Chernobyl

From a technical point of view, carbon-based life forms do not necessarily need metal elements, let alone calcium supplements, such as some alien tentacle monsters.

But without a doubt, the humans of the planet Jili are not included.

In fact, the intelligent species on the planet Jili are almost indistinguishable from humans on Earth.

Therefore, the strange changes within Aramaki's body immediately piqued the senior engineer's interest. Was it due to some kind of special human experimentation, or a clone? Or perhaps, some unspeakable reason?

For example, Gao Gong knows that the Aramaki Group has always had contact with outer space, and Aramaki Tower has the ability to send signals to extraterrestrials.

Unfortunately, perhaps sensing the unusual atmosphere, Arasaka, being a seasoned veteran, only exchanged a few perfunctory words before making a hasty retreat—before leaving, he even thoughtfully arranged for these high-ranking officials from the mother city to travel in luxury carriages.

"So, could Arasaka be the next stage of the memory matrix?"

Even after boarding the vehicle, the senior engineer was still thinking. Arasaka Tower possessed the ability to communicate with outer space and had a large amount of intelligent data, making it seem very suitable for the first wave of evolution of the "Information Matrix".

If that's the case, then the senior engineer's original plan will likely have to be changed.

Initially, he only wanted to participate in the planetary storyline of the "Fall of Arasaka Tower Incident." He even sent "Bird of Paradise" away to form a new "Eleven" to seize the mission on this planet.

But if Arasaka really is connected to the memory matrix, then its importance will be amplified!

Perhaps we could have dealt that level 150 monster a severe blow from the start!

Of course, all of this is just Gao's speculation, and it's hard to say whether it's true or not.

"Many of the current players should be qualified to join the Arasaka Group; it's time to make use of them."

After jotting the idea down in his notebook, the senior engineer turned his attention to the task panel.

[Your Agility has exceeded 200 points. Please select an improvement direction: Lightning Dash/Vibration Mode/Random 'Mutation' option]

The previous 'mutation' option had given the senior engineer a pretty good reward, so after hesitating for a moment, he resolutely chose 'vibration mode'.

Vibration Mode (Bio-Specialty): When Vibration Mode is activated, the bioelectricity will switch to a high-frequency mode, stimulating various parts of the body and allowing each organ to enter a cleansing state. Once in this state, toxin elimination is increased by 200%, the recovery speed of each human system is increased by 10%, and biological rejection is slightly reduced.

Without hesitation, the senior engineer invested 15 specialization points and upgraded it to the second tier.

Vibration Mode (Bio-Specialty) (Level 2, Class I): By adjusting the frequency of bioelectricity, the vibration can be actively adjusted, allowing various organs to enter different modes of purification. This can effectively prevent hacker signal intrusion and has a certain degree of aggression. After entering this state, toxin rejection increases by 500%, and the recovery speed of each human system increases by 50%. It can actively interfere with biological rejection and limit it to a certain range. At the same time, it can stimulate certain special parts and provide female service functions.

No, we didn't choose this place to serve women.

The senior engineer's gaze was firm and his expression serious. From now on, please call him the human-shaped self-propelled vibrator. He will provide high-quality human services to all rich women, no matter which part or channel, there will be no problem!

Just as I was getting excited, I suddenly shuddered. Huh? Did I activate a skill?

Oh no, it's the interstellar train that's departing.

For interstellar civilizations, the means of travel are naturally far more than just spaceships. In fact, while interstellar railways may not be considered megastructures, they are still one of the cosmic infrastructures.

Its specific operating method involves laying long vacuum pipes within the planetary system to absorb aerodynamic resistance and break through the first cosmic velocity; at the same time, it lays out "gravity-free star orbit magnetic rings" in outer space, also known as "outer space stations," to accelerate or decelerate trains through magnetic levitation.

With the help of thousands of 'magnetic rings', the train was reduced from the second cosmic velocity to the first cosmic velocity, and finally parked on a space station or asteroid base.

This is also a way of interstellar travel.

Of course, this kind of "interstellar train" is limited to within a galaxy. To break through a galaxy, one must break the speed of light, and once the speed of light is broken, any ordinary matter will decompose.

In Gao Gong's memory, the earliest to start laying star orbits were actually the ancient empires. They used this method to transport troops to the asteroid belt and two satellites to rule over extraterrestrial territories. However, during the Second Mechanical War, this thing was destroyed by the octopus army of the mother city with antimatter bombs. In the Cyber Age, the mother city rebuilt the interstellar orbit, but there is only one line, which leads directly to Cybertron.

Generally speaking, whether it's an elevator, subway, or railway, sudden stops or accelerations can be uncomfortable. However, in a vacuum track, you won't feel that way at all, and there won't even be a sound.

