Volume 8: The Fourth Impact Chapter 80 The hero responded to fate and said, Fortunately, I have a backup plan!
"Mason! Mason, did you see that? The Star Castle and the mountain range that supports it fell from the sky!"
Selina's shocked scream woke up Mason who was sitting on the Mobius chair. Not only Catwoman, but everyone who saw the Star Castle falling from the sky was subconsciously contacting Mason at this moment.
This unexpected situation was something no one had expected. After all, no one would take into consideration the possibility of a demi-plane suddenly falling from the sky when making plans.
But the occurrence of this low-probability event has really made everyone confused.
Those who reacted slowly, like the Swordsman and the Hunter, were still in a daze, while those who reacted quickly, like the Green Goblin and the Master, were already roaring and activating the Speed Force Matrix in each world to delay time.
As for Mason...
The captain should have been extremely angry, but at this moment he found himself unusually calm. He even had time to look down at the time as he watched the raging waves below submerge the Star Castle.
There are still ten minutes and 27 seconds left before entering the second stage of world fusion. If the cosmic tuning fork cannot be restarted before then, all worlds that have begun to merge will surely die.
One has to sigh at the strength of Mephisto's ability to block the opponent's attack. The old devil blocked the opponent's attack one minute before the cosmic tuning fork was officially activated to completely block everyone.
He was sure that Mason would not be able to rearrange everything in the remaining time. It was like a buzzer-beating shot before the finish line. It was all about limits and heartbeats!
"I knew you bastards would take action, but I couldn't guess when you would stab me. So, is this your last resort?"
Mason, sensing his opponent's sinister intentions, rubbed his aching forehead and said:
"You've been forced to use your lair to hit people. It seems that you have really run out of tricks. Apart from showing up in person to crush me to death, this is the most direct way you can think of.
Alas, I despair at your poor imagination.
Mobius! Relocate the Royal Palace of Attilan and send me to the Cosmic Tuning Fork. "
"Repositioning!"
The mechanical chair hummed. During this interval, Mason activated his authority and shouted to all frequency bands in the chaotic communication system:
"Quiet! Stop making noise! I'm at the crash site and will immediately enter Attilan City to repair the cosmic tuning fork. All usable speed force matrices will be reversed immediately to extend the time to enter the second stage of fusion to at least 30 minutes.
The Isu Aurora devices in each world are activated and the receiving ends are opened to prepare to receive cosmic frequencies.
Everyone else should do what they should do! I will hold up the sky if it collapses, and you will be fine before I am crushed to death! "
After saying that, Mason decisively cut off all external communications.
In this situation, it is useless to say anything. The only way to boost morale and push everything forward is to take action.
"Buzz"
The space teleportation of the Mobius chair was activated, accurately sending Mason to the city of Attilan that had been sealed at the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean.
The old devil's "throw of faith" was really tricky. He stuck the city of Attilan in the center of a continental shelf formed by the Star Castle and the surrounding mountains, like a square lid pressing the alien city into the seabed.
The demiplane where Star Castle is located is formed by the fragments of Ciri's shattered world. Its total area is equivalent to one-third of Oceania. It can only be regarded as a giant island, but its weight is still difficult to estimate.
In addition, when the Star Castle was built, various magical forces were laid around its mountain to reinforce the space. Those supernatural forces were now activated by Mephisto to act as a seal, making it impossible for the city of Attilan to teleport itself out of the seabed in a short period of time.
The good news is that despite such a heavy blow, this sturdy city has remained largely intact, except for some marginal buildings that were razed to the ground.
This is thanks to the fact that the Kree Empire in prehistoric times used extremely advanced technology to create this technological city for them when creating the Inhumans.
Tens of thousands of years ago, the Cree contractor did not cut corners and paid attention to construction quality, which saved the lives of the people in the city.
The bad news is that the city is completely isolated from the outside world because it is pressed under the sea by an entire mountain range, and all the super-large reactors set up on the wasteland to power the cosmic tuning fork are useless.
The worse news is...
"A corner of the tuning fork was smashed! It should be the cosmic frequency diffractor matrix! Damn it."
When Mason appeared in a dim laboratory inside the palace, the charlatan was repairing the circuit while the others were busy erecting the cosmic tuning fork that had been knocked over.
Dr. Otto, with a pale face, shouted while holding a very sophisticated piece of machinery in his hand. Others looked around and saw that the entire chaotic laboratory was full of flying fragments of a module of the cosmic tuning fork.
Everyone here knows the importance of this golden leaning tower to today's events.
The sky in their hearts was about to fall.
"No noise! No sound! Black Bolt, Old Wolf, Father Banner, and Brother A are watching. Anyone who speaks will be beaten!"
Mason jumped down from the Mobius chair with an expressionless face, snatched the fragment from Dr. Otto's hand, put it in front of his eyes to examine it carefully, and called out Engineer Mason from the pocket factory.
The two of them discussed it and quickly confirmed the scope of the damage.
