Chapter 415: All-out war
The further they went, after moving away from the geocentric probe, the temperature in the surrounding space was getting lower and lower, Shu Yungui and Cheng Sikong opened the emergency light-emitting tube on the sleeve of their combat uniforms, and they could clearly see the white breath they exhaled in the faint light.
"There is not enough oxygen underground, pay attention to control the breathing rate, there are only two of us here, if something happens, it will be impossible to make the sky and the earth not work."
Shu Yungui said "um", although the underground road has been artificially treated, it is still very difficult to walk, and many places on the wall are seeping water, and he often touches the mud.
After walking for more than half an hour, they finally left the area where the robotic arm was located, passed through a safety valve, and came to a control room, where the console used to manually control the robotic arm and adjust the position of the underground probe in the early days of the energy supply tower was stored.
The countertops were very old, but they were clean, there was very little dust in the underworld, everything looked as if it had been used yesterday, except that all the electronic devices were sealed, and the time to seal them was centuries old.
As the muse develops more and more advanced, the intelligent mastermind system gradually replaces the vast majority of artificial operating systems, and the energy tower as its nest, the muse naturally does not want people to enter and exit the tower often, so it has become the first place to be installed with the intelligent masterbrain control system, and the lighthouse government can remotely control the robotic arm and underground probe here in the lighthouse office building without leaving home.
And now, the control of this robotic arm should be taken back by the muse, even without the input of other energy sources such as kyanite, it can still rely on this geocentric probe to draw energy for itself, at least to support the normal operation of those equipment on the top of the tower.
"Severing the link between the Geocentric Probe and the Muse Mastermind may slow down the explosion." Shu Yungui proposed.
"Tang Yue, they didn't come down, what are you going to do?"
Cheng Sikong did not object to his proposal, but how to unlink it was a problem, neither of them was very good at this kind of decoding and deciphering work, and without the support of people from the technical department, it was almost impossible to confront a strong artificial intelligence like Muse.
"There's no time to go to the technical department for help now, they also have their own tasks, we can solve them here by ourselves."
Shu Yungui moved his wrist, chuckled at Cheng Sikong, and said, "Although we don't know how to decipher the program, we have the ability that artificial intelligence is most afraid of."
Cheng Sikong raised his eyebrows, Gu Zi took a few steps back, set up an "original space" for himself, and then made a "please" gesture to Shu Yungui in the space, indicating that he could exert the ability that this artificial intelligence is most afraid of-
Violent.
With Shu Yungui's punch, a deafening sound sounded deep underground, Shu Yungui punched the tempered glass window used to look at the mechanical arm in the control room, in the flying glass ballast, the force of this punch has not weakened, it smashed onto the mechanical arm impartially, the huge mechanical arm with a diameter of more than twenty meters was smashed into a metal cake with a punch, like a piece of dog skin plaster tightly attached to the rock layer leading to the center of the earth, and the underground probe was completely sealed in the center of the earth.
The steel twisted, the pipes shattered, and various parts fell to the ground, Shu Yungui waved his hand, turned back to Cheng Sikong and shrugged, and said, "Fortunately, it only took thirty percent of the force."
Even if Jiang Ruzhou is only a second-order variant, but with this powerful ability, he can become an intermediate management level in IAFA, and reach a level with Kuang Jiaping, but you must know that Kuang Jiaping is the only perceptual mutant found in the whole star field at present, and its rarity is already at the level of a national treasure.
The mechanical arm was destroyed, the alarm sounded in the underground space, and the muse must have learned of the news here at the first time, Shu Yungui and they had to speed up their pace and seize the power core before the muse could react further.
Passing through the control room and going up, you will see the heat converter that has begun to slow down, without the mechanical arm and energy supply pipes, the underground probe can no longer provide energy to the heat energy converter, the rotation speed of the converter that should never stop has been reduced, and a red alarm flashes around the machine
lights, and the operation interface is constantly reminded of the warning of "insufficient supply of raw materials".
Shu Yungui and Cheng Sikong hurriedly swept past this machine, there is no heat energy supply, this machine is just a piece of scrap metal, there is no need to waste more time here.
Cheng Sikong's long legs could step through the five steps in one step, and he took the lead to the gate of the gate leading to the power core, stopping and waiting for Shu Yungui to return.
Shu Yungui was not much slower, and he quickly caught up, the gate had been locked remotely by the muse, but it was just ordinary thickened steel, not the special toughness steel on the outside of the Thorn Goddess Energy Supply Tower, which could be easily solved with the power of the mutation ability.
