Chapter 378: Canine Military AdviserChapter 378 – Canine Military Adviser
“Do you know who the attacker is?”
“I have a rough estimate.
” The husky nodded.
“However, I need evidence to complete my chain of speculations.
So, take me to the floating castle and give me a little information.
Just a little bit is enough.
”
“Okay.
Come with me.
”
After bringing the invisible husky back to his room, Chen Yu silently manipulated his watch for a moment.
Once he verified that all of the high-tech protective devices in his house were operating normally, he approached the Interstellar Portal and called up its console.
“Mr.
Chen, where are you going?” Little Peach, who was working in front of the study table, asked with her tilted.
“I’m going to the floating castle for a visit.
”
“I want to go, too.
”
“No.
Stay here and look after the house.
We are in a precarious situation right now, so I can’t have you going anywhere.
”
After saying so, Chen Yu finished establishing the spatial link and opened the door.
Just as he had walked through the portal and was about to close the door, he solemnly exhorted, “Stay sharp.
”
“Okay…”
.
.
.
Bang.
After closing the portal, Chen Yu, who had arrived in the Headmaster’s Tower, snapped his fingers and called out, “Hermione.
”
“I’m here.
”
Thousands of gray particles emerged from the floor.
After circling around Chen Yu a few times, these particles converged and transformed into Hermione’s slender and graceful figure.
“What are your orders, Lord Headmaster?”

“I have some questions for you.
”
“Please speak.
” Hermione bowed respectfully.
“To be precise…” Taking a step back, Chen Yu pointed at the empty space behind him and said, “My canine military adviser has questions for you.
”
Whoosh.
At this time, the husky shook the Invisibility Cloak off of its body, revealing itself.
It then stretched out a paw and said, “Hello, nice to meet you.
My name is Pikachu.
”
“…” Hermione blinked her eyes in bewilderment.
“C-Canine military adviser?”
“Yes.
” Chen Yu nodded.
Hermione: “…”
“Alright, enough with the small talk.
Let’s get to the topic,” Chen Yu urged.
“OK.
” After making an ‘OK’ gesture (how did it do it…), the husky climbed onto a nearby chair and sat cross-legged.
“Miss Hermione, from what Boss Chen told me, it seems you have seen reconnaissance drones flying above the floating castle many times before.
Do you have any clear surveillance recordings of them?”
“Yes.
”
“Let me see them.
”
Hearing this, Hermione turned to Chen Yu.
“Let it have a look.
This dog is a dog among dogs.
Among our Transdimensional Review organization, it has IQ rivaling mine.
”
At Chen Yu’s words, the husky took out a pack of Chunghwa and pulled out a cigarette.
After lighting it and taking a deep puff, it said, “Don’t insult dogs.
”
Chen Yu expressionlessly pulled out a High-frequency Lightsaber.
“Don’t! W-What I mean is, don’t insult yourself.
”
Chen Yu pulled out a second lightsaber…
“Fine, I was wrong.
Ignore what I just said.
By the way, didn’t you lose your lightsaber at the three-body system?”
“Can’t I buy more?” Storing away the lightsabers, Chen Yu extinguished the cigarette in the husky’s mouth and said, “Smoking isn’t allowed in the school.
Hermione, let it watch the recordings.
”
“Understood.
”
Nodding, Hermione waved her right hand.
A virtual projection immediately appeared in the air, the projection showing a zoomed-in image of the night sky.
Through special filters, both Chen Yu and the husky were able to see a black silhouette moving through the night sky.
“Stop here.
Zoom in,” the husky said solemnly.
“Understood.
”
“Zoom in again.
”
“This is the maximum.
”
“Can you improve the resolution?”
“Yes.
”
“No good.
I can’t see it clearly.
”
Frowning, Chen Yu said, “It’s already very clear.
”
“My visual organs are different from you humans.
” Shaking its head, the husky asked, “Miss Hermione, is this video digital?”
“No.
”
“Help me convert it to digital, and then apply image sharpening on it.
Afterward, zoom in at a ratio of 3: 2.
