Chapter 481 Black Wall Golem

On the top floor of the Sapphire Blue Building, the moonlight covered the ground like mercury, and the quiet and hazy silver light shrouded the roof. The pyramid building not far away shone like a gem, sitting like a flawless luminous pearl in the gray night.

The infrastructure construction of Dog Town is extremely poor. Only a few street lights on the road can light up. There is no light in the large areas of abandoned buildings and buildings. At night, it is basically only slightly worse than "cannot see even the five fingers", which is different from that in the city.

Compared to the bustling downtown area of ​​Night City, which is as bright as day at night, this place is as dilapidated as a refugee camp.

Lin Mo stood on the edge of the rooftop wall, leaning forward and calmly overlooking the lively battle ground below. The three armed helicopters were hovering around the building, like door gods, blocking the ghosts who were trying to approach the Sapphire Green Hotel.

Dog reinforcements.

The attention of the three helicopters was attracted by the movement below. They did not expect that there was still a person standing on the roof of the building that they had cleared long ago.

After an unknown amount of time, Lin Mo, who had been standing by the wall, finally made a move.

His gaze suddenly moved in the direction of an abandoned apartment building, as if he was peering through numerous obstacles to see the "things" hidden in the building.

[Have you checked it clearly?] Lin Mo's eyes lit up with blue light, and he asked on the communication channel without moving his lips.

On the other end of the communication channel, Knight was in cyberspace and said:

[Well, just at your eleven o'clock point, on the 6th floor of that abandoned building, the lark we talked about before lives there. In addition, there is a complete set of mobile hacking link equipment, and her current body

The situation is very bad... To put it simply, it is not her who is controlling her body now.】

[So she is an AI now? Is it a side effect of the Little Beidou project?] Lin Mo’s eyebrows moved.

He still remembered that at the memorial service for Saburo Arasaka that night, he and Knight talked a lot about the Lark and the birth and continuation of the Little Beidou project.

This girl should be one of the products of the Little Beidou project. An unknown and powerful AI program was installed on her body, thus gaining computing power and capabilities that rivaled AI, while also suffering from the erosion of AI.

Now listening to what Knight said, the other party is now reaping the consequences?

[The specific details still need to be brought back to her and her physical condition can only be known after a careful examination. However, she does not behave like a normal person now. Wait a moment and I will send you a video.] Nai.

Specially said.

A data packet was sent, Lin Mo clicked to download, and soon a video screen appeared in front of him.

This is a video. Judging from the perspective, it should have been shot by a small camera hanging on someone's chest. This person is holding an assault rifle. The enemies in front of him are Nether Dog Sergeant and Kangtao Security.

But the imagined fierce exchange of fire did not happen. Before the two sides could fire bullets at each other, the battle ended in one second. All enemies exposed within the shooting range of the camera were attacked by the golems, and electric arcs exploded from their bodies.

Become a "stressed person".

Not only that, even those relatively "innocent" electronic devices were scrapped on the spot, one by one, as if a powerful electromagnetic pulse grenade had exploded on the floor.

But compared to electromagnetic pulse grenades... this invisible method of killing people is more frightening...

[Where did you get this video?] Lin Mo asked.

[I intercepted a short section of the gunmen’s chest cameras from their processors, but no one discovered it.] Knight said flatly.

As expected of Ye's company's mysterious AI, it is indeed confident... Lin Mo thought to himself.

Even the humanoid AI named Lark might not have thought that one of his own would be hacked without his knowledge, and a video would be intercepted without his knowledge.

[What kind of demon is this? Why do I feel familiar?] He turned off the video and asked with some confusion.

[The name of the golem is unknown for the time being, but the effect of this golem is to forcibly connect to the victim's brain processor, and then link their processor to the past Internet...] Speaking of which, Nai

Te's tone paused and he said with some meaning:

【You should know what this means.】

[Internet...] Lin Mo murmured to himself, never thinking that he would hear this familiar yet unfamiliar term.

Before the 1920s, this term represented a prosperous and technologically prosperous online network. At that time, people had just come into contact with cyberspace and regarded it as a second world to escape reality.

This prosperous phenomenon lasted until Bartmos released the [Data Crash] virus... After that, the so-called Internet became the "Old Network", where many wandering AIs and humans with malicious intentions towards humans roamed.

An aggressive malicious program.

The [Local Area Network] people use today is completely different from the [Internet] used fifty years ago. An adaptive two-way algorithm ICE program called the "Black Wall" isolates the two parties.

And now, this golem can allow people to connect to the "Internet", which means...

[Can she pass through the black wall? This demon has the ability to throw people outside the black wall?] Lin Mo asked with a solemn expression.

[Well, you are right. If the AI ​​carried by this hacker is really the blackwall AI from the old network, then it would not be surprising that he has such a functional puppet.] Knight said calmly,

It doesn’t seem strange at all:

[And by the way, I would like to mention that now people are accustomed to collectively refer to those wandering AIs with unknown names and unknown origins as black wall AI. At the same time, black wall is also an ambiguous word, because people don’t know what the world outside the black wall is like.

, some people are even used to simply calling the world outside the black wall the black wall.]

Lin Mo fell into silence, and after a long time he sighed:

[I have to say that this is really a wonderful method of killing...]

In today's era, even the forces at the top of the pyramid in the hacker world - network surveillance, they have always been very secretive about the Internet... that is, the old network, beyond the black wall, etc.

No hacker is willing to risk going to the world beyond the black wall to explore the unknown, because doing so will only waste his life in vain.

If you randomly connect to the old network instead of today's local area network, then the wandering AI that has been wandering on the old network for countless years will also notice the foreign intruders at the first time and ruthlessly tear them apart!

[Your description is absolutely correct. Let’s call this golem the black wall golem for the time being. Its purpose is not actually offensive, but functional. Its function is to connect the enemy’s processor to the old network.

.Then let those people be torn apart by things outside the black wall!] Knight confirmed Lin Mo’s statement.

[If she does this, is she not afraid of being discovered by network monitors?] Lin Mo asked curiously.

As the creator of the [Black Wall] that is now openly stated, any records and traces of access to the Black Wall will be traced by network surveillance, and they do not allow anyone to destroy the Black Wall.

Knight smiled, and there was a hint of ridicule in the laughter: [They are backed by military technology and eat from the public. Even if the network monitors have suspicions, they have no reason to investigate these clues. If this matter is exposed,

, the unlucky one is not her, but the person who ordered her to do this.】

[Yes.] Lin Mo nodded.

Compared with the risks of researching illegal AI weaponization and treating people as AI containers, borrowing a little "blackwall power" is nothing.

The former is simply trampling on international law, while the latter can blame "individual behavior".

At this time, Lin Mo, who was enjoying the conversation, suddenly flashed a little orange in his eyes. He immediately answered the call as quickly as possible and chatted with the person on the other end of the phone for a few words.

"Huh? Is the situation a little tricky? Is there anything wrong with V and the others? Well, I understand, don't worry, give me ten seconds, I will deal with them right now. After waiting for so long, it's time

It’s time to close the net.”

The orange eyes quickly dimmed and turned into a faint blue color.

[Nate, help me, deal with the remaining guys. I'm going to catch that lark, and the behind-the-scenes commander hiding in the apartment building.] Lin Mo ordered.

.

"It's a trivial matter." Knight replied.

Lin Mo nodded, stepped on the rooftop wall, and jumped down. On the way, he stretched out his hand and took out a grenade from his pocket.

...

...
