Chapter 95: Random Shield
“The focus is on those who were temporarily detained by patrols during the three-plus days of global alert.
If, I mean if, if there really is a human force on Earth that is affiliated with the Moon God, and the previous information delivery and "poisoning" of the Earth's atmosphere were all done by them, then... the only way to catch them is to look for them among those imprisoned.
If it can't be found here, then the investigation teams will have no chance of finding it."
"oh?"
The decision-makers looked at Zhou Cheng with confusion again: "What is the basis for your judgment? And, can you explain your actions to us now?"
Zhou Cheng nodded: "It's OK now."
"Okay, go ahead."
Zhou Cheng organized his words and said slowly, "First of all, let's assume that this organization composed of humans does exist. Then...why haven't we found them in the past few decades, even in the peak era when military power and surveillance facilities were the most complete?
Are their whereabouts really so secretive that they can survive in the human world for decades without us being able to catch any trace of them?
Not to mention finding them, we haven't even found any trace of their existence.
This is unreasonable.”
The decision makers were stunned for a moment, and then fell into deep thought.
They felt that what Zhou Cheng said made sense.
No matter how advanced the Moon Goddess's technology is, it is impossible for a force composed of humans to be so secretive.
“I’ve thought about this before, but to no avail.
It wasn't until later, when the Moon Goddess demonstrated the ability to 'predict the future', that I got an explanation.
After all, if a being can even predict the future, then they must be able to perfectly avoid all risks of being discovered. In this case, it would be reasonable for them not to be discovered by us.
Not long ago, we confirmed that Luna does not actually have the ability to predict the future, but can only predict probabilities.
But even if we can only predict the probability, it is still reasonable and can be done for decades without us noticing any clues.
"Since the Moon Goddess can predict probabilities, then... if they've revealed their weakness this time, allowing us to exploit a tiny flaw and obtain a dozen or even more information carriers, and gain the ability to truly threaten the Moon Goddess or the organization affiliated with it through these numerous information carriers... do you think they'll use this ability to predict probabilities?"
The first decision maker thought for a moment, and then his pupils suddenly contracted.
"Yes, that's right. As long as they don't want to be exposed, they will definitely use this ability. And once they use this ability, there is a high probability that no matter how much investigative resources we put in, we will not be able to find any trace of them.
Because they can use this ability to predict in advance which vulnerabilities are more likely to lead to exposure, and thus eliminate these vulnerabilities in advance."
The first decision maker murmured, and a hint of heaviness gradually appeared in his eyes.
"Predicting probability... this ability, huh, this ability...
As long as the Moon God still has this ability, then no matter how many breakthroughs we make, we will never be able to truly capture them..."
Zhou Cheng shook his head and denied his guess: "No, we still have a chance.
Since the ability of the Moon Goddess is not to predict the future but only to predict probabilities, and since the Moon Goddess can be understood by us and does not violate our laws of physics, then this prediction of probability is also understandable to us.
How do we predict the probability of something happening in the future? It's simple: collect enough parameters, build a corresponding model, and invest enough computing power.
The more parameters there are, the more accurate the model is, the greater the computing power is, and the more accurate the probability prediction is.
Of course, there are still many limitations to what we can do. We also have reason to believe that the Moon Gods have much more advanced technology than we do, and they can make predictions that are much more accurate than ours.
But since Luna is not beyond the limits of physical theory, his pattern of predicted probabilities must be fundamentally the same as ours.
We've confirmed that the Moon Gods' basic model for predicting probabilities is the same as ours. So, using this model, how can we disrupt the Moon Gods' predictions regarding the 'human world' research target, preventing them from accurately predicting our probabilities?
Zhou Cheng raised his head and looked directly at the first decision maker: "My answer is simple. Introduce a new variable that they cannot predict.
This variable is me.
For example, if we have enough knowledge and theory, we can predict more accurately what changes will happen to a steamed bun that is left alone and ignored as time goes by.
We can know that it will gradually dry up, grow green hairs, and gradually rot.
In the absence of external interference, our predictions are extremely accurate, just like the Moon Goddess's prediction of our human world at this moment.
But if we introduce an external variable, for example, we know that there is a hungry beggar near the steamed bun, who may rush in and eat the steamed bun at any time - but we don’t know when exactly he will rush in and eat the steamed bun, then how can we predict the future state of the steamed bun?
In the example of steamed buns, the variable is the beggar, who makes it impossible for us to predict the future changes of steamed buns.
In this situation, the variable is me. The means is to order the investigation team to investigate at any time.
Because once the investigation team begins, even if they can't actually catch the Moon God Organization's members, with so many clues, they will always find some previously unknown information. And it is certain that any previously unknown information will lead to huge changes in our entire world.
Thus, I essentially controlled the switch that would cause a huge change in the world, just like a beggar controls the switch that determines when to eat his bun.
The beggar's existence makes it impossible for us to predict Mantou's future state. My existence also makes it impossible for the Moon Goddess to predict our future state.
In this way, I have covered our world with a layer of 'randomness shield'.
With this layer of randomness shield, Moon God can no longer predict our behavior, and members of the organization affiliated with Moon God may reveal flaws in their actions.
As members of a secret organization, their behavior must be different from that of normal people.
Based on this... in a state of global alert, those whose behavior differs from that of normal people have a higher probability of being detected by our patrol officers and subsequently arrested."
