Just when the old man finished speaking and Lin Xian saw the old man's appearance clearly... the familiar white light came again without warning.

Burn everything.

…

…

Teng!

Lin Xian jumped up directly from the big bed in the high-end suite:

"Fuck..."

He looked left and right, but couldn't find the familiar nightstand clock.

Only then did he realize that he was not in the bedroom at home.

He got out of bed, picked up the charging phone on the table, and checked the time:

00:42

"This is reality."

Lin Xian breathed a sigh of relief.

At that moment, he suddenly remembered what the psychiatrist Dr. Liu once said:

"If one day you lose the reference point for distinguishing reality and dreams...you know what will happen, right?"

"By then, you will be completely unable to distinguish between reality and dreams."

So long ago.

He never took this sentence seriously, and he never thought that there would be a time when he couldn't distinguish between reality and dreams.

but.

Just now in my dream, I was stunned with an electric shock device by the soldiers behind me and woke up wearing a hood.

At that moment, he really couldn't tell the difference.

Is it the reality after waking up?

Or waking up from a dream?

Especially when he heard the old man say "No...Iseeyou.", he was indeed a little creepy.

In the dream, it is the future world 600 years later.

It is impossible for anyone to know him.

But the old man's smile was very charming, as if he had found a treasure, obtained an answer, and figured out a long-standing mystery.

No...Iseeyou literally translates to "Now...I see you."

Used in that context, it means more like "Now...I have found you."

"There was something wrong with this dream from the beginning."

Lin Xian walked around in the huge high-end suite, and his mind began to summarize the short but rich dream just now.

More than twenty years of previous dream experience.

Lin Xian knew very well.

He appeared suddenly in the future world, just like jumping out of a stone. It can also be understood as appearing in the square, on the stone path, or on the dirty and smelly land in an instant.

He does not belong to the world 600 years later.

He is an outsider.

No one should have known or realized that he would suddenly appear there.

"After all, I can't even tell when I fall asleep."

Sometimes Lin Xian goes to bed at eight or nine o'clock, sometimes at eleven or twelve o'clock, and at the earliest, he goes to bed at one or two o'clock at noon.

When he falls asleep, he will dream and appear in the future world 600 years later.

No one could accurately predict the time when he would fall asleep, not even himself.

And in this case...

The dozens of soldiers with guns actually ambushed him accurately.

"That is to say..."

"They have probably been ambushing me here since noon or even in the morning, waiting for me to appear. Not only do they know the time when I enter the dream, but they also know the exact location where I enter the dream and refresh."

This conclusion surprised Lin Xian.

How is this done?

Then I think back to what the soldier captain said when he arrested me. He mentioned a series of inexplicable charges, including...

The crime of disrupting time and space.

That is to say.

The other party even knows that he is a time traveler!

"Totally exposed."

Lin Xian frowned.

This was an unprecedented crisis he had ever encountered.

Everything indicates that the worst has happened.

He, 600 years later, on August 28, 2624——

Locked by the enemy. 】

And the so-called enemy.

There is no doubt that it was the old man who finally took off his hood.

Lin Xian closed his eyes.

I recall the appearance of that old man in my mind...

This was not any old man he knew. Both his facial features and body shape were very unfamiliar.

The skin is much better than that of the elderly in real life, but after all, as we age, we still inevitably have dryness and some wrinkles.

Huh?

wrong.

wrinkle!

Lin Xian suddenly discovered a blind spot!

Whether it is the second dream, the third dream, or the fourth dream, humans have long mastered advanced genetic modification technology and beauty technology. The people in these three dreams are all as beautiful as sculptures and have good skin. As white as snow and smooth as a baby.

Such a withered old man appears in the world 600 years later...

\u003e

Very inconsistent.

The painting style is inconsistent.

"That is to say..."

"This old man... is probably not from that era!"

clatter.

Lin Xian stopped.

He opened the glass door leading to the balcony, walked out of the room, and bathed in the moonlight of the imperial capital.

Now the time is coming to September.

It’s already the end of summer.

But the heat in the air has not dissipated. It seems that it will continue to be hot until after October, and then it will gradually cool down.

