It is obviously wrapped in a set of iron lumps that can play the protagonist in the carrot slice of District 11, and I can see at a glance that the key positions of this armor are made of zero-element alloy, even if your body bug is completely ignorant.
A bug with no strength can withstand at least two to three levels of psykers with just this armor, right?
After all, he is a general. No matter how educated he is, he was born in the army. What kind of trouble are you going to make by pretending to be pitiful to me?
It is said that the Pallai people are actually a nation that is very willing to express their emotions frankly, so Yu Lian did not hide his eyes in particular, and even simply smiled.
General Griffith said matter-of-factly in his electronic voice: "There is no way, my body is just a fragile Palladium man after all. Even if I am wearing armor, I always feel insecure. Although I did consider abandoning Wu.
A meaningful body, the possibility of injecting soul into a body of steel... However, this is too whimsical."
Yu Lian lowered his head slightly, hiding his meaningful gaze in the shadows.
Are you still thinking about using a can of psychic energy to fly? Aren’t you worried that it smells too strong?
"Can this be done?" Major Poppas was very interested. He felt that since he followed Yu Lian and got to know this big boss of the Iron Army Complex, both knowledge and imagination have been moving towards him in the past few days.
The road is progressing by leaps and bounds that we never imagined.
"Theoretically it can be done..." The gray iron lump, the engineering officer named Jan Guo, just said this, but he hesitated and stopped, and then gave General Griffith a very humane look.
.
The general was more magnanimous than his subordinates: "But this is only theoretical... and there must be ethical and moral taboos on the concept of life. Even if these are eliminated, if the soul leaves the body and is injected with artificial
Within the body, can the soul still be regarded as a soul? Has life entered a new level, or has it been destroyed and is just a copy simulated by a man-made program? "
"Can man-made programs now fully restore personality?" Yu Lian asked with a smile.
"Of course... we're still far from it." General Griffith's electronic voice seemed to have a little helplessness.
Again, the currently known electronic technologies and algorithms are very crude and far from true artificial intelligence. Most of the so-called "intelligent robots" and "intelligent programs" are basically worse than many social robots.
The Japanese wives who stay at home are stupid. All the performance is achieved by unscientific hardware performance.
"Then it's too early for you to worry." Yu Lian shrugged.
General Griffith did not answer, but the electromagnetic signals between the gray engineering officer Jango and the army green commander Heroes subtly intensified a lot. They must have been touched and began to communicate closely.
Yu Lian added: "The Void Spirit Temple, as well as most spiritual groups in the universe currently, believe that the soul is independent and that the soul should be able to separate from the body. This is indeed a very idealistic view. Unfortunately, currently,
Many psychic operations can indeed prove this. In this way, how can the soul that is separated from the original body not be a soul? "
At this point, he couldn't help but feel happy: "But in this way, a paradox appears. Since the soul can carry the past memories, experiences, knowledge and emotions of life, it is the essence of life. In this way
, even if you really change your body, how can you desecrate your life?"
"What do you think of the Ethereal Temple?" General Griffith asked.
"I don't think anything of them at all, at least they didn't set up crosses and burn people," Yu Lian said.
As a cultural man who is very familiar with the earth's culture and even knows it in Jerusalem, General Griffith naturally understands what the cross means, and the lightbulb eyes flickered again: "So, what do you think is the nature of soul and spiritual energy?
?”
"Me?" Yu Lian was startled for a moment, then smiled: "I would think that the soul is a flow of information, and spiritual energy is also a kind of energy, but it is just that it cannot be understood in the current way. You see, in this way
, wouldn’t it be very materialistic?”
General Griffith's electronic voice flashed: "A genius in the field of psychic energy is more radical than a robot like me? Isn't this fate?"
He still made an electronic sound like a stick reading, but this time it seemed like he was singing happily.
Are you installing a robot for me now?
At this time, the scanning function from the mecha's central processor quickly fed back General Griffith's latest real-time three-dimensional map. He projected these directly on the ground into a three-dimensional optical stereoscopic projection. Everyone then
At a glance, you can see the location of your site, as well as all the surrounding factory plans and information that you have mastered.
"We are here now. This is the route we just came in." General Griffith used his iron finger to draw a passage on the optical projection, and then clicked on the slightly blurry edge of the three-dimensional map: "Eastern
To the northeast is a dust power plant, which is directly connected to the dust refinery, providing sufficient energy to the entire plant. However, when it was relocated that year, an explosion actually occurred, making the geological structure there unstable, and there are still
There is a certain amount of debris. Here is another passage leading to the ground. The transportation track is laid, which directly connects Crystal City and the crystal mine in the west of the city. Then, where the two sides meet, it is directly the external power workshop!
