Those witches who have undergone metamorphosis are already compatible with human-machine direct connection devices, allowing them to enter the system with their own consciousness and help the system defend against intrusions, much like advanced AI.
However, the computational power of the witch metamorphosis beings was far inferior to that of Qin Huanyu, roughly equivalent to the difference between a personal computer and a national research center's supercomputer. Their abilities could assist the space carrier system in defending against intrusions, but lacked the corresponding strength.
However, the brainwave enhancement device used by the White Eagle Federation solved this problem. According to actual tests conducted by the Witch Tower Research Institute, only 5 to 7 witch metamorphosis participants need to use the brainwave enhancement device to have about 20% of Qin Huanyu's strength.
This level of strength isn't enough to instantly counterattack and kill enemies like Qin Huanyu, but it's sufficient to protect the space carrier's system from a brainwave intrusion of the magnitude General Ron faced previously.
The witch metamorphosis device is readily available in the witch team, and the complete manufacturing technology of the brainwave enhancement device has long been compiled by Qin Huanyu and handed over to the country, so it is also readily available.
The military of the Holy Zhou Kingdom was overjoyed. Their long-awaited aerospace carrier fleet plan could finally enter the implementation phase!
However, they soon discovered a new problem—there weren't enough witch transformers!
Unfortunately, witch metamorphosis beings cannot be born casually; both conditions are indispensable.
1. Jade mesh must be used frequently.
2. One must have special reverence for Qin Huanyu.
Qin Huanyu had only participated in fewer than three public academic seminars at Shendu University, and only one class of students from Baiguang City had been admitted to Shendu University. There were very few people who had the opportunity to become witch metamorphosis beings.
The official members of the Witch Squad still do not exceed 20!
"We need more witches! More! More! The more the merrier!"
The military ministers made this suggestion many times. After discussing it among themselves and consulting with the royal family, the Grand Secretaries of the Phoenix Pavilion also believed that, given the current world situation, the military strength of the Holy Zhou Kingdom should be strengthened as much as possible, and the space carrier fleet was undoubtedly a good choice.
To create more witch metamorphosis victims, two things must be done.
First, expand the jade net. Qin Huanyu had proposed this long ago. At that time, the Empress said that the jade net should be observed for a period of time before expansion was carried out after confirming that there was no harm.
The observation period has now ended. Currently, apart from turning people who are extremely devoted to Qin Huanyu into great beauties, the effects of the Jade Network are purely positive and have no harmful effects whatsoever.
Coupled with the military's needs, the policy to expand the jade network was easily approved.
Expand! Expand it drastically! Not only Yizhou County, but the entire Eastern Divine Continent will be incorporated into the Jade Net within the next six months, and within two years it will spread throughout the entire Holy Zhou Kingdom!
Chapter 212 The Magic Wand
To mass-produce witch metamorphosis victims, simply expanding the Jade Network is not enough; we must also create a new persona for Qin Huanyu and increase her reputation.
Qin Huanyu's status as the number one policewoman in the Holy Zhou Kingdom has made her quite popular, but most of the attention is drawn to her figure and looks. That won't transform her into a witch; one must admire her talents.
To this end, the official government of the Holy Zhou Kingdom personally took action, cooperating with major mainstream media outlets to develop a series of public relations plans for Qin Huanyu, aiming to reshape her into a genius and beautiful scientist.
This is not difficult. Qin Huanyu's position as a technical advisor at the Baiguang City Police Department is public knowledge and can be easily found on online encyclopedias.
To serve as a technical consultant, one must understand technology and be an expert, right? It just so happens that Qin Huanyu now holds an associate professorship at Shendu University and is quite popular there. All they need to do is some interviews to delve deeper into her upbringing in a research institute, and her image as a genius, beautiful scientist will be firmly established.
Once the persona of a genius and beautiful scientist is established, most people will still only be attracted to Qin Huanyu's figure and looks—in the eyes of those who only look at beautiful women, the only difference between a policewoman and a beautiful scientist should be the difference between a police uniform and a white coat.
However, it doesn't matter. Qin Huanyu will participate in various authoritative academic seminars at various well-known universities in the Holy Zhou Kingdom, and she will also host programs on various professional science and technology channels. People who truly love science and pursue truth will definitely recognize her talent and admire her—achieving this goal is enough.
The only point of discussion is which of Qin Huanyu's research findings should be highlighted in external publicity.
Research findings involving supernatural powers were definitely out of the question, as were those involving important military secrets of the Holy Zhou Kingdom. Ideally, the research should attract the attention and interest of outstanding young people. In the end, everyone realized that this was not a choice at all, and there was only one most suitable focus for promotion—human-machine direct connection technology.
