Gunfire, Punk and Necromancer

Zhuang Xuteng drew the picture again, and this time he was obviously more attentive. He had to check every line again and again to make sure there were no problems before drawing it on the picture. He needs to learn from his previous work and avoid falling into his previous mindset.

More than an hour later, he put down his pen again and raised his head, his eyes even more confused than before. "This is wrong..." He scratched his head vigorously and said to Meteor: "There is nothing wrong with these surveillance images, right? Why can't they be put together?"

When Meteor heard his words, she took off her helmet - there were other mercenary teams that needed her to provide intelligence support just now, and they will need her in a while - and spoke to Zhuang Xuteng with her skull open: "What's wrong? Do you need help?"

"You go ahead, I'm afraid I really need help." Zhuang Xuteng said: "I tried to put the surveillance pictures together in a puzzle, but they all failed. These puzzle pieces are very disobedient, and I don't know. Something went wrong.”

Meteor tilted his head, and blood beads flowed down the gap in the implant opening, which was a bit scary. She must be used to this feeling, so she didn't take it seriously and said: "Let me talk about my experience: when spying on information networks, it is easy to get yourself involved if you think about the situation too complicated. The smarter the person, the easier it is. Overthinking, so you subtract, maybe it’s not as complicated as you think.”

"These are surveillance cameras, how can we subtract them?"

"Look at the time, the sun is going to set soon. Just look for obvious shadows and reference objects and put them together. The other ones are all uncertain, so don't add them to the puzzle yet. You can search... No, I have something else to do here, so I won’t accompany you.”

Before he finished speaking, Meteor put on his helmet again and lay down on the chair, entering the information network again. Zhuang Xuteng sighed, put down the pen first, left the sofa to find a disinfectant tissue, walked to Meteor and wiped her blood. This little girl is also working hard. Like other mercenaries, she will bleed, and of course she needs others to take care of her.

Thinking about it carefully, this was the first time Zhuang Xuteng watched Meteor work for a long time. He didn't know she was so busy before. Every time the information is used to probe the implant, Meteor's head will be opened once, and bleeding and pain are inevitable. Such an action also has a high chance of suffering from injuries and affecting health. This girl needs to take medicine and injections every day to improve her body's immunity. Without these drugs, the healing speed of the opening cannot keep up, and she will be prone to inflammation and infection, which may be life-threatening.

As a semi-professional implant doctor who reads a lot of medical and pharmaceutical books, Zhuang Xuteng is very aware of the dangers of long-term use of those drugs. Meteor's own immune system and metabolic system will definitely become more and more dependent on drugs. If this continues, her body will gradually weaken, her self-healing ability will continue to decrease, and she may even disappear completely.

At that time, if any organ - including skin - was damaged, she had to replace it with a new one until there was nothing left to replace. Zhuang Xuteng would definitely not let that happen. It was best to start from now on reducing the side effects of Meteor's implant.

He raised his hand, made a gesture on Meteor's head, and then sighed. Meteor's helmet is a full-coverage helmet, which blocks direct contact with the palms, and the ability to absorb resentment cannot function. In addition to touching the head, placing the palm of the hand on the heart is also a method, but Zhuang Xuteng is not the kind of gangster who takes advantage of the opportunity, so he has no choice but to give up and wait for Meteor to take off his helmet.

Patting his cheek, Zhuang Xuteng asked himself to wake up and concentrate more. Since the previous idea didn't work, there's no harm in trying the shooting star idea. Zhuang Xuteng returned to the sofa, took out another piece of paper, and first marked the camera with a very clear shadow of the building and background reference, and then considered other sources.

There are thirty-six cameras that meet such conditions. There is no conflict between them and they form the external surveillance area of ​​the old house very harmoniously. Zhuang Xuteng roughly calculated that about 70% of the ground space was under their surveillance, which was pretty good.

"There should be no problem with these. We will add others later." Zhuang Xuteng made fists with both hands to encourage himself before getting back to work.

Soon, contradictions appeared in the surveillance footage, that is, different cameras had different "views" of the same area. Zhuang Xuteng had already mentally anticipated the problem, so he was not in a hurry this time. He marked the problem, put it aside, and then continued to do other things. Dozens of cameras were all made. There were sixteen sets of contradictory pairs, seven sets of three different cameras, and two sets of four cameras with different opinions.

