Having seen the movie, Chen Mo had a fairly good understanding of the background of this world.

Despite being a country built on the ruins of a war, with a small population and small size, the core of the country is just a city surrounded by a huge wall.

However, despite the destruction caused by the World War, their overall technological level is not lower than that of the real world. It's just that due to the oppressive and dictatorial rule of the Church concentration camps, it is not obvious in terms of people's livelihood. But judging from the scale of the city and the height of the buildings inside the walls, as well as some other details, their technological level is not low, and in some aspects it may even be much higher than that of the real world.

However, these are just his deductions from the movie; he still needs to confirm the specifics himself.

"J.A.R.V.I.S., is there any network connection here?"

Chen Mo called out to J.A.R.V.I.S. and asked.

Judging from the environment here, this should be the Nithers District outside the Libya wall. Unlike the cities inside the wall, this area has not been rebuilt and still remains in a state of post-war ruin.

"No wireless networks were found during the network search."

"Searching for satellites, satellite signals detected."

"Intrusion?"

Chen Mo recalled the level of computer technology shown in the movie and nodded slightly.

"Invasion".

After Chen Mo gave the order, J.A.R.V.I.S. emitted a "Start Intrusion" prompt and then fell silent. Chen Mo frowned involuntarily. The last time he infiltrated a satellite on a deserted island in the real world, it didn't take too long.

According to Chen Mo's speculation, the computer technology in this world must have been significantly damaged in the war, and its overall strength was not much stronger than that of the real world, so it shouldn't have taken so long.

Could it be that his speculation was wrong, and that the computer technology in this world was not as bad as he imagined?

However, he still had full confidence in J.A.R.V.I.S.. Even if their computer technology was very advanced, he shouldn't forget that J.A.R.V.I.S. was also a powerful being that was decades ahead of real technology. He could move freely in the Iron Man world, where technology was much more advanced than reality. A mere post-war reconstruction of Libya would definitely not be a problem for him.

After a long while, J.A.R.V.I.S.'s voice rang out again.

"Intrusion successful! Connection to satellite network established!"

"Why did it take so long?"

Chen Mo couldn't help but ask curiously.

"This satellite was a communications satellite they launched before the outbreak of World War III. It was technologically advanced and had a very sophisticated defense system."

Chen Mo nodded upon hearing this; that made sense.

"However, sir, I just hacked into their ground network via satellite and found that the organization that controls this satellite has a very poor level of computer technology, almost like the real world, and the defense of the entire network system is practically non-existent."

Upon hearing this, Chen Mo understood; it seemed his previous prediction had not been wrong.

Libya's computer technology level had regressed considerably after the war. With "Bosean" suppressing the emotions and desires of ordinary people, and the Resistance Organization having little technological strength other than the weapons left over from the war, there were no threats on the Internet, so their defenses were naturally very weak.

In other words, the satellite's original defense system caused J.A.R.V.I.S. a little trouble and wasted some time.

Now that he had successfully infiltrated the network, Chen Mo's first task was to figure out the true situation in Libya.

He needed to understand the specific technological strength, the structure of the power system, and the situation of various institutions and departments to find his own entry point. His goal was very clear: to obtain the Gun Fu!

However, Gun Fu is the Church's highest form of martial arts, and it is only taught to priests internally. Therefore, obtaining Gun Fu is not easy and requires careful planning.

Libya 'J.A.R.V.I.S. network was almost completely undefended, and he quickly gathered the intelligence that Chen Mo needed.

Just as Chen Mo predicted, Libya's current technological level is, in some ways, more advanced than that of the real world. However, due to the destruction caused by war, the remaining technology is very uneven.

In terms of basic mechanical manufacturing and military equipment, it is much more advanced than Earth. Although it does not reach the level of HYDRA, the difference is not significant.

However, they mainly relied on the advanced mechanical processing and manufacturing equipment left over from the war. They had no problem manufacturing relatively simple mechanical equipment such as weapons, automobiles, and armored vehicles, but they no longer had the production capacity for large and complex products such as airplanes and ships. The only aircraft they could manufacture were airships, and they mostly used the huge screens on the airships to broadcast the Pope's speeches and brainwash the people of the entire city.

Similarly, there has been a significant regression in computer technology. Before the war, J.A.R.V.I.S. would have had to put in considerable effort to hack into the satellite, just as he had done before. But now, the technology is on par with the real world, leaving J.A.R.V.I.S. with virtually no defenses and allowing for easy intrusion.

In other aspects, it is basically maintained at a level comparable to or slightly exceeding that of Earth, and its overall level is still slightly stronger than that of Earth.

Aside from the level of technology, Libya's current power structure and departmental composition are similar to the conclusions Chen Mo deduced from the movie, but there is one difference.

In the movie, the Pope has already passed away, but the news is kept secret, and only the Council and Vice Chairman Dupont know about it.

Furthermore, after the Pope's death, DuPont was elected by Council to succeed Pope. However, in order to avoid unrest among the people and clergy due to the death of their beloved Pope, and to strengthen their rule by leveraging the Pope's authority, they concealed the news of the Pope's death and used computer technology to have DuPont impersonate the Pope and issue orders.

Since the Pope rarely appeared in public and mostly issued orders via video, and the specific management of the country was always done by DuPont, they were able to successfully conceal the Pope's death.

But now, according to information J.A.R.V.I.S. has obtained, the Pope is not dead!

Chen Mo recalled that when the movie's plot unfolded, the Pope had been dead for three years, while the wife of the male protagonist, John Pushton, a senior priest of the Jehovah's Church, had been cremated four years earlier for committing a crime of passion.

Chen Mo then asked J.A.R.V.I.S. to check on John Peston's situation, and found that his wife was still alive and well.

In other words, this is at least four years before the events of the movie, and the story hadn't even begun yet.

This gives Chen Mo a lot more room to maneuver.

Having grasped the current situation in Libya, Chen Mo had a plan in mind. What he needed to do now was to resolve the issue of his identity. If he wanted to obtain the Gun Fu, he would have to find a way from within the Church.
