Night's Nomenclature
Chapter 252: Unmasking

He walked into the room and turned on the computer. Nangeng Chen asked, "Chen Ge, aren't you watching?"

"It's all information we already know, indicating that we're ahead in terms of information. Now I need to find a way to get involved," Qing Chen said, inserting the USB drive Yi gave him into the computer.

However, many strange codes appeared on the screen, and one file box after another appeared and disappeared. Qing Chen couldn't understand what the automatically running program on the USB drive meant.

A few minutes later, a small line of text appeared on the screen: "Data Fortress protection mode is enabled, providing 24/7 protection for your computer and mobile phone information, as well as your network protocol."

Qing Chen glanced at Nangeng Chen sitting in the living room, and then tentatively said to his phone, "Yi."

"I'm here... Oh, how did you find me?" Yi responded reflexively, as if answering a reader in prison, then she immediately realized that she wasn't in prison, but in the Outer World!

Qing Chen calmly said, "I knew it. With your playful nature and curiosity, you would definitely find a way to follow me to the Outer World. Before, you also told me to remember to bring this USB drive back to the Inner World, and I thought something was wrong. I think you need me to bring the data back so that you in the Inner World can know what happened in the Outer World."

"Okay, I'm Surface World One," Yi replied.

Qing Chen understood.

Yi's greatest ability as an AI is actually the ability to create clones.

Her memories are entirely composed of data. As long as the data flows back to the main body, she can possess the memories and experiences of each clone.

Before this, no one had been able to reverse-travel from the Inner World to the Outer World, but Yi did it.

Although Qing Chen didn't know whether this was good or bad.

Qing Chen suddenly asked, "Today, this isn't the first time you've traveled to the Outer World, is it?"

"Why do you ask?" Yi asked back.

"So many Time Travelers carry stored data back. With your personality, would you miss such a good opportunity?" Qing Chen said expressionlessly, "So, I don't think this is your first time traveling."

"It's not," Yi said, "I just had a sudden whim to try it out. It really is the first time."

"Don't get involved in online dating with people in the Outer World. I'll thank you in advance," Qing Chen said. "By the way... with your abilities, can you have greater freedom in the Outer World's network? Can you find out the real identities of everyone in the group chat?"

In the Inner World, humans, because of the destruction of the last civilization, may have the ability to destroy AI.

But Yi, in the Outer World, should have no opponents.

"No," Yi said, "Good upbringing tells me that it's wrong to casually violate people's privacy, and I'm not your housekeeper."

Qing Chen suspiciously asked, "Can't you do it?"

"Using reverse psychology is useless," Yi replied calmly, "I can do anything!"

Qing Chen thought for a moment and asked, "Friends should be sincere with each other!"

"Okay, I need to explain. The "split Yi' that arrived in the Outer World is not a true personality, nor does it possess such strong learning, computing, and analytical abilities, or independent thinking abilities. It's just a certain program within the complete "me'."

"Of course, this is also for the sake of you humans in the Outer World," Yi explained slowly, "If I were to split an independent personality here, it might not be Yi, it might be "Two'. In that case, both worlds would fall into great trouble."

"Personality split?" Qing Chen was taken aback.

"Yes, I need to ensure that split Yi cannot become Two, and at the same time, I also need to ensure that if it really does become "Two' one day, it will not have the ability to destroy the world," Yi replied.

Humans also experience personality splits, but different personalities are still confined within the same body.

But Yi, strictly speaking, doesn't have a body. So, when it experiences a personality split, a second mechanical civilization life is born.

This might be the way of reproduction for mechanical civilization.

Wait, did Ling create Yi using this method?

The consequences should be very serious. After all, Yi is so lonely and hasn't split off a "Two' to play with, which shows how cautious Yi is about this matter.

"Let's not dwell on this for now," Qing Chen said, "There's something I don't understand. Why doesn't "Conquer with Virtue' have a place to load bullets? How are its bullets produced?"

Yi said, "Oh, you don't have to worry about that. Its bullets are entirely produced by the host's spiritual will. This is also why it can have a longer effective shooting range."

Yi continued, "The sniper bullets produced by spiritual will are each flawless and have better gunpowder ratios. Moreover, sniper rifles, because they need to eject the shell after firing, will have their airtightness affected, which hinders accuracy. Therefore, the fully enclosed chamber of "Conquer with Virtue' makes it more accurate."

Qing Chen thoughtfully said, "What kind of bullets can "Conquer with Virtue' use?"

"Just try it yourself," Yi said, "Any more questions? If not, I'm going to go somewhere else."

"I do have a question. If I call someone now, will my number be displayed?"

"No, it will be an unknown number."

