'Bang'.

The body of the giant beast Harto suddenly exploded, the entire space was stunned, and a huge shock wave spread around, and under the impact of this shock wave, countless asteroids changed their orbits, collided everywhere, and became a mess.

Under the control of Zhou Xiaozhi, the Rock flexibly dodged the approaching asteroids, like a fish, shuttling in the asteroid belt.

"It's dead, it's definitely dead!" Professor Smith said excitedly, looking at the command screen.

"Its cell structure is very special, so I need to reconfirm it for the sake of caution. Professor Zhao Huaien said with a solemn face.

After a pause, Professor Zhao Huaien continued: "Biomechanical life is different from biological structure, its cell structure is relatively simple, and it can be combined with metal elements to form a special structure, even if it is blown to pieces, it may be possible to recombine the cell tissue in some way. ”

"Wouldn't it! It's all blown to ashes, and it can still put itself together?" Major General Zhang Heng looked at Professor Zhao Huaien in disbelief.

Professor Zhao Huaien smiled bitterly and introduced: "Have you ever seen an ordinary creature grow into such a large individual? If it weren't for the limitation of the biological resources of the Water Blue Star, it could grow into a larger volume, so we can't look at it with common sense." ”

Seeing the horror of the giant beast-Harto, Major General Zhang Heng was speechless.

"Professor, what are we going to do now?" Zhou Yu asked Professor Zhao Huaien.

"Dragnet searches for its body, for 'living' organizations. Professor Zhao Huaien looked at Zhou Yudao.

"Commander, the corpse of the Behemoth is very important for the study of biomechanical organisms, and if we can obtain its organizational structure, we can work backwards to obtain this technology. Professor Zhao Huaien looked at Zhou Yu and added.

Zhou Yu nodded and agreed to Zhao Huaien's request, the project of searching for the remnants of the corpse of the giant beast - Harto in the vast universe is very troublesome, but it is worth the effort.

"Ash, the Rock returns to the Blue Star, launches a probe vehicle, and collects the corpse of the other party. Zhou Yu gave an order to Zhou Xiaozhi.

"Yes, Commander!" Zhou Xiaozhi responded.

Immediately, the Rock turned its bow and headed for Aqua Blue, and a large number of reconnaissance vehicles flew out of the Rock and flew towards the source of the explosion, searching for the remnants of the behemoth.

Solving the threat of the giant beast - Harto, next, the Rock has a very heavy task, the water blue star has to be remodeled, rebuild the second home of mankind, but also to find the corpse of the giant beast, reverse the biomechanical technology, a bunch of big projects waiting for them.

In a distant and unknown universe, the Wuheng is trying to return to Earth and search for the Rock.

After arriving on the sixteenth planet of the RT278 galaxy, Wuheng quickly started the huge 'Explorer' project to build a spacecraft industry chain that can produce 10 billion explorers.

This is a veritable era of great construction.

In order to provide the speed of smelting metals, the efficiency of construction works, a large number of new robots were adopted, according to different divisions of labor, mining, transportation, welding, processing, transportation,...... Nearly 100 different robot manufacturing plants were put into production, and machinery manufacturing factories continued to rise one after another in the huge planet.

Mining farms, mining trucks, ore trucks, large ore crushers, crazy mining of all kinds of metal ore sources,......。

Thousands of tons of metal magma flow out of the smelter and steelmaking blast furnace, and after passing through the cooling zone, it becomes a piece of rough steel billet, and then it is sent to the supporting forging plant, foundry, etc., to manufacture countless robot parts, which are transported through integration and mechanical organization assembly line,...... , organized into a variety of robot people with different functions.

As soon as these robots got off the assembly line, they joined the production forces of various manufacturing workshops without stagnation, during which various precision machining plants were constantly established.

Over time, mechanical production bases expanded on the planet at a rate visible to the naked eye.

After these two years, the appearance of the mechanical manufacturing area on the sixteen planets has changed greatly.

Nearly a million square kilometers of area, industrial area, blast furnaces, there are countless robots of various types, transport ships shuttling in it, busy.

And in this huge industrial park, Zhou Xiaozhi's computing power of tens of trillions of times per second is its brain, tens of billions of sensors installed on various equipment, and every data transmitted back will be perfectly received by Zhou Xiaozhi, without the slightest omission, and at the moment it is received, it will immediately give instructions for the next step.

