Clack! Clack! Clack! Clack!
Pat started to put the various hieroglyphics together on another page that he was writing on his laptop as he spoke up.
"AI. Wake up."
The voice of Patrick's AI echoed through the room.
[Hello Master Patrick. Good morning.]
"Not exactly a good morning at all, AI. I need you to do sothing for . The images on the screen belong to an unknown language. I want you to decipher the image's origin and attempt to translate."
[Yes, of course. Analyzing... analyzing... analyzing... Analysis failed. Language origin undetectable.]
Pat coughed and spoke up again.
"This ti, try to analyze the language and cross-reference it with the code that I'm writing. Segregate each symbol and cross-reference it to all known symbols and also search for cult-based symbols to see if there are any similarities."
[Yes, of course. Analyzing... analyzing... analyzing... Analysis complete. Partial matches found.]
Pat grinned and told the AI to display the result. The resulting image pulled up by the AI was from a very old picture that it had found on the internet. The picture was of an abandoned house with writing on the wall, and from the caption, Pat figured that the house had been used as a eting place for a cult up until the early 2000s. Pat imdiately tried to zoom out on the image, but he was not able to. Pat frowned and told the AI to zoom out.
[Image is at its smallest resolution.]
"Then tell the location of the house."
[Location unknown.]
"You fucking piece of shit."
Pat cursed in anger once he heard the AI say this, and he turned to the image once again to get a better look at it. The house was old, and so was the image. If Pat had to guess, then he would say that it was taken soti in the late nineteen-hundreds. The surroundings didn't really help Pat in figuring out anything about location since the picture was so limited. But as Pat zood into the image, he was able to see that there was a blurry image on one of the windows in the picture. Pat spoke up.
"AI, clean up this image and reformat it. Keep the file size under one million pixles."
[Certainly, sir.]
Pat didn't want to increase the pixel size too much since he knew that the image was old. If he increased the pixel size more than what was possible, he might whitewash the image, so it was better to keep things small. The system carried out the reformation and pixelation quickly, and Pat waited while still writing code on his other laptop. Pat was working on trying to rewrite AI's code so that she would have a wider range of sources to pull from when analyzing the hieroglyphics next ti.
[Reformation complete.]
Pat finally looked back at the screen when AI called out to tell him that she was done, and once Pat saw what was in that blurry image, he grinned. It was an old building almost identical in shape and build to the first one, but there was sothing on the building that gave Pat a lead he didn't have before. At the top of the building was the na [Temple of Righteousness.]
It's a church.
Pat imdiately dove into the web and started to look for the location of this church. The architecture was English, so Pat limited his search to the region around Europe. The tiline dated all the way back to the nineteen-hundreds, so Pat was going backward in ti rather than looking for the building in the current ti. Pat didn't want to find the building because he thought that the syndicate would be there. From the look of things, the building had been abandoned for a long ti.
But the hieroglyphics on the walls of the building were still important, and Pat needed to make sure the syndicate was really there once upon a ti before he could try using the hieroglyphics to decipher what was written in the pictures on the notes.
With the na of the building and its tiline known, it didn't take too long for Pat to find where the building was. It was in a deserted part of Europe that was marked as private property. The area was surrounded by trees and vegetation that showed that it had been ages since anyone was there, but the building was still standing, and Pat imdiately started to cross-reference through the list of latitudes that he had gotten from Genshi's notes.
[Analyzing... Analyzing... Match found.]
Pat felt a grin appearing on his face as one of the locations on the note matched the location of the building in the forest! He was now certain that this place belonged to the syndicate a long ti ago! Now that Pat was sure about the location, he knew that he could go ahead and use the hieroglyphics to figure out what was written in the pieces!
Pat started to cross-analyze the hieroglyphics as quickly as possible! The situation in the world was already getting really bad, and he knew that if he didn't finish this off soon, then the consequences would be dire! He needed to find out if the syndicate were really planning and where they were before the syndicate wiped out the rest of Russia!
…
The Superhuman Alliance building in Japan was in absolute chaos! The building was packed with reporters and investigators who were trying to get a word or an interview with Genshi, and the other superhuman agents in the building were trying their best to keep the reporters back!
The recent state of things in Russia had swept a storm across the entire world, and it wasn't only Japan that was trying to get answers from the Superhuman Alliance! Every single country in the world was currently on red alert as they tried to get answers from the Superhuman Alliance directors!
The directors were seen as the link between all of the Superhuman Alliances, and they had said many tis before that their job was to make sure that every country was well protected and taken care of, so it was obvious that the people would start going to them now that there was an issue!
Inside the Japanese Superhuman Alliance, Genshi was trying to figure out for himself what the hell had happened! Genshi hadn't had any form of direct contact into Russia since the news of the attack ca. The internet and cable in Russia had all been disconnected, and the only way for them to get into the country was with satellite phones that didn't rely on the general connection network.
Genshi was using the satellite phone to call one of his associates in the country, but he was getting frustrated as the man didn't answer. Was the situation so bad that they couldn't even pick up the fucking phone?
Beside him, Henry Ford was also communicating on the phone, but he was talking to soone in Arica and asking about the state of things in the country and how they were handling any issues that might've popped up there. There hadn't been an anima appearance yet in Arica, but Henry Ford knew that with the state of things now, there was a high chance that a swarm might start moving toward the country.
