The existence of Digimon isn't true artificial intelligence in the real sense.
At least, not yet.
Liang Xing built his own server and created the Digital World. Digital Eggs are virtual lifeforms born from the Digital World.
In essence, a Digital Egg is just a raw stream of data.
Depending on the data it acquires during its growth, the Digimon that hatches will follow the underlying logic set by Liang Xing, classifying it into different types of Digimon.
Because the Digital World exists, Digital Eggs can be born, and Digimon can be active on the network.
The attacks by Li Ming and his team of three are essentially applications of data streams.
Rewriting, misleading, bombarding with junk data streams—all sorts of manipulations of data streams, combined to form the infamous hackers on the internet.
But for Digital Eggs, these are all nutrients.
They aren't picky eaters, and they never refuse supplements!
It's just that the nutritional value of these supplements doesn't align with the correct values, ultimately leading to the birth of the Virus-type Goblinmon.
In Goblinmon's eyes, Li Ming's firewall is as good as non-existent.
Of course, Li Ming and the others could use firewalls and other homemade tools to prevent Goblinmon's intrusion.
But how could they have ever seen a Digimon?
Faced with such a flexible data stream, their brains were clearly not up to the task.
In the end, the team of three can't be considered very powerful hackers.
It's just that because Li Yuan is particularly cautious, the three brothers have a decent task completion rate and a pretty good reputation.
Definitely not just because they charge low prices!
In the eyes of the Japanese, Liang Xing Toys Factory is just an up-and-comer.
All its glory is built upon Liang Xing's personal talent.
But no matter how talented he is, he's still only 22 years old.
In less than half a year, designing GD Racers, holding tournaments, and recruiting national distributors—this kind of development speed is bound to have some drawbacks.
Since it's cheap, there's not much loss in finding a few people to test the waters.
Li Ming and his team ran into a brick wall this way.
They didn't ask for compensation for the loss; they just admitted defeat.
But they wouldn't take on this job anymore.
Who knew what was up with that virus?
Even if they tried again, Li Ming had no confidence in stopping its intrusion.
A person has to know their own limitations!
Running away when you can't win isn't shameful!
What's more, they also knew that they were being watched by the Huaxia government, so they probably had to behave themselves for a while.
Li Ming and Li Man felt they had been working hard for so long and took the opportunity to enjoy themselves.
Li Yuan, however, developed an interest in Liang Xing Toys Factory. He wanted to know what that virus really was.
And that small sphere that appeared behind the warning, thinking back on it later, he didn't think he was just seeing things.
All sorts of factors indicated that Liang Xing Toys Factory was far from as simple as it seemed on the surface!
Li Yuan wanted to know the truth.
And the source of the truth was currently perfecting the Digital World.
Through Goblinmon's feedback, Liang Xing knew the fate of the team of three.
This time, the fire in the rented house was indeed brought under control, but there was no guarantee that it would be controlled every time.
Liang Xing wouldn't feel good about that.
Of course, it wouldn't matter if the criminals' house burned down, but who could guarantee that the criminals wouldn't have neighbors?
Fire is the most ruthless!
It doesn't know whether the lives it devours are innocent or not.
Liang Xing could only eliminate this possibility from the source, and modifying the Virus-type source code really took him a lot of effort.
"This should do it."
Qian Lai had already found an excuse to leave after Goblinmon returned.
He was probably not very interested in Digimon, and he even refused when Liang Xing offered to give him a Digivice.
The original words were actually, "It's okay, if the production capacity is insufficient, I can do without."
One of the only two Digivices in the current stage was on Liang Xing's desk. Purely handmade parts, then personally assembled. Production capacity was indeed severely insufficient.
This was with absolutely no infrastructure, and the production line had to be started from scratch.
But fortunately, the planned Digital World adventure hadn't officially started yet, giving Liang Xing ample time to prepare the necessary equipment.
Too bad, can there really be a guy who doesn't like WarGreymon?
Liang Xing forgot that Qian Lai had no idea WarGreymon even existed!
The entertainment scene in this parallel world is certainly more vibrant, but that doesn't mean works from Earth will be born here.
In Qian Lai's eyes, Goblinmon is similar to the classic anime "Electronic Baby" in this world.
Since the growth of virtual life in "Electronic Baby" follows certain rules, their appearance mostly doesn't undergo earth-shattering changes.
Qian Lai was prejudiced and didn't think Goblinmon would change much after it grew up.
Both are virtual life forms existing on the internet, but Electronic Babies are cuter, and the nostalgia of over a decade makes it hard to accept a virtual life form with the same setup.
Actually, "Electronic Baby" also has dedicated electronic game consoles, which Liang Xing had also looked into, and they are quite similar to handheld consoles from Earth.
So even though the Goblinmon Liang Xing demonstrated can, to some extent, replace anti-virus software and firewalls, Qian Lai still thinks it's hard for him to surpass "Electronic Baby."
Nostalgia is something that's hard to measure with common sense.
Whoosh!
A soft, muddy black ball popped out of the screen, with a fluffy body and yellow eyes that seemed to glow.
Liang Xing reached out his hand, and the black ball jumped onto it. He could feel a slight weight.
"Even the fluffy texture feels so real." Liang Xing smiled, very satisfied with his results.
Beep beep beep—
A series of bubbles came out of the black ball's mouth, popping when they touched Liang Xing. He could even feel the subtle touch on his face.
Holographic Projection and simulated touch. The Digivice gives Digimon the right to interact with reality.
Unless people actually try to grab the Digimon, they would never realize that this is just a Holographic Projection!
This is truly a masterpiece that's enough to pass off the fake as real!
In fact, if Liang Xing wanted to, he could even give the Digimon a physical form.
He had pondered it before, and naturally knew that there was at least one material that could be stored in the Digivice. Through the Digivice's conversion, a real Digimon could be created.
But the synthesis of this material is quite complex, and Liang Xing specifically checked the price, and suddenly felt that Holographic Projection was enough.
You have to know that Digimon are not lacking in huge sizes. Once they really exist, they could really become a disaster for the real world.
This kind of virtual simulation only affects some participants, and the damage to the terrain is also simulated through Holographic Projection.
This can both satisfy the sense of reality of Digimon intervening in reality, and also not really affect reality.
Maximum experience!
Before officially releasing the Digivice, Liang Xing still needs to report to the authorities, otherwise, with the lifelike effect of the Holographic Projection, Liang Xing is really afraid the authorities will be mobilized.
Of course, Liang Xing doesn't actually need to report it himself.
He didn't hide it, and even deliberately showed it. Zhang Long and Zhao Hu knew Liang Xing's little thoughts at a glance, and happily notified the higher-ups.
Happy cooperation, right?
Happy Mid-Autumn Festival!
I wish everyone a happy and complete Mid-Autumn Festival, a happy family, and happiness!
