"Mr. Gao, can I know your true purpose?" Miss Ke said calmly.
"Please rest assured that as the department intelligence officer, I am only loyal to the previous department chiefs. You don't have to worry, I will leak your secrets to anyone, including Miss Yagami Motoko."
"I will help you do what you want to do better."
The senior engineer smiled and disagreed.
Maybe what the other party said is true, but the 'secret' itself is a form of information.
"For example, there is news right now that may be useful to you."
"oh?"
"The third bookshelf, the fifth book from left to right, maybe you will find a surprise."
Gao Gong raised his eyebrows, walked to the bookshelf, and found a book with yellowed pages - "The Explosion of Life"
It talks about some of the evolution of this planet in the paleontological period and is a popular science article.
The senior engineer opened it and soon found a letter.
"This is?"
"This was sent by a former minister through some channels. I think he wanted you to see it. Of course, maybe not now, but I think it should not be kept a secret from the current minister."
"What Aramaki left for me?"
The senior engineer took it apart and raised his eyebrows. There were only a series of names on it.
"Do you need me to confirm the identities of these people for you?"
"Um."
Soon, marked character information appeared one by one. Most of them were cloud nobles, and they were the best among the cloud nobles. A certain elder of the Xie family, a core member of the Miller family, a certain rich bionic man, a space colonizer
A descendant of the deceased, a member of the Skull and Bones Society, an organizer of the Old Friends Club...
"These people's information is encrypted and cannot be retrieved without the authority of the supervisory department."
Gao Gong glanced over them one by one and gradually showed a surprised expression. However, after reading it, the surprised expression disappeared, and instead there was a trace of indescribable doubts.
Twelve branches of nobles in the clouds
That is, the group of people who colluded with alien forces, summoned the memory matrix, and invaded the fortress.
The senior engineer saw many familiar faces, such as the founder of the Paradise Club, a member of the Old Friends Club, the third-generation Miller who developed the imaginative girl, the first wise man of the Diwang Group, the Skull and Bones Society, and the Fairy Tale Toy Park
The founder of Bandai, a crazy entrepreneur.
Gao Gong really did not expect that even the Skull and Bones Society would be developed into an insider. He thought that only the nobles in the clouds were qualified to become the alien guide party.
However, considering the role of Skull and Bones members in the cyber tide, it is quite normal.
But this group of people is different from the polluters of the ‘Memory Matrix’.
The latter is simply contaminated and instinctively longs for the arrival of this fifth-level information monster.
And this group of people is the real party leading the way.
Their backstage is the force that actually sends the coordinates of this planet to the memory matrix.
Those people have truly profound backgrounds. After all, those who dare to risk offending the ‘Level 7 Civilization’ and go to the Cyber Testing Site to cause trouble are by no means ordinary people in the universe.
"Old guy Aramaki is really fast."
The senior engineer murmured and suddenly asked another question.
"Have you told Captain Suzi about this?"
"No," Miss Shell replied.
"Very good, keep it up."
"But -" Miss Ke rarely showed a hesitant tone, "Miss Suzi should be happy to join your cause."
"She will join, but not now," Gao Gong said softly: "You have to know that behind these people is a very terrifying force. Let alone Aramaki and me, even in the mother city, under that force
It may not be enough for the eyes, so caution is a must.”
"Can't we control these people first?"
"No, this is the most taboo," Gao Gong shook his head.
Although using the power of the Ghost in the Shell mobile unit, at least on this planet, it is possible to kill all these people in one fell swoop.
But then what?
What should we do if the existence behind the other party sets off a cyber wave in advance?
In the current situation, every second counts, and we can delay it as long as we can.
Make a dojo inside the snail shell.
He understood what Aramaki meant.
If he fails in the middle, the list will be handed over to him and he will continue to advance the matter.
In a sense, this is Aramaki's real 'legacy', not the Ghost in the Shell beneath his feet.
"Take me to see the real secrets of this department."
"Okay, Minister."
Following Miss Ke's words, the entire floor began to change. A large number of bookshelves moved according to regular patterns, and sounds of "squeaking" and "squeaking" came from the ground. With the hearing of a senior engineer, it can be heard that this is not just one or two.
It’s not a change of floors, but a change of floors on thousands of floors.
Finally, a hole of about three meters appeared in the center of the bookshelf.
"Gravity void?"
"Yes."
"Then this place is quite far away."
There are two types of gravity holes, one is the 'regional type', such as the combat center developed specifically for advanced NPCs, or some large aircraft, such as the anti-gravity system that comes with the sky aircraft carrier, which is the regional type; the other is
Belonging to the 'long-distance transmission type', this kind of gravity hole is an ultra-long-distance transmission that can only be completed with the help of certain large stars.
