Death Mission
In ancient times, once a virus program spread, it could cause thousands of computers to crash, massive amounts of data to be lost, and systems to collapse.
In the mechanical age, brain viruses are even more dangerous because the vast cyberspace envelops the entire planet, and every person is "artificial data." Once it spreads, the target of collapse will be the human brain.
Once the human brain crashes, it cannot be restarted.
In front of Ahong, countless phantoms of Aidolu appeared, rushing towards the holographic screen one after another.
As for the senior engineer, a phantom tentacle as thick as a water tank shot out, splitting into two, then into four, then into eight, eventually filling the entire holographic screen.
What they were guarding against were birds made of white data. These birds flew out of the holographic screen, and with a gentle peck of their bright red beaks, a tentacle or an Aidoru would instantly collapse, its core data being devoured.
With each original code it consumed, the "Bird of Paradise" grew larger, eventually reaching the size of a water tank in a short time.
Its target is the raw code of the human brain!
Ah Hong's expression changed, and he quickly withdrew Aidoru, turning to the senior engineer and shouting, "Help me buy some time!"
The senior engineer nodded, and the next moment, all the tentacles closed their eyes and turned into thick mist. The birds seemed to be lost, flying around in the mist and occasionally letting out a scream.
The senior engineer didn't speak, and neither did Ah Hong; the room was eerily quiet.
The bird of paradise kept flapping its wings, stirring up the mist. The senior engineer noticed that the bird's wings were gradually turning white.
"A composite virus?"
The bird of paradise's beak can deconstruct source code, making it a kind of "destructive virus," while its wings are clearly another kind of "infectious virus."
More and more birdsong rose from within the fog, as if countless wings were flapping the fog, causing it to thin out.
"Yuanyuan, do you remember the trick I taught you?"
"Remember!"
A slender hand emerged from behind the engineer's head, the fingers tapping lightly as if striking piano keys.
As the piano music played, the mist dissipated and the stars rose. A silver ribbon burst forth, and stars lit up the darkness with each strike. Each point of starlight was a star.
The vast and profound universe is composed of billions of stars.
The bird of paradise got lost in the Milky Way.
"Brother, that was a really clever move of yours."
Nonsense, this is one of the basic frameworks I used to create Gensokyo. Although what I'm sending you is just a basic version, it's still enough to trap a mere virus.
About three minutes later, Ah Hong activated his signature move, the Mirror Meta Algorithm, which generated complex neural impulses from countless neural signals.
The mirrored city that never sleeps overlaps with the real space.
Gao Gong and A Hong returned to the room once again, but this room was a 'mirror space'.
"Bird of Paradise, as expected of Senior Sister!"
In the holographic television, the image had become a chaotic mess, with numerous viewers' heads exploding. Each time a head exploded, a "peace dove" flew out, and the heads seemed to have turned into eggshells.
For a moment, the entire awards ceremony venue was covered with birds of paradise.
The senior engineer turned his attention to Mr. Chuang.
The average AI is around level 10.
Intermediate AI is around level 20.
Advanced AI is around level 30.
The minimum level of a super AI is 40, and it must have at least one large data center. For someone as super rich as Mr. Chuang, there is definitely more than one large data center!
This one's Electronic Barrier is sold in sacks.
However, it was all for naught.
Ordinary people can only become a 'bird egg', but this Mr. Chuang became a super incubation center, with countless birds of paradise flying out from all parts of his body, densely packed.
It's like the eye of a white storm.
Meanwhile, in the VIP section, Emilia, the former governor's daughter, was screaming as several birds of paradise chased and pecked at her. With each peck, a part of her face would disappear, while an unfamiliar part would appear.
Visual blurring correction, holographic image editing, automatic facial bone adjustment, intelligent autologous fat grafting, eye color-changing system...
With each peck, a part of the cosmetic surgery system collapses.
The final image presented was not of the noble, elegant, and stunningly beautiful Miss Emilia Anna, but of a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl with an aged and distorted face.
In fact, it wasn't just her; all the ladies, young women, and android beauties on the VIP stage began to distort and deform.
In the mechanical age, cosmetic surgery is as simple as washing your face and brushing your teeth, but once the technology malfunctions, the consequences can be terrifying.
The lsp suddenly became celibate.
On the VIP platform, the only one who could still put up a fight was Mr. D, but even this pure white-clad chairman was starting to falter.
The surface of a phantom white shell, thousands of meters tall, is covered with birds of paradise. Each time a bird pecks at the shell, it leaves a small dent.
A large amount of enterprise data was lost.
"Being the chairman is great. You can summon the 'corporate will' to possess you at any time. Even the CEO doesn't get this kind of treatment."