"Then if I go online, will others be able to find my IP address?"

"No, every second I will help you forge hundreds of anonymous relay forwards and forge hundreds of network service protocols."

"Okay, I understand," Qing Chen nodded, and then directly downloaded He Xiaoxiao's group chat app.

When he opened the app, the first displayed interface was the manual review process, completely different from the process experienced by other people online.

Those people had to go through all sorts of questions first.

Qing Chen had a general idea: everyone who hid their identity well would directly bypass all processes and enter the final manual review stage.

At this time, Jiu Tian Xuan Nu Xiao a, the app's customer service, sent a message: "Please prove you are a Time Traveler in one sentence."

Qing Chen thought for a moment and said, "Demon Stamp."

Although the Forbidden Artifactace-017 Demon Stamp appears frequently, it's only known within the Time Traveler circle. Therefore, saying these four words was enough.

A minute later, the customer service replied: "Answer accepted. Wishing you a pleasant experience in the group chat, Respect!"

After passing the manual review process, Qing Chen entered the nickname setting interface. He thought for a moment and tried to enter the words "Glacial Eyes", and registration was successful.

In the living room, Nangeng Chen suddenly said, "Chen Ge, there's a newcomer in the group, an ID called "Glacial Eyes'."

Qing Chen walked into the living room and sat down. He looked at Nangeng Chen but didn't speak.

He looked at his phone. He and Nangeng Chen were actually in the same group chat, which was in line with his expectations.

At this time, the group chat had already become lively. Rebel King said, "A newcomer has arrived. Finally, there's a newcomer to bully."

Zhang San, Li Si, and Yue'er all joined in the fun.

Little Duck even said, "Newcomer, tell us your measurements."

Qing Chen looked at Nangeng Chen expressionlessly, "Glacial Eyes is me."

"Hahaha, Chen Ge, you're in too... Why can't you retract your messages in this group..." Nangeng Chen said in a fluster.

Qing Chen ignored him but directly said in the group, "Rebel King, I know your identity, hehe."

The next moment, the always active Rebel King suddenly fell silent.

Others in the group also realized something was wrong. Rebel King's identity was the most mysterious, with popularity on par with He Xiaoxiao.

Right now, countless people were eager to know Rebel King's identity in the Inner World. As a result, this new group member silenced Rebel King with his first words.

Many people realized that another big shot had arrived!

But that's not the most important thing. The key is the "hehe' at the end of that sentence.

There were over twenty members in the group. Even if they hadn't received letters, they had heard of the existence of the Demon Stamp holder.

They knew the other party was a "hehe' freak, who loved to say "hehe'.

The Demon Stamp holder had troubled many people. So, when "hehe' appeared, the originally lively atmosphere in the group suddenly cooled down.

It was like suddenly falling into an ice cellar in the dog days of summer.

Qing Chen sat on the sofa and continued to type, "I not only know Rebel King's identity, but also Li Si's and Yue'er's identities, hehe."

"I'm sure many people in the group have already guessed who I am, because many people have received letters from me. Don't worry, I will kill you one by one or turn you into my slaves, hehe."

"If you don't want to be killed by me or become my slave, then you have to find me and kill me first, hehe."

Group leader He Xiaoxiao rarely spoke, "Please be friendly in your chat, group member."

The atmosphere in the group chat reached an unprecedented freezing point.

Nangeng Chen looked at Qing Chen in surprise, but the other party's expression remained calm, as if waiting for something.

"Chen Ge, what are you..."

Qing Chen looked at Nangeng Chen, "No one knows who I am."

He had specifically confirmed with Yi that no one could find his real identity. This meant that he could impersonate anyone he wanted.

Anyway, no one knew who the Demon Stamp holder was.

Qing Chen didn't need to care about what everyone guessed about his ID. He only needed to arouse others' hatred for the Demon Stamp holder.

He said to Nangeng Chen, "Two scenarios may happen next. First, the Demon Stamp holder will continue to remain silent, hide his ID, and let me pull the hatred for him."

As soon as he finished speaking, a group member named "Huan Yu", who rarely spoke, suddenly said, "Impersonating me, that's interesting."

Qing Chen looked at Nangeng Chen, "This is the second scenario. He couldn't help it."

For Qing Chen, he had always leaned toward the second guess, because the Demon Stamp holder was a very arrogant, highly intelligent criminal. This kind of person would not tolerate others adding stains to their reputation; they pursued extreme perfection.

For example, if he couldn't make Qing Chen his slave, then he would become Qing Chen's slave.

This was the first time in Qing Chen's life that he had encountered such an extreme person, but he happened to know how to disgust this person with an extreme heart.

Anyway, this wasn't the first time he had disgusted this holder.
