3 Chapter 3 Collapsed Tony_1

Sophon.

It's a technological product manufactured by the Trisolarans that ordinary people can hardly imagine.

By technically unfolding a proton into two dimensions and then modifying it, they created a particle akin to an intelligent computer that can perform communication, reconnaissance, disrupt particle accelerators, and other tasks.

Sophons can even exchange information across star systems and light-years through quantum entanglement.

Its speed is incredibly fast, capable of orbiting Earth seven times in a second without expending any energy, and can monitor any event occurring on Earth at any given time.

At this moment, the sophon altered its form, operating a mimic robot as it approached Logic, its face bearing a complex expression, with a hint of fear and disbelief.

This was also how all Trisolarans were feeling!

Because they had discovered something: they were unable to monitor Logic, and the only entity capable of this was another sophon.

Which meant that Logic must have another sophon in his possession.

But how could that be possible?

They reviewed Logic's recent actions and suddenly realized he was doing something that terrified all Trisolarans.

Logic was studying sophons and had even made some progress.

This was beyond the Trisolarans' imagination.

So they sent a sophon to ask him.

Of course, Logic would never admit it; he outright denied it, "What I'm studying isn't a sophon, but a barrier!"

He subconsciously glanced in front of him, and a faint screen of light appeared, a screen that only he could see.

Upon seeing the word "copy".

Logic couldn't help but feel the urge to complain. It said copy, but actually...

Heh~

Facing what Logic had said, anyone would know he was lying through his teeth, yet the sophon in front of him nodded, harboring no doubt whatsoever, and then turned away as if everything was just child's play.

Logic was quite calm.

He had been in contact with sophons for quite some time since he chose to join the Three-Body and entered the Three-Body game, at which point, sophons started interacting with him.

Simply because he replicated the talent of a mathematician named Wei Cheng and proposed a solution to the Three-Body Problem within the game, instantly drawing the Trisolarans' attention.

How strong was Wei Cheng?

The world's top mathematicians, when discussing the Three-Body Problem, could only come up with seven or eight solutions, whereas he, doodling casually, presented hundreds of solutions through the effort of one person.

It was as if all people, who knows how many generations of mathematicians, were arduously proving that one plus one equals two, while he had already offered dozens of proofs.

The gap was that exaggerated!

Why does this guy still have hair?

He should be bald!

Damn!

The reason why the sophon believed Logic so easily and left was due to two reasons.

First, the Trisolarans were extremely confident; they had locked down Earth's fundamental science and technology, and even if Logic had made some progress in studying sophons, he couldn't surpass them, especially since he had only learned a little bit.

And second.

The Trisolarans were all honest folks.

Good ol' honest people, the kind that can't lie, are real simpletons with hearts of gold.

They could easily access each other's memories and thoughts among companions, so there was no such thing as lies, which was also the reason behind the implementation of the Wallfacer Project in the future.

Alas.

There would probably be no more Wallfacers in the future.

As the new boss of ETO, Logic couldn't just sit back and watch someone else take over his stronghold, which was a juicy, fat pile of assets.

He had already gotten hold of all the ETO's information, that is, assets worth 160 billion US dollars. After all, Trisolaran technology was so advanced that even their discarded, unwanted bits could easily make a killing on Earth.

Especially the Three-Body VR game, that virtual reality technology was just mind-blowing. Frankly, if they got serious about technology, about virtual reality, they could effortlessly buy Earth and pay salaries to all Earthlings.

Foolish Earthlings!

I, a Trisolaran, declare that I shall enslave you! You must work your asses off for us for two hours each day, earning only a thousand US dollars in wages. You must work at least two days a week, and you can take a maximum of fifty days off per year.

Tremble!

I am going to exploit you ruthlessly!

Aside from the initial one trillion US dollars, there were the more insane elites from various industries invited by Evans, who, frankly, were all top figures in the scientific community. You could just take the Nobel Prize list and call out their names.

For these top experts in the science community, nothing was more tempting than even more cutting-edge technology and advanced scientific concepts.

That feeling.

It's like a lifelong single solo, fighting wits with his left and right guardians for decades, suddenly setting eyes upon a bewitchingly charming yet pure older sister. It's hard not to be moved.

Logic felt that, perhaps in a moment's thought, he could even become the president of the Beautiful Country, effortlessly wage world wars, basically starting at a point that stood above the protagonists of almost all urban novels. A point so high that they wouldn't even dare dream or write about.

But that didn't matter.

In the face of the Trisolarans, it was still useless.

Logic fell into deep thought. His Penguin System could copy other people's technological abilities and materialize tech products through Energy Points. Now that he had the ETO, he wasn't short on Energy Points, but it was still futile.

No matter how much Trisolaran technology he copied, it was still useless against the Trisolarans, at best buying him a few more days of resistance. The thought of eliminating them was nothing more than a pipe dream!

What he needed wasn't copying.

It was innovation!

And that was the hardest part!

Earth was under the surveillance of the Trisolarans.

Earth's basic theoretical foundations had been locked down.

Logic thought for a moment, his gaze shifting to the Marvel Universe that had not been unlocked yet. His eyes narrowed, "I need a smart brain..."

"I need you!"

"Tony Shit Stark!"

...

Marvel.

Tony felt a million 'fuck yous' thundering across his mind. At this moment, he felt like eating shit, though certainly, he had no such fetish; it was just a way to describe his feelings.

He was originally discussing the mysteries of life with Victoria's secret cover girl when his vision became peppered with a barrage of bullet comments.

"Tsk tsk, pretty pale!"

"Feels a bit powerless."

"More power!"

"Isn't this a bit weak?"

Fuck!

I, Tony Stark, am the bravest and toughest man in the world!

I am not impotent!

I'm not a kidney-deficient boy!
