Chapter 201. Automation (Chapter Two in One)
The voyage at a depth of 2,000 meters is expected to last more than twenty days, because the high pressure at this depth is similar to the atmospheric pressure in the pioneering field detected by wormhole detectors.
For Expedition, it is rare to conduct various tests that are completely similar to the Pioneer Field in a limited time. It is considered to be well prepared to be able to simulate the Pioneer Field environment to a certain extent.
After Lu Yu's transformation, the survival system withstood the test of the environment. Without combat, the living standards of the crew members were not too severely different from the time they were on land.
But at the same time, in a practical environment, some problems with parts and component components have also been exposed, which is also the significance of sea trials. Discover problems in advance and solve them as much as possible, and avoid cramming temporarily.
However, the damage or failure did not affect the normal use of the Expedition during the voyage, which shows that Lu Yu's overall design idea is not problematic, and the redundant design of the hull also ensures sufficient safety.
During the submarine voyage, in addition to testing and repairing the durability of the Expedition, it is very important to continue production.
In addition to robots and mechas, the ones to be produced are all kinds of powerful weapons.
Because once these weapons start to be built at the M Country base, they will inevitably leak out the news. Before they can use them on monsters, they will fall into a sensitive vortex.
Now that he is navigating in the deep sea and has fewer concerns, Lu Yu must expand the arsenal of the Expedition before crossing the wormholes, otherwise he will only be beaten in the pioneer realm.
Resource robots are constantly busy at the bottom of the sea, collecting resources that are rare on the ground but may be enriched. The automated production lines continue to further process these resources into the state of raw materials.
While Lu Yu quickly enriched the Expedition's arsenal, he was also conceiving how to fully implement the strategic goals of the Expedition.
After a series of calculations and drafts, Lu Yu summoned all the key figures of the Expedition.
In the conference room, Captain Feng Ting, Operation Commander General Hughes, Mecha Captain Xiaopang Brother, the strongest combat power, and Chen Tianming, who was mingling with Lu Yu's team, sat on the round table.
Lu Yu asked the question directly: "Our strategic goals look clear, reach the pioneer realm, beat them up, and then destroy the wormhole and return to Earth.
Or to put it more refined, it will prevent the pioneer civilization from continuing invasion of the human world.
But for a long time, we have been in a vague stage of thinking about how to achieve this.
If I ask Julia, I'm afraid she will only kill all the way.
Or with our strong productivity, we keep blowing and blowing?
These days I have been improving the military equipment of the Expedition and have also had some interesting ideas, which I think will be feasible."
As he said that Lu Yu opened the holographic image: "Everyone is very clear about the situation of Expedition. Our resource robots constantly collect resources, and then process them from an automated production line into raw materials, then into robots, Titans, etc.
To put it bluntly, as a base ship, the Expedition is a war machine that continuously produces weapons under our control. However, in the process of using these weapons, we are mainly controlled by humans.
And for the pioneer field, the intelligence we know is limited and cannot even assume its boundaries.
If we rely solely on the Expedition, we simply cannot calculate how many weapons it takes to attack the pioneer civilization.
In this case, some ruthless methods are needed, such as setting off a war that will never stop in the pioneer field."
As Lu Yu switched the screen again, a base ship similar to Expedition appeared in the screen. Lu Yu showed its details while introducing it to everyone.
"I have not named it for the time being. This kind of warship is based on the Expedition. Its automated production lines, anti-reconnaissance technology and other technologies all come from the current Expedition.
The only difference is that its core will adopt two sets of intelligent systems.
One is a highly intelligent system based on existing computer technology of human beings, and the other is an automatic mechanical control system that drives only execution of unique commands based on pure mechanization.
The difference between the two is that after we give orders, the intelligent system can judge and implement appropriate tactics by itself. However, because it is based on the existing technical level of human beings, even if I think of many ways, I cannot completely avoid being damaged or suppressed by monsters using shock waves and other means.
Another mechanized system is purely based on power and mechanical devices, and adopts the most basic mechanical logic. Although the structure may be relatively complex, it has extremely strong survivability. Unless the monster captures the entire base ship, the base ship will continue to attack the pioneer civilization according to the orders we set.
Driven by these two systems, the base ship will continue to wander in the pioneer realm and launch continuous devastating blows on it until the entire pioneer realm becomes dead."
"If the enemy is not a monster or a pioneer, I will definitely say that this is a poisonous plan. But the pioneer civilization wants to destroy human civilization and occupy the earth on which we rely on, then I agree with how terrible means they use!" General Hughes took the lead in expressing his attitude.
Feng Ting nodded: "I suggest that this is indeed an effective solution, but it's just that Lu Yu has to work hard to build these big guys.
We have nothing to be soft-hearted about the pioneers. The crimes they committed against humanity are so numerous that even if we defeat them for a moment but do not destroy them, they will continue to invade other civilizations."
Little fat brother raised his hands to agree without hesitation, and Chen Tianming didn't say anything. However, Lu Yu noticed that Julia had no opinion. Even if Feng Ting asked about Julia, she nodded ambiguously.
After the meeting, Lu Yu found Julia alone: "Does my plan have any impact on you?"
Julia has never been a dragging person, but now she shows some hesitation.
"In terms of reason, I don't think your plan has any problem. Since the pioneer civilization uses destruction of other civilizations to exchange for its own survival, it should be backfired.
But you also know, my rank...
Recently we are getting closer to heading to the pioneer civilization, and my intuition about trials has become clearer and clearer.
My next trial is to hunt stronger monsters with my own hands.”
Lu Yu twitched: "Monsters can be integrated with each other. If we follow the plot of the movie, the King of Monsters should be fused by multiple monsters on Earth.