This time Shu Yungui got started directly, he held the safety valve on the gate, and with one hand in the state that the valve had been rotated and locked, the hard steel used to cast the valve "bang" and dented five fingerprints, and then the heavy gate was forced open by Shu Yungui.
The resistance devices on the four corners of the gate all collapsed, and fell in front of Cheng Sikong with a "clang", and the noble Cheng Dagongzi raised his legs elegantly and kicked the stainless steel casting resistance device to the lower level. ap.
The resistance device rolled down with a "jingle bell", and a pleasant echo sounded in the empty underground space, Shu Yungui easily pushed the gate to the widest, and the light in the room behind the gate poured out.
It was the light that belonged to the power core, indicating that the power core that was removed from the Zero 3 immigration spacecraft was still in normal use.
But when Shu Yun returned to look at it, he was stunned, because this power core was far from the power core in his memory.
He glanced at Cheng Sikong, and saw a shocked look on Cheng Sikong's face, proving that he was not dazzled, and there was indeed something wrong with the power core in front of him.
"The power cores used by the twelve immigrant ships must have been built in the same batch, right? There's no question of size, right?"
Shu Yungui stepped forward, looked at the power core floating in mid-air, slowly stretched out his hand and drew it, and said blankly, "Did this core come out to work before it was an adult? It's not as big as the palm of my hand."
The young and pitiful power core was only the size of Shu Yungui's palm, and it looked like it could easily be carried away in his pocket, Shu Yungui really couldn't believe that this gadget could support the 03 immigration spacecraft to complete the star field migration, and also provide source power for the operation of so many energy supply pipelines in the Thorn Goddess Energy Supply Tower.
"It can't be some kind of trick of the muse that is deranged from the five senses, right?"
Shu Yungui hesitated, "The power core we got on the Ninth Star is larger than an entire amphibious warship, and it even takes the cooperation of several ships to get it from the bottom of the sea when it is lifted, and now this ...... It seems a little too disrespectful to the name "Power Core."
It's a pity that the power core obtained from the ninth star consumed a lot of energy when it finally destroyed the ninth star, and after being brought back by Tiadis Sky Island, it was installed in the underground fortress to provide daily energy supply for the people, serving as a power bank for Takes, a place with almost no energy storage, for so long.
Judging from the remaining energy of the power core, there is a high probability that it will not be able to support the Dawn to make a spatial jump, and everything on the Tuk Star needs to be powered up, and the power core cannot be dismantled at this time, if it weren't for this reason, Shu Yungui and they wouldn't have to spend a lot of effort to grab another power core to go back.
"Can something so small restart the Aurora?"
Shu Yungui hesitated a little, the size of the Dawn was obviously one heaven and one underground compared to the volume of this power core.
"Xie Maohua swore that he could, if he couldn't restart it, he would apologize with death." Cheng Sikong said unceremoniously.
Shu Yungui sighed and said helplessly, "What's the use of apologizing with death? You also said that this underground space has been sealed for many years, and Xie Maohua is afraid that he has never seen the power core."
"Xie Maohua's question, what are you going to do now? The size of the power core is obviously not enough to restart the Aurora, and there is no other power core to replace it at present, and it is estimated that it will take a long time to rebuild the core, perhaps more than the time to repair the Aurora
long."
Shu Yungui frowned, the situation on the Salamander Star was already imminent, and it would be more dangerous to wait for one more day, he could hardly continue to endure it, and he couldn't wait to fly to the Salamander Star immediately to rescue his parents and the innocent people who had been deceived by the Lighthouse government.
"Take this power core away first, and then find a way, the battle situation outside is critical, we can't continue to delay time here."
Shu Yungui immediately made a decision, reached out to grab the power core, and the "God Presence" condensed an energy shell on his palm, protecting his body from being burned by the power core.
The small power core weighed only about ten pounds, and after seeing Shu Yungui get the power core, Cheng Sikong immediately prepared to "rewrite the coordinates" of the two back to the ground, but at this time, the gunshots suddenly rang out in his ears, and a bullet came from the side of the two, if Shu Yungui hadn't pushed Cheng Sikong in time, the bullet would have pierced his shoulder.
The sound of the gun was not silenced, indicating that the person using the weapon was not familiar with the operation of the firearm, Shu Yungui looked towards the place where the gun sounded, and saw a figure hiding in the shadows, and after a closer look, he found that it was Zong Dingbang, the chief of the lighthouse government who had disappeared for a long time.
Shu Yungui's eyes widened, Zong Dingbang trembled violently, Cheng Sikong was even more angry, and directly stepped forward and dragged Zong Dingbang out from behind the gate.
"Why are you here?! The Muse let you come?!"