"The B172 project was completed, the production line passed the self-inspection, and it was put into production immediately, and the parameters of the product design drawing were delivered,......。 ”

"Project Y271 was established, and the Y123 component of the Spaceyard was manufactured,......。 ”

"In Zone Y, sensor No. 13782 could not receive the data, and the estimated temperature was too high and damaged...... , Maintenance Robot No. 2932, immediately bring spare parts to replace. ”

“……。 ”

The dense flow of information was displayed on the command screen of the Wuheng, and the explorer project was divided into ten stages, and the large projects of hundreds of billions of small projects, under the control of Zhou Xiaozhi, were carried out in a precise and orderly manner, turning the factories and machines on the design drawings into real objects.

The Rock - The huge command room was silent, and most of the staff, except for the staff on duty, went into a dormant state.

Wuheng floats quietly in space, like a king, supervising trillions of mechanical creatures through countless communication satellites.

Under Zhou Xiaozhi's control, the building scope of the ground machinery center continued to increase, the manufacturing plant for the production of small transport spaceships expanded, and the number of machinery manufacturing plants increased, and with the increase in the types of construction factories and the gradual increase in the demand for production, the collection points of the production base expanded wildly.

After the accumulation of primary development, the development of mechanical civilization has exploded into an incremental terror efficiency.

In the third year, the area of the ground mechanical base increased by 20 times, the production of mechanical units was transformed from the ground to the sky, a large number of flying boats were transported, and the construction of aircraft manufacturing began.

In the fourth year, the gathering area of the ground mechanical base encompassed almost the entire planet, and twelve ground sub-bases were established on the entire planet, and the construction of a sky city was added.

In the fifth year, Zhou Xiaozhi controlled one trillion mechanical objects, the machinery manufacturing factory spread to the entire planet, the construction of a large space dock group in space began, and four satellites began to be established in sub-bases.

……。

Wuheng - Command room, the command platform 'clicked', a crack in the metal cracked, and the heavy dormant pod slowly rose.

With a "poof", the hibernation pod closes and the hatch covers shrink open.

"Hmm!" Zhou Xing opened his eyes and woke up from his sleep.

Two robots helped him out of the sleeping cabin, served him to put on clothes, and delivered hot water and liquid food to help Zhou Xing recover his strength.

"Boss, it's 73 years in the federal calendar, the Discovery project is 61% complete, and the mass production of the 'Discovery' is now underway, and the first Discovery will be completed in 6 hours. Zhou Xiaozhi looked at Zhou Xing and reported the progress of the project.

"It's been 73 years! Time flies so fast!" Zhou Xing was stunned for a moment and said with emotion.

Before you know it, it has been almost 40 years since Wuheng left the home planet of the earth, what is the situation on the other side of the earth? Is the colonization of the Blue Pole Star going well? To what extent has human civilization developed now? Has the Dalk Zerg expanded in the Milky Way?...... , all kinds of questions, all kinds of problems popped up from Zhou Xing's mind at once.

Zhou Xing put on his clothes and his eyes fell on the command screen.

The huge command screen shows the magnificent sci-fi mechanical complex, and the dense transport ships come and go between the sixteenth planet and the four moons, they are like a swarm of industrious bees, carrying all kinds of supplies between the 'nest' and the 'place of origin'.

The 'Lair' is a mechanical structure composed of a group of inverted cone-shaped buildings, like a top hat, there are as many as a hundred, they are constantly rotating on their own, maintaining balance and stability, they are almost a clone of a mold, and the volume is more than five times larger than that of the Wuheng.

The interiors of each 'lair' seem to be pregnant with life, and through the three-dimensional model map, it can be seen that silver ships are constantly forming in their bodies.

In one of the buildings, the construction progress of the 'Explorer' has reached 99%, and in a few hours a new 'Explorer' will be released.

"Ash, well done, wake them up and witness this historic moment together. Zhou Xing happily instructed Zhou Xiaozhi.

"Okay, boss!" Zhou Xiaozhi answered, and in an instant, in the dormant area of the Wuheng, the dormant cabins closed one by one and the hatches opened.

Half an hour passed.

Tang Xin, Chen Xiaolin, Professor Lin Hai, and others entered the command room one after another.

