Chapter 795: Superpower Outsmarted By Technology?
Because this matter was too strange, Su Yang looked at the glass phone in his hand and asked Little Deeny, who was beside him, “Little Deeny, what’s going on? Is it because I used the glass phone in virtual space?”
A blue light flashed across Little Deeny’s eyes, and then he said in confusion, “That shouldn’t be the case. In the virtual world, it doesn’t matter whether you use the virtual interface or the glass phone, it’s just a dium.”
She added, “Also, I just checked our communication status. There’s nothing wrong with the operator’s line. However, it’s true that there is no sound being transmitted.”
At that mont, suspicion was written all over Su Yang’s face. ‘Sothing’s not quite right. If Wang Dong had called the wrong number, then he should have hung up the phone directly, or there would have been no sound at all, rather than him actually greeting .
‘However, if he had not made the wrong call, there should have been more content after he greeted .
‘Even if I take a whole load of steps back, he should have hung up the phone directly after he regretted making the phone call, rather than staying silent for 10 seconds before hanging up.’
The more Su Yang thought about it, the more he felt that sothing was amiss. After hesitating for a while, he took out his phone and sent Wang Dong a WeChat ssage. ‘Did you call just now?’
Wang Dong replied very quickly. ‘Huh? Yes, I did.’
Su Yang saw that Wang Dong’s behaviour did not seem to have tallied with how he had been silent for more than 10 seconds a mont ago, so he imdiately called Wang Dong via WeChat.
A mont later, the call was answered. Wang Dong’s puzzled voice sounded. “What’s wrong, Mr. Su? Is there a problem with what I said just now?”
Su Yang’s heart skipped a beat. “What did you just say?”
At that mont, Wang Dong, who was in his rented apartnt, was completely confused as he said, “I just told you about the Wangs.”
‘The Wangs?’
Su Yang’s frown deepened as an ominous feeling in his heart grew.
Suddenly, knocking ca from the other end of the phone.
There was a knock on the door and Su Yang heard a woman’s voice saying, “Who is it? Please wait a mont.” Then, there was the sound of footsteps.
The ominous feeling in Su Yang’s heart soared to its peak. With a flash of inspiration, he figured everything out. He hurriedly shouted towards the phone, “Wang Dong! Don’t open the door!”
On the other end, when Wang Dong received Su Yang’s call, his mind was filled with doubts.
Even though Su Yang did not say a word when he was talking to Su Yang about the Wangs, he thought that it was because Su Yang did not want to talk to him and his speech was coherent.
Later, Su Yang sent him a WeChat ssage and a voice ssage, asking him what he had said. He felt weird, but his muddled brain could not guess what had happened.
In the end, soone knocked on the door, but Su Yang shouted for him not to open it. Hence, he was even more confused, not knowing what Su Yang was doing.
Just as he was stunned, his girlfriend opened the door.
Outside the door were five big n in black suits, dressed like the people from the Wangs whom Wang Dong had seen in the afternoon. When they saw the door open, they imdiately pushed it open roughly. Then, two big n grabbed Wang Dong’s girlfriend rcilessly, while the other three rushed towards Wang Dong!
When Wang Dong’s girlfriend saw this scene, she could not help wanting to scream out in horror. However, her mouth was directly covered by one of the n, and she could only let out muffled sounds.
While Wang Dong was in a state of shock, he could only rely on his instincts to shout, “What are you guys doing!” Imdiately after, he was pressed onto the ground by the three hunks and similarly covered his mouth...
...
At the sa ti, Su Yang, who heard Wang Dong’s shout, had a dark expression.
At that mont, how could he not know that sothing had happened to Wang Dong?
In the two sentences that Wang Dong said earlier, Su Yang roughly guessed the truth of the matter. ‘The Wangs might have gone to look for Wang Dong to look for so unspeakable secrets, such as wanting to fra or dig up dirt on .
‘Although Wang Dong ended up rejecting the Wangs, he has no idea just how powerful they are. Hence, he wanted to warn about them.
‘In the end, he didn’t expect that the Wangs were able to control the cellphone base station or even his cellphone’s communication route nearby. When they detected Wang Dong calling , they imdiately jamd the call and have now sent people over to capture Wang Dong, the informant.
‘So, obviously, it was the Wangs who had gone knocking on Wang Dong’s door.’
Hearing Wang Dong’s shout, Su Yang knew that his guess was right. And he also knew that with the Wangs’s thods, Wang Dong would very likely disappear from this world if he was captured.
At that mont, Su Yang hesitated a little.
Although Wang Dong had once left him when he needed him the most, no matter what, he was still the person who had accompanied Su Yang when they first opened up the company. Thus, the two of them still had so ties. Furthermore, this ti, Wang Dong rejected the Wangs and was now in a crisis because he leaked the news to Su Yang. Hence, it was only logical that Su Yang could not leave him alone.
At that thought, Su Yang no longer hesitated as he looked at Little Deeny. “Little Deeny, locate Wang Dong’s position.”
