"Very good, no one was injured or killed, and I have the spaceship in hand. Now we have to leave this planet, and that's not up to you."

Li Wenyuan in the virtual world was quite happy. Under his operation, these alien visitors successfully escaped from the spacecraft and had to make an emergency landing on the surface.

It’s not that I am greedy for the technology of the spaceship. After scanning, the scientific research division believes that there is no need to retain this spaceship, but it can provide a new concept of ship type.

As a result, there is an additional technology in the technology tree that has been developed: the research ship.

He did this to prevent the possible "crash signal" after the spacecraft crashed from attracting the aliens' country to send people to search for their traces.

After taking full control of the spacecraft, he will arrange for the spacecraft to travel to different galaxies to create the illusion that "everything is normal on the spacecraft" until the fuel is exhausted.

As for why these aliens were left alive...

"After all, I am not a murderer. As long as there is no threat to me and the coordinates here are not exposed, it is not impossible to spare their lives, but of course it is not free..."

Li Wenyuan's eyes were bright, and he controlled the synthetic man to follow the aliens at a distance, as if he wanted to discover something by following them.

"The information on the spacecraft shows that this group of people is an archaeological team, led by a professor and several students, trying to excavate ancient ruins on a planet with traces of civilization..."

"I do lack expert-like roles here, and I cannot systematically and efficiently excavate large areas of ruins on the planet. If these people really have that ability, then it is not impossible to hire them to work for me..."

There are a lot of damaged facilities and lost ruins on this planet. Those damaged facilities are okay and are marked in the system.

But Li Wenyuan was completely helpless about the lost ruins. He was not an archaeologist, and the database did not tell him how to properly excavate those ruins.

He once tried to control several synths to violently excavate, but was instantly killed by self-defense equipment that even he couldn't understand, and had to stop the excavation work.

But now that we have this group of people, even if they are sparse, they can make up for the shortage of archaeological manpower with the help of synthetic humans.

While Li Wenyuan didn't have many other people, he had a lot of synthetic people.

"But we have to first see if they are just people seeking fame and reputation... If I remember correctly, there is a ruins nearby. If they can really find something, then it might not be a bad idea to meet them..."

After pondering, Li Wenyuan turned his attention to himself.

After the full operation of the industrial division, the reinforced alloy required to repair the "Dimensional Manufacturing Machine" has been produced. For this reason, he did not know how many days of digging through garbage to get the raw materials.

And Lilian has not missed out on Zero's output. Since that day, she has taken some time every day to pray devoutly.

Li Wenyuan also secretly observed Lilian's prayers and found that she was really just kneeling on the ground, clasping her hands together, and silently reciting incomprehensible words such as God, redemption, and end.

Then Zero was spread into the surrounding air through her breathing.

The fluoroscopic scan of the synthetic human showed that Zero appeared directly in Lillian's body, rather than being produced from an organ.

This kind of thing that subverted the understanding of physics shocked Li Wenyuan at first, but he soon stopped caring about it.

He himself traveled through time, is there anything more magical than this?

Moreover, Lilian now praises "Lord Guardian" every time she prays, which gives Li Wenyuan rare spiritual comfort after work.

Although his body is already a program, his consciousness is still not much different from when he was a human.

In the past, he was too busy with many chores and had no time to think, but once in a while he calmed down, it was inevitable that he would feel a little lonely.

Now that Lillian is the mascot, he thinks it's pretty good.

"Okay, now we have to command the synths to move the bricks... When the 'Dimensional Manufacturing Machine' is repaired and resources are abundant, the 'Construction Robot' on the technology tree can also be put into production!"

"Everyone, get active! The planet needs you! Only when the planet gets better can you have a better working environment and create more value!"

Li Wenyuan muttered words of inspiration to himself into the empty virtual space, and then continued to control a large number of synthesizers, and began to carry reinforced alloys to the "dimensional manufacturing machine" that needed to be repaired.

While he was controlling the synthetic man and starting work in full swing, the professor led his four students in an artificial forest and were trekking through it.

Because they entered the escape capsule too hastily and lost control of the spacecraft, they failed to bring a lot of equipment with them.

Now, their goal has long since changed from "excavating ancient ruins" to "finding a way to leave."

After all, no one could have imagined that such an accident would happen again.

While walking, Cowper suddenly asked:

"...Professor, what do you think happened to our spaceship? Was it hacked?"

His question also caused confusion among everyone.

No one would believe that an artificial intelligence that was fine one minute would become inexplicably unresponsive the next moment.

As Cowper said, everyone thought it was a hacker.

"Your idea is reasonable, but... what's the reason? Where's the source? We need a complete chain to form a possible result. What's your idea?" the professor said while pushing aside the bushes in front of him.

Cowper thought for a moment and expressed his opinion:

"Before approaching the planet, we conducted a rough scan. We cannot say that it is 100% accurate, but at least we confirmed that there are no traces of a large number of biological activities."

"There are a lot of space junk and abandoned space stations floating in this galaxy, and there are also ruins and buildings visible to the naked eye on the surface, indicating that they were once an interstellar civilization, but they declined for unknown reasons."

"Based on past experience, the relics of these civilizations usually have some degree of self-defense means, and they can still remain a threat even after millions of years."

"I believe that our spacecraft was subject to indiscriminate electronic intrusion."

The advancing professor nodded and said: "Indeed, there may be an uncontrolled electronic network on this planet, and our spacecraft was attacked as soon as it approached its range of influence."

"But now a more serious problem has come. The protection level of my scientific research ship is second to none even among adventurers, but in fact we did not receive any warning, and the spacecraft was already out of control."

"There is generally only one possibility in this situation, and that is that the other party's technological level is much higher than ours, and it can easily break the protection of the spacecraft."

"Do you understand what I mean?"

The professor's words caused everyone to fall into silence. After a while, the fat man in the team said with difficulty:

"Meaning that the danger we face...could be terrifying?"

The professor nodded expressionlessly and said: "This is a possibility. The more advanced the technology, the more things will happen beyond our knowledge. Any out-of-control robot pet here may tear us all apart."

Into pieces. But..."

"——But this also means that we may have an extremely rich harvest, which may be lost technology, rare resources, or even powerful lost battleships." Cowper took over the professor's words and attracted praise.

gaze.

The young man in the team who had always been at odds with Cowper shouted in surprise: "Are you crazy? Are you planning to contact those horrific ruins? Shouldn't we find a way to leave first?"

"I think the way to leave is in those ruins!" Cowper's eyes were burning with persistence, as if nothing could stop his thoughts.

"There are so many ruins on this planet. It's impossible not to have what we need. As long as we find the right way to enter, we will be able to leave here sooner or later!"

"You are crazy! I think you are just for your father's illusory ideal! I will never enter those ruins!"

Seeing that the two were about to quarrel again, the professor stepped forward in time.

"Okay, everyone, calm down! Whether it's walking around the ruins or exploring the ruins, there's not enough time today! We have to hurry up and find a camping place!"

The team fell into silence again. At this time, the fat man at the back suddenly felt cold, as if he was being targeted by something.

When he looked back, he was so frightened that he froze in place.

In the gap in the forest, a huge black figure slowly raised his body, and his bright red eyes were fixed on the fat man, as if he was seeing a piece of delicious fat.
