Gunfire, Punk & Necromancers

Chapter 669 Chapter 665 Are there any survivors?
There is no obstacle from the computing power network of the public work point to the work network of the puppet execution, which allows the autonomous sensing tentacles to discover a huge, uncultivated land. They grow and replicate madly here, and at the same time gain more "export space".

As long as there are twenty execution puppets within a four-kilometer range, and there are no lead plates, oil layers or other barriers between them that seriously reduce the efficiency of the shadow slaves, then this place can support the appearance of sensory tentacles, and its effect and effect are completely equivalent to a social public work point. Therefore, Zhuang Xuteng's spell has gained a greater coverage ability, and it can definitely search, find and kill every person who meets the conditions and uses the shadow slave equipment without leaving any blind spots.

If it was just to expand the attack coverage, it would be a surprise for Zhuang Xuteng. However, the execution puppet is also a shadow slave device, which can provide a large number of shadow slave side effects and resentment, which increases the total amount of "ammunition" that can be drawn by the spell in the end, and more people will die as a result.

"The prediction made by the Lich Master through calculations before was wrong. The execution puppets can provide resentment and will also withstand attacks and share the damage for a period of time. But after they are destroyed, they still follow the rule of providing more resentment overall." Zhuang Xuteng was unable to make an accurate estimate, but could only confirm one thing: "A transformation rate lower than 15% will definitely not be a safe line, and 10% may not be safe. If the number of execution puppets exceeds the total population, perhaps a transformation rate lower than 5% will still not guarantee that they will not be killed. Oh my God, how many people will that be..."

Once the spell is released, it will run automatically and is no longer under Zhuang Xuteng's control. There is no way to stop it in advance. The sensory tentacles created by Zhuang Xuteng continue to proliferate and spread in the computing power network and the working network of the execution puppets. They not only obtain an unexpected additional source of energy, but also receive support from "computing power".

In terms of some underlying designs, the control core of the sensory tentacles, the "invisible servants" and the execution puppets are both semi-intelligent, low-intelligence "magic creations". They continue to act according to pre-set functions and often encounter problems that are not set in advance. The execution puppets can obtain basic human intelligence support from the computing power network. The invisible servants and execution puppets are mixed together, and they also get some support.

The most common problems of sensory tentacles are how to find each attack target, how to sort the targets, and how to replace the closer sensory tentacles to continue the attack when the target moves. The computing power network greatly improves the efficiency of sensory tentacles, reduces their "fighting" and competition for targets, and even improves their harmony when extracting energy.

The large-scale actions of the sensory tentacles in the computing power network and the working network could not have been without impact, and the company's monitoring system quickly discovered the anomalies in the network's computing control and energy flow. They tried to find the source of the anomaly, but the sensory tentacles were inside the network and became part of the network, so the company could not find the source of the anomaly outside the network at all.

The computing network is the core asset of the four major companies. It has a high confidentiality level. Fault warnings will be automatically reported to the company's top executives, and will also be copied to all members of the End Meeting. Since "killing Zhuang Xuteng", all the company's actions have become extremely smooth. The whole world has been praising the company in various ways and kneeling in submission in various strange ways.

A small fluctuation has no impact on production so far, and the energy consumption caused is just a drop in the bucket for the entire system. In addition to the fact that this is a new phenomenon that will make a lot of researchers scratch their scalps, it is not worth investing too much energy, especially now.

After obtaining the support of the computing network, wherever the execution puppet exists, the perception tentacles will be generated. In this way, secret laboratories, factories and other places that were not covered by public work points can also generate perception tentacles because they use work or security type execution puppets.

In a high-level research center deep in the mountains of Gaofeng City, the sensory tentacles searched for targets in the rooms and corridors. The slight energy reaction generated by their movement caught Anzu's attention. He opened his eyes, and the newly installed implant-enhanced eyeballs swept across the room, and various detection instruments were fully operational. At this time, he had been selected as the primary target by the sensory tentacles because of his extremely high transformation rate, and no further exploration was needed. Therefore, the sensory tentacles attached to his head had stopped moving, but continued to instill resentment in him. In this case, Anzu could not find any abnormalities in the area in front of him.

