CHAPTER 776: CHAPTER 343: PLANETARY TERRAFORMING

"Almost, I know a bit about machinery." Lin Xian said directly.

After the two corpses appeared just now, Lin Xian had already scanned the brain-machine conversion device on the corpses. The device was highly integrated, but Lin Xian had previously devoured and scanned the kind of large survival pods and conversion devices from the Zero Element Center. In comparison, this new brain-machine conversion device was a bit simpler, and with his manufacturing proficiency, creating such a conversion device was quite handy.

For Mochizuki Masashi, the goal was the conscious memory implanted on it, but the trouble lay here too. Once damaged, no effective information could be obtained. However, Lin Xian could directly control this conversion device. Even if the replicant researcher was smashed, as long as the brain remained, Lin Xian could ensure the conscious memory on it wouldn’t be destroyed. That’s why when Mochizuki Masashi mentioned this issue before, he didn’t take it too seriously.

Qian Suxun looked at the fungal brain machine converter on the table with a fixed gaze, then couldn’t help but let out a bitter laugh.

"Ha, it took us a week to complete the microelectrode array and FPGA chip replication of this thing, along with a bunch of troublesome nano-scale neural probes, and we still haven’t finished analyzing the fungal barrier material detection. You got it done in 5 minutes?"

Seeing this scene, Mochizuki Masashi looked at Lin Xian with full interest, seemingly becoming more and more intrigued by him.

"Wow, a week. You guys are pretty impressive."

KIKI said quite surprised, her words not meant as sarcasm, because she knew how troublesome it was to deal with such matters under extreme conditions. Removing Lin Xian as a bug factor, facing a complex and unfamiliar brain-machine device, replicating the microelectrode array and FPGA chip required very professional equipment and large research institutes, not to mention reverse engineering unknown metal materials.

"Now, let’s talk about the second question." At this moment, Lin Xian asked Mochizuki Masashi: "If the goal is achieved, how is your Silent City planning to leave?"

In Lin Xian’s view, the biggest trouble still came from the Star Abyss and Abnormal Bodies. If the Silent City was targeted by a Star Abyss Beast, he couldn’t think of any way to solve this ultimate problem.

To kill the Star Abyss Dominator?

I’m afraid that, given the current situation, even with the combined power of humanity, it would be impossible to do so, let alone a group of survivors barely managing to stay in the safe zone...

"Good question!"

Mochizuki Masashi answered directly: "This is indeed quite tricky. My original plan was to use the power of Special Disaster Plants. Eh~, this thing has great allure to Abnormal Bodies, especially those lord-level and above, but the comprehensive calculation of the escape success rate only increased by 2%-3%. However, I now have a new plan, which can give your Joint Train fleet, oh right, including those people with the surname Hu, more than a 70% chance to escape the Star Abyss."

"What plan?"

Mochizuki Masashi looked towards Lin Xian, smiling slightly: "Let the Silent City ascend, attracting the Star Abyss Dominator. There is an ancient saying, ’lure the tiger away from the mountain’, doesn’t that perfectly solve the problem?"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone’s expression changed, even Qian Suxun was dumbfounded, looking at Mochizuki Masashi with a puzzled gaze.

Lin Xian heard this, and couldn’t help but frown.

"I don’t understand. Weren’t you just saying that the reason for being trapped here was due to your main city, and now you want to abandon it?"

Just now talking about driving human civilization towards Far Star, and now the solution is to use the Silent City to distract the monsters and leave?

Isn’t this contradictory?

At this time, KIKI, Chen Sixuan, and others were also full of confusion, completely unable to figure out Mochizuki Masashi’s train of thought.

And Mochizuki Masashi seemed to have anticipated everyone’s reaction. He walked leisurely up to Lin Xian, squatted down again to look at Lin Xian, and said with interest,

"Lin, your superpower potential is huge, be bold, as long as you succeed in getting out, we can completely..."

"Rebuild a Silent City."

Hearing this, KIKI’s eyes immediately widened, taking a breath of cold air, and Lin Xian looked at Mochizuki Masashi with a hesitant gaze. This guy’s mouth had a smile, his tone incredibly serious, leaving him a bit hard to read.

The whole place was silent. Just when everyone hadn’t reacted, Mochizuki Masashi looked at Lin Xian’s hesitant gaze and turned his words around, smiling and saying,

"Just a joke, don’t take it to heart, but, you can imagine, your train doesn’t want to fly into the sky or traverse the great ocean tracks? Even at the Pole, eventually, you’ll still need to solve the problem of the Heavenly Veil, won’t you? With your Mechanical superpower, creating a massive Floating City to shelter billions would surely be rewarding."

Lin Xian smiled slightly without speaking. He naturally saw that the other party’s words, seemingly a joke, were actually a probe. How could the other party really use the Silent City to escape for him?

But what Mochizuki Masashi just said, to say it didn’t shock him would be impossible. All his previous planning and thinking were based on the foundation of the Infinity, then developing and upgrading through his Mechanical superpower, without such grand designs.

And when this former world’s top genius, the City Lord of Silent City, spoke to him with such prospects, Lin Xian was undoubtedly shaken to his core, but he knew well that with his current superpower level, rebuilding an Infinity was extremely difficult, let alone a Floating City.

"OK." After finishing, Mochizuki Masashi stood up, leisurely saying: "The actual plan is to use one of the four detached Floating Cities of Silent City to ascend, injecting excess tritium causing the reaction rate to grow exponentially, resulting in tritium proliferation effects, surpassing magnetic confinement limits leading to overload and loss of control, balabala~ this way we have a large hydrogen bomb. Though it might lead to increased instability of the Star Abyss No.5 and the Nest organisms’ Abnormal Body’s increased adaptability to nuclear energy conversion, but... whatever... we will gain crucial escape opportunities and time, fulfilling our purpose."
