Chapter 299 [Defector], [Truth Society] plan!


    "Jane Vivian?"


    Shane was stunned for a moment.


    He was particularly impressed by the surname "Vivian". Not only did Miss Ghost, the crew member, have this name, but Laila was also a member of this big family.


    Could it be that there is a certain blood relationship between this wise and indifferent old woman and Laila?


    At this time, Jane''s attitude had changed drastically compared to just now, and her expression became kind and gentle, with a touch of happiness and nostalgia.


    Jane breathed a sigh of relief and said softly: "I thought I couldn''t wait for your arrival."


    "You...waiting for me?"


    The doubts in Xia En''s heart became more intense, and he couldn''t help but ask cautiously.


    "Did Laila ask you to do this?"


    Jane shook her head: "Unfortunately, I don''t know who Laila is."


    "To be more precise, I no longer remember who asked me to do this, nor the specific reasons behind it."


    "…Um?"


    The more Xia En listened, the more strange he became.


    Since she has forgotten this information, why Jane can still remember to wait for him seems to be contradictory.


    But soon, Xia En suddenly remembered a similar case -


    Joey’s father, [Undertaker] Edward!


    In the state of not awakening his hidden personality, he obviously reacted to the name "Diana", but the memory related to it no longer existed.


    Isn''t this old woman''s situation exactly similar?


    And in the Seven Seas, the only one who can delete memories at will is the [Truth Society]!


    Xia En simply asked directly: "Did the [Truth Society] do anything about it?"


    "It seems that you know a lot more than I expected."


    Jane''s tone was inexplicably meaningful: "But let''s just say that."


    "By the way, I haven''t asked you your name yet..."


    Xia En said bluntly: "My name is Xia En, and I am the captain of the [Black Swan]."


    "[Black Swan]? You have a ship that loves you very much... Oh no, it seems there is more than one?"


    Jian Shenjing''s face showed a moment of teasing: "To be so closely entangled with so many people''s ''threads''..."


    "Mr. Xia En, let me remind you that it is not a good thing to be too carefree."


    Xia En shook the corner of his mouth, not knowing how to answer.


    But he suddenly felt a little strange. Only a few people should know that he owns two ships, the Diamond Star and the Black Swan at the same time, right?


    How did the old woman figure it out?


    Could it be some kind of mind-reading secret?


    Jane smiled and said: "Don''t worry, I don''t know how to read minds."


    "It''s just that my eyes can see some things that ordinary people can''t see, such as... the ''lines'' and ''dots'' on people."


    "Plus, after living for so long and meeting a lot of people, I can more or less guess what people are thinking."


    Xia En secretly marveled.


    Jane''s words sounded light, but in fact, this was not something that could be done just by talking about it.


    "Mr. Shane, please come with me."


    "Most of what you want to know can be answered here."


    Jane turned around and pressed lightly somewhere on the bookshelf, and a secret door opened.


    Xia En followed her into the secret door.


    At this time, Alessio and Daisy had just walked into the library door.


    Looking at the two people disappearing into the secret door, Daisy could not help but widen her eyes and murmured.


    "Madam administrator, you actually took him to that room?"


    "W-what''s going on? What happened just now when we were away?"


    Even Alessio, who had always behaved aloof, also showed a surprised and confused expression.


    He was even more surprised than when he saw Xia En "scare" away the secret power in the library.


    No wonder the siblings were so surprised.


    You know, the eccentric character of this great librarian is famous throughout [Liu Li Island]!


    because…


    From the day the [Federal Grand Library] was built, the old woman has served as the "administrator" here.


    She always had a cool and indifferent attitude towards visitors to the Great Library.


    Of course, if you have something serious to do, the old woman will also complete her work seriously.


    But if it was just for the reason of "seeing the world" and "passing the time", this administrator would not give much of a good look.


    Regardless of whether he is an ordinary civilian, a pirate with a notorious reputation, or a general of the Federation Navy...


