Chapter 158. Merciless
Arc 6 : Sci-fi Rom-com Movie Nightmare
The third staff meeting of the Earthling Pursuit Plan will be held in five minutes.
The participants were still the same people as last time, Zeus, Eddie, and the elite staff.
The topic of this meeting is still the same: Why is His Majesty, the Emperor, most popular in the Sagoru stellar system, immediately deleted repeatedly?
The atmosphere of the meeting was somewhat solemn. All the participants looked at the dark golden pattern on the face of their own emperor, who was sitting at the top. No one dared to speak for the time being.
Zeus was silent for a moment and soon adjusted his mood. After all, this was not the first time the connection was cut off.
“The meeting begins.”
Zeus was already very experienced, and he didn’t need the Chief of Staff to ask him questions, and he started to recall the details of this incident directly.
Compared to the last time when connection was cut off after a brief meeting, this time has a lot of progress. At least the other party opened the software and looked at the biography compiled by Zeus himself.
Hearing this, the Chief of Staff nodded and said: “If that’s the case, it seems that your compatible partner is not very averse to the Sagoru people. This is a good start.”
Zeus said: “I find it strange that after I asked him his name, he frowned and showed an impatient expression, and finally cut off the connection. In your research, do earthlings have any taboos against asking strangers their names?”
The reason why Zeus asked this question is that the names of a certain race that has established diplomatic relations with Sagoru are generally only known by the closest people, and when they are outside, they can only be distinguished by numbers.
In addition to revising the software, the Chief of Staff has been studying the customs and culture of China on Earth. Now, he can be considered an expert on the world.
After hearing Zeus ask this question, he answered directly: “According to the data collected, people on Earth do not have such taboos as not being able to ask names. On the contrary, it is a courtesy for two strangers to exchange each other’s names when they first meet.”
Hearing this, Zeus knew that it was not because he asked for the name that annoyed the other party. He felt relieved and said: “So, the reason why he cut off the connection was because of that sentence.”
Zeus repeated what he had just heard exactly, including the tone of voice.
“It turns out to be a pay-to-win card game. I don’t have money to play it.”
During these two days, Zeus handed over all the software modification progress to the staff group, and apart from completing his daily work, he spent all his time learning about the customs of the Chinese people on Earth.
This is to avoid accidentally angering the other party during the communication, which would result in all the previous efforts being wasted.
So when he saw the name of this software was ‘Interstellar Krypton Gold Sagoru Lover’, Zeus did not think it was wrong. Now, thinking about it, it seems that it was because of the two words ‘Krypton Gold’ that it was deleted.
Zeus frowned and asked: “What do the two words ‘Krypton Gold’ mean?”
Upon hearing this, the Chief of Staff still directly put all the data on the light screen.
He explained: “The software we developed was almost all based on that very popular love game. In that game, the more money you spend on a character, the stronger your love for that character is.”
“In order to be able to quantify the other party’s feelings towards you and to help you decide when to take more appropriate actions, we also added krypton gold elements to the software.”
At this point, without further explanation, Zeus can understand why the staff added the word ‘Krypton Gold’ to the name of the software.
This is related to the racial nature of the Sagoru people, who never lie. Since there is a krypton gold element in the software, the word ‘Krypton Gold’ must be placed in the most conspicuous place. Otherwise, it is a fraud.
However, they didn’t expect that His Majesty Zeus’s partner would hate the word ‘Krypton Gold’ so much that the person even chose to cut off the connection directly.
The staff group split into two factions and began to argue. One faction suggested following the local customs and removing the word ‘Krypton Gold’ from the name, the other faction insisted that the principles of the Sagoru people could not be changed and directly deleted the ‘Krypton Gold’ element.
The meeting came to a deadlock.
At the end of the discussion, Zeus made a decision and said: “Since he doesn’t like Krypton Gold, then delete the krypton gold elements and make it a free game.”
