Chapter 146: Central Chamber
================================

[Multiple High Energy Readings up ahead.]

In the map Cortana showed, a cluster of red dots appeared and the further he went deeper, the more their numbers increased.

They were all coming from the walls but not on the main hallway towards the main entrance of the Central Chamber region where he was currently located.

[And Sir, there are events in the real world that you might want to know about regarding this invasion.]

This news caught Siva off guard.

Although Cortana always scans both in game and the world news simultaneously, there rarely is any news worthy of him being concerned about in the real world.

To be precise, 75% of what Cortana 'scanned' in the news in the real world are rarely connected to him and his goals so he discarded them almost all the time. For her to report about a few changes in the real world are definitely going to be connected to him and his actions.

Siva began to worry about it.

have I missed important news before?

'Send them to me.'

Cortana used [Focus] to deliver all the news direct to his brain and as it finished, Siva felt the 30sec headache —the cooldown— before he was able to think straight again.

But by then, he had already processed the news.

'A bounty? Are they monitoring this event live?'

[Most definitely not.]

'How do you know?'

[In my memory archives, there was a detail there regarding a «Project Eagle Eye» by the UNICORN, which supposedly is an independent component and a cluster program of the Janus Console. My records say that the World Government took away this part of the Janus Console for a redevelopment plan to be used as a monitoring software for the Android Program a few years back, but was destroyed by Master recently because of the danger of it developing its own violent AI-algorithms considering its exposure to the "Neural Tests" the UNICORN conducted to the men and women who took part in the said project. This file information has just only been recently unlocked in my database so no wonder we are only able to know of its existence today.]

recently unlocked...

meaning, when I remembered everything so that also means...

Panorama Corp's ability to monitor the game live has been stolen ever since...!!

'Cortana, reiterate to me what is the Janus Console and when was the Eagle Eye taken from it?'

[Janus Console, sir, is the main operating console panel of the entire world of Terroa. It controls all aspects of it starting from the weather to the very thoughts of its citizens. It was designed by Alfred Pegasus to interfere with all normal operations of this world as an independent universe. It is, in its very essence, the shackles that bind Terroa as a manmade Virtual Universe.]

'The component that defies Terroa as a game and as an alternate reality...'

[Yes sir. But according to my initial archives, a large event took place in the company at the same time of your first log into the game. And it was then that the rest of the core programs of the Eagle Eye are taken away from the console's core data frame.]
