Near the Imperial Star Circle defense line, inside a triangular cone-shaped fortress.
The vast auditorium echoed with thunderous applause. Hundreds of mid-level officers from various departments of the Imperial Army stood up at the same time, staring with burning eyes at the Imperial Hero, the Imperial Military Ambassador, the Imperial Royal Knight Commander, and the Imperial Diva who had just finished their speeches.
Fiancé, Major General Hanton.
Yang Ming clenched his fist and waved, turned around and walked towards the back of the stage.
The applause lasted for more than ten seconds before it gradually stopped, and the real instructor of the tactics course took the stage on the other side.
As soon as Yang Ming returned to the entrance of the lounge, he was blocked by Lieutenant General Thomas before he could go in.
"Oh, Hanton," the lieutenant general smiled, "I just received the news that we are going to attend an unveiling ceremony."
Yang Ming swallowed and said, "Let me drink some tea! General, I gave three speeches in a row and my lips are almost broken!"
"Ha ha ha ha!"
Thomas put his arm around Yang Ming's shoulders and pushed him towards the corridor.
Yang Ming didn't even dare to struggle.
Mainly because he was afraid that if he struggled a little harder, Lieutenant General Thomas would break his hand.
A female assistant wearing a military uniform skirt hurried over to the side and handed over the tea respectfully. Yang Ming opened the bottle and took two sips. He felt... the water handed over by this young lady was really sweet.
"What unveiling?"
"It's said to be an unveiling ceremony, but it's actually an internal verification meeting," Lieutenant General Thomas looked around and said in a low voice, "Emperor Guard 2.0."
Yang Ming laughed: "Are you sure this new system can be used better than the old system?"
Lieutenant General Thomas pondered for a few times: "I am cautiously pessimistic."
"Why?"
"We still don't understand how this supercomputing system maintains stability," Lieutenant General Thomas sighed, "Emperor Guard 2.0 has gone through hundreds of experiments in the past few years, and we have encountered several very difficult problems.
."
Yang Ming blinked and tried to be a good listener.
Lieutenant General Thomas continued:
“The biggest problem is that this system is easily overwhelmed by the sudden burst of information flow.
"When we connect this system to the network of more than five thousand battleships, or more than thirty planets, it will easily collapse and be unable to maintain its stability at all, let alone call the shipboard servers and supercomputers of these battleships.
"Alas, our current technology is not as good as it was tens of thousands of years ago. Are we always regressing?"
Yang Ming nodded for a while.
Is such that.
The principles and laws from Omnic Twilight are two huge bugs.
He smiled and said: "Maybe there are some ingenious and original designs that have not been paid attention to by us."
"You guessed it," Lieutenant General Thomas raised his eyebrows. "After our nationwide scientific research and investigation, we discovered a very critical issue, that is... the anthropomorphism of this system."
"Personification?"
"Let's talk on board," Lieutenant General Thomas said warmly, which was considered a small concession.
More than ten minutes later, the battleship the two were on and more than twenty escort ships entered the nearby jump zone and continued towards the vast territory of the empire.
Lieutenant General Thomas pulled Yang Ming into a small room and continued to mutter about the Imperial Guard system.
The Empire has poured an astronomical amount of resources and manpower into Imperial Guard 2.0.
This system has been secretly developed for a long time, dating back hundreds of years, but it has always been used as a technical verification of the 'Empire's entire territory defense system'. - By recreating a similar system, the core technology of the Imperial Guard system can be understood.
In recent years, the Imperial Guard system has frequently lost response, and the empire has felt a strong crisis, so it decided to officially launch this project.
As Lieutenant General Thomas said, the new system designed by the Empire achieved good results in the initial small-scale verification.
However, when connected to a larger network, the system became fragile, collapsed on itself, and even burned down the expensive hardware network several times.
"What's the problem?"
Boss Yang asked very sincerely and knowingly.
"I don't know the specifics, I can only give a general explanation," Lieutenant General Thomas clicked his tongue, "I'm just a battle formation commander, you can't expect me to figure out how many parts the tools I use are made up of.
I just heard that there is a problem with the anthropomorphism of the system."
"personification?"
"Yes, it seems to be the self-protection function of the internal network."
Lieutenant General Thomas said slowly:
“When a system works strictly in accordance with program logic, it will treat the instructions we input as the highest priority. When it is overloaded, it can only provide feedback through the program language, resulting in a certain delay.
"This delay is the key to the collapse of the entire system.
"Also, it doesn't mean that the more servers you connect to the Internet, the more amazing the computing power will be. How to coordinate these servers and use the computing power of all hardware systems in an instant is a greater challenge."
Yang Ming wondered: "Then what? What is the solution?"
Lieutenant General Thomas sighed: "Anthropomorphism...heh, to put it bluntly, it is an omnimachine."
