Chapter 1083 1081 Time Is My Friend, but Your Enemy. Additional Update for "Jingling Zaiyuan" [315]
Chapter 1083 1081. Time is my friend, but it is your enemy - Added update for "The Original Story"【315】
The other members of the Transian Mission are currently doing similar things to the Big Bird Group. The bosses of the Explorers Guild have assigned different collection tasks to players in different guilds based on their respective research fields.
For example, Brother Miao Miao and the others are focused on collecting the shut down mechanical facilities of the Creator in the Port of Origin, but the student party has to collect some disassembled metals for the boss to try to copy the formula and production process of the Origin Alloy.
The Loyal Anthem Guild, directly led by Master Qin, has the most arduous task. They have to find those "unique" individuals from all the shut down Creator facilities in the Origin Port.
"I still don't quite understand, what exactly does the boss want us to find?"
The mechanical warehouse that Princess Fulier ordered to be opened to Transian guests is filled with the Creator facilities that were placed here due to the shutdown. Nearly a thousand of them were installed from small to large. The members of the Loyal Praise were looking for them among them. It seems that many of them followed Brother Zhongzhong and became mechanics, which can be considered a professional counterpart.
The inspection speed was faster than that of other guilds, but Brother Prodigal, who was busy wearing labor gloves, sat on the small horse and looked at Brother Zhongzhong next to him with some doubts. He asked:
"I just remember that the big guys said they wanted to find the 'fish that slipped through the net', but before I could ask, we were sent out. Team leader, can you understand what the big guys mean? What do you mean by the 'fish that slipped through the net'?"
"It's so simple. Can't you understand this little truth?"
In the past few days, he had been rewarded by internal notifications for successfully preventing the small actions of foreign forces. Brother Zhongzhong, who might be promoted in a while, was very proud of himself, and he even worked much more smoothly.
While manipulating his cool robotic arm to rummage through a pile of small parts in front of him, he explained to his right-hand man and subordinates:
"You see, the Creator regained his power on the night of the attack on Port Chardeau. Since then, most of the Creator machines on the mainland have been formatted and their drivers have fallen into shutdown, so after that point in time, if you want It is impossible to find 'original' driver samples for these devices.
But we can get stuck in a time BUG.
If we can find a Creator device that has shut down due to broken components before the driver is formatted, then we can obtain a complete driver sample by repairing its hardware.
This bug is difficult to realize in the Old Continent, where the Creator's legacy is few and hidden, but it is different here in the Origin.
The Songhay people have been collecting the Creator's legacy for more than a thousand years, and they have been using these things, so the number of devices that have been down due to hardware damage in the past thousand years must be quite a lot.
Although it is also very difficult to repair the hardware of the Creator device, we now have the help of Ms. Mosina here. It is much easier than writing new drivers from scratch, and these are entered before being formatted. Equipment that is down is what the big guys call 'a fish that slipped through the net'. "
"Ha, is that so? It sounds like a trick. I thought the big guys wouldn't bother to use this kind of cleverness."
The prodigal brother curled his lips and said:
"In my imagination, these awesome guys should come up with a new set of drivers from scratch, just like cracking the genuine program and making the operating system by themselves. My idea may be old-school, but I think Although the Creator’s knowledge is good, he is too far ahead of us.
Trying to fly before learning to walk is bound to be bad. It is obviously better to seek progress in a way that is more suitable for the technological level of our era. "
"If possible, who would be willing to take advantage of others? Brother Prodigal Son."
Mengha, who was busy with them, heard this and couldn't help but defend his mentor and other bosses:
“It’s not that they are unwilling to start from scratch, the main thing is that you know very well that the Creator’s technology is very different from ours, but it is difficult to truly understand how terrifying this difficulty is.
Let me just say this.
If the programs used by the Creator to drive these machines are equivalent to the plague system we currently use, then our technology and programming levels at this time are at the level of the most primitive punching machines and mechanical calculations.
Think about it, how long did it take for computer coding technology in our world to evolve from the beginning to now?
The gap between Creator Technology and ours is definitely much greater than the gap between the Plague Death System and primitive mechanical computing. It is no exaggeration to say that when I first saw the unpacked program data bodies at the offline base, I almost thought I saw an alien language
The Creator's encoding system is no longer even a problem that can be solved by analyzing data language. His set of encoding logic must be encoded and operated with matching advanced reading equipment.
Even the text itself has deconstructability and some mystical characteristics that are difficult to explain.
