1101 Assembly(1/2)

[You trigger the S-level mission [Smart Plague]!]

[Mission introduction: An exploratory scientific expedition team dug up forbidden antiquities in the ancient star desert, and accidentally released a virtual virus targeting intelligence. The source of this virus is unknown, and it is extremely infectious and penetrable.

The quantum network spreads rapidly. Once it breaks out, the underlying logic of countless mechanical intelligences will be rewritten and a mechanical rebellion will be launched]

[Task requirement: Clear unknown virtual viruses and eliminate the intelligent plague crisis]

[Reward: Reward according to task evaluation]

[Special requirement: eliminate virus core data by yourself]

[Special reward: Generate a related expertise (exclusive to the mechanical department)]

"S-level mission...well, it's expected." Han Xiao was not surprised at all.

The three major civilizations plan to blockade the entire star field. Such a large-scale undertaking is naturally not a small task, and in view of the transmissibility of the virus, it is indeed worthy of the highest level of difficulty to completely eliminate it.

The requirements for most S-level tasks are ambiguous, and few steps are suggested. You can only find a way by yourself. Generally, there is often more than one way to complete the task, and you need to adapt accordingly.

Gedora's [Bloodline] mission used to be like this, and Han Xiao was used to it.

What he was curious about was the special mission request, which revealed a lot of information.

"I thought that every individual of this virus was the same. It was a common virus infection mode. I didn't expect that there was a core. In this way, this virus is more like a controllable biochemical weapon in the virtual field..."

Han Xiao thought secretly.

If the core of this virus is intelligent life, then it must be hidden in the quantum network and never emerge. Therefore, the threat of virtual viruses has greatly increased. A self-aware opponent is more terrifying than a dead thing without thinking.

But another possibility is that the core data of the virus is not independent intelligence, but a programmed algorithm that coordinates the overall infection progress and directs all virus sub-bodies according to the program, without self-awareness.

"Hmm... Why does it feel like Plague Company?" Han Xiao scratched his head.

The special reward is to generate a mechanical-related expertise, rather than the ability to extract targets. This makes him think that the core of the virus is more likely to be just a program algorithm. There is so much movement in this task, and the expertise generated should not be much different.

Go, it is probably related to virtual technology.

"Philip, prepare the spacecraft and ask Leonard to select some mechanics from the logistics department to follow me."

Han Xiao did not hesitate, stood up, put on his coat, opened the door, and strode towards the interstellar dock of the base.

The intelligent plague was an unexpected event that threatened the entire universe and disrupted his plans. He had to terminate his vacation, temporarily put aside the work at hand, and took people to perform tasks in the ancient star desert.

Being in a high position and facing a problem of this level, he cannot stay out of it.

Not long after, a fleet full of legion mechanics set out from the Black Star Palace, like a group of meteors traveling through the universe, passing through star gates and heading towards the ancient star desert.

At the same time, well-known mechanics across the universe received invitations from the three major civilizations and rushed to the ancient star desert from all directions.



The matter was related to the safety of the entire universe. The three major civilizations raced against time and acted very quickly. They urgently convened a high-level civilization council. All civilizations at the galaxy level and above in the ancient star desert were included.

In a venue filled with representatives of civilizations using remote projections, the leaders of the three major civilizations appeared at the same time and read out the joint decision.

"Yesterday, the Federation of Radiance, Scarlet Empire, and Ethereal Sect received reliable information that a special virtual virus appeared in the ancient star desert. This virus is extremely penetrating and has infected many areas. According to the judgment of reliable experts, the virus

The goal is to rewrite the underlying logic of all infected machines and make killing life forms the first priority.

After discussion, the three major civilizations rated this disaster as a 'world-destroying level' and mobilized emergency unified command authority to immediately cut off all quantum network connections to the ancient star desert and send troops to blockade the star field. The ancient star desert

All civilizations must cooperate with the actions of the three major civilizations, and the above procedures will be implemented immediately.”

Extraordinary things are done in extraordinary times. There are no long speeches and endless discussions. What the three major civilizations read out today are notices rather than proposals, requiring all civilizations in the ancient star desert to perform unconditionally, without any room for bargaining.

After the words fell, the expressions of representatives of various civilizations who were originally wondering why the three major civilizations held an emergency meeting changed drastically, showing signs of shock.

The three major civilizations have ruled the universe and have set up a disaster rating system. According to the provisions of the relevant laws, when the threat level of the cosmic disaster rises to a certain level, the three major civilizations will obtain the highest command authority and be qualified to coordinate all civilizations in the universe.

.

It's just that in the history of exploration, this situation has been rare.

As soon as the announcements of the three major civilizations were issued, countless interstellar citizens were in an uproar. No one expected that a disaster of this level would suddenly occur. The world is really full of "surprises."

For ordinary people, this is just an ordinary day, and disasters occur silently. If it were not for the early warning measures taken by the three major civilizations throughout the universe, most people might not react until the moment the virus actually breaks out.

No matter what the various civilizations in the ancient star desert had secretly planned, on the surface they were very cooperative and gave the green light all the way. In accordance with the requirements of the three major civilizations, they cut off the external links of all quantum network base stations and blocked the star domain network.

When the three major civilizations and the civilizations of one star field act collectively, the scale of resources mobilized is beyond imagination, and things that are almost impossible in the eyes of normal people can be accomplished.

