Chapter 26: Lie Down~

“Thank you, General.”
0
“You don’t need to thank me. I was just being honest.” Ghingham did the customary end-of-day check to make sure Ade hadn’t done any damage to TurnA’s systems, “This check is worthless at all. If you can cause damage, that would be the biggest progress.”
0
Today was the fourth day of work to begin TurnA’s parsing, and General Ghingham was in full charge of the operation. After a few days, Ade was able to carry on a normal conversation with him like this. Apart from his looks, this man was not really that scary.
0
Half of the time has passed, the parsing work itself has not made any progress. The difficulty is so high that it is like asking an elementary school student to calculate calculus. All the core systems are encrypted by an unseen algorithm, and any access to the program, the documents are completely closed. The complexity of the encryption algorithm has exceeded the capacity of any existing computer ceiling.
0
To his level without any background knowledge, crack this system by himself is completely impossible. What let him persist until now is only unwillingness.
0
“Even if there is no gain, there is always some idea.” Ghingham finished his inspection and left the secret warehouse where TurnA was stored side by side with Ade, “Not as a researcher, but as a person, an NT.”
0
“Malice, full of malice.” Ade was getting more and more gutted the more he thought about it these days, “Deliberately handing over an unprotected nuclear launch button to a child who was fighting with other children. His Highness Roland’s self-control is simply 
 I kind of understand what the moon has been doing.”
0
“It’s something that only people with a really strong heart can do, and it took me a long time to understand it.” Ghingham nodded frankly, “I’m not as good as him.”
0
The entire TurnA, despite being completely encrypted, was completely open to all basic operations and access to weapons, with no restrictions, and could not even be locked at all. As long as Ade wants, he can simply drive it and run away, launch the Moonlight Butterfly system and destroy the world.
0
And TurnA itself is not affected by Moonlight Butterfly. That is to say, the person who created this thing is not afraid of Moonlight Butterfly.
0
It is simply straightforward to tell you that you are not allowed to learn any techniques from it, not allowed to use it to rebel against me, only allowed to use it to kill each other. This naked malice is obviously overflowing. Whoever abandoned TurnA on the moon definitely did not have any good intentions. Anyone with little self-control or evil intentions found it, it is likely that everyone is now living like cavemen.
0
But the question arises again. Why does such a person use such a roundabout way? Why doesn’t the person destroy the world directly? Just a bad taste, or is there some reason why it can’t be done? Ade can’t figure it out. The clues are too few.
0
Now even if someone tells him that tomorrow the earth will be gone, he can not find a reason to refute. The most desperate is that he can not do anything. Every day with TurnA is like fighting an incomprehensibly powerful man. He does not even know who the other side is, and the other side does not even need to know who he is.
0
He now also understands the Diana couple’s so-called absolute neutrality. With such a big sword hanging over your head, who has the effort to get involved in ZAFT and Federation’s petty fights? As for getting the understanding and support of the two powers, look at how PLANT treated the suspected alien fossils that the father of the Coordinator got back from Jupiter. To them, not happened yet means not exist at all.
0
The feeling of sleeping on the crater of a volcano every day is really hard, but what makes it even harder for him is the powerlessness. Roland said that he was a mediocre person who didn’t know what was going on, but was he stronger? He only knows what he knows and doesn’t know what he doesn’t know