Little Deeny was stunned for a mont. “Master, how do we locate him? Wang Dong isn’t using our glass phone. I don’t have the ability to hack into other companies’ servers for the ti being, so I can’t find him.”
Su Yang said firmly, “Search for Wang Dong’s accounts from both of our apps and locate him through his phone. Although he left his job, there’s a high probability that he didn’t delete the two apps.”
Su Yang’s way of thinking was very simple. Humans were a type of creature that loved to “compare” and be “nostalgic”. Hence, even after resigning from a company, it was very normal for that person to pay attention to that company’s news. Thus, Su Yang thought that Wang Dong might not be an exception.
Even though there were people who would not do that, Su Yang could only take a gamble since there was no better way.
Fortunately, Su Yang won the bet. With Su Yang’s train of thought, it did not take Little Deeny more than a second to obtain the access rights to Wang Dong’s Find app’s account.
Then, with a wave of her hand, a full map and a route’s map appeared before Su Yang.
Su Yang morized the map seriously and gave Little Deeny and the little monsters a few instructions. Then, he raised his hands up high and lowered them slowly.
As he slowly descended, the space and ti around him were imdiately frozen, Su Yang had activated his A-Ranked Silver Ability [Hands Of Fate].
After using his ability, Su Yang left the virtual space and hovered above the hotel like a giant god.
He then recited the address of the rental apartnt Wang Dong was renting and flew across the entire Shanghai.
One minute later, Su Yang arrived at Wang Dong’s location.
Because there was a difference in positioning, he could only know the geographical location and not which floor he was at. Hence, Su Yang entered the building and searched through the floors.
Ti continued to tick by...
Finally, he found Wang Dong’s rental apartnt at the mont when the ti limit of how long he could freeze ti for, 10 minutes, was approaching.
In the frozen scene, Wang Dong’s girlfriend was pressed against the door by two n in black, covering her mouth. Her frozen face was filled with fear and terror. Wang Dong, on the other hand, was also pressed against the ground by three n, his face filled with confusion and shock.
Hence, Su Yang did not waste any ti. With a wave of his hand, he sent all seven of them into two dark basent rooms in the virtual space.
Then, with another wave of his hand, the door closed, and he entered the virtual space.
The next mont, the ability got deactivated and ti returned to normal.
In fact, the soundproofing of the rental house Wang Dong was living in was obviously not very good because Wang Dong’s shouts earlier and the fighting noises as he opened the door still spread out a little. Thus, a neighbor opened the door curiously and looked over, but he only saw a tightly shut door, as if it had never been opened.
Then, the neighbour leaned his head in to listen again to make sure there was no sound. After that, he shook his head and closed the door. ‘I might have been hearing things...’
...
At that mont, in the virtual space, Su Yang felt a lingering fear. The race against ti he had just gone through made his heart race.
‘Just a second ago, I was still stargazing with Little Deeny, Little Hus, and the rest. The next second, such a huge incident happened. If not for his alertness, Wang Dong and his wife might have been thrown into the sea to feed the fish.
‘But, no matter what, everything turned out well. At the very least, Wang Dong’s crisis is temporarily resolved and I’ve also had ti to understand the situation specifically.’
With that thought in mind, Su Yang went down to the basent and went to the room where Wang Dong and his girlfriend were kept.
At that mont, the husband and wife were hugging each other tightly in the dark room. They did not know what to do. On top of that, their mory still lingered on the mont they opened the door and saw the five n rushing in.
One second, they were being pressed down, and the next second, they realized that their vision had turned black, and it felt like they had been moved into a completely dark room.
This series of events made them feel like they were living in a dream.
Then, Su Yang opened the door and slamd the hourglass on the wall. He needed to know the details in the shortest ti possible.
Very soon, Wang Dong’s mory labyrinth appeared in front of Su Yang. Su Yang looked through Wang Dong’s recent mories and found out about the whole story, as well as... Wang Dong’s guilt and repentance towards him.
However, Su Yang did not feel guilty or repentant because of Wang Dong. There was no fluctuation on his face in fact, because In his opinion, it was really too late...
‘There are just so things that disappear once it’s missed...’
After checking Wang Dong’s mories of the Wangs, Su Yang stopped the hourglass. He had a rough understanding of the Wangs and Wang Dong.
After that, he left Wang Dong’s mory labyrinth, then turned around and left the room rcilessly.
As the door closed, darkness filled the room again.
To Wang Dong and his girlfriend, they only saw a person walking in before turning around and walking out. They did not even see who it was because Su Yang’s back was facing the light in the corridor the entire ti, so only his silhouette could be seen.
As for Su Yang, he had already found out everything he needed to know.
After exiting the room, Su Yang threw the hourglass to Qing Zhu, who was waiting outside. Qing Zhu took the hourglass, and Satantan imdiately spat out blood from his throat, dyeing the hourglass red. The sand in the hourglass returned to the surface and reset the number of tis it could be used.
