Zongman: My five senses are connected with the proud daughter of the world

Tachibana Fufu's ether adaptability reached a very good 70, and surprisingly, the trigger exceeded 80.

There is no doubt that this is the ability brought about by the mutation of her eyes.

But the truly incredible thing is indeed——

"93..."

Looking at the report above, Ling's eyes widened as wide as chestnuts.

"It's actually this high!? I wasn't even 10 before!"

"Theoretically, it wouldn't be that high," the servitor in charge of the test said sternly. "If Miss Ling had also removed her lens, then according to calculations, your adaptability should be between 60 and 70. However, after the HDD system was optimized, your body functions began to be released to support the function of the lens in your eye. The lens in turn greatly increased your ether adaptability, bringing it to 93."

"But..." Changing the subject, the mechanical servant reminded Jiang Lianqiu, "Commander, I need to clarify that I've discovered that the crystal itself has a very low adaptability to ether. The core reason Miss Ling was almost unable to enter the void before was actually due to the poor tolerance of the eye lens to ether."

"A crystal with very low adaptability to ether can in turn enhance a person's adaptability?"

"Not only that, even though this crystal was once occupied by the HDD system, it also subtly gave Ms. Ling the power to resonate with the ether of the surrounding space."

"In other words, the crystal's current function is to allow the body of the person implanted to evolve in a direction that adapts to the ether."

Right.

Jiang Lianqiu lowered his eyelids.

He had previously guessed that Carlos of the Helios Agency might have been studying how to enable humans to safely adapt to and utilize the ether.

As the human body evolves in this direction, its own abilities will inevitably undergo some changes, just like the mysterious physical qualities displayed by the brother and sister.

While he was thinking, Jiang Lianqiu suddenly received an urgent communication from Feng Nuoyimiao——

commander!

major discovery!

After the crystal was removed from Zhe's body, his subordinates conducted routine material composition tests on it and discovered something...inexplicable.

"What's the matter?" Jiang Lianqiu's face turned serious.

Von Neumeow's words sounded full of uncertainty. This was the first time he had heard such a tone from the usually confident scientific officer.

This crystal contains an extremely ancient spectral signal, and the technology to preserve the spectrum... comes from us!

Jiang Lianqiu: “?”

The encoding method of the spectral signal is also the same as our usual scientific research record-keeping practice. After analysis, the content shows that this crystal was designed and manufactured by the then-Consciousness Node Center at an incalculable time ago. But…but…our historical records are complete. I have never heard of it, nor seen it in the historical archives, that we once had records of such a project! ! !

Jiang Lianqiu: “???”

and also……

"Again!?"

Spectral information tells us that the ultimate goal of the project is to explore authorization...

Jiang Lianqiu: “…”

He originally just wanted to satisfy his curiosity by trying to dig out some plot secrets that had not been revealed in the game before he traveled through time since he had come to the world of ZZZ.

As a result, he accidentally dug up a huge tomb with his shovel!? .

Chapter 186: Wherever You Go, Black Swan Explodes

Because the matter was too serious, Jiang Lianqiu pondered for a moment and then asked Ling and Ju Fufu to return to Yunkui Mountain first.

At the same time, he asked the two of them to take Zhe with them.

Just as Jiang Lianqiu had promised before, the removal of the eye implant lens did not have any impact on Zhe. His ether adaptability successfully recovered to between 60 and 70, and there were even signs that it would continue to rise in the future.

His actual combat capability remains a mystery, but his physical fitness, which becomes stronger when facing stronger opponents, finally erupted completely.

After returning to the front of Yunkui Mountain, Yixuan, who knew what had happened, tested the qualifications of Zhe and Ling, the brother and sister who sold movies, out of curiosity. At first sight, she was amazed at Ling's aptitude in magic and immediately wanted to take her as her disciple.

Even though we couldn't find the evil Jiang Lianqiu, it was still a great joy to find two little geniuses.

(Hehe, let Ling inherit Yunkui Mountain from now on. My lineage will finally have a successor!)

Ju Fufu was also very happy, but she cared more about the back mountain and Brother Jiang's affairs.

After careful consideration and a phone call to ask Jiang Lianqiu for his opinion, Yixuan blocked everyone around her and told him the partial truth that she knew.

On the other side, Ophiuchus Starport.

The crystal that was urgently sent back is undergoing a second detailed inspection.

The starport suddenly entered the highest state of alert, the servitors returned to their combat positions, and all security measures, including information shielding, were raised to the highest level. The entire Ophiuchus constellation was sealed off.

This series of abnormalities and Jiang Lianqiu's sudden return almost scared the girls who were attending the tea party hosted by Guanghui in Star Harbor.

Not long after, Kasumigaoka Utaha and her group hurried to the most comprehensive laboratory in the scientific research hub, where the core platform had already been built. Although it was still under expansion, it was already ready for initial use.

