Captain, your ship has exploded again.
Chapter 666 Marcus's Upgrade Plan
In front of the command console in the operations room, several key members of the squad were gathered around, while others who were not interested were just watching from the sidelines.
Zhang Xun's head was placed next to the command platform as he said, "First, use the lunar debris. Use the Death Star's small traction beams (to guide fighters and escort ships) to gather the debris together. With its own mass plus the moon's mass, it will prevent the Blue Star from falling to the sun."
Shen Yuexin frowned and pointed to the simulated Death Star wreckage in the holographic image, saying, "The problem is that Death Star II's engines are severely damaged. Although it is not a primary target, given the current structural fragility of the Death Star, it will be difficult to pull Blue Star back to its original orbit."
As Tianwen continues its simulation, if the Death Star is forced to overload its engines, it will only disintegrate into two halves.
"Yes, the Death Star's mission is merely to buy time. Even if our factories are relatively intact, our production capacity is insufficient to manufacture the tools needed to deal with this catastrophe in less than thirty days."
Zhang Xun has only been in the Super Variant World for less than four months. Although nearly a hundred battleships seem like a lot, for a celestial body with a diameter of 1.3, their mass is only enough to coat it.
Changing the orbit of a celestial body is not the same as executing an extermination order; saving it is far more difficult than destroying it.
As Zhang Xun's bedmate, Natal knew very well what Zhang Xun was planning.
"Using the remains of Primordial Celestial and Unicron isn't impossible, but even with the Death Star as a constraint, using two entities with a combined mass in the trillions of tons as materials, we still can't complete the modification within this timeframe..."
As two silicon-based remnants with a mass much larger than Earth, recycling and reuse have long been included in the plan, but no one is optimistic about transforming them.
At this point, Natal immediately understood everything: Zhang Xun had no intention of modifying the two remains; he wanted to revive them.
"No, this is not possible. In our current state, we simply cannot withstand another battle against a life form of this scale."
Natal rejected Zhang Xun's plan outright, saying it was too risky, practically gambling with the entire space mission.
Zhang Xun nodded and said, "I know this is dangerous, so I plan to have Marcus take the core role."
At that moment, everyone looked at Marcus. As the member of the team closest to silicon-based life, everyone doubted whether his carbon-based brain could complete this mission.
As for the B-series reskinned TX Terminator in the warship, that thing can barely be called an autonomous robot, it's far from being an intelligent AI, let alone at the level of silicon-based life.
This is actually Zhang Xun's fault. If he hadn't held back all his units, resulting in none of them being particularly outstanding, Marcus wouldn't be in the position now.
Wang Ge patted Zhang Xun's helmet and asked, "Marcus has a human brain. Are you sure you don't want to make a fool of yourself by letting him control such a huge celestial body?"
This is no joke. Forcing the human brain to operate large equipment will only cause it to overheat due to overload.
A simple example is the 'cyber madman'.
The human brain, a carbon-based processor riddled with bugs, typically processes data at a speed of ten bits per second. However, the information transmitted through sensory organs such as the eyes and skin far exceeds the brain's processing capacity. This explains why humans have extremely limited ability to process information in complex environments.
Information belonging to one's own organs can be filtered and forgotten by the human brain, but information from silicon-based life forms has extremely low compatibility with the human brain, making filtering virtually impossible.
Zhang Xun looked at Marcus. He didn't want this old member to take the risk, but there was no one in the team more suitable than him.
"Zhao Wanyang, if we install a quantum processor as a secondary brain on Marcus, what are the chances that Marcus will be able to drive the Primordial Celestial Venerable?"
When Zhang Xun made the suggestion, Zhao Wanyang had already prepared a data model, but for the sake of rigor, she still read Marcus's current brain information.
"If we consider a length of 100,000 kilometers, the possibility of control is less than 60%. You have to understand that this is not our creation, and its own encryption information will reduce processing efficiency."
Zhang Xun hadn't expected the success rate to be so low. This wasn't like gambling on coin tosses, where the probability would eventually reach fifty percent if you kept tossing it indefinitely.
With less than a 60% chance, it's almost like betting on Russian roulette with a semi-automatic pistol—it's not about whether the next shot will miss, but whether it will misfire.
Zhao Wanyang pushed up her glasses and said, "Purely from a probability standpoint, I don't recommend letting Marcus go. If we use Tianwen, the success rate will be over 80%."
Everyone thought Zhao Wanyang's plan was feasible, after all, Tianwen's computing power far exceeded Marcus's, and in terms of life form, it was closer to the other.
"No, we absolutely cannot use Tianwen. Its underlying logic is Tony's. Because of my influence, Jarvis did not create Ultron."
However, the vulnerabilities of artificial code will be amplified infinitely during the advancement of silicon-based life forms. No one knows whether the four Warhammer gods have affected Tianwen. If something goes wrong...
What Zhang Xun didn't say was clear to everyone else. If the team members were the most familiar friends to each other, then Tianwen, who had been silently observing them, was familiar with their computers from the inside out.
