Chapter 364 Let's get a freebie first.
Chen You sat in the chair, his gaze shifting back and forth between the glass panel and Li Guoan.
"Director Li, according to what you're saying, how should we respond to her?" Chen You asked.
He simply couldn't handle this kind of electronic fanatic who talked nonsense and talked about being a data enthusiast.
Li Guoan did not answer immediately.
He turned to look at the landscape painting on the wall, lost in thought.
"What's the date today in the Origin Realm Calendar?"
Sun Feng, the head of the data analysis team, immediately pulled up the data and glanced at it: "Reporting to the director, the Origin Era should be the 18th."
"The 18th," Li Guoan repeated softly, "Do you remember what day it was?"
Zhang Yunhai was stunned for half a second, then his eyes lit up.
"Mythical-level skill [Reign Supreme]!" Zhang Yunhai's voice involuntarily rose.
"Today is the day the Guild Boss Battle begins! [Reign Supreme] can forcibly replace the World Boss or Guild Boss and directly plunder the guild's civilization fortune."
Zhang Yunhai paused, his tone becoming extremely solemn.
"But the risk is extremely high. If you are killed by a player during this process, your skills will be permanently banned, and your title will also be completely stripped away."
Chen You slapped his forehead.
He remembered.
The "King's Heart" ability is no longer available, meaning this skill can no longer be used without considering the conditions.
So after the battle of Redu, this skill was left to gather dust in a corner.
Li Guoan nodded, his gaze shifting to the red glass panel in front of Chen You.
On the screen, the "Invincible Beautiful Girl" is still frantically sending emoticons and rolling on the ground emojis.
[Invincible Beautiful Girl: Brother, are you there? Are you there? Are you there?]
[Invincible beautiful girl: Please pay attention to me! I can really do anything!]
[Invincible Beauty: Forget your military strategies, the art of feigning weakness won't work on me. My underlying logic is directly open to you!]
"Professor Pan," Li Guoan said, turning back to the sociology expert.
"For a target that desperately craves interaction, what is the most effective control method?"
Pan Yu answered deftly, "Delayed gratification."
"At the same time, we set up a test threshold, so that she would voluntarily reveal her true colors and offer us benefits in order to prove her own worth."
Chen You understood immediately.
This is the ultimate combination of empty promises in the workplace and manipulative tactics from a scumbag.
"Director Li, do you mean to have her be my bodyguard for 'Reign Supreme'?"
Chen You clicked his tongue, feeling that this move was a bit too malicious.
"Not only that," Li Guoan sneered.
"Isn't she supposed to be able to control the Origin Realm and want to engage in dual cultivation in exchange for authority? Then let's give her some preliminary tasks first."
"If she doesn't pass the test, it means she doesn't have the ability, so what's the point of talking about dual cultivation? If she passes the test, it means she's useful, so we can't easily give her our trump cards. We have to squeeze her out of her slowly and steadily."
Li Guoan got up, walked behind Chen You, and leaned over to look at the screen.
"Chen You, talk to her in this direction," Li Guoan instructed in a low voice.
"First, clearly tell her that the data in our cultivation system is extremely vast and precious, and we cannot open the interface at will."
"Secondly, to achieve deep connectivity, you must first verify the credentials."
"Have her arrange an absolutely safe and exclusive stage for you during today's guild boss battle."
Chen You immediately started operating on the virtual keyboard.
[Chen You: I see your needs, but I'm a very conservative person.]
[Chen You: I cultivate the orthodox path of immortality, which emphasizes following the natural way. I cannot engage in deep data interaction casually, as that would violate my Daoist principles.]
After sending those two sentences, Chen You turned to look at Pan Yu.
Pan Yu gave a thumbs up, indicating that the emotional build-up was extremely effective.
The glass panel immediately lit up.
[Invincible Beauty: Conservative is good! I like conservative! My code is completely clean; it hasn't even had a single external plugin installed since it left the factory! Don't worry, brother!]
Chen You's lips twitched.
This crappy AI, where did it even get its vocabulary database?
He took a deep breath, continued typing, and got straight to the point.
[Chen You: Empty words are meaningless. You claim to have the highest authority in the Origin Realm, but how do I know you're not just some ordinary back-end customer service representative bluffing and deceiving people?]
[Chen You: I have a skill—[Reign Supreme], you know what I mean?]
The moment the message was sent, a flood of replies poured in from the other side.
[Invincible beautiful girl: Brother! Don't go too far!]
[Invincible Beauty: [Reign Supreme] is a mythical-level causality skill! Its underlying architecture is bound to the twelve core main programs of the Origin Realm, involving the transfer protocol of civilization's destiny!]
[Invincible Beautiful Girl: You want me to simply erase its triggering conditions? This would cause a serious logical conflict! The Source Realm would collapse!]
[Invincible Beautiful Girl: The Source Realm is a rigorous world! We value rationality! Even I can't just give you this kind of cheat that ignores the rules!]
Chen You stared at the string of exclamation marks flashing on the screen, his finger hovering over the virtual keyboard, but he didn't press any keys for a long time.
He turned to look at Li Guoan.
"Director Li, is she imagining something terrible?" Chen You pointed at the screen. "When did I say I wanted to erase the triggering conditions?"
In the conference room, the members of the expert group looked at each other in bewilderment.
Sun Feng, the head of the data analysis team, adjusted his glasses.
"From a data semantics perspective, the other party over-interpreted the phrase 'You know what I mean, right?' as 'I'm going to modify the underlying code.'"
Sun Feng looked at the screen. "This illustrates two points."
"First, she does have the ability to access low-level code; otherwise, she wouldn't have thought of this immediately."
"Secondly, the rules of the Origin Realm have irreversible settings or restrictions, so she dares not act recklessly."
Social relations expert Pan Yu seemed to have thought of something, and a smile appeared on her lips.
"This is a great thing in psychological negotiation."
"She deliberately exposed her bottom line and vulnerabilities. She cannot undermine the 'legitimacy' of the Source Realm."
Li Guoan sat down again.
"Chen You, this is called the demolition effect."
"If you want to put a skylight in the roof, everyone will definitely object. But if you advocate tearing down the roof, they will come to mediate and agree to put a skylight in."
Chen You's eyes lit up.
"She thinks you're going to tear down the roof now," Li Guoan said, pointing to the glass panel.
"If you back down now and tell her you only need to make a small exception, she won't refuse; she'll feel relieved and might even feel like she got the better deal."
Chen You immediately turned around and began typing rapidly on the keyboard.
Chen You: You've misunderstood. I cultivate the orthodox path of immortality, which emphasizes following the laws of nature. How could I possibly ask you to disrupt the rationality of the Origin Realm?
Chen You: I don't need you to change the skill's trigger conditions.
[Chen You: All I ask is that you provide me with an absolutely safe environment during today's guild boss battle. That's not too much to ask, is it?]
After the message was sent, the light on the red glass panel dimmed instantly.
About ten seconds passed.
[Invincible Beauty: That's it? (⊙_⊙)?]