What a perfect factory design! If these were restored, robot enthusiasts across the universe would go crazy."
He probably means that for robot enthusiasts, the design of this factory site is like the most perfect garden, making people linger, right?
Yu Lian thought to himself that I should be considered a robot enthusiast! And I am also a deep-rooted industrialist party, so why don’t I have any feeling in this regard?
But no matter what, since they gave so much, it was really hard for me to say anything.
"This is where our automatic detector lost contact." General Griffiths moved his hand forward again and outlined a large fuzzy area. If converted to the same scale, it would be about seven meters away from directly in front of everyone.
It's like 800 meters.
"Although the planetary administration and security departments of the empire have repeatedly assured us that there is no danger in the ruins of the coordination factory. They will send people to patrol and clear out the remains every once in a while. We only occasionally encounter some who go underground to build structures.
There are wild animals in their nests, but we have lost two automatic detection machines after all. We cannot take it lightly." General Griffith repeated the precautions again, and two more subordinates said: "You are also robotics experts.
You should know that in any factory where autonomous machinery has been mass-produced, even if it has been abandoned for a long time, there is always the possibility that some fish will slip through the net. What does it mean when you find an autonomous robot that can still move?"
"It means there are at least ten hiding nearby!" said the gray-skinned engineering officer Zhan Guo.
"I believe that the local government of the Empire will not deceive us on this issue. With the Empire's style of conduct, if the ruins of this coordination factory really have potential risks, I believe they will not leave it alone. If we speculate like this, let us
The potential risk of the drone losing contact is very likely to have been activated recently due to certain conditions. Of course, it is also possible that this is only effective for robots." General Griffith added.
He seemed to see that Major Poppas was a little confused and said: "After all, it was one of the most famous robot factories in the entire galaxy. If there are some remaining mechanisms to deal with robots running out of control, they are now activated occasionally."
I have to admit that this guy's words are indeed a bit suspicious of free-thinking, but they do make some sense. Besides, this kind of digging graves, no, archaeological exploration work sometimes requires free-thinking to ensure safety.
ah!
This is probably why General Griffith cried and begged for help. Although their mechas are controlled by the insect body, the degree of automation is really high, and maybe there is still that residual "mechanism"
within the scope of action.
...Speaking of which, although this is a universe where scientific and technological progress depends on digging graves, aren't the things that need to be dug up all the relics left by the enlightened? This time, they actually dug up things from two hundred years ago. Only from this perspective
In other words, Count Salvin is indeed the mastermind behind everything.
Thinking of this, Yu Lian also took a little more seriously and checked his weapons and equipment again to make sure everything was in good condition.
But at this time, I heard General Griffith say again: "If this is really the case, please give priority to protecting yourselves. If you can't find out clearly this time, just come back next time. This exercise will last a month anyway."
"
Although the Palla people look like insects, they do not have the reproductive ability of insects, so the population has always been a problem.
...So you are completely prepared to not do your job until the exercise is over, right?
"I think the distinction between main job and side job is actually debatable. It not only depends on the world's opinions, but also depends on our own attitude." General Griffith seemed a little embarrassed, and the electronic sound paused for a long time.
After nearly half a minute, he said: "Colonel, can you do me one more small favor?"
"...You won't ask me to help you write a report on military exercises and inspections again, will you?"
"No, I'm just borrowing your observation report, let me translate it a little, and just sign it casually. Colonel, I confirm again that although our physical forms and hobbies are different, there must be a couple living in our hearts.
From a close friend who shares the same mind.”
A big bug with a head like an octopus should not say such ambiguous things.
"Anyway, we are all acting together, and it is very reasonable to use the same observation report. It will not cause you too much trouble. On the contrary, no matter how the situation develops in the future, I sincerely hope that the Iron Army Complex and I,
can all become your trustworthy allies.”
This sentence seemed to ring directly in his ears. It was not an electronic sound, but a voice with obvious emotional levels. It should have been sent directly by spiritual energy.
"What kind of ally is it?" Yu Lian also asked using his spiritual power.
"Of course... haha, let's see how the situation develops in the future." There was a smile in General Griffith's psionic simulated voice, but the electronic sound in his mouth was lowered: "One hundred meters ahead we are about to
Entering the warning area, please remain vigilant."
At this moment, the military-green commander Kuroshi's mechanical arms have retracted into his wrists, and a hot-melt battle ax popped up on the wrist of his right hand. This is a type of weapon that can use high temperatures to dissolve and destroy enemy armor.
hand-to-hand combat weapons.
As for the left hand, it was replaced with a black barrel that was one meter long. It was a standard 9mm kinetic energy machine gun. If the commander of Black Ross was equipped with a standard commander's outer armor, he would at least be able to
Carry thousands of rounds of ammunition.
