Snort... Snort...

While Dewey was teaching Char hypnosis, the fluorescent lamp on the ceiling flickered on and off a few more times.

"The voltage is a little bit unstable." Dewey whispered.

"Hmm." Char nodded slightly, not paying attention.

"Is the voltage unstable?"

The Red Witch used her holographic bracelet to listen to the conversation between the two and couldn't help but let out a sneer.

It's no coincidence that the Oneiroi building suddenly lost power, and the underground backup power generation unit operated to supply power to the entire building!

It's an "event" that is bound to happen!

Not long ago, a group of hackers suddenly attacked the firewall of the Oneiroi Mansion in an attempt to take over the main computer!

They even attacked an electrical substation in a nearby neighborhood, triggering a major blackout.

More than a quarter of the neighborhoods of Hope City were affected and plunged into darkness.

For Hope City, a city that never sleeps, it is something that has never been done before.

The economic loss cannot be estimated for the time being, and the conservative estimate is that the loss is more than 100 million federal dollars.

"Hackers?" The Scarlet Witch sneered.

Unless it is a hacker of the great witch level like the hermit, he has the courage to openly attack the Oneiroi Building, causing a power outage, to shut down the firewall.

The wizards of Shadow Street have magical powers in the online world.

But in the real world, they're a bunch of timid people.

"Only the Federation dares to do this!" The Scarlet Witch knows very well that the Federation has gone to war against Oneiroi Mansion!

The trigger was the death of Lucy, a C-Class Federal Agent.

Federal hackers attack the Firewall in an attempt to find out what footage from yesterday's shooting range is and find out the real cause of Lucy's death.

Dr. Morpheus is a thoughtful, watertight and extremely difficult person to deal with.

All information related to Lucy, he has deleted!

A fierce battle that is invisible to the naked eye is quietly unfolding in the network.

In the end, the hackers of the Federation did not find the information they wanted and withdrew!

In this war without gunpowder, it was the Oneiroi group that temporarily won the victory!

Is the Dream God Group really the winner?

The Federation has completely set its sights on the Oneiroi Group and is determined to investigate the matter thoroughly.

Can the Oneiroi Group hide it for a while, can it be hidden forever?

From this point of view, the Oneiroi Group is also a loser.

Who is the winner, or beneficiary?

In the short term, there was only the Red Witch.

She got Lucy's information, and she sold it at a high price, and she could sell it to the Federation at a high price at any time for a huge profit.

"Are there any other beneficiaries?"

The Scarlet Witch listed all the forces one by one, and then eliminated them one by one.

She discovers an astonishing fact.

There is another beneficiary - Char!

Char had already fallen in love with the robot Ava, and could barely pass the "reality test" and become a dream builder.

Due to the riots caused by Lucy's death, federal hackers attacked the firewall, causing a blackout and the main computer rebooting, causing Ava's program to have a bug.

Char also turned around because of this, and luckily passed the test and obtained the qualification of Dream Builder.

None of this seems to be related. But judging from the results, Char did get a blessing in disguise and passed the test that he could not have passed.

"The Butterfly Effect!"

A word came to the Scarlet Witch's mind that shocked her.

What happened to Char was like a butterfly effect!

It's as if there is a big invisible hand, manipulating all this!

"Was it the hermit who arranged all this? Even my actions are in his calculations? I'm also his pawn? ”

The Red Witch suddenly felt a little cold, wrapped her clothes tightly, and came to the window.

"I don't know... Perhaps, I should have been a little more careful. The Confederation has stepped in... Sooner or later, Oneiroi Mansion will turn into a battlefield filled with gunpowder! Am I moving forward? Or backwards? The Red Witch looked up at the lead-gray sky.

Her gaze passed through the thick clouds, as if staring at the great being in the underworld, and chuckled, "Maybe you are great, but I don't believe you can guess my thoughts!" ”

.......

City of Sciences.

Under the gloomy sky, skyscrapers like stupas are lined up.

The largest "stupa in the middle of the city" is the famous headquarters of the Federation.

Robert, a young D-class agent, came to the archives with a nervous expression and said, "I'm Robert from the Second Age Research Division, and I need to look up some original copies of Kakule's diary due to my work. ”

Noll, the archivist of the archives, was a balding old man with reading glasses, he looked up at Robert and said lightly, "I have received your application report. You are a D-class agent, and with your authority, you can only inquire into Documents 4 and 7. Documents cannot be photocopied, photographed, or taken out in any form. If you violate the rules, I will report your actions to the Internal Affairs Department. You're going to be punished, you know? ”

"Understood." Robert hurriedly replied.

Knorr handed Robert two bronze keys and lowered his head, continuing to sort through the musty-smelling old materials.

Robert took a light breath, walked briskly to Filing Cabinet Four, inserted the key into it, and with a slight turn, the cabinet opened.

Confidential federal records are stored in the Archives Management Service in the form of paper documents.

This way of storing documents, while primitive, is effective.

Because no electronic form of storage can escape the pervasive intrusion of hackers.

Robert put on his white gloves and carefully flipped through the papers in Filing Cabinet Four, and soon found a page of Kakule's diary.

The surface of this page of the diary is covered with a plastic film to prevent sweat from eroding the old paper.

Kakule's diary is a precious antique, and even the slightest damage is an immeasurable loss.

Robert glanced left and right a few times, and the entire archive room was empty, and he was the only one.

He blinked quickly and filmed the contents of Kakule's diary with his iris camera.

The camera is the latest spy device, expensive and fitted like a contact lens to the surface of the user's eyeball, making it extremely discreet.

Robert then put Kakule's diary back in its place, opened Cabinet Seven, and photographed the same page of the diary.

After all this, Robert's forehead was already covered with beads of sweat, and he tried to suppress the tension in his heart, to keep himself as relaxed as possible, and returned to the door of the archives, and said to the old administrator, Noll, "I have checked those documents, thank you." ”

"Goodbye." Norton looked up, glanced deeply at Robert with cloudy eyes, lowered his head, and continued to sort through the papers.

Robert walked away briskly, and around a corner, his pace continued to pick up, and he rushed into the elevator as he fled.

Archives.

The old administrator, Noir, lowered his head and looked at Robert's panicked appearance from the screen under the desk.

At this time, a young administrator came out of the shadows and wondered: "Old man, didn't you find out that the D-class agent just now secretly took pictures of the documents, why don't you keep him!" Sent to the Internal Affairs Department? He may well be a spy! ”

"Spies?" Old Administrator Noll raised his head, glanced at his juniors, and said with a faint smile, "Don't underestimate a Sequence 4 Secretor!" Everything he did, it was in my view. ”

"Then why?" the young administrator was even more puzzled.

"The document he secretly photographed is a two-page undecipherable Kakule diary, and the level of secrecy is the lowest." Knoll picked up a cup of steaming black tea and said slowly.

"Even if it's the lowest level of paper, he's violating the rules, and you should be on business." The young administrator said with a straight face.

"Yes, he's a D-class agent. But don't forget, we have all the detectives' information in the Archives. Do you remember Robert's last name? Knorr's eyes suddenly sharpened and he asked.

"It's... Of course I don't remember. The young administrator shook his head.

"His surname is Merlin, Robert Merlin!" Knoll said in a low voice.

"Merlin... Could it be the Merlin family left over from the Second Age? Is he one of them? The young administrator froze.

"More than just a member, he is likely to be the third in line to the Merlin family. Hehe, for the sake of two documents with the lowest level of secrecy, to offend the heirs of the Merlin family! The gains outweigh the losses! ”

Er smiled like an old fox.
