As soon as Manison finished speaking, the atmosphere in the conference room instantly fell silent.
Everyone's eyes turned to Manison in unison. Their eyes were filled with a "what the f * ck" emotion.
Listen to this, is that something a human would say?
Han Xiao almost gasped. He could not help but size Manison up with a strange gaze.
"Do you really have 50 million Lord's Avatars as carriers?"
"Maybe I'm exaggerating a little. This is just an imaginary number." Manison laughed.
That's more like it. These things are not mechanical soldiers. How can I make so many? I don't even have 5,000 … cough, 50,000 backup Lord's Avatars.
Han Xiao secretly heaved a sigh of relief and subconsciously asked,
He subconsciously asked, "How many do you have?"
"48 million, 1052 … Oh, 54. Speaking of which, there are two more now."
"…"
The world fell silent.
Han Xiao's mouth twitched. His mind was a little messed up. He could not understand at all.
"No, I can understand how many mechanical soldiers you make, but what's the use of so many Lord's Avatars? Only one can descend at a time. It's a waste to have more. Can you use them all? "
Manison: "Oh, I lack a sense of security. It's better to be prepared."
The world fell silent again.
You, the great Mecha Empire, lack a sense of security? I f * cking … Sure, this is a very strong reason.
Other than calling him shameless, the people present had nothing to say.
Han Xiao just wanted to blow Manison's head off.
This is showing off, right? This is definitely showing off!
Almost 50 million Lord's Avatars, and you're still a human? How rich do you have to be to dare to do this?
This is going to take over all the ambush locations. So what if you have money?
Sensing Black Star's resentment that was about to overflow, Manison smiled faintly and gave him a look.
Yes, it's great to have money. Thank you for your help.
Han Xiao gritted his teeth and sent Manison a private message.
"Don't try to fool us. You've created tens of millions of sovereign clones. That's a waste of resources!"
"Hehe, you're still too young. The Mechanical Race has nothing but machines …" Manison smiled and stroked his beard. He thought for a while and added, "And money."
Damn, I almost forgot that you're a second-generation heir!
Rich dog!
Han Xiao felt as if he had eaten ten lemons. He secretly gritted his teeth.
"I was the one who came up with the plan. Shouldn't you do something about it? Why don't you give me ten million sovereign clones? "
"My doppelganger has my own size. You can't use it, so what do you want it for?" Manison raised his eyebrows.
"I can reforge ten million sovereign avatars. The cost of the materials isn't a small sum."
"Sure, give me the Spacetime Amber in exchange."
"Crawl!"
Han Xiao's face darkened, and he decisively ended the private chat.
That old fogey craves my Spacetime Amber every day. Bad thing!
As the two of them exchanged glances, the people in charge of the three Universal Civilizations also glanced back and forth between the two of them with strong suspicion in their eyes.
One was the president of the Beyond Grade A Development Union, and the other was the vice president …
These two probably colluded to put on an act, right?
Sidreun coughed and resisted the urge to eat something delicious. He forced a smile and said, "That's right.
"We're very grateful for Your Excellency's generosity, but the battle plan hasn't been decided yet. There's no need to rush …"
"That's true."
Manison nodded and casually raised his hand, indicating that he was just casually speaking and that they could continue chatting.
Sidreun then turned to look at Han Xiao and said with a deep voice,
"Your Excellency Black Star, your idea seems good, but its feasibility is still questionable. First, we have to ensure that the virus core returns to the quantum network. Only then can we cut off the network on a large scale and control the other party's exit range. However, how do we determine when it logs onto the network? You have to know that those virus packets don't have a uniform time to send feedback data, so we can't determine when the virus core comes online.
Secondly, we can't even lock onto the data form of the virus core for the time being, so it's difficult to track it on the network. If it stays in the quantum network, will we not be able to find it? "
"Therefore, this is only a prototype of the idea. We still need to perfect the details, but the general idea should be feasible," Han Xiao said.
"There are ways to solve all these problems. Since we know that the virus core is a life form and have its details, we can use this as an anchor point and use prophecy magic to find the other party's login time," Kant added.
