Chapter 117: Ruins
After some in-depth exchanges, Yang Wuji finally understood the meaning of the blue-haired brother.
The blue-haired boy calls himself "Philip" and "Philip the Silver Wolf", apparently a member of a resistance group, and the goal of this resistance group is to overthrow a certain person who uses the reign of terror as a "fortune star" - "Overlord".
This overlord, on his side, seems to be researching a terrible weapon recently, and once the research is successful, the people on the entire planet will no longer have the ability to resist him.
And in order to complete this research, this so-called overlord is now sending people everywhere to capture the "ghost".
The so-called "ghost" is a hacker, or a person who has the technology to block the detection of others.
"So, I've been targeted by this bullshit bully?"
Yang Wuji listened to Philip's narration, feeling a little funny, he was obviously in the main universe now, but he had the illusion of crossing over.
"Is this the future version of Yelang's arrogance and watching the sky?"
The tentacles of the three major forces of the Empire, the Order, and the Alliance are all over the universe, and they have even begun to invade the other world.
But on this small planet with few resources, there are still people who do this kind of thing......
But this incident gave him a clue.
"According to what you mean, as long as it is a 'ghost' that is exposed, it will be captured by that overlord?"
Yang Wuji asked Philip:
"Among those who were arrested, is there the companion I was looking for earlier?"
Brother Philip still had an indifferent expression, and he didn't let down his vigilance against Yang Wuji at all because of the exchange just now.
He just recalled a little and gave Yang Wuji an ambiguous answer:
"I have the impression of the person you said, it was indeed staying here some time ago, but then it suddenly disappeared one day, I'm not sure if she was captured by the overlord, but there are overlords' eyeliner everywhere, and the probability of being captured is very high."
Yang Wuji nodded, he also suspected that the president was captured by the overlord.
After all, the president has no combat ability, and even if he encounters this kind of "village tyrant" in the corners, it will be difficult to get out if he is targeted by the other party.
With the clues, the next thing is to follow the vine, Yang Wuji tried to ask the little brother about the location of the overlord, and the location where the overlord imprisoned the captured "ghost".
As a result, the little brother said that he didn't know either, and also said that he was working as a waiter here for the purpose of investigating this.
Their organization's biggest goal now seems to be to sabotage the Overlord's plan to create that mysterious weapon.
Before the overlord started to arrest people, the Zephyr Hotel used to be the place where "ghosts" haunted the most.
That's why Philip ran here to keep an eye on it, hoping to catch the eyeliner of a few overlords.
Yang Wuji has no interest in the resistance of the rebels and the plans of the overlord, he just wants to find the president as soon as possible and bring her back from here.
"Since they want to catch the ghost so much, then if you say that if I continue to live here, will the overlord's people come and arrest me?"
Yang Wuji touched his chin and pondered, Philip saw his thoughts and warned him:
"I advise you not to do stupid things, there were many powerful 'ghosts' who chose to rebel against the overlord, but their final outcome was to disappear from now on! Don't feel special! The power of the overlord, you can't imagine! ”
"What bullshit!" Yang Wuji felt more and more outrageous: "Aren't you connected to the Internet here?" Don't you know what the outside world is like? ”
"Internet? You mean the network? Of course we have the Internet, I know you are an outsider, but don't think that you are an outsider, you can condescend to look down on us! ”
"Deep Web! I mean the deep web! Depend on...... Even if it's not a deep web, if there is a network, you should know the existence of the empire and the strength of the empire, right? What 'overlord power, you can't imagine'......"
Yang Wuji complained while activating his brain for a long time and trying to connect to the network - it turned out that he could only connect to an internal network similar to a local area network.
"What the hell?"
He is now accustomed to using his consciousness body to directly connect to the deep web, and when he first used his wisdom brain, he was taken aback when he found this situation.
Yang Wuji took out the deep web connection device used to hide people's eyes and ears, and found that there was no signal from the deep web here!
"I see......"
He felt a little crying and laughing.
No wonder the people here are so backward, the feeling is that this place is not in the coverage of the deep web signal!
Even the signal network is only a backward network built by the planet itself......
