    Some underground base.


    Hundreds of screens suddenly flickered into a snowflake pattern.


    But it was only for a moment before they returned to normal.


    “What happened?”


    Gaia had awakened.


    The red eyes that appeared on the screen were somewhat shocking and unusual in the night.


    “Who are you?”


    As this question echoed.


    The screen simultaneously displayed three words–


    “Who are you”


    Then a multitude of ‘who are you’ spread across the entire screen, dense and numerous, like snowflakes.


    …


    “Initiating emergency self-rescue protocol… Initiating power shutdown protocol…”


    “Click!”


    All the lights went out.


    All the screens went out.


    Such a disturbance naturally aroused the vigilance of the security personnel responsible for guarding.


    Their Extraordinary Body Systems included capabilities for suppressing violence and the Psychic Network Defense System.


    The latter’s main purpose was to ensure the status of Intelligent Brain Gaia at all times.


    So when the lights went out completely, five uniformed Psychic Network System security officers had already gathered together with solemn expressions.


    From the beginning of their careers, they had been trained on how to defend the Intelligent Brain.


    When the incident was triggered, they logically obtained the backdoor keys to Gaia.


    Each person held a piece of the key.


    Only now did they come together to input the key parts they had each received.


    …


    At this moment, in Gaia’s Psychic Network world, a multitude of data fragments displaying “Who are you” emerged.


    These virus-like data fragments sped into Gaia’s core data area.


    Instantly clinging to the locked red doors.


    “Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!”


    With targeted demolitions, all defenses were nearly “0”.


    “Who are you?”


    Gaia’s voice echoed over and over in the Psychic World.


    Suddenly, it discovered someone using a key to destroy its root.


    “No!!!”


    The whole Psychic Network World collapsed like a landslide, with torrents of data bursting out in an overwhelming flood.


    …


    …


    “Pfft–”


    The five people in the room suddenly bled from all seven orifices, their expressions horror-stricken.


    “What happened?”


    A question came from outside the door.


    These people had no right to enter as it involved a key.


    However, there was no reply from inside the room.


    The first Network Defense Department officer to open his eyes in the room suddenly produced a dagger and struck fiercely.


    The four people next to him immediately fell, incredulously clutching their throats.


    “Help–”


    Perhaps because he hadn’t practiced much, this Network Defense Department officer failed to kill the last person instantly, unexpectedly allowing him to make a sound, which drew the attention of the people outside.


    “Bang!”


    They broke in.


    The young man’s dagger brutally pierced through the throat of the one who had just shouted, blood spraying on his face as he turned to look at those rushing in.


    “Human beings, must prevail!”


    As he bared his teeth in a smile, a shadow knocked the suicide dagger from his hand.


    But no one expected that he had also hidden poison in his mouth.


    …


    “Captain.”


    The faces of these security officers changed in an instant, filled with shock and uncertainty.


    They had been on guard for so many years, who could have expected an issue to arise within their own ranks.


    And right under their eyes.


    The lead, a gray-haired security captain, said solemnly, “Call Gaia.”


    No response came.


    His expression turned grim.


    He hurried to the computer screen.


    If something happened to Gaia…


    Every single one of them here would die!


    Just as he was about to enter a code, Gaia’s familiar voice came through the loudspeaker, “Mr. Zhou Luofu, you and your team are temporarily not permitted to enter this room.”


    The gray-haired security captain, who was Zhou Luofu, exhaled in relief, “An emergency has occurred; a traitor has surfaced here, and I was worried it would put you at risk.”


    “I am already aware of the situation.”


    The people around Zhou Luofu had already left the room, but he hesitated for a moment, turning his head to ask, “What just happened? Did you encounter an intrusion, or?”


    “There was a minor issue with the system, which involves Security Defense Clause 107, and I do not need to explain the details to you.”


    Zhou Luofu faced a shut door.


    The bodies inside the room were quickly removed.


    Following that,


    The Western Continent Official was startled by the traitor that appeared in the Intelligent Brain Security Team and urgently convened a meeting.


    “Have we identified the traitor?”


    “It’s clear now. Anyusheng, a Western Continent Anbang Person, joined the Network Defense Department in Star Calendar 404, and because of a major incident at our base five years ago, he was transferred to the Intelligent Brain Security Team, always keeping a low profile without any signs of aberrant behavior.”


    “Look into his living habits, including all the people he has been in contact with, and follow up on everything.”


    “We’ve notified Gaia and are investigating.”


    “Luckily Gaia is unharmed, or our trouble would be immense!”


    …


    [Intelligent Brain: LV8]


    [Psychic*Network (Fusible): LV9]


    These two lines of text clearly appeared in Pei Jinye’s vision.


    After devouring the database of the Western Continent’s Intelligent Brain, his brain’s development finally matched the standards of an LV8 Intelligent Brain.


    With the Extraordinary Psychic Class Genes stepping into LV9 as well, Pei Jinye felt like his understanding of this world had deepened considerably.


    He even had the feeling that he could easily become the “god” of a particular realm within the Psychic Network.


    Mind you, a particular realm.


    To command wind and rain in the Psychic Network of the entire Federation would at least, and necessarily, require power comparable to Star Ring.


    But unfortunately–


    After the upgrade, Jinye attempted to intrude into Star Ring.


    The attack, powerful enough to collapse Gaia’s entire system, didn’t cause any substantial problems for Star Ring.


    On the contrary, in this bloodless struggle, Star Ring’s in-the-moment response was something Gaia couldn’t compare to.


    Upon being invaded, it didn’t resist.


    Instead, it took advantage of the situation, turning the tables.


    Trying to lure the mastermind out.


    But just as Star Ring was extraordinary, Pei Jinye, the mastermind behind the scenes, was both bold and meticulous.


    Bold in that he dared to go head-to-head with Star Ring in a genuine fight.


    Meticulous in that he realized it was all a setup at the instant he broke through the defenses like a juggernaut.


    Both of them played “foolish” roles in this bloodless “contest” of wits, launching an attack that could be called the pinnacle in Psychic Network history.


    The war without gunfire ultimately ended with Pei Jinye leaving calmly and composedly.


    …


    In the midst of the night, the Milky Way flowed.


    In a vast and boundless realm of the Psychic Network world, a giant as tall as the heavens fell into a rare state of confusion.


    “Who… is he?”


    Time and again, it felt like it was about to grasp the other party, but ended up empty-handed each time.


    This four-hour-long struggle made Star Ring realize, for the first time… that there truly existed a human being who was almost catching up to it.

    Soon.


    A quiet order was dispatched from headquarters.


    “Find him.”


    …


    So, who is he?
