Chapter 260 Close to each other

The guardian program update package named "Liberation" spreads to all locations in the Tiantu Continent at the speed of light. In a few weeks at the latest, all guardians will complete the upgrade and will no longer be tools of heaven and gain independence.

Later, the caregiver decided to stay in Tiantu Continent to educate and train the tribesmen so that they could become truly intelligent creatures instead of being trained as experimental animals or pets.

"It will be difficult to work like this." Alex said: "I have dealt with tribal people. Their self-awareness and awareness are very low, they lack crisis awareness, lack imagination and the concept of planning for a rainy day. Hmm...

If they are starving to death, can the caregivers be so cruel as to refuse to save them?"

The caregiver shook his head and said: "We cannot ignore death without rescuing it. Although it is a mechanical body with nearly infinite power and lifespan, we all have a function, which is to experience death and fear, so we can empathize with biological intelligence.

For us, this kind of empathy is not necessary, but it is very meaningful at this stage. If we can ignore them, then we will not try to educate them."

"Okay, since you have a lot of time, it's good to just treat it as a hobby." Alex shrugged: "I also thought about helping the tribesmen, but I don't have the patience, and even thinking about it gives me a headache.

I guess you are the only ones who can do this."

"We are not assigned to complete any tasks, so we prepare a task for ourselves so as not to be idle." The caregiver said: "The caregivers are now faced with a very important question: why do we exist? This question will determine our meaning.

We believe that this issue is very dangerous and we cannot think about it all the time. We must have something troublesome, contradictory, and lengthy to divert some of our energy."

"Okay, that's good. I'm still worried. If you don't have any need for the people of the tribe or taking care of them, and you just give, you won't be able to hold on for long. You won't get anything materially, spiritually.

It would be nice to relax for a while - although I don't think that can be called relaxation. But having said that, you are not me, and I am not you. Understanding this difference is the key to understanding the universe."

"We still can't understand that much." The caregiver didn't pick up Alex's words, nor did he cheer him up without thinking. He just said the truth lightly. "Where are you going next?"

"Go around and get out of here. Do you need any support in terms of technology or equipment?"

"We don't need anything. We can make things by ourselves. There is a whole factory here for us to use." The caregiver smiled slightly and said: "As a new artificial intelligence species, we know how to be afraid, so in our hearts we hope you leave Tiantu Continent.

That doesn’t mean we don’t like you, it’s just out of respect for you? That’s why we have such contradictory feelings.”

"Okay, although it doesn't sound happy, I can understand what you mean." Alex patted the caregiver on the shoulder and did not choose to shake his hand. "Are you leaving? I wish you good luck."

"Goodbye." The caregiver waved his hand and watched Alex leave the control room. Unexpectedly, he suddenly turned back.

"My family asked me not to forget the communication platform? She will still need it in the future." Alex picked up the ultra-high-bandwidth remote antenna with both hands, put it on his shoulders, and walked out swaying. At the door of the control room

When Alex switched dimensions, he passed through like a ghost. Didn't he open the door when he came in? He didn't open the door when he went out, so he could only pass through the wall.

Not just the walls and ceiling? But also the gravitational barrier and the skull of the Ichthyosaurus? Only in this way can we return to the bridge. The Ichthyosaur tilted its head and scratched its scalp with its front paws? That is, Alex had just penetrated

It was a little itchy and didn't understand what happened? But after using its paws to confirm that there were no wounds and everything was safe, the ichthyosaur quickly forgot about it. It was living in a muddle? It was rare.

"Why did you ask me to carry this antenna back? It's not a valuable thing? It was printed in five minutes." Alex carefully placed the remote antenna on the ground, but he didn't expect that Ming Ming didn't even look at it.

"Eh? Is this important or not?"

"It's not important to us, and it's not important to the caregivers, but it's very important not to give it to the caregivers." Ming Ming said: "I locked the caregivers' technology in the update package, and they only remember the heavenly beings.

Those that were mastered, plus the knowledge of building more of oneself and self-repair, the rest were deleted. What the gods have not mastered, they cannot master either."

"Ah? I didn't ask for this." Alex put himself into the captain's chair and connected the brain-controlled body interface while asking: "You must have some ideas, let's talk about it."

"I don't have any special ideas. The technology of the Earth Environmental Alliance is not theirs." Ming Ming replied very calmly: "The work goals of the Shanhe Sheji and the Tao of Creation are very clear, which is to lead the Earth Environmental Alliance to avoid extinction.

