Origin of Mars

Chapter 4

Only by doing a good job in the most basic industrial production can we have the capital to do other things, such as expanding bases and developing blueprints.

Fang Liang still understood this simple truth very thoroughly.

And the working efficiency of this industrial robot has far exceeded Fang Liang's imagination.

In less than half an hour, a huge square mine had appeared at Fang Liang's feet, and its specifications were nearly dozens of times larger than the mine he dug out by himself.

The fed back longitudinal view of the mine appears on the mask, the path is reasonable, all the roads are connected to each other, and a green light spot can be seen shuttled through these straight underground tunnels at a constant speed, and pieces of ores of different types are slender The folded metal hand sends out the ground.

Fang Liang temporarily acted as a conveyor belt, transporting these ore mixtures to the base, where they were decomposed and smelted by the workbench to become new raw materials.

With the help of these ores, Fang Liang manufactured five more industrial robots and one intelligent simulation robot.

The raw materials of intelligent simulation robots and industrial robots are the same, the only difference is that some precious metals are needed. These precious metals are the main components of their smart chips. When the first industrial robot dug to a depth of about 30 meters underground, it was lucky to find a piece of Ore mixed with precious metals.

silver.

Most of silver in nature exists in silver ore or other types of ore in the form of compound state.

This ore glowing with beautiful silver-white light has made the intelligent simulation robot with a slender humanoid shape in front of Fang Liang.

Strangely, a few seconds after Fang Liang built the robot, the blueprint instantly dimmed, and its information disappeared directly on the mask.

Then, in the most central cabin, a slender humanoid body floated lightly to Fang Liang's eyes.

"Hi sir, I'm Zero, it's my honor to serve you."

The body of this robot has an exoskeleton shape similar to Fang Liang's, but it is lighter and thinner, showing a silky streamlined shape. Clear light blue eyes flashed on the simulated face, looking at Fang Liang.

"zero?"

Fang Liang looked at it with great interest, "The robot number just now was 001, why are you 0?"

"I'm not like them, sir."

Lingchao Fangliang bowed gracefully, "They are nothing more than a pile of tools piled up with metal. I am extremely honored to be the first intelligent robot to be created."

"I don't like the name of intelligent simulation robot. Zero is the code name I chose for myself, if you have no objection."

Such a strange tone made Fang Liang very interested in this intelligent robot.

It is indeed different from the previous robots that are full of industrial atmosphere. The whole body is silver and smooth, and there is no trace of patchwork. It is like being sculpted from a piece of jade. It is hard to imagine what kind of technology it is created. Miraculous product.

The person standing in front of him didn't seem to be a cold robot, and the temperament reflected in Ling's gestures was like a flesh-and-blood human being.

Its various information and 3D stereoscopic modeling diagrams are displayed on the upper right of the mask, and the extremely complex core structure is transmitting data like water.

"You can think of me as part of this base, or as part of your brain."

Zero continued, with a humane standard smile on his face.

"I detected that the six industrial robots you appointed are aggressively developing the land next to the base."

"Based on my calculations, it's not a very good decision."

"My suggestion is to put them on standby, or look around for information, until you find the concentration point of the ore veins, and then start large-scale development."

Zero spoke in an orderly manner, and gave a few very critical suggestions.

Fang Liang thought about what it said, and then realized his reckless behavior.

If it was helpless to dig out the first batch of ore with the portable drill on his right hand at the beginning, then the four industrial robots that Fang Liang sent next would undoubtedly destroy the land around the base.

This is like drilling a big hole in the back garden of your own home. One day, you will be unable to get in, and it will even affect the construction of the next stage of facilities. This is undoubtedly a very stupid move.

Thinking of this, Fang Liang immediately issued an order, and the six industrial robots that had already drilled into the ground stopped the rapidly rotating drilling rig, climbed the rock wall with metal feet, and brought the excavated ore back to the ground.

They are different from Zero, they do not have the ability to think for themselves, and they will only follow Fang Liang's instructions unconditionally.

The energy in its body comes from solar energy, and its back has a photovoltaic panel of special material that can be deployed in a large area.

Generally speaking, even with the highest quality photovoltaic panels, the utilization rate of solar energy is only 20.00% to [-]%.

However, according to the information fed back from Fangliang's mask, the photovoltaic panels made of this special material can reach a utilization rate of 60.00%.

Although the solar energy on Mars is far inferior to that of Blue Star, with the blessing of this ultimate technology, the positive income obtained is even several times higher!
Such a high utilization rate is enough to solve the problem of energy shortage. You only need to call out the photovoltaic panels during the day to fully charge these robots. Fang Liang only needs to consider the maintenance of parts and the body.

"Zero, what should I do next?"

At this time, Fang Liang had completely trusted Zero to [-]%.

Self and it are in a sense even a one-body existence.

"I need the control rights of the origin base and the linkage machinery to make a judgment of the lowest loss, and the application has been sent."

Zero pupils flickered and his voice was light.

Fang Liang did not hesitate, and immediately agreed to an application flashed on the mask.

Afterwards, the four industrial robots that had climbed onto the ground put away their drill bits neatly, accelerated uniformly along the four planned routes, and left the mine.

The other two industrial robots continued to drill back into the ground, using their dexterous manipulators to refill the rock dust into the mine.

In the camera of the lander, the images of these industrial robots are projected onto the large screen in the central control room.

"Mr. Yu, I can now be [-]% sure that no country on Blue Star can manufacture these robots."

A scholar sighed and said firmly.

"Teacher, this is a perfect design. Regardless of the proportions and materials, I can hardly imagine what civilization created them"

Lin Lu stared at the big screen with slightly dull eyes. He studied factory industrial machinery for four years, and then transferred to the field of aviation high-precision braking machinery.

Of course he knew what such an advanced digging robot meant.

If such an advanced robot can be manufactured on Blue Star, not only can it completely replace human labor, but with such high efficiency, it is enough to develop Huaguo's industrial production to a completely different level!

And judging from the screen, the circular robot responsible for mining ore should be under the command and control of another robot.

"So what's your conclusion now?"

Yu Han's eyes were serious, and he looked at the scholars who were discussing.

"Obviously, this industrial robot is controlled by another robot. It is very likely that they belong to an alien civilization that is completely unknown to us. My proposal is to make tentative contact with them, or simply withdraw immediately. Lander, store all footage in the cloud, forget about it for decades to come."

A scholar gave his opinion. He looked around and seemed to want to say something more, but shut up anyway.

Cruel advice, but it sounds like the most reasonable solution right now.

If you contact them, who will know whether the feedback is good or bad?
Through these two robots, one can get a glimpse of how terrifying the technological level of this civilization is.

Yu Han didn't dare to use Huaguo, or even the entire Blue Star, as gambling money to gamble on an unrealistic future.

"Contacting them is undoubtedly the most stupid option!"

A young scholar who had been silent all this time stood up suddenly and strongly retorted: "Who can guarantee the safety of this option? Since this alien civilization has already developed ore on Mars, what does it mean? It means that they are either from Mars. The aborigines are either colonists, and since they can reach Mars, their original planet is likely to be near us! And it is very likely that resources are already exhausted! Do you understand the concept!"

"If we contact them rashly at this time, it may cause unimaginable and terrifying consequences."

The young scholar's face turned red, and he was obviously not used to being watched by so many eyes, but he still said firmly: "I believe that all of us here are not qualified to make this option."

"You're right, none of us are eligible."

The atmosphere was silent for a long time, Yu Han stood up from the chair, gave him an appreciative look, and at the same time gave his final solution:

"Turn on the camera on the second half of the lander body, and put the screen on the live broadcast rooms of major platforms to stabilize public opinion."

"The camera responsible for surveillance stood still and continued to collect information."

"Report immediately!"
