[Extra: The End of Mechanic Fans III] 'Resurrection Empire'
[Ah this... why did I send this as a V chapter! I may have clicked wrongly! It was obviously meant to be sent as a testimonial! Ugh! I was stupid! I'm sorry, guys!!! Sorry, sorry! I really wasn't.
I deliberately wanted to pay for this subscription! It’s a big headache! I’m sorry, I’m sorry, everyone! Forgive me!!]
…………………………………………………………………………
There is no point in continuing to investigate the case.
Throughout the next day, the remaining three people were busy with other things.
Ou Xiameng forced herself to calm down and took out a copy of the mythical symbol that contained a large amount of data, as well as the notebook and pen found in Liang Zhichu's room. She did not go through Liang Zhichu's personal privacy in front of it, she just wanted to read the notebook.
Make use of the blank paper at the back and try to complete the final step of the smelting method by hand calculation, and organize the complex data into method conclusions that can be easily described.
She didn't know if she could leave, but she just thought that if she died too, leaving something behind would make her death more meaningful. Assuming that her colleagues in other scientific research stations were in the same situation as herself, she would also
Without the assistance of quantum data, on the entire J919, the only one who has the opportunity to complete the final calculation with pen and paper is himself. If everyone dies and all the metal plates with the mythical symbols are lost, then what happened here all those years ago
The investment on the planet will be all in vain. If we find a way to calculate the final formula and use a more reliable carrier to store this small amount of information, even if everyone dies, the project will not be considered a failure.
Samantha helped Nur Ahom try to further improve the performance of the antique broadcast equipment.
After more than two days, people in various scientific research stations seemed to be showing off their talents. One of the scientific research stations found a way to enhance the strength of the broadcast signal sent to the outside world, and communicated its situation to the outside world in a concise text.
It was broadcast.
Although Nur Ahong could not reply, he generally knew some information.
The other party is the No. 9 Scientific Research Station in the Roentgen Mountains, about 300 kilometers away from the No. 117 Scientific Research Station in the Tara Basin. Last night and the night before, there were also two murders. The deceased were two scientific workers like Ou Xiameng.
.
Subsequently, the No. 9 scientific research station in the Roentgen Mountains announced a method to enhance the broadcast signal. Soon, each scientific research station announced its own situation to the outside world.
Nur Ahong was shocked. Abnormal deaths occurred in almost all scientific research stations, and the identities of the deceased were different.
But they all have one thing in common, that is, the professional pilots who can drive small fast armed ships in all scientific research stations are still alive.
Nur Ahong informed Ou Xiameng of the information he collected.
In the evening, the three of them got together again and tried to analyze something from this phenomenon.
Samantha said: "This is most likely an attack launched by the Compound Eyes through an infiltration offensive. In any case, we should evacuate."
Ou Xiameng shook his head, "It's unlikely. Before I set off for J919 three years ago, I read the latest battle report. It would be difficult for the Compound Eyes to penetrate into the location of J919 within three years."
Nur Ahom: "But it's possible, isn't it? And it's even more likely that the Compound Eyes have some unknown means of remotely controlling our warriors."
"This is ridiculous. Now that humankind's technological level has surpassed those with compound eyes, the quantum resonance that used to control our thinking is no longer effective. Moreover, our warriors have all received will-strengthening training, and Siceta has not shown any signs of being controlled.
Signs." Ou Xiameng shook his head.
Nur Ahong: "You mean, is there really a fourth person who caused all the murders? And it's not the pilot? But if it's not the Compound Eyes, what kind of force is it? It can attack all the scientific research stations on the planet at the same time.
Attack at the same time, and this attack only kills one person every day?"
This question stumped Ou Xiameng.
She thought for a moment before saying: "The best choice at the moment is to evacuate as soon as possible. Request special military personnel to come and take over the scene."
Nur Ahun: "But our pilot is a direct suspect. Without him we would not be able to take off. In addition, I think we are responsible and it is necessary to conduct a more in-depth investigation. We are the parties involved and can see more information
, we have the responsibility to find out more truth. Even if it has to be handed over to military personnel, we can wait for people from other scientific research stations to evacuate first, and they will also send intelligence to the outside world."
The three fell into silence again.
