At this time, the image of [Bold Explorer] came to an abrupt end, and his vision returned to the warehouse.
His palm left the cold shell of the triangular device. Han Xiao stood where he was and silently looked at the device in front of him.
He remained silent and did not move at all. Harrison did not know what was going on, but he could sense that the atmosphere was getting heavier.
He asked cautiously, "Your Excellency Black Star, what's wrong?"
"… Nothing."
Han Xiao came back to his senses, glanced at him, and walked out of the warehouse. Harrison hurriedly followed.
"Go do your thing. Don't follow me."
"Oh, okay."
Harrison hurriedly left as if he had been pardoned.
Although Black Star was not doing anything, Harrison could not help but feel immense pressure just by being by his side.
After sending Harrison away, Han Xiao returned to his room and recalled the secret he had seen earlier. His mind spun rapidly.
"So, the real name of the Virtual Mutiny Virus is the Domino Virus. What a terrifying weapon of war. Any organization that has this technology will be able to win in information warfare …"
He finally understood why the Intelligent Plague still swept across the entire universe in his previous life. It turned out that it was not only because someone was causing trouble but also because the three Universal Civilizations did not manage to stop the invasion of the Domino Virus.
It was not that their technology was not good enough but that they were at a disadvantage in terms of intelligence. The three Universal Civilizations were caught off guard.
After all, who would have thought that the Virtual Mutiny Virus would have such a mechanism?
If he had not seen the true face of the virus from [Bold Explorer], he would have probably been like the three Universal Civilizations, still treating the virus core as a pure data program.
According to normal logic, the virus core was just a switch program to monitor the progress of the overall infection. Therefore, the three Universal Civilizations felt that they were not afraid after creating the antivirus.
Of course, they did not know that the virus core had the ability to self-update and evolve. What they had suppressed so far was only the first generation of the virus. As long as the core was not dealt with, there would be the second generation, the third generation, and so on. Furthermore, the virus would not be lurking next time and would directly cause a mechanical rebellion.
Not only was the infection rate more terrifying than expected, the virus core itself had an extremely shocking ability to escape. It was not limited to data mode, and it could even enter the material world and construct an electromagnetic field as a shell to carry itself. It could freely switch between virtual and reality, and it was not afraid of being blocked on the Internet.
Because the foundation of its existence was a Virtual Soul, the virus core could enter the quantum network without any physical contact. This was similar to the ability of a Beyond Grade A Virtual Mechanic to enter the quantum network at any time. Only when it materialized would it need a node as an exit, which meant that it could use the quantum network to teleport between various nodes.
No wonder I couldn't find any trace of the virus core after so many months. It's probably not because Harrison's halo isn't good enough, but because it's impossible to track it down on the Internet, Han Xiao thought.
This ability was similar to his Void Warp. For the virus core, the quantum network was like another secondary dimension that it could enter and exit at will.
This artificial intelligence civilization should not have reached the Universal Level. The three Universal Civilizations had the ability to analyze all the principles behind the Domino Virus, but they needed a certain amount of time to do so. Therefore, when they first encountered such a virus weapon, there would be a stage where they could not understand it.
The technology tree of each civilization was different, and there would always be some civilizations that developed black technology, such as the Kunde Race's Spacetime Splicer. The three Universal Civilizations' achievements in virtual viruses could not compare to this artificial intelligence civilization. After all, there were specializations, and even their citizens were artificial intelligences, so this was clearly their strongest point.
However, this is amazing. In my previous life, since the three Universal Civilizations successfully resolved the Intelligent Plague, the virus core must have been resolved. Logically speaking, the three Universal Civilizations should have mastered this technology … but why didn't they use it when they were fighting the World Tree?
Han Xiaoxin's head twitched, and he became suspicious.
Could it be … that the virus core did not fall into the hands of the three Universal Civilizations in my previous life but was secretly stolen by someone else?
The next moment, the image of an old man appeared in Han Technician's mind …
Mecha Empire Manison!
This b * stard is the most suspicious!
Han Xiao could not be blamed for thinking this way. Manison had left too deep of an impression on him. This sounded like something Manison would do.
Furthermore, the raw material of the Domino Virus was a mutated artificial intelligence, and Manison happened to be in control of an artificial intelligence civilization.
… It was terrifying to think about!
Han Xiao hurriedly shook his head and got rid of these distracting thoughts.
The three Universal Civilizations had to learn a lot to understand the mechanism of the Domino Virus. Now that I've seen the truth in advance, I can save the process of figuring it out and take precautions!
Thinking of this, Han Xiao heaved a sigh of relief.
