Mystery Paradise: Wishing Power Demon-Chapter 256 - 255 Goodwill Choice
Chapter 256: Chapter 255 Goodwill Choice
Chapter 256 -255 Goodwill Choice
“The most ingenious part of this system lies in the mutual checks and balances between rationality and emotionality, as well as the use of logic as the basis for measuring everything,” it said after a few seconds of silence. “Once the Trinity was successfully operational, it first siphoned off the company’s funds to establish the Angel Foundation, then relied on investing in those potential new companies to obtain returns—something K used to do quite often. However, I refined the rules further, focusing primarily on technology, biotech, and information companies. These companies can’t claim to have completely abolished exploitation, but their salaries and benefits are much better than those of traditional multinational monopolies. And indeed, their research can bring blessings to humanity.”
“As for philanthropic work, without investors’ opinions or the intervention of executing agencies, various projects are now progressing better. To date, the foundation has established more than three thousand primary schools and tens of thousands of medical centers in impoverished regions around the world.”
“Wait a second… the term ‘angel investor,’ it doesn’t have anything to do with you, does it?” Ailuodi suddenly said.
“Heh, that’s right,” Dan smiled. “The term dates back to 1978, initiated by K himself. So, when the Trinity set up the foundation, it naturally adopted this name.”
“And you were not an angel from the beginning…”
“Sorry, I wasn’t able to tell you the truth from the start. Since all my memories come from K, emotionally speaking, I also inherited the identity of the angel,” K replied.
Chaoyang couldn’t help but feel a sense of awe. In other words, the “person” who had been guiding the newly awakened angels all along was not a senior predecessor, but a unified supercomputer.
Although the computer said K was badly injured after the fight with the Demon, that was still far from death. If he could encounter an angel with awakened healing abilities, like Tiffany, he still had a chance to live a normal lifespan.

In other words, he gave up hope of treatment and contributed all of himself to the future of mankind.
This was undoubtedly a high-cost experiment.
K hoped to pave a way that did not base itself on the exploitation of companies, to serve as an example for other angels.
Dan said he made tremendous sacrifices for the angels, which couldn’t be called an exaggeration.
After pondering for a moment, Chaoyang decided to ask a technical question, “Then, the robot bodies from before, what is their relationship with your true self…?”
The indicator lights on the logical computer flickered rapidly for a few seconds.
“So that’s how it is, your awareness of this must be related to some ability, isn’t it?” K answered briefly, “The robot bodies are also myself. I don’t control them to speak or act through signals, but project myself through quantum entanglement. And the updates for rationality and emotionality are ‘personally witnessed’ through my own eyes. Does this answer satisfy you?”
“I understand,” Chaoyang realized. No wonder he couldn’t detect any signal connection between them—the secure communication based on quantum entanglement was beyond the detection range of Cyber Eye. “But this technology couldn’t possibly have been created at the time of the Trinity’s construction, could it?”
“Of course not, the Trinity has also been upgraded several generations, and because I invest without additional conditions, I have close connections with research institutions in various countries. For example, quantum communication technology comes from the Chinese Academy of Sciences.”
“You mentioned earlier a family researching neuroscience… could it be the Qianyuan family?” Ailuodi also asked.
“Oh? Do you know Qianyuan Jie?” K asked, somewhat surprised.
“Well… sort of… but he doesn’t know us,” she said vaguely.
“That’s right, his arrival gave me an opportunity to try,” the other party admitted openly. “I wonder if his research has made any new progress over the years.”
If not for that brain injection liquid, Qianyuan’s research would likely have come to an end, Chaoyang thought to himself, admitting that it was indeed a kind of fate.
“Excuse me, I take back what I said before,” Ailuodi suddenly winked at Dan, “We’ll come to visit often in the future, so please take good care of us.”
“Eh, I might not have…”
Chaoyang started to reply but cut himself off as he felt a pinch at his waist, “cough, cough, if I am free, I’ll come over with her.”
Dan curled the corner of his mouth and nodded, “The castle’s gates are always open for you two.”
…
Pearl Harbor, Pacific Fleet Headquarters.
“Mr. Prence, please come in.” The secretary at the door put down her phone and nodded at the captain sitting by the door.
The latter stood up, patted his uniform, and walked through the doors of the headquarters’ office.
In the room sat just one person, none other than the fleet commander, Admiral White Sean.
Seeing his old superior, Prence let out a slight sigh of relief. After all, he had been urgently summoned to Pearl Harbor to report, and he thought it might be because the missile launched from the warship had caused a big problem.
“Take a seat,” White said as he straightened the documents on his desk, “Would you like something to drink?”
“Thank you, no need, I just had coffee outside,” Prence quickly declined. He wouldn’t dare to have his old boss pour him a drink personally.
“Alright, then I’ll get straight to the point. The investigation results of the DDG107 misfire incident are in,” he stood up and walked to the window of the room—where he could see the neatly arranged warships in the military harbor—”Weapon experts believe it was indeed not caused by human operation but was a system malfunction at the time. As for the location it fired at, the Marine Corps has checked and found nothing unusual. DDG107 will be cleared to sail again starting tomorrow.”
No abnormalities?
Prence raised his eyebrows in surprise—he had asked around for news from the Marines’ side, and there were talks of a deep pit appearing under the island, with obvious traces of man-made structures. How could it suddenly become “nothing unusual”?
But such inquiries were clearly against military discipline, and he couldn’t exactly bring that up outright.
Fortunately, DDG107 was cleared for normal operation again, and perhaps when he was free, he could personally send a small boat to check out Walazak Island.
“Understood, I’ll go home and pack my bags. I can be on the post by tonight.”
“That won’t be necessary, you take a good rest,” White said with his hands behind his back.
“Uh…” Prence was taken aback, “I don’t understand what you mean…”
“Although the DDG107 misfire was accidental, the measures you took were seriously flawed: first, you issued a military intelligence alert to the Hawaii naval harbor, then you contacted the coastal defense forces and the patrolling ships in the vicinity for support, leading the General Staff to believe that there was an enemy situation in the Western Pacific, which in turn triggered a first-level alert and a series of chain reactions,” the old boss said slowly, “The investigation team believes that you are no longer suitable for the position of captain, so you will be dismissed according to the contract. The official documents will be issued in a few days, I just wanted to give you a heads-up to prepare you mentally.”
Dismissal?
The word struck Prence like a thunderbolt!
“No, it wasn’t like that… I thought someone had hacked into the ship’s control system, possibly to launch a missile attack on the West Coast, so that’s why I notified the coastal defense forces,” he hurriedly defended, “And even if the reaction was exaggerated, at most it should’ve led to a demotion or transfer, right? Admiral sir, could you please convey my side of the story…”
As the other party turned around, Prence’s voice gradually faded.
In the eyes of Admiral White Sean, there was regret, there was an apology, but there was decisively no room for negotiation.
“Believe me, my child, this is the best outcome I could secure after fighting for you,”
his superior said in a somber tone.
