Chapter 471 Black Wall
Late at night, on the roof of Xisheng Shrine.
"Again?" Xu Yang asked.
"Forget it!"
Xu Yang still had energy left, but Ye Zi was exhausted. She looked around wearily, blinking.
"This is my mother's tea room." Ye Zi yelled, "I never thought I would be here, it feels like insulting her, so strange!"
"Don't you like it?" Xu Yang stroked Ye Zi's hair.
"Ouch." Ye Zi rolled around on the tatami mat Noriko Honma had been sitting on, "If mom knew what we were doing here, she would be mad."
"This is not a holy place. It's actually quite sinister. She's been staying here since she got old."
"Then the heat we created can dispel her shadow." Ye Zi said with a smile.
Ye Zi jumped off the tatami and walked up and down on the wooden floor barefoot.
Looking back at the place where they stayed before, they were sweating from hard work, and she gave Xu Yang a victory gesture.
Noriko Honma's tea room is a fully enclosed disinfection room, which meets the standards for treating fragile patients. It is spotless, clean and bright.
The terminals and servers configured here have excellent performance, which is convenient for Noriko Honma to process news from all over the world. Now they are being requisitioned by Xu Yang. He sets up the network equipment environment here, lays out the Sea of Hills system, and strengthens the network. According to safety regulations, the data room in the basement of the Jingu Temple is very large, providing amazing computing power, comparable to a supercomputer, and enough to support the operation of artificial intelligence.
Here, Xu Yang really felt that he was overwhelmed by the heights. In Shangjing, they had fewer friends and more enemies.
"Our quick victory has reduced unnecessary casualties," Xu Yang looked at the brightly lit metropolis, "but there are still troubles. What about your people? Do you have any people in the northern archipelago that you can contact?"
"Of course." Ye Zi operated on the terminal, searching for the company under her name, "Before, according to what you said, I assembled about 400 ninjas, 1,000 troops, 2 laboratories and 1 surface fleet. Currently They were all hoarded near Shengba City, and they were formed and called Leaf Company, but they didn’t have time to use them. In addition, I still have more than 17 million left with me.”
"The Nisto company still has hundreds of billions of reserves in its books." Xu Yang nodded, "Now is the stage of digesting the results of the battle, and transforming what we have obtained into various strengths. If it is Ye Zi, it should be stronger than us. Know what kind of place Shangjing is."
"I know, I can help you sort out the problems inside and outside the capital, and wipe out the remaining opponents...but one generation can't finish these things." Ye Zi turned to Xu Yang.
"The next generation..."
"If you want, I am willing." Ye Zi lowered her head.
"It will be very troublesome." Xu Yang squeezed the leaves.
"What... I'm not afraid of trouble."
"We actually have successors." Xu Yang explained, "Noriko Honma said that if we fail, we will be forgotten. It is not true, those young children, the boys and witches who grew up in Nisto Company, they still We will remember what we said and what we did."
"It's not as close as my own children."
"You like children?" Xu Yang sized her up.
"I like it. I decided to sever ties with my mother and stay here for the rest of my life. Is it too much to have a child?" Ye Zi pouted.
"Then I'll show you a good boy." Xu Yang and her dressed neatly, looking for the little fool in the small room at the other end of the flat floor.
She was lying in the moonlight in her pajamas, but she didn't sleep. She put her hands behind her head, raised her feet, and stared at the moon outside the window. The milk bottle hung on her chest like a talisman. Although she had been weaned for a long time, she still liked it.
"That dumb kid with drooling eyes and eyes open?" Ye Zi felt incredulous.
"Uh, you can't say that. Her name is Xu Cheng." Xu Yang explained.
"It's only a year old, what kind of technology?" Ye Zi's eyes widened.
"First of all, it was brought back from outside, and the name was taken separately."
The leaves feel weird and fun.
She met many lovely children in her childhood. The Xisheng Shrine used to be filled with the descendants of Noriko Honma. So far, there are more than 4,000 "children of Xisheng" distributed all over the world. And no matter how cunning a child is, it is still a baby waiting to be fed when it is born.
Ye Zi walked up to the little fool and wiped her cheeks with a tissue. The little fool was staring at the silver dot on the moon, and suddenly a strange girl covered her face with flexible paper, which shocked her.
"Quack?" The little fool immediately turned over and stared blankly at Ye Zi.
"If you want to hold a child, you can hold her." Xu Yang said.
"It feels as crisp as a porcelain doll." Kojima Yezi didn't dare to touch the little fool.
"She is much stronger than you imagined." Xu Yang laughed.
Ye Zi knelt on the ground and waved to the little fool, who looked straight at her.