"The computing power network has abnormal fluctuations. The reason is currently unknown, but it does not affect the network's operation at all?" As a member of the End Meeting, he received this pinned message and thought that the anomaly just now might have come from the computing power network. He thought for a moment and called his support staff: "Support team, keep an eye on the computing power network fluctuations. If it develops in a bad direction, I want to know it first."

Anzu's direct support team consists of 400 people, of which about 200 are staff members with intelligence-gathering implants, helping him analyze and filter various business information and provide preliminary opinions. The rest provide various services in the physical world, of which the 30-person medical team is at the core, responsible for debugging, upgrading, and replacing various shadow slaves and implants for Anzu.

The battle with Zhuang Xuteng turned Anzu back to his original form. When he was resurrected, he could only use the most basic equipment to reconstruct his body and barely gain basic combat power. Most of his out-of-print powerful implants were completely destroyed and could never be found again. Anzu lost many of his supernatural means, but he also had the opportunity to replace new supernatural equipment.

A year has passed, and the medical team has provided him with dozens of combat implants and shadow slave combinations. The actual combat power of each set is comparable to that before resurrection, but Anzu has never been satisfied. After tasting Zhuang Xuteng's combat power, Anzu has a firm belief in his heart: only by obtaining Zhuang Xuteng's basic physical and combat skills, plus the company's R&D capabilities and technical support, can he be considered the most invincible strong man in the world.

Anzu sat up, and the surrounding equipment immediately adjusted their status, not only to assist in activating the shadow slave equipment on Anzu, but also to disconnect the energy connection, nutrition pipeline and monitoring line. The medical staff on duty personally put on Anzu's coat and reported to him the current status of his body transformation.

"I don't want to look at this for now." Anzu said, "How is the progress of the replication experiment?"

"Subject 3876 has entered his youth. His simulation degree is currently the highest and his adaptability is also very good. He is expected to break through the critical point."

"So what about the analysis of supercomputing martial arts and dormant martial arts?" Anzu asked.

"The analysis of the original supercomputing martial arts has been completed, and its combination with the dormant martial arts and optimization are in progress. At present, this is just a set of algorithmic martial arts that can be used without external support..."

Anzu glared at him, his tone already bad: "I was almost killed by this martial arts, and you said it was just makeshift?"

"The strength of the martial arts is indeed not high. The key is still the user." The researcher felt Anzu's anger, but he knew the man in front of him very well. He knew that as long as he told the truth and presented facts and credible analysis, Anzu would control his emotions. "According to the interrogation of Ge Gongdao, it is obvious that Naike has improved the martial arts and made it have special effects similar to supernatural powers. This part is the current difficulty. There are too many possibilities, and continuous simulation and calculation are required."

"We need to further explore their memories. The more accurate the Nikes are, the better your simulation calculations will be. Is Ge Gongdao's condition stable?" "Not yet completely stable. The phantom limb problem still exists. His nerve impulses in the virtual environment cannot get feedback from the implant, which greatly reduces the stability of his dreams. It is recommended to install his implant back so that..."

"Negative. It is very dangerous to let Ge Gongdao regain high-speed and high-explosive implants." Anzu said, "He is Brother Naike, and he has learned another set of martial arts. If he also achieves a breakthrough like Naike, how many people in the research institute will die? The same goes for the others. Remove the shadow slaves and implants to ensure that they are not a threat. If there is time, study more about how to upgrade the virtual dream. That Ge Gongdao has not yet reached 40% of synchronization and coordination. The progress is too slow. No!"

Anzu waved his hand, and the researcher went to pass on the order to his subordinates. Within the company, all instructions can be transmitted to each specific person through the network, but giving orders in person can better show majesty, class, and hierarchy in advance.

What goes up must go down. Anzu was keen on giving orders in person, and so were the researchers, even worse. In order to convey the latest instructions, a small-scale meeting was necessary. A few leaders held a meeting, a dozen people waited on them, and dozens of people waited for another small meeting. Although the duration of each meeting was strictly limited, like this meeting, it could only be completed in ten minutes at most, it was still considered necessary.

When he entered the conference room, his subordinates had already prepared for the meeting. One side of the conference room wall was covered with display screens, showing real-time monitoring information of eight laboratories and twelve cells.

