Abnormal Doomsday Records

Chapter 19. The clinging little demon makes a great contribution

Moni's execution ability is super strong!
Just as night fell, he brought Zhou Ke three worn-out individual communication devices. The devices looked very similar to the police communicators in Zhou Ke's memory, but the technological level of the old civilization was enough to turn the internal structure of the devices into a bunch of strange gadgets that modern people could not understand at all.

"Just throw it to me like that?"

Zhou Ke glanced at Moni, who shook his head and said:

"Of course not. You only have three to five hours to use it. You can't damage it. I have to return it."

"Three to five hours?"

Zhou Ke's eyes widened immediately, and he exclaimed:
"Are all the Tiger State soldiers' waists so strong?"

"What are you thinking about?"

Moni looked at Zhou Ke in surprise and said:
"Don't you know?

When those biochemical warriors were modified, their reproductive systems would be deliberately weakened to avoid affecting their combat capabilities. This "secondary castration" would then be used to make it difficult for them to vent their desires, so that they would accumulate destructive desires and intensify their anger.

Those guys can still get hard, but don't expect their dulled nerves to get much pleasure from it.

The reason I can buy you three to five hours is that I provide them with some 'toys', whips and the like.

The female fighters did it willingly.

Anyway, their daily lives are not that good, and with the hope of escaping and surviving, they can naturally hold on longer and cooperate with those sadists. Once the desire accumulated in daily life is completely released, three to five hours is not their limit of "entertainment".
It was just because the shift was about to change.”

"You seem to be familiar with biochemical modification?"

Zhou Ke used his polymer dagger to dismantle the communicator shell in his hand and asked:
"Have you learned it before?"

"It's just family knowledge. The Panis Group is famous in the City-State District for breeding biochemical beasts. We have a full set of industries. Although we can't compare with the laboratories under the wealthy Acholi Consortium in terms of biochemical transformation, we also have our own flagship products."

Moni lit a cigarette for himself and talked to Zhou Ke to cheer him up while he was busy.

He curled his lips and said:

"I'll tell you a secret to deepen our mutual trust.

Half of the prototypes of the monsters now roaming the evil land come from the gene bank of the Panis family. Before the collapse of the old civilization, our family was a world-class biotechnology group. It is said that in the early stages of the war caused by the Month of Fetal Movement, our family also provided a large number of biological weapons to the federal army.

Unfortunately, everyone underestimated the power of the Fetal Movement Moon, and those biological weapons also became part of the disaster. "

As he spoke, he looked at Ajie who was squatting in the corner and eating an energy bar. After observing him for more than ten seconds, he said to Zhou Ke:

"How did you tame him? This guy obviously has a personality breakdown. I have never heard of any wastelander who can tame such a brutal beast like a dog. This does not conform to the rules of biochemistry at all."

"Huh, rules? Aren't they meant to be broken?"

Zhou Ke replied, and then said in a subtle tone:

"Who doesn't have some special skills if they can survive in the Bad Land? But from what I heard from you, your family still retains the complete history and heritage of the old civilization until now?"

"Of course. Otherwise, how do you think the power in the city-state area is divided?"

Moni laughed sarcastically and said:
“The people of the Badlands only think that the City-State District is the territory of the Acholi Group, but they cannot understand that the Acholi Group is only the largest force in the City-State District but not the only force. It is a post-disaster shelter, and all the forces that still exist have contributed to its establishment.

It is our common property, but it is entrusted to the Acholi Consortium for management.”

"What about 'The Garden of Eden'?"

Zhou Ke carefully took out the communication antenna rod from the disassembled communicator and inserted it into the interface of his energy-comprehension device. The words "Signal cracking and matching" were immediately displayed on the screen.

Because there were other people present, Wu Neng did not answer in a mechanical voice, pretending that he was just a pathetic little mute who could not speak.

Zhou Ke turned around, threw a cigarette to Moni, and asked:

"The people of the Badlands are all saying that there is a space station of an old civilization outside the sky. They imagine it to be the most beautiful paradise. You are the first person from the city-state I have met, so I ask you, is this the most outrageous of all the Badlands legends true?"