What a peaceful look at each other, Ye Zi couldn't see any emotion in the innocent eyes of the little fool.
Like looking in a mirror, what you actually see is yourself. Leaf thought to herself.
This gaze makes Ye Zi quickly traverse her life from the past to the present, and pursue the points worthy of reflection. In the end, Ye Zi had to face all the dark sides in her life, face up to those wavering, fearful and pessimistic thoughts, and make various compromises under the majesty of her mother. If they are not eliminated, Ye Zi cannot be reborn.
"What a strange child." Ye Zi turned his gaze, "An astonishing little one."
"Quack." The little fool was annoyed at being called a little one. She wanted to seek compensation, so she walked up to Ye Zi, untied the milk bottle from her neck, and pointed to the empty bottle.
"What is this?" Ye Zi still can't quite understand the little fool's narrative style.
"Supplementary food." Xu Yang explained his confusion, "It can provide her with a lot of mobility until sometime tomorrow or the day after tomorrow."
The little fool looked up at Ye Zi, which made her unable to refuse.
"Okay, there is a machine with infinite flow of milk in the shrine, I will take you to find it, and there will never be any lack of it in the future." Ye Zi picked up the little fool very skillfully.
The little fool was completely overwhelmed by this shocking news.
She opened her mouth slightly, her thoughts drifted to the end of the milk paradise. The little fool hangs on Ye Zi, looks at Ye Zi reverently, and feels that the future is guaranteed.
"What about you?" Ye Zi walked towards the elevator and looked back at Xu Yang.
"There is a problem." Xu Yang connected to the system of Xisheng Shrine and noticed something strange, "Someone has entered the underground data center."
"Hacker! Intruder!" Ye Zi was shocked, and even the little fool became alert, "The computer room on the basement floor is a forbidden area!"
"No... no. You take Xu Cheng away first, and I'll go over to check." Xu Yang quickly went to the main computer room on the basement floor of Xisheng Shrine.
Xu Yang leaned his back against the elevator wall, sat in the shockproof cabin, and was ready to accept the shock.
There is an emergency elevator in the Jingu Shrine, which uses an electromagnetic ejection system. It takes only 6 seconds to go from the tea room on the top floor of the 159th floor at a height of 636 meters to the data room on the ground floor.
call out--
With the sound of the wind, Xu Yang felt that the elevator began to slow down and slide in the middle, and reached the bottom floor steadily. Then the door opened, and he walked into the machine room.
In fact, he was not particularly worried, because he saw Farosha here from the camera, and the so-called intruder was actually Farosha.
Xu Yang just didn't know what Farosa was doing here.
Falosa walked in the computer room, surrounded by huge black walls. Each wall was nearly 1 meter thick and 2.5 meters high. They were far apart from each other and were made of bulletproof metal, making it difficult to open.
They are connected to the data system of Xisheng Shrine, support the operation of all terminals in the entire building, and provide computing power for the multi-eyed demon's shrine extension, forming a huge computing matrix.
"What do you feel?" Xu Yang followed Farosha, and now Farosha walked silently like a ghost.
"I feel..." Faroza stopped, "something I had to do, in the night, in the dream, voices begging me to open them, to think out. I asked Lila what it was, and Lila said it was Countless witches have experienced her past, which is even crueler than her past."
Xu Yang found the key stored in the terminal of the Jingu Temple, and authorized Faroza to open one of the black walls, and the black metal textured wall shrank to both sides.
Xu Yang saw densely packed witch brains inside the wall.
Each brain is placed in an embalming solution, covered with electrodes and data cables, and these brains are filled with chips before they are placed in the data tank, shining brightly and colorfully inside the black wall.
In some cases, entire heads were placed in jars, with wires strung bluntly through their skulls and facial skin, and broken spines floating in the solution.
Falosa pressed her face against the glass, looking at the witch brains that formed the matrix.
Xu Yang saw that there were labels on each data tank. The oldest one had been here for 110 years, and the youngest had been in the military for at least one year. The 159-story building of Xisheng Shrine is built on top of their heads.
"They call me mother." Faroza closed her eyes, "They are all talking to me, let me wake up from my dream and redeem them, otherwise we will never know what is here."
Xu Yang followed Faroza while deciphering the information stored in the computer room. There are still many secrets in Xisheng Shrine.
"Where did their skins go? Where did their bodies, hands and feet go?" Faroza said to herself, she wandered through the maze of black walls, opened one wall after another, and connected the witch brain matrix with data cables It's everywhere in every direction.
Xu Yang only found out the relevant data now, partly because he was executed for rebelling against the Xisheng Group, and his brain was cut out so far. Most of them died of exhaustion after extreme working conditions, but their brains were still excavated to serve Xisheng for a longer period of time.