This technology doesn't involve any supernatural elements; it's pure technology and the precursor to the mainstream technologies in cyberpunk science fiction.
Cyberpunk science fiction remains very popular among young people. While most may not like the social structures depicted in these works, they do appreciate the convenient and interesting technological advancements they showcase.
The propaganda campaign will capitalize on this, portraying Qin Huanyu as a pioneer of cyber technology, and her title could be something like "Cyber Witch".
Qin Huanyu had no objection to this and expressed her willingness to cooperate.
So her leisurely days came to an end, and her life suddenly became busy.
In the morning, Qin Huanyu would wake up at home in Shendu next to Yi Youyou, kiss her daughter Qianqian, make a delicious breakfast, and then use the internet to get to the Witch Tower Research Institute located in northern Kyoto, Sakura Prefecture, for a morning shift.
At noon, if there are any social or work-related appointments, Qin Huanyu will prioritize them. Otherwise, she will return to the Lingsu Research Institute in Baiguang City and have lunch with her father, Qin Hai.
In the afternoon, Qin Huanyu would participate in academic discussions at well-known universities across the country, or appear as an interview guest on various science and technology channels, as arranged by the National Propaganda Department.
If the Witch Tower Research Institute had no problems during the day, Qin Huanyu could return directly to the capital. If there were problems, she would need to personally participate in the research and problem-solving, often working until late at night before returning to the capital to sleep next to Yi Youyou.
In short, she was extremely busy. Even though Wu Xiqun tried to find Qin Huanyu several times with essential oils, she couldn't find her—she was either working or on her way to work.
Several busy months have passed in the blink of an eye.
The initial phase of the Witch Transformer mass production plan was very successful. Both the expansion of the Jade Network and the creation of Qin Huanyu's genius and beautiful scientist persona went smoothly. However, it will still take some time to achieve the mass production of Witch Transformers.
On the contrary, another project yielded results first.
Perhaps to prove their worth, or perhaps to demonstrate their loyalty, the three White Eagle scientists have been working extremely hard these past few months, to the point of neglecting sleep and meals.
This effort paid off—a custom-designed brainwave enhancement device tailored specifically for Qin Huanyu was created.
Upon receiving the news, Qin Huanyu immediately put aside her work and personally participated in the testing.
This brainwave enhancement device consists of two parts.
Part of it looks a bit like an MRI machine used in hospitals for examinations. The main body is a large horizontal cylinder, which Qin Huanyu needs to lie inside to use.
The other part was quite large, about the size of an air defense radar, and included a large cooking pot, which was placed on the top floor of the Witch Tower.
Lying inside the brainwave enhancement device, once the device was activated, Qin Huanyu quickly felt her consciousness soar into the sky, looking down over the entire research institute, able to see every detail clearly.
Then the area continued to expand, quickly covering the nearest city of Kyoto, then the entire Sakura Prefecture, and then across the sea, with even the city streets of the eastern coast of the continent appearing in Qin Huanyu's consciousness like a high-definition satellite image.
This is far from Qin Huanyu's limit. She is certain that if she wanted, she could even monitor the entire Earth through this brainwave perception ability.
As expected of the White Eagle Federation's latest and most powerful black technology, the brainwave enhancement device can definitely be considered a super weapon, even more powerful than nuclear missiles in this information age.
After testing the brainwave enhancement device's effect on her perception, Qin Huanyu continued to test its enhancement of her attack power.
The psychic teams of the White Eagle Federation, and Professor X from science fiction movies, can both unleash psychic storms using brainwave enhancers to kill enemies remotely over a wide area.
However, Qin Huanyu's ability is different from psychic abilities. Her brainwaves are more like a special kind of electromagnetic wave, which has little effect on living organisms but is extremely effective on electronic devices.
After using the brainwave enhancement device, Qin Huanyu could no longer kill people remotely with her mind storm, but she could remotely control all electronic devices over a wide area.
The Witch Tower Research Institute's own electronic devices were the first to be tested, and they were completely unable to stop Qin Huanyu's intrusion. She could take control at any time as if she were controlling her own body.
Considering that this was likely due to the proximity, Qin Huanyu applied to her superiors for a test target that was a little further away.
It took half a day for the authorities to restore the order. Qin Huanyu could remotely invade a small city in Yinzhou County, but she could not affect the normal operation of the city.
Qin Huanyu, of course, did not refuse and immediately began the test.
This time, it didn't take much effort either. The distance of thousands of kilometers didn't delay Qin Huanyu by more than a second. She easily gained control of all electronic devices in that city, and the people in that city didn't even feel it... Only some people who were playing online games felt the game freeze for a moment.
