Chapter 516 The Finale!
The system panel pops up line by line:
【The Final Craftsmanship: Complete Awakening】
【Core Power Source: Star Core Crystallization (Activity Locked, No Longer Decreasing)】
[Consciousness Trigger: Implanted]
[Consciousness Deconstruction Mode: Unlocked]
[New form available - final form]
Specialization: Combat at the Consciousness Level
[Weapon Module: The Ultimate Formula for Consciousness Deconstruction (One-Time Use)]
Zhang Yan read every single line.
Active locking.
Crystallization no longer decays.
He glanced back at the crystallization state; the number had stabilized at 97.3% and was no longer decreasing.
The nine-hour countdown has ended.
The moment the injection is complete, the trigger completely binds the crystallized material to the frame, and the active window becomes inactive.
Nie Qingcheng also saw this line of text.
"The countdown is over," she said.
"Um."
"Then you can sleep for four hours."
Zhang Yan glanced at her.
She stood in the lab for more than eight hours, plus the four hours he spent on the installation and injection process, so she was awake for more than twenty hours.
"You go to sleep first."
"I'm asking you, who has been standing here for eight hours?" Nie Qingcheng retorted.
Zhang Yan thought for a moment and said, "You can sleep sitting up."
"Zhang Yan".
"Okay, let's go back together."
Nie Qingcheng walked towards the elevator, pausing briefly as she passed the final stage of the Heavenly Craftsmanship.
The golden-white light illuminated her profile for a moment, but she didn't look at it for long and continued walking.
Zhang Yan followed behind, taking one last look at the final stage of the Heavenly Craft.
It came to life.
The formula is inside.
One-time use.
Once inside the elevator, the doors closed, and the lights changed from cool white to warm yellow.
Nie Qingcheng leaned against the elevator wall and closed her eyes for a moment.
When will the test be conducted?
"At 10 a.m. this morning, on the far side of the moon, Qin Xiao has arranged the launch trajectory."
Nie Qingcheng opened her eyes and glanced at her watch.
6:14 AM.
Four hours.
"Enough for a good night's sleep."
The elevator reached the first floor, the door opened, all the lights in the living room were off, the curtains were not drawn, and a sliver of gray-white was just beginning to appear on the eastern horizon.
Nie Qingcheng walked straight to the bedroom, and Zhang Yan followed.
The two of them changed their clothes and lay down without turning on the lights.
As the mattress sank in, Nie Qingcheng's foot touched his calf.
It's cold.
Zhang Yan reached out and pulled her feet together.
There was silence for about ten seconds in the darkness.
"Zhang Yan".
"Um."
"What were you thinking about while you stood in front of the observation window for two hours?"
"I don't know," Zhang Yan said.
He really didn't know.
Those four hours were completely wasted.
There was silence for a few more seconds.
"I guess you're thinking about me." Nie Qingcheng's voice was already tinged with sleepiness.
Zhang Yan had no way to refute it.
He thought for a moment: "Most likely."
Nie Qingcheng didn't say anything more.
Breathing became calm within a minute.
Zhang Yan closed his eyes and fell asleep within three minutes.
The alarm clock is set for nine o'clock.
At nine o'clock in the morning, the alarm clock rang for two seconds before I turned it off.
When Zhang Yan opened his eyes, Nie Qingcheng was no longer in bed.
He got up, the bedroom door was half open, and voices came from the living room.
"Ejection window at 10:03, landing site on the far side of the moon confirmed, evacuation route checked twice and no problems," Qin Xiao's voice said.
"What is the full-power release radius?" asked Nie Qingcheng.
"Stargazing calculations indicate a distance of 18 kilometers, with a safe distance of over 50 kilometers. There are no assets on the far side of the moon, so feel free to bomb it."
Zhang Yan got dressed and went outside.
Qin Xiao sat on the sofa, with a paper catapult plan on the coffee table in front of him and two cups of coffee next to it.
Nie Qingcheng stood by the window, holding her third cup.
"He's awake." Qin Xiao pushed the plan towards him.
Zhang Yan sat down and scanned the area.
