Engineers Filled with Righteous Indignation

Several engineers came over in a row, collectively submitting leave requests.

They couldn't hold on any longer, they really couldn't.

Actually, taking a vacation three days earlier or later didn't matter, but no one wanted to continue staying in an environment filled with the atmosphere of failure. It was better to go out and get some fresh air.

Li Gong's face was dark, and he glared at his subordinates unhappily.

The subordinates looked embarrassed, shrinking behind their colleagues, avoiding the leader's questioning gaze.

After a moment, Li Gong sighed, picked up a pen, and silently signed the leave requests.

Everyone was right, there were only three days left, and the chance of turning defeat into victory was almost zero. Months of hard work had gone to waste, and the only meaning was probably to be a sparring partner for the Champion.

But history only remembers the Champion, who would remember the sparring partner?

After signing the leave requests one by one, Li Gong grabbed them and handed them to his subordinates.

"Thank you, Chief!" A large group of hands reached out to take the leave requests.

The computer sounded a notification, and the screen lit up without warning!

[Design proposal "Xuanzhu Lunar Landing Edition" received, please schedule production!]

Li Gong's hand grabbing the leave requests instantly retracted, he was stunned for a moment, then decisively tore up all the leave requests and threw them into the trash can!

"A job's come! Hurry up and get to work!" Li Gong ordered.

The engineers were collectively dumbfounded, their vacation that was within reach had flown away just like that?

"Speed, speed!" Li Gong got up and banged on the table, "This is the last shot!"

The engineers woke up as if from a dream, dejectedly dispersing to work, many with resentful expressions, complaining in low voices:

"Why are we still doing it? Those two Chiefs are really tormenting us!"

"Although it's good to not admit defeat, you can't just force it, right? Only one day has passed, what good plan can be changed? Adding a few thousand points to the benchmark score is the most we can hope for!"

"And they named it Xuanzhu Lunar Landing Edition, what big words! Where does that confidence come from?"

"Forget it, forget it, this is the last time, finish the job and call it a day! Anyway, as long as Xuanzhu is not selected, we don't have to worry about the follow-up, the vacation is just postponed by three days."

Acceptance day.

Song He and Xiang Xiaotong sat in the corner, quietly watching the busy workshop.

Li Gong led dozens of engineers, busily making final adjustments.

The new Xuanzhu Supercomputer prototype stood tall in the center of the workshop, about the size of two double-door refrigerators, covered with a transparent shell, revealing layers of black components inside, almost like some kind of alien creation.

The console suddenly dinged, and the screen lit up.

An engineer passing by glanced at it and said in a panic, "Chief! The other side has released a new machine again! Moon Brain 6!"

The entire workshop erupted in an uproar!

Song He and Xiang Xiaotong also stared wide-eyed.

"Are they crazy? Releasing another version at the last minute?" Xiang Xiaotong became anxious and cursed fiercely, "Damn it, they're haunting us!"

Song He frowned slightly, but his expression quickly returned to calm, "Don't panic, Teacher, if you understand our plan this time, you'll know how stable it is."

"I hope so." Xiang Xiaotong rubbed her face with both hands, "I'm really being driven crazy by them. Every time we improve a little, they follow suit and improve a little, always one step ahead, it's almost giving me a mental demon!"

"Ours is ready too!" Li Gong said loudly, "All groups, final acceptance!"

"Processor core normal!" An engineer shouted.

"Computing area normal!"

"Memory normal!"

"Input/output area normal!"

"Brain-mimicking conversion area normal!"

A series of normals, the entire Supercomputer was assembled!

"Alright!" Li Gong gestured to the two designers in the corner.

Dozens of engineers watched the two Chiefs silently, their expressions varied.

Song He and Xiang Xiaotong rose in unison, as if by tacit agreement, and walked to the console.

"Run the score?" Li Gong asked.

"Run it!" Song He nodded vigorously.

Li Gong tapped the keyboard, and the Xuanzhu Supercomputer prototype began to run its score!

The Xuanzhu Supercomputer scoring test popped up on the screen, and after only a few seconds, the Moon Brain 6 also began to run its score simultaneously!

Song He's eyes sharpened. Was it a coincidence, or was the other side deliberately trying to compete?

