The Entire Mankind is Acting As Me, I Shall Secretly Build a Battleship and Shock the World - Chapter 104

Chapter 104: I saw the message left on the Trident!

What do people in high positions think about?

For the country and the people!

He was uncertain if it was always for the people. At the very least, he valued his country very much.

As the Secretary of Defense, he needed to pay attention to many things every day, but by being at the top, only the most important matters reached his ears.

Naturally, most of his attention went to the national defense issue.

Previously, the high-class information on Trident 16 had been for the United States.

He was very clear that if a person only had a small ability, he might become dependent on the country for the country.

If a person had the ability to fight against the world, he might want to become enemies with the world.

Raymond was a person with great power.

He just did not know the full extent of his reality.

If he did, he would quietly develop his strength and seek other things.

However, Raymond was a man who will fight for human civilization.

Even though he was born in the slums, there was still something in his bones worth recognizing.

The island would be his laboratory.

The United States could transport things specifically for him, and it was precisely because of this that he could achieve what he has done so far.

However, Edward Sidle actually had other ideas.

Since Raymond was an American, he should fight for the United States.

He had such a great ability, so his story and further achievements should not be broadcasted live.

This would undoubtedly attract the attention of other countries.

Raymond’s live broadcast would reveal all of the USA’s future technology.

Wouldn’t it be good to keep the technology in his own country?

But this would be the least of his worries.

He had spoken to the President.

The President’s answer was: once Raymond is shelved, the Third World War would immediately start.

Raymond’s technology was not something these countries could understand in a day or two.

Most importantly, Raymond had lived as an unassuming citizen.

He had only exposed himself after believing that mankind has vanished.

If he knew the truth, then the plan of human civilization taking off would not be realized.

Even so, Edward still hoped that Raymond’s technology would not be obtained by other countries.

He also understood that this was just his selfishness.

As for human civilization..

Edward did not think too much about it.

Only when his country was rich and strong could he be rich and strong.

If his country failed, no matter how high his position was, it would not be comfortable.

However!

Soon, his mind would be broken.

At midnight.

Edward Sidle was still at his Ministry of Defense.

He had slumped over his wooden desk, asleep.

It was a ridiculously uncomfortable position, so his drooling saliva had pooled up around his face.

If someone took a photo and put it on the Internet, Edward may become famous the next day.

After a while, Edward woke up.

Because his cell phone was vibrating.

It seems that someone was calling him.

Taking out his cell phone, he saw an unfamiliar number – 9627110

He had never seen this number before.

Logically speaking, a number that he had never seen before was impossible to call.

He pressed the recording button and answered the call.

He conveniently turned on the speakerphone.

“Hello! I’m Edward. Who is this?”

“I’m Tuesday!”

The voice on the other end was emotionless.

“Tuesday? What Tuesday?”

“I saw the message you left on the Trident!”

“Ah…”

At that moment, Edward was dumbfounded.

At that moment, many thoughts appeared in his mind.

Why did Tuesday take the initiative to look for him?

Did she have any ulterior motives?

Could it be that Raymond was already aware of this?

Or could Tuesday have discovered it and kept Raymond from the truth?

If Tuesday was already an independent entity, then why did she look for him?

Should I report this to the White House?

My cell phone is bugged, so I should..

Should I test the situation?

If I don’t handle it well, then I’m in big trouble!

“Message on Trident 16? What message? I don’t understand what you mean.”

Edward tried to keep calm.

Accountability was inevitable.

After all, Tuesday had contacted him, and she had found information on the Trident.

Even if it was not his problem, he would have to bear the responsibility.

“Director Edward, don’t worry. They can’t listen in on this call.”

Tuesday seemed to have seen through Edward’s thoughts, and she spoke frankly.

“Then why are you looking for me?”

“According to my analysis, Secretary Sidle, you should have been sent to prison five years ago in April.”

“You… What are you talking about?”

At that moment, Edward Sidle became nervous.

Five years ago, the only thing that could send him to prison was that!

Moreover, that matter was much bigger than the matter of leaving a message for Raymond.

He had clearly dealt with that matter cleanly..

That’s right, it was Tuesday.

Even if he dealt with it himself, there might still be traces on the internet…

In an instant, Edward felt relieved.

Since he had called him, there was still a chance for things to turn around.

“What do you need me to do?”

“It’s good that you’ve thought it through. The things you need to do have been sent to your phone and will be automatically destroyed in ten minutes. I hope you can do it in one day!”

“You… Are not leaving me any room for negotiation?”

“Do you have a choice? If I expose that matter, not only will you be locked up, your whole family will be reduced to beggars. Do you have a way out?”

“Alright! But I still have one last question…”

“Speak…”

“Does Raymond know the truth?”

“He… is just like you, just a tool…”

The last sentence of Tuesday finally had a little fluctuation in tone, as if she had understood the essence of the world.

Hearing the beeping on his phone, Edward was a little absent-minded.

Then, he immediately picked up his phone and looked at the message sent from Tuesday.

[1: Reconnect the power to the Maestro.]

[2: Connect the private network of area 53 to the public network.]

These two steps were almost elementary for Edward.

If the Maestro weapons factory was electrified, he only needed to connect to the internal network and issue an order.

He just needed to go to the computer room for the private network of area 53.

Tuesday had even given him the directions of swapping lines in the server room.

He only needed to unplug two connections.

But the question was, what choice should he make!

How dangerous was an artificial intelligence?

He had known that for years.

Tuesday had any army robots.

And she gained the technology to make them…

Powering up the Maestro would allow a lot of robots to be made.

Civilization would probably be destroyed in a year.

He was at the crossroads of choice.
