Chapter 332: Heading to the Appointment_1

The so-called "Cyborg" is a humanoid life form made up of purple electricity, and the reason everyone was surprised wasn't because they were intimidated by its appearance.

It was because the other party knew about Wallfacers, which suddenly made Jiang Yu seem sacred.

After all, the "Dark Forest" had been disconnected from the outside world for over three centuries, yet the other party knew about the existence of Wallfacers, which instantly gave Wallfacers a mythic quality.

Jiang Yu pinched his chin, watching the footage captured by the robot.

Through the camera, one could see that the robot was next to the core area, attempting to open the doors along both sides of the corridor.

However, the closer it got to the core area, the fewer rooms it could open.

Just then, one side suddenly lit up, the core area was opened.

A purple electrical humanoid appeared at the doorway, followed by a signal received by the robot, and the footage ended there.

The basic meaning of the signal was: Human devices are hardly capable of carrying the signal I emit, please Wallfacer Jiang Yu come and have a face-to-face conversation with me. I don't have much time left, he should make his decision to meet or not quickly.

Clearly, the robot short-circuited because it transmitted this signal.

Wu Zheng reported, "Both neutrino signal transmitters have burned out, but the opponent timed it very well.

"After our command center received the signal, it had weakened a great deal, so the final receiving device wasn't damaged.

"Everything along the signal's path, however, was destroyed!"

Jiang Yu asked, "What kind of signal was it?"

"Neutrino signal!" a staff member explained: "But the strength of the signal was truly beyond our expectations, we've always assumed that neutrino signals had such a threshold.

"Who would have thought such small mass neutrinos could unleash such a force!

"This could totally be used as a weapon!"

Jiang Yu said with a wry smile, "It's just the difference between a strong robber in his prime and a baby tumbling to the ground crying.

"Hmm, that's not quite the right way to put it, it should be an old robber!"

Wu Zheng and the others were all looking at Jiang Yu, not because his analogy was so awkward, but because everyone was curious about whether he would go or not.

Jiang Yu pondered for a moment: "Of course I'm going, but some protective measures need to be taken. Wear a space suit to go! And do not enter the core area when meeting!"

Then he asked, "Who is willing to go with me?"

The command room was filled with a chorus of "I will" and "me."

Jiang Yu said to Wu Zheng with a smile, "At your age, forget it. Number Three and Zhao Yang will go with me, and send a few robots responsible for recording. As long as they don't directly transmit signals, they should not break down."

Those not chosen were a little disappointed, but everyone knew this was the most reasonable arrangement—if there was an accident in the "Dark Forest," only the three of them were at risk.

Jiang Yu also instructed, "If we are attacked, please remain calm.

"And always respect the technology of the 'Dark Forest'; don't give up on researching the 'Dark Forest' just because someone sacrificed or hold prejudice against the study of the 'Dark Forest'."

This made everyone suddenly realize that this contact was actually very dangerous, because it was still unknown whether the "Dark Forest" harbored hostile intentions toward Humanity.

But according to the Dark Forest Law, the chances of hostility were high.

Immediately, someone suggested impersonating a Wallfacer to enter the "Dark Forest"; Wallfacers were too important to them.

Jiang Yu, however, laughed, "If he knows about Wallfacers, he must surely know detailed information about them; we can't deceive the 'Dark Forest' with a pretense."

He paused, then continued, "To get more information, this risk is worth taking. Don't worry, from my observation, the other party can evidently only move in the core area of the 'Dark Forest'."

Seeing that Jiang Yu had made up his mind, they stopped persuading him and began to prepare.

When there was no one around Jiang Yu, Number Three asked in a low voice, "I am not as smart as Thirty-Six and Jiang Shiliu, so please give me a straight answer, are you a Black Cuboid Person?"

Jiang Yu smiled and asked, "What if I am?"

"For the sake of Humanity, I will not allow you to enter the 'Dark Forest'!" declared Number Three with a determined face: "Please don't take offense, I will take some drastic measures."

Jiang Yu patted his shoulder: "It's good that you haven't been alongside me for so long in vain, this awareness is very good."

Then he said seriously, "Bullshit Black Cuboid People! To start, it was just to cover for Bai Xiao and the others, so I admitted to it.

"Now, even if the Trisolarans ask me, I would still say: I belong to Humanity."

Number Three breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good to hear."

Jiang Yu joked, "Aren't you afraid that what I just told you was a lie to deceive you?"

"I've gotten used to trusting your judgment," Number Three laughed: "If you are deceiving me, then I accept that."

Having been with Jiang Yu for so many years, Number Three could still differentiate whether Jiang Yu was telling the truth or lying.

Jiang Yu smiled: "The good guys are all you."

The staff first repaired the two neutrino signal transmitters, ensuring signal communication inside and outside of the "Dark Forest."

They also prepared a small energy-filled spaceship for Jiang Yu and others. Jiang Yu, along with Number Three and the science advisor from the command room, Zhao Yang, boarded the spaceship to enter the interior of the "Dark Forest."

Only by entering the "Dark Forest" could they feel how wide the internal passages were, a perspective difficult to experience through a robot's vision.

Unfortunately, it was too dark; if the corridor had been brightly lit, it would have been truly spectacular.

The spaceship was equipped with a navigation system, and the many turns soon had Jiang Yu rather confused; he could only know from the screen's map that he was now delving deep into the "Dark Forest."

After about fifteen or sixteen minutes, a motionless robot appeared in the corridor ahead.

Beyond that was a wall, seemingly a dead end, but according to the map, the core area of the "Dark Forest" was on the other side of the wall.

A few robots went ahead of the spaceship, and after checking the motionless robot, they quickly reported: Its main system was burnt out.

Jiang Yu had the robots follow behind them, shooting the upcoming scene from various angles.

The three of them arrived at the wall and were suddenly a bit perplexed about what to do next. Knock on the door?

Right then, the wall suddenly opened a square hole about three meters on each side.

The purple electrical humanoid appeared again before them, and Jiang Yu stepped forward, "I've come for our appointment."

As he spoke, he carefully surveyed the interior of the core area.

Suddenly, a cube the size of a fingertip came flying out from inside, aiming precisely for Jiang Yu to catch in his hand.

The moment he caught the cube, a voice appeared in Jiang Yu's mind: Wallfacer, let's have a private talk first, because there are too many secrets on you, I even see the ripples of time and the cosmic strings in you.
