Chapter 291: Stealing
The "Extraterritorial Wanderer", whose essence is unknown, whose purpose is unknown, and whose life form is unknown, is an extremely mysterious unknown life form, and it is speculated that it has special abilities such as traveling through the world, resurrection, and living in a sojourn shell, but it cannot be confirmed for the time being.
According to the information available, there are multiple instances of the Extraterritorial Wanderer, but only one instance enters the real world at a time.
The purpose and behavior patterns of the Extraterritorial Wanderers are difficult to understand, they sometimes save the world, sometimes they do the opposite, but in almost all cases, they show great strength and growth—they are almost destined to influence the trajectory of a world, or even completely change the course of the world, but the reason for their actions is difficult to determine.
The mental structure of the Wanderers is unknown, and it is not known for sure if they have the same emotions as humans, or if they experience emotional fluctuations as they travel through the world, save or destroy the world, but it is inferred from the available information that they at least have the ability to "simulate" these emotional reactions and thus completely hide them in the crowd.
Due to their aforementioned abilities and their ability to lurk in human shells, it is almost impossible for anyone to see through the camouflage of an alien wanderer from the physical eye and psychological analysis......
We have now determined that the resurrected Duke Gawain Cecil is an "extraterritorial wanderer" who occupies a human shell, but in view of the peculiarities of the extraterritorial loiter, it is forbidden for anyone to come into contact with him rashly, but he should be followed for a long time......
It is advisable to teach fellow citizens to take the following steps to keep themselves safe when they come into contact with a target in certain unavoidable circumstances......
Gawain felt that he had rarely been in such a state of confusion since he had crossed over - the last time he was so confused was when he climbed out of a coffin, there was a great-granddaughter on the N+1 floor who had just knocked him with a stick......
"What a mess is this...... Gao Wen looked at the information that was publicly released in the psychic network, and his heart worked for a long time before he finally matched it with the mixed cut MV he left for the cultists last time, "Is this the brain supplement produced by the difference in world view......"
But after a brief period of consternation, he still had to admit that this unfolding was reasonable.
In this world, there is only one person who has been brainwashed by the information explosion, and an earth traveler will think of Hollywood, the situational stage, and the tricky show when he sees that bizarre scene, but what will a local with normal three views think of when he sees that kind of thing?
Of course, it is according to their three views to make up for the brain - not to mention that the Eternal Sleeper is still a group of cultists, is there any creature in the world that is better at using the brain to make up for itself than the cultist?
Well, there is, for example, the 25th Production and Construction Brigade that was established just a while ago or something......
"That's fine...... The effect is better than expected at the beginning," Gao Wen closed this part of the information with a smile, but there was some comfort in his heart, "In this way, you shouldn't have to worry about the problem of the Eternal Sleeper in a short time." ”
Then he let go of his mind and began to search for information more widely in the psychic network.
Unlike the last time they entered this world, this time the Eternal Sleepers obviously opened the dream world after full preparation, and this is no longer a "trial run" space, but has a higher degree of completion, just a little retrieval of the surface of the mind network, Gawain discovered this.
There is a huge amount of information circulating in the psychic network, and there is an astonishing amount of data exchange in places that cannot be seen by the naked eye, and there are many unencrypted things that are being calculated and evolved in this network, and new nodes are always joining in, and there are nodes being logged out and leaving the network all the time.
If the last time I saw the dream world was just an internal "test server" running only a few tests of code, now the network has entered the stage of official use - the Sleepers are starting to use it for real instances.
Of course, this "magic network" based on spiritual spells is completely different from the World Wide Web known to Gawain, and the data circulating in it is completely new in terms of structure and principle, but in any case, it is a fact that this network has entered a working state.
It's just that Gawain doesn't see much from those huge data exchanges - although he has permissions, and those data are not encrypted, but the sheer size and disorganization of that data is the best encryption in itself, just as humans can't directly see the computer bitmap from a large number of 0s and 1s, and Gawain doesn't know what is behind those huge calculations - probably only the initiators of those calculations themselves can "see" what the result looks like.
But it doesn't matter, Gawain himself doesn't intend to see through all the secrets of the Eternal Sleeper in this way, he just looks for the access to the data and understands the laws of these data exchanges in the process.
Seem...... Can you make trouble?
After a little preparation, he moved himself from the surface layer of the network to the data exchange layer, and then immersed himself in it.
His senses were turned upside down in one moment, but regrouped in the next, and when the scene in front of him calmed down a little, he found that his surroundings had completely changed.