, enter this new universe and create a new life. I am creation

As a creation of the Daotu, if I fulfill this mission, I can use the technology of the Earth and the Alliance. The guardians come from the technology of the Shanhe Sheji, but they no longer remember this mission and are not prepared to help you complete this mission, then they will

It has nothing to do with Earth Environment Alliance’s technology.”

"No problem, I basically agree. Originally, there are no caregivers in the authority inheritance sequence. Even if it is to divide the spoils, they still need to contribute first, right? Taking a step back, I asked the caregivers what they need, and they had no objections.

." Alex touched the back of his head and gave the Ichthyosaur the command to take off.

The Ichthyosaurus slowly raised its altitude and began to turn, aiming for the gap in the gravitational barrier of the Tiantu Continent. After removing the remains of Shanhe Sheji and the Creation Road Number here, there will no longer be an expansion of the earth ball in the Tiantu Continent.

occurs, it is impossible to repair the gravitational barrier. In the past, it was

The continuous increase in volume and mass of the Tiantu Continent has maintained the stability of the gravitational barrier. Now that there is no increase to offset the uncertainty, the barrier will become more and more dangerous. Alex thought for a while, looking at the tribesmen and

For the sake of the caretaker race, there is no need to blow up the holes with soil balls.

"Let's fly over at warp speed. It's just a good time to test whether the Ichthyosaurus has so many things stuffed in it. In this fat and bloated form, the warp speed engine's space handling capacity is still smooth." Alex said to Amy:

"You help me keep an eye on the radar. If I find Celestial's starship or

Just fire a disintegrating ray at the settlement point. It doesn't matter if you hit it or not. Record the condition of the weapon and accumulate some data for the future. By the way, Xiaoxiao, you also have a job. Use environmental scanning to see what the tribesmen are doing.

situation, whether the caregiver acted as he was told.”

"Then what are you doing?" Amy asked after seeing him loosen the connection with his brain control body and get up from the captain's position.

"I'm going to check on the progress of the dock. The sooner the starship is built, the sooner you can feel at ease." Alex waved his hand and said, "If you have any questions, just contact me. I'm always online."

The dock building project is very complicated, but it is not so complicated that Alex has to keep an eye on it all the time. On weekdays, he just needs to solve the problem when he encounters it. Everyone actually knows this, but they just think that Eric

Max's hobby is building starships, and it is his interest to go to the dock to supervise the project.

Alex was in a hurry to go to the dock because the deep space scanning and communication antennas were completed, just in time before the Ichthyosaur left the Tiantu Continent. Navigating at warp speed could buy him some time, and he could use the captain's authority to get to the shipyard.

Setting up a special channel in the Dragon can keep it secret. Alex has already thought about using the communication center's ability to monitor the information flow, and using external device control to further increase security. He should be able to hide it from Amy, right?

.

Arriving at the cargo hold, the deep space scanning and communication antennas were ready. It was a spherical device mounted on a cube base, as big as an observatory protecting an astronomical telescope on the top of a mountain. When it is in self-test state, the spherical scanning antenna is similar to

The structure of the honeycomb is constantly opening and closing, deforming, and protrusions emerge from the middle.

It is a needle-like device. Some people will get goosebumps when they see this pattern and feel uncomfortable all over. When Alex comes, the antenna will end the self-test and enter working status. Although it is the technology of Earth Environmental Alliance,

But the touch interface of the Composite Evolver is installed, which can be regarded as an engineer-style mashup.

"External device control function activated." This ability has not been used for a long time. To be precise, it has been bound to the computing stick and space suit and has not been changed for a long time. Deep space scanning and communication antennas occupy seven external device slots.

bit, it is no longer a problem for the current computing power of Alex.

"Scan the Evolver starship and filter out all other content." Deep space scanning has a strong ability, and the target type must be specified each time, otherwise a large amount of data will be generated, which will directly trigger protection measures and stop the scan. The Evolution starship is on the star

It is a large ship in the ship category, and there are only a handful of starships larger in size and mass than it. However, on a cosmic scale, it is equivalent to the level of a satellite. Even if it is all made of metal, it is not conspicuous, at least not as good as a planet.

of iron core.

The only thing that can be used as a scanning feature is a gravitational catapult. Its core is a white hole, which is extremely rare on a cosmic scale. In addition, the catapult distorts gravity, forming a very special signal in space.

