Now, he was simply using a legitimate neural interface to transmit Viola’s computational power.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His idea was simple: use himself as a bridge to connect to the Black Star Forge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aside from this, he could think of only two alternatives: building an AI computer inside the Black Star Forge or directly placing Viola inside. This was the first time the Mechanical Heart had such a demand, so Lin Xian wasn’t sure—thus he devised what seemed like a multi-benefit solution.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Here, Lin Xian directly connected the neural supercomputing port through the power armor’s neural interaction port, then took a deep breath and looked at Viola.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Begin.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【I cannot read your memory core before your full consciousness is uploaded, so I cannot directly convert the information in your brain.】 Viola replied.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It’s fine. Just disable your system’s computational permissions. I’ll handle the rest myself.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Viola understands.】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Lin Xian, are you sure this is safe?” Kiki asked, her eyes filled with skepticism.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Xian gave her a glance, then let his consciousness sink into the Black Star Forge. The vast stellar space hummed with full-capacity construction sequences; hundreds of newly manufactured drones floated in perfect formation, their energy fully charged, awaiting Lin Xian’s command.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Should be about ready…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Xian glanced at his mechanical manufacturing proficiency. After a full day of maximum-load manufacturing—including constant material-space conversion—his proficiency had skyrocketed. At this moment, he didn’t care about stamina or need; he had only one goal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Swish!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Max out the proficiency!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mechanical Manufacturing: 6 (4965\u002F5000) — Construction Efficiency Increased\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Just a little more.” Lin Xian lifted his head toward the automated manufacturing sequence. Vast quantities of materials poured in with precise order. His heart tightened inexplicably—this tension surpassed even the moment his Mechanical Heart had upgraded and awakened. He wasn’t just worried whether the neural interface would succeed; more than that, he was intensely curious about this mechanical construct that had no place in human technological history.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His mind kept drumming, and he urgently wanted to confirm with the Phoenix Society once he obtained the blueprint. What he truly wanted to understand—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>was the mystery of his own Mechanical Heart!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Beep!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ant-7” Nanometer 3D Printing Construction Robot completed. Mechanical Manufacturing Proficiency +15.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As one drone finished manufacturing, Lin Xian’s Mechanical Manufacturing proficiency finally leveled up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Congratulations. Your Mechanical Manufacturing Proficiency has risen to Lv.7.】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Oo~ hiss hiss!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the holographic screen appeared, a heavy mechanical clang suddenly echoed. Above the Forge’s space, a new construction sequence activated. Energy beams surged, and a complex, intricate automated production line materialized from thin air—green framework lines forming, then rapidly solidifying into physical devices: lasers, 3D construction units, and more. The dense network of automated pathways looked unreal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Finally…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, Lin Xian’s breath grew heavier. The Mechanical Heart and Mechanical Manufacturing were both achieved. Now, if only computational power could be successfully connected, the R&D Center could open!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without hesitation, he pulled up the blueprint for the Interstellar Predator XR01 powered armor and uploaded it to the R&D Center. Simultaneously, he pressed the activation key on the power armor’s neural supercomputing interface.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Oo!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instantly, a faint electric current surged through him, accompanied by a dizzying, heat-filled pressure at the top of his skull. It felt as if concrete had been poured directly into his skull—he nearly lost his breath. The Black Star Forge space shuddered, as if his consciousness itself was violently trembling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hold on, hold on, hold on!!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Xian jerked his neck back, floating in the Forge’s space, eyes wide as he fought to stabilize his chaotic consciousness. Yet just one second later, the dizziness vanished entirely, replaced by Viola’s crisp voice echoing through the Forge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Neural connection established. Latency nearly zero. Congratulations. The plan is viable.】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Of course—I’ve already tested it with Flash Bullets and Grace.” Lin Xian’s pupils glowed with supercomputing blue light. His entire mind felt like a fireworks display. After connecting to Viola’s computational core, he realized his thoughts had accelerated a hundred millionfold. Merely glancing at the Infinity far away, a single thought instantly generated the full mathematical solution simulating its flight out of the atmosphere, orbiting Earth, and returning!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He hadn’t even consciously tried. Yet the moment a question arose, the answer appeared instantly in his mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Damn. Is this what supercomputing power feels like?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The overwhelming computational power transformed Lin Xian into a powerful data perspective. In milliseconds, he linked to all 3,289 drones under Viola’s control and every subsystem of the Skytrain. In this state, Lin Xian and Viola became one—he could now control every drone as effortlessly as his own limbs, processing all drone surveillance feeds simultaneously without a hint of dizziness. Instead, he felt a terrifying, absolute sense of control.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As if he were the Creator’s perspective.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“...We should’ve done this long ago. This is what a Mechanical Lord should feel like—commanding an entire army. But it’s not too late.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Cough, cough—I’m thinking so fast now. Hua Xiaoling? From her sudden appearance and our conversation, I instantly conceived 9,651 possibilities. Hmm. Combining my knowledge of Hua Xiaoling, analyzing Qing Shui Town: 985. Then pulling all Phoenix Society intelligence on the Descent Sect: 12. Alright, so many details I missed. But now, back to business.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Viola, allocate me at least 6,000 qubits of computational space.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【You previously linked to Grace using neural consciousness combined with dark energy fluctuations. Flash Bullets’ consciousness link cannot be effectively computed. But you’re directly accessing my quantum core for consciousness computation—this completely violates the Consciousness Decoding Protocol, since your consciousness remains biological and hasn’t been uploaded to the network.】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I know. The formats are different. But right now, I don’t care.” Lin Xian’s focus was entirely on the R&D Center. He looked utterly transformed—radiant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Initiating Planetary-Level R&D. Requires 6,000 qubits of computational input. Confirm connection.】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Connect. Begin R&D.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Connection successful.】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hollow!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, a massive roar erupted. Lin Xian realized the Starway of the Black Star Forge was violently trembling. Standing midair, he immediately sensed the entire Starway shifting position.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He turned toward the Starway’s end. Where once there had been a dark abyss, countless stars now streaked past. He instantly understood—the Black Star Forge was acting like a cosmic telescope, adjusting its orientation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Adjusting orientation?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Could the Black Star Forge not be some kind of subspace… but an actual spatial coordinate?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Xian frowned. Instantly, Viola’s response echoed in his mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Absolute cosmic positioning requires three things: first, anisotropy of the cosmic microwave background as a natural coordinate system; second, standard candles like Type Ia supernovae for distance scaling; third, gravitational wave events for independent spatial benchmarks. If you intend to establish spatial positioning, construct a radio telescope, a Pandax-4T liquid xenon detector, and a gravitational sensor…】\u003C\u002Fp>",1157,"2026-06-19T18:20:07.351Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","08925e578eccbab6d22ff94453632a51652c46ff8cf8041beec62b8470f822d5","apocalypse-i-built-an-infinite-train-chapter-497","apocalypse-i-built-an-infinite-train-chapter-495",541,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fapocalypse-i-built-an-infinite-train-cover.jpg"]
