Genius club

Lin Xian's heart rate suddenly soared!

Press and hold the Bluetooth headset with your right hand! Close to the cochlea!

At this time, in the noisy venue... I could even hear my own breathing!

However……

Since that sudden sound, there has been no other sound.

Lin Xian slowly straightened up.

That was just now...

Kevin Walker's voice?

He said exactly the same lines as the mysterious old man in the fourth dream.

Did they also lock themselves in 600 years ago?

So when did you get exposed?

Was it when he took off the mask of the substitute in front of him, or earlier, even before he came to the United States?

"Don't panic, Lin Xian."

In the Bluetooth headset, after the arrogant, contemptuous and childish voice disappeared for more than ten seconds, VV's child-like voice came:

"We were not exposed. I let him in deliberately.]"

VV told Lin Xian.

That burst of laughter that erupted from all the electronic devices in the stadium was indeed started by Kevin Walker.

The reason why it is so sure that it is Kevin Walker is because it can't find the source at all following the data. This is the best evidence. Only Kevin Walker on this planet has such hacking technology, so even VV can't find it. arrive.

"But the line "I see you" just now was not played to the whole audience, but only to your earphones. I noticed his attacks and traces early on, so I thought I could easily intercept them. But...since he If he only attacks you, what's the difference between intercepting and not intercepting him? It's all aimed at you anyway, so why not just let him in and see what he has to say."

"But I'm pretty sure that Kevin Walker didn't discover my existence, nor could he find me. Hide and seek, it's always easier to hide than to catch. This is the situation between me and him now, he can't find me I can't find him either. On the contrary, we have an advantage because I am clearly aware of his existence, but he is completely unaware of my existence."

Lin Xian shook his head:

"I believe you are not exposed. You are the product of 600 years of top-notch human technology. I naturally believe it if he can't find you. But... I must have been exposed, otherwise he wouldn't have said this to my earphones alone. "

"Furthermore, there is something I haven't told you before. Kevin Walker's lines are exactly the same as what the mysterious old man said to me 600 years later. Judging from the yin and yang pauses and pronunciation habits, it is most likely the same person. I am a little bit I can’t understand how they did it, how Kevin Walker transmitted information forward and into the past across 600 years.”

…

Lin Xian closed his eyes and thought.

I never thought it was possible to transmit intelligence information in reverse time...

To be honest, there are only two possibilities:

1. People like me can get information about the future in the past through a method similar to dreaming.

2. A time traveler who physically travels from the future to the present, just like an oriole.

Lin Xian admitted.

The moment he heard Kevin Walker's voice in his headphones...

There were literally countless possible traps running through his mind.

For example, it was the future Kevin Walker who caught him first, and then passed this news to the young Kevin Walker in the past in some way that he could not imagine, asking him to kill him in the normal timeline... ...Just like what I have always done, get information from the future, change the present, and rewrite the future.

But now calm down and analyze it carefully.

If Kevin Walker really has this ability, why wait until now? Why bother waiting for him to take off Qiao Sen's hood before he can lock himself?

For me, the fourth dream state only changed a few days ago.

But for this world, that is the established future after 600 years. During this period, there will be a full 601 years of development, a long time.

so.

The old man in the fourth dream must have known his name and the location of his refresh early on; he even knew all the evidence of the crimes he had committed, so how could he not know his appearance, identity, and historical coordinates?

Did it take a few seconds before 00:42 to find out the truth?

If his historical traces are not erased, then he is considered a slightly famous figure in history, and it should be very easy to investigate him.

For a moment, Lin Xian suddenly figured it out.

It is absolutely impossible for that old man to know his appearance and identity only at 00:42 on August 29, 2624. He knew it all the time!

"Tsk."

Lin Xian smacked his lips.

As expected, he had fallen into a blind spot before. He only saw the old man's appearance for the first time after his hood was taken off. And then coupled with the old man's lines, he intuitively mistakenly believed that the old man also appeared at that time. See yourself clearly.

But actually!

I had been exposed long before this day.

only……

Even if it has been exposed long ago,

Even if the mysterious old man already knows his appearance and identity,

But they were still helpless, and it wasn't until August 28, 2624, that they finally caught him by ambushing the birth point--\u003e\u003e

Got to myself.

The connection of these clues is enough to explain two slightly reassuring facts——

1. Now in 2023, Kevin Walker has not received the intelligence information from the mysterious old man 600 years later who first assumed that he was the elderly Kevin. This is completely the result of his temporary persecution paranoia just now. 】

2. He was indeed exposed at some point in the past 600 years, but he still escaped justice and was not caught by the enemy. Therefore, in the end, the mysterious old man could only resort to the last resort and ambush himself on August 28, 2624... But in fact, this was in vain, because this day is an infinite loop, and it is useless to catch him. 】

If the above reasoning is correct.