Although the Chief of Staff feels that after removing the krypton gold element, it is impossible to quantify the other party’s degree of affection for His Majesty Zeus, which may cause some trouble in future exchanges.
But this is the only way now. He nodded and said: “Okay, after deleting it, we will put the word ‘free’ in the most conspicuous place, and I believe the other party will not disconnect again.”
The meeting ended here. Now, almost half of the seven-day deadline set by Zeus has passed, and they have very little time left.
After all, His Majesty Zeus of the Sagoru stellar system is famous for his integrity.
Since His Majesty Zeus said it would only take seven days when they left the home planet, it would not take more than a minute.
The Chief of Staff was obsessed with efficiency, and he wished he could use the aircraft machine in the starship to speed up. He was about to leave the meeting room in a hurry, but was suddenly stopped by Zeus.
“David, how is the progress of the earth environment research?”
Chief of Staff David was stunned and didn’t react. He hesitated for a moment before he began to report: “The progress is almost complete. The research team has simulated the earth’s environment and is ready to start adapting experiments immediately.”
Although Zeus was not prepared to spend too much time on Earth, judging from the plan he had drawn up, he was not prepared to go directly to Earth to look for people after adapting to the Earth’s environment in the simulation cabin.
But since they came all the way from the Sagoru stellar system to Earth, it is necessary to leave a part of adapting to the earth’s environment in the genes of the Sagoru people.
Zeus heard it and nodded: “Very good, let the research team focus on the adaptation experiment.”
David was a little confused, so he asked directly: “Your Majesty, the research team has applied to the lab to stay here for a period of time, so there’s enough time to adapt.”
Zeus just glanced at David and said nothing.
Seeing this, David stood up straight, saluted, and said loudly: “As you command!”
His Majesty Zeus, a Saguro, has always been wise. Since he asked the research team to focus on adapting experiments, there must be a reason for that.
This is not something that a small staff officer like him can question.

After Du Yan returned to the classroom, he attended two classes.
During class, he found it strange that Fan Jian, who was sitting in front of him, kept looking back at him with a guilty look.
Du Yan frowned slightly, guessing that the other party was probably harboring some dark thoughts in his mind.
At this moment, the cell phone in Du Yan’s trouser pocket vibrated slightly. He took out the phone and saw that the message on it was from an unknown number.
“Is there something wrong with your phone? Come with me if you want it fixed.”
Du Yan looked up and saw Fan Jian smiling at him.
Have problems with your phone?
Du Yan’s phone has not had any problems in the past two days. On the contrary, his old phone was a little slow at first, but after being hidden by Fan Jian, it became unusually smooth, as if it had just been bought.
Could it be that Fan Jian was talking about that strange software? Du Yan flipped through his phone and found another software he had never seen before appear on the screen.
It’s not quite right to say that he has never seen it before because both the icon and the name seem familiar. To be more precise, the icon is exactly the same, but the name has changed a little.
The name of the strange software became《Interstellar Sagoru Lover: Free Edition》.
Du Yan couldn’t understand what was going on. After the name change, the software looked more like malware, and the interval between automatic installations became shorter.
It had only been a few hours since he deleted it, and it was installed again.
Du Yan frowned, then looked up at Fan Jian and found that he had a smug and provocative expression, as if he had anticipated everything that happened on Du Yan’s phone.
Could it be that this app that can never be deleted is really the work of Fan Jian? Du Yan is a person with a slight obsessive-compulsive disorder. All the apps on his mobile phone are organized into categories, and there will definitely not be any useless apps.
So even if this app won’t cause any trouble for the time being, he still can’t stand a useless malware polluting his phone.
Du Yan made up his mind that even though he knew Fan Jian must have some conspiracy, he had to take the initiative to fall into the trap. Anyway, he now knew that these young students could not do anything to him.
After class, Du Yan walked directly to Fan Jian and said: “Let’s go.”