0
“Ghingham General,” Ade suddenly asked, “Please let me talk to Her Majesty and His Highness, I have ideas. I need more time!”
0
Just a little sorry to C.C..Ah, I said it would only be a week, I hope she will not be angry. If it was her, she would have pretended not to care while asking, “Why should I be angry?
0
He was still hesitant to tell C.C. about what he had learned here. Although Diana said that there was no harm in telling the person he trusted the most, he felt that there was something missing between him and C.C., and it seemed that he was not ready to talk about it. C.C.’s attitude of hiding something from Geass still gives him a bit of a pang in his heart.
0
But it’s not good to hide the secret in his heart. Talk about it to Alice is probably the best choice, right?
0
The time came to the end of December, and the next week was New Year’s Day.
0
“So Dr. Lingus,” Diana’s voice took on a rare hint of nervousness, and Roland took her hand, “please tell us the conclusion.”
0
In the plainly decorated briefing room, there sat Roland, Diana, Ghingham, and Harry. These four are the highest level of the entire moon, and all of them are also in the know about the black technology. About the black technology, according to Ghingham, there were not only TurnA, but also some other things, but Ade is not their “own people” after all, so he will not complain about anything.
0
“All the research in the past few months has been done entirely for Moonlight Butterfly.” Ade stood in front of the screen and explained, “My ultimate goal was to get the performance, principles and countermeasures of Moonlight Butterfly. First is the performance, based on the tests and calculations, TurnA has so much engine power.”
0
A long list of zeros appeared on the screen, and all of those present were familiar with MS-related data. They couldn’t help but suck in a breath of air when they saw so many zeros.
0
“The power system of Moonlight Butterfly is currently undecipherable. In the extreme case, with the sun as the center, Moonlight Butterfly’s coverage area just reaches Jupiter, which also happens to be the boundary of the human activity range. It makes it hard to believe that by chance. As soon as someone turns Moonlight Butterfly on to maximum power, all human civilization will be destroyed.”
0
Ade couldn’t help but look at Roland. Roland was unaware of Moonlight Butterfly’s extreme power back then. What kind of restraint did he have to destroy only one fleet when his homeland was violated? Roland noticed his sight and smiled at him. By the way, Roland seems to be particularly fond of smiling, and smiling is particularly nice, unlike someone who is expressionless all day long.
0
“TurnA’s Moonlight Butterfly is achieved through some kind of nanobots that can self-proliferate, while TurnA’s self-repair function and its own function of not being eroded by Moonlight Butterfly are also achieved by nanobots. These three kinds of nanobots are actually the same robots in different programs with different performances. And the principle of it-” Ade paused for a moment, his eyes skimming over the four big guys, “I don’t get it at all.”
0
For a moment, he thought Harry was going to rush up and punch him. It was NT’s intuition, probably not a delusion.
0
“Even if I don’t understand at all what the formula stands for, morphing back and forth to bring in can sometimes spell out the correct answer.” But he just can’t resist trying to sell a story, “What I did is countless times more complicated than this, but the principle is the same. All in all, I did something that I know I don’t understand. Here I would like to thank your Highness Roland for the inspiration.”
0
Roland politely nodded, but his bewildered expression betrayed him.
0
“I used-” a big ellipsis appeared on the screen, “a method that would take hours to explain and I don’t know if you can understand it. Anyway, I managed to separate the nanobots and make them think they are still on TurnA. The program to trigger Moonlight Butterfly is encrypted in TurnA, so these nanobots can’t be used for that, but the other two functions are automatic functions that don’t require a trigger medium.”
0
“That means we have the means to counteract Moonlight Butterfly?”
0
“Equipment equipped with this nanobot can slowly repair itself and is completely unaffected by Moonlight Butterfly.” Ade nodded to Diana gratefully, it seems that everyone listened carefully, “but unfortunately, the nanobots still have a high energy requirement, if it’s equipped on an MS, the MS must use nuclear power. My results are the above, although it is a meager output, it is better than nothing, right?”
0
“This is the best New Year’s gift I’ve ever received.” Diana stood up and shook Ade’s hand, revealing a bright smile. It was the first time Ade had ever seen her smile. Roland and Ghingham also stood up excitedly to express their gratitude.
0
“Well, I have another request,” it should not be too much to mention this at this kind of time, right? “Can I make a copy of the nanobots?”
0
“Of course you can.” Roland answered without hesitation, “No one is more qualified than you.”

Today is the last day of the cosmic century 0084 years, the TV is broadcasting a boring New Year’s party, in which none of the hosts and stars Ade knows. What is the point of watching this kind of program full of strangers? Ade and C.C. sat side by side on the sofa. He absentmindedly thought about what happened during the day in the hangar, and did not listen to a single word on the TV.
0
“This is the first time we spent New Year’s together, right?” C.C.’s voice pulled him back to reality, “What are you thinking?”
0
“I have to leave a month, and Alice is not too happy,” The nanobots were finally equipped on Inle today. “I upgraded a new equipment for her after a good deal of time to coax her happy.”
0
“
 coax her happy,” C.C. repeated inaudibly.
0
“Ten! Nine! Eight! Seven 
” It was already the New Year’s countdown, and a sense of detachment came over Ade’s heart as he watched the noisy group of people on TV – it was their New Year, not mine.
0
“The livelyness is theirs, I have nothing.” Some words tumbled into his mind from the depths of his memory, and he unconsciously whispered them out in Chinese.
0
“
 one! Zero! Happy New Year!” The noisy shouting drowned out his own voice. Oh, I hope C.C. didn’t hear it. He was about to go to see her expression when she suddenly stood up.
0
“Go to bed early, it’s past twelve.” C.C. grabbed the pillow and walked to her room, “Or do you have the habit of staying up all night on New Year’s?”
0
“I don’t usually spend New Year’s Eve.” He turned off the TV and the room went silent for a moment, as if the buzz from earlier was all fake.
0
“Oh, yeah?” C.C. stood inside the door and said expressionlessly, “Happy New Year and good night.”
0
There was a snap and the door was closed.
0
“Happy New Year 
”
0
Ade sat on the couch for a while longer and finally decided to sleep with nothing to do. I shouldn’t watch the New Year’s Eve party with her. It would have been better to go to bed at ten o’clock.
0
One clock in the morning.
0
The light from the side of his face woke him up, and Ade subconsciously tried to reach out to turn off the lamp on the bedside table, but he couldn’t move as if there was something heavy on him. He opened his eyes in a daze and saw C.C. sitting on top of him, still wearing her nightgown. What is this? Life talk?
0
“Is it really a dream?”
0
“Not really.”
0
“What are you doing in the middle of the night?” Ade was still a bit half asleep and confused, “My C.C. can’t be this cute?”
0
“Haven’t you noticed that we’re missing a line this year?” C.C. gently leaned down and whispered in his ear, the warmth of her breath made his head tingle and his sleepiness disappear all of a sudden. “Or are you retarded to this point?”
0
What line? He wasn’t in the habit of memorizing C.C. quotes, so who knew about this? He reasoned as he tried to go through his memory. The words she says every year, could it be

0
“
!” Ade swallowed the non-existent spittle, “You can’t attack at night this year
 this surprisingly is a foreshadowing?”
0
“At least take the initiative at times like this.” C.C. face showed a seductive expression. Her merald green long hair scattered randomly, and her golden pupils in the dim bedside lamp reflected a demonic luster. Her usually cold voice line sounded extra seductive at the moment, “I’ll leave it to you?”
