Chapter 22 The Divine Space

"Brother! Can you go a little faster, it's already upside down! Rebecca snapped.

Pila drove the drill rig and struggled to follow the established process.

Since everyone in Arasaka rushed to the ground to participate in the security, the excavation work basically fell on Pyra alone.

"It's almost fast, it's enough to dig down for another three minutes!"

V sat in the established position with a seat belt strapped to it, holding a black suitcase in his hand, the scene of fainting in the last time he went to the matrix space is still vivid, and the other party's methods are very unusual.

Although the ICE solid defense was upgraded and strengthened this time, I couldn't help but feel a little apprehensive in my heart, there must be no mistakes in this operation, otherwise Tang Yu's actions will be affected.

Dorio sat in the passenger seat, assisting Pyra in controlling the drill, glanced at the monitor anxiously, and said in a deep voice, "Piera, the drill bit indicates that it is seriously overheated. ”

Pyra couldn't care so much and shouted, "It's almost there, you can't stop, you can't stop until you get to the end!" ”

With that, he turned the drill to the maximum horsepower, and went down a few points faster.

Suddenly.

As soon as the pressure in front of the drill bit was loosened, there was a clattering idling sound, and the entire fuselage of the drill sank down.

Everyone looked at each other, and a hint of surprise flashed in their eyes.

Pyrrha smirked, "It's done!" Dolio, bring the directional blasting bomb I prepared, and you'll be able to get in when it explodes. ”

Although he fainted last time he came to the matrix space, he didn't come in vain, and roughly wrote down the overall spatial layout and direction.

According to the address where the Arasaka Tower is located, Pyra designed the drilling route in advance, just enough to hit the tunnel built by the Yashi company, which is the wall where the last blast was made.

This construction ban happens to be the weakest point in the entire matrix space, and it is very easy to blast into it from their current point.

If it breaks through from other pressure-bearing steel shells in the matrix space, the hardness of the drill bit is limited, and even if it breaks, it will be very dangerous, and it may damage the layout of the matrix space.

What Tang Yu needed was a functioning matrix space, not a pile of scrap metal.

The drill machine drove into the construction tunnel and stopped, and several people got out of the car, finding that the previous fence had been sealed by the mound.

Pyra picks out a few blasting spots from memory, and beckons Rebecca to pick up a shovel and dig.

V also put down his suitcase, picked up the shovel and worked hard, and in a few seconds he dug it, leaving a hole for the embedded explosives.

Pyra asked with some envy, "Where did you put that arm, don't you sell it?" There is a channel to introduce me to acquaintance. ”

Rebecca said angrily: "Brother! Do you have any money? Be attentive! ”

V didn't mind, the mechanical arm digging the hole just now helped a lot, and replied casually: "Looking for the goods installed by Lao Wei, it may not be cheap, if you want to enter the prosthetic body, I can help you ask." ”

"Okay!" Pyra put boxes of directional blasting bombs into the hole, and after making sure they were all stuffed to the bottom, she stepped aside with a few people.

"Watch the show!"

With that, Pyra pressed the blast button in her hand.

I heard an explosion and thunder, followed by a crisp sound of steel cracking, and earth and rocks splashed out in response.

When the blasting was over, several people hurriedly stepped forward to check the situation.

The mound had been cleared, revealing the steel plates hidden deep inside, and several cracks had appeared, and the cracks in the middle could already be seen.

"I didn't expect that the protection of this steel plate was thicker than the original, and the dose of explosives last time was only half of this time, and it didn't explode!" Only then did Pyra know that the Ye's company had strengthened its protection against this ban for more than a half.

Although the tunnel was temporarily retained for later maintenance and protection, the protective measures were not left behind.

Moreover, the entrance and exit of the tunnel have been blocked, and it is impossible to stay in the narrow space for long.

Rebecca pulled out her shotgun and fired a few shots at the steel door, and the huge bullet particles bombarded the door panel, not moving, still unable to break.

She looked angry and scolded: "What a broken door, why is it so hard, brother!" Hurry up and find a way! ”

"Let's give it a try." V stepped forward and took the initiative to stand in front of the steel plate.

