Warhammer III

Taiyue and Sisela spent two days to sort out the laboratory. They found several useful things, including a magnetic flask and instruments for malicious code testing, in addition to three parchment manuscripts filled with test records.

A tiny transistor analogue was imprisoned in the magnetic flask, but it was not composed of silicon wafers, but of subspace crystals.

"This should be the container that carries the corrupted code!"

Sisela held up the magnetic flask with both hands and looked at it carefully.

"Theoretically, the logic circuit of the transistor can also be realized through subspace crystals. Its own operating current is replaced by subspace energy. The psychic rune can be said to be the simplest logic circuit, but this is the first time I have seen this thing."

Sisela put forward his own guess while releasing psychic energy to try to activate the creation inside.

A harsh sound came from the transistor analogue, and it became transparent as if it had disappeared, and then a large amount of pink binary code appeared. The transistor analogue inside was activated by Sisela's psychic energy.

Seeing this, Taiyue decided to connect the tester to the magnetic flask. He first fixed the magnetic flask, then connected the data line of the tester's data input port to the top of the magnetic flask, and finally opened the double-layer isolation device on the top of the flask.

The tester's display normally displayed the code contained in the instrument at first, but soon it kept prompting errors. The original code was modified unknowingly. The tester finally jammed directly, leaving only binary code to form a blasphemous text:

"The Warmaster will lead us to build a new human empire, a new world without research taboos and full of hope."

The transistor analog in the magnetic flask lost its activity again and lay at the bottom of the flask like a dead object.

Taiyue combined the experimental records in the parchment manuscript with the practical results in front of him and made his own inference:

"The corrupt code or malicious code is essentially a subspace energy with logic circuit functions, not a simple logic virus. It can affect the specific underlying code of the machine in a targeted manner, specifically affecting the most basic storage unit of the machine. The storage units of many devices of the Mechanicus are electron capture memory or transistor capacitor memory. The former represents 1 and 0 by whether the dielectric has captured electrons, and the latter represents 1 and 0 by whether the capacitor is charged. Both storage units can be affected by the subspace energy carrying the corrupt code, thereby changing the underlying code and the machine is corrupted!"

Sisela nodded, she reached out and touched the tester, and the golden subspace energy covered every part of the machine, and the malicious code was directly cleared by her.

The tester was restarted immediately, and the solidified data refreshed the changed code.

"If the corrupt code affects the solidified data, this machine will be completely useless."

A few days later, the Great Sage Kaul sent Taiyue the completion requirements for the malicious code:

Successfully develop psychic runes that can shield the corrupt code;

Successfully develop a psychic device that can capture the corrupt code;

Complete one of the two tasks.

After receiving the task, Taiyue consulted the relevant knowledge recorded in the Temple of Omniscience every day and devoted himself to the development of the psychic device. Sisela also took the initiative to assist him in related experiments.

The more he learned, the more questions Tai Yue had. As a subspace crystal formed in his palm, he asked Phoenix:

"If the intelligent code is applied to the subspace crystal, will my void creation have intelligence?"

"In theory, it is feasible. The ten subspace structures of the ancient saints are intelligent. Each subspace structure has a different form of intelligence. Needless to say, the four evil gods, the webway that can quickly cross the galaxy is also intelligent. It can automatically sense the dangers inside the webway and at the entrances and exits, and can slowly repair the damaged webway entrances. The space dead spirits that enter the webway through the tombstone gate are its priority targets, and once the danger is determined, the webway can even automatically close those dangerous entrances and exits."

Phoenix agreed with Tai Yue's idea.

(The official novel "Wolfsbane" has described the corruption code, but it is all written in a metaphysical way. It's too difficult for me to talk about science seriously in the world of 40k. Please recommend and vote!)
