Lu Xingchen leaned against the railing, closed his eyes, and kept shaking his leg. He was ntally prepared for the darkness, but now that the darkness had arrived, the uncertainty of the crisis made him sowhat restless, especially since this type of crisis was likely initiated by humans, making it even more troubling.
"Could it be that the Deep Red World is launching an attack against us, and we can only respond passively?" Luo Yang said, frowning.
"The way you said that, it sounds like we’re proactive when facing the Abnormal Body." The big guy, Liang Lei, crossed his arms and patted Luo Yang on the shoulder. "Don’t worry, such a large defense fortress is not that easy to break through. Even if S-Class weapons ca, we could at least hold out for half an hour."
"Well said."
At this mont, a bold voice rang out, Shi Deyuan led the Dragon Mountain No.1 group up to the upper deck, and simultaneously arriving were Qian Deli, Monica, Lu Zhao, and Hu Lushou with the battle personnel from the Joint Train convoy, about two to three thousand people in total.
"If the Deep Red World and Dawn City are joining forces, then we’re not the only opponents." Monica walked over and said.
Hearing this, Chen Sixuan nodded. For so reason, though the crowd was imposing and backed by Silent City, she couldn’t help but feel uneasy.
It wasn’t just because they were detached from the Infinity for combat, but mainly because the current situation lacked any warning signs, and no one knew what would happen next. If the enemy was the Deep Red World or even Dawn City, then what should they do next? Should they move to the inner center or bypass from the southern line? Currently, Lin Xian was absent, leaving everyone without a backbone, unsure of what the next step should be.
"Where’s Director Ding?" Chen Sixuan asked Miao Lu.
"She’s conducting research in the train. Captain Lin instructed Grace to protect her, not allowing her to leave the train."
"Alright."
Chen Sixuan picked up teor 3, looked towards the top of a signal tower, and said to Miao Lu, "Miao Lu, let’s go up there to observe."
...
In carriage No.3 of the Infinity, Ding Junyi asked Lin Xian to get a sample of the Dark Erosion Cells they obtained from Star Abyss, and he was comparing it with the black giant body’s tissue fragnts found during the sandstorm.
"Grace, help start the freezing microto, and take out the No.11 tissue liquid from the low-temperature freezer for ."
[Alright] Grace stayed beside Ding Junyi, while Hell Black Chrysanthemum and Silver Dragon Ten Thousand Mistakes quietly grew in the bio-plant cultivation cabin in the lab.
"Similar to the situation generated by the Nest, I found human muscle fiber tissues and DNA sequences ranging from D-level to A-level in multiple tissue samples here."
[Dr. Ding, do you believe there might be so resemblance between the organisms ford from such tissues and humans?]
Ding Junyi shook his head and calmly said, "I don’t have Special Level and S-Class samples, so I can’t compare this Dark Erosion Cell. But that possibility can’t be ruled out."
...
a.m.
Silent City, Main Control Room.
The silver-gray alloy door silently slid open, cold air enveloped in light blue condensation mist seeped through the door crack.
This room is the Mobile City’s central processing unit for Silent City, also part of Mochizuki Masashi’s processing unit and storage core, essentially the brain of the immobile Silent City.
The center of the room features a suspended processing core, a three-ter-diater transparent sphere with dark blue quantum fluid flowing inside. Extending from the quantum core are tens of thousands of semi-transparent neural conduits, spreading across the entire room like orderly blood vessels, connecting hundreds of subsystem processing units and cooling systems.
The entire city’s power, propulsion, weapons, radar, sensing, and drone control units are integrated into Mochizuki Masashi. This 1.31-million-ton behemoth doesn’t require Lin Xian to control No.1 Machine with two people for neural state driving. Mochizuki Masashi, with its 30,000 quantum bits volu, can control the Mobile City with a delay of no more than 0.001ms.
In the main control room, Mochizuki Masashi stood at the center, monitoring real-ti information from the entire city as well as all returned radar systems, while his quantum brain carried out billions of situational calculations every second.
Dang~
At this mont, a slight tallic sound echoed from behind, a chanically adept silver-black female form landed gracefully, emitting a crisp sound.
The robot slowly stood up, feet poised, chanical breeches on her wrists opened, and a blue plasma ray device was elevated.
Grace!
Mochizuki Masashi’s nano pupil spun slightly, speaking dispassionately: "Even though my computational ability is much superior to yours, an Intelligent Brain that has undergone learning from ’Humans in the Loop’ calculations is already sophisticated enough for deception."
[Sorry, but my human logic has been overridden at the fundantal level. I have to execute the task of reshaping your consciousness.]
Mochizuki Masashi turned to face Grace and said, "Do you know why I recognized you had human logic the mont I saw you?"
"Because you walk ahead of Lin Xian, which doesn’t align with the robot synchronization logic, and he didn’t issue an order for you to do so. Why would you deliberately walk ahead of him?"
Grace’s smooth face mirrored Mochizuki Masashi’s expression. She prepared to act, but in the next mont, all her power modules went offline, and she tilted her head slightly towards the corner.
In the shadows, Lin Xian walked out with a sigh, addressing Mochizuki Masashi:
"Next ti, remind more directly."
"It’s not about the reminder," Mochizuki Masashi replied. "You haven’t inford about your requirents for using this Intelligent Brain, so based on my judgnts, I assud this female-bodied robot with human logic is one of your ’XP.’"
Lin Xian: "..."
"Moreover, you haven’t ntioned that this robot once provided you with a ’human reminder’ surpassing chanical logic, which isn’t a system loophole but rather because Grace herself has already undergone learning through the ’Humans in the Loop’ thod by importing soone’s Conscious mory. Like , she’s capable of advanced thought, and your overwriting of her excluded her motion module and thought model, leaving behind residual consciousness."
Lin Xian nodded, "So, when you asked Grace to scan the black spider, you already knew the black spider’s purpose wasn’t targeting you, but Grace."
"Of course, how could that small spider possibly invade my main control room? The Deep Red World isn’t foolish enough yet." Mochizuki Masashi responded calmly.
Lin Xian, now troubled, glanced at Grace. It turns out that Zhou Mingyuan and Wen Dong ca for the purpose of reclaiming Deep Red No.3 and planned to utilize Grace to restart Mochizuki Masashi to take over Silent City as a bonus.
It must be said this is an extrely ruthless tactic. Grace, with her supercomputing capability and formidable combat power, if she indeed accomplished this objective of taking over Silent City, the consequences would be unimaginable.
"Alright, before you’re totally erased from the system, Lin Xian should have a question for you..."
Mochizuki Masashi’s pupil glimred, causing the entire main control room to be shielded by microwaves, then he turned to Grace and asked:
"Who exactly are you?"
