The Legendary Mechanic (Transcendental Mechanic)

[You trigger the S-level mission [Smart Plague]! ]

[Mission brief introduction: An exploration and scientific expedition team dug out taboo ancient artifacts in the ancient star desert, and accidentally released a virtual virus targeting intelligence. The rapid spread of the quantum network, once it breaks out, the underlying logic of countless machine intelligence will be rewritten, launching a mechanical rebellion]

[Task requirements: remove unknown virtual virus, relieve the crisis of intelligent plague]

[Reward: Rewards are given according to the task evaluation]

[Special request: Eliminate virus core data by yourself]

[Special reward: Generate a related specialty (exclusive to the Mechanical Department)]

"S-level mission... Well, it's expected." Han Xiao was not surprised at all.

The three major civilizations intend to seal off the entire star field. Such a big effort will naturally not be a small task, and in view of the spread of the virus, it is indeed worthy of the highest level of difficulty to completely eliminate it.

The requirements of most S-level tasks are ambiguous, and there are few prompts for action steps. They can only find ways to find out on their own. Generally, there are often more than one way to complete tasks, and they need to be adaptable.

This was the case with Gedora's [Bloodline] mission, and Han Xiao was used to it.

What he was curious about was the special mission requirements, and he revealed a lot of information impressively.

"I thought that every individual of this virus was the same, it was a common virus infection mode, but I didn't expect that there was a core. In this way, this virus is more like a controllable biochemical weapon in the virtual field..."

Han Xiao thought secretly.

If the core of this virus is intelligent life, then it must be hidden in the quantum network and will never show up. The threat of virtual viruses has therefore increased significantly, and opponents with self-awareness are more terrifying than dead things without thinking.

However, another possibility is that the core data of the virus is not independent intelligence, but a set program algorithm that coordinates the overall infection progress and directs all virus daughters according to the program, without self-awareness.

"Hmm... why does it feel like Plague Company." Han Xiao scratched his head.

The special reward is to generate a mechanical-related expertise, not the ability to extract targets, which makes him think that the virus core is more likely to be a program algorithm. The task is so dynamic, and the generated expertise should not be much worse. Go, it is estimated that it has something to do with virtual technology.

"Philip, prepare the spaceship and let Leonard choose some mechanics from the logistics department to follow me."

Without hesitation, Han Xiao stood up, put on his coat, pushed open the door, and strode towards the interstellar dock at the base.

The plague of intelligence was an unexpected event that threatened the entire universe and disrupted his plans. He had to terminate his vacation, temporarily put aside what he was doing, and take people to the ancient star desert to perform tasks.

Being in a high position, facing a problem of this level, he couldn't stay out of it.

Not long after, a fleet full of legion mechanics set off from the Black Star Palace, like a group of meteors traveling through the universe, passed through star gates, and headed towards the ancient star desert.

At the same time, well-known mechanics from all over the universe received invitations from the three major civilizations and rushed to the ancient star desert from all directions.

...

The matter was related to the safety of the entire universe. The three major civilizations raced against time and acted very quickly. The high-level civilization council was urgently held, and all civilizations of the galaxy level and above in the ancient star desert were listed.

In the venue full of remote projections of civilization representatives, the leaders of the three major civilizations appeared at the same time and read out the common decision.

"Yesterday, Radiance Federation, Scarlet Empire, and Ethereal Sect received reliable information that a special virtual virus appeared in the ancient star desert. This virus is extremely penetrating and has infected many areas. According to the judgment of reliable experts, the virus The goal is to rewrite the underlying logic of all infected machines, making killing life forms the top priority.

After deliberation, the three major civilizations rated the disaster as a "world-destroying level" and used the unified command of the emergency to cut off all quantum network connections to the ancient star desert and send troops to block the star field. All civilizations must cooperate with the actions of the three major civilizations, and the above procedures will be implemented immediately. "

To do extraordinary things in extraordinary times, without long speeches and endless discussions, what the three major civilizations read out today are notices rather than proposals, requiring all civilizations in the ancient star desert to perform unconditionally, and there is no room for bargaining.

