Chapter 926: The mystery of Ren Xiaosu’s background

“Zero?” Yang Xiaojin thought back and said, “You mean the AI, Zero, has appeared in front of us as a human? How did it do that?”

“I don’t know how it did it, but that’s the intuition I have.” Ren Xiaosu said, “I was able to sense it every time it called me even when its voice was disguised. It’s extremely rational and will occasionally reveal its supercomputing ability. Remember when it worked with Ji Zi’ang, they made use of 12 points in a mountain to make it collapse? You’ve got a good knowledge of demolition too, so you should understand that no matter how good a demolition expert might be, there still has to be a limit. It’s still possible to destroy a mountain by yourself, but I don’t think it’s possible to guide someone to destroy a mountain with just a few pointers.”

Actually, Ren Xiaosu was not very sure of his answer, because even though the Wang Consortium’s artificial intelligence was very advanced, the question was, what kind of technology was there to create a physical vessel for the artificial intelligence to inhabit? There was no programmable function in the human brain, after all.

He had also never heard of the Wang Consortium making any breakthrough in this area.

Wait a minute! Ren Xiaosu suddenly thought of something but could not grasp that fleeting thought.

“Forget it, the Wang Consortium’s problems don’t really have anything to do with us.” Yang Xiaojin said, “I’ve been thinking about something recently. Previously, you mentioned to P5092 that you seem to have an innate talent for hunting, like someone’s taught you before. I’d like to ask what that’s about.”

“Oh,” Ren Xiaosu answered, “it’s not just talent for hunting that I have. We’ve traveled together before, so you should know about my skills in wilderness survival. For example, I know how to start a fire in the wilderness and set up camp to avoid snakes, bugs, ants, etc. It’s like someone taught me all those skills before.”

“Like someone has taught you before?” Yang Xiaojin asked, “Can you describe this feeling in detail?”

“It feels like someone very close to me once traveled across mountains and rivers and brought me along. That powerful feeling of intimacy is always something that I have around me,” Ren Xiaosu recalled, lost in thought. “That’s why I like the wilderness so much. It’s not only wilderness survival; I’m also self-taught at rock climbing. I know how to triangulate a position and find the best route to take. It’s as though I was born with the knowledge to do all that.”

“You weren’t born with it.” Yang Xiaojin shook her head. “Those skills exist in your lost memories. This might be the clue to solving the mystery of your background. Do you understand what I mean? There aren’t many people in the world who have the same survival skills as you, so I don’t think your background is typical either.”

Yang Xiaojin was very sure of this, as she had witnessed Ren Xiaosu’s wilderness survival skills before. Were they things that just anyone could possess? So if it were really as Ren Xiaosu had said, someone must have taught him all of that before. In that case, the other party’s traits should be very obvious.

Who was the person who taught Ren Xiaosu? Yang Xiaojin speculated that person was his father.

Only a father would patiently teach their children and spend a great deal of effort to nurture them.

“Is there anything else? Anything related to the lost memories?” Yang Xiaojin asked.

“Oh yeah.” Ren Xiaosu chuckled and said, “One winter, when it snowed heavily at Stronghold 113, I was out looking for food when I got stuck in the mountains. At that time, I really wanted to chop down a few wooden planks and ski down from the mountain. But when I realized that the conditions didn’t allow for it, I didn’t do so. However, my desire for skiing remained fresh in my mind. After this war is over, let’s go skiing together in the Northwest this winter. I heard that it’s a snowy place, so it should be quite suitable for skiing.”

“Sure.” Yang Xiaojin smiled and got up to walk back towards the camp. “Deal.”

Ren Xiaosu was still sitting at the perimeter of the defensive position and looking forward to a beautiful life after the war was over. When he returned to the Northwest, he would no longer have to engage in fighting and killing. How great would that be?

However, Ren Xiaosu did not notice that Yang Xiaojin did not return to her tent. Instead, she headed straight for Wang Yun’s tent.

After she called Wang Yun outside, he asked, “Ma’am, what are you looking for me for?”

“I’ll state a few conditions. See if you can help me find someone in your memory,” Yang Xiaojin said.

If it were the past, it would probably be really difficult for her to find someone based on these conditions. After all, there were tens of millions of people in the Alliance of Strongholds, so where could she possibly find them?

But it was different now that they had Wang Yun. The man’s brain was like a computer.

Wang Yun nodded and said, “Go ahead. I’ll see if such a person exists in my memory.”

Yang Xiaojin deliberated over her words and said, “Who’s the best hunter in this world?”

Wang Yun was stunned. “Future Commander?”

Yang Xiaojin was speechless.

She could not tell if this was Wang Yun’s attempt at flattery or what, but to be honest, she really did not expect this answer.

Yang Xiaojin bluntly said, “Let’s change the question. In this world, who’s the best at hunting, wilderness survival, skiing, and rock climbing? There’s no need to compare who’s the best since it’s not going to be easy. You can just give several answers at once.”

After all, no one had ever been compared like that in this way before. It would probably be a little difficult for Wang Yun to say exactly who was the best.

However, Wang Yun shook his head with a smile. “There’s no need to compare who’s the best at those skills. I only know one person who fits the description.”

Yang Xiaojin wondered, “Who?”

“The Qinghe Group’s founder, Ren He,” Wang Yun replied. “That man is a legend. A lot of people know he’s not just into skiing, free solo climbing, and wilderness survival. He also does wingsuit flying, downhill mountain biking, speedboarding, skydiving, BASE jumping, high diving, and surfing too. He’s recognized as the greatest ever in these activities. Speaking of which, it’s also quite strange. Before The Cataclysm, those who were into such activities known as extreme sports would generally not accept others being better than them. But when I went through the information, I discovered that everyone in this scene recognized this founder of the Qinghe Group to be the best.”

Yang Xiaojin was silent for a moment before asking again, “Are there any more legendary stories about the founder of the Qinghe Group?”

“Yes.” Wang Yun said, “It’s said that Ren He unlocked the genetic code in him before The Cataclysm. Do you understand what I mean? He might be the first superhuman in the world.”

“Is that a rumor or something true?” Yang Xiaojin asked.

“I’m not sure.” Wang Yun chuckled and said, “There’s also rumors that his son also unlocked his genetic lock before The Cataclysm. Who knows?”

Yang Xiaojin smiled. “Sorry to trouble you, thank you.”

“It’s fine.” After that, Wang Yun went back to sleep. Currently, other than the soldiers on duty at the defensive position, everyone else was conserving their strength as they awaited the next battle.