But Lin Xian was wrapped in the residual summer heat, but he kept feeling the loss of security.

he guessed.

This old man is most likely a "person from the old times" who traveled 600 years in the future in a hibernation cabin.

Zhao Yingjun in the third dream can actually undergo plastic surgery to become younger and more beautiful.

But she didn't do that.

Not only her, but if it were Lin Xian, he would not use beauty techniques to make himself as handsome as a sculpture.

This is probably the "mark of the times" from the old era.

People of every era have their own aesthetics and persistence.

In the current era of 2023, there are only a few people who can accept plastic surgery. The vast majority of people would rather look average than undergo plastic surgery.

In this day and age, how many elderly people are willing to have their skin lifted and whitened?

Sure, but not many.

Most of the old people around Lin Xian prefer the fairy-like, majestic and old appearance so that they can give more convincing guidance to the country.

There's nothing special about this, it's understandable. To put it bluntly, it's just a conceptual issue in the bones.

Therefore, Lin Xian made a guess.

The old man in the fourth dream should have come from an earlier era; and the reason why he woke up 600 years later and chose to live on August 28, 2624... was most likely to catch himself.

Catch yourself, the historical sinner who opposes humanity, harms the earth, and disrupts time and space!

"Inexplicable."

Lin Xian believes that he has never done anything harmful to nature, and he believes that his three views are upright, and he will not do such things that endanger mankind and the earth. As for disrupting time and space...who can say for sure? And who can tell?

"There's no point thinking about it now."

Lin Xian shook his head.

No more worrying about whether these things are available or not.

The biggest problem he encounters now is——

How to break the situation?

in the past.

he is dreaming

Although the environment cannot be said to be lawless, it is not much different. At least he is free. He can go wherever he wants and do whatever he wants.

But in the fourth dream.

Even the most basic freedoms have been taken away.

As soon as he entered the dreamland, he was surrounded by dozens of armed soldiers who had been ambushed in advance. Even if the Terminator T800 came, he would not be able to break through... Unless Ultraman really comes, everyone will be beaten into a sieve.

Even if you give yourself a little time to escape and develop, it's okay.

But the enemy is not so kind.

Not a second to yourself.

After the arrest warrant was read out, he was electrocuted until he fainted, then put on a hood and handcuffed.

Everyday dreams are like this... It's really no different from going to jail.

"We have to find a way to break the situation."

Lin Xian took a deep breath.

Slowly spit it out...

Now he has completely calmed down.

think carefully.

Things weren't as bad as he thought.

Since the enemy needs to catch him 600 years in the future, it means that he was not caught 600 years ago. 】

This just proves that you are safe now.

Thinking of this, Lin Xian felt inexplicably interesting.

Some time ago, while playing cat and mouse game...

Reality is dangerous, but dreams are safe. You need to rely on operations in dreams to save reality;

Well now, it’s completely the other way around:

Reality is safe, but dreams are dangerous. Instead, you need to use real-life operations to save dreams!

"interesting."

Lin Xian smiled.

After his thoughts became clear, he immediately thought of two ways to break the situation:

1. Find a way to cause time and space to change again, rewrite the future from now on, directly skip the fourth dreamland, and come to the fifth dreamland.

Although I don’t know what the fifth dream will be like.

But no matter how bad it is, it can't be worse than the fourth dream, right?

In the fourth dream state, where the enemy directly squats on the spawn point, it is impossible to play. Any endgame is better than this dream state.

But then again...

This method can only treat the symptoms, not the root cause; it can save you for a while, but not for the whole life.

To cut weeds, we must remove the roots.

If we want to completely solve this exposure crisis, we must adopt the second method——

2. Find the reason why you were exposed, find out the true identity of the old man in 2023, and get rid of him.

This is the real way to treat both the symptoms and the root cause.

This is the real battle on a time scale.

At this moment.

--\u003e\u003e

Lin Xian once again realized the importance of the laws of time and space.

Huang Que is right.

Only by understanding more laws of time and space can we gain greater advantages in battles on this scale of time and space.

Overturn the future in history, and snipe the past in the future.

