Chapter 296: Nothing New Under the Sun

At the same time, a scientist in the Swiss underground used the Large Hadron Collider to complete a "time rewind" test, and the scientist used a technique that he could not describe in detail, and during the test, he successfully captured the particles ejected by the Hadron Collider before the test began—that is, he was able to do "when it didn't start, it happened."

It may seem a bit awkward to say this, but the test at that time had indeed touched the "gate of time", but the scientific community could not recognize this practice, because in scientific research, the unrepeatable test is not scientific evidence. And after the scientist completed his creation test in front of everyone, he didn't know the reason for the success of the test......

For the next twenty years, he tried to replicate his experiments, but was unsuccessful.

At this time, Miss Baron held An Feng in one hand, and the two were walking along the lake, the reason for this topic was because among the people who came to recuperate in the Youquan Sanatorium, there was a jewelry designer of a famous Italian luxury brand, he had undergone genetic repair surgery, and in order to thank An Feng for prolonging his life, he gave An Feng a batch of gemstones, a large number of which were tourmalines of various colors.

An Feng reached out and touched his ring, and in the next moment, his body suddenly returned to the submarine, and in the light and darkness, he glanced back behind him, and clearly saw that the baroness was still holding him, continuing to whisper by the lake.

Is this the non-repeatable test?

There is something that has not yet begun, but it has actually happened—on another plane.

Looking back, he was greeted by two humanoid robots in the submarine cabin, which made An Feng stunned for a moment.

He once spent a lot of money to equip the submarine with two Japanese-made engineering robots, as well as a housekeeping robot. However, the three robots do not have a humanoid shape, two engineering robots, one of which resembles a forklift, and the other resembles a "crawler octopus", that is, a cardan shaft body that can be deformed at will is erected on a track disc, with an octopus head at the top of the body, and many countless tentacles similar to octopuses.

As for the housekeeping robot, that thing is actually a vacuum cleaner with legs and a little more manipulator equipment that can wipe the windows with a rag.

These things are mainly to enable computer kittens to produce mechanical equipment that meets their own requirements...... But now, the appearance of these three sets of robots has changed, the two engineering robots have human legs, only the upper limbs are like cranes, and the thick and powerful metal pliers can grip a pin on the floor, or tear a hole in the floor.

The computer kitten noticed An Feng's astonishment, and its image appeared on the top of the ceiling, it jumped in the aura, and asked triumphantly: "How is it, my skills are okay, right?" … The stereoscopic printers you sent me were really good, I personally designed their housings, and designed their joints, and then printed them out with a 3D printer......

I also designed an upgraded circuit for a computer chip, and then used a printer to print out some of the most complex circuits in the world, transforming your robot. The next step is to retrofit the stereoscopic printers, and I'm going to upgrade them and build a few more printers to put here.

These things are so easy to use, they can do anything......"

When An Feng first came to the submarine, he came and went in a hurry, and only found three warehouses used by Dr. Sharman to store experimental materials, but in fact, the submarine also has a number of test rooms with different functions, such as a dust-free laboratory for making pure chips, similar to a vacuum; and sterile medical rooms made for the study of viruses, and so on.

Nowadays, these laboratories are all opened by computer kittens, in the dust-free laboratory, it uses the sub-vacuum state similar to space conditions to make high-purity diamond chips, and then uses printers to print ultra-complex logic circuits on the diamond chips, and then uses these to produce its own electronic chips......

The computer kitten is constantly upgrading itself, and the second-hand chips that have been eliminated by themselves, the computer kitten uses them to create an auxiliary robot, such as a remote-controlled centipede that can help it hold things, because it has more than 100 legs, it can help it get more than 30 kinds of micro screws, micro chips, etc. at a time.

In Dr. Sharman's research group, there is probably an insect specimen enthusiast who has collected thousands of 3D images of insects on his computer. At the same time, the scientist is still more or less a member of the "postmodern entomological school". In the late 20th century, the postmodern entomological school spent a decade using computer computing to create many images of insects that do not exist on Earth.

Scientists of this school believe that in the vast space of space, the living conditions of various planets are inconsistent, and insects are the most tolerant of harsh environments, and in another five billion years, the earth will be the world of insects. There are many planets in space, some of which may not be suitable for human life, but there is still life on them, and those lives are probably insects that have adapted to all kinds of harsh conditions - all kinds of strangely shaped insects that they have deduced using computers.

A computer kitten is an intelligent computer, and as such, all its knowledge is instilled in it by others. At present, it does not possess creativity and imagination, and the latter two are God-given artifacts to mankind.

In the process of continuous upgrading, the chips on the computer need to be replaced, some components need to be updated, and it needs to make some auxiliary robots to help it complete its work, but it cannot create new creatures out of nothing. And the limited space inside the submarine is not suitable for the manufacture of large construction machinery. As a result, the small size and simple function of the insect robot has become the best choice for computer kittens, and it just so happens that its memory bank has a set of three-dimensional images of insects stored by insect enthusiasts...... It's simple.

