Genius Club-Chapter 1188 - 43 Everyone Refuses_3
"So... regardless of who you are, if you’ve found the scientist, please ensure he develops the relevant drug or equipment as soon as possible."
However.
Newton shook his head at this:
"Don’t oversimplify things, Galileo. What if someone finds the scientist earlier and kills him instead?"
"For those planning to hibernate long-term, overcoming the side effect of amnesia is certainly beneficial; but not everyone shares this thought. If one really wishes to eliminate old bones like us who hold the power of discourse... completely sealing the potential to preserve memory, isn’t that the best solution?"
Upon hearing Newton’s statement.
Gauss nodded thoughtfully:
"Indeed... considering it from the perspective of controlling discourse power and monopolizing rights... amnesiac hibernation precisely serves as the fairest... the most reasonable equality."
...
Hmm?
Gauss suddenly felt something strange.
What happened?
This time, why did no one interrupt him?
How come it was so considerate to let him finish what he wanted to say?
As a result.
He just raised his head.
Only to meet Galileo’s eyes right in front of him, feeling the cold tension between them.
"No... it wasn’t me..."
Scrawny Gauss hurriedly waved his hands:
"I was only... doing... rational analysis..."
Subsequently.
The elder wearing the Einstein mask looked at Da Vinci:
"Da Vinci, what’s your question?"
Miss Da Vinci raised her head:
"I would like to know, the most recent occurrence of a global disaster, how long ago was it?"
Einstein was silent for a few seconds and shook his head again:
"Refuse to answer, the questioning opportunity is void."
This Q&A.
Once again plunged the scene into silence.
Clearly.
Da Vinci’s question hit the mark.
Since Einstein refused to answer, it implies...
The answer to this question, or the question itself, is also related to a member of the Genius Club!
Jask scoffed:
"So, in the future at some point, there will indeed be a global disaster, and this disaster will be man-made."
"But what method can artificially create a global disaster? Logically, humans don’t possess such power... could it be that all the nuclear weapons in the world will be detonated?"
"Madness."
Galileo sighed and shook his head:
"It’s simply too crazy."
"I originally thought that aside from Copernicus, everyone’s future plans had limits, but now... one truly cannot overestimate human nature."
He smiled at the other side:
"What’s your take, Miss Da Vinci, why would you ask such a question?"
Miss Da Vinci also smiled slightly:
"By asking this question, getting a refusal to answer indicates that this isn’t part of my future plans, nor is it related to me."
"If it were indeed my plan, then Einstein would directly answer, since the club’s charter allows self-disclosure, and the questioning rule only prohibits involving other members, not oneself."
"Galileo, if you could be just as straightforward, why not repeat my question at the next gathering, asking it to Einstein from your own mouth?"
"Why not?"
Galileo, indifferent, relaxed to the extreme:
"It’s just... I still have a bunch of questions in my mind to ask now, this one might have to wait a bit."
...
Lin Xian remained silent.
The others certainly couldn’t comprehend the enigma between these two old acquaintances.
But he understood too well, too clearly.
Looking back from a Future World 600 years later, his huge information advantage made it clear...
Galileo and Da Vinci were simply testing each other!
Miss Da Vinci previously inquired about breakthroughs in the energy field, and now about the timing of a global disaster.
This exactly corresponds with the events in The Eighth Dreamland.
Breakthroughs in the energy field must be for Miss Da Vinci to consider the battery life of mechanical androids, which explains her concern.
Asking about the time of global disaster might be Da Vinci’s preparation for establishing the Savior company and leading humanity to rebuild civilization.
Now it can be basically confirmed that everything in The Eighth Dreamland... the Savior company, mechanical androids, and the future world... is definitely Miss Da Vinci’s handiwork!
As for Galileo.
His evasion was a bit awkward, he must have been hit at the core by Miss Da Vinci.
He’s indeed quite a performer.
But facing Miss Da Vinci... he truly seemed a bit out of sorts.
Sure enough, emotions cloud one’s judgment.