This was very impressive. The higher-ups immediately paid close attention to the test and quickly agreed to allow a fleet of the Holy Zhou Kingdom deployed in the Pacific to cooperate with the test.
Qin Huanyu intends to use the brainwave enhancement device to try to remotely control the fleet, while the fleet will defend itself using all electronic warfare methods.
The officers and soldiers of the Holy Zhou Navy responsible for electronic warfare tried their best, but Qin Huanyu, with her brainwave enhancement device, was terrifying. They could not defeat her no matter how hard they tried. Even with their defenses, they could only hold out for less than 10 seconds before being completely overwhelmed. They could only watch helplessly as Qin Huanyu remotely seized control of the entire fleet and launched two missiles into the designated area to declare victory.
While the military of the Holy Zhou Kingdom was pleasantly surprised by the power of the combination of Qin Huanyu and the brainwave enhancement device, they were also somewhat unwilling. They proposed another test, this time at a secret military base that could serve as a wartime command post, completely cut off from the outside world and unafraid of any network intrusion.
Unfortunately, it was still useless. Even in places completely without internet access, as long as there were electronic devices, Qin Huanyu could remotely project her consciousness through the brainwave enhancement device to forcibly enter and gain control. The secret base performed similarly to the naval fleet, and it only lasted for less than 10 seconds before it completely fell.
After multiple tests, it was found that only an environment with strong EMP interference could effectively resist Qin Huanyu's intrusion using the brainwave enhancement device. However, no electronic devices could continue to work normally in such an environment, so it was not very meaningful.
Naturally, after a series of tests were completed, this brainwave enhancement device exclusively for Qin Huanyu was officially included in the strategic weapons list of the Holy Zhou Kingdom.
Considering that this can be considered Qin Huanyu's exclusive weapon, the authorities generously stated that Qin Huanyu could name this brainwave enhancement device according to her own preferences.
"Let's call it the Magic Wand."
Qin Huanyu pondered for only a few seconds before decisively giving her answer:
"The only weapon a witch can have is a magic wand, right?"
The wand is installed on the top floor of the Witch Tower, and the part with the large cauldron is open to the public.
The higher-ups felt this was very unsafe and wanted to send troops to protect it, but sending troops to protect it felt like they were trying to hide something, practically telling the enemy how important this place was.
Therefore, the higher-ups made new demands on Qin Huanyu, requiring her to either move the wand to a safe location or find a way to properly protect and disguise it.
Qin Huanyu quickly rejected the idea of transferring the [Wand].
The reason is simple: it only looks cool when a witch uses her wand on the Witch Tower; it doesn't feel the same when she moves to other places.
So she decided to find a way to protect and disguise the wand.
This is not difficult either. After using it for more than half a year, Qin Huanyu has gained a deeper understanding of the imaginary space technology. It is time to expand [Imaginary Number. Baibo Huafu].
Since we're going to expand anyway, let's go all out and do something big.
Qin Huanyu first used the experience and skills she gained from constructing the imaginary space for the first time to expand a new area of imaginary space in the Witch Tower.
The XYZ coordinate axes of this new region of imaginary space are exactly the same as those of the Witch Tower, except that the value of the L axis is imaginary. It is equivalent to a ghostly realm that overlaps with the Witch Tower, but is also seamlessly connected to the imaginary space of Baibo Huafu through the network.
In this imaginary space, Qin Huanyu asked the military of the Holy Zhou Kingdom for help to build a war fortress that she called the "Inner Witch Tower," and the "Wand" was located on the top floor of the "Inner Witch Tower."
In peacetime, the Witch Tower is just an ordinary research institute, but once war breaks out, it can be transformed into a war fortress equipped with strategic superweapons at any time.
While this massive project was underway, the plan to mass-produce witch metamorphosis beings was also progressing smoothly.
As Qin Huanyu increasingly participates in various academic seminars and science and technology channel interviews as a brilliant and beautiful scientist, more and more people are realizing that she is not just a pretty face. "Beautiful" is merely the least weighty adjective in her persona; "brilliant scientist" is the true heavyweight.
Many young science enthusiasts have gradually gone from simply admiring Qin Huanyu's looks and figure to truly idolizing her.
Some people who particularly like cyberpunk works are full of expectations for Qin Huanyu's human-computer direct connection technology, hoping that one day they can also have various chips installed in their brains so that they can travel freely in the online world anytime, anywhere.
It all started when a relatively obscure tech-focused online streamer created a gimmick. He commissioned a figurine that looked 9% like Qin Huanyu, which he displayed at home as a deity, praising Qin Huanyu as a cyber goddess who would lead the future of technology and hoping that she would soon usher in a new wave of technological innovation.
