263. Information Life
There are many ways to defuse a bomb.
Completely burned the bomb into nothingness with supernatural flames, and Roy should be the first one.
Although this method of defusing bombs may seem a little unreasonable, it is normal for supernatural flames to be unreasonable.
If a supernatural flame is as common sense as a normal flame, then it is not a supernatural flame.
Roy didn't expect that the Star Fire would defuse the first bomb so easily.
Although it was a bit of a surprise, he was very satisfied with the result.
After confirming that this method of defusing the bomb was feasible, he wasted no more time and began to defuse the other bombs in the auditorium.
Little by little, time passed.
In less than three minutes, he defused all 50 C4 bombs inside and outside the auditorium.
The terrorists in the auditorium would never have imagined that someone would defuse all the bombs placed in every corner under their noses.
They would not have imagined that they were also Roy's support personnel in defusing the bomb.
Without the sight they provided, Roy wouldn't have been able to manipulate the Constellation Fire so precisely to burn the bombs into nothingness.
After disarming all the bombs, Roy sent Diana a text message informing Diana of the progress on her side.
After seeing the text message he sent, Diana was a little stunned for a while.
Is it so efficient?
If someone else was texting now, Diana would have been a little skeptical that the other person was joking with her.
But Roy is the exception.
While Roy wasn't a good guy in the worldly sense, Diana knew that he wasn't the kind of person who would ignore other people's lives.
What's more, Roy will come across as reliable.
Without any hesitation, Diana immediately replied to Roy with a text message asking him what to do next.
The bomb was defused, but the terrorists in the auditorium were still there.
If they had shot at the students, it would have resulted in a lot of casualties.
As soon as the message was sent, she received a reply from Roy.
Nailed it?
Diana looked at Roy's reply with a surprised expression.
Although Roy didn't say how he managed to get rid of the terrorists, after seeing the text message, Diana knew that it was time to free the students in the auditorium.
Auditorium.
Somewhat contrary to Diana's thoughts, Roy did not kill the terrorists in the auditorium.
He simply used the power of the mind to freeze these terrorists and temporarily deprived them of their ability to act.
In the process of defusing the bomb just now, Roy found that with his current mental power and control ability, he could completely fix hundreds of people at a time.
Although he didn't really try, he trusted his own judgment.
So, after receiving a text message from Diana asking what to do next, he immediately gave it a try.
There were no surprises, and the result was exactly what he had imagined.
When he invaded the hearts of these terrorists with his psychic powers, he clearly took over the control of the terrorists' bodies.
On the surface, the terrorists stood in different areas of the auditorium, watching over the students in the auditorium.
But in reality, they are no different from puppets now.
Roy can now easily manipulate these terrorists to shoot himself with the slightest movement of his mind.
Soon, Diana, dressed in a Wonder Woman uniform, arrives at the door of the auditorium.
Glancing at the light blue energy barrier blocking in front of her, Diana didn't hesitate and directly pulled out the Vulcan sword.
Vulcan's sword!
A sword forged by Hephaestus, the god of fire in Greek mythology.
Although it appears to be just an ordinary metal longsword, the Vulcan Sword has subatomic level slashing capabilities.
In other words, most of the objects on Earth are as fragile as cream cakes in front of the Vulcan Sword.
Although the Vulcan Sword is not a magic sword, it is completely sufficient to deal with the energy barrier in front of it.
I saw Diana holding the sword in one hand and gently swinging it towards the energy barrier in front of her.
In the next second, a conspicuous crack appeared in the energy barrier that was sufficient to withstand the attacks of artillery shells and missiles.
Soon, though, the rift in the energy barrier began to heal.
Within seconds, the rift was completely gone, as if it had never existed.
Obviously, this energy barrier in front of Diana has a very good ability to heal itself.
Realizing this, Diana took a deep breath and swung the Vulcan Sword again.
This time, instead of slashing out only one sword like just now, she slashed out five or six swords in an instant.
In the blink of an eye, a rift appeared in front of her that was large enough to accommodate her passage.
Without waiting for the rift to recover, she walked in without saying a word.
Subsequently, it appeared in the auditorium.
After seeing Diana come to the auditorium with the Vulcan sword, the students in the auditorium immediately erupted in loud cheers.
Although they didn't know how Diana got in, the moment they saw Diana, the fear that enveloped them disappeared.
As the students cheered, Diana quickly surveyed the terrorists around the auditorium.
As she watched, the terrorists pulled out their pistols from their tactical belts and pointed them at their heads.
Not only Diana, but also the other students in the auditorium noticed the strangeness of these terrorists.
Just when they were curious about what these terrorists wanted to do, they were manipulated by Roy and decisively pulled the trigger.
Bang bang......
Gunshots rang out incessantly.
One after another, the terrorists fell to the ground.
Although it was not a particularly good thing to manipulate a terrorist to commit suicide in front of a group of students, Roy did it anyway.
If nothing else, just to teach these students a lesson and let them witness death up close.
When the gunfire stopped completely, the students in the auditorium finally reacted and let out one scream after another.
Half an hour later.
Cafe outside Metropolitan University.
Diana, who had changed back into her regular clothes, sat opposite Roy and Selina, looking at Roy with a frown.
All the students in the auditorium were indeed rescued, and none of them were injured.
But Diana still felt that Roy's final manipulation of the terrorists to shoot himself was a little excessive.
For them, death is not a very uncommon thing.
But for the students in the auditorium, this is not common at all.
Not to mention witnessing terrorists shoot themselves up close, even if it is a picture of accidental death in a car accident, they may not have seen it with their own eyes.
