Chapter 75: The Rat at the Bottom
After walking for who knows how long, they walked out of the city and came to an area of low-rise buildings. The buildings were only seven or eight stories high, and the highest ones were only a few hundred stories. They were particularly conspicuous compared to the thousands of meters high buildings in the city.
The buildings here have expired and have become dilapidated buildings that are no longer inhabitable. Many of the buildings are covered with moss and vines.
The lifespan of a building was very reasonable in the past, but it has become very strange in this era. With the quality of ordinary buildings in this era, it is absolutely no problem to maintain stability for hundreds of years.
But that’s not incomprehensible. Buildings can be lived in for hundreds of years and passed down from generation to generation. How can real estate developers make money?
There are many such places.
The land ownership of the new federation was nine hundred and ninety-nine years old. Many real estate developers bought large amounts of land, but they did not develop it.
In this way, there will be fewer buildings, and housing prices will naturally rise. There is actually a lot of land on this planet, but the floors are getting higher and higher.
They found a dilapidated house, and Xia Lian once again manifested a teleportation gate. Mercury raised her hand, and the micronano particles flowed out of her hand, and then formed a square around the teleportation gate. The square used energy waves to link the teleportation
The door provides it with energy.
The portal lit up with blue light, and then, a white-haired girl flew out of the portal, it was Mithril.
"How is the principality going?" Xia Lian asked.
"I docked at Port of the Sun. Helios is now closed and no one can enter, but I heard that the Supreme Council has been formed and something seems to be happening inside." Mithril said.
Xia Lian raised his eyebrows and nodded, "It's not surprising."
Xia Lian looked at Sui Yin. Sui Yin's hair color was changing, and his appearance and clothes were also changing. Soon, he looked like Li Mo Li. Sui Yin was shorter than Mo Li, but at this moment, he had the same personality as her.
Average height.
She was going to complete the last mission of their trip. The fewer people who went on this kind of stealth mission, the better. If too many people went on it, it would be easier to be exposed.
"Go ahead, I'll wait for you here." Xia Lian said.
Mercury nodded and left here.
In an unknown dead end in this no-man's land, there is an iron gate.
No one would think that there is a huge secret institute hidden under this door.
She turned the micro nanometer into the key of the iron door, inserted it into the iron door and opened it. Behind the door was a spiral staircase, and she walked in slowly.
After Mercury left for a while, Xia Lian looked around and murmured softly.
"Mithril, do you feel that there is something strange around here?"
Mithril tilted his head and looked at Xia Lian with some confusion, "What?"
"Tramps." Xia Liandao, "This place should be a perfect place for homeless people to live. Why, there is no one there, and it's so quiet."
Mithril frowned, looked around, and remained silent...
....
With the access code given by Li Qiyin, it was almost easy for Mercury to get on the elevator heading underground.
As the elevator reaches the third floor, the elevator door slowly opens, and the scene in front of you is completely different from the gray waste on the ground. The hidden light tubes and pure white corridors are full of science fiction atmosphere.
The moment the elevator door opened, seven or eight researchers in white coats came forward.
One of them seemed to be familiar with Li Li, and even said hello to him after seeing Mercury's vest.
"Hey, Mo Li, how was your vacation?"
"It's okay. Diva No. 8 is very popular." Mercury said calmly.
"I'm so envious. I can go to the concert of Diva No. 8. Oh, by the way, it's time to get off work. Why are you going in?"
"I forgot something in the laboratory. Let's go in and get it."
"Oh, don't forget, you have to leave before five o'clock. The supervisor doesn't like people who stay here at this time."
A glimmer of light flashed in Mercury's eyes, and she nodded to him.
"It seems that there are some interesting things happening in this place." Xia Lian's voice sounded in Mercury's mind.
Mercury said nothing.
"However, this has nothing to do with us. It is now four-fifty on this planet. Leave there before five o'clock and don't cause any complications."
Mercury nodded, and then walked straight into the depths of the laboratory. Artificial intelligence cannot be used, so the work of preventing intrusions must often be left to humans.