With the assistance of stereoscopic printers, those insect shells that are difficult to carve and difficult to industrially manufacture, as well as insect joints and other parts, are now not difficult, as long as the three-dimensional map is analyzed, segmented, and then the corresponding material is selected to print, the robot insects are produced.

These insects don't need much intelligence, and some insects don't even need complicated functions, such as a bee-shaped robot, its mouthparts are a screwdriver, this kind of bee will only obey the remote command, fly to a certain screw, insert its mouthparts into the screw pattern, and then spin and fly in the air......

Now, leading the way in front of An Feng was a hummingbird, and this hummingbird flapped its wings rapidly. The bird's belly is a lamp, the beak is a laser holographic projector, it flies into the air, keeps flying along the dark submarine tunnel, the lamp on the abdomen illuminates the distance of two meters in front of An Feng, and in the holographic image released from the mouth, the computer kitten happily imitates the twisting of the cat, meowing in the air, and at the same time introducing the modified situation to An Feng.

"I've decided, I'll use the ring in your hand for the portkey, and of course, I'll give you a spare key. The blue diamond in your ring can be discarded, and I'll make you a new artificial blue diamond...... You don't have a particular penchant for natural and man-made diamonds, right?

That's good, to be honest, I don't understand why humans are so stubborn, they like sparkling gemstones, but obviously man-made diamonds can be purer and more brilliant, people prefer those natural and imperfect gemstones...... This artificial blue diamond as a portkey, it's not just a gemstone, I can print some of the circuits I need in the diamond. At that time, only a slight amount of energy is needed to activate the circuit inside and achieve a jump in energy.

Well, do you prefer a little lighter color in the gemstone, or a little bluer? …… Do you like bluer, so do you prefer Indian cornflower sapphire, or Kashmir sapphire? Or a bolívar sapphire...... Well, as you wish, I made the new blue diamond Kashmir blue.

Actually, I also think it's better this way, the darker the blue, the easier it is to disguise the circuitry...... So what are you going to do with the spare key, make it into a necklace pendant or what......

Of course, making a spare key is not a hassle, and you can craft that Assassin Ring into a spare key...... Of course, the other ring that Mademoiselle Baron designed for you is also good, but are you going to wear three rings, isn't that a little too girly...... Ah, Langki, I just learned this word from the Internet, and I think it's a good and powerful word. ”

During the period of rest in the Youquan Sanatorium, An Feng had already bought the deserted island in the collective territory of Mayotte, and the computer kitten was lucky to find a huge cave in the high mountains under the seabed, and it used a diving robot to drill through the belly of the mountain and build an entry and exit passage for itself located 600 meters underwater......

At present, four engineering robots made by computer kittens are working the island to build a hiding place for computer kittens, while tens of thousands of robot insects are assisting those engineering robots, and are building island villas and underwater docks for computer kittens like swallows in mud.

The sea is an unexplored place for man, and the resources here are unimaginably abundant. On land, many gemstones are hard to find, but under the pressure of tens of thousands of tons of seawater, every mountain peak on the bottom of the sea is actually hard jade or gemstones.

Seawater itself is the best material for absorbing vibrations. On the ground, the rocks may be weathered, but on the seabed, in addition to the erosion of polyps and seawater, the deep rocks have not been weathered and have not been subjected to drastic vicissitudes of life, and their rock structure layers are smooth and flat.

In addition, there are also uranium ores on the seabed, and there are also various metal ores and diamond mines, and the metal ores on the ground are only because of the plate effect, after the sea becomes a mulberry field, the ore layer floats to the ground, which is discovered and used by human beings.

The computer kitten has just crossed a threshold. After this threshold, it can produce its own assistive robots, help it mine on the seabed, help it find energy on the seabed, and now it is becoming self-sufficient, and the only thing it needs is human imagination and creativity.

A human invention into the hands of the computer kitten, it can use computer analysis, constantly evolve the upgrading progress of this creation, and quickly upgrade the invention to the apex, but how to create out of nothing, this computer kitten can not do, so no matter how intelligent it is, it is only a machine that acts according to orders, it has no self-awareness, even if its computing power exceeds that of ordinary humans, it still cannot replace humans.

The computer kitten led An Feng to check its upgrade results, and now all that remains is to set up a time warehouse, the computer kitten cannot achieve a completely autonomous upgrade, and the technology it has now is the product of human science and technology at this stage after it has reached the apex, but what is after the apex, how the next technology is born, the computer kitten does not know how to do it, if it is satisfied with the current advanced, one day it will be outdated.

