Chapter 1610: Chapter 602: Mercy Has No Place in Command

The human way of thinking can be roughly divided into two categories: rationality and sensibility.

Rationality and sensibility are like the two ends of a balance. Different individuals always sway back and forth on this balance, perhaps showing a phase-wise or individualized tendency. However, there is no person who is absolutely rational, nor anyone who is absolutely emotional.

Fear, as an emotion, is the most extreme of human emotional states.

Among all human fears, the fear of death is the deepest and most enduring.

The fear of death can maximize human sensibility. When this emotional fear reaches a certain limit, it does not completely tip the balance of rationality and sensibility. Human emotions will naturally continue to enhance the weight of rationality, thereby maintaining the balance. This is why there is the saying that fear can lead to either breakdown or absolute calmness.

Thus, in chaotic times, there emerge troublemakers—these so-called troublemakers are precisely because they are human, pushed to the extremes by the external environment.

Either they die from fragility and incompetence, or they live stronger, working harder to think and survive a little better.

Human beings in this state possess the greatest creativity.

Therefore, from ancient times to the present, war has been the catalyst for science for the human race.

This is an eternal truth.

The difference is that in ancient times, humanity’s object of war was the natural disasters caused by various harsh environments and all kinds of ferocious beasts.

In the medieval era, humans became their own objects of war.

Now, the enemy of the Mechanical Empire has become the other three races that have evolved and differentiated from humans.

Situated in the core combat area between the Mechanical Empire and the Sublimators, the Red Blade Clan is now facing the most critical situation, confronting the most brutal war threat.

If not for the ironclad communal will of the Red Blade Clan, painstakingly forged over the years under Ren Zhong’s guidance by Xiao Xingyue, the situation would have taken a different direction.

Especially since ’The Long Journey’ documentary has established the unique cultural attributes of the former Source Star humans, now the Red Blade people, Ren Zhong’s subjects might indeed have been crushed under this high pressure. The Red Blade Clan would have been overwhelmed by the indescribable fear of death.

But now, everyone has stood up.

Everyone knows that because the Earl refuses to retreat, the entire tribe has actually reached its final moment.

We either perish here, or be reborn from the ashes.

...

Yang Misi proposed a technical path, so the subsequent implementation is no longer a matter for Yang Misi alone. It requires the collective brainstorming of the entire Red Blade Clan, including the Source Star Science Academy back home.

Due to the urgency of the situation, there is little time to spare with thorough deliberation, so everyone’s actions are swift.

Even Sun Ai was mobilized.

The Red Blade Vanguard Corps formed a network-like communications relay with numerous Viper Fighters, barely restoring contact with the outside world. However, the information transfer speed of those conventional communication methods was too slow to meet the needs.

Sun Ai took about five seconds to "think," then additionally deployed a specialized module for developing a stronger directional, small-range encrypted information transfer method.

With the support of the network base station formed by the Viper Fighter array, the communication between the vanguard corps and the base camp seemed to transform from wireless to wired, significantly reducing Sun Ai’s operational difficulty. Fighting against the interferences from the Sublimators in a small range proved much easier than combating them from all angles.

With the aids of a specialized module, Sun Ai quickly managed to switch out targeted encryption-enhanced communications with a rapid frequency of up to a trillion times per second, intermittently restoring communications through the Viper Fighter array.

The technology on the Sublimator’s side is indeed very strong. Even when Sun Ai’s specialized module operates at a frequency of up to a trillion times per second, the Sublimators can always quickly track it down, rapidly identify the frequency, and then carry out a new pinpoint interference.

One must know that Sun Ai’s side is actively changing the frequency while the opposing side is passively tracking, locating, decrypting, and then finding the targeted frequency. This entire set of processes involves many more steps, with a world of difference in the need for computational power.

Clearly, within the body of the second-class Mother Empress, or the second-class Mother Empress itself, there is a purely biological information flow emitting organ. Their decryption method relies more on biological instinct rather than purely overwhelming computational power like Sun Ai.
