The new work beast is not without its shortcomings, but because of its simple function, it only takes 2 hours and a box of synthetic meat to recycle and cultivate it again. You can have as much synthetic meat as you want, and one ton of concentrated raw materials can be made.
Four to five tons of synthetic meat.
Soon the new work beast appeared in front of everyone. Not only did it solve the problem of low energy reserves, it was also larger than the first batch. It was faster, as fast as a human trot; and its strength was also improved, and it could
They can carry 50 kilograms of heavy objects. However, due to their increased size, the number of working animals in this batch is only 50.
The energy stored in the body can now allow them to work for 10 hours. After 10 hours, they need to return to the nest to replenish energy and nutrients from the nest. The replenishment process takes one hour.
The first batch of work beasts directly entered various engineering vehicles and started working. Then they saw the engineering vehicles continuously leveling the terrain and digging foundations. All the excavated earth and rocks were loaded into transport vehicles and sent to the work base for sorting.
and preliminary smelting, and then the semi-finished products are loaded into transport trucks, sent to the furnace for final processing, and then turned into various metals and building materials.
Two work trucks even began to lift prefabricated building modules and began to lay the foundation.
After watching quietly for a while, Chu Jungui finally said: "Very good!"
The wise man was refreshed, which meant that his train of thought was confirmed, and he immediately emitted a ray of light, illuminating the sky intentionally or unintentionally. While waiting for the results, it was not idle, but was preparing to carry out the third operation on the work beast.
Three improvements.
The third batch of work beasts are faster and larger, and can carry more energy accordingly. They can work for 3 days continuously, and then require 5 hours of energy replenishment. They can engage in basic operations of most equipment.
When the work plan is properly decomposed, they can also cooperate with each other to complete a more complex task: for example, building a new base.
Now dozens of three-batch work beasts have built a small production base in front of Chu Jungui. The base is fully equipped with various equipment, including power furnaces, raw material processors, smelting furnaces, organic matter editors, and manufacturing machines.
The disadvantage of working beasts is that they have no independent consciousness and no learning ability. Their intelligence actually relies on a few cells separated from the wise men. This allows them to receive instructions from the wise men and complete the corresponding work, but they cannot work independently.
.
But there is no way around it. To create a truly self-aware intelligent race is far beyond the ability of wise men. Perhaps in the future, starting from the original ecological beasts, it will be possible to cultivate new highly intelligent war beasts step by step.
variety, but that was a long time coming.
The efficiency of the work beast is limited by the speed at which the wise man distributes instructions. This is not a restriction at the moment. The new biological master brain can provide enough computing power assistance.
Chu Jungui asked Zhizhe and Le Mans to continue to improve the work beasts, and at the same time began mass production of the third batch of work beasts, and then turned to the second experimental site to see Kaitian's results.
Kaitian and Zhizhe each had one day to prepare. Zhizhe’s plan was to cooperate with Le Mans and mass-produce the work beast; Kaitian naturally did not want to lose to Wise Man, and also completed the plan preparation.
Kaitian's experimental site is 50 kilometers north of the base, near the hilly area, and the experimental site is located under a rocky hill.
There are several modified engineering vehicles parked in the experimental site. The specifications of these engineering vehicles are much larger than ordinary engineering vehicles. The chassis is carried by four pairs of 3-meter-diameter load wheels, and the vehicle body is 7 meters high.
Kaitian's eyes shot out light and landed on these two-story mechanical monsters, and then the mechanical monsters started to activate one after another.
An engineering vehicle loaded with excavation and subassembly modules drove towards the hill. The huge cutter-suction excavation module easily shattered the rocky mountain and then sucked into the vehicle body. The engineering vehicle moved forward at a speed of one meter per minute, and in the blink of an eye it was there.
A deep groove was dug out of the mountain. The rear of the engineering vehicle body suddenly opened, throwing out compressed raw material blocks with a length, width and height of 3 meters.
Two other engineering vehicles followed up and picked up the raw material blocks. One was smelted separately after simple separation, while the other directly threw the raw material blocks into a multi-functional furnace, where the raw materials were smelted, separated and recycled.
After a while, the smelted basic metals were automatically sent to the mobile base next to the experimental site, where they were made into basic alloys. The finished products are all standard metal ingots of 1 cubic meter. After several deep processing steps, they can be made.
Structural parts for starships.
Throughout the process, extremely few people were used. There was no one in the excavating engineering vehicle at all, and there was only one operator in the sorting and smelting vehicle at the rear. Only the mobile base had more people, but not more than 10, which is normal.
Under certain circumstances, 30-50 engineers are needed in a mobile base.
After watching for a while, Chu Jungui finally nodded: "Very good!"
At Kaitian's signal, a researcher brought up an instrument. The instrument was like a petri dish, with several brain-like tissues inside. Each brain was embedded with a biochip and connected together. There were data and energy sources outside the instrument.
interface.