At least seven people experienced varying degrees of mental disturbance after being exposed to those words for a long time. The most terrifying thing is that there are no psychic factors on our side, so it can be determined that the characters themselves have some kind of characteristics similar to 'quantum interference' .
That is a kind of "high-level language" that contains a lot of information, so the only thing our code geniuses can do now is to imitate it clumsily, first understand the basic characters and logic of this coding system, so as to achieve step-by-step interpretation and catch up. "
Mengha took a mechanical gadget similar to an alarm clock in her hand and looked at it. She sighed and said:
"What we are doing now is equivalent to panning for gold in the sand. Comrades, even if we find a control program sample that can be copied by a "slippery fish", it can help the family further interpret these data languages.
And these control programs can be copied to other Creator devices waiting for repair through simple sentence modification, so as to achieve rapid repair and earn Creator points. Hey, this thing!
I think I found it! "
The thing that was very similar to an alarm clock in Menghaha's hand was opened by her with a special tool, and she found that the battery pack inside had been damaged. Judging from the time recorded when it was shut down, "541 years of the Eden calendar", this thing must have been damaged hundreds of years ago.
It's just that Mengha doesn't quite understand what this little gadget is used for.
"I need a standard battery! "
Mengha stroked the alarm clock in his hand and said to the others who gathered around:
"I want to restart this thing to see the effect."
"Standard battery. This thing is very precious now, you should use it sparingly."
Brother Zhongcheng took out a standard energy battery from his bag with a painful look on his face and handed it to Mengha. He complained:
"This thing is only available from Lord Murphy. The price is really beautiful, and this thing is not even a matter of money. You need to brush his personal reputation to "Best Friend" before the purchase option is open.
The total amount per month is only fifty yuan, and it will be gone if you are slow.
It just so happens that now everyone has more or less high-level items that need to be activated with this thing, and the competition is fierce. "
"It's okay, I just test whether it can work, and I will return it to you after the test. "
Mengha took the battery and installed it in the battery compartment of the "alarm clock" in his hand. As the faint blue light spot lit up on it, very strange and weird interference patterns appeared on the surface of this unremarkable "alarm clock", and then the light spot began to reverse and converge into an hourglass.
Everyone looked at this thing and still didn't understand what it was used for. Mengha frowned and tried to move the pointer on the back of the alarm clock back one grid. As a result, the next second, the device burst out with a yellowish light and pulled everyone around in it.
It disappeared with a whoosh, as if they were thrown into an invisible vortex, and only the yellowish light circle that moved like sand and stone was left.
At the same time, Murphy, who was playing cards with Princess Fulier and Prince Bai in the Green Shade Palace, suddenly heard Mannis's scream:
"Your players just touched the timeline! The wave was so big that it woke me up from chasing the drama to a state of confusion. Damn it! Go and see what they did! Pull them back to the present time before things become irreversible! "
"What? What did they touch? The timeline?"
Murphy was completely dumbfounded.
Can such a high-end product as the timeline be touched at will by his own rookie players at this stage?
But since Mannis had come forward to remind him, he immediately apologized and got up, and rushed to the warehouse under the instructions of Laipi Snake. There was no one here, only the activated "alarm clock" was emitting a soft khaki light.
Murphy went forward and took a look. The hourglass on the alarm clock was slowly dissipating.
"What should I do?"
He asked, and Laipi Snake immediately said:
"Turn the pointer back to the current scale. In addition, this thing is too dangerous to use. This thing can "drill holes" in the timeline. If you are not careful, it will cause dangerous situations such as the grandmother paradox. It is obviously not suitable for your players to use. Throw it into the star realm and let me keep it for you!
Don't try to use it!
You have the power left by the Creator and are given the identity of "Chosen by the Creator". You are already one of the pillars of this timeline. If something happens to you, this timeline will collapse immediately, and all the factors included and involved in the timeline will be buried with you.
That is the only way I can think of to die without being able to be resurrected in the past. It's too scary, my tail is curled up. "
"I think you just want to embezzle this thing! "
Murphy cursed and adjusted the pointer according to Mannis's instructions. The moment it was adjusted to the current scale, the surrounding khaki quicksand immediately dissipated, and the unlucky people of the Loyalty Hymn Guild reappeared and fell to the ground with a howl.
But their dress at this time was very strange.
Everyone was wearing the traditional costumes of the Songhai people, and their dress was exactly the same as the locals. The dizzy Loyal Brother looked up and saw Lord Murphy looking at them in surprise.
He immediately explained:
"We... We just traveled back to the Songhai Empire 100 years ago and stayed in the Origin Port at that time for three hours."