However, what really concerned Yu Lian were the several small catapult-like devices pulled out from the back of the Black Ross mecha. Yu Lian knew that there were at least ten small automatic war robots hidden inside, carrying different responsibilities.
The performance and tactical tasks are controlled by the commander as the hub.
And this is just a tactical machine carried by an iron army commander.
In fact, on a real battlefield, a commander is a combat center platform and a combat unit above the division level, which can conduct unified combat command of thousands of automatic tactical machines.
Of course, this is the territory of the empire, and it is impossible for the commander of an iron army complex to really lead all his robot troops here. However, the armament it carries alone is enough to resist a platoon of fully armed imperial charges.
Team up.
At this time, Heiros had already driven the thick-skinned commander's mecha and took a step forward to the front of the team. His mission this time was to assist and protect General Griffith. When encountering danger, he would naturally be the first to do so.
On top of that.
However, he immediately thought of something, slowed down, and looked at Major Poppas beside him.
"How about we come together?" Heiros said.
Again, the Palla people probably have less twists and turns in their stomachs because they look like insects. They are a race that likes to express their emotions candidly.
Major Poppas showed a stiff smile, thinking that I have always felt that my emotional intelligence is very low, but if I were in the Iron Army, I would definitely be a smart person.
In fact, until now, he is still a little confused about the situation and has no idea why he, a member of the exercise observation group, has inexplicably started to participate in the expedition.
Of course, as an excellent Marine officer, he carefully checked his firearms and made sure that the protective clothing was operating normally before putting down his bulletproof helmet and starting to move forward. Of course, looking at him like that
Zi, has been walking half a step slower on the right side of Heiros, as if ready to hide behind this iron lump at any time.
This does not mean that the major is timid. An excellent grassroots officer and combatant should find cover as soon as he enters an area where fighting is likely to occur.
Heiros didn't stop anymore, he seemed to just want someone to follow him to embolden him.
Ever since, the expedition team composed of three "robots" and two humans passed through a passage between factories. The view in front of them became more open, and suddenly a huge square space appeared, with a length and width exceeding
A thousand meters away. Opposite the square is another large factory area full of technology, which is located in the fuzzy area not shown in the three-dimensional map just now.
Yu Lian thought for a while and guessed that this should be the central transportation transfer area... To put it bluntly, it is a parking lot. Since this factory is of this scale, it is easy to understand that there is a parking lot of this size.
Although General Griffith did not shout excitedly, Yu Lian's perception quickly picked up the other's emotional fluctuations.
This guy is really in a state of ecstasy. He walked in slowly just for this moment, right?
However, even so, he maintained the calmness expected of a superior person: "The last time the detector lost contact near here."
Engineering Officer Zhan Guo understood instantly and put three more automatic detectors out of his mecha's storage. This is an automatic robot like a scooter, silently turning its rollers to slide deep into the ground.
passed.
Everyone stopped moving forward, and Commander Heiros bowed down. He popped out steel nails from his steel ankles and smashed them into the ground, fixing his body into the so-called fortress mode. Major Poppas felt very satisfied.
I think this shape perfectly achieves the effect of a bunker.
"Be careful." Griffith reminded him redundantly.
"Start full three-dimensional scanning." He ordered the engineering officer again.
The other party didn't answer, but he pulled out a very sci-fi and advanced shooting equipment from the belly of his machine, shining its light on the long-abandoned buildings across the square.
Soon, the scanner informed General Griffith of new information.
"Three hours, how can it be so complicated?"
"And there must be some missing ones." Jango said.
"Sure enough, we still need to walk further inside." After General Griffith said this, he then looked at Yu Lian. A pair of lightbulb eyes lit up in a rhythmic way, and he actually flashed a little pleading.
the taste of.
Yu Lian rolled his eyes and was about to say something when he suddenly heard Zhan Guo's electronic voice suddenly rising in pitch, and the tone was a bit more urgent than usual: "Unnatural electromagnetic pulse detected!"
Then, I only felt a fleeting light flash in the square in the distance, and the three scooters that had entered the parking lot made a "pop" sound, and there was no more movement, completely joining the crowd on the scene.
among the ranks of electronic waste.
Looking at the three "robots" around me, the lightbulbs in the mechanical eyes flickered a few times, and then went out on the spot as if they had tripped. Then, the body that stood proudly like a steel statue suddenly stooped,
It was as if all the energy and spirit had been sucked away in an instant.
General Griffith made an intermittent electronic sound: "Unnatural electricity, magnetism, pulse, pulse, body malfunction, is shutting down. Wait, help!"
