Resurrection Empire-Chapter 1038 - 404: The Solution to Breaking the Deadlock

Once again choosing self-destruction, Ren Zhong trembled all over, and time reverted to a month ago, appearing in a brightly lit hall at the center of Military Industry City.

At this moment, he was sitting beside Ying Hao.

"...As I said, just as you have heard, Source Star Military Industry officially declares war on the Mengdu Group! Starting now!"

Ying Hao had just finished his war declaration and pushed Ren Zhong, the newly appointed Chief of Staff, to the forefront.

Ren Zhong slowly stood up, recalling what he had said in this scene in the previous timeline.

He not only needed to maintain consistent wording but also had to strive to preserve the consistency of tone.

"The actions of the Mengdu Group threaten not only the Desolates but every human on Source Star..."

About five minutes later, Ren Zhong finished this passage and announced the adjournment, then returned to Ying Hao's operations command room. 𝙧𝙚𝙚𝔀𝒆𝓫𝓷𝙤𝓿𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝙤𝓶

Two hours later, the first combat meeting of Source Star Military Industry concluded. In the meeting, Ying Hao unveiled a massive army of three hundred million, and Ren Zhong also officially announced the inclusion of the Starfire Army.

At the precise moments when Ren Zhong began speaking, the tone used, and the words spoken, everything was identical to the previous timeline.

The real change occurred after Ren Zhong returned to his villa in Military Industry City.

In the previous timeline, at this time, Ren Zhong had spent a significant amount of time absorbing and digesting Ying Hao's military deployment, hoping to quickly form a complete concept in his mind to better fulfill his role as Chief of Staff.

No need this time.

He pulled out a piece of paper, took out a pen, and began handwriting his thoughts.

Known condition one: The Frozen Elders control an absolutely overwhelming power, once they appear, they can undoubtedly crush the entire scene with absolute dominance.

Known condition two: If the current situation is maintained, the Frozen Elders will undoubtedly appear on schedule in thirty days and forcibly end the war.

Known condition three: Once it's determined that things are hopeless, Li Yang will choose cryogenic sleep, remaining dormant until before the great migration, and transfer indirect control of the Mengdu Group and Source Star Military Industry into his hands.

...

Goal to be achieved one: Stop Li Yang from covertly orchestrating a meaningless meat grinder war.

Goal two: Have Li Yang go to sleep and secretly take over the Mengdu Group and Source Star Military Industry.

...

Optimal solution: Find the Frozen Elders in advance, gain their trust, terminate the war early, and publicly disclose the objective fact that the Frozen Elders can no longer reappear, dispelling Li Yang's thoughts, and lure him into sleep.

...

Difficulty: Locating the hiding place of the old popsicles.

...

Solution to break the difficulty: Repeated time reconstruction, compressing time, catalyzing a technological explosion, enhancing Ren's group's pseudo-network computing power. Then use the foreknowledge of the precise time when the old popsicles activate external communications to crack their encryption algorithm, invade the address domain set by the Frozen Elders in the electromagnetic communication network, bypass the disguise of virtual camouflage addresses, and ultimately complete the location.

This is the entirety of Ren Zhong's plan, with the core idea still being time compression.

The premise of all this is that he judged the Frozen Elders' encryption algorithm to be crackable.

He had previously worked at Deep Communication Group and served as the leader of an algorithm team under Ma Xiaocheng, familiar with the programming philosophy of Deep Communication Group.

The programming philosophy of Deep Communication Group was inevitably rooted in the Ma's ancestors of the Deep Communication Group.

By programmer logic, the encryption algorithm mastered by the Frozen Elders must also be inherited.

Assuming the "network" still exists and the encryption algorithm can be supported by the "network." Then, with unlimited network computing power support, the encryption algorithm is invincible and flawless.

Now that the "network" is gone, the encryption algorithm of the Frozen Elders can no longer receive infinite chaotic computing power support, naturally leaving it vulnerable to attack.

With all sorts of complex thoughts, Ren Zhong pulled Hua Yuelan and Sun Miao into the same chat room in the "Dream Network" and announced an important decision.

"Bring all the residents of the Underground City into the pseudo-network plan."

Sun Miao and Hua Yuelan were shocked, exclaiming in unison, "What!"

Sun Miao added a sentence, "Are you out of your mind? It's two hundred million people! They joined you because they trust you, what are you thinking!"

Ren Zhong paused for a moment and then slowly said, "Brother Sun, I can't explain it clearly to you. But we must get more computing power now."

Sun Miao: "You're betraying them!"

Ren Zhong: "Brother Sun, is this the first day you've known me?"

Sun Miao: "Hmm?"

"If I tell you that today's betrayal is for tomorrow's salvation, do you believe it? Have you forgotten what Sun Ai once told you, my true secret?"

Sun Miao was momentarily stunned, finally changing his tone, "Alright. I am somewhat confused now, but you're right, I should indeed trust you unconditionally."

"Good to know."

Afterward, Ren Zhong said to Hua Yuelan: "You once developed the encryption algorithm supporting Dream Inn within Deep Communication Group. Now you have also become a top programmer in the Revival Plan with my help, standing almost at the pinnacle of Source Star programmers. But now, we have a new challenge."

Hua Yuelan: "What?"

...

When Ren Zhong told her she must, with the support of the pseudo-network, break through the Frozen Elders' information network defense single-handedly in a month, she shook her head repeatedly, "Impossible, absolutely impossible. Even though the real 'network' is gone now, those old zombies still hold Imperial-level alien technology. Also, the time you've given is too short, one month, don't joke—it's impossible even if the number of people making pseudo-net is increased to two billion."

Ren Zhong interrupted Hua Yuelan, "When I say try, just try. In the upcoming war, I will figure out ways to get you more resources and bring more captives. Just experiment without restraint. Whatever technical support you lack, tell me, and I'll find a way to get it for you. As for turning the impossible into possible in the end, I'll make that step."

Though her rational mind told Hua Yuelan that Ren Zhong was daydreaming.

But over time, she had established complete trust in Ren Zhong.

After pondering for a moment, Hua Yuelan helplessly sighed, "Alright, let's do it."

After explaining these things to the two individuals, Ren Zhong felt a sense of relief but also sighed.

He knew that he was becoming increasingly sinister and unscrupulous due to his ability to reset time.

This was not his original intention, but the fact remained.

Two days later, when Ren Zhong formally took over Ying Hao's position and became the highest commander, Hua Yuelan told him she needed an internal secret of Deep Communication Group, also a necessary textbook for Level Nine Actuarial Programmers to complete their advancement.

After thinking briefly, Ren Zhong decided to temporarily leave his post and took Xiao Xingyue to Shendu City.

This time, he came to kidnap and hold Ma Xiaocheng hostage.