Once it is determined to be worthless, it will not even be covered by the deep web or even the network...... Is this the style of the Empire?
"Forget it," Yang Wuji didn't bother to bother with Philip, "At least the people here still know the empire and know the credit." ”
He is not a savior, and the outside world is not a paradise, and the people here do not need Yang Wuji, an ancient person, to save him.
Love, what's wrong.
"Okay, little brother silver wolf, you don't have to worry about this, isn't it just being taken away? I have a way to get out. ”
Yang Wuji said, walked to the door, and while opening the door, he turned back to Philip and said:
"Thank you for your information, when I find a companion, I will help you destroy all the bullshit plans of that overlord, which can be regarded as a reward for you."
Philip didn't listen to persuasion at all when he saw this person, and he didn't say anything more, because in his opinion, Yang Wuji was already a dead man, and there was no point in talking to a dead man.
Looking at Philip's back without looking back, Yang Wuji shook his head and sat back on the bed.
Just in case, he still planned to use his divine mind to monitor those so-called "overlord eyes" first, and at the same time enter the information layer, and by the way, learn about the general situation of this planet.
……
Late at night, on the second floor of the Zephyr Hotel.
Philips, wearing a pitch-black cloak and shielding himself from sound and heat with a camouflage, quietly hid at the staircase on the second floor like an inconspicuous stone, observing the situation.
Of course, he didn't do it because he was worried about the outsider, his purpose was to investigate the overlord's eyeliner.
If you can find out the identities of those overlord eyeliners hidden in the Zephyr Hotel, then as long as you find an opportunity to kidnap the other party and torture them again, you may be able to gain information about the overlord's plan.
Their resistance organization is still very weak, and if they confront the overlord head-on, it is tantamount to hitting a stone with an egg, and they can only adopt this method of stealing chickens and dogs.
Although Philip is young, his calm eyes at this time are like veterans who have experienced war.
His parents and sister were all killed by the overlord's men, and he could give up everything for revenge!
As long as the overlord does not die for a day, there will be a constant generation of victims like him!
As the night grew darker, several sneaky figures appeared in the corridor on the second floor.
The men had a clear goal and went straight to the room where the outsider was.
They clearly had spare keys, and acted professionally, opening the door of the outsider and rushing in almost without making a sound.
Two minutes later, several people came out of the room carrying a heavy black cloth bag and walked down the stairs.
Philip waited in place for a while, making sure that the other party would not return, and then lifted the shield and walked to the door of the outsider's room.
Through the open door, he saw that the room was empty, and the outsider must have been stuffed into the cloth bag that the people were carrying.
"He is still ashamed to say that he wants to help us destroy the overlord's plan. That's all there is to it? ”
Philip sneered, and a painful and heavy expression quickly appeared on his face.
Because from the movements of those people just now, he recognized two very familiar figures.
"I didn't expect that even they would take refuge in the overlord......"
After the pain, Philip's eyes flashed with determination, he would never let anyone who had anything to do with the overlord go free!
Even if he knows this person, and even has a lot of friendship, he must make the other party disappear from this world!
Meanwhile, outside the Zephyr Inn.
Yang Wuji flew in mid-air, watching the "kidnappers" below stuff his doppelganger into the trunk of the flying car, and then drove the flying car away at a high speed, and immediately shook his head:
"It's not good to be too popular, this is the second time I've been kidnapped, right?"
Thinking so, he followed behind the other party's speeding car.
Because the speed gap between the two sides was too large, Yang Wuji had the feeling of watching the snail walk, and he couldn't wait to fly down and carry the flying car to help them run.
After following all the way for more than six hours, Yang Wuji was bored and wanted to sleep, and the flying car below finally stopped in a place similar to a military camp.
"This is it?"
Yang Wuji immediately unfolded his divine thoughts and searched the inside of the barracks, and sure enough, he found a place similar to an underground entrance in the center of the barracks!
"Huh?"
As the scope of the Divine Thought Scan expanded, Yang Wuji couldn't help but be surprised:
"It's ...... Artificial intelligence relics? ”
In his mind, under that underground entrance, there was a very large underground complex!