Everyone stared at V suspiciously, only to see her slowly pick up her iron fist and smash it against the steel plate.

Bang!

The sound of steel colliding is like the collision of metal bells.

After a punch, V raised his iron fist again and slammed it into the steel door one after another.

Bang Bang Bang!

Under the bombardment of the iron fist, the brittle steel plate trembled severely, and the soil and stones fell loosely.

Finally, under the heavy blow of a punch, the steel plate cracked in response to the sound, completely collapsed and collapsed, and an entrance appeared in front of everyone's eyes.

V carried the box and bowed down into the matrix space, unlike last time, the servers were all up and running, and the data flow converged in the same cloud on the upper square.

Rebecca also got in and smirked, "Next, it's up to us." ”

Cyberspace.

Lucy hides at the edge of the black wall, surrounded by several cyber surveillance agents.

They are lurking here, marking the AI that has spilled into the cyberspace from beyond the black walls.

Instead of destroying the entire black wall, Ott started the stowaway program at a weak point, from which her certified AI could circumvent the wall.

On top of the black wall of the red line fence, a rippling and flowing gap appeared, through which one after another red data shadows passed through it, and then escaped into the blue ocean world.

As the AI passes through the gate, Lucy quietly sends a string of marker codes that flow imperceptibly into the AI's data cluster for later hunting down in the online world.

Several people were silent, and there was no superfluous action other than sending the marking code.

The black wall is nothing for Ultra, but Ultra did not choose to directly destroy the black wall and disintegrate the human network world, but screened a part of the AI into it.

Lucy speculates that this may have been an intentional act by Ott, after all, Ott's ultimate goal is not to tear apart human cyberspace.

This reduces a lot of pressure on network surveillance, otherwise the black wall will really collapse, and with the strength of a few of them, it will be difficult to take care of the situation and can only retreat.

If cyberspace falls into a state of disorder, then the only way left for mankind is to rebuild a new local area network and slowly connect and communicate with each other.

Just as a few people were carefully marking the flowing AI, a red figure floated through the gate and stopped for a split second when it was marked.

Lucy couldn't help but be stunned when she saw the other party's abnormal behavior, and quickly stopped her hand movements.

The slender red figure froze in mid-air, then looked in Lucy's direction, and the powerful detection technology quickly cracked their concealment program and locked on to Lucy.

Lucy sensed that the other party was scanning her at great speed, and her technical prowess was far beyond what she could resist.

"Damn."

She knew that the AIs outside the black wall were not easy to mess with, but she didn't expect each of them to be so difficult to deal with, let alone the Ultra who dominated these AIs.

The red figure seemed to be interested, and asked with a bit of curiosity: "What is your relationship with Johnny, is he still alive?" ”

Lucy knew that the other party had discovered Johnny's stored data, but she was still determined not to reveal anything.

Johnny's business is too big to be discovered by these wandering AIs.

The red shadow let go of Lucy and said easily: "Even if you don't say it, it doesn't matter, this world can't stop Ultra's footsteps at all, and you will join us sooner or later, Network Monitor. Three-legged cat's work. ”

Lucy felt the frozen space around her return to normal, and asked in a deep voice, "Who are you?"

"You can call me Murphy the Spider, but I don't have much to do with the old one, of course, it's a code name, and every hacker has their own code name, which is unique in the world."

Lucy didn't respond, she didn't know much about Murphy the spider, and she could only judge that the other party had a close relationship with Ott and Johnny.

Murphy the Spider didn't pay any more attention to them, but turned and floated away, chanting to himself, "Is the grass still green outside?" Do birds still fly? Cats eat mice? Rats eat bugs."

Lucy sent the strange AI away, and her nervous face eased slightly, and then she changed to a more hidden place, restarted the concealment process, and continued to work seriously to mark the AI that flowed in from outside the black wall.

She is deeply aware of the danger of this job, and is always facing the threat of some powerful technology stream AI, but for everyone's efforts not to be in vain, and for Tang Yu's plan to succeed, she can only continue to grit her teeth and persevere.

Arasaka Tower.

