Time travel to become the guardian AI of a lost civilization

Chapter 232 Purifying the Core

All kinds of explosions occurred on the surface of the "central processing unit", and the vacuum of the cosmic environment could not prevent the explosion from spreading.

The huge alloy structure also screamed under the destruction. Even if you just looked at it, you could hear the harsh noise of metal breaking.

A large number of giant fragments were blown into outer space, but more of them fell into the stars under the action of gravity and became part of the fuel.

All the people observing here fell silent after seeing this scene.

From the perspective of space, it may be difficult to give too much emotion to this scene. After all, it is just a building.

But if you have a little empathy and a clear understanding of what happened here, it will be difficult to have other emotions besides heaviness.

Here is a "brain" of mechanical intelligence that has helped them so much, and it is being treated horribly.

And they can't do anything but watch.

"...How about the core planets of the 'Unexpected Enemy'? If the 'Guardian' can stop the process of the 'Unexpected Enemy' first, maybe there will be salvation..."

Those fleets stationed in each civilization's parent galaxy that had never moved disappeared, and when their signals were detected again, it was in the four core galaxies of the "accidental enemy".

As they thought before, now it's up to them.

"...So why not let us join together? Although our strength is limited, we should be able to hold back the 'unexpected enemy'."

In the end, a representative brought the communication results of the civilization behind him:

And the remaining half of the geometric fleet, as if guarding something, spread out, revealing an ordinary-looking battleship in the middle of the fleet.

"—But it destroys the stars, using a principle that we don't know. This is much more efficient than the 'colossus'. Not to mention whether the cosmic environment after the black hole is still suitable for life, just take the supernova explosion before it collapses into a black hole. , we are all unable to resist, and the life in the entire galaxy will die in an instant."

The outbreak lasted for a long time, but the results were known early.

The dilapidated "central processing unit" that maintained the operation of the "Guardian" was completely destroyed, not even a scum left.

The representative of the Tinder Alliance spoke, his voice was full of determination and anger as soon as he turned the mournful atmosphere in the venue.

The fog covering the galaxy is exposed to the eyes of the observatory with the direction of the signal. A "super artificial intelligence planet" far exceeding the size of an ordinary planet is the most eye-catching place here.

"We waste too much energy on other things. We have treasures in our hands, but it takes too much time to transform them into a driving force for progress. An amoeba can do better than us!"

While those "artificial intelligence planets" were about to be dismembered, the galactic civilizations also observed an unforgettable scene.

"My civilization leader has sent a message. No matter what the outcome of this time, we will resign from the position of 'council civilization'. We are all interstellar civilizations, and we are still fighting like a group of uncivilized indigenous people. The sacrifice of the 'Guardian' was wasted."

It is not that the galaxy has never experienced the destruction of a lost empire, but this time it is unprecedentedly heavy.

"Perhaps, the 'Guardian Fleet' assisted by the 'Guardian' exists to guard against such warships. After all, our species is very fragile, and even a slight change in the stars is enough to cause the migration of the entire civilization... "

When they come here again in the future, all they see is a black hole named "central processing unit" and traces of supernova explosions covering the entire galaxy.

Geometric battleships patrol here, and the red-glowed galaxy fortress also exudes a powerful aura.

Perhaps aware of the difference in progress between the two sides, the "Guardian" transferred the last part of the power known to all civilizations into the battlefield.

"...Has even this fleet been dispatched? Perhaps, this time is really the 'last'..."

But soon they will know why.

However, the miracle did not happen, and the "central processing unit" that has become a black hole represents the "death" of that mechanical intelligence.

A large number of stories related to "Guardian" were reprinted, and the whole picture of this crisis also emerged in front of the public.

These are not the "Guardian Fleet", but the earliest batch of "Final Defense Fleet" that were sent to the parent galaxies of various civilizations along with the "Guardian Fleet".

The "experimental leap engine" that can only be used once shows that this is destined to be a journey with no return.

The heavy atmosphere has never dissipated in the meeting place of the community, but this time it became even heavier with the explosion of the "central processing unit".

Under the injection of that strange light beam, the lifespan of the star is being consumed abnormally, and it will soon reach the threshold.

