Chapter 240 Virtue and Vice

The secretary's scream attracted the attention of the surrounding employees. Now is a sensitive period, and the employees of Anthem Company are particularly sensitive to the word "monster".

The information that the Anthem Hunters can create disqualified monsters has spread among the upper echelons of Anthem Company. Coupled with the sudden appearance of the Fly King in the Anthem Building last night, it is hard not to think that the monster that appeared in the office was an attack by the Anthem Hunters.

Some employees who reacted quickly had already jumped out of their workstations and ran towards the elevator, while those who reacted slowly had also crawled under their desks.

In an instant, the whole floor was in chaos.

That’s how quickly Anthem’s management responded.

Wu Chang listened to the noise outside and said to the guards blocking the door with an embarrassed look on his face:

"Misunderstanding, this is my ability, not a disqualified monster."

He was just about to release his ability to reassure the guards outside who were holding high-energy weapons and were on edge, when he saw Mok squeeze in from the guards and said:

"Don't cancel the ability yet!"

After Mo Ke and Wu Chang finished talking, they turned around and waved outside, saying:
"This is the company's latest research technology. Don't make a fuss about everything. Go back. You have nothing to do here."

After sending everyone away, Mok closed the door of his office. He looked at the giant gluttonous ant and asked:
"It won't attack me."

Wu Chang shook his head and said, "No."

Mok touched the gluttonous ant, felt the real touch in his hand, and a look of surprise appeared on his face.

"Sean, is this the ability you gained after the psychic stimulation surgery?"

Normally, as soon as one completes psychic stimulation, one should record the acquired abilities and participate in the testing of the psychic stimulation department.

But this operation was too special. Schultz was the lead surgeon and the operation was too long. Both Schultz and Wu Chang were very tired and in urgent need of rest. The Psychic Stimulation Department dared not stop Wu Chang from doing the test first.

This made many people, including Hughes and Mok, only know that Wu Chang's psychic energy was unusual, but they didn't know how unusual it was.

Mok originally wanted to congratulate Wu Chang on his promotion to level nine partner, but when he saw Wu Chang's abilities, he was immediately deeply attracted.

"It's indeed a complex talent that even Hughes couldn't handle. It's like the real thing." Mok marveled at Wu Chang's ability.
"Sean, can you tell me more about your abilities?"

Wu Chang had a simple expression and said straightforwardly:
"After the psychic stimulation surgery, I found that many memories in my mind became exceptionally clear. The more I concentrated, the more vivid the memories became, as if they were really appearing in front of me."

"When I came to my senses, the thing I imagined in my mind actually appeared in the office. I was testing how to use my ability, and then what happened just now happened."

Mok seemed to have thought of something, "Sean, can you condense anything that appears in your mind?"

Wu Chang shook his head. "Not everything will do. At least I have to have seen it before and have a certain understanding of its details. At least as detailed as the Disqualified Monster Files."

Mok continued, "Can you manipulate what you condense?"

Wu Chang: “Of course.”

He first shrunk the size of the glutton ant, then controlled the glutton ant to stand up like a human and bowed slightly to Mok.

Mork: "How long can it last?"

Wu Chang said: "I haven't tested it."

Mok's eyes lit up, and he finally threw out the answer he wanted to know most: "Then can you condense me?"

When Mok asked, Wu Chang had guessed what the other party was thinking, but he still asked in confusion: "Mr. Mok, what are you going to do?"

Mok said solemnly: "This is what happened..."

In Mok's eyes, Sean was one of his own, so he did not hide anything and told him directly that he had cooperated with the CIA to find the Anthem Hunter.

"Although the CIA assured me that the agent was absolutely trustworthy, I still have doubts about him. So I want you to create a substitute for me and contact the other party."

Mok looked at the gluttonous ant beside him and sighed, "What you condensed is more real than the real thing. If the agent who contacted me is the Anthem Hunter, he will definitely attack my clone."

Wu Chang frowned and said:
"There is a problem. What I condense can only imitate the appearance, not the behavior. If the other party is an agent, they will soon find out the problem."

Mok smiled and said, "Don't worry about it, Sean, just relax."

Mok buttoned up a button on his suit, and Wu Chang saw a divine power emanating from it, covering the gluttonous ants that were gathering towards him.

Wu Chang did not block the power and let Mok do what he wanted. After the power penetrated into the gluttonous ant, the gluttonous ant actually made the same move as Mok and said:
"Just as I thought, what you condensed is too realistic and can be controlled by my ability."

Wu Chang stared at the button on Mok's shirt and asked, "What is it?"

Mok said: "The primordial weapon can amplify my abilities."

Wu Chang asked tentatively: "Can you let me see it?"

Mok took off the button and handed it to Wu Chang.

"Item Name: Psychic Resonance"

「Item type: copy item」

"Item Level: A"

"Item Skill: Aura Amplifier"

"Skill Description: After completing the psychic energy stimulation operation, the target who gains the aura talent can use it to enhance the effect of the aura talent and condense the aura into divinity according to the strength of the aura."

