Chapter 352: Chapter 233: A Nap in the Cage

Gao Yuan: "Zero is really incredible. Is it truly not a real person acting?"

The next morning, Meng Lang brushed his teeth while looking at a friend’s message sent at 2 a.m., a few black lines forming on his forehead.

Yes, last night, for over three whole hours...

Was he brewing phone porridge?

That guy Gao Yuan... was he pressed some strange switch?

He brushed his teeth speechlessly while typing with one hand.

Meng said, "The company strongly advocates 944 for employees and resolutely eliminates welfare 007! At least at two in the morning, nobody is working..."

To think, a big boss who had destroyed worlds was treated like a free chatbot, he felt sorry for Zero for three seconds...

"Forget it, just consider it employee welfare."

Three seconds later, Meng Lang had included Zero in the company’s welfare programme.

This also illustrates the charm of technology, which even those who study history cannot resist...

While brushing his teeth, he considered how to add more burdens to Zero.

In the previous episode, he had managed to carve out an AI empire with the help of Zero.

Although it was the most dangerous, Zero was undoubtedly the sharpest ace in his hand at the moment.

Wouldn’t it be a waste not to make use of it quickly, considering the sacrifices made by his brothers?

Even if he didn’t need to be as high-profile as the previous brother, creating a secure and clean internal organizational network was also a big opportunity!

Always using civilian chat software to plan how to deal with aliens was not right.

If he failed because of this, he would definitely be killed by his own stupidity!

Strangely, in the previous episode, Zero had not found any traces of the Night Demon Clan on the internet.

There were two possibilities for this situation. The first is that the enemy’s electronic technology had exceeded his imagination, such that even a "Half-step Destruction Level" like Zero could not detect their tracks.

However, considering the style of the enemy’s every move, Meng Lang felt it was unlikely.

If the gap in electronic technology between the two were so large, they probably wouldn’t need to show up in person and could kill him silently.

Just like what he did to Xu Jingsong...

So, he was more inclined to the second possibility.

That is... the enemy had no technology tree related to electronic technology!

Or even if they did, their achievements were far inferior to those of humans!

Although it was somewhat unbelievable, a race capable of crossing the vast space to Earth was technologically inferior to humans in electronics.

But the universe is vast, and there are as many technology trees as hairs on an ox, so it’s not impossible that the enemy species has shortcomings in certain areas if their tech tree is completely different from that of humans.

At least from the current intelligence, the enemy seems to excel in the cutting-edge technology of the biochemical field.

Known technologies should include virus manufacturing, human body modification, brain domain control, and other related technologies...

Upon analysis, it becomes clear that these are all technological routes targeting "biological entities" themselves.

If humans represent a "Mechanical civilization," then the Night Demon Clan seems more like a "Biological civilization"!

Thinking this way, being a "Biological civilization" and avoiding the electronic technology field where humans excel is a quite natural choice.

Clearly, the enemy also knows the advantages "asymmetrical warfare" can bring to their side.

But on the other hand, humans facing the Night Demon Clan are not without their own advantages; if the enemy can wage "asymmetric warfare," perhaps their side could too?

The enemy created a "Silent Hill" in the realm of sound; humans could similarly make them dare not utter a sound over the communication network.

Although it seems they are already doing this...

The disadvantage on their side is that the Night Demon Clan lurks within human society, giving them a chance to spy on human intelligence, getting to understand humans deeply.

They also know to avoid using the internet to expose their sensitive information.

But humans can’t possibly remain silent forever.

Moreover, it seems that the enemy doesn’t even need to use the human approach for contact and communication...

It can now be basically judged that the Night Demon Clan’s main means of communication should be special frequency infrasound!

In fact, similar species exist on Earth... like dolphins.

Dolphins can make sounds at two frequencies, one over 200 to 300 kilohertz of ultrasound, which they use to detect the presence of bait or obstacles in the water.

The other is low-frequency infrasound, which serves as the "language" of dolphins.

The diversity of Earth’s biological treasury provides Meng Lang with samples for analyzing the enemy.

"Gurgle~"

Meng Lang spit out the foam in his mouth and went to the study after washing up.

Wondering whether staying up late last night was the cause, Gao Yuan had not replied to his messages and was probably still catching up on sleep.

