468 Entering the Yuri Star Circle

Since Zhuo Ziqiang asked this question, Christie explained the matter from beginning to end.

"In fact, for intelligent robots like Liu Xiaolei, their bodies and intelligence are not static, and they can be modified the day after tomorrow. But this kind of transformation is also very difficult, except that the rare mineral silver must be used. In addition, extremely high technical means are required..."

Zhuo Ziqiang listened and asked: "It seems that the Longyun just happened to meet these two conditions at the same time, so you started to remodel them again without telling me?"

Christie nodded and continued: "Besides being used in various industrial productions, silver, a mineral, has many functions. In addition to the effects of disinfection and poison testing that you know, it also has the effect of purification and refining. It is suitable for many high-tech fields, so the supply is in short supply, and it has changed from an ordinary mineral to an extremely sought-after strategic material."

"Are you saying that silver is an essential thing to improve Liu Xiaolei's intelligence?" Zhuo Ziqiang finally figured it out now, no wonder those robots regard silver as a treasure. necessities.

"Yes! In fact, using silver to transform robots consumes a lot of silver. A robot generally consumes hundreds of tons of silver, which is also the main reason for the shortage of silver. You may not know that millions of years ago, there was There is an empire rich in the world, in order to build a fully intelligent robot army, I don’t know how many billions of tons of silver were spent. Although it once dominated one side, the silver that disappeared will never come back. "Christie said with some emotion.

Zhuo Ziqiang widened his eyes and said, "You mean that every robot in his army is strengthened with silver?"

"You're right. The robot's body was originally superior to that of ordinary people. After being strengthened again, its physical fitness has reached an unprecedented height, and its combat capability has increased many times. Relying on this super army, this empire has swept countless A large star circle, whose territory exceeds [-] million light-years, can be regarded as the leading big-name empire in the universe. However, his method was followed by many countries, and they also began to increase a large number of strengthened robot troops. In the end, hundreds of The two interstellar empires united to carry out counterattacks against this great empire, which eventually led to the gradual decline of this old empire. As a result, the material silver was almost consumed, and now it has become a peerless treasure among minerals. Tons can be sold at sky-high prices." Christie explained the reasons for the scarcity of silver.

Zhuo Ziqiang still doesn't quite understand, it just enhances the physical fitness of the robot, is it worth it?He could tell from Liu Xiaolei and Ye Chuchu that things were definitely not that simple.

Christie's following words explained Zhuo Ziqiang's doubts.

"The robot strengthened by silver is not just to enhance the robot's physical function, more importantly, the silver ions in the silver can remove the impurities inside the robot. These impurities include redundant substances and excess metals produced during manufacturing. Particles, these impurities affect the operation of robots all the time, especially their calculation methods and micro-processing capabilities will be affected. After these impurities are removed, these robots are more humane and emotional, almost like real humans There's no difference, even they have real human emotions..."

"You won't tell the truth!? Will they have human emotions?" Zhuo Ziqiang could hardly believe his ears. A simulation robot can be easily made, but it is almost impossible for them to have human emotions. Tan.

Christie said with certainty: "That's right. Before they were strengthened by silver, they just used programs to create similar emotional expressions, but they were generated under the control of the program. But after strengthening, their emotions are Automatically generated, it is no different from a real human being."

Zhuo Ziqiang glanced at Ye Chuchu not far away, has this robot become half a real person now?In other words, she has become a robot no different from a real person?So is she now a robot or a human?For a moment, his mind was in turmoil.

"But don't worry, even if they are close to real humans, their loyalty to you will not change because of this. Even if you order them to die immediately, they will not even frown." Seeing Zhuo Ziqiang's distressed expression, Christie thought that he was afraid that the enhanced robot would not obey his command, so she relieved him.

"This is actually a good thing, so why haven't you three told me? What are you afraid of?" Zhuo Ziqiang never understood this.

Christie laughed and said, "The reason why I don't want to let you know about this first is because I am afraid that you will worry that the strengthened ones will no longer listen to your command. Second, this matter is actually very risky. Although the strengthening process is very safe, accidents are prone to occur in the last step. As far as I know, the probability of killing the robot at the last moment is as high as 30.00%. That is to say, the probability that each robot can pass the last level Only 60.00% five. If we had let you know about this first, you probably wouldn't have let them continue."

After hearing this, Zhuo Ziqiang asked nervously, "Then have they passed the final test?"

"If I haven't passed the last level, would I still say these words to you? I don't know if it's the luck of the two of them, or the performance of the Dragon Cloud is extremely advanced. Both of them have successfully passed the level. Now They are almost real human beings." Christie seemed to be a little scared, if something happened to Liu Xiaolei and Ye Chuchu, how would she explain to Zhuo Ziqiang?

