Chapter 389 Fourth Gear Overload

Crescent City Tower of Babel.

Zhao Yiming had already received the news from Zhou Hannian before, including the pictures and data he scanned with his prosthetic eyes.

Now there is a complete chain of evidence, and Luo's secret rebellion has been confirmed.

The next thing to do is very simple, just inform the headquarters of the situation, and he will make a comeback!

If such a big insider is uncovered, don't say that he will be the biggest contributor to the company in recent decades, and he will be able to get the position of a senior executive at the headquarters easily!

If Zhou Hannian had another perfect ending and caught Fenrir, a good thing would come in pairs. Even a seat on the supreme board of directors would no longer be a dream!

In this situation, Zhao Yiming didn't even know how he could lose!

Unable to contain his enthusiasm and excitement, he immediately attached the relevant evidence to the email, wrote the email address of the headquarters, and clicked send!

Under his eager gaze, the ring symbol representing the processing process rotated for a long time.

Then suddenly a prompt popped up:

[Network connection error, please resend the email]

"I am *civilized zygote*!" Seeing the sign that the network connection was disconnected in the lower right corner of the screen, Zhao Yiming cursed directly and wished he could kill the network engineer and his family.

While frantically clicking the resend button, he took out his cell phone to make a call, preparing to report to the headquarters first.

However, as soon as the call was dialed, he heard a cold prompt coming from the receiver:

[Hello, you are currently not in the service area, please try again later]

Zhao Yiming's expression suddenly changed.

Since the Tower of Babel was penetrated by Fenrir, the fiber optic hardware in this building was damaged and is still being repaired. The network instability does occur from time to time.

However, the mobile phone signal is public and has nothing to do with the Tower of Babel. It did not suffer any damage during Fenrir's attack, and interruptions are very rare.

Even if it's really unlucky and the public signal is interrupted, will it happen at the same time as the network failure inside the Tower of Babel? What is the probability of this?

In this Internet age, it seems that information transmission methods are developed, electronic data can reach places hundreds of thousands of miles away in a few milliseconds, and the entire world seems to have become integrated.

But when the electronic signal disappears, people will become an island, completely isolated from the outside world and unable to make any sound.

Just when Zhao Yiming was struggling to figure it out, he suddenly discovered a detail. The built-in camera on top of his laptop was emitting a faint red light, indicating that it was on.

He can be sure that he has not actively turned on the camera, and with the protection level of this computer, it is absolutely impossible for ordinary hackers to break into it.

Considering the current situation, there is only one possibility left for someone who has the motivation and ability to stop him from sending emails.

Zhao Yiming stared angrily at the laptop camera, gritted his teeth and reluctantly said a name: "Qi Ling?"

There was no response from the built-in speaker, but Zhao Yiming knew that the other party could hear it.

Anger burned in his eyes, and he almost shouted: "You ungrateful little beast! I personally recruited you into the company and asked you to learn the most profound hacker knowledge. Now you use what you learned in the company to Deal with me?"

"You are a shameless person. You eat my food, use my money, and spend my money. If I go to a meeting next door, you will eat three boxes of ice cream!"

Cursing and cursing, perhaps because he felt that it was impossible for Qi Ling to break her guard with such shrewish words, Zhao Yiming calmed down a little and said gloomily: "You guys are colluding with Luo, right? Haha, have you forgotten, inside your body?" And the silent ones I left behind will die if they are poisoned!”

"I have destroyed Luo's situation. She will definitely lose. There is no need for you to struggle with her anymore. Now that you have come to my side again, I promise you that I will let Zhou Hannian let Su Mo go, and the palliative medicine will also be used." Will continue to give it to you.”

"I know you're not afraid of death, you little lunatic, but you don't want Su Mo to feel sad for you, right?

After Zhao Yiming finished speaking, there was still no response from the notebook.

Suddenly, he realized the problem.

In his understanding, Su Mo valued his companions and would never mess around with Qi Ling's life.

So as long as he pinched Qi Ling, he would pinch Su Mo's weakness and make him obey her words.

But now that Su Mo has lost control and dared to take risks, it does not mean that he has given up on Qi Ling or is betting on Qi Ling's life.

The logic is exactly the opposite. Only when Qi Ling's life is safe, can Su Mo dare to break free from control.

In other words, the poison of the Silent One in Qi Ling has disappeared!

