Scholar’s Advanced Technological System - Chapter 1524

Chapter 1524 – Almost Killed By My Own People

As soon as Yang Wu?s words fell, numerous pairs of eyes turned to Lu Zhou.

My opinion?

After hearing these words, Lu Zhou hesitated slightly.

He didn?t know much about this meeting. He heard most of the news from Minister Xue on the way to the meeting room.

To be honest, Lu Zhou was still a little confused about the quantum computer array on Ceres and the electromagnetic cannon deployed on it.

Captain Xing told him some inside information on the phone, but he was hesitant during the conversation, so Lu Zhou didn?t understand much.

Perhaps the Security Bureau had been stunned by this amazing discovery. Who would have thought that such a powerful military base would be so generously hidden in the asteroid belt…

?… Regarding the supercomputing center on Ceres, I actually don?t want to express my opinion, because I have the belief that if you don?t understand something, you should not have an opinion.? Lu Zhou thought about it for a while and continued, ?It doesn?t matter whether it is a masterpiece of an extraterrestrial civilization or the secret base of the foundation, or if there is some kind of collusion between the two… I don?t think it is necessary to destroy it.

?Since the initiative is in our hands, my suggestion is to try to study the program running in the quantum computer array.?

?Does this mean that we are helping the lawbreakers complete their ulterior motives?? Standing up at the conference table, the information technology consultant from the Security Bureau frowned and said, ?The ALPHA virus is raging in the Pan-Asian Cooperation. It is very likely that it has spread around the world! If the terrorists complete the virus upgrade, we will lose everything!?

?Although I am not an expert in the field of information security, common sense tells me that if we want to develop an antidote, we must first understand what the virus is.? Lu Zhou explained calmly as he looked at the expert who raised the objection, ?The ALPHA virus is just a piece of code that can automatically evolve, and an organization called the foundation is deliberately spreading it. We don?t know anything other than that.

?This may very well be our only chance to uncover the truth of all this.?

Yang Wu frowned and said after thinking for a moment, ?You mean… help our enemies??

?Only helping the supercomputing center,? Lu Zhou corrected. ?I believe the First Fleet has shut down all the signal towers in the entire base. As long as we can ensure the control of this supercomputing center, then it can be used by us.?

Minister Xue nodded and said, ?I agree with Academician Lu?s view… The Academy of Science will send a group of experts to the front line to assist in the investigation.?

Academician Wang Sicheng also nodded.

?This is also my point of view… But my intuition tells me that there are many secrets worth digging into at the supercomputing center.?

The consultant at the Security Bureau seemed to have something else to say, but after hesitating for a while, he finally gave up.

From a security perspective, helping the supercomputing center continue its research was undoubtedly riddled with risks. Although the First Fleet could ensure absolute control, it was difficult to guarantee that the First Fleet itself wasn?t infiltrated with members from the foundation.

They wouldn?t even need to corrupt many high-level officers. A few soldiers on duty could be enough.

Anyone that dealt with the foundation on a common basis knew that this was a widespread method.

After the meeting, Lu Zhou thought for a while whether to go to Jin University for class or simply go home to continue his research. He saw Consultant Yang walking towards him.

?Nice to meet you, Academician Lu, I am Yang Wu, the chief consultant of the First Fleet… You probably already know this.? Yang Wu took the initiative to shake hands with Lu Zhou. He continued with a smile, ?Since that day, I have wanted to visit you, but because I am serving at the Lagrange Space Base, I have yet to have the opportunity.?

After shaking hands with Consultant Yang, Lu Zhou hesitated and said, ?That day??

?N-177.?

When Lu Zhou heard this number, he immediately realized what was the day he was talking about.

Seeing how Lu Zhou was silent, Yang Wu continued with a smile, ?The headquarters was discussing the issue of the greater good. Fortunately, you were on board at that time, so we avoided that difficult decision.?

?What greater good…?

?Basically, because of the hundreds of thousands of citizens stranded on the Tianzhou, we considered whether to directly destroy the out-of-control N-177 and force it to deviate from orbit.?

After hearing these words, Lu Zhou almost spat out a mouthful of blood.

I was that close to seeing the gates of heaven?

The most embarrassing thing would be if I were killed not by the hijackers but by the First Fleet…

?… You almost became the sinner of all of mankind.?

As a carrier of The Observer?s genes and a bridge between human civilization and The Observer civilization, if that ship were destroyed, Lu Zhou would instantly change from an endangered species to an extinct species.

?I know, so I owe you a thank you for this matter.? Yang Wu smiled and continued, ?In fact, in that situation, we all believed that you would be able to save the flight that was out of control, so we didn?t make any rash decisions… Fortunately, we made the right bet.?

Lu Zhou: ?This is not a pleasant memory. Let?s change the subject.?

?It seems that I was too abrupt.? With an apologetic expression, Yang Wu suddenly thought of something, so he reached into his bag.

?By the way, there is one thing I want to give to you.?

Seeing his movements, Lu Zhou asked, ?What thing??

?A diary.?

Yang Wu took out a paper diary and handed it to Lu Zhou.

Lu Zhou curiously took it from his hands and flipped through it. He spoke as he frowned.

?What is this??

?A personal belonging of a crew member. The formulas you deciphered were copied from this diary…? Yang Wu smiled embarrassedly and said, ?Although I don?t want to trouble you, I always feel that there are still many clues that have not been dug up from this diary… You should be able to find something.?

Lu Zhou looked at the contents of the diary with great interest. He said casually, ?I don?t mind, but is it really okay to give me this critical task directly??

To be honest, although he was not particularly interested in the affairs of the foundation, he was still quite interested in the space station.

If he could find relevant clues, maybe he could find some unexpected things.

Yang Wu smiled and replied, ?Of course this is not the original; it?s just a copy. You can use it at will, but it?s better not to upload it to the Internet.?

Lu Zhou touched his chin and stared at the diary. He muttered to himself, ?I see…?
