Chapter 589 Error

In the meeting room, Sun Jack's conversation continued. "We still need to upgrade the Liberation Theology doctrine to 2.0, and during the process, make timely changes based on the specific situation."

Delete, the priest beside him, glanced at Sun Jack and nodded firmly. "No problem, leave it to us."

Staring at the various data analyses on the system interface, Sun Jack had unconsciously finished his cigarette. He stuffed the butt into the overflowing ashtray before looking at everyone present.

"Ladies and gentlemen, no matter how many calculations we've done and how high the success rate may be, it's all from data simulations. We don't know what the outcome will be, but we cannot be afraid of failure."

"Even if this path fails, at worst, we'll switch to another. As long as we keep going, we'll eventually find our own way."

Compared to before, Sun Jack was prepared for failure, but he would not give up; he would keep persevering.

"Alright, since we've decided, let's disband," Sun Jack declared, and finally, the closed room began to ventilate.

With the curtains rising, the neon lights of Metropolis poured in.

Sun Jack rubbed his neck as he stood up, feeling as though his entire body stank.

Yet despite this, his mood had improved considerably from before; at least now he had a direction to try, no longer feeling so desperate. "Tapai, is there any food? I'm hungry."

"Can't you eat yourself? What do you need food for?" Tapai said, though, in the end, he started to serve up a meal.

Sun Jack turned off his hunger blocker and, feeling ravenously hungry, he started wolfing down the four dishes and one soup in front of him.

"According to my calculations, if the experimental area is just Metropolis, the success rate is very high, but if we expand to the entire Utopia Federation, it's probably a different story," Tapai spoke to Sun Jack.

"I know, let's take it one step at a time. By the way, are Abu and his brother still around?"

"Yeah, what's up? Linda Linda and AA have been continuously buying and selling their shares, stubbornly holding onto them and preventing them from leaving."

After thinking for a while, Sun Jack opened his mouth and said, "Call them over for me, just call Abu. Steelheart listens to his brother."

"Ok, when she arrives, there's no need to be nice to her. Besides the Utopia Federation, they have nowhere else to go."

Half an hour later, after Sun Jack had taken a shower and changed his clothes, he saw Abu leaning against the door.

"What are you doing standing at the door? Come in," Sun Jack said, sitting down on the sofa and patting the space beside him.

"What's up? Is your hyperthyroidism cured?" Abu said half mockingly.

"Yeah, it's cured," Sun Jack waved to Abu.

After Abu sat down next to him, Sun Jack spoke, "I wronged you and your brother before, that incident wasn't your doing."

"If you're looking to apologize, show some sincerity."

"What sort of sincerity do you want?"

"F*ck me."

"I'm not in the mood." Sun Jack stroked Abu's soft red fur as he spoke.

Abu stood up, came in front of Sun Jack with arms crossed, and lifted her right foot onto Sun Jack's thigh. "Sun Jack, you're so selfish, you know that? You can't be so selfish that you think others aren't selfish too. I know you have noble thoughts, but that's human nature; you can't change it."

"Right, you're not wrong. Now my enemy is no longer a single enemy. Solving one person does no good; I must think about the problem from a broader perspective." Sun Jack said, reaching out to touch Abu's fiery red animal leg at the hock.

Abu's body softened, and she sat directly in Sun Jack's lap. "With the bond of life and death we share, can I really stand against you? Stop spending all your time with that junk robot. If you really wanna pleasure me, isn't everything mine also yours? Jack, how about I become your woman?"

Just as Abu's pink fox nose was getting closer to Sun Jack's face, they both suddenly turned to look at the door, where the Poet was sneakily peeking around.

"Don't get me wrong, eh, I didn't mean to watch. Jack, I'm here to tell you, some guy says he's got urgent business with you."

"Who is it? Bring him in." Sun Jack pushed Abu away with a sulky face, and directly commanded, "We'll talk next time, stop harboring improper thoughts all day long. I've got a big move coming up, let your people coordinate with me."

After Abu left, the Poet brought in someone familiar, none other than Father Sun Jieke from Detroit.

"Fuck! You're not dead?" Sun Jack greeted him with a shocked face. "If you're still alive, then why didn't you come to me?"

Hearing this, Father Sun Jieke turned his head away with a hint of reluctance. "I didn't have the face to see you. Detroit should have been a big help to you, but I couldn't keep it safe."

"You can't blame yourself for that, can you? FFP took action against Detroit, you couldn't defend it with just one city." Sun Jack said with a sigh patting the other's shoulder.

"It's good that you're not dead; that's at least a piece of good news. By the way, how's your wife?"

"His wife is fine, she's pregnant," the Poet interjected.

But at this moment, Father Sun Jieke suddenly looked up, eyes reddening as he looked at Sun Jack. "Seeing your success, I originally didn't want to show up, I just wanted to live my quiet life. But knowing that you wanted to replicate the way of Detroit, I had to step forward and tell you, this method won't work!"

"What?!" Sun Jack jolted.

"It won't work! Before FFP acted against Detroit, capital had already corrupted the interior of Liberation Theology; even religion couldn't escape."

Father Sun Jieke said as he sent over all his past records.

"I tried to stop it, but it was futile. The more vehement my response, the more it affected stability. Even if everyone from top to bottom was a follower of Liberation Theology, they still couldn't withstand the corruption of capital."

"In order to make Detroit a force that could help you at a critical moment, I could only stabilize as much as possible with the Pope."

"But... I never imagined FFP would use capital to buy off the Pope! They destroyed the whole of Detroit!"

This blow left Sun Jack somewhat bewildered. The solution so many people had chosen had already been tried and proven unworkable?

But after taking a deep breath, he opened the list of all plans again and set his sights on the first one. "If that's true... then we're left with no choice but to take the hard approach!"

Sun Jack understood that using this iron-fisted plan would result in a lot of deaths, but it seemed to be the only path left to him.

His hand trembled, clearly hesitant, but he could not just watch as the Utopia Federation he created became the new Holy Grail.

Just then, the Poet, curious, leaned over from the side, and with a light touch of his hand, the entire plan unfolded on the system interface.

After a quick glance, the Poet spoke cheerfully to Sun Jack: "Aww, come on~! That won't work~! I've tried it before. If you do this, people will say you've got an AI Crisis~~."
