Chapter 666: Chapter 37 Turing and the Fourth Dreamland Chapter 666: Chapter 37 Turing and the Fourth Dreamland Bang!!
A deafening gunshot at close range.
The large caliber bullet pierced directly through Kevin Walker’s forehead and then blasted a large hole in the back of his head, sending his upper body toppling back onto the equipnt rack.
Blood and brain matter mixed together and stuck to several computer mainfras…dripping down thickly.
There were no screams,
no ferocious trembling,
everything returned to silence.
In front of such a terrifying weapon, all life was so fragile and brief.
But Lin Xian didn’t relax at all.
...
Kevin Walker’s bizarre actions just now made him wonder if there really was soone else in the room?
If there wasn’t anybody else…
[Then who was Kevin Walker talking to just now?]
Gunfighting is different from ordinary combat; life and death are determined in an instant.
Hence, Lin Xian had never intended to give Kevin Walker any chance of survival from the start.
rcy towards an enemy is cruelty towards oneself.
Although it was a rare opportunity, if he had interrogated Kevin Walker, he might have been able to extract useful information before killing him.
But countless painful historical lessons show that villains die because they talk too much.
In the current uncertain situation, with unclear counterasures, and being in a ho field that he was unfamiliar with, especially since Kevin Walker was obviously communicating with soone…
For his own safety, he couldn’t let the enemy live a second longer.
Letting Kevin Walker live another second brought him a second closer to death.
This was also the most useful experience Lin Xian had sumd up from playing gunfights in dreams all these years—
Never be overconfident or arrogant about interrogating the enemy if you don’t have an absolute advantage or have eliminated all dangers.
It was just like giving the enemy a chance to think, prepare, and turn defeat into victory.
Especially since this was the real world where you only have one life.
Outside, Yu Xi and the Ti-Space Assassin were fighting relentlessly; inside, it was unclear who Kevin Walker was talking to…
Thus Lin Xian made a decisive move, not giving Kevin Walker any chance to fight back, and instantly killed him!
He could collect intelligence and clues later.
If he were killed due to excessive talking, there would be no ‘later’ to discuss.
After confirming Kevin Walker was thoroughly dead,
Lin Xian imdiately grabbed the Smith & Wesson M500 revolver that was on the table, holding it in his left hand.
Then he crouched down, hugged the wall tightly, held his breath, and listened for any movent in the house.
He listened very carefully,
very intently,
Besides the faint buzzing of the fans in various computer cases…
there was indeed no other sound in the whole house.
He used the steps and movents honed in his dreams to probe the corners of the house, and ultimately confird that there was indeed no one else in the room.
Lin Xian breathed a sigh of relief and stood up.
That was a bit strange.
If there really was no one else in the room, then who was Kevin Walker furiously shouting at earlier?
It couldn’t possibly have been at the computer, or sothing like Tmall Genie, or Artificial Intelligence, could it?
He rembered the words Kevin Walker roared earlier:
“You lied to !
You betrayed !
You even betrayed yourself!”
“We are supposed to be the sa person!
What were you thinking!!”
…
At that mont, Kevin Walker was furiously pounding the table, clearly very angry and resentful, very surprised and shocked, as if his worldview and philosophy of life had suddenly collapsed.
It was precisely because his thod of communication was too “human” that Lin Xian, to be safe, did not initially think it was a conversation with an Artificial Intelligence AI.
Based on Lin Xian’s understanding of Artificial Intelligence in the current era…
Such impotent rage was sothing current era AI could not understand or respond to, unless Kevin Walker, like himself, possessed a smart super Artificial Intelligence like VV.
In any case.
After confirming there were no imdiate threats in the house, Lin Xian began to gather information and intelligence within his field of vision.
But after scanning around…
Kevin Walker, being a hacker, truly had implented paperless office to the extre; after scanning nearby, there was no paper material except for the toilet paper.
He shook the mouse and pressed the keyboard.
The monitor lit up, but there was a password lock, and it seed impossible to crack it in a short ti.
Outside, Yu Xi and the Ti-Space Assassin were fiercely fighting; although he couldn’t help much, he still needed to go out and assist Yu Xi as soon as possible…
At least he could lead Yu Xi to temporarily retreat.
In the current situation, where he couldn’t intervene, letting Yu Xi and the Ti-Space Assassin fight 1V1 was clearly disadvantageous, rather than retreating first, waiting to find a way to break the Ti-Space Assassin’s immunity to the laws of Space-Ti, and then having a 2V1 advantage.
Just as Lin Xian thought the assassination trip was going to be fruitless, he suddenly noticed sothing!
It was a peripheral toy product of the movie “Wandering Earth 2″—
a Digital Life USB drive!
Lin Xian had seen this item online.
Right after the New Year of 2023, he had gone to the cinema with Tang Xin to watch the science fiction movie “Wandering Earth 2” back in East Sea.
The movie was quite interesting, and at that ti it was very popular, with related news all over the internet.
There was also a high demand for crowdfunding for peripherals.
Lin Xian vaguely rembered that among many crowdfunded peripheral products, this Digital Life USB drive had the highest level of attention, with the crowdfunding amount DIRECTLY breaking through several hundred million.