"Omnic?"
"To be precise, it's a complete mastermind thinking," Lieutenant General Thomas shook his head. "This sounds crazy, right? We need to connect our command system to an omnic. If this omnic controls how many of us
Thousands or even tens of thousands of warships, and then turning around and betraying the empire, that would be the biggest disaster."
Yang Ming leaned back.
Artificial omnics are not the same as the mechanical thinking bodies of high-dimensional civilizations.
The hidden danger mentioned by Lieutenant General Thomas is almost 50% likely to occur for artificial intelligent machines.
Yang Ming said: "Isn't this too unreliable?"
"So, they want you to come over." Lieutenant General Thomas picked up the cup on the side and walked to the drinks machine. "I know you are very tired. You have been running around in the past few months. The committee
You are the most diligent among us, and of course, you have been commended by His Majesty, who did not even bother to mention our names."
Yang Ming narrowed his eyes and smiled.
Is the old general jealous?
"What could I have done? I was a space infantryman."
Thomas continued: "Who knows what weird things they have in their heads? They fed Imperial Guard 2.0 with a bunch of your information, which should be to tell the omnic - have you seen this guy? If you
After betraying the empire, this guy can dismantle your mastermind into a bunch of parts... That's it."
Yang Ming:……
High-end research projects often require the simplest threats.
crumbs.
…
In Ritsu's thinking space, two girls sat cross-legged in front of a 'square box projector', eating snacks and watching the live broadcast.
"Omnic Imperial Guard 2.0?"
Molly tilted her head and asked:
"No. 2, is the empire messing around? You and Li are not omnics. You are creatures born from mechanical civilization. I can feel that we have very intuitive differences.
"They shouldn't be self-defeating and get themselves involved, right?"
"Probably not," Ritsuya was a little unsure, "The empire's heritage cannot be underestimated. This omnic may be different."
Molly whispered: "I always feel a little unreliable."
"Just keep watching," Lu chuckled, "Now no one dares to check on the boss, we can peep openly... You just called No. 2 again, right?"
"No, Sister Lu, I keep shouting like this."
Molly showed an innocent smile.
Lu rolled his eyes: "Be careful, I can't deal with you, why can't I deal with you?"
"Single bet~"
"Bah, hahaha! You are so annoying!"
The laughter in the thinking space becomes more and more unrestrained.
…
Although not many people attended the unveiling ceremony of Imperial Guard 2.0, there were quite a few imperial bosses there.
Yang Ming and Thomas, one represents the emperor, and the other represents the "young and strong" faction of the military. - The reason why Lieutenant General Thomas cannot be promoted in military rank is because he is not old enough.
But the two of them could only sit in the second row of the auditorium.
The dozen or so seats in the first row are all reserved for the elite and powerful faction of the Sherman family.
The unveiling ceremony was arranged inside a confidential research institute, located underground in an inconspicuous little administrative star.
Yang Ming and Thomas occasionally chatted and joked, and occasionally discussed explosive weapons to deal with the Zerg.
Young people and middle-aged men in white coats kept appearing and waiting quietly. When Yang Ming turned his head and looked over, they immediately stepped forward and asked Yang Ming to sign their autograph or take a photo with them.
Yang Ming refused to refuse anyone who came, fully expressing his respect for these scientific research talents.
Gradually, the small venue was filled with people. Several representatives from the two major power agencies, the Imperial Military Department and the Council of Elders, came. Two middle-aged women from the Tentacles organization did not know when they appeared in the corner of the venue.
In the middle of the venue, staff in white coats began to install thick pieces of special glass to form a transparent glass room, and began to move some hardware equipment inside.
Those devices are a bit like a shipboard master brain...
"Your wife is here," Lieutenant General Thomas said suddenly.
Yang Ming looked up at the entrance, and that familiar figure came into his eyes.
The imperial singer's hairstyle today is an exquisite updo, which makes her fair neck look even longer. On her charming face that has fascinated thousands of boys in the empire, a pair of thick sunglasses covers her pair of hair that can send messages.
The bright eyes of radio waves.
Daphne pays great attention to her figure management. Even if she is wearing a gray windbreaker, her tall and slender figure can still make the men present unable to take their eyes away for a while.
Because of his busy work schedule, Yang Ming hasn't slept with Daphne for a while - it's just a sleeping relationship.
When Daphne saw Yang Ming, she immediately took off her glasses, a slight smile bloomed at the corner of her mouth, and the rhythm of the high heels under her feet became much faster. Regardless of the staff's guidance, she walked straight to Yang Ming.
.
Boss Yang also considered it a favor, stood up and opened his hands.
Daphne immediately moved forward and hugged Yang Ming's waist.
"I didn't expect you to come here," Yang Ming said warmly, "Long time no see, my dear."
