Chapter 823 - Computing The Heavens And Earth

After a while, Fang Ning finally finished correcting a document and told Sir System.

“The thing that the two Upper Realm deities are eyeing for is, no doubt, the Red Queen. Their whole intention is very simple, which is to apply the Great Devil Saint Zhi Nan’s old method of using human consciousness as a basis and artificial intelligence as a function to endure the long and arduous years and to pass the Heavenly Axiom’s test.”

“Eh, I don’t get it. Didn’t the Great Devil Saint’s plan fail? That Divine Gate of yours opened once last time, and later on, for some unknown reason, Axiom Daddy never opened up again. Come to think of it, it was probably targeted by the Upper Realm at that time.” Sir System pondered.

“Hmm, the Great Devil Saint might have failed, but his plan might have been onto something. You must understand that many technological products used today failed many times in the past.” Fang Ning shook his head.

A light dawned on Sir System. “I get it now. It looks like they want to use it further once it’s complete. In that case, we can’t let them succeed.”

“They won’t. Once Black Robe moves into the Morality City, those two deities won’t be able to spy on the process. Without prior case studies, they’ll require a very, very long time to understand everything from scratch.” Fang Ning asserted.

“Uhh, won’t we end up as shields of the devils? That’ll be a great loss for us.” Sir System was concerned.

Fang Ning was at a loss for words. He understood what this third-rate crap was getting at.

“Don’t worry, Black Robe will please you, or else, he’s worried you’ll sell him. He won’t be at ease if you accept less of his money.”

“Hehe, Mr. Rich Boss understands me after all. We’ll go with this plan then. Business is business, we aren’t going to take sides.” Sir System declared.

“You sound as magnanimous as a hero…” Fang Ning mused in admiration.

“I guess so.” Sir System was pleased with itself. It was not every day that its Host praised him.

One day later, their prediction became a reality.

The next day, Black Robe, accompanied by Zheng Dao, boarded the Golden Train and carried with him a box.

Although he was curious about the box’s contents, Zheng Dao kept his question to himself.

When they arrived at the Morality City, Black Robe was slightly appalled.

The people here had different appearances as compared to the people of the outer world.

People of the outer world carried hunted expressions on their faces and did not linger for too long on the streets. The former days of busy streets had long been confined to the past.

No one would take a walk in the street unless there was a compelling reason to do so. Everybody knew that it was much more dangerous outside.

As for this place, people lived as if the Era of Technology was still present. They strolled on the streets in a carefree and relaxed manner.

What a bunch of ignorant and lucky fools. One was considered to have good karma to be able to live here.

Black Robe thought, these regular folk enjoyed the protection of Vigilante A without spending a single dime, whereas the building he rented in this place was expensive and the rental was not calculated according to the market rate.

Never mind that it was expensive. His only worry that it could not be bought even with money…

Furthermore, it was only a brash fool like Vigilante A who could resist the Upper Realm deities publicly, all for the purpose of justice.

As for him, he only resisted the deities for personal interests.

Of course, some said that Vigilante A cultivated the Path of Heavenly Punishment, but why could anyone else not cultivate it? The reason was simple. No one else had the courage to defy outside forces for the sake of cultivation.

“Brother Black, please come in. We have arranged a building for you which is opposite our Scientific Academy for Vitality. The security here is top-notch and there will be no disturbances.” When they alighted from the train, Zheng Dao drove this important client personally to his destination.

The rental given by Black Robe was too high, to the point that Zheng Dao had to recognize that this business deal could feed the employees of an entire production line.

Also, it was not a one-time deal that was available annually.

Apart from other things, this devil got his money real quick. At least their methods were swift and vicious… Unlike the Venerable One, who often took into account the factors of cost and ethics and avoided exploiting the people.

According to the Dragon Carp, the three million Drider Laborers were not paid by Black Robe. He would only service the mechs regularly.

Although the other party borrowed them for free, the maintenance costs still had to be paid.