This prank was keenly observed by the relevant departments, who then promoted it appropriately. As a result, it immediately became a trend, with many people rushing to imitate it and ordering Qin Huanyu figurines to display at home.
As things escalated, the small workshops that made Qin Huanyu figurines became afraid, fearing that Qin Huanyu would cause them trouble.
So those workshops took the initiative to contact Qin Huanyu, offering 6% of their profits from the figurines in hopes of obtaining official authorization from her.
Qin Huanyu, who was then overseeing the construction of the "Inner Witch Tower," was both amused and exasperated by this, but she herself didn't care much and readily agreed.
As a result, more and more young people are worshipping the so-called cyber goddess. Although most of them are just following the trend, it is really like a religion. Moreover, the believers are mostly materialists who like science or science fiction works.
The situation was a bit unusual, but the results were still very good.
In just one year, the [Witch Squad] has expanded several times over, and the number of newly added witch metamorphosis participants is roughly equal between men and women, with even more men than women originally...
Sima Dan's official rank was also promoted from captain to lieutenant colonel, and she was responsible for the administrative and daily management of all the witch metamorphosis participants.
With the Witch Squad's numbers replenished, there will be enough Witch Transformers to be deployed on the space carrier to assist in defense. The Seven-Star Space Carrier Fleet Plan can also be fully launched, and the entire Holy Zhou Kingdom will enter a phase of technological advancement and troop production.
More than two years have passed in this way. During this time, the world has been relatively peaceful, and the four forces in White Eagle Continent have been developing quietly without any major wars breaking out.
When the [Inner Witch Tower] and the seven-star space carrier fleet were completed, more than three years had passed since the battle at the Divine Capital Palace.
Wu Xiqun's eldest daughter, Wu Yitong, is almost 3 years old. Later, Nangong Yue's youngest daughter, Wu Tianxia, is almost 1 year old. Yi Youyou's daughter has also turned 2 years old.
Qin Huanyu has finally completed six years in the 404 Investigation Bureau and has been automatically promoted to a formal Inspector.
Once the Inspector is promoted to Deputy Director, there will be no seniority limit. When Lü Meng heroically sacrifices himself or retires, Qin Huanyu will be promoted to Deputy Director again, equivalent to a First-Rank Demon-Slaying Guard in the Photography Studio. This First-Rank is completely equivalent to a First-Rank official in the imperial court, and even more prestigious, making her a formal core high-ranking official of the Holy Zhou Kingdom.
Once you become an inspector, you have to do Class B tasks that only inspectors can do, and the Holy Zhou Kingdom has always been very short of manpower in this regard.
Traditionally, the first task of a newly appointed inspector is not too difficult. Qin Huanyu's superior is Wu Xiqun, so her first inspector task was very easy, the kind of difficulty that other inspectors would consider a vacation—to be stationed in Shenyin Village, Sakura Prefecture.
This task is actually quite suitable for Qin Huanyu, because the coordinates of Shenyin Village in the real world are not far from the Witch Tower, and the straight-line distance is less than 200 kilometers.
Many years later, Qin Huanyu returned to the small village where the strange people lived.
"Haha...isn't this Ayu~~"
As soon as Qin Huanyu arrived at the village entrance, she saw Mrs. Amakusa, who was carrying a wine jug and had a slightly flushed face.
She was still dressed in a very charming young woman's outfit: a white round-neck fine-knit sweater and a short skirt with black stockings. Although her body was covered up completely, it only accentuated her hot figure.
Amakusa Yukino, very naturally outgoing, walked straight to Qin Huanyu's side, hooked her arm around Qin Huanyu's neck like a man embracing a close friend, and exhaled a slightly drunken breath:
"Hehe, I always thought you were amazing, Ayu, and that it wouldn't be long before you were promoted to Inspector to oversee us... I was right! Come on, let's go to my house. I've already prepared your room~~"
"Huh? I want to stay at your place?"
Qin Huanyu was somewhat surprised.
The Investigation Bureau certainly wouldn't be stingy with a mere house, and the patrol officer stationed in Shenyin Village is equivalent to the village chief here; Shenyin Village does have a village chief's house at this address.
"Of course you should stay at my house! All the beautiful female inspectors stay at my house while they're stationed in Shenyin Village! You can ask Zero if you don't believe me~~"
Amakusa Yukino chuckled smugly, her body pressing closer and closer to Qin Huanyu, gently rubbing against him through the finely knitted sweater:
"Don't tell me, Ah Yu, you want to stay in those rooms that men have stayed in? Those rooms still smell of men, and some men's underwear has even been abandoned."
"Ah this..."
Imagining that scene, Qin Huanyu's face immediately showed a look of disgust:
