Shadow trail of the beautiful world

Chapter 553 14. Data Crisis

"That is to say, Tony Stark just saved the world? It's unimaginable. Well, listen to me, Fury, our biggest problem right now is that the Decepticons are guarding the desert base, and we currently have It is very difficult for power to defeat their defenses head-on."

Merlin stepped back to his home and said to Fury:

"The tinder has already fallen into their hands. No one knows what they will do with the tinder. I have a plan. I plan to sneak in there and grab the tinder. But this will inevitably lead to a crazy counterattack from the Decepticons."

"Once the fire is taken away by me, the Decepticons who are now on the defensive will definitely come out."

Merlin says:

"According to the situation of the encounter last night, the current defense system around the desert can hardly stop this group of flying mechanical life."

"Their field of warfare is something we are not good at. In the confrontation of science and technology, we are undoubtedly at a disadvantage. A Decepticon aircraft can easily destroy our entire flight formation. Not to mention, no amount of troops will help."

"So you and Pierce have to be prepared for the possibility of a mass casualty event."

"Well, I can understand."

Fury on the other end of the communicator nodded heavily. He said a few words to someone around him, then turned to look at Merlin, and said:

"Dr. Reed Richards, who was invited here, just told me that he can find a way to cut off the satellite system that has been infiltrated by Decepticons. It's like blindfolding them so that they can't do what they are doing now. Monitor our movements in real time."

"Tony Stark and Mr. Lex Luthor are also cooperating to expel the Decepticon data flow all over the network. They will build a wall that will not be penetrated in a short time for our counterattack at the data level. This is to ensure the confidentiality of our communication."

"Well, that's a great idea."

Merlin's eyes lit up, and he said:

"If this can really be done, then we can launch a full-scale raid without alerting the Decepticons in advance. The only question is, can that Dr. Reed really do it? "

Facing Merlin's doubts, Fury also said with some uncertainty:

"He needs 2-4 hours to learn the combination of Cybertronian text and data. Once he understands the basic rules of those data signals, he will be sure to cut off the Decepticon's hijacking of our technological power. .”

"Can you learn this in 2-4 hours?"

Merlin's complexion became even weirder, and he said:

"Are you sure he can really do it? Or is he just bragging?"

"Fury, this matter is very important. If we can't lift the Decepticons' suppression of us at the technological level, we can't even talk about fighting back. You have to hand this matter over to someone who can definitely make people feel at ease. ..I mean, why don't you let Tony try?"

Merlin whispered:

"Although I don't like him, I still recognize his talent in the field of data technology."

"It's Dr. Reed Richards recommended to me by Tony Stark."

Fury said:

"Tony thinks Dr. Reed can do what he promised."

"Huh? So the narcissistic guy also admits that Dr. Reed is better than him?"

Merlin rubbed his chin, and after a while, he said to Fury:

"Okay, let him go to the ghost base, and my researcher George will help him learn the knowledge of the Cybertronians faster and deeper."

"But he only has a maximum of 4 hours..."

Merlin took out his pocket watch and looked at it. He said to Fury:

"After 4 hours, whether he does what he promised or not, I have to start. Also, Fury, I need access to 98084-3."

"Crush? What do you want it for?"

Fury said suspiciously:

"The Decepticon that was captured by us for more than five years has been completely disassembled, and it is difficult to put it back together in a short time."

"Because only a Cybertronian can stand up to a Cybertronian."

Merlin says:

"I want to find a way to transform Shatter so that it can stand on our side in this battle. The Decepticons have an absolute advantage in numbers, and we must also make rational use of all the resources we have at hand."

"Can you transform it?"

Fury asked:

"Can you make sure it doesn't mutiny in battle?"

"I can't, I'm not good at this."

Merlin said with a normal expression:

"But fortunately, someone on our side can do it. As for the problem of betrayal... format the memory database, and then rewrite the memory data for the robot. The advantage of robots is here, they can't even remember It's data that can be changed, if we find the right way."

"It's currently stored in the 'Slingshot' base. I'll give you enough permissions, but the question is, is 4 hours enough?"