Having said that, Zhuo Ziqiang basically understood what was going on. Although Liu Xiaolei and Ye Chuchu were two robots, they always dreamed of having everything a real human being could, so they did not hesitate to risk death to strengthen themselves with silver.It's just that they were afraid that Zhuo Ziqiang would prevent them from doing so, so they secretly begged Christie to help them, bypassing the captain Zhuo Ziqiang, and completing their strengthening through Christie, the former captain who had limited authority on the Dragon Cloud process.

"Actually, the reason why I took the risk to help them strengthen themselves is also for your own good. After you enter space, there are many places where you need to employ people, but you don't have any people who can be used at all. There are only some rigid thinking With these robots, how can you travel into space?" Christie pointed out Zhuo Ziqiang's current shortcomings.

Zhuo Ziqiang took Christie's words very seriously. He has only Christie by his side who can help. Tian Jing and the others really can't take on big responsibilities. Besides, he only has Liu Xiaolei and other robots.

When he has a large fleet in the future, although he can appoint a robot captain, who will be the commander of the fleet?

Of course he himself can be the commander of a fleet, but has he always had only one fleet?Even if only one fleet is formed, when there are too many warships, who should be the commander of the following squadron?Although it is possible to use robots as captains, it is a bit too small to use these robots as squadron commanders. In the face of complex and large-scale wars, it is difficult for a robot to deal with various situations no matter what.

Now with Liu Xiaolei and Ye Chuchu, two robots with rich knowledge and super memory, he can form at least three fleets.Since the two of them have everything a human being has, why should he worry about it?

Now it is not far from the Yuri star circle. Whether it is to establish a faction or form a team, there must be a few capable leaders. At this moment, Liu Xiaolei and Ye Chuchu have just completed the strengthening process, which is really timely!

Thinking of this, Zhuo Ziqiang beckoned to Ye Chuchu who was in the distance.He didn't ask her about the matter of strengthening her body, but said to her: "In the future, you have to work harder, and together with Xiaolei, enter the instructor system to learn more knowledge, so that I can assign more training to you. Work. In the future, I will appropriately reduce the study time for entering the instructor system so that you can get exercise as soon as possible. You should cherish this opportunity and improve yourself as soon as possible, understand?"

Ye Chuchu quickly replied: "Yes, I will definitely satisfy the boss!"

Zhuo Ziqiang saw that she agreed very readily, and asked her in a low voice: "Does Yuanhang have the intention to strengthen it as well?"

"Boss, he also has this idea, but he doesn't know what you mean, so he dare not make such a request to you! If you agree, he will agree [-]%, because this is his biggest dream!" Ye Chuchu excitedly Said.

"Well, from today onwards, let him start strengthening his body. Let Christie handle this matter. Isn't she meddling? Then let her take care of it!" Zhuo Ziqiang finished speaking and glanced at Christie. .

Christie didn't mean to say anything about this job, but she asked Zhuo Ziqiang with some puzzlement: "Aren't you afraid that he will strengthen the failure?"

Zhuo Ziqiang shook his head and said: "I thought about it just now. In fact, the 60.00% success rate you said may be just a previous probability. Now, the success rate may have become 90.00% or [-]%! If you immediately Yuanhang can be strengthened successfully this time, I plan to use half of our silver inventory to strengthen our own robots, and the remaining half will be saved for emergencies!"

After hearing Zhuo Ziqiang's words, Christie seemed a little hesitant. She said, "The rarity of silver is far beyond your expectations. Even if someone gets a little silver, at most it will only strengthen one or two super robots and train him into his own. Left and right arms, very few people strengthen ten or eight robots at the same time, that would be too wasteful!"

Zhuo Ziqiang waved his hand vigorously: "The big deal is that when we return to the earth, we will buy all the silver mines on the earth. I will exchange one ton of gold for their one ton of silver. Change!"

Since the silver mines on the earth are still being produced, these rare materials must not be wasted. The annual production of more than 1 tons is enough for him to be extravagant.

"Since you said so, it's up to you! When you return to Earth next time, you will bring tens of thousands of tons of gold with you, and use this gold to buy all the silver mines on Earth for your use." Christie felt that since you only need If the other party is willing to exchange silver for gold, then there is no such thing as taking advantage of a disadvantage.

Soon to enter the Yuri star circle, Zhuo Ziqiang gave Liu Xiaolei and Ye Chuchu the opportunity to study in the instructor system in order to allow Liu Xiaolei and Ye Chuchu to appear in front of the Yuri people as capable generals, and worked day and night. Let them go inside and train hard.

