I, a ship girl, am the savior of civilization.

Yunxi's cry of "Sister Laura" made Laura feel as if she had returned to the moment they first met: "Sister has inherited the will, and Astra will also try her best to help sister."

"This is already the best possible outcome. We can rest now."

"Please tell Lord Noah that we do not blame her. Even we did not expect the Noah civilization to develop to this extent, so please do not feel guilty, Lord Noah."

"Besides, didn't Yunxi finally get to see Lord Noah return?"

Laura didn't speak, but just watched as Yunxi and the judge who had served as the background for the five chapters of the verdict completely disappeared, then nodded heavily.

Just like the Hyperion cleaner, the Rhodes Island doctor, the Chaldea Master, the Griffin Commander, etc., when you disappear without a trace, will there still be someone in the virtual world silently waiting for your return?

Who knows?

[STEP complete, Civilization directive issued]

[STEP 3: Initially, no one expected the truth about Noah's civilization to be like this. But fortunately, you steered everything in the best possible direction.]

[Noah's Universe main quest completed, worldview fully revealed. Reward: Civilization Commands *15]

[Branch Universe Summary: Prototype of a cosmic-level computing core, Noah's Dimensional Dock fully open, Civilization Commands*30, Mothership Intelligent "Noah" Pre-hull - Civilization Ark Ship]

This regrettable history, which would have been forever hidden somewhere in Noah's dimension, came to a perfect end at this moment.

It's time to wake up from this dream.

Um, did anyone understand this?

But it shouldn't matter if you didn't understand it.

Next, I'll return to my previous writing style. To avoid you not liking it, I've removed a long series of puzzle-solving elements that I originally designed, saving about ten chapters. However, since the foreshadowing and other elements are gone, the overall writing might feel too rushed.

Digging holes is so much fun!

90. Binary Virtualization Project

I opened my eyes, and the familiar ceiling came into view.

This is... Laura's bedroom on the Dawn?

"Hmm, so the Noah universe really wasn't separated from the Marvel universe after all?"

Recalling her previous experiences, Laura silently connected her consciousness to the Noah Dimension. The Noah Dimension shipyard, which had been mostly hidden by mist, was now fully revealed, resembling a massive warship.

The dock where the Dawn was previously moored was merely the ship's dock for the Ark Civilization ship.

Laura could even see the Dawn from the God-like perspective of the Supreme Link, see herself lying in her bedroom inside the Dawn observing the Noah's Dimension, and even see herself looking at herself through the Supreme Link...

Recalling what she gained in the Noah universe, Laura herself found it almost unbelievable.

Astra is building a virtual universe for the Noah dimension and the Dawn, which, once completed, will revolutionize the Dawn's computing power.

The prototype of a cosmic-level computing core, a technology comparable to that of the White Bear Bell Star Cluster.

At that time, Laura could also build a brand new virtual universe. If necessary, she could even learn from the Noah civilization and use the virtual universe to overwrite the real universe, creating a civilization online.

Without realizing it, it feels like the Elriel I used to fool others about might actually come true.

As for the Civilization Ark... this mothership has become the core of the Noah Dimension, and since it involves Noah's past, Laura won't have any thoughts about it for the time being.

When Laura is qualified and capable of piloting this mothership, which starts at Tier 7, Noah will naturally tell Laura.

"I don't know how long I've been gone this time."

Lying relaxed in bed, Laura compared the passage of time before and after the mission. Fortunately, the time flow in Noah's Dimension and the main Marvel Universe was not significantly different, and Laura did not miss the next major event.

It is now March 2012, two months before the Battle of New York.

Laura seemed to have already seen that the Mind Gem was within her grasp.

The Space Stone currently belongs to S.H.I.E.L.D., and Laura has no intention of forcibly taking it. However, the Mind Stone is in Loki's hands, and Loki is an intruder, so it's reasonable for Laura to take some spoils while stopping the Chitauri invasion.

Moreover, given Aerriel's relationship with Asgard, Odin probably wouldn't stop Aerriel from keeping the Infinity Stone.

After all, Odin knew long ago that the Infinity Stones, while bringing power, also brought disaster, just like the demon mask in Jackie Chan Adventures; putting them together would only bring calamity.

Furthermore, given that she already possessed the Space Bridge, the Space Stone's effect on Laura was indeed not as significant as that of the Mind Stone.

Space teleportation? As long as there are coordinates, the space bridge can operate across galaxies. The Dawn also carries a jump device that combines Nova Empire and Cybertronian technology.

Infinite energy? Not to mention that each Infinity Stone contains immeasurable energy, the star-level power source at the moment of the Bell Star Cluster was enough to power the Dawn up to the seventh-tier Blazing Sun hull.

In comparison, the Space Stone is indeed not as alluring as the Mind Stone.

Most importantly, the Infinity Stones are the embodiment of the rules of the Marvel Universe and can only be used within the Marvel Universe.

"It seems that the virtual universe is more important than the Battle of New York."

Even though the matter had come to an end, Laura never forgot the virtual universe that was nothing short of a miracle, a magnificent machine that far surpassed any giant structure.

The so-called virtual world is simply due to the different structure of the universe. If everything is digitized, and viewed in binary, octal, decimal, etc., it can also be considered virtual.

The system number used to construct this universe is what it is based on, and that system number is the reality.

This is also the key to how the virtual universe can overwrite the real universe. As long as you master number system conversion, you can fundamentally modify the structure of the universe.

In simpler terms, it's a clash of rules, where the rules of other universes are modified to suit one's own needs.

Previously, Laura and Belfast had noticed that the Marvel Universe's cosmological structure was binary.

