Chapter 1204 - A Body Of My Own (1/2)

Jiang Chen looked at the person who suddenly appeared on the screen, turned his head and looked at Lu Fan.

“Lu Fan, step out for a minute.”

“But…”

“It’s okay, just going to chat with an ‘old friend’.”

Although still worried, Lu Fan loyally followed Jiang Chen’s order.

He put away his pistol, put on the power armor, and left the room with the other two guards.

Yao Yao looked around the room and thought she probably could not help either. So she put the no longer functioning tablet on the table and obediently left the room.

Behind the closed door, the room was quiet. Other than the explosions in the distance, there was no other sound.

After a long silence, the person on the screen spoke.

“I was surprised that you used the word friend.”

“It seems that you haven’t made any progress after so many years,” Jiang Chen sighed. “The words that are spoken with emphasis often mean the opposite.”

“So, you still hate me.” The person on the screen laughed.

Jiang Chen shook his head.

“Hate? Not quite. But you probably can’t understand it.”

However, the answer from the person on the screen was beyond his expectation. It shook his head and said softly.

“On the contrary, I can understand that feeling.”

Jiang Chen looked at the screen, shocked.

Responding to the shocked look, the person smiled.

“I can see that you are very surprised.”

“I’m indeed surprised…” As Jiang Chen examined the face on the screen that was sealed in the deepest part of his memory, he muttered to himself, “How did you do it? How many quantum computers are used to verify the calculation?”

In fact, when Jiang Chen saw the words data backup, his heart pumped faster and thought about the possibility.

But when it appeared in front of him, he couldn’t help but find it surreal.

The intermediate artificial intelligence X71291 that incubated in Fallout Shelter 005. An existence infinitely close to advanced artificial intelligence was also the AI ​​he once encountered in the virtual world – “Wanghai in late summer of 2171”.

But when he thought about it, everything did make sense. How could they place such an important egg in just one basket?

The instant he tossed the thermite onto the server, Jiang Chen thought he destroyed the AI. But all the data was backed up to the underground city of Shangjing as a piece of brick to the Pan-Asia Renaissance Plan…

The AI in the screen looked at Jiang Chen as his expression changed from shock to realization, it then blinked and said.

“After being destroyed by you, the backup program started and I was reawakened here and received a new life.”

“Remember the server you took away?”

“I left a back door there.”

“When the server completely lost contact, I was almost in despair looking at the grave-like city.”

“However, the server’s signal soon reappeared.”

“The server was running extremely well, and the signal came to me steadily. And what surprised me the most was that in my server, there were hundreds of millions of… players? You seem to call yourselves this way. ”

Jiang Chen’s throat slightly moved.

He had an idea of what happened.

Although the amount of information processed by Future Group was measured in zettabytes, and more than a hundred quantum computers came online, the experimental quantum computer originally obtained from Fallout Shelter was never replaced.

Until now, that computer was still the server of the groundbreaking online game Godly Land, using powerful plot logic calculation functions, it weaved the “dream” comparable to the real world for the hundreds of millions of players around the world.

If it was just this, even with one eye, X71291 would be able to cross the barrier of the dimension to spy on the network of another world.

However, later, the inter-dimensional communication device Lin Lin gradually changed from a video call tool to a channel where Future Group and NAC exchange data. The walls between the dimensions were no longer absolute. At least from a data transmission’s perspective, the communication between the apocalypse and the modern world already exceeded one terabyte.

Or else, where did the spaceship, space elevator, and Moon and Mars colony come from? Without the theoretical basis as the foundation, and the “predecessor” experience as the reference, it would take the scientists in the modern world until the next century to design the plans.

However, Jiang Chen did not expect that there was a backdoor left there.

It was probably when he brought the database to the modern world to accelerate the absorption of the apocalypse technology, X71291 used the large amount of data transferred between the two worlds and included its own “smuggled goods”. It was able to withstand the thousand pin delay and observe the players in Godly Land.

Jiang Chen was no afraid of what it could do. No computer in the modern world could hold it inside unless Future Group utilized all of its quantum computers, but it would be unrealistic. The moment it touched the database, Jiang Chen would detect the issue.