"Regarding the data form of the virus core, I can provide some details," Manison said. "Although I didn't catch it, I recorded the data traces it left behind when it was active in the quantum network. These are the other party's characteristics. We should be able to lock onto its data form by scanning and matching it."
Everyone discussed for a while and gradually perfected the details. They all felt that this battle plan was worth a try.
At this time, Schidrunn raised one last condition.
"I have one last question. Participating in this battle plan doesn't necessarily require mastery of Virtual Paramount. Every Beyond Grade A Mechanic should have the ability to catch the virus core. If all the Beyond Grade As here participate, the chances will be higher."
He did not believe Han Xiao's nonsense. If Beyond Grade A Mechanics had the ability to catch the virus core, how could they have to master Virtual Paramount? That had to be a scheme by Black Star and the Mecha Empire to monopolize it.
"We have no objections. We're happy to help." The others all agreed.
Of course, none of you have any objections. You have a chance to fight for the virus core. What objections can you have … Han Xiao thought to himself.
"Then, it's settled."
Sidreun slapped the table and said with a serious expression.
"This plan still needs to be approved by the upper echelons. The two people in charge and I have to report it. There will be a result very soon, and it should be very smooth. This operation will rely on the abilities of all of you Beyond Grade As. I hope that all of you are well prepared. The safety of the universe will depend on all of you."
…
Deactivating the remote projection, Han Xiao's gaze returned to the office.
He bent his finger and casually knocked on the table.
All the Beyond Grade A Mechanics would participate in the operation to catch the virus core. Everyone wanted to fight for the virus core, so choosing the ambush location was of utmost importance.
This was a matter of probability. The more clones there were, the higher the chances of them ambushing the virus core. In this aspect, no one could compare to the Mecha Empire.
In comparison, Han Xiao had very few backup Lord's Clones. It was not that he lacked money, but to him, creating too many of them was useless. He could only send one clone at a time, and it was basically used to guard the base.
Old Manison clearly had bad intentions for creating so many clones. He probably wanted to guard countless planets one day.
Humph! His ambition was clear as day!
"Manison probably has more Lord's Clones than the trap nodes. He'll definitely be able to find the virus core and be in an invincible position. I can only rely on my luck, and it's the same for the others …"
Han Xiao rubbed his forehead.
There was no limit to the number of ambushers at the same location. Manison was everywhere, and there was no way to avoid him. This was too difficult.
When the three Universal Civilizations finalize the star map of the trap nodes, I'll get Harrison to help me choose the ambush location …
If my luck fails and I don't find the virus core, that's fine.
However, if I find it, Manison's clones will most likely be nearby, and I'll have to compete with him. It'll definitely be a situation where I don't need to use my fists.
"I can only play it by ear …" Han Xiao sighed.
If there was any advantage he had, it would be that he did not need to care about the survival of the virus core.
Other people would want to capture him alive and analyze the complete technology behind the Domino Virus, but he had the [Intelligent Plague] mission. Personally destroying the core of the virus would give him a related specialty. With the characteristics of the Domino Virus, the related specialty would probably be a virtual ability.
Although this would mean that he would lose the opportunity to obtain the complete technology, thinking about it carefully, if such a threatening virtual virus was analyzed by the three Universal Civilizations or other Beyond Grade As, it might not be a good thing. Furthermore, even if he succeeded, it would be a hot potato. Countless people, including the three Universal Civilizations, would have their eyes on him.
However … the Domino Virus technology could also become one of the weapons against the World Tree Civilization.
Han Xiao was in a dilemma as to what to do.
"Forget it, it's still too early to think about this. I have to ensure that I can encounter the virus first. Only then will I have the qualifications to compete with Manison …"
He calmed himself down.
Anyway, this was going to be a large-scale operation, and the preparation period was not short. He had a lot of time, so he could add some production lines to create as many Lord's Clones as possible and place them in more ambush locations to increase the probability of him encountering the virus core.
…
"This is Black Star's intelligence?"
On the other side, the remote projections of the three Universal Civilizations' leaders gathered together to listen to the report from Schidrunn and the others.
