Chapter 1795: Silicon-Based Intelligent Logic Programming
Xiang Zhi's face turned pale with fear. A freeze of this level—even if she reached Dao Heaven, she wouldn't be able to resist it, right?
Bai Kou said indifferently: (❅・᷅~・᷄) "This woman is a traitor. Might as well kill her off, consider it ridding the world of a scourge!"
Qian Benying nodded: (๑・᷄◡・᷅) "Kill her, kill her. What use is keeping her? She even 'killed' you before. Last time she got away, let's see how she escapes this time!"
Saying that, she moved forward to shatter the frozen Xiang Zhi.
Jiangnan quickly stepped in to stop her:
٩(º口º٩) "No no no! Don't kill her! She's a mascot! Haven't you heard of the great name 'Xiang Kesi'?"
"Organization killer—she's helped me wipe out several organizations already. We need to let Sheng Xing take good care of her!"
"Keep her around, and Sheng Xing will be doomed sooner or later! Besides, a trash Dao Heaven isn't a threat. We still need her to show us the way!"
Qian Benying and Bai Kou looked at Jiangnan speechlessly. What the hell kind of mascot is that?!
Do you actually believe in superstition?
Bai Kou waved her little hand and unfroze Xiang Zhi: "Fine, I'll listen to you."
Jiangnan chuckled evilly:
(๑ꆤ͜ʖꆤ)凸ᕤ "Even though I'm not killing her, I still need to give her a beating, or she won't know how tough this Southern God is!"
With that, he stepped forward, swung his fists, and started pummeling Xiang Zhi wildly!
Xiang Zhi curled up on the ground, hugging her head, not daring to resist at all!
୧(#)꒦ິ口꒦ີ(#)୨
Damn it! This familiar iron fist rained down on her like a storm. Ah~ it tastes like the Southern God!
It wasn't that Xiang Zhi didn't want to resist—she simply didn't dare!
The freeze earlier had the power to kill her instantly, but instead of killing her, they deliberately unfroze her just to beat her up!
If she resisted, she'd definitely be killed, right?
By the way, Southern God, when you hit me, could you give me a chance to pull up my pants?!
I didn't even have time to pull them up earlier—don't I have any dignity?
You can't even see me, and you don't say a word—just keep hitting?
Xiang Zhi's mentality collapsed. Can you be any more brutal?!
[From Xiang Zhi: Resentment +777!]
[From Xiang Zhi: Resentment +777!]
Jiangnan raised an eyebrow. Oh? Pretty smart—she knows it's me?
In no time, Xiang Zhi was swollen all over, her face puffed up like a little bun, and she looked around in terror.
୧(#)༎ຶ༥༎ຶ(#)୨ "S-Southern God, are you planning to beat me to death? Did you unfreeze me just to beat me to death?"
"Don't just hit me! Don't you have any information you want to know? At least ask a couple of questions before beating me—go through the motions, alright?"
"I'll cooperate! How do you know if you don't try?"
Xiang Zhi looked utterly pathetic, her voice trembling with tears.
Jiangnan was stunned. I haven't even started asking, and you're already ready to spill the beans?
Could you at least resist a little? Otherwise, I won't feel any sense of accomplishment, alright?
With that, he lifted Xiang Zhi's clothes and pressed his index finger directly onto her belly!
Her soft belly was pushed in, and his finger slid across it nonstop.
Xiang Zhi sniffled, her face alternating between green and red.
୧(˶)˃᷄ཀ˂᷅(˶)୨
What's coming will come eventually, right? Is the Southern God planning to humiliate me thoroughly? And in front of two Teletubbies?
Is it going to be that exciting?
Xiang Zhi covered her face and completely gave up resisting:
(˶)ớཀờ) "B-Be gentle... it's my first... ptoo-"
Before she could finish, Jiangnan punched her hard in the stomach, making her cough up a mouthful of black blood!
(〝▼皿▼)و "Gentle your sister! I'm writing! It's not like you can hear me when I talk!"
"Who would even want you? You've already 'fertilized the wall,' and on top of that, you're a piece of trash? Pfft!"
[From Qian Benying: Resentment +777!]
I always feel like Jiangnan is scolding the dog by pointing at the chicken!
Xiang Zhi also realized that Jiangnan was writing on her belly. What kind of new trick was this?
After feeling it for a moment, Xiang Zhi froze, then said timidly:
(#)′◔﹏◔`) "The main control room? I-I just moved in less than a month ago. The Star Palace is pretty big, and I haven't gotten familiar with it yet. There are some places I can't enter."
"But... the control room looks a lot like that. I can take you there?"
"Equipment vault? I don't know if there is one here..."
So Jiangnan picked up Xiang Zhi like a chick, using her back as a writing board to have her guide the way!
Xiang Zhi finally had a chance to pull up her pants and cooperatively pointed the way!
After much wandering, they captured every mechanical sentinel they encountered along the way and stuffed them into sacks, finally arriving at the main control hall at the center of the Star Palace!
This was where Carl and the others usually held meetings!
Under the holographic projection, a three-dimensional model of the entire Star Palace was displayed!
As for the part showing communication status, it had completely gone black—clearly smashed by Carl!
The things displayed there were completely incomprehensible to Bai Kou and Qian Benying; they could barely understand some of the diagrams!
It was all in the Thousand Stars language—completely beyond their cognition!
Bai Kou's eyelid twitched:
(❅・ˇ~ˇ・) "How are you going to steal this? Don't count on me. The most I can do is use a smartphone, charge it, and connect to Wi-Fi or something!"
She had only learned that after being unfrozen. Otherwise, to scroll through pictures on her phone, she'd have to spit on her finger to turn the page!
