“So, this is a fact now?”
Kiriman stared at the High Technician in front of him, who hesitantly nodded with a hint of discomfort.
“Yes, sir. As per your orders, I've been monitoring the Whisperer's network and the result is… regrettable.”
“They are uploading some kind of code to the Kaus network… Can you figure out what those codes are for?”
“I'm afraid it's not possible in a short time, and moreover… the nature of those codes…”
The High Technician hesitated.
“The nature of those codes is peculiar; we've done our best to contain them, but they seem to be able to penetrate our defenses. The Mechanic Religion is somewhat concerned about this. However, up until now, it hasn't produced any effect–it might just be some unique program code of the Whisperers? But I wish they had notified us beforehand.”
Upon hearing the High Technician's report, Kiriman fell silent. Although he didn't fully believe in Duanmu Huai's warning, Kiriman was always one to take precautions. Thus, he had been monitoring the Whisperers' access ports to the Kaus network under the pretext of “focusing on the communication channels of the Whisperers to avoid faults during the large-scale military exercise.”
This was actually quite normal–after all, the data flow caused by such a massive military mobilization is unpredictable. It would not be strange to coordinate and monitor the communication channels of both militaries to prevent issues. Therefore, the High Technician did as Kiriman had instructed.
But now, the news he brought was anything but reassuring for Kiriman since Duanmu Huai had once warned him that the Whisperers would cripple Kaus' military network by some means, and looking at the current situation…
He may have hit the nail on the head, unfortunately.
“Can the Mechanic Religion handle this issue?”
“At the moment? I'm sorry, but the Mechanic Religion does not prioritize it, considering it just data overflow from the large-scale military mobilization. Besides… We seem to lack the means to counteract it.”
“I'm very sorry to interrupt your conversation.”
Just then, a gentle voice sounded, and Kiriman turned to see a girl stand up and come to his side.
“The Great Judge once instructed that if you face issues with network data, I can offer technical support on behalf of the Tribunal.”
“Are you saying that you can solve this problem?”
“If you allow me, I would like to try.”
“Hmm…”
Kiriman looked at the girl, then back at the High Technician, who watched the girl with a curious gaze.
“Sir, she is…”
“As you've heard–do you think it's possible?”
“I'm not sure.”
The High Technician shook his head, the mechanical tendrils behind him fluttering slightly.
“Apologies, but in my personal opinion, I don't think this mortal girl can have any effect on Kaus' network faults. With all the support of the Mechanic Religion, we still cannot…”
“So, you can't complete it in a short time, can you?”
“Sorry, but that's correct.”
“Then, Miss Lumiere.”
Kiriman said no more but turned his head to look at the girl.
“Are you sure you can handle it?”
“I can try, but I can't say for certain.”
Miss Lumiere's response was careful as well.
“Of course, if you refuse my assistance for reasons of information data security, the Tribunal will understand.”
“May I ask what your plan is?”
“According to the Great Judge, these… Electronic Demons are hard to completely eliminate. Personally, I can lure the viral programs to relatively safe data spaces and isolate and eradicate them. I can also divert the information transfer channels, causing the codes uploaded by the Whisperers to be directed to a specified location.”
“Alright, let's have you give it a try.”
Kiriman pondered for a moment and nodded.
“What do you need?”
“I need a terminal.”
“That's not a problem.”
Kiriman looked up at the High Technician.
“I recall we have the Meditators that were replaced, right?”
“Yes.”
“Let her use one of those.”
“Yes, sir.”
Although the High Technician doubted an ordinary girl could handle such a troublesome issue–after all, even the pilots of the Mechanic Religion would struggle to solve it under these circumstances–he had to follow Kiriman's orders.
Soon, a group arrived at a warehouse on the Kaus Space Station, where the replaced Meditator terminals were stored. The High Technician stepped forth and first connected his neural network. Whatever this girl was planning, he needed to monitor every move–this was the core of the entire military network. Although he didn't believe an ordinary person could respond within this vast data flow, he remained calm and dutiful.
Then, the High Technician saw the teenage girl reach out her hand and place it on the terminal.
What good will this do?
Seeing this, the High Technician internally shook his head. Such a primitive input method could only be used to read and search for data. A true servomechanic should sync their thoughts with the network and then… How could this be possible?!
