Everyone was stunned by his words.
Only the technical director, Ruan Liangji, stared fixedly at the design blueprint and rose to his feet in a daze.
He enlarged the central section of the signal tower on the blueprint, revealing an exceedingly complex mechanism before everyone.
"This..."
"...is an electromagnetic wave oscillation transmitter."
"There are so many reflector plates, thin as cicada wings."
"The frequencies of the electromagnetic waves have virtually countless possible variations..."
"And wireless network signals are essentially radio waves—in other words, electromagnetic waves."
"Mr. Liu, this is an oversized Wi-Fi network, but why make it so complicated?"
"There's absolutely no need for it."
The technology fanatic Ruan Liangji fell into deep, inescapable confusion.
Liu slowly raised his head. "Because I want to build my own network."
A Jia was somewhat dumbfounded. "Build your own... network?"
Liu said, "Base stations that belong solely to me, spread across the entire world and woven into an independent network!"
"All signals will use my own encryption method, and only my unique decryption code will be able to access the data within. No one will be able to interfere with it. Complete autonomy."
Ruan Liangji froze. "Mr. Liu, once this network is closed off, it can withstand every virtual intrusion! It'll be airtight!"
Liu slowly nodded. "Smart."
"Then what is this sphere?"
Ruan Liangji pointed again at the top of the Black Tower, at a device composed of densely packed cameras, infrared detectors, acoustic detectors, and kinetic detectors, as though it could perceive everything without a single blind spot.
"That is my eye."
Liu spoke calmly.
"His own network?"
"His own eye?!"
"Mr. Liu, are you trying to become the god of this world?"
Everyone felt a chill in their hearts.
Liu merely added, "A guardian god."
"This..."
Ruan Liangji was deeply shaken.
