Technological practice: leading the human race to the stars

Chapter 203 Return to B03
Zhang Zhisheng and Yuanze stood on the head of the Xiezhi, overlooking the "City of Freedom" with its neon lights.

"I didn't expect that there was a wanted criminal standing on the head of Xiezhi." Zhang Zhisheng opened his arms and felt the refreshing breeze from the top.

"I found out the cause of the nuclear fusion facility crash from Shadow and World. I'll send it to you."

Zhang Zhisheng pulled back his arm and looked at the information projected in front of him: "Have you come into contact with those people in the underground world?"

"Yes."

After hearing Yuanze's answer, Zhang Zhisheng took out a can of happy water and took a sip:
"Why don't you consider seeking my protection? This is my territory, and no one dares to act wildly here."

Yuan Ze did not hesitate at all: "I will now forge my own path and no longer be a seedling that needs protection."

"Well, you are indeed much more mature than when I first met you, and your strength has improved a lot. Your mental strength is comparable to mine."

"You're hiding it pretty well."

The information on the computer clearly stated that the person Zhang Zhisheng had killed was a third-level scout-level warrior.

No matter what means he used, this shows that his comprehensive combat power is at level four or above, which is why it is possible to prevent him from escaping.

It was not until today, when his mental power was almost the same as his, that he discovered that Zhang Zhisheng was actually a sixth-level scout.

Zhang Zhisheng smiled at Yuanze and said, "It's been a long time since I last saw you. I don't think you came here to chat with me. Tell me what you want me to do. After all, you have helped me a lot."

Yuanze briefly explained his situation.

He found that when he talked about "Ghost Plague" Shi Yihan, Zhang Zhisheng frowned involuntarily, as if he had something on his mind.

After saying this, the two fell into silence, and for a moment they didn't know what to talk about.

"People are here!"

Suddenly, Zhang Zhisheng rushed in one direction suddenly.

A moment later, the sound reached Yuanze's ears, asking him to follow along.

"I don't know which ignorant fellows are coming to City Lord Zhang to cause trouble again."

Yuanze shook his head and immediately jumped off the top of the Xiezhi's head and followed Zhang Zhisheng.

He saw a familiar figure from a distance. He was Smith, the AI ​​supervisor he had found.

"What bad luck! I came here to look for him, but he has become a wanted criminal in China?"

Smith was staggering here with a bottle of wine. If he had known, he would have gone to T01 to party with the other crew members.

At this moment, several attackers emerged from the darkness, intending to assassinate Smith.

However, all these attacks were predicted by the two.

Yuanze rushed to Smith and opened the force field in advance to block all attacks.

Zhang Zhisheng also tied up the people who attacked secretly and threw them to the ground.

Smith had just recovered from the shock. At that moment he truly felt the death.

However, the fact that these people were eager to assassinate him also showed that he had some secrets that he didn't want others to know.

"It's so remote. Even if you walk in the 'Free City', no one can guarantee your safety."

"Who are you?" Smith asked anxiously.

"Yuan Ze should have told you who I am."

Zhang Zhisheng lowered his hood, and his battle suit quickly transformed into everyday clothing.

"Are you City Lord Zhang?"

Smith couldn't believe it. Last time Yuanze said he would take him to B03 to see City Lord Zhang, he thought it was a joke. Now, he saw City Lord Zhang in person, who looked exactly like the photo in the file.

"Of course, who else do you think it is?"

"Who is this little brother? He is very skilled."

City Lord Zhang smiled calmly: "This is my friend's apprentice Sun Zeyuan, who has been training with me for a while."

"oh oh."

"This place is not suitable for us to talk, let's go somewhere else."

Zhang Zhisheng used his mental power to lift Smith, then threw the group of tied-up attackers to the security team that arrived and left.

The three of them came to the conference room above the Xiezhi's head.

The three of them sat around a transparent table made of high-tech materials. Zhang Zhisheng turned on the holographic projection and showed them the information about the nuclear fusion facility accident.

Astra also showed some of the intelligence it knew and submitted a virus analysis report on the attack facility.

Smith looked through all the information, took Paul's USB drive, plugged it into the device, and began to examine it carefully.

"This person's level is higher than mine. I know all the computer science survivors who got this memory at the same time. The scope can be narrowed down to these five people."

Smith printed out the projection and also printed out the information of these five people.

"Does Shadow have overseas members?"

"Most of them are overseas members. They value computer skills more. They have a set of training methods to use source power to operate computers. Once they reach the Nirvana level, they can enter the upper level."

“What about the average person who has strong computer skills?”

"Ordinary people can also join, and they have ways to help them acquire Yuanwu talents. Everything is fair competition."

"How do you know this?"

"I once fought a system attack and defense battle with one of them. He admired my talent and later wanted to recruit me to join his team."

Yuanze placed the computer and a memory stick on the table and began to speak in a hoarse voice:
"This is the item I seized from the members of the Shadow organization when I was on a mission for City Lord Zhang. See if you can use your skills to decipher the contents inside."

"I'll try." Smith nodded.

The data and images on the holographic projection kept flashing. Smith's fingers slid quickly across the transparent desktop, analyzing the files in the computer.

"These codes." Smith frowned, his eyes moving through the data stream. "This is an encryption method I have never seen before. It is very advanced."

Last time, Astra only deciphered a small part of the content, but obtained a lot of information and sent Shi Yihan away.

But now, Smith has unlocked more information, which involves all aspects of China's secrets.

Astra also kept a close eye on him, watching his operations and continuously learning from the Mingtu database.

"I have tried my best. Some of the remaining information is too confidential, and there are also programs that need to be decrypted using the source power."

"Yuan Ze, go up there. I'll send you the operation instructions. Try to see if you can crack it."

"Let me try, Mr. Smith."

"You? Forget it, don't waste your time. Maybe you have a strong talent for Yuanwu and can snatch these from them, but today's computers are not something you can handle."

Smith vacated his seat, took out the remaining half bottle of brandy and started drinking.

He wanted to let this ignorant boy in front of him have a try, so that he could know how big the gap was between him and him in computer skills.
