Chapter 92 Detector (Three chapters will be added in the early morning, please continue to subscribe to the monthly ticket reward~)
Exploring an unknown world, a world with civilization, certainly cannot be reckless.
If we send humans, based on our understanding of pioneers, it would basically be sending their heads off.
Then there is only one solution - detector!
Although unmanned equipment has many shortcomings, it is safer when facing completely unknown scenarios.
The preliminary plan was finalized, but the H City base did not start any action.
Exploring an unknown civilization is a huge responsibility that cannot be undertaken by just PPDC.
Without hesitation, the general handed the plan to his most trusted human leader who had always supported PPDC.
It is also the top leader of Country C.
Without the secret support of the top leaders of Country C, PPDC would not be able to open its most important base in City H.
The senior officials of Country C also attached great importance to the general's plan and the situation of the pioneers.
Faced with a catastrophe that was about to destroy the entire civilization, they were all very clear-headed and determined.
Soon, elites from all walks of life were assigned to the H City base to assist in the development of the Pioneer World Exploration Program and to help build an unprecedented unmanned probe to explore alien civilizations!
However, Country C did not inform other countries of this plan.
The general understood this as well.
In fact, many people in the upper class of humanity suspect that there are people from the monster side among humans.
As the Pioneer civilization surfaced, in other words, there were ghosts among humans who were influenced by the Pioneers or defected to the Pioneers!
After all, some people really couldn't figure out how the plan to abandon the support of mechas and build walls was passed?
Even among the upper echelons of Country C, only a few people knew about the launch of this Pioneer world exploration plan.
All personnel involved in the research signed a strict confidentiality agreement and would not be told the real purpose of building the detector.
With a large amount of talent and material support, the base in H City was brightly lit for a month.
Based on the existing detector, the first prototype was manufactured!
…
On You Huan's side, after obtaining two level 4 monsters, the Tailed Rat and the Hard-shelled Turtle, he obtained a total of 599+581=1180 evolution points!
The evolution points gained from level 5 monsters are so abundant!
Plus the 16 evolution points gained from fishing occasionally in the sea...
Well, it's still 84 points away from upgrading.
Looking at the [Level: Lv.8 (1196/1280)] on the panel, he narrowed his eyes.
Don't worry, there are still monsters behind...
He also had another gain during this month.
[Stage: Adolescence]
The stage from boyhood to young adulthood represented that he had officially become an adult as a tail-standing rat.
Its size also increased a lot, reaching a height of seventy-three meters, which was taller than the original rat with its head and tail standing upright.
He floated slightly to the surface, tested his current strength and other qualities, and then dived into the deep sea again.
Waiting for the day when the next action begins...
…
At the base, people are testing the functions of the initial version of the detector.
Newton strode over with bloodshot eyes, scaring everyone.
He walked to the general who was watching the test in a somewhat disorderly manner and handed a large stack of information to the general.
The general took the document, which was filled with a large amount of content and drawings written in messy handwriting.
He asked doubtfully, "Doctor, you want to add more biological elements to the detector?"
In fact, in order to pass the wormhole detection, a piece of monster's flesh and blood has been loaded on the detector.
Newton nodded up and down and pushed up his crooked glasses.
These days he was always caught in some strange dreams and saw many scattered scenes of the pioneer world.
On the black platform surging with heat waves, he saw a scorching sun in the sky that was completely different from the sun itself.
I also saw the dark shadows of pioneers surging like a swarm of ants.
At the end of every dreamlike, half-awake illusion, he could always see a pair of eyes.
A pair of sharp eyes emitting a bright blue light.
It seemed to be telling him something in silent words.
He sorted out his words and persuaded the general and the detector builders around him:
"We are going to detect an environment full of biomass."
"Hmm." The general folded his arms and nodded.
"In that environment, non-biological machinery would appear out of place. If you think about it, the appearance of completely unfamiliar materials would definitely attract attention."
"On the other hand, pure machines equipped with intelligent modules are not as flexible as biological ones in terms of movement when not connected to the Internet!"
"We are going to explore a completely new and almost completely unknown environment. In this case, a more flexible mind and a regenerative body can help us collect more information!"
As he spoke, he couldn't help getting excited and waving his hands.
Next to the general, a white-haired old man spoke:
"Your idea is good, but how do we achieve control over living organisms and create probes with sufficiently high intelligence?"
"Instead of using all biomass, we can create a detector that is part mechanical, part biological."
Newton answered, pointing to the information in the general's hand.
"I have worked with Herman to design an intelligent model that simulates biological neural networks. As long as this detector is manufactured according to my method, it can be controlled by programs and commands, and its performance in all aspects can be guaranteed!"
The general flipped through the information again, saw a few lines, and raised his eyebrows: "Using monster cells as a basis? Doctor, you are very bold."
Newton, however, put his hands on his hips and said, "This will allow the detector to better integrate into the local area."
Behind the general, a group of experts from various industries looked at each other for a moment.
Now that Newton has come up with a solution...
It's not that it can't be done!
Another month has passed.
When a group of people squeezed out all their energy and wisdom and exhausted all detector technologies.
The final version of the detector was made!
For the past two months, the sea has been calm and there has been no sign of any monster.
——Of course, this excludes the "divine punishment" that appears and disappears mysteriously and is occasionally witnessed or detected by people.
This situation is inconsistent with the frequency of monsters appearing one after another two months ago.
This certainly cannot mean that the Pioneers have given up their desire for the Blue Star.
Obviously, a storm more gloomy and violent than ever before is brewing.
This also caused the H City base to be shrouded in an atmosphere of impending heavy rain. Everyone was busy strengthening the mechas and the atmosphere was solemn.
Until the day when the probe was completed, the top leaders of the base watched its testing and finally felt a little relieved.
This probe, named "Lightning", is shaped like a palm-sized spider and is covered with a gray-black shell similar to that of a monster.
Watching the spider undergoing operational tests in a harsh environment of high temperature and pressure, Rory crossed his arms and turned his head to ask Mori Mako,
"Is the name of this little thing derived from 'Divine Punishment'?"
Asako Mori shrugged: "Yeah. The Heaven Punishment is probably the most special monster in human history."
"It looks like a miniature monster," said son Chuck Hansen, who was in the driver's seat of the Eureka Raider.
Dr. Newton said proudly,
"Of course. Based on the flesh and blood of the monster, I used an epoch-making genius idea to create this half-machine, half-biological creature."
Chuck asked, "Do we have control over this thing?"
Newton said: "Of course! Herman and I specially designed its simulated brain intelligence model, which will never be controlled by the pioneers! Right, Herman?"
He didn't get a reply for a long time, so he turned his head to look.
Herman didn't even look at the test of the Lightning. He kept muttering to himself and calculating something in his notebook.
Seeing this, Newton shrugged helplessly.
The Lightning test is complete and everything is good.
Just wait for the day when the wormhole is destroyed, and then throw this little thing into the other side of the wormhole.
As everyone walked out of the testing area, Herman suddenly shouted, "I figured it out!"
Everyone was shocked.
The general turned to him and asked, "What did you figure out?"
Herman limped in front of the crowd, turned around and said to them seriously:
"Mathematical and biological predictive models tell me that the next monster attack will involve four monsters."
"All of them have reached level five, and there is a high probability that one of them has reached level six!"
"And the time when they appear...is not far from now."
PS1: There will be six updates today, and the regular three chapters will be updated starting from noon.
PS2: In the world of Pacific Rim, the protagonist's appearance rate will be smaller in some places, because there are some things that he does not do himself, but lets his tools, no, his cheap younger brothers do them.
