Super Mothership

The Bridge of the Ranger.

"What? You said the control core disappeared?" The two captains said in amazement after listening to the report below.

"Yes! After careful identification, the control cores of these small robots... are all gone!" The reporter was also incredulous.

Then he waved to show a stereoscopic three-dimensional projection of a small robot.

"After our thorough scan, the technological content of these robots, how can I say it... is extremely common! The materials used are not special in any way, even our products from hundreds of years ago are not as good, we can say that they have been completely analyzed. structure and manufacturing principles.

But strangely, we didn't find any communication devices in them, not even suspected ones! Also, look at this location..." The reporter pointed to a groove in the center of the robot's brain patch.

"Here, we're guessing that there should have been a control core, but now...it's gone! It's the same with all control cores in all robots.

There is no trace of self-destruction, and there is no self-destruction residue, and the control core disappears completely like it has evaporated..."

The two captains frowned deeply upon hearing this.

This is too weird!

No communication equipment? The control core also disappeared inexplicably?

Could it be that such a tiny chip is both a control core and a communication device? !

Just kidding! An advanced civilization with this technology should be able to destroy itself with one shot, right? Who still has the heart to accompany you to ride horses and fight here?

"Also, our sociologists have made a surprising discovery after analyzing certain behavioral characteristics of these robots!" the man continued.

The Ranger is a relatively special type of ship in the Gemini civilization. In order to meet the needs of long interstellar voyages and independent expeditions, it pays more attention to the speed and comprehensive performance of the spacecraft. It has almost no shortcomings and is a kind of excellent performance. Multipurpose frigate.

And in order to deal with various emergencies, in addition to being equipped with Star Wars landing craft, there are also a small number of fleet experts in various fields.

"Oh? What did they find?" the Sea Clan captain asked.

"Please look at this picture!" Following the man's words, a picture popped up in front of everyone.

It was a small battlefield, full of broken limbs, broken arms and machine wreckage, and the battle was obviously nearing its end, with seven or eight hounds slowly approaching the last remaining small robot.

The robot seemed to understand that it was powerless to resist, dropped its weapon and drew a strange cross on its chest, and then chose to self-destruct when a hound approached.

Then the screen switches to different battlefields, and the small robots on the screen always make all kinds of weird ritual actions.

"Does this look like a religious gesture?"

"Yes, and surprisingly, there is a record in our civilization database! It's a sectarian gesture called Christianity!"

"Oh? Which civilization does this sect belong to?" The Yu clan captain's eyes lit up. The other party finally leaked the horse?

"Yes... Earth civilization!"

What? Earth civilization? !

The two captains were immediately stunned! What is this God unfolding?

"You mean... Is it possible that we are fighting against Earth civilization?" The captain of the sea clan looked ashen,

He decided that if his subordinates dared to say so, he would immediately slap him with a big ear.

Are you insulting my intelligence?

"No no! Of course we don't think so, but the other party is very likely to coerce or control the earthlings to perform remote control!" The subordinate quickly explained that this master's temper is notoriously bad.

"Oh? If you say that... there is indeed such a possibility! In this way, so many operators from the other party can explain it." The captain of the feather clan nodded.

Waving the subordinate to step down, the captain of the sea clan looked at his companion, "Even so, how did they communicate? How did the control core disappear? It's very strange!"

"Weird? Speaking of which... do you remember what the other party said before?" The Yu clan captain pondered.

"What?"

"He said, there is no communication at all, and...soul technology!"

"What... what?!" The Sea Clan captain was stunned, "You don't think this is true, do you?"

"Originally, I naturally didn't believe it, but... from the current situation, his statement is somewhat credible." The Yu Clan captain looked enlightened.

"How to say?"

"If the characteristic technology of the Ante Empire is really the so-called soul technology, then... the empty slot of the robot may be something like a soul crystal or a spiritual body. Once the robot dies, the soul will dissipate at the same time... …

This would explain how the control core disappeared.

And the connection between them...maybe through something like telepathy or spiritual communication...

We have not encountered this kind of civilization. For example, the Spree civilization that has been eliminated by us. Their civilization individuals are born with strong spiritual power and can achieve short-distance telepathy. If this technology develops to the extreme, maybe This is a strange way of communicating!

Then it makes sense that the other party's robot has no communication equipment. "

"This..." The Sea Clan captain looked shocked.