The materials of these buildings were so unique that Yang Wuji's divine thoughts could not penetrate them at all, and from the shape and structural structure of these underground buildings, Yang Wuji could discern their source in an instant!
These buildings are all relics left by the mysterious disappearance of artificial intelligence!
Because Yang Wuji himself was "bumped" out of the artificial intelligence relics, for a while, Yang Wuji went to study the artificial intelligence relics for a period of time.
"There are still remnants of artificial intelligence here? Could it be that when the empire was exploring, it didn't come out? ”
After Yang Wuji applied invisibility and concealment, he silently fell in front of the entrance of the underground passage.
According to what he learned from the information layer during the day, this "Fortune Star" was originally called "Sea Scythe Star", which was an ordinary resource star.
Later, with the completion of the unique resources, the value of the planet decreased rapidly, the residents were transferred, the environment was seriously polluted, and finally the government completely abandoned the place.
There are only a few prisoners and some refugees who have been exiled from other planets, relying on various equipment and facilities left over from the previous government to make a living on this planet.
This kind of planet, because it has not been developed for a long time and is declining rapidly, it is likely that there will be unexplored artificial intelligence relics on it.
It's like Cha Lanxing that Yang Wuji was rescued back then.
However, the value of this kind of relic is generally not high, and it is very likely to be similar to the ruin where Yang Wuji was back then, even in the history of artificial intelligence civilization, it is a very ancient thing.
"I see, ......" Yang Wuji thought for a while, and had a guess about the "secret weapon" that the bullshit overlord was developing.
It is estimated that this cargo is better, and after discovering this artificial intelligence ruin, he found some kind of artificial intelligence technology left by it from it, so he arrested people everywhere, and wanted to gather talents in this area to help him restore and use the technology.
"I'll just say, what kind of secret weapon can be researched in such a place."
Yang Wuji confirmed his guess as he walked into the underground passage.
As it progressed, there were many more patrolling "soldiers" in the underpass.
Unlike the scavengers, the residents, and the vigilantes, these soldiers wore uniform black leather uniforms, with a skull emblem with a dagger painted on the chest of the uniform.
They should all be the armed forces of the overlord.
Yang Wuji ignored all kinds of patrols and checkpoints, and walked through the layers of backward to pitiful defenses, all the way to the depths of the underground ruins.
Relying on his knowledge and mastery of artificial intelligence relics, Yang Wuji went straight to the core of the building, a place like a square.
In the center of the square, there is a white pillar of light rising into the sky.
The pillar of light is shrouded in something resembling a glass tube, connecting the ceiling and the ground several tens of meters high, which is the energy core typical of AI relics.
The square is surrounded by dark green curved metal walls, and the whole square is shaped like a watermelon with the upper and lower ends shaved off.
However, unlike the ruins where Yang Wuji was born, at this time, there were a large number of people and equipment in the square of this ruins, and they were in full swing engaged in research work.
Yang Wuji was invisible, came to the center of the square, found a group of researchers who looked like management, stood directly beside them, and entered the information layer.
After a moment, he opened his eyes and smiled.
As he thought, this place is indeed researching the technology left behind by artificial intelligence.
However, unlike what Philip said, the researchers under the Overlord are not studying weapon technology, but a technology similar to the human body space jump.
However, there is a fundamental difference between this technology and the spatial folding.
To put it simply, this technology allows people to locate their own timeline coordinates, and then manipulate the information to let themselves in different timelines reach a specific target location.
After that, cross-latitude projection technology is used to project oneself at a specific target location directly onto the timeline where the body is located.
At the same time, the consciousness of the ontological body is also transmitted synchronously, and finally the projected consciousness of oneself is covered, so as to achieve the "physical jump".
However, if you do this, you will have two versions of the same timeline with the same consciousness and memory, but in different positions.
For ordinary human beings, such an approach is undoubtedly digging their own graves, and which of the two selves is the ontology and which one has the dominant power will directly lead to the situation of "fighting with oneself".
However, considering that this technology was developed by artificial intelligence, it is understandable.
After all, artificial intelligence and human beings are completely different from each other in terms of their views, concepts and moral standards, and this kind of technology may not cause problems at all in their opinion.