    As long as you come to the [Federal Library], you must act according to Jane Vivian''s rules!


    Once upon a time, it seemed that some children of high-ranking federal officials showed a bossy attitude when visiting the library.


    Then naturally I was taught a lesson by the administrator lady.


    These children thought they could use the power of their elders to retaliate against this "unscrupulous" administrator.


    However, in the end, people only saw a group of high-level federal figures personally bringing them to the big library to apologize.


    From this we can also see that this old woman has an extraordinary identity.


    And Jane''s secret room is even more like an "urban ghost story" in [Liu Li Island].


    It is said that very few people have ever entered that secret room.


    But each one of them is a big shot famous in the seven seas.


    Either he is the governor of [Liuli Island], or he is the dean of the Federal Research Institute, the commander of the federal navy...


    Legend has it that even the chief of the federation needs permission from the administrator to enter this secret room.


    But now, a captain who has just arrived at [Liu Li Island] is getting this kind of treatment?


    Why is this?


    Alessio can''t figure it out no matter how hard he tries!


    But Daisy was thoughtful and whispered to herself: "Perhaps this is also the reason why Carles chose him?"


    "Her taste has always been very good..."


    …


    …


    at the same time.


    Xia En has followed Jane into the deep secret room.


    Of course he didn''t know the legend and reputation of this secret room on [Liu Li Island].


    But after the secret door was closed, Xia En immediately noticed that a mysterious closed barrier had been formed in the room, which seemed to be to isolate the perception of the outside world and prevent the secret power from being leaked.


    —It is very similar to the room where Augustine was in the promotion copy at that time.


    Moreover, Xia En secretly sensed it for a moment and found that the secret power contained in this barrier was very unusual.


    I''m afraid that even with all his strength, he won''t be able to break this barrier.


    Just then.


    A bright light came on above Shane''s head. Under the light, what appeared in front of him was a room with silver-white walls and floors.


    It''s not particularly huge, but it can''t be called small either.


    In the room, there are a large number of large and small precision instruments.


    For some of the instruments, Xia En can also judge their usefulness based on his previous life experience, such as microscopes, scales, spectroscopic devices...


    But more instruments were beyond Xia En''s knowledge. They were unheard of and full of dreamy technology.


    Even people like Xia En, who have a certain scientific education foundation, have this feeling.


    Not to mention ordinary captains and civilians on the Seven Seas.


    When they saw this scene, they were afraid that they would think it was a miracle, or... they would regard it as the scene of some strange ritual?


    However, after being surprised, Xia En couldn''t help but feel a little wary.


    In fact, he is no stranger to this kind of technology-filled room.


    There were similar scenes inside the two [Ember Shelters].


    Moreover, perhaps because of the more exposure and knowledge he has, when Xia En sees this kind of high-tech thing, the first thing he thinks of is the [Truth Society]!


    Coupled with Jane''s previously suspected altered memory, it was difficult for Xia En not to become suspicious.


    "Don''t worry."


    Seemingly sensing Xia En''s vigilance, Jane sat down on the chair in the secret room and spoke.


    "Let me formally introduce myself. I am the administrator of the [Federal Library] and I was once a member of the [Truth Society]."


    "But now, I should have been regarded as a [defector]."


    After hearing Jane personally admitting her relationship with the [Truth Society], Xia En not only did not relax, but became more vigilant.


    He has personally experienced the weirdness and evil of the [Truth Society], and naturally he does not dare to despise it in the slightest.


    "[Defector?]"


    Shane made a gesture as if he might attack at any time and asked, "What does that mean?"


    Jane was not surprised by Xia En''s reaction, but continued to speak in a calm and calm tone.


    "Actually, a long time ago, the [Truth Society] was not as extreme as it is now, but a looser and more tolerant organization."


    "The purpose of people joining the [Truth Society] is just to communicate and communicate on the most cutting-edge technology."


    "After all, genius is always lonely."


