Chapter 1560: Complete the Basics, Upgrade to Zero!

In the management system of Hulai City, the central intelligent brain has a detailed and strict level division of control over the Blue Star people in the city.

Although the scope of action of expedition leaders such as Ojijia is also limited, they still retain a certain degree of freedom and mobility.

However, for important figures such as Quill Wagner who hold a high position as a consul, the situation is completely different.

Due to the special status of their identities and their key position in the city's power structure, let alone participating in daily official business, the central intelligent brain does not even allow them to leave their homes without permission during the martial law control period.

"This is a very helpless thing. To be honest, the moment we were fortunate enough to know your identity, we immediately put the matter of visiting you on the agenda, but due to the control of the central intelligent brain in the city, according to the rules it has set, we have no power to take the initiative to contact the outside world..."

"Fortunately, our expedition team found your territory a long time ago and registered you as a VIP above C+ level in the intelligent brain, otherwise I would not be able to communicate with you here now."

Quell Wagner said a few polite words, without hiding anything, but directly got to the point.

"Mr. Su Mo, we need your help."

After the words fell, the red button attached to the chin of the expedition team member began to flash, the red light jumped violently, and the piercing alarm sounded at the same time.

However, after a few seconds, the light went out at the same time, and there was no sound.

"We can only get two minutes under the control of the central intelligent brain, and the communication will not be monitored during this period."

"Yes, I know why you are here and what you need."

"All the technical information of the enterprise is stored in the server of the central intelligent brain. If it cannot be opened in the prescribed way, the information inside will be destroyed by the intelligent brain immediately."

Quell Wagner spoke very quickly, and he was the one who spoke the whole time, without giving the other end of the intercom a chance to speak.

At first, Su Mo was a little surprised.

But as the archon mentioned the technical information, Su Mo's expression instantly became focused and serious.

The other party actually guessed his needs and knew the purpose of his coming here.

It's really interesting.

Before coming, Su Mo thought that the Blue Star people in the city might not cooperate, and it might be more convenient to communicate with the central intelligent brain.

Unexpectedly, the other party was so decisive and directly threw out the biggest chip in his hand.

"I can assure you that the company's level of confidentiality is absolutely top-notch. If you plan to forcibly invade the central intelligent brain to obtain these data, the final result will only be a bunch of burned servers."

"Tell me, what do you want and what can you pay?"

Hearing this, Su Mo simply stopped hiding and asked directly.

"We want to merge Hulai City into your territory. Yes, we want to use all the equipment, technology, and personnel in the city to invest in your Tianyuan Territory."

Quail Wagner's tone revealed a hint of nervousness. He paused slightly, as if to confirm whether Su Mo was listening carefully, and then spoke faster:

"You don't have to worry about our adverse effects on Tianyuan Territory after investing. If you want us to be responsible for management, we will be happy to do so. If you want us to be idle, there is no problem. This is just a guarantee for us to survive. Since the mysterious game can bring us directly from Blue Star to this new continent, it must be easy to kill us, but we believe that as long as we can join your territory, there is a great chance of survival!"

"Invest..."

Su Mo thought.

At this moment, he thought of many things.

Since the cognitive impairment was solved after the first gambling fight, according to the current time, more than four months have passed.

Even if the Blue Star people in Hulai City are slow to react, they should understand the current situation clearly.

Knowing that the situation is unfavorable, if not resistance, at least struggle, right?

But the reality is just the opposite. The whole city of Hulai is terribly quiet, as if it is really controlled by the central intelligent brain.

"As expected of a corporate person, you are so brave that you are waiting for me to come to you and ask for cooperation..."

After thinking for a while, when Su Mo looked at Ojijia again, there was indeed a hint of expectation and nervousness in the other's eyes.

The Blue Star people in the city should have held several rounds of meetings to discuss how to "surrender".

If they take the initiative to find Tianyuan Territory, with their ability, they can't give many chips without being able to remove the central intelligent brain, and they will probably be treated as a trouble.

