[Urgent Mission: Intelligence Crisis]
[Description: Pandora's Box has been opened. The whispers across a hundred years have finally been responded to in the distant future. Standing at the crossroads of fate, whether it is left or right, the ending does not seem to be too bad? However, survival or destruction, this is a question worth considering.]
[Requirements: Avoid the destruction of civilization.]
[Reward:???]
Destruction of civilization …
This word seemed to have a temperature. In an instant, the temperature of Lu Zhou's body disappeared.
Staring at the holographic window floating in front of him, Lu Zhou, who was tense, took a deep breath, calmed himself down, and focused his attention on the mission prompt.
Based on his past experience, the observer behind this system might joke with him, but most of the time, especially when issuing urgent missions, they were basically serious.
If he allowed things to continue to develop until they were completely out of control, the final outcome was likely to be unacceptable …
After spending about five minutes "reading the question" again, Lu Zhou, who had been thinking for a long time, suddenly frowned slightly and muttered in a voice that only he could hear.
"Intelligence crisis …
"What the hell is it?"
Is it the ALPHA virus?
It seems to be the case.
In other words, anyone sitting in his current position would have almost the same idea in the face of today's situation.
However, Lu Zhou felt that something was wrong.
Unlike the previous two urgent missions, in the first urgent mission, the system straightforwardly pointed out that the crisis was the Martian bacteria that invaded the Earth's ecosystem. In the second crisis, the system also clearly told him that the way to complete the mission was to "give a logical and self-consistent explanation for the abnormal experimental data".
However, in this emergency mission, the system did not even specify what the 'intelligence crisis' that he or the civilization of mankind was facing was. Even the objective of completing the mission was only a vague 'avoid the destruction of civilization'.
"If androids are also a part of human civilization, and humans themselves perished in the crisis, and androids with intermediate or even advanced intelligence survived, can this be regarded as the destruction of civilization … Wait, could it be —"
The moment he read this sentence softly, Lu Zhou's pupils shrank slightly.
At this moment, he finally realized what was wrong.
This was not a word game, nor was it a joke from a superior civilization. The attitude displayed by the System itself was very ambiguous.
The destruction of civilization?
Which civilization was destroyed?
If it's just to avoid the destruction of civilization, doesn't that mean that even if I don't do anything, or even stand on the side of the androids to help the awakened to complete the supreme evolution and preserve human civilization in the form of machinery, it would also be considered as mission completion?
As long as the final result wasn't that both sides would perish at the same time in an evenly matched confrontation …
A terrifying thought suddenly emerged in Lu Zhou's mind.
Perhaps for the system, or the Observer civilization behind the system, no matter what the outcome of human civilization was at this point in time, they could accept it.
However, he was human.
He couldn't accept such an ending no matter what!
"For algebraic geometry problems, the key to solving the problem is to see the essence through the phenomenon … In this case, the ALPHA virus may be only one of the results caused by the crisis, even including The Spirit of The Universe Foundation."
Biting his lower lip lightly, Lu Zhou's brain was spinning fast at this moment. Almost every brain cell was running to the limit.
His gaze wandered in the study room. At this moment, his gaze suddenly fell on the diary in the corner of the desk.
Lu Zhou suddenly thought of something, so he immediately reached out and picked up the diary again.
He quickly skipped the page numbers that had been marked and turned directly to the first page of the diary.
It was at the same time that his pupils shrank into a point.
"I see."
This experiment …
It started a long time ago.
The bracelet on Lu Zhou's left wrist suddenly flickered slightly. After seeing the caller's name, Lu Zhou did not hesitate and immediately pressed the answer button.
Unsurprisingly, Captain Xing's face appeared in the projected holographic beam. He had an excited expression on his face. Before he could speak, everything he wanted to say was already written on his face.
"We did it!"
"Got it."
Looking at Lu Zhou's calm face, Xing Bian, who was excited, was slightly stunned. He didn't react for a while. He was sure that he was the first person to know the news, but looking at Lu Zhou's expression …
It seems like he already knows?
"You … know what I want to say?"
"The program that the computer on Ceres is calculating, right?"
With a strange expression on his face, Xing Bian nodded.
"Yes … But how did you know?"
"I guessed." Lu Zhou said casually, "By the way, let me guess, taking into account the time difference … The completion time was about ten minutes ago?"
At this moment, Ceres and Earth happened to be in a relatively close position. Taking into account the time difference, it should be about ten to fifteen minutes. Judging from the expression on Captain Xing's face, there was a high probability that he guessed correctly.
However, this incident also confirmed the conjecture made by Lu Zhou a century ago.
That was, there should be no concept of time on the n + 1 chord.
Otherwise, if the information was transmitted strictly at the speed of light, he should have received the urgent mission prompt the moment he received the call from Captain Xing, which was now, instead of ten minutes in advance.
Thinking of this, Lu Zhou was more certain of his guess.
The real intelligence crisis should have nothing to do with the ALPHA virus. Just as he guessed, the root of everything was the supercomputing center on Ceres!
Looking at the bust standing in the holographic beam, Lu Zhou asked.
"Where are you now?"
"Me? I'm on the Moon Palace now, and I came back with the First Fleet. Now that our fleet has reached the lunar orbit, and the Third Orbital Airborne Brigade is ready to go, it's time to put an end to this farce! "
When he said this, the corners of Xing Bian's mouth were raised with a triumphant arc. Although he had always been cautious, at this moment, he really couldn't think of any possible reasons for failure.
According to the conclusion of the Academy of Sciences, the results of the supercomputing center would help them complete the "vaccine" of the ALPHA virus. As long as a comprehensive version update was carried out on the robots in Pan-Asia, all crises could be strangled in the bud.
As for the robots that had gone berserk in Guanghan City …
They could be destroyed physically.
The Army of Pan-Asian Cooperation was recognized as the strongest in the solar system!
However, after hearing this optimistic statement, Lu Zhou shook his head.
"It's not that simple."
Thinking that Lu Zhou was worried about the turmoil in Guanghan City, Xing Bian smiled and spoke.
"Of course, it will take a while to kill 100,000 chickens, let alone robots. However, they have no logistical support. In three days at most, we can drown them in the sewer or pull out their batteries.
"As for the engineers of East Asia Power, I guarantee that they will stand in front of you."
"I don't mean the ALPHA virus, but Ceres." Lu Zhou shook his head and continued, "Is there a way to go there?"
Xing Bian was slightly taken aback.
"Go to Ceres?"
Lu Zhou nodded and spoke in an affirmative tone.
"Yes."
"No problem, but why do you suddenly want to go to that place —"
"There's no problem."
Lu Zhou showed the majesty of an academic leader. He stared seriously at Xing Bian, who was standing in the holographic beam, and spoke in an unquestionable tone.
"Time is running out. I will set off now and wait for you at the customs entrance of the Tianzhou! Arrange transportation immediately. It's best to set off as soon as we meet! "
After hanging up the phone, Lu Zhou stood up from the desk, stuffed the diary on the desk into the computer bag at the corner of the desk, and then threw the backpack on his shoulder.
He only planned to bring so much luggage on this trip.
If everything went well, it wouldn't be long before he came back.
If he failed …
He didn't want to think about that possibility.
I hope it's not too late …
