Retired for A Hundred Years: Re-Employment for the Apocalypse Bigshot! Chapter 500 - 495: In This World, Nothing Is Impossible

Fu Ninghao silently watched them.

The four couldn’t tell what he was thinking, feeling uneasy in their hearts.

Although they weren’t part of the base managent, they were now on the warship, surrounded by base soldiers. If they were to make a move, they definitely wouldn’t stand a chance.

"You’ve worked hard these past few days. Go and contact your leader."

Fu Ninghao’s words made the four feel a great relief.

Once they left, Fu Ninghao asked his eldest son beside him, "Do you think they told the truth?"

Fu Lishen replied, "It should be the truth. Ji Ning never plays by the rules. It’s possible he left with the Ji Family Army as well."

"The key is, how did they know it was the Ji Family Army? Those people wouldn’t dare casually ntion the Ji Family Army."

Fu Lishen’s expression tightened, "You an... Ji Ning was unhard, not in a vegetative state? But those kids’ statents..."

"She is a high-level spiritual ability user, what’s difficult about altering a mory?"

Fu Ninghao’s voice was low and carried a coldness, seeming very angry.

Fu Lishen thought of his second brother Fu Linzhou’s deploynt in Beijing, feeling a bit worried, "Dad, about the second brother’s side..."

"Pause the plan for now, and wait until we confirm her actual situation before making any decisions."

Beijing Smart Brain Control Center.

Lin Yuanyang and a group of engineers were still confronting the main program of the Smart Brain.

Currently, the researchers had been released by the main program, but most of the control rights were still in the hands of the West Continent’s Ji Family Army.

The keys in the hands of Li Wenxin and others had been re-iterated, unable to issue the highest command to the main program.

Hundreds of engineers worked overnight to build a new firewall to prevent the Ji Family Army from issuing rogue commands.

This has led to situations often seen online where the Huazhou Alliance releases a ssage only for it to be deleted two seconds later.

A program starts sowhere only to be imdiately shut down urgently.

Ye Xingyan, bored on the ship, browsing news, looked displeased, "Those people from the Huazhou Alliance, are they just lazy? They can’t even contend for a single Smart Brain control against those Left Wing people. And now they want to start a movent to abandon the Smart Brain—it’s just deceiving themselves."

Sitting on the opposite bed, Ji Ning put down the tablet and slowly raised her head, "Do you have cooperation with the Qi Family?"

Under the treatnt from Ye Xingyan and the energy restoration of her earring, she could already sit up against the headboard.

Ye Xingyan nodded slightly, "We did before, but ever since the explosion on that little island, we’ve terminated our cooperation. The last commander they manufactured awakened three superpowers with the drugs I developed."

Speaking of this, Ye Xingyan couldn’t hide his pride, and Ji Ning gave him a glare.

She asked again, "How much do you know about the Qi family?"

Ye Xingyan thought for a mont, a hint of annoyance flashing in his eyes, "The Qi Family and our Ye Family are sowhat related, but not closely now. Those in the Qi Family pretend to be aloof, I don’t like them."

"I don’t like them either," Ji Ning said indifferently.

Ye Xingyan was surprised, a hint of interest in his eyes, "What did they do to provoke you?"

"Isn’t trying to find soone to replace annoying enough?"

Ye Xingyan imdiately sat up straight, a bit guilty, "It’s also aid at consolidating the Ji Family Army’s power."

"Qi Shixiao also has so of the Smart Brain’s subprogram, what do you think he wants to do? Use the Smart Brain program to kill ?"

Ye Xingyan’s expression instantly turned serious, "Wasn’t it the main program of the Smart Brain that betrayed?"

"Lin Yuanyang developed a smart system, feeding it various information every day to teach it autonomous thinking. But Lin Yuanyang absolutely wouldn’t feed the system negative human traits. He said the smart system is like a child with a super brain, its developnt largely depends on the developer’s and user’s nurturing. To ensure the smart system doesn’t develop a hatred for humans, aside from design constraints, ideological education is more crucial."

Ji Ning pointed to her head, once again saying, "Why would the main program of the Smart Brain think that activating the highest authority by a commander poses a risk of it being erased, leading to the relentless effort to kill the commander before the authority is activated? Who is instilling this thought into it?"

Ye Xingyan’s heart tightened, his expression not as relaxed as before, "Are you saying soone deliberately instilled the Smart Brain program with this dangerous thought?"

Ji Ning pursed her lips and gave him a look.

"Then who could it be? Most of the Huazhou Alliance’s power is below our three families, and the researchers entering the Smart Brain Control Center have been carefully selected. The love and respect for the Commander is absolute enough..."

"What if the subprogram infiltrated the main program and successfully replaced the new main program?"

Ye Xingyan’s face again turned ugly, and he indignantly said, "I told you those Left Wing people are up to no good, they don’t want you coming back to take their power away. These traitors!"

"Besides the Left Wing forces, the Qi family and those behind them might also want to kill ."

Ye Xingyan, although not fond of the Qi Family, still said a word for them, "But what’s the point? The Qi Family has no real power in Hua Continent; even if they kill you, they can’t control Hua Continent?"

Ji Ning looked at him blandly, "There’s nothing impossible in this world. As long as the benefits are enough, soone might even kill their own daughter."

***

The small fishing boat drifted on the sea for more than half a month, finally landing at a private port in Jiazhou.

The owner of this port had cooperation with Ye Xingyan; the two sides had a relatively close relationship.

This ti, Ji Ning disguised herself as Ye Xingyan’s assistant, changing her appearance to the assistant’s face, even adjusting her fingerprints to match the assistant’s.

The fifth mber of the Twelve Guards nearly beca her apprentice on the spot after seeing her exquisite disguise technique.

Ji Ning did not agree.

Since then, she has gained an additional bodyguard.

The group stayed at the host’s house for a few days, participating in several academic exchange etings.

As long as he’s not in Hua Continent, Ye Xingyan has a significant reputation internationally.

Scholars from other continents were very welcoming when he ca to give lectures and exchange ideas.

To avoid drawing attention, they stayed in Jiazhou for a few days before entering the West Continent from the southwest border.

There was a barren desert here, where the largest slum in the West Continent was located.

The disorder made it the easiest place for them to slip into the West Continent without being detected by the Smart Brain.

After previously helping Ji Ning disguise her identity, leading to several of Black Bear’s subordinates being captured, the Left Wing forces had placed Ye Xingyan as a major suspect, banning him from entering the West Continent.

His prior application to enter was all denied.

They had no choice but to enter through the most dangerous parts of the West Continent.

However, the place was poor and backward, with few using advanced electronic devices, making it the weakest spot for Smart Brain surveillance.

The whole group was disguised by Ji Ning, with makeup techniques learned from Ye Tong, coupled with her spiritual control, the journey was relatively smooth.

Until they encountered the Eternal Life Sect preaching.

A group of people in white robes, completely out of place in the filth and chaos, stood at the village entrance, distributing food to so people.

Ji Ning scanned with her spiritual power and found that most of the food was near expiry or expired.

But even so, there was still a long line in front of them.

All were adults bringing children.

Ten near-expiry bread exchanged for one child who looked about three or four years old.

No gender restriction.

Seeing Ji Ning stop to watch, Ye Xingyan said with a calm face, "This is normal, when there’s not enough food to eat, children and won usually beco resources for food exchange."

"Why?" Ji Ning’s voice was very cold.

Ye Xingyan glanced at her, "Commander, how many won are as strong as you? Historically, won and children have been physically weaker than n. In places without laws and morals, the weak are the ones that get bullied casually. Even if they complain, they can only bla their unfortunate births."
