A few days ago, when the turmoil began, the exchanges between Helen Star and the "Ring World" had already been suspended.

But Sean knew from the relevant notices on the intranet of the police system.

In this incident, the situation happened to be adjusted one by one when the airport explosion was in the first place. "Helen Star" fell into a full-scale riot, but the "ring world" was relatively controllable.

Because only if the mental index is qualified, they will be allowed to enter the "ring world", and there are naturally no mental hospitals here; serious violent crimes will not be allowed to be locked on spacecraft, and there will naturally be no heavy prisons.

It is perfectly avoided by the "wild beasts" and "heavy criminals" with great destruction.

But when Sean launched a single charge against the "Ring World".

But it was not beyond his expectations that in the "circular world" that is a safe haven compared to "Helen Star", the confrontation between "engineer" and "puppet master" had already begun.

The calm that was originally maintained here was completely broken.

However, the form of the two clashes is somewhat different from what Sean imagines.

.........

Inside the ring world.

Richards is a regular attendant working at a shuttle connection point.

But when I was at work this morning and just changed my work clothes and came out of the locker room, I was frightened to find that all the workers in the team who were supposed to be gathering in the lounge waiting for me were gone.

Instead, there are a group of monsters with hideous and terrifying faces, with fangs, sharp claws, tentacles, and bloody mouths.

He let out a roar of unknown significance, as if he had to choose someone at any time to eat it.

After Richards was almost scared at the beginning, facing the monster surrounded by no means giving him a way out, he had to resist.

Take out your No. 22 wrench from your hand-in-hand tool kit, hold it high and hit it hard on the monster in front.

"kill..."

Bang!

The ferocious monster instantly splattered his brain and fell to the ground to death.

Maybe I didn't expect this monster to be so careless and was knocked to the ground with just a wrench.

After being stunned, Richards became more courageous and rushed up like other "monsters".

"I don't want to die, you monsters will die for me!"

“…”

However, in the eyes of others.

But it was clear that Richards, who had just started working, suddenly became fierce and cruelly killed his colleague who was about to come forward to say hello to him.

at the same time.

Citizens living in the "circular world" clearly do not have the symptoms of "beast-like paranoia" and still maintain their rationality, but they hold various weapons in their hands and start to chop and kill in the city.

Moreover, seeing their expressions of fighting fear and pretending to be fierce on their faces, they clearly believe that they are not killing each other, but some kind of monster.

The most terrifying thing is that this situation does not distinguish between humans and NPCs at all!

Fear spreads rapidly like a plague.

In the most important scientific research division of the "Ring World", there are dozens of [Mechanical Sheriffs] in the core main computer room.

Servers that look like hexagonal basalt columns form the main body of the computer room.

Located in the circular command room of the lever structure, hundreds of technicians wearing uniforms are fighting forward with their own equipment.

suddenly.

A technician suddenly stood up and shouted loudly to the computer room supervisor standing in the middle of the command room, and the chief engineer of the "Ring World" information system:

"Report! The second firewall was broken, and there were a total of 52 'virtual addresses' controls changed hands.

Millions of smart devices have lost control, and the affected population has reached 120,000, most of them are low-end users with weak passwords.”

The ‘virtual address’ is equivalent to the door number of each user. Only with this unique address can the computer not send the information incorrectly.

The total number of Class A virtual addresses is only 126, and the entire Garden of Eden is mainly Class B addresses.

A Class B virtual address consists of a 2-byte network address and a 2-byte host address. The highest bit of the network address must be 10, and the address range is 128.1.0.1~191.255.255.254.

There are 16,382 available Class B virtual addresses on the entire "Helen Star", and each network can accommodate 65,534 host addresses.

And in the virtual host of the "Ring World".

With a total of 534 Class B virtual addresses, a virtual network was built to meet the use of implantable [personal terminals] and various electronic devices for 3.5 million people.

This is also the main position of virtual offensive and defensive warfare.

"Suspend the entire 'ring world' network service and mobilize all the 'broken chickens' we have to launch a counterattack!"

The computer room supervisor is a burly middle-aged man with black-framed glasses.

As a high-end technician, he was naturally an NPC, and he played the role of world secondary manager when Alpha was sleeping.

But his core has long since become the shape of an "engineer".

The enemy that the "engineer" is now fighting with all its might is naturally the "puppet master" who controls the alpha [source code].

In this virtual world, [source code] almost represents the highest administrator privileges, and invading the computer system of the "ring world" is really a piece of cake.

Moreover, this time is different from the small fights of the "Airport Blast", but the "puppet master" will break the desperate bet of [Eden] even if he destroys the world.

Natural firepower is fully opened.

With the power of [Mind Ring] and [Source Code].

He not only created a [chain virus] that was prepared to attack the entire virtual world, but also created a [soul borer virus] that could invade all [personal terminals].

Even though the effect is far from comparable to the "psychic ability" he exerts, it can dominate the five senses of human beings through hardware devices connected with human nerves!

After being infected by the [Soul Terrier Virus], what they see, hear, smell... are all the viruses want them to perceive.

In their eyes, other normal humans naturally turned into terrifying monsters, and there was no flaw at all.

The "broken chicken" mentioned by the engineer was then transferred to the resistance front.

"Brochet" is a variety of computers, enterprises, governments, schools, and even [personal terminals] that have been hacked and implanted in Trojans by [hackers].

Compared with the equipment in the main computer room, it is the difference between a militia and a regular army.

The engineers' team is obviously the maintainer of the system, but when facing the intruder of the "puppet master", they use hackers' fighting style.

Even this reserve force has been piled up, and it can be imagined how passive they are now.

But the "engineer" didn't think he would lose, and his eyes were lowered and he muttered to himself:

“I was so naive when I was young.

He actually believed what this guy said, for the sake of human safety, he had to set a permission lock for Alpha, and even gave up the [source code].

However, it’s not too late now. Now I will end the mistakes I made ten years ago with my own hands."
