Chapter 516 Anxious Lin Xue
Sharing one's own unused computing resources into communication links, and using huge amounts of computing power to complete research that is impossible at the current level of civilization or to generally improve the entire race's understanding of everything in the world, this plays an important role in the lives of Xiling people It can even be said that this kind of sharing is accompanied by the development and glory of the entire Xiling Empire. It is this almost bug talent that allows an originally mediocre and even somewhat naturally stupid race to gain Their rapid development of abilities allowed them to gain power comparable to gods with their mortal bodies.
There is such a theorem recognized by the world: the first factor in the development of civilization is the transmission of knowledge and the exchange of information. It represents the upper limit of the development speed and the upper limit of the development level of a race's civilization. Humanity on earth has got rid of primitiveness because of hieroglyphics, and because of cheapness The dawn of civilization ushered in the paper and books, and it entered an explosive development due to global information exchange. This strongly proves the importance of the interaction of information in the development of civilization. At this point...
Xiling people have entered the international Internet era since the day they were born. Are there all kinds of envy, jealousy and hatred? !
Shandora once told me in a chat that there was such a legend among them: the first Xiling person accidentally discovered that a large amount of heat would be generated when electric current flows through a suitable conductor, so the next day, the entire The Xiling race collectively used electric heat cutting machines. Although this statement is a bit exaggerated, it fully proves the terrifying power of wireless information sharing.
However, it is useless for anyone to be jealous of this talent, and for ordinary races, it is even a disaster to obtain such an exaggerated way of information exchange. Rapidly developing civilizations often go astray, their own ambitions and desire for destruction It is a common problem for most ordinary races to lose control under the rapid increase of power. They often forget about it and challenge things that they cannot face at all. Only Xiling people have such a strong purpose. In addition to killing the Abyss and Expansion Only a race that doesn’t think about anything other than its territory will not go astray under any circumstances. Of course, this is only for the Xiling people who have not self-destructed. For those weak races that were exterminated during the period of the empire’s expansion, we I can only express sympathy.
The scientific research model of Xiling people is usually like this: one or several Xiling apostles who specialize in scientific research serve as the core, propose research goals, study the current situation, study difficulties, and then classify these things, and the parts that require creativity are left to the researchers The parts that require simple calculations and logical deductions are handed over to the Xiling host, while the parts that require massive experiments and simulation calculations are uploaded to the information link, and are completed by the idle computing resources of the Xiling apostles on the current link. This research process The number of Xiling apostles who need to be called may range from a few hundred to hundreds of millions of Xiling people on the entire planet to complete simultaneously. And there are many difficulties that require the participation of the entire race and the gathering of amazing computing power to overcome, and that is—— Challenge the barriers of law.
This is the intelligence that Tavel obtained based on the information extracted from the "Cube Core". In order to challenge the void and directly apply the ultimate energy, the empire launched a plan code-named x. The participants in the plan were 100% of the entire empire. Ninety Xiling apostles are almost all.
Sandora has obviously gone through that plan, and she still remembers the situation at that time, but...
"There is no finished product, I am absolutely sure," Sandora said firmly again, "Our information is completely shared, and I have the emperor's unlimited authority. If someone in the empire really produced a product based on the research results at that time, With an advanced energy furnace like Juyue, there is no way I wouldn’t know about it.”
"But this thing is really..." Looking at the core component of the giant moon with only a small square a few meters long in front of me, I was also very confused, "Wait a minute, Sandora, when did that plan happen? ?”
"The timetable has been messed up for a long time, God knows how many years ago," Sandora smiled bitterly and shook her head, "But... while I was trapped in that nameless world, the plan was still in progress... Wait!"
Sandora's voice suddenly fell, and then she took a sharp breath. It seemed that she had already thought of that amazing possibility.
I felt my hands clenching tightly: "This thing is most likely the last creation before the empire fell asleep, or at least the closest creation to that point in time that we have discovered."
"I will do my best to crack its secrets." Tavel also realized the importance of the situation and immediately connected his command link. "Attention of the seventh research team and the teams after the number, the code-named tl-153 research and development project has been raised to The first priority is to crack the Rubik's Cube with all our strength..."
At this moment, a burst of rapid footsteps suddenly sounded in the research hall, and then a girl's voice rang out: "Wait a minute!"
A sudden voice in the hall interrupted Tavel's order. I looked around in surprise and saw Lin Xue hurried over, covering her eyes.
"Xue girl? Why are you here?"
"Arjun, don't try to crack the Rubik's Cube by force, absolutely don't!"
I was startled by Lin Xue's sudden intrusion and such unusual excitement. I didn't even care to pay attention to the affectionate name "Ajun" she just casually said. Only Sandora beside me frowned slightly. But soon, she focused her attention on Lin Xue's right hand covering her eyes, and immediately asked in surprise: "Lin Xue? What's wrong with your eyes?"
