Episode 27 [Eve (1)]
As always, the living room in the original world and Seoul were no different from before.
Thanks to this, I was able to maintain a sense of reality, but it also made the world on the other side feel unrealistic.
Especially, I felt that way after seeing an AI that speaks and thinks like a human.
After taking off his equipment, he put his cell phone down on the desk.
Cell phones were now only at 1%. It seemed like the update would take a long time.
***
Updates continued the next day.
Kyung-hoon first visited the factory where the repair was done. The factory had already been neatly repaired.
It looked very strange to see a clean factory alone in a deserted factory complex, but Kyung-Hoon paid the balance with a satisfied face. The construction contractor looked like he wanted to say something, but seeing Kyung-hoon satisfied, he just sighed and left.
The factory was still empty. A few tables and chairs. And, the stairs leading to the basement.
I had to fill it in from now on.
I felt sick because I was paying more taxes than I expected, but Kyung-Hoon now has his own factory.
Kyung-hoon first poured the items he had hidden at home and in his backpack into the basement of the factory.
Various junk, explosives, military supplies and camping equipment.
First, I put the items that shouldn’t be seen back in my backpack and then started looking at the junk with patterns on it.
I’m still not sure what it is, but it’s clear that if I research it further, I’ll be able to create something here.

On the outside, the world wasn’t that different from before. People shuttled between work and home as usual.
Mutant monsters and people were something that only appeared on TV or on the Internet.
It was the same with the Internet.
The Internet was still noisy with various stories, but now stories about mutations were losing importance compared to other issues. Occasionally, people would post mutant videos or articles on the Internet, but they did not receive as much attention as when they first appeared.
Maybe that’s why I didn’t attach much significance to the words and videos disappearing without a sound.
Kyung-hoon, who was looking at the monitor, tilted his head back and sighed.
I knew very well that it would take time for the shackles on the awakened to be lifted, but I couldn’t help but feel frustrated.
Kyung-hoon focused his attention on the mana stone cell phone on the desk.
99%, after two days it is finally time for the update to be completed.
Kyunghoon threw away his frustration and his eyes sparkled.
After a while, the number changed to 100, and the update was completed.
Four stars appeared on the screen, and soon numerous patterns covered the screen.
The dazzling screen made me sick to the point of motion sickness.
Kyung-hoon closed his eyes for a moment and when he opened them, his phone was back to the screen he was looking at before.
1. Help

9. Game
Menus have changed slightly.
The menu that had the phrase “download” has all disappeared from the phrase.
Now, I could open all menus.
touching explanation.
Of course, this It was incredibly surprising that a small cell phone contained supercomputer-level artificial intelligence, but Kyung-hoon had not yet realized how amazing it was. Kyung-hoon
asked Eve in a resigned voice.
“Is it possible to find someone like a hacker on the Internet? ”
-What kind of hacker are you talking about?
“A hacker who posts untraceable posts or secretly creates a bulletin board that only a few people can use.”
I tried posting using my cannon phone, but I couldn’t completely avoid tracking that way.
Moreover, it was not possible to leave messages in other countries or find awakened people using cannon phones.
Although it doesn’t have any great features, I already have a computer that understands speech well and is good at foreign languages, so I thought it would be worth looking into.
-You are looking for crackers.
“Call it cracker? Anyway, can I find someone who can do something like that?”
To be honest, I wasn’t expecting much, but I was planning on giving it a try as long as I could.
However, Eve gave an unexpected answer
– Do you really have to find a cracker? I’m not sure about that either. It’s possible.
Kyung-hoon looked at his phone with a puzzled face.
“What are you talking about?”
-I am an AI created to control mana communication. Communication disruption and communication tracking are my areas of expertise. The protocols are a little different, but I can do it well. I felt like I was a little proud through my stiff tone. After a while. At
the
desk
. Behind Kyung-hoon, who was sitting and writing, the TV was playing alone.
The TV was showing images of soldiers hunting mutants. A
huge water buffalo the size of a one-ton truck was knocked down by heavy fire from machine guns and grenade launchers, and soldiers were standing around the fallen bull. They were standing around cheering.
***
The subtitles and announcer’s comments continued to praise the soldiers’ performance.
Nowhere did it appear how much firepower was put into defeating just one mutant buffalo. The
commentator continued . came out and talked about the mutant humans who had been arrested.
Many countries were now quarantining mutant humans as a contagious disease. Korea was no exception.
The narrator explained the conditions in the places where mutant humans were quarantined and tried to put people at ease. He was making an effort.
It was a government promotional broadcast packaged as planned news.
When he finished writing, Kyung-hoon turned off the TV.
Then, he began to read what he had written.
“What the governments of each country announced about mutant humans is The placenta is a lie. Mutations are not contagious, and mutant humans are not contagious.
Incomplete mutant humans come from eating mutant monsters, and naturally awakened humans have no mental problems. Therefore...
Kyung-hoon’s words continued for a long time.
“...I hope that all people who have naturally awakened will hide their abilities and wait. The power of the monsters is getting stronger. Soon there will come a time when ordinary people will not be able to handle the mutant monsters.
Until then, please hide your strength and wait. And please continue to wait for news. -EV-”
As soon as Kyung-hoon finished speaking, Eve’s voice came from the phone.
-I transcribed everything. First, we translated it into a total of 20 languages, starting with English. Ready to send.
“You can never trace it, right?”
-yes. Dozens of routes were bypassed and intermediate router information and IP information were also disrupted. It is impossible to find the source.
“Okay, register.”
-All right. From now on, various internet broadcasters and portals. Start registering on the bulletin board.
The Wi-Fi mark on the cell phone blinked quickly, and Kyung-hoon’s message spread across the Internet around the world.
And the Internet and the world, which had been quiet, were turned upside down once again.
