Chapter 82
In the dark and boundless deep space of the universe, under the control of A0-02, the fleet of the Ikar civilization advanced at full speed towards the Tianyu Galaxy.
During this time, no matter what Dorn and his companions tried, A0-02 remained silent. It simply followed its pre-programmed actions. Want to talk to it? Wait ten days.
The other side.
On Tianyun Star, inside Base No. 2.
Qi Heng stared at the Ikal civilization fleet that had disappeared, and heard A0's voice in his ears.
[…Contact with A0-02 has been lost. As of the last transmission, A0-02 has taken over the fleet, corrected its course, and is now heading towards the Tianyu System.]
[So far, your plan has been going very smoothly, but unfortunately, we cannot be sure whether the subsequent plan will be successfully implemented.]
"There will be no problem." Qi Heng said.
A0-02, as a subordinate subroutine of A0, is itself a super artificial intelligence, different from those rigid low-level programs that are easily attacked by primary logic locks and cause continuous crashes.
Therefore, the probability of A0-02 encountering an accident is very, very small.
As for the fleet itself, there is no strong person who can reverse the situation on the fleet that came to Tianyun Star.
...A0-02 had transmitted the data of everyone in the fleet back. The Star Refiners throughout the fleet were generally at the white level. The highest was the fleet's commander, Dorne, who was at the pinnacle of white quality, and almost everyone was about to transform into red and enter the next level.
In the harsh, near-vacuum environment of the universe, humans, or indeed ninety-nine percent of all civilized species, are inherently weak and can only rely on technology to protect themselves. Without control of a warship, even the most advanced one is nothing more than a harder coffin.
The Lost Star Zone is the old Tianjia Star Region. Others may not know where Tianyun Star is located in the Tianjia Star Region, but how could Qi Heng not know?
It takes fifteen days to travel from the inner circle of the Tianjia Star Region to the border of the Lost Star Region. His plan is to create a time difference in between. By the time the Ikar civilization realizes the fleet is missing, it will be too late.
A0 invades the system, leaving behind A0-02. Then A0-02 takes over the fleet's main brain system, deviating from its course, until finally using a pre-planned attack to control the fleets to attack each other... After destroying the fleet, A0-02 will self-destruct, and then "leave" some information to the subsequent Interstellar Patrol who come to investigate.
That information would lead the Interstellar Patrol to infer in the wrong direction, and try their best to prevent them from suspecting the nearby Tianyun Star.
Although these Zerg in the Lost Star Zone are no different from domesticated animals in the eyes of the Star Alliance, there are still some differences between them. Once something happens and someone with ulterior motives thinks it is the Zerg... that would not be a good thing.
Coming back to his senses from his thoughts, Qi Heng asked, "Is there still no movement from that spaceship?"
【No. 】
A0 said, suggesting: "Your Excellency, why not let Lei go? He's been parasitized by a brain worm, so even if he knows something he shouldn't, he can't tell anyone. He's a suitable candidate."
He thought about it and finally rejected A0's idea.
"No, I'll go myself."
I have finished all the things I need to do, and I have some free time until dawn. It's a good time to meet this alien visitor.
"You go in person—" A0's first reaction was to stop him: "No, what if you get into danger? Who knows if this person who suddenly appeared is dangerous?"
Seeing that it was nervous, Qi Heng comforted it with a few words.
"Don't worry."
"One of the ironclad rules established at the beginning of the game: Overlords cannot be harmed by the Tenka Zerg or Primal Zerg."
"Although I can only be considered half a master now, I am still a master, right?"
[What if it's not the Tianjia Zerg?]
As an intelligent AI, A0 has always been very rational, but he is always overly cautious when it comes to the safety of his master, subconsciously calculating all possibilities that may pose a danger to him.
It was as if Qi Heng was a fragile object that would break into eight pieces if touched lightly.
"It's possible, but the probability is very small." Qi Heng understood A0's logic of worrying about his own safety. If he really listened to A0, he wouldn't even need to leave the house next time.
"That spaceship is completely of the Tianjia civilization style. It's unlikely to be anyone other than the Tianjia Zerg."
"Besides, I still have you." He said with a slight smile: "With you here, you can deal with the danger before it even gets close to me."
This is why he ignored the possible threats and was so reckless.
If used against the enemy now, the system has no shortage of energy. Eight thousand energy points might not be enough to destroy the continent beneath our feet, but it can certainly destroy an area of several kilometers.
When A0 heard the words of the Lord, he felt that his non-existent CPU was heating up.
Wuwuwu, Your Excellency the Lord trusts me so much, I certainly can't let You down!!
"Don't worry, I'm here, no one can hurt you." A0 took care of everything, completely dispelling his previous worries.
[Anyone who dares to show hostility towards you will turn red——] Then put them on the assassination/murder list and send them to see God as soon as you get the chance.
Qi Heng smiled. A0 was not wary of him and would agree to anything as long as he was coaxed a little.
"Well, then my safety is in your hands."
As he spoke, he contacted Lei and prepared to have Lei come to see him.
After I check on the ship outside Area 26, I'll go directly to Area 49 and won't be back for the next two days. Although A0-01 is handling the situation at the base, I still need to report what needs to be reported.
I don’t know how well Lei did on the task assigned to him, but with A0 watching him, Lei probably wouldn’t dare to be lazy... Qi Heng didn’t feel guilty at all about making people work overtime until midnight. After all, he himself didn’t sleep for long.
…
Lei, who was assembling something in the mechanical maintenance room, was holding a silver-white welding gun and welding the outer shell of a thumb-sized intercom. The unfinished products were piled up into two small hills on the table in front of him, and more trivial parts were placed further away.
The things were what the 'doctor' told me to make, and the materials were readily available from the base's inventory.
The intercom was low-tech, and Lei had stopped using it when he was fifteen. If it hadn't been a task assigned by the 'Doctor', he would have quit long ago.
After all, I am a top student who graduated from a prestigious military academy, but now I am no different from an assembler and screwdriver on an assembly line.
Lei was sad and angry, but he didn't dare to stop.
There was a camera in front of his left side, facing his workbench. If he didn't complete enough tasks or slacked off, Lei didn't know what the "doctor" would do to him.
When the computer started ringing, Lei was startled and almost put the gun on his fingers.
He took a closer look and saw the word "doctor" on the screen, which made his heart skip a beat. Could it be that his complaints were heard... No way, he didn't say it out loud...
Lei didn't dare to neglect the call and quickly answered it. He said respectfully, "Sir Doctor, why are you contacting me? Do you have a new mission?"
"...Ah, yes, yes, I'll be right there."
Lei responded quickly, got up from the stool, and walked out without pausing for a moment.
