"Fixing carbon dioxide directly into food... I never expected this technology to be our greatest gain."
Agnes sighed with emotion.
The technology Inori Yuzuriha had shared with the Martian Sphere was carbon dioxide fixation: methods for turning carbon dioxide into starch, ethanol, and other substances, along with artificial food-printing technology built upon them. Simply put, it made artificial meat indistinguishable from real meat.
The Martian Sphere did not lack energy, because there were no N-Jammers there.
Thus, with energy secured and food assured, the Martian Sphere's fundamental survival needs had been fully guaranteed.
That meant one thing.

"Although she looks human, her exterior is actually synthetic skin, while the inside consists of precise mechanical structures. She is equipped with Root, a nuclear energy source located in her chest cavity, and a special compact anti-N-Jammer."
