At this time, there were two people in the minister's office, Ma Xiacheng and deputy team leader Ma Xianglan.

Ren Zhong knocked on the door.

The door opened, and it was Ma Xianglan who opened the door.

She looked a little strange and said, "Mr. Ren, please come in."

Ren Zhong stood outside the door without raising his feet.

Ma Xianglan: "Mr. Ren?"

Ren Zhong blinked, "As a layman, it's more appropriate to just stand outside the door and chat."

Ma Xianglan's expression froze.

What is supposed to come will come sooner or later.

Recalling her strange behavior yesterday, she suddenly felt red-faced and extremely embarrassed.

She originally thought that Ren Zhong would hang around here for a while at most, and then quit, declaring that the minister's respect for him was meaningless and a pure waste of resources.

Then, she, Ma Xianglan, can naturally take a step further.

I didn't expect the slap in the face to come so fast and so hard.

Not to mention it was her, even Ma Xiacheng, who personally brought Ren Zhong in, was also surprised.

Just when Ma Xianglan was a little at a loss, Ren Zhong grinned, took a step forward, ducked into the room, and said, "It's just a joke. Don't be nervous, Deputy Team Leader Ma, I have no dissatisfaction with you."

Ma Xianglan relaxed a little and exhaled, "Thank you, Mr. Ren, for understanding. Actually, I...I'm not that..."

Ren Zhong waved his hand, "It's just human nature, I understand it."

As he spoke, he smiled again: "You were right yesterday, I was indeed a layman at the time. But today I should be considered a layman. Although it is a bit bragging to say this, it is a fact. These tasks are indeed not difficult for me.

The job of a logic engineer is different from what I did at Amethyst Mining. In essence, it is just ordinary repetition. What needs to be tested is memory, logical analysis ability, and the ability to comprehensively summarize information. There is nothing wrong with this job.

Creativity doesn’t even reach the level where you need to test your IQ in school. It’s really too simple.”

After saying that, Ren Zhong looked at Ma Xiacheng calmly.

Under normal circumstances, Ren Zhong is not such an outgoing person.

He rarely boasts and prefers to use practical actions to prove himself.

For a person like him, there is basically no need for self-promotion.

But now that the situation has changed, he needs to show a more wild attitude in the Shenzhen News Group to further enhance his attractiveness and at the same time create more favorable preconditions for the subsequent negotiations.

Ma Xiacheng sighed, "It's a good thing that you have confidence in the task. If I had known that you had such ability, I should have brought you in a few months ago. If so, maybe we wouldn't have reached this point today. If

You can give early warning and allow various departments to prepare early, and you may even be able to prevent disasters from happening."

Ren Zhong smiled and shook his head: "You know it's hard to buy, but the most expensive thing in the world is regret medicine. And before I came here, I didn't know that I was actually suitable for this job. Even if you invited me at the beginning, I might not agree.

In addition, hiring me also goes against the principles of the Ma family. Under normal circumstances, it would be difficult for you to convince others."

Ma Xiacheng nodded: "That's right. Okay, Deputy Team Leader Ma, you go and do your work first. I have something to discuss with Ren Zhong alone."

Ma Xianglan had no choice but to go out after hearing this.

Obviously, she knew that she had lost her position as team leader.

After the office door closed, Ma Xiacheng got straight to the point: "You already know the general situation. There is indeed a problem with the 'net'. You also understand the structure of the 'net' now. But at the moment you don't know the more specific situation.

, let me show it to you first."

Ren Zhong: "Okay."

After speaking, Ma Xiacheng waved his hand, and a stereoscopic projector installed on the ceiling of the office lit up.

The lattice structure of the "net" that Ren Zhong had seen before appeared on the white and shiny wall.

The difference is that the last time Ren Zhong saw this picture, it was a three-dimensional structure, but this time it became a three-dimensional picture simulated by a two-dimensional plane.

Ma Xiacheng: "You already know what different colors mean. So, tell me what you think now."

Ren Zhong nodded slightly and stared at the projection ahead.

In the previous timeline, when the confrontation between "Net" and him reached its peak, most of the modules turned dark red, ranging from red to purple. A very few modules turned orange.

But at this time, almost all of these modules are glowing dark red, and the brightness changes like human breathing.

