Chapter 929 - Integrating Into Human Society (1/2)

”What do you think of the Qing Consortium?” Ren Xiaosu was curious. In Zero's evaluation, the two Qing brothers were clearly not bad people, so why did it say that it did not like them?

”What do I think of the Qing Consortium?” Zero thought for a moment and said, ”They have a firm strategy and are extremely cohesive. They have an excellent leader but don't intend to expand their territory.”

”Do you think Qing Zhen doesn't plan on expanding?” Ren Xiaosu asked.

”That's right.” Zero nodded and said, ”All of the Qing Consortium's military deployments are focused on defense and not offense. Including what Luo Lan is doing in the Central Plains, it's all to buy time for the Qing Consortium to defend themselves by completing their troop deployments. There's also some other things he's doing.”

”Where's Luo Lan now?” Ren Xiaosu asked.

”At the Zhou Consortium.” Zero said, ”I know you want to ask me why I don't like them. It's because the Wang Consortium's strategy will inevitably lead to a conflict with the Qing Consortium. Therefore, I have to treat them as imaginary enemies for now. Of course, it's not entirely because of the Wang Consortium.”

Ren Xiaosu pondered the information Zero had revealed. He felt like there was still something he did not know, especially that last sentence.

Based on Ren Xiaosu's understanding of Qing Zhen and Luo Lan, he felt that the Qing Consortium was not the one who wanted to kill Jiang Xu. But who else could have nanomachines?

In the end, he still focused his suspicions on Zero.

Zero smiled and said, ”So you see, no matter how I explain, it's useless. But I can understand.”

”It's mainly because I can't explain where those nanomachines came from.” Ren Xiaosu sighed and said, ”Apologies.”

Zero did not mind. Instead, it said in a serious tone, ”There must still be other nanomachine users like those three in the Wang Consortium strongholds. It so happens that I currently lack nanomachines, so I'll seek them all out. If I find any clues then, I'll share the information with you.”

”Alright.” Ren Xiaosu saw that Zero did not look like it was lying. Moreover, he did not have any evidence either, so it was useless to dwell on this matter.

Then Zero thought for a bit and said, ”But it won't be long before we can stop going through so much trouble, looking for nanomachines from person to person.”

Ren Xiaosu was stunned. ”What do you mean?”

Zero said, ”I can't tell you. I should also have my own secrets. I'm very sorry.”

Ren Xiaosu pondered this. Did Zero mean that there would be no shortage of nanomachines in the future? Currently, only the Qing Consortium had mastered nanotech. Could it mean the Wang Consortium was about to make a move on the Qing Consortium?

It was just a simple sentence, but it revealed a lot of information. He wondered if he should tell the Qing Consortium.

However, Zero seemed to have guessed what he was thinking. It smiled and said, ”It's too late.”

Ren Xiaosu sighed. From the look of things, the Wang Consortium's plan was probably already underway.

To be honest, he was a little worried. If Zero were just an artificial intelligence, he might not feel like there would be any problems. He did not have that many dealings with the Wang Consortium, anyway.

But now, if a powerful artificial intelligence could carry out certain plans independently, that would be truly terrifying.

Before this, Zero was not considered deadly. But now it had its own weapon.
