The sample comparison results came out quickly.
With every round of replication, the secondary replica and the replica one level above it showed a slight deviation. Copying two or three times had little effect, but after six or seven continuous replications, those tiny deviations accumulated into a major problem.
For something as incomparably precise as the 'Planet Virus,' it could tolerate virtually no deviation whatsoever. A difference of a hair could lead to an error of a thousand miles! The accumulated issues directly rendered the replicas unable to continue functioning.
Su Hao sighed. "Destroying a planet really isn't that simple!"
Just like human cells, every replication caused a certain degree of damage. Once the number of replications reached a certain point, the cells would inevitably age and die, or spiral out of control and proliferate endlessly.
Now that he knew where the problem lay, how should he solve it?
Su Hao quickly came up with a solution: add a post-replication self-inspection and adjustment program.
That meant that after replication was complete, they would not rush to activate the 'Casual Gate' program for transfer. Instead, they would first conduct a comparative self-inspection, confirming that the replica was identical to the virus original from the level above, without the slightest deviation.
If there was any deviation, it would first have to adjust itself, then continue running self-inspections. Only after the self-inspection program met the standard could it activate the 'Casual Gate' program and distribute the replication work.
After all, the 'Planet Virus' was unlike human cells. Cells could not have a self-inspection program inserted into them, nor could they self-regulate.
But a human-made creation like the 'Planet Virus' could be modified at will. Nearly any function one wanted could be realized, as long as the train of thought was properly sorted out.