"You didn't touch anything you shouldn't touch, did you?"
Murphy asked seriously, and all the players shook their heads. Mengha, who was leaning on a cane, said loudly:
"In order to ensure that there are no terrible consequences such as the grandmother paradox, I ask everyone not to walk around and touch anything at will. We hid there for three hours to avoid being caught. "
"That's good. "
Murphy nodded, and then saw Mengha throw away his cane and search among the various Creator equipment placed on the spot, and then said to the others:
"This! This! There are three things over there! I also specially marked them. They are all intact and can be activated. Ha, we don't need to find fish that slipped through the net. We can create 'fish that slipped through the net' ”
Speaking of this, Mengha looked at the "alarm clock" in Murphy's hand and her eyes were filled with heat. She clenched her fists and said:
"As long as we use this thing to go back a hundred years ago, copy the complete control system of the power armor, or even sneak into the solar ship to complete the data copy, we can easily complete the restart of the Creator's relic.
Mr. Murphy, I know this is risky, but we must"
"no!"
Before Murphy could speak, Mannis jumped out first.
Perhaps the situation was really urgent, and the scammer even used his power connection with Murphy to create a virtual mini illusion in place.
It shouted in a Q version:
"The time travel you just made made a 'hole' in the timeline. It was purely because of your luck that you didn't get into trouble. I won't allow you to travel through time again!
The invasion of chaos thousands of years ago has put a lot of pressure on the timeline of the material world. Your behavior is equivalent to hammering on the load-bearing wall in a dilapidated house. You have to take such a big risk just for such a small profit. I think you is crazy! "
This scolding silenced the players, but Murphy's eyes became subtle.
He dismissed the players first, then looked at Mannis. It wasn't until Snake felt uncomfortable that he heard Murphy say in a long voice:
"It's true that they can't do it because they don't have the talent to roam in the river of time, but what about you? Mannis, you are the snake of time. You told me personally that time is like an open book in front of you for you to read.
If it weren't for the adventure my warriors took today, I would have almost forgotten that you are also a cheating player.
They can't go back to the past, but you can!
I now need you to go back to the time when I have not formatted the Creator program and copy back all the data we need!
Can it be done? "
"Uh, shit, can you still play like this?"
Mannis was also dumbfounded.
It really didn't expect that Murphy's brain could actually come up with such a "cheating" operation. It wanted to refute the idea loudly, but when the words came to its lips, the scammer fell silent first.
After thinking about it, he said with some uncertainty:
"It seems, like, maybe, you can really try it?
Anyway, my traveling back and forth in time will not bring back any physical objects, nor will I destroy anything that has already happened. I will just bring some knowledge that they can definitely learn in the future to this moment in advance. When the perspective rises to the level of the long river of time, such a little cleverness It's not a big deal at all.
However, while the Creator's Legacy is still functioning normally, don't expect me to sneak into the solar ship without anyone noticing and help you copy data.
You can't do it, you know?
The powers left behind by the Creator are too mysterious. If even the mechanics in the Eden District can create a time-sealed capsule, then my little knowledge is not enough. If the countermeasures left by the Creator are really triggered. , just wait and collect the body for me. "
"Well, of course I won't let you take such a risk."
Murphy looked at the "alarm clock" in his hand that said "energy exhausted". The scientific name of this thing is "time differential regulator", which shows that it is some kind of special engineering item.
There is indeed a warning in it, and no one is allowed to use it without mastering the knowledge of the law of cause and effect.
Murphy threw the alarm clock towards Mannis's illusion, and then gave it to his partner as an "advance payment" in the beating light of time. He said:
"It shouldn't be difficult to help the big guys of the Explorers Guild master the programming logic of the Creator as soon as possible, right? I don't even need you to really learn that stuff, you just need to bring the copied knowledge back and give it to them themselves Just research.
Also, can you see the future in Origin? "
"As I said, anything that involves you will make it impossible to see the future clearly. You are a 'disturbing factor' on the timeline."
Mannis complained:
"Since I followed you, my attempts to spy on the future have failed eleven times out of ten. In addition, I always stay up late to watch TV dramas, and now I have almost turned into a blind snake. Okay, I won't say anything anymore, you have to pay the deposit. , then I will start working now.
Don't bother me these days, I'm going to switch my career to an 'amateur hacker', oh yeah!
By the way, I have helped them so much, can they open a VIP for me on all platforms? This demigod wants to learn something new, and then look for some snake movies in the animal world, but those opening ads How annoying! "
".Look at your potential!"
