Chapter 858: Chapter 103 Shooter’s Experience
A few days ago.
The Shooter, following the pre-arranged coordinates, took the path along the seabed to Southeast Asia. On the way, he unexpectedly encountered soone moving alone.
The mories encapsulated in his database told him that this could very well be Yang ngying—Lin Yu’s daughter, Chen Feng’s granddaughter. The Shooter Xiang Shan imdiately followed, intending to find out the truth. Initially, he did not plan to show himself; he just wanted to track and understand the situation. After all, with the precedent of Kanhara Kotoba, two hundred years had passed, and no one could guarantee the current state of those forr heroes.
However, that full-reflection coating was still too unsuitable for hiding.
Yang ngying discovered the cybernetically enhanced person nearby. She first warned Xiang Shan not to approach, stating she was currently engaged in sothing dangerous, and then after a few seconds, she feigned surprise, recognizing the prosthetic body.
Given the situation, Xiang Shan had no choice but to ask what she was doing.
Yang ngying was evasive about this topic.
Perhaps it was this attitude that slightly dispelled Xiang Shan’s suspicions.
The Shooter did not leave imdiately, but stayed to chat briefly with Yang ngying.
During this process, a group of experts equipped with underwater-specific prosthetic bodies had already encircled Xiang Shan.
Upon realizing this, Xiang Shan imdiately chose to distance himself from Yang ngying. But soon, he discovered that the mysterious enemies’ target seed to be Yang ngying. Although suspecting it could be a ruse of inflicting self-injury, the Shooter still chose to help Yang ngying.
Thus, he was ambushed by Yang ngying from behind.
After that, a terrifyingly strong external practitioner suppressed him from behind. Following this, Kanhara Kotoba used internal martial arts on his AI.
Afterwards, several of his processes were forcibly halted.
However, back at Paradox City, when Sin of Beta reconstructed the Twelve Zodiacs’ AI, they had also conveniently encapsulated several of his latest viruses into the Shooter. Once connected to the Shooter’s system, these viruses would upload to the invader’s body, hindering chip operation and even causing damage.
This preparation prevented Kanhara Kotoba from reading the Shooter Xiang Shan’s data.
It seed like they were very interested in his data, as they did not destroy the prosthetic body outright.
It should be said that his reboot speed was unexpectedly fast, preventing the opponent from disassembling the body in ti. And with torpedoes, they were reluctant to lose the data.
Hence, the Shooter was suspended beneath the submarine, directly facing a torpedo launch port.
The Shooter would not be able to evade the torpedo while destroying the chains.
At this mont, the Shooter still had the capability to destroy the submarine. His arm’s propulsion system provided powerful thrust under vacuum conditions. If the reactor was fully operational, these nozzles could release terrifying power. In the viscous seawater, this power would be absorbed and concentrated by the water.
High temperatures would create a massive bubble, akin to a torpedo explosion.
A chanism moving at high speed in a vacuum certainly couldn’t withstand such an impact. The Shooter would undoubtedly be torn to pieces, but the submarine above would not be spared either.
However, the Shooter Xiang Shan had not yet done so. He was unsure whether these enemies called the “Six Dragons Sect” had only one submarine. If he made that choice, it would be unwise to trade a top-tier chanism for a relatively inexpensive submarine, as it would not contribute much to the situation.
The Shooter calculated based on the submarine’s course, speed, and his prior plan. He believed that before Kanhara Kotoba completely decrypted his system, his main body might encounter these guys.
If the submarine also participated in the siege on the main body…
At that ti, using this Heaven and Earth Longevity forbidden technique might just turn the tide.
—It seems like now…
The Shooter scanned towards the distant battle site.
The light from the submarine illuminated a martial artist.
It was Xiang Shan’s main body, the real Xiang Shan.
“Let’s see the situation more…” the Shooter contemplated.
He actually couldn’t stay too long. Kanhara Kotoba could decipher the backup stored in his system at any mont and obtain the data that the Six Dragons Sect desired. Regardless of the data’s nature or purpose, the Shooter was determined not to let them succeed.
The Shooter watched as the main body angrily wielded a blade, forcing several attacking Six Dragons Sect martial artists to retreat.
—It’s not the ti yet…
At that mont, a spear squid approached silently, its skin expanding and contracting with pignt cells, painting a series of black-and-white QR codes.
This had been happening for several days. The Shooter realized that these spear squids seed to possess intelligence and had a deep connection with the Six Dragons Sect.
Indeed, he rembered seeing a few squids on the way here.
At that ti, he felt joy that “the ocean still harbored such large wild animals.”
Now, he understood how he had been located.
Given the era, QR codes were generally unfriendly, so Xiang Shan initially severed his visual receptors while only leaving the sonar system active.
Admittedly, internal arts were techniques developed for the human brain. However, this did not an internal experts had to personally execute Gu skills. They could leave QR codes inconspicuously in various places. If a well-trained squid morized nurous malicious backdoor command QR codes and reproduced them with its skin, it could also ensnare martial artists.
This process repeated many tis. The Shooter gradually observed that this squid seed to avoid the sight of the Six Dragons Sect. It appeared often when other squids shielded it from the submarine’s caras.
And when Six Dragons Sect mbers approached, the squid would swiftly retreat.
This could still be a form of acting, a well-orchestrated plot — much like how Yang ngying previously eased his vigilance.
The enemy could certainly employ the sa trick twice.
But… it wasn’t necessarily essential.
He was rely an AI, incapable of self-updating his system. Kanhara Kotoba would be able to break into his system, given enough ti. The Shooter could estimate when the main body would arrive, but the Six Dragons Sect might not be able to. They might not be in such a hurry.
However, if they were indeed in a rush to crack the system before encountering the main body… it would make sense.
After weighing the gains and risks, the Shooter made his decision.
When encountering the main body and during Kanhara Kotoba’s battle with the main body, he would then read the QR code from the spear squid and communicate with these mysterious squids.
If the main body failed to gain the upper hand, he would inevitably resort to mutual destruction asures here. At that mont, Kanhara Kotoba wouldn’t have the attention to hack into him.
At this ti, the “communication” risk was still acceptable.
He was determined to see what these squids were plotting.
