Chapter 493 Electromagnetic Mania (VI)
[Arasaka Group Encrypted Channel: The target is advancing at high speed on the elevated highway at the edge of Westbrook, suspected to be the roving AI Muramasa. ]
[Military Technology Channel: Roaming AI confirmed, dangerous weapons are being assembled. ]
[Petrochemical Security Channel: It is recommended to exclude security agents for security inspection. ]
[Kantau Security Department: Roaming AI. ]
[Biotech Security Department:.]
A roving AI can run rampant on the Internet, but the network of Night City is a local area network, and almost every LAN of a certain size has a black wall connection.
So if the roving AI really messes around on the Internet unscrupulously, it will instead bear huge pressure from the black wall.
But some AI, such as Muramasa, is also a highly skilled technical expert, weapon design expert and mechanical structure expert.
The miniature high-frequency transmitting equipment buried in Night City became its vanguard for hacking and destruction. These tiny devices easily defeated the power grid of Night City's non-corporate power network from a physical level, gathered a large amount of electricity, and occupied most of the wireless frequency bands.
This first move was taken by it, and the company could only scratch its head for a while:
First, wireless positioning depends to a large extent on the endurance of the equipment and the strength of the signal receiving and sending device, which in turn depends on the energy intensity of the power supply line.
And Muramasa's equipment has taken away a lot of electricity and distributedly stored it in small devices buried in the city. The total amount is large, the endurance is strong, and it is difficult to locate. There is even no place to launch physical attacks.
Furthermore, the frequency band and encoding method used by AI are almost impossible to be decoded by humans. If short-term decoding is considered, the word "almost" can be removed with confidence.
It is impossible for humans to decode AI's wireless encoding method in a short time, because even if they are given a cable to connect, most hackers can only be burned.
So now the company is very busy, very busy, especially Arasaka Company -
Muramasa was captured by them many years ago!
But the coincidence is here:
When the company was surprised by the AI with unknown origin and unknown technology that appeared in Night City and took away the power of most of the city and defeated the civilian networks, they immediately took out the highest level of information channel and reported the changes in Night City to the headquarters.
Seeing that the matter was about to evolve into a fight for the roaming AI, Arasaka's Kujira aircraft carrier quietly took off all disguises and suddenly appeared less than 50 kilometers away from the coast of Night City!
You must know that although the Night City Municipal Government has begun to draft documents to prepare for this big guy to dock for a short time, it is only the beginning of implementation after all!
Many companies' information and security forces have not yet been in place!
The two things collided with each other. Should we investigate Arasaka's sudden arrival or follow up on this AI?
They must make a certain trade-off.
People are secretly cursing: Arasaka Saburo, this old dog, is too time-consuming!
But some people who have lived for a long time and have been confronting Arasaka for a long time will have another feeling:
Arasaka Group, Saburo Arasaka always has an amazing grasp of the timing in some major events.
But unfortunately, there are too few such people, so few that they can almost be said to be non-existent.
The aircraft carrier arrived at the coast in chaos, Arasaka Tower, high-level, Saburo Arasaka's unfilial son, Arasaka Nobuo looked at the information in his HUD and felt more and more suffocated
His father must be planning something, but he knew nothing about it.
Extreme Metal Unlimited Racing came to the fastest section in the city, and has bypassed the Kabuki Market and is about to enter the Watson District, which is also the last section of this race.
The team and the huge robot rushed on the road, and the invisible electromagnetic waves forced the humans in the dark to become extreme.
Explosions came one after another, shootings came one after another, and the wandering AI almost crushed the Burger King he had high hopes for.
Arasaka Nobuo sat down on the chair with his hands and feet limp.
When the game just started, he felt that this familiar scene was so vibrant, people used their few ways to vent their emotions, claim sovereignty, and win the future.
But now, he felt that maybe not only the beginning was the same, but also the ending:
These crazy people were just a flash in the pan in the end, and when the company got what it wanted, they would be swept away.
He thought he had become more stable, but his father's sudden appearance still shattered all his confidence, and even his original confidence in the three magical guys was shaken.
He was too afraid of Saburo Arasaka, and this fear interfered with all his judgment.
Rai Xuan's eyes looked at the road absent-mindedly, and a dazzling flash pulled back the focus that was gradually lost in his eyes!
The shoulder cannon of the giant robot was hit!
The speed of the roaming AI is slower than that of humans?
Rai Xuan looked carefully, but found that in the ruins of the factory in Watson District, it was the Whirlpool Gang that got the power armor from somewhere, carrying all kinds of heavy weapons to interfere with the assembly of Muramasa!
"Can we win?"
The last stage of the Watson North District, which was almost paralyzed by the internal war of the Whirlpool Gang.
Mura Shota is confident that he will win this gun-building competition!
It was surprised that Lille could use the damaged control board and Nekomata to build a powerful electromagnetic cannon on the spot, but that was the main board that had been burned by the electromagnetic pulse after all.
How can humans repair such a complex three-dimensional stacked electronic control panel faster than AI?
This is true, Lille is indeed slower!
Inside Muramasa, the assembly drones carrying components have undergone drastic changes. Some heat-collecting components that have lost heat dissipation have melted during full-speed operation, just right to connect the cables and components that need to be welded together.
The machinery and parts are like humans using their limbs, and they are combined one by one under the control of the current.
When the last cable was connected, feeling the pleasure of the power supply line being opened, Muramasa began to charge before the fixed structural parts were completely welded. The electromagnetic magazine of EMG-85 was ejected into the gun body, and the freezing agent was released quickly. It is expected that the temperature of the conductive line will be reduced to the critical value within 1 second--
When the conductive line enters the superconducting state, it takes less than a millisecond for the current to be full, the projectile will be pushed out, and the already scarred Mackinaw will be penetrated.
Lille, its enemy, its opponent, the only two humans it has encountered so far who dare to compete with it in this field.
Will be defeated like the previous human.
It's just that
unlike the last human, he will lose this opponent forever.
It's hard to explain the feeling.
0.7 seconds, the cryogenic agent began to spread, the material began to change its characteristics, the resistance dropped sharply, and the current poured in.
0.8 seconds, Muramasa found that its influence range had weakened.
0.9 seconds, it caught someone in the air and came to its side--
it didn't even find anyone?
"Haha! Iron lump, your grandpa Brick caught it!"
Brick, wrapped in power armor, kicked the cockpit of the Centaur mecha crooked, and the person inside was completely crushed, and the strong hand of the power armor directly smashed through the coil tube of the electromagnetic gun!
Muramasa stared at Brick and Lille, and the latter's octopus arm ejected a claw.
Middle finger.
As for the former, Muramasa only had one sentence to say:
"ばかやろ (Bakayaro)!"
It will explode if you poke there!