The gun in Zong Dingbang's hand was also knocked out, and although he was scared, he still followed his neck and said, "Muse...... The muse said you're going to come and grab the power core, and it's going to keep me, let me guard here, and if I can kill any of you, I'll ...... I will never die!"
"Huh?"
Cheng Sikong, who was still very angry just now, suddenly laughed, he grabbed Zong Dingbang's collar and sneered, "Eternal life? What do you think eternal life looks like? Maybe I should really take you idiot to the top of the tower to see, the so-called immortality is to pry open your heavenly spirit cover while you are still alive, dig out your brain, put it in the cultivation chamber, and then fill the tube, so that you become a muse of the human brain computer, and live forever in this form."
Zong Dingbang's face turned white, his lips spurted, and he said in a trembling voice, "You, you are talking nonsense! If the Muse is a liar, how can so many generations of Twelve Wise Brain Leaders be willing to serve it?!"
Cheng Sikong threw him to the corner, he stood up, a huge shadow shrouded Zong Dingbang, only to hear him sneer: "Your stupid brain is not uncommon, it is likely that it is just for you to delay time, if we don't come, you will be starved to death in this invisible underground, and no one will remember you when you turn into white bones."
Zong Dingbang's throat rolled fiercely, he also knew what the Muse had done to humans over the years by commanding the Twelve Wisdom Brain Groups, but at his high position, he was powerless in the face of the menacing coalition government, so he could only pin his hopes on the muse, hoping to show his loyalty to the muse with his sincerity and let the god of artificial intelligence save him.
Another ignorant person who has been deceived like Wen Lan.
Shu Yungui shook his head, suddenly remembered something, and asked, "Where did you learn about the fact that the Twelve Wisdom Brain Groups can get eternal life from the muse?"
Zong Dingbang refused to say, Cheng Sikong killed him with a knife in the eye, and he had the intention of bleeding him on the spot if he didn't say anything, so frightened that the hair of the former chief man stood up, and hurriedly told everything he knew.
"I...... I also listened to what the previous chief said...... He said that this news has been rumored for a long time, and because it is so outrageous, not many people believe it, and it is just a joke, as for who first mentioned it...... I—I don't know ......."
Sure enough, there is no impermeable wall in the world, there must be someone from the top who leaked the news, and those who can't reach the muse will learn about the so-called "eternal life" and be bewitched by it, but it's been a long time, and it is impossible to verify who first said it.
"Who else did you tell about this?! Did you mention "eternal life" or something when you were talking to someone else in the office?"
Shu Yungui asked if he wanted to find the source of Wen Lan's behavior and confirm whether Wen Lan was guided by Zong Dingbang or if there was still something different
's forces are mixed in this matter.
"I...... I seem to ...... Maybe I said it, I really don't remember, at first I heard it as a joke, who knew it was true......
Zong Dingbang has to talk to so many people every day, how can he remember whether he told other people about "eternal life", and even less if he said it after drinking.
"Nonsense, I really don't know how you climbed to the position of chief, the people who voted for you back then are probably going to regret their bowels!"
Cheng Sikong didn't have the patience to wait for Zong Dingbang to say some nonsense, and even the Twelve Wisdom Brain Group couldn't tell the source of the news, how much could he know about the head of a lighthouse government, but it was just a bit of braggadocio at their *** cocktail party with false rumors.
He picked Zong Dingbang up, and the three of them returned to the surface together, at this time Tang Yue and Gu Xingtang were still leading the people in the technical department to fight with the muse, trying to seize control of the energy supply pipeline valve, but it was still unsuccessful, the competition between the two sides was very fierce, although the battle was carried out in the electronic world, but from the beads of sweat on Tang Yue's face, it could be seen that this battle was not much better than the war in the real world outside.
Seeing that Shu Yun had returned to them, Duan Chengtian brought someone to greet them, looked at Zong Dingbang, who was constantly struggling in Cheng Sikong's hands, and hesitated, "I just got news from Takexing."
His face was not very good, Cheng Sikong threw Zong Dingbang to IAFA's people and took him away and imprisoned, and when he left, he asked, "What happened?"
Duan Chengtian took a step forward, approached Shu Yungui and Cheng Sikong, and said in a low voice, "The explosion caused by the muse did not come in the order of the energy supply pipeline, the people from the Tunex Military Command said...... A large explosion was observed at Chavín Starport."
"What did you say?!"
Shu Yungui was suddenly shocked in his heart, he took his communicator from Duan Chengtian's hand, hurriedly turned on the phone, ignoring the surging information, and hurriedly dialed Shu Xin and Jian Fangrong to communicate, but the signal always showed that it could not be connected.