"You have to be one step ahead of the enemy."

"The me in 2624 has been targeted by the enemy, but not in 2023. At this level, the me in 2023 is the real key... I must take the initiative to find the reason for the exposure and the true identity of the old man in order to support the dream. , rewrite the future! ”

Figured it out.

Lin Xian also had a complete plan in his heart.

Currently, he still has a few trump cards that he has yet to unleash.

One is the super artificial intelligence VV, which is its most powerful weapon. Although it may not be enough to see the future 600 years later, VV will be the strongest in 2023.

Another trump card is Liu Feng's cosmological constant, the secret and truth of 42; Lin Xian still firmly believes that the cosmological constant 42 is the key to everything and the truly powerful force.

It's just that 42, the ultimate killer, is too mysterious, and the battle line is too long.

"Don't think too much, just take it step by step."

Lin Xian turned from the balcony and walked into the house.

Tomorrow morning, he and Chu Shanhe will take a private plane back to Donghai.

After arriving in Donghai, it's still early, and it should be around one or two o'clock in the afternoon when they get home.

He plans to try it in his dream at that time.

If the enemy's ambush did not start before 12:42 noon, then he still has a chance to escape the ambush.

...

Boom————

The Gulfstream plane took off from the business jet base of the Imperial Capital Airport and soared into the clouds, shrinking the land of the Imperial Capital full of historical traces into concentric squares one by one...gradually submerged in the clouds.

Lin Xian propped his elbows on the glass window, looking at the surging clouds outside the window, thinking about what happened in yesterday's dream.

My own secret.

How was it exposed?

"Lin Xian?"

Suddenly.

A call from Chu Shanhe on the opposite side brought Lin Xian back to his senses.

Chu Shanhe looked at Lin Xian:

"What's wrong, Lin Xian? You look worried. Were you shocked by meeting Dean Gao Yan this time?"

"No, no."

Lin Xian smiled:

"I'm thinking about something else, about personal privacy... I feel that in today's society, with the support of various high technologies and big data, everyone seems to have no privacy or secrets, just like being transparent and feeling insecure."

"I see."

Chu Shanhe smiled slightly:

"You are worried about the World Hacker Competition."

Lin Xian was stunned:

"No, I'm not talking about that. But..."

He suddenly became interested:

"But what is the World Hacker Competition you mentioned? Does it have anything to do with the personal privacy and personal secrets I just mentioned?"

"Isn't it?" Chu Shanhe was also surprised. He looked at Lin Xian and said:

"I thought you were worried about this. There has been a lot of noise on the Internet recently, and it has alarmed national security."

As he said that, he picked up the tablet on the bar of the private plane.

This private plane is equipped with a satellite network system, so even if it is high in the stratosphere, it can still connect to the network signal.

After some operation, Chu Shanhe handed over the tablet:

"It's this year's World Hacker Competition. It's different from the past when no one paid attention to it... This year it's a big deal."

Lin Xian took the tablet and looked at the news on it.

"The 2023 World Hacker Competition is about to be held!

The news content said that this year's World Hacker Competition Pn2On will be held in New York, USA, on September 17th, more than ten days later.

When Lin Xian saw this name, he remembered it.

Although he didn't pay much attention to the field of hacking, he had heard of the famous competition Pn2On.

Pn2On, generally known as the World Hacker Competition, is the most famous and lucrative hacker competition in the world.

This competition is organized by the Pentagon's cybersecurity service provider in the United States. It is held once a year and can be said to be a feast for computer technology enthusiasts around the world.

In this competition, the teams of all parties showed their magical powers and carried out security attacks and intrusions on major security organizations and Internet companies in the world, with the winning standard being to obtain control authority.

For a long time, world-class giants such as Google, Microsoft, Apple, and Adobe have sponsored this event every year, with the goal of allowing hackers to exploit vulnerabilities to attack their products, and thereby further improve the products and promote network security.

In general, this is a very positive and energetic competition that promotes global network security awareness and technology improvement.

It is not the kind of game that most people intuitively think of, where a group of hackers gather together to cause damage and pranks.