And he himself was free for a few days, and made some preliminary assumptions and plans for the new life to come.Although the Dragon Cloud and their people are capable, but according to Vincent who drove him there, the Yuri Star Circle is really a place of Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, definitely not a place where ordinary people can gain a foothold.It's not easy to get ahead without resorting to thunderous means to open up the situation there.

Although there are only a dozen or so livable planets in the Yuri star circle, it covers an extremely vast area, with a range exceeding [-] light years, and the number of planets with various resources available exceeds [-].

This place is located between the Leo Family Star Circle and the Sophie Empire. What Zhuo Ziqiang doesn't understand is why neither the Leo Family Star Circle nor the Sophie Empire have sent a fleet to conquer this area?

Judging from the number of resource planets belonging to the Yuri star circle, ten livable planets only have 1 resource planets, which is really a little less.According to Christie, generally speaking, only one livable planet like Earth can appear in [-] resource planets, but the ratio in Yuri's star circle is ten times lower.It can be seen from this that the Yuri star circle is really relatively barren.

There are countless planets with various minerals, but planets with intelligent life forms like the earth, or planets suitable for intelligent life forms are much rarer.

This has created such a situation that when an intelligent creature develops to a certain level, it will inevitably mine the minerals on the surrounding planets extensively, and use the minerals on these countless planets to supply the consumption of the parent star.

Christie once said that she had seen a planet before, and the entire surface of the planet was covered with a protective shield made of metal to resist the asteroid impact that may be rarely encountered once in tens of millions of years. I didn't even dare to think about it.

Zhuo Ziqiang didn't think about it that way. As long as he can find a few planets that produce oil, he will be basically satisfied. At that time, sending a few warships to mine all the oil on them will be enough to upgrade the Dragon Cloud two or three levels up.

And the Dragon Cloud, which has been upgraded two or three levels, is not comparable to the current Dragon Cloud. At least in this Yuri star circle, he can walk sideways.

After passing through a wormhole again, according to the map Vincent gave him, Zhuo Ziqiang has actually entered the Yuri star circle.

He looked at the forward route on the map, and was a little puzzled. The circuit diagram drawn on it was twists and turns, not at all like a map for interstellar navigation, but more like a maze map in a forest.

"The space is empty. Why don't you fly forward instead of going around the bend?" Zhuo Ziqiang was very puzzled after studying the map carefully.

Soon he understood why, and not long after passing through the wormhole, the siren sounded from the Dragon Cloud: "Report to the boss, a meteorite belt is found directly ahead, it is recommended to detour!"

"Quick, turn off the hyperspace engine immediately, change the course, and avoid these meteorite belts!" Zhuo Ziqiang hurriedly issued an order.

At the same time, he looked at the map and found that there was indeed a bend here on the map, and it turned out that it was to avoid the meteorite belt.

During the next voyage, Zhuo Ziqiang ordered to change the course from time to time to avoid meteorite belts one after another.

"I just understand now! No wonder neither the Sophie Empire nor the Leo family's star circle attacked here, it turned out to be the reason!" Zhuo Ziqiang suddenly realized.

This vast area is scattered with meteorite belts. If a war is launched here, it is almost equivalent to a strong attack on Liangshan Po, which is [-] miles away.

Because these meteorite belts are too many and too scattered, only the Yuri local group forces who fly here all the year round know these meteorite belts well. If others come here, they might rush into the meteorite belts. Bring it, and it will inevitably suffer heavy losses.

Moreover, there are many meteorite belts, which have also caused severe restrictions on large-scale battles. On the contrary, small fleets are more likely to be attacked and harassed. This may be the reason why the Yuri Star Circle has always existed.

The map Vincent gave Zhuo Ziqiang, although there is generally no problem, but there are many places that are not completely correct, presumably caused by the constant movement of the meteorite belt.

"How did these meteorites come from? Logically speaking, shouldn't they be gradually attracted together to form new planets? How come there are so many meteorites here?" Zhuo Ziqiang could only ask again for such a question Christy is gone.

Christie thought for a while and replied: "These meteorites are most likely a major war that took place not long ago. This war directly caused the destruction of several planets, and the fragments of these destroyed planets formed these meteorites. According to my It is estimated that this war will not exceed 10 years, otherwise these meteorites may have become new planets."

Zhuo Ziqiang seemed to have a clear understanding. This area is just at the junction of the Sophie Empire and the Leo family star circle, so the origin of these meteorites is self-evident.

"Is it really that powerful? It can actually destroy a planet. What kind of weapon is this?" Zhuo Ziqiang couldn't help but wondered when he thought of this.

Christie said with a smile: "When civilization develops to a certain level, there will always be some crazy actions, just like nuclear weapons on the earth. When it reaches a certain level, such weapons of mass destruction must be completely banned, so you don't There is a fear of being attacked by such a weapon."