After that, Qing Zhu bowed to Su Yang and went to the room next door. She then copied Su Yang’s maneuvers and checked the mories of one of the n in black.
After checking his mory, she walked out and handed the hourglass to Little Deeny. Little Deeny then handed her a tape recorder, which was [A Videotape To Record Good mories], allowing Qing Zhu to record everything that she had seen.
Hence, Qing Zhu took the tape, pressed it to her forehead, and began recording her mories. anwhile, Little Deeny took the hourglass and walked into the room...
Just like that, the little monsters took turns to enter the room, reading and recording the mories of the five n in black.
Finally, Gru, who had extended its limbs, released the five n in black and walked out of the room. It was also because it controlled these n in black that the monsters’ mory inspection beca simple.
The reason why Su Yang used such complicated operations was mainly because the side effects of the [mory Labyrinth Hourglass] were too great, so Su Yang did not dare to let himself or any particular little monster use it six tis in a row. If that happened, either one of them might go crazy.
After recording all the mories, Su Yang had Little Deeny’s doppelgangers take a look at the mories and summarize the information.
Compared to Wang Dong only knowing a portion of his information, the information these n in black knew was clearly more comprehensive.
Soon, Su Yang found out the whole story.
“Seven people have been chosen... Six people are resigned employees... One current employee of a managent agency... They arranged to talk to each other on the phone and undergo data surveillance to prevent any information from being leaked. They were specially sent to follow and remain on standby at close range...” Su Yang repeated the information that he had obtained and sighed. “The Wangs... They really cannot be underestimated. This operation of theirs is really foolproof...
“If you don’t have any special abilities,” Su Yang added silently.
After learning about this, Su Yang looked at Little Deeny. “Did they not trigger the [Eye Of Origins] when they talked about this?”
The [Eye Of Origins] could monitor anyone who ntioned Su Yang’s na.
Little Deeny shook his head. “No, Master.”
Su Yang frowned. ‘Sothing’s not right here.’
However, Little Deeny had her own guesses. “Master, there might be a possibility that our enemies have guessed the key word to trigger the [Eye Of Origins].”
Su Yang looked up at Little Deeny, waiting for her explanation.
Little Deeny had a pair of black glasses on her eyes, making her look like a teacher who was lecturing. She said seriously, “Actually, in the internet age, everyone’s privacy is constantly being invaded by large companies.”
“For example, we want to buy a phone... As long as we search for any kind of phone online once, and whatever app we open from then on, will have advertisents that are related to phones.
“This technology is called “Big Data”.”
“Later, because the search triggers were too primitive and outdated, the large companies started to try to find out what people needed from their lives and conversations.
“Initially, soone suggested recording the whole process and analyze the user from behind the scenes.
“However, this idea was quickly rejected. Because if the whole process was recorded, not only would the phone need a large storage space, but it would also need to be uploaded to the internet, and it would be easily discovered. In the 4G era, this kind of operation was almost impossible.”
“Therefore, after so research, the large companies pinpointed a thod to use the big data to “invade” people’s lives, through keywords.
“They will set up many keywords in advance according to people’s needs, such as cell phones, cars, teeth cleaning, houses, loans... And so on. As long as people say these keywords in their lives, they will trigger the keyword surveillance.”
“After monitoring the user triggering the keywords, the data will be uploaded, and various apps, software, and websites can be used to promote advertisents.”
Su Yang nodded in realization. He finally understood why he had unintentionally ntioned the word ‘doll’ not long ago. In the end, he was given many advertisents for ‘human trafficking’.
However, he still asked in confusion, “What does this have to do with my ability?”
Little Deeny said, “Master, if your [Eye Of Origins] wants to trigger the ability of [Descent], it is similar to [Big Data]. Both of them have to trigger the keywords, which is “Su Yang”.”
Su Yang recalled that it was indeed so on the system notification.
Little Deeny continued, “I’m guessing the other party thinks that since we have artificial intelligence, we might have similar large data surveillance abilities. Hence, as long as they say your na in front of a phone or so devices, they will trigger our surveillance systems.
“So they started to replace your na with so nicknas to avoid triggering the surveillance caras.
“For example, using words like “that person”, “Mr. Su”, and so on.
“Because there are too many people who can use this term, the number of possible keywords would be very vast. Even if there are surveillance caras, the effective information will be hidden in the sea of information. It can effectively prevent keywords from being monitored.”
Su Yang was speechless when he heard this.
‘So, my superpower has “accidentally” clashed with “technology”, causing the enemy to be on guard?
‘No wonder I couldn’t find out about the enemies I have recently encountered through the [Eye Of Origins].’
At that thought, Su Yang was silent for a mont. ‘I’ve got to find a way to solve this problem. Otherwise, I might have a huge problem!
‘This ti, I managed to discover the Wangs’s conspiracy because of Wang Dong’s report and my own quick-wittedness. Next ti... I might very well be caught off guard.
‘Such as... The sniper on the rooftop that day.’
