Chapter 72 United Nations_1

"Director Cao, do you know where we're going?" Logic asked after settling down.

Although Cao Ge knew, he was also completely confused at the moment, so he simply shook his head.

"I don't know either. I was suddenly brought here by Officer Shi. He didn't tell me what we're going to do, just said there's something I need to assist with from above," Cao Ge said.

"So you just experienced..." Logic said excitedly.

"Brother Logic, Brother Cao's situation isn't the same as yours," Da Shi interjected before Logic could finish.

"Brother Cao, didn't you want to ask me what I meant by 'you're different from them'?"

"Now I can tell you."

"Brother Cao, you don't know, yesterday, during my way to pick up Brother Logic, do you know what happened? Just among the police, we lost eight, and the roughly estimated number of casualties among the public reached four thousand two hundred seventy-three."

"All those people died because of the assassination attempt on Professor Luo?"

"Mhm."

"In recent days, I don't know what got into those ETO maniacs, but they started assassinating Professor Luo on a large scale," Da Shi said.

"Assassinate me?"

"Why?" Logic asked, completely bewildered.

It was only now that he understood who the group that attempted to assassinate him yesterday was.

"I don't know," Da Shi shook his head.

"Brother Cao, now you know why I said that sentence, right?"

Cao Ge nodded to show he understood.

"On the way here to get you, it was as peaceful as a tour. At first, when they told me there was no need to bring too many people, I didn't believe them, but now I do. You really are different from Professor Luo."

"Nonsense, of course, it's different," Cao Ge thought to himself.

The reason Logic was being assassinated was because the Trisolarans feared he might figure out the Dark Forest Law.

He wasn't Logic; of course, the Trisolarans wouldn't directly assassinate him.

"Maybe they don't think I'm important," Cao Ge mumbled vaguely and then changed the subject.

Although he wasn't told what the trip was for, Cao Ge roughly guessed that it was probably to attend the Wallfacer conference.

After all, he still caught the attention of the Trisolarans, so the United Nations might have given him the opportunity to sit in and listen to the Wallfacer plans.

Having figured it out, Cao Ge stretched out his hand towards Da Shi and asked, "Team Leader Shi, is there anything to eat on the plane? I'm starving."

"There is, of course, there is. This high-class plane definitely has food, and it's all top-notch," Da Shi regained his excitement when it came to eating, and he called the steward over.

He ordered all the delicacies on the plane, even opening a bottle of '82 Lafite, justifying it by saying it was on the company's dime, so it was a waste not to indulge.

For Cao Ge, the wine was secondary; he didn't drink much, but he was indeed hungry.

He ordered two steaks and a portion of pork chop rice, had a hearty meal, and thoroughly made up for the suffering he endured during his space traverse.

Half an hour later, all three were full and content.

"Let's all rest up. We'll still need to stay on this plane overnight, and as soon as we land tomorrow morning, we have to work. Now's the perfect time to rest and prepare," Da Shi said while wiping his mouth with a napkin, then looked at the three of them.

After speaking, Da Shi leaned back, closed his eyes, and went to sleep, since it was a private jet, he could sleep lying down.

Da Shi hadn't slept for a day and a night because he was picking up Logic and Cao Ge, and he had to get up early for work tomorrow. Plus, he was really sleepy, so he fell asleep.

Seeing Da Shi asleep, Cao Ge and Logic exchanged a glance, then each went about their own business.

Logic took out his briefcase and continued writing his novel.

Cao Ge closed his eyes and began to study the system.

He still had one more opportunity to enhance himself that he hadn't used; it had been utterly unnecessary in the interstellar traversal world last time.

But now he needed to carefully consider which technology tree to light up.

Savior System.

Host: Cao Ge

Skills: Computer Science Lv1 (60/100) Physics Lv0 (40/100), Free Combat Lv1 (30/100) Shooting Lv0 (60/100)

Functions: Traverse, Enhance

The host's current spacetime: Three-Body

Ultimate Goal: To change the fate of Earth's humanity.

Replica Worlds: Deep Space Amnesia, Interstellar Traverse.

Item: A small universe.

Cao Ge took a moment to look over his current information and then fell into thought.

Having obtained the small universe from exploring the supercube, Cao Ge didn't immediately open it because the time wasn't right yet.

Although he didn't know what this small universe looked like, he thought it should be similar to the one Yun Tianming gifted to Cheng Xin, a paradise-like universe.

This could be left for exploration later when he was alone; what he needed to think about now was where to apply the enhancement.

After much deliberation, Cao Ge finally decided to enhance his Computer Science skill.

Since he didn't need Physics for the time being, it was better to max out his Computer Science skill first.

After the enhancement, new information was poured into his brain, including many new insights into computer science, and Cao Ge felt immensely benefited.

............

Time flew quickly, and ten hours passed in a flash.

Cao Ge and the others' airplane landed at New York Airport.

After landing, they immediately boarded a limousine and, protected by a convoy of over a dozen vehicles, headed straight for the United Nations.

About an hour later, they arrived at the underground parking lot of the United Nations Building and then proceeded directly into the building, shielded by a phalanx of bodyguards.

Throughout the entire process, Cao Ge purposefully kept his distance from Logic.

Because he felt that it was safer to be further away from Logic.

Soon, they arrived at the United Nations Conference Hall, which was already filled with people by then,

When Cao Ge and Logic took their seats, the meeting officially commenced.

As Cao Ge had guessed, this meeting was the Wallfacer Conference, where they announced the Walls Plan and the list of Wallfacers.

To Cao Ge's surprise, his name was on the list; he had become the fifth Wallfacer.

After the Wallfacer Conference ended, a shocked Cao Ge sought out Chairman Sai to ask why.

Chairman Sai gave a ludicrous reason: The Trisolarans' attention towards him was unusually high.

The Planetary Defense Council had gathered this information from intercepted ETO emails.

The Trisolarans had never shown such curiosity for a human as they had for Cao Ge.

This piqued the interest of governments worldwide—they too wanted to know what about Cao Ge had garnered such curiosity from the Trisolarans.

Based on this, the United Nations decided to confer upon Cao Ge the status of a Wallfacer.

Three hours later, Cao Ge walked out of the United Nations Building with the identity of a Wallfacer.

He had never thought of becoming a Wallfacer, but unwittingly he had achieved this status.
