Interdimensional science and technology starting from cyberpunk

Chapter 213 God created the world and had a day off, while the network supervisor went to work.

Cyber ​​surveillance agent Bryce Morris.

Lille actually doesn't remember much about this person, but there are only a few network surveillance agents in the original game.

This guy's equipment is quite complete. Unlike Lille, who relies on hacking to access the Internet, he is a real elite hacker.

In addition to the facial skin, the rest of his head skin has been transformed into synthetic materials that enhance heat dissipation. This heat dissipation material extends from the deep dive access port on the back of the head to the entire back and two arms.

Such an exaggerated heat dissipation component is enough to illustrate the danger of his work in cyberspace.

Backed by the top organization Network Monitoring, they have the most advanced access warehouses, software and any other tools that may be used when it comes to network work.

Leal glanced at the hacker whose brain was burned not far away, and sat next to Bryce.

"Is there an occupational disease?"

"This is not an occupational disease. Internet surveillance has zero tolerance for cybercrime."

"That doesn't sound harsh to me - you are in Night City now, not Europe."

Zero tolerance for cybercrime sounds awesome, but there is no need to pretend not to see how rampant cybercrime is in Night City.

Bryce choked at these words - this is really what happened.

Attitudes are attitudes, reality is reality.

The attitude is zero tolerance, and the reality is that no one can control it.

".You are calmer than I thought."

"Thanks, I take it you mean, were you scared the shit out of you the first time you were kicked off the internet?"

Bryce's old face darkened: Can you speak?

"Ahem, stop talking nonsense."

"Don't you think you're talking nonsense? Since you didn't catch me, you have a job, right? Talk about things and make quotations."

The stall owner honestly served two portions of Burger King and then stepped aside knowingly.

Lille looked at the fresh Burger King with a twitch in the corner of his eye.

".You like this too?"

Bryce was stunned: "I thought you liked it. Damn it, can you say something nutritious?"

"Then tell me!"

"I said forget it, Burger King, right? All your illegal online activities have been recorded, and network monitoring is in accordance with the law."

Lear interrupted directly: "Are you mistaken? You just said not to talk nonsense?"

Bryce's face turned even darker: "Anyway, your network access permission is banned! What if..."

Leer interrupted again: "Brother, I know you are very capable, can you tell me directly?"

Bryce almost couldn't breathe!

He gave Leal a hard look, then took a vicious bite of his burger.

Then he chewed it viciously a few times, as if he really chewed it up.

When Lille saw this scene, he suddenly thought: He should also make up a legend in the future.

What in Night City, if a person eats a burger alive, someone in the world will die or something.

After taking a few bites of the burger, Bryce said: "You are very talented. Being a mercenary is a waste of your talent. Just help the network supervisor."

"What's going on? Please be more detailed."

“Last year—seven months ago to be precise, a fat middleman caused trouble in Taiping Prefecture, and then Black Wall came under attack.

Wait, you know what a blackwall is, right? "

This matter will start in 2022.

Before June 13, 2022, the world still used the Internet extensively, and people communicated, shared, or monitored through this large-scale network.

Before that, people were still exploring the possibilities of AI, and the AI ​​industry was booming.

On that day, Bartmos, known as the "Hacker God", released a virus that prompted the AI ​​that served people to awaken to self-awareness and become extremely aggressive.

These AIs will attack humans on the Internet indiscriminately, and even control machines within their authority to carry out attacks, including a large number of military weapons.

From that day on, the Internet became a restricted area, full of aggressive AI.

No matter who it is, as long as they access the cyberspace, they will be attacked and killed by AI indiscriminately.

This incident once made people afraid to access the network: after all, even if it is a subnet, it is difficult to say whether AI will remotely invade the network through what device.

And once it is touched, it will either die or be disabled.

The loss of the Internet lasted for nearly 20 years. During these 20 years, a British company called Internet Monitoring tried to control the situation several times but failed.

Until that day came 20 years later, Internet Monitoring claimed that it had recruited 10 network security experts to jointly build this thing called the black wall.

The black wall "isolates" circulating AI from the normal network, allowing giant companies to have breathing space and begin to rebuild their own local area networks.

After reviewing the history, Lear replied: "You know - the most awesome consumer AI software."

Yes, the name "black wall" is a name that conforms to normal human logic and can very well help people understand its function:

Like a wall that separates the dangerous old net.

But the Internet is not a real space, and the black wall is not really a wall.

In essence, it is a kind of AI, a kind of intelligent "disinfection" software.

It stands between the normal network and the collapsed old network, indiscriminately attacks and blocks any information flow with the characteristics of flowing AI, and attacks any individual who intends to access the old network.

It can be said that the current world is equivalent to having such a super AI connected to all local area networks. This AI will eliminate other AIs that should not appear, making the network operation safe and stable.

Because of the existence of blackwalls, other companies have also defaulted to network monitoring in cyberspace, and usually have a slightly higher level of law enforcement authority.

Bryce nodded in praise: "You still have some knowledge, and I quite like your statement.

I really hate what the propaganda says.”

"Tell the point, buddy, tell the point." Lear found that this guy was actually a bit talkative.

Bryce's old face was serious: "Let's get to the point: I want to find and eliminate the cyber criminals who launched the attack on the black wall, and you can help me.

The reward is access to the network. "

It's much simpler this time.

But Lille shook his head: "No, I can hack as many people as I want with the network access permission. Rather than having you grab the network access permission number, I would rather do it myself."

Bryce's cooling fins almost unfolded!

Fortunately, Lille quickly added: "But, I have heard about the Black Wall for a long time, and helping you is just helping humanity——

I don’t want any money, I just have one request: send me a copy of your network supervisor’s hacking teaching materials. "

Braxton paused, a little surprised: Lille didn't want money, but knowledge!

This was different from the street kids he imagined and came into contact with.

He thought about some of the judgments about Lille in the report and said slowly:

"You know, knowledge is difficult to measure with money. If you have the heart to learn, you might as well join the network monitoring directly."

"If you don't do it, you are a fool who is forced to work 24 hours a day by the idea of ​​'contributing to mankind'. God created the world and had weekends off."

Bryce almost stopped talking - you just said this job is great!

But he won't be angry about this - people don't have the energy to be angry when they are really hurt.

"Correction, God only rested for one day when he created the world." Bryce waved to the stall owner, "Here's a bottle of Rainbow Manticore."

Bryce took the drink, opened the can, and drank heavily.

"So it's a deal?" Lear asked tentatively, "It's so hard, why don't you drink some wine?"

“Drinking alcohol affects nerve sensitivity and can cause fluctuations in computing power—you may have to work overtime for a while.

I can give you some information, but only in my own name. Secondly, don’t talk about cybercrime in front of me! "

"Deal - I didn't expect that corporate dogs can also have people who are easy to deal with. Where do we start? Do we have a clear goal?"

Bryce did not answer immediately, but fell silent.

Lille was a little confused.

Bryce said slowly: "No."

The air was silent for a moment, and you could only hear the advertisements of the vending machines, the conversations of people inside, and the curses of drunkards.

Lear planned to get up and leave——

"Don't go!" Bryce grabbed Lear hurriedly, "Originally, there was, but it's all your fault for what happened in the company square!"

Leal sat back.

That's about it.

It startled him, and he thought this network surveillance agent was a loser.
