Chapter 277

"But that will make you more distracted, right?"

"Don't worry, it's not a big deal."

"No, let's not do it... It's almost the same as what we saw in Mewtwo."

He rejected Lin Qiao's kindness with a slightly tough attitude.

"You really like to get stuck in strange places."

With a helpless smile, he shook his head and then looked at the moon advertisement playing on the monitor above his head.

"But if you don't go, your dream will be eaten by me..."

The subtle voice was easily drowned out in the slightly noisy hall.

Lucy next to him looked at him seriously and didn't say anything.

Just when the two were chatting, some noise came from the airport runway outside.

And the announcement of the landing of the space shuttle sounded on the radio.

It's different from other lackeys who came to pick up the plane and were eager to greet their masters immediately.

Lin Qiao and Lucy just sat there quietly.

After about ten minutes, when the sweeping robot passed by the feet of the two, a lump of blue gel-like substance drilled out of it.

This is what he left on the moon before, responsible for absorbing some of the planet's genetic factors.

——It is also the object that he and Lucy came to pick up this time.

The reason why he didn't teleport directly back was not only to save energy, but also to take Lucy out to relax.

But the latter plan was obviously not very smooth.

"It's really unexpectedly delicious."

As the genetic factors quickly merged into Lin Qiao's body, he also showed an expression of enjoyment on his face.

In this way, his trump card is ready.

Chapter 344 Ace Beyond Nuclear Bombs

Lin Qiao is a cautious person... Well, to put it nicely, he is cautious, and to put it bluntly, he is a bit paranoid.

Although he has always looked unhurried, he is obviously fighting for life and death, but he is still playing house with the hacker girl, and he doesn't look anxious at all.

But to be honest, that is purely because he has many clones and can play multi-line operations.

So there is no need to let the main body take risks for some things.

——For example, strengthening your own strength.

In the case of no feelings and no shortcuts, the only way to solve the problem is to eat and eat.

Apart from the clone disguised as the Chimera Box in the basement of Arasaka Tower, there is also the planet-eating.

The moon, a natural satellite that has been orbiting the earth for countless years since the birth of mankind, naturally became Lin Qiao's target.

Its volume is only one forty-ninth of the earth, and its mass is equivalent to one eighty-first.

This means that if it takes two or three hundred years for the earth to eat up, it will only take a few years for the moon.

Probably.

Although this is indeed the case in theory, in reality, there are far more things to consider than just paper data.

Not to mention that after the moon disappears, the tidal phenomenon will also disappear, and the extreme climate change caused by it will cause tens of thousands of humans on the earth to fall directly.

Just one very important factor is destined that Lin Qiao will not eat up the moon completely.

——That is gravity.

First of all, I would like to explain that before meeting Lin Qiao, Arasaka Saburo invested a lot of energy in the moon.

The reason is the mass accelerator on the surface of the moon.

I won't talk about the theory that is too profound. In short, you just need to understand one thing, that is, that thing can use meteorites as ammunition to directly bombard the surface of the earth.

It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a new era of nuclear weapons.

It is precisely based on this point that in addition to the original mass accelerator, Lin Qiao has a bolder idea.

Because the process of absorbing the planet is a gradual process, he can't be like a certain stinky brother, who can leave the keyboard with both hands after opening a black hole.

While this brings inconvenience, you can also play some interesting things.

After all, in the process of him swallowing the planet, the moon, whose mass is gradually reduced, will be captured by the gravity of the earth, gradually approaching the earth, and then...

Boom!

Although this is a relatively long time, and to reach this point, Lin Qiao will also eat a considerable part of the moon itself, resulting in a significant reduction in power.

But no matter what, the power of the falling lunar debris will eventually cause the ecological extinction of the earth's native land.

——This is much more exciting than throwing meteorites.

I think a certain shrimp dumpling will give him a thumbs up after seeing it.

"That being said, this is the trump card that can only be used at the last moment."

He was not so crazy that he would just go for a mass extinction and attack indiscriminately just because he could not find the whereabouts of his opponent for a while.

Therefore, Lin Qiao must master the swallowing of the moon to a just right degree.

While ensuring that his own evolutionary needs are met to a certain extent, it will not cause any excessive impact on the gravitational system between the earth and the moon.

Lest he fail to find his opponent in the end, and cause the tragedy of human extinction after leaving this world.

