Jingle bells...

With the crisp sound of wind chimes, the white-hatted and white-robed hermit appears in the wizard's bar.

"Honorable Hermit..."

Bob, the bartender, greets Char with a smile on his face as he always stands.

A red witch in a red wizard's robe followed and appears at the wizard's bar.

When Bob saw the Red Witch, his originally vivid expression suddenly became dull, and his eyes flashed green.

"Warning! Artificial intelligence has been detected intruding into Shadow Street! ”

"Warning! Turn on Eviction Mode! ”

Bob made an icy system sound.

His figure flashed, and he left the bar, appearing in front of the Scarlet Witch out of thin air.

Bang!

Bob's right hand tightened his grip on the Scarlet Witch's slender neck, slamming her body against the wall.

Yes!

It's the first time the wizards in the bar have seen Bob leave the bar, and it's also the first time they've seen Bob take the initiative to attack!

The target of his attack is the Red Witch!

For a moment, everyone didn't know what was going on.

Char was also stunned by Bob's behavior, and he quickly reacted and rushed to Bob, grabbed Bob's strong arm, and tried to put the Red Witch down.

But Bob's arm was like steel poured out, and it didn't move.

The Red Witch's face was pale, and she looked like she was about to be strangled to death by Bob.

"Stop, Bob! Stop your hurtful behavior! Char yelled at Bob.

The bartender Bob Mu Ran turned his face and looked at Char, his voice cold and stiff: "Hermit-sama, I am doing my duty. Any AI invading Shadow Street, I must banish it! Unless... You use your authority to get her immunity. Please note that you have only one of your three exemptions, so use it sparingly. ”

"Excuse! I use my immunity! Char hurriedly said loudly.

"I'm sorry, dear lady, but I didn't know you were a friend of the Great Witch. Please forgive me for my offensive. ”

Bob then let go of his arm, put the Red Witch on the ground, bowed slightly to her, and said in a rather gentlemanly manner.

"Ahem, cough, cough..."

The Scarlet Witch coughed violently, and it took a while for her face to return to normal.

By this time, Bob was back behind the bar, wiping his glass as if nothing had happened.

"I've long thought something was wrong with this guy... It turns out that he is the firewall of Shadow Street. Once there is a hack, or an illegal artificial intelligence breaks in, he will be expelled by Bob. In the most serious case, he will even be wiped out by him! ”

The Red Witch poured herself a glass of red wine on the wine table, and looked at the black bartender behind the bar with trepidation.

Artificial intelligence is also going to die.

Especially in the face of more powerful artificial intelligence.

"There are also many dangers in the online world, and I have to be careful." The Scarlet Witch felt her own insignificance.

"Hermit-sama, thank you."

The Scarlet Witch thanked Char from the bottom of her heart, "If you hadn't used your immunity, I wouldn't have been able to enter Shadow Street. ”

"Don't forget, we're friends." The corners of Char's mouth moved slightly, and she chuckled.

Bob's words just now made Char a little concerned.

The Great Witch has a total of three exemptions, which allow three AIs to enter Shadow Street.

Three exemptions, Char used all of them.

In addition to the Red Witch, Char also used immunity on two AIs before losing his memory.

Who are they?

Where are you now? Still on Shadow Street?

Char couldn't remember it at all.

But Char has a feeling that these two artificial intelligences are crucial to him!

The Scarlet Witch can't wait to open her account, take out the Shadow Coins, and exchange them for Federation Coins on the Black Market.

"Oh my God! Why is my account empty? ”

After the Scarlet Witch opened her account, her expression instantly froze.

"Empty?"

Char frowned slightly, and said, "The account password of the Red Witch, you shouldn't have leaked it to others." ”

"I... I... I certainly didn't leak it to anyone. The Red Witch's face turned red, and she was completely calm.

The money was earned by the Scarlet Witch for hard work.

In reality, the bank account was frozen by the Federation, and the Red Witch could only admit bad luck.

Shadow Street's account was also emptied, and the Scarlet Witch couldn't bear it.

"It has to be Bob..."

The Scarlet Witch stood up, rolled up her sleeves, and was about to find Bob's theory.

But Bob's eyes flashed green, and the Red Witch shuddered like a mouse seeing a cat, and sat back in her seat, shrunk her head, and said, "Hermit... Can you help me ask Bob why the money in my account is gone? ”

"I'll help you ask."

Char nodded, went to the bar, and asked Bob, "Bob, the Scarlet Witch said that the Shadow Coins in her account are missing. ”

Bob smiled, the same cold face as when he faced the Red Witch, and said respectfully, "Hermit, due to your use of immunity, all of the Red Witch's information has been reset. ”

"Data reset?" Char scratched his head, speechless.

The Scarlet Witch is also miserable, the real account has been frozen, and the account on Shadow Street has been reset.

"Can you get it back?" Char still has a glimmer of hope.

"Hermit-sama, resetting data is a common thing, so don't worry about it. As long as the iris and DNA information of the Red Witch can be provided, it can be retrieved. Bob laughed.

"Is there any other way?" Char asked.

"Nope." Bob replied with a smile.

Char soaked hard for a while, and was sure that the Red Witch's account could not be recovered, so he had to return to the wine table and tell her the bad news under the Red Witch's hopeful gaze.

"This is obviously bullying the old lady! I make so much money, is it easy..."

The Red Witch was stunned, and at the thought of her savings being in vain, she couldn't help but cover her face and cry bitterly.

"Miserable... It's really miserable. But... You're alive. As long as you live, there is hope. It's really not good, I'll lend you some money first, and I won't charge interest. Char couldn't help but feel distressed when she saw the red witch crying pear blossoms with rain.

"Who is going to lend your money! I... I can earn it myself! ”

The Red Witch is the Red Witch after all, she quickly stopped sobbing, looked at Bob and gritted her teeth, and said viciously: "How much money did you swallow the old lady!" The old lady has to earn it back with interest! ”

"By the way, I've always wondered about one thing. Why do you hunt hermits? Char was silent for a while, and when she saw that the Red Witch seemed to come out of her grief, she asked in a low voice.

"Quite simply, on the one hand, to satisfy my vanity. I'm going to prove myself. On the other hand, I'm unhappy with the current state of Shadow Street! Bob, the artificial intelligence, is the bridge between wizards. Wizards risk their lives to find information, selling the truth from Bob and exchanging it for Shadow Coins, which they can then use to buy the information they need. It was supposed to be a virtuous circle. However, Shadow Street has existed for too long, and as long as it is artificial intelligence, there are loopholes. Some scheming wizards have discovered these vulnerabilities by using big data to deceive and pin false advertising messages to the top. Really valuable information is drowned in advertising information. ”

Over time, Bob's function became an ornament. Wizards form small circles with each other, bypassing Bob and trading privately, becoming less and less liquid, and eventually, Shadow Street will become a stagnant pool. Wizards will also leave here in search of a better platform! The Federation has no choice but to do anything about Shadow Street! Realm of wizards! In the end, it will be ruined in the hands of advertisers. ”

"And it's your responsibility! Great Witch Hermit! Only you have the authority to clear Shadow Street and bring it back to life! ”

The Red Witch's beautiful light red eyes stared at Char and said slowly.