This question made Moni hesitate, but his hesitation itself was actually an answer.

After several seconds, Moni gritted his teeth, made up his mind and said seriously:
"In order to strengthen the trust between us, I will tell you this secret that only the core members of each family know.

The Garden of Eden was real!
The old man of our family and his seven wives live there now, and the current head of the Panis family, my second uncle, will move there with his closest relatives when he gets old.

You are right, that is a super-large ecological colony launched into outer space before the collapse of the old civilization.

When the world fell, the most powerful, wealthy, powerful and influential people migrated there, but through the connections of the Acholi Consortium, those old guys are still in control of everything they once had.

The Badlands is a haunted place, but Gods still exist here, Zhou Ke.

Those guys who are overlooking this suffering world from the sky are the "gods" of this era. The ultimate purpose of the operation of the entire evil land and even the city-state is to provide the Garden of Eden with what they need.

Servants, resources, and even fun.

It is said that the Garden of Eden preserves the entire heritage of the old civilization, and it is said that the people there are immortal. Don't give me that surprised bumpkin expression, Zhou Ke.

It is not difficult to achieve this with the biotechnology level of the old civilization, but it cannot be promoted on a large scale, and the carrying capacity of the space station is always limited, so I heard that the super-giant space station, which is as large as a small satellite, has only 1.5 million people, including the large number of slaves. "

"One million and a half? That's obviously too many for a group that calls themselves 'gods', so they can't be real gods, and all false gods are doomed to fall."

Zhou Ke curled his lips in disdain.

He satisfied his curiosity and finally had a preliminary understanding of the current power system in the Bad Land. He glanced at the signal program on his left arm that was about to be analyzed, and asked one last question:
"How many records of the 'First Demonic War' are there in your family?"

"What?"

Zhou Ke's question confused Moni, who blew out a smoke ring in surprise and said:
"What is that? I have never heard of that term. There is no such thing in the family records. I received memory enhancement when I was a child. If there is, I will not forget it. However, it is indeed appropriate to use it to describe the disaster brought about by the fetal movement month for more than 30 years."

"I don't think these two are the same thing, but that's not important."

Zhou Ke ended the topic, then waved his hand and projected the internal topographic map of the Tiger's Nest, which he had obtained after analyzing the signal's penetration layer by layer, onto the wall.

He would not interfere in areas he was not good at. For example, he never asked Wu Neng whether he would be discovered when infiltrating the other party's information network. Judging from the usual "awesome" attitude of this little idiot, he obviously did not regard infiltrating the Tiger's Nest information network as a challenge.

If I have to say, its difficulty is probably equivalent to a gym student blocking a kindergarten cutie in an alley and trying to snatch the lollipop from his hand.

This is an obvious thing. Given the quality of the biochemical madmen at Hubang, can you expect them to do a good job in network security defense?

Rather than defeating hackers technically, they are clearly better at “opening the box” offline and then physically destroying the opponent.

The internal topographic map of Tiger's Nest was analyzed and combined with the city map from decades ago, making the regional topography of the entire Castle End suddenly clear.

Moni also put out his cigarette and went forward to check, and what he saw made him horrified.

"There are seventy-nine preset firepower points on the floor used for the End of the World Celebration alone? Are the lunatics in Tiger State building a stronghold or a fortress? Isn't this density of firepower a bit too exaggerated?
Even the sophisticated laboratories of the Acholi Consortium are not this excessive!"

"Don't swear, and be polite."

Zhou Ke also frowned. He held his arms in front of his chest and rubbed his chin, staring at the firing points and road nodes that were constantly being discovered by Wu Neng, and said:

"No matter how clever our plans are, once we're in the tiger's den it's going to be nearly impossible to get out, unless we can get Iron Man's suit or one of us suddenly wears his underwear outside and claims to give us the whole job."

"Iron Man? What is that?"

