Chapter 315 The Butterfly Effect (6)

“You bastard… How did you know about us? Could it be that it was a trick planted by the Korean government?”

Sasaki knows that there are agents of the Korean intelligence department planted everywhere to manage the employees of Arcadia Co., Ltd. That’s why he had to admit his identity for a moment at Jae-young’s attitude so calm.

However, to Sasaki’s question, Jaeyoung answered with a completely ignorant face.

“no? Did you just take a picture?”

“what….?”

A very stupid answer.

However, Jaeyoung shrugged and replied as if it was obvious.

“A kidnapper with poor Korean and a gun that is never easily found in Korea. Seeing that he was waiting to kidnap Jae-kyun, but he didn’t respond at all to his plea for money, he must have been aiming for information related to Arcadia’s virtual reality technology, right? If so, there is a high possibility that he is an agent of the intelligence department of another country.”

Jae-young calmly and calmly puts together various puzzles with only the given information. At his explanation, Sasaki lost his composure and realized that he had made a mistake and kept his mouth shut.

“The fact that you are from Japan?”

There was no circumstance to know that it was Japan. However, Jaeyoung smiled and pointed at a road sign that could be seen through the windshield.

“We are heading to Busan, right? If our destination had been China… wouldn’t we have taken them to Incheon, which is much closer than Busan, which is far away?”

“…..”

Grounds that cannot be refuted at all.

However, Sasaki, who looked at Jae-young with complex and delicate eyes, said that he had deduced so easily a fact that ordinary people could not easily infer.

“You bastard… you weren’t an ordinary college student.”

And at his words, Jaeyoung smiled broadly.

“sure. Not only is he not an ordinary college student, but he is probably more valuable to the Japanese government than Jaekyun?”

“What do you mean?”

Sasaki asks back with a look that he can’t understand Jae-young’s words that he will be more valuable than his target, Jae-gyun. In response to his question, Jaeyoung asked with a face that he really didn’t know.

“You really don’t know? It seems that the Japanese government is lacking in information gathering capabilities more than I thought. I’m sure no one at Seomin University doesn’t know my name…”

Sasaki growled with an annoyed face as if he couldn’t understand Jaeyoung’s muttering with a surprised face.

“Don’t keep talking round and round, speak straight. Who the hell are you…”

“The most important synchro rate in driving a virtual reality system.”

Interrupting Sasaki’s words, Jaeyoung said with a smile of repentance.

“I am the one with the highest synchro rate on this planet.”

“what….?”

Sasaki is instantly stunned by the completely unexpected story. With one hand, lightly pushing the gun pointed at his forehead, Jaeyoung smiled and said with a relaxed attitude.

“The story of kidnapping and dragging us away instead of killing us means that… the Japanese government wants technology related to virtual reality… or recruiting talented people like Jaekyun, right?”

Jae-young understands and uses the situation he is in faster than anyone else. He asked, looking at Sasaki who couldn’t say anything with a stiff face as if he had been stabbed.

“Then let’s talk about it properly. What do you want from us and what can the Japanese government do for you?”

* * *

Eight hours after Jaeyoung and Jaekyun were kidnapped.

President Lee Mi-yeon sat in her office and anxiously waited for a call from the National Intelligence Service, but contrary to her expectations, the phone was very quiet.

“How is Alice’s current situation?”

Alice can communicate directly with Argos.

She was silent for a moment at CEO Lee Mi-yeon’s question, and then gave the answer.

[Currently, the two hostages have safely arrived at Busan Port and are currently loaded onto a camouflage vessel prepared for stowaways and are waiting to depart for Japan.] “Are

both of them safe?”

[Currently, it is analyzed as such.]

A vessel under the Cabinet Investigation Office anchored in Busan Port. Lee Mi-yeon, who checked the video footage of Jae-young and Jae-kyun, who were detained by force, muttered with a frown on her face.

“Like these stupid NIS agents. No, what the hell are you supposed to do if you can’t swallow even though you’ve been feeding this much?”

The information provided is limited as far as possible in order not to raise any doubts. So, although the information on the personal information of the two kidnapped people and the vehicle they were riding was limited, Lee Mi-yeon, the president of the company, was secretly hoping that the best intelligence agency in Korea would solve it somehow.

However, contrary to her expectations, the appearance of the National Intelligence Service in this kidnapping case was simply incompetent.

“How much time is left?”

[Currently, there are 2 hours left until departure.]

After 2 hours, Jae-gyun and Jae-young will leave Korea and go to Japan. However, it was a very difficult situation for President Lee Mi-yeon to directly intervene.

“Can’t we handle it on our own?”

[No. As long as the National Intelligence Service is aware of the case, further intervention or provision of information can significantly increase the risk of having doubts about the case. I advise you to consider other options for your safety.]

As long as you don’t know, as long as you know that the two have already been kidnapped, if you move further than that, your suspicions about Arcadia could be amplified.

Since the existence of Argos and the security of Project Prism are of the highest priority, Ellis somehow persuaded Lee Mi-yeon, the president of the company, to prevent the two from being kidnapped to Japan.

