Chapter 666: Chapter 37 Turing and the Fourth Dreamland Chapter 666: Chapter 37 Turing and the Fourth Dreamland Bang!!

A deafening gunshot at close range.

The large caliber bullet pierced directly through Kevin Walker’s forehead and then blasted a large hole in the back of his head, sending his upper body toppling back onto the equipment rack.

Blood and brain matter mixed together and stuck to several computer mainframes...dripping down thickly.

There were no screams,

no ferocious trembling,

everything returned to silence.

In front of such a terrifying weapon, all life was so fragile and brief.

But Lin Xian didn’t relax at all.

...

Kevin Walker’s bizarre actions just now made him wonder if there really was someone else in the room?

If there wasn’t anybody else...

[Then who was Kevin Walker talking to just now?]

Gunfighting is different from ordinary combat; life and death are determined in an instant.

Hence, Lin Xian had never intended to give Kevin Walker any chance of survival from the start.

Mercy towards an enemy is cruelty towards oneself.

Although it was a rare opportunity, if he had interrogated Kevin Walker, he might have been able to extract useful information before killing him.

But countless painful historical lessons show that villains die because they talk too much.

In the current uncertain situation, with unclear countermeasures, and being in a home field that he was unfamiliar with, especially since Kevin Walker was obviously communicating with someone...

For his own safety, he couldn’t let the enemy live a second longer.

Letting Kevin Walker live another second brought him a second closer to death.

This was also the most useful experience Lin Xian had summed up from playing gunfights in dreams all these years—

Never be overconfident or arrogant about interrogating the enemy if you don’t have an absolute advantage or have eliminated all dangers.

What were you thinking!!”

...

At that moment, Kevin Walker was furiously pounding the table, clearly very angry and resentful, very surprised and shocked, as if his worldview and philosophy of life had suddenly collapsed.

It was precisely because his method of communication was too “human” that Lin Xian, to be safe, did not initially think it was a conversation with an Artificial Intelligence AI.

Based on Lin Xian’s understanding of Artificial Intelligence in the current era...

Such impotent rage was something current era AI could not understand or respond to, unless Kevin Walker, like himself, possessed a smart super Artificial Intelligence like VV.

In any case.

After confirming there were no immediate threats in the house, Lin Xian began to gather information and intelligence within his field of vision.

But after scanning around...

Kevin Walker, being a hacker, truly had implemented paperless office to the extreme; after scanning nearby, there was no paper material except for the toilet paper.

He shook the mouse and pressed the keyboard.

The monitor lit up, but there was a password lock, and it seemed impossible to crack it in a short time.

Outside, Yu Xi and the Time-Space Assassin were fiercely fighting; although he couldn’t help much, he still needed to go out and assist Yu Xi as soon as possible...

At least he could lead Yu Xi to temporarily retreat.

In the current situation, where he couldn’t intervene, letting Yu Xi and the Time-Space Assassin fight 1V1 was clearly disadvantageous, rather than retreating first, waiting to find a way to break the Time-Space Assassin’s immunity to the laws of Space-Time, and then having a 2V1 advantage.

Just as Lin Xian thought the assassination trip was going to be fruitless, he suddenly noticed something!

It was a peripheral toy product of the movie “Wandering Earth 2′′—

a Digital Life USB drive!

Lin Xian had seen this item online.

Right after the New Year of 2023, he had gone to the cinema with Tang Xin to watch the science fiction movie “Wandering Earth 2” back in East Sea.

The movie was quite interesting, and at that time it was very popular, with related news all over the internet.

There was also a high demand for crowdfunding for peripherals.

Lin Xian vaguely remembered that among many crowdfunded peripheral products, this Digital Life USB drive had the highest level of attention, with the crowdfunding amount DIRECTLY breaking through several hundred million.
