Chapter 429: Broken, but not completely broken
of course.
In terms of results and processes.
Compared with the old regime of Blue Star, which is inferior to some dogs, the Venerable Civilization is still far behind.
Not to mention technological level.
The moral standards of the two sides are also very different.
to be frank.
The way they handled it was already very appropriate.
At least it has maintained stability for tens of millions, and probably hundreds of millions of years.
——This 'Perfect Planet Shaping Device' is completely incomparable to the 'Life Ark' in terms of technical level, craftsmanship, materials and other data.
It doesn't look like a new generation product of the Venerable fellow.
It is more like it was created in the 'young period' of their civilization, that is, before it reached its peak.
At the very least, it is definitely not from the same period as the 'Ark of Life'.
In terms of generation difference, it is much farther than the latter.
There is indeed a certain degree of immature design...
——For example, in the cabins inside, the materials are very average and the equipment is not very good.
The overall level of those maintenance robots...compared to their later super-civilized status, to be honest, is quite low.
It really feels like a trial product.
Don’t dare to make big purchases;
Cost control is reflected everywhere.
However, the way people deal with it is still...
It can't be called remarkable.
Let’s just say it’s all benevolence and justice.
Having reached this point, it is worthy of the audience.
Although they just threw this thing into the virtual world very irresponsibly, they still maintained safety for who knows how many billions of years.
...It was probably from here that they got into the bad habit of throwing things into the virtual world whenever they had nothing to do.
Similar to the 'Life Ark' plan.
But it does work.
After all, it is much more effective than the method on Blue Star.
By the way, when this thing was thrown in, Blue Star was still in the era of primitive creatures!
Maybe the Devonian period hasn't even arrived yet.
In terms of pure shelf life...
That is indeed beyond reproach.
What happened next...
What a bizarre accident:
——Who would have thought that this thing, which has been drifting in the virtual realm for hundreds of millions of years, could possibly fall back into the material universe?
and...
——Who would have thought that something like this would break down in the process of falling back from the virtual realm to the material universe?
"These guys..."
Su Wen smiled bitterly.
In fact, he knew it very well.
This really cannot be blamed on the venerable fellow countryman.
People have already thought of very good solutions.
It is the strange characteristic of the virtual realm itself that is completely elusive and cannot be limited by any rules;
Coupled with this invisible barrier between the 'virtual realm and the material universe'.
The coincidence of the two interacting with each other, like a chemical reaction, became the root cause of all this.
——The 'waste' that should have been drifting endlessly in the virtual realm forever fell back into the material universe for some unknown reason that cannot be verified;
——In this process, it first fell into the subspace, and in this fierce process that can be called a meteorite hitting the earth, it destroyed some of the few external passive defense systems;
Further on...
It was the accidental incident of "non-burnable garbage arriving on Blue Star" tens of thousands of years ago.
"It fell into the subspace first, and the samples taken from the shell also showed obvious signs of subspace erosion,"
"That ghost place... you just need to understand it as a hell on earth where there are no living creatures and are constantly irradiated by various high-energy rays. Any man-made object that passes there will basically shed a layer of skin." , and the traces left by these rays of radiation are also very easy to confirm - when a subspace storm sweeps across, there is even a precedent of being able to blast zero-element armor into sieves;"
Guanghui explained,
"But when the control system of this facility executed the 'emergency escape procedure' and ascended from the subspace, the jump they made ended up on the Blue Star..."
"Theoretically, it should be abandoned, but its underlying protocol contains a full set of operating procedures for its original work when it was designed..."
"So, after it landed on the living planet Blue Star, it was automatically activated?"
Su Wen scratched his head in confusion.
That being said, it's not surprising.
The blue star tens of thousands of years ago...
Although it’s tens of thousands specifically, it’s hard to be sure.
After all, this ship - well, it is not a ship, but a functional facility, more similar to a space station - the control system of the space station itself has been severely damaged.
The log itself is a bit messed up.