He stood on a flat, open surface of water with subtle ripples, which was incomparably wide and boundless, and above the water was a clear blue sky with no celestial light sources but rather bright.
He lowered his head and saw that the surface of the water he was stepping on was like a layer of transparent glass, and beneath that was a world of wild sand, with countless tiny things surging, reorganizing, dying and regenerating in the space below the water, and there seemed to be an endless storm that would tear apart those who strayed into it at any moment.
“…… Is that the underlying data environment of the psychic network...... It's okay to mess up......"
Gawain frowned and muttered to himself, then raised his head and set his gaze on the endless water.
What he saw was not a real scene (and of course, nothing in this spiritual world itself was real), but a "virtual environment" that Gawain had constructed in his own brain using the knowledge he had devoured, similar to the imaginary space created by the Eternal Sleeper when he was pulled into his dreams—of course, it was still a blank space because it had just been created by Gawain.
In the process of digging around in the psychic network of the Eternal Sleeper, Gawain was not without gain, he had roughly figured out how to use the "data interfaces" here, and he began to try to use these data interfaces to do something, rather than simply using it as a browser to query information.
After the establishment of this space, Gawain had already determined one thing:
The computing power allocation mechanism of this mental network is indeed flawed.
It seems that the Sleepers didn't even think that someone would come to their background to steal computing power, and their computing power distribution has almost no security measures at all, and the entire system only has a general division of permissions, but this permission system does not limit the amount of computing power that each node can "borrow" from computing power......
Is this forgetting this when designing? Or do the sleepers feel that the network will always have enough computing power to do so that there is no need to limit it at all?
Gawain didn't know, but he could understand - after all, this was something that had just been born for a long time, just like the earliest computer systems of humans on Earth, rudimentary and full of vulnerabilities were inevitable, but even if they were so rudimentary that they were full of vulnerabilities, no one could deny the greatness of these early products.
Gawain began to refine the virtual space little by little, connecting it to the data ports of the psychic network, using the knowledge he had devoured from the cultist of the Eternal Sleeper, but the thoughts he had had in constructing it came from a Earth traveler.
This means that he is not only able to use the Eternal Sleeper's technology to construct an additional "space" in the "crack" of the Eternal Dream, but also encrypts this space so that the Eternal Sleeper cannot detect it.
Gawain sat down on the flat "water", recalling the knowledge he had devoured and trying to make it happen, while beside him, the entire space of heaven and water was quietly changing.
Clouds gradually appeared in the empty sky, and then the clouds turned into stars, and the rain fell from the sky and turned into a gentle wind before it touched the water, and the surface of the water itself, which was cut off from the data layer of the psychic network, was also changing, sometimes rippling, sometimes appearing on land, sometimes freezing into solid ice......
But these are superficial changes, and the real deep changes cannot be visually captured - Gawain is setting up encryption between this space and the connection of the psychic network to ensure that the part of the resources he has stolen will not be discovered by the cultists.
"Disperse the flow of data across the psychic network and distribute it in real time based on the real nodes in the network that are performing connections...... Distribute all computing pressure and storage space usage to each node......
"Establish digital keys that can be refreshed at any time, and all data exchanged between them and the psychic network is encrypted and disguised......
"Mapping the wrong address, each time using a different node characteristic to establish the connection......
"There are multiple layers of jumps, and the connection to the psychic network is executed through multiple springboards, which are the node crystals in the Dream City, which are essentially open data interfaces......
"Prepare a few fake feature codes, hang them on the data boundary, and throw them out as bait if they are really discovered.
"This should be able to fool those cultists and their upper and lower eighteen generations......"
Gawain had all the possible encryption schemes in his mind, and used them little by little for the space he had newly created - at this time, he couldn't help but be especially grateful for the convenience of magic, especially the convenience of the "dream spells" developed by the Eternal Sleepers based on the primitive dream magic, he could build what he wanted at a very fast speed, without having to sit in front of an input device and type out code.
Of course, his efficiency is not only due to the convenience of magic, but also because the psychic network is really a useful thing - the connection at the spiritual level makes the efficiency of "human-computer interaction" to an unbelievable degree, basically as long as this network can react, as long as Gawain's brain can react, then everything he conceives will be realized immediately after the conception.
Gradually, this encrypted space hidden in the depths of the psychic network of the Eternal Sleeper, which belongs exclusively to Gawain, took shape.