It didn't matter, the odds of winning this time were huge!

A series of simple Mathematics problems flashed on the screen, easily solved by the Xuanzhu, a smooth start!

In the blink of an eye, they entered the difficult problem section!

The onlookers collectively forgot to breathe, as still as statues, not even blinking.

Taylor Series Problem, solved in seconds! Multivariable Calculus, solved in seconds!

Divergence Theorem, Vector Space, Tensor... all solved in seconds!

A look of surprise flashed in Li Gong's eyes. "The last time we tested to this point, the lag was already severe!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a roar sounded in the workshop. The Xuanzhu Supercomputer's cooling system was fully engaged, finally entering full power mode!

"This is just the beginning!" Song He smiled. "This time, the Xuanzhu isn't just an upgrade, it's an evolution!"

Increasingly complex problems appeared on the screen, the problem-solving steps becoming longer and longer, and the Xuanzhu Supercomputer began to struggle.

Struggling or not, the problems were solved one by one!

Real Analysis, Euclidean Space, Complex Variable Function, Holomorphic Function, Boolean Algebra...

"Breaking the record!" Li Gong exclaimed excitedly. "We've never gone this far before!"

The watching engineers were excited. All of them were top students who excelled in Mathematics at University. Even so, the problems on the screen began to dazzle them!

The Xuanzhu Supercomputer's Mathematics comprehension ability was far surpassing that of humans!

After a long wait, the Xuanzhu Supercomputer entered the Lie Algebra problems, finally making frequent mistakes, and the scoring test froze!

In an instant, the workshop became unusually quiet.

The Xuanzhu Supercomputer's cooling sound stopped, and the onlookers held their breath.

A few seconds later, the scoring results of both sides popped up simultaneously!

[1. Moon Brain 6: 4,770,000 points!]
[2. Xuanzhu Lunar Landing Edition: 4,765,000 points!]

As soon as the scores appeared, the entire place was dumbfounded!

Everyone's heart was gripped by shock, their bodies numb from head to toe, unable to speak!

The last test score was still in the millions, but in just three days, it had skyrocketed to nearly five million points. Such an exaggerated increase was a miracle in the history of scientific research!

And it wasn't just one Supercomputer that had increased, both Supercomputers had seen this kind of increase!

Everyone's minds crashed. The scoring results were beyond everyone's acceptance range, and they didn't know how to react.

It was like a time traveler returning to the Battle of Changping, giving the Zhao army tens of thousands of submachine guns. Just as the Zhao army was about to wreak havoc, the Qin army pulled out Heavy Machine Guns!

The battlefield suddenly became a hail of bullets, even though the two sides were still shooting arrows at each other just three days ago!

"A confrontation!" Song He said suddenly.

The dazed Li Gong reacted and tapped the keyboard.

The confrontation began!

At the start, both sides' Bases developed vigorously.

Air drops and meteor showers fell in turn, nourishing or ravaging the Lunar Base. Buildings on the lunar surface were constantly erected and destroyed, like the rise and fall of a miniature civilization, stumbling and growing amidst favorable weather and unexpected disasters!

Song He stared intently at the energy difference. The energy difference between the two sides was surprisingly small, fluctuating and maintaining within a 3% gap, an unprecedented balance of power!

The two sides' bases rapidly hatched seven or eight small bases, like small counties surrounding a large city, with hundreds and thousands of transport vehicles and robots busily operating, covering the entire lunar surface with solar panels!

When the two bases reached their peak development, they discovered each other, and a great battle erupted!

Small reconnaissance units infiltrated each other, engaging in fierce fighting on the border!

After several collisions, neither side gained an advantage, and they both tacitly organized large armies to outflank each other, attempting to take a long detour to surprise the enemy!

As luck would have it, the surprise attack armies sent out by both sides encountered each other head-on in the wilderness, resulting in a chaotic melee!

Laser weapons and projectile bombs bombarded fiercely, and large vehicles collided at high speed like cavalry. After the smoke cleared, the ground was covered with glittering metal parts, and robots lay dismembered!

"A worthy opponent!" Li Gong frowned. "Which side has a higher chance of winning?"

"Hard to say." Song He stroked his chin, pondered for a long time, and repeated, "Hard to say!"

