Chapter 1321: Potential Threat

"There have been several robot disappearance cases recently; it's very likely the other side did it."

Bai Hanbing, based on the intelligence analysis, told Yang Shuhan.

Blue Sky City is an industrialized city with a huge number of robots; trying to find a suspicious target among countless robots is extremely difficult.

"Increase the robots' self‑inspection frequency; isolate them immediately upon detecting any anomaly."

"The opponent is a human transformed from an Intelligent Body and is very familiar with robots."

"So we need to be even more cautious."

"Bingbing, go discuss with the city lord, activate the emergency protocol, strictly control the flow of nutrient solution and food supplies; we must cut off his food source."

"Also, ask Yunxiao for assistance; he too transformed from an Intelligent Body and should be very familiar with the opponent."

Bai Hanbing nodded.

"Alright, I'll go handle it right away."

She reached out and summoned a mobile support robot; the robot, resembling a massage chair, enveloped Bai Hanbing, then walked outward while shifting from standing to reclining, and swiftly raced out of the building toward the city lord's residence.

By the time Bai Hanbing arrived at the city lord's residence, she had already communicated the matter with Ma Yilong over the network.

After meeting, the two signed the orders, and Bai Hanbing immediately flew off toward Yunxiao's location.

This was a massive underground warehouse storing a large quantity of computational entities.

When Bai Hanbing arrived, Yunxiao had already processed ten percent of the Intelligent Bodies.

In the warehouse, dozens of new humans had already been created.

Bai Hanbing's sudden arrival made the flustered Yunxiao a bit surprised.

"Miss Bai, is there something urgent?"

No urgent matter; he doesn't receive visitors, he's very busy.

Bai Hanbing didn't waste words and went straight to the point.

"We haven't located the opponent yet; we hope you can take action."

Take action? Yunxiao frowned; he really didn't have much time to waste.

Moreover, the information relayed from the Yang Family suggests the opponent is likely Beta.

That Intelligent Body that created mechanical catastrophes has been developing in secret for years and even propelled five humans to become mist creatures.

He's not a simple person; he doesn't know how many methods the opponent still has.

Anyway, there should be many.

Thus, his most important task right now should be eliminating the hidden danger.

Rather than wasting time playing cat‑and‑mouse with the opponent.

"I'll first discuss this with the family head; the matter isn't as simple as you think."

After saying that, he ignored Bai Hanbing and walked off toward a secret room.

Left standing aside, Bai Hanbing felt a bit angry; it was very disrespectful.

But since Yunxiao said he would consult the Yang Family, she didn't dare say more.

In the secret room, Yunxiao transmitted the information, and a few minutes later, Yang Jiuchen's response arrived.

"Since you think the Intelligent Bodies are the most critical now, proceed according to your plan; let Beta handle it themselves."

Yunxiao felt they should be prepared, so he requested a full copy of all intelligence on Beta, in case he has to act.

Yang Jiuchen didn't hesitate and quickly sent over the intelligence, which also included the opponent's bodily data.

When Yunxiao saw the latest Beta body data report sent by the Yang Family, a shiver ran through him.

There is a problem, a huge problem: that body can mutate so drastically because it possesses a super‑simulation gene technology that lets every cell, even the bones, slide freely and reshape into any form.

This gene technology is somewhat like nanotechnology.

But it's not a robot; it's a kind of bacterium or a super cell.

It has a powerful contaminating ability.

In other words, Beta itself is a potent biochemical virus.

Only its transmission speed is extremely slow.

It takes months, even years, to fully convert the entire body.

Because of its super‑simulation ability, infected individuals show no abnormal symptoms throughout the process.

Until the conversion completes, they become a puppet.

Yang Jiuchen also comforted Yunxiao.

"You all have no issues; we've all been examined."

Yunxiao, however, revealed something that terrified him immensely.

"But what if a part of his flesh also slipped through?"

Yang Jiuchen's scalp tightened.

"You mean he didn't reincarnate directly from data, but did so through a portion of his own flesh?"

"How could that be possible?"

Yunxiao offered a possibility.

"Human DNA possesses a powerful data capability."

"Perhaps he temporarily stored massive amounts of data in his remaining flesh, then used my cultivation chamber and upload‑download technology to gradually replicate himself into a new body."

"I'll immediately have people transmit all detection, defense, and eradication methods to you; have Yang Shuhan arrange for immediate replication."

"From here, I'll dispatch a new spacecraft at once, carrying the relevant weapons and equipment."

"Make sure to hold Beta down."

Yunxiao quickly finished communicating with Yang Jiuchen, then took the data and left the secret room.

After seeing Bai Hanbing, he immediately handed the data to Bai Hanbing.

"Inside is what you need; when you go back, immediately give it to Yang Shuhan, she will know what to do."

At this point, the Yang Family's order should have already reached Yang Shuhan.

After Bai Hanbing left, Yunxiao paused the cultivation work, went in alone, and conducted a thorough inspection of the equipment.

Finally, in a hidden corner of the materials cabin, a walnut-sized piece of flesh was discovered.

Won the bid.

Yunxiao's cold sweat came out all at once.

Great Yin is treacherous, indeed an old sly person.

Specially bred, it exists for war, and indeed it's not easy to deal with at all.

After cleaning the cultivation chamber once, Yunxiao finally felt relieved.

"These dozens of people probably haven't been controlled by Beta yet, right?"

Probably yes, the other side's cellular infection speed is that slow.

Then let's use it for now; once Yang Shuhan's side replicates the special medicine, we'll make it clear.

Beta here has also been modified, a few small robots.

Because we need to bind the IoT Crystal Element, the small robots' movements are restricted.

One IoT Crystal Element can only operate within a specific area.

After reaching another area, we need to immediately switch the IoT Crystal Element.

The whole operation must be low-key and not attract too much attention.

Because each IoT Crystal Element has identity data; for example, if you are a domestic robot, the surrounding machines will automatically compare, detect any discrepancy, and automatically report it.

Although Beta modified and disguised him, it only fools simple-minded robots.

If seen by the Term: Intelligent Body, it will be exposed immediately.