「Item Skill: Mind Control」

"Skill Description: Launches a mental attack on the target. The strength of the mental attack depends on the user's inspiration. If the mental attack breaks through the target's will barrier, the target will be completely controlled."

"Note: When the target is a player, the effect of mental attack is halved."

Judging from the ability of the props alone, the effect of mind resonance is not strong. Mind control looks intimidating, but the bound attribute is inspiration. Most players in the wasteland will not invest many attribute points in inspiration.

In addition, when used against players, the effect of mental attacks is halved, which means that its effect is only suitable for controlling the natives of the dungeon plane when conquering a dungeon, which makes it even more useless.

Psychic resonance can be positioned as A-level, and the root cause is probably in the transformation divinity effect of the first skill.

Abilities that have something to do with divinity cannot receive a low score.

Wu Chang played with it for a few moments and then returned it to Mok.

"Since you have a solution, Mr. Mok, it is indeed worth a try."

Mok looked at the gluttonous ants that Wu Chang had condensed and said, "What we need to solve now is how long it can last and how far it can get away from you. Sean, this is about the Anthem Company, I hope you can cooperate with me."

Wu Chang nodded and said, "That's what I should do."

After a series of tests, the two had a certain understanding of Wu Chang's awakened abilities.

The duration of the creations that Wu Chang condensed from the virtual to the real was linked to his inspiration. Since his inspiration was too strong, the things he condensed at the beginning did not dissipate until the end, so there was no need to worry about the endurance.

The number of creatures is related to the power allocated to them and also to his will.

For every fifty points of will, one more creature can be created, but two creatures will evenly divide the upper limit of the creation's ability.

He currently had 176 points of willpower, enough to create three creatures at the same time, but in front of Mok, he said that his ability limit was only two.

As for the distance issue that Mok is most concerned about, once the creation is created, as long as Wu Chang does not remove the ability, the creation is a separate individual and there is no distance limit between it and the original body.

After confirming Wu Chang's ability, Mok was very satisfied with Wu Chang's ability. He asked Wu Chang to condense his clone, and then used mental control to control the clone to meet Raymond in advance.

Before leaving, Wu Chang asked Mok how to get his own Essence Armor. Mok told him that the Essence Armor of the ninth-level partners was tailored according to their respective abilities. He had to formulate multiple plans first, and then screen and cultivate the raw materials. Even if everything went well and there were ready-made raw materials, it would take two or three months.

Wu Chang sighed after hearing this. He was afraid that if he stayed in the Anthem Company long enough, he would not be able to get his original weapon.

Mok thought he was anxious and tried to comfort him:

"Sometimes, waiting a long time is not necessarily a bad thing. Perhaps it won't be long before the craftsmanship of the original weapon will be upgraded again."

After Mok finished speaking, he left excitedly with his clone.

Wu Chang sat alone in the office, looking through Mok's file. In order to allow him to condense his clone, Mok wrote his information very clearly.

Because Wu Chang mentioned that the more details there were, the more helpful it would be for him to condense his creation, and Mok was afraid that ordinary photos and texts alone would not be detailed enough. If he hadn't tried his best to stop it, Mok would have almost taken a set of nude art photos of him on the spot.

Looking at naked photos of old men will give you nightmares at night.

Because of Mok's attention to detail, the files he submitted were very detailed, and Wu Chang saw a surgical file in them.

The Mok family suffers from congenital heart disease which is difficult to cure. The condition that Anthem Company offered to buy him out was to use Anthem Company's cutting-edge technology to cure Mok's heart disease.

The treatment method is to convert Mok's heart into a semi-mechanical one. The advantage is that its effect will always be strong and there is no need to worry about problems. The disadvantage is that if the mechanical area of ​​his heart fails due to something, he will fall into a coma on the spot and may even be in danger of his life.

Wu Chang tapped the table with his fingers, thinking about how to reasonably let Raymond know this information.

While he was thinking, he suddenly had an inspiration and realized that something was wrong.

He looked at the surveillance camera on the computer and found that Fei Guang and Qian Ye, whom he had been monitoring, were moving strangely and began to slowly prepare for something.

Did they run into a problem, or did they tamper with the surveillance?

Either way, it's worth seeing for himself.

Of course, with my own eyes, not in person.

He activated his talent of turning the void into reality, and an invisible black shadow appeared before him.

This black shadow was exactly the shadow he had seen in the Silent Route dungeon. Shadow's ability was the most suitable for stealth and infiltration among all the players he had seen.

In order to increase Shadow's abilities, he reduced Shadow's size to the minimum and restored the details to the minimum, using all the upper limits to restore Shadow's abilities.

He was worried that Shadow's abilities could not be concealed, so when he used his imagination to condense Shadow, he added some of the characteristics of a spirit and his social phobia.

Just like that, a vague existence that was almost transparent and could completely blend into the shadow appeared in front of Wu Chang.

