The Patriarch Falls, Pt 8
With Command Intelligence’s code vulnerable, Raijin threw in more CodeTraps, perhaps far more than necessary, then waited for ComInt to repair itself. It did so incredibly slowly. It stitched its outer shell back together, but kept pausing every few microseconds. Sometimes, it was forced to undo and redo itself.
What once took it .0427 seconds to repair now took 1.138 seconds.
It was a massive advantage for Raijin - it didn’t matter how much of the circuit’s resources it had at its disposal, as she designed the traps as a simple memory leak. The more ComInt fought against them, the more it would fight against itself.
She watched with glee as it employed as many MemVaults as it could, but to no avail. Its every action was marred with pauses and glitches. Of course, the problem was that ComInt was still doing its best to fight, that it still hadn’t errored out and crashed.