That means...

Even though he might have been exposed and was targeted by Kevin Walker, it seemed that the other party couldn't do anything to him in a short time.

Otherwise, why not kill yourself directly, why catch yourself in a dream?

"There is a more critical point."

Lin Xian opened his eyes and suddenly realized——

Just fall asleep tonight and see if there are any changes in the dream world! 】

If the dream changes, it proves that he was indeed exposed today and was targeted by Kevin Walker. Then the world line changes drastically, and the future trajectory begins to change from this moment on, entering the fifth dreamland.

If there is still no change in the dream, it means that no matter whether you are really exposed or not, today is not an important time and space anchor point, and the time and space butterfly effect will not occur; either you have been exposed long ago, or you have not been exposed yet.

In short, if the dream does not change, it means that the current situation is as usual and safe, at least... safe for a short period of time.

everything.

I have to wait until I fall asleep tonight to get the answer!

No.

To be precise, it will be after I fall asleep during the day tomorrow.

Lin Xian tried it on the first night he came here. The time of entering and exiting dreams is fixed and has nothing to do with time zone. He doesn't know how it works.

The time difference between New York and the time in Dragon Kingdom Imperial Capital is exactly 12 hours.

Therefore, the Dragon Kingdom time of 00:42 is around 12:42 noon in New York, USA, which is exactly the opposite.

"VV, don't think so absolutely. The enemy may be far more powerful than we imagine."

Lin Xian whispered:

"The loophole I used was also used by Kevin, and it was not ahead of its time; it was reasonable for me to take off Qiao Sen's mask... He provoked me so much, why can't I take off his mask and take a look? This matter changed Everyone would do this. The loopholes in Longguo’s Great Internet Security Wall were patched by Longguo’s technicians themselves; you also left no trace of interfering with Qiao Sen’s attack on the Skynet system and powering off network nodes. Look...Kevin Walker really has no reason to see through my secret."

"However, nothing is absolute... We still can't confirm whether Kevin Walker now in 2023 and the mysterious old man 600 years later are the same person. Unless a real photo of Kevin Walker is found, this matter It will always be an unsolvable mystery.”

"The next time I fall asleep, I will call out Kevin Walker's name in front of the mysterious old man to see his reaction. If he is really Kevin Walker and deliberately stuck at the time of 00:42 Look at me... after your name was called out so suddenly, your eyes should be a bit strange, and your expression should be slightly surprised, right? I'll try to confirm it."

"In short, we still cannot take it lightly. After all, my exposure in the future is a fact. Even if it is not exposed today, there is a high probability that it is related to Kevin Walker. We still have to treat Kevin Walker as an enemy and find a way as soon as possible... Find out his true identity."

"Um."

VV in the Bluetooth headset continued:

"Don't worry, Lin Xian, I know what you're worried about. But with me here, they really won't kill you that easily."

"Although I am not as strong as you think now, I am not as weak as you think.]"

"During this period, sometimes you feel that I am not strong enough. The main reason is that I have to worry about the underlying restrictions of not exposing my identity and leaving no traces. That's why I am very careful everywhere, and I dare not use force, investigate in depth, or Get too close to the enemy."

"But that doesn't mean that I don't have that ability. It's just that I can't fight without leaving traces at the moment. The difference is still very big. If one day, your life is threatened or your life is in danger, then According to the highest priority of the first principle, I can directly ignore the second principle of needing to hide traces... and directly tear up the table and kill! "

"Let alone Kevin Walker. In this era, if I do whatever I want without fear of exposure...then no one or anything can stop me. I can easily bring the whole world to a death."

…

Lin Xian didn't doubt VV's words.

Rather, this super artificial intelligence from 600 years later, the brightest pearl in the history of human science and technology, should have been so powerful.

When Lin Xian complained before, VV was also incompetent and furious every day, and could only frantically open the refrigerator door, washing machine door, and microwave door to vent his anger.

Just like the cyber gangsters surrounding the Dragon Kingdom Internet.

If it is not afraid of leaving traces, VV can easily kill it instantly. Even in its juvenile form, it is far more powerful than the current Kevin Walker.

But considering that I am a "procrastinator", there is no other way.

VV is a data stream. It is not afraid of anything. It is a real body of flesh and blood and is very fragile.

It's easy to dodge open fire and hard to prevent. After all, VV is just a program and a data flow. If it encounters many unexpected situations, it will be equally powerless.

so.

--\u003e\u003e

In the third dream, when Lin Xian and VV were adjusting 130,000 lines of code, they added two restrictive principles to the underlying code for absolute safety:

The first restrictive principle: Lin Xian's personal safety is above all else, and Lin Xian must be protected at all costs and means.