"Everyone is almost here, the 'Explorer' project is progressing smoothly, and in a few hours, the first explorer will come out!" Zhou Xing looked at everyone and introduced excitedly.

The crowd rejoiced.

"I've slept long enough this night! I've woken up like this!" Professor Lin Hai sighed in disbelief as he looked at the spaceyard group outside the command window.

"When I woke up, I suddenly felt a sense of vicissitudes!" Chen Xiaolin nodded.

"Great!Xing, the 'Explorer' will definitely be able to find a wormhole to return to Earth, right!And the Rock!" Tang Xin looked at Zhou Xing excitedly, and confirmed in a trembling voice.

"It must be possible!" Zhou Xing looked at Tang Xin, nodded affirmatively, and introduced: "The 'Explorer' is a ship designed specifically for exploring cosmic wormholes, each of them has a 'Xiaozhi' level intelligent core, and they will continue to shuttle through cosmic wormholes according to their core tasks, compare star maps, search for the universe where the Milky Way is located, and the location of the Rock. ”

Tang Xin nodded excitedly, and nervously asked Zhou Xingdao: "If they find clues, how long will it take to pass them back?"

"Don't worry, as soon as we get a clue, we can get the news almost immediately, every explorer has a tunnel communication device, they can form a tunnel communication network, and once we find something, the feedback will be quickly passed through this network. Zhou Xing smiled slightly and said comfortingly.

"Hmm!" Tang Xin nodded excitedly, excited.

"Mr. Zhou, the 'Explorer Project' is very grand and targeted, but the movement caused by this project is very large, and I am afraid that it will attract the attention of many advanced civilizations!" Professor Lin Hai looked at Zhou Xing and said worriedly.

Hearing this, Zhou Xing was silent for a while.

Yes, as Professor Lin Hai said, once the explorer project is launched, the biggest worry is to attract the attention of advanced civilizations from various universes.

To put it bluntly, the 'Explorer Project' is the automatic collection scheme of the 'Cosmic Tree' map, each 'Explorer' is a map recorder, which will break into unfamiliar universes and unfamiliar galaxies to collect star map information, and then summarize and transmit the message back to the headquarters, and finally complete the collection of 'Cosmic Tree' map information.

In the process of breaking into the unfamiliar universe and exploring the star map, the 'explorers' will definitely be able to discover a large number of alien civilizations that have not yet been discovered.

At that time, they will provoke countless alien civilizations, and there will be huge risks and hidden dangers.

This is an unsolvable problem.

Zhou Xing sighed and said: "You can't have both bear paws and fish, and if you want to return to your home planet, you have to take this risk." ”

After a pause, Zhou Xing continued: "However, the explorer has customized the 'fuse' strategy, once it finds that it has been discovered by other intelligent civilizations, it will immediately start the self-destruction procedure to avoid being captured by the other party; ”

"It turns out that Mr. Zhou, you have already thought about this! and you have also taken precautions in advance, I am too worried. Professor Lin Hai nodded, looked at Zhou Xing and said with a wry smile.

"No, these two options are not enough to keep us safe, and we have to think of other ways. Zhou Xing shook his head and said vigilantly.

Hearing this, everyone was silent for a while.

The 'Explorer Project' is a plan that has to go around in order to find a home, but the real development time of human civilization is very short, compared with the development process of other intelligent civilizations for hundreds of millions of years, it is not a dime, and what kind of science and technology advanced alien civilizations have mastered is unimaginable.

Therefore, Zhou Xing said that it was not safe, and everyone understood it very well.

"Mr. Zhou, since the 'Explorer Project' is so dangerous, do you have a third plan?Find a safe place to hide, or find a reliable place to rely on?" Star Wars Commander Chen Xiaolin looked at Zhou Xing with bright eyes and asked with a smile.

Hearing this, Zhou Xing smiled slightly, looked at Chen Xiaolin, and nodded: "Yes, I really can't hide it from General Chen." ”

"Is it the Titan number? The Titan is about to be repaired, right?" Professor Lin Hai was stunned for a moment, and then reacted.

"Almost! When the first Explorer test results are in, it's time for us to head to Titan. Zhou Xing nodded and smiled, and commanded.

"Understood!"

Hearing this, everyone was shocked and excited.