If Zhuang Xuteng were here, he would be in tears, tears of pain and joy. Morgana, Zhuang Feifei, his father, mother, master, Ge Gongdao... all the people on the missing list are here. They are imprisoned, with huge helmets full of wires on their heads, and they are dreaming deep, realistic, artificial dreams under the monitoring of instruments.

"Anzu is not satisfied with our progress." The researcher knew how to use Anzu's power to manage the team. He pointed at Ge Gongdao and said, "Ge Gongdao's synchronization rate is too low. We need to find a way to increase it to more than 50% as soon as possible. As I expected, Anzu does not agree to install a real implant for him. How is the preparation of the illusion prosthesis going? Has it passed the human test?"

"In the 42 control groups, only 1 out of installation instances had a problem, so it could be installed."

"Then install them on him, all four limbs. Give him two days to adjust, allowing him to regain consciousness, and increase security at the same time. Any updates on the others' situation?"

Everyone checked their own projects. One of them said, "Morgana's resistance is still going on. She has hurt our colleagues again. Recently, her synchronization rate has fluctuated extremely violently. It has never returned to the previous high of 60%. It even dropped to only 5% at one point. The reason for this phenomenon has not yet been found."

"Let her take it easy. Allow her to relax. Her and Ge Gongdao's memories are the most important. We must protect their brains. By the way, how are Nightingale and Rock Sparrow?"

"Their synchronization rate is very stable, always around 75%, but the information they provide is very little. We suspect that the brain implants of the two people may still contain protection programs and have been providing false information. Although there are risks in the operation, I still recommend removing the implants and completely breaking their protection from a physical level."

"Agreed, let's do it. We have already done 75% of the work. Either they really don't have more information, or they are hiding it, so the operation is necessary. Death is acceptable. What about the others?"

“There is no updated news.”

"Okay! According to their danger level, increase their rest time appropriately to relax their minds. There has been some progress in the virtual scenario. After this rest, they will receive a new major version update. Pay attention to increasing nutrition, especially those old guys - they were not in good health when they were captured, and they have various chronic diseases. Be sure to pay attention to the interaction between these diseases and the experimental drugs."

After the meeting, the heads of each department acted separately, either strengthening their work or adjusting their work priorities. They captured everyone around Zhuang Xuteng for only one purpose: to recreate Zhuang Xuteng, study the secret of his powerful fighting power, study his relationship with the will of the world, and provide Anzu with a physical template with the strongest fighting potential.

In order to reproduce Zhuang Xuteng, they need Zhuang Xuteng's body cells for cloning operations, and also extract genomes from his parents, brothers and sisters in order to study more similar possibilities and provide full coverage. At the same time, they extract the memories of everyone and input them into the clone's brain to form memories and personality. The clone grows very fast and can only be placed in a virtual dream. Fortunately, the speed of dreaming can be very fast. Combined with people's impressions of Zhuang Xuteng, and based on the content of general school education, factory and social education, a dream with a rough process is compiled. The clone's brain is blank, it will regard dreams as memories and add details on its own.

This technology is not mature enough, so the clones produced will have various mental problems. At present, Zhuang Xuteng's clone number has reached more than 3,800, and these are all adult clones. At present, there are at least 20,000 clones in the embryonic and juvenile stages in the culture dish, and they are still being produced.

True enemies appreciate the most. In the company, Anzu is the one who appreciates Zhuang Xuteng the most, so he set up this laboratory to create Zhuang Xuteng. Well, to be precise, it should be called "resurrection" of Zhuang Xuteng. Because the stable growth from cells to clones and then to clones actually benefits from Anzu's three-stage basic superpower: resurrection.

The Shadow Detection Network mobilizes and transmits massive amounts of Shadow energy around the world to activate and maintain Anzu's resurrection ability, which Anzu then uses in cell factories to increase the success rate of cell cloning.

This means that Anzu has been using his supernatural powers non-stop, and his body and mind are constantly under pressure. It is definitely not an easy job. However, Anzu has no complaints. He believes that the company has succeeded and ended the diversity of the future, leaving only one outcome that is most beneficial to the company. The new world bows down, so the question is: who will control the company in the end?

"It should be the god-like me." Anzu gave the answer.
