Mysteries: Arcana Wars

Chapter 93 Modernization

In the middle of the night, Leonard and Klein huddled in front of the computer waiting for the next message.

After his last chance encounter with Scott, Klein had the idea of ​​doing something modern, such as making a fully automatic online wishing machine.

So that day, he and Leonard set up a website in the apartment.

The web page interface is very simple, a bit like the common search engines in the Sixth Age, but the text on it only has the headline "Fully Automatic Wishing Machine" and a string of slogans: "Insert two coins and get three of your wishes fulfilled."

Below the billboard, there are three input boxes, each with a "Make Wish Come True" button behind it. Below the three rows of input boxes is a big "Insert Coin". Although all input content will be transmitted to Klein, only after inserting the coin and clicking "Make Wish Come True" will the content be actually accumulated and marked, and then realized.

This is the "rule" that every sealed object has, and the Void Wishing Machine is no exception.

Based on his experience in the past two days after waking up, Klein set the price of "coin insertion" to two Loen gold pounds in advance.

Although it would be safer if it were set as virtual currency, Klein thought, but the price was too high...

In the sixth era of development, the confusing Loen currency system underwent a thorough reform after entering the information age, and was finally willing to adopt the centesimal system to replace the original mess. The "Loen Gold Pound" was still retained as a monetary unit, which could be exchanged for one hundred Loen Pennies. However, due to the rise in gold prices and currency inflation, the coin representing a "Loen Gold List" was no longer made of gold, but was cast with metals of equal value as in the old days.

The gold pound was no longer gold, and Klein felt a little regretful. Only the two gold coins with star patterns in his hand could make him feel a little familiar from the Fifth Epoch.

The trading account made Klein feel entangled for a while. The account under the name of "Klein Moretti" must not be used. "Merlin Hermes" was in a state where he had been cheated of all his underwear. He only had a temporary identity card, and his bank account had been transferred. As for those anonymous accounts, most of the reliable ones were banks in the black market. Klein didn't want to enter the dungeon so early.

In the end, it was Leonard who solved the problem. He wrote down several anonymous black market accounts from more than 300 years ago based on his memory, and then asked Klein to divine one by one. Finally, he found an account that could still be used.

This black market bank has been able to survive for more than 300 years in the information age, so it should be considered relatively reliable. The account is empty, so it must have been a long time since anyone used it. The last owner died in a gang fight many years ago.

According to Leonard, this was an anonymous account he encountered during a mission. The captured prisoners transferred money to this account to trade in Beyonder characteristics and other aspects on the black market. Today, more than three hundred years later, the account is already empty. It is estimated that this small Beyonder association has been erased in the long river of history.

"An account opened more than 300 years ago, a vanished Beyonder association, a bank from the underground city's black market, an anonymous account... Putting these together, it should be difficult to find evidence of the account from the physical information."

Leonard pondered.

"But the information network is the territory of the Church of the God of Steam and Machinery. I strongly suspect that they have perfect extraordinary means in this regard. I don't know much about this technology, but I suggest that you also take extraordinary measures in terms of computers."

According to the history textbooks he had learned, when the [Sky Curtain War] broke out, the Sixth Epoch had just entered the information age for more than a hundred years. It would have been difficult for it to develop slowly and painstakingly to the level before Klein traveled through time - this was already lightning fast from the perspective of the people of the Sixth Epoch.

Among them, the Steam Church has many talented people and is the first church to study the information network. With their strong professionalism as a true church, Leonard believes that the God of Steam and Machinery now has some control over the network world, and the Steam Church also has terrible combat power in the extraordinary struggle on the network.

Klein, who has been baptized by various science fiction movies, agrees with this.

He originally planned to put all the important data in an apartment with extraordinary silence, and let the secret doll transfer the hard disk in time. But this could not prevent physical intrusion into the server, so he showed his good qualities as a programmer and made the server address and router into an extreme nesting doll.

But Leonard's words still made Klein a little worried. After thinking about it, Klein simply transformed himself into a hardware engineer and used gray fog to condense some computer components to replace the original ones. He then simply spent a lot of money to drag out several key historical projections, let the secret puppets hang batteries, drag the small server chassis, and run around Backlund every night, hijacking the network to randomly draw lucky passers-by to create and maintain the image of an online legend.

In this way, even if the signal location is found, it doesn’t matter. Once the historical projection is dispersed, there will be nothing.

The main feature is convenience and practicality.

Klein even considerately placed a small void match in the server.

The normal silence range of the matchstick is extremely small, barely enough to cover the mini server, but in special circumstances, the secret doll can set the server on fire.

Since the computer hardware technology in the Sixth Epoch was somewhat different from that in the Old Age, Klein gave up the idea of ​​dragging over historical projections from the Old Age.

Now the disadvantages of this method are also obvious. The high consumption and low endurance of the historical projection mean that Klein can only go out for fifteen minutes at a time at night.

But it was enough, because two days after sneaking off the server, Klein received a message from Scott on the site.

This not only made Klein and the others marvel at the rapid spread of online legends, but also confirmed that the Church of Steam did have a certain degree of control over the Internet, especially its special attention to online legends.

Being able to pay attention to information is one thing; being able to strike back effectively is another.

The Internet does provide convenience for many gray and black organizations, but in the extraordinary world, it does not mean that they must rely on the Internet.

But what Klein and the others didn't know was that the fully automatic wishing machine website was not discovered by Scott himself, but by the internet ghost Kewawu who surfed the Internet intensively every day, and then pushed to Scott as a joke.

So after finally walking out of the police station in the middle of the night, Klein immediately took Leonard to the apartment to check the news. The bank robbery in the morning had kept the two busy all day, and now they were excited because of the intelligence.

Scott sent a huge file, which contained all the files related to the [Glorious Golden Cup] from official institutions such as the Church of Evernight, MI9, and the Harvest Church Museum. It showed in detail how this sealed object was lost and how it was recovered after changing its appearance and name.

This is a seal that can transform itself, and the tidied signboard clearly shows its appearance in different periods.

When the Church of Evernight first took in the [Glorious Golden Cup], it was named...

"It's the [Skyscraper Holy Grail]! I should have thought of it earlier! I was the one who contained the [Skyscraper Holy Grail]! Everything is connected now!!"

Leonard slammed the table and stood up.

"This is... the holy weapon of the Motian Cult!"
