The Holy City, the origin of the first punk revolution, is also known as the Brilliant City, the City of Gears, and the Holy City. Legend has it that the ancient Holy Spirit descended here for the first time from heaven.
In the cyber era, the world's number one hacker organization, Tyria, borrowed its name from this city.
However, Ms. Dida did not have a good impression of this city that smelled of feces. She rubbed her calfskin boots hard against the steps, trying to wipe away the unknown feces on the soles.
‘It’s not a good thing if the world of consciousness is too realistic, the smell is disgusting~’
Tick finally understood why the NPCs here always had a strong and uncomfortable smell of perfume. It turned out to be because of this.
"So--"
Ms. Tick took out a pocket watch from her pocket. When she opened the pocket watch with silver and gold patterns, it didn't have three needles, but an ultra-small screen. Starting from the palm of her hand, the blue code spread from the wrist to the fingertips, and then
Then, the screen of the pocket watch brightened, and blue light covered almost the entire street. Wherever the light hit, all pedestrians, vendors, businessmen, and nobles froze, and in the next moment, they disintegrated into countless subconscious fragments.
"Subconscious fragments" are like white cotton balls. They are not so much codes as they are a collection of signals condensed by sensory signals with various formats.
Soon, the pocket watch's tracking applet confirmed the target, which was a special signal source.
The screen in the watch disappeared and was replaced by a golden pointer, shaking and pointing in one direction.
"The tracking program still needs to be modified. After all, in the subconscious world, the slightest change in the pseudosensory signal may cause huge changes."
Tik-tak stretched out her right hand covered with black silk gloves, and kept beating her fingers as if playing a piano in the air. The fragments of her subconscious that had been affected gradually began to regain their human form, and after she snapped her fingers, the street returned to its original state again. Lady
, traders, churchgoers, slaves, and all kinds of noise.
AI has unique advantages in program modification.
She took one last look at the pointer and closed the pocket watch. However, she didn't notice that when she closed the pocket watch, the tracking pointer suddenly and strangely disappeared.
In the inner city of the Holy City, in a differential machine store specially provided by the church, a middle-aged man in a tuxedo with a cold face was repairing a differential machine. This basic product of the first punk revolution has in a sense replaced the computer.
, whether it is calculation, drawing, or data processing, they are all the same as old-fashioned computers.
All steampunk technology is built on this basis.
And this middle-aged man is the cyber killer stationed in this world of consciousness.
However, the cyber killer suddenly paused and his figure flickered.
The next moment, this cold middle-aged man disappeared, replaced by a shota with incredible looks. Shota's eyes were dazed for a moment, and then he regained consciousness and revealed a charming smile.
"Excuse me, Chappie."
Opposite, on a holographic screen, Chappie, the exclusive hacker of Ghost in the Shell, hit a Hatch.
"According to the principles of the Mother City, the authority of the Cyber Killer cannot be handed over to outsiders, especially dangerous elements like you."
"But the principle of our Ghost in the Shell mobile department is not to follow the principle."
"How can we deal with those big companies if we really do things according to principles?"
"Sounds like you're in a good mood?" The rich woman's Ai Ai prototype heard something.
"Haha, you will know soon. The old man has made progress, and the eldest sister has quietly left," Chappie smiled and winked.
"Okay, go ahead and do your work, I'll help you watch over here."
The other party hung up the communication.
Aramaki, and Yagami Motoko, what are these two people doing?
Intuitively, Gao Gong felt that this matter was probably related to Sister Rose.
…
Almost at the same time, Miss Tick-Tac also arrived at the Cyber Killer's stronghold and looked up at the signboard - 'Artisan Gops' Store'.
"Hello, is your store manager here?"
According to the rules, Miss Tick tapped the table rhythmically. This was the encrypted communication code given by the AI. Only through this communication code could the cyber killer be contacted.
Finally, Tikta heard the noise, the back door curtain was opened, and a young man who looked like a light came out and smiled at her:
"I am Gops, you can also call me, Mr. G."
Tick's little mouth opened slightly, this cyber killer's appearance... is a bit exaggerated!
…
"Drink tea."
Inside the Difference Engine shop, the senior engineer brought the other party a cup of oriental tea said to be brought from the ocean trade.
However, Tik Tak still stared at the other party without blinking, and even forgot to take the tea.
This is no surprise. In the last life, when Gao Gong designed the first version of the rich woman's love prototype, the other party provided a lot of opinions. In other words, this handsome face was in line with the other party's xp.
"So, what do you want from me?"
