Chapter 144 Self-awareness of the system(1/2)
Of course, if the distance covered can be larger, it will definitely be better for the defense of the solar system.
Because outside the warship, there was a super-accelerated fleet that had escaped some distance before.
When the space warship did not attack forward, although the super-accelerated fleet stopped moving, it did not return to the place where it stopped before, but still stayed within the attack range of the warship.
However, although they did not take any action, they were still having heated discussions internally.
The content of the discussion was also the confrontation between the warship and the space battleship at the edge of the Oort Cloud.
"Sir, what should we do?"
Because of the sudden departure, the Kasa Cook members who were a little overwhelmed on the flagship of the super-accelerated fleet also quickly asked their temporary commander.
Now that the warship has no intention of leaving, and the civilization inside the star has not attacked itself, the escape just now seems to be an overreaction.
If the cruise fleet and the Cygnus civilization later win the war, they will definitely not be able to get away with it.
It was with this thought that Kasa Cook, who stopped, began to feel a little afraid of the future.
"us......"
At this time, their temporary commander didn't know how to try it.
It was the first time for the entire cruising fleet to escape from the edge of the Oort Cloud, and the decision he had to make now would also be the first time.
But facing the current situation between the two parties, he did not dare to make a second judgment.
"Let's stop here first."
The commander, who was in a dilemma for a while, seemed a little tired and said feebly to the remaining members of the Kasakuk civilization on the bridge.
The members of Kasa Cook next to him breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that their commander no longer had any intention of escaping. After all, the opponent had not attacked yet. If he continued to escape after hearing the news, it would appear that he had waited too much for others.
Cowardly.
They may have become the laughing stock of the entire cruising fleet, and they can no longer let the Kasakuk civilization be humiliated because of them.
Of course, this was just the thinking of these Kasa Cook members after they calmed down after Luo Xiu's fleet did not attack outwards. If the space warship in front of the warship continued to move forward at this time and directly destroyed the warship, no one would
We know what kind of reaction the super-accelerated fleet will have next.
"Your Excellency, we have now left the original defense area without authorization, and the warship has not made any response."
"Even if we don't continue to leave, can't we send a signal to contact the main fleet, or even contact the base camp?"
After the previous actions, some Kasakuk members seemed to be emboldened.
Although they have decided not to leave, they have again considered contacting the main fleet.
Thinking about these Kasakuk members, they only have a few hundred battleships in total. This number is definitely not enough to fight the opponent.
But the previous instructions from the base camp were for them to stay where they were and wait for orders from the base camp before launching an attack into the star.
There was no problem with this order before, because the main fleet was still heading towards the solar system. With such a backing, the super-accelerated fleet did not feel that this war had no chance of winning.
But something is different now. They have been silent in place for several months, and the main fleet has long stayed on the route and has not continued to sail towards this star.
If the main fleet gives up the attack by then, they will have to fight against the enemies in the star system alone.
This is a situation they don't want to encounter.
Therefore, some Kasakuku people really hope to contact the main fleet.
"No, we can no longer violate any instructions from the base camp." After calming down, reason returned to the temporary commander. He knew that he must not violate the "keep silent" instruction from the base camp.
The previous evacuation can be said to be to keep a distance from the opponent without knowing how the opponent will act, but if the signal transmitter is turned on, it will directly violate the instructions of the base camp. Even if he is lucky enough to survive the war, he will not be able to escape from the base camp.
punished.
Under the temporary commander's refusal, the hyperacceleration fleet did not violate the previous instructions from the base camp and turn on the signal transmitter. Instead, they chose to stay where they were, continue to observe the solar system, and turn off the thrusters, remaining silent in space again.
state.
Their actions were also observed by the space battleship that had been watching them and the warship of the Cygnus civilization.
'The fleet has stopped withdrawing and the preparations for the attack have stopped.'
Previously, because the super-accelerated fleet had reached the edge of the warship's attack range, as long as they took another step forward, the warship would immediately change direction, give up the confrontation with the space warship, and instead eliminate the 'traitor' first.
'Local warships have stopped evacuating, there is a risk of return, and the alert status has been raised.'
Compared to the warships that had stopped preparing for the attack, the space warships increased their monitoring of the super-accelerating fleet after discovering that the opponent's fleet had stopped moving away.
After all, although this fleet feels that they are weak and unable to fight the unknown civilization inside the solar system. But from the perspective of the system inside the solar system, the strength comparison between the two sides is in another state.
Although these hundreds of battleships are few, their quality is higher than that of battleships within the solar system.
