Finally, a senior official from Northern America suddenly said, "In other words, the reason why there are so many angel statues in the Quantum Deity Laboratory is because of this?"
"Yes."
The man nodded. "Presumably, you should have also experimented with death row inmates and the like. What the quantum computer Adam predicted was nothing else but a video about the 'Weeping Angel'. You don't want to believe that Adam would betray you, but in fact, Adam did not betray you because there is no problem with that video. The real problem is not the video, but the meme..."
Hearing everything said by the person on the stage, everyone was silent.
Although this incident happened in Northern America, those who could sit here had access to information from many aspects. They had long known everything that happened that day like the back of their hands, but they had always known how it was and did not know why. Now, the other party used something called "meme" to explain all this.
Yu Qi did not know what others were thinking, but he had already somewhat believed it because Nancy, the representative of Northern America in the United Front, had said similar words and blamed him.
Wait a minute...
Suddenly, Yu Qi immediately realized that the man on the stage turned out to be a member of Blacklight Biotechnology. No wonder he did not know the other party, but why was it not the founder of Blacklight Biotechnology who came, but a terminally ill patient?
At this time, the man on the stage was still explaining. "Later, in our experiments, we found that the statue has a very strange property. It has the ability to affect any monitoring equipment. This ability is ineffective in the petrified state, but once it loses observation, the Weeping Angel will come back to life, and the equipment responsible for monitoring it will immediately fail.
"In other words, no one can see what the Weeping Angel looks like when no one is observing it. Even the monitoring equipment itself can't observe it.
"When we look at it, it's completely a statue, and even its hardness is comparable to a statue. It can be easily smashed into pieces, but no matter where we throw these statue fragments, how many small pieces they are scattered into, as long as we look away for a moment, we'll find that the statue recovers again...
"This is the indestructibility of the statue. As for why this is so, we tend to believe that the statue itself doesn't exist. We can't kill a meme because a meme is a concept and a concept is immortal.
"So, do they have any flaws?"
Below the stage, in the European group, a senior official sitting next to the president suddenly asked.
"The flaw is simple. It's the line of sight."
The man coughed twice in a low voice and continued to say, "I believe everyone has also noticed why the Weeping Angel can't directly wring our necks but has to play 'one, two, three' with us? In fact, it's not that this meme doesn't have such a hobby, because memes don't have a mind of their own. It's like the wind and rain, a natural phenomenon, a natural law. This is the law of this meme. As long as there's a line of sight, it will never be able to harm humans. "
Hearing this, many people revealed looks of disappointment. This was a complete nonsense.
But in the next second, the man suddenly changed his tone. "In addition, we found that the reason why Weeping Angels always cover their eyes is not because they like to cry as their literal name suggests, but because their vision also has the effect of observation. Once two or more Weeping Angels look at each other, these Weeping Angels will never be able to move..."
Yu Qi's eyes suddenly lit up when he heard this. Although he had never seen a real Weeping Angel, at this time he could also think that if this was used well, it was indeed a trump card against the Weeping Angels!
"Also, we also discovered in our experiments that if we can kill the shapeshifter in advance in the process of transforming from a human into a statue, we can also stop the transformation of humans into Weeping Angels."
The man continued to speak. He sighed and said with relief, "The above is all our research on the Weeping Angels."
After listening to all this, everyone subconsciously looked at Northern America as if they wanted to verify these words from the mouths of the people on Northern America's side.
"No mistakes have been found for the time being."
Seeing this, Nancy of Northern America nodded reluctantly, but he suddenly frowned and asked in a questioning tone, "What you said does make some sense, but if what you said is true, then for the losses of the Quantum Deity Laboratory and the losses of the city of Los Angeles, how will your Blackwatch Corporation compensate for them? After all, all of this was caused by Blackwatch! "
Hearing this, several senior officials from the European region also echoed.
"Also..."
Nancy continued to speak aggressively, "Late at night on June 2, outside the Herrank Warehouse District of Los Angeles, one of our land forces suddenly lost contact with the headquarters. When it was discovered, it was already wiped out. Don't say that this was also done by the Weeping Angels..."
"We, Blackwatch, don't know about this."
The man replied with a flat expression. Without waiting for Nancy to continue to ask, he changed the subject again. "So back to our previous topic, I think after this example, you should understand why the mysterious man who contributed to the United Nations' formation of the Earth Federation but whose name doesn't even exist has disappeared, right?"
When they heard this, everyone's expression flashed, and Nancy even swallowed the words he was about to say...
"You mean, the mysterious man who united the world and created the Earth Federation, he also disappeared because of memes?"
Suddenly, everyone began to question him.
"That's right."
The man showed a solemn expression. "But what I want to say is that he didn't rely on ordinary memes, but an anomaly among memes — antimemes."
"Antimemes?"
Everyone murmured in a low voice, wishing they could crush all these words and analyze them word by word...
"If a meme is a unit of information, and the meaning of its existence is to replicate, mutate, and spread, then antimemes are the opposite."
A haze flashed in the man's eyes and he whispered, "No antimeme is known because its existence doesn't emit any information. It's like a black hole in information. All perception will be sucked into the black hole when it comes into contact with the other party..."
