The elevator went straight to the basent, bypassing the laboratory and plantation, and arrived directly at the bottom supercomputer center.
The supercomputer center is where the artificial intelligence Nuwa is located and stores all the experintal data of the Xiao Group, including various financial data. Many simulation experints are also completed here at the supercomputer center.
So simulation calculations are extrely complex and cannot be handled by ordinary computers, such as the Big Bang model of the universe and global climate change models. The amount of computation required here is astonishing, and so experintal projects are similarly demanding.
There is only one passageway to the core of Nuwa, and it’s the only one. Last ti, Lin Tian walked through it and was surprisingly detected by Nuwa’s intelligence as a non-living entity, which caused a brief panic.
The Xiao sisters passed through the security check one after the other, leaving Lin Tian the last one. He hesitated for a mont and walked in. Scanning, gait detection, various security checks, and Lin Tian astonishingly passed through the security channel safely without Nuwa sounding any alarms.
That can’t be right; Nuwa is artificial intelligence, learning every day and only getting smarter, so it couldn’t possibly make a mistake.
Xiao Manxue noticed Lin Tian’s doubts and explained, "I inputted data regarding Ancient Martial Artists. Nuwa now regards you as one who has practiced special cultivation techniques, preventing the previous error from occurring again."
Lin Tian found it amusing internally; Nuwa hadn’t made a mistake last ti—the zombie is an entirely different kind of life form from humans, and Nuwa naturally can’t detect it.
However, since Xiao Manxue fixed this "bug," Lin Tian needn’t trouble himself with explanations.
Finally ca iris and fingerprint recognition. The security door opened, leading into Nuwa’s core. Of course, this is the control room; the servers are located elsewhere.
"Network tracing Liu Wenxing is an expert; I’m connecting to let you et," Xiao Manxue indicated for Lin Tian to step to the screen, saying.
Speaking of Liu Wenxing, he’s been studying abroad for a while. After helping with so information about Holy Spirit Town last ti, Lin Tian hadn’t contacted him since.
"Nuwa, connect with Liu Wenxing," Xiao Manxue ordered.
A video interface popped up on the screen, similar to a usual video chat, only the screen here was larger and clearer. Initially, there was no one in the view, but a few minutes later, a person holding a book appeared on the screen.
"Liu Wenxing, you’re quite diligent," Lin Tian laughed upon seeing the person on the screen.
Liu Wenxing was visibly stunned for a mont and then, very pleasantly surprised, said, "Brother Tian, is that you? Wait, just now Nuwa called , aning you’re at the supercomputer center!"
"Yeah, I’m right here at Nuwa’s core—why so excited?" Lin Tian asked, puzzled.
"Nuwa’s core, Brother Tian, that’s a supercomputer center. To people like us, it’s like a Divine Artifact; I’ve never been to Nuwa’s core." Liu Wenxing tossed aside his book, unable to contain his excitent.
Lin Tian found it amusing but sowhat understood Liu Wenxing’s feelings, much like how an Ancient Martial Artist would react upon encountering a fine weapon: "Okay, Nuwa is an enterprise-level supercomputer. If you had access to Tianhe, wouldn’t you be euphorically faint?"
"Supercomputer Tianhe is a national treasure, super Divine Artifact level. Of course, once a photonic computer or even a quantum computer is developed, that will be a different story," Liu Wenxing passionately elaborated on computers.
"Oh, right, did you seek out for sothing, Brother Tian? Otherwise, you wouldn’t be at Nuwa’s supercomputer center," Liu Wenxing finally asked after so high-spirited discourse.
Lin Tian nodded, connecting his phone to the computer, and said to Nuwa, "Wenxing, Nuwa, I have a few anonymous audio files on my phone, and I want to trace who sent them."
"Anonymous ssages?" Liu Wenxing repeated, then said, "Tracing the origin of the information shouldn’t be too difficult, but I suspect that what we find might be insignificant. If the person intentionally hid their identity, they could easily use any computer, hack soone else’s computer, or even use any mobile phone to send the ssage."
"With Nuwa’s processing speed, I can easily trace the final IP address of these anonymous ssages. However, the outco might be as I’ve said—not very optimistic," Liu Wenxing shrugged, sowhat helpless.
"Just trace it, and we’ll talk after we get the results," Lin Tian was unconcerned. He understood Liu Wenxing’s point: if it were so easy to catch the person on the other end of the network, there wouldn’t be so many hackers in this world.
"I need President Xiao’s authorization to use Nuwa’s resources," Liu Wenxing stated.
Before Lin Tian could respond, Xiao Manxue had already said, "Nuwa, authorize."
"Authorization confird," Nuwa quickly replied.
With Xiao Manxue’s authorization, Liu Wenxing logged into the supercomputer center on the other end and began computing and deciphering using Nuwa’s processing speed.
"Hmm..." Liu Wenxing suddenly expressed surprise, looking very unexpected: "I found it so easily; I thought I’d have to put in so effort."
"What’s going on?" Lin Tian, not being a computer expert, didn’t understand what Liu Wenxing ant.
"I can assure you the person sending you ssages is definitely not a computer expert. He simply found a computer to send the ssages and didn’t even hide the IP address."
"Let see, the location of the computer’s IP address... the back street of Xikou City High School... Sky Fox Internet Cafe?" Liu Wenxing murmured to himself in surprise and confusion after reading the address, "We’re familiar with that street at the back, but there isn’t an internet cafe there."
Lin Tian frowned, not because there may or may not be an internet cafe, but because the anonymous person turned out to be near Xikou City.
"I’ve been to the back street too, and I rember there isn’t an internet cafe there," Xiao Manxuan remarked, puzzled.
Lin Tian shook his head, explaining, "We left school, no—accurately, since the start of the college entrance exam sprint period, we haven’t been to the back street. In several months, it’s more than possible for a new internet cafe to have opened."
"That’s true," Liu Wenxing and Xiao Manxuan realized.
"Internet cafes nowadays have real-na registration with ID cards. Can we find out who logged on to that computer?" Xiao Manxuan suddenly thought of a good idea and suggested.
"Internet cafes indeed enforce real-na registration now. However, even large, well-regulated internet cafes can’t fully comply, let alone the smaller ones. If I were not a top hacker and didn’t want to reveal my identity, I’d definitely go to one where an ID card wasn’t required," Liu Wenxing shook his head, not optimistic about the suggestion.
Suddenly, Nuwa said, "I checked this internet cafe earlier, and indeed, as Liu Wenxing said, so computers don’t need identification to log in. However..."
"However, what?" Lin Tian and the others asked in unison, not expecting Nuwa to coordinate so well. As expected of advanced intelligence.
"However, I discovered that the surveillance caras of this internet cafe are connected to the internet," Nuwa replied.