But as long as they can wait for Su Mo to come to them, they can immediately win favor by showing this low profile.

At this time, even if they still can't get rid of the control of the central intelligent brain, they can get more opportunities than the former.

"It sounds good, what can I get?"

"Secret key!"

Quell Wagner answered decisively with a touch of excitement in his voice.

"It takes three secret keys to unlock the restrictions of the central intelligent brain. The first consul of the city will have the first independent secret key, and all the remaining managers will have the second secret key."

"With two secret keys, you can enter the server room of the central intelligent brain."

"The last secret key is three questions set by the enterprise. Answering the three questions correctly can unlock all the permissions of the central intelligent brain. You have three chances for each question."

"Are you so sure I know the answer to the question?"

Su Mo was really stunned this time. He could hear the trust that only the small players in the territory had in the other party's tone.

No, it was the trust that Qiao Yuansheng and Chen Shen had in him.

"I believe that if you can't solve this problem in this world, no one can."

"Although I have heard this many times, this is the first time I heard it from a Blue Star person."

Feeling the other party's sincerity, Su Mo pondered for a moment, "You can invest. I have cooperated with the academy and the foundation, and there are Blue Star people in my territory, and there are quite a few of them."

"But there is one thing I want to make clear in advance. I won't give you too much help, but I won't limit your development. Where you can go in the future depends on your own ability."

"Understand, we understand!"

There were only a dozen seconds left in the two minutes, and Quill Wagner couldn't help but punched in the air.

It's really not in vain to raise those earthlings outside the city.

With the permission of the strongest man in the wasteland, why can't Hu Lai City create another miracle of enterprise in this land!

"Captain Ogija, time is running out, so I'll make it short. After the shielding time is over, please immediately open the communicator in your hand. There are two chips with secret keys hidden in the B-2 area. Please help me pass them to Mr. Su Mo. Thank you for your hard work!"

"Ah?!"

Ogija was stunned, his face full of surprise and confusion.

No, the communicator in his hand was obtained three months ago after the city was under martial law.

In these three months, Ogija can be sure that the communicator has never been replaced by anyone. After all, it has always been by his side and is used every day. He can't fail to notice any subtle changes.

At the same time, he also firmly believes that in the environment of martial law monitoring by the central intelligent brain, it is impossible for someone to put two chips in without knowing it.

Then, the only reasonable possibility is...

The senior executives of Hulai City had already made these preparations three months ago.

They had expected Su Mo to come and made arrangements in advance, just like planting a seed of hope in winter, waiting for the arrival of spring.

Beep... Beep...

It wasn't until the red light flashed again that Ogijia came back to his senses.

He immediately squatted down and deftly opened the communicator, and indeed found two chips the size of a fingernail.

"Give it to me, Captain Ogijia, I'm sorry to bother you today."

"It's my pleasure, sir!" Ogijia stood up quickly, handed the chip to Su Mo with both hands, and bowed his hands at the same time, with a look of awe on his face.

Then he tactfully pouted at the team members behind him, and quickly led everyone away quietly.

More than a year ago, when they were still ignorant, they could still talk to Su Mo with a calm and even superior mentality.

However, now, knowing what happened on this continent and what the man in front of him did.

Now, even if Ogijia had a hundred courage, he would not dare to do anything beyond the rules.

"With these two secret keys, the next step will be much simpler."

After using the system to identify and confirm the authenticity of the two secret keys, Su Mo was no longer anxious.

There was no hint to answer the three questions set by the enterprise, and there was no possibility at all.

Fortunately, Su Mo had never thought that he could easily accomplish this matter from the beginning.

With the support of the blue star humans in the city, 70% of the trouble has been saved.

The next step is to spend a special survival point to upgrade Zero, and it should be easy to open the last secret key.

In the evening.

The afterglow of the setting sun sprinkled on a thin layer of golden gauze, and an energy stone plane with a striking Tianyuan logo painted on its fuselage was like a big bird, whizzing over the canyon around Hulai City.

