I Returned as an FFF-Class Witch Doctor

Episode 235

“X-bar… x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x…”

Jamie hugged his knees and bit his thumb. Sitting crouched in a gaming chair, he looked uncharacteristically nervous.

On a rainy night, only the lights from the four quad monitors illuminate the darkened corner of the room.

If it was him normally, he would have been streaming live streams of his favorite streamers by now or writing a game column for which he earns a living, but now Jamie was staring at the monitor instead of wrestling with the column manuscript.

Instead of dynamic live streaming, there were only codes running on a black background.

However, those codes are still being updated rapidly in real time, and that they are creating formulas that they have never seen before, repeatedly writing and deleting them arbitrarily.

“This… no, it’s nonsense. There’s no way they’ll be discovered already…”

Ta-d-d-d-d-dat!

And Jamie pounded the keyboard at a terrifying speed, as if possessed by something, and soon began listing the waves of codes made up of countless symbols on the empty section sheet floating on the remaining monitor.

It was a completely different look than the one he was humming along in the nerd life.

“This is the problem… If the dummy code doesn’t work, self-replicating the same kind of code… Set the judgment based on the code application to be flexible, but the absolute value should not exceed 1000. If the code error 10442.dll and elxser.sce cannot be replaced with Akex, the record of code destruction is deleted. No, it’s better not to record it in the first place. Error warnings can be judged and dealt with manually, and the code configuration can be rewritten… What the fuck am I doing?!”

Suddenly, Jamie screamed as the sheets in the blank section became long enough to reach several A4 pages.

I wondered if anyone was watching him, maybe he had multiple personalities.

That would be the case, as the fact that he is currently wrestling in front of the monitor is not simply hacking to break the seal to solve a given difficulty, but it is like playing a tug-of-war with an invisible enemy in real time.

Furthermore, the fact that it was a program created by the world’s best programmer and genius was a terrible factor that made Jamie fall into a dilemma.

It was like wrapping your hair as if all your hair was going to be plucked out right now.

Secretly hacking Thousand Eyes, an all-weather multiple apocryphal observation program created by Master Hyuk, aroused considerable interest and admiration in him, but at the same time, it was also what made him feel the < wall >.

It was a great way to annoy Jamie, another genius and retired shadowy programmer.

“X feet! I’d rather not receive it! I’ll just ignore it! Why are you digging your own grave and going through all this trouble, Jamie?! huh? Are you stupid enough to even think of that?! I haven’t been able to sleep properly for days and I wonder what are you doing here!!!”

thud! thump thump!

Jamie hit her head on the desk as the sheet she had woven flowed to the monitor next to it like water.

Needless to say, even in the midst of this, the raised gaze was watching the code.

Start with Gordon. And it’s up to him to put an end to it.

However, this painful marathon had a blind spot that could not be stopped in the middle, and Jamie had a hunch that he had already come too far to throw everything and disappear.

As long as he already noticed his presence over there, “Ahaha, I’m sorry. Did I bother you? You got the wrong number! Ha ha ha!

With Gordon’s support and the very own program he’s built, he hasn’t been pinpointed yet, but if he backs down, this monstrous program will come after him.

Besides, since there was no way to leave a person who suddenly broke into the house alone, Jamie had no choice but to continue fighting for this code even if she died soon.

Although it was an attempt after receiving a request, it was because, just as self-defense exists in reality, retaliation was implicitly accepted in the code of this virtual reality.

‘Anyway, even Thousand Eyes was created by humans… As long as Master Hyuk is a human, there will always be gaps. It is said that this long fight will end someday. X foot yes There is definitely a way.’

Tring! Tring!

Jamie nervously chewed on her thumbnail as countless codes and notifications popped up on the monitor.

It was a misfortune to say that it was fortunate, but it wasn’t too bad.

Thousand Eyes. The most powerful program and weapon of Division 13, Evertale’s secret department.

According to Gordon, this program was built by Hyukjin within 72 hours after the Hyper AI Akashic Records crossed the tipping point, and is used as a means of monitoring and observing the Akashic Records along with the original purpose of contemplating the all-weather of the Arsia continent. I heard it

It was a bonus to operate in virtual reality, away from the eyes and ears of the Akashic Records, while allowing GMs to wield mighty powers beyond cheats.

From the point of view of continental people or adventurers living in AC, it is enough to think of quantum mechanical phenomena such as freely twisting the laws of physics or uncertainty of probability.

