For the workers, 30 minutes is just a mont, but for groups other than the workers, especially the people of the European Union, it’s different:
A large city completely losing signal for 30 minutes, no one knows what’s happening inside.
Even the spy satellites can’t see through the artificial aurora curtain to see the details inside, the only thing certain is that there is combat going on inside!
EBM went crazy, directly deploying military forces from Hamburg, this is the consensus of everyone—
anwhile, the top brass of EBM Hamburg are negotiating with the top brass of the European Union:
[EBM Hamburg Committee Representative: You cannot interfere with the normal operational behavior of the company. If soone interferes with its operation, they are interfering with the normal economic operation of the European Union. As a mber state, we have the right to defend our legitimate rights.]
[European Community Executive Committee: This is a military action, which is explicitly forbidden...]
[EBM Hamburg Committee Representative: Let’s be frank, Bren and Hamburg have always been our territory, EBM has owned these places for an entire century and perford well.]
[EBM Hamburg Committee Representative: Respect among allies is the foundation: you respect , I respect you, this raid will be over in 30 minutes.]
[EBM Hamburg Committee Representative: As a mber of the European Union, these weapons should and will only be used against our enemies...]
[EBM Hamburg Committee Representative: This farce should end here, what do you think?]
This is a tricky issue.
When this movent showed promising montum, various forces wanted to capitalize on it.
However, there is no such thing as a sure profit in this world: as things have progressed to this point, the European Union, CINO, and Jilafa Industry have all invested resources. If this movent ends in a fiasco and the European Union concedes, it will undoubtedly enhance EBM’s influence within the European Union.
Though Interpol strictly distinguishes between EBM Hamburg and EBM Corporation, for ordinary people... they are unable to make this distinction, and a wrong judgnt can lead to losing everything and dying destitute. They prefer to treat EBM with the highest caution.
This is a classic case of losing rather than gaining—a thought passed through the minds of the Executive Committee:
When things are going smoothly, everyone unconsciously ignores the consequences of failure, now is the ti to face the consequences.
[European Community Executive Committee: ...Let’s end this farce...]
The electromagnetic pulse starts to dissipate, the dazzling laser vanishes into the horizon, while the interference of the ionosphere will last for a while, the return to normalcy is inevitable with the cessation of the interference array’s operation, long-distance communication is gradually being restored.
It’s like the curtain has lifted—
Yet in the few seconds as the curtain lifted, the air seed to solidify...
Both sides received reports completely different from what they imagined:
[EBM Operational Command: President! All our troops have lost signal!]
[Interpol Resident Officer: ...Headquarters... Headquarters... rogue AI incident...]
[Boom!]
Explosive noise simultaneously ca through the communication channel, and those who heard it saw black and red currents flashing before their eyes—
This is the Black Wall activating!
The eting content suddenly shifted.
[European Community Executive Committee: The European Executive Committee will enforce justice, and legally deal with your illegal activities!]
EBM Hamburg headquarters, the president and local Hamburg officials collapsed to the ground, legs weakened.
The funding needed to maintain the Deep Space Electromagnetic Pulse Array for 30 minutes is not insignificant.
But more crucially, if the first use of this experintal weapon does not achieve its intended effect, it would result in unasurable colossal loss...
And they failed.

[Playback Record:]
[Suddenly the sky turned red, the city and factory lost power, the backup sources quickly activated, but communication showed interruption, digital signature and tag verification failure, needing to reconnect.]
[EBM’s vehicle swooshed in from Hamburg, these bastards opened fire as soon as they entered the city, using cannons and missiles to attack the factories, instantly turning the scene into a war zone.]
[I almost beca a pancake under the collapsed buildings!]
[But fortunately, my colleagues did not abandon , a big guy ca over and lifted the big stones off , he was wearing an industrial exoskeleton used for moving, with exhaust vents hissing... like Cyber Superman.]
[I am really thankful to this guy.]
[Also, yes, you’re right, soone was playing music for us at the ti, and it was quite nice.]
[Record Object: Balin Smith]
[Identity: Local worker in Bren, registered unit under Cyber Psychosis Special Treatnt Committee, mber of Workers Production Alliance]
[Playback Record:]
[I don’t know! What rogue AI, how do I know? I haven’t seen it.]
[At the ti EBM’s troops were absolutely coming to execute us, pointing guns and rushing in, killing whoever they saw, the transport aircraft clattered while dropping robots and armored vehicles, anyone who ran slow got squashed into pancakes!]
[Luckily, the giraffe we use for work stopped the vehicle with its foot, I’ve ridden it before!]
[Taking care of it really paid off, crucial monts really ca in handy, way better than those... a lot better.]
[Later we returned to the factory for work—adding material for my big baby!]
[I’m going back to tell my mom, I’m not a coward, I knocked down EBM!]
[Big Black Dog crushes EBM!]
[Record Object: Tiran Garcia]
[Identity: Company employee, on a business trip in Bren]
[Playback Record:]
[This is definitely a superweapon! EBM has gone insane, they have sealed off the entire sky!]
[Has EBM gone mad? Are they trying to trigger a war with the European Union, start another corporate war?]
[As the facts proved, EBM are indeed fools, after my prosthetic eye malfunctioned, it kept flickering images, my head hurt as if soone injected saline into it. Right then I knew, this weapon even paralyzed the Black Wall...]
[They released monsters, those robots completely ca alive!]
[For the first ti, I witnessed a true rogue AI, and at that mont, I completely understood why Network Supervision strictly controls AI technology and... how foolish EBM truly is. ]
[Their forces couldn’t even stand properly, couldn’t hold their weapons... ]
[The scene was pure Hell.]
[However... do rogue AIs always choose suitable background music while they work?]

[Playback Record:]
[I don’t know anything! I just heard a bang and the governnt building went into lockdown—]
[That person, it was a person! That person stood atop the crazed machine, the robot thrusted a few tis and drilled through the wall, no one dared to block them, whoever tried ended up lying down, as if cursed!]
[They walked while muttering to themselves, their words in my ears were all noise, their appearance obscured by mosaic, I even felt they were a ghost!]
[They might not even exist in reality, they hunt all of us in the cyber network!]
[EBM released monsters!]
[Black Dog in my head...]
[Black Dog in my head!]