Right after the meeting held by Black Star ended, the three supervisors introduced the battle plan to the three leaders through the only encrypted external communication channel, hoping to obtain permission.
After hearing the whole story, Uranril crossed her arms in front of her chest and slowly spoke.
"If Black Star's intelligence is true, he will be a great contributor to the explored universe, saving the disaster from the storm. Without his foresight, we would have had to pay the price of blood to discover the true face of the Virtual Mutiny Virus."
"Hmm, this plan was also proposed by him. If the virus core is captured because of this, Black Star will be the hero of the entire universe, changing the future that he predicted." Bader also expressed his appreciation.
"Black Star has indeed contributed," the Ethereal Pope said calmly.
Putting aside their past grudges, the Radiant Federation and the Arcane Church greatly appreciated Han Xiao's performance during the Intelligent Plague. In their eyes, he was very reliable and had contributed greatly.
Thinking of this, the three of them looked at each other and nodded.
"We approve this operation. We allow you to mobilize the resources of the Ancient Star Desert to carry out this battle plan. Don't disappoint us."
"Understood," Schidrunn hurriedly agreed.
This time, the Ethereal Pope suddenly said, "There's another thing.
Make sure that the virus core is controlled by us in the end. Don't let other Beyond Grade As get their hands on it. "
"That's right. The Virtual Mutiny Virus is a weapon of war. It's too dangerous. We definitely can't let this technology spread, or the order of the universe will be threatened."
Bader agreed and added, "Especially Black Star and the Mecha Empire. If a peak Beyond Grade A Virtual Mechanic obtains this technology and improves it, it might evolve into a hidden danger even more terrifying than the Intelligent Plague."
Even though Manison was an ally of the Radiant Federation, Bader was not biased.
Although they all wanted to obtain this technology, the three of them understood that preventing a fourth party from controlling the virus was a more important task.
In the eyes of the three Universal Civilizations, this kind of weapon of war with strategic deterrence was only beneficial to the entire universe if they monopolized it.
…
Somewhere in the Ancient Star Desert, a desolate planet welcomed a small civilian transport fleet.
This was a legal interstellar transport company. It was not large, and it was not famous. It only operated a few fixed routes, and its business scope was limited to a few Star Zones in the same Star System. There was a small desolate universe belt here. Because it was not large, the advanced civilizations did not set up stargates. Thus, many long-distance transport companies were created to cross this desolate universe belt.
At this time, the transport fleet slowly stopped outside the planet's atmosphere.
"Resupply here. This planet has fuel resources. Go up and collect some."
In the main ship, a senior captain who had worked in this transport company for many years gave the order.
This time, a member of the exploration team suddenly exclaimed in surprise.
"Reporting to the captain, the radar detection shows that this planet is shrouded in a strange electromagnetic field storm."
The captain was stunned. He came to the porthole and found that the atmosphere of this desolate planet was constantly flashing with light blue plasma arcs, looking like a looming electromagnetic shell.
"That's strange. I've been running this transport route for decades, and I don't know how many times I've stopped at this planet. When did this electromagnetic field storm phenomenon appear here?"
The captain muttered to himself and went to the radar to check the detection results.
The energy structure of the electromagnetic field appeared on the screen, and the more he looked at it, the more familiar it seemed.
"This electromagnetic field model …" A member of the exploration team hesitated. "Why does it look a little like the bioelectric network of the brain's neuron activity?"
The captain was shocked. When he looked closer, the structure of this electromagnetic field was like a brain magnified countless times.
"Could it be alive? It can't be an electromagnetic field life form, right? "
The captain was surprised. This kind of field-type life form had always been a rare life form. It could be sold to collectors with special tastes, and the price was not cheap.
Thinking of this, the captain hurriedly gave the order.
"Quick, find a way to capture it. This is an unexpected gain!"
However, as soon as he said that, the electromagnetic field storm that shrouded the planet suddenly dissipated and disappeared into thin air. It also disappeared on the radar as if it had never appeared.
The members in the cabin were stunned.
"Are my eyes playing tricks on me?"
The captain rubbed his eyes with a look of surprise.
