"Ladies and gentlemen, this is ABC Morning News. Today is the day before Christmas, but it's also the darkest day in our history...
"None of us expected that a new worm virus would appear out of nowhere and attack our network on this day, paralyzing our communications, plunging the entire continent into a medieval era of twenty-four hours of no communication.
"According to investigations by various countries, this is indeed a terrorist attack, causing a total economic loss of three hundred billion US dollars. It's the largest and most damaging computer virus in history. At present, no one or organization has claimed responsibility for this incident..."
On the second day after the dust had settled, the television and online media were all over the news of what happened in Northern America. Many people speculated that this incident was likely the work of a hacker or a hacker organization.
Moreover, this virus was controllable. Other than Northern America, everything was normal in the other continents. The fact that no computers in the continent were infected with this virus was the best evidence.
Moreover, the virus only existed for twenty-four hours. After twenty-four hours, all the computer viruses in Northern America disappeared. This was like a miracle, shocking all the programmers.
Nevertheless, all the continents and even the Earth Federation were wary of this.
After all, if the culprit was able to attack the Northern American network and paralyze the entire continent, then if the culprit was not happy about it, the other continents would not be spared.
No one wanted to be held hostage and have the Sword of Damocles hanging over their heads.
Therefore, the Earth Federation was mobilized on this day, determined to find the organization that paralyzed the entire continent even if the sky fell and the earth collapsed.
Unfortunately, after that day, the mysterious organization that attacked the Northern American communication network went into hiding again...
On the other side, there was also bad news in Northern America. The violent agency of the Earth Federation — the Los Angeles branch of the Federal Bureau of Investigation in Northern America was massacred by the mafia.
One hundred and fifty-three people in the entire department were assassinated on this day. None of them survived, including four high-ranking members of the FBI...
However, to prevent further panic, this news was eventually concealed by the Federation.
At this moment, many people faintly guessed that the Northern American worm virus incident on this day was inextricably linked to the FBI incident.
The mysterious organization must have killed so many people to hide some kind of secret.
Therefore, in the next few months, the entire Northern American Continent fell into a state of panic. Under the calm surface, undercurrents were surging. Countless federal investigators were dispatched to secretly inquire about all information related to this matter.
Unfortunately, this was bound to be a futile effort.
One week later.
Chen Chen took an international flight and arrived at a small city called San Diego near Los Angeles in North America.
In the end, he did not order the three statues to be transported back to Namibia because he suddenly thought of something.
If the Earth Federation had previously located the three statues in the general direction of Northern America, then did this mean that once Chen Chen transported the three statues back to Africa, the Earth Federation would also receive the same information?
If that was really the case, then it would be like going for wool and coming home shorn.
If the Earth Federation were to find out that he was the hacker who had attacked the Northern American communication network some time ago, there was nothing he could say. He would be completely crushed.
Even if Chen Chen did all of this for the sake of humanity, it was useless.
Therefore, it was enough to prove that Chen Chen's current level of force was not enough to make the Earth Federation hesitate to act. He did not have the power to challenge him.
Chen Chen did not dare to risk being discovered by the Earth Federation, so he did not bring the three statues back to Africa.
Still, these three statues had to be dealt with eventually. Otherwise, what happened in Elysium's dimension would be the fate of humanity today.
As for studying the statues, Chen Chen did not even dare to think about it for the time being. Previously, X-112 said that with the current technology of mankind, they did not even understand the basic principles of the three statues, let alone more advanced applications.
Under the Black Knight's guidance, Chen Chen came to a manor and then walked into the manor's basement.
Although this manor was rented, it was very luxuriously decorated. At the same time, there was also a huge basement. At this time, there was a desk in the basement with a laptop on the desk.
Next to the desk, there were the three strange-looking statues, suspected to be from Elysium's dimension.
This was the first time Chen Chen faced the three statues directly.
Previously, he had been remotely controlling the artificial intelligence X-112 in Elysium's dimension to analyze the three statues, but it was clear that Chen Chen's doubts had not been reduced in the slightest. Instead, they had expanded.
Looking at these three statues, Chen Chen had a ridiculous idea for the first time in his mind — so far, he had basically calculated that these three statues usually did not have any ability to move, think, or attack. If he had not observed everything that happened in Elysium's dimension through the surveillance, Chen Chen could not imagine that these three statues were enough to destroy a civilization.
As for why Chen Chen was so bold, it was because Chen Chen knew how these statues killed people. It seemed to be an electromagnetic wave that traveled at the speed of light. Even if Chen Chen hid on the other side of the earth, it would not help. In this case, he might as well take the initiative to face it.
What was more, it seemed that in order for these three statues to activate a world-destroying power, some predetermined conditions must be met. If they did not meet these conditions, they were just three ordinary stone statues.
As for what the predetermined conditions were, Chen Chen believed that it was the three brains.
Previously in Elysium's dimension, when X-112 was studying the three statues, it found that there were three human brains in the three statues and the owners of the brains had died hundreds of years ago.
However, as the first human in Elysium's dimension to have his brain taken away by a statue, Gross in reality did not die. In other words, it was very likely that the three statues were all empty and there would not be a crisis of extinction for the time being.
Still, this was only a guess after all. Even Chen Chen himself only had a certain degree of confidence, not a hundred percent.
Therefore, in order to eliminate the hidden dangers of this world, Chen Chen only had one choice — that was to open a passage to another dimension and throw the three statues back.
This led to the current scene in the basement.
"Since the world-destroying statues were first discovered in Elysium's dimension, I'll return everything to you now!"
Chen Chen snorted coldly, plugged in the USB drive on the computer, and opened the passage to Elysium's dimension again.
Next, the three Black Knights hugged the three statues and threw them one by one into the passage on the other side of Elysium.
This was probably the most environmentally friendly way to dispose of garbage in the world...