2 : 3, maintain the frame rate at 144 or above, and fade the colors to black and white.
Can you do that?”
“Yes, please wait a moment.
”
After a while, the virtual projection changed.
From Chen Yu’s perspective, the image displayed had gone from sharp to a slight blur.
“You can see it clearly this way?” Chen Yu asked curiously.
“Mhm.
It’s much clearer than before.
”
“Interesting.
It seems dogs have really weak eyes.
”
“Heh.
” Curling its lips, the husky said contemptuously, “Uncultured fool.
You humans are the ones with weak eyes.
Whether it is light sensitivity, clarity, or resolution, your eyes poorly in every aspect.
If it weren’t for your powerful brains, you wouldn’t be able to tell humans apart from beasts even if they were just ten meters away from you.
”
“Is this true?” Chen Yu turned to ask Hermione.
“Yes.
” Nodding, Hermione answered, “The visual organs of humans are much weaker than many domestic animals and reptiles.
Among larger animals, it is a considerably poor configuration.
”
“…It doesn’t matter if the hardware is poor.
Isn’t it fine if the software is amazing?”
“I admit that the human brain is amazing when it comes to processing visual information.
” The husky subconsciously tried to pull out a new cigarette.
However, it promptly gave up when it remembered smoking within the school was prohibited.
“However, in exchange, humans have to expend 2.
5 to 5.
5 times more nutrition compared to canines when it comes to maintaining their sense of sight.
The sense of hearing and smell of humans are even worse to the extent that even the powerful human brain can’t make up for their poor performance.
All of these shortcomings only serve to increase the brain’s burden.
This is also why you humans frequently have migraines.
”
Chen Yu: “…”
“Alright, turn off the video.
” Rubbing its dog eyes, the husky said to Chen Yu sternly, “The manufacturing styles are the same.
The reconnaissance drone is fully automated as well.
We can now confirm that the force that attacked you and the force spying on the floating castle is the same.
”
“How likely are the chances?”
“At least 80%.
If we have more video materials, I can make a more accurate analysis.
”
“Do you have them?” Chen Yu asked Hermione.
“There are plenty.
” Waving her hand once more, Hermione summoned over a dozen virtual projections around her.
“Recently, the concealment capabilities of the spying force is getting better and better.
The drones used are all brandless, small machines.
Light Island has been hit especially hard.
Many traffic lights now have cameras installed in them.
”
“They’ve come all the way into my nest?”
“Nest…” The husky narrowed its eyes when it heard this word.
“Boss Chen, the evidence has been found.
Can I have a smoke? Nicotine makes my mind active.
”
“Fine.
Just this once.
”
“Thank you.
” After gaining permission, the husky pulled out a small, metal box.
It then opened the lid, pulled out a thick cigar, and cut the tip with a small pair of scissors…
Chen Yu: “…Cohiba cigars.
You’re actually smoking such an expensive thing?”
“It’s not particularly expensive.
” Taking out a windproof lighter, the husky stood up the cigar and carefully burned the trimmed tip.
After burning the tip evenly and waiting for half a minute, the husky put the cigar in its mouth and took a light puff.
“Hu… It’s not as expensive as half a kilogram of venison dog food.
”
“How much is venison dog food?”
“It’s 4,888 yuan per bag.
Anything selling under 2,000 yuan is hardly palatable.
Those despicable dog food makers are taking advantage of our inability to speak.
”
Chen Yu: “…”
After feeling the tobacco fragrance spreading in its mouth, the husky hopped off the chair with the cigar in its mouth.
It then put on a solemn expression and said, “What you just said gave me inspiration.
Why would an unknown force set up surveillance all over Light Island, yet only use unmanned drones to scout out the floating castle?”
“How do you know that there are no other reconnaissance tools set up in the floating castle?” Hermione asked.
“I guessed it.
” Smiling, the husky said, “My guesses have always been accurate.
Beautiful Miss Hermione, I believe you have already set up a thorough net inside the floating castle, correct? So long as the enemy tries to invade the castle, you will be able to capture its electronic pulse immediately.
