Aizu Castle is divided into three areas: Huicheng District, Highland 26 and Katagi District.
Xu Yang set out from Huicheng District, where he lived, to a ramen shop called Jingquanwu on Highland 26, preparing to meet the other party.
One hundred million, I really dare to say that.
But even if it was just bragging, or even if it only gave me a few hundred thousand after a lot of exploitation, I would accept it.
People who leave the company have to bear the responsibility for their own profits and losses, not to mention that I can't make ends meet now.
Freedom comes at a price.
Xu Yang wore sunglasses and a mask, put his hands in his pockets, and walked quietly through the streets. There were few pedestrians around, and a large shuttle flew over the public waterway above his head. Aizu is an underground city, and the sky above is not the sky, but a large sky projector.
The cold screen pretends to be an empty blue sky.
After glancing at the sign of the ramen shop, Xu Yang walked in.
Isenya Ramen is an independent brand with 10 branches in Aizu City, which is small in scale.
This store also uses common network technology, and all devices are connected to the same network.
The civilian key is very simple. It is only level 5 and has no security program embedded. It was easily hacked by Xu Yang.
Xu Yang looked at the list. There were four cameras in the store, two security alarms, four electric stoves, an automatic noodle cooking robot, a time card, twenty-six smart dining tables, two floating service robots, and high-definition wall-mounted TVs.
…
Their information and status are clear in Xu Yang's digital mind.
There are not many guests in Jingquan House, so it is a very quiet place. The lights are bright and yellow, spreading around, making it feel warm, like a spring scene. The dining tables are separated by classical screens, on which are painted birds and dogs. The pictures are hazy and the materials are difficult to understand.
distinguish.
A heterogeneous fighting show was playing on the TV, and two winged monsters were fighting fiercely. They were created by biotechnology and transformed from giant lizards. They were shaped like flying dragons and restored the weird existence of the witch era. Their bodies were filled with armor and implants.
, roars and screams are all synthesized by electronics.
If one party is not careful, the throat will be bitten immediately. The metal scales will peel off, the mechanical parts will be damaged, arc sparks will appear and sizzle, blood and fuel will spurt out from the wound, and the ground will burst into flames, and the whole place will boil, just like a dragon setting off a prairie fire.
.
"Welcome!" A floating robot quickly rose from behind the counter and came to serve Xu Yang.
Xu Yang's eyes shifted from the TV to the robot. On the screen was a cute cartoon smiley face, which brought his thoughts from the illusory ancient times back to reality.
"Take me to table 40." Xu Yang said the agreed place.
"Please come with me!"
Xu Yang passed by several geisha robots. They were lying on the sofa, their faces painted white, and their makeup was applied to the metal skin. There was a huge glass fish tank on the table in the middle. Countless bubbles were sprayed out from the ventilation pipe underneath, and some 3D projected landscape fish
While swimming slowly among them, one of them had a bug, and the place where the fish's head should be was turned into a string of garbled characters.
Table No. 40 is a booth with two rows of cotton sofas and translucent silk curtains. Two red lanterns with the word "Ling" written on them hang high, and a pleasant fragrance fills the air.
Xu Yang opened the door curtain and within a few seconds of taking his seat, he heard heavy footsteps.
Turning his head, he saw a burly black man walking towards him. He wore sunglasses, thick lips, a bunch of gold rings on his ears, a military vest, camouflage pants, high-top studded leather shoes, and a belt hanging from his waist.
On the holster. In these days, with the lack of social security and regulations, shootings may break out on the streets at any time, so dressing up like this is not unusual.
"Hey." He sat across from Xu Yang, leaned forward, took off his sunglasses, smiled, and stretched out his hand to Xu Yang freely.
"The number you reported," Xu Yang said, "is it true or false?"
"Let's eat, what do you like?" The black man opened the ordering screen on the smart desktop and randomly selected a few dishes.
"I don't pick."