"...So, originally, you were just curious and wanted to see the secrets of that cavity and some mechanism, but you accidentally dug a huge grave?"

Kasumigaoka Utaha instantly thought of her grandfather who has passed away.

"Junior brother, your grave-digging skills are much better than my grandfather who digs graves everywhere."

Su Shang stared through the huge floor-to-ceiling observation window at the crystal on the experimental table opposite, which was surrounded by dozens of consciousness node robot servants led by Feng Neumao.

It looks only half the size of a little finger, and has an irregular yet angular polyhedron structure.

The girl noticed with her sharp eyes that there was a ray of something like solidified light inside the translucent crystal.

She happened to have some free time today. The last time she had some free time, she angrily gave up her plan to come to Star Harbor because of Jiang Lianqiu's joke in Kongdong, and instead went to have fun with Gui Naifen for a whole day. The little girl regretted it before it even reached nightfall.

So when he received Guanghui's invitation to the tea party that day, he rushed over in a hurry, but ended up being disappointed. He was also embarrassed to leave in the middle of the tea party and went to Yunkui Mountain because of the invitation. Unexpectedly, by chance, he met Xiao Qiuzi, whom he hadn't seen for many days.

After observing for a while, Su Chang ran over to Jiang Lianqiu and asked crisply, "Could it be that Xiao Qiuzi, your historical archives have been lost, so we don't know that you studied such a thing in the past?"

"I have considered this possibility, but Befa said that it is not theoretically possible."

These words made everyone turn their attention to Belfast.

"Due to currents of thought and social structure, every detail of the servitor society's operations can be meticulously recorded in the form of a log."

Belfast explained slowly.

"Including the mobilization of resources and personnel arrangements at any base, the level of detail recorded by human history is almost negligible compared to what we have recorded in the past and even now."

"Although the specific engineering process for developing this crystal is unclear, it is conceivable that the scale of this project was definitely not small."

"For a large-scale project like ours, which even keeps logs of the mining equipment's operations down to the specific day in any asteroid belt in any frontier galaxy, it's impossible to completely erase all information from the historical archives without leaving even a trace."

"While we will implement distributed storage in science and technology, we will also ensure that every base has a complete set of complete records for log backups of social operations. Therefore, even though only the Ophiuchus starport remains today, we can still clearly understand what happened in the past—down to every day and every location."

"Simply put, if records were erased or lost, then reality and records would definitely not match. The problem now is that the ledgers are correct, but reality is inconsistent."

Everyone was stunned by this explanation.

Eriri was even more bewildered. "Shouldn't science and technology be more important? Why don't you, Brother Qiu, keep a copy of this technology in every starport? Instead, why do you keep such complete historical archives? And even fill the universe with backups?"

This is no longer something that can be summarized by the word "complete". According to Belfast, the servitor's record of history, at least in terms of detail, has reached a level of paranoia that ordinary people cannot understand.

"It is said that this was the sole request made by the last organic leader of the previous generation of masters, the living exhibits, at the final moment when the dominance of civilization was completely stripped away by the mechanical servants."

Jiang Lianqiu had read historical archives after all, so he answered Ying Lili's question on the spot.

"As for the reason, the leader never made it clear."

"Perhaps, if we have a chance in the future, we could try asking the people at Liuguang Yiting?" Ji Zi, who had been silent until now, suggested, "These detailed records always remind me of the Rememberers of the Star Sea. Compared to various practical technologies, the Rememberers are also more interested in the stories of the past."

"There will be a chance." Jiang Lianqiu also had similar thoughts.

Even if he does nothing, when the story of Pinocchio happens, a certain jail goose who is always full of confidence before the incident, but becomes so confused after the incident that he can only run around like a monkey to ask for help will show up.

Speaking of which, with Black Swan's magical physique that makes explosions happen wherever it goes, it shouldn't be a problem if it coaxes people to its side... Five...

Chapter 187: Why Do You Know

The second detailed inspection was much slower than the first one at the base in the back mountain of Yunkui Mountain.

Von Neumann was almost analyzing the crystal down to every elementary particle, carefully examining it from beginning to end without missing any detail.

Then she became even more annoyed.

After the inspection and analysis was completed, Feng Nuoymiao swayed from side to side and walked to Jiang Lianqiu like a dying old man.

"Would you like to take a break and let someone else report? I can see that your fatigue is genuine this time."

Feng Nuoyimiao stared at Jiang Lianqiu with his hollow eyes, and when he opened his mouth, a sound of stuck and crashed came out: "No, no, no, no, no, your subordinates have no—"

She stood there without finishing her words, then slowly raised her hands and took off her head.

"I'm used to it, really. I'm not afraid." Eriri looked numbly at the red-haired scientist who once again saluted Louis XVI.

