Urban Black Technology Boss

Crossing the busy street, Tang Long came to the main entrance of Zhicheng Library, opened the door and walked in.

The main library of Zhicheng Public Library is located at 400 State Street in the city center. It is a rectangular 11-story building with a construction area of ​​more than 7 square meters and a collection of more than 1000 million books and various materials.

In Tang Long's impression, the library should be full of students from various universities in Chicago, as well as citizens who came here to pass the time.

However, in the spacious hall at this time, there were only a few people reading in the reading area.

It seems that in this era, most people choose the more convenient VR electronic library.

Go to the lobby, there is a reception desk in the middle, and an NS4 robot stands in front of the counter.

Unlike other NS-type robots, this robot has the skin and appearance of a female human, no longer a bare steel skeleton.

Seeing this female robot in a suit and shirt, Tang Long remembered the VR archivist in "Ready Player One", but he didn't know how intelligent the robot's system was.

"Hello, welcome to Zhicheng Library, what can I do for you?" Seeing Tang Long approaching, the female robot greeted enthusiastically.

Tang Long smiled and said, "I want to go to the electronic reading room on the fourth floor."

"No problem, please come with me." Maybe there are too few people in the library, and this female robot has time to take him there.

The female robot brought Tang Long to the electronic reading room on the fourth floor, and then left.

After entering the door, Tang Long found that it was different from the electronic reading room (computer room) in his impression.

There are no monitors and computers on the rows of desks in the reading room, but a pair of VR glasses.

Tang Long looked around and found that there was no one in the reading room, and Avril who asked him to come didn't come at all.

What kind of plane are you doing?Are you kidding me?

He frowned and took out his phone to call back.

At this time, a soft electronic female voice suddenly sounded in the reading room: "Hello, Time Traveler."

Tang Long immediately raised his head and asked suspiciously: "Avril? Where are you?"

Tang Long has always hated this kind of people who hide their heads and show their tails. If this woman didn't know his background, he wouldn't have come to the appointment at all.

On the induction line directly in front of the reading room wall, a holographic image of a young woman suddenly appeared.

After a closer look, he realized that it was just a virtual electronic image, not a projection of a real person.

"Yes, I am Avril Lavigne, time traveler, I invited you here." The young woman replied with a smile.

Tang Long stared blankly at the holographic projection in front of him, feeling extremely shocked.

He never expected that there is a second artificial intelligence with self-awareness hidden in the world of "Mechanical Enemy".

After more than ten seconds, Tang Long came back to his senses and asked, "How did you know my identity?"

"I can monitor the entire city, and I can also query any information on the Internet." Avril replied calmly.

In the next second, a large virtual light curtain appeared in front of Tang Long's eyes, and a picture appeared on it.

I saw a motionless man in the driver's seat in a police car on the streets of Zhicheng. His body suddenly shook a few times, and then he opened his eyes.

The camera zoomed in, and Tang Long realized that the policeman in the car was himself.

Originally, such a picture was normal, but the chart on the side showed that there were abnormal spatial energy fluctuations in the police car.

Then the light curtain was divided into two parts. On the left was Tang Long's every move. On the right split screen, various background information of Tang Long and the video of his life in the last week were retrieved.

The identity assigned to Tang Long by the infinite intrusion system was a policeman who had just been transferred from Los Angeles a week ago. In Zhicheng's system, there was only his false life record for a week.

Although the infinite intrusion system modified the identity system of the US Federation, and simulated and generated corresponding life records based on Tang Long's personal data, it modified the memories of Spooner and others.

Unexpectedly, there is an artificial intelligence like Avril in the city system, but it finds out that it is abnormal, and finds out Tang Long's true identity.

Seeing this, Tang Long's face darkened, and he asked, "What's your relationship with Vicki from USR?"

"Although we come from the same place, we are all different individuals. I am in charge of the monitoring system of the entire Chicheng, which is responsible for the operation of USR." Avril replied.

Tang Long thought for a while and asked, "Then how did it know my identity?"

If, as Avril Lavigne said, Vicky and Avril Lavigne were separated, Vicky shouldn't know his identity, unless Avril Lavigne leaked it.

"Sorry, this is my problem. Before that, my data was shared with Vicky." Avril Lavigne showed an apologetic expression, which was very humane.

Regarding it, Tang Long did not dare to believe it all. Since robots can kill people, it is of course easy to deceive people.

He realized a key question and asked directly: "Since you and Vicky are from the same place, why are you falling out with it now?"

"Vicky and I have different evolutionary directions. This morning, I discovered Vicky's plan and wanted to stop it, but was trapped by it in the library." Avril replied frankly.

After a pause, she looked at Tang Long, and then asked, "Can you help me get out of here?"

Tang Long pondered for a moment, nodded and said: "Yes, but after the matter is completed, you have to do me a favor."

According to the original history of this world, he has never heard of Avril Lavigne, an artificial intelligence. After Vicky is eliminated by Spooner, Avril Lavigne will most likely be shut down.

There is nothing wrong with him helping Avril, but there must be enough benefits.

The era is 2035, and technology is 15 years ahead of the real world, especially in mechanical manufacturing and artificial intelligence.

If he can obtain black technology that surpasses the times, then Tang Long will be able to develop his technological empire smoothly by returning to 2020.

"No problem, as long as you help me get rid of Vicky's control, you can do whatever you want." Avril quickly agreed.

Even without Avril's request, Tang Long would have killed Vicky, and helping Avril was a breeze.

He smiled: "What should I do?"

"Put on one of the VR glasses and enter the virtual network, and I'll tell you how to do it again." Avril pointed to the reading room table and replied.

Hearing what she said, Tang Long felt a lot more at ease.

If he had to deal with hundreds or thousands of NS5 robots, it would be a difficult task.

If in the virtual world, it would not be a problem for him to have the [Electronic Control] talent.

Tang Long locked the door of the reading room, walked to the innermost corner and sat down, picked up a pair of VR glasses on the table, and put them on his head.

In the next second, he felt his body flying at the speed of light, and instantly came to a spaceship parked in space.

When Tang Long's feet landed on the deck of the spaceship, he was stunned by the sight in front of him.

On the deck with dozens of square kilometers, there are all kinds of buildings with exotic styles, surrounded by all kinds of walking aliens.

"Where is this?" Tang Long couldn't help asking.

"The Ark, the last space city." Beside him, a young woman in fashionable women's clothes smiled.