After some thought, Meng Lang sent another message to the other party, informing them about the investment in the film industry, and stated that he would allocate part of the funds from Wanwu Holding to formally enter the entertainment industry.

He left the subsequent work to Gao Yuan and opened his laptop to give various commands to Zero...

"Level 9 Authority" was a special authorization Meng Lang granted to those like Gao Yuan who were part of the "organizational periphery" core, apart from "official members."

Although, currently, Zero’s permission grading actually had only two levels...

Nine is the limit; how prestigious are the "Nine Yin Scripture" and the "Nine Yang Divine Skill"?

If you named them "Double Yin Scripture," "Double Yang Divine Skill"...

Then Gao Yuan would know all the insider details of the organization!

As for this authorization... you could feel Zero’s super high intelligence and experience the organization’s technical strength up close. It was beneficial for enhancing the confidence and cohesion among the company’s internal staff.

But its function was limited to "personal information security protection"; it was impossible to use Zero to launch an attack.

Besides the laptop, most of the electronic devices on Gao Yuan were already under surveillance mode by Zero at this moment.

If anyone intended to harm Gao Yuan, he would be able to detect it immediately.

There was a reason why Meng Lang called it "Network Security Engineer."

As his openly acting agent, Gao Yuan would inevitably be in the storm’s center, facing attacks from all sides in the future. Providing her with a layer of protection was essential.

Although he felt a bit embarrassed, for the sake of humanity’s future, Chairman Gao, I am troubled that you must be at the forefront of the organization!

Don’t worry, I’ll properly buff you with the "Holy Shield" from behind...

However, merely securing the electronic devices on Gao Yuan was far from enough.

Next, he needed to provide a "information security barrier" for Changqing Biological and the associated companies that would follow.

As agreed, Gao Yuan would soon install Zero’s remote control terminal into the internal network of Changqing Biological. Then, the information security barrier would encompass Changqing Biological as well.

This was due to concerns for the security of technical data.

After all, from now on, many sensitive and advanced documents would continuously be transferred into Changqing Biological’s labs through Gao Yuan, making the protection of these valuable technologies a priority on the agenda.

Although Changqing Biological was not yet well-known, as it rose, it would undoubtedly attract many prying eyes.

If he could steal technology through hacking, so could others.

Another purpose was...

He had his sights set on Changqing Biological’s server room!

To his knowledge, Changqing Biological had built a 500,000-yuan cost-level C-level server room.

After all, it was just a biopharmaceutical company with fewer than a thousand employees. The demand for data computation and data storage was not high, and the server configuration could only be considered standard.

However, for Zero, which was still using an ultra-thin laptop as the main computing power, this was definitely a game-changer!

Due to safety considerations and to prevent technological leakage, Meng Lang was not prepared to transfer Zero’s core code to any external device without complete confidence.

Even if he purchased ultra-high-performance servers in the future, Meng Lang would never risk the "destruction of the world" by taking Zero out of his sight.

They would only serve as Zero’s "auxiliary brain," used to enhance Zero’s computational power and work efficiency.

And only under one extreme circumstance would Meng Lang completely unseal Zero, this "double-edged sword"...

"It’s a pity, he died too suddenly in the last episode, I didn’t get to see the effects..."

Meng Lang felt regretful as he closed the laptop and lightly patted it...

...

When Meng Lang went out on time, he saw Xiao Yu already waiting for him with a bag of breakfast.

"Good morning, Xiao Yu! Oh? Why do you look so listless? Did you not sleep well last night?"

Meng Lang noticed Xiao Yu was clearly lethargic and couldn’t help but feel puzzled.

"Ah! I don’t know what happened; my sister kept tossing and turning all night and didn’t settle down until late at night."

Couldn’t sleep? Could it be she encountered trouble at work?

"Ha..." Xiao Yu yawned.

"Let’s not talk about it, Uncle, let’s go. I need to catch up on some beauty sleep at school later.

Staying up late is bad for a girl’s skin."

Meng Lang burst into laughter when he heard that.

Looking at Xiao Yu, who had recently been eating well, her already chubby cheeks had grown thicker, almost layering.

He smiled and gently patted her little head.

"Xiao Yu, I must correct you.

It’s the melon-seed faces that get beauty sleep; your kind of baozi face... that’s called a ’recovery sleep.’"

Xiao Yu: "..."