…
No one expected that two hours later, Nur Ahong suddenly rushed out of his dormitory, first let out a shrill roar, then blood surged out of his mouth, and then he curled up and fell to the ground.
He seemed to want to say something before he died, but in the end he didn't shout a single word. He trembled a few times and was silent again.
There are only two survivors and one suspect left in Research Station No. 117.
Ou Xiameng and Samantha, who rushed out after hearing the screams, looked at each other, frightened and confused.
The biggest suspect, Cicetta, was still imprisoned, but a third person died.
"What...what is going on?" Samantha's lips trembled with fear, "Should...or should we release Cicetta?"
Ou Xiameng shook his head, "Wait, I'll think about it, I'll think about it again..."
While the two were talking, three minutes passed and Nur Ahong's body on the ground turned blue and black.
Ou Xiameng was secretly frightened.
This is a symptom of poisoning.
The biggest suspect became the seemingly harmless Samantha.
But Ou Xia Meng did not say anything, but quietly moved towards the passage leading to the cell.
"Samantha, you wait here first. I'd better go and get Cissetta out first."
With the death of Nur Ahom, Osha Meng, as a senior researcher, automatically became the supreme leader.
The authority to release the suspect Cicetta naturally also belongs to Ou Xiameng.
Samantha nodded numbly and did not raise any questions.
Half an hour later, Ciceta, who had certain professional skills, completed the autopsy on Nur Ahun and determined that the cause of death was indeed food poisoning.
When Cicetta announced the results, Samantha was so frightened that she sat down on the ground, shook her head, and argued tearfully, "No...it's not me, I didn't poison the team leader. Besides, our meals are all the same."
It’s a big deal, why weren’t we poisoned and he was the only one who was poisoned? This is unreasonable! Besides, you have been talking about motives before, and I am the one with the least motives! Don’t look at me like that!”
Ou Xiameng first looked at Siseta, then at Samantha who fell limply on the ground, and then at Nur Ahom's body on the medical bed. His mind was in a mess.
Things have reached a complete deadlock.
There was nothing I could do, but I could only watch the dead people one after another.
And there is no doubt that if something is not done, people will die next.
No one knows who the next victim will be.
…
Ou Xiameng spent half an hour collecting the messages broadcast by other teams.
Some teams have already taken off in small armed ships to escape, and some teams are also preparing.
More than half of the scientific research stations have suffered three deaths, and a small number of scientific research stations have only one or two people dead.
"We can't delay it any longer. We must evacuate immediately, otherwise we will all die here."
Cicetta said firmly.
"Okay, Cicetta, go and get ready."
"OK. It will take about four hours for me to adjust the ship to manual mode and then manually ignite the engine. During these four hours, both of you should pay attention to your own safety."
After Cicetta finished speaking, she went straight to the ship dock.
Ou Xiameng took out the suspected murder weapons such as the ion beam gun, alloy rope, Nur Ahong's dishes, chopsticks, plates, knives and forks, and placed them all on the workbench in the hall.
Before leaving, she tried to reorganize and analyze the case and make a final attempt.
Countless data, past experimental records, mechanical ecosystem research reports on J919, various death details of the deceased and the current status of survivors at other scientific research stations were tumbling over and over in her head.
In the end, her eyes fell on Liang Zhichu's notebook.
At this time, the notebook was open, with her own handwritten draft of calculation data on it.
"I will do one last calculation." Ou Xiameng said to herself. She already had some intuition in her heart.
She grabbed the notebook again and picked up the pen.
At the same time, she said: "Samantha, help me get the mechanical logical thinking enhancement potion."
Ou Xiameng decided to give it a final try.
She was unwilling to run away in despair. Not only for the sake of research, but also for the sake of those who died in unclear circumstances.
When Samantha heard this, she wondered: "Dr. O, what are you going to do? That medicine will cause irreversible mechanization of your brain..."
"Please bring me the potion, thank you."
Ou Xiameng interrupted Samantha and urged again.
…
Three hours later, Ou Xiameng put down the pen in his hand.
The last page of the notebook in front of her has been filled with writing.
She took a deep breath.
I already have a clear understanding in my heart.
Ou Xiameng picked up the ion beam gun and walked towards the dock.
Ou Xiameng: "Ciceta, I have turned on the function of your combat uniform. Take this gun, go to the gate of the base, point it at the sky, and fire it at the frequency I said."