However, just when everyone thought that Feng Neumiao was going to clean up the redundant data as usual, she directly took out a new head from the tactical space, threw the old head in, and then installed the new head...

"Your behavior is getting more and more outrageous!" In the end, Eriri still broke down and took out her portable drawing board to hit her forehead with a bang.

"I call this efficient." Feng Neumiao, having returned to normal, clearly didn't think there was anything wrong with his actions. "This is an inspiration I got from talking to the Observer. Carry a few heads with you. If one burns out, you can throw it away and replace it immediately."

"That's right, we Sirens are like this." The observer smiled so hard that his teeth were exposed in the crowd.

A group of people immediately distanced themselves from the observer, their faces filled with disgust. Guanghui even sighed, "I suddenly regret inviting you to the tea party today. Stay away from my sister from now on and don't lead her astray."

"Ahem! Okay, let's get down to business. What new discoveries did you make this time?" Jiang Lianqiu coughed, then turned his head and looked through the observation window at the crystal that was still heavily sealed on the laboratory table.

"Yes, Commander, yes." Von Neumeow nodded. "In addition to confirming that the technology used to preserve this stagnant light originated entirely from us, I also discovered that the preserved light is surrounded by an information barrier, ensuring that the light inside is not subject to any external interference. You can think of it as a safe that protects core information."

"Beyond this information barrier lies a circle of structures similarly solidified in the form of information. This layer of solidified information is the true cause of the gradual mutations in the bodies of the siblings implanted with the crystal."

Having said that, Feng Neumiao very considerately paused for a moment to give everyone time to digest it.

"I can imagine light being solidified, but information as well?" Kasumigaoka Utaha felt a headache. Ever since she followed Jiang Lianqiu to the new world, she didn't know how many times she had heard theories that could overturn the edifice of human physics.

"Sure." Ji Zi chuckled and patted Kasumigaoka Utaha's thin shoulders. "Over here, the Flowing Light Memory Courtyard that pursues memories can condense memory information into memory crystals, or memory bubbles, and use this method to solidify and preserve the information."

"But whether it's a memory crystal or a memory bubble, they only serve to store information. Essentially, they're no different from a human hard drive," von Neumeow added. "But this circle of solidified information doesn't exist to store anything. It uses materialized information as raw material to form an astonishing spatial structure. It can convert all external energy into information, and after a series of complex processing, it's converted back into energy for output."

"Although I still don't understand the process and principles behind this, I do know its purpose. It's all designed to allow humans to undergo directed evolution under the influence of processed energy."

Jiang Lianqiu analyzed Feng Neumiao's conclusion and speculated, "In other words, in that lost period of history, we once carried out a super-engineering project with the goal of allowing life to evolve in the direction of hope?"

Is it really necessary to go through so much trouble?

Although gene-directed editing technology is useless to the robot servants, it does not mean that they have not mastered it.

"It's not just a simple evolution, Commander," Feng Nuoyi meowed softly. "Have you forgotten what I said? The void in the other world originates from the void outside this world?"

"The power of the void leaks into the world, existing in the form of voids and ether. This is a disaster for the humans there, but not a big problem for the world itself... This crystal can continuously improve humanity's ether adaptability—or, in other words, void adaptability."

"This isn't something that can be achieved with simple technology like gene-directed modification. It involves so many things that we used to think were extremely unscientific, or what we'd call mysterious now..."

"The information ultimately recorded by the spectrum within the crystal further demonstrates that even void adaptability isn't the ultimate goal. What we truly desired... was authorization, Commander."

Von Neumeow could hardly describe his current mood accurately.

In a lost past, they quietly accomplished something big, but it seems to have failed now - because if the out-of-control servitors had really completed this project, they would not have been reduced to the half-dead state they are in today by the Rectification Agreement.

But today, many years later, Jiang Lianqiu, who already has the ability to authorize, has directly become the master of the mechanical servant.

"Speaking of which, I suddenly have a question." Upon hearing this, Ji Zi frowned and asked Feng Nuoyimiao, "In your opinion, what exactly is Lian Qiu's authorization? I heard that because of this authorization, he directly became the owner of your 2.9. Obviously, even if you don't remember this project in the past, you should have understood or even studied the authorization itself."

Feng Nuoy meowed: "..."

Her expression was very strange.

There was a moment of confusion, followed by a look of disbelief, and finally a hint of fear.

A flash of thunder seemed to pass through Jiang Lianqiu's mind.

He vaguely grasped a huge contradiction that he had ignored intentionally or unintentionally until now.

Staring at Feng Neumiao, Jiang Lianqiu asked: "Why, back then in the starport, did you directly determine that I was a natural authorizer? Why is there no record of Ω-12 Hz in the technical archives at all, but you were able to directly know of its existence?"
