Chapter 95 Neural Matrix
"Unfortunately, not at this time."

Li Ang shook his head, indicating that Otto's idea could not be realized.

The program activities performed by the Relic chip in V's brain are quite complicated, and even if two AI White Queens were used to cut and separate the data at the same time, it would not work.

If the AI ​​White Queen wants to perform a perfect data separation operation, it must at least be upgraded to level 4 or 5!
But the current AI White Queen is only level 3, and this is the result of Ultra's hard work for half a year.

According to Ott Cunningham's breeding schedule, V will have to wait at least one or two years before he can undergo the neurological surgery to separate his soul.

But by that time, the daylily will be cold.

Leon's words were like a bolt from the blue to V and Ultra. If even LA couldn't solve the problem of the Relic chip, then they could only prepare for the worst!
"V, I'm sorry. I really tried my best."

Ott Cunningham felt disheartened. If they really followed her plan to deal with the Relic chip, one of V and Johnny Silverhand would have to die.

But no matter who dies, Otto's conscience will feel deeply uneasy, and it is difficult for her to make such a choice concerning other people's life and death.

Seeing V and Ultraman showing painful and desperate expressions, Leon couldn't help but shook his head and said, "You two, I haven't finished what I want to say yet, why don't you listen to my solution first."

Li Ang's words rekindled V's hope of survival. He hurriedly asked Li Ang, "Can I still be saved?!"

"Of course there is hope, but my method may be a little different from what you two think."

V and Ultra were a little confused by what Leon said, because the result of processing the chip would either be the death of V or the death of Johnny Silverhand, there was no third possibility.

Under V's puzzled gaze, Leon took out the Chapter 6 operating system prosthetic device and introduced the main functions of this device to V and Ott Cunningham in detail.

But after hearing that the function of Chapter 6 is to hack into electronic equipment, V's expression became depressed again: "Mr. Leon, I admit that this thing is indeed powerful, but I don't need this prosthesis."

"If you intend to use me as a guinea pig for your experiment, I would rather jump from here, but before I die I will try my best to find someone else to take my place with me."

V's voice sounded a little sad.

Obviously, he thought that Leon was going to borrow the body of a dying man to try out LA's new prosthetic product, but V could never accept such a request!

"V, this thing is strictly for AI. I will first implant the AI ​​White Queen into this prosthetic device, and then install it into your operating system."

Li Ang explained to V patiently.

Through the data processing capabilities of AI White Queen and the ultra-high performance of Chapter 6, Leon will let AI White Queen build a neural matrix in V's brain.

When Johnny Silverhand's consciousness data is overwritten and downloaded by the Relic chip program, the data will first remain in the AI ​​neural matrix and then be diverted back by the AI ​​White Queen.

This process will continue to loop, so that the program task of the Relic chip will always be stuck at the current progress.

Johnny Silverhand's consciousness data will not be damaged in any way, the download process will just be repeated in a loop.

To put it simply, the AI ​​White Queen can freeze Johnny Silverhand's consciousness at 50% of the download progress. It's like downloading a movie, always stuck at the last 1% and unable to complete the final download.

This is another function of Chapter Type 6, to build an AI neural matrix to fight against soul killers!

When Leon proposed this method, Otto Cunningham's worldview was once again strongly impacted. She racked her brains but could not imagine that the AI ​​White Queen could be used in this way.

But in this case, it is equivalent to two souls living in V's body, and V's body will always maintain extremely strong prosthetic tolerance!
The method is a good one, but I don’t know if V can accept it. This is what Ultra is most worried about.

"Mr. Leon, what you mean is... Johnny is still in my body, and he would say a few words from time to time?"

The corners of V's mouth couldn't help but twitch twice. This method seemed to be better than Otto's separation surgery plan, but the core problem was still not completely solved.

Johnny Silverhand, that damn stupid terrorist, is still in his mind, and V is still facing the threat of death by being possessed by Johnny!

"Do not."

Li Ang shook his head and told the truth: "It's not just one or two words. Next, you will see him in person, hear him chattering in your ear, and even..."

"He may try to wrest control of your body from you, but as long as you persist in resisting, Johnny can't do anything to you unless you allow him to control your body."

In fact, from the moment V opened his eyes and woke up, the download of Johnny Silverhand's consciousness data had reached 50%.

If there were no AI White Queen and the Chapter 6 Neural Matrix as a line of defense, then every day that passed, Johnny's consciousness data download progress would increase a little.

The increase in download progress will directly affect V's body by causing him to feel dizzy and have severe pain. In worse cases, he will vomit blood and then suddenly faint.

Once V starts to vomit blood, it means that V's body is strongly rejecting his original personality!
If it really comes to that, even with the use of AI neural matrix, it will probably be too late.

"So... from now on, I have to see that stupid bastard Johnny chattering in front of me every day, day after day, year after year?"

At this moment, V didn't know what to say. The good news was that his life was saved, and there was a real chance that he would live to be a hundred years old and become a legend in Night City.

But the bad news is that no matter what he does, Johnny Silverhand will be watching silently from the side, and may even make a comment from time to time!
"Yes V, I can't separate you two right now because LA's AI technology isn't up to the task yet."

"The only thing I can do now is to pause the Relic chip's program process, allowing you to survive in this special state of two souls in one body."

"Of course, even the best equipment can malfunction, so you have to regularly check and maintain the Chapter 6 Prosthesis, lest a hole in the AI ​​neural matrix leaks, causing Johnny's consciousness to continue to overwrite and download."

"Besides... Johnny Silverhand is not a stupid idiot. He is actually a very good person. I believe you will get used to his presence slowly."

After saying that, Leon patted V on the shoulder. This was the limit of what he could do now, and it was also the only best option for V to survive at this moment.
