Chapter 504: Chapter 148: The Demon Sect also needs to do PPTs

This part must be emphasized again, "Shit Mountain" doesn’t actually have particularly exceptional defense abilities against Inner Strength.

The efficiency of "Shit Mountain" codes themselves is not that great, and their resistance to pressure is definitely much lower than that of well-written, concise code. When facing DOS and DDOS attacks, the expected lag and overheating will occur.

And, at most, it’s just not easy to be infested with Gu (likely due to compatibility issues with many modern Gu), but the vulnerabilities and backdoors that are supposed to exist will still be there.

Even if you do find a backdoor within Shit Mountain, it’s powerless to fix it.

After all, it’s like a building, where the entire base is made of shit paste; attempting to fix it rashly might just trigger more serious consequences.

Upgrading Shit Mountain is just too difficult.

Overall, Shit Mountain is more of a detriment... no, it is almost "all harm and no benefit".

Nobody uses Shit Mountain to defend against Inner Strength attacks.

This is also why programmers have an instinctive aversion to Shit Mountain.

During the construction process of the Soth Divine Realm, masters of the Internal type would link many Inner Strength operations with their intuitive feelings and instinctual responses, leveraging their brain’s innate algorithms to summon more brain resources.

And many programmers would associate the "intuitively unpleasant experience" that would be deemed "inedible and prone to disease" in Evolutionary Psychology with "Shit Mountain".

If they themselves were creating Shit Mountain, they would feel a jarring aversion.

Of course, it is just an aversion.

Whether it’s "forcibly suppressing the aversion to slack off and not write comments" or "actually writing comments" is another story.

But...

But the Shit Mountain that Xiang Shan is facing is on a completely different level.

As mentioned before, Shit Mountain itself can also contain the likes of backdoors. Shit Mountain can also be cursed.

What astonished Xiang Shan was that the Martial Artist of the Six Dragons Sect, who had been cursed by him, only paused slightly as if they’d just eaten a DDOS attack hard.

Well, overall, he had shoved a bunch of Curse Skills hoping they would break through directly.

All those Commands were basically a mini DOS attack.

But not one of the numerous Curse Skills, tantamount to a DOS attack, worked.

That’s not scientific. Even if the Prosthetic Body system was old, it couldn’t be older than Zhu Xinyu’s. The curses that Zhu Xinyu mastered would necessarily affect all living humans and intelligent life forms.

But that Shit Mountain was exempt from it all.

What actually had an effect was the lag caused by the DOS.

Secondly, this Shit Mountain was just too shitty.

If an ordinary Shit Mountain is like a heap of farmyard manure,

Then what this person had was the Great Wall of shit.

If ancient emperors had piled up all the aged shit from the Central Plains into a Great Wall, perhaps even a ceiling like Genghis Khan of the Barbarian Tribe wouldn’t be able to break through the Central Plains.

But in reality, no emperor would ever really do such a thing.

Why?

Because the disadvantages are greater.

The Great Wall of excrement certainly could make the barbarian tribes back off in trepidation, shouting about its invincibility, but the maintenance cost would be terrifyingly high, not to mention the potential epidemic risk it posed.

Xiang Shan found it hard to believe that any Internal Martial Artist could come up with such a fecal defense for the Great Wall.

This Great Wall of excrement had nearly rendered all his curses ineffective. This suggested that its creator had hardly referenced any tutorials or open-source code and had created this thing much like reinventing the wheel.

Unable to knock on the gates with curses, he could only rely on reverse-engineering and other Internal methods to breach into the Restricted Area, trudging through the mountains of excrement.

That would be extremely difficult.

But an Internal expert capable of making such a wheel must not be low in realm. With the kung fu needed to make this fecal Great Wall, the actual Great Wall could have been repaired several times over.

It really was incomprehensible.

"Since it consumes DOS, then it should suffer from heat attacks too, right..."

"Think of a way to overload it with information..."

Several methods flashed through Xiang Shan’s mind to sanction this fecal Inner Strength. This mountain of excrement code must be less resilient than normal code, as long as the feedback information is not filtered out, he wouldn’t disgust himself. So...

Several ill thoughts had already flashed through Xiang Shan’s heart.

And as the connected series of attacks and defenses unfolded, Daijiu Tai’a realized that he couldn’t defeat his opponent.

When Xiang Shan had revealed his style of conduct before, Daijiu Tai’a knew who he was. But what Daijiu Tai’a hadn’t expected was that, unseen for three years, this individual had actually become so formidable.

— External strength aside... the Inner Strength just now...

— They said the enemy’s Inner Strength was close to the Iron Heart Dharma King’s, I thought the information was exaggerated. Is this senior’s Inner Strength also so formidable? If it wasn’t for this experimental Prosthetic Body, those two Personality Masks might have been annihilated!

Within the Six Dragons Sect, there are many "seemingly beautiful" technologies—after all, the Sect Hierarch and the Dharma Kings quite enjoy listening to "stories." Without a seemingly beautiful story, it would be difficult to act freely within the Six Dragons Sect.

And those technologies that are more experimental in nature than they are practical are distributed by the Six Dragons Sect to various places for experimentation.

Sometimes, an overly exotic technological tree indeed can avoid some "instant-kill mundane" hacker attacks, which is an unexpected blessing.

The true Daijiu Tai’a was inside the War Chariot, while a Prosthetic Body controlled by his Personality Mask roamed outside.

It was precisely because these two Personality Masks had unique hardware that he escaped disaster.

Through the car’s loudspeaker, he shouted, "Senior, it’s been three years since our last encounter, who would have thought we’d meet again today!"

Why use the loudspeaker? Because he would never let Xiang Shan connect to his own system.

Xiang Shan looked at him, "Is it you? It really is the Six Dragons Sect’s doing. Not pretending anymore, huh?"

"I wouldn’t dare. It’s just that the last time we met, you said to me, ’The next time we meet, we may be enemies.’ I had some concerns too."

While Daijiu Tai’a spoke, he had another Prosthetic Body bring over the Hermit of Heavenly Machine.

The Hermit of Heavenly Machine had lost the ability to move and was slowly drawn closer by the peculiar tentacles, unable to look towards Xiang Shan. He shut down most of his Prosthetic Eyes and turned his face to the other side.

Xiang Shan stared at the Hermit of Heavenly Machine, "Last time, I felt that what you did, given your relationship with the Green Forest, could hardly be called chivalrous. Now it seems... well, you even have bona fide Green Forest members. The Demon Sect remains the Demon Sect indeed."

"You don’t need to hurry to your conclusion," Daijiu Tai’a said. "The true Green Forest Heavenly Machine Star was eradicated by us many years ago. The Hermit of Heavenly Machine that you see before you is just someone who infiltrated them back then..."

Xiang Shan laughed, "It would have been better if you hadn’t mentioned that. The more you say, the more absurd it gets." He pointed at the Hermit of Heavenly Machine, "This guy has been undercover in the Green Forest for many years, yet no one realized he wasn’t one of them. The things he did were the deeds of the Green Forest."

"But all of this was for the sake of conducting a grand experiment," Daijiu Tai’a said. "I humbly ask you to listen to the reasons and consequences for a moment."
