"Zero! How's the analysis of the technical data for the 'Blacklight Virus' going?"
【目前解析进度78.7%，已经比对过85%的病毒数据库，综合相似度62.8%，预计剩余解析时间6小时42分钟26秒。
It is certain that this is a type of 'electronic virus' that has never been seen before.
"Hmm... an electronic virus..."
Yes, this is the cutting-edge technology in the appendix of "Meng Xiaolang's Travelogue".
When he first saw the name of this technology, he was quite startled. He thought that the brothers in the previous episode felt that this disaster-ridden world wasn't exciting enough and were preparing to give humanity another apocalyptic shock...
Blacklight Virus is from the Prototype series.
As a core element of the game, the Blacklight Virus is an unknown organism with the ability to infect, devour, and evolve.
At the same time, as an 18+ game full of violent and bloody scenes, the T-virus is just a little brother in comparison to it in terms of brutality.
Fortunately, it's just a case of the same name...
After mentally criticizing his own bizarre naming sense, Meng Lang asked again.
"The overall similarity is only around 60%, does that mean it's very different from traditional viruses?"
Yes, some of its code clearly uses a new encoding method different from traditional viruses, and preliminary judgment suggests it should have a unique attack pattern.
"Can you determine what kind of target this virus is targeting? For example, electronic devices or a certain system?"
We have compared our attacks with thousands of mainstream electronic devices and systems worldwide, but the attack matching rate is less than 30%.
More information about the attack targets can only be provided after the technical analysis is completed.
"All right……"
It's only a little over six hours, we can wait that long.
However... if the world's mainstream electronic devices and systems are not the targets, then who is this virus intended to attack?
He stroked his chin, deep in thought.
In the past, the cutting-edge technologies could be traced back to some extent in the main text of autobiographies.
It could be a culmination of human civilization and technology, a means of self-rescue urgently needed to overcome difficulties, or a key technology that plays a pivotal role in turning the tide in the world of the book.
But this "Blacklight Virus" is different.
The autobiography makes no mention of any relevant details.
When it appeared, what it was used for, and who developed it are all blank.
After reading "Meng Xiaolang's Travelogue," he originally thought his brothers would give him a set of "blueprints for a submersible," or a "miniaturized nuclear reactor," or at the very least, a "super-distance quantum communication solution"...
When I looked at the Easter egg, it turned out to be a virus!
Moreover, it's not a biological virus targeting the Night Demons, but rather an "electronic virus" that seems to be more targeted at our own people!
This is hard to understand.
Whether it's dealing with that giant lizard or the Night Demons.
From any perspective, this electronic virus doesn't seem to be as valuable as some of the other technologies...
Meng Lang, who couldn't figure it out even after thinking about it for a long time, couldn't help but complain inwardly.
In the past, riddle tellers at least revealed half of the story, but this guy used subtle and ambiguous language to conceal the romantic details.
Now they don't even mention the key technical information anymore!
The main point is that it relies on one's own guessing and intuition...
Although, as is customary, the answer to a riddle will eventually be revealed over time.
But if you can watch the whole thing straight to the end, who would want to wait for the serialization to continue?
"My brothers' tastes are getting worse and worse..." he lamented inwardly.
Of course, he would never admit that this style of speaking only half the story, satisfying his own desire to show off and his vanity while leaving those who hear it scratching their heads and tossing and turning in bed, was entirely in line with his own style.
If he weren't so vulgar, he wouldn't just say he "likes girls"...
Hmm... tonight is destined to be a sleepless and difficult night for Yan Weiwei...
"Ha~" He yawned and looked at the time; it was almost 11 o'clock.
Meng Lang, a health-conscious person who goes to bed early and gets up early, patted his laptop and said, "Work overtime tonight and give me the analysis report tomorrow morning!"
【receive! 】
Yes! Perfect! I like this kind of hardworking and reliable employee!
Involution?
Who can resist working 24/7 without pay as a free beast of burden?
From this perspective, the working time left for humans is running out...
Meng Lang took a nice shower and went to bed early, sleeping soundly.
He also had a dream in which he was surrounded by children and grandchildren, all of whom looked exactly like Xiaoyu, clever, well-behaved, and sensible. A group of little Chu Nans followed him around, calling him godfather as soon as they opened their mouths...
Lost in his sweet dreams, Meng Lang was unaware that his phone, which was on his bedside table, had been vibrating incessantly since 2 a.m.
……
Time goes back to an hour ago.
Jinghua, Hubei.
A Volkswagen Caravelle van was parked quietly in a blind spot of the surveillance cameras, about several dozen meters outside the high barbed wire fence.
"Eee-ooh~" A patrol car with its flashing lights passed by in the distance.
A blond, blue-eyed, bearded man in the driver's seat watched the patrol car drive away before glancing down at his tactical watch and turning on his headset.
"Buzz~ It's 1 AM Beijing time. 'Operation Eternal Night' officially begins. Each team, please report on your preparations! Buzz~"
"Buzz~ Group 1 is ready!"
"Buzz~ Group 2 is ready!"
"Buzz~ Group 3 is ready!"
The van has a very ordinary appearance and design, but the interior has been extensively modified.
The interior of the vehicle was packed with numerous communication and electronic devices, and various indicator lights were flashing as two technicians busily operated them.