After the words fell, the expressions of the representatives of the various civilizations who were still wondering why the three major civilizations held an emergency meeting changed drastically, showing shock.

The three major civilizations have ruled the universe and set up a disaster rating system. According to the provisions of the relevant laws, when the threat level of the cosmic disaster rises to a certain level, the three major civilizations will gain the highest command and are eligible to uniformly dispatch all civilizations in the universe. .

It's just that there are very few such cases in the history of exploration.

Once the announcement of the three major civilizations was issued, countless interstellar citizens were in an uproar. No one expected a disaster of this level to happen suddenly. The world is really full of "surprises".

For ordinary people, this is just an ordinary day, and the disaster happened silently. If it weren't for the early warning measures of the three major civilizations all over the universe, perhaps most people would react when the virus really broke out.

Regardless of the secret plans of the various civilizations in the ancient star desert, they are very cooperative on the surface, giving the green light all the way, in accordance with the requirements of the three major civilizations, cutting off the external links of all quantum network base stations and blocking the star field network.

When the three major civilizations and the civilizations of a star field act collectively, the scale of resources mobilized is beyond imagination, and they can do things that are almost impossible in the eyes of normal people.

The ancient star desert was quickly blocked, isolated from the interstellar society, and became a besieged city in the dark. All communication was forbidden. The outside didn't know what happened inside, and the inside didn't know what happened outside.

Although the situation is temporarily under control, panic is still spreading in the universe. The sudden disaster has taken away the limelight of Glittering World, and countless people have turned their attention away from the competition in the new star field and turned their attention to the ancient star desert. developments.

Compared with the orderly civilized regime, the interstellar citizens of the ancient star desert are very flustered. Even though the civilization continues to appease the citizens, there are still waves of refugees of varying degrees on various planets.

Due to the infection of intelligence by the virus, countless interstellar citizens began to distrust machinery extremely. They felt that any machinery was a threat, and they were suspicious. Drop or smash machinery to eliminate hidden dangers.

The ancient star desert set off a trend of thinking that rejects machines...but this kind of chaos was expected by advanced civilizations.

Now that the situation is grim, the three major civilizations did not choose to block the news, but let everyone know the seriousness of the situation. In this way, the self-examination and supervision of Interstellar Citizen can be strengthened, and it is impossible to conceal a movement of this scale.

The star gates were closed one after another, and the army entered the star field. Countless people who wanted to escape the ancient star desert were all blocked by the army. No one could pass through the blockade of the three major civilizations.

These scenes are all phenomena that occurred during the smart plague period in the previous life, and now they are staged ahead of schedule in the era of version 4.0. Under the turbulent waves on the surface, there are surging undercurrents hidden.

...

"The Ancient Star Desert was blocked? Black Star rushed to rescue the disaster?!"

In Glittering World, the leader of the Transcendent Star Cluster Alliance held a secret meeting in the free competition area, with a happy face and almost laughed out loud.

"This disaster came too timely! The three major civilizations have to rescue the disaster, and they have no time to contain us!"

Roddick of Modo Civilization clenched his fists tightly and looked happy.

The vast majority of people in the universe feel uneasy and panic about the disaster, but for the Transcendent star cluster alliance here, the outbreak of the smart plague is good news, a complete surprise.

"That's right, the smart plague can hold back the energy of the three major civilizations, which can bring us more time. If one goes up and down, our chances of winning will increase significantly!"

"It's best that the plague of intelligence can spread out, causing the three major civilizations to be overwhelmed. The more chaotic the universe, the less time the three major civilizations have to deal with us. Only in chaos can we have a chance."

Everyone here is extremely excited, and I only feel that God is helping me.

"You said, if the three major civilizations fail..."

"That would ruin lives, and we will also suffer losses."

"If you can't break it, you can't stand it. The foundation of the rule of the three major civilizations has been shaken, and we have a chance to turn around. The old order is destroyed, so that the new order can be accommodated. These are all necessary sacrifices."

