Chapter 9, Cloud Laboratory
At the very least, based on Yang Xiaoyou's recollection, as long as one does not infringe upon the interests of the other party's homeland, this individual's commitments are quite reliable in terms of self-restraint
Upon entering the elevator, one can observe that only one indicator light is illuminated, displaying the letters AME. Without hesitation, Luo Guohui pressed the only indicator light after entering the elevator
As for my current self, apart from playing games and watching anime online, everything else is completely obscure. However, in my memory, due to the necessity of survival, although my expertise lies solely in combat, I possess a wide array of skills. In this regard, I can be considered somewhat knowledgeable, which gives me a sense of confidence when I pat my chest.
"I’m sorry, but due to confidentiality principles, I cannot disclose that information." Luo Guohui淡淡地拒绝了Yang Xiaoyou的提问，目光投向不远处的阳伞大厦正门
"Here, use this. You might encounter 'people' below, so do not take off your helmet, and remember not to hesitate." Just as Yang Xiaoyou was lost in thought, Luo Guohui reached behind his waist, pulled out a handgun, and tossed it to Yang Xiaoyou.
The Wuyun system, the next-generation central control superbrain of the Wuyun Laboratory, operates at a speed exceeding 43.3 Petaflops/s, with the entire Wuyun Laboratory under its control
Rest assured, I can still handle such simple instructions, hehe. I do have some interest in computers. However, when opening for the second time, we might need to consider some changes, which could delay the opening a bit," Yang Xiaoyou assured, patting her chest.
Behind the main gate lies a pristine silver corridor, which is the origin of this viral outbreak
Hearing Yang Xiaoyou's response, Luo Guohui was already quite satisfied. Given that the temporary recruits were able to perform to this level without holding back, there was nothing more to say.
In that lifetime of memory, I was taken out of the city by Luo Guohui, and we boarded a helicopter sent by the other party. This time, although there was no exposure of my unique circumstances, if the simple confidentiality agreement were to be taken away by the other party, it would likely lead to considerable trouble
Stepping once again into this familiar yet unfamiliar place, the aura surrounding Yang Xiaoyou seemed to have changed, causing Luo Guohui beside her to glance at her a couple more times.
The footsteps of two individuals in the empty laboratory seem to indicate its desolation, yet the corpse on the ground suggests that there are other presences here
It seems that what is lacking now is practical experience, but the heart of a strong individual is not so easily tempered. As he watched the metallic gate of the passage slowly open and Luo Guohui step inside, a flicker of unusual emotion flashed in Yang Xiaoyou's eyes. After the protective door descended once more, he left his original position without any hesitation and walked towards the distance
Taking advantage of this moment, Yang Xiaoyou also inquired about some bottlenecks and minor troubles she encountered while reviewing her memories in this regard
Before the two individuals stood a massive titanium-gray metallic door, dreamlike in its appearance. The door had been forced open and had not closed automatically. Judging by the occasional sparks of electricity flickering from the edges, it seemed that this door, which could not close on its own, had been forcibly opened
Having already done this once in memory, this time the input of the instructions would certainly not go wrong, but Yang Xiaoyou still added some precautions for the actions she was about to take.
It seems that someone has already been here, observed Yang Xiaoyou, frowning slightly as she looked at the front entrance of the Umbrella Building, which had been cleaned quite thoroughly
Certainly, given Luo Guohui's position and influence, his commitment would only serve his own interests. Yang Xiaoyou's decision to make this commitment now is merely to provide an excuse for the actions that will follow.
Suddenly, his expression changed, as if he had thought of something, and he nervously asked, "The principle of confidentiality? I... I won't be silenced, will I..."
After receiving this promise, Yang Xiaoyou also felt a sense of relief in her heart
As Guo Hui and the bookkeeper entered the lobby on the first floor of the Umbrella Building, after he examined the wounds on the corpse on the ground, Yang Xiaoyou also asked softly, "Is this your companion? Or is it an enemy?"
According to later incidental understanding based on memory, the reason why combat personnel like Luo Guohui were dispatched for this operation instead of technical staff is that, no matter how skilled the technical personnel are, it is nearly impossible to forcibly breach the defense system of the main brain established by the cloud system.
In my impression, it took Luo Guohui nearly an hour to breach the defense network, forcibly pulse the main brain, and remove the core of the main brain. This means that I had an hour to carry out my own actions and achieve my objectives
"This group can temporarily be regarded as companions, although their mission differs from ours," Luo Guohui said lightly after examining the wounds on the corpse
My own home is not like the other members who have come here. If I were to be detained for an unfounded accusation, that would truly be a tragedy. Now, I must obtain a promise from Luo Guohui before I enter.
Luo Guohui's task this time is to extract the core brain module of the Wuyun system, in order to retrieve the experimental data stored within it
However, through a few simple maintenance commands, it is possible to temporarily open a passage to the interior. Yet, apart from the external cleaning area, the interior is equipped with a comprehensive automated defense system. Luo Guohui's task is to leverage his exceptional skills to infiltrate by utilizing the activation of the maintenance commands, reach the main brain, and temporarily incapacitate it using a violent electromagnetic pulse, followed by extracting the main brain's storage chip
No other corpses were attracted; this is a professional setup. If this individual is not a colleague, then they are a 'cleaner.' Hmm, indeed, we were not the first group to go down; it’s just that they did not take this route. However, it is also possible that this is a new wave. Did I, in my dazed state back then, do something that affected their actions? Or perhaps this movement caused some interference. Tsk, I hope there are not too many uncertain factors... Yang Xiaoyou looked at the corpses on the ground, her expression somewhat gloomy beneath the helmet.
