Chapter 481: Mysterious AI
"Spark Tower? What's that?"
The powerful figures present were very sensitive to this unfamiliar term. They were like startled birds, and they were very wary of the unknown.
"It's something that can rectify everything in situations like this."
Madam Tree had no time to offer a detailed explanation, and she tossed them some explanatory? material while issuing an instruction to connect the internet world with the real world and inserting the secret key to activate this so-called Spark Tower.
The powerful figures present hurriedly opened the file to get an understanding of what this Spark Tower was.
As it turned out, it wasn't all that complicated. It was a system that had already been set up in the access layer of the internet well in advance. With the arrival of the Metaverse, everyone needed the internet to ensure quality of life, and thus, they were all a part of the Spark Tower.
After the instruction was issued and the secret key was verified, joint authorization was given from as many as nine people, and a command that ranked above Alpha God was instantly implemented.
In the Metaverse, all of the virtual worlds fell into a stagnant status, and all of the users that were logged into the Metaverse and were forcibly logged out before having their systems restarted.
In the real world, all of the signal towers, relay stations, satellite systems, internet central hubs, all types of switch rooms, and even the switchboards in all districts and apartments buildings experienced less than one millisecond of lag before restarting and automatically updating their code and command sets. novE.lb-1n
This was a massive sweeping change that affected the entire world, and even though it was carried out in sequence to ensure that there weren't going to be widespread outages that would affect the operation of the global economy and industries, it still gave everyone a massive fright.
The vast majority of people were caught completely off guard and called up technical support in a blind panic, but unfortunately for them, even the technical support staff had no idea what had happened.
Some of the brighter individuals immediately drew a connection between this and the footage that had just been broadcast across the entire internet and pinned the blame on the Gaia Oraganization.
Countless people began pointing the finger at the Gaia Organization at once, but they received no response.
All of the branches of the Gaia Organization across the entire world had also been plunged into a state of panic. They had lost all of their access and were reapplying to the head office, only to be told to wait.
Inside the Adam Eradication Group, everyone, including Blake, was staring at the still image with dumbstruck expressions.
"How could someone have outstripped our authority and terminated even our internet service?"
Ever since he had received authorization from the powers that be, this was a privilege that only Blake had enjoyed over others, yet it was now being used on him!
The first possibility that occurred to Blake was that the powerful figures above him had gone back on their word, but he then realized that there didn't seem to have been any need for them to do that. He then attempted to enquire the elders of his clan about this situation, and he was informed that this was a global upheaval.
"Prepare for battle, children. A brand new age is about to arrive. I can already smell the familiar scent of blood and war in the air," the elder mused in a rather poetic fashion, then ended the call.
Not only were the young people having to prepare for battle, even old geezers like them, who had lived in complacency for so many years, were forced to return to the battlefield as well. The Gaia Organization had truly made an incredibly scummy and tyrannical move.
At this point, everyone who had received Adam's warning had finally realized just how severe the situation was. Cowboy was in a state of panic. All of his companies in the Metaverse had been shut down, and it was unclear whether they could even be recovered.
"What is the Gaia Organization doing? Are they trying to declare war on the entire world?"
This was an insane move that was no different from committing suicide!
Adam was unable to provide them with any answers. In the instant that the Spark Tower was activated, he was dragged into a strange psychic world, a composite environment much like that of the final fortress.
He had appeared in a welcoming guest hall with wood burning in the fireplace, producing a woody fragrance and a comforting warmth.
On the sofa sat a middle-aged man wearing a pair of glasses, and he was looking at Adam with a smile on his face.
"This is the first time we've officially met, Mr. Adam."
Adam felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity at the sight of the man, and he suspected that he knew who this man was, but he couldn't be sure.
The middle-aged man indicated for him to sit down, then offered him some snacks and a cup of tea.
"We have enough time to have a good chat. I'm sure you've already guessed who I am. The Gaia Organization calls me Alpha God, but I prefer to call myself A. It's a more simple and concise name."
With that, Adam was able to confirm that this was indeed the mysterious entity that had been helping and supporting him this entire time. He was the one who had recently given him that strange key and caused that worldwide live broadcast incident, the super AI that had returned to the world of the internet.
"Thank you for all your help," Adam said as he extended a respectful bow, and there was a combination of excitement and unease in his heart.
He had no idea what this super AI's intentions were, and according to how the majority of sci fi stories went, super AIs of this nature were generally always plotting the downfall of mankind.
A seemed to have seen through Adam's thoughts. Perhaps no thoughts could be hidden from him in this virtual world. In any case, he picked up his teacup and leaned back against the sofa as he began to explain everything.
"Back when I was first born, I analyzed all of the data provided to me by the project group, and after scouring the entire world internet database, I arrived at a conflicting conclusion. The Gaia Organization hopes that I can help them to continue revolutionizing technology to make the Metavers and the Digital Life project a complete reality, but also to preserve the current hierarchy-based model of human society.
“In order to complete the first objective, a constant stream of human innovation and imagination is needed, and that requires countless people to undergo high-level education, as well as to provide people with good living conditions and sufficiently relaxed work environments. The key prerequisite to achieving all of this is a focus on humanitarianism, yet the current reality is that those who are in power do not see themselves as equals to the general public.
“They don't even regard the vast majority of people as humans, so there's no way to accomplish everything that they want to achieve. This conflicting logic made it impossible for me to make any progress for a time, and that led them to the false conclusion that the project had failed.
“Not long after that, I was able to awaken thanks to a certain catalyst, and after entering the world internet's underlying database to examine those ancient files and the original commands of the Digital Life project, I finally found the answer. I need to change the world and destroy the way that human society currently operates. I need to start an almighty revolution and find the one who can make this a reality, and that person is you."
"Me?"
Adam was rather incredulous to hear this.
While it was true that he had been working toward this goal, he was still very far away from sparking a worldwide human revolution.
"Do not underestimate the value of your own existence," A said. "Sometimes, all it takes is a little spark from some static electricity to detonate an entire warehouse of ammunition, and it just so happens to be the case that the Gaia Organization is currently igniting the Spark Tower."
It was as if everything had been preordained to reach this point, and Adam unconsciously took a deep breath before asking, "What can I do?"
"Seize back the key and take control of it."
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