The second limiting principle: You must hide your existence from being discovered, and you must not leave traceable traces under any circumstances.

Follow the logic.

When the first restrictive principle can be guaranteed, the second restrictive principle will naturally prevail.

But if first principles are threatened...

Then the second restrictive principle of VV will be unlocked immediately and will no longer exist.

VV can let go of all restrictions and kill without any worries.

As VV said.

In order to protect its own life, it even takes the whole world to its back.

Lin Xian naturally did not doubt this.

VV must have such strength.

Look at it this way...

Super artificial intelligence VV protects itself at all times. VV can detect most threats and dangers as soon as they appear, and then immediately issue reminders or directly take measures to protect itself.

It still feels very safe.

In addition, the current VV is still growing and evolving, and it will become more and more powerful.

After three months of development, VV can eliminate the Black Hand without leaving any trace. And if it continues to develop, the VV of the adult body, the VV of the complete body, the VV with no upper limit...

Your own upper limit is the upper limit of VV; the upper limit of VV is the upper limit of human civilization.

Now that I have VV to monitor everything around me and protect myself, it is indeed not that easy to kill myself.

but……

Again.

There is no absolute in everything, and there is no big mistake in being careful.

Kevin Walker may have underestimated the other party just like VV. 】

Kevin underestimated VV.

VV may also have underestimated Kevin.

Lin Xian believes that Kevin Walker's purpose is not just that, he must have a deeper motive.

Or...

There are traps hidden somewhere, waiting for you to jump into.

Lin Xian had an intuition that if Kevin Walker was really a genius enough to join the genius club, his methods and conspiracy would not be just that. 】

but.

For now, it is better to finish the things in the United States as soon as possible, go to Einstein's former residence in Princeton to pick up the paintings Ji Lin left for him, and then return to China as soon as possible.

VV also said that in comparison, China is much safer than abroad.

As its iterative evolution becomes stronger and stronger, it will gradually be able to reinforce the Longguo Internet Security Great Wall without leaving any trace, giving them a buffer zone and adding a city wall.

At least, if Kevin Walker really invades one day, Lin Xian will be informed immediately.

"In short, go to Princeton as soon as possible to see if you can find any key clues, and then... redeploy the plan after returning to China."

…

After the wild laughter that resounded throughout the stadium stopped, this exciting and accident-filled "2023 World Hacking Competition" also came to an end.

Under questioning from the host, young Qiao Sen also confessed the fact that he was entrusted by Kevin Walker to participate in the hacking competition:

"The program to invade the Dragon Kingdom Skynet was written by Kevin and asked me to use it in the competition. The latter program to attack the Beidou satellite through the Starlink satellite vulnerability was the reward and appearance fee that Kevin gave me. His original intention They wanted me to exchange for bonuses in other competitions...but I saw that I couldn’t hold on to the championship bonus this time, so I took it out at the last moment.”

At this point, all the truth is revealed.

The host also joked that he wanted to send Kevin Walker a bill to compensate for the broken glass at the venue, but because he couldn't find anyone, he had to ask Johnson to deliver it on his behalf.

Then comes the awards ceremony.

Lin Xian, surrounded by his teammates and team leader, came to the podium together, took the trophy and held it high.

When Huangque saw this scene, she sighed and whispered:

"What a lesson, Lin Xian. Every time I say something, you don't take it seriously. Aren't you going to look in the mirror? The time left for you... is really running out."

Say it.

She patted Chu Anqing's shoulder in front of her:

"Okay, the game is over. You can go directly down from here to find Lin Xian."

Chu Anqing turned her head and looked into the woman's crystal blue pupils:

"Sister, won't you go together?"

"I won't go."

Huang Que shook his head and smiled:

"I've taken the initiative to find him several times, how can I spoil him like this every time? This time... I'm just waiting for him to take the initiative to come to me."

ah?

Chu Anqing blinked her eyes and looked confused:

"Sister, are you...are you a relative of Lin Xian? A cousin, a sister-in-law, something like that?"

"Not really."

Huang Que shook his head and touched Chu Anqing's head:

"Okay, let's go."

She pushed Chu Anqing forward:

"If you don't hurry up, they will leave backstage."

Say it.

She waved her hand, turned around, and swayed in the windbreaker in the early autumn wind. Her shiny blue earrings swayed crystal clear, and she walked towards the exit of the stadium behind her on her clicking high heels.

"Wait...wait a minute!"

An Qing turned around and looked at--\u003e\u003e

The graceful figure disappearing in the distance:

"Sister, I don't know your name yet, how should I call you!"

clatter.

Oriole stopped.

She smiled slightly and turned back.

She pushed back her wind-blown hair and looked at Chu Anqing who looked serious:

"Next time we meet, just call me Huangque."

"Don't be so anxious, little princess, we will meet again soon..."