Coincidentally, the cosmic modification technology that Astra possesses is also binary conversion.

Immediately, the exceptionally intelligent and wise Lady Laura came up with a brilliant idea.

Those dimensional demon programmers who spend all their time trying to eliminate bugs in the Marvel Universe, didn't they want Laura to input her soul into the Marvel universe?

Okay, let's just record Astra along with it and take over the entire universe.

The Marvel Cinematic Universe is an independent entity, and the danger within it is not as great as in other universes. The supreme AOO does not exist, so Laura can confidently and boldly engage in battle with the dimensional demons.

If successful, Laura will be crowned with the title of group leader, letting those demons who oppose her know what the power of authority is.

But until then, it's more comfortable to just be a lazy bum.

I spent seven whole chapters thinking about it; it was exhausting.

After sharing her ideas about the virtual universe with Belfast, Laura rolled around in the blankets until she was completely bound and unable to move before she could calm down.

(PS: This feeling is really great. Whenever I have the chance, I'll roll around in it a couple of times.)

This mission gave Laura an extra 30 Civilization Commands, which was an instant windfall, allowing her to fully prepare for the Battle of New York.

Of course, with the Shining Morning Star hull, repelling the Chitauri army would be no problem, but Laura wouldn't be satisfied with that.

What Laura really wants to do is travel through the wormhole and have a passionate and intense final battle with Thanos.

According to Laura herself, it was because "it had reached a point where even Laura herself didn't know how strong she was."

Since we're going to face a cosmic-level boss ahead of time, wouldn't it be too much to underestimate it if we didn't make some preparations?

The Supreme Armor gave Laura unprecedented defensive capabilities, while the attack power of the Dawn and its ship equipment was somewhat inconsistent.

Although the Star-Slaying Ship Blade was enhanced by the Hammer of the Prodigy and later incorporated special metals such as Uru Alloy, it can at best be considered a decent weapon, far from having the ability to deliver a decisive blow.

The Rainbow Bridge is powerful enough, but because it was originally designed as a planet-destroying weapon, even in ship-mounted mode, it can easily cause irreversible damage to the planet, making it difficult for Laura to find a use for the Rainbow Bridge.

Rainbow Bridge falls short in its ability to deal with people.

To be honest, sometimes Laura even thinks about renaming the Rainbow Bridge to Planetary Devastation.

Therefore, Laura needs a weapon specifically designed to counter individual power without causing serious environmental damage.

After glancing at the technology tree, Laura knew her goal.

Strategic Destructive Weapon: Neutron Annihilation

91. Neutron annihilation and reboot

[Shipborne Neutron Annihilation Generator: Based on the Stellar Neutron Annihilation technology, this mothership-mounted version has undergone several technological improvements. Even with greatly enhanced portability and flexibility, its power remains reliable.]

If your goal is simply to kill enemies rather than destroy terrain, then this technology is the best choice. Whether carbon-based, silicon-based, or nitrogen-based species, as long as their fundamental particles are larger than a neutron, neutron annihilation will be effective.

[Activation Cost: 10 Civilization Commands]

(PS: Neutron annihilation targets living organisms, but it is still indiscriminate killing. When you choose to bombard a habitable planet, don't expect other life forms on it to be unharmed. Ecosystem recovery also takes a long time.)

Activation confirmed!

A strange force swept over the Dawn once more, and on the Dawn's shuttle-shaped hull, the ship ring used to store the neutron beam gradually took shape and attached itself to the middle section of the Dawn.

With a thought, the ship ring that was originally bound to the Dawn slowly floated and unfolded, eventually circling the hull in sync. At the same time, the bow, which had been hiding the Rainbow Bridge, also connected with the ship ring, drawing energy from the Bell Star Cluster.

With a single command from Laura, Neutron Annihilation can fire a plume of neutron radiation in a predetermined direction, causing irreversible and devastating damage to the organism's tissues.

If the target is a habitable Gaia planet similar to Xandar, then this planet will remain apocalyptic and desolate for decades to come.

Even if the objective conditions suitable for life are not affected, a planet bombarded by neutrons will still require external intervention to rebuild a completely new ecosystem.

Similarly, small neutron annihilation devices appeared on Laura's ship equipment, and the transmission ring floating in the void behind her rose and fell with Laura's movements. Rather than a destructive weapon, it was more like a decoration.

"I always feel like I'm carrying the gates of heaven on my back."

Without realizing it, Laura remembered a sentence.

Forgiving you is God's job, and my job is to send you to meet God.

Considering Laura's current image... excellent, both in appearance and actual effect, it perfectly matches this statement!

Laura didn't care at all that a mere ten points of civilization command could bring her truth and justice.

Moreover, Noah Technology's neutron annihilation surpasses the original in every aspect. Now, the neutron annihilation on Laura can be long or short (referring to range), soft or hard (referring to neutron flux intensity), and coarse or fine (referring to bombardment range).

With her new toy in hand, if neutron extermination weren't specifically designed for living organisms, Laura would have even considered finding a target to shoot at.

Unfortunately, Laura is a staunch pacifist and would never resort to neutron extermination unless absolutely necessary.

Of course, if things really escalate to a full-scale war with other enemies, then Laura will definitely take action without hesitation. No matter who the opponent is, she'll first use a Rainbow Bridge version of Earthburst Star and neutron bombs to annihilate them with a single shot.

Being inside the Dawn, with its firepower capable of withstanding several Imperial fleets, gave Laura an extremely reassuring sense of security, and a deep feeling of happiness welled up from the bottom of her heart.

Next, all that's left is to wait for Loki to deliver the Mind Stone to our door.