There are professional patrols here 24 hours a day, and there are surveillance everywhere. People are keeping an eye on them 24 hours a day. The technological level of these surveillance is not low, and it also has functions such as thermal imaging and perspective, and even has some equipment.
The lower intelligence of human consciousness.
However, Mercury can be deceived by its camouflage skills.
If there is advanced artificial intelligence, it may be possible to identify flaws in Mercury by comparing the differences in details such as micro-expressions and demeanor.
But it is absolutely impossible for humans to recognize it, even if they are transformed people.
The only trouble is getting genetically tested, which can be used to determine whether a person is disguised as a modified person.
The distinction between a modified person and a modified person is through the identification code.
Fortunately, before Mercury came, he asked for some of Mo Li's blood and successfully deceived him.
Mo Li's laboratory is easy to find. Just go to the corner at the end of this long corridor, enter the password, and the laboratory door will open.
She walked to the computer. The micro-nanometers at her fingertips formed a wired connection interface, and massive data flow flowed into the brain along it.
"Is there any?" Xia Lian asked.
"Well, it will take about six minutes." Mercury replied.
Then, she continued to browse the inside of the computer, and suddenly, her eyebrows raised slightly.
"What's wrong?" Xia Lian continued to ask as if he noticed something strange about mercury.
"The computer system of this research base seems to be internally networked. I can connect to other systems through this computer and load more advanced deep data."
"how long it takes?"
"I'm trying to break the secret. Neural integration technology is simply unstoppable to machines without artificial intelligence.
Although their computer computing power is fast, the calculation logic and algorithm are very simple. Give me ten minutes and I can extract all the data."
"We only need the Coulomb force elimination field technology. Being too greedy will only cause complications. The security level here is not like level three secret, but more like level two or above."
"I can get out." Mercury said calmly.
Xia Lian fell silent and said no more words.
More than ten minutes passed almost in an instant. Mercury pulled out the micron and was about to turn around and leave. But then, the sound of footsteps at the end of the corridor made her pause. She took a step back and turned on the invisibility system.
.
At the end of the corridor, a middle-aged man with long white hair and a white coat was walking over from one end. He had heavy dark circles under his eyes.
At the other end, two men in black were dragging a homeless man who had been knocked unconscious.
"Director Haipu, we only found this one today."
The middle-aged man named Haipu frowned deeply, "There are sewer rats everywhere on the bottom floor. How did you catch one?"
"You have requested too much material recently." The man in black said awkwardly, "All the rats around here have been caught, and the other rats must have realized that someone was catching them, so they all hid.
They have lived at the bottom for decades and are more familiar with the terrain than we are."
Haipu scratched his head irritably, "That's it."
"Director, it only takes a few weeks to cultivate a batch of clones, why do you have to use these homeless people?" The man in black couldn't help but ask.
"What do you know?" Hai Pu said displeasedly, "Do you know what carries a person's consciousness?"
"brain?"
"It's memory!" Haipu said, "The basis of human consciousness activity is memory. Memory is the process of writing information to the human brain. The sensory organs are the "triggers" for humans to write information. Thinking is to emit biological electromagnetic waves, search for memories and correct them.
Memory, the process of directing people's actions.
In other words, without memory, the thinking is not even as good as a low-level artificial intelligence."
Haipu looked at the homeless man, or rather, looked at the homeless man's brain, and said excitedly.
"How can those clones with no memory compare to real people living in this world!?"
The man in black nodded.
Haipu snorted coldly, turned his head, and then noticed Mo Li's laboratory.
"Has the door of this laboratory been opened before?"
The man in black looked at the door and shook his head.
Haipu quickly walked into the laboratory, and then saw the red light in the corner of the computer.
That means that the laboratory data records have been downloaded in a short period of time.
He looked sharply at the man in black.
"Sound the alarm! Wake up the guardians!"
"yes!"
Haipu came back to his senses and looked at the red light, "Sneaking in here without noticing and easily breaking through the firewall to download data..."
He was not panicked or uneasy, he just grinned slowly, his eyebrows were wrinkled by the smile, and he looked slightly ferocious, with almost crazy excitement in his eyes.
"It looks like the rat that sneaked in is very interesting..."
