Chapter 12: A False Alarm
"Contact failed, the robot blocked the ship's request for contact, and she has now opened the door to the dormant pod. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ο½iqugeγ ο½ο½foβ
"How so?" Zhou Xin suddenly became even more anxious, "Didn't you already say that you wouldn't mess around before?" How did you get there now, and even the Voyager can't be contacted. β
"Since the control of the ship before, the artificial intelligence has not opened the authority to communicate with the machine." The Voyager added.
"It's useless to be in a hurry here." "It's imperative to get over there and see what that AI is trying to do," Spred reminded. β
"Well, then I'll go over and have a look." Zhou Xin said, "Voyager, you will need to closely monitor the situation inside the ship, and report any slight abnormalities you find. With that, Zhou Xin hurriedly left the command cabin.
"Remember to bring the robot to help." Spred reminded Zhou Xin the moment he walked out of the hatch.
Zhou Xin almost trotted all the way to the door of the sleeping pod, and on the way, he casually found two robots to follow him. When he reached the door of the sleeping pod, he found that the door was still locked as before, as if no one had ever been there.
Seeing that the door of the hibernation pod was still closed, Zhou Xin was a little puzzled, and after asking the Voyager, it was determined that the robot with abnormal behavior had entered the hibernation pod, so Zhou Xin stepped forward and opened the door of the hibernation pod.
Before entering the hibernation pod, Zhou Xin was still faintly worried in his heart, he was afraid that the hibernation pod had been damaged by the robot controlled by Atlas. You must know that there is an earthling lying in every dormancy device in the hibernation module, as long as any device is damaged, it means that Zhou Xin may have really lost a companion, and there is no chance to remedy it. However, when he opened the door, he found that the dormant devices near the door were still there, just like the last time he visited.
Zhou Xin walked into the sleeping cabin with a puzzled face, and after walking along the sleeping cabin with a puzzled face, he found that there was no abnormality in the entire sleeping cabin, and the sleeping device was not missing, and all his companions were lying in the device.
Seeing that the devices in the sleeping cabin were all safe and sound, Zhou Xin breathed a sigh of relief. Standing in the deepest part of the hibernation pod, he was puzzled, he didn't think that the Voyager had made a mistake, Atlas must have entered the hibernation pod, but where had she run now? After thinking for a while, Zhou Xin decided to take out his communication device and try to contact Atlas, but as expected, it failed.
"Has she already left here?" Zhou Xin muttered to himself, and at the same time continued to operate with his hand holding the communicator, he contacted Dart.
When Dart appeared on the screen, Zhou Xin saw that he seemed to be arranging something in the hall in the living area, and there was a group of Atlanteans behind him who were also busy, and he was a little surprised to see that the person who contacted him was Zhou Xin, "Is there something wrong?" He asked curiously.
Ignoring the greetings, Zhou Xin asked directly: "Can you contact Atlas and know where she is now?" β
"Atlas?" Hearing Zhou Xin's tone a little urgent, Dart asked suspiciously, "What happened?" Don't worry, I'll contact her first. He bowed his head for a moment, then replied, "The communicator shows that she can't be reached, what's going on?" Why are you in such a hurry to find her? β
"Nothing." Seeing that there was nothing unusual about the sleeping cabin, Zhou Xin chose not to talk about this matter for the time being, so as not to worry Dart, he replied as usual, "It's just that there are some things about the star map that I want her to help, since I can't contact them for the time being, let's talk about it later." β
"Well, I'll tell Atlas if I get in touch with her."
After ending the communication with Dart, Zhou Xin looked at the rows of dormant devices in front of him with a puzzled look, and said to himself suspiciously, "It's strange, where did Atlas go?" β
"Hey! Are you looking for me? As soon as Zhou Xin's voice fell, a voice suddenly came out from behind the dormant device, and Zhou Xin, who was in deep thought, was taken aback, and after coming back to his senses, he saw the head of a robot peeking out from behind a dormant device, it was not a robot controlled by Atlas or who.
After seeing this robot, Zhou Xin finally completely relieved, and then he asked in a reproachful tone, "Why did you come to this place, don't you know that this place does not allow others to enter?" And what's the deal with the denial of the Voyager's contact request? β
"People are just curious and want to come in and have a look." The robot lowered its head anthropomorphically, "And this place just doesn't allow 'others' to come in, and people are not 'humans' but robots." She quibbled in a low voice.
"......" Zhou Xin was a little speechless, and after a while, he said angrily and funny, "At this time, I use the logic of the robot with me, I really have you." After saying this, he contacted the Voyager, "Traveler, the 'others' plus the robot that the hibernation pod does not allow 'others' to enter, so as not to be exploited by some guy." β
"Understood." It was the Voyager that answered him in a serious voice.
Zhou Xin looked at the robot, "Now it's up to you how you take advantage of the loopholes." β
"Okay, people don't come into this room in the future." Atlas replied in an aggrieved tone, "People just came in to take a look, and they didn't touch the things in here." β
"Then why are you coming in?" Zhou Xin asked angrily.
"It's just curiousβ" Atlas said in a cute tone, "I saw in the ship's database that no one was allowed to enter this room, but it was just a normal hibernation device in it, and I wanted to come in and see what was in there." By the wayβ" Atlas's tone became mischievous, "By the way, I just want to scare you." β
"You already knew I was coming?" Zhou Xin asked with a frown.
"From the moment you left the command module." Atlas's tone was smug, "Everyone can see all the surveillance footage on the ship, how about it, they are very powerful." β
"Then you deliberately refused to contact everyone?" Zhou Xin's tone was not good.