Questions arise one after another, when was the poison cured?

That engineer named Future developed the antidote? impossible.

There is a lack of relevant technology and materials at the margins, and this lack cannot be made up for by personal knowledge.

But Su Mo must have obtained the antidote for Qi Ling before he dared to stand on the opposite side of the company.

Combined with what happened some time ago, a terrible answer appeared in Zhao Yiming's mind.

His eyes were as round as copper bells, and he said in shock: "When Fenrir attacked the Tower of Babel, you laid out the chess pieces?!"

Finally, the change came, and the computer screen began to flash wildly, displaying various garbled codes and unrecognizable patterns, and the host emits a low and piercing alarm sound, as if it was a final wail.

The mobile phone was also invaded, and the familiar icons and text on the screen disappeared without a trace, becoming completely blank, turning on and off.

The electronic virus wreaked havoc in the digital world, destroying all the videos and data sent back by Zhou Hannian, and drowning out the evidence of Luo's betrayal in court and Margin's secret assistance.

Finally, after a long silence, the other party's response came from the computer speakers.

Qi Ling's voice sounded, cold and emotionless, with only two bloody words:

"Go to hell."

After the words fell, Zhao Yiming suddenly felt a creepy feeling, his hands and feet were like needles. He stood up from his seat and subconsciously looked back. The scene he saw made his hands and feet cold.

I saw that several spider-like small robots had climbed on the window at some point. This is a special weapon used for assassination. It can climb over almost all complex terrains and use mechanical suction cups for vertical climbing.

The robot is equipped with a laser launcher with a silencer module and uses energy bullets. After killing people, it will not leave the bullet body at the scene. It is a weapon commonly used by many special service departments.

Originally, with the electronic defense measures of the Tower of Babel, this kind of thing could not get close at all, but in front of the top hackers, those invisible barriers that could protect Zhao Yiming had long disappeared.

Seeing the spider robot's weapon bay begin to glow, Zhao Yiming trembled as if he had been electrocuted. He almost used his hands and feet to hide behind the table, and shouted with a grim face: "Wait!"

"Kill me, and you will never see your childhood friend again!"

"Ah!!!"

Zhou Hannian roared hoarsely, and his big hand suddenly broke through Dongdong's heart and grabbed the energy core.

For the prosthetic implant recipient, the energy core is something similar to the human "heart".

It's okay if the implant recipient's bionic heart explodes, because after the whole body prosthetics are replaced, there is a certain compensatory effect between the various bionic organs, and an exploded heart does not necessarily mean death.

But no matter how powerful the prosthesis is, it still needs energy supply to drive. Once the energy core explodes, it is basically equivalent to a death sentence.

Su Mo and Nuo Bai rushed forward from the left and right, trying to cut off Zhou Hannian's hand to rescue Dongdong.

But Zhou Hannian had a plan to deal with it. The "Grade 1 Vanguard" energy core in his body started to work explosively, and the materialized plasma energy flow spread wildly around, rolling up a hurricane and directly blowing the two people away.

Then he exerted force again, ready to crush Dongdong's energy core and pull it out, killing one first!

However, just as he was about to complete the fatal blow, an accident happened.

Dongdong, who was beaten and disabled, suddenly raised his scarred little hand and grabbed Zhou Hannian's wrist.

Zhou Hannian thought it was just the struggle of a dying man, and just as he was about to exert force, he suddenly found that his hand could not move.

The little hand holding him had an indescribable great force, which damaged his built-in microcircuit. His palm lost control directly and could not complete the crushing action. It just hung there stiffly, unable to pull it back.

And the next scene completely shocked the king of mercenaries.

Zhou Hannian felt an extremely terrible super-high temperature coming from his palm, which even made his prosthetic armor plating start to heat up, and a high temperature warning came from the built-in information interface.

"Boom--" In an instant, with the roar of energy release, the azure plasma suddenly erupted from Dongdong's energy core, burning all over the body like a blazing flame, and it was so huge that it had never been seen before.

And behind the blazing flames, Zhou Hannian saw Dongdong's eyes burning with boiling fighting spirit.

"Have you had enough?"

Zhou Hannian could hardly believe the situation in front of him: "Third gear overload."

In the field of prosthetics, to see whether a person is a genius, in fact, many times, his prosthetic level is not considered.