Fury said:

"You don't see how our scientists disassembled it... It's like a bunch of loose blocks, and it may take a lot of time to put it back together."

"Never mind, the people of Cybertron are very good at reorganizing this. Alright, Fury, we'll split up."

Merlin hung up the communication, and then transferred the authority given by Fury to Fei Guoshan and Arcie. These two gentle robots from Cybertron will complete the next thing.

As for the bumble bee...

This unlucky guy was injured too badly, Merlin had to hurry up and use the repair spell to restore the fragmented body of the bumblebee.

"Maybe you can do some enhancements by the way..."

Merlin turned over and walked back to the mysterious room. In the workshop of the mysterious room, Merlin looked at the dying bumblebee lying on the ground. He rubbed his chin. After a while, he said to Icarus:

"Give me a call to Mr. T'Challa, I need to 'borrow' some vibranium from him. Um...forget it, call Eric, he's better off with this, I hope he That prince of Wakanda might still be useful."

----------

"They are aware of our blockade, the data flow is spreading, like a virus."

On the beautiful beach in California, the titular owner of Stark Industries, a young playboy and billionaire, is also a world-renowned genius inventor and data expert Tony Stark, this very narcissistic guy At this time, she was wearing a pajamas and sitting in the basement of the mansion.

Fifteen minutes ago, he had just brought the world back from the brink of destruction.

To be honest, Tony himself didn't expect that the means he prepared for his own bad taste would actually come in handy.

But now, in front of his eyes, on the three projections suspended in mid-air, many monitored data are being calculated in real time, and in the outside world, His Excellency Tony, who has always been acting carefree, has a very serious expression at this moment.

It's like a soldier who has stepped onto the battlefield, eager for more victories.

It also looks like a game player who has finally met his opponent. The edge of true wisdom is radiating from Tony's eyes bit by bit.

This guy, who was always lazy and casual, really became serious at this moment.

"Jarvis, refactor the monitoring program and allocate more resources to the tracking program."

Holding a cup of coffee, Tony said to the empty air:

"I'm going to catch every Cybertronian on the loose...it's like playing whack-a-mole, hell, they're like data ghosts, but luckily, they're not invisible."

"Okay, sir."

A gentle voice resounded beside Tony. It sounded very much like the old butler Jarvis who was by his side. Unfortunately, the old butler who took care of Tony for many years had passed away due to illness a few years ago.

Tony built an artificial intelligence himself, which he called "Jarvis", and he hoped to commemorate the important people in his life in this way.

The calculation speed of Tony's artificial intelligence Jarvis is obviously not as powerful as Merlin's Icarus, but considering that when Tony made Jarvis, he did not position Jarvis as a complete artificial intelligence with independent consciousness , so from the level of technological symbolism, Jarvis and Icarus, who has already developed self-emotions, are not products of the same level.

Although Tony Stark is proud and conceited, he still has the most basic sense. He is very clear in this era, what kind of terrible situation will be represented by the emergence of a complete and uncontrolled artificial intelligence.

This world is not yet ready to accept that kind of data soul, just like it looks so vulnerable in the face of the eager Cybertronian invasion.

"The nuclear weapon data defense system has been attacked again!"

Just as Tony was tracking down the Decepticons running around on the Internet, a sharp siren sounded in Tony's laboratory. When he turned his head, he saw a big intrusion siren flashing on the screen behind him. with.

"Throw it to that big bald head! I don't have time to wipe politicians' asses right now."

Tony waved his hand indifferently, and said:

"If Lex Luthor is really as smart as the legend says, then he must have a way. To be honest, I'm also curious, where is the limit of Mr. Luthor's amazing IQ..."

Jarvis faithfully carried out Tony's orders.

Soon, this warning from the government was quickly turned to a mansion in Gotham City. Like Tony who was busy, Sir Lex Luthor, who was invited by Fury to join this data defense and counterattack battle, He is also sitting in the data room of his home, fighting against the Cybertronians who have fully invaded the Internet with his assistants.

"Another invasion warning?"