It is equivalent to a front-end technology for large-scale space teleportation.
When Gao Gong stepped into it, an inexplicable force supported his body, making him suspended in the hollow.
Then the next moment, his figure disappeared instantly.
And the star that this 'gravity hole' borrows is undoubtedly this mechanical star.
…
This 'transmission' probably took nearly a day.
Gaogong sank, sank, and sank again.
As he sank, a familiar force enveloped him.
Because when the fall was halfway down, the heat began to get higher and higher, so high that the body of Gao Gong could no longer bear it.
That's close to 5000, even 6000 degrees.
The pressure is also very high, about two thousand times that of the surface of a mechanically broken star.
Gao Gong's entire body seemed to be stuffed into an increasingly larger planet, which not only wanted to completely submerge him, but also completely swallowed him up, leaving him completely unable to stand up.
Every cell, every bone, every nerve circuit is creaking under this huge force.
Gao Gong had an idea, and all the 20 free attribute points he had saved were added to endurance.
Stamina:232→252
[Your HP 1000 (mechanical)]
[Your HP 1000 (biological)]
[Your physical strength is 100 points]
Although it is only a little better, it is still a good relaxation.
'Is this how Aramaki used to come in? No wonder this old man is so thin and emaciated. He probably crushed his kidneys.'
Fortunately, when the surrounding environment turned into flames, the gravity of the gravity hole had changed a second time, wrapping him like a ball.
In this case, Gao Gong couldn't feel any gravity at all.
He knew where he had come, the center of the Earth, where the Earth's core was located.
In the super high temperature of the core, the magma has almost completely solidified, but you can vaguely see some large machinery digging inside. The high temperature has coated the surface of the machinery with a layer of bright light, making every detail visible.
The high temperature resistance of this metal exceeds that of any alloy known to engineers, including this set of its own mechanical body.
The gravity void introduces itself to the surface of the core, a 'cuboid' with no edges visible to the naked eye.
…
There is a saying that the best way to deal with hackers is not to install some invincible software, but to directly unplug the network cable.
In the cyber era, this approach also applies.
The hacking method of cyber hackers relies entirely on the simulated signals overflowing from the human body.
But there is no signal that can span nearly 7,000 kilometers, from the surface to the center of the earth. In other words, here, the network is completely disconnected.
Any 'secret plug-ins', 'brain reading information software', or 'brain wave receivers' you install on others will be completely hacked and enter a downtime state.
Moreover, the nearly 10,000-degree high temperature here also blocks the penetration of some information life.
After all, energy outweighs information.
The headquarters of the six major supervisory departments are installed in the center of the earth.
As soon as Gao Gong's feet fell, he couldn't help but sigh.
"In the past, we always said that if the enemy threatens us again in the future, we will use our own 'Earth Breakthrough Machine' to dig into the ground and destroy both the jade and the stone. Now it seems that we are still naive. The mother city must have been at the weakest place on the planet.
A strong enough defense system has been installed, and even third-level civilization weapons cannot break through this defense system."
"Protecting the safety of this planet is also the normal maintenance work of this cyber testing ground."
When the senior engineer looked around, he saw an endless space, and inside the space, there were also endless ‘cabinets’.
“Old school style.”
"The entire 'Ghost in the Shell Center' is composed of 10 million computing cabinets. It is mainly responsible for all monitoring of corporate executives, model construction of evolutionary routes, simulation tests of technical directions, and warnings and reminders for illegal tests."
"There are actually 'illegal tests' at the cyber testing site?"
"some."
"Give me a few examples."
"In May of Cyber Calendar 41, the 'Red Water Group' attempted to create liquid life. Because this life was highly polluting, we stopped it."
"In September of Cyber Calendar 51, members of the Skeleton Foundation and Death Technology attempted to create a large-scale 'death experiment', but Captain Suzi arrived in advance, sabotaged it, and killed the founder of Death Technology."
"In January of Cyber Calendar 52, the biological giant, Venos Life Safety Group, attempted to conduct large-scale biochemical experiments in four colonies..."
The senior engineer listened for a while and understood. The so-called "illegal experiments" are technical experiments that may trigger a "planetary crisis". Making virtual humans, engaging in global brainwave connection, etc. are all acts of seeking death, and
It's bringing all the life on the planet to death.
This behavior must be stopped.
Everything else is basically gone.
"Do you know why I came here?" Gao Gong suddenly asked.
"Didn't former Minister Aramaki ask you to come here to investigate the list in your hand?" Miss Ke said in a confused tone.
The senior engineer pondered for a moment and said, "Yes, that's right."
"Based on the frequency of changes in your heartbeat, pulse, and skin pores, there is an 85.2% chance that you are lying."