At the same time

The performance of each participating team on Pn2On also represents the strength of its country's network attack and defense technology.

Whether it is the national level or the level of computer enthusiasts, they are more concerned about this annual event.

Seeing this, Lin Xian raised his head and looked at Chu Shanhe:

"I know this competition well. The champions in previous years have broken through Google vulnerabilities, Microsoft systems, cracked Apple phones, etc.; Dragon Country's Tencent team and 360 team--\u003e\u003e

It seems that they have won the championship for two years... Is there anything special this year?"

Chu Shanhe pointed to the screen:

"Swipe your finger to see the next news."

Lin Xian lowered his head and slid to the next news according to Chu Shanhe's gesture-

"The World Hacker Competition is on the verge of a sword! The American genius boy aims at the Dragon Country Skynet! ?

Lin Xian looked at the UC-style news headline in confusion and couldn't help but read on.

Skynet, as the name suggests, must refer to the Dragon Country's famous Skynet monitoring system].

As the saying goes, the Skynet is vast and nothing can escape it.

The existence of the Dragon Country Skynet system makes it impossible for criminals to hide.

The early Skynet system only monitored public areas through technical means such as cameras and sensors.

With the maturity of computer technology and big data technology in recent years, the Skynet system has been continuously innovated and upgraded. Today's Skynet system is powerful enough.

Functions such as portrait recognition, gait recognition, fuzzy recognition, and tracking are already very basic; the most powerful function of Skynet is still resource collection and information analysis.

Throughout the Dragon Kingdom, there are at least billions of various devices connected to the Skynet system, not only the most basic cameras, but also recording systems, sensor systems, and some household equipment.

Today's Skynet system has formed a complete and complex huge data ecosystem, which includes the whereabouts, information, preferences, history, and daily life of more than one billion people in the Dragon Kingdom.

If this system is breached by hackers...

The consequences are completely unimaginable.

The confidential information of all countries and citizens will be exposed, not just in the past, but even every minute and second in the future. The Skynet system can change from the patron saint of the Dragon Kingdom to the trump card in the hands of the enemy, monitoring more than one billion people. Every move of a person.

Only then did Lin Xian understand why the World Hacking Competition, which few people paid attention to before, was so discussed this year.

Behind the news, it was written that a talented hacker boy named Kevin Walker appeared in the United States.

He is only sixteen years old and has already achieved "prominence" in the field of hacking. He not only hacked into the Pentagon's network security system, but also invaded the defense systems of many countries.

But this talented hacker boy has never done any damage.

He does these things purely to show off his skills or out of boredom. After each intrusion, the vulnerabilities and repair methods are packaged and left in the server, hiding the merits and fame...

But this time, Kevin Walker, who has never appeared in public or revealed his true identity, unexpectedly announced with a high profile that he would join the American team in the "2023 World Hacking Competition", and also announced that he would be in the final free display session. Under the attention of the whole world, he invaded and controlled the Dragon Kingdom Skynet system.

One stone stirs up a thousand waves.

This provocative declaration directly detonated the tennis circles of the Dragon Kingdom and the United States.

Click.

Lin Xian pressed the lock screen button and returned the tablet to Chu Shanhe:

"It would be terrible if this kid...well, the genius hacker kid invades the Dragon Kingdom's Skynet system."

"Yes...but I think it's highly unlikely."

Chu Shanhe took the tablet and smiled disapprovingly:

"The Skynet system is a security moat. How can it be so easy to invade? And this time, the superiors also attach great importance to this matter. This World Hacking Competition is specially led by the National Security Agency, and two experts are seconded from the Penguin and 360 teams. , also specifically seconded from the Information Technology Department

We recruited three top experts to form a team and go to New York to participate in this hacking competition. "

"This time, the superiors also issued a death order. It doesn't matter whether we can win or not. Victory or failure is a matter of military strategists. But... we must definitely defend against the possible attack of the United States on the Skynet system. This face must not be lost."

"So don't worry. The five contestants sent out this time are all our country's top computer talents. In order to protect their safety, the National Security Agency has sent a special team and special aircraft for personal protection. It is related to the status of the country. There is no room for carelessness and dignity.”