"I'm fine!" Lin Xue shook my shoulder vigorously with her free left hand, "Mumu, don't forcefully crack the Rubik's Cube. If you can, even if you give up on it, don't..."
I didn't pay attention to what Lin Xue was going to say next, but used a very strong method to remove her hand covering her right eye.
The bright red blood was flashing with absolutely abnormal blue fluorescence and was gradually overflowing from the eye sockets. The girl's originally smart eyes were now emitting white light like glowing glass. What could be vaguely seen inside were a large amount of hair-like things. Energy sparks expanded vertically and horizontally, and these sparks even burst outside the eye sockets. Their nature could not be analyzed, but the eyes of the girl in front of her were obviously being gradually damaged under the influence of these energies.
"Medic!"
"I'm fine!" Lin Xue grabbed my shoulder with force, "It's just that I overused my ability and slightly damaged the blood vessels under my eyes... Not to mention this, Mu Mu, there are very dangerous things in this Rubik's Cube. If you crack it forcefully, it will release them... ...No, I know what you want to say, but they are not abyss. No matter how many guards are deployed, it is useless. It is something that the Xiling people have researched by themselves. They can't control it... They can't control it for the time being. We will find a way, but then It takes time, just ask Tavel to slow down the progress, be careful again, if possible, let only one research team analyze it, it will not activate it, or even give up this thing..."
Lin Xue's words were a little confusing, but Tavel had already understood. After receiving confirmation from my eyes, she nodded obediently: "Follow your will, although this may cause us to be unable to crack the Rubik's Cube within a year, but ...A million years have passed, it doesn’t matter if it takes one or two years.”
After receiving Tavel's promise, Lin Xue's bleeding right eye once again flashed with more dazzling light, then she grinned and whispered: "Okay, I saw it, it's safe."
"Are you still using your abilities?!"
I almost couldn't help but forcefully freeze Lin Xue's power. What a fool. Since it is a dangerous thing that even the Xiling apostles can't resist, I still have to forcefully spy on it, and even let myself become like this. This girl...
What a nonsense! !
"It doesn't matter." Because she lost control, Lin Xue had to forcefully close her right eye with her hand, then bent down, holding her knees and breathing heavily, "I am very powerful, don't worry, wooden , I am measured."
"Can we call the medical team now?" Holding Lin Xue's shoulder, although I asked in a questioning tone, my mental connection had already issued the order to summon the medical team.
"Whatever, it only takes two bottles of eye drops to survive anyway!" Lin Xue was stubborn and stubborn to deal with me, but the shocking line of blood and tears on that pretty face made me decisively ignore the pretentiousness of this young lady who wanted to save face. , almost forcibly pressing her into the medical cabin brought by the medics. I only left one sentence: "No matter what you saw, listen, wait until you recover! I am your boss, this is an order!"
Lying in the medical cabin, Lin Xue looked a little dazed. Then she smiled inexplicably, raised her hands, and said with a cheeky look: "One last question: Mu Mu, can I not use this medical cabin?"
I looked helplessly at the innocent Tavel beside me: "Look at your Jenovain style! Isn't it a coffin with a flipped lid?"
The two medical soldiers disappeared from our sight while carrying Miss Lin, who was undergoing constant surgery. Shandora and I looked at each other speechlessly.
I can’t remember the first time that Lin Xue appeared like this, reminding me of the disaster that would be caused by the carelessness of one of us, but this time, she even hesitated to harm herself. I really don’t know what she saw.
"We definitely caught some big fish this time." With mixed emotions, I turned my head and looked at the disintegrated cube that was slowly rotating in mid-air, "but I don't know if it's a blessing or a curse."
"As long as Lin Xue is here," Sandora sighed softly, "The Rubik's Cube may contain the last record of the sleeping empire, but at the same time, it may also seal something dangerous inside. Lin Xue may want to Tell us this—Arjun, don’t you go over and see that girl?”
"She will definitely kick me out." I scratched my hair. Just now I used a series of supersonic hand knives to smash a young lady into the coffin medical cabin.
Shandora looked at me intently for a while, making my hair stand on end, and then sighed helplessly: "I really don't know what I am...forget it, what kind of heart do I have? Don't forget it after Lin Xue recovers a little." Go thank her and go back now, I don’t want to see this cube for the time being.”
"Following your order," Tavel bowed seriously, "The analysis of the core of the Rubik's Cube will be ranked at the lowest priority as planned. We will ask your majesties for permission before accessing the core information."
What happened today was really sudden. Whether it was the discovery that the "Rubik's Cube" might contain records of the Empire's sleeping state, or Lin Xue's sudden intrusion, it was extremely unexpected, and even a little at a loss. Sandora was looking at the cube now and was upset. I was about the same. After taking a brief look at several of Tavel's ongoing research reports, we returned to Shadow City.