He controlled the shadow and rushed towards the area where Fei Guang and others were located in the surveillance video. The place where they appeared was the information center of the Security Department.

The spirit has been added to the characteristics of the shadow, which allows it to not only move quickly through the shadows, but also pass directly through walls.

With the help of these two abilities, Shadow quickly arrived at the area shown in the surveillance video.

In reality, Fei Guang and Qian Ye, who were supposed to appear here, disappeared, but in the surveillance, the two were still planning something.

They did tamper with the surveillance.

Wu Chang switched several nearby cameras and didn't see anything unusual, so he could be sure that Feiguang and Qianye didn't go far and should be nearby.

He controlled the shadow to turn around, and sure enough he discovered something unusual. Within the camera range, a section of the floor was cut open by a special prop and was left half-covered in its original place.

The shadow crossed the floor and came to a room where the servers were stored, where Wu Chang saw Fei Guang and Qian Ye.

Wu Chang frowned. They wanted to hack into the server of Anthem Company and look for intelligence directly?

In the dimension of Anthem Company, Anthem Company's network security is second to none, and no one dares to claim to be first. As an arms dealer ahead of the times, Anthem Company would have been easily breached by hackers and all its secrets stolen if its network security was a little bit poor.

The Administration's free intelligence about Anthem Company mentioned that Anthem Company's network security is the best in the world, and it uses some kind of black technology encryption that can not only prevent intrusions, but also quickly lock down the specific location of hackers.

There have been several players who are experts in hacking and have failed in the Anthem Company dungeon.

Fei Guang and Qian Ye, neither of them looks like hackers, they are not here to get killed, are they?

Wu Chang's doubts did not last long, and soon he saw Fei Guang and Qian Ye's real reliance.

They made all the preparations, connected a special computer to the server, and then took out a contract.

Shake people!

As the contract was activated, the computers they had prepared came to life, and lines of code ran rapidly without any human operation.

Wu Chang could see that the computer that came to life had taken on divinity.

A hacker with activated divinity descended upon this computer.

Hiss, before they even saw the BOSS, Fei Guang and others had already shaken their hands twice. It was obvious that the organization behind the Iron Armored Regiment had invested a huge amount of money.

Anthem's cybersecurity black technology is mostly similar to disqualified monsters and elemental weapons, and contains a thin layer of divinity.

When the thin artificial divinity meets the righteous divinity, the result is self-evident.

How can we break through the strongest network security firewall in the wild world? Isn't it enough to let the hackers from the rational world get in?
Within two minutes, the revived computer broke into the server and connected to the management's backend operating system. The permission level displayed on the screen was actually level nine!

Through the nine-level authority system, the computer quickly locked onto a target, and a navigation window popped up on its screen, signaling Fei Guang and Qian Ye to follow his instructions.

This time, with the help of computers, Fei Guang and Qian Ye seemed to have turned on optical camouflage. Wu Chang could not see their existence at all from the monitoring system, and even through inspiration he could not detect any abnormality.

If he hadn't been following them with his shadow, he would have thought that the two of them had disappeared out of thin air.

Guided by the computer, they first boarded the elevator and went all the way to the 90th floor of the Anthem Building.

The computer used its authority to open the hidden room at the end of the 90th floor and took the two people in. Wu Chang controlled the shadow and followed them.

In the hidden room, there is a huge computer, and on the screen in front of the computer, the employee information is scrolling in real time.

Under the control of the computer, Wu Chang discovered that the computer in the hidden room recorded the information of all Anthem employees around the world. This information started from elementary school and included every detail, including replies posted on the forum, websites logged in, and even the length of time and focus of each web page browsed.

This information is all aggregated together and used to create a real-time moral assessment of their moral tendencies, sorting them into virtues or vices, based on their recent performance in the anthem company.

The computer in the hidden room will screen out employees who need special attention based on the results of the moral assessment, and then use the database to match them with appropriate business, overtime intensity, and work they should do, so as to extreme the virtues or sins of the selected targets.

Once the ethical assessment is too extreme and meets a certain score, the employee will be given special attention and will proceed to the next step.

Wu Chang saw the files of the Zou brothers in the virtue resource library. Their virtues were diligence and perseverance, and their overall virtue score was 90.

At the same time, he also saw Farrell among the employees of special attention, with a tendency towards sin and a score of 285. When Farrell first joined Anthem, his sin value was 68.

Looking at the computer, Wu Chang suddenly felt suffocated.

After he entered Farrell's grudge, he saw that as he got older, the evil in Farrell continued to increase, especially after joining Anthem Company, as if Anthem Company was stimulating the growth of evil in him.

The scene before him confirmed his original guess.

All the employees in Anthem Company, their concepts of good and evil, and their emotional states are actually controlled by a big hand in the dark.

No matter what they see, hear, experience, whether their mood is excited or depressed, whether their life is smooth or bad, you think you made the choice yourself, but in fact someone has already predetermined your future and is pushing you towards the result they want.

At the same time, the computer in Fei Guang's hand responded again.
