Chapter 139 Efficient Cleanup
Luo Qing had no doubt that MOSS was problematic.

The problem is that Luo Qing couldn't find out where MOSS's 'problem' lay.

Abandon the space fleet construction, abandon mainstream defense plans, and pursue the wandering Mercury project?
Is this MOSS's purpose?

The Three-Body Crisis and the Solar Helium Flash Crisis led MOSS to conclude that humanity's wandering to Mercury was the best solution.

If we only consider the Three-Body Crisis, MOSS's actions and objectives seem somewhat far-fetched.

And we begin with the conclusion of the solar helium flash...

The sun is unlikely to undergo a helium flash.
Luo Qing's judgment was naturally based on theory. He would not believe MOSS's one-sided story, although he would still believe it on the surface. Who knew how much quantum analysis this artificial intelligence had built based on his personality? Every word he said might be in its calculations.

If one day one comes along:
The sloppy story of "Luo Qing, the Wallfacer, I am your Wallbreaker MOSS" is something we'll definitely get into.

There are three assertions regarding the sun's inability to undergo a helium flash.

On the one hand, the probability of a main-sequence star suddenly experiencing a helium flash while perfectly healthy is extremely small. The probability is so small it's almost zero; the more macroscopic the object, the lower the likelihood of such a drastic change.

Secondly, he had just discovered nine sophons near MOSS. These sophons should have communicated with MOSS. Although there was no evidence for this, Luo Qing did not need evidence.

If you say you communicated with Tomoko, then you did communicate with Tomoko.

Therefore, the possibility that this MOSS was deceived by the Sophon, or even defected to the enemy, cannot be ruled out.

Thirdly, his divine sense scanned the sun inside and out many times, but he never found any signs of an impending helium flash. One thing MOSS didn't know was that his divine sense was sufficient to cover the microscopic scale; otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to perceive the sophon. Therefore, Luo Qing could perceive the subtle changes MOSS mentioned, such as the increase in internal pressure and the sudden change in core temperature.

After repeated confirmation, Luo Qing was certain:
This is a very healthy sun.

The solar system's stable era will continue for another 50 billion years!

No force can destroy the great sun!
Luo Qing's soul strength is simply insufficient to support ultra-high-speed analysis and calculations like those of a quantum computer; he's not stupid.

In short, it is obviously not advisable to easily abandon the mainstream defense plan and the construction of the space fleet. Luo Qing is not in a hurry to confront MOSS and will first see what it wants to do.

Antarctic hibernation base.

With a quick scan using his divine sense, Luo Qing soon discovered that the scale of the hibernation chambers at the Antarctic hibernation base had reached over a million.

Millions of people participated in hibernation—if it weren't for the unlimited energy provided by controlled nuclear fusion and the maintenance work assisted by general-purpose industrial robots, humanity would never dare to build a hibernation base of such scale.

Of these millions of people, official hibernators make up only three-tenths, while commercialized wealthy hibernators make up seven-tenths. Of course, in order to balance the gap between the rich and the poor in society, the Hibernator Protection Act stipulates that hibernators must unconditionally confiscate 90% of their property or distribute it equally to the lower classes.

The provisions of this bill directly quelled public anger—after all, whenever a Forbes-listed billionaire chooses to go into hibernation, their assets, after being divided, will be deposited into everyone's bank accounts under the supervision of MOSS.

The public wishes all the rich people would go into hibernation.

Those extreme organizations that opposed hibernation and 'inequality of life' lost their footing and gradually disappeared under these circumstances.

We will not allow you to slander the great hibernation policy.
Of course, there are also a considerable number of wealthy people who want to hibernate but are unwilling to be "exploited" by the Hibernator Protection Act. They can only turn their attention to private hibernation companies. Under this demand, many hibernation service companies have sprung up like mushrooms after rain.

With their sophisticated hibernation technology, meticulous service, and elite security forces at their hibernation sites that provide a sense of security, these private hibernation companies have attracted a large number of wealthy individuals.

The wealthy have successfully avoided the 'exploitation' of the Sleepers Protection Act and have deposited their assets into long-term accounts at major banks.

Little did they know that fate had already secretly marked a price on every gift they received.

For a long time, all safeguards based on laws, capital, and force have been like rootless duckweed.