Zhuang Xuteng made a special list to record these contents. This is where the problem lies. He now suspects that not all of the monitoring equipment is real-time footage, and some of the data may have problems.

He waited for Meteor to finish her work, but couldn't wait for her to take off her helmet. "Meteor, can you hear me through the helmet? Stay in the information network for now."

"Okay, I can hear it. Let me enhance the ambient sound a little." Meteor raised his slender white arm and fumbled with the button on the side of the helmet. "Okay, now the sound is clear. What do you need me to do?"

"I found that there may be problems with the images captured by several cameras. I will give you the number and you can check it for me again, okay?"

"No problem, let me reconnect to the image transmission system first, and then...then get out the number...wait a moment...ok!" Meteor gave a thumbs up and said: "Tell me the number, but one by one. Come on, I can’t check more than one at the same time.”

Zhuang Xuteng reported the number to her, and Meteor invaded along the information network to verify the data. There are a total of forty cameras to be checked, each taking about five minutes. Meteor carefully checked the data stream and told Zhuang Xuteng that there was nothing wrong with these cameras.

"They are all real-time images. I can feel the occasional fluctuations caused by the old equipment. This is the most obvious evidence of the real-time signal. Well... I have to take off the helmet to treat the wound, otherwise the blood stains will be stuck in the gaps."

"Okay. Do you need me to avoid it?"

"No, no, just stay here. I'm not afraid of you seeing it, because I know you will only keep it in your heart and won't tell others." Meteor sat up, holding the helmet in both hands and raising it up. Just when she revealed her head, Zhuang Xuteng noticed that several shadows left Meteor's head from the energy and retracted into the helmet with a swish.

Um? What is this? Zhuang Xuteng carefully recalled the previous times when Meteor took off her helmet. He was very concerned about it. He always used his shadow eyes to measure how many side effects she suffered, but he had never seen this phenomenon. So before Meteor could clear his head, he put his hand on it. Of course, he wouldn't touch the open brain part of the meteor with his palm, it would just hang above his head.

Meteor shrank in reflex, then controlled himself not to escape, and timidly asked: "Naike, what's wrong?"

"I can see the energy from the shadow. There was energy from...how to put it, it feels like a tentacle extending out of the helmet to connect to your brain, and it retracts when you take off the helmet."

"Don't scare me!" Meteor immediately became nervous. As if she had thought of something, she immediately sped up the spray of medicine into the implant and the injection into her arm, then got up and ran to another room. There was the sound of rummaging through boxes and cabinets, and two minutes later she walked out dragging a metal box the size of her head with both hands.

"My helmet can help me hide my location. It works automatically, which means it is also a device in the information network. Since it is a device, it may be spied on." Meteor put the box on the table with a bang, and then Start turning the ten-digit code lock above. "Under normal conditions, when I disconnect the network and retract the probe of the skull implant, the shadow energy should be disconnected. If you read correctly, there is still shadow energy when I take off the helmet, then it is most likely from outside. .”

"Are you okay? Stop for a moment and let me take a look at you!"

Zhuang Xuteng held Meteor, asked her to sit up, and then put his hands on top of her head. When the mana is concentrated in the Eye of Shadow, his eyes emit a faint blue light - only in this way can he see clearly enough. Meteor saw this scene from the reflection of the smooth tabletop. She was not afraid at all, she just felt calm and comfortable.

Necromancy can also be used for treatment, but it is in the form of equivalent exchange. Zhuang Xuteng drained away all the resentment within his power and transferred it to the little white mouse. He took the rest by himself. He just hoped that Meteor would be fine. When he let go of his hand, Meteor felt relaxed, but Zhuang Xuteng was not very comfortable. He ordered the implant in his neck to give him a shot of nutritional supplements, plus another shot to relieve the pain, and then used martial arts to control his body so as not to stagger and make Meteor suspicious.

"My head has never felt so comfortable! You are so awesome!" Meteor looked back at Zhuang Xuteng and frowned slightly. Her thoughts were all on this person, how could she not see it? When she was about to say something, she immediately understood that Zhuang Xuteng was holding on because he didn't want her to worry. Only in front of the people he cares about will a man act like a stubborn boy. So Liuxing didn't say a word of thanks, nor did she show any worry. She just smiled happily, then used all her strength to protect Zhuang Xuteng and threw herself into his chest.

