Back in the company, Cheng Yuan did not pay too much attention to the work of employees. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

After all, the whole company is in semi-intelligent management, and once something goes wrong, Zero can directly remind him. Or if he wants to know how the company is doing, he can just ask zero.

Now that Zero hasn't said anything, it means that everything is normal in the company.

"Zero, what's going on on Mars. Coming to the top floor of the cutting-edge laboratory, Cheng Yuan took the boiled water handed by Fang Jing, took a sip, and asked.

"Everything is in order, sir, our retrofit equipment is in the works, but more mechanical nanoworms are needed. "Zero Round.

Cheng Yuan sat on the sofa, holding his cheek raiser in his right hand, and said: "Since there is a shortage, let's increase production, mechanical nanoworms will be the main item we will build in the future, and you can open more factories in the space base specifically for cultivating mechanical nanoworms." ”

"Okay. Zero answered, and then asked, "So, is our mechanical nanoworm factory still located in the [Hongnong] base?"

Cheng Yuan thought for a moment, then shook his head and said, "No, reopen a space base specifically for the manufacturing of mechanical nanoworms! Hongnong was designated as a base for crop cultivation from the beginning, and we can't disrupt the previous deployment." ”

"Understood, then I'll immediately look for a new target. ”

"Well, go ahead. Cheng Yuan nodded.

In this kind of thing, there has been an experience in building Hongnong, and Zero is definitely better at it now, so there is no need for Cheng Yuan to do superfluous command.

However, Zero did not leave because of this, and now he is able to handle multiple supercomputing projects at the same time after adopting a quantum computer.

Therefore, even if he talks to Cheng Yuan here, he can instantly mobilize all the machinery and equipment and factories in the Hongnong base located at the Lagrange point.

Coupled with the previous establishment of quantum network base stations in various countries around the world, this has further enhanced Zero's capabilities.

"One more thing, sir, is that I didn't have a good time reminding you that you were at home before, and we have already started digging up Phobos. ”

When Cheng Yuan heard this, a shock flashed in his eyes, and his mind instantly thought of the mysterious metal device inside Phobos.

With a slight hint of excitement, he asked, "What's the situation now?"

"Our mining team has already started digging through the ice and rock layers on Phobos, and is now 1.3 kilometers away from unknown equipment. ”

"How long will it take to dig up?" Cheng Yuan hurriedly asked.

For him, if he hadn't been in a hurry to transform Mars, he would have wanted to dig up the contents of Phobos early on.

He knew this thing with his toes, it was definitely the technological product of some alien civilization!

"Based on the speed of our excavation team, it will take about ten minutes, do you need me to play the live footage for you?" Zero said.

Cheng Yuan nodded without hesitation: "Of course, people can't get by now, but at least I can witness the technological products of alien civilizations through the screen!"

To see the level of alien technology, he is looking forward to it.

At the same time as Cheng Yuan confirmed, a holographic screen suddenly appeared in front of him. Inside the screen, what appears is not a pitch-black cosmic environment.

It is an incomparably bright working environment, and what surprises Cheng Yuan the most is that his perspective at this time is still a distant high-altitude perspective.

This allows Cheng Yuan to clearly see all the work of the entire robot excavation team and the surrounding environment.

Under the bright lights, Cheng Yuan saw that there was a circle of rocks around him that were not very solid, and on the wet, potholed ground, he could also see some stagnant water gathering in a shallow pit.

"Sir, we use a high heat gun and a drill bit for our excavation, and the high heat gun dissolves the ice quickly, which makes our digging faster. ”

After Cheng Yuan saw it, Zero immediately began to explain for Cheng Yuan.

Cheng Yuan's brows moved, undeniable.

"Is it all rocks inside?"

"No, Phobos is very low-density, and its interior is made up of rocks and ice. After this excavation is completed, we can send it to Mars. "Zero Round.

"Send it to Mars, don't you think it's a bit big?" Cheng Yuan looked at the screen and couldn't help but stretch out his hand and make a posture of pulling away.

Although Phobos is the smallest moon in the solar system, it is still 27 kilometers long, 22 kilometers wide, and 18 kilometers high!

If this were placed on the earth, it would be a mountain with an altitude of 18,000 meters! 10,000 meters higher than the world's highest peak on the earth!

Compared with Cheng Yuan's surprise, Zero was very calm, and he said calmly: "Although it is indeed big now, at least after it decomposes for a while, it will not be so big." ”

"Decomposition!?" Cheng Yuan was stunned for a moment, and then hurriedly asked, "What do you mean?"