Cissetta: "What are you going to do?"
"Send some information to the people outside. Also, we want to be the last team to leave."
"What's the meaning?"
"It's no fun, just follow my orders, thank you. You are a soldier, and now I am your superior. You should carry out my orders unconditionally."
"Do you want to solve the case and avenge others?"
"Don't ask too many questions that you shouldn't ask."
Perhaps it was the effect of the medicine, or perhaps she had experienced too much in just a few days and was living in inexplicable fear, which made Ou Xiameng change rapidly. At this time, her personality seemed to have changed drastically, and she looked extremely...
Indifferent and very strong.
Siceta looked stern, stopped talking, turned on the power of the ion beam gun to the maximum, and pointed the muzzle at the sky.
Although the ion beam gun is a portable individual weapon, based on the current level of human science and technology, if the power is turned to the maximum, the lethality is still considerable. The ion beam can break through the constraints of the thin atmosphere on J919 and go straight into space.
Looking from a distance in space, you can see that the surface of the planet is like a searchlight, flashing and flashing light beams according to a specific rhythm.
As the distance goes by, the beam gradually expands until it completely dissipates when it spans a distance of nearly 80 million kilometers.
The beam goes up faster than other ships forced to use manual mode.
Before other scientific expedition teams had yet to leave the atmosphere, Ou Xiameng sent out the message he wanted to convey, and it was collected by the small frigate patrolling outside.
After finishing this, Ou Qinglan, Cissetta, and Samantha entered the cockpit of the small fast armed ship, but they did not rush to ignite it and only let the power engine warm up.
As for the bodies of Matsuda Masahito, Liang Zhichu, and Nur Ahong, they had already been put into the warehouse.
…
Another eight hours passed.
On the huge J919 star, huge mining machines are parked quietly under the mountains, on the plains, and on the deep sea floor...
These giant machines that were never tired have turned into completely dead creatures.
On the floating load-carrying rails tangled like fishing nets in the sky, load-bearing load-carrying machines, which had been flowing continuously, were parked in twos and threes.
The hanging rail makes huge earthquakes from time to time. This is the giant mechanical bird native to J919 flapping.
In the past, once a giant mechanical bird approached the hanging rail, it would be quickly extinguished by human unmanned armed machinery.
The giant bird has even developed a biological instinct and knows that it must walk around when it encounters the hanging rail.
But now that there is no drone to sweep away, the giant bird can freely vent its accumulated anger over the years and gnaw at the metal above it.
From time to time, the anti-gravity device in the hanging rail was completely destroyed, and a large piece of the metal warehouse structure crashed from the sky to the ground like a collapsed Mount Buzhou.
In just a few days, the bustling J919 star has quickly turned into a desolate and dilapidated scene.
Everything that humans have worked hard to build on J919 for decades is like a noisy event that is coming to an end, and is falling apart at an extremely fast speed.
But this is the carnival of the native mechanical life on this planet.
"It's time to go."
Ou Xiameng ordered Cicetta who was sitting in the driver's seat.
Cicetta nodded and began to turn the various valves and physical buttons in front of her at an extremely fast speed.
At this time, the originally clean and refreshing driver's seat operating platform was no longer what it used to be. Various lines of varying thicknesses were cluttered together.
The copper core was exposed wildly, and as Cissetta pressed the switch, sparks flew out from time to time.
The other end of the line is connected to a variety of solid button panels of different sizes, colors, colors, colors, and shapes. They are arranged in such a mess that you can kill seven or eight obsessive-compulsive disorder at a glance. They are full of Soviet heavy industry style.
This was all a "masterpiece" completed by Cissetta within a few hours.
Anyway, he just wants to take off successfully. As long as he enters outer space, he can get rescue immediately. But he just wants to be usable and barely reliable. Ciceta doesn't pursue any aesthetics. Even those buttons are mostly from his own private collection.
, dismantled from a large number of ancient figures.
With rumbling vibrations, the armed ship slowly took off.
Samantha sighed: "I can finally leave this hellish place. Finally... it's over."
Cicetta did not speak, but was concentrating on the various indicator lights in front of her.
At this time, spacecraft from other scientific research stations had already taken off one after another, and some of the spacecraft had even flown out of J919's atmosphere and entered outer space.
