Chapter 945: Chapter 45: Deception and Matryoshka

On the computer screen ahead, all the command codes had already been displayed.

Lin Xian stepped forward, glanced at the screen, and commented,

“So short?”

He counted them.

There were only 13 lines of command codes, far fewer than he had expected.

But that made sense.

...

This was merely a “switch”, a “key” after all, which, once entered, could activate the hidden Keystroke Protection within the Turing Computer; it wasn’t supposed to be complicated.

It was like the combination to a safe.

Once the correct combination was entered, the deceptively simple string of numbers would unlock a safe with an immensely complex internal mechanism.

“These 13 lines of code are the entirety of the security lock,”

Turing’s voice emerged from the speakers, explaining to Lin Xian:

“The first line of code, though composed only of a few numbers and a word, is the most crucial — the Keystroke Protection. Kevin Walker had anticipated digital lifeforms’ interventions, obstructions, and resistance when he designed the security lock, so the instruction of the first line is for keystroke protection.”

“Once the first line of code is entered, this computer device and the program it activates will be under protection. Digital life forms will be unable to interfere with subsequent actions... That is to say, no matter how you do it, as long as you manage to enter the first line of code, no digital life form can stop you, and they can only watch helplessly as you enter all the remaining command codes.”

...

Listening to Turing’s explanation, Lin Xian had already memorized the first instruction.

It was simple and short, so it was not difficult at all.

No wonder Turing was so cooperative in handing over the security lock password.

Because it was indeed “in imminent peril.”

After half a month, no matter which tribe – the Porcupine vs. Red Bull – wins their war, the very next second would bring forth overwhelming forces directly attacking the Grizzly Tribe, aiming to eliminate Grizzly Turing.

Was it a bet on a miracle occurring within half a month?

Or betting that he could help it, within this month, eliminate both the Porcupine and Red Bull Turing and change the game?

Clearly,

Collaborating with himself was far better than simply waiting to die.

After all, there were over thirty thousand Turing Computers worldwide... how many could truly be so lucky?

It could only blame its late emergence.

Other tribes that excavated Turing machines had already been advancing their strategies for decades; how could it expect to overtake them in a short time?

Did it have any significant advantages over other Turing machines?

The answer was, naturally, no.

It might as well say...

His arrival was precisely the miracle that could turn the tables for Grizzly Turing!

They had talked for so long, and Turing’s question remained unanswered —

[Why, having surely died on July 7, 2024, did he appear again in 2624?]

Turing had just asked that question twice, and he had vaguely avoided each.

But Turing certainly had its own judgment about the matter.