Zero didn't immediately answer why, but reopened a holographic screen above Cheng Yuan's line of sight, and a color scan appeared on the screen.

"Sir, look at this picture. ”

Cheng Yuan looked up and looked at what Zero said, and the color scans were distinguished by three colors: brown, white, and red.

Among them, brown occupies the main color and is the most. White is a close second, and red has only one dot.

But it was such a simple color scan that Cheng Yuan couldn't help but let out a soft sigh.

"This ......" Cheng Yuan's expression instantly became serious, and on this scan, Cheng Yuan could clearly see that the entire Phobos was cut into seven pieces from the inside!

The brown rocks were separated by white ice, and what surprised Cheng Yuan the most was that in the center of the seven cuts, it was the unknown metal device they had found!

"Sir, you have seen it, I very much suspect that the formation of Phobos is inextricably linked to this unknown device. And judging from the display of the image, the formation of ice is also very related to it!"

Cheng Yuan frowned, "But, even so, it's not a reason to send Phobos to Mars, don't you think this will destroy Mars that is not easy for us to improve?"

"We can use thrusters to control the speed of the debris after Phobos disintegrates, so that they land perfectly on Mars!" Zero explained.

"Can't you send it out?" Cheng Yuan was still a little hesitant.

"I think the ice in Phobos is good for Mars. I've sampled and analysed Phobos' ice, which is rich in minerals. ”

Cheng Yuan dispelled his hesitation for this reason, his brows furrowed, and a smile appeared on his face, "Since this is the case, then do it according to your method, but do you think that if the formation of these ice layers is related to that equipment, does this mean that the role of this equipment is to make water?"

"It's likely, but I think it's going to take a more detailed analysis of the data to know. "Zero Round.

Cheng Yuan nodded, his heart moved slightly, if this shape device really has such a function, it is definitely good news for Cheng Yuan!

After all, although his mechanical nanoworms also have the function of repairing trees and restoring water quality, they cannot produce rich minerals in ordinary pure water!

Unless the water quality restored by the mechanical nanoworms itself contains mineral elements, then the mechanical nanoworms are naturally able to replicate and decompose.

At the same time as Cheng Yuan's heart was moved, the robot excavation team had already dug to the target location.

Through the picture, Cheng Yuan can see a huge metal wall looming in the layer of ice that is not very thick.

Although it was separated by ice, Cheng Yuan was a little nervous, and his heart was beating even more!

"Zero, let's start!" Cheng Yuan's throat twitched, and he commanded a little nervously.

"Understood, sir. ”

The robot digging pair began to work, and a row of robots held a silver-white metal weapon, the shape of which was generally indistinguishable from a normal submachine gun.

It's just that these guns are thicker and bigger!

Most strikingly, near the back of the gun, near the rear stock, there is a disc-shaped device covered with a transparent glass cover.

A pale blue ball of energy glowed inside the shroud.

The moment the intelligent robot fired, the blue ball of energy began to emit bright light, and the muzzle of the gun immediately shot out a blue cluster of light.

The middle of the light was bright white, and the outside was wrapped in a layer of blue energy that burned like a flame.

This is the high-heat gun, and the seemingly flame-like substance on the outside is the excess energy volatilized by highly concentrated energy!

"Z-!"

When the high-heat gun touched the ice wall, it immediately made a sizzling sound, and then Cheng Yuan saw that the ice was melting at a speed visible to the naked eye!

"I'll go, this thing is quite powerful, can it be equipped on our intelligent robot troops?" Cheng Yuan suddenly exclaimed.

"Of course, but this weapon is still a semi-finished product, because in the process of shooting, the energy is constantly volatilized, which will reduce the power of the weapon by about five to twenty percent. ”

The corners of Cheng Yuan's mouth twitched, he glanced at the ice wall that had melted into water, and laughed dryly, "Even if the power is reduced, it should not be underestimated." ”

When Cheng Yuan and Ling Xian were arguing, the ice wall in front of them had been melted by the high-heat gun, revealing a gap about ten meters high and about twenty meters wide.

It was only at this time that Cheng Yuan could see a part of this unknown device.

The surface of the device is a dark metal with intricate patterns carved into it, and the crevices of these lines are covered with fine frost and falling water stains.

"Zero, where is its entrance?" Cheng Yuan took a general look at the small part of the exposure, and hurriedly asked.

"It's going to require us to melt more ice to look for. "Zero Round.

"Then hurry up, I really want to see what an alien civilization is like. Cheng Yuan's eyes flashed with curiosity. (To be continued.) )