In his previous life, the three Universal Civilizations could only figure it out while suffering losses. Now that he had this b * stard who was' reading the strategy ', there was no need for them to repeat the same mistake.
For all he knew, he might be able to resolve the source of the virus when it was still in its first generation, not giving the virus a chance to break out and minimizing the losses!
From the looks of it, the butterfly effect he brought was still more positive.
"The main problem now is to convince the three Universal Civilizations to change their plan of killing the virus on a large scale. Without dealing with the virus core, it's useless no matter how much they kill the virus. Since the virus core's ability is so troublesome, dealing with it will require the cooperation of the three Universal Civilizations … "
The ability to self-evolve was the most terrifying. As long as this was dealt with, the rest would be easy.
He was not afraid of the virus core escaping the Ancient Star Desert, but the quantum network of this Star Field was blocked, which was equivalent to a large local area network. It would not be able to receive the feedback of the Ancient Star Desert virus from the outside.
Even if the virus core did escape, it would still have to log into this sealed network if it wanted to monitor the overall infection situation in the Ancient Star Desert.
This meant that even if the virus core could teleport with the help of the quantum network, its range would be limited to the Ancient Star Desert.
As for whether or not it would spread the virus outside, Han Xiao was not worried. Although the three Universal Civilizations lacked intelligence, they were not incompetent. In order to prevent leakage, they were also scanning the outside world.
If the outside world was infected with the first generation virus on a large scale, the three Universal Civilizations would discover it very quickly.
After secretly analyzing for a while, Han Xiao had some ideas. He summoned Philip and ordered, "Contact the three Universal Civilizations of the Ancient Star Desert.
"Help me arrange a meeting with the people in charge of the disaster command center of the three Universal Civilizations, as well as the other Beyond Grade A Mechanics. I want to have a meeting with them and tell them that I made a huge discovery regarding the virus core …"
…
Half an hour later …
Intelligent Plague Disaster Command Room, upper echelon meeting room.
After receiving Black Star's invitation, everyone put down the work they were doing. Schidrunn, the other two Supervisors, and all the Beyond Grade A Mechanics were present in remote projections to listen to Black Star's discovery.
As soon as Han Xiao's remote projection appeared, Schidrunn immediately asked, "Did you find the virus core?"
"Black Star, did you find the virus core?"
"No, I haven't caught it yet, but I made a major discovery."
Hearing that Han Xiao did not succeed, the people present were both disappointed and relieved. They then became curious about the major discovery Han Xiao mentioned.
"What did you find?"
"It's like this …"
Han Xiao did not beat around the bush and directly explained the mechanism of the virus core, mainly emphasizing the transformation and self-renewal functions.
The threat of the Domino Virus was too high, and solving the disaster together was the most important task. Therefore, he did not plan to hide anything at this time.
After hearing Han Xiao's explanation, everyone present fell silent. They looked at each other, not knowing what expression to make.
Seeing this, Han Xiao continued with a serious expression.
"Therefore, your large-scale anti-virus plan is useless. Only by finding the virus core can the threat of the Intelligent Plague be truly eliminated. I suggest you take action immediately …"
This time, Schidrunn interrupted Han Xiao with a strange expression.
"Black Star, we would like to ask … where did you get all this information from?"
Everyone present had the same thought. They stared at Han Xiao in shock and doubt.
They could not help but be suspicious. This information was too detailed … so detailed that it felt like it was made up!
You're not lying to us, are you?
You're so cunning. It's not impossible!
This is a serious matter. We have to confirm the authenticity of the information. If you don't show us evidence, how can we believe you?
"I knew you would say that."
Han Xiao was not surprised at all and opened his mouth.
"In fact, I found traces of the virus core in the quantum network not long ago. I was about to track and capture it, but the target disappeared from the quantum network without any warning. The clues were cut off because of that … I'm a pinnacle Beyond Grade A Virtual Mechanic, and it actually disappeared right under my nose without me being able to see the mechanism behind it. There are experts here as well, so I don't have to explain how difficult it was. I had my suspicions back then and felt that it was not just a data program."
"And then? How did you find out about this? "Schidrunn asked curiously.
"Your files should have recorded that I have a passive foresight ability. I sensed that the virus core was not simple, and a few days later, I saw the future outbreak of the Intelligent Plague and the scene of countless lives being wiped out. At the same time, I also saw the true face of this virus core." Han Xiao pretended to be helpless. "So, I really can't show you any evidence."
"This … is difficult for us."
The people in charge of the three Universal Civilizations looked troubled.
It was not that they did not believe in Black Star, but foresight was sometimes not accurate. This matter concerned the safety of the entire universe. Without concrete evidence, betting on an illusory foresight was too risky.