The Antarctic hibernation base remains the largest official hibernation area for humans, and Luo Qing quickly found his old friend among the millions of hibernators.

"Unfreeze Dr. Ding Yi; the equatorial particle accelerator he was looking forward to is now fully completed," Luo Qing said to the head of the hibernation zone.

While Ding Yi's thawing process was underway, Luo Qing went to check on the other hibernators who were closely associated with him. Two of them, Wallfacers, Luo Ji and Hines, were in the core hibernation zone and were under strict protection.

After confirming that the two people were still alive, Luo Qing did not disturb them further. Instead, he turned to look at the others, checking on everyone he had met even once.

Zhuang Yan, Luo Zhenxing, Shi Qiang, Weide, Cheng Xin, Zhang Beihai, Shanshan Huizi, Tu Hengyu...

That's good, they're all still alive.

It is worth mentioning that Luo Ji, the Wallfacer, still wore the spirit stone fragment pendant during his hibernation. The pendant had become dull and lifeless, as if it had lost all its spiritual energy.

Luo Qing keenly sensed a trace of spiritual energy flowing within Luo Ji's body.

The value is roughly... around the level of a Qi Refining cultivator?
It's a minor issue, no need to worry about it; it's just a matter of practicing Qi.

Luo Qing pondered for a while longer and then marked each of these people's hibernation pods to ensure that he would receive the news immediately when they left the pods.

He also installed a protective array in each of Luo Ji's and Hines's hibernation pods. This array could automatically deploy when it detected danger. The defensive strength was very low, but it could barely withstand the explosion of a stellar nuclear bomb.

As for Radiaz...

There's no need to worry about Radiaz's hibernation pod being located at the Mercury Vapor Base.

Although Luo Qing already knew that the five permanent members of the UN Security Council were stationed in different areas along the edge of Antarctica to prevent enemy infiltration, he was still aware of this.

However, Luo Qing did not fully trust the armies of the major powers. After all, in the past 50 years, there had been small-scale sabotage incidents of infiltrating Antarctic hibernation bases. Although no major harm had been caused, the risks were indeed present.

...

During the two months that Ding Yi was awakened from hibernation.

Luo Qing was not idle either.

He visited the Einstein-Equatorial Particle Accelerator, the first human-made starship "Adam", the first human-made Martian city "New Age City", the desertified Amazon rainforest and the ecologically collapsing Eurasian and African continents, the three "planetary engines" on the lunar base, and even inspected a space formation consisting of 70 planetary-class warships and one starship, and also completed a military exercise.

However, unlike the Pacific Collaboration-2015 that took place 70 years ago, Luo Qing did not use lethal force this time; his attacks were all virtual.

In near-Earth orbit, Luo Qing unleashed the combat power he had displayed fifty years ago, limiting his space escape speed to 1% of the speed of light. Within three hours, he decisively defeated the human space fleet.

—The space fleet was entirely commanded by human commanders and was not connected to MOSS. Of the 71 human space warships, none survived the simulation exercise.

Of course, the human space fleet did not operate alone; the near-Earth orbit defense system and the lunar defense system also participated in the exercise.

Luo Qing also simulated the destruction of the near-Earth orbit defense system that humanity had initially completed in the simulation exercise. An ordinary iron sword transformed into thousands of sword lights, piercing through all the armed satellites in geosynchronous orbit.

As for the surface of the Sea of ​​Tranquility on the moon, the massive electromagnetic railgun firing matrix, high-energy laser interception matrix, and stellar nuclear missile firing matrix, along with the three major defensive plates, were pinned down by three giant sword phantoms, each over a thousand feet long, signaling the destruction of the lunar defense base.

The Planetary Defense Council raised no objection to the outcome of the exercise.

After demonstrating this astonishing combat prowess, Wallfacer Luo Qing announced that he would be touring the world.

He shared his next steps with the public.

— Discover, destroy, and kill all terrorists and members of the Earth-Three-Body Organization.

Upon hearing this statement, members of 17 terrorist organizations, totaling 100,000 people, active in the Middle East, Central Asia, North Africa, and South America, announced their unconditional surrender to various countries.

It is worth mentioning that amidst this wave of surrenders by terrorist organizations, the Earth-Three-Body Organization remained unmoved, seemingly disappearing from public view as if it had vanished completely.

There will be more tonight, but it will be in the middle of the night.