    "Ordinary people usually cannot understand them. Only similar people can understand their inner thoughts a little bit."


    "The original [Truth Society] was an organization that supported each other to support each other."


    There was a touch of sadness in Jane''s voice, as if she was telling a distant story that had nothing to do with her.


    "It''s just that slowly, some extreme ideas sprouted in the [Truth Society], and the [Truth Society] gradually deteriorated."


    "The worst thing is that they even came into contact with the existence of [truth]!"


    "They regarded the judgment of [Truth] as a guideline and gradually moved towards the path of madness. It was at that time that I quit the [Truth Society]."


    "However, in the eyes of the current [Truth Society], I am undoubtedly a shameful [defector]."


    "If my true identity is known to them, someone will probably come to assassinate me soon."


    From these words, Xia En felt Jane''s sincerity.


    He didn''t think Jane would lie about this kind of thing, because it was too easy to verify it.


    However, Shane noticed an important point from Jane''s words.


    He asked: "Having come into contact with the existence of [truth]... what does that mean?"


    In Shane''s view, shouldn''t "truth" be a more abstract existence?


    -For example, "1+1 equals 2" and "water evaporates when heated" and other laws and phenomena.


    That''s why I ask this question.


    Jane explained patiently: "Generally speaking, [truth] is of course everywhere, but it can never be touched."


    "In the beginning, the [Truth] that people in the [Truth Society] believed in also existed like this."


    "Scientists believe that there must be some absolute law in the world that they have not discovered yet, and the world operates according to this law."


    “Some people call it God, Tao, thing-in-itself, absolute spirit… In short, it has risen from the category of technology to religion.”


    "As for the [truth] they came into contact with later..."


    Jane''s words paused, and it seemed that even she didn''t know how to describe this kind of existence.


    After a moment, Jane asked: "Mr. Xia En, I wonder if you have ever heard of... [The Will of the Secret Sea]?"


    Shane: "I''ve heard of it."


    He still remembered that in Augustine''s words, the "Secret Sea Will" was an extremely large, sophisticated, and absolutely rational machine.


    "Now that I''ve heard of it, it''s easy to explain."


    Jane continued: "In my opinion, the [Truth] that the [Truth Society] comes into contact with is equivalent to a clone and a fragment of the [Secret Sea Will]."


    "He possesses ''absolute rationality'' and superb computing performance similar to [Secret Sea Will]."


    "People in the [Truth Society] now believe that as long as they fill in enough data for Him, they can calculate the fate of everyone in our world and the development direction of everything."


    "Past, present, future... everything is under control!"


    "hiss…"


    After hearing these words, Xia En couldn''t help but take a breath.


    To be honest, even he felt that the goal of the [Truth Society] was a bit too exaggerated.


    Control everything in the world.


    I''m afraid only the true Creator can do this kind of thing, right?


    But in other words, this is indeed an extremely grand and magnificent ideal.


    Those talented scientists who have made great achievements in various fields are really easily attracted by such ideals.


    The more incredible the goal, the greater the sense of accomplishment when completed.


    Perhaps it is for this reason that the [Truth Society] can continuously attract scientists to join it, and its power continues to grow.


    However, Xia En guessed that after attracting the scientists into the [Truth Society], the [Truth Society] might have used some special secret technique to hypnotize and brainwash them.


    After all, not all scientists are lunatics who don''t take human life seriously.


    Only special means can change their character.


    After Xia En digested this shocking secret with difficulty, he asked again: "I heard that the [Truth Society] has been preparing two plans."


    "One is to steal the authority of the gods, but what is the other?"


    Jane glanced at Xia En in surprise: "So you even know about this?"


    "These two plans are the secrets of the [Truth Society]. Only the top fifty members of the [Truth Serial Number] can know."


    "Everyone else is just a tool to execute the plan."


    Jane didn''t say anything, but said directly.


    "As for the other plan you mentioned, it''s actually..."


    "Resurrect the strong man in history!"