The black man poked around a few times and chose fried chicken, ramen, rice balls and rice cakes.
"You look very relaxed." Xu Yang said.
"I don't know if it's a flighty impostor," the black man said, "or a real neurohacker."
Xu Yang pulled out the cable from his wrist and plugged it into the interface on the side of the table.
This was originally intended to provide charging services to some customers, but is now used by Xu Yang for data transmission. It is more convenient to control when connected, and remote control is more laborious.
As soon as the black man clicked on the payment interface, he found that the price changed rapidly. The settlement price changed from 260 at the beginning to 250,000, then to an even larger astronomical figure, and finally to 0.
"Good guy." The black man had to admire, "It only takes one second?"
"Tenth of a second."
Xu Yang turned to look at the TV in the distance, and the black man's eyes also moved over. Under Xu Yang's control, the channels on it switched rapidly, from ring fighting to weather forecast, to fashionable animation and company news.
Immediately afterwards, Xu Yang called up the backstage of the entire ramen shop on TV, which contained daily records, purchase catalogs and sanitary conditions, allowing everyone to understand the actual services of the shop.
Customers in the store noticed this change and pointed at the screen.
"What? The meat is not synthetic? I don't want it anymore!"
“What does it mean that 3,353 copies of customer facial data were sold this month?”
"A bowl of noodles earns me 150? How is your mother?"
Complaints sounded from time to time.
Xu Yang then controlled the three geisha robots that had entered resting mode and put them into service mode. They respectfully took tea and fans and walked into their cubicles, kneeling on the ground to serve them.
"You are the god of this neighborhood." The black man nodded in approval, "What other device can escape your control? This technology is called digital mind, and only a few giant companies have successfully developed it."
God? Xu Yang does feel different. Although this power is powerful, when he uses it in the company, he always feels that it does not really belong to him.
Xu Yang shook his head, quit the Geisha robot, restored the menu prices to the original, changed the TV to the original channel, and deleted all operation records to avoid being traced later. However, most stores are unmanned and it will take a long time for someone to come to deal with it.
.
Knocking on the table, Xu Yang restored everything to the original state.
After the initial confusion, diners quickly turned their attention elsewhere.
The black man put a box in front of Xu Yang.
"Open it."
Glancing at it, he saw that it was a micro safe belonging to a small security company. Xu Yang pulled out the wiring and connected it to the safe. The firewall was in vain in front of the special cracking algorithm of his digital mind. There were also three built-in viruses inside. Xu Yang
It takes less than half a second to clean them up, avoiding the risk of spontaneous combustion.
The safe disintegrated itself, leaving it empty.
The black man's expression turned from relaxed at the beginning to seriousness, and he took out another rectangular box.
"Now I want to see your ability to crack this company's advanced products..."
"enough."
"Um?"
"It is no exaggeration to say that I am the best neural hacker you can meet." Xu Yang disdained the test, "Give me a problem and I will solve it. Give me 100 million and we will settle the bill."
"Oh." The black man put the things away.
"It also includes an advance deposit. Ten million won't be too much for me."
"Ten million?" the black man smiled, "please take a look at the details of the commission first."
The sound of jet propulsion of the intelligent service robot comes from far and near, interrupting the conversation. It brings food.
A bowl of steaming hot and fragrant tonkotsu ramen was placed in front of Xu Yang, with barbecued pork, fried eggs, peas and seaweed strips lying on top of the tonkotsu broth and ramen.
Xu Yang didn't move his chopsticks. At this moment, he missed the company's nutritional creams, which didn't have such complex aromas.
"My name is Mateo." the black man said, "I will send you some information wirelessly, please open the interface."
Xu Yang looked inside his own built-in information platform and got the information to connect with Mateo. As soon as he passed it, the other party transmitted eight documents, most of which were news newspapers and periodicals, and the others were information from a mining company.
While eating ramen, he quickly browsed the contents of the document.