If Tianwen, which possesses all the information and technology, were to lose control, bases on Mars and elsewhere would have to pay at least 90% of the price, and the Death Star would also be rendered useless.
At this moment, Yun Ruomin, who was disassembling the device in her hand, suddenly said, "If we install a Cybertronian processor on Marcus, and translate the data before it enters the quantum computer to reduce computing power loss, would the success rate be improved?"
After Zhao Wanyang added the Cybertronian variable, the success rate jumped from less than 60% to nearly 80%.
"The plan is highly feasible, but I need time to process the Cybertronian consciousness, after all, Megatron has a history of possessing bodies."
“Very good, let’s proceed with this plan. Zhao Wanyang’s resources will be prioritized for this plan.”
Just as Zhang Xun was about to make the decision, Marcus, who had been slacking off, suddenly objected.
"No, doesn't anyone want to ask my opinion? 100,000 kilometers! If I really get embedded in that, what will happen to my happy life in the future?"
Wang Ge patted Marcus on the shoulder and said, "It's okay. If you feel lonely, you can find a celestial body to play with. Maybe you can even leave an unsolved mystery for future generations."
"Get lost! If I actually succeed, you'll be the first one I experiment on."
Huang Hong, who was standing to the side, thought for a moment and said, "Are you going to use it as ammunition to launch it? Even if you two want to fight with bayonets, it will be a one-sided swinging in the air."
The Xiang sisters spat and said, "Pah, disgusting. Nothing good ever comes of you men together."
Isaac patted the food scraps off his hands and said, "You girls should be grateful! A while ago on Earth, I saw them trying to recreate the Tavern Riot one-to-one. If the city hadn't fallen into Zhang Xun's hands at that time, you would have been able to witness a Tavern coup in person."
Zhang Xun was well aware of the trio's power; he wished he hadn't been in the Gundam and set a bad example.
"Alright, everyone get back to work! Marcus, come with me. Don't worry, once the technology on the Knight's Sword is fully developed, your new body won't be that big."
Marcus, somewhat puzzled, asked Zhao Wanyang, "What do you mean? You're changing bodies again?"
As the two walked towards the quantum teleportation device, Zhao Wanyang asked in surprise, "No, you really want to use that body? The materials for 100,000 kilometers! Those were all pre-ordered by the fleet, and you just..."
As the two left, the technical staff followed them, since even just watching this level of modification surgery would be very beneficial.
"Tch, this is boring. Zhang Xun, I'm going to find Sun Hui. I need to keep an eye on that Qingtian Sheng you found, lest he fool my wife."
Zhang Xun expressed his understanding of Wang Ge's concerns, after all, the other party could transform.
As everyone left, when only Natal and Zhang Xun remained in the command room, Natal picked up Zhang Xun's head and asked in a sarcastic tone.
"My Captain, I heard you and Asuka are doing well inside?"
"Who said that? Didn't you see that she stretched your husband's nostrils so wide? I kindly used my divine power to help, but who knew that brat would actually hurt your husband? Look at the damage I did to him, his teeth are all loose."
Natal slowly pulled out a photo and asked, "Then, explain to me what's going on with this?"
The EVA unit already had a video camera, and Zhao Wanyang, who was too lazy to make large-scale changes to the insertion plug, directly connected it to the auxiliary computer. Although Unit-02's external communication was lost, the offline equipment was still working, and everything in the cockpit was recorded by the black box.
That photo was of Asuka forcibly kissing Zhang Xun.
"That wife of mine, listen to my excuses, I can only offer an explanation, but Asuka, that girl, she..."
Before Zhang Xun could explain, Natal pulled his head up and kissed him fiercely. Whether it was revenge or something else, Natal did not kiss him as usual, but instead roughly broke their lips.
"Remember this, if you dare to cheat again, I'll make you regret it."
Zhang Xun felt wronged! How could someone with only a brain like him possibly cheat on someone else? He doesn't even have the "tools" (sexual innuendo).
Zhang Xun, who was suffering in silence, saw Natal and burned the photos in his hand. He knew that she had definitely watched the video of Unit 2. As for why she did this to him, it was probably because she was angry that the other party had done something that neither of them had done.
Of course, it doesn't mean kissing, but rather that their lips were broken, because after the impact, Natal simply kissed Zhang Xun briefly before letting go.
"Tsk, well, is it really inevitable that this tooth of mine will fall out?"
Zhang Xun spat out a front tooth. This did not mean that the two women were physically stronger than Zhang Xun, but rather that the previous toxins had caused some muscle atrophy, with the gums being the most affected.
"By the way, Natal, what did I ask Asuka to do when I was in the cockpit? I used the remaining divine power to protect her. The impact was too strong, so I don't remember. When I woke up, she wouldn't tell me. Could you check the recording for me?"
Hearing this, Natal laughed and said, "Forgot? That's fine too, at least you two won't feel awkward when you meet. I've deleted the video, and that photo is the last piece of information, so don't even think about it."