Everyone's eyes flickered.

If the plague of intelligence really breaks out, the Transcendent star cluster civilization will also be damaged, but the three major civilizations will suffer even more, and their prestige and dominance will plummet.

They believed that the high-level civilization of the ancient star desert must have other thoughts behind the scenes.

However, everyone here can only talk and discuss, the direction of the situation is not up to them to decide, all they can do is wait and see.

...

Just when the entire universe was filled with unease, experts from the mechanical department from all over the world rushed to the ancient star desert one after another, and arrived at the disaster management headquarters temporarily established by the three major civilizations here.

a month later.

The fleet slowly stopped at the dock of the Disaster Management Headquarters. Han Xiao opened the hatch and walked off the spaceship with the densely packed mechanics. At a glance, he saw Manison's clone waiting on the platform.

"You're finally here."

Manison greeted him.

Since the establishment of the Development Federation, the two have served as the chairman and vice president respectively. Although their ideas are different, they are both grasshoppers on the same rope at present, and they usually communicate frequently.

"I thought you would descend in your body, but it turned out to be a clone." Han Xiao shook his head.

"...that's the only way to be safe."

Manison was a little speechless, the main body of the mechanic is crispy, and you are an alternative who is not afraid of running around.

The two greeted each other, then walked side by side and talked about the current situation.

"I've been traveling for nearly a month, but I can't get any news from outside. How is the situation in Ancient Star Desert?" Han Xiao was curious.

"Not too optimistic. Although the three major civilizations have blocked the star field, the virus is too contagious. Many nodes have been repeatedly infected, and the virus camouflage ability is terrible. The efficiency and accuracy of normal scanning are too low. Now there are probably There are traces of virus infection in eight star clusters, and the number of nodes is too large to count." Manison shook his head.

Han Xiao knew it in his heart.

Each terminal connected to the quantum network is a node, such as communicators, household appliances, spaceships, etc. The number is extremely large, and just thinking about it will tell how terrible the workload is.

Even if super-a-level virtual mechanics can easily clear virus information packets, there are so many nodes, and the power of individuals is completely insufficient, and the speed of clearing is not as fast as the spread of viruses, let alone the problem of repeated infection. Only advanced civilizations have the ability to control the situation.

"Now the three major civilizations are developing special anti-virus programs for this virus, and want to improve the removal efficiency, which is why we are called." Manison said.

"Has this virus been named?"

"Well, the above call it a virtual mutiny virus."

Han Xiao glanced at him, raised his eyebrows and asked, "I heard that you were the first person to discover this virus, and ran over to inform Radiance Federation without saying a word, what do you think?"

"This is my job." Manison said casually.

"Do you think I believe it or not?"

Han Xiao curled his lips. He knows Lao Maitou very well. He still hasn’t forgotten what happened to Guanghui last time. Why are you pretending to be a loyal minister here?

Manison shook his head, looking ashamed.

"Young people are young people. I am very sad if their ideological awareness is not good enough."

Pretend, you continue to pretend... Han Xiao chuckled.

Seeing the expression of I believe you a ghost on Black Star's face, Manison shook his head, lowered his voice, and whispered:

"This type of disaster is the stage for mechanics to perform. The more the three major civilizations pay attention to it, the more important we will be. If we make contributions to the entire universe, it will also be our bargaining chip. On the other hand, if this virus is not resolved, The mechanical business of the entire universe will be severely hit, which is not conducive to our expansion."

"This is you." Han Xiao smiled, "You still want to take the opportunity to study this virus. If you can master this technology, it will also have an additional deterrent effect on advanced civilizations in the future."

"Don't you think so?" Manison asked back.

Hearing this, Han Xiao suddenly had an upright face, as if his whole body was filled with dazzling positive energy.

"It is said that the greater the ability, the greater the responsibility. I just don't want to mess up the universe. This is my generation's historical responsibility!"

"hehe."

Manison smiled emotionlessly.

I read you right, Black Star, we are indeed the same breed.