After all, the Drider Laborers used up energy and exhausted their souls daily. They were not perpetual motion machines and had to be supplied with Vitality and electrical power regularly to supplement their souls and to let them continue functioning mechanically.

The traffic was smooth-sailing and the vehicles cruised on all three levels of the flyover.

The topography of the Morality City was flattened by Fang Ning’s Hand of God, making it easy for the construction of roads.

When the roads were first built, a three-leveled flyover was constructed simultaneously. The traffic volume that could be supported by this city was planned right at the beginning to ensure no traffic jams would occur.

Fang Ning, who lived in the congested Qi City, resonated deeply with this.

The third level of the flyover was a special lane and regular vehicles were not allowed to travel on.

Very few vehicles passed through it except for ambulances, fire trucks and patrolling police cars, which made it very smooth and unobstructed.

The bottom two levels were a lot busier, but they were also smooth enough. Traffic lights were rarely seen. During the flyover’s conception, excessive junctions were avoided. Roundabouts were mainly used, but there were very few crossroads.

Fang Ning, who had played a number of city simulation games, was familiar with the congestion at crossroads. No matter how competent the traffic conductor was, the abundance of crossroads was a definite cause of traffic jams.

Soon, Zheng Dao parked his car near the Scientific Academy for Vitality.

The opposite building was reserved by the Scientific Academy. It had barely been three months since the completion of its construction and it was still being ventilated. For the time being, it had not been moved to the new department, hence it became empty very soon.

Black Robe got out of the car and looked around. Although the sun was nowhere to be seen, the area was bathed in the warmth of the sunlight. The numerous trees under the clear, blue sky provided shade and fresh air enveloped him.

The newly-constructed building up ahead was coated with a new layer of paint. It stood several hundred meters tall and had about a hundred stories. The window panes scintillated with the reflected sunlight.

A group of employees had already lined up at the building’s entrance to receive him.

At least he received VIP treatment.

Moreover, he was in Vigilante A’s turf. Rather generous of this fellow.

Was he not worried that he would cause trouble?

If he did cause trouble, it would be something that would have been foreseen by Vigilante A.

Elder Ancestor Bai was released a few months ago and there was still an empty spot under the Demon Suppression Monument…

Apparently, Vigilante A was true to his words. He only cared about law and order. It did not matter if one was a demon, a devil, a ghost or a beast…

As long as one obeyed the rules and did not harm anybody, Vigilante A would not act impulsively and slay someone. Also, he would not kill and rob someone of his prized possessions.

From this perspective, this was what set him apart from other righteous cultivators.

Black Robe was pondering on his own when a yellow dog sprung out of nowhere and rushed towards him.

He was about to scold it when he realized something and held his tongue.

“You’re Black Robe? The Great Devil Saint Zhi Nan’s little brother?” The Yellow Dog eyed him suspiciously.

“It’s me, and what about it? You must be the Yellow Dog Xue Ba, I bet?” Black Robe answered sheepishly.

Naturally, he knew about this dog, who was one of Vigilante A’s loyal canine companions. It seldom showed itself of late. He heard that it was currently busy studying modern science…

Unfortunately, when it came to the understanding and mastery of human scientific knowledge, neither man nor dog could compete with his own master.

If only the Dog knew about his master’s research progress, it would have been stunned toothless.

Black Robe was no fool and he did not like to pretend.

“Hmm, it looks like you’ve heard of me too. Good, I heard you intend to set up a Cloud Computational Center here. Our Scientific Academy currently lacks computing technology and regular supercomputers aren’t enough. I wonder how yours compares to ours?” The Yellow Dog enquired.

“Oh? Unless you want to compute the Heavens and Earth, or else, I believe the Red Queen should be able to handle it.” Black Robe replied confidently.

“Eh, you’re right. I do intend to compute the Heavens and Earth…” The Yellow Dog muttered.

“…” Black Robe was speechless.