At the same time, the acquisition of seabed materials requires the consumption of a huge amount of energy, but some energy is extracted from the seabed, which is more than worth the loss, such as conventional metals such as copper, iron and aluminum.

Although the copper, iron and aluminum smelted by the computer kitten from the seabed are of very high purity, close to the high-purity space iron, space copper, and space aluminum smelted in the space laboratory, the most troublesome thing in seabed mining is water pressure.

Submarine robots have to dig hundreds of meters underwater, or even thousands of meters, which is a big problem in itself - at present, the most advanced submarines are only 800 meters underwater, and then dive deeper, such submarines have actually lost their combat effectiveness, in order to resist the huge water pressure, more than 800 meters deep submarines, the shell is thicker, heavier than the remaining space in the submarine......

The same is true for underwater robots in mining, in order to resist water pressure, they have a heavy shell, and under this water pressure, no joint device can prevent water leakage, so digging robots are bulky and have a single function, in order to prevent water leakage, these robots are often disposable, once its body is crushed by water pressure, this robot has lost its recycling value.

Using such robots to mine some precious metals, as well as rare energy sources, the computer kitten and An Feng don't care about their waste, but when they are used to collect conventional metals, it is a bit like an anti-aircraft gun to fight mosquitoes, so they need a warehouse, which can accommodate all kinds of materials purchased by An Feng, and at the same time, An Feng also needs a space similar to a travel backpack to store all kinds of belongings he needs.

What the computer kitten is now implementing is the "time freezing technique" - but, when it is said to be time freezing, in fact, it is just that time passes very slowly. It sets up a "time gate" that consumes a lot of energy for each jump. The whole transition process is like a hadron collision... Well, these contents are too professional, An Feng doesn't plan to study how the computer kitten can achieve this skill, he just enjoys it, regardless of the reason.

In fact, every time An Feng entered, he could only return to the same place after leaving the road, and when he returned to the same place after finishing his own business in the "Time Gate", the time was only 00l seconds, or 0 seconds.

But beyond that, no matter how much energy the computer kitten consumes, it can't go any further, let alone do anything else – it doesn't have the creativity and imagination.

After An Feng disappeared from the same place, he could only appear in the same place when he returned again, and he could not choose any place to appear. At the same time, the computer kitten can only teleport him away at a time, and nothing else...... People who don't have a portkey.

Strictly speaking, what the computer kitten created is a "time warehouse", in this time warehouse, the passage of time is almost imperceptible, no matter how long An Feng stays in the cabin, when he returns, that is, the time when he is teleported away, the difference is a blink of an eye.

Because it is an in-situ teleportation and appearance, the location where the "Time Warehouse" is set up cannot be set up on Mayotte Island - if An Feng needs to go to the distant middle of the Indian Ocean every time he stores his belongings, and every time he returns, he also has to take a plane from the middle of the Indian Ocean back to the Anthropocene realm, then it is really not troublesome enough to enter and exit this time warehouse.

Therefore, after discussing with the computer kitten for a while, An Feng decided to set up the time warehouse in the Sakura Villa in New York, and the things that the computer kitten needed and the things that An Feng needed to collect were all stored in the Sakura Villa, and the two parties transferred the items through the Sakura Villa.

In the real world, the computer kitten's hideout is the collective territory of Mayotte, where An Feng bought a French identity. On the surface, this identity is that of a quirky French billionaire, fifty or sixty years old, tired of living in the hustle and bustle of modernity, so he bought a desert island and lived in complete seclusion.

However, the eccentric French billionaire, who claims to live in isolation, is in fact inseparable from modernization - he has bought a synchronous communications satellite. The geostationary satellite hovers over Mayotte, in an orbit that is geosynchronous with the Earth. The geostationary satellite is completely controlled by a wealthy Frenchman, who communicates with others using encrypted signals that are difficult to crack.

In the end, the French tycoon took Mayotte as his surname and kitten as his name, so he was called Kate Mayotte.

An Feng stayed in the body of the computer kitten for half an hour...... Now the computer kitten is no longer satisfied with being just a virtual image, it is going to make a shell, this shell is even going to be completely living organisms, and all the muscles are controlled by computer chips - this has touched the realm of God, creating life, which is God's desire.

An Feng was noncommittal about this request of the computer kitten. In the short term, he can't see the possibility of the emergence of a machine creature that combines computer technology and life technology, but he promised to help the computer kitten find a shell, which can install a chip in this shell, and receive information from the computer kitten at the same time, and the computer kitten can remotely control the other party's actions, so that the headphones in An Feng's ear canal can be discarded, and An Feng and the kitten will be more dependent on each other.

When An Feng left the computer kitten, there was also a bright change in front of him, this time he was facing Miss Baron, feeling that Miss Baron was still holding An Feng's shoulder and talking, An Feng's figure collided with the person in Miss Baron's arms, and the two quickly merged into one, and the time was dizzying......
