After tinkering with the equipment for quite a while.

Da Vinci reported back.

"Chairman, we checked the consciousness nerve artificial network of the Evil Brain motor, the gemstone structure, the Light Imprint integration device, and the energy supply system, extracted the program from the self-check equipment… and confirmed that the device is not malfunctioning."

"It should be a problem with the Evil Brain."

"The Cave People are conducting a comprehensive diagnosis of the Usurper Worm and the Evil Brain."

Zhou Yi directly summoned Dong. The Shell Sanctuary emerged from the Light Core Arm Armor on the right hand and entered the gemstone structure of the Evil Brain core in front.

After a while.

Dong reported back, "Mr. Zhou, I've checked. It's not an Evil Brain problem; the Dream Demon entered of its own accord."

"We Cave People domesticated the Usurper Worm, so the Evil Brain will not directly capture surrounding consciousnesses. Even if a consciousness wants to enter, it would be repelled."

"But these Dream Demons have gone crazy, desperately drilling inside, in large numbers and with considerable strength. Once they enter, they are controlled by the Evil Brain and locked inside."

"The massive influx has formed a strong neural stimulus, activating the Evil Brain's automatic capture of the outside world… We have intervened manually to stop and shut down this function."

"Luckily, these Dream Demons haven't disintegrated."

Dong was also a bit helpless, "It's not our problem; the Dream Demons themselves are unreasonable. Could it be that Dream Demons actually like the Evil Brain?"

Zhou Yi thought it unlikely.

He summoned Canghai Jun for inquiry.

Canghai Jun carefully observed the Evil Brain motor.

Even though it had absorbed many Dream Demons, nothing was displayed on screen, as there was no designed visualization module yet.

He said, "Chairman, I can't see clearly from the outside; I need to enter the Evil Brain to ascertain the situation."

Zhou Yi agreed.

So he dived in.

Upon returning, Canghai Jun had a wry smile: "No wonder they're all intent on drilling into the Evil Brain because, from the Dream Demon's perspective, its initial dream hasn't yet been born."

According to his explanation.

To Dream Demons, dreamers are like moving replicas.

An initial dream is akin to the first kill, with the most rewarding recompense, offering unique fragments that greatly boost Dream Demon growth.

"With good luck, there's even a chance to acquire a name."

Canghai Jun explained, "Every Dream Demon pursues its own name, but over 99.99% of Dream Demons do not have one. This is somewhat akin to the Concept Life markers; only those with a name can distinguish themselves from others and further approach immortality, rather than merely being undead."

"A Dream Demon with a name is qualified to become a Weaving Lord."

"My former name was Canghai, while the name of Mayfly Jun is Mayfly."

Zhou Yi suddenly understood, "Inconsequential like an ephemeral mayfly in the vast universe, a speck in the boundless sea… You must have been friends for a long time? Even your names are so closely related."

"Yes, Chairman. We have been long-time friends, from nameless beings to having names, then to becoming Weaving Lords; we've always been on good terms."

Canghai Jun admitted frankly.

"Chairman, having one's own name is a critical and challenging step for Dream Demons. This name isn't self-chosen but is a name reflected by the dreamer."

"For instance, I often construct vast oceans and water environments, so my dreams naturally incorporate such environments. Numerous dreamers continuously generate Consciousness Fragments, with the same fragments accumulating and reacting with each other, eventually associating with me and creating a qualitative change. Numerous dreamers achieving the same high-level precise expression leads to the birth of a Dream Demon's name."

"A name is an association and marker of an existing entity. For Dream Demons, being exclusively remembered is a highly significant stage."

"Reaching this stage sufficiently proves a Dream Demon's exceptional dream creation abilities."

"Because of this, the initial dream is the time when leaving a unique name is most likely."

Zhou Yi understood.

Having a name is equivalent to a sort of technical title within the Dream Demon community. However, the title evaluation is based on client reputation.

Remembering the dream, describing the dream, and receiving widespread recognition from dreamers.

But now there's a troublesome issue.

That is, a large number of Dream Demons are trapped by the Evil Brain motor.

Zhou Yi scratched his head.

Releasing them would expose his infiltration into the Heavenly Kingdom Paradise.

Perhaps it's better to pretend nothing happened and keep them locked up for a while longer?

Just as he pondered, Da Vinci said beside him, "Chairman, we've urgently added a new module; we can now see the captured Dream Demons. You can directly control them with a joystick for releasing and capturing."

"Please take a look."

Zhou Yi thought to himself that the mechanical life's efficiency is indeed high, being able to fix bugs and optimize operations on the spot.

A simple tool bar appeared on the right side of the screen.

In the tool box, there were numerous small sharp-cornered demon-shaped [Dream Demons], all stacked together, showing a total of 113.

Among them, a special Dream Demon was isolated, displayed as [Dream Demon·Wind Roll Grass].

This Wind Roll Grass was the only one with a name, a holder of an advanced title.

Zhou Yi asked Da Vinci, "How do I operate the tool bar?"

"Chairman, you can use touch control."

Da Vinci explained, "Originally, this was a gradually implemented operational aid, but due to the Dream Demon situation, we've directly enabled this module."

"Just swipe to release them."

Zhou Yi thought it was quite convenient.

