Chapter 803 Old Network

During this time, the headlines around the world were dominated by Night City, the angel who ruled it, and the complete disintegration of New America.

President Miles was completely killed by the impact of the Crystal Palace space station. Others were not much better. The entire top leadership of the new US government almost collapsed. In this case, the Free State started taking action again. They claimed that all this was a punishment from God. In order to atone for their sins, the Free State once again separated from the New United States, and other states that originally belonged to the New United States also started taking action. Disintegration is now a matter of time.

Of course, D once again accepted a live interview with reporters.

"Lord Angel..."

Compared with before, this time the reporter had more respect for the angel girl in front of him. After all, the battle with military technology had completely proved her power. No matter whether this girl was an angel or an alien or something else, at least she She does have the power to fight a private armed force on her own, which is terrifying enough.

"About the war between military technology and Night City some time ago, do you have anything to say?"

"I don't have anything to say."

Facing the camera, D shook his head.

"Night City is now under my rule. What military technology does is invade the territory I rule. As a ruler, of course I will not allow this to happen, so I destroyed them. It's that simple."

"There are rumors that you were involved in the crash of the Crystal Palace space station in Washington..."

"I did it."

"Yes, but why did you do this? According to reports, tens of thousands of casualties were caused in this disaster..."

"so what?"

However, when faced with the reporter's question, D lightly interrupted her.

"The new United States has launched an attack on us, so the new United States is our enemy. It is natural to destroy the enemy. Is there any problem?"

"Yes, but most of them are civilians!"

"As far as I know, wasn't the president of the new United States elected by these civilians? Since they did not prevent this from happening, then these civilians are also accomplices. In my opinion, there is nothing innocent about them. "

"this……………"

The female reporter was stunned when she heard D's answer. She had never thought that an interviewee would say such rebellious words in front of her.

"Yes, but this should be against the teachings of the gods, right?"

"What you think of gods is your own business, but this does not mean that gods must act according to your ideas. You have formed a church to worship gods without authorization, fabricated lies about it without authorization, and then used these lies to brainwash Everyone else, what does this have to do with us?"

"What?"

The female reporter was shocked when she heard D's answer.

"You mean...the church...those religious organizations...aren't they spreading the will of God?"

"If necessary, God will send his saints to come forward in person, just like I am now - why do you need to rely on human words? To be honest, if you just kill each other and compete, God will not care. Because nature That's it, the strong eat the strong, the competition for survival, all living things are competing for survival, but you can't kill and blame everything on God... If I remember correctly, using other people's names without permission should be done in the human world. Is it illegal?"

"……………………"

Facing D's answer, the female reporter was completely stunned. Not only her, but even the religious believers watching TV all over the world were shocked - because this angel girl's speech was almost completely negative. Everything they believe in.

God has never allowed humans to spread His will, let alone fight wars in His name, so what does everything they have experienced and fought for over the years count?

And what this angel means is that God has had enough of this group of humans pouring black water on themselves no matter what they do, so he sent her down?

"So... why are you here...? Please don't get me wrong, I want to say... what kind of future will you lead mankind towards in the name of God?"

"What kind of future mankind will move towards depends on mankind itself. The purpose of my coming here is just to prevent mankind from going to destruction."

"Do you mean that humanity will perish?"

Hearing this, the female reporter suddenly became nervous.

"Can you please tell me, what exactly did mankind do wrong to lead to destruction? What should we do?"

After hearing the female reporter's question, D was silent for a moment, and then said only one sentence.

"Watch the other side of the black wall."

The live broadcast did not last long, but it caused unimaginable shock and waves around the world. The first one to bear the brunt of the impact is religion - after all, God's messengers have made it clear and direct that those religious organizations that act in the name of God have nothing to do with God, and at the same time, everything they preach is not from God. will, so the believers were extremely angry and began to accuse these religious institutions of deceiving the people, and the latter were also useless... I don't know what to say.

Of course, in addition to this, the issue that the people are most concerned about is-the destruction of mankind!

After all, even angels appeared for this, which means that the human beings in this world are indeed facing the fate of extinction. Not only that, the other party also gave a reason!

The other side of the black wall!