[The threat the two pose to the security of Arcadia and the United States is close to 0%. It seems to be a reasonable decision not to be involved in the case any further.]

No matter how talented and potential talents are, they are just criminals who practically do not know anything about virtual reality technology. That’s why Argos and Ellis were also judged not to be a threat, but President Lee Mi-yeon had a different idea.

“No, I don’t care about that friend named Jae-gyun, but since Jae-yeong’s influence in Arcadia has grown too much, I can’t help it.”

[I don’t understand what the manager is saying.]

Alice asked what he was talking about.

President Lee Mi-yeon gave her an order with a meaningful expression on her face.

“Excluding the existence of Alice Player Dex, make a long-term prediction scenario. What will happen as it is, without adding any other variables.”

[Confirm command. I envision a prediction scenario applying that variable.]

Uh-uh.

Alice, a transcendent artificial intelligence that contemplates and analyzes everything in Arcadia.

Far beyond human understanding and thinking, she made full use of her vast computing power and quickly began to predict what would happen in Arcadia in the future.

[Night of Perdition]

[Festival of Blood]

[Hell in this World]

[Release of the Forbidden Seal]

[Human Arrogance]

[Rage of the Dragon]

.

.

.

The rice cakes of the great epics who slept in Arcadia.

At least 10 years… no, it should have been revealed decades later… All the clues to the grandiose scenarios that no one could easily handle had been revealed, so there was a chance to deal with the narratives in Arcadia that will be opened in the future. The user did not exist.

That’s why Alice was able to realize that in the hundreds and thousands of scenarios unraveling in countless ways, they all end up with the same ending.

[Scenario No. 1 perish]

[Scenario No. 2 perish]

[Scenario No. 3 Perish]

.

.

.

[Scenario No. 2523 Destruction]

The process was all different, but in the end, all the scenarios in which ignorant users opened Pandora’s box that they couldn’t even handle and ended up in destruction.

That’s why Alice was able to realize why CEO Lee Mi-yeon was trying so hard to save him.

[Scenario prediction complete. If that variable is excluded, Arcadia will perish 100% within a minimum of 2 months and a maximum of 5 years.]

Arcadia will walk the path of destruction with a 100% chance. When the guess he had guessed was correct, CEO Lee Mi-yeon sighed and muttered with an annoyed face.

“No, why the hell did you put in the second half crisis scenario or what the hell? If it wasn’t for that, this wouldn’t have happened…..”

Hundreds… thousands of second half crisis scenarios that Kim Min-soo conceived and put together with Jack. She felt dizzy just thinking about the fact that there were bombs scattered all over the continent that would bring about a very powerful and dangerous crisis that could destroy Arcadia.

[According to the saved database…. The top manager said, ‘To make the game fun and not boring, you must create a huge risk in the second half. That’s how people get immersed in the game with a thrill.’]

Scenarios that Minsu, who has a natural talent for sticking huge and bulky candy into people’s mouths, came up with himself. Even if all the adventurers and Arcadia NPCs work together, they are gigantic scenarios with a perverted level of difficulty that cannot be guaranteed to be prevented, so President Lee Mi-yeon could not give up Jae-young even to prevent them.

“To be honest… If it’s him, wouldn’t he blink an eye even if this Arcadia were to walk the path of destruction?”

[It is analyzed that it is probably so. If it is the best administrator’s tendency… Rather than the administrator intervening to prevent destruction, he will choose to terminate Arcadia’s service or completely reset it.] Unlimited

freedom. and endless possibilities.

The creator of these two mottos, and the one who turned Arcadia into a world out of control.

Kim Min Soo.

It was clear that he wouldn’t blink an eye to bring down the shutters of Arcadia, which is entangled with billions of subscribers and numerous national corporations, or to blow up all user data overnight. began to shine vividly.

[what? Since Arcadia has been destroyed, they’re completely resetting the server?]

[Is this damn company really kidding lol]

[Why did they say that they operate at the level of shit mangem, but now they’re just going to go?] [

You fuckin bastards! give me my money! My help!!!!]

[Infinite freedom? infinite possibilities? You bastards should do that to the fullest!]

[You bastards who will do XXXX and XXXXX. With the boss! Where did the boss go!!!!]

With Arcadia completely initialized.

A riot of billions of users who were very angry about it.

Recalling the office building of Arcadia Co., Ltd., which will be smashed to pieces simultaneously all over the world, and imagining her own miserable future as the scapegoat and shield as the final responsible person for all this, President Lee Mi-yeon trembled without realizing it.

“No….. That’s absolutely not possible…”

CEO Lee Mi-yeon, who doesn’t want to die from being stabbed to death by an unknown assailant on the street or beaten to death by an angry crowd.

So, with a hard face, she asked one person to contact her.

“Call Ellis Jennica.”

At the age of only 15, he became the head of the world’s largest bio company Silico The Bio Industry.

The only granddaughter of bloodless, bloodless mad scientist Silikoff Paul, and the second most insane person in the world.

To Jenica Paul.
