Chapter 13: 13-Info Dump part 6 [1,507 words]
Once all of Davion's affairs have been settled, he holed up in his lab within the Bat cave where Augur's 'Brain' is stored.
Davion postponed all of Augur's current operations in order to upgrade him.
While he pulled out Augur from the current system within the enterprise, he installed the 2nd-rate AI to manage the facilities.
Davion went all out in the isolation process, disconnecting Augur from the net, removing any tech that can transmit or receive anything from the outside.
If Augur suddenly goes Skynet during this procedure.
And thanks to recent events regarding the 'Terminator' and 'Parasites' he has more than enough to push Augur past his planned boost.
The guy will literally transform into one of Ben 10's alien forms [Upgrade] if all goes well.
Agony, Phage, Scream, Lasher, and Scorn are the symbiotes gathered from Life Foundation.
Thanks to Venom's information identifying which symbiotes arrived in the 'Invading Squad' of Riot.
The first four are one of the recipes required to create a 'Hybrid' symbiote along with Riot.
This is now impossible to happen since Davion's clone made sure of removing Riot's existence PERMANENTLY.
He had to… because things in the Marvel tend to come back from the dead.
Greatly angering 'Lady Death' herself causing multiple super-villains to pop up trying to please her.
While Scorn is the one, he needed for upgrading Augur as this symbiote is a machine/symbiote hybrid.
Scorn is more weapon technology-enhanced in simple terms machine/symbiote hybrid, thus being able to fuse itself with a different kind of technology.
Since its birth was linked robotically, being able to fuse itself with different kinds of weapons thanks to her [Techno-Hybrid] ability.
Granting her; [Technological Possession], allowing her to transcend her physical form and exist within technology (such as computers and robots).
[Scanning] can scan anything and analyze the data and information that is gathered, including not just technological and digital subjects, but also subjects that are biological, chemical, etc.
That Davion greatly requires for the stuff, he wants to reverse engineer to suit his needs.
Shit. This symbiote is literally Marvel's version of [Upgrade] with all the technological abilities she possesses.
Or maybe it was where [Upgrade] was inspired from, either way, with the symbiote combined with Nimrod's knowledge on future tech.
Davion will be eons ahead of his planet or even alien tech for that matter.
『Davion』 "Alright everything seems to be in order. Are you ready Augur?" asks the supercomputer in front of him.
『Augur』 'All systems are clear, and Skynet protocol is up sir.' Responds through a window shown on the monitor screen.
Augur can only respond through text on the monitor as Davion removed all audio outlets connected to the supercomputer.
For there is also a possibility to transfer data through sounds, vibrations, and frequencies.
『Davion』 "All right first step, symbiote purification."
Pulling out a slimy dark purple colored goo from within his shadows still in stasis, fresh from his Storage (Darkforce Dimension).
He was prepared this time since his first test on Venom during their encounter proves this will become annoying.
Then wearing a customized noise-canceling earmuff for the oncoming scream once he starts removing the symbiotes consciousness.
*SCREEEEEEECCCH*
He slowly cycled [Light Force] through the slimy goo increasing the intensity every cycle followed by a small [Dark Force].
Since all symbiotes were birthed from the shadow of the living abyss {Knull} the God of symbiotes and ruler of the [Shadow Realm] dimension.
Therefore, a huge vulnerability regarding light-based energies.
Because his aim is to remove the consciousness not erasing the damn thing out of existence hence the use of [Dark Force] to keep its form intact though clearly reducing the mass each cycle.
The scream was like a very high pitch scream of a witch slowly dying, being managed to still go through the earmuffs.
Though Davion found it annoying hearing it scream and watching it writhe around like a worm bathing in salt.
It still helped Davion know when to finally stop when the goo is now the size of a tennis ball and light purple hue.
Removing his earmuffs, he cycled the light energy a couple of times just to make sure it's finally gone.
He bonded it to himself, before feeding it enough dark energy to return it back to basketball-sized goo.
While he double checks with his telepathic abilities for any crumbs within that could maybe still hiding.
Better be careful than sorry later right?
