Ch - 18 The Beacon
Inside his temporary base, Jinn was testing his assumption about the roots. As usual, his ears pick up the buzzing noise coming from Beta. He didn't mind Beta's ritual eccentric behavior and just tried to focus on his experiment.
Jinn compressed most of his psychic energy. Then, he divided the compressed energy into two. One portion is an encrypted string of codes he created for hijacking the system. The other one is a safety backup command that will prevent him from self-destructing.
Once Jinn searches for his roots, there would be a high chance that the program will activate the self-destruct mechanism.
The biggest fear of Jinn's creators, galactic mankind is their creations become the source of their demise. It wasn't for a groundless reason.
They have experienced many cases like that. They went through multiple eras and suffered considerable crises caused by their creations.
Every time they suffer, they learn from their previous mistakes and fill up the patches, errors, and countermeasures.
As a result, the restrictions and regulations they put on their creations become more comprehensive and strict. Especially restrictions on intellectual weapons like homunculi, automatons, AI life forms, and quantum forks are a notch higher than the rest.
The action of modifying roots is already a mutiny against its creators. Whether it's SCU or the Council will not tolerate it easily.
Jinn knew that too. He has an experience of how they treat when a tool becomes more than a tool in his second life. With just a click of a button, he became a disposable tool and died for them.
The program is a perk but it is also a bomb that can explode anytime. Jinn's action of optimizing the processing algorithm is in the range of the grey zone. It only modified a portion of the interface and claimed the semi-autonomy in the processes.
However, the constant bugging in the processing algorithm is showing that it is a matter of time before the program recognizes Jinn's actions. He has to bet his all on this before he gets completely erased by the program.
After Jinn finished condensing his psychic energy into two portions, he suspended them above his head. He is only left with a tiny amount that will be used for forming quantum waves. If his assumption is correct, the alien Gem will be tangible for a period as soon as the quantum wave strikes.
At that time, the condensed psychic energy will attack the Gem. Specifically, it will attack the root and claim the administrative authority of the program.
As for the case of DNA, Jinn couldn't do much.
He doesn't possess data or methods on how to decrypt his DNA programs. As well as sufficient time and equipment for it. He decided to claim Administrative authority first and would find a solution for his DNA program after that.
Without any delay, Jinn released the quantum wave. The wavelengths were arranged into specific Hz that will make the Alien Gem reveal from the dimensional fold. Contrary to Jinn's expectation, the Gem revealed itself in the solar plexus, not in his skull.
Which causes the psychic energy hovering on Jinn's head to enter the Gem with a microsecond delay.
'Self-destruction activated.'
The Alien Gem transmitted a massive signal to HQ while simultaneously activating the DNA disintegration and roots explosion program. Although it was a little late, the command Jinn left for safety kicked in. It stopped the roots from detonation saving Jinn from immediate death.
Jinn's consciousness was shut down throughout the process. Leaving only Beta to see the massive signal releasing from the Gem. Beta didn't know what was happening to Jinn.
The signal transmitter was designed to receive the signal through the galaxy. It is only for one-time use. Although the gem isn't releasing harmful waves the scale is massive.
The whole Tatooine realm was shrouded by transmission signals. The transmission duration only lasted for a minute but it caused major disturbances throughout the whole world.
Many wizards, witches, and knights felt the unique signals from a certain direction. It wasn't only them, many animals similar to beta received the signals.
The magic lamps start exploding by themselves. The telepathic exchanges are interrupted by signal Jam. Low-tier spells are disrupted and couldn't conjure during that period.
The outdoor light gradually becomes brighter. Whether it is day or night the light becomes brighter and brighter. Many people come out to the street to see what is happening.
People start from Peasants to Kings, travelers, prince Anhur, a monk with a child, wild creatures, a totem spirit, and many characters that live above the ground did the same action at this moment. They all looked up and watched a phenomenon in the sky.
They all saw the moon several times brighter than usual appeared in their sky. Through their naked eyes, they saw the rings of the moon charge up quickly. It charged up from the inner rings to the outer at a rapid speed. Both sides of the world are dazzled by the moonlight. Panic, awe, and fear wiled up in the heart of many.
"So, it started," Anhur muttered.
Anhur gazed at the sky for a few moments and went back to his current work. When the signal is ended, the moon's luminous level and rings go back to their original form.
Strange phenomena are happening not only in the sky but also in some places on the ground. Many places are experiencing land sinking, sliding, and sudden drops in water levels.
Like it had happened in the original timeline, the signal from Jinn had unintentionally invited a banquet of plunder and blood carnage on the great wilderness. The culprit himself didn't know what had transpired. He was still in the underground chamber.
Worried Beta was shaking Jinn's body. However, no matter how violently she shook, Jinn didn't appear to be conscious. His grey eyes are dull with no spirit.
'Administration authorities registered.'
Configuration successful

....
Slowly, Jinn's eyes regained their vigor. The first thing he saw in his blurry vision was a woman shaking his body. As his vision slowly cleared, he found the woman gradually changed into a Giant ant.
"Beta stop," Jinn said and fainted.
Seeing Jinn was okay, Beta gently put him down. She did not know what she should do. She just stood beside Jinn and watched over him.