"Seven of the nineteen energy frequency diffractors are damaged, and the remaining twelve are barely usable. In order to connect to all the Aurora devices in the seven worlds and complete the release of the cosmic frequency to stabilize the plane, four more must be repaired.
That’s the minimum required to make it work.”
After writing and drawing for a while, the engineer said with a firm tone:
"Given the precision of this thing, even if I start repairing it now, it will take at least eight hours to drive out sparks from the screws!"
"Where can I find eight hours for you? Even if you work all the speedsters to death, you won't be able to get another eight hours. Thirty minutes is the best you can get."
The subject put his beloved legendary engineering wrench into the engineer's hand, pointed at the cosmic tuning fork that had been set up again and said:
"Go fix it now! Let others help you."
"You are so unreasonable!"
The engineer cursed:
"Okay, okay, even if I can fix it, what about the energy? This city is now under the Star Fortress, and all energy connecting to the outside world has been cut off.
The energy required for this big guy to generate cosmic frequencies sufficient to affect the planes and trigger fusion resonance is an astronomical figure!
How do you solve this?"
"The charging progress has reached 60% before."
Zhang Parker held a computer whose screen was smashed by falling rocks, and said to Mason in the dim light:
"This energy is more than enough to activate the tuning fork."
"It's just enough to start it."
Janet covered her bleeding forehead with a handkerchief and said in a heavy tone:
"It needs energy supply every second when it is running. It cannot stop in the middle. We must find another way. Perhaps I can take the risk of activating the quantum tunnel and extract energy from the quantum world to supply it?"
"Aren't you afraid of releasing the quantum zombies and taking everyone down with them?"
Zhang Parker shouted.
Dr. Reed wanted to come over and say a few words, but he suddenly noticed that Mason took something out of his pocket. The thing emitted a crystal light in the dim and messy laboratory.
All discussions stopped at this moment.
They all turned their heads to look at Mason, as if a voice was telling them that the magical Mason actually had a solution before he came.
"This situation would have been impossible to solve four hours ago."
Mason held up what he had in his hand in the darkness, and said with a strange feeling:
"If we had given up our crazy plan to fight Unicron to the end in the Isu world... I mean, if we were not firm enough four hours ago, if we chose to escape from the disaster of destruction, then now all that would be left for everyone is endless despair.
Fortunately, we chose to be brave then, and now we deserve to enjoy the privileges of being brave."
"What's that in your hand?"
Zhang Parker shouted:
"Why do I feel like that thing is an enlarged version of the processor?"
“It’s a processor, but it’s not the kind you’re familiar with.”
Mason stared at the black mechanical block in his hand. Nearly four hours after it fell into Mason's hands, the main processor containing the core spark of Unicron finally read the complete information tag:
Star Emperor's Heart Core Spark Source Processor
Quality: Engineering Cosmic Artifact Immortal Relic
Traits: Infinite Energy, Mechanical Will, Eternity, Sleeping Spark
Item Effect:
1. Heart of the Star Emperor:
The core spark of Unicron was born in the Big Bang at the beginning of the universe. Its existence is based on the source of this universe. As long as the universe is not destroyed, the energy of this object will not be exhausted.
The energy of the core spark can be converted into any form of energy and can be used to charge any known mechanical structure without any loss.
However, the item is of too high a grade, and mechanical creations below the legendary grade will be 100% overloaded when charging.
warn!
The mechanical will of the Unicron is dormant in the main server. Long-term use of this item to charge the same mechanical body has a certain chance of causing the mechanical body to be contaminated by the will of the Star Emperor.
2. All things change:
When the main processor is installed in any mechanical device, it will be endowed with the ability of [Mechanical Deformation] and [Perfect Simulation].
When the main server is installed in a mechanical weapon system, the weapon will be given the [Energy Projection MAX] ability.
When the main server is installed in the vehicle system, it will grant the vehicle the abilities of [Superluminal Speed·Dimension Crossing], [Max Energy Absorption], and [Max Mechanical Repair].
When the main server is installed in the defense system, the main body connected to the system will be given the [Planetary Level·Energy Matrix] and [Planetary Level·Astral Armament] capabilities.
warn!
The quality of the above equipment connected to the Star Emperor's Heart server should not be lower than that of the [Artifact], otherwise it will cause mechanical damage and system overload.
warn!
The mechanical will of the Unicron is dormant in the main server. If items are installed on the same mechanical body for a long time, there is a certain probability that the mechanical body will be contaminated by the will of the Star Emperor.
3. Source of machinery :
As one of the sources of silicon-based life, the core spark of Unicron can give mechanical activity to all inorganic matter that can produce deformation. The closer the object is to the nature of metal, the more activity it retains. Mechanical objects composed entirely of metal are transformed into new Cybertronians, and unconditionally obey the orders of the Heart of the Star Emperor before their own wisdom awakens.
But be careful!
The will that the Heart of the Star Emperor bestows on the machine is absolutely free, because the arrogant Cosmic Emperor never disdains to use manipulation to force his creations to obey.
hint!
After being given vitality, the new mechanical life form will break away from the original data framework and no longer accept any forced orders.
hint!
