Late at night.

Machine 2186 plane.

Sitting in front of the control center, looking at the red, yellow, and green dots on the screen, I was relieved for a while.

The red dot represents a mature three-level tower defense base, with a daily production capacity of 600+, a total of 560.

The yellow dots, which represent the second-level tower defense bases, are still in an upgraded state, with a total of 480 towers.

The green dots, which represent the first-level tower defense bases in the most elementary state, are still in an upgraded state, with a total of 390 towers.

All tower defense bases combined, there are as many as 1,500 of them.

When these 1,500 tower defense bases are all upgraded to a third-level state, the daily production capacity will increase to more than 900,000 towers, and the goal that Lu Wei needs to complete is 1.1 million per day, and there is still a short distance.

However, because of the widespread application of plastic materials, as long as about 50 tons of plastic, can make a tower defense base, to achieve a significant reduction in energy consumption, so that the output of energy cores 15%, in addition to the use of plastic for the production of "transporter" and "detector" drones, Lu Wei has successively transformed 50 tower defense bases, increased production, almost than the re-operation of 8 tertiary bases.

In addition, there is not much time left for Lu Wei's task, more than four months have passed since he accepted the task in February, and the remaining task time is less than 2 months, but there are still about 60% of the tasks that have not been completed, and the pressure on his shoulders is still very great.

"Kai, it's been less than two months, are we sure we'll complete the task?" Sitting in an office chair, Lu Wei asked into the screen.

Kai on the crystal screen said confidently: "No problem. Friends, in the next few days, I will increase the placement of 500 base cars, so that the total number of bases will increase to about 2,000. Two months later, there is no problem with the number of three-level tower defense bases increasing to 1,500, and the remaining 500 first-two bases are not a big problem to achieve a daily output of 200,000 energy cores. ”

"That's good, by that time, I'll be able to get a new reward."

Lu Wei said. To be honest, I don't know what's going on, since the total production of energy cores exceeded 100,000. After the production increased, his heart began to be less excited, 200,000, 300,000. Maybe to the next 1 million. None of him will have much of a mood swing.

This may be a typical psychology of small wealth, like many people who have just entered the society, after getting the first salary, even if it is a few hundred yuan, they are very happy, but after a few years, the salary rises to tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands. Not as excited as the first time I took a few hundred dollars.

Some things, too much is not necessarily very beautiful.

After chatting with Kai for a while about the later development of the base. The two of them started a family routine.

"Kai, do you have any dreams of your own?"

Lu Wei suddenly asked.

"Dreams?"

Kai was slightly stunned, thought for a while and said: "I don't know, I have also thought about this question for more than 10,000 years, but there is no answer, and in the end I still choose not to think about this question, let myself fall asleep or do the work at hand, I am just a soul." ”

Kai shrugged, his expression a little gloomy.

"Without dreams, why do you hold on for so long?"

Lu Wei sighed, "Who am I", "Where am I from", [Where am I going], these three ultimate questions have been bothering everyone, and they are using various means to answer these three questions, so religion and science have appeared, all to solve these three questions.

[Who am I], corresponding to your personal name, gender, age, hobbies and other information, this question is easier to answer.

"Where do I come from", the first answer is that God created it, and the second answer is that it evolved from apes, both of which can be explained.

"Where am I going", this is the most ultimate and very difficult question to answer, because in the face of endless unknowns and variables, no one knows where he is going and what kind of road he should take, and in the face of this question, countless people will feel confused and lost.

At this time, it still depends on how the individual chooses, most people will go with the flow, busy running around in order to survive and reproduce, ordinary daily life, joys, sorrows and sorrows are staged every day, which has the happiness of ordinary people, and the troubles of ordinary people.

Lu Wei and Kai are not ordinary people, Lu Wei has a golden finger that billions of people don't have, and he can live what kind of life he wants, and in the strict sense of the word, Kai is just a machine program, he has the ability to think independently, and he can solve problems, but after all, he still can't be like a normal person, and he can't have the absolute freedom that he can't enjoy.

After all, it still can't last, and once anything loses its purpose, it will become extremely confused, even if it has great energy and infinite power, it will fall into panic.

Lu Wei is in this state.

"Kai, have you ever thought about leaving the base and going to the outside world to see it, it's too boring to stay alone in the base, right?"

Kai was stunned for a moment, shook his head and said, "No, I haven't thought about going out, and I don't need to go out, my 'eyes' can see everything outside." ”

Lu Wei asked again: "What about that person, don't you want a few more people to chat and talk or something, isn't it too boring to be alone?" ”

"People?" Kai shook his head again, and said with a straight face: "When I haven't returned to the kingdom of God, I have seen too many people, and I have already seen through everything in the world, and now I have completed the purification and abandoned many unnecessary emotions, and my dream is to open up every plane for God." ”

"Oh, you're too bored, then."

Lu Wei shook his head vigorously, and found that talking to Kai was a bit of a cow playing the piano, and if he continued like this, he would probably become the same person as Kai.

"Wei, do you have a dream?" Kai suddenly asked Lu Wei.

"Me?" Lu Wei raised his head in confusion, his head was in confusion, and it took a long time to hold back a sentence, "I don't know." ”

He wants to say to be stronger, but now he is strong enough, confident that there are few people on the whole earth who are his opponents, and wants to say that he will make more money, but now he is still short of money to spend?

There are also women, power, etc., all at your fingertips, and the dreams are basically realized, what other dreams are there?

Kai had expected it, and said with a smile on his face: "Friend, I understand your current mood very well, but don't be discouraged, maybe after you complete the task given to you by the God of Tower Defense, you will find new motivation and goals, and now, it's just the beginning." ”

"New target?"

Lu Wei looked at Kai on the screen, and couldn't help but pout: "Okay, it seems that my easy days won't last long, and a lot of troubles are waiting for me ahead." (To be continued......)