Half of them were missing, and when they reappeared, they had jumped to the core galaxy and fought with the "Guardian" fleet, which once again delayed the "Guardian" from blowing up those "artificial intelligence planets".

Powerful electromagnetic radiation and mass ejection can destroy almost all life in the galaxy, and after hundreds or even thousands of years, signs of supernova explosions can be detected here.

Unlike the material ejected outward, the material in the center of the star collapses inward under high temperature and pressure, forming a not-so-small black hole.

This is the last heart of "The Unexpected Enemy", a "control center" called "Purification Core".

"If we really pull the 'Guardian Fleet' into the battle, then the 'Accidental Enemy' will probably destroy the entire galaxy directly along with the stars like this, and civilization will really be cut off at that time..."

"Obviously, the 'Accidental Enemy' fought the 'Guardian' to the death with this wishful thinking, but the planets destroyed by the 'Guardian' did not have no effect on it, and its current computing power may not be as good as before. 'Guardian'."

The "Guardians" also suddenly accelerated their attack speed, and the fleet, which was almost a suicidal attack, began to be damaged on a large scale. The goal was to protect those warships that were dismembering the "artificial intelligence planet".

However, the reorganized warship is much larger than before. Although it still maintains a geometric shape, people who see this strange warship have a bad feeling in their hearts.

Someone became sad, and at the same time couldn't understand why the "Guardian" prevented them from joining the battle with the "Guardian Fleet" in their hands at this last moment.

As he said so, he exposed the contents of the screen.

At some point, they have become accustomed to having mechanical conversations with the "Guardian". They would rather see those contents than see a "dead silent" "Guardian".

With that said, the representative of the Tinder Alliance put on his coat and left the venue, and his last words still echoed here for a long time:

"Maybe this is the method that 'Unexpected Enemy' should have used to perform 'purification'. After all, it can destroy a galaxy at a time, which is too efficient..."

The stars, which should have at least more than 80 billion years of life, began to expand at an extraordinary rate, and the expansion of the stars could even be seen with the naked eye.

The words of another representative caused everyone in the field to fall into silence. Although they didn't want to believe it, even the "central processing unit" was destroyed, and the result was self-evident.

That was their civilized diplomats trying to communicate with the "Guardian". On the huge screen, there was a large amount of chaotic characters accumulated.

This seems to be why they are so long, so that they can be easily combined, and even the wrecks of shipmates can be used many times.

They feel that they should be sad, but there is no time for them to be sad now. The moment the "central processing unit" is destroyed, it means that they will face this crisis in a real sense.

I saw a beam of light that was very weak compared to the brightness of the star shooting into the star from the battleship. The light was so dim that it took a while for the observatory to detect the appearance of this beam.

Since this matter is irreversible, revenge for it is one of the few things they can do.

At this moment, the once cold dialogue and standard text of "Guardian" seemed extremely friendly.

It's like the computer suddenly crashed, and there is no response to any access. No matter how you call it, the display on the screen is "empty".

"Enough words, this is our last chance to end this crisis, even if there are corpses, I will pile them up to death!"

It can be seen from the name that these fleets exist as a "last resort", a defensive fleet that will fight a decisive battle when an "unexpected enemy" invades the core of civilization.

The sudden increase in the "Guardian Fleet" also brought a certain degree of change to the "Unexpected Enemy".

The kind of warship that can destroy stars really frightened them. They hadn't thought that the "accidental enemy" would hide such a trick, and secretly took out a big thing that could detonate stars in a very short time. .

The once chaotic characters at least still represent "alive", but this empty silence indicates the eternal departure of a certain civilization.

The ignited emotions ignited an upsurge of anger like a spark in a very short period of time.

"...So, what's going on with the 'Guardians'?"

"...I won't say much, I have already obtained public permission, you should see for yourself."

The light emitted by the star is also flickering, but the overall trend is getting brighter and brighter. It is obvious that there is a problem with the fusion reaction inside the star, and it is not a general problem.

"Apparently, 'Accidental Enemy' no longer treats every galactic planet as seriously as it used to... Maybe it feels that we are too entrenched and must use strong medicine?"

However, compared with this, the movement produced by stars is more violent.

"...the past is worthy of our memory and respect, but now we must focus on the present."