The bearded man listened to the reports from each group through his earpiece, a cold smirk playing on his lips.
"Excellent! Activate the signal jammers. All teams, proceed according to plan!"
"Yes!"
The technicians inside the vehicle immediately sprang into action, various electronic devices emitting low hums, signal jammers activated, and the other teams of agents acted in unison, instantly severing Jinghua Laboratory's communication with the outside world...
……
"Didi-di-di-di-di~"
Meanwhile, in a three-story building in the southwest corner of the factory, two Chinese agents on duty were awakened by the piercing alarm.
The two men's expressions changed, and they quickly put down their coffee and went to the monitoring equipment.
"what's the situation?"
"Our wireless communication with the outside world has been cut off! It must be signal interference!"
What about wired communication?
"Including the fiber optic cables, everything is broken!"
The factory's internal network was also hacked, and all monitoring equipment is malfunctioning!
"Damn it! Sound the alarm immediately!"
There's absolutely no doubt that someone has taken action!
How long will it take for our people to arrive?
"It won't take ten minutes!"
"Okay, let's go!"
However, just as the two men rushed out of the building with their weapons...
"Boom!" A burst of fire erupted from the factory building not far away, followed by the substation and independent battery room further away...
Explosions occurred in three locations in succession, and thick smoke immediately billowed into the factory area.
Immediately afterwards, the brightly lit workshops, office buildings, and even the streetlights in the factory area went out one by one, plunging the entire factory area into darkness, with only a few emergency lighting devices still flickering a faint light.
"Oh no! The power supply has been cut off!"
The expressions of the two people changed drastically.
Even the most advanced security measures are essentially useless without energy.
Jinghua is just a company, not a military organization, so it's impossible for it to be equipped with multiple independent power facilities according to military attack standards.
Judging from the current situation, the other party has even targeted the UPS (Uninterruptible Power Supply)!
A glance at the production plant billowing thick smoke revealed that many workers were already rushing towards it in a panic, carrying fire extinguishers.
However, the two agents did not rush forward blindly, but instead exchanged a glance.
"To the data center!"
The factory only has production equipment. If the enemy attacks here, at most production can only be temporarily interrupted, causing some losses.
But if critical technical data and information were lost, the losses would be incalculable...
But when the two arrived at the data center, it had already lost power and was plunged into darkness.
Many engineers on duty at the scene were trying to contact the outside world with panicked expressions.
"What's going on? Why can't even the UPS provide power?"
"We can't get through on the phone! Go out and get help!"
"It looks like there's a fire at the factory. Send someone over quickly to check it out!"
"..."
Seeing the chaotic scene, the two agents were anxious and quickly ran over to get their credentials.
"Don't panic! Don't panic! We're from security. We're sealing off the data center doors now. No one is allowed in or out. Xiao Dong, go in and protect the important data. Watch out for any suspicious individuals around you..."
However, just as they were maintaining order and sealing off the gate, an engineer who brushed past them glanced back at them and tightened his jacket.
With a slight smirk, he swaggered along with the firefighters towards the factory.
Then, taking advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention, they broke away from the crowd and followed a secluded path to the bushes by the wall.
Parting the dense weeds and lifting the camouflage cloth, a black signal transmitter was revealed inside.
Then he took out a square hard drive from his pocket and connected it to the data interface.
Seeing the indicator light start flashing, I covered it back with the camouflage cloth and restored the place to its original state.
After carefully checking his surroundings and making sure no one was watching, he left and rejoined the crowd, pretending to be nonchalant as he helped put out the fire.
……
"Signal received! Data is being transmitted, estimated time is ten minutes!"
"very good!"
Inside the command vehicle outside the factory area, a bearded man grinned excitedly.
At the same time, the Chinese agent who had entered the data center also brought bad news with a grim expression.
"The data center's critical hard drive is missing! Someone stole it during the power outage!"
The companion who was sealing the gate felt a chill run down his spine.
Just then, their men finally arrived, and more than a dozen fully armed special police officers quickly ran up to the two men.
"There's no time to explain. Xiao Dong, you leave the search drive here. You all come with me and seal off the factory area and surrounding area! Pay special attention to suspicious persons and vehicles!"
Soon, several SWAT vehicles rushed out of the factory and began blocking key passages and searching for suspicious persons in the surrounding area...
ten minutes later……
Just as one of the vehicles approached the command vehicle, the technicians inside shouted excitedly.
"Data transfer complete!"
"Okay! Let's go!"
"Vroom!" The car, which had been running for a while, sped off without its headlights and rushed out of the secluded alley.
Upon hearing the commotion, the Chinese agents behind the vehicle immediately realized something was wrong with it and gave chase.
The two sides began a chase on the quiet streets at around 1 a.m.
However, just as they were passing a street corner...
A soft "Biu~" sound followed.
The right front tire of the vehicle carrying the Chinese agents suddenly blew out, and the car crashed into the curb.
The leading Chinese agent got out of the car, looked at the blown tire, and then at the vehicle that had sped away and disappeared from sight. He angrily slammed his fist on the hood!
"Damn it!"
……
The next day, when Meng Lang woke up, before he could even complain about his chaotic dream from the previous night, he was bewildered by the dense messages on his phone.
When Meng Lang saw the message, his eyes widened in disbelief.
"Uh...this doesn't make sense..."