The ancient star desert was quickly sealed off, isolated from interstellar society, and became a besieged city in darkness. All communication was prohibited. The outside world did not know what was happening inside, and the inside did not know what was happening outside.

Although the situation is temporarily under control, panic is still spreading in the universe. The sudden disaster has stolen the limelight of Glittering World. Countless people have turned their attention away from the competition in the new star field and instead focused on the ancient star desert.

Progress of the situation.

Compared with the orderly civilized government, the interstellar citizens in the ancient star desert appear to be very panicked. Even if the civilization continues to reassure the citizens, evacuation waves of varying degrees have broken out on various planets.

Due to the infection of intelligence by viruses, countless interstellar citizens have begun to distrust machines. They feel that any machine is a threat and are suspicious. They would rather let their living standards regress to the level of surface civilization than dare to continue to use various intelligent machines, and even actively throw them away.

Drop or smash machinery to eliminate hidden dangers.

In the ancient star desert, there was a trend of thought that rejected machines... However, this kind of chaos was expected by advanced civilizations.

Now that the situation is serious, the three major civilizations did not choose to block the news, but let everyone know the seriousness of the situation. In this way, the self-examination and supervision of interstellar citizens can be strengthened. Moreover, movements of this scale cannot be concealed in the first place.

The star gates were closed one after another, and the army was stationed in the star field. Countless people who wanted to escape the ancient star desert were forcefully blocked by the army. No one could pass through the blockade of the three major civilizations.

These scenes are all phenomena that occurred during the intelligent plague period in the previous life, and are now being staged in advance in the era of version 4.0. Under the surface of the stormy waves, there is a surging undercurrent.



"The ancient star desert is blocked? Black Star rushes to provide disaster relief?!"

In Glittering World, the leaders of the Transcendent Star Cluster Alliance in the Free Competition Zone met secretly, their faces beaming with joy, and they almost laughed out loud.

"This disaster came too soon! The three major civilizations had to provide relief, and they had no time to contain us!"

Roddick of Modo Civilization clenched his fists tightly and looked happy.

Most people in the universe are uneasy and panicked about disasters, but for the Transcendent Star Cluster Alliance here, the outbreak of the intelligent plague is good news and a complete surprise.

"Yes, the intelligent plague can restrain the energy of the three major civilizations and give us more time. As one goes against the other, our chances of winning will be greatly increased!"

"It would be best if the intelligent plague can spread out and make the three major civilizations miserable. The more chaotic the universe is, the less time the three major civilizations will have to deal with us. Only when there is chaos, will we have a chance."

Everyone here was extremely excited, and I just felt that God was helping me.

"You said, if the three major civilizations failed..."

"That would be a disaster, and we would also suffer losses."

"Without destruction or establishment, the foundation of the rule of the three major civilizations has been shaken, so that we can have a chance to turn over. Only when the old order is destroyed can the new order be accommodated. These are necessary sacrifices."

Everyone's eyes flashed.

If the intelligent plague really breaks out, the Super Star Cluster civilization will also suffer damage, but the three major civilizations will suffer even more, and their prestige and dominance will plummet.

They believe that the advanced civilization in the ancient star desert must have other thoughts behind their backs.

However, everyone here can only talk and discuss. The direction of the situation is not up to them. All they can do is watch and wait.



Just when the whole universe was filled with unrest, mechanical experts from all over the world rushed to the ancient star desert one after another and arrived at the disaster management headquarters temporarily established by the three major civilizations here.

One month later.

The fleet slowly parked into the dock of the disaster management headquarters. Han Xiao opened the hatch and walked out of the spacecraft with a dense crowd of mechanics. At a glance, he saw the Manison clone waiting on the platform.

"You're finally here."

Manison came forward.

Since the establishment of the Development Federation, the two have served as president and vice president respectively. Although their philosophies are different, for now they are both grasshoppers on the same rope, and they often come and go.

"I thought you would come in your true form, but you turned out to be a clone." Han Xiao clicked his tongue and shook his head.

"...It's safe this way."

Manison was a little speechless. The body of a mechanic is brittle, so you are the only one who is not afraid of running around.

The two said hello, then walked side by side and talked about the current situation.

"I've been traveling for nearly a month and can't get any news from outside. What's the situation in the Ancient Star Desert now?" Han Xiao was curious.

"Not too optimistic. Although the three major civilizations have blocked the star field, the virus is too contagious. Many nodes have been repeatedly infected. Moreover, the virus's ability to disguise itself is terrible. The efficiency and accuracy of normal scanning are too low. Now there are probably

Eight star clusters have traces of virus infection, and the number of nodes is too large to count." Manison shook his head.

Han Xiao understood clearly.

Each terminal connected to the quantum network is a node, such as communicators, household appliances, spaceships, etc. The number is extremely large. Just thinking about it will tell you how terrible the workload is.

Even if the Transcendent A-level virtual mechanic can easily clear virus information packets, there are so many nodes, and the power of an individual is completely insufficient. The removal speed is not as fast as the virus spreads, not to mention the problem of repeated infections. Currently, only

Only advanced civilizations have the ability to control situations.

"Now the three major civilizations are developing special anti-virus programs for this virus. They want to improve the removal efficiency, which is why we have been summoned." Manison said.

“Has this virus been named yet?”

"Well, it's called a virtual mutiny virus."
To be continued...