It was also at this time that this "ordinary" warship changed, and the body of the geometric body began to disband and reorganize, and spliced ​​with other geometric warships around it to form a new warship.

After the fire seeds had been ensured to be sent to the hidden place, the decision makers who shouldered the burden of civilization had only one thought in mind, and that was to kill the "unexpected enemy".

However, what the "Guardian" is facing is the well-prepared guardian force of the galaxy. Even destroying the "artificial intelligence planets" that are the core of the "accidental enemy" will take more time than destroying a giant structure.

This also shows one thing from the side, the reserves of the "Guardian" have reached their limit, this is the last fleet.

"We need the sacrifice of a civilization to save us. It's too disgusting. Why do we do nothing? Why do we always rely on others? Are the countless years before stepping into the stars all in vain?"

They have maintained unilateral communication with the "Guardian" since the decisive battle, and have been paying attention to the status of the "Guardian" all the time.

"..."

Obviously, the battle situation has developed to the final moment. In order to eliminate the "unexpected enemy" before the end of the mission, the "Guardian" even sent the fleet used to protect the fire of civilization to the front battlefield.

And so the star exploded.

It has nothing to do with survival, nothing to do with honor, just because of passion.

"...What kind of battleship is that? If you want to say it, it seems to be somewhat similar to the 'Colossus'. They are all super weapons that can directly destroy the planet, but..."

The star, which has swelled to its limit, is only a little bit away from devouring the giant "central processing unit" that surrounds it. However, the "accidental enemy" seems to be planning to use a more secure method to completely wipe out this "ancient enemy".

Infected by this enthusiasm, more and more people stood up and left here in a hurry.

"Now, it's our turn to face the danger of the 'Guardian'. The 'accidental enemy' has not stopped. After the destruction of the four 'artificial intelligence planets', their signal sources all point to another undiscovered The new galaxy, there is the true core of the 'unexpected enemy'!"

The figures in the picture are frantically operating the instrument, trying to get a response from the dim screen, praying for a "miracle" to happen just like the "guardian" god came to the world.

But it is such a fleet, at this moment, under the order of the "Guardian", to the final battlefield.

It advances the journey of billions of years of life in just a few hours, and turns all the parts that have not yet been experienced into the energy released to the outside world.

"We put all our eggs in one basket and wanted to fight to the death with the 'Guardian', and trade the space of the Civil Star Domain for time, but in fact, they have already thought of everything.

In the meeting place of the community, a civilized representative suddenly asked a question, and the expression seemed to have a glimmer of life, but there was no trace of hope in his tone.

The fleet assembled again, and the "Guardian Fleet", which lost its command effectiveness after the demise of the "Guardian", returned to the control of various civilizations.

They represent the last defense force of each civilization, and their destruction is closely related to each civilization.

When this representative conveyed the leader's order, he was angry in his heart. He felt that they were too weak and killed a "protector" from the bottom of his heart.

What it is facing is just a star giant structure without any defensive power. Although it is large, it is much more convenient to destroy. It even only needs to blow up some key points to unbalance the stable space state between the giant structure and the stars. The star's gravity shreds the giant.

It was also when the "central processing unit" was blown into a black hole, and the screen, which was filled with chaotic characters, fell into dead silence.

It may be that the goal has been achieved, or simply feel that it cannot be dragged on any longer, and the overwhelming fleet used by the "accidental enemy" to attack the "central processing unit" has separated.

No one answered him, because everyone knew that compared to the destruction efficiency of the two sides, the "accidental enemy" was much faster.

Time seems to be racing against the clock at this moment, the special geometric warship of "Unexpected Enemy" has also arrived above the "Central Processing Unit", its muzzle is facing the central star, and strange energy fluctuations are gathering.

Everything in the venue was known to the high-level officials of various civilizations, and the past conspiracy calculations and deliberations also dissipated in the blink of an eye at this time.

However, none of this can prevent the final moment from coming quickly.

A large amount of "garbage" jumped here, and at the same time mixed with sporadic "Guardian battleships".

Even if it is broken under the firepower of the "unexpected enemy", more and more "garbage" can't keep it from jumping here.

As they say, heaping corpses must heap it!