The date and timing aspects are even more confusing.
Therefore, it is not easy to determine the specific time when it accidentally broke away from the virtual realm, fell into the subspace, and then accidentally fell into the blue star during the process of ascending from the subspace.
But, sure.
At that time, Blue Star was already a very prosperous planet with life.
The ancestors of mankind have long spread their branches and leaves in every corner of the world.
——That was probably the time when Neanderthals chased mammoths with spears!
Even based on the standard of 'whether it has a highly intelligent life race' among the endless sea of stars, this is the most standard life planet.
Although our ancestors did not have as advanced technology and culture as modern people.
But from a purely biological perspective, modern humans really haven’t evolved any more parts than they did...
——If you don’t take into account the hyperplasia caused by obesity, cancer, tuberculosis and other messy diseases.
In short, the Blue Star tens of thousands of years ago will definitely meet the 'target group' range defined by the Venerable fellow when he designed this thing.
And then if this thing accidentally activates by chance...
It doesn't seem to be something difficult to understand.
"The self-executing program was started, but it didn't go that smoothly."
Glory shook his head.
After going through such a long series of various twists and turns...how can it be smooth?
Take the situation of the entire device.
Its degree of damage is not as bad as that of the 'cle1 maintenance machine'.
But to be honest, it is already considered a mid-break and close to a big break.
...If we measure it numerically, it's still a little more than a quarter and less than a third of the health bar at most.
Even though its shell is basically intact, there is only one hole from the outside.
But the appearance of the hole itself means that all its passive defense systems, including shields and charged armor, are down.
Including the set of 'Void Realm Shielding Stand' which is much more primitive than the one carried on the 'Selection' Life Ark, but still comes from the same source.
All reimbursed.
That’s why when it fell into the subspace, it directly made a hole:
For these advanced and super-civilized creations, although the protective ability of the shell is still very strong, it is already the last layer.
For example, the star base in the solar system where everyone is now.
If a gap can be made in the base's external structure, it means that the previous layers of defense facilities have been breached.
Not to mention, all the external passive defense systems were destroyed, which was second to none.
The series inside it is even more serious.
It is also more deadly.
"Just like those soldiers who were lying on the trench floor to take cover, only to be hit by heavy artillery within a few meters, and then shocked to death,"
"The explosion did not directly hurt him, and there appeared to be no obvious external injuries or missing arms or legs,"
"But the entire internal organs have been shattered, and the person's body is bleeding and limp."
Guanghui casually made a somewhat strange metaphor.
When Su Wen heard this, he immediately had a specific impression.
"In spite of this, which can be said to have few internal structures that are still intact, and a control system that is no longer very effective - just like a brain that is already dying and suffering a severe concussion - it continues to go on as usual. The consequences of implementing the 'Planet Transformation Plan' are like this now,"
"No renovation operation can be successfully completed according to the plan left in the previous design,"
"It's all nonsense, everything is wrong."
——In the normal process, 'mild psychic field recovery' must be started before all preparations;
However, more than half of the 'Star Core Field Shaping Device' responsible for this part of the function was destroyed.
The charging section is completely scrapped;
The FM control system was also completely scrapped;
So much so that in the process of charging and leaking like a primary school math problem, it had to be delayed for tens of thousands of years to complete the charging.
——By the way, the diffuse black smoke is the subsequent product of the failure of the charging section to flow to the energy storage circuit and the decay reaction.
And due to the lag of the control system, it failed to properly control the process of 'spiritual field recovery'...
It's like a tattered car that falls apart when running and can no longer be turned by turning the steering wheel.
Suddenly someone stepped on the floor.
Directly hit one hundred and three.
This directly led to the complete loss of control of the entire process.
"So...this is the cause of the Blue Star Catastrophe?"
Su Wen said delicately.
"... To be precise, this is just one of them."
Guanghui continued to read the reports coming back from the front line.
Just like his own man, he had an unreadable expression on his face.