"But speaking of it, I have really changed a lot."

I don't know what it was, Lin Qiao sighed slightly.

Before crossing, he would tremble when killing a fish and get slapped by the fish twice, but now, in order to achieve his goal, he can make a cold decision to exterminate the life of an entire planet without any psychological burden.

He even thought of using Lucy as bait to impersonate himself and then lure another time traveler.

Although this idea was thrown out by him shortly after it came up, it seemed to explain something.

——He was already changing in a terrible direction.

It was not a simple biological change, but more internal, such as cognitive and psychological.

In this regard, Lin Qiao also realized this very clearly.

Looking at the scenery passing by quickly outside the car window, and then his eyes moved to Lucy who was holding the steering wheel with both hands in the driver's seat.

Although from the perspective of survival alone, this cold rationality is not a bad thing, but it can ensure that he will not be angered by the enemy and can make the most correct choice.

But...

Some things are still difficult to explain.

And after the emotions disappeared, the belligerent instinct of the blood star people began to emerge.

Although it is not like Long Wo, who simply cannot suppress it after the outbreak, in a sense, it has become like a beacon in the dark.

It's not difficult to stay away, but when you are distracted, you will inevitably move towards the light source subconsciously.

——This is also the reason why he tried to avoid fighting as much as possible and personally trained Lucy.

After all, if he really started fighting, he was afraid that he would not be able to stop.

In short, after this world ends, compared with other messy exchange options, he still has to find a way to see if the emotional problem can be solved first.

Otherwise, he is really not sure what he will do if he continues in this state.

"Qiao..."

Perhaps it was Lin Qiao's too straightforward gaze that made Lucy aware of something.

"Hmm? What's the matter?"

"No, it's just... By the way, what was Qiao like before?"

"In the past... I was much weaker than now, and my personality was a little hesitant. Occasionally, I would be moved by inexplicable things and wanted to pretend to be cool and handsome, but in the end, I would be ashamed when I think about it..."

Leaning on the car door with one hand, supporting his head with his hand, with a faint smile on his face and a cheerful tone.

It's just that he was too much, but it seemed like he was evaluating someone who had nothing to do with him.

"Generally speaking, it's probably enough to refer to David's appearance, but it's a weakened version."

"...Really?"

"Wow~, is it unbelievable?"

"It's not unbelievable, but it feels a little...not real?"

After all, this guy has always been the deputy planner, and he looks very reliable.

If it's David, it's still a weakened version...it's really hard to imagine.

"But unfortunately, that's the truth."

The corners of his mouth curled up a little, and he raised his hand to touch the girl's head, but put it down halfway.

Looking straight ahead on the road,

"You drive well, and you've grown up without realizing it...I remember that you had to tiptoe to guess the brakes before."

"That's because the distance between your seats is too wide...and it's only the navigation and assisted driving that are more useful."

Subconsciously refuted, but the voice became smaller as time went by.

Has he grown up?

Maybe.

I really want to say that nothing has changed, but I can't say it.

【Lucy, is K by your side? 】

At this moment, the communication from Sasha sounded in her mind at an inappropriate time.

Lucy pressed a button on the ICE virus hanging on her waist and switched the communication to public mode.

"What's wrong?" Lin Qiao asked.

"It's a little bit... I don't know if it can be considered a situation."

"?"

Why are you also starting to be a riddle man?

Chapter 345 Is this considered a test?

A situation that is not a situation... So what is the situation?

Lin Qiao's mouth twitched.

Although she wanted to complain about Sasha's transformation into a riddle man, she still had to deal with the business.

"Tell me clearly, what is it?"

"Someone stole the navigation data of our men."

"?"

Lin Qiao was silent for a while, then this is indeed not a big deal... at least on the surface.

There are countless people in Night City who are eyeing the company every day.

Compared with other important data thefts, such as the pile of biotechnology files that Sasha stole a few years ago, a mere navigation data is indeed nothing.

——The only problem is who lost the data.

This is very important.

It is fine for ordinary employees or middle managers to lose it. They don’t know and can’t get in touch with anything too confidential.

The navigation data can only analyze what time they usually get off work and where they go to have a party, which is not very important.

Most of the people who steal these have a personal grudge against them and want to find out their route of action and then find a good place to start.