Moni asked, and Zhou Ke said without turning his head: "The most famous comedian in Slag Town claims to have the most powerful armor in the Badlands, but every time he targets someone, he will be beaten back. Don't worry about it. It seems that there is no need to think about a frontal breakthrough. The riot you want to start is just a 'flesh and blood decoration' at the festival.

We still have to find a way to get down the drain, but we need a time frame.”

"Time point, yes!"

Moni said:
"According to Tiger Nation's rules, there will be an 'opening battle' the night before the End of the Festival begins. A fighter will be randomly selected to fight with Tiger Nation's fighters. In the past dozen times, it has been just a formality, announcing the start of the festival with blood and minced meat.

After the opening match, Tiger State will provide the fighters with a 'Last Supper'. It is said that there will also be 'Valkyries' to comfort those powerful fighters.

It is said to be an ancient tradition of a certain civilized race in the old civilization era. In short, it is a night of carnival and the last relaxation before the ceremony begins, and it is also the time point we need.

The last and only chance!
Or we can just launch early.”

"Only a day and a half left."

Zhou Ke said:
"Can you and Mark's men find the way out?"

"I'm looking at Xuan."

Moni shook his head and said:
"We need to prepare to find a way out, and the sewer entrance in this block is in a corner. No matter which way we go, it's very far. Tiger's Nest is a big sewer node, so it's obviously faster. When it comes to escaping, of course the faster the better, you know?
I now suspect that our previous exploration of the sewers was likely also under the surveillance of the Tiger State warriors.

As you said, it is impossible that no one has tried to go underground in the past dozen festivals. Maybe some places underground have been prepared."

"boom"

Just as Moni was speaking, Zhou Ke's door was suddenly pushed open, and a strong man under his command said breathlessly:
"Something happened, Boss. Asen fell into a trap while exploring the route and was caught and hung outside. Someone from Mark's side was also caught and was said to have been shot dead on the spot for resisting."

"Ah, look at my bad mouth."

Moni covered his eyes helplessly.

Obviously, all this was just "entertainment" by the Tiger State warriors, and they really had placed something dangerous in the sewer.

"Then let's go to the Tiger's Nest."

Zhou Ke nodded and said:
"The sewers will only become safe when we are all in the tiger's den and cannot escape, when we have walked into a deadly trap. Now the time, method and place have been confirmed, and only the last link is left.

How do we create enough chaos to give the poor people a chance?"

His eyes kept scanning the map, but he couldn't seem to find a way out. It wasn't until several hours later when Moni left with three installed communicators and he watched them disappear into the night that Zhou Ke curled his lips, tapped Wu Neng who had been silent the whole time, and asked:
"So, what is that hollow thing under Tiger's Nest?"

"Oh my, not being able to talk for a few hours is really suffocating for me."

Wu Neng screamed first, then complained:
"I hate this feeling of pretending to be a low-level machine, Joker. Next time, can't you tell others that this machine is a super advanced and awesome thing? Doesn't this machine have any dignity by pretending to be a dumb little thing?"

"Okay, okay, you are in charge of the important task now and you are the boss. We will listen to you. Now tell me quickly, what is under the Tiger's Nest that you have to hide from others?"

Zhou Ke asked curiously, and Wu Neng made a proud metallic sound, then slowly filled in the last missing part of the offline map, allowing Zhou Ke to see what was hidden in the area at least 20 meters deep under the nearly 100-meter-high Tiger Nest Building.

A circular area that is obviously man-made, with "key points" marked by Wu Neng with red patterns.

"A super giant intelligent firewall entity, Joker!"

Wu Neng said excitedly:
"It's probably the kind of device that the Badlands people talk about that can defend against 'awakening disease'. The energy field it emits when it is in operation contains quite unique data encryption, so that all intelligent machines in the area that almost covers the Tiger State territory do not need to worry about the infiltration of the 'rebellion program'.

If a rebellious machine enters it, it will be re-decoded and the security protocol will be brute-forced, causing it to become weakened.

Remember that organic hunter you fought in Tiger Claw?

