Ye Ling pointed at the abnormal signal jumping on the screen, her pretty face tense, and her original excitement was instantly replaced by worry.
"Duan Yu, look at this..." Her voice trembled slightly, like a taut string that could break at any time.
The laughter and joy in the laboratory suddenly stopped, the air seemed to freeze, and a tense atmosphere quickly spread.
Trundle's smile froze on his face, like a robot whose pause button had been suddenly pressed.
He rubbed his hands nervously, his eyes switching back and forth between Ye Ling and the screen.
Duan Yu walked quickly to Ye Ling's side, staring at the flashing red signal on the screen with deep eyes, his brows furrowed.
"What's going on?" he asked in a deep voice, with a hint of solemnity in his tone.
"I don't know either..." Ye Ling's tone was filled with a strong sense of powerlessness. "It was fine just now, but suddenly these abnormal signals appeared. I suspect something went wrong during the fusion process."
She knew very well that if this problem was not solved, all her previous efforts would be wasted. It felt like building a house with great effort, only to suddenly discover that the foundation was unstable and could collapse at any time. This pressure weighed heavily on her heart, making it almost impossible for her to breathe.
"Don't worry, we'll solve it together." Duan Yu patted Ye Ling's shoulder gently, giving her silent encouragement.
Ye Ling took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down.
She began to carefully investigate the source of the abnormal signal. Lines of code flashed before her eyes, like paths leading to the truth.
However, each search was like walking through a maze, encountering one dead end after another.
Obstacles came one after another, as if fate was deliberately working against her, preventing her from finding the answer.
"What's going on? Why can't I find it?" Ye Ling scratched her hair irritably, feeling like she was going crazy.
The equipment around her hummed, as if silently mocking her incompetence. Despair grew in her heart, entwining her heart like a vine.
"Could it be..." Duan Yu suddenly said, pointing at a slight fluctuation on the screen, "This place..."
Ye Ling looked in the direction of Duan Yu's finger. A faint red ripple on the screen was indeed a little unusual, like a lurking poisonous snake, waiting for an opportunity to strike.
She was startled. Could this really be the problem?
She quickly focused her attention and began to analyze the frequency and intensity of this subtle fluctuation.
"Hiss——" She took a breath and her face turned pale in an instant.
This fluctuation is not just a simple signal interference, it is actually devouring the energy of the mecha's core!
It's like a computer infected with a virus. Not only does it freeze, but it also starts to devour data on the hard drive.
If left unchecked, the collapse of the mecha core is a matter of time, and then she will really "explode on the spot"!
She felt like she was thrown into cold sea water, surrounded by darkness, and a feeling of helplessness instantly overwhelmed her.
This is not just a problem with the mecha, it's like "Thanos snapping his fingers", all previous efforts have been wiped out, who can withstand this?
"No, I can't just sit there and wait for death!" Ye Ling gritted her teeth, and the idea of giving up was instantly thrown out of her mind.
She is the woman who wants to become the Mecha King, how can she fall here?
She began to frantically look through the materials, looking for a solution.
However, the speed at which she looked up the information could not keep up with the speed at which the abnormal signal was absorbed. The red fluctuations on the screen became more and more frequent, as if mocking her: "See, you are just a newbie, you can't handle it!"
"Ye Ling, how about we change our thinking?" Trundle suggested cautiously. He felt that Ye Ling was about to "explode on the spot."
Ye Ling didn't say anything. She closed her eyes and tried to calm herself down.
She remembered the genes of the alien creatures during the fusion. Could this be the problem?
She opened her eyes suddenly and a bold idea emerged in her mind.
She worked quickly and adjusted the analysis direction to the genes of alien creatures.
"Gosh, Ye Ling, your idea is too wild, isn't it?" Trundle was so shocked that his jaw almost dropped. "You can even think of this?"
Ye Ling ignored Trundle's shock, her attention completely focused on the screen.
As the analysis deepened, more and more clues surfaced. She felt like she had found a "gold mine", and her previous despair was swept away.
"Found it!" she shouted in surprise, her voice full of disbelief.
The red fluctuations on the screen began to weaken, as if suppressed by something.
"It seems to be... an unknown form of genetic expression." Ye Ling murmured to herself, her eyes fixed on the screen, excitement flashing in her eyes.
"Could this be..." Duan Yu looked at the changing waveform on the screen, with a hint of doubt in his tone.
Ye Ling successfully found the source of the abnormal signal, which was a tiny deviation when the alien gene was fused with the mecha.
She quickly adjusted the deviation, and the red fluctuations on the screen gradually weakened and eventually disappeared completely.
Excitement suddenly burst out in her heart, she seemed to see the dawn, and all her fatigue and anxiety were swept away.
The atmosphere in the laboratory instantly became lively, as if the entire space was ignited by her success.
"Found it! Really found it!" Ye Ling shouted excitedly, her voice full of incredible surprise.
She stood up, her eyes gleaming with victory, and the surrounding equipment seemed to sense her joy, and the buzzing sound became even more cheerful.
When Duan Yu saw Ye Ling solved the problem, a rare smile appeared on his lips.
He walked quickly to Ye Ling and hugged her tightly, and the warm power was transmitted to her body through his arms.
Ye Ling felt Duan Yu's warmth, and a warm current surged in her heart, and her eyes couldn't help but become moist.
"You are so amazing, Ye Ling." Duan Yu's voice was low and gentle, like the warm sun in winter, gently caressing her heart.
Ye Ling closed her eyes, feeling this rare warmth.
She was determined to continue improving the mecha and live up to Duan Yu's support and trust.
The moment the two embraced each other, an indescribable warmth and harmony filled the laboratory.
However, when Ye Ling was about to test the mecha's new capabilities, she suddenly noticed a weak and abnormal fluctuation from the mecha's power system.
Her heart tightened and she immediately realized that a new crisis was about to come.
"Duan Yu, the power system..." There was a hint of nervousness in Ye Ling's voice. She turned around quickly and looked at the screen with a firm gaze, ready to face the next challenge.
