Chapter 1854: Chapter 619: The Transia People Are Up to No Good

Murphy left.

But Little Wei Ming wore a pained expression; earlier, because she had participated in the “deception” against Sir Morphy, her favorability with him had decreased as a Descendant of Morphy.

This made Little Wei Ming very uncomfortable, so after Murphy left, she pounced on Meng HaHa, tickling her fiercely, forcing Meng HaHa to make a “military vow” to quickly bring out a finished product to restore her perilous image in Sir Morphy’s eyes.

“Relax, don’t worry, this is easy to make.”

Meng HaHa comforted the pouting Little Wei Ming, saying:

“I have ready-made blueprints there; I’ll pick one that’s most suitable for the Transylvania version of a wireless radio device, perhaps a walkie-talkie would be appropriate if it’s to be used in the military field.

We do indeed need our own secure communication network. Currently, the Calculating Pearl has established the most basic spiritual communication on this continent, but as I said earlier, it’s entirely controlled by the Half-body Men.

For those who don’t understand engineering, this thing is an inexplicable black box.

I suspect that the reason the Half-body Men distribute the Calculating Pearl is likely due to some dark consideration of controlling the intelligence network across the continent in the future.

The more widespread this thing becomes, the more exaggerated the Half-body Men’s ability to obtain information becomes.

In fact, I highly doubt that Sulk Flywheel, despite his claims of having nothing to do with the Half-body Men, received support from the Steam Lord Council behind his actions of selling the Calculating Pearl to other powers.

Click, click, although this continent seems chaotic, on deeper investigation, it’s not hard to see there are indeed undercurrents surging beneath.”

“I don’t care, anyway!”

Little Wei Ming hadn’t thought about it so much; she crossed her arms and floated up, shouting:

“I’m a die-hard fan of Sir Morphy, anyone who opposes him gets their head blown off with a hammer from me! Alas, poor Worm Terranova didn’t get a slot this time; it’s really pitiful, but she surely says she’ll be in next time she enters the game.

Keep busy here, I have to go persuade my parents.”

The little dwarf pushed open the door, beckoning to Mengha:

“Maybe in the next version my parents will come to join me; don’t you have any friends to pull in and play with?”

“Having you guys is enough.”

Mengha waved and said:

“I don’t need so many friends; I can be good without them, besides, we already have enough people in here.”

“What?”

“Nothing, go have fun, remember there’s a gathering at East Mountain Residence tonight; look, I tricked some funds, tonight’s feast is on me!”

“Yay.”

Murphy actually hadn’t gone far.

He was hiding in the shadow of the city’s commercial district, looking at the Silver Moon Pride Team’s base. Mengha’s real identity was no secret to him, but with so many people lurking around now, it wasn’t necessary to keep a special eye on this occasionally offbeat physicist.

But something Meng HaHa said just reminded Murphy.

She mentioned that all secrets of the Calculating Pearl are controlled by the Half-body Men, which in itself is a terrifying situation. Murphy had been using this system without even noticing this aspect, and though his Calculating Pearl was cracked by Flywheel, Flywheel wasn’t the only guy among the Half-body Men studying the Calculating Pearl.

It’s 100% safe in Transylvania, but once it enters Charldo Harbor, problems could arise quickly, and monitoring would be the best-case scenario.

Let’s not forget, the Circle Tower also participated in the upgrade and development of the Calculating Pearl. With the current situation of a large amount of related information circulating within the Calculating Pearl in Transylvania, should Murphy face off against the Circle Tower, information leakage alone could pose a serious problem.

Preparations must be made early!

Mengha’s radio communication is just one part of it.

From a security standpoint, Murphy thought he should probably delve deep into Creator Technology. Surely within that level of world-altering high-tech, it’s impossible not to have a communication system; the quantum communication on his Wanderer’s gear has proven that the creator’s legacy definitively includes similar things.

Perhaps he should visit the Origin Land after the Black Disaster to bring a comprehensive technological upgrade to the player system and Transylvania.

But steps have to be taken one at a time, meals have to be eaten one bite at a time; at least at the time of the Black Disaster, he still had to rely on the upgraded version of the Calculating Pearl about to be produced by Old Flywheel to maintain the player system.

Moreover, this thing is indeed useful, a creation researched by the “locals”, it’s evidently better suited to the life constitution of this era. Once something better comes along, releasing this to the public might even spark a “productivity revolution”.

There’s also the matter of the “Midnight’s Children” legion he wanted to establish before.

Currently, his acknowledged progeny among the players are just Little Wei Ming and Pantsless Demon Afeng; he still needs to find some more “steadfast” individuals to fill this organization.

Though it’s uncertain what he plans to do with this organization in the future, preparedness seems to be a good virtue.

So next, he should look around among the players again.

Happy Stick might be a good target; this guy has the capability and ambition, and more importantly, right now, like Dust Beater and Niu Niu, he “has someone in his heart”.

“Swish”

Murphy spread his wings, soaring quickly to hover in mid-air at the edge of the city on the Half-body Man Airship, intending to “inspect” this large vehicle ranked alongside the Half-body Men’s steam train as an “engineering miracle”.
