Using a program called the \"Black Wall Gateway\" to connect herself to the Black Wall, then hack into the enemy, allowing the Black Wall to attack the target.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So, in cyberspace, nuclear bombs used the Black Wall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This program, due to its need to touch the Black Wall, and because Lark obtained it from the old internet beyond the Black Wall, had led her brain to be eroded by AI, creating a second personality, like cyberpsychosis.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This AI, compared to the human hackers of this era, had unparalleled network capabilities!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as she lost control, the AI started following its thoughts, frantically fleeing through the circuits within the facility, and directly locating the giant robot in the center of the room!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The AI entered the robot, taking control as easily as a human playing with a doll.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But when two humans fight over the same doll, it becomes evident who’s stronger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The AI discovered it had been interfered with during hacking...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No, not interfered, kicked out!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lark raised her head to see Lille’s head hanging limply while the robot began to move.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lille’s voice came from within:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Lille: The Little Beidou plan, military technology hopes to control AI for network work, military operations, and engineering activities using AI collaboration.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Lille: This robot is called Hellhound, a military technology prototype, never seen in public.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Lille: It’s a prototype robot used for engineering collaboration in the Little Beidou plan, equipped with indestructible single molecule armor and a machine collaboration subsystem for AI co-working.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Lille: This is a robot designed for AI.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everything Lille said struck heavily in Lark’s heart, as well as the AI within her, completely overturning the mindset of this half-baked AI:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Right! This robot was designed for AI, why could you kick out the AI and control this robot?!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A black-red signal indicator flickered in Lark’s eyes...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Lille: This body is much more useful, and the signals from the Black Wall can’t penetrate here.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bang!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Standing on four legs, Lille controlled the Hellhound to rise and approach the core lab door of the Little Beidou project.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, in cyberspace, Lark saw a guy with octopus arms completely locking onto her!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was exactly like the Digital Soul demonstrated by Arasaka... just the same!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Buzz—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The red cutting laser began operating, and the Hellhound started slicing the door open.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Lille: It seems the company still can’t change its ways. According to the plan, you should have connected directly to the Black Wall and wiped me out, right?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Lille: But military technology wanted more...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Lille: This is the core of the Little Beidou plan, a prototype AI matrix capable of controlling AI.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Lille: This thing could save your life.