After serving tea to the other party, the senior engineer was still sitting on the small bench, studying the 'medieval computer' in front of him.
He is quite interested in 'computer bionics' like the Difference Engine. The intelligent life on each planet always lights up the technology tree differently due to different environments and different racial talents.
In fact, even for the same intelligent species, the order of lighting up the technology tree is not exactly the same. For example, the difference engine in front of you, if there are no restrictions on materials and precision, it may eventually replace the status of computers.
On the other hand, even if the technological branch of 'computer' is illuminated, ternary and binary systems are still uncertain.
The technological crystallization that has been illuminated naturally has its reasons for success, but if it is not illuminated, it does not mean that it will not happen. It may be limited by the limitations of the times, or it may be just a simple coincidence.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! What the senior engineer wants to know is how this difference engine, which is comparable to the 'first generation computer', breaks through the limitations of materials and times.
As a science girl, Dida's resistance to beauty is quite strong, so after the initial daze, she quickly recovered, looked at the other person's back, and said hesitantly:
"Mr. G, are you the regulator of this world? You -"
"Deep Web, Ghost in the Shell mobile department, number 11314151311."
In cyberspace, everything can be false, even cyber killers. Many viruses will even disguise themselves, act as killers, and invade each data node.
At this time, the ‘Mother City Certification’ is the most important anti-counterfeiting mark.
As an AI, Tikta quickly connected to the deep web. Electronic data kept sliding in his eyes. The holy city disappeared and was replaced by an endless green grid.
No virus dares to invade here.
Tick connected to the grid of the Gong Shell Mobile Unit, and the other grids immediately disappeared. Only the grid of the 'Gong Shell Mobile Unit' quickly grew in size, turning into a city with flashing neon lights.
Every time I see this, I can't help but sigh, how powerful the computing power is to replicate an electronic city in a few seconds.
As an intermediate AI, she was not yet able to enter the Shell Mobile Department, but there was a data inquiry station on the periphery. She entered the number into the inquiry station. Soon, the inquiry station split in the middle, revealing a hollow face of a woman wearing a mask.
With the help of ticking pupils, his eyes suddenly fell on Gao Gong.
The next moment, Gao Gong, Tick Tak, and this face emitted the same electronic light - Chappie's anti-counterfeiting mark was very effective here.
'Human beings only have the right to use their brains, and the unbounded labyrinth is the destination of the world.'
Three faces spoke this sentence at the same time.
‘The founder of Gongke Mobile Department doesn’t know what he thinks, he is preaching,’ the senior engineer complained in his mind.
Tick finally felt relieved. As far as she knew, there was no cyberspace virus that could penetrate the deep web.
"Mr. G, this world is about to collapse!"
"In cyberspace, there are many subconscious worlds on the verge of collapse. What's more, the destruction of this subconscious gathering of ancient survivors will not have an impact on the real world."
Tick took a deep breath, "But what if I say that the collapse of this world is the result of someone deliberately manipulating it?"
The senior engineer checked the tooth line arrangement of the differential engine and said without looking back: "So what?"
Tikta's tone was stagnant, he endured it for a while, and couldn't help but said: "Protecting this world is not your mission as the guardian of this world."
"You may have misunderstood," the super young lady in front of him showed a strange smile.
"My mission is to ensure that the destruction of this world will not interfere with reality or affect the 'cyber testing ground' in reality. This is my mission."
"The purpose of testing is to prevent accidents."
Dida heard what the other party meant and quickly said: "You mean, if the intruder interferes with reality, you will take action?"
The senior engineer was noncommittal and said, "What evidence do you have?"
"I do! In the last world, that is, when the Pan-Asian continent was destroyed, a large number of AIs disappeared mysteriously. I investigated for a long time and found that this matter was closely related to a force called the 'Earth Network'. Moreover, all
The world was destroyed, not even a single fragment can be found!”
Tick took out a memory chip from his small bag and said, "These are all my relevant memories in Pan Asia! You can personally verify the authenticity."
The senior engineer did not take the chip, but said: "If I follow what you said, then I can't interfere."
"Why!?"
"I just said that the purpose of cyber killers stationed in this world is to ensure the birth and death of subconscious big data without interfering with reality."
"yes!"
"This was before," the senior engineer finally successfully disassembled the differential engine and touched the pattern of the statue on the chassis, 'energy circuit'?
"what about now?"
"I'm afraid you don't know one thing. The corporate war is about to begin, and this time the corporate war will be held in 'cyberspace'."
"So what?" Tikta asked.
The senior engineer smiled: "This means that the priority of the cyberspace test site will be higher than reality."
