration overload. For example, if a pilot received an overload of 2G during flight, then it was equivalent to the pilot's weight doubling out of thin air.
Generally speaking, ordinary people could probably withstand an overload of 2-3G, but those fighter pilots who had been selected with excellent physical fitness and had also undergone professional training could withstand an overload that far exceeded that of ordinary people, reaching 5-7G. Some of the better ones could even withstand 9G overload.
As for Chen Chen, accelerating from a standstill to a state of supersonic speed in an instant, the overload he endured was several times that of a pilot and more than a hundred times that of an ordinary person. This was absolutely impossible for Andrew in the movie. Even if he did, he would die from a cerebral hemorrhage after a few seconds.