Its change pattern is determined by the movement of another color that makes people talk about tiger colors.

It's exactly black.

At this time, a small number of modules appear black.

But these black parts are not fixed, but keep swimming around like a greedy snake.

The direction in which it wanders is very random and appears to be irregular.

Whenever the black snake goes somewhere, the surrounding red modules immediately become darker.

The dark red module is constantly trying to suppress and surround the black parts.

But the black part can often escape the moment before the crimson module forms a complete encirclement.

In just a few seconds, the black module encountered several dangers, but always managed to escape.

Ma Xiacheng explained: "What I show you is actually a simulation picture that has been slowed down a million times. The actual scene is faster than this and changes more intensely. In our usual understanding, the module changes to

Black means that it has become a bad block and needs to be replaced. This phenomenon of fading black in a very short period of time has never occurred before. But despite this, the situation has not improved, but is getting worse. The wandering black block has just begun.

When it appeared, it was just a very small part, covering even one small module. But now the scope has expanded to more than ten large modules, and it continues to expand.”

Ren Zhong took a breath, "It's very serious."

"Yes." Ma Xiacheng sighed, "As time goes by, one day the entire 'net' will be blackened, and it will be irreversible."

Ren Zhong frowned and asked, "Didn't you try to change it as usual?"

Ma Xiacheng shook his head: "It keeps wandering. It's impossible for frontline construction workers to catch up with its speed. In addition, if we want to replace the bad blocks, we need frontline workers to open the closed cavity. But now the 'net' has been closed

Port for external control."

Ren Zhong: “In short, is it autistic?”

"right."

"Yeah." Ren Zhong responded, then stood in front of the projection with his arms folded, frowning in thought.

Ma Xiacheng looked at Ren Zhong's back and said nothing, just letting him think for himself.

He has tried every means, but to no avail. Now it is better to put his hope in Ren Zhong, a "foreign monk". Maybe Ren Zhong can even chant sutras?

Gradually, Ren Zhong clenched his fists and his wide eyes became bloodshot.

Ma Xiacheng felt deeply. Sure enough, no one's success comes from chance.

The concentration shown by Ren Zhong when thinking about problems is beyond ordinary people's level.

Little did he know that the heavy responsibility at this time was purely due to his excessive excitement.

Although it is just a change in color, Ren Zhong, who knows more about the inside story, has already figured out more information.

This is not a simple data change, this is Sun Ai's battlefield.

She is using her own way to fight against the super intelligence that rules the entire Source Star human race.

It cannot be denied that she is in a very bad situation at this time, as she is always being chased and intercepted by her opponents, but it cannot be denied that she is tenacious and alert.

As Ma Xiacheng said just now, at the beginning this black block was so weak that it could only cover a small module, but now it has grown to such an extent in just two days.

Under the circumstances of this ebb and flow, the defeat of "Net" is doomed.

call……

After a long time, Ren Zhong breathed a sigh of relief.

Ma Xiacheng, who was next to him, quickly asked: "What do you think? Do you have any ideas for a solution?"

Ren Zhong looked back at each other.

Ma Xiacheng also looked at this new subordinate whom he valued highly.

He didn't know that what Ren Zhong was analyzing at this time was not the "net" at all, but his thinking.

Ren Zhong raised his right hand and rubbed his chin. He speculated that Ma Xiacheng had not guessed the "Trojan horse" level.

Although there is a profession of hacker on the Origin Star, the hacker's opponent has always been an intelligence brain made with Ruin Beast chip as the core.

No one dares to think that the black technology "network" from advanced civilizations will one day be poisoned or infected with Trojan horses.

The humans of the Origin Star have not yet fully understood the super-intelligent principles of the "Net", and they may not dare to imagine what kind of opponents can hack the "Net".

However, Ren Zhong still put forward his speculation, "Minister, do you think the Internet may be infected by a virus?"

Ma Xiacheng immediately shook his head, "This is unrealistic. The 'Net' has a defense system beyond our imagination, and completely exceeds the firewall performance we understand. If there is really any Trojan or virus that can invade the 'Net', then there is only one explanation."

Ren Zhong: "What?"

"We are being targeted by a civilization of the same level as the Empire, or even a higher level than the Empire. So why are we struggling? Wouldn't it be easier to just lie down and die?"