Galileo in front of Miss Da Vinci was like a teased Tom Cat, effortlessly falling into a self-disclosure trap.
Lin Xian licked his lips.
As a bystander, he naturally wouldn’t express any opinions.
But...
He indeed felt that Galileo’s previous response was very unwise.
Love really does lower people’s IQ.
Even for geniuses, this holds true.
But.
This was Lin Xian thinking from a god’s perspective.
From the perspectives of others, Galileo’s response probably seemed alright too.
For instance, Gauss,
For instance, Jask,
Them hearing the previous conversation between Da Vinci and Galileo, most certainly thought it was akin to a riddle, unable to grasp any key points.
After all, keywords like global disaster, energy issues, astronomical discoveries, and hibernation amnesia are too abstract, connecting them seems impossible.
Subsequently.
Einstein looked at Gauss.
In this gathering, Gauss also didn’t have a question to ask.
He has gone two sessions without asking a question... this made Lin Xian feel a bit uneasy.
Could it be that Gauss is also preparing to make a move?
What is he waiting for?
Einstein looked at Jask:
"Tesla, do you have any questions this time?"
Jask shook his head:
"I don’t have any questions."
Apparently, Jask also intends to be cautious, not planning to reveal more, prudence is wise.
Earlier, Galileo and Da Vinci’s questions have proven that, even if a question is refused an answer, it still reveals a lot of information.
Just like what Jask once advised Lin Xian —
"These geniuses are all sharp as knives, from just one mistake you make, they can deduce your identity and future plans, speaking more leads to errors!"
The painful lessons indeed made Jask more modest and steady.
At least he isn’t as reckless anymore.
Ultimately.
Einstein’s gaze turned to the Rhein Cat mask on Lin Xian’s face:
"Last Rhein, it’s your turn to ask a question."
Lin Xian directly asked the prepared question:
"In the current network world, a virus specifically designed to destroy super artificial intelligence is lurking, I want to know... is there a way to eliminate this virus."
Lin Xian was psychologically prepared for a distant answer.
Unexpectedly.
Einstein once again shook his head:
"Refuse to answer, the questioning opportunity is void."
Thus.
In this gathering.
Three geniuses asked three questions in total, but Einstein refused to answer all of them!
Indeed, one might say this is a sharp confrontation, relentless to the point.
Beside him, Miss Da Vinci chuckled softly:
"So that’s how it is, it seems this question is related to Turing’s future plans."
?
Lin Xian felt curious:
"Why do you say that?"
Guessed it!
Miss Da Vinci was right again!
The future virus that kills super AI VV indeed came from the future USB fake Yu Xi handed to Jask.
Initially, Lin Xian and Jask both speculated, suspecting that the one who sent fake Yu Xi back in time was future Turing!
But the problem is...
How did Miss Da Vinci know?
There should be some other clues.
"Easily guessed, you’re just late to the party."
Da Vinci looked at the Rhine Cat mask on Lin Xian’s face and said:
"At the previous meeting, Turing asked a similar question, and Einstein provided an answer."
"But now when you ask again, Einstein refuses to answer... doesn’t this clearly indicate something?"
Lin Xian nodded.
Indeed.
This logic is not difficult to unravel.
When Turing asked, Einstein answered, hinting it had nothing to do with any other genius.
Turing was the second-to-last to join the Genius Club; since the others are "innocent," it can only be part of Turing’s future plan.
Lin Xian quickly thought it over.
First, it can be confirmed that Jask absolutely doesn’t know about this matter, or else he would have been on guard long ago; it’s very possible that when Turing asked this question, Jask happened not to be present; or even more likely, Turing deliberately asked when Jask was absent.
Surely a group of deceitful old foxes.
However...
The good news is.
The ginger is still spicier with age, having an elder at home is a treasure.
Even though Einstein refuses to answer now, at least Miss Da Vinci knows the answer!
Hence, Lin Xian smiled at Da Vinci, imitating Galileo’s tact:
"Miss Da Vinci, after this gathering, could you spare some time?"
"Perhaps... we could engage in some [information exchange]!"