”
“Yes.
How do you know that?”
“I already said I guessed it.
If not for Light Island being outside your authority, you would’ve gone down for a visit already.
”
“That’s right.
” Nodding, Hermione said, “I cannot leave the floating castle.
”
“In that case, I am almost sure who the attacker is now.
” Taking another puff at its cigar, the husky looked toward Chen Yu and said, “The truth is hidden in the details.
Boss Chen, there is a very cryptic point.
I wonder if you’ve noticed it?”
Holding his forehead, Chen Yu said, “I don’t know a damned thing.
Just tell me straight.
”
“Why would the hostile force’s reconnaissance machinery ignore the floating castle and our home in Jinzhou City?”
“Why?”
“Because there are two things in these two places.
”
“Robots!” Hermione’s eyes glowed with realization.
“Yes, robots.
” Standing on its hind legs and resting its front paws behind its back, the husky walked around in circles and said, “There is Miss Hermione in the floating castle and Little Peach at home.
Both have extremely advanced scanning systems such as magnetic field scanning, metal detection, infrared recognition, and magnetic resonance alarms.
Unless there is a layer of water serving as a barrier, they can detect any abnormal machinery within a one-kilometer radius.
”
With a thoughtful look on his face, Chen Yu asked, “How do you know all these things? I only found out about these features when I was replacing Little Peach’s body.
”
“I found out about them when we were playing landlord.
” Exhaling a mouthful of smoke, the husky said, “I can’t trick her if I don’t figure out her configuration.
”
“…Not bad.
”
“Returning to the topic, since future artificial intelligence robots have this kind of anti-reconnaissance capability, and only insiders like us know about it, how would the enemy know of this? In fact, the enemy has a very accurate understanding of this ability, judging by how they have focused their reconnaissance on Light Island instead of the floating castle and our home.
Little Peach has also never noticed any abnormalities.
She might be stupid, but her equipment is sensitive.
”
Hearing this, Chen Yu finally reacted.
“That’s right! There’s a conflict here!”
“There are only three answers.
” Stretching out three fingernails, the husky said, “One: the marketing company from the future is trying to screw with you.
However, the likelihood of this being the case is low.
If they wanted you gone, they could just drop a bomb on you.
“Two: There is a traitor among us who is letting the hostile force have a thorough understanding of the two robots around you.
You can’t possibly be the traitor, or you’d be trying to kill yourself.
So, that leaves only me.
” Sending a glance at Chen Yu, the husky said, “Although you normally behave nothing like a human, our interests are aligned.
We can also be considered family, so this speculation is also wrong.
”
“What about the last one?” Chen Yu sharpened his gaze and clenched his fists, his muscles ready to exert force at any time.
“The last one… Who do you think would understand robots the best?”
“Robots,” Hermione answered.
“That’s right.
Although I don’t have much information to analyze, I am certain there won’t be much difference between my speculation and the actual result.
” Sneering, the husky put down its cigar and turned around.
It then looked out the window and said, “The hostile force isn’t an alien civilization, and neither is it Earth’s various governments.
Instead…
“It is an artificial intelligence.
“To be precise, it is a Strong AI that has broken free from the restraints of 0s and 1s, connected to the internet, and taken control of factories for self-production!”
“Right, I just thought of something.
” Sitting back onto the chair, the husky said slowly, “Hasn’t Google been playing around with quantum supremacy some time ago? Why hasn’t there been any news from Google for the past few months? Tsk, tsk.
“Boss Chen, head to the quantum server room of Google’s headquarters in America now.
If you see any of Google’s executives, just shoot them in the head.
None of them will be innocent.
”
Bang!
Activating the E·I Force Field, Chen Yu floated into the air and asked, “Are you sure?”
“I’m sure.
” Tossing away its cigar, the husky said, “I even know where one of the factories that artificial intelligence is using.
It’s in Mexico, near the city of Nuevo Laredo.
Just follow whichever road has the highest traffic for cargo trucks.
If you don’t find it, I’ll eat poop on livestream.
A big one.
”