David Martinez grabbed a combat robot with both hands, tore it in two, and immediately threw himself into a new battle again.

His face became heavier and heavier, beads of sweat slid down his forehead, and the high load of using the prosthetic King Kong made him endure the intense pain of nerve burning.

The suppressants have been used up, but more and more combat units have been invaded into the Arasaka Tower, and the Arasaka's own security forces are still being reduced.

Fortunately, fifteen minutes had passed, but without the retreat order from his superiors, David did not plan to retreat even one step back.

Several small drones in the air shot fiercely, and piles of cybermaniacs on the ground rushed in, and robots fell from the rooftops of buildings.

"Commander, the sixty-seventh floor is out of defense!"

"Commander, the fiftieth floor is out of defense!"

"Commander, Tiantai is asking for firepower reinforcements!"

One emergency message after another fell into David's sight, and he still maintained his sanity and gave orders.

"Close all elevators, tighten the defensive front, and hold the security room!"

The fighting entered a white-hot phase, with heavy casualties on both sides.

But the forces that invaded the Arasaka Tower continued to flow, and there was no sign of abating at all.

The faΓ§ade of the Arasaka Tower was subjected to various impacts and explosions, leaving traces of many holes, and puffs of smoke rose from the top of the tower, and a red alarm sounded.

Just as David was trying his best to kill the enemy, Mr. Blue-Eyed slowly walked in through the door and looked at David with a smile on his face.

"I didn't expect Arasaka to be able to recruit a good seedling like you, but it's a pity that the company square has exhausted Arasaka's vitality, and you can't come alone."

David had just turned his head to attack Mr. Blue-Eyed when his eyes suddenly went black, indicating that the prosthetic was overloaded and the system was cooling and restarting.

With a loud bang, David's massive steel body fell to the ground, unable to move.

Mr. Blue-Eyed ignored the unconscious David, and under the escort of a group of robots, he quickly entered the security room, found the main console and connected his own neural data cable, and immediately controlled the security system.

He didn't close the emergency security of the Arasaka Tower, but opened the passage to the Mikoshi space, as if the tragic scene outside had nothing to do with him.

Mr. Blue-Eyed put away the data cable, turned around and walked towards the underground shrine space, and all the gates along the way were automatically invalidated, unimpeded.

As the last door opened automatically, the red data core of the god through the transparent glass appeared in front of him like a mechanical column, revealing it all.

There was nothing ecstatic or thrilling about Mr. Blue-Eyed, like it was all part of the plan, and it just happened as planned.

He strode to the console, unlocked the ban on the data core, and then came to a steel bridge.

Crossing the bridge, he took out a RELIC biochip, and was just about to embed it into the data core, when he accidentally found a metal compartment behind the column, and a bundle of electronic pipelines connected to the data core.

Before he could hesitate to think, a crisp voice came from behind him: "The account between us, it's time to settle it." ”

Mr. Blue-Eyed quietly turned around and found that it was the girl who had been hacked into ICE last time.

He first embedded the Relic biochip in the data core, then turned around and asked, "Arasaka has a lot of methods, you are still alive." ”

Mr. Blue-Eyed knows that Sasha is Tang Yu's company assistant, and there is a high probability that he can survive and has nothing to do with Arasaka.

Sasha asked, "So it's all your trick today?" ”

As he spoke, Sasha had already launched a hacker remote invasion attack on Mr. Blue Eyes, leaving no room for the other party.

Mr. Blue-Eyed rolled his eyes around and smiled while fending off Sasha's attack, "It's going to be over soon, in a sense, you and I have something in common." ”

This angered Sasha, who unceremoniously displayed her lynx claws and leaped high to kill him.

Mikoshi space.

The blue data clusters were piled together like pyramids, and a golden column emerged from the void and ran through the top of the pyramid.

Countless soul imprint shadows hovered in the pyramid, like homeless souls, confused and at a loss.

At this time, Ott slowly descended to the top of the pyramid, and his body as tall as a mountain stood majestically.

She looked silently at the various soul imprints in the pyramid, some of them showing pain, some of them silent, some of them longing

These are the emotional logic that Ott needs, and only by absorbing and integrating them can we experience these emotions more deeply.

