Become The Guard AI Of The Lost Civilization After Transmigration-Chapter 15
Chapter 15
“Not bad, not a single person was injured or killed, and the spaceship is now in my hands. Now, whether you can leave this planet or not will not be up to you.”
In the virtual world, Li Wenyuan was quite pleased. Under his control, this group of alien visitors had successfully left the spaceship and were forced to land.
It wasn’t that he was interested in the spaceship’s technology. After scanning it, the research zone determined that there was no need to keep the spaceship, but it could provide a new spaceship-type concept.
With that, an additional technology had been developed in the technology tree, the research ship.
What Li Wenyuan was trying to do was to prevent the distress signal that might be sent when the spaceship crashed from attracting people from the country of these aliens to search for their traces.
After taking full control of the spaceship, he would arrange for the spaceship to travel to different galaxies to create the illusion that “everything was normal” until the fuel was exhausted.
As for why he wanted to keep these aliens alive…
“After all, I’m not a murderer. As long as they don’t pose a threat to me and don’t reveal the coordinates of my location, I can spare their lives. But of course, it’s not for free…”
Li Wenyuan’s eyes were bright as he controlled the synthetic humanoids to follow the aliens from a distance as if he wanted to find out something by doing so.
“According to the information on the spaceship, this group of people is an archeological team led by a professor. They are trying to excavate ancient ruins on planets with traces of civilization… I’m really lacking experts here, which causes my inability to systematically and efficiently excavate the large ruins on the planet. If these people really have that kind of ability, then it’s not impossible to hire them to work for me…”
There were many damaged facilities and lost ruins on this planet. Never mind the damaged facilities since they were all marked in the system, but Li Wenyuan simply couldn’t do anything about the lost ruins. After all, he wasn’t an archaeologist, and the database didn’t tell him how to excavate the ruins reasonably.
He had tried to control a few synthetic humanoids to excavate by force, but they were all instantly killed by self-defense equipment that he could not understand. As a result, he had no choice but to stop the excavations.
But now, with these people, although their number was small, the synthetic humanoids could make up for the lack of archeologists.
Li Wenyuan didn’t have many other things, but he had many synthetic humanoids.
“But I have to first see if they’re just people fishing for fame… If I remember correctly, there’s a ruin nearby. If they can really find something, it’s not a bad idea to meet them…”
After making up his mind, Li Wenyuan turned his attention to himself.
After the full operation of the industrial zone, the strengthened alloy needed to repair the dimensions creation device had been produced. For this, he had gone through countless garbage to gather enough raw materials.
Lilian didn’t miss out on Czero’s production. Since that day, she would take some time every day to pray.
Li Wenyuan had also secretly observed Lilian’s prayers and found that she was really just kneeling on the ground with her hands clasped together, silently chanting inexplicable words such as God, redemption, and the end.
Then, Czero would be scattered into the air by her breathing.
An X-ray scan by a synthetic humanoid showed that Czero appeared directly in her body instead of being produced from an organ.
Seeing something like this that defied the laws of physics, Li Wenyuan was shocked at first, but he soon stopped thinking about it.
After all, he himself had transmigrated to this world. Was there anything more magical than this?
Besides, Lilian would praise the Administrator every time she prayed now, which gave Li Wenyuan a rare spiritual comfort.
Although his body was already a program, his consciousness was not much different from when he was a human.
Previously, he had been so busy with many miscellaneous things that he had no time to think. However, when he occasionally had time to himself, he did feel a little lonely.
Now that he had Lilian, a mascot, to accompany him, he felt that it was pretty good.
“Alright, it’s time to command the synthetic humanoids to work… When the dimensions creation device is repaired and there are sufficient resources, the construction robots on the technology tree can also be put into production! Everyone, liven up! The planet needs you! Only when the planet gets better will you have a better working environment and create more value!” Li Wenyuan mumbled some encouraging words to himself in the empty virtual space.
Then, he continued to control a large number of synthetic humanoids and began to transport the strengthened alloy to the dimensions creation device that needed to be repaired.
While he was controlling the synthetic humanoids, the professor was leading his four students through an artificial forest.
As they had entered the escape capsule in a hurry and lost control of the spaceship, they had not been able to bring along many pieces of equipment.
And now, their goal had long changed from “excavating ancient ruins” to “finding a way to leave”.
After all, no one had expected such an accident to happen.
As they advanced, Cooper suddenly asked, “Professor, what do you think happened to our spaceship? Did it get hacked?”
“Your thinking is not without reason, but … What was the reason? Where was the source? We need a complete chain to form a possible result. What’s your idea?”
His question was everyone’s question.
No one would believe that an AI that was still fine a minute ago would inexplicably be ineffective the next moment.
Just as Cooper said, everyone thought it was the work of a hacker.
“Your thinking makes sense, but… What is the reason? Where is the source? We need a complete chain to form a possible result. Where does your idea come from?” The professor said as he pushed away the bushes in front of him.
Cooper thought for a while and said, “We did a rough scan before we got close to the planet. It’s not 100% accurate, but at least we confirmed that there are no traces of large amounts of living creatures.”
“There are large amounts of space garbage and abandoned space stations floating in this galaxy. There are also visible ruins and buildings on the surface of this planet, indicating that there was once an interstellar civilization, but for some reason, they have declined.”
“According to experience, the ruins of these civilizations usually have some degree of self-defense, and they can remain a threat even after a million years. I think that our spaceship has been indiscriminately invaded by electronics.”
“Indeed,” The professor nodded, “There might be an uncontrollable electronic network on this planet. Our spaceship was attacked as soon as we got close to its range of influence.”
“But now there’s a more serious problem. My research spaceship’s defense level is second to none even among the adventurers, yet in fact, we didn’t receive any alarms before the spaceship lost control.”
“There’s only one possibility for this. The other party’s technological level is much higher than ours, and they easily cracked the spaceship’s defense. Do you guys understand what I mean?”
The professor’s words made everyone fall into silence. After a while, the fat man finally said with difficulty, “It means that the danger we’re facing… might be very terrifying?”
The professor nodded expressionlessly and said, “This is a possibility. The more advanced technology is, the more things that are beyond our knowledge will exist here. Any robot pet that goes out of control here could tear all of us to pieces, but…”
“But this also means that we may have a very rich harvest. It may be lost technology, rare resources, or even a powerful lost battle hip,” Cooper finished the professor’s sentence and received a look of approval.
The young man on the team, who had always been at odds with Cooper, exclaimed in surprise, “Are you crazy? Are you preparing to go to those terrifying ruins? Shouldn’t we first find a way to leave?”
“I think that the way to leave is in those ruins!” Cooper’s eyes were burning with determination as if nothing could stop his thoughts, “Since there are so many ruins on this planet, they may have what we need. As long as we find the right way to enter, we’ll be able to leave this place sooner or later!”
“You’re crazy! I think you’re just doing all this for your father’s illusory ideal! I will definitely not enter those ruins!”
Seeing that the two of them were about to start arguing again, the professor came forward in time, “Alright, quiet down! Whether it was to bypass the ruins or explore them, there is not enough time today! We need to hurry up and find a place to camp!”
The party fell silent once more. At this time, the fat man, who was at the back, suddenly felt a chill in his heart as if he was being stared at by something.
When he turned around, he was so shocked that he stood rooted to the ground.
In the gaps in the forest, a huge black shadow slowly raised its body. Its bright red eyes were fixed on the fat man as if it was looking at a delicious piece of meat.