"In other words, that person may have been around us, and we might even be very familiar with him?"
The president of the North Sea Continent did not know whether to laugh or cry. "But because of the antimeme, we've forgotten him?"
"Yes."
The man nodded. "However, the effect of antimemes on memory is not only to make people unable to remember it, but it can even make people lose interest in it and eliminate all traces of themselves in reality. This is the most terrible thing... Ignorance is scary, but if you're ignorant and don't try to gain knowledge, that's true despair.
"It's by using antimemes that that person can hide himself and eliminate everything related to himself in the world!
"If what you said is true, doesn't that mean that our human civilization could use memetic technology as early as more than 30 years ago?"
Secretary Lin frowned and suddenly asked, "But isn't this contrary to what you said before? You said that memes didn't exist on Earth before. Aren't these two statements contradictory? "
"In fact, it's not contradictory, sir."
After the flaw was pointed out, the man did not show the slightest embarrassment but showed a strange smile. "Because I didn't say that the antimeme came from Earth, don't mislead me..."
Hearing this, Secretary Lin was momentarily stunned. Everyone else also had a thoughtful look on their faces.
Nancy, the representative of the United Front, was just about to say something, but at this moment, he suddenly saw the president of Northern America glancing at him. He immediately took a deep breath, slammed the table, and stood up!
"Enough!"
"I admit that if you're a speaker, you're indeed qualified, but everything you say should at least stand on evidence. Now, I only see a series of assumptions, which is not convincing at all!"
"Evidence?"
The man turned his head with some confusion. He raised his handkerchief and coughed softly. "I'm the evidence."
"You?"
Nancy showed a hint of anger at being teased. He was just about to say something when he suddenly felt his eyes blur. The next second, the man who was originally ten meters away suddenly flashed and suddenly appeared in front of him!
"Whoa!"
Nancy was so frightened that he fell back. In less than half a second, the originally terminally ill man had crossed a distance of more than ten meters. This strange speed startled everyone. Almost reflexively, the three bodyguards of Northern America took out their guns at the same time and aimed the muzzles at the man who suddenly appeared!
However, the man just showed a strange smile. He waved one hand and the guns in the hands of these bodyguards seemed to come alive. They flew out of the hands of several people and flew directly in front of the man!
Oh no!
Such a thought flashed in everyone's mind at the same time.
At this time, not only the bodyguards of the senior officials of Northern America, but the bodyguards and soldiers in the entire venue all pulled out their guns, and more than a dozen guns were aimed at the man in the center!
For a moment, the atmosphere fell to a freezing point!
"Chen Chen, what are you trying to do!"
Several senior officials stood up as well and looked at the man in front of them with inexplicable anger.
"Don't be nervous, I'm just giving a demonstration."
The man looked around. At this moment, he suddenly changed his previous sickly temperament. His entire person seemed to have become a different person. His eyes were sharp and his whole body exuded an uneasy aura.
"Click click click, click, jingle, dang..."
Following the man's words, the three pistols automatically disintegrated in mid-air. In the blink of an eye, the three pistols were completely disintegrated into the most basic components and scattered together like a jigsaw puzzle …
Seeing this scene, everyone was dumbfounded. They watched helplessly as the three guns automatically disintegrated as if they had a life of their own. They wanted to lie to themselves that it was just magic, but what kind of magic could achieve such a step?
"If this is not enough to explain..."
Then, the man spoke again. He spread his hands and faced the crowd, and then he walked directly toward the podium.
Just when everyone was still shocked by the fact that he had disintegrated the guns in the void before, he walked straight toward the wall at the end of the podium and even stepped on the wall after reaching the end.
Then, a scene that was even more unbelievable to everyone appeared — like a hydrogen balloon, the man directly broke away from gravity, and his body stepped vertically on the wall at a 90-degree angle. This was not the end. He was still walking forward...
When he reached the top of the wall, he raised his foot and stepped on the ceiling again.
"Patter, patter, patter..."
With the sound of footsteps, the man had completely stood on the ceiling. He spread his arms and faced the crowd. Even his hair and the corners of his clothes did not change as if gravity did not exist...
At this moment, everyone looked up at this man and the entire conference room was silent...
"Click!"
The president of the North Sea Continent looked at all this dumbfoundedly. He did not even notice that the fountain pen that was spinning subconsciously fell to the ground. The leaders and senior officials of various countries were even more shocked. Everyone had entered a state of petrification.
Still, this was not the end. In the next second, everyone suddenly felt their bodies lighten and many people subconsciously let out a cry of surprise. Then, amidst the exclamations of the crowd, except for the presidents of the four continents, the rest of the people began to float uncontrollably!
Yu Qi only felt as if there were countless pairs of invisible big hands around his body beginning to pull him. He struggled subconsciously, but no matter how he struggled, he could not resist the invisible force. Then he directly turned over and floated toward the roof, head down and feet up...
"Please forgive my rudeness, everyone, now do you still think all this is magic?"
The man on the stage showed a calm expression. At this time, his words already carried an unparalleled persuasiveness...