Kaitian said: "This is a 'biological command center'. Its essence is actually taken from the brain tissue of an alien beast. It is connected to a biochip. The biochip is used to amplify its computing power, and it uses its natural thinking ability to judge and think. Alien
The intelligence of animals is not very high, so they need multiple brains to be connected in parallel to improve their intelligence. Through biochips, we can assign tasks to them and plan their behaviors, so that they can have a certain degree of independent judgment."
Kaitian's plan is essentially to create a wisdom center with certain thinking ability. The thinking method of the center is written by Li Xinyi, so even if it is based on the brain of an alien beast, it also has a certain degree of intelligence and the ability to think independently.
, can respond to changes in the environment on its own.
This hub can replace the original driver when installed on engineering vehicles, and you only need to tell them what they want to do. For example, tell it that it needs rock materials, and the engineering vehicles will go to rock-rich mountainous areas on their own to find them.
At a suitable excavation site, several engineering vehicles can cooperate with each other to complete preliminary sorting and smelting. The transport vehicle will automatically transport the materials back to the base, and as the working location of the engineering vehicle changes, the transport vehicle will respond accordingly.
Plan your own route and even find engineering vehicles on your own.
The disadvantage of the biological center is that the intelligence of the alien beasts is really low, and sometimes they lose control, such as subconsciously wanting to bite something. Most of these instinctive thoughts will be filtered by the biological chip, but occasionally there will be fish that slip through the net. After all,
The girl only spent one day building the program.
Chu Jungui was very satisfied. The wise man added a group of workers to the base who were tireless, would not complain, and would never receive a salary. Kaitian's plan was to make all kinds of engineering equipment move by themselves, pretending that there were people operating it.
On Planet 4, where the ion storm was raging and almost all electronic equipment could not operate, Chu Jungui finally saw a hint of automatic production.
Chu Jungui opened the map, glanced at it for a moment, and pointed to 120 kilometers northeast of the base: "We can try to build a new base here, using this plan."
The place Chu Jungui pointed to was already a hilly area, a clearing near the mountainous area, surrounded by a large forest. This area had been explored, and there were veins of copper and iron underneath.
Chu Jungui gave the order, and the entire No. 2 base started moving. A large number of engineering vehicles and 5 Arks poured out of the base and quickly arrived at the target area.
Two engineering vehicles parked at the edge of the forest, unfolded on the spot, and transformed into a mobile biological factory. Each biological factory has ten culture tanks, and at the same time began to cultivate the mother body of the working beast. The unmanned transport vehicle controlled by the biological center
Synthetic meat is dumped in vacant lots.
2 hours later, a full 20 nests were built, waiting for the worker beasts to hatch. The wise man created a thousand worker beasts in one breath. This was only the first wave, and the biological factory behind was still making new ones.
's lair.
The transport convoy came again and poured out more synthetic meat. However, there were not many raw materials stored in the base, and it could maintain up to 5,000 workers. At this point, Chu Jungui finally understood the meaning of the wise man having more meat.
Some of several large engineering vehicles began to dig into the mountains, while others cut down forests and collected organic raw materials. Two mobile bases were working hard to process building material cubes, and special engineering vehicles were laying the foundation. The prototype of a base was gradually revealed.
There are basically no people in the entire busy scene. The only place with many people is the assembly base, where a new and improved engineering vehicle is being assembled. The size of the new engineering vehicle is quite exaggerated, consisting of five pairs of 5-meter-diameter load-bearing vehicles.
The vehicle is wheel-bearing, and the vehicle body is three stories high. The width of the excavation work surface in front is more than 15 meters. The excavation belt is divided into upper and lower two, and the height of the work surface is more than 10 meters. The engineering vehicle is powered by 4 large power furnaces, with a total power of
With over one million kilowatts, digging mountains is as easy as digging sand piles.
Although the new engineering vehicle is not as big as the engineering Ark, it is a machine specialized in digging mountains. Its cost is much lower than that of the engineering Ark, and its efficiency is several times that of the Ark. The production capacity of building one engineering Ark is enough to build 20 vehicles.
Engineering vehicle.
The prototype of a huge base slowly emerged, and there were less than 500 busy people on the entire base, 300 of whom were soldiers, responsible for garrisoning the two armed arks and serving as guards.
At this time, as the first batch of work beasts hatched, a large number of engineering vehicles parked in the open space began to start, and the progress of the base construction suddenly accelerated.
Chu Jungui stood on a high place, overlooking the new base. In the past few hours, the outline of the new base had already come out, and more and more construction vehicles were started. In the past, there were not tens of thousands of people working together.
, there will be no such progress at all.
With the manpower problem solved and endless energy available, Chu Jungui had a vague feeling that he was about to take off.
