I changed the timeline with the game.

Chapter 252 [Beamforming Laws]

Su Wen fully demonstrated his superb driving skills as a legendary driver.

Under the illumination of Manhattan street lights, the pure black McLaren shuttled back and forth among the traffic.

But the shadow's position was getting closer.

Dolores closed her eyes.

Just a moment.

The positions of all enemies appeared in her perception.

then.

The icy-faced female executive crossed her arms:
"Word Spirit - Prohibition: Lock"

moment.

Countless silver chains shot out from between the tall buildings and pierced through the black shadows with ease.

And bound them firmly in mid-air.

The other drivers who saw this scene were terrified and they drove away in panic and in an increasingly disorderly manner.

It even triggered a chain reaction and caused a series of traffic accidents.

But a traffic accident also blocked them where they were.

next second.

The third killing move from the mastermind behind the scenes followed.

It was a huge ball of bright yellow light carrying a huge amount of unstable psychic energy, falling from the sky towards them and the traffic-clogged streets of Manhattan.

"It seems that vehicles are not a good choice for the second half of our journey."

Su Wen shrugged gently.

then.

He snapped his fingers lightly

【Load file】

[Loading time: about to leave Brooklyn, five seconds ago]

then.

In the gap between reading files.

Su Wen started the third draw.

This time, he chose [Surprise Box]

The seals brought by the treasure boxes the first two times were already powerful enough. Next, it’s time to add some entertainment to the game.

Game extraction interface.

A box with a colorful clown head painted on it appeared before his eyes.

[Do you want to open the 'surprise box'? ]

【Yes】

He clicked OK.

The next second, the entire game screen exploded:

【BOOM! 】

[Congratulations, you are the lucky leader]

【surprise! 】

[You were killed by the 'Sixth-order Antimatter Surprise Bomb'! ]

【You achieve: Art is explosion】

【Do you want to load the file? 】

See this settlement.

Su Wen expressed shock.

Although he knew that this surprise box was not reliable, it was such a perverted reward that he found it hard to believe that it was a Christmas gift rather than a Halloween or April Fools' Day prank prop.

At least, in the card drawing games that Su Wen had played, he had never drawn the 'sudden death' option.

With an endorsement of trashy games.

He started the next card draw.

【surprise! 】

[You have obtained the 'explosive head' special effect (cannot be changed)]

The next second, Su Wen's character model changed as if he had just escaped from the battlefield in Afghanistan.

After admiring Dolores's cute expression of surprise and trying hard to hold back her laughter.

Su Wen also left a selfie of himself humorously:

"It's really stupid."

Then continue to read the file.

that's it.

After four reloads.

Su Wen finally saw a reward that was slightly less outrageous

【surprise! 】

[You have obtained the buff (Level 3) 'War Correspondent']

[BUFF (War Correspondent) Effect: If your shooting skills are extremely poor and you cannot hit the enemy or the various strokes at all.

As unusual

Although the effects and taunts are rubbish.

But at least it’s a positive effect:
Su Wen decided not to reload the save file.

If the next six times are all negative gains, then he can probably start the game over again.

can only say.

Trash card game.

The gap between the card pools is really huge. The game plot continues to load the file.

Just before crossing the Manhattan Bridge.

Su Wen drove the black luxury car into an alley where no one would notice him.

then.

Five seconds later.

Dolores was the only one who walked out of the alley.

She stood on the Manhattan Bridge and called for armed helicopter support.

And Su Wen.

He used the camouflage ability of this game to change his appearance once again.

He was wearing a black cloak and moving quickly between buildings, reducing his presence with his newly acquired ability as a "War Correspondent."

He sneaked towards the location where the shadow attack occurred before the save was loaded.

at the same time.

Caroline, who was only wearing a black gauze pajamas, was also looking at the hacked New York State road surveillance on the display screen.

In order not to expose Rhine's identity.

Until Su Wen and Dolores separated.

She chose to access the communication line via voice call.

Of course, Miss Hacker would never say that. She just leaned lazily on the bed in the bedroom, with a hint of playfulness in her sweet words:

"Mr. Rhine.

I really didn't expect that you would be so courageous.

They even dare to use the name of Dolores, the bad woman, to introduce the incident.

Aren't you worried about being taken to the federal court tomorrow?"

Su Wen replied humorously as he moved quickly in the shadows.

“Suppose Times Square was destroyed by a Christmas Eve disaster.

I think.

The federal court probably doesn’t have time to deal with my case, which is a lower priority.”

"Of course, it's just a joke."

He continued to ask calmly:

“Caroline.

Can you find out what method the mastermind behind this promotion ceremony used to track me and Dolores? "

Miss Hacker thought for a moment:
“At least not an electronic signal.

Because, hum, I have already hacked all the data channels in New York State in advance and conducted secondary data coverage.

It is very likely to lock on to psychic properties.

or.

A 'frontier relic.'"

“Very good, it seems so.

That should be the 'next puzzle' I need to solve."

Along with Su Wen's inference locked.

The system prompts as expected:

[Branch mission confirmed: Search for the "locked" border relic]

[Puzzle hint: Cause of the black shadow]

There were only vague hints, and for Su Wen, the difficulty of this fourth puzzle was probably raised to a higher level.

But what if the shadow has a direct relationship with the locked border relic?

Then.

He now had a definite answer in his mind:

"Please help me get the distribution of all the point lights in the block outside Times Square.

as well as.

The three-dimensional architectural structure of Times Square in Manhattan.”

"You want to screen the real-time footage?"

She added with some doubt:
"First of all, let me remind you that the ordinary surveillance cameras on the streets of Manhattan are not connected to the psychic field analysis module. It is impossible to use them to find the person who used the border relic."

Hear her doubts.

Looking at the Chinese characters on the computer screen, Su Wen showed a confident and gentle smile:
“Real-time data?
No.

I only need the 'physical model', just this small part, and that's enough."

then.

He narrated calmly:
"Capon proposed a waveform algorithm in 1969 that is now widely used in the communications and energy industries.

The algorithm is based on the minimum mean square error criterion and maximizes the total energy output by the beamformer while constraining the gain in the target direction to remain unchanged.

Its name is;
【Beamforming Law】

That is based on the continuous superposition of enhancement zones and weakening zones formed by multi-waveform interference, forming a high-output energy band.

in other words.

According to the beamforming method based on signal structure, we can infer:

Forming the core position of the black shadow.

It is very likely that you can see the entire Times Square in Manhattan while still being in the "absolute vacuum zone" where the interference of point light sources is the weakest.

and so.

That must be the best place for the Ritual Promoter to be currently located!"