The more excellent scientific research witches are, the more they will be labeled as waiting to be processed. When their work efficiency decreases, the staff will enter the witch execution program as soon as possible, so that their intelligent brains can be preserved here for a long time, providing stable value.
Many witches are specially bought to make similar tools, some are randomly selected, and undergo relevant wetware production experiments for large-scale transformation, and some are purely kidnapped and forced to provide computing power.
Farosa plucked one of the jars from the black wall and stroked its glass surface silently.
She put her ear to the jar and she heard, more clearly, cries after cries, coming from all directions.
"Kill me, mother."
"Kill us... Mama Faroza..."
"Please... kill us all..."
"We don't want to live anymore, we don't want to live anymore!"
Farosa hugged the jar and stroked it over and over with her hands.
"If you fix them..." Xu Yang observed, "it's like fixing Lila..."
"You mean they still have to work? How much longer are they going to work?" Faroza shook her head, "Enough is enough, all of them are enough, they just want to die."
If I change myself, I don't want to continue to live after accepting this kind of treatment, even if I recover, I will be immersed in the shadow for life. Xu Yang thought silently.
"Let's do what we should do." Xu Yang said.
"Get ready." Faroza stood up, "I will rescue them from their pain."
Xu Yang went to the outside of the room, used his digital mind to control the equipment in the shrine, and transferred their resources to external facilities to reduce the damage caused by the sudden drop in computing power.
Then, a gray glow flashed in the room, and almost instantly, Xisheng Shrine lost the "supercomputing matrix" in the switchboard room.
The multi-eyed demon's extension fell into a downtime and standby state. Ordinary computers could not support the huge amount of resources required by artificial intelligence. The system computing power of Xisheng Jingu showed a trend of plummeting, and the total computing power instantly decreased to 40% of the original. The data processing capability of most of the terminals in the network has been greatly attenuated, and the performance has been reduced unprecedentedly.
Perhaps it was a hallucination, he heard a few long sighs coming from the data center, a century of pain finally came to an end.
When Xu Yang returned to the computer room, he saw that every black wall and every jar was filled with fragments of brains and flesh.
Colorful phallosas bloomed among the gory shards.
Holding the bloody jar in her arms, she lay on her back on her neon cloak.
"It's all over," she said.
Xu Yang saw that there were still about 10 jars preserved.
"What are they going to do?"
"The only thing left is that they still have nostalgia for the world, longing to be reborn by me." Faroza said, "Now, the computer has slowed down."
"It doesn't matter, we can develop, manufacture and purchase equipment by ourselves." Xu Yang whispered, "There is also the mother body of the multi-eyed demon. If we negotiate with the mother body about freedom, it may lend us its computer room."
"Yeah." Faroza stared blankly at the sky, "At least..."
"What did you see?" Xu Yang sat beside her, holding her cold hand.
"I saw their souls rise to the stars," Faroza said softly. "They smiled at me and thanked me for releasing them completely from a long and painful torment. They called my mother, they stretched their soul's hands and feet, Swimming in the air, they smiled at me as they swam, they didn't know how to walk and run for a long time, they couldn't distinguish colors and smells, they were like fish, but none of this mattered, now they don't need My skin is gone, and I am free."
Xu Yang lay down, he couldn't see anything, he could only smell blood and burnt circuits.
But one thing is certain, the witches who were buried deep in the ground are now closer to the sky than anyone else.
"To become the God of Witches, you have to be bound to the concept of Witches," Farosha stretched out her hand as if she could touch the soul in the air, "Before, I felt isolated and far away, but now I am more and more connected with the fate of the entire witch population Tighter, I have to prove myself worthy of that identity and finally become one with it."
"...By the way, Noriko Honma left us a message, she threatened us." Xu Yang looked at the dark ceiling, "Her consciousness has left the witch's body and transcribed into the machine."
"So she accepts the witch transformation ceremony just to improve her physical condition, and the ultimate goal is to accept this form of 'Ascension'?"
"Yes, her original human body is old and weak, but now it can be transformed."
"If we intercept the consciousness data, can we still transfer Noriko Honma back to her original body?" Farosa asked.
"Yes, as long as it is properly modified... Her original body is probably still there, at least as a souvenir."
Faroza nodded slightly.
"Her, how can she escape her identity as a 'witch'? This is a great gift given to her by the God of Witches." Faroza said, "I want to capture Noriko Honma's consciousness and stuff it back , Put the head on her neck into a jar and seal it into a black wall. How clear my path is, everything that started because of me will end because of me.”