"Refuse to be contacted? No, I don't. Atlas said with a hint of confusion in his tone, "Isn't that the intention of the people too obvious?" After a pause for a second, her voice became a little embarrassed, "Ah, people forgot, the previous set of denying your contact forgot to change." Okay, now it's changed back. β
Hearing this reason, Zhou Xin couldn't lose his temper with her anymore, so he had to remind Atlas: "Don't do this in the future, you can't find it if you want to contact you." β
"Uh-huh." The robot nodded quickly, and then she asked curiously, "Who are the people lying in these dormant devices, and why don't you wake them up?" β
Hearing Atlas's question, Zhou Xin's mood suddenly became lost, "It's not that I don't want to wake them up, but there is no way to wake them up." He then told her what had happened after the Voyager had passed through the wormhole. After saying that, he suddenly remembered that he never seemed to have asked the Atlanteans this question, so he asked Atlas with a glimmer of hope, "With your level of technology, do you know why this is happening?" Is there a workaround? β
The robot showed a thoughtful expression, and after a few seconds, Atlas replied, "It doesn't seem to be, we have only studied hyperspace in detail from the beginning, and it seems that the wormhole was theoretically mentioned a long time ago, but at that time we already had hyperspace jumps, so we didn't do more in-depth research on wormholes." β
"That's itβ" Zhou Xin showed a disappointed expression, "Then forget it, I'll find someone else to figure out a way." β
"There's no more in-depth study of wormholesβ" Atlas thought for a moment before continuing, "but there's no way out of their situation. β
"What's the solution?" Hearing this, Zhou Xin hurriedly asked.
"Maybe try our repair pod." Atlas replied, "Let's check to see if there's anything wrong with their bodies, but before I can check them, I need a normal life form of an earthling as a standard data." β
"Does it work?" Zhou Xin was a little skeptical, "I also checked them before, but our instrument didn't find any problems." But after thinking about it, he agreed, "Give it a try, maybe your repair pod is more advanced than ours, and you might be able to check for problems." β
"Okay." The robot nodded, "Then let's try it now." β
After speaking, Zhou Xin followed the robot towards the door of the sleeping cabin, and only walked a few steps, Zhou Xin suddenly remembered a very important question, "I just remembered that when the Atlanteans evacuated, they were in a hurry and did not bring any large equipment on board, I think, the repair cabin you said should not be on the ship now." β
"That'sβthat's a pity." Atlas said with a sigh of regret, and after a moment she continued, "It's okay, the repair pod is made in my memory bank, and I can make one for you in a moment." Butβ" The robot moved its arm, "you're going to have to help me get a new robot, it's too inflexible, and it's a little difficult to make things." β
"I'm afraid not." Zhou Xin shook his head, "The manufacturing of the repair cabin shouldn't be too simple, you must know that you don't have any equipment now, do you want to rely on a robot to make the entire repair cabin?" β
"I can use your equipment." Atlas replied
"Does it work?" Zhou Xin was a little skeptical, "Forget it, let's give it a try." β
Leaving the hibernation pod with Atlas, in this short period of time, she had already read various parameters of the ship's production equipment from the database on the Voyager, and walked to the door of the hibernation pod, the robot shook its head, "No, your equipment is too poor, and it is a little difficult to make a repair pod." "If you want to build a repair pod, you have to start with all kinds of basic equipment, which takes a lot of time." β
"Forget it." Zhou Xin sighed, "I've thought of it a long time ago, let's take it step by step, anyway, I've been waiting for so long, and it's not bad to wait for a while." β
"Don't worry." The robot made a fist-clenching gesture, "I'll be sure to help you build the repair pod as soon as possible." After a pause, she added, "Also, the children on board need to repair the pod, otherwise what if they get hurt." β
"Looks like you like those kids." Zhou Xin asked casually, and as he asked, he closed the door of the sleeping pod again.
"Of course." Atlas happily replied, "If I didn't have them, who else would be able to play with me, andβ" The robot turned to look at Zhou Xin, "Don't you think those kids are cute?" As she said this, Atlas's tone became serious, and it felt like a mother talking about her child.
Turning his head to look at Atlas, Zhou Xin reminded: "Okay, it's time for me to get busy, don't run around casually anymore." β
"Okay, okay, don't worry." Atlas reverted to his previous playful tone, but this tone made Zhou Xin feel uneasy. However, he couldn't watch Atlas the whole time, so he had no choice but to go back to the command cabin.
Returning to the command module, Zhou Xin told everyone about everything that happened in the sleeping cabin, and when they heard that the reason why Atlas sneaked into the sleeping cabin was actually to joke with Zhou Xin, everyone in the command cabin showed expressions of crying and laughing.
"Is that the reason?" Spred asked with a wry smile, and Zhou Xin nodded to him in confirmation, "That's the reason." Spred shook his head, "Forget it, it's good for such a reason, at least it didn't cause too much trouble." β
Before his words fell, an emergency communication prompt sounded in the command cabin, Zhou Xin turned on the communicator, and what appeared on the screen was a depressed Reynard.
Before Zhou Xin could speak, Renard spoke: "Captain, there seems to be a damaged robot on the ship, can you send someone over to check it?" β
"Damaged robots?" Hearing this, Zhou Xinzhong suddenly had an ominous premonition.
"Yes, damaged robots." Renard continued, "Just now I wanted to ask a robot passing by to help me deliver something, and the robot actually said to me, 'People won't help you move it, move it yourself.'" Then he made a face at me, and ended up jumping away. Speaking of this, he asked with a wry smile, "You said that this is not a broken system, is it still a special model of robot?" β
"Don't speak ill of people!" At this time, a little girl's voice was inserted into the communication......