The old network!

A long time ago, the network of this world was still fully covered, but then the hacker god Batmos destroyed the original network, causing a large number of AIs to roam, so the network monitor created the black wall to completely isolate the original old network. This is why people now use regional networks.

If this is compared to reality, it is equivalent to that the human beings all over the world hide behind the barrier called the black wall and live their own stable lives, and on the other side of the barrier, there are countless malicious AIs roaming. These AIs are far more powerful than humans, and almost no hackers who climb over the black wall survive.

However, because there have always been network monitors guarding the black wall, everyone thinks that the old network should not be a threat. In fact, although some people think that they must find a way to completely solve the problem of the old network, for most people, the old network has long been isolated from their lives.

However, now, the threat of the old network and malicious AI is once again in front of people.

The Internet monitoring also quickly convened high-level officials from other countries to discuss countermeasures. They believed that their maintenance of the black wall was impeccable. Logically speaking, those malicious AIs could not pass through the black wall anyway. But it is conceivable that once the malicious AI passes through the black wall, it will be a catastrophe for humans.

These malicious AIs are far superior to humans. They can easily overload all human electronic devices and destroy those humans with prosthetics. It can be said that they can directly send humans back to the Stone Age in a physical sense. Any network electronic product will become an accomplice of malicious AI. At that time, everything humans have will become their enemy in turn.

How to solve this problem?

For people of this era, this is indeed a difficult problem to solve. In this era, all networks are interconnected, and everything people have is circulated on the Internet. Cutting off the network is second only to giving up breathing for humans of this era. In this case, if you want to eliminate the threat from the old network...what should you do?

To be honest, even D doesn't have a good way to deal with this.

"What's the situation?"

Looking at the terminal in front of him, D frowned and asked, and Lumiel quickly gave an answer.

[The situation is very dangerous]

"Danger?"

[Yes, Judge, the old network is completely out of control. According to my investigation, they have even lost the support of the physical level and can survive only by themselves. This is not just a simple network, it is a plane, a new world...]

"You mean, even if we destroy the core server of the old network, we can't completely destroy this network?"

[Yes]

"Tsk..."

Hearing Lumiel's answer, D smacked his lips.

"That damn bastard really knows how to find a place. Damn... I really can't get this thing."

Although Duanmu Huai didn't understand the principle of Lumiel, he had almost guessed the situation of the old network at the moment - just like the war between the ancient saints and the fear of death that lasted for millions of years, creating the current subspace. The old network that was originally blown up and isolated also produced a similar existence like the subspace or shadow plane due to the uncontrolled evolution of malicious AI in the past few decades.

That is to say, even if D destroyed the server of the old network, he could not destroy the electronic network world——unless he went deep into it directly.

"Is there a way for me to enter the old network?"

"I can use the Mewtwo system of this world to put your mind into it, but I think it will not last long. After all, your power is too strong. If it conflicts with the malicious AI of the old network, the aftermath is likely to completely destroy the Mewtwo facilities you are wearing. In that case, your consciousness is likely to be trapped directly in the old network and unable to escape."

"What a trouble."

Hearing Lumiel's answer, D frowned. She was 100% sure that the culprit was definitely hiding in the old network. However, as Lumiel said, fighting the enemy on the enemy's territory is not a wise choice.

In this case...

Thinking of this, D's face sank slightly, and a hint of murderous intent flashed across his face.

"Then let's turn it around and let them attack directly. Lumiel, can we remove the black wall?"

[Judge? 】

I have to say that Lumiel was shocked to hear D's question.

[Once the black wall is lifted, the malicious AI will immediately spread throughout the entire network, and by that time...]

"By that time, the idiot hiding inside will have to come out even if he doesn't want to."

D interrupted Lumiel.

"Remember, Lumiel, this is just an illusory, uncertain future. No matter how many people we kill here, it is just a number of 'possible losses' for our era. Once this future is completely destroyed, it cannot be fixed with the past - we are not here to save the world, remember this, and I have warned them. Do you understand?"

[Yes... Judge, I understand]

"Can you do it?"

[...I need some time]

"Get it done as soon as possible."

[Yes]
