CHAPTER 506: CHAPTER 363 WORLD MECHANISM ANALYSIS_1

Max ate meat and drank wine with practiced ease, as if he had frequented street stalls for many years. He truly could play the noble when needed or mingle with common folk, seamlessly blending into any environment.

"During our time, five ’Contraries’ emerged simultaneously. When we realized we were about to be expelled by the world’s mechanism, we decided to invade this world and eliminate the ’Executioners’ before they could come for us.

"But we failed.

"The mechanism of the world isn’t so easily shattered; your chances of success are virtually zero.

"As a failed ’Contrary,’ I have no good advice for you. What I can do is try my best to cooperate with you.

"Having no regrets is enough for me."

It seemed that in his confrontation with the "Executioners," Max had been thoroughly humbled. He was helping Yan Xing not because he believed Yan Xing could ultimately escape fate, but simply for his own last bit of defiance.

After some contemplation, Yan Xing decided to be even more candid with Max.

The foundation of their trust was sound; to deepen it further, one side had to take the initiative.

There might be risks involved, but this step had to be taken.

Yan Xing said to Max, "You think I’ve gained godly authority... but that’s actually not the case..."

Max finally stopped eating and drinking. He looked at Yan Xing, then at Chui Chui. "That’s impossible... Without godly authority, there’s no way you could create this creature. I can sense it; her life has been granted by godly authority."

Yan Xing said to Chui Chui, "This is a specialized matter; perhaps you can explain it to Max."

Chui Chui told Max, "Greetings, Mr. Max. My name is Chui Chui, and my true form is a Heart Demon that exists in a state of void.

"The power that created this body didn’t come from my Master but was harnessed using a Nine-Headed Dragon we found.

"It should be like you, a ’Contrary’ who gained godly authority, only to be sealed underground by ’Executioners’ for who knows how many years.

"We found it, studied it, and now we can harness some of the godly authority it possessed.

"However, our research on the Nine-Headed Dragon is still superficial. With your assistance, perhaps we could complete our study of the Nine-Headed Dragon more quickly."

"Mr. Yan, I’m very grateful that you’ve shared such information with me. I don’t know this Nine-Headed Dragon; it might have become a ’Contrary’ before or after my time.

"But that’s not important.

"The fact that you can use its godly authority implies it has lost control over it, but the authority itself remains... in a state between death and non-death. It’s a very strange condition.

"Is your goal to use the Nine-Headed Dragon’s godly authority?

"That’s not a very formidable force compared to the godly authority you’ll acquire in the future.

"It might even be a pathway laid by the world mechanism for you to gain godly authority."

Yan Xing couldn’t help but smile. "Everything we’ve encountered—past, present, and future—can be attributed to the world mechanism. If we approach problems by assuming everything is governed by the world mechanism, we’re essentially tying our own hands before we even start.

"What’s certain now is... the world mechanism doesn’t have subjective thoughts.

"It operates on its own rules to maintain the world’s balance.

"It appears to predict the future. However, its inability to detect ’Contraries’ in advance suggests it doesn’t truly possess foresight. Instead, it likely filters world information and, through inference based on the ’Contraries’ themselves, deduces ’Executioners’ capable of dealing with them.

"This seems very similar to the Creed Intelligence Database we’ve established."

Max looked puzzled.

Yan Xing said to Chui Chui, "These are specialized matters; please explain them to him."

Chui Chui explained to Max, "Mr. Max, by now you should understand what big data filtering is.

"In Nuta City, we’ve set up a Creed Intelligence Database, which performs indiscriminate data collection.

"Once the collected data reaches a certain volume, coupled with an intelligent server, remarkable things can happen.

"When searching for a specific keyword, the database can rapidly gather vast amounts of related information and then continue to collect data layer by layer.

"The intelligent server integrates all this information, constructing timelines and event sequences originating from the keyword.

"Along these lines, we can clearly see past events and current developments triggered by the keyword. And if a sufficient number of timelines and event sequences are interconnected, the database can make limited predictions about the future.

"The more data that is mastered, the further into the future these predictions can extend, and the higher their accuracy becomes.

"I trust this explanation is clear, Mr. Max?"

Max, having traveled the world, had some understanding of modern technology, but what Chui Chui described sounded exceedingly like science fiction.

"Predicting the future through data collection?"

Chui Chui said, "As long as there is sufficient data and a processor capable of handling that volume, predicting the future is indeed feasible.

"In fact, we are currently using the Creed Intelligence Database for event prediction. Truthfully, everyone makes predictions about the future based on the information they gather. Experience, knowledge, intellect, and the volume of information available dictate the accuracy of such foresight.

"And when this data encompasses the entire world, the world mechanism gains the ability to foresee events much further into the future."

Max finally understood. He nodded and said, "You mean the world mechanism has the capability to collect and process all data generated by the world?"