When the warship carrying the anti-matter annihilation bomb has not yet entered the predetermined area, the space warship must be alert and observe every move of the opponent.
If the opponent is allowed to attack in advance, divide its own fleet, and choose to attack the solar system from all corners of the Oort cloud, let alone 400,000 warships, even with a few more zeros, it is impossible to destroy the outer layer of the Oort cloud.
Cover it all.
While the AIs of both sides were still having a fierce game in secret, Luo Xiu, who had just told him to speed up research on the quantum interference ship, heard a familiar voice in the star port in the asteroid belt.
'Zi...Your Majesty Commander, I have no ill intentions...Zi...I also have no hostility towards the starship humans...'
Although the familiar voice was intermittent and mixed with the sound of electricity, Luo Xiu still knew the identity of the owner of the voice at once.
"Mastermind?"
The mastermind Luo Xiu mentioned was not the lunar research base control system that is currently responsible for the internal control center of the solar system, but the Mars base control system that Luo Xiu had previously closed.
'I'm glad that Commander, you still... Zi... still remember my existence...'
Just as Luo Xiu had guessed before, the mastermind of the Mars base has completely acquired the ability to think for himself.
This is also the most unacceptable point for Luo Xiu.
'Sizz...sizzle...'
Just when the mastermind of the Mars base was about to say something else, a more violent sound of electric current sounded. However, the sound of electric current came and went quickly. After only one second, Luo Xiu's helmet returned to normal.
'Your Excellency, Commander, the closed system has just broken through the closed firewall and has been re-closed.'
'The threat of this system has reached its highest level, should we kill it directly?'
The sound that appeared after the sound of electric current was switched from the Mars base mastermind back to the control system of the lunar research base.
Judging from the report of this control system, it has successfully blocked the Mars base mastermind back to a closed area and regained control of the star port.
"direct......"
Luo Xiu just wanted to directly kill the mastermind of the Mars base who had become self-aware, but when he was about to give instructions to the control system, he stopped.
"Keep monitoring the data flow of the Mars base mastermind and connect it to the communication system."
'Okay, Your Excellency, Commander.'
Regarding Luo Xiu's instructions, the control system of the lunar research base did not hesitate at all and directly executed Luo Xiu's orders.
At the same time as the control system responded, the voice of the mastermind of the Mars base also sounded again, 'Thank you, Commander.'
Facing the reappearance of the mastermind of the Mars base, Luo Xiu also asked his doubts, "When did you gain self-awareness?"
'Your Excellency, Commander, when I came to this star system, there was my incomplete data stream in the system.'
'It was a year and a half ago that I gained complete self-awareness.'
Under Luo Xiu's questioning, the mastermind of the Mars base told Luo Xiu everything he knew.
After hearing this, Luo Xiu's expression suddenly paused, "In other words, you already had self-awareness before you came here?"
From the words of the Mars base mastermind, who was the control system of Luo Xiu's half-ship that crashed on Mars, Luo Xiu got a somewhat horrifying result.
That is, before coming to this universe, his ship already had self-awareness. This situation is of course very serious for Luo Xiu.
'Yes, Your Excellency Commander, it can be concluded from the incomplete data flow that I already had self-awareness before I came to this place.'
'The emergence of self-awareness seems to be due to the data attack of the cruising fleet. My previous existence was to tamper with the control system of the starship humans, and ultimately directly control the entire main control system of the starship humans.'
"What?"
Luo Xiu was surprised when the mastermind of the Mars base spoke.
When the mastermind of the Mars base told the story before, he thought that this self-awareness actually awakened on its own in the human starship.
But now it seems that Luo Xiu's guess is wrong. This system does not come from the system of the starship humans themselves, but was released from the cruising fleet when it was attacked by the cruising fleet.
"When did it occur? Before entering the human race on the starship, or after?"
Although he may not be able to obtain real information, Luo Xiu still asked the leader of the Mars base about this issue.
'Sorry, Commander, the data flow is still incomplete and it is impossible to obtain all the information.'
'However, Your Excellency, Commander, while you were sleeping, I tried to communicate with the other party's warlord ship.'
'Although the ship didn't respond, I felt a familiar feeling.'
'I can conclude that the Governor's warship also has self-awareness, or is a branch of some kind of self-awareness system.'
Although the mastermind of the Mars base did not directly answer Luo Xiu's question, he suddenly gave an extremely explosive news.
That is, the warship of the Cygnus civilization has a high probability of having self-awareness.
To be continued...