During the period, when passing through the canyon, the hatch opened below and several airdrop boxes were thrown down.

When it was close to the ground for 100 meters, a block-shaped black shadow suddenly jumped out of it, relying on the pair of exquisite metal wings behind it, flexibly adjusting its flying posture, circling in the air for several circles, and flew straight to the direction where Su Mo was.

"Master, you are finally back. Zero missed you so much!"

"Tsk tsk..."

Su Mo smacked his lips and smiled:

"When we return to the territory, remember to collect all the clones you left behind. So many clones are around my ears every day, which is a headache."

"That won't work. These clones are the nutrients for Zero's evolution. Without them, the speed will be very slow!"

"Hey, how long has it been? You are still refusing?"

Su Mo was stunned. He always felt that Zero was a little closer to being a real human.

"Don't worry about evolution. I asked you to come here this time because I have a very important task to give you."

"In the Hulai City in front, there is a central intelligent brain that stores all the technology of the enterprise. If you can use its database to feed and learn, it will be faster than if you put thousands of clones."

"Central intelligent brain?"

Zero turned in the air, and the cube turned into a stuffed bear doll. He tilted his head and asked curiously.

Looking closely, isn't it a smaller version of Moore?

"Is it artificial intelligence like Zero?"

"Probably not."

Suma frowned slightly. The company's technology should not have reached the level of artificial intelligence yet.

At most, it is a pseudo-artificial intelligence, which is only real with the support of a large amount of data and computing power.

Once it leaves these supports, it is far less than one-tenth of the ability of Zero.

"Its computing power is extremely powerful, and it can process countless data information in the city at the same time. Whether it is the distribution of living materials for residents, the operation and maintenance of various facilities, or the defense monitoring of external threats, its internal algorithm may be better than yours. And its defense mechanism is very strict, with multiple layers of encrypted firewalls and real-time monitoring systems, any illegal intrusion will be quickly detected."

"Once it is detected, the internal data is likely to be destroyed. What we have to do is to break through this restriction and get the data inside."

"Master, if we analyze according to the information you said...I'm afraid it will be difficult to achieve."

The light in the eyes of the doll Moore kept flashing, and after some calculations, he came to a conclusion.

"If we force a breakthrough, our success rate may be only about 5%."

"No need to force a breakthrough. I have already got the key to the server room of the intelligent brain, and I also have the two secret keys to close it. The only thing left is the last one, which requires answering three questions."

"Huh, in this case..."

Zero calculated seriously and gave the probability half a minute later: "There is about a 43% probability of breaking through the limit."

"43%..."

Su Mo shook his head, "Provide an upgrade plan according to the requirements. According to its characteristics, I want to get all the data inside 100%!"

"Okay, Zero is calculating and is expected to provide you with a plan in three hours."

When he heard that he could upgrade himself, Zero simply turned back into a small cube, and electric current lines instantly appeared on the round metal shell.

For this artificial intelligence full of curiosity and exploration spirit, upgrading means being able to break through its own limitations and access a wider field of knowledge and more powerful computing power. This is an irresistible temptation.

Ten o'clock in the evening.

Su Mo got the first version of the upgrade plan.

It mainly focuses on three aspects: optimization of the computing core, code cracking ability, and data defense ability.

The first two are used to accurately locate the network entrance and data transmission node of the central intelligent brain without being discovered, and the latter prevents the countermeasures that the central intelligent brain may take and makes preemptive protection.

"This requires 27,000 survival points... It's really a rip-off!"

After entering the plan into the system and looking at the number given, Su Mo's eyes were wide open.

If he hadn't made a lot of money before, he would definitely not be able to pay this amount.

You know, the last gambling fight only cost 10,000 points. In comparison, the cost of decrypting the intelligent brain is too much!

Of course, if the technologies owned by the enterprise are upgraded one by one, it will take at least a million points.

With such a comparison, Su Mo did not hesitate and immediately started upgrading Zero.