Lin Xian also nodded affirmatively.

yes……

The United States is so aggressive and provocative. It doesn't matter whether you win or lose the competition. The Skynet system must be defended, otherwise it will be really embarrassing.

Of course, that's what it says.

The country must be trying its best to win, otherwise why would they send out even the top players who want to win?

"With the current development of AI technology, the Skynet system is becoming more and more powerful."

Chu Shanhe said:

"Some time ago, I heard that the police in one place simply used a sketch and portrait drawn based on the victim's description and entered it into the Skynet system to directly identify the suspect; in another case, the criminals ran away. After thirty or forty years, I couldn't find it anywhere. Finally, I entered the criminal's childhood photos into the Skynet system. Skynet directly used artificial intelligence to generate the appearance of the criminal when he grew up to be forty or fifty years old, and soon used the Skynet identification system. Someone is caught."

Listening to Chu Shanhe's talk.

Lin Xian reacted instantly...

face recognition,

Sketches,

Photos of childhood are generated to look like adults,

AI technology,

this!

Isn’t this what I have all?

Since AI, such as the Skynet system, has just started, it can generate the appearance of a prisoner when he grows up and capture it through photos taken when he was a child.

That VV who is a super artificial intelligence!

Why can't we restore the appearance of the mysterious old man when he was young through his sketches? --\u003e\u003e

Then lock him in now in 2023! 】

Although Lin Xian is not sure whether the old man was born in 2023.

But you might as well give it a try!

"You're right."

Lin Xian smiled slightly and looked at Chu Shanhe:

"AI artificial intelligence is still very useful."

…

Four hours later, the Gulfstream plane landed at Pudong International Airport.

Chu Shanhe's driver and Lin Xian's driver were waiting here early, and they went back to their respective homes.

After returning home.

Lin Xian took out a laptop with VV130,000 lines of code written on it.

Now……

It's time to activate VV.

The cold fusion manuscript has been sent out, and the fourth dream has been broken. Now there is no need to worry.

You can write the last 10 lines of code in VV.

Plug in the laptop and turn it on.

Lin Xian looked at the lower right corner. Both the network connection icon and the Bluetooth icon had a red cross.

Because he had removed the wireless network card module and Bluetooth module of this laptop before, and wanted to wait for VV to stabilize before connecting to the Internet.

Before the Internet, VV would definitely be trapped in this computer and unable to get out, which was safer.

Open those 130,000 lines of code.

Lin Xian quickly typed the last 10 lines of code.

"call……"

Take a deep breath.

finally.

He wants to bring the gift that Zhao Yingjun left to him 600 years later to turn defeat into victory back to 600 years ago!

Snapped!

Lin Xian pressed the last Enter key——

Swish, swish, swish.

The code on the screen flies

scroll!

soon!

Then, in the next second, all the interfaces disappeared without a trace.

None of the open programs on the laptop.

very quiet.

It's like it's just been turned on.

but……

Lin Xian had an inexplicable feeling.

He seemed to feel his heartbeat,

I feel the breath,

Felt a pulse.

I feel the time,

feel the warmth,

I felt a greeting spanning 600 years:

"Hello, VV."

Lin Xian said softly.

"Hello, Lin Xian."

The laptop instantly made an emotionless mechanical sound, pale and empty, like a radio that had lost its memory.

The next second.

The entire laptop screen went black and all the indicator lights disappeared.

But at the same time……

Lin Xian heard a whisper in his ear:

"haven't seen you for a long time."

He turned back suddenly!

Discover……

There is nothing behind, beside, or even below.

There was just a wireless headset hanging on the wall, and the power indicator light turned on out of thin air.

"VV?"

Lin Xian turned around twice and couldn't find the source of the sound:

"Where are you?"

Suddenly.

Everything in the house that made a sound—

Electronic alarm clocks, TVs, mobile phones, Tmall Genie, SITCH, smart rice cookers, electronic scales, speakers, tablets, wireless headphones, sweeping robots, dishwashers, thermometers and hygrometers, clocks, and refrigerators all vibrate slightly at the same time:

"I'm...everywhere."