Although it was later learned that mastering the admin code entails a lot of training and adaptation, it is precisely these things that make it possible to nullify awe-inspiring magic with a single word or pass through a spearhead naked. It was also the power of code.

It was the part where we could see why Hyukjin was the general development director of Evertale and the head of Oracle.

The fact that a new method was created within 72 hours to control a hyper AI that was out of control in the first place is surprising in itself, and it didn’t make sense that it had such a degree of perfection by itself.

However, the need to connect using biological reactions to protect control from AI was the blind spot of Thousand Eyes, which Gordon and Jamie, who gave the information, put their heads together.

In other words, the Matrix.

Like this sci-fi movie, which is considered one of the masterpieces of film history and had a great influence on the pop culture world, Hyukjin was responding to virtual reality by connecting Thousand Eyes and the manager code with human biosignals.

“Even that is so… This is really crazy… It’s human, right?”

Jamie clicked his tongue as he saw the blocks of code sheets piled up in front of him like Tetris. It was because I was stunned to see the blocks piling up as if mocking the solution I had just come up with.

Okay, let’s say the other person is the world’s best programmer and an unsung genius who built an all-around AI sensing system in 72 hours.

Even so, if dealing with it is just a mere human based on vital signs, the reaction speed of this program called Thousand Eyes was ridiculous, even excluding its own defense system.

Even Jamie wondered how this was possible.

If Gordon hadn’t said anything, he would have guessed that it was AI without question, so the opponent who destroyed Jamie’s chunk of code at once.

In addition, Jamie, knowing that dealing with Thousand Eyes was not the only Hyukjin within Oracle, thought that it was like entering the Galaxy-M24 Apple and playing a fighting game.

Although it was weak, it was because he had a chunk of his own code that he had prepared, and there was something called Kamnyang that made a name for himself until he entered the secret house as a nerd in the corner of the room.

“Yes, I am Jamie. He’s a third-rate columnist in the corner of the room, but he’s not dead yet… damn!”

Dudeuk!

Soon, Jamie’s waist, which dried up, screamed.

* * *

“How is Chloe? Is that annoying customer still there?”

“How are you? It’s already been a week as of today.”

“You’re sick of it. No, should I say great?”

“Thanks to you, I feel like dying. When can I go home?”

“It can’t be helped. There must be someone other than you who can handle it.”

“I will claim overtime pay. A lot.”

“good idea.”

Evertale headquarters B13 floor.

Hyukjin sipped his mug while looking at the control room monitor located in the center of the fan shape. Indeed, as Chloe said, the monitor in the situation room was full of messy codes.

An unknown existence that appeared without a message at some point and appeared exactly a week ago.

This small and vicious devil had quite a hard time even discovering it, and it was not enough to infiltrate quietly and secretly, so it continued the battle with Thousand Eyes with a bunch of ingenious and creative codes.

It was a slightly different development from the previous prediction that Thousand Eyes would be destroyed by its own defense system.

Hyukjin, who was worse than him, manipulated Thousand Eyes himself and showed what he saw once, but even after that, he did not calm down and persistently poked around the program.

Although it wasn’t about unlocking malicious code or stopping some functions to break Thousand Eyes, I couldn’t help but be concerned.

Just as people become sensitive when they hear the sound of mosquitoes in the room, it was inevitable that they would become sensitive to the presence of uninvited guests in the system.

Even more so, if left unattended, the system of Thousand Eyes could be discovered, and even the Akashic Records sealed as top secret by the Oracle could be reached.

It could be said that this is why Hyuk-jin entrusted Thousand Eyes to Chloe, without paying much attention to the existence of this uninvited guest.

It was because the current Oracle had something more important than extermination of this uninvited guest.

“I’m here~.”

“great job.”

When a woman with a ponytail appeared behind Hyukjin, Hyukjin swung the mug around and replied.

She was a beautiful woman with a slender body.

Wearing black tights and orange scouter-like equipment, the various equipment built into the suit emits a subtle blue light, giving off a cyberpunk atmosphere at first glance.

And as Hyukjin watched the woman in a suit bury herself in the office chair, she brought the steaming cocoa to her lips.

It would not be an exaggeration to say that if what Chloe has been wrestling with is appetizers, what Hyukjin needs to hear from her is the main dish.

“Then let the briefing begin. Mr. Hana.”

Hororok!

Hyukjin’s eyes began to shine sharply over the mug.
