"Can I take a look?" Yang Tian was very interested in the battle between the rune programs.
The strange program said, "No problem!"
"Master, I have bad news for you. The other party also has a … tool like me."
After the strange program destroyed the illusion, Xiao Fu naturally sensed it and immediately reported it to the Talisman Lord.
It was only then that the strange program was exposed.
When the Talisman Lord heard this, his eyes widened. The expression on his face was not one of surprise, but of horror.
Ever since he created the rune program, the Talisman Lord had been very proud. He believed that no matter how big this world was, he was the only one who could create a rune program.
This was the Talisman Lord's greatest advantage. If not for the fact that his lifespan was up, he would have long become the most powerful lifeform in this world.
But now, Xiao Fu was telling him that there was actually another rune program …
"What's its origin?
How does it compare to you?
Can you swallow it? "
The Talisman Lord nervously asked three questions in a row.
Xiao Fu said, "I don't know, I don't know, I don't know."
In response to the Talisman Lord's questions, Xiao Fu answered "I don't know" three times in a row.
Compared to the strange program, Xiao Fu was much more wooden.
The Talisman Lord forced himself to calm down. When he thought about how Yang Tian came from the same world as him, he guessed that the rune program that Yang Tian possessed must be related to the first generation of rune programs.
The first generation of rune programs had been destroyed. This was something that the Talisman Lord had personally confirmed. After destroying the first generation of rune programs, in order to prevent anyone else from creating rune programs, he had not hesitated to use the Mighty Sky Warship that he had built to trap a group of subordinates who knew this secret.
The Talisman Lord did not believe that Yang Tian could create a rune program like himself. This required perseverance and luck, and luck played a large part in it.
Then, the rune program that Yang Tian possessed must be related to the first generation of Xiao Fu. It was most likely that Yang Tian had obtained a portion of the program.
As for who was more powerful, that would only be known after a fight …
While the Talisman Lord was pondering, Xiao Fu had already begun fighting with the strange program.
The strange program used a special method to display the battle scene in Yang Tian's mind.
The programs did not have a physical body. Through the energy lines of the natural rune array, they soon collided with each other.
A black sphere appeared in Yang Tian's mind.
The surface of the black sphere was covered with white and green lines that intertwined with each other, constantly expanding and shrinking.
The strange program had tried its best to express itself in a form that Yang Tian could understand, but Yang Tian still could not understand it. However, he knew that the green lines were the duplicates released by the strange program.
As for the white lines, they were the duplicates released by the Talisman Master's Talisman Master program, Xiaofu.
The black sphere, on the other hand, was the battlefield created by the strange program and Xiao Fu. It was like the memory space of a computer.
The battle didn't last long. The white threads on the surface of the black sphere were quickly swallowed up by the green threads. In a few minutes, the black sphere turned into a green sphere.
Immediately after, the green sphere transformed into several green lines that followed Xiao Fu's path.
In Yang Tian's mind, the scene of the green lines rapidly traversing the black tunnel appeared.
The strange program took advantage of Xiao Fu's defeat to locate Xiao Fu. Once it found Xiao Fu, it would be equivalent to finding the Talisman Lord.
However, the black tunnel suddenly lit up. A fork appeared in the road ahead. Several green lines immediately split into two groups and rushed forward.
At this moment, two images appeared in Yang Tian's mind.
A fork in the road, another fork in the road!
Two lines turned into four, four lines turned into eight, eight lines turned into sixteen...
After chasing for a while, the strange program knew that the other party had already made preparations before coming. It would not be easy for it to find the specific location.
The strange program's computing speed was very fast. It could search for hundreds of millions or even billions of paths at the same time. In the end, it would be a competition of computing speed.
However, this kind of competition was very time-consuming, and it was in a passive situation. Thus, the strange program voluntarily withdrew.
In addition to the previous illusion, this was the second time they had fought.
The first round could be considered a draw. The second round ended with the strange program winning by a small margin.
Yang Tian knew that the images displayed in his mind could not directly and truly show the specific battle method. The process seemed simple, but it was actually very complicated.
Xiao Fu's attack this time was more of a probing nature.
While the strange program was chasing, Xiao Fu had already returned to the rune mechanical beast's body.
"You've lost!"
Hearing Xiao Fu say that he had lost, the Talisman Lord was shocked again.
Before this battle, he had actually felt somewhat lucky. He had thought that the broken rune program segment could not compare to the first generation rune program's copy.
He did not expect that the other party's rune program would be on par with Xiao Fu's.
The Talisman Lord had also 'seen' the battle between the strange program and Xiao Fu through a special method. After a moment of silence, he said, "This is a competition of computing speed. In fact, you are on par with it. Go again and compete with its devouring speed.
Remember to use the copy to protect yourself from harm. "
"Yes!" Xiao Fu replied.
The rune mechanical beast controlled by Xiao Fu once again stabbed its chelicerae into the energy lines of the natural rune array.
In order to prevent the other party from following the lines, Xiao Fu had not only set up a defensive program, it had also 'disconnected'.
After giving an affirmative response, Little Talisman followed the path of the natural talisman formation toward the location of the strange program.
The strange program had been 'online' all this time. Dealing with Xiao Fu was one thing, but it also needed to obtain information about the natural rune array. That was the most important thing.
When Xiao Fu approached, it was detected by the strange program.
There were tens of millions of paths from Little Talisman's starting point to the location of the bizarre program. As they neared, Little Talisman's clones split into two, then four, then eight …. Clones like that required power, and were powered by a natural talisman spell formation. Each clone was as powerful as the main body.
This was why the Talisman Lord wanted Xiao Fu to compete with the strange program in devouring.
Rune programs and digital programs were constructed differently. Digital programs had to be converted into electronic, optical, and other signals before they could be transmitted through conductors.
This kind of transmission method could not directly collide with each other. The battlefield was inside the computing chip and the memory.
Rune programs, on the other hand, were different. Countless rune energies were shuttling through the energy lines of the natural rune array. Once they met, there would be an actual energy collision. The energy lines of the natural rune array were the battlefield.
At this moment, a grand image appeared in Yang Tian's mind. Countless tiny white threads were rushing toward the strange program.
The image of the strange program was Xiao Long.
Xiao Fu was using the copy, while the strange program was using the main body.