He swiped with his hand, finding he could move the Dream Demons back and forth. But that was it; there were no more complex operations yet.

At that moment.

Crab Boss suddenly appeared on the screen.

A black-and-white large crab waved its claws, communicating via consciousness resonance, "Chairman, there's a problem; we have attracted the attention of the Weaving Lords."

Zhou Yi noticed two special figures had already appeared on the screen.

One was a fat man in a suit, and the other was a thin, white-bearded old man wearing a Wizard Hat.

The two weaving masters appeared.

Zhou Yi only recognized Light Imprint.

He couldn't identify the other old wizard.

Dead Sea, standing nearby, suggested, "Chairman, how about I go over and negotiate? Considering it involves our latest technological secrets, it's better not to expose them."

Zhou Yi thought for a moment, "No. Just tell the weaving masters and other Dream Demons. We're here to test new devices... and also invite them to come see."

Secrecy might not be achievable with mere concealment.

It's better to showcase strength and technological prowess.

"Yes."

Dead Sea immediately dove into the screen.

He chatted with the two weaving masters for a while, but the specifics couldn't be displayed.

They clearly looked quite surprised and couldn't help but glance over at the screen.

After receiving consent, the two weaving masters entered this side through the screen.

Zhou Yi smiled and looked at them, "Welcome, both of you."

"Apologies for the visit."

"I've heard much about you, Mr. Zhou."

The two weaving masters were indeed very courteous.

Dead Sea, nearby, introduced, "Chairman, you've already met Light Imprint. This one's Dingyou; his student Wind Roll Grass is also in the Evil Brain Motor."

Zhou Yi said to Dingyou, "Don't worry, it's fine."

"Is this Evil Brain Motor really controllable?"

Dingyou assessed the device in front of him, resembling an arcade machine.

"Absolutely."

Zhou Yi gestured, "Sit here, and by controlling the joystick and buttons above, you can activate the Evil Brain."

Dingyou immediately, without hesitation, started operating.

He was very smart, and Zhou Yi just briefly introduced the basic functions, and he quickly mastered various operations of the Evil Brain Motor.

"Interesting, interesting."

"This technology is impressive!"

Dingyou murmured, then directly initiated the A key attack mode, capturing Dream Demons nearby one by one, with the ghost in the tool bar constantly incrementing numbers. This excited many Dream Demons, who began attacking him.

The old man was quite spirited in his play.

"How dare you recklessly attack me?"

"What caliber do you think you are? Can you compete with me in technology?"

"Come on, come on!"

The old Dream Demon started his claw crane game against the Dream Demons, opening a one-versus-hundred unmatched mode with the Dream Demon group.

Zhou Yi winced.

This old man was harsher on his own people than himself.

Directly using Dream Demons for experiments.

Dead Sea spoke in synchronous consciousness, "Chairman, Dingyou is a master of dreams, specializing in Consciousness Fragments technology."

"He has always been deeply immersed in dream creation, with very high talent in this area... he belongs to the pure technology faction, so seeing a device like the Evil Brain Motor would indeed pique his interest."

Zhou Yi watched old Dream Demon's operation.

Don't say.

Faced with a lot of Dream Demon encirclement, old Dream Demon could almost perfectly block them, creating ripples to capture attacking Dream Demons in a virtually break-position way.

Despite his appearance of age, he's a talent-flow operation monster.

"Hahaha, good, good!"

"This is fun!"

The old man laughed while operating.

Light Imprint, standing by, couldn't stand it and coughed twice, "Dingyou, your disciple is still caught by you... that's enough. Mr. Zhou is still watching, pay attention."

Dingyou, somewhat irritated, continued pressing buttons to capture Dream Demons, without taking his eyes off the screen, "Mr. Zhou hasn't said anything, why are you babbling?"

With his retort, Light Imprint was instantly deflated.

He could only smile awkwardly, "Mr. Zhou, Dingyou is like this... obsessed with technology, please don't mind."

"I always have great respect for professionals."

Zhou Yi also smirked.

"The company's progress has been too fast; we were discussing the cleaning of evil brains earlier, and now the Evil Brain Motor has come into being in such short time."

Light Imprint sighed and couldn't help but glance at Dead Sea, "Your foresight is indeed accurate, no wonder you're so confident."

Dead Sea said calmly, "The company has already gone through the most difficult initial stage, and we haven't reached the real peak period. So I think the Dream Demon Clan should discern what truly qualifies for quality collaboration and entry timing, not living in outdated common knowledge."

"If common knowledge and old experiences could maintain the world, then the Dead Sea wouldn't have come into existence."

Light Imprint didn't refute this time, instead nodded.

He looked at Zhou Yi, "Mr. Zhou, regarding the Seventh Agent Verne, we've already confirmed its true situation."

"This Bone Man is not simple... It seems to sense unpleasantness, remaining absent in the outer world; the aesthetic and maintenance originally scheduled were never executed. Even the small business group doesn't know where it's gone."

Light Imprint spoke in a serious tone, "The Seventh has never changed... the information it holds about Heavenly People should be considerable, and caution is needed in 404 City's control."

"Though ranking last, its danger might be the highest among the agents due to its binding with 404 City."

Zhou Yixin thought that was correct.

This means, capturing the Seventh can yield a lot of intelligence.