According to the itinerary plan, in the past two days, Jian Fangrong and the others have been going through the handover procedures of the Dawn at Chavín Star Harbor, and the muse suddenly caused a big explosion in Chavín Star, the purpose must be to destroy the Dawn!
There was a busy sound prompt from the communicator that the communication could not be connected, Shu Yungui only felt that the blood was flowing backwards, and his hands and feet were cold, he couldn't imagine how he would explain to General Ake and Dr. Han Le if Jian Fangrong and Shu Xin had an accident with Cha Wenxing.
"Cheng Sikong stayed behind to continue to command the operation, and I took a team of mechs to Cha Wenxing to support."
Shu Yungui was very anxious, Jian Fangrong and they came back to help him, the Dawn can be rebuilt, and the way to go to the Salamander Star can also be thought of, but if the person is gone, it will be a lifetime of self-blame and regret.
He strode out, Cheng Sikong sprinted two steps to catch up with him, and before Shu Yungui could speak, he took the lead and said, "How long will it take for you to fly over with the mecha?" When you're over, it's all over."
Where is Shu Yun willing to listen, even if everything is not important, but Shu Xin is still there, he has so many brother and sister feelings with Shu Xin, it is destined that he will not be able to sit idly by and ignore Shu Xin's safety in a dangerous moment.
"Listen to me, Cha Wenxing will hand it over to me, I will take someone to rush over with 'Su Yu Light-year, I will do my best to protect Jian Fangrong and Shuxin, you stay here, this battle is started in the name of the coalition government, you are the chief of the coalition government, all the people and officials on the administrative stars in the star field are watching you, you can't leave until the war is over!"
Under Cheng Sikong's persuasion, even though his emotions were overturned, Shu Yungui still gritted his teeth and stopped, he nodded vigorously, and said to Cheng Sikong, "Please."
Cheng Sikong didn't say much, he knew that Shu Yungui could clearly distinguish the priority and priority, this battle was very important for whether the coalition government could gain a firm foothold in the star field in the future, Shu Yungui was the successor that many predecessors were unanimously optimistic about, and he would not insist on going his own way at such an important time.
Two black mecha braved the roaring cannon fire and landed in front of the gate of the Thorn Goddess Energy Supply Tower, Cheng Sikong "rewrote the coordinates" into the cockpit, the brain-computer linker lowered, and after confirming the success of the link, the mecha control panel lit up, and countless battlefield information hung in front of him through the visualization blindfold
Appearing, he quickly determined the location of Chavín Star Harbor, and the nearby torch-bearer mecha received the order to gather immediately, and under his leadership, they suddenly disappeared in place and rushed to Chavín Star to save people.
Shu Yungui stood in front of the door of the Thorn Goddess Energy Pagoda, under the destruction of explosions and wars, all the high-rise buildings outside were destroyed, the temperature of the fire made him feel that the air was hot and hot, the muse launched a final attack on humanity, it sent all the mecha and warships it could control, tens of thousands of weapons were put into the battlefield, and the battle between the two sides entered a white-hot stage.
He evoked a small space of originality, protected the equally small power core, and then jumped into the mecha cockpit with the power core, the hood slowly lowered, and the brain-computer link above the seat fell.
"The brain-computer link is passed, the link stability is 98%, and the driver is in good physical condition and is allowed to operate."
The ban on piloting privileges was lifted, and Shu Yungui jumped up with the mecha and quickly plunged into the front line of the battlefield.
In fact, at this time, it was no longer clear on the battlefield where the front line of the battle was, there were guns everywhere, there were fires everywhere, the black torch bearer mecha and the white lighthouse government mecha were fighting in the air, and the combat ships of both sides above the sky were even more firepower, and explosions continued to sound one after another, like thunder.
Shu Yungui remembered that the last time such a fierce firefight was when the insect tide attacked, but at that time, everyone was unanimous to the outside world, and there was no situation where mecha fought mecha and battleship fought battleship, and now it is different from the past, now it is a decisive battle between humans and artificial intelligence, and naturally all the weapons on the battlefield are the products of human beings themselves.
As soon as he flew into the sky, he became the target of the enemy mecha, and the muse should have locked his position, and for a while, all the surrounding mecha turned around and rushed towards him, and Shu Yungui was like a lone sunspot on the chessboard, instantly surrounded by whites.
"Do all the brains you've painstakingly collected think that you can get the most out of the way by bullying less?"
Shu Yungui was not in a hurry, he pulled out the long knife from behind the mecha with his backhand, and the blade rubbed against the scabbard, splashing a bright fire in the sky.
