 		I asked Daniel if he knew what might be going on with LAINSY:
Quote:
Sorry if I am much involved in the recent happening around. I've been quite busy myself.

Last time I checked with the Dev Team, they say technician found some sort of virus in the system. It's quite sophisticated and beyond their own capabilities. Quite well adapted in fact, they say they find it quite suspicious that the virus was abel to run on LAINSY. You know, LAINSY is custom coded from the ground up, it's nothing like Windows or *nix computers. And yet, some one was able to write code for her. It is either someone who has worked for us previously created this or it could be some sort of internal sabotage.

They haven't fully examined the virus, yet, since they can't read the code. Apparently the virus is self-defensive and encrypted with encryption we haven't known, yet.

Anyhow, the suggestion of re-instating Scarlet, which happened to be Genus' and Emily's daughter Scarlet herself, is still deffered at the moment. Until then, we're not performing any drastic measures, but we might reboot her and restore her from a system snapshot that doesn't have the virus.

Any other questions you need to ask?
So it looks like there's a virus in LAINSY, and a reboot might be imminent.

 		Okay, I'm pretty sure that quadrants III & IV require addition, not subtraction, but I did it both ways. I got:

*if addition*
(3.2701)10
(3.1614334)7

*if subtraction*
(-25.5641)10
(-34.3643260)7

Anyone get the same?

 		I found the following, but I probably did something wrong somewhere. XD
I used addition.
(3.19811) 10
(3.12464) 7

...seeing if i can draw a diagram of what I did for checking...

 		I'm getting what Lystella is getting I believe. Here's my process so far. Translating and also inverting the numbers (still in Heptilon):
Code:
-------      |
 42   |  11  |
|-----|------|
 2144 |  13  |
-------------|
-------------|-------------
             |
             |
    263      |   340
             |
---------------------------
=[CODE
Converting from Heptilon to decimal:
Code:
-------      |
 30   |  8   |
|-----|------|
 767  |  10  |
-------------|
-------------|-------------
             |
             |
    143      |   175
             |
---------------------------
=[CODE

What I think is the formula then (agreed, punxtr that between quads III and IV it looks like addition): ((30*8 )+(767+10))/(175+143)= (240+777)/318=3.1981132 (in decimal) = 3.12464 (Heptilon)

 		I transcribed a glyph incorrectly. I failed to notice a vertical line in the greater quadrant III, making a six--not a five. I had 253 instead of 263. XD I even emailed that fail.

 		Update from Skyfall:
Quote:
Thank you for sending in the code. It seems they can reset their code faster then anticipated. We can't confirm the status of the criminal as of now, however, we don't think he can escape from the planet without being noticed.

We have already setup a defensive formation around the planet and will execute the transfer once we have entered the frequency code.

Here's how it works. Once the code is entered, we will fire the gravitonic generators onto the surface of the planet and generate a gravitonic field around it. Once it has stabilized, we will activate the time displacement machine and send the planet back to the future. We have two shots, one for Afyg and one for Byruniuku. However, in the event that our initial shot for Afyg fails, the Byruniuku will have to wait until we could establish contact with Oriru Serku to get additional shots.

We will execute the plan in 3 hours.

 		Looks like they're trying a fix. Can anyone identify the language at the bottom?
EDIT: Google Translate produces nothing useful.
Code:
LAINSY SYSTEM SNAPSHOT RESTORATION PROGRAM
------------------------------------------
WAITING FOR MANUAL SYSTEMS SHUTDOWN ... OK

CONNECTING TO BOOT MANAGERS ... OK

TRANSFERING OPERATION SCRIPT ... OK

LOADING LAINSY SSRP ... OK

COLLECTING SNAPSHOT DATA ... OK

VERFYING SNAPSHOT INTEGRITY ... OK

READING SNAPSHOT ... OK

RESTORING TO SNAPSHOT ...
(ACTION CAN TAKE HOURS TO COMPLETE)

Vse yeshche ne zakonchena. Vozmozhno, my
proshli, no nashe nasledie , chto
izmenilos' proshlom nikogda ne zabudet·sya.

 		I think it's Russian that has been romanized, and here's a rough translation:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Still not finished. Maybe we were, but our legacy that changed the past will never be forgotten.


EDIT: Happy Groundhog Day! \(^_^)/

 		Holy crap!!! It worked!!! Email from Skyfall...
Quote:
I am very pleased to inform you that the operation was successful! We already completed the transfer including Byruniuku. I guess it's all over now?

I am just awaiting for the restoration of the link for the Oriru Serku to be able to report back to them and so that they can pull me back into the future. Also, the Jhuku should be on Earth right now. Winston will be in contact soon, but as far as I am concerned everything I need to do here is done.

I'd like to personally apologize for all the troubles that has happened. Do you believe that there will be a chance that the catastrophe will never happen? An alternate universe where it never will happen? Like they say, the universe is vast and wide, and science is great and powerful that anything can happen in this universe. I hope we have the solution this time!

Before I end my contact, I'd like to brief you with the details about the criminal. He has been known across time to be using advanced science and technology beyond any of what we have seen. He is very dangerous if left with the right circumstances. Initially, we are not aware of how he is capable of such, but after the recent events we have then fully realized how. He has been tapping into the memory stored on the Jhuku to acquire advancement in science, both from our current interation and from previous ones.

We do not know how he is able to do this, but it seems he might have got hold of technology from Oriru Serku and is able to extract and read information from the Jhuku. It is quite possible that it he was already able to make contact with previous Jhukus to acquire so much. You see, each Jhuku has to bear an offspring to whom he will transfer the knowledge to. However, such knowledge can only be transfered once the offspring reaches the right age. From there, the transfer is nearly automated.

As of now, I can't confirm if the criminal is indeed sent to the future. Until I gain contact with Oriru Serku, I can't confirm anyting, yet. Winston will be in contact soon, and will update you once I can confirm things.

So, an offspring huh? I wonder about the boy in the pod then. And what happens to the Jhuku when he, or she, has passed on the information. This is awesome. I feel like we are on the verge of something big.

 		Regarding passing on the information, does Scarlet still hold the Jhuku's information?

Genus Orein wrote:
...way back when we had 45459, we transffered ALL information he had into Scarlet for safety. So basically, 45459 right now is an empty container of no use to the Orkudusu.

 		Good point Lystella. That's probably how the criminal is getting or was able to get the information in the first place. We probably need to ask Genus about that.