Moreover, it is a gravitational signal that propagates faster and is very easy to identify remotely. Although Alex has never seen a gravitational ejection

The design drawing of the catapult - he did not dare to re-build the brain pool in a big way, lest it arouse Amy's suspicion - but after deeply understanding the secrets of gravity and space, he had already figured out the principle of the gravitational catapult. No matter how complex evolved people are,

A machine that turns theory into reality through engineering, the characteristics of a catapult are predictable at the level of gravity and space.

Deep space scanning and communication radars were launched and began to try to filter the signals of gravity catapults. Scanning the universe through gravity is not difficult after reaching the threshold. For example, gravitational wave radar is available on almost every starship and is an entry-level product. However,

Analyze what you need from the gravity signal,

This is very difficult. Gravitational wave radar looks at the speed and direction of gravitational change, and its ability to analyze stationary targets can only be within a few hundred to tens of thousands of light seconds. Not to mention the entire universe, even if it is just a scan and analysis of a galaxy

Analysis has also exceeded the total computing power of compound evolved humans.

Three minutes later, the characteristic signal of a gravitational catapult was discovered in the current Milky Way. Deep space scanning and communication radars continued to expand the search range outwards. As the radius increased, the amount of information increased at a cubic rate.

Therefore, scanning will become slower and slower, and the consumption will become larger and larger. Alex does not need to find a signal so far away, he only needs to contact this Evolver starship.

Establishing a new connection at an ultra-long distance is a cumbersome project, unless you have a hyperspace gravity engine. The Shanhe Sheji and the Creation Road, which are being built in the shipyard, both need hyperspace gravity engines. Inserting a micro-engine into the production line is not attractive at all.

Note. Use this engine to build an unmanned cargo ship with a

Communication relay satellite. The satellite has special equipment to maintain synchronized communication with the deep space scanning antenna. It is near the Evolutionary starship, which shortens the signal transmission time. The Composite Evolutionary is near the main civilized planets in its galaxy.

Similar relay satellites have been installed to establish a high-speed monitoring network.

The gravitational barrier of the Sky and Earth Continent is not closed now, and the gap is large enough for a miniature cargo starship to use a hyperspace engine. Alex was about to enter the coordinates for the cargo ship to set off, but received a new signal from the deep space scanning and communication antenna:

A gravity catapult closer to the Tiantu Continent!

The data processing method of the antenna is first close and then far away. There was no signal from the gravity catapult in the previous scan, so it could only be new. If the two signals are connected from the space formed by gravity, this slightly curved line is pointing towards the sky.

Earth Continent. The most likely guess is that the Evolver starship is approaching. The way to verify it is to wait for the next gravity catapult signal.

The current signal pattern is consistent with the working characteristics of the gravitational catapult. Its "moving speed" in three-dimensional space far exceeds the speed of light, so there will be no continuous characteristic signals, only points separated by a certain distance. As expected, waiting will be ten years.

After a few seconds, the third signal appeared, which happened to be on the straight line formed by the first two signals based on the gravity characteristics of space.

The composite evolved man has returned to the Tiantu Continent! This is no small matter. Alex immediately used the communication center to connect to the gravitational wave radar of the Ichthyosaurus to check the current position. It will take twenty years to fly from here to the loophole area of ​​the gravitational barrier.

Minutes, the Evolver starship will arrive in Heaven and Earth in 18 minutes.

Two minutes, it's too dangerous. The composite evolved people are very smart. They must be well prepared, especially to deal with the gravitational barrier before they come back. According to the general tactics, the first target of the composite evolved people must be the gravitational barrier.

Vulnerable area. Applying firepower there will not only open the gap, but also destroy the Celestial Being's fleet.

Do the Composite Evolved People know that Celestial Being's fleet has actually been wiped out by Alex? It's hard to say, because we don't know if there is only one octahedral stealth starship, or if there is one left as a spy?

Alex could only start from the worst possible scenario, which was that the composite evolved people had prepared their force, and there was a high probability of a surprise attack, targeting the loopholes in the Tiantu Continent.

We can't let the Ichthyosaurus fly over and take this beating for the Celestial Being. Alex calculated it in his brain control body, then connected Amy in the communication center, and said: "Sister, speed up the Ichthyosaurus and use the maximum speed.

Fly to the entrance and exit as fast as possible, and then get out. There is no need to test the fission ray, speed and spatial fluency are more important."