Lex Luthor, this scientific genius in a neat black suit, with a shiny bald head and a serious face, stood above the data room. When he raised his head, he saw the dazzling alarm on the big screen in front of him. He calmed down. Looking at the alarm in front of him, after a while, he waved his hand and said to the dozen or so data experts below who were busy typing on the keyboard:

"Mr. Tony Stark perfectly showed us how to defend against this kind of data attack 15 minutes ago. I don't think I need to explain the principle to you again."

"Execute Data Protocol No. 17! Block all information exchanges between the North American continent's weapons of mass destruction arsenal and the outside world, and call Nick Fury, if he doesn't want to see a group of drones carrying tactical missiles being attacked by those Cyber If the Tanners control the flight to the White House, let those damn analog signal permissions be opened to me immediately!"

"With all due respect, Mr. Luther."

Behind Lex Luthor, a middle-aged man wearing a somewhat worn-out flight jacket said softly:

"Nick Fury can't give you all data access, in fact, he doesn't have that access. The big shots in the White House have their own worries and doubts."

"Mr. Trevor, the White House sent you here to help me, not to pour cold water on me."

Lex Luthor with a serious face said without looking back:

"You have also seen the situation in front of you. Maybe you can't understand it, so let me explain it to you."

The bald man with a cold temperament looked at the big screen in front of him, and said indifferently:

"From 1 hour and 35 minutes ago, when these data signals called 'Deuterons' first appeared on the Internet, to now, in just 90 minutes, 70% of the world's databases have been crushed. full-scale invasion."

"In 90 minutes, our world evaporated more than [-] billion funds, and the rules and order at the network level were completely disrupted. If it is described as a world, then this world is on the verge of collapse."

Luther's tone became colder and colder:

"And the only reason why nuclear war hasn't broken out in the real world is because me, Tony Stark, Reed Richards, etc., the most outstanding data experts among mankind, are helping you clean up this mess .”

"But for soldiers with unique skills, there is no chance of winning against a strong enemy with their hands and feet tied. If we can only passively defend like we are now, then I can tell you responsibly, Mr. Trevor, at most 2 Hours later, our last position will be defeated by these data beings in various ways!"

"The last line of defense blocking them will be completely disintegrated, and the collapse of the online world will cause chaos in the real world. Those robots can make our social order and civilization fall apart in an instant without even using force."

The bald head turned back, he looked at the real leader of the Tianyan Society, and said word by word:

"And I, I don't want to fight a losing war!"

"Please pass on my words to the big shots in the White House right now without changing a single word!"

"Tell them, if they want to win! Give me the authority! I want a higher level of authority than Tony Stark. Only in this way can I modify the data protocol he wrote so that the thing can be more efficient. way of working.”

Luther stretched out his hand to straighten his collar, he opened the first button of the collar, and he said to Trevor:

"This is the first battle between human wisdom and data life. Every war requires sacrifice. Without sacrifice, there is no victory! If they are not willing to take risks, then I have nothing to do...Are they worried that I will tamper with nuclear weapons? Data, threaten them with nukes, and become king of the world?"

The imposing bald gentleman sneered, and he said to Trevor:

"No, I'm not interested in world domination, and if I wanted to, I would have done so."

Trevor didn't immediately answer Lex Luke's question. He looked at Luther. After a few seconds, he picked up the encrypted communicator and said to Luther:

"If you are as the rumors say, Mr. Luthor, you are a person who is not bound by order. I am also curious why people like you accept Nick Fury's invitation to join this data In war?"

"Some people read "War and Peace" and naively think it's just an adventure story."

Lex Luthor still maintained that expressionless look, he didn't answer Trevor's question directly, he said:

"And other people can unlock the secrets of the world and even the universe by looking at the ingredient list on the back of the chewing gum, do you understand what I mean, Mr. Trevor."

The bald Luthor turned around, ignoring Trevor who was in touch with the White House. He looked at the data jumping on the screen in front of him, and said softly:

"In this world, people are different from each other."

"Playing too much easy mode will make people bored... Now that the Cybertronians want to humiliate the glory of human intelligence, then they have to pass me first..."