The ejection trajectory calculation is correct, and the landing site is selected in the South Pole Basin on the far side of the moon, more than 300 kilometers away from any known facility.
"Stargazing?"
"In the lab, they're running simulation data for the final state," Qin Xiao said. "She said you can just start it up after you go down; she's already pre-loaded the parameters."
Zhang Yan put down the plan and looked at Nie Qingcheng: "Is there anything to add?"
Nie Qingcheng turned around.
She changed into a gray shirt, with the sleeves rolled up to her forearms. Her hair, which had been washed but not dried, hung down her shoulders.
"Run at full power for up to 30 seconds, no matter how much data you get, you must stop after 30 seconds."
"OK."
"If the temperature of the Tiangong Heart exceeds the safety limit, immediately cut off the output. Do not try to withstand it."
"Know."
Nie Qingcheng walked over, sat down, took a sip of coffee, and picked up the catapult plan to look at it again.
"What time will you be back?"
"Round trip plus testing, four hours. Before 2 PM."
"Before 2 o'clock." Nie Qingcheng put down the plan.
She said that before.
The one in Antarctica, the one at the core of the sun.
Zhang Yan stood up: "I'm leaving."
Qin Xiao then stood up.
The three people entered the elevator and went down to the second basement level.
In the laboratory, the Tiangong Finale stands steadily on the maintenance frame, its golden-white glow steadfast.
Guan Xing sat in front of the terminal, and on the screen ran a bunch of frequency curves that Zhang Yan could understand at a glance.
"The data transfer is complete." Guan Xing looked up. "I've written the form-switching command in the third position of the protocol layer. You can trigger it with a simple thought; no manual confirmation is required."
Zhang Yan stepped onto the platform.
The Tiangong Final Array sensed his approach, the core cabin opened automatically, and the driver's seat rose.
The moment he sat down, his entire body was secured by a flexible support structure, the interface of the Thousand Machine Arm connected to his back, and the Heart of Heaven and the Crystal established a two-way channel.
The system panel lights up, all green.
"The uplink channel is open," Qin Xiao said in the communication.
The laboratory's top opening allows the Tiangong Finale to ascend along a vertical catapult track, pass through the ground camouflage layer, and be launched into the airspace above Beijing.
The city was still dark in the early hours of the morning.
After reaching an altitude of 30,000 meters, the mech switched to horizontal flight with its thrusters fully engaged.
high speed.
It is more than twice as fast as the normal chaotic state.
Zhang Yan felt the acceleration pressing on his chest, but the Tiangong Ultimate's buffer system was far superior to the old version, and the discomfort only lasted for two seconds before disappearing.
The voice of the stargazer came through the communicator: "Escape from the atmosphere, enter the ejection orbit, expected to reach the far side of the moon in thirty-seven minutes."
Thirty-seven minutes.
Chaos used to take an hour and a half to fly to the moon.
"The propulsion performance has been improved," Zhang Yan said.
"With direct power from the crystal condensation, the four spirit cores no longer share the propulsion load; all power is now used for combat," said Guan Xing. "You can now reach Mars orbit in just six hours."
Qin Xiao chimed in on the channel, "Your sister-in-law said to focus on your studies."
Zhang Yan did not reply.
Thirty-seven minutes later, on the far side of the moon.
The Tiangong-class deceleration system hovered over the Antarctic basin.
Beneath my feet lay grayish-white lunar soil, devoid of any man-made objects, and the area within a 200-kilometer radar scan range was completely clean.
"Safety confirmed." (Star Gazette)
Zhang Yan let out a breath.
"Initiation final form".
He did not use manual commands.
The moment that thought crossed my mind, the switch on the third bit of the protocol layer was automatically triggered.
The changes begin in the chest cavity.
The energy from the four core spirits surges towards the Heart of Heavenly Craftsmanship simultaneously, but not in the mixed output of the old version.
Four energy streams with different properties converge, compress, and recombine on the surface of the crystal, forming a composite energy form that Zhang Yan had never experienced before.
The mecha's outer frame began to be reconstructed.
The metal is moving, not mechanically, but at the atomic level, rearrangement.