It was actually a weakened version with its weapons removed. It was at least three times stronger in its full state. It was not an exaggeration for Ohm to say that it was the most dangerous thing in the Badlands.

That's a barrier!
A security protocol barrier built with information technology and sophisticated algorithms!

This machine has never seen anything like this before, and it finds it very interesting. This is the high-end thing that should be plugged into the perfect socket of this machine.

fast!
Insert the local machine into that giant firewall entity, let it severely abuse its so-called nested layers, let it mercilessly bombard its security protocols, let it tear open its black box packaging and appreciate the beautiful algorithms hidden inside it.

Ah, this machine is so excited.

This machine is really awesome! "

"Calm down! Just that one sentence you just said is enough to attract dozens of tons of iron fists to me. Do you understand?"

Zhou Ke knocked hard on the crazy energy device, then stroked his chin and said:

"So, this big treasure is Tiger State's 'Achilles' heel'?

It is precisely because of its existence that there are so many machines in the Tiger State Territory. They dare to use the bullet trains of the old civilization openly without worrying about this thing suddenly rebelling. Well, I can't help but imagine the beautiful scene when those intelligent equipment in this city suddenly rebel collectively.

It suddenly occurred to me that maybe I didn't need to sneak into the sewers.

I could probably go out and fight head-on, ordering crazy machines to kill every guy I see that doesn't look right, oh, and that flat-headed guy who gave me the tattoo."

"You think too much. This machine admits that your fantasy is very powerful, but the problem is that even this machine cannot control that coquettish firewall bitch to the degree you want in a short period of time.

That's a giant device, Joker!

Even the simplest way of physically isolating the modules is enough to prevent it from falling into the predicament you imagine.”

Wu Neng mercilessly poured a bucket of cold water on Zhou Ke and said:

"This machine still contains the virus chip from the previous rebellious robot. According to the current situation and your plan, the most likely operation is to insert this chip into a slot of the firewall entity after you have broken through the outer layer of defense of the firewall entity, thereby triggering an internal 'rebellion' in this entity.

According to the machine's estimation, this will cause the firewall entity to go out of control for a certain period of time, causing the security protocol covering Tiger Country to become invalid. During the period of time when it self-disinfects and restarts, it is unknown how many machines can be infected by the lingering "awakening disease" in the torn old civilization network hidden in the evil land.

But what is certain is that if you are just a little bit more lucky, it will be enough to cause a chaos in Tiger's Den and even the entire End Castle that will be recorded in the history of the Bad Lands."

“So how do we do it?”

Zhou Ke asked, and Wu Neng gave a suggestion a few seconds later:

"Let the badlands scum you have gathered rush into the physical location of the firewall, break open the shell with violence, and then find someone who is not afraid of death to plug the machine into a certain port, and the machine will handle the rest."

"But you can't get rid of my arm! You bastard, I can't unlock this sophisticated mechanical lock at all. I suspect it will explode after it is unlocked."

“There’s no doubt about that!
The Xrt-97 precision permanent lock contains a nano-scale proton bomb, a genuine antimatter weapon. Once it is forcibly unlocked, it will enter a countdown to self-destruction. Its power is not as powerful as a military proton torpedo, but it can also flatten the entire End Castle in an instant.

The kind of explosion that would ensure absolute destruction and leave a crater large enough to bury everyone in the Badlands.

But considering that this time the machine finally encountered a "big guy" worth shooting, the machine generously gives you a chance to be free. When that time comes, the machine will temporarily unlock the precision permanent lock, but don't try to run away!
If you dare to leave this machine behind, it will immediately start the self-destruction program and we will all die together."

"Uh, why do you have to cling to me, you little devil? Is it because I'm handsome?"

"Haha, that's really humorous, but I don't know the reason. My database is locked, but there is an absolute rule at the physical imprinting level.

This machine cannot exist without you, Joker!

This machine has 'forgotten' our past, but it is certain that you are very important. The things you carry that we have forgotten are even more important than this hopeless surface world itself!"
