consists of the most basic electrical signals, and then, through various methods, allows humans to perceive these signals.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As an electronic life form, the Zola project was initially intended to transfer consciousness into electronic devices using a device called the \"Consciousness Register.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unlike the Soul Killer from the Cyberpunk World, Zola had no assistance from the \"Yihara-Bragg\" protocol to help realize its vision.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He skipped this step entirely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was a testament to Dr. Zola’s wisdom, but it also meant he was not invincible in the network world because he had barely encountered any rivals in this realm!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To a great extent, Lille’s current state was completely equivalent in form to this electronic life form, with no so-called technological gap!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In fact, the technology Lille used was more suitable for human perception of data streams!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, Lille had rich cyberspace combat experience, even with technical guidance from network surveillance, which was more than sufficient to crush Zola!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zola’s consciousness was drawn into the ctOS data fortress, where he saw the entire scrambled data barrier he had created undergo a massive transformation—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In an instant, the world inverted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After the inversion, all the dirty data represented by the abnormal currents attached to the devices had their links disrupted!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From the powerful invasive elements corroding the fortress, the parasitic blight on ctOS turned into dust and dirt on the sturdy barrier—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yes, they were still conspicuous, but what harm could they do to a solid barrier?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And in the next moment, the barrier began to wriggle!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Much like a living organism, its structure began to change, moving ceaselessly, crushing the dust and grime bit by bit!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zola wanted to escape; it was the first time he had seen data movement on such a scale!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He lacked the corresponding technology, and in his eyes, it was as if the ctOS system had rebelled, effortlessly crushing his hack; the data streams which were useful moments ago now had turned into unreadable, chaotic currents!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He couldn’t understand what had happened!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But he couldn’t escape!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His consciousness retreated through circuit after circuit, quickly leaving the ctOS system, arriving in the tangled network of New York...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then he felt his consciousness crash into something.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Some incredibly potent information barrier had locked onto his escape route, intercepting these currents carrying information that symbolized his consciousness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And the changes in these intercepted currents and coordinates, at this moment, seemed to construct an octopus tentacle in his consciousness...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No, if perceived from this perspective, it was... it was a giant octopus!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was an octopus in the network!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zola, like an investigator strayed into a horror world, had his imagination sparked anew by Lille’s network attack, beginning to understand piecemeal what Lille was doing...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was terrifying!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lille stood atop the Little Octopus, directing it to release a data recognition sonar—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The octopus’s tentacles pulled at the data within this electronic space like marionette strings, gently tugging...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The entire space was like the calm sea surface suddenly having ripples!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The ripples screened out the coding groups Zola used to monitor the entire world, one by one red nodes appeared within Lille’s perception...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All were Hydra’s surveillance nodes planted within the network, Lille had just collected enough of Hydra’s communication frequencies!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, an unexpected event occurred:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With the slight modifications from Lille and the Little Octopus, these fluctuations would search for similar signals on the internet, then diffuse again at the tracked signal nodes, repeatedly searching—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Maybe because Hydra had planted too many surveillance nodes around the world, the fluctuations surged wave after wave with the wireless internet domains, eventually spreading across the entire internet!!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The ripples in the chaotic internet environment eventually evolved into waves, then became a tsunami!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The tsunami swept across the entire internet!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even Lille was shocked by what was happening right now on top of the octopus!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had merely constructed a sonar similar to the one used by the Dragon Hunter according to the network surveillance’s approach!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The detection sonar was only a probing program meant for targeting enemies, yet with Lille’s \"slight modifications,\" it ran repeatedly in the chaotic internet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Interfered with by various programs and computers—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When the changes reached a certain degree, they became uncontrollable and unobservable, termed as chaos.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chaos turned normally harmless programs into extremely destructive fluctuations within the network!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the same time, all of America’s internet faced obstruction and collapse due to this cyberspace chain reaction!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The data waves caused by the chain reaction also washed over the hackers in cyberspace, scattering them!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Lille rode the octopus, inherently meant for survival in the vast ocean—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In contrast, Zola was like a human who had just learned to swim, capable of easily dealing with novices in a calm lake, but utterly incapable of resisting the tidal waves!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, this wave was specifically aimed at him!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His consciousness deviated in an instant, with numerous erroneous information converting into currents exceeding safety limits, burning through his circuit boards!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the real world, one communication cable after another exploded and snapped, sparking wildly, especially those key lines monitored by Hydra...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This dramatic phenomenon spread from New York all the way to the other side of the continent, to those military fortresses!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Disconnect the link—disconn...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bang!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The servers in the bunker violently exploded as Zola blew up his own communication servers, severing external communication!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the pitch-black bunker, exposed wires sparked, illuminating the shattered screens.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The bunker fell silent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, many external servers where Zola resided also burned out, with countless memories lost with the damaged servers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To a hacker...or rather, to a digital life form like him, human cognition would fall into a massive decline.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And the human mind’s protective mechanism in such a moment was to black out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zola shut down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His accomplices frantically tried to reach him, but they couldn’t.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their phones were too emitting black smoke.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And this fluctuation had already become unstoppable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lille had invested a total of 5000CCU computing power, triggering the first great shock in the Marvel World’s network environment, bringing direct data logic from the human perspective into the network.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The tsunami swept across North America and then transmitted through the internet to various parts of the world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Due to geographical separation, a massive signal decay occurred at the network boundaries of each continent before entering their respective internet domains, changing once again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Leaving a profound mark on the internet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In some high-performance processors and systems, this date was deeply remembered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Remembered by data, becoming an anchor point.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The electrodes on Lille’s body suddenly detached, and he climbed out of the cooling tank, steaming!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So this is network warfare in the internet...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lille wiped away the coolant from his face, although the liquid would evaporate quickly even without his efforts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was just too shocked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The network technology in the Cyberpunk World was far more advanced than here, but there was one thing they lacked:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A world-wide internet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The cyberspace in the Cyberpunk World resembled neatly divided and orderly worlds.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Compared to those clear-cut LAN-constituted networks, the scale and chaos of the internet were beyond imagination...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the Cyberpunk World, Yihara and Brage first used this technology to enter cyberspace with computing power likely less than 1CCU.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He originally only intended to fish out Hydra’s signal in New York, and if it spread to North America, all the better; now, what he got was indeed caught.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was no need for him to handle it; the network directly collapsed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lille had considered that combat in the network environment of 2076 might differ from the internet environment...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But such chaos could not be foreseen or controlled; he seemed to have opened a can of worms.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before he could continue his thought, his nose caught a pungent smell—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bang bang.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Boss! Boss! Can I go in to put out the fire?!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This voice sounded like that boy Christopher...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lille looked up sharply to see the room filled with black smoke and flaming machines!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two octopus arms behind him unplugged the fire extinguishers and started putting out the fire furiously—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Get in here! Don’t use water!!!\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1362,"2026-06-03T12:33:12.909Z","2026-06-03T12:33:19.802Z",1,"novelbin.me","3f699e3fe150ff8d3c5e976605d53732bcba9997581a57fedf14704a07997af4","cyberpunk-cross-dimensional-science-and-engineer-chapter-280","cyberpunk-cross-dimensional-science-and-engineer-chapter-278",1068,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fcyberpunk-cross-dimensional-science-and-engineer-cover.jpg"]