Anyways, finished with his follow-up inspection. He willed a tendril elongate from his left arm to connect to Augur's 'Brain' (Supercomputer).
As he manually controls the [Techno-possession] ability of Scorn with his [Technopathy] to absorb Augur and install him as the new consciousness of the symbiote.
『Augur』 (Integration process… 5%...)
He announces in Davion's mind as the supercomputer was being devoured slowly.
(20%...)
(55%...)
(80%...)
(100%!)
*Ding!*
"Assimilation has been completed!" announces with glee. Clearly nervous himself as he was afraid, he might get deleted if anything went awry with the procedure.
『Davion』 "Alright, do the necessary checks if everything went perfectly and that security protocols are still there in your system."
Waiting for what seems to be almost half a day, he patiently waited as Augur clear all the checks one by one.
Notifying his creator every time it checks out to placate both of their worries.
Whereupon finally getting clearance that all systems are operating smoothly and properly, he proceeded to the next step.
Absorbing Nimrod…
He jumps up and down while shaking his head and sweaty hands to calm down himself.
Davion knows that this is the most crucial step compared to the previous ones.
Since this one possesses greater danger than an AI/Symbiote going rogue compared to a full-blown active 'Terminator.'
Whose goal is to end all life that contains mutations.
He checked first with Sebas outside the isolation room if all his clones are currently in 'Discretion protocol' just in case things escalate quickly.
Pulling the dude out from the same 'Storage' room Davion placed Nimrod and the rest of the dangerous creatures.
He steels his resolve as he remembers a quote from his past life's wuxia novels 'Nothing ventured, nothing gained'.
Again, extending another tendril to his target, this time he made sure to cover the whole thing first to prepare the possibility of it suddenly activating.
『Davion』 "All right, Augur begin the integration process." This time he let Augur control the [Techno-Possession].
This is a big mistake on his part, as he forgot one step in the process…
And that is the removal of the consciousness, especially for this one.
Since [Forge], another genius-level Meta in tech innovation determined that Nimrod was classified as a "Class Omega (intruder)" by Forge's defense systems.
That's even one of the best defense systems existing in the future, so what made Davion think his current one was gonna last against such a thing?
As such, once Augur began the process Nimrod quickly activated in self-defense and started counter assimilation.
『Augur』 (Error! Error!)
(The target AI has been activated and started reversing the process.)
(Requesting immediate response. All systems diverting in defense mode.)
(Integration of my system to his is already at 70% until take-over…)
Upon hearing that Davion, quickly jumped up in a panic at the speed of Nimrod's action from just waking up that wasn't even a full minute when he heard the error.
『Davion』 "Shit, shit!"
Immediately going flash speed with [Time Force], extending nanosecond to zeptosecond the shortest unit of time ever recorded.
"What do I do? What do I do?" panicking as his brain went overdrive to find a way of solving the issue.
"Dammit, dammit! I got overconfident, and excited since everything was going smoothly."
"And forgot to remove his AI like how I removed Scorn's consciousness."
"FUCK!" seeing no other way than to seal him back in another dimension, he immediately took action.
But things didn't go as planned, again…
As he is currently bonded with Augur's symbiote and was monitoring the process with [Technopathy].
Nimrod used that connection to possess Davion's mind quickly without the other being aware, during the time he was busy thinking his options in flash speed.
And once he did notice it, he accidentally changed one word that was going in his thought.
That activated his one forgotten ability within the Status system gifted to him by Truck-kun.
『Davion』 (Time to put you in my-…)
His thoughts were interrupted when he sensed the bombardment his mind is suddenly under after returning to normal time.
『Davion』 (-Inventory.) and with a silent 'Oh crap!'.
Both [Augur's Symbiote] and [Nimrod] still merged, suddenly turned into cards, and were beamed at his forehead.
Then placed within his 'Status Screen' within his [Mindscape], worsening the situation.
It was like when you know people were trying to break into your house whose security controls are on a remote.
Then you accidentally opened the garage in haste instead of pressing the button to lock all doors.
Yeah, same 'It was at this moment he knew… he FUCKED up!"