The two sides' Supercomputers used all their skills, sending out waves of troops of varying sizes to attack, feint, outflank, encircle, and raid… The battle situation suddenly became extremely complex!

Sudden events gradually escalated, and the scale of meteor showers and air drops became larger and larger. The two armies quickly learned to fight around natural disasters, trying every means to lead the enemy into meteor bombardment zones and trying to seize the enemy's air drops!

The battle situation on the screen was fierce. Hundreds of robots died every minute, and dozens of buildings were razed to the ground. At the same time, more underground and lunar surface buildings sprang up, and a tide of new robots poured out of the air drop boxes!

The surrounding engineers gasped and whispered:

"This fight is really fierce! It can't be called a battle, it's a full-scale war!"

"It's detached from reality. What country has the strength to send a robot army to the moon?"

"The Supercomputer's command ability is amazing! Simultaneously micro-managing hundreds of combat units, this technology is completely impossible for humans!"

"After fighting for so long without a winner, is there a chance to win?"

"Damn it! Win once! It doesn't matter if we lost all the previous ones! Just win the final!"

The atmosphere in the workshop became heated, and everyone clenched their fists secretly, like fans watching a game, with hot sweat dripping from their foreheads!

Months of crazy struggle, months of Supercomputer arms race, finally arrived at the final decisive battle!

Suddenly, Xiang Xiaotong exclaimed, "The energy difference is widening!"

Song He's eyes sharpened, and his own energy was gradually establishing an advantage!

5%! 10%! 15%!

With the successful establishment of an energy advantage, the Xuanzhu Supercomputer's army became more and more vigorous, and began to achieve a series of victories on the edge, crushing the enemy's defense line!

Victory! Victory! Victory!

"Kill!" An engineer couldn't help shouting.

No one laughed at him. Everyone on the scene was excited, and soon an engineer followed suit!

"Kill!"

"Kill towards the lair! Xuanzhu, go up!"

"Kill, kill, kill! Charge forward! Kill through Moon Brain!"

The atmosphere in the workshop was boiling, like a group of drunk fans in a tavern shouting!

Air drops expanded again, and a mighty rain of air drop boxes fell into both sides' camps. The Moon Brain Supercomputer violently contracted its front line, doing its best to seize the air drops!

The energy difference suddenly narrowed, and the air drop rain changed the entire battle situation. In just a few minutes, Xuanzhu's energy advantage disappeared, and Moon Brain fiercely turned the tables!

The enemy's reversal did not extinguish the enthusiasm in the workshop, and the shouts became even more deafening!

The engineers roared with red faces and thick necks. They also knew that the cold-blooded Supercomputer did not respond to shouts and cheers, but they could not control their emotions and could only roar to feel better!

Moon Brain was not able to be arrogant for long. Xuanzhu steadily reversed the situation, fighting hard, and gradually leveled the energy difference!

Difference of 10%! Difference of 5%! Difference of 1%!

At the moment when Xuanzhu was about to level the energy gap, the screen suddenly went black!

The tragic battle situation suddenly disappeared, and the roar of the Xuanzhu Supercomputer also quickly diminished, ceasing operation!

The shouting engineers quieted down for a few seconds, then burst into curses!

"What the hell is going on!"

"The network can't be down, can it! We were about to win, why did it break down at this moment?!"

"This is so outrageous! We were about to win!"

Li Gong rushed to the backup console, frantically searching for the cause, slamming the keyboard with a cacophony of clicks.

Song He almost vomited blood, he was on a roll when it stopped, it was unusually uncomfortable!

"What's wrong?" Xiang Xiaotong's face was unsightly.

"The testing platform malfunctioned, the instantaneous data volume was too large and crashed the server!" Li Gong found the cause.

"Can we restart from the save point?" Song He asked quickly.

"Wait a moment, let me ask." Li Gong took out his phone.

Song He sighed, his chest feeling tight.

Suddenly, his phone vibrated in his pocket.

He took it out and saw it was General Wang's call.

"General, we are currently..." Song He said after answering.

"I know, video conference in ten minutes! You, me, and the Moon Brain team, a three-way meeting, prepare yourselves." General Wang said.