No energy is consumed when using the Heart of the Star Emperor to perform this operation. The amount of mechanical activity that can be granted at one time depends on the user's understanding of the target creation and the user's own engineering level.
warn!
When using the Heart of the Star Emperor to animate a mechanical body, the user's mind will come into brief contact with the dormant will of Unicron, so those with weak wills should not use this function.
Creator: Unicron/Star Emperor/Cosmic Destroyer
Item Description: Dear little Mason, let's talk about this. You give me this treasure in exchange. I will come down to earth in person to help you with everything, risking being beaten up by others, and introduce my sister to you. She is also a water player, and you two will definitely get along well. Deal?
"Today's item description is as obscene as ever. Looks like that annoying guy is back at work again."
Mason curled his lips, picked up a cable next to him that was connected to the Cosmic Tuning Fork Energy Module, replaced it with a universal plug and connected it to the Star Emperor's Heart Processor.
The next second, as the processor heated up slightly, the abundant energy from the core spark instantly lit up the light strip around the cosmic tuning fork, allowing the dim golden leaning tower to illuminate the entire palace that was pressed under a mountain range in an instant.
"Main battery charging quickly! 80%! 95%!"
As Zhang Parker screamed excitedly, everyone in the laboratory cheered.
Mason also smiled. He quietly wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and was about to speak when he heard the Moubis Chair say in a sharp voice:
"This machine is running low on energy! Warning! This machine is losing energy quickly and will shut down soon! We recommend that the first passenger immediately find a powerful energy source nearby to recharge this machine..."
"Just act like a showman!"
The captain knocked on the armrest of the Mobius chair, tossed the core spark processor in his hand, and said:
"You really want me to put this hot thing inside you?"
"Warning to the first passenger! What you just said can be considered sexual harassment in human ethics. In order to avoid this machine reporting you to the nearest law enforcement agency, this machine recommends that you immediately place a powerful energy source on the socket of this machine."
The Mobius Chair explains very seriously:
"First, this machine just wants to experience the taste of this top-tier cosmic energy. Second, this machine noticed that Unicron's processor is inputting some unique instructions into the cosmic tuning fork.
This should be related to its nature of endowing mechanical bodies with vitality.
If you don't want the cosmic tuning fork to suddenly 'come alive', you should hand it over to this machine, which will then act as an energy transfer to send safer energy into the cosmic tuning fork.
This machine has an independent logical thinking module and will not be affected by the core spark of the Unicron."
"Well, your consideration makes a lot of sense."
Mason glanced at the scene around him which had become busy again. He took an adapter cable as thick as his arm, connected one end to the Mobius chair and the other end to the energy interface of the cosmic tuning fork.
He said:
"It is not yet certain whether the core fire will have any adverse effects on you, so if there is any problem, please notify me immediately."
"Order accepted!"
The Mobius chair made a sharp and urgent buzzing sound, and Mason reached out and inserted the Star Emperor Heart processor in his hand into the slot that popped open on the armrest of the Mobius chair.
The next moment, every luminous module of the entire mechanical chair began to shine brightly. It was true that the energy frequency after it was transferred became very stable, so that Dr. Reed and Zhang Parker, who were in charge of energy, no longer had to worry about the tuning fork being overloaded.
"Hmm? Why aren't you talking?"
Mason looked at his chair in surprise, which had been so excited just now and suddenly became quiet.
He thought it was broken, but as soon as he put his hand on the control panel, the mechanical smart chair began to vibrate rapidly as if it was going crazy.
“It’s… so cool!!!”
The Mobius Chair, which had always been calm, suddenly gave off a sharp cry as if it had taken drugs. It shouted:
"I felt like every thread, every processor and every screw in my body was screaming! Ah, this surging energy power made me feel like the core processor was going to overload and burn.
Is this what it feels like to be alive? Is this the power of Unicron? Ah, I feel that my core module that was removed by Brainiac is repairing itself. I am about to become a complete chair!
Hey, there is a new mimicry function in the program module of this machine ..."
"What madness!"
Mason, startled, slapped the arm of the chair hard and scolded:
"Get down to business!"
"Juti, stop standing there laughing like an idiot and come and screw in the screws!"
Engineer Mason was busy on top of the tuning fork, shouting at the top of his voice:
"Also, I just re-evaluated it. Thirty minutes is not enough to repair it. I can only repair one of them at most. And some of them are so badly damaged that we don't have the materials to restore them.
So you might have to be prepared to give up both worlds.”
“I don’t want to give up any of them.”
Mason turned around, coughing and holding his chest, and said:
"It has come to this point, I am unwilling to give up any of them. This thing is made of Origin X metal, and the main power armor of the universe was dismantled to make a mold for it.
It must be repaired to..."
"Mason! The Green Goblin sent a message saying that the blond kid who always speaks arrogantly in Osborne Tower wants to see you."
The old wolf ran in from outside and said to Mason:
"That guy said he has a way to fix our tuning fork without activating the Speed Force Matrix!"
