Chapter 600: The Silent Society
New Lightcasting City.
The first floor of the Enlightened Underground Base.
"The Silent Society."
Chakolo looked at the man in front of him.
He pondered for a second: "Your position is a clerk?"
"Your guess is very correct."
"The Silent Society, Golden Clerk, Rachel Harvey." The man smiled, put his right hand on his chest, and bowed slightly: "Salute to you, the powerful and fair 'Rebel'."
"Golden Clerk." Chakolo narrowed his eyes and crossed his hands: "As far as I know, there are not many clerks of this level in the entire Silent Society."
"I just checked your information. You arrived in the Lightcasting City three years ago and experienced the war between us and the company in person - and neither side was aware of your identity."
The "check" in Chakolo's mouth was obviously through the implanted personal terminal, contacting the intelligence department, and searching and comparing the information of the person in front of him.
This man who looked to be in his early forties, dressed in a suit, had a capable temperament and a sense of fatigue that belonged to the company.
The streamlined dark silver mechanical prosthesis that replaced the right hand is also the "Struggler IV" that has been popular among business people in the past four years. It is compatible with all mainstream interfaces on the market, including intelligent AI assistants, real-time PPT projection, high performance enough to run professional software, and multiple functions such as beating competitors.
Anyone who looks at him will think that he is an authentic company employee.
And the file shows that the other party is indeed a manager of a medium-sized company, and there is nothing unusual about his daily performance.
"——After all, he is a clerk, and integrating into the local environment is a basic skill."
Song Shi sat on the sofa on the other side and threw a tomato-flavored fruit candy into his mouth.
"And it's a gold title. If it was so easy to be discovered, the Silent Society would have closed down long ago."
"You know the Silent Society quite well." The man, or "Rachel", kept smiling: "But there is a small mistake to correct. In history, the Silent Society has experienced several generations, which is what you call 'closing down'."
"You are very sincere."
Cha Keluo looked at the other party for a few seconds and said this.
"It has nothing to do with sincerity. 'Truth' is one of the eternal creeds that the Silent Society adheres to." Rachel shook her head: "As a member of the society, if we are ashamed to express our own history and hide it, how dare we pursue the truth?"
Cha Keluo nodded first to show respect, and then said: "Let me summarize the current situation."
"You did not hesitate to expose your existence and took the initiative to find Song Shi, wanting to invite him to the headquarters of the Silent Society to participate in a test. And Song Shi brought you to see me together."
"That's right." Rachel acted neither humble nor arrogant: "This is an order from the Twelve Council. Please believe me, we have no ill will towards you, the Enlightened One, and Mr. Song Shi."
The highest leadership body of the [Silent Society], the "Twelve Council".
"Of course you don't have any ill intentions. Who do you have ill intentions towards?"
Song Shi chewed candy with a crackling sound and raised his eyebrows: "The subjectivity of attitude will inevitably affect the objectivity of the record, so you claim to be absolutely neutral - are you really neutral?"
"I'm very sorry about this." Rachel sighed very sincerely: "We strive for objectivity, but this idea itself affects objectivity. Mr. Chakolo, Mr. Song Shi, the only thing we can do is to try our best and keep chasing it."
"Ha test."
Chakolo suddenly laughed.
He shook his head and smiled, "You didn't come to ask for my opinion, you just came to tell me."
"Really." Song Shi followed with a smile, and said leisurely: "After all, leaving without saying goodbye is a bit anti-human. Let me be frank, I have agreed to leave in a while, and I told you in advance."
"Then I have nothing to say." Cha Keluo nodded: "Since you have made your own decision, I wish you a safe journey. Before you leave, remember to hand over the affairs. Jiuyu Defense is still a big stall now."
"The position of president is open to me?"
"Keep it for you." Cha Keluo readily agreed.
"There is one more thing."
After a few words to discuss the result, Cha Keluo's eyes turned back to Rachel: "Bronze, silver, gold, stone, I am very curious, why would a gold-ranked clerk, second only to the stone-ranked clerk, choose to stay in Zhuguang City?"
Although he said "curious", there was obviously no room for rejection in the look Cha Keluo cast.
Yes, many people know that the Silent Society maintains a huge group of "scribes" scattered all over Terra, repeating observations and records in every possible way.
No mistakes, just go to the 6-9 book bar!
But there is obviously a huge difference between scribes.
[The Silent Society] is an absolute elite of such a behemoth, lurking in the City of Forged Light for three years. Whether as the "Commander-in-Chief of the Enlightened" or the "Rebel", Chakoro must find out the reason.
"Ah, Mr. Chakoro, you should know that the Silent Society is the largest [Revelation] psychic group in Terra now." Rachel's smile was restrained a little.
"Very convincing." Chakoro agreed, but then shook his head: "But I need a more detailed explanation."
Rachel sighed softly, but she did not hesitate. It was obvious that she had prepared herself mentally before coming here.
He raised his head and looked around at Song Shi and Cha Keluo.
"You two, what do you think of the theory of 'historical node'?"
- Here it comes.
Song Shi thought.
It was indeed a familiar set. The Silent One learned the standard opening of the clerk.
And the next moment, without waiting for the two to answer, Rachel said loudly.
"Terra's time is long enough, and history has always been the product of many different opinions."
"Some people presuppose it as an objective and real whole, with its own time view law, and try to construct "real history" through empirical evidence. Some people go a step further and try to find an ultimate law. All the meaning, purpose and direction of history are just one side of this ultimate law."
"Some people no longer stand only from the perspective of observers, but choose to include themselves in the observation. All history exists as they participate in the composition of history. Others use the present as a direct reference system and firmly believe that history is a process of continuous development towards a more progressive, freer and more perfect direction. Everything is unstoppable and cannot be questioned."
"But we, the Silent Society, believe that history is not an unstoppable, complete and unified long river - you should have heard that the perfect "circle" is actually composed of infinite edges, and it is also a member of the polygon."
"Terra's history has never been a straight line. On the contrary, it is connected by many segments of varying lengths, and the birth of these segments is the "historical node."
