Chapter 365 Contract
Although they are both from the Foundation, the Foundations that Lin Yayin and Xu Jing are talking about are completely different.
One is the Cradle of Humankind Project, and the other is the Human Connection Project. It seems that the purposes of these two organizations are very different from the literal meaning.
Will there be two Foundations in the future?
But then again, Foundations are something that can be established with money, similar to the modern Children's Charity Foundation and Parkinson's Medical Insurance Foundation.
"Let me guess, you came from the future to our era to change some things so that your era can change a little bit?" Chen Ke said.
"To be precise... yes, but this is a mutually beneficial behavior. You have to know that without the Foundation, there is no future for mankind." Lin Yayin said with a smile.
"But even if you change the past, can you ensure that the future development and changes are really as you wish?" Chen Ke asked.
"We have our own way to make things move forward along the planned trajectory." Lin Yayin said.
"If things change, how do you know?" Chen Ke said.
The timeline of 2006 was abandoned by the foundation where Xu Jing was, but the people who lived in 2009 had no impression of that year 2006.
This means that while the universe is repairing the necklace, it will also affect the thinking and will of the people in the beads.
"When the universe changes, people's senses will adapt accordingly and take the parts that have already changed for granted. But the machine will not be affected. We will have a special department to observe and record all the changes." Lin Yayin answered.
"Then what do you want to change?" Chen Ke asked.
Lin Yayin looked at Li Moyang, then at Chen Ke, then walked up to him and said softly: "On the contrary, Chen Ke. I don't want to change anything, but I want you to help me maintain it."
Chen Ke didn't understand, and looked at Lin Yayin without saying a word.
"Li Moyang is very important to me and to the future foundation. I want to make sure he lives until he finishes what he should do." Lin Yayin explained.
"Someone wants to kill Li Moyang?" Chen Ke looked at Li Moyang and asked.
"That's right. Not only in your era, but also the Foundation's competitors hope to kill him to change the future. This is not allowed by the Foundation." Lin Yayin said.
Chen Ke noticed that Lin Yayin never mentioned subjective reality and objective reality to him from beginning to end, and he was not sure whether she knew what the metaphor of the necklace just now meant.
But he felt that the future of this Lin Yayin seemed to be different from Xu Jing's...
Moreover, when the professor talked to her, he mentioned a list, which should have many candidates, but Lin Yayin did not mention it at all.
She concealed something from Chen Ke, but if she thought about it carefully, if it was Chen Ke himself, he would say the same thing.
After all, if there are too many people on the list, one killer can't protect them all, and it's meaningless to say too much. It's better to just explain the corresponding protection target to each killer, saving time and effort.
"I'm not a private bodyguard." Chen Ke waved his hand, he still had his own problems to deal with.
All the clues about the life countdown were cut off, and even Corrigan didn't know what it was. Chen Ke was at a loss now. The foundation might know something, but now was not the time to ask.
This kind of extremely secret matter cannot be easily mentioned to others, otherwise it is likely to cause unexpected trouble.
"No, I don't need you to follow Li Moyang every day." Lin Yayin said.
Li Moyang looked at Chen Ke, with an indescribable emotion in his eyes.
"Then what do you want me to do?" Chen Ke asked.
"Help him clear the obstacles." Lin Yayin replied.
"This means... you want me to kill people... like Corrigan?" Chen Ke finally understood that this was another assassination contract.
"What Li Moyang did in this era is very important to us in the future. You have to make sure he can succeed without suspense." Lin Yayin smiled.
"Let his competitors disappear... right?" Chen Ke asked.
"That's right." Lin Yayin said.
Chen Ke looked at Li Moyang and said, "Don't you plan to say anything?"
"I have nothing to say." Li Moyang shook his head.
"You have only two choices, Chen Ke. Take this contract or disappear from this time and space. You must know that the foundation will never leave witnesses unless they serve the foundation." Lin Yayin said with a smile, with a hint of threat in her tone.
Chen Ke stepped back slightly and felt that the atmosphere in the room was a little weird. He looked back and saw that the windows and doors on the wall were gone.
"I'm sorry, Chen Ke. I don't mean to lie to you, but I think it will be good for all three of us if you take this contract." Li Moyang said.
This is a Hongmen Banquet, and they didn't expect Chen Ke to refuse.
Chen Ke didn't know how powerful Lin Yayin was, but he felt that if he tried his best, it would not be a problem to escape.
He summoned Angele's elegy and prepared to let his mobile game release 3000 degrees of magic fire to burn the two people in the room into carbon powder.
However, nothing happened.
"What's going on?" Chen Ke gritted his teeth.
"You know... Chen Ke, there is a reason why I bought this manor." Li Moyang said.
"This manor itself is an alienated object, HCP-4283, an ordinary space. All psychic powers are ineffective here." Lin Yayin said.
"Not everything is offline/cannot work, we can compete/repair."
A confused voice sounded in Chen Ke's mind, it was the stone in the heart...
But the stone takes 90% of its lifespan to use once, and the next consumption must be more than the last time...Chen Ke can't afford it now.
"Chen Ke, I promise you, I will give you the best reward, and this is what you have always wanted, to contact with the real extraordinary... Have you forgotten?" Li Moyang persuaded.
"I don't like being threatened, Li Moyang, not at all." Chen Ke said, while taking out the 67-type pistol and pointing it at Li Moyang.
"Okay... okay... Chen Ke, there is no need for us to make the relationship awkward." Lin Yayin gave in.
The windows and doors on the wall reappeared, and the air around them became a little fresher.
"Chen Ke, take this contract, I can give you something you want, but not in this era." Lin Yayin said.
"For example..." Chen Ke asked.
"Symbiotic stone, one stone can make you live 40 years longer than others. How about it?" Lin Yayin asked.
Chen Ke slowly put down the gun.
40 years... This is simply...
Chen Ke didn't quite understand the principle of the symbiotic stone, but Corrigan undoubtedly survived to this day with the help of this stone. Chen Ke didn't know if this stone was useful to him. If it was useful... then his life span could be freed from the constraints of hours and rush to a new realm with "years" as the unit...
"As a mortal, Chen Ke, living a few decades longer than others should be a very tempting reward. I think this is more real than money." Lin Yayin said.
Chen Ke put the gun back into the holster and sighed.
"Let's talk about the contract."
