Chapter 1133: Chapter 959: The Secret of the Heart-Piercing Hand Knife_2
This is an unavoidably lethal initial attack, and right now, the enemies of Dumb Bird must be trying every possible way to decipher the secrets of its abilities.
Military technology, Gene Master, along with the faith-changed Consciousness Entities are all sparing no effort in their research, which is evident from the technologies displayed in the fourth zone, Oasis, and the military technology that do not belong to them.
There are rumors that the "Overload IV" was not independently developed by the military tech team, and that it originated from somewhere in the prison.
"So, if someone could switch between reality and the chaotic flow of time just like you, would the Invincible Universe’s heart-piercing hand knife become ineffective?"
According to Song Lan’s explanation, the reason he can overlap part of his body with other people or objects is because, when his ability is activated, he is actually no longer in this world but resides in an illusion composed of time. However, under this theoretical model, if someone were to teleport along with him, placing themselves in the same temporal domain, then Song Lan’s extended hand would no longer pass through the other person’s body.
Perhaps the other’s consciousness wouldn’t experience a void either, and witness the entire process of time-leaping intact.
"Perhaps, but I’ve never faced such an opponent before."
"Then... do you want to prepare some other ultimate moves?"
Lu Xiang asked, "I can teach you some close combat techniques."
Hand-to-hand combat is not Song Lan’s forte, and in the absence of using Spiritual Energy and abilities, the situation could become disadvantageous.
"I have prepared other ultimate moves; Invincible Universe’s heart-piercing hand knife is just one of my skills."
Yet this skill seems to be overly powerful, as he has not yet had the chance to use any other abilities.
"Other ultimate moves?"
"Classified for now."
Song Lan said mysteriously, of course, he alone knew the reason.
In his vision, the Invincible Universe series would have a complete and rich skill tree, but he hasn’t yet come up with names for other moves.
Lu Xiang didn’t press further, as the effect of her reminder was achieved, and she believed that Song Lan would properly develop his abilities.
And next, she had important business to attend to here.
This darkened room serves as the Judge’s office. The title and identity of a former arena king allow the Judges to do as they please in their governed districts but also inevitably involves them in some core "operations."
A Consciousness Entity can no longer install any prosthesis, which means they require a working computer.
Unsurprisingly, the computer’s encryption system is manufactured by military technology, and the Review Meeting has long suspected close ties between military technology and the prison.
The importance of teamwork became evident at this moment. Song Lan’s understanding of passwords still revolves around the conjecture "could it be the Judge’s birthday?" Perhaps it’s due to his return to the mindset before the third war that he inevitably retains some old-world thinking, especially the understanding of networks and electronic devices, which is on the same level as the elderly men and women in district seventeen.
Even with the augmentation of Dr. Bai Zhu and the "Sea of Souls" artificial intelligence, cracking the firewall was immensely difficult.
Time ticked by every second. Sitting at the computer desk, Lu Xiang tightly shut her eyes, her brows deeply furrowed.
The secrets stored in the computer confirmed the Review Meeting’s suspicion. It was clear that the designer of the firewall was not just some skilled elite programmer from military technology, but something much more concealed.
Such as artificial intelligence.
Within the United Government, there has always been a belief that military technology is backed by a company founded by artificial intelligence. Of course, much of the previous investigation ended without fruition, and a significant faction inside the Review Meeting also believed that these were merely rumors, lies spread by the Conservative Faction to undermine the corporation.
Such is the current situation within the United Government. Even as corporations and families have started to be cautious of artificial intelligence, everything still inevitably moves towards an uncontrollable trajectory.
Even top hackers do their best to avoid the Deep Web, which is the epitome.
The internet was originally a tool created by human intelligence, but it eventually evolved into the domain of artificial intelligence. In that virtual world made up of data, they established a world beyond human reach. In the past, any hacker who tried to touch the data world eventually found their brains burnt to a crisp, unable to contain the explosive amount of information.
Cracking military technology’s firewall is essentially doing the same thing.
Fortunately, when Lu Xiang first encountered the "Sea of Souls," she had experience diving deep into the data world. She methodically avoided the roadblocks and traps set by artificial intelligence, getting closer step-by-step to the treasury sealed by data.
When she opened her eyes, it was already getting dark outside.
Deep Dive blurs the concept of time; in addition to specialized equipment, one also needs protection nearby.
Song Lan fully performed his duties as a "bodyguard," even preparing dinner during her deep dive.
It was still a fast-food restaurant’s meal box, inside was a hamburger still radiating heat.
The Judge went to a better place, the only benefit of this situation was that today there were no patrol teams loitering in front of them anymore.
Before their Master made a statement, this block would be peaceful for quite a long time.
Unexpectedly to everyone, the Master did not immediately respond to the situation. Some sources who wished to remain anonymous revealed that the Master was hosting an important guest and could not leave at the moment.
"Here, your favorite chicken leg burger."
Song Lan handed over the hamburger packaged by the "Emperor" to Lu Xiang, these were the results of his and RT6’s afternoon labor—having repaired the refrigerator system, the two who had nothing better to do spontaneously started a hamburger research interest group, and even impulsively helped the boss to expand the fast-food restaurant.
When delivering the hamburgers, Song Lan could see the "Emperor" was tireless. Under his guidance, this former strongest Six Stars Rescuer of the United Government finally understood the joy of a leisurely life.
Enjoying life is much better than fighting in arenas.
"Mmm."
Lu Xiang chewed with gusto. After a busy period, eating a steaming hot hamburger was also an important aspect of enjoying life.
"If the Review Meeting knew about the information in this computer, military technology would not be far from a major overhaul."
Although she was mentally prepared, the data displayed on the computer screen still shocked Lu Xiang, "Do you remember the person who previously invited you to help test Wild Bone’s performance?"
"I remember."
"She is a Modified Person arranged by artificial intelligence in the company."
The Judge’s computer data was not complete, mentioning only a small part of the story about this person in charge. Lu Xiang suspected that each Judge had different information and business dealings, and the arena was one of the sectors most closely linked with military technology. "The data says Zero once had an experimental accident and had to undergo full-body prosthesis modification, and even so, the chance of survival was very slim. It is estimated that the rebellious children of the Mechanical Mother seized the opportunity to act during that period."
To avoid the surveillance of the Review Meeting, their methods were very secretive, to the point that even Zero herself was unaware that her brain and thoughts had long been hijacked. But only in crucial decisions did the real Black Hand behind military technology control her thoughts.
Afterward, the related memories would be erased.
"It’s Zero who is responsible for the business dealings with the arena. This place is where they test their research results, take ’Overload Type IV’ for example. Before military technology officially decided to deploy it using Vadim, it had already been tested in the arena 61 times."
Lu Xiang paused, then continued, "It seems my premonition was not wrong, military technology has set up a military factory here just for you."
"For me?"
"To be precise, for your abilities. Unbeknownst to you, countless people in this world see you as a hypothetical adversary, tirelessly studying day and night... how does it feel, suddenly like you’re the final Boss?"
