Chapter 1108: Chapter 117
At this mont, Tao Enhai is undergoing rehabilitation treatnt. He is currently attempting to regain specific emotions and motivation.
The most direct thod is to watch the artistic works he loved in the past, then, based on his mories, strive to imrse himself in the emotions he believes he should be experiencing, and gradually stabilize them. During this process, he also attempts to establish a “virtual circuit,” using artificial sensors to replace the missing parts, simulating the activation of one area triggering another.
This is a frontier dical technology that has only erged in recent decades and is said to have entanglents with the Eighth Martial God. And Yawgmoth used this to deceive the Ninth Martial God. Since then, the Hospital Knight Order, Araya Holy Knight Order, and other traditional teams have made new developnts based on this.
A few years ago, a Hero hidden on Mars stole this information and handed it to Tao Enhai. Tao Enhai originally intended to upload it at a network node in the Jupiter Domain. Jupiter’s satellite is an important network hub in the Solar System. Here, Internal Martial Artists can accomplish more.
But unfortunately, Tao Enhai’s identity was exposed in the Asteroid Belt, and he finally collided with the King of Godspeed, ending up in this predicant.
Haya has no intention of killing Tao Enhai, not even “combat intent.” Tao Enhai believes this.
Weaponized Evolu cells can be induced to undergo apoptosis or reversal using targeted drugs. However, there is simply no possibility on the Hero’s side to study targeted drugs. What ligands should be used, what drugs should be modified, to precisely trigger a specific small segnt of genes within the Evolu cells?
Even when facing naturally evolved cells, each step requires resources and ti.
Moreover, this is a designed product. There must be “misguiding” receptors on the cell surface, and the target gene fragnt may be confused or encrypted. This greatly increases the difficulty.
And Tao Enhai has neither the resources nor the ti.
Perhaps, in Haya’s view, this is the strategy that can stably capture Tao Enhai alive. He can easily defeat Tao Enhai, but cannot guarantee he can capture him alive. As long as Tao Enhai’s disease progresses to a certain extent, he won’t be able to complete suicide before being captured. And as long as Tao Enhai is captured alive, reversal drugs can even be produced nearby.
King of Godspeed Haya Veight is soone completely incomprehensible. This is what Tao Enhai thinks.
Xiang Shan and Yawgmoth are both crazy, the only difference being Xiang Shan is a patient who can live independently and be observed at ho, while Yawgmoth is best sent to a ntal hospital. The logic of these two is at least understandable.
But the King of Godspeed is a person whose thoughts are completely unreadable. Over the years, he hardly expresses any opinions, nor does he actively fight, but it is said that as long as orders are given, he will execute them ticulously.
Tao Enhai even maliciously speculated whether this guy has returned to a childhood state, a war machine lacking the ability to think.
—Ah, what emotions should accompany this kind of thinking? Mockery? Release? Or… sadness?
While guiding himself, Tao Enhai forces himself to focus on old movies from the late 20th century. These movies were introduced to the East Asian mainland in the early 21st century and are among his precious childhood mories.
Fortunately, Niyaguti entered the secret room, transferring Tao Enhai’s attention once again, allowing him to escape this strange solitary mode.
“What’s wrong?”
Niyaguti said, “My undercover agents in the Scientific Knight Order have just sent out intelligence.”
Over these years, Niyaguti’s activities have also yielded certain results. She has cultivated several undercover agents in the Life Furnace Knights Order.
Although she has long been away from the frontline of research and only briefly held a teaching position in the 21st century, Niyaguti indeed possesses excellent scientific and project managent capabilities, able to lead a small team in research activities at her age.
In this respect, David is similar. Of course, they left no records in history concerning this aspect simply because soone better at project managent had successfully completed the work.
Niyaguti can help an individual rise faster within the Order of Knights.
However, Niyaguti’s activities in this area have not been long, and due to an invisible secret organization within the Life Furnace Knights Order, her cultivated roles have not reached very high positions.
Now, Niyaguti has secretly controlled an entire team. They are currently researching specific polyrases for a more senior ntor. This small team is united as a strong front, imperable to external influence, and can coordinate limited activities with Niyaguti outside. Additionally, there are so covert lines whose identities are unknown.
However, none of these people are aware of Xiang Shan’s infiltration.
Although Niyaguti trusts her covert lines, the “Martial God” matter is of such great importance. Moreover, even if an undercover is trustworthy, it doesn’t an they are absolutely safe. In case an undercover’s identity is exposed and controlled, it’s sotis better for them to know less.
Niyaguti rely lets these undercover agents collect intelligence as usual.