Han Xiao did not have much of a choice. He did not have any concrete evidence, so he could only use his foresight ability as an excuse. After all, [Bold Explorer] was not easy to explain. It was not as credible as foresight.
However, although foresight was not convincing, with his current position, even if the people of the three Universal Civilizations did not believe him immediately, they would definitely find a way to verify his words. He did not need to explain too much.
If it was proven to be fabricated, the three Universal Civilizations would naturally lower Han Xiao's credibility. However, before that, they would not immediately treat Han Xiao's words as fake.
After experiencing so many things, Han Xiao's fame, prestige, and authority in the universe were enough for the three Universal Civilizations to take his suggestion seriously.
At this time, Manison slowly said, "I think I have some ideas.
"I feel that Black Star's prediction makes sense. In fact, I also discovered traces of the virus core some time ago, and it also disappeared in front of my eyes. I also suspect that it's not just pure data."
As soon as this was said, Han Xiao's eyelids twitched.
The virus core he encountered was fabricated, but Manison might not be real.
I knew it. Old Manison did make some progress, but he kept it a secret. If not for me tricking him today, this old thing would never have revealed this information.
Tsk, you said I'm not smart enough, but you're even worse. You're still hiding such crucial information!
Everyone looked at each other and silently digested this shocking information.
In the end, it was Schidrunn who coughed and replied.
"No matter what, we'll investigate the content of His Excellency Black Star's foresight. This is very important information."
As he spoke, he glanced at Manison from the corner of his eyes with disdain.
You're the strongest Mechanic in the universe. Why can't you dig up as much information as him? Learn from him!
Manison looked straight ahead and pretended not to see Schidrunn's gaze.
At this time, Kant worriedly said,
"If the Virtual Mutiny Virus is really as Black Star said, then we're in big trouble. The firewall we've built in the past few months will be drilled into a sieve by the next generation of viruses. By then, a disaster will sweep across the universe."
"What kind of civilization developed such terrifying virus technology? Aren't they afraid of getting burned?" Francisco expressed his doubts.
"Regardless of whether Black Star is telling the truth or not, we have to come up with a plan," Quantum Demon Judith, the dynasty's ally, said.
Seeing this, Han Xiao spoke again and said with a deep voice, "That's right. Regardless of whether the prediction is accurate or not, there won't be any problems if we give it a try."
That makes sense … The three Universal Civilizations' representatives looked at each other and nodded at the same time.
"Then, do you have a plan?"
"It's not a plan, just a rough idea."
Han Xiao paused and looked around. Seeing that everyone was looking at him, he slowly said, "The mobility of the virus is too high.
"The virus core is too mobile and difficult to capture, but there are still limitations. It can enter the quantum network at any time, but when it leaves, it has to choose a terminal node as the exit. This might be a breakthrough.
In order to receive feedback from the information packets, the virus core will return to the quantum network from time to time. This time, we might really have to cut off the network on a large scale and reduce the number of terminal nodes. This will limit the range of the virus core and reduce the number of exits it can choose. At every terminal node, we'll arrange people to create traps.
The ambushers have to be Beyond Grade A Virtual Mechanics who have mastered 'Virtual Paramount'. Because after the virus core materializes, it does not need to touch the terminal and can enter the quantum network at any time, so the opportunity is only for a short moment. The moment the virus core materializes, the ambushing Beyond Grade A Mechanics will use 'Virtual Paramount' to suppress the virus core's virtual soul, making it unable to leave the body temporarily.
The technology to seal the virus core is ready-made. That safe prevents the virus core from leaking out, so it will definitely be able to suppress the virus core's virtual soul and prevent it from entering the quantum network. As long as we analyze that triangular container, we'll be able to master this targeted technology … "
Hearing this, everyone could not help but size Han Xiao up again with strange gazes.
Putting aside the feasibility of your plan, just the fact that the ambushers have to be Virtual Mechanics who have mastered [Virtual Paramount] is a little too brazen.
Virtual Paramount is an ability that only Divine Throne Mechanics who specialize in Virtual Mechanics can master. Naturally, it has to be a pinnacle Beyond Grade A. You have one and Manison has one.
So, what you're saying is that only Virtual Green Kings like you can fight for the virus core, and even the three Universal Civilizations have to step aside?
Are you sure you're not tricking us?
Manison, on the other hand, laughed and praised this plan.
"Black Star said it well. It's our duty to maintain the peace of the universe. How many terminal nodes are there that can be used as traps? How about this, I'm willing to mobilize fifty million spare Lord's Avatars and place them in the various nodes, ensuring that I can descend at the location of the virus core at any time. Is that enough? "
