"Shang Jianyue!"

Upon hearing this name, the entire Heaven Net Center fell silent.

Everyone instinctively looked up at Shang Zexian in the center of the room, thinking he had made a mistake.

How long has Shang Jianyue been dead? Even his ashes have long disappeared.

And you're telling me he's alive and bought a bottle of mineral water?!

"Damn, the Celestial Net AI has bugged again!" More than one analyst had this thought flash through their minds.

However, given the precedent set by employee number 9527, they did not voice it.

Shang Zexian looked unwell.

As a member of the Shang Family's direct lineage, he seemed to know some inside information, and when he uttered the name "Shang Jianyue," he immediately turned around and walked to his private office.

He dialed a number, and on the other end was a man's indifferent voice.

"Shang Zexian, you have no authority to command me. You should know that the Celestial Net AI's deduction of mechanical ascension is at a critical stage, and no other reason can justify interrupting it!"

"I didn't call to argue with you." Shang Zexian paused, speaking in a heavy tone, "Shang Jianyue has been resurrected!"

On the other end, the previously nonchalant man suddenly fell silent.

After a moment of silence, heavy breathing was heard on the other end, indicating the person's agitation.

Soon, the man's voice resumed: "Alright, I understand. I'll call an emergency meeting now and let everyone vote."

"Suspend the deduction command for mechanical ascension, awaken the Celestial Net AI, and conduct a full network scan!"

After the call, the Shang Family's upper management took this matter very seriously. The emergency meeting took just ten minutes, with a unanimous vote approving this decision.

"Do not alert the lower-tier people, let the Celestial Net AI precisely locate him, and have the Eight Star Abnormal Skeleton Warrior team secretly detain him!"

"I understand."

"Shang Zexian, those old timers are very satisfied with the information you've provided this time. Once this is over, they'll vote to let you take over Can Shang Company ahead of schedule."

"Heh, don't make me empty promises. I understand." Shang Zexian hung up the phone.

He walked out of the private office, quickly heading to the control room and inputting the activation key to awaken Celestial Net.

"Celestial Net activation complete."

As a mechanical electronic voice sounded, the previously orderly electronic data stream suddenly became chaotic.

The disordered data turbulence gathered on the big screen, eventually forming an older, more lifelike human face.

"Tell me, why have you awakened me this time?" This time, it was not an electronic synthesized voice, but a steadier elderly voice that spoke.

"Junior of the Shang Family, Shang Zexian greets the venerable Celestial Net AI." The usually aloof and dismissive Shang Zexian respectfully bowed after the AI awoke.

"Oh, it's you. I didn't expect you've grown so much. The last time I saw you, you were just a zygote."

The words of Celestial Net AI made Shang Zexian's mouth twitch slightly.

You really have a way with words. Couldn't you have just said the last time you saw me, I was still in my mom's belly? Such words always feel like an insult.

Shang Zexian dismissed other thoughts and quickly stated his main concern: "We've awakened you because our observations indicate that Shang Jianyue has been resurrected!"

"We would like to request your assistance in scanning the entire Titan City to locate Shang Jianyue's current position."

"Shang Jianyue, resurrected?" Even the all-knowing Celestial Net AI seemed puzzled upon hearing the news.

However, it quickly agreed, "This is simple. With 100% computational support, it will only take five seconds to scan all of Titan City's chip data."

After finishing these words, it spoke no more.

Five seconds later, it reopened its eyes and said, "I've found him. I'll provide his location to you."

"Alright, the task is done. I will return to sleep now." Having said that, the chaotic data turbulence vanished, and all the 0s and 1s became orderly again.

...

Titan City, Dawn Street.

A special large unit composed of Abnormal Skeleton Warriors was dispatched here.

On the outskirts of Dawn Street, a transparent invisible barrier slowly rose, a special particle isolation shield capable of withstanding a full-strength attack from a Tier Nine Powerhouse.

In silence, the team led by Eight Star Abnormal Skeleton Warriors was divided into ten squads, advancing from ten different directions towards a certain point on the street.

"The target is moving!"

"Team 3, be alert, the target is near you!"

"Use any means necessary, control the opponent first! Be extremely cautious!"

"Team 3 has spotted the target, go!"

With a shout in the channel, an Eight Star Abnormal Skeleton Warrior rushed out from the alley, exuding a terrifying aura, his strength, combined with Abnormal Skeleton Transformation, nearly reaching Tier Eight Peak!

His speed was unparalleled, leaving not even a shadow; a mere blur of movement, and in the blink of an eye, he was kilometers away!

Boom!

The noise of the attack echoed through all channels.

"Team 3, what's the status?"

"Team 3, did you catch him?"

"Team 3!"

"We caught him," said Team 3's leader into the communicator, "but something seems... off."

"Commander, you'd better come and have a look yourself."

Two minutes later, the commander of the capture operation arrived at the ambush site. He looked at the young man lying on the ground like a dead fish, having wet his pants from the shock.

He frowned.

"The Celestial Net archive contains his files."

"His name is Zhang Laifu, 33 years old, just an ordinary resident of Titan City. Not Shang Jianyue."

"Confirmed not him?"

"Confirmed not him!"

Upon hearing this, the commander frowned, glancing at Zhang Laifu, lying crippled on the ground from the forceful capture by the Abnormal Skeleton Warrior.

"Dispose of him quietly, then report to headquarters the capture mission has failed."

A kilometer away from Dawn Street on Eternal Shore Street, the small robot October sat on a bench, patting its flat metal belly softly.

A "bang, bang" metallic sound resonated.

Then it belched.

"So, how's it going, after consuming the second ancient film, any new reactions?" asked Han Zhan curiously, observing the scene.

The small robot October glanced at him.

Yes, a glance.

The lifeless electronic eyes of the small robot October suddenly became peculiar.

"Hehehehe!" A lewd sound slowly emitted from the small robot's speaker.
