Becoming A Tech Tycoon Begins With Regression novel Chapter 96

Chapter 96: More Tests.

"Alright then," Ethan said, "Let’s run more tests."

He walked towards the part of the lab that was lined with computers and some other digital stuff, plus cameras.

ONI’s other capability was accessing techs, well not at Athena’s level since it was not that ’sophisticated’, it was capable enough to use for basic discreet hacks.

For example,

Ethan stopped in front of the bank of monitors, their glow washing over his face in pale blue.

With a thought, he activated ONI’s function, with no keyboard or mouse and clearly no physical interaction, just a mental command and the deed displayed on the screens immediately flickered.

One of the cameras zoomed in on its own, focusing on a speck of dust on the far workbench. Another rotated slowly, panning toward the locked steel door at the far end of the lab. Ethan’s lips curled into a satisfied smile.

"Good," he murmured, his voice low but filled with satisfaction. "The signal interception’s is pretty clean."

He blinked twice in rapid succession. The overlay ONI projected across his vision switched, icon which were faintly visible along the edges of his sight appeared.

They displayed the battery levels of the cameras, bandwidth usage. Even the heartbeat signatures of the two guards Irina had left stationed outside the building.

ONI wasn’t Athena, but it was pretty convenient itself. Although, Ethan didn’t exactly make it to be Athena or even close, the hacking experience was just a bonus.

Why? Well...the corners of Ethan’s lips twitched. "Hands-free hacking. I could get used to this."

But there was one more capability of ONI he needed to test.

’System, activate my status screen’ he mentally Commanded but unlike previously nothing happened.

He gave a few more commands but there was still no response from the system causing him to smile.

He finally had a glimmer of privacy in his mind without worrying about the system listening in on everything he thought about.

That’s right, ONI was also meant to block out the system’s ability to read thoughts from one of his minds.

It wasn’t much of a precaution but it worked well enough, for if the system was one day revealed to be some evil alien tech that wants to take over his mind.

This firat result proved that he could block it out and that was enough for now.

Switching back to his ’main’ mind, he commanded again for the system to open his status screen and this time, it responded.

[Understood] a second later, his status screen was displayed, layered above ONI’s interface so Ethan had to close it for now.

[Displaying status....