There is always something annoying in my heart. Maybe I am not mature enough yet and cannot take such big things as lightly as a leader like Sandora who has been in power for a long time. The things about the Rubik's Cube and Lin Xue's warning are always swirling in my mind, and Sandora After saying hello and going back later in the evening, I wandered aimlessly in the Shadow City alone.
Walking alone in the quiet streets, my mood finally calmed down in this environment.
It's really a deserted city.
Wandering on the streets of the city, I couldn't help but feel this way.
Although there are already 10,000 Misaka sisters as permanent residents, a large number of lower-level empire commanders live in various nodes of the city, and residential communities in various worlds have been established and heroes from other worlds occasionally visit, but for an initial Based on a city with a population of one million, this number of residents is still too few for a giant "city" whose entire area has expanded five or six times in the later period.
You see, there is not even a seller in the corner.
However, when passing by a crossroads in Xicheng District, I bumped into two Misaka girls who happened to be out shopping, which finally made my boring wandering a little unexpected.
"Hey, Misaka."
With a warm smile, I greeted the two people from a distance. They seemed to be planning to cross the street and were waiting for the traffic light to turn green - even though there was not a single car here.
Although the two girls in front of them are still wearing the Tokiwadai uniforms that almost never change (in fact, this is the clothes they are most accustomed to), their expressions are also stiff, and they wear indiscriminate night vision glasses on their heads. But I still noticed the difference between them carefully. The girl on the left wore a small star-shaped hairpin in her hair, while the girl on the right wore a hairpin on her hand that God knows which unscrupulous Imperial soldier bought it. The bracelet, even though it was just a small decoration, gave me a little surprise.
It seems that the Misakas have gradually developed a sense of "humanity".
"Ah, it's Onii-sama. Misaka 10915 (11325) happily greets Onii-sama with a feeling of surprise."
But there is still no progress at all in terms of speaking...
"Going out to shop?" I looked at the two girls in front of me curiously. They were holding large shopping bags in their hands, with everything in them, from pesticides to Coke soda, filling two large pockets.
Although it still looks a bit deserted, there are still many shops, pedestrian streets and other places in most areas of Shadow City. Even if there are often uninhabited blank areas next to a bustling commercial street, these places are still Misaka Sisters. They would also occasionally go shopping in places they liked to visit. Compared with having the Imperial soldiers arrange all their daily life, such activities could help them gain a sense of normal life faster.
"Well, it's to complete this week's practical homework! Misaka 10915 said proudly while showing the bag in her hand to Onii-sama."
"Practical homework? Assigned by the school?" I showed an interesting expression.
The place where the Misaka sisters go to school is a school named "Neon Genesis Evangelion Gundam Save the World Good Boy Empire's highest comprehensive military academy" by Qian Qian, but for the sake of reliability, it is usually referred to as "Imperial High Military Academy". Since Qian Qian holds the honorary title Dean of Education, so the school’s philosophy is to “let every teenager over 14 years old be able to drive a Gundam, and let every elementary school loli learn SLB and fly at a speed of two miles per second.” Of course , after excluding these nonsense things, it is just an ordinary (...) school with complete facilities (full set of Xiling equipment) and terrifying teaching staff (even temporary trainee teachers must be imperial instructors or heroes of various races).
If you think about it this way, the Misaka sisters should really make students all over the world envious and jealous. Even in physical education classes, you can occasionally see the Tauren Chief and the Dwarf King wrestling with each other. Most people will have to endure such experiences. How many times have you failed and risked being transformed?
But I really didn’t expect that those guys would also give homework?
"The teacher who used to call himself the Duke gave us an assignment, how to make a 'cactus' bomb using pesticides and soda cans. Misaka 10915 once again beat Misaka Road."
"Because the fragments of soda cans will form radioactive needle clusters when the bomb explodes, it is called a 'cactus' bomb," Misaka 11325 finally found a chance to interject and hurriedly added.
I:"……"
There aren't any spies planted by the Pandora sisters on the college council, right? For the healthy growth of the Misakas, I worked hard to suppress Viska's desire to coach in person.
As a guardian, of course I can't ignore this kind of thing. God knows when more than 10,000 Misakas will really make those war mad men turn into terrorists who drive Unit-1 and let out starbursts all over the sky. Fortunately, this unexpected incident I temporarily diverted my attention, and after I found the senior warmonger who taught students how to make bombs in the junior high school and solved a little social crisis, I almost forgot about the Rubik's Cube problem.
It was still lively at night, but the only missing person was Lin Xue, who was eating for dinner. She was probably still sleeping in the medical cabin at this time, although it seemed that she was quieter without the always noisy eldest lady. Not much, but to be honest, I am really worried about it.
I don't know if Lin Xue's family will be worried - I'm afraid they are used to it. Such a mysterious daughter who is always performing tasks outside must have long ago trained her parents' nerves to the point where they are invulnerable. .
I hope...that girl doesn't have any problems.
