Chapter 2159 2.157 Nano Core
When everything calmed down, only a wall remained, bleeding profusely. The flesh and blood of the alien dragons that had just covered the wall like ivy were instantly devoured. The acidic blood, capable of corroding interstellar spaceships, couldn't even get a foothold due to the "self-lubricating" properties of the high-density surface of the magnetic block, let alone corrode it.
"Are these all the alien dragons?" The pterosaur queen and her dragon archer guards hovered in mid-air after firing their last magnetic arrow, looking down at the apocalyptic eruption of the volcano.
While they were battling the alien dragon, the eruptions of the volcanoes on the three islands never ceased, and had unknowingly reached VEI-6, soon approaching VEI-7.
The colossal object lodged in their throat showed signs of loosening. Taking advantage of the brief opening that lifted the object, more and more lava mixed with volcanic ash erupted from the ground, transforming into a rain of lava that covered the three islands. As far as the eye could see, it was a sea of fire. The once-growth tropical rainforest and the human ruins hidden within it were all swallowed up by the raging flames. No trace of their existence could be found.
"I don't know." Captain Nine-Tailed was still thinking about the alien queen who hadn't shown up yet.
“Mishima is completely ruined now.” Steadying herself in the hot wind, the Pteranodon Queen sighed, “It seems that Mishima’s memories are also fading away.”
“Hmm.” Captain Nine-Tails understood that this was not an illusion, but a real event: “Our world (the Broken City) has no anniversaries.”
"Well said, Captain." The swarm of general-purpose drones had already flown to the Pteranodon Queen's side, reloading her with a new quiver. The Pteranodons were second-tier mutants injected with refined ancient dragon essence, capable of carrying container safe houses into the sky on their own. Combined with their exclusive kinetic armor and magnetic attachment devices, their 3-star combat strength was perfectly normal.
3星战力的量化,不妨从100张1星同位卡来衡量。并不是100个数量上的简单堆迭,而是10两个量级的差距。
In other words, star rating represents a vast gap that cannot be bridged by sheer numbers. For instance, given enough ammunition and time, the Pteranodon Queen and her dragon archer guards could wipe out all the alien dragons. This is a difference in combat power that cannot be easily compensated for by simply piling on numbers.
The lowest level survivor camp, Central District.
After completing its self-test, the high-frequency flashing light of Angela's GS Elf Mechanical Girl finally went out.
She was certain that there were no problems with her underlying code.
"Ah... young warrior, this is indeed not my fault."
Upon hearing this, Elsa, the warrior in yellow, breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good."
"But who stole my identity key and sent you the encrypted message?" Having eliminated her own suspicions, GS Elf Mecha Angela immediately turned to the new mystery: "This person must be on our internal network. Because the firewall, which has just been integrated and expanded, is allocating a large amount of resources to external defense, while being relatively lenient internally. Especially during the integration of the Ironblood AI system of the three small pyramids..."
"So, who is he?" Elsa, the warrior in yellow, hurriedly asked.
"I don't know yet." Angela, the GS Elf Mechanical Girl, is only the administrator of the lower-level survivor camp. She doesn't have management authority over the Great Pyramid, let alone the three smaller pyramids: "I need to apply for higher-level management authority."
As they were talking, Angela's holographic eyes suddenly started flashing at a high frequency for no apparent reason.
"Hmm?" This immediately alerted Angela, the GS elf mechanical girl: "Someone is trying to open my remote communication port."
"Grab him." Elsa, the warrior in yellow, knew that this must be the one behind it all.
"This level of attack is utterly childish." GS Elf Mech Angela even deliberately let him in, then counter-hacking into its system core. She completely intercepted the encrypted command code.
After being deciphered, the detailed code segment was fully displayed by GS Elf Mech Angela.
"This is... an overload command from the energy core."
"What will happen once the command is executed?" Elsa, the warrior in yellow, asked anxiously.
“My energy core will melt down.” Angela, the GS elf mechanical girl, felt something was off. “That’s all.” “Won’t there be a nuclear explosion?” Elsa, the yellow-clad warrior, asked again.
"No, it won't." Angela, the GS elf mechanical girl, shook her head decisively: "The protective mechanism will trigger a collapse effect, only releasing photons outwards. The energy released will be swallowed by a small artificial black hole..."
"Could it be you?!" Elsa, the warrior in yellow, exclaimed in shock. "Someone wants to... kill you to silence you?"
"Huh?" After inputting the overload command into the simulation program, GS Elf Mech Angela made another unexpected discovery: "My (energy) core data has been tampered with. It seems that your guess is not without evidence."
"W-what?" Elsa, the warrior in yellow, was completely bewildered. Things had spiraled out of her wildest imagination. Yet, she knew clearly that this mysterious mastermind might be closely related to the disappearance of her companions and her own amnesia.
However, should we continue the investigation?
Time passed by, second by second.
GS Elf Mech Angela made her final decision: "Elsa."
"I'm here." Elsa, the warrior in yellow, suddenly came to her senses.
"I need to cut off the core power supply and switch to the backup battery. Then I will remove the power core. The whole process will take about 3 minutes."
"What do you need me to do?" Elsa, the warrior in yellow, immediately realized that this was the safest course of action.
"Hand the core over to Captain Nine-Tailed Fox." GS Elf Mecha Angela said firmly, "To determine whether there is anything wrong with this core, which is suspected of being tampered with."
“Okay, Angela.” As the person directly involved in the entire incident, Elsa, the yellow-clad warrior, had no choice but to take responsibility. Just as she had previously questioned, if this seemingly tampered energy core were remotely detonated into a small nuclear bomb, it would be a devastating blow to the camp. The choice of having GS Elf Mech Angela dismantle it was undoubtedly the optimal solution.
At this crucial moment, the female warriors, led by Captain Nine-Tailed, are engaged in a bloody battle against the surging tide of alien dragons. And hidden within the constantly erupting supervolcano are prehistoric behemoths—a confirmed ultimate threat far surpassing the alien dragons. From Angela's perspective, as the GS elf mechanical girl who has been assigned the role of a novice guide and manages the entire survivor camp, it's wise for her not to disturb them at this critical juncture and to handle the problems herself.
This was absolutely not done on my own initiative.
Because GS Elf Mech Angela has already weighed the risks and rewards. At least, that's what she thinks.
After cutting off the core power supply and switching to the backup battery, GS Elf Mech Angela immediately opened her chest cavity and reached out to remove her own core.
However, just as the core was being twisted, a sinister laugh suddenly rang out.
"Hum..."
The silvery liquid that kept gushing out from the interface instantly submerged the core.
"This is..." Angela's GS Elf Mechanical Girl's eyes flashed rapidly again: "Nano Core!"
"That's right, my body." A sinister laugh, sometimes near, sometimes far, drifted into the mind of Angela, the GS elf mechanical girl.
Or perhaps, it was already in her mind all along.
"Who exactly are you?" As the nanometals that had submerged the energy core continued to spread within her chest cavity, infecting more and more components, Angela, the GS Elf Mechanical Girl, was also sinking into oblivion at an accelerated pace.
"Hehehe... Guess?"