As we move forward, the damaged flickering lights, the disordered office space, and the bodies of those who have been shot in the head become the main "scenery" of this super laboratory
The most marvelous aspect is that due to the violent reboot caused by the pulse, the laboratory's internal monitoring system on the day of the reboot is unable to record anything, and the originally locked laboratory door will also be unlocked after the main brain suffers a pulse attack
As one must change their own destiny, it is certain that the influence on the trajectory of the future will undergo alterations. However, he never anticipated that this was just the beginning, and changes significant enough to affect him had already emerged.
He looted the firearms supermarket, taking away quite a few handguns. However, before he encountered Luo Guohui, he found a place that was somewhat pleasing to the eye to set them down. Those guns were not meant for his personal use. The modified version of the M9, which he had previously handled, was a special type of M9 equipped with both a silencer and laser guidance. It was clearly much more practical than the ordinary civilian firearms available outside the supermarket.
It is evident that the group that entered earlier was very unruly and violent. Along the way, apart from the corpses, there were not many dead bodies capable of causing real trouble.
If the other party encounters a problem, then the task is almost declared a failure
With a sound of "ding," an elevator door opened in a place that resembled an empty parking lot, yet there was no one inside the elevator. It was only when the door was about to close that a figure suddenly rolled out from the ceiling of the elevator.
After a single beep from "Didi," he swiped a magnetic card, and the elevator doors opened in response.
Watching the nearly all headshot shooting, Yang Xiaoyou felt a slight heaviness in her heart, not expecting that from this moment on, there would be a change in the situation with the bookish student.
... ...
What I hope now is that the changes brought about by that particular trajectory will not affect my plans
This time, there are no concealed emotions involved. The images from memory, when he and Luo Guohui passed through here, truly required him to exert considerable effort. However, now, the more than ten corpses that should have been densely scattered at the entrance are all lying on the ground.
Cloudy Lab
There must be some explanation for the appearance of such a monstrous creature that devours everything in its path; you must know something, hm! My classmates and their teachers are all in a state of uncertainty regarding life and death
The laboratory door has been opened, and besides my companions, there is a high possibility of encountering 'terrorists.' Upon seeing individuals in white protective suits, do not hesitate for a moment to find cover and take shelter; if there is no place to hide, shoot directly.
Additionally, this notebook is for you. Remember the instructions above. When the time comes, I will need your assistance, but your primary focus should be on self-preservation. I will eliminate any dangers. The calm tone of Luo Guohui, however, revealed a strong sense of confidence.
Taking the instruction notebook in hand and continuously asking some questions that she had already inquired about in her memory, Yang Xiaoyou also understood that her next phase of planning had taken another step forward
Without hesitation, he resolutely stood up and brought Yang Xiaoyou to the elevator in the hall. First, he removed the external buttons, and then used a palm-sized electronic device to connect two ports.
"I promise you, I will not let you encounter any trouble." Luo Guohui seemed to hesitate for a moment, then made a commitment. Compared to this incident, which was difficult to conceal, whether a survivor remained silent seemed less significant in relation to the success of his upcoming mission.
I hope nothing unexpected happens Yang Xiaoyou murmured softly, tightening her grip on the military crossbow
It’s all right, come down. After confirming the situation around, the figure that rolled out blocked the elevator door and called out to the upper floor. Following that, another somewhat clumsy individual climbed down from above.
It is precisely for this reason that during the process of moving through several areas of this vast laboratory, Luo Guohui continuously informed Yang Xiaoyou of various emergency methods and practical tips.
The general turned the crossbow around to his back, took the modified version of the M9, and after awkwardly gesturing with it, Yang Xiaoyou also nodded in agreement
Gradually engaging in conversation with the other party, Yang Xiaoyou aimed to bring up this issue.
My task in this process is to input a cleaning command outside to allow Luo Guohui to enter. Once the main door closes automatically and the host restarts, I will input another command to let Luo Guohui exit.
Due to the existing impression of memory and the unfolding physical transformation, during this hour of traversing, Yang Xiaoyou's gains far exceeded the expectations of the instructor, Luo Guohui, ... and even surpassed Yang Xiaoyou's own expectations ...
As for whether Yang Xiaoyou would harm herself by locking herself inside, Luo Guohui did not have much concern. She would still need to take herself out after leaving the laboratory, and once the passage was sealed, the other party would temporarily lose their protection. The sooner she could help herself complete the task and get out, the safer she would be
Moreover, after the laboratory encountered issues, the central control system activated the emergency protocol. Currently, in this laboratory, which employs thousands of research staff, the majority of the corpses have also been effectively isolated.
... ...
In comparison to the potential changes that may occur with this young man, Luo Guohui is more concerned about the others currently in the laboratory. His colleagues from the special operations team are relatively easy to deal with; even if some have minor frictions with him due to ethnic differences, there is not much to worry about during the execution of their tasks. However, for those 'cleaners,' if any of them share the same objectives as him, the young man outside could be in considerable danger.