His intuition told him that Ou Xiameng must have deep meaning in arranging his own spaceship to be the last one to leave.
He didn't know what would happen next, but his heart was still filled with a sense of crisis.
Cicetta took a deep breath and turned her eyes to the rocker on the side of her right hand.
Previously, he used the extra preparation time to barely restore the firing function of the cannon on the bow of the armed ship.
Although there is no way to automatically lock and fire like before, Cissetta has practiced manual locking before. Once he is in contact with the enemy, as long as he is given a chance to test the gun and calibrate it with two rounds, he can at least do it without missing a shot.
More than 90% hit rate within ten kilometers.
When he was repairing the cannon, Ou Xiameng, an academic talent, also came up with ideas and helped him adjust the parameters of the energy supply module, linking the main energy supply module of the cannon with several backup modules at the same time, and
The shooting endurance has been increased to five times that of normal conditions.
Turning his head to look at the shimmering and retreating clouds outside the window, Ou Xiameng shook his head, "It's not over yet. I won't just become a deserter like this."
Samantha: "What do you mean?"
Ou Xiameng opened the box at his feet, took out a miniature phase pistol from it, and threw it to Samantha. He picked up a larger ion beam gun and said, "I have given it as a temporary commander.
Your weapons are authorized. Come with me to the bridge, we must prepare for battle."
"Fight?" Samantha was confused.
Ou Xiameng nodded, "Yes, the Gaia consciousness on this planet will definitely use all its strength to drive us away."
Samantha: "Gaia consciousness?"
"Yes. We were all wrong. There is intelligent life on J919. Now, I have completed all the calculations related to it, and I know the nature of the special alloy that makes up the mechanical intelligent life on J919. That thing has nothing to do with life on earth.
Amino acids are indeed one thing, but they are also the neurotransmitters of Gaia’s consciousness. The entire planet J919 itself is an intelligent life with independent thinking.”
Samantha: "But we have dealt with planetary life before. Their thinking is very slow, and it takes hundreds of thousands of years for a thought to spin."
Ou Xiameng: "So this time mankind has encountered a special and cunning opponent. But I won't let it go as I wish."
…
The armed ship hovers at the junction of J919's atmosphere. One step higher will lead to the vast universe that represents freedom. The next step further will return to the stratosphere of the planet's atmosphere.
At this time, the entire planet's surface is undergoing drastic changes.
It's vibrating.
Along with the tremors, powerful gravitational waves are tearing apart everything near the planet.
There was a creaking sound inside the armed ship due to violent resonance.
Below, the sky is falling and the earth is shaking, the mountains are breaking apart, and the deep blue ocean is boiling.
Wearing a space combat uniform, Samantha stood on the bridge with her beautiful figure exposed. The ropes extending from the combat uniform firmly fixed her to the bridge guardrail.
Samantha lowered her head and looked down, only to find that the land of J919 was flickering between reality and reality.
"What is going on?" she asked in surprise.
Ou Xiameng finally began to explain, "It is mobilizing a large amount of electric energy accumulated over the billions of years since its birth, preparing to start a jump shuttle with an unknown goal and leave here."
Samantha: "Electric energy? Where is the reserve?"
"In every proton, neutron, electron, radiation, microwave... on the entire J919. It is a life, which cannot be inferred based on common sense in engineering."
Samantha: "Does that include us?"
Ou Xiameng: "Yes, we are part of it now. But as long as our spaceship flies another fifty meters, we will not be included. All along, it has been deliberately creating death and trying to kill us.
Drive away."
Samantha: "Then why don't we leave quickly? Why do we stop here?"
Ou Xiameng: "Because I don't want it to escape. No one can get away with killing so many humans. It must pay the price."
"But it's trying to jump, and we can't stop it!"
"No, it can't take us with it. I am a descendant of the Ou family and a direct subordinate of the leader. A long-range projection of leader Chen Feng's will is implanted in my body. If I die here, or
If it is taken away by it, the leader will definitely be able to find it. It is afraid of us, afraid of humans, and even more afraid of our leader."
In the sky not far away, densely packed mechanical beings of all types were swooping in at extremely fast speeds.
The big ones are like islands, and the small ones are like sparrows. They pile up together, covering the sky and the sun, like huge waves in a tsunami.