However, if you are serious, it is very likely that there are far better than monsters in the movies in the pioneer field.
But in this way, your actions will easily deviate from the actions of the Expedition.”
"Yes, my sense of responsibility as a member of the Expedition and my desire for power as a hunter have now become a contradiction in my heart.
I am very confused now, and what I worry most is what negative impact it will have on the Expedition.”
After saying that, the two of them were speechless, and they were confused and thought nothing was thought of.
These days, both of them are addicted to work, and it is rare to get together and just release themselves with all their might.
One night passed.
Although it is still impossible to completely resolve the conflict in Julia's heart, after all, they have not yet reached the pioneer realm, so the two decided to take a step by step.
The core circle of the Expedition agreed to Lu Yu's plan, and the combat staff began to formulate a combat plan around the plan.
Lu Yu, on the other hand, had to solve the key problems and maintain an automated production line.
The core of the current Expedition automatic production line includes its magical props "building materials synthesis module" and "basic raw material extractor".
If these two things are not available, it would be a great deal to build an effective automated production line to continue to attack pioneer civilizations.
Fortunately, after the product interface is now opened in the Reincarnation Mall, more and more products are on the shelves. These two props are also among the options available for purchase, which only limits the builder rank, and the price is really amazing.
But an interesting part of the Reincarnation Mall is that the rank of the builder who engages in production has never lacked the reincarnation point. Lu Yu is still very easy to bear this cost.
With these two core components, it will not be difficult to build automatic base ships in the pioneer field.
At the same time, the plan to establish a global undersea investigation network agreed with Feng Ting has also begun to be implemented.
For this reason, Lu Yu had a careful calculation and wanted to spread the sea to detect robots, and then all the activities of the monsters were well known, I am afraid that with Lu Yu's robotics technology, more than 5 million robots around the world would be deployed to form an available reconnaissance network.
Although the efficiency of automated production lines is pretty good, and can produce nearly 100 robots at full capacity every day, it is still far from global coverage.
In addition, in order to make the robot detect network really effective, a huge data processing center is needed to make the network truly enabled.
It is unrealistic to realize such a grand blueprint in the short term, but Lu Yu must also try it. After all, when he comes to the pioneer field, he must also establish a similar investigation network, and do not test his own limits in advance. When he really comes to the pioneer field and wants to come in handy, he finds that he can't do it and that it's ridiculous.
There are a total of 500 general-purpose robots in stock that have been produced in advance, each robot is about the same size as a gas tank.
It’s not that Lu Yu cannot do it smaller, but if it is smaller, the reliability of the robot will be greatly reduced. The deep-sea environment in which the robot runs is particularly harsh and does not have enough reliability, it is a pure waste of resources.
When the robot is on standby, it is like a gas tank. Each ten groups are connected with special fasteners, and then thrown out of the sea by the Expedition. Then, it slowly sails to an unfamiliar target point with its own engine. Then each robot takes off the fastener and goes to the exclusive coordinate point to expand and arranges it.
The Expedition first circled around the Atlantic Ocean, which continued to shrink around the trench that existed in the Atlantic Wormhole. At the same time, it brought hundreds of nearly thousands of reconnaissance robots to the bottom of the sea to monitor the movements of the trench at all times.
The detection robot uses different methods to charge according to its location, and can use tidal energy and solar energy to maintain low-frequency operation on the sea surface or on the surface.
In the sea layer with ocean currents, ocean currents can be used for energy charging. What is worse is that the majority of deep-sea robots can only rely on the fuel cells they carry to supply energy.
However, these fuel cells were processed by Lu Yu using the flesh and blood of monsters, and can continuously provide these deep-sea robots with basic operation for more than five years.
After production, groups of reconnaissance robots were put into the sea by the Expedition and deployed. At the same time, Lu Yu also improved the entire data center within the Expedition.
Time flies very quickly. In just ten days, the Expedition had already run from the Atlantic Ocean to the Pacific Ocean, and arranged nearly two thousand reconnaissance robots along the way.
Although this is far from the conceived comprehensive reconnaissance network, there are some robot arrangements near the undersea wormholes in the Atlantic Ocean and on the important sea route from the Pacific to the Atlantic Ocean.
At the same time, Lu Yu also contacted the Hunter Organization in advance and floated the synchronized data processing compartment to the surface. Then the aircraft organized by the Hunter Organization brought the data compartment back to the Hunter Base that was being repaired.
Although this reconnaissance network is not even a semi-finished product, when the Hunter Organization activated the data processing cabin and obtained detailed hydrological data from the deep sea, General Bode and his team were shocked.
"General, we and other countries have tried to arrange sensors or reconnaissance equipment in the sea before, but we have never thought of establishing a stable detection and reconnaissance network in the deep sea.
If this network does not fail, our early warning ability to attack monsters from the bottom of the sea will be greatly improved."
The scientists from the Hunter Organization were deeply moved: "But the deep sea has always been a place that humans cannot explore, and even the mechas we built cannot stay in the deep sea for a long time. This is an amazing technology, but unfortunately we cannot see people who do all this."
General Bode clenched his fists: "They want to achieve a greater goal, maybe this is the interpretation of the sentence "The greater the ability, the greater the responsibility."
But now we have just obtained control of the reconnaissance network and have seen bad news.
Look, the monster seems to be heading towards the Panama Canal.
The Suez Canal had been hit by monsters before, and the Panama Canal was survived by strict protection from Country M.
But recently, monster incidents in China M have emerged one after another, and most of their power has shrunk to China. Panama has only left an old second-generation mecha.
If we do not inform M country of action, Panama will be destroyed and the global economy will be further hit.