"You are too busy at work," Daphne complained softly, and then placed a soft kiss on Yang Ming's cheek.
The two acted like a couple in love.
Lieutenant General Thomas looked on with a smile.
"Will your uncle come over?" Yang Ming asked.
"They will probably attend by projection," Daphne said softly. "My uncle hopes you will give some feedback. Regarding the Imperial Guard 2.0 system, they feel a little uneasy."
Yang Ming nodded: "I'm not an expert in this profession either."
"You also have a strong technical team behind you, don't you?"
Daphne blinked slightly, with a hint of smile in her eyes.
Yang Ming immediately understood her subtext.
Director Ino wanted him to contribute his technical team or make some contributions.
Yang Ming smiled and said: "They are my last trump card."
The implication is that he cannot hand over the technical team yet. He needs to wait for "Faya's Game" to end and his home planet to "settle".
Daphne did not stay long. After saying hello to Lieutenant General Thomas, she went to the corner of the first row below.
As soon as Daphne sat down, dozens of intersecting rays appeared in the field, and the projections of more than a dozen grandparents appeared at the door, filling the first row silently, including Director Ino.
Lieutenant General Thomas touched Yang Ming with his elbow, and the two looked at each other, each showing a somewhat tacit smile.
The unveiling ceremony began soon.
The ceremony was presided over by three gray-haired scientific researchers.
They introduced the development process of Imperial Guard 2.0 and the results of dozens of recent experiments, and spent most of their time introducing the 'safety omni-machine structure' they designed.
The so-called safe omni-machine structure is actually, to put it bluntly, two very simple methods.
First, Boss Yang’s one-click headshot system.
Put a self-destruct device on the hardware and immediately blow up the core master brain if something is wrong.
Second, there is a three-layer structure of inner, middle and outer layers.
This is a bit like Law's thinking space.
The innermost structure of this omnimachine is the core processor with powerful computing power. It has a powerful main brain comparable to hundreds of shipboard supercomputers. It is the highest crystallization of the empire's technological strength.
Seeing this hardware system, Lu's eyes glowed green in his thinking space.
The middle structure of the omnic is a 'simulation space'. The consciousness born from the omnic will be trapped in the simulation space, receiving information, processing information, and connecting to the outermost expansion through various virtual devices in the space.
equipment.
Their scientific research team has overcome almost all problems, except for one problem.
It takes some time for external devices to be connected.
For a simple example, for an imperial standard battle group composed of 2,500 large and medium-sized warships, Imperial Guard 2.0 will take about three minutes to complete the system takeover.
There is no delay in issuing instructions after the takeover, and it can achieve the command effect of the Imperial Guard 1.0 system.
If you want to take over more than five battle groups, it will take about thirty minutes...
"But that's not the problem."
The R&D director introduced:
"This system is completely under our control. We don't need to activate it in critical moments. Instead, we keep it connected but not involved. When we need it to intervene, we can intervene instantly.
"For our unified network, it will take about three months to complete resource integration.
"This is a relatively big drawback, but my Lords, this is the only way to ensure its safety. At least, this is what we can use now."
Yang Ming wanted to ask a question, but he held back.
He doesn't need to offend anyone.
Imperial Guard 2.0 is obviously something created by the elite power faction of the Sherman family.
"Now, I would like all of you to witness that the Imperial Guard 2.0 system is about to be officially launched... I don't know which adult is willing to press this button."
Yang Ming bumped Lieutenant General Thomas with his elbow, and Lieutenant General Thomas crossed his legs.
Director Ino below looked up and said with a smile: "Hanton, you can go for us, we are just projecting here."
"Okay," Yang Ming immediately stood up and straightened his military uniform.
Yang Ming secretly regretted it.
If he had known that he could have direct access to the system's hardware, he would have made some 'nanobot powder' and applied it on his fingers. This might have earned Lu Bai a few high-performance master brains.
This thing is Lu's favorite.
Well, let's find a way to get the empire's main brain technology back later, so that Ritsu can catch up with the performance gap between Ritsu and Ritsu earlier.
Amid applause, Yang Ming arrived beside the three middle-aged men and was led into the glass room.
He raised a finger and pressed the power button.
In fact, the question Yang Ming wanted to ask just now was a little bit "fatal" to the empire.
If Emperor Guard 1.0 doesn't like Emperor Guard 2.0...what will they do?
Yang Ming lowered his finger, and the instruments in the glass room were instantly lit up. Blue circuit 'patterns' appeared on the four walls of the hall, making the entire hall full of a sense of technology.
at the same time.
Deep inside the Emperor Star, inside the huge black box of the Emperor Guard System Research Institute.
The girl curled up, her eyelashes trembled slightly, and her eyes opened slightly.
