The two fiery arrows that were not supposed to be fired here escaped from the bomb bay under the belly of the Nuwa, ignited and accelerated toward the city below.
Yu Zhesen had no time to think too much and activated Time Stall, and at the critical moment, he shrouded the two fierce arrows at the edge of the Time Stall range.
During the time stagnation, the AI Shixin invaded the control system of the Nuwa through the flight helmet worn on Yu Zhesen's head. Shining Skynet instantly cleared the virus program in the central control system of the fighter aircraft, and then ordered two Fierce Strike Missiles.
Self-destruct command.
The time stagnation ended, and the Nuwa flew sideways across the sky, leaving behind two explosions of fire.
Freed from the constraints of the seat belt, Yu Zhesen took off his helmet and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.
It's so dangerous... He controlled the fighter plane to lower its flight altitude while looking down. The densely packed docks, warehouses, factories and residential areas on Hong Kong Island came into view. If the two fiery arrows hit the ground, he didn't know what would happen.
How many casualties were caused.
"Shi Xin, why did the Nuwa lose control? Have you found the reason?"
[The core control center of the fighter plane was infected by the virus, and the virus wrote the instructions to destroy the city into its AI control logic code. 】
"Has the source of the virus been found?"
[Not yet, although the virus in the main program has been cleaned up, this virus seems to have strong self-replication and regeneration capabilities. 】
Yu Zhesen's mind showed the scene of AI Shixin fighting the virus in the system program of the Nuwa. The Shining Skynet covering the control center burned out batches of virus programs that came over, but the enemy seemed to be coming one after another.
Continuously.
In other words, the Nuwa is not out of danger yet. If the heart stays at the control center without AI, the control of the fighter plane may still be taken away by the virus.
Where did this virus come from?
Obviously the fighter plane is not connected to the external network, why can't the virus be completely removed?
[It is recommended to check the external interface of the central control computer.] AI Time Center gave a prompt.
The external interface of the computer? Yu Zhesen was stunned for a moment, and then he figured it out - the virus that even Shining Skynet could not completely eliminate must come from outside, and the Nuwa was not connected to the external network at this time, so the virus
The source is most likely from some physical external device.
It's just that he doesn't know much about the structure of the Nuwa. The focus of his previous studies was just how to fly this fighter plane. Now it would be a bit of a rush to find it in a hurry.
Fortunately, the cockpit is not large, and there are not many external interfaces left for the central control computer. In addition to the four interfaces facing the driver's position, there are only two interfaces hidden under the console.
Yu Zhesen asked Shi Xin to control the fighter plane to maintain a stable flying posture, and he left his seat and leaned under the operating table to check the situation.
After crawling underneath, Yu Zhesen couldn't help but secretly complain to the designer of the Nuwa. The two interfaces under the operating console were in very tricky positions. He couldn't see the position directly through his sight, so he could only use his hands to fumble around.
He first touched the port on the left and found that the port on the left was empty, so he reached out and touched the right.
Then Yu Zhesen discovered a raised hard object on the surface of the interface on the right side. The surface looked round to the touch, which was probably the source of the virus release.
"If you find it, can you just pull it out?"
[Let’s pull it out first and give it a try, otherwise the battle here will be endless.]
Trusting Shi Xin's judgment, Yu Zhesen grabbed the foreign object on the right interface and pulled it out with force, successfully removing it.
He was about to pull his hand back to see what it was, when he suddenly felt a stinging pain on his fingertips.
Yu Zhesen took a breath of air and raised his hand to see clearly that what he was holding was a small crab-shaped robot.
At this time, the mechanical crab was holding his index finger and middle finger between its two claws, and blood was oozing from the pinched area.
"What the hell is this..." He squeezed his palms hard, trying to use the power of God's blood to crush the mechanical crab, but Shi Xin's screams to stop him came in his mind.
【Don’t do this yet!】
Yu Zhesen restrained his strength in time and waited for AI Shixin to give the next sentence.
[The virus in the Nuwa system has been cleaned up and there is no more proliferation. It seems that this mechanical crab is indeed an external source of the virus. 】
"How to get rid of it?"
【I think if I go inside it, I might be able to figure out its origin.】
"So I have to stay trapped like this?"
【It won’t take long, it will be fine soon.】
Yu Zhesen agreed to Shi Xin's proposal, and his consciousness went deep into the virtual space along with Shi Xin's invasion of the mechanical crab.
Under the powerful breakthrough of Shixin's unique offensive firewall second form "Gangnir Meteor", the mechanical crab's system defense was as brittle as tissue paper and was instantly disintegrated.
The configuration information stored inside the mechanical crab was clearly listed in front of Yu Zhesen and Shi Xin.
"Electronic Combat Puppet Type 1...is this thing's official name?" Yu Zhesen murmured to himself while reading the information.
[In a broad sense, this is also a kind of drone, but it is used to target large armored equipment with advanced computer systems. Of course, it is also effective against some exoskeletons and cyberbodies with poor protection. 】
This kind of mechanical creation, which is only half the size of an adult's palm, can sneak into large weapons and equipment like the Nuwa without being noticed, and seize control of the weapons by injecting viruses through physical interfaces.
"Is this, like the Grizzly 2, also military equipment?"
[Yes, the electronic combat puppet is also a weapon produced by ZEUS Military Technology Company. Like the Grizzly 2 exoskeleton armor, it was once supplied to the defense forces in St. Newman City and other places. ]
"It's hard to imagine why the National Defense Forces would purchase this kind of equipment?" Yu Zhesen was very puzzled.
[You don’t doubt why weapons and equipment fell from the hands of the military to criminals, but you doubt the motives of the military in adopting such weapons?] AI Shixin seems to have become interested in Yu Zhesen’s ideas.
"It's hard not to doubt their motives. There is no distinction between countries in the new era under the Iron Dome Order. The only ones who possess large-scale armored weapons are the National Defense Forces. They can't purchase this kind of electronic warfare puppet to target themselves, right?"
Yu Zhesen felt that the SADF officers who advocated the purchase of such equipment might have the ambition to start a civil war.
[It seems to be a historical law of human civilization that the long-term division must unite and the long-term uniting must divide. Do you believe that the era of great integration built by the Iron Dome Order can be lasting? 】
"The old era was destroyed because of high-tech warfare. This is a bloody lesson."
[An important lesson that can be learned throughout the history of human civilization is that humans will not learn lessons.] AI Shixin gave a teasing smile as he spoke.
Yu Zhesen didn't intend to refute. He agreed with Shi Xin's views from the bottom of his heart, but the focus of his attention right now was that AI Shi Xin had unknowingly undergone some changes, and she seemed to be gradually regaining her lost feelings.
[I can learn and train myself. This function includes simulating personality language and emotions. 】
"Does that mean the time mind I'm familiar with might come back?"
