Chapter 239 The Ninth Judge Taylor
Xinghan has already learned that the seventh laboratory is located on the second floor, and there are 8 floors between it and the tenth floor.

If he wanted to go to the seventh laboratory, it would require more than just an easy way for him to leave.

A reasonable identity that can pass through all levels of the Mechanical Kingdom without hindrance is the top priority.

While thinking, Xinghan's fingertips unconsciously stroked the anti-rust coating on the back of the chair, and metal fragments fell on the bionic fiber carpet.

Suddenly, the projection of the nerve cords hanging from the dome flickered, cutting old Taylor's age-spotted face into light and dark fragments.

“The door to the seventh laboratory has been sealed and heavily guarded. You cannot enter through the main entrance.

The energy core of the seventh laboratory is embedded in the third layer of the anti-gravity ring, and its quantum teleportation array is still preserved."

Old Taylor's mechanical prosthetic eyes glowed with blue data streams, and a precise three-dimensional map appeared on the wall.

"Every member of the lab has a link to their vital signs, allowing them to directly enter the lab. Of course, you have lost this permission now."

Old Taylor manipulated the fluorescent energy pipes to outline a honeycomb structure on the map. The coordinates of the teleportation array of the seventh laboratory were like a bloody pin stuck at the junction of the second and third floors.

"I can help you restart the backup server of the Seventh Laboratory... buy you 6 seconds... no, 5 seconds, to get the transmission permission. If you exceed 5 seconds, there is a chance that you will be discovered by the Mechanical Mother.

"Old Taylor suddenly coughed violently, and the metallic resonance in his throat made his teeth ache. "That guy's backup consciousness data... cough cough should still be sealed on the nineteenth floor."

Violetta handed over the oxygen mask at the right time, but the old man waved it away.

He lifted the cashmere blanket covering his legs, revealing a neural connection integrated into the wheelchair, with hundreds of data cables embedded in the metal floor like tree roots.

"This is the 'gatekeeper authority' granted by the Mechanical Mother.

Old Taylor stroked the rust on the edge of the connection.

"It will allow you to have a global access code below the ninth level within 72 hours. Of course, I need you to help me with a small operation."

Xinghan was a little confused. Didn’t they say they were going to maintain the optical computer?

The next moment, Xinghan's pupils shrank slightly.

When the three-dimensional projection switched to the optical computer core module, he finally understood the true meaning of "maintenance" - those nerve bundles wrapped around the quantum processor were clearly biological components modified from living brains.

All of these biological components are connected to old Taylor's body through quantum neural networks.

Maintaining the optical brain is like performing surgery on old Taylor, which makes perfect sense.

Xinghan took the encryption chip that was flashing red light, and the warm touch from his fingertips made his back chill.

This is obviously a ganglion that has just been removed from a living body, and there is still light blue bioelectricity remaining on the surface.

When his eyes swept across the life-support cabin in the corner, he saw dozens of brains soaked in nutrient solution.

"Take out the faulty module from cooling tank number three."

Xinghan checked the overall structure of the optical computer and immediately began to give orders.

"Then we inject that data packet into the coprocessor's secondary loop."

He copied a storage device from his personal optical computer and threw it behind him.

Violetta hurriedly dodged and caught it, showing an angry expression.

Then he asked awkwardly, "Where is the secondary circuit of the coprocessor?"

"Slot 197 of the third active brain on the right."

"Twenty minutes." Xinghan stood up and walked towards the computer hatch. "I need full operating authority."

Violetta was a little annoyed. She drew her rail sword three inches from its sheath. As long as old Taylor gave the order, she would kill the madman.

But she saw that the old man leaned slightly in his wheelchair, and the rusty neural connector suddenly popped open, revealing the dark red verification port inside.

The old man input a series of commands, and soon, the internal authority of the optical computer cabin was opened to Xinghan.

When Xinghan inserted the chip into the bionic interface of the core brain, a sharp alarm suddenly sounded throughout the palace.

The nerve cords hanging from the dome twisted wildly, casting scarlet warning signs on the metal walls.

Violetta's breathing suddenly became rapid, and the particle flow of the magnetic rail sword had condensed into a solid.

“Don’t be nervous.” Xing Han’s voice had a strange metallic tremor. “It’s just the seven-fold dynamic key set by the previous maintainer. It can be cracked in one minute.”

Old Taylor's fingers hidden under the blanket twitched slightly - those seemingly messy alarm codes were actually the firewall programs he had set up.

When the seventh firewall was breached, the optical computer core module emitted a roar of hydraulic device unlocking, and the cover of the optical computer core chip slid open automatically.

"You are better than I thought." Old Taylor's voice was just right with admiration. "It seems that the Seventh Laboratory..."

"Stop talking nonsense!" Xing Han interrupted coldly. "I want full authority. If you don't trust me, ask for someone else!"

Old Taylor was stunned, then smiled and shook his head.

"Do you want permission to control your body, too? Previous maintenance never required opening up to this extent."

He entered another line of code.

Looking at the flashing blue light in front of him, Xinghan nodded and continued the operation.

Eighteen minutes later.

"You will get a new identity code." Old Taylor turned off the optical computer system with a snap of his fingers, and the operation of the optical computer was smoother than ever before.

"In three hours, the garbage disposal station on the ninth floor will receive the 'special waste' on the tenth floor."

Old Taylor's voice suddenly became vague, "If you haven't entered the seventh laboratory within the time limit..."

Suddenly, Xinghan felt a sharp pain in the back of his neck.

A nanoscale tracker was traveling along his spine, eventually coming to rest in his brain stem.

"Nano neural bomb."

Xinghan wasn't surprised, it was just one of old Taylor's skills.

He actually detected some of old Taylor's attributes as soon as he entered the door.

……

Xinghan had expected that the other party would have a backup plan, but what came to him now was a clone, so he was not at all nervous. A single liquefaction could solve the threat of the bomb.

The old man smiled slightly and did not continue to make threatening words. In his opinion, Xinghan was completely under his control.

Xinghan touched the back of his neck, walked towards the third cooling tank resignedly, and took out the storage device inserted into the cooling tank interface.

Seeing this, Violetta felt proud. You ordered me around just now, and now you have the upper hand over me. Shouldn't I just do my job in shame?

"When will the boat to pick me up arrive?"

Xinghan's voice was cold.

Old Taylor didn't care about Xinghan's attitude, he just needed to keep it firmly in his hands.

"I'll let you know when we get there. Just go out and wait." Violetta snorted coldly.

Xinghan turned around and left the room without saying a word.

Before leaving, Violetta threw him a stack of information.

"Here is the information of your new identity and the spare chip. You are good at disguising yourself, so I don't need to spend any extra effort on it. I'm sure you can also handle the implantation of the chip."

Listening to the other party's words, Xinghan walked out of the house without stopping.

In his other hand he held the storage device.

In Xinghan's opinion, the greatest gain of this trip is probably not the opportunity to go to the upper level, nor the information about the seventh level, but the storage device in front of him.

The moment it entered the room, the Eye of Hate detected that in addition to Old Taylor and Violetta, there was a third person in the room.

It’s just that this third person has not shown up, and his condition is a little abnormal.

It was not until he entered the third cooling tank and the floating brain coincided with the position of the detected life form that he realized the truth of the matter was far from as simple as he saw.