"It's a pity, the Twelve Wise Brains are already defeated under my command, even if their ancestors' brains are combined, it won't be enough to help you win this battle!"
Shu Yungui swung his knife and slashed horizontally, and the oncoming mecha was slashed in the chest by him, and the fragments of the broken mecha shell continued to fall, revealing the power core glowing with blue light inside.
The power core of the mecha is not large, it looks about the same size as the power core suspended next to Shu Yungui, but the two use different energy fusion methods, although the size is about the same, but the energy contained in it can be several orders of magnitude worse.
Shu Yuntan reached into the chest cavity of the mecha on the opposite side, and took out the core, the power core is the heart of the mecha, once it loses power, the mecha loses all its ability to move, and falls straight from the sky.
The small core was pinched and exploded in Shu Yungui's hand, turned into residue and went away with the wind, the long knife turned in a circle in the palm of the mecha, and Shu Yungui didn't even look back, he pierced the head of the mecha that attacked from behind.
There was no pilot in the cockpit, which was probably the most fortunate thing in this battle, the cockpit of the mecha was cut in half, the control system was disabled, and the entire mecha began to fly uncontrollably, and after circling Shu Yungui several times, it finally collided with another mecha, fell in twos and fell into the ruins of the burning building, and turned into a handful of ashes.
Shu Yungui quickly dealt with the mecha that was "buzzing" around him like flies, he flew to the top of the Thorn Goddess Energy Tower with a long knife in his hand, and the rebel mecha formation has been on standby here for a long time, and while waiting for the implementation of Plan B, they have already helped the fleet in the air to solve more than a dozen combat ships, at this time, those combat ships fell on the road, and they were torn apart and could not see the prototype.
"Plan B is canceled, immediately carry out the order to attack the tower, and at all costs, tear down the power supply tower of the goddess of thorns!"
The pilots of the rebel mecha formation were stunned when they heard this, even Deng Yingkai was no exception, the energy supply tower was 48,000 meters high, and it was an extremely stable triangular pyramid, it was not only difficult to completely knock down such a tall tower, but also the damage to the ground facilities was also very serious.
He hesitated and asked, "Are you sure it's a complete toppling?" If this volume falls, the administrative capital will be completely destroyed."
"Now is not the time to think about the gains and losses, if this tower is not completely destroyed, the Muse will be able to use the intelligent mastermind and the energy supply pipeline to attack all the time, we must destroy it, otherwise the price we will have to pay will not be as simple as an administrative capital."
Although Deng Yingkai didn't understand the attack logic of artificial intelligence, he understood that Shu Yungui's orders would always be infallible, so he no longer hesitated, and immediately ordered the rebel mecha formation to organize a formation, starting from the spire, to attack the Thorn Goddess Energy Supply Tower.
Naturally, the Muse does not sit still, and while the entire tower, including all the parts that extend through the pipes, can be seen as a part of it, the top of the tower is the most important place that makes up the main brain system, where all the human brain tissue it collects is stored.
It relies on these brains to improve its self-awareness, and human trickery is much better than artificial intelligence programs, which is why it has been in the Transverse Planet Domain for so long and has not been discovered by humans until now.
When Deng Yingkai rushed to the top of the tower with the rebel formation, a strong purple light shot out from the spire in a ring, the lethality of the weapon was much more powerful than ordinary laser weapons, although the rebel mech had tried its best to pull up the height, trying to avoid the attack range of this deadly weapon, but this light had a strong attraction to the mecha like the ionization defense layer.
The mecha's ascent was severely slowed down, and as soon as the mechanical wings touched the light particles emitted by the purple light, the entire mecha exploded!
This lethality shocked everyone, even the most advanced laser weapons equipped with active troops did not have such lethality, Deng Yingkai was stunned, and immediately shouted in the team's internal communication: "Disperse! Stay away from that damn laser! Attack with a hot weapon!"
For a while, the overwhelming heat weapon hit the top of the Thorn Goddess Energy Supply Tower, and at the same time, the second purple circle of light shot out, its attack range was almost three hundred and sixty degrees, the weapon collided with the aperture, and the explosion in mid-air was deafening.
Shu Yungui stared at this scene, and suddenly felt that the shape of this weapon was a little familiar, and he suddenly remembered that when Lin Ai was still a white cocoon, the lighthouse government once wanted to use a weapon of mass destruction to deal with it, and that weapon was to launch a string knife from a tower, and there was almost no grass where the string knife passed!
"It's Berkeley's anti-string cannon! The attack range seems to be circular, but it is actually composed of three solitary lasers, and the laser connection is the breakthrough!"
