In the end, Irin was still unable to figure out what the "GM" engraved on the mysterious USB flash drive meant.
Even Molly herself could not figure it out. Irin was even more confused.
Who was it?
She returned to the room.
Irin pondered the question seriously.
The USB flash drive that had mysteriously appeared in Molly's hands was quite valuable.
It contained the most cutting-edge technology and confidential information from all over the world.
If the contents of the USB flash drive in Molly's hands were to be leaked out, it would definitely cause a global upheaval.
It would not be an exaggeration to say that it might even trigger another war.
Molly also knew the seriousness of the matter. Thus, she had been guarding this secret to the death and dared not speak of it to a third person.
Now, this had become a secret that both Irin and Molly were guarding together.
Molly admitted that the information in the USB flash drive was in some areas that she did not know. If she were to explore it alone, she would not be able to discover the true value of the USB flash drive.
Military individual combat armour, new energy, medical equipment, mechanical prosthetics, controllable nuclear fusion, evolvable artificial intelligence (AI) models, the Incan Empire's God's Descent, human body modification surgery, neural connection brain-computer interface … regardless of whether it was a prototype or still in the theoretical stage, or even just a hypothetical …
In Molly's words, the contents of the USB flash drive … were somewhat outrageous.
After she carefully studied the contents of the USB flash drive, she came to a conclusion.
The contents of the USB flash drive did not come from the hands of a professional scientific researcher.
It was more like someone who did not know anything. They copied and pasted, forcibly copied some information and copied it into the USB flash drive. It was simple and crude.
The origin of the USB flash drive was simply inconceivable to Molly. It was as though she had turned on a cheat code.
She reasonably speculated that the "GM" who had forcibly copied all the information into the USB flash drive did not even know how to erase the traces of "previous access" from the stolen computer when copying the confidential information.
The organization that had lost this information was very likely to be as anxious as ants on a hot pan as they frantically searched for the missing information.
This was another reason why Molly dared not tell others about this.
It was too dangerous.
But … it was very exciting!
Since this matter had nothing to do with Irin, Molly decided to bear this sin alone. She took the opportunity to kick Irin out of the laboratory barefooted.
Irin was deep in thought.
He subconsciously picked at the dead skin on his forehead.
Thoughts quickly flashed through his mind.
The messy clues were intertwined.
Finally, Irin opened her eyes.
He came to a conclusion that was at once strange and yet reasonable.
In the past "future," Molly definitely hadn't experienced this.
Irin was sure.
He was very familiar with Molly.
But everything had changed.
Everything he was familiar with in this world had been completely overturned.
"Someone knows what Molly is doing."
"Some people even know that I am a reincarnated person."
"Who is this person?"
When all the inferences led to this answer, Irin didn't believe it at first.
But as the ancients said, "When all other possibilities are eliminated, there is only one left, and it is the truth, no matter how impossible it seems."
Irin once again remembered the expression on Zhao Yulong's face when he casually made up nonsense to fool Zhao Yulong in the ruins of the school district in Litai City.
Now that Irin thought about it carefully, he realized that the reason why Zhao Yulong believed him wasn't because of how skilled he was at fooling people.
Instead, it was because Zhao Yulong knew that there was a certain "person" with terrifying strength that could easily deal with the Chimera. However, Zhao Yulong was wary of this "person" and didn't dare to mention his name easily. He even listed this "person" as a secret.
"It seems that I have to find a chance to infiltrate the Special Organization and investigate this so-called" mysterious friend "."
Irin took out the "list" on his phone and added the words "mysterious friend" to the list.
This time, it wasn't Irin who made friends out of nothing.
This "friend" did exist.
However, with Irin's current authority, he couldn't touch it.
After a lot of things happened, Irin put the plan of "visiting an old friend" on hold for the time being.
He had once prodded Zhao Yulong from the side, asking him who the "mysterious friend" who had appeared in Litai City was.
However, when Irin showed the slightest sign of probing, the old cunning fox Zhao Yulong immediately became vigilant and used a lame excuse to fool Irin, making Irin feel like his intelligence had been insulted.
After his fruitless probing, Irin even had an idea.
Since no one knew more about stealth than him, he wondered if he could sneak into the Special Organization's headquarters and search for the relevant secrets.
In case he was discovered, he was a member of the Special Organization anyway. He could just excuse himself and go to the bathroom.
Even if Zhao Yulong didn't believe him, he probably couldn't do anything to him.
After all, he didn't have any evidence.
Irin silently began to plan for this matter and choose a day to carry it out.
In the following days, Irin was very free.
Molly was even busier because she had obtained the information in the mysterious USB drive. She spent all day in front of the computer calculating data and drawing diagrams that Irin couldn't understand at all. It was very profound.
However, looking at the sketches that Molly drew, she seemed to be designing some equipment mysteriously.
Since there was nothing to do, Irin summoned Nightingale and let Molly disassemble, study, and compare it with the drawings.
As for Ling Yiyi, she was the same as before. There was nothing special.
The days were ordinary and stable.
Until half a month later.
Silently, the calendar entered the year 2122.
January.
Early.
Weather: Cloudy.
Temperature: 4 ° C.
Very cold.
Irin leisurely helped Ling Yiyi out to bask in the dark clouds.
In order to avoid disturbing pedestrians, Wang Tiandi followed the "Pet Management Regulations" and put the dog leash around his neck. He led himself and followed behind Irin and Ling Yiyi, eating the cold dog food. It was painful but happy.
On this day, Irin finally received a reply from little Fatso.
There was only one short sentence in little Fatso's message.
"Time and place."
"The capital, immediately. You know the address."
"Remember, don't tell Brother Su!"
Little Fatso didn't forget to remind him at the end.
