Chapter 421: Underground Pyramid 3
"Is this Atlas' new robot?"
Sun Cheng looked at the robot in front of him that was suddenly busy with interest, his eyes full of interest.
Robots, which are despised by Atlas and other engineers, were first proposed and designed by him.
Although for a long time, Atlas sappers did not look at it squarely, which led to the first generation of industrial robots exposing various shortcomings and deficiencies during the period.
But it is those inferior products that have almost completed more than ninety percent of the construction work of the No. 2 base.
The Decepticon sappers were originally very unhappy with this, and some of the sappers even felt that their jobs were being taken away by these machines.
But these ridiculous ideas, with the continuous expansion of the base, Sun Cheng's Decepticons were seriously insufficient and naturally dissipated.
Although the sappers also belong to the exploited class in the Decepticon legion, they are still a member of the Decepticons even if they are humble, and they are mechanical beings in the true sense of the word.
These clever and cunning creatures soon realized that with these robots, they were no longer at the bottom of the hierarchy and had become an exploiting class.
As a result, the enthusiasm of the sappers to transform the robot has been greatly improved.
One after another, on the basis of the original first-generation robots, robots that have been strengthened by various specialties continue to emerge.
For example, the two robots in front of Sun Cheng are only about two meters two in size, which looks very similar to the first generation of industrial robots, but one robotic arm is designed as a superalloy drill with the ability to drill through almost all non-Cybertron alloys on the earth in an instant, and the other robotic arm is designed as a small digging shovel made of alloys of the same specification, which is a new type of excavation robot designed by the base.
This little guy doesn't look conspicuous, but it is a professional robot specially manufactured by Atlas for digging underground caves and permanent fortifications after summarizing the various problems that arose in the underground excavation operations of the first generation of industrial robots.
Don't underestimate these excavation robots, falling rocks, stagnant water and mud do not affect their work at all, and the strong energy core in the body allows each excavation robot to have the ability to clean thousands of cubic meters of soil and rock per hour and carry out precise operations.
The transportation robot, the full name of which is the engineering earth and rock transportation robot, is a special robot that is developed at the same time as the excavation robot and specially cooperates with its operation.
Unlike the human-like excavation robots, these engineering earth and rock transportation robots are more like big spiders.
Their upper body is barely humanoid, but from the chest down it resembles a giant oval spider, and with eight mechanical legs that make it easy to move quickly in any terrain, it doesn't look more like a spider monster.
But as hideous and ugly as they may seem, the transport robots are a bunch of very hardworking guys.
Sun Cheng looked over and saw that the excavation robot that had already started working at the ruins quickly crushed the heavy masonry on the ground and began to dig downward.
And near them, spider-like transport robots are also working diligently.
They flexibly surround the excavator's side, stretching out from the oval-shaped lower abdomen like a straw-like mouth, constantly sucking the soil and crushed stones dug out by the excavator into the body, and after it is full, they run towards the area drawn in the outer circle of tens of meters, and then the straw appears again, spitting out the soil and stones that were originally sucked into their bodies again.
In terms of efficiency, they are no more slower than excavation robots, except for the occasional hesitation for a moment when faced with relatively large hard rocks before pushing them away or giving up on absorbing them, the efficiency of cleaning up the excavated soil and rocks from the ruins is surprisingly high.
Sprint didn't know if he was satisfied or dissatisfied, but he replied anyway, "Yes, master." These robots were newly sent from the base, and since they arrived, the branch base in La Paz has been built in no time! ”
After another pause, he continued: "The base sends more than that, there are also a large number of miner-type robots in Mora's company, their mining efficiency is very high, and now they can steadily deliver minerals to the base!" ”
Although he inherited the hierarchical concept of the Decepticons, he still inevitably looked down on the engineers whose combat effectiveness was just scum, but Rush also admitted that the Atlas had built a bunch of very practical machines.
"Yes master, the miners they sent to Lord Atlas are indeed very useful!"
Mora didn't know when he had finished explaining to those human officers, and returned to Sun Cheng and them, and he also answered a sentence when he heard the words.
Sun Cheng nodded and didn't say much, including himself and the nascent Decepticons, all the mechanical beings in his force were only forty or fifty combined.
Among them, those with combat capability are still in the single digits.
Because of the serious shortage of manpower, the base will make every effort to make up for the shortage of manpower.
He hadn't tracked the exact number for a while, but it was conservatively estimated that the total number of combat robots under his command had exceeded five hundred, and the number of other types of industrial robots would only be more, at least one or two thousand.
After all, in Severodvinsk alone, there are already more than 200 robots in operation.
On the side of Longhan Hydropower Station, there are more than 100 industrial robots sent over in the first two batches alone, and there will definitely be only a lot more in the future.
……
The work efficiency of the robot is indeed very high, and it did not make Sun Cheng and them bored for long, and soon good news came.
"Master, there is an excavation robot that has fallen into a hole...... I think we've already dug the passage to the underground ruins......"
Sprint controls all the robots in the operation, so when something happens, he knows it as soon as it happens, and reports it to his owner.
"Oh!"
Sun Cheng suddenly couldn't stand still, and hurriedly walked towards the hole that had been dug through.
There are underground ruins beneath the city of Tiahuanaco, which was the earliest hypothesis proposed by anthropologists.
A few years ago, archaeologists from Europe used geological radar instruments to discover that there was a strange thing underneath the ruins of [Tiahuanaco].
Later, archaeologists from the United States interpreted the information that the ancestors of the Incas had built a huge palace for the gods on the shore of the Lake of Heaven on the inscription of an Inca temple in Ecuador, and the [Tiahuanaco City] on the south bank of [Lake Titicaca] is the palace site speculated by American archaeologists, who had applied for research qualifications from the Bolivian government, and then after staying in [Tiahuanaco City] for three years, they once again denied their speculation and agreed with the views of their European counterparts.
By all indications, there is something underneath Tiahuanaco.
It's just that human archaeologists don't dare to dig it easily, and this place is close to the border between Bolivia and Peru, and it is also a sacred place in the legends of South American Indians.
But Sun Cheng and the others did not have such scruples, in fact, after the Forerunners took control of Bolivia, soon an engineer arrived here from the base with a large amount of professional equipment and did a detailed exploration.
The conclusions they came to greatly excited Sun Cheng, who had always had a lot of expectations for this place!
"There is an underground building 17 meters underground six kilometers southeast of [Tiahuanaco City], which, according to surveying and mapping, looks like an upside-down pyramid!"