"Okay, okay, I'll give you a massage. There's no need to be so excited." Zhuang Xuteng coughed twice and gently pushed Meteor away. "What's in that box of yours? What a complicated combination lock."

"What's inside is my skull, which was removed when installing the information detection implant. Lucy spent a lot of money to find me the best implant doctor and use the best equipment - here to Nightingale , Yanque expressed sympathy and regret - so my skull was not only preserved intact, but also made into a shadow follower."

"Ah? Skull Shadow Servant? What is it used for?"

"Well, it's a bit complicated... Let's use an analogy. These skulls are taken from my head. They can be used to disguise themselves as my second head." Meteor thought for a while and said: "Functionally speaking, They are the body armor of the information world.”

"I understand. If someone wants to hurt you in the information world, the skull shadow slave will take responsibility first, so that you can find the problem." Zhuang Xuteng scratched his head and said, "That's good! Why don't you usually use it? I just need to do it. You will wear a body armor when doing work, so you are prepared!"

"This skull can only be used ten times, and this time there are only six left. Okay, open it!" Meteor unlocked the ten layers of locks, verified the fingerprints again, and said something into the microphone, the innermost The box was then opened. Inside, there is a piece of skull filled with shadow chips in a sealed container. It is about the size of a palm and soaked in blue liquid.

"This is my lifeblood. If it falls into the hands of bad people who know what to do, I will never dare to go to the information network again. Nike, you must know about the zombie remote control system. This skull can be used as a zombie remote control system. The key directly controls my mind and soul. I can't resist." Meteor pointed at the box and said: "If it fails to pass the verification, the box will destroy the skull immediately. I can still accept it without a body armor, no You can’t kill your soul.”

"Then you should be careful." Zhuang Xuteng took a step back, staying away from such a sensitive thing.

"What are you afraid of! I know you won't harm me!" Meteor said with a smile: "The last time you came to rescue me, I didn't dare to fully trust you, so I left the box where it was. Now, I'll put this Let me tell you the truth, you will only help me pay attention and worry about me."

Zhuang Xuteng smiled and nodded: "I will keep your attention. But don't trust me completely, because the appearance, voice and body shape can all be imitated. You have to beware of someone pretending to be me. Always be careful! I don’t want anything to happen to you.”

"I understand, I will listen to you and nothing will happen to you! Now please give in..." Meteor directed Zhuang Xuteng to step back, and then began to assemble the skull. She took the thing out of the preservation fluid, connected it to the helmet, and then adjusted the position of the interface. After everything was installed, she did not put on the helmet immediately. Instead, she put down all the equipment and said to Zhuang Xuteng, "Tell me again what problems you have discovered."

Zhuang Xuteng pointed out those abnormal points and clearly explained the process of discovering them. Now that they have noticed that there are problems in the information network, from this perspective, the two of them think of the situation as worse and more dangerous.

"There is one detail..." Meteor said: "The network of the Cemetery Gang base is also protected. I spied in in three stages. In the first stage, I had to pass through their password protection and access the internal network. In the second stage, I had to obtain The surveillance camera authorities had obtained quite a lot of real-time images at this time.”

Zhuang Xuteng asked keenly: "Quite a lot? So that's not all the images?"

Meteor nodded and said: "Yes. I found that there was another layer of protection, so I continued to crack, and found more real-time images. It was not difficult to crack this layer, and I got the internal monitoring information and another part of the external cameras. This Some of the real-time information from the camera is...hiss...images with shadows and reference objects are all useful!"

"This is a big doubt!" Zhuang Xuteng immediately pointed out the problem: "Obviously the Cemetery Gang has classified the images into easy-to-identify and difficult-to-identify images, and then added an extra layer of protection. This shows that they are very sensitive to information espionage. Be prepared. Meteor, those seven guys who were arrested, what is the intelligence officer's ability of their middleman - please estimate the difficulty - to what level can he crack? "

"It's not difficult, it's really not difficult. There's no problem at all on the third level." Meteor covered her mouth, she had come to her senses.