Irin actually wanted to say it.
He really wanted to bring Brother Su into the crew.
After all, the start of the game with two tanks was as steady as an old dog.
However, although Brother Su didn't look like it on the surface, she was a 100% woman. It couldn't be faked.
[Proof of Brotherhood]'s attribute was very clear. Only three people of the same gender could enter the trial as a team.
It was either three men or three women.
Disharmony was absolutely not allowed.
This was little Fatso's one and only lifelong request. Irin naturally agreed without hesitation.
He was afraid that little Fatso would go back on his word. He even swore that if he went back on his word, he would be struck by lightning, torrential floods, and tsunamis.
Irin naturally swore this kind of oath casually. After all, it was impossible for lightning to strike from the sky out of nowhere.
Li Erpang believed him.
After all, this oath was really poisonous.
While waiting for little Fatso to come, Irin helped Ling Yiyi settle down. Since he had nothing to do, he carefully organized his skills and inventory.
He made ample preparations for the upcoming trial.
Now, although Irin was about to face the cruel trial, he wasn't panicking at all. He wasn't afraid at all.
The number of trump cards he had right now was simply too many.
"If I go all out, even I would be afraid."
Irin was very emotional.
How did he become so powerful unknowingly?
Cough cough.
Although it was a little arrogant to think this way, Irin really couldn't imagine what kind of trial under this level could stop him from passing and getting a high score.
Probably … none.
Irin, who was familiar with the difficulty of each stage of the trial, had this much confidence.
Moreover, this time they entered the trial as a team.
Even if there was a difference in level between the three of them, it might be possible to increase the trial's difficulty by one level. But no matter how much it increased, it would only increase to the Nightmare difficulty.
"On the Nightmare difficulty, there are still 'Nightmare difficulty' and 'Eternal Night difficulty'. Some people even speculated that on the 'Eternal Night difficulty', there is also 'Ragnarok' with a mortality rate as high as 99%. A mere temporary team contract shouldn't be that ridiculous."
On this point, Irin was very assured.
He wouldn't be that unlucky.
Unlucky …
Unlucky …
Unlucky …
Irin thought for a while and inexplicably raised his face. He opened the apostle panel and looked at the luck value marked on the panel.
It shouldn't be.
Irin shook his head and waited for little Fatso to get rid of this ridiculous thought.
Since he was free, Irin browsed through the apostle forum.
He wanted to see if there were any interesting things and news in the apostle circle.
This forum that connected all the apostles could be said to be one of the sources of information in the apostle circle. It was very useful.
Irin roughly browsed through the trending posts.
As expected, there were a lot of comments in the apostle forum.
There were posts, technical posts, courting posts, social posts, and posts that attracted attention.
For example —
[As a level two novice, I got a grade A evaluation in the trial. What kind of standard is that? I'm so noob!]
[In the previous trial, I got three rare grade items and a grade B skill from the lottery. Sigh, it's too bad!]
[Skill usage guide.]
[Three-side strengthening route and analysis of pros and cons.]
Oh? The signature was actually 'Lightning Whip'? Could it be Master Ma?
Interesting.
[I want to find a soul mate. In the cold winter, we can keep each other warm. We only pursue the collision of souls and don't talk about feelings.]
Yi Lin skimmed through the posts and found them to be uninteresting.
Aside from these posts that did not have much to say, 50% of the forum was occupied by the 'monster incident' in Li Tai City.
[Have you seen the video in Li Tai City? It is said that a mysterious giant beast appeared in Li Tai City. It is suspected that it came from the inner world.]
[It can't be, right? Which bro is so fierce that he provoked the monster in the trial and chased it into the real world?]
[That fiery red meteor-like flying object was restored in high definition by my professional pixelated mosaic restoration software. It is reasonable to assume that it is the flying skill of a certain big shot. He is walking the monster in front. Identification complete!]
[Others are walking dogs, but this big shot is walking the monster. We are all kneeling on the ground!]
[Already kneeling!]
[Toast to the big shot. JPG]
[Toast to the big shot. AVI]
[The person above is driving. I have reported you.]
[Report your ass! Who is going to mute people here? There are no forum moderators.]
[Good guy! I am exclaiming 'good guy'!]
[But he is probably gone, right?]
[Based on reliable information, this big shot was very peaceful when he left. He had a smile on his face. The fire was very strong, and his ashes were very hot. His family was very strong, and he even sang a cold song. (I can't make this up anymore!)]
"…"
Irin silently closed the apostle forum.
There were indeed many talented people in the circle.
Under such circumstances, they were still able to talk so cheerfully.
Their values had already collapsed, okay?
Could it be that no one cared why 'monsters' appeared in the real world?
Irin felt very helpless.
Even in the apostle forum that was not monitored by anyone, everyone seemed to be wearing a mask. They were full of hypocrisy and flattery.
After roughly understanding the information in the apostle forum, Irin habitually opened the 'Void Merchant' function to take a look.
This was a new function that was only unlocked after level three. Although it was a scam, Irin had a habit of opening it from time to time to take a look.
Although there was usually nothing good, and it was all a scam, what if there was?
Wouldn't he be picking up scraps?
It would not take much time to take a look. The refresh time of the Void Merchant's list was not fixed. He had to take a look from time to time to avoid missing out on any treasures.
Irin had the mentality that he would not die from taking a look, but even if he took a look, it would not be of any use. Thus, he summoned the Void Merchant.
A mysterious merchant who was green from head to toe, wearing a cloak, and whose face could not be seen clearly, appeared in Irin's vision.
The green Void Merchant silently inserted a green signboard on the list. It stung Irin's eyes.
[-90%]
Irin: "…?"
Good guy!
This green Void Merchant was actually coveting his wallet!