Fan Jian was secretly proud of himself at first, as he could avenge what happened two days ago, but when he saw Du Yan’s calm expression, he couldn’t help but feel a little scared.
No matter what, things have come to this point, and Fan Jian can not regret it.
The two of them walked all the way to the equipment room of the gymnasium.
At this point, the gymnasium has been closed, and he doesn’t know how this gang secretly got the key.
Du Yan leaned against the wall and watched Tang Liang, and a few others walk in. Then Fan Jian walked out and closed the door from the outside.
There was a person behind Tang Liang, and Du Yan was very familiar with him. It was his former roommate, Zhao Hailiang.
He raised his eyebrows and said: “Are you not scared this time?”
Zhao Hailiang was furious when he heard this. After Du Yan’s pay back in the dorm, Tang Liang called him over and gave him a good lecture, saying that he had asked Du Yan to submit a report on changing dorms instead of transferring to another school.
Zhao Hailiang told Tang Liang what happened that day but was mercilessly mocked by everyone, saying that he was frightened like this by a cowardly quail.
Later, Zhao Hailiang thought about it and realized that he was being stupid. If Du Yan really didn’t fear death and wanted to die together, why would he apply for a dormitory change?
Zhao Hailiang had never expected that Du Yan’s acting skills were so good that he completely fooled him and made a big joke in front of Tang Liang and the others.
“You brat! Today, I will make you pay for what you did that day!”
After Zhao Hailiang finished cursing, he raised his fist and tried to rush forward but was blocked by Tang Liang.
Tang Liang stopped Zhao Hailiang, raised his chin, and said: “Do you know why I asked you to come here?”
Du Yan glanced at him, speaking calmly, without any awareness of being in danger: “Aren’t you here to help me fix my phone?”
Tang Liang was stunned, then suddenly laughed, his laughter full of sarcasm: “You are indeed a bumpkin, so poor that you are willing to be beaten for a broken mobile phone worth a thousand yuan?”
Du Yan did not answer but just asked: “Can the phone be fixed?”
Tang Liang showed a regretful expression: “What a pity, your phone is ruined after being infected with the Trojan program. But as long as you get beaten up today and then apply for transfer, I’ll give you the latest model of iPhone as a reward out of pity for you.”
Du Yan frowned slightly and said: “Trojan? Not malware?”
Tang Liang was also frightened by his calm and composed appearance, and he followed Du Yan unconsciously. He asked: “What malware?”
Du Yan took out his phone, opened the app, and flipped the screen to show Tang Liang: “If you can delete this, I will be more careful later.”
Tang Liang was stunned and then realized that Du Yan looked down upon him. His face darkened, and he waved his hand and said: “Give him some color. In five minutes, I want to see him kneel down and call me dad.”
Five minutes later.
“Dad!”
Tang Liang and the people behind him all knelt before Du Yan and begged for mercy.
The group of people looked pale, and it was not clear where they were injured. However, they were all holding their stomachs and trembling with pain all over their bodies. They no longer had the will to resist.
Du Yan still had that cold look on his face. He said: “You don’t have to call me dad. I just want you to delete this app completely.”
Tang Liang took Du Yan’s phone and looked at it, then said in confusion: “What kind of software is this? I didn’t install it. I just asked someone to put a Trojan in your phone…”
Du Yan said: “If it wasn’t a Trojan program you installed, how come this app can’t be deleted?”
In order to demonstrate to Tang Liang whether this malware was related to the Trojan program, Du Yan directly raised his hand and deleted the strange app.
Clean, sharp, and merciless.
********************************
The author has something to say: I saw a little angel asking why we don’t just have real-life contact. Actually, I explained it earlier, that is, entering an unknown planet requires adapting to the environment. Otherwise, problems are likely to occur. This setting reminded me of a science fiction movie I watched, where aliens invaded the earth and were ultimately defeated by the bacteria and viruses on the earth.