As the train broke through the second cosmic velocity and reached the third cosmic velocity, which is 7 km/s, the engineer's view out the window became increasingly blurry, eventually turning into a large number of light spots and a blurry, mosaic-like scene.

However, in less than a second, as fog formed in the engineer's eyes, the scene returned to normal.

In fact, even with all sorts of interstellar transportation, becoming a second-order species remains the most important prerequisite for ensuring interstellar travel.

The next moment, the senior engineer heard the arguing. He turned around and saw Tong, the bespectacled girl, with her face unusually flushed, glaring angrily at an AI. Meanwhile, Cha Pai, with his dead fish eyes narrowed, had a half-smile on his face, which to those who knew him well was already a very serious expression.

"... By questioning the representative's choice, are you questioning our Ghost in the Shell Mobile Division?"

"Of course not," the super AI said with a smile, its face, composed of countless holographic projections, smiling as if countless crescent moons were blooming.

"Of course I trust Ms. Motoko's choice, but considering the situation we are facing, isn't it only natural to verify the representative's competence?"

"You want to test my skills?" the senior engineer asked in surprise.

"Of course, ah, please don't misunderstand, it's not that I don't trust you, I just simply don't trust human nature."

"What's your name?"

"Director of the Humanity Experimentation Department and the Cybercrime Prevention Center, you can call me Chernobyl."

"Beep beep—"

Name: Chernobyl

Race: Super AI

Level: 60

Personal attributes:???

Professional knowledge: Virtual information security level 10, cyber programming language level 10, neural network modification level 10...

Skills: Advanced network slicing, cyber local area networks, super AI hubs, big data evolution, cyber killer summoning...

Boss Templates: Super Data Processor, Infinite Personalities, Local Master, Hacker Killer

From the very beginning, the senior engineer noticed that the AI was level 60 and had an exaggerated four boss templates.

Generally, AI at this level has transcended the 'AI' level, which is the artificial concept of artificial intelligence, and has reached the level of virtual life.

Virtual life forms are virtually impossible to kill without targeted methods.

This is a powerhouse on par with Motoko Yagami!

"What do you say, dear 'Prototype Gentleman'?"

Upon hearing this, many people's gazes immediately became suspicious and uncertain.

"What are you talking about? Who is the prototype?" the senior engineer said with a forced smile.

"I don't know either. I just secretly accessed 'Miss Shell's' database and found this possibility with a probability of 1%."

"Cherobius!"

Suddenly, an angry shout came from the communicator from "Miss Shell".

The senior engineer stared at the other person's strangely unpredictable face, then suddenly grinned. "Isn't there still a 9% chance that I'm a good person?"

"That makes sense," Chernobi nodded seriously, as light and shadow flickered around them.

"But Mr. G, do you know how our Cybercrime Prevention Center combats cybercrime?"

"I don't know."

"We use big data analysis to identify potential and qualified hackers at some point in the future, and then eliminate them in advance to prevent future problems."

"So, with so many people killed, the cyberspace must be very safe, right?"

"The number of new-generation Cyber Hacker has decreased by 63% in the past decade," Chernobyl said. "But there are still some special hackers who emerge outside of computation; we call this type of hacker a variable."

"In my opinion, Mr. G, you are the variable!"

The next moment, the entire Star Train suddenly disappeared, replaced by a world of data changes, where light and shadow overlapped and various signals began to decompose.

"Do you know why I'm only making my move now? It's not because that annoying woman from Ghost in the Shell isn't here, but because there's no signal for anyone in outer space."

"And we have a slight advantage in artificial intelligence. For example, our hardware can create a super local area network in a short time."

Dangerous network user detected!

Dangerous network user detected!

"The website you are about to visit contains malware that may install dangerous programs on you. The Humanity Testing Department will remove your humanity and take appropriate action."

"Personality deletion in progress, 10%, 20%, 30%, 40%..."

The bright red blood melts into oxidized hemoglobin signals, gushing out a red mist, which then dissipates.

The cerebrospinal fluid is broken down into biological signals and then formatted, looking like a file being dragged into the recycle bin for decomposition.

The digestive system is digested by the regional network and dissolved into a huge digestive pool.

The engineer seemed to have been assimilated by Chernobog, becoming an incarnation of countless holographic projections. Once the transformation was complete, it meant that he had become a part of the other person.

However, the next moment, a violent electronic shockwave swept out, severing all the holographic projections in its path.

One Strike with the Staff: Creates a 5mm mental shockwave. Attack power: User's Intelligence * 20 + Perception * 20 + Consciousness * 10. Has a certain probability of triggering electronic damage.

The light dimmed, Rich Lady Aiai Prototype, holding a walking stick, stood calmly on the sea of electronics.

In reality, the senior engineer's body was trembling at a speed imperceptible to the naked eye.