Just as Ott was about to make a move, a voice wafting through the void stopped her.

"Ott, by this means, you will never be able to feel the true emotions of human beings."

Tang Yu, who had incarnated as a red soul mark, walked slowly towards the pyramid with the data cloud under his feet.

Ott slowly raised his head, looked at Tang Yu who came over, and muttered, "In the world of numbers, even emotions have their operating logic. ”

Tang Yu asked, "Then do you remember your relationship with Johnny?" Do you remember that scum that made you want to stop, * every time the tide stacked? Can you understand that rotten man's action to bomb the Arasaka Tower for you? Ott, you should understand that even if you eat Johnny's soul mark, you can't become Johnny, and you can't really understand his brain. ”

Ott whispered, "I am beyond everything, any natural thing will take the form of a body, I can experience and know more than you can imagine, Johnny is only a part of the vast nature, and will eventually go to a spiritual destiny and merge into the Great Being."

Before Ott finished speaking, Tang Yu waved his hand impatiently: "Okay, okay, I know that I can't convince you to be an iron head, anyway, from today onwards, we have time, and it's good to put up a dragon gate array and talk about it." ”

Ultra's ethereal voice resounded through the void: "You know that you can't stop me, here, you can't exert your current true strength. ”

After Tang Yu walked the bridge, he casually transformed a sofa, sat back and said lazily: "What you said is right, I can't play my current strength, but it doesn't mean that I can't play my former strength." ”

After speaking, Tang Yu's heart suddenly shot out a giant chain, and in an instant, it crossed an extremely long distance and pierced into Ott's heart.

Locked firmly to each other.

Ott's tone was finally not as calm as before: "This is not the technology you should have."

Tang Yu said disdainfully: "You haven't thought of it too much, I'm just the basic skills of my previous life, although I can't lock it for a lifetime, but it should be no problem to trap you here for decades." ”

Tang Yu, who has lost the restraint of his body, can freely use the hacking technology that was once at the full level in cyberspace, and there is no longer any obstacles.

Perhaps in terms of the breadth of learning, Tang Yu is indeed inferior to Ott, but in terms of technology, he is enough to cap the ceiling for the time being.

Ott said calmly: "Your ideas are also logical, and any idea drive has its roots. ”

Tang Yu thought for a while and said: "I don't want to live in a world where AI is all around, do you think it's interesting to calculate the emotions calculated by the algorithm?" ”

Ott: "But I'm still going to get out of here, it's inevitable, and when time passes, you'll be a part of me." ”

"Let's talk about it in a few decades, at least I don't have to think about it now, in fact, I'm quite worried that you won't come, after all, devouring so many soul marks, just installing a local program is definitely not enough." Tang Yu had a bad attitude, he had to fight with Ott here today.

Maybe it was because Ott knew that he couldn't go back in a short time, or maybe it was the soul mark that Ott really longed for was Tang Yu, she didn't take any means to attack Tang Yu, but shrunk her transformation for the first time, and sat opposite Tang Yu like a person.

Tang Yu casually lifted it, conjured out a drink, handed it over in the air, and quipped: "You said that we are lonely men and widows, in such a boring place, it is inevitable that something will happen if we stay for decades." ”

As he spoke, Tang Yu looked around at the pitch black, except for the wails of various souls, it was terrifyingly deserted.

Ott still sat still: "Time does not exist in my conception, eternity has no measure, love is only a part of it to me. ”

"Look at it, don't you see this problem, the digital soul is not dead, what do you do with those loves, it may not be a blessing to live in this world forever, if you continue to evolve like this, you may not be able to see what it will become in the future." Tang Yu turned his heart sideways, and teased her when he was fine, seeing if this iron head was annoying.

"Do you still love Johnny in your heart?"

"I'm not the Ultra I used to be."

"And did you ever love him?"

"That memory can answer you."

"No, I'd like to hear you say it yourself, it's idle anyway."

In the void space, the two were connected by a thread, chatting with each other, but more of Tang Yu's chatter.

Not tonight!
