[Mertz: The first option is to persuade Professor Ji to utilize the power of technology and modern weaponry to support your offensive.]
Linna remained silent.
He had thought about this long ago.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have gone to see Elder Ji before.
Although this era is one of extraordinary prosperity, technology has not declined.
The most advanced technological weapons are no less powerful than supernatural forces. A single omnipotent weapon can easily destroy a city, but a nuclear bomb can do the same.
“But that’s impossible,” Linna said regretfully. “Unless I tell him about the existence of the 4090xs system, he definitely won’t give me control of the weapon.”
It's like one day you time-travel back to when you were 8 years old and became a little kid.
Then you reach out to your dad for money, confidently telling him that you know all the future lottery numbers.
Your dad would just wave his hand and slap you, saying, "Go play somewhere else."
[Mertz: Then there's a second way to break his defense—your White Reaper's Scythe.]
Linnaeus's eyes lit up.
Oh, right...
The sharpness of the night is ∞ (infinity).
[Mertz: But this is also very difficult, because with your abilities, it's almost impossible to get close to him.]
Linnaeus: "...That's true."
However, he could not possibly hand over Baiye to Yewan'er to use.
White Night is the soul weapon of the White Reaper; no one but the White Reaper and an apostle possessing the power of the White Reaper can use it.
Lin Nai let out a deep breath.
He flicked the cigarette butt out of his hand.
I'm really not used to smoking this.
I don't know why Lao Zhang and his friends always like to smoke this stuff.
'Since that's the case, then we'll have to resort to a more extreme and risky method...'
Lin Nai's eyes darkened as he thought to himself.
......
Sky Eye Room.
Mr. Ji stood here, watching the matches continue on the field below.
This year's competition has many promising players, and the competition is much more exciting than in previous years.
But at this moment, Mr. Ji seemed somewhat distracted.
After all, a Black Angel of all realms had inexplicably barged into the town of the event, and it was difficult to estimate what kind of threat such an uninvited guest would pose.
What puzzled Ji Lao was what the other party wanted to do.
If he truly is a being of the Omnipotent level, and he wants to abduct Night, no one in this race town can stop him.
But he hasn't made a move yet...
Seeing Mr. Ji's expression, Assistant Zhang guessed what the old man was thinking: "Mr. Ji, are you still thinking about that Black Angel?"
Old Ji remained expressionless and softly replied, "Hmm."
Assistant Zhang hesitated for a moment, then said, "Mr. Ji, how about we stop the match?"
"No way." Old Ji immediately rejected the idea: "The other side is holding back right now, probably waiting for something. We are not prepared for anything yet. If we suddenly stop, it might provoke the other side to take action, and we will have no room to resist."
Assistant Zhang: "That's true..."
Old Ji said solemnly, "What I'm suspecting now is, could this guy have some other motive?"
Assistant Zhang asked curiously, "What other purpose could he possibly have?"
Old Ji was silent for a moment, then paused and asked, "Where is Commander Sun? Has he returned yet?"
“He’s back,” Assistant Zhang said in a low voice. “He’s mobilized all the dimensional soldiers and Night Watchers he could from Yecheng and several nearby cities.”
"For a demon of the Myriad Manifestations level, this amount of troops is simply suicide." Elder Ji sighed, and then said, "At this point, I don't know if it will be too late to seek reinforcements... Even if we mobilize all the best modern technological firepower equipment in Ye City, how many could we possibly have?"
Assistant Zhang replied, "100 ultra-high pressure soul energy cannons, 1000 centrally controlled tracking missiles, 200 C-type mech elites... This is the most advanced weaponry in Yecheng, after all, Yecheng is just a small fifth-tier city..."
Old Ji remained silent for a while; clearly, this firepower was still insufficient.
"Where is the Xuanwu now?"
Assistant Zhang asked in surprise, "You're going to use the Xuanwu?"
Mr. Ji replied calmly, "Hmm."
"..." Assistant Zhang paused for a moment, then said, "The Xuanwu is currently stationary in the stratosphere, 50,000 meters above the ground, above Yecheng."
Ji Lao: "Let the Xuanwu descend to 8,000 meters and be ready to go at any time."
Assistant Zhang: "Yes!"
At this moment, a referee suddenly ran in and solemnly said, "Elder Ji, Lin Nai requests an audience!"
"Hmm??" Old Ji frowned. "Why is it this kid again? What's he doing here this time?"
Referee: "He didn't say, he just said it was something very important."
Old Master Ji remained silent, then waved his hand and said, "Let him in."
Referee: "Yes!"
After a while, Lin Nai was led in.
They came before Elder Ji.
Old Ji, with his hands behind his back, glanced at him and asked, "Lin Nai, what brings you here this time?"
"Oh, it's nothing this time," Lin Nai said calmly. "I came here specifically to greet you, Elder Ji, and wish you good health."
Professor Ji: "?"
Seeing Lin Nai's serious expression, Old Ji had a strange look on his face, thinking he had misheard.
"What did you say?"
Linnaeus: "I said I came to wish you good health."
Professor Ji: "......"
Linnaeus: "..."
Professor Ji: "......"
Linnaeus: "..."
Old Ji: "...At a time like this, you still have the mind to joke with me??"
Linna smiled: "I'm not joking."
He looked into Ji Lao's eyes and scanned his iris.
A transparent panel with a 4090xs resolution appeared before Linnaeus's eyes.
This panel was obviously only visible to him intentionally.
[Target System Version: 990z (Humanity has made special improvements to the 990t system of the Gods' Civilization, and it is currently the most advanced system version in human civilization)]
[Target system firewall level: 5]
[Hack success rate: 100%]
[Probability of hacking being detected: 55%]
[Mozi's Tip: You can easily crack and infiltrate someone else's system, but their enhanced firewall will likely detect your intrusion.]
Should we proceed with the hacking/intrusion?
Lin Nai knew very well that Ji Lao's personal system must contain the key to control all the weapons.
But he certainly can't take that risk now.
A face-to-face hacking attack is far too blatant.
Linnai's gaze swept around the Sky Eye Chamber again.
The Sky Eye Room is filled with monitoring screens and control panels where technicians work.
Under Murz's scan, the entire terminal entrance to the control room was within his field of vision.
