The task was extraordinarily difficult. Not only was the volume of data fragments immense, but their structures were cold and rigid, filled with self-referential validation loops and anti-cracking logic locks. Worse, they carried an unsettling "conceptual chill"—simply trying to understand them risked being reverse-eroded by their logic of simplification.
"We must establish multilayered logical firewalls and use Prototype Radiation for 'conceptual disinfection,'" Lin Ye ordered.
The prototype's radiance was guided into the data analysis zone, forming a warm filtering field that neutralized the data's hidden intent to impose forced standardization.
The analysis proceeded under the highest alert.
"Initial fragment clustering complete. The main body of the data is the logical core code for 'Definition Override Protocol X-7' and its associated submodules, accounting for approximately 65%."
"A large volume of Civilization Trait Template Library data has been found, containing abstract trait models for over 170,000 different civilization types, along with corresponding 'recommended override plans.'"
"Fragments of 'mission logs' have been found, recording a vast number of execution records across an immeasurable span of time."
"Fragments of a 'communication protocol stack' have been found, pointing to a superior node codenamed [Archivist], but the connection path's encryption exceeds the bounds of current understanding."
"An... anomalous data block has been found." Order's Dawn Coordinator's voice wavered. "This block differs sharply from the rigid style of the others. Its structure is more complex and contains... faint, incompletely erased traces of 'autonomous decision-making' and 'abnormal incident records.'"
"Bring it up." Lin Ye perked up.
A heavily marked data projection appeared. It resembled a diary that had been violently torn apart, full of contradictions, errors, and self-referential passages of unclear meaning.
Yet after being "softened" by Prototype Radiation and painstakingly interpreted by Order's Dawn Coordinator, fragmented pieces of information surfaced:
