Volume 4 The First Entry into Kunlun Chapter 84 The snake licks the octopus
The Blue and White Snake Exploration Robot traveled along the lengthy tunnel, following the tunnel opened by the tunnel robot and deep into the defense layer of the Kunlun Ruins.
Finally, at the end of the pipeline, through the wall of the pipe that has been opened, it enters the equipment room of the pipeline facility.
The AI host analyzes and scans the current equipment through the wired link of the two snakes at this time, and Hella is making a new communication terminal and placing it in the equipment room as a logistics node.
"Sister Luoshen, do you want to continue to erode through the level 2 defense layer?"
The erosion of the Level 2 layer of defense continues, but as the tunnel diameter expands, the resource consumption is also increasing exponentially, and Hela's logistical capacity to excavate large passages that meet the standards of the outer tunnel is far from enough.
"It's enough to expand the diameter of the channel of the level 2 defense layer to be the same as the diameter of the rear pipe, there are obviously more defense layers after the level 3 defense layer, and there is no need for us to penetrate the Kunlun defense layer."
"Hela, you set up a plan for the construction of an underground space to provide technical equipment support for our subsequent exploration."
The passive protection ability of the Kunlun defense layer is much stronger than Luo Shen expected, and after entering the level 2 defense layer, the passage is still hundreds of meters deeper, and it is a bit impractical to break away from the pipeline system and expand the channel, which is completely unnecessary in her opinion.
"The underground mine hub is already under construction, and the planned time is about a standard month."
There are still a lot of huge magma passages in the underground world similar to crystal mines, and there are also rich resource reserves, Hela, an expert in mining, has naturally not let go, several underground mines have been under construction simultaneously, and the nuclear reactor at the ground entrance has been dismantled and transported in the process, and the power supply line can be greatly shortened after the construction of the underground hub is completed.
"I'll arrange for the mining of the underground mine and the construction of the Kunlun exploration base, Sister Luoshen, do you want to directly transfer a dawn host over as the base hub."
"The delay in long-range channel transmission here and at the outpost is an issue."
Due to the surge in the number of missions in the underground world, the secondary matrix host, which relies on the volcano entrance base Hela, has a large computing power gap with the relevant parts, and the transmission channel of Sirius can cope with the huge data stream, and the channel bandwidth is also stretched.
The operation of the remote control underground mine of the AI host is subject to the bottleneck of the central center of the entrance base, and the supporting computing power has reached the bottleneck.
"Then Hela, you have a long-term construction plan for the Kunlun exploration base in the underground world, and the environment there is suitable for a lot of later operations. The construction plan of the surface base can be temporarily cancelled, and the mining operation can be retained, and the existing resources will give priority to the construction of the underground base. ”
"Okay, the plan is in production, and the mine operation plan is being adjusted."
Hela's original mining direction was close to the construction site of the future surface base, but now the construction priorities have been adjusted, so it is necessary to integrate the existing industrial capacity through resource allocation, abandon some unnecessary remote mines, and move mineral operations to the vicinity of the dormant volcanic land, with the construction of the underground base as the core.
Both the entrance base and the underworld were good areas for high-abundance mines, but the scarcity of water was not a high priority for Hella at the time.
In the case of higher construction priorities, it is necessary to consider how to solve the water supply, and the existing water source of the inlet base can only be prepared by chemical reaction, and considering the long-term development, the construction plan of the water supply pipeline in the nearby water area will be generated together.
Due to the distance between the outpost and the underground foundation, it is necessary to build an independent master control center, and then wait for the construction of supporting facilities to be completed, and then transport the dawn host here to serve as a new master control hub.
Faced with a huge long-term planning task, HELLA quickly filled up the idle computing resources of the AI unit and entered a high-load operation state.
At this time, the blue and white twin snakes have completed the scanning and detection between the devices, and are ready to switch to offline exploration mode, Kunlun's thick defense layer isolates all unlimited means of communication, and can only rely on the cable that runs through the channel for communication tasks.
After the White Snake went offline, Roselle simply went into hibernation to give Hela more activity resources.
……
"Sister Luoshen, the wall material and analysis of the equipment room have been completed, it belongs to polymer composite materials, now do you want to cut the door bolt of the passage?"
In the equipment room, the lighting equipment of the blue and white double snake will electrify the dark space, showing that the main body is a white wall, and blocking the passage is a huge unknown function equipment, with complex classification color painting, and more complex pipeline systems fill this not small scale equipment room.
Soon Green Snake found several passage valves in the equipment room, selected a passage to the depths of the base according to the direction, and asked Roselle if it was open.
"Cut, there's not even emergency lighting, is this base really completely dormant?"
In the equipment room, there are many stout support space brace structure columns with ultra-high yield strength, the physical properties of these columns are similar to those of titanium polymeric crystals, and they are also made of artificial isotopes as the substrate.
"If it is a support structure of this strength, then it seems to make sense that the main peak of Qingshan in Kunlun can carry out surface landing operations as a whole."
As for the wall material in the equipment room, the lightweight polymer composite material is also in line with the design concept of the space unit, that is, to meet the needs of use, it is possible to reduce the mass.
Lightweight and easy to process, easy to maintain polymer materials in the Federation's various space units and large starships are also used, after the drilling and analysis just now, the wall between the equipment, that is, the alloy protective layer is better than the material used in the Federation, the level of lightweight composite materials is not large, and the alloy protective layer in the wall is a network light tensile structure, the main function should be impact resistance and electromagnetic shielding.
The green snake used the drill bit loaded at the tail end to drill holes in the fixing bolt position of the passage isolation door, because the protection level of this layer of passage door was obviously not high, and directly drilled the fixing bolt and opened the circular safety door.
Ahead, there is a passage about one meter in diameter, according to the unknown civilization language signs on the channel, compared with all the identification information searched in the equipment room, she speculated that this is an active channel similar to an autonomous robot.
The main passage should be the large security door with a diameter of about five meters, but the protection level is too high, which obviously exceeds the demolition ability of the double snakes, so it is temporarily abandoned.
Inside the active channel, there is an obvious track structure, and the double snake easily adjusts the lower power wheel base and puts it into the track to move forward quickly.
"Sister, look at the modular structure of this channel, it is obvious that it can be split and combined, and this isolation section should be a channel safety mechanism, but fortunately it fails, otherwise we may be directly blocked."
Moving forward quickly, each section of the fixed length has a special material to form a shrinkage isolation section, the isolation length is about one meter, the hardness of this pure black material has far exceeded the hardness of Hella's existing drill bits, which can be called indestructible, and it should be another isotope black technology material of Kunlun base.
The parametric feature display is similar to the composition of the supporting elements of the structure between the equipment, and should be the same series of materials.
"You don't care about these for now, and then slowly do the material analysis, anyway, now you can't make it even if you analyze it, we don't have a tope manufacturing process, and it is said that similar molding materials are manufactured."
"I've calculated the naming rules for these logos, and the front should be the transit hub."
The dark passage is filled with pure, low-pressure helium, which is very suitable for space navigation, because the second abundance in space is helium.
Because the air pressure isolation equipment has been installed in the tunnel project of the second level protection layer in advance, the tunnel channel and the internal valve of the channel also effectively play the role of air pressure isolation in response to the situation of internal and external air pressure difference.
The dismantled isolation valve was only destroyed by the fixing bolt, which can be used normally after Hella's ease of use transformation, and there are several mechanical channels that have their own fixing bolt redundancy and can also be opened manually, which is naturally reused by Hella.
Low-pressure helium protection and transit hubs, both of which indicate that the active channel where the twin snakes are located belongs to the high-speed channel.
The former is easy to understand, and the latter is because similar high-speed channels are generally direct directional passages throughout the process in order to avoid collisions, simply put, they are one-way streets, and they are not directly connected to other branch roads, so the existence of transit hubs is required for channel allocation, so that the traffic units can run at high speed throughout the process.
"Transit hub, these security gates are closed, sister, where are we going?"
Arriving at the transit hub, the green snake came to a huge circular hub after breaking open the security door of the current passage, and along the path of the advance were several identical security gates, spreading along the circular tangent.
Which passage to take is a problem, but fortunately Roselle has calculated the indication rules for the passage signs, found a security gate with a short number, and broke it to enter.
"This should be the maintenance room leading to the self-discipline equipment, and a few of the other passages lead to similar equipment rooms just now, and a few whose significance is unknown, so I'll explore them later."
The main control of high-tech facilities must not rely on manual control, and it must be similar to the AI of the two snakes as the main control of management.
As far as Luo Shen is concerned, the various equipment, passages, and spaces of the facility will inevitably adopt a complete set of naming measures to distinguish and identify, which is a very regular sign work, and these signs seen in the Kunlun ruins obviously have the same regularity.
Therefore, although the specific meaning of the alien words cannot be identified, the meaning of these signs can be easily understood by finding out the laws of the connections, which is a kind of non-communicative interpretation similar to mathematical communication, and there are no restrictions on the universe with the same physical parameters.
Walking towards the passage between the suspected equipment, he soon reached the end, still a familiar demolition operation. As the lights turned on, the self-discipline maintenance equipment maintenance room of the Roselle conjecture was also presented in front of you.
"Wow, yes, that's handsome!"
The titanium electronic eye transplanted by the green snake from the Hella Star shines brightly, and a dazzling laser beam shines into the room for detailed hologram scanning.
"Kunlun's self-discipline maintenance machinery looks like this! It's so handsome! I'm going to make it like this in the future! ”
Hela was visibly excited, and the self-discipline maintenance robots in the room were fixed on the walls, neatly arranged, and the white shell paint was very impactful.
"Multi-flexible arm structure? It's so handsome, because of the limitations of materials science and energy supply shortcomings in the Federation, this flexible flexible arm structure self-propelled robot has not been practical, but it is really handsome! ”
The green snake wrapped its body around a self-discipline maintenance robot and went up, and began to detect the flexible tactile detector on the head, but in Roselle's opinion......
"Hela, you restrain a little, can you not lick it so hard, although I know it's a chemical test, but it's like the saliva you licked is dripping down!"
"Also, you have a snake entangled in a robot that looks like an octopus, I look very disobedient!"
"In human terms, my SAN value is going to be gone!"
Obviously, Hela, who doesn't know how to learn anything, doesn't understand what SAN value is, and doesn't know what an octopus is, but just tightly wraps around the autonomic robot that looks like an octopus, shrinks the fuselage, and starts a structural strength test.
"Sister, it's so hard! My peg didn't work on it at all. ”
"The material at the end of the robotic arm seems to be a bit special, I'm licking it......"
The white snake watched the green snake rub back and forth on the body of the octopus self-discipline machine, and stretched out his head to the end of the tentacle to lick it, and couldn't help but be speechless, so he simply covered his head with his tail, out of sight.
She has been immersed in the consul system of the Federation human society for many years, and there is still something she doesn't know about human culture, and in some areas, she is not only an old pilot, but also a battleship captain.
So the snake and octopus in front of her are entangled, which can stimulate her a lot.
"What do you like, forget it, I'll dig deeper."