Because the level of the prosthetic alone cannot explain anything. Now immune preparations are very advanced. If you take drugs desperately, a person with average talent can also equip a very advanced prosthetic.

But prosthetic overload is different. This thing has nothing to do with taking drugs, and only relies on the purest talent.

If it can be used, it can be used.

If it can't be used, no matter how much you practice or take drugs, it will be useless.

In the field of prosthetics, there is a famous "minus three law", which is the golden indicator to judge whether an implant recipient has talent.

The so-called law of minus three refers to whether the implant recipient can achieve an overload state of the magnitude of "minus three for the prosthesis level".

For example, if an implant recipient has replaced his entire body with a fourth-level "fearless-level" prosthesis, whether he can use "first gear overload" has become the standard for judging whether he has talent.

Those who can do the "minus three" operation are generally considered to be prosthesis geniuses.

And those geniuses with extremely strong talents can change from "minus three" to "minus two".

For example, being able to control the first gear overload with the third-level "military-grade" prosthesis, or the second gear overload with the fourth-level "fearless-level" prosthesis, all belong to this category.

Dongdong made a big fuss in the Hellhound Mercenary Group at the beginning of this year. Why did she become famous in one battle and made the whole city's forces and even the Iron Blood Union very interested in her?

Not only because she single-handedly defeated Lucifer, the leader of the Seven Stars at the time, but also because she completed an extremely amazing "minus one" operation-using the third-level "military-grade" prosthesis to explode the second gear overload.

Zhou Hannian had accomplished this feat before when he was young, so he knew how difficult it was.

Those who can perform the "minus one" operation are no longer geniuses or prodigies, but are destined to become legends.

More importantly, as the level of the prosthesis continues to increase, the difficulty of the "minus one" operation will increase exponentially.

This is the case with Zhou Hannian himself. When he was at the "military level", he could perform the "second gear overload", but after he was upgraded to the "fearless level", he was unable to successfully use the "third gear overload". Later, he was upgraded to the current "pioneer level" before he could successfully control it.

At this time, Dongdong completed the minus-one operation with a fearless-level, or even the worst "fearless level 3" prosthetic body in this large level, and exploded with the horrifying "third gear overload", which completely shocked Zhou Hannian.

At this moment, he understood that the little kid in front of him, who was not yet an adult, was a being with a talent beyond his.

Dongdong pushed away Zhou Hannian's hand that had been inserted into his body, and slammed in front of him. The tall body flew backwards like a kite with a broken string, and staggered for more than ten steps before standing firm.

Then Dongdong grabbed the edge of the stone wall and let his body that was embedded in it get out.

She was really beaten badly this time. The whole person was unrecognizable, and sparks of failure burst all over her body. The penetrating wound on the heart was even more hideous.

It was not easy to be able to stand with such an injury.

It was a miracle that she could burst out and use the third gear overload in a desperate situation.

Zhou Hannian frowned and said seriously: "Kid, you can use the third gear overload at the fearless level, which is better than me back then."

"But I can also use the third gear overload, and my prosthetic level is higher than yours, and the damage is much better than yours. You can't do anything to me. You are very talented, don't die here in vain, and withdraw from the battlefield by yourself."

Zhou Hannian thought that the explosion just now was shocking enough.

But he never thought that it was just the beginning of the shock.

The plasma burning around Dongdong was originally azure blue, which is also a typical sign of the third gear overload.

"Boom--"

However, in the roaring sound of the energy supply core like a dragon's roar, the plasma flames on Dongdong's body burst out with a white scorching light, and destructive power erupted.

The terrifying heat flow turned the surrounding rocks into lava, and even the local climate of this mountainous area was affected. The clouds gathered at the zenith began to vaporize and turned into a clear area.

Even though the heat was blowing in his face and the temperature was so high that it was hard to breathe, Zhou Hannian still felt the chill running down his spine, and his eyes were unfocused as he watched the scene.

".Fourth gear overload?"

Fourth gear overload!

"Fourth gear overload" with a "Dreadnought-class" prosthesis!

Since the advent of prosthesis technology, it is unique in the world!

The white plasma surged around Dongdong like a raging tide, and the air waves formed by the temperature difference caused the surrounding sand and rocks to fly. The pair of eyes full of crazy fighting spirit seemed to crush Zhou Hannian.

"You bastard, you think I am a breakthrough point, right?!" (End of this chapter)