"Besides, why did the other party kill hundreds of thousands of Earthlings in advance? I am afraid that in addition to testing us, it is very likely... to collect the souls of Earthlings to make weapons!

So these robots will show the characteristics of people on earth.

In other words, the earth has now become the soul harvesting ground of the Ante Empire! As long as they keep killing, they can get a steady stream of highly intelligent soldiers!

Think about it, if you destroy a planet, you can get billions of free high-intelligence combatants and labor. How low should their war costs be? How terrible is the war potential?

If you speculate in this way, the Ante Empire...maybe a predatory civilization that feeds on souls! "The Feather Clan captain's eyes shone with a gleam that could see through everything.

"Hi!" The Sea Clan captain took a breath. Thinking about this kind of weird civilization that uses warfare to support warfare makes people feel chills in the bottom of their hearts!

"There really is such an incredible civilization in this world?" The captain of the Sea Clan was still a little skeptical.

"Maybe not under normal circumstances, but what if the source of their soul technology is a cosmic wonder?

Cosmic wonders are all kinds of strange environments in the boundless universe, strange objects that have been bred for hundreds of millions of years. It is said that their formation also involves the mysteries of four dimensions and even higher latitudes!

These strange objects have various strange abilities. Although most of them have a small scope of action and are even one-time consumables, some powerful strange objects can even affect the development process of an entire civilization, giving civilization a great help.

I doubt that the source of their soul technology is this powerful civilization-enhanced strange thing? "

"Uh... It's not that there is no such possibility." The captain of the sea clan finally shook.

"Then what should we do now? According to this speculation, the other party's soul technology is very tricky! We have never encountered this type of enemy at all."

"Well... Immediately attack the enemy al-Qaeda! In any case, we have to test out more methods for the opponent to assess the power of this soul technology!"

"Okay! Understood, I'll make arrangements immediately!"

...

Outside the Callisto base of the Gemini civilization.

A collection vehicle was working, and a huge shovel shoveled soil and rocks rich in various minerals to the front of the vehicle.

At this moment, a thumb-sized black puff rock rolled and lay down in front of the road ahead of the collecting vehicle.

Soon, the collection truck shoveled the inconspicuous piece of rock and other soil into the fully sealed collection box.

The collected wreckage may be inspected by the other party using eighteen martial arts, but it is not necessary to use atomic-level inspection methods for every piece of ore, right?

Soon after, the collection truck drove into the base with a full car of materials. When passing through the entrance of the base, a red laser wall scanned the collection vehicle thoroughly from top to bottom to confirm whether there was any foreign matter stuck on the vehicle. .

"Check completed!" The system prompt sounded, and then the car quickly drove into the smelting base in the base...

Half an hour later, a small silver spider crawled out of the smelting base, and it was still a little hot and smoking, but the smelting temperature of thousands of degrees was just a sauna for the mech.

It cooled down quickly, then slowly became transparent, and began to clamber towards a building in the center...

...

"Your Excellency Captain, the other party has assembled thousands of hounds and is marching towards our camouflaged base group! It is expected to arrive at our cordon in 3 hours!"

"Oh, have you finally made a move? Then... let the Earth Defense Forces come on stage, those guys can't wait!" Nie Yun controlled the sneaked little spider to play "Assassin's Creed", and casually replied without looking up. a sentence.

"clear!"

After the initial mutual testing, the battle of Callisto has also officially escalated!

...

Earth Defense Force headquarters.

Here has entered the highest state of war!

However, unlike the hustle and bustle of ordinary military bases before the war, the headquarters of the Earth Defense Force's Demon Capital here is silent and crowded!

Except for the basic guards, everyone has entered the virtual world, and even the combat plan is carried out in a specially opened virtual combat conference room.

The first batch of the Earth Defense Forces to obtain helmets have now been completely captured by virtual technology, and it can be said that they cannot stop! Almost all strategy meetings are now held in the virtual world, because it is so convenient!

There is no way, do you choose to use the sand table to simulate the battle situation, or choose to wave your hands, the torrent of information rushes in, and instantly gain the wonderful experience of controlling the overall situation?

Even if you know that you shouldn't be overly dependent on other people's military equipment, who can resist this temptation?

Starting from the scientific and military circles, the top-down transformation of the earth has quietly begun...

Nie Yun is taking this opportunity to deepen the technological dependence of the people on the ghost captain through the carefully created virtual world and the infinite currency financial system...