Xiang Shan’s infiltration this ti is based on the concept of “adapting to circumstances.” Xiang Shan believes that Niyaguti’s cultivated undercover agents are not yet sufficient to aid his operations. To reduce variables, his actions are naturally kept secret from all undercover agents.
Niyaguti hopes to find clues in the regularly reported intelligence.
Niyaguti shares the information with Tao Enhai and asks, “What do you think?”
“How should I put it… It’s hard to imagine,” Tao Enhai said, “And perhaps the new Martial God is among these few people…”
Niyaguti said, “Actually, I’m here handling this intel because of Xiang Shan’s instructions. He said, if you encounter difficulties while analyzing the intel, find a computer that can’t connect to the internet and plug this in.”
She flipped her hand to take out a USB-like storage device and plugged it into a computer interface.
Tao Enhai thought for a mont, feeling that his emotions would best be described as “utterly speechless” or sothing similar. He said, “A brilliant piece of advice? What the heck? Isn’t the more complex sothing is, the harder it is to predict? And isn’t the more intricate a plan, the more likely it is to fail? His plan posts never exceed fifty words at most, and all complex content is tailored around creating personas for himself… Xiang Shan wouldn’t make such a basic mistake.”
“Ah, thank you for the complints.”
A line of text suddenly appeared on the monitor.
Tao Enhai was startled, “Wait, this is… you… Xiang Shan? Is this a… encrypted link?”
“Pseudo-personality mask?” Niyaguti guessed, “Specifically requested ‘no internet connection’… and the storage is read-only. Afraid of viruses? Internal Martial Artist tampering?”
Tao Enhai said, “You actually… export a pseudo-personality mask from your own consciousness on the spot?”
“Absolutely,” the monitor continued to display text, “Ta-da! Surprise!”
Niyaguti paused for a mont, “Just such a monitor, it’s impressive for you to use such… expressive ans.”
“Then why don’t you connect an external device that can play audio signals.”
Niyaguti connected the speakers. Xiang Shan’s personality mask then said, “So, this ti…”
“Wait a minute, did you directly insert a copy of yourself into the USB? And you…” Tao Enhai was totally confused. He said, “What are you doing exactly? Xiang Shan… you…”
“Part of what constitutes the Twelfth Martial God is AI, souls residing within electronic components,” the new Xiang Shan said, “And I rely copied this part a bit and put it into this primitive frawork. Don’t feel like I’m Xiang Shan or anything, or else this computer will beco the weakest Martial God.”
The USB is in read-only mode, with part of the files prohibited from copying, so as long as the storage is removed, this primitive personality mask will cease to function, leaving no record. However, in response, there will be a specially encoded mory left in the computer, waiting for the undercover Martial God Xiang Shan to return and retrieve.
“This version of , though not strong in thinking ability, is highly sensitive in identifying ‘Who is Xiang Shan.’ You can also consider this AI as the ‘Xiang Shan Discrimination AI’ developed through deep learning of Xiang Shan’s mories,” Xiang Shan said, “There’s no need to get caught up in pointless things, you know.”
“Alright… indeed, now… it seems…” Niyaguti rubbed her forehead with one hand, “Just quite convenient, isn’t it.”
While exporting mories and generating a multifunctional AI from training sets is cutting-edge technology, it is indeed tracable. Among current Internal Martial Artists, so can achieve this.
Achieving sothing to Xiang Shan’s degree…
That’s truly rare.
Niyaguti shared the intel with Xiang Shan, “Take a look then… which of these Scientific Knights do you think is most likely to be Xiang Shan? They all appeared in the Life Furnace Knights Order days before and after the undercover mission started.”
AI Xiang Shan quickly browsed and pondered briefly. The computer instantly emitted an unbearable buzzing noise. Xiang Shan said, “Without a doubt, it should be this Knight Frey.”
“Why?”
“Xiang Shan’s intuition.”
Niyaguti almost rolled her eyes, “An AI using an old computer still playing around with mysticism.” She opened another docunt file. It was a scene of Knight Frey playing and singing with a tal guitar in a stairwell. The blue sky and few white clouds outside the floor-to-ceiling window further accentuated the narrowness of the stairwell. And in the cramped stairwell, more than a dozen Scientific Knights gathered together, listening to Knight Frey’s song.
“Tsk tsk… hard to imagine.”
“Huh?”
“Hard to imagine. Xiang Shan would actually…”
The computer’s fault indicator light flashed in fury, “What does that an? Are you going to disdain my musical taste too?”
Niyaguti almost burst into laughter, “No, it’s just very hard to imagine Xiang Shan specially allocating energy to do such things in such circumstances.”
“Firstly, promotion is important in itself,” the computer humd, “Secondly, enclosed spaces can use echoes for modeling, and stairwells are the perfect environnt for Mystic Tortoise True Gang to perform.”
