Chapter 857: Chapter 835: First Come, First Served
When Song Lan spoke up, the dining table fell silent.
Even the quick-witted and haughty RT6 couldn’t continue to argue with him, after all, it’s hard to argue with a villain who is openly villainous.
Lu Xiang felt that Song Lan’s widespread unpopularity was justified, as those unfamiliar with him would easily view his actions and words as those of a terrorist or a devil.
"At least you’re honest."
After a long while, RT6 finally spoke, though his tone sounded somewhat muffled.
In this respect, Song Lan was much better than those who feigned grand intentions but in reality only pursued their own desires. On the other hand, she was extremely worried about what he would do once he got his hands on the "Sea of Souls," this incredibly convenient tool.
Unlike those who had tried to control it before, the consciousness of Psychics was extraordinarily powerful, and Song Lan was one of the best among them. It was likely that the built-in optimization system would struggle to make any modifications.
And as she had said before, the "Sea of Souls" was enough to change the entire structure of the United Government.
Manipulating Councilors, covertly controlling the entire nation...
"Why are you all looking at me like that?"
Song Lan was confused, the atmosphere felt as if a fishbone had suddenly been stuck in his teeth during a fish soup meal, "Isn’t it you who said that no one wants this thing now?"
"I did say that." RT6 replied, "but you have finally shown your true colors, using it to control the entire Review Meeting and even the United Government."
This is what Psychics are!
Although their mother had cautioned them to remain cautious and composed in the face of Song Lan, as challengers from almost an entire era, RT6 found it hard to view Psychics with indifference.
"Why would you think that?"
"Is it not so?"
"Of course not."
Song Lan immediately denied, "Power only brings trouble and enemies, can you imagine how much effort it takes to control the entire United Government?"
Even now, with a whole Review Meeting discussing the issues of the United Government, there were still endless troubles. If all these matters were piled onto him, he feared he would go completely gray or even bald before he reached thirty!
"You have to believe him."
Lu Xiang also stepped forward to speak for Song Lan, "He has repeatedly declined invitations from the rescuer department and internal promotions within the Law Enforcers."
The Law Enforcers system noticed Song Lan’s potential. With the precedent of the seventeenth district, they wanted to deploy Song Lan to another frontier city to supervise the Law Enforcers there to improve the high crime rate.
Today, the seventeenth district is thriving, but neighboring frontier cities still have constant problems.
Even because of receiving wandering criminals, the public security environment of their neighbors worsened.
Lu Xiang still remembered that the neighboring city’s Law Enforcers gave Song Lan a very grand invitation. They even created a website named We Need You to invite Song Lan, but Song Lan had Dr. Bai Zhu change the banner of the site to "Believe in Yourself!" that very night.
"Others might lie, but he speaks the truth."
Lu Xiang added, "Besides, if he wanted to control the Review Meeting, he wouldn’t need to rely on such a tool."
"Then what do you want to use the ’Sea of Souls’ for?"
RT6 became confused, but after careful thought, she somewhat agreed with Lu Xiang’s rationale. If Song Lan were interested in power, he could have easily taken control of the entire Review Meeting during the incident in the First Region.
However, as she later heard, not only did Song Lan not do that, but he also ran back to the seventeenth district at the first opportunity after the event concluded, not even leaving a chance to meet the Chairperson of the Council, rendering the Chairperson’s eloquence useless.
The "Emperor" said, considering Song Lan’s actions, the Chairperson had originally wanted to promote him to General.
"First of all, according to the first law of the Scavenger’s Manual, whoever finds something first owns it. Just by being the first to pick up this unwanted thing, anyone else who wants it later is committing robbery, which is a criminal offense," he said.
Although RT6 couldn’t find fault with this statement, she still felt it was harsh to hear Song Lan describe the "Sea of Souls" as something unwanted.
No matter how you put it, it was a legacy created by her mother and her brothers.
Song Lan then said, "Next is just some technical operational issues that I’d like to consult with you, as you are the expert in this area."
Here it comes!
Upon hearing this, RT6 frowned.
This Psychic was finally about to bare his fangs!
For a moment, she couldn’t imagine what he might do with this tool that could change the world.
"Does uploading consciousness necessarily mean the death of the original body? Or is there a way to ensure that the original can still live after the consciousness is uploaded?"
"You may have misunderstood my words. I never said that, uploaded individuals necessarily die," she said accurately. "More accurately, they lose their value, which is also why the Council initially halted this project. They don’t trust anyone, not only because the uploaded consciousness might be altered, but also because their consciousness could always be put into younger, healthier, and stronger bodies. For them, losing value is no different from death; that’s how they normally eliminate those things that have lost their value."