This situation filled Samantha, a non-combatant, with fear.
She shouted: "But the root of everything is that we tried to dismantle it! It was just defending itself! It was just resisting. It is the business of those warriors to punish it! Please, I really don't want to die here. We...
…”
Ou Xiameng shook his head, raised his hand and fired, accurately hitting a flying giant bird with a wingspan of fifteen meters, and said: "There is no absolute justice in the universe, everything is relative.
Yan. What I want is not just to punish it. I am a scientific researcher and I want to get all of it. According to my understanding of the military system, we need to hold on for one more minute and don't let it drive us away. Then it
I can't leave. I need your and Cicetta's help. It would be too easy for it to throw me into space if I were alone."
At this time, the armed ship's machine guns also opened fire.
The cannon with maximum power fired hundreds of times per second, mowing down a large number of mechanical flying beasts in the blink of an eye.
The communicators between Ou Xiameng and Samantha sounded like Siceta's mad roar.
As a battlefield elite who has experienced hundreds of battles, he has been depressed and depressed for too long.
Now, he finally found a clear fighting goal.
He doesn't have as many worries as Nur Ahom, and he is too lazy to think and calculate too many things like Osha Meng. He only knows one thing, see the enemy and annihilate the enemy.
For a time, the situation became anxious.
The mechanical birds controlled by Gaia's will rushed forward fearlessly, some of them rushed straight into the ship, trying to catch Ou Xia Meng hiding behind the bridge armor, and some of them rushed under the armed ship and captured him.
It keeps arching upward.
Ou Xiameng and Samantha fired their guns one after another.
There is no need to aim carefully, as long as you hit it, you will definitely hit something.
The armed ship continued to rotate, and the machine gun barrels were already red and hot under the impact of the high-load super reaction.
…
I don't know how much time passed, but the intensity of the mechanical bird's attack suddenly slowed down, and it only stopped in the distance without getting closer.
Samantha collapsed on the bridge from exhaustion, "What's wrong? What's going on?"
Ou Xiameng was also not much relieved, but there was a sense of relief on her face that she had achieved her wish.
She looked up at the sky.
In the starry sky, a giant spindle ship about three thousand kilometers long was parked there quietly.
The Star Destroyer cannon on the top of the giant ship was spitting out terrifying energy fluctuations.
Behind the giant ship, a dense mist was faintly transmitted.
It is a blockade dome developed by humans after absorbing the technology from the dome that blocked the solar system tens of thousands of years ago. It has stronger performance and higher control.
The will of Gaia on J919 has nowhere to escape.
It missed the best opportunity to escape. It knew this. It gave up.
…
"The will of Gaia has been controlling the movement of atoms on the planet. The person who shot and killed Masahito Matsuda was not a person, but the gun in my hand. The rope that strangled Liang Zhichu was just that rope. The fingerprints that appeared on the rope,
It evolved on its own, in order to confuse our judgment. The knife and fork that poisoned Nur Ahun was his own knife and fork. The metal on the knife and fork had its properties changed, giving it highly toxic properties."
"Although humans have become so powerful, we cannot deny that our bodies are still fragile. To us, the universe is still incredible and full of dangers. No matter how powerful the technology is, humans must still be in awe."
Seventy years later, Ou Xiameng said this.
In the distance, the freed J919 is slowly drifting into the distance.
From now on, it can go wherever it wants.
Humanity did not destroy J919. The Osha Dream, which cracked all its mysteries, became its communicator. It took seventy years to transform all the wisdom accumulated in its billions of years of life into science that humans can understand.
Knowledge.
Humanity got a new Gaia battleship.
Completely different from the unmanned warships of the past, the Gaia warship can transform the entire spacecraft into a life form, with stronger energy conversion efficiency, better self-healing characteristics, better environmental adaptability, and more coordination with the galaxy-level master brain.
Human-like intelligence.
A hundred years later, the new Gaia battleship will appear everywhere in the Virgo Super Galaxy Cluster together with its leader Chen Feng, launching a fatal blow to the Compound Eye Civilization that is still stubbornly resisting.
[Finished, please collect the new book "Resurrection Empire"! This extra chapter is written more casually, and there is no exquisite idea. The main purpose, ahem, is to promote the new book. I feel that the new book has strong blood and makes me feel better. But still