"Large-scale excavation work outside Aizu City has stalled." Xu Yang whispered, "Residents were injured and missing. Strange lights appeared at night. Bronze Titan Excavation Company..."
"This company is a subsidiary of Near East Tianci."
"Near Eastern godsend... energy giant company."
"They are so rich that they are digging everywhere. Even here, in the unlimited territory of Kyoto, they have reached out to interfere."
"There's no spice or oil here."
"Of course not, but they're not here for that kind of thing."
"Then why are they..."
Mateo bit the fried chicken into pieces, swallowed it, drank a large cup of hot tea, leaned back, and said two words in relief: "Witch."
"What?"
"They dug and dug, and they found an ancient witch." Mateo said, "Buried deep in the Aizu Underground City, the living body of the ancient witch."
Xu Yang went back and browsed through the reports and information about the mining company.
It was mentioned that the excavation work started very smoothly. Although no fossil energy was found, many ancient treasures and funerary objects were unearthed, which seemed to be related to the ancient Witch Council.
Immediately afterwards, the excavation work was suddenly interrupted.
This was two weeks ago.
"They didn't dig down..."
"Issuing the sphere of influence, Kyoto does not want the God-given people of the Near East to poach the infinitely valuable ancient species from their territory. The confrontation is too fierce and no one will let anyone go. The ancient witches...the witches of that era were not bitches like these modern ones.
Slaves and killing weapons are comparable, and they were worshiped as gods in ancient times."
"That's our goal." Xu Yang felt excited in his heart.
Witches are a strategic resource in this era, more deterrent than nuclear weapons.
The most powerful among them can not only directly resist or absorb the power of nuclear weapons, but can even "change" the launch of nuclear weapons itself. In other words, they have the energy to operate the law of cause and effect.
The value of an extremely rare ancient living witch is definitely more than a large company itself.
"Just rely on us?" Xu Yang reacted.
"Kyoto Unlimited submitted an application to the Company Alliance. While you were eating noodles, the Company Alliance was already reviewing her status. There is a small window during this period, and there are about 12 hours left."
"I mean, just 'us'?"
"Don't worry," Mateo chuckled, "There is also a 'company' behind me. What I need is efficiency and ability. Who would have thought that we can find a master with a digital mind in Aizu City, which is just around the corner. Save
money to buy a combat robot."
It turns out that it is a third-party large company or giant enterprise that has taken a fancy to the Witch's resources. Xu Yang silently analyzed it. It is undoubtedly extremely dangerous to be involved in this matter, but missing the opportunity in front of you is even more worrying.
"If the money problem is solved, I will be in place." Xu Yang said.
"I'll give you a sum now." Mateo pushed a bearer cash card across the table.
Xu Yang picked up the cash card and turned on the digital display. The upper right corner showed 10,000,000, which was a total of 10 million funds.
Got 10 million!
Don't be too excited. If what you predict is true, there will be another 90 million waiting for you.
"How can I ensure that you won't silence me?" Xu Yang said.
"How is that possible?" Mateo said, "We need you. We need you to crack the external facilities of the excavation site. You are indispensable to solve the hidden traps inside. When we escape, we need you to clean up the traces and hack into a few computers.
Drone. Instead of saying we want to kill you, we have to worry about when you will report us to Kyoto Infinity."
"Then you can trust me, right?"
"Hey." The black man shook his head, "I definitely believe it."
"how?"
"You're short of money, brother."
It came to my mind and I fought hard.
Moreover, I looked unfamiliar with the industry, so he probably guessed that I had just escaped from a big company and would not go back to cooperate with them. I really can't show my face now, and if I am discovered, my brain will definitely be poached.
At any time, what the company needs is one person's labor, not one's personal pursuit, values and ideals. These things that cannot be realized in the company, I have to find outside the company.
"Let's go." Xu Yang said, "When will we take action?"
"Don't forget we only have 12 hours, I would say now."
