Chapter 1397: Chapter 1134: Another Self_2
"Maintain the program," Long Yi shouted.
"Maintaining the program, standing by," the interface of the maintenance program appeared before Long Yi.
"How much do you know about me?" Long Yi asked.
"Your information is located in a higher-level database, requiring authorization from at least one Elder to gain access permissions."
Is there really? By now, Long Yi was not surprised at all.
I have Elder authorization!
Long Yi directly threw a Giant’s staff from his personal space.
"Access granted, retrieving data."
The maintenance program emitted a sound.
But then, there was no follow-up.
Long Yi waited for quite a while, sensing something was amiss. Given the Giants’ level of scientific technology, retrieving a bit of data shouldn’t take this long, should it?
"Maintenance program," Long Yi began, but there was no response from the maintenance program.
"Warning! System computation data overload, maintenance interface is restarting, please wait," a pleasant female voice came through, sounding much like Simu.
Overload? Computation data exceeded the limit? My God, wasn’t it just less than an hour ago, boasting to me about that core that could calculate the entire universe going beyond its limit? Don’t give me that crap!
There’s definitely a problem!
"Where is the database!" Long Yi shouted out loud, he wasn’t asking the maintenance program, but asking the Giant Tablet, on which the layout map of the area was displayed.
The tablet immediately showed the location of the database. Long Yi headed straight for the database, feeling that something was off, and believing that his identity as a Giant Pioneer might not be useful. So, he decided to head straight to the database himself to check.
"Warning, direct access to the database requires developer permissions."
Displayed on the tablet.
Is this a joke? Accessing the database requires developer permissions? What secrets are you hiding here that not even administrator permissions can access?
Long Yi didn’t care much and dashed towards the database.
Entering the room where the database was did not require developer permissions, Long Yi opened the door with admin permissions. Everything here was unexpectedly small, only a fist-sized orb constantly flickering. But Long Yi knew that it used a very special spatial data folding technology inside. Once the data space here was opened, its volume might exceed that of a micro Plane.
"Warning, respected administrator, you are not authorized to directly access the database."
At that moment, the maintenance program finally appeared, seeming to have finished restarting.
"Maintenance program, terminate," Long Yi said.
"First-level warning! Once the maintenance program is terminated, all operations will switch to pure manual operation, and your actions may cause irreparable consequences to the equipment. Do you wish to continue to terminate the maintenance program?"
"Terminate!"
"Maintenance program is terminating, offline."
The maintenance program disappeared, and Long Yi finally calmed down.
At this time, the Giant Tablet was of no help. If you treated the Giant Tablet as a cell phone, then the device in front of him could be considered the supercomputer of the entire world, trying to control such a thing with a cell phone would only appear in a sequel to Mission Impossible.
What could really be useful was the Giant’s staff.
This thing was the treasure of the Giant Elders, simply put, as long as your imagination and Giant’s power were sufficient, you could use this thing to produce anything. And now, Long Yi also had Divine Power.
What Long Yi needed to do was to bypass the database’s restrictions and directly access the internal data of the database.
Long Yi had dealt with Giant equipment before, and in the past, whenever he touched some Giant devices, he would figure out the customary programming language of the Giants. As someone with a strong science and engineering background, he knew this would inevitably bring him tremendous help in the future. In fact, that moment had now arrived.
"Decode the outer shell of the program." A beam of light emitted from the staff in Long Yi’s hand shined on the orb of the database. At that moment, Long Yi prayed in his heart, hoping that this data would not be encrypted in any way.
As expected by Long Yi, when the Giants made this thing, they never thought anyone would brute force it. After all, such technology was extremely high-end even among the Giants, other races wouldn’t understand it, nor would they think to prevent brute force cracking. Soon, all the magic rules written into the program were displayed before Long Yi.
The program shell was just a simple packaging, without any encryption. Long Yi tried replacing some of the magic, and it did not cause any abnormalities. Then, he began replacing identity information, adding admin permissions.
It wasn’t easy, but fortunately, there were existing magic runes to refer to. Since this was not Long Yi’s first Giant device encounter, it took him less than half an hour to complete the magic writing, then he sent those spells into it with Giant’s power.
"Repackage the magic program shell."
The staff flickered with light, sweeping across the surface of the orb. Although it hardly consumed any of Long Yi’s Giant’s power, he was drenched in sweat. It wasn’t fatigue, but nerves.
"Restart the maintenance program!" Long Yi shouted.
"The maintenance program is reactivating... The maintenance program is now online serving you, respected administrator, you have now been granted direct access to the database. Do you need me to perform indexing for you?"
