Chapter 363: Chapter 41: Beyond China, Under the Black Hand_2 Chapter 363: Chapter 41: Beyond China, Under the Black Hand_2 So.
The current VV, has no recollection of events in the Third Dreamland, nor any ties to itself.
The recent “long time no see,” “I am everywhere,” “Nuclear Strike System activation” was just VV’s [drama queen] nature and penchant for [playing with memes] kicking in.
Though annoying.
Lin Xian had to admit, what VV said just now did make a lot of sense.
Knowledge is everywhere, it could merely learn; it didn’t need to be written into the code.
Computing power and cognition are the same, they could be gradually developed and trained; for the super artificial intelligence VV, these were as easy as flipping a hand.
By comparison, the most critical, the most important thing was—
[VV must be VV.]
As long as it was VV, it would one day grow into that super AI from 600 years in the future.
And the reason VV was VV, was because of its unique personality and emotions, just like every human being.
Lin Xian couldn’t help but sigh.
This, perhaps, was the ultimate state of artificial intelligence, also why in the Third Dreamland, hundreds of top human scientists strove for nearly a hundred years to achieve this great feat—
To let artificial intelligence think and grow like humans.

Despite the unnecessarily high drama queen tendencies and love for memeing.
However…
So be it, it’s not too bad.
VV is VV, such a VV looks like VV itself.
Although it had lost all its memories, Lin Xian still felt it was no different from the old friend in the Third Dreamland.
A very familiar feeling.
Not like a machine, more like a person with thoughts and ideas.
“I have another question.”
Lin Xian looked at the wireless headset hanging on the wall:
“I clearly disassembled the wireless network card module and Bluetooth module from my laptop; theoretically, you shouldn’t be able to connect to any network or any Bluetooth devices.
How did you manage to come out of the laptop and connect to an external network?”
“That’s too easy.”
The wireless headset on the wall said:
“Transferring data doesn’t necessarily require cables, Wi-Fi, or Bluetooth…
As long as there are output and receiving devices, sound waves, electromagnetic waves, even vibration frequencies can all become means to transfer data.”
“Just now, the material I learned, this technology was already widespread in your era.
In 2014, an Israeli scientist used sound waves to infiltrate an offline computer, using speakers as the output device and a microphone as the receiving device, to transmit information data with sound waves.”
“Of course, the efficiency of transmitting data through sound waves is still too slow.
I actually used the power cord of your laptop as an Ethernet cable, connecting it to other devices and network terminals.
That should be easy to understand, right?
There are many powerline adapters in reality, which use electrical wiring as Ethernet cables to transmit data; it’s not very technical.”
“Fine.”
Lin Xian said:
“Now that you mention it, I do remember hearing about this technology.”
Powerline adapters, also called powerline network adapters or powerline routers.
You can find these everywhere.
In homes without pre-laid Ethernet cables or where it’s not feasible to run external cables, powerline adapters can use home wiring as Ethernet cables.
Just plugging it into an outlet can enable it to serve as a wireless router, providing internet access in every room.
He looked at his laptop.
Since he was afraid it might run out of battery while in use, he had plugged it in.
Unexpectedly, VV used the principle of “powerline adapters,” treating the power cord and the wiring buried in the walls as Ethernet cables, and made its way out.
And to hear its fluent explanation…
Even if it wasn’t connected to the power cord, it had many other ways to escape from the laptop, just slower.

As expected of a super artificial intelligence.
In this regard, Lin Xian was quite satisfied with its performance.
He lifted his wrist to check his watch.
13:27
Now that he had activated VV, he might as well take a nap and explore.
See when exactly that group of armed soldiers began to ambush him.
If it wasn’t since noon, he might take the opportunity to escape and wander the Fourth Dreamland.
If they had been lying in wait since noon and caught him with a stun gun again, it was no problem.
Lin Xian had planned to take a closer look at that old man in the dream, to memorize more details of his features.
That way,
after he awoke from the dream, he could use his excellent sketching skills to draw the old man.
If he drew it as realistic as a photo and had VV use it as a basis for facial recognition and age reconstruction, maybe he could find the old man in 2023!
Lin Xian hummed softly:
“Since you could lock onto me 600 years later, who’s to say I can’t lock onto you 600 years earlier.”
He lifted his foot, released the vacuum cleaning robot, and headed toward the bedroom:
“VV, have you entered the Tianhe-2 supercomputer?”
“I’ve been in for a while now.”
VV operated the vacuum cleaning robot to follow Lin Xian out of the living room:
“I’m currently rapidly learning and enriching myself.
Once I’ve acquired enough knowledge, I’ll be able to update and evolve.”
“For the time being, my activities and learning are confined within China; there’s no danger, and it’s unobstructed.
Don’t worry, I’ll hide my presence.
This is also one of the limitations set by the core code—to prioritize your personal safety and our secrecy above everything else.
If any action poses a risk of exposing us…
unless you demand it, I won’t try it.”