Even Jiangnan was stumped. His hacking skills were useless here—this was a completely different thing!
There wasn't even a keyboard or anything!
Jiangnan closed his eyes. System baby, it's up to you!
With that, he reached out and tapped the holographic projection!
A familiar voice rang in his mind!
[Skill triggered! Silicon-Based Intelligent Logic Programming (Beginner): LV0!]
[Upgrade skill?]
Jiangnan's eyes lit up with excitement. Hell yeah!
System baby really came through! Since it knows the Thousand Stars language, alien technology shouldn't be a problem either!
Upgrade, upgrade, upgrade!
[Skill upgraded! Silicon-Based Intelligent Logic Programming (Advanced): LV0!]
[Insufficient skill points, cannot upgrade further!]
Knowledge about logic programming surged into Jiangnan's mind!
Jiangnan was both amazed and stunned!
Not enough skill points? He still had over twenty million!
How could it not be enough? That was enough to max out two spirit techniques!
Looking closely, this skill required ten times the skill points of a spirit technique!
Just upgrading to Advanced had already cost over eleven million, and upgrading to Grandmaster required ten times that!
That meant a hundred million skill points!
Jiangnan almost spat out a mouthful of old blood. That expensive?!
But thinking about it, this intelligent logic programming was too insane—it was the true core of silicon-based lifeforms!
It was equivalent to programming a brain, rules, action commands, and everything!
He could even reprogram the mechanical sentries he had captured!
To some extent, it was creating intelligent life!
But what Jiangnan had mastered was far from that level—still a long way off.
Without another word, Jiangnan started manipulating the holographic projection, attempting to rewrite the logic program!
His hands flew wildly, creating afterimages!
Screens flashed rapidly on the projection!
Qian Benying and Bai Kou were completely dumbfounded!
"(º口º*) "W-What are you doing?!"
Jiangnan didn't look back: "Stealing the base? If I get the highest admin authority, this Star Palace is mine!"
In that moment, Qian Benying and Bai Kou's jaws hit the floor!
Don't say something so earth-shattering so casually, alright?!
Σ(°△°|||) "H-How do you know this? Are you an alien?! I remember you're an orphan—hiss, that actually makes sense!"
Jiangnan rolled his eyes:
(꒪ั~꒪ั*) "Bullshit! What alien do you know who's as handsome as me?"
Qian Benying stroked her chin:
(͡°ก͡°) "Well... that's true..."
Bai Kou swallowed: "H-He's not just randomly tapping around, is he?"
Hacking an alien war fortress just like that? That's not scientific!
But the next moment, the alarm shut off, and all closed gates opened!
A large number of mechanical sentries swarmed in!
Bai Kou covered her face: "So he really isn't just randomly tapping!"
She immediately started freezing the sentries to prevent them from disturbing Jiangnan, while Qian Benying took charge of bagging them!
But as Jiangnan kept operating, his expression grew darker and darker!
He had underestimated silicon-based lifeforms!
The core logic program of the Star Palace was terrifying! He couldn't obtain admin authority at all!
The defense of the core logic program was horrifyingly strong, with an enormous volume!
With his current level of skill, there was absolutely no way to break through!
Even with a quantum computer's computing power trying countless possibilities, there was no chance of cracking it!
Even Carl, as the Star Palace's owner, had all his authority granted by the admin program!
The main program was like a group owner, while Carl, as the owner, was just an admin!
With his advanced skill, he couldn't even become an admin!
Let alone disabling the alarm or controlling all the Star Palace's functions!
He could only do some trivial things!
In no time, all the mechanical sentries in the Star Palace had been captured!
Qian Benying, watching Jiangnan sweat nonstop, couldn't help asking:
(๑•̌~•̑)ˀ̣ˀ̣ "Done yet? Alien Nan? We..."
Before she could finish, Jiangnan yelled "Holy shit!"
All the interfaces on the holographic projection turned red, and a spinning circle appeared in the middle!
A string of Thousand Stars script flashed inside it, and all the lights in the Star Palace turned into flashing red!
Jiangnan put on a bright smile:
(⌒﹏⌒;) "D-Done!"
Bai Kou swallowed:
(•︠~•︡❅) "That doesn't look like 'done' to me? I don't really recognize the words in that circle, but it looks an awful lot like a countdown?"
Jiangnan spread his hands: ʅ(・´‸・`)ʃ "It is a countdown. In three minutes, the Star Palace will self-destruct. The blast will probably blow the polar ice cap off Blue Star!"
"I don't have the authority to stop it—only Carl does. And I can't become an admin or a group owner right now... well, my home is gone!"
Inside, he was already cursing. Damn it, does it have to be so aggressive?
As soon as I try to modify the logic program, it goes straight to self-destruct? No hesitation?
Can't change ownership, can't disable defense mode, and now the Star Palace is about to blow up. What a mess!
Qian Benying shivered: =͟͟͞͞(꒪ᗜ꒪‧̣̥̇) "Enough to blow the polar ice cap off Blue Star? You call that 'done'?!
What the hell is a group owner and admin?!
Jiangnan rolled his eyes: "What else can I do? I'm limited. Hurry up and loot before it explodes!"
"I found the location of the Star Palace's equipment vault! This defense mode is tricky—mechanical sentries aren't all there is! Let's go!"
With that, he teleported straight toward the equipment vault!
And after all the sentries were captured, a cold mechanical voice sounded again:
"Detected malicious tampering with Star Palace intelligent logic program. Initiating self-destruct countdown!"
"All sentry mechanical legion signals lost. Activating War God Mechanical Prosthetic units to engage hostiles!"