The senior engineer knew that "Pure White Shell" was one of the six major companies, known for producing androids of different styles: combat type D, professional type E, commercial type F, service type S, and pioneering type G. These were all innovations of the company.
As for this Mr. D, he is the first combat-type android in history, around level 50, and he will definitely have a boss template, possibly more than one.
However, for Cyber Hacker, whether you are the boss or not, as long as they cannot retaliate at the virtual level, it's only a matter of time before they take you down.
The only thing Mr. D can do now is to stall until the show's security forces arrive; only then will he have a chance to survive.
If this had happened to another android giant, such as the chairman of "Electronic Grid," hacking into Paradise Bird would not have been so easy.
They specialize in different areas.
On a smaller scale, this is a clash of professions; on a larger scale, it's a clash of systems: carbon-based systems counter machinery, machinery counters energy, energy counters information, and information counters carbon-based systems.
Who told you to be an android? You might be better off if you weren't human.
"Now I finally understand why she was causing trouble on this show!"
The world's most popular program, watched by millions or even tens of millions of people simultaneously, was also hacked by a virus. The sheer number of viruses involved can only be described as terrifying!
Especially before the virus is cracked.
During this period, a Cyber Hacker could even possess the hacking powers of a "big data monster".
"The cyber killers are about to be deployed."
The senior engineer had a smug look on his face.
Ah Hong's face fell as he considered whether to issue a statement severing ties with "Bird of Paradise".
The scope and extent of this kind of trouble is absolutely enough to land them on the city's wanted list!
Sure enough, every time the data distorted in the conference hall, a man in sunglasses would walk out, wearing a black suit, a red suit, and a silver suit, representing the Blackwing Killer, the Redwing Killer, and the Silver Wing Killer, respectively.
When the last woman in a pure white suit and sunglasses stepped out of the data stream, even Aidoru knew things were in serious trouble.
The ultimate cyber assassins, Cloudwing Assassins, have been deployed!
The woman in the white suit glanced at the holographic screen, and the next moment, all the live streams, rebroadcasts, and online broadcasts turned into static.
"Tsk tsk, what a show!"
After the "blockbuster" ended, the engineer strolled over to the small home bar he had built, ready to mix another drink.
As for Ah Hong, he stood up agitatedly, pacing back and forth, muttering something under his breath.
Adoru looked at him with concern.
After walking for a full five minutes and circling around hundreds of times, Ah Hong suddenly stopped, then gritted his teeth and said, "I have to save people!"
"Ahong, you—" Adorlu stood up in astonishment.
"Keep it up, I believe in you!"
The senior engineer remained calm and raised his glass to the other person.
"Help me!!"
Ah Hong slammed his hands on the table, his eyes bloodshot, and said.
"I won't do it."
The rejection was so decisive that the senior engineer didn't even mention any requests.
"I'll give you the source code for the mirror meta-algorithm!"
"I won't do it."
The senior engineer poured the other person a glass of wine.
"As a hacker, you should know very well that every Cloudwing Killer is a sub-database of the Mother City Deep Web. Once Cloudwing Killers are deployed, it means that Deep Web already knows about this. You don't want me to be unable to access the internet in the future, right?"
Cyber Hacker have always been lawless, both on Cybertron and in the fortress.
However, even rebellious Cyber Hacker still have a certain degree of respect for the deep web, one of the three mother cities.
Firstly, compared to the other two mother cities, the deep web is more tolerant of the hacker profession. In the deep web, Cyber Hacker can even move and trade freely in the mother cities.
Secondly, the deep web has a major trick: it can directly disconnect the internet, and do so globally by unplugging network cables and blocking IPs. No matter how you change your identity, you will no longer be able to log in to cyberspace.
For a hacker, being unable to log into cyberspace is tantamount to losing most of their life.
"What will it take for you to help me!"
The senior engineer stroked his chin, just about to threaten the other party with his anus, when a "ding" sound suddenly came from the system panel.
Normally, task icons flash yellow, but this time, the task icons are red.
A hellish mission!?
Easy, Normal, Hard, Nightmare, Hell
Among personal missions, the highest level is the Hell-level mission.
Hell quests are also called death quests.
What is a hellish level task? It is a task that is theoretically impossible to complete.
A hellish mission for a Level 1 civilization; it's impossible for a Level 1 civilization with the technology to complete it.
The Hell quests of a Level 2 civilization are absolutely impossible for characters below level 60 to complete.
Clicking the quest icon brings up the crimson quest bar, unique to Hell-level quests.

---Aside---
There's one more picture, but it'll be very late, so let's look at it tomorrow.