"You can wait until the students have left the auditorium and then let the terrorists kill themselves, rather than doing it in front of the students."
"Seeing those terrorists commit suicide right in front of their eyes, those students may leave a psychological shadow."
Diana picked up the coffee in front of her and took a sip and said to Roy.
"If you let them leave the auditorium and do it, it won't have the effect of educating them."
"As for the psychological shadow, if they will have a psychological shadow, the moment they are kidnapped is enough for them to leave a psychological shadow."
Roy said calmly.
Yes, he could have manipulated the terrorists to commit suicide, as Diana said, when the students had left the auditorium.
But the problem is that he is not a teacher at Metropolitan University, nor is he a parent of those students, so he doesn't need to think about it so much.
To put it simply, he wanted to do it, and he did it.
From the moment these terrorists appeared, he had no intention of letting them leave the auditorium alive.
Although he could hand over these terrorists to the police in the Metropolitan and then let them be tried by the law.
But he had no faith in the laws of the beautiful country.
What's more, given the consequences of kidnapping, the terrorists are likely to be sentenced not to lynching, but to life imprisonment or a prison sentence of up to decades.
"That's right, but you still have to think about the feelings of those students."
Diana continued.
"Why should I consider their feelings?"
Roy asked rhetorically.
After hearing his answer, Diana knew that there was no way to continue the topic.
Although she felt that Roy could have dealt with these terrorists in a better way, considering that Roy was the biggest contributor to the rescue of the students, Diana decided to ignore the issue for the time being.
Roy was already very conscientious if he could help rescue these students.
Otherwise, he could have left the auditorium with Selina and Maggie as soon as possible, and threw the problem to Diana and the police at the Met.
"Let's not talk about that, Cyborg asked me to tell you that he didn't catch the grid."
"You pay more attention to yourself next, and be careful not to be plotted by the grid."
Diana said to Roy.
"I'll take notice."
Roy said slowly.
Although he can't solve the grid for the time being, the grid can't threaten him either.
Of course, threatening Serena's life is not a difficult task for the grid.
However, this is not something that cannot be solved.
As long as Selina continues to be with him, even if the grid wants to make a move on Selina, there will be no chance.
Even if it is inconvenient for him to follow Selina all the time, he can arrange a star clone for Selina.
Although the strength of the star clone is not as good as that of the deity, it is not an existence that the grid can deal with.
The only advantage that the grid has is that it is artificial intelligence.
And Roy doesn't have a good way to deal with AI for the time being.
After spending more than ten minutes at the coffee shop, Diana left and returned to work at the museum.
As for Roy and Selina, they returned to the hotel where they were staying.
Although today is not completely over, Metropolitan University has directly canceled all of today's classes.
So even if they want to stay at Metropolitan University and audit public classes, they can't do it.
Back at the hotel, Roy went to his study alone.
Although today's arrangement was disrupted by the grid, he also had some unexpected gains today.
The power of the heart!
By translating the power of the stars into psychic power, he can become a telepathic like Professor X.
Although there is no way to compare with Professor X in terms of application and proficiency for the time being, as long as you practice more.
However, his concern now was not about the power of the heart, but about another issue.
That is, you may need to think about how to deal with artificial intelligence now.
When he was still in the Marvel Universe, because of the presence of "people" such as Nami and Yamato, he didn't need to worry about this problem.
Even if he does encounter an AI enemy, he can hand it over to Nami and Yamato to deal with.
But here's the thing, it's not the Marvel Universe here.
Now he doesn't have artificial intelligence assistants like Nami and Yamato.
In this case, encountering an enemy of the AI type of grid, he can only figure it out on his own.
After a quick thought, he came up with three different solutions.
The first method, and the easiest way, is to go ahead and get an AI assistant.
Although there is no Tony Stark in this world, he can get an AI assistant from somewhere else.
For example, steel bones are a good trading partner.
The second method is to transform the power of the stars into the power that can be used in the digital world or the online world, just like the power of the mind.
As for how to transform the power of the stars into a power that can be used in the digital world or the online world, he has no clear and feasible method, only a general idea.
As for whether it can be successfully achieved, he can't say now.
If the second method is already considered to be more difficult, then the third method is a bit of a brainstorm.
Information Life!
The third method that Roy thought of was to use the power of the stars to transform himself into a pure information life in a short period of time.
Before the crossing, he had read a certain book.
In this book, there is a plot of the transformation of human beings into information life.
If he can transform into an information life as depicted in the book, let alone deal with artificial intelligence, he can even achieve immortality and godhood in a certain sense.
Of course, it is not easy to transform oneself from flesh and blood into an information life composed of huge streams of information.
It takes a lot of knowledge and experimentation.
If nothing else, there is even a need to parse the rules of the world to some extent.
After thinking about it for a while, Roy decided to start with the simplest.
That is to get yourself an AI assistant first.
Although the AI assistant obtained may not have the computing power of the grid, even if it is not low, it can at least block the grid for a while.
After making up his mind, he left the study, went to the living room, and said to Selina:
"I've got something to go out and sort it out."
"Good!"
Although she didn't know what Roy was going out for, Selina didn't ask much.
After hearing Selena's answer, Roy manipulated the power of the stars in his body.
Then, a portion of the power of the stars is released, condensing it into a pale cyan ball the size of an egg.
The prototype of the star clone!
He didn't directly create a star clone, but created a prototype.
Although it is only a rudimentary form, as long as you crush or throw this ball, the power of the stars inside can quickly condense into a star clone.
"You carry this thing with you, if you get into trouble, crush it, and then an energy clone will appear."
Roy said to Selina.
