Chapter 288: A Strange Fleet
The oriental woman standing in front of Zhou Chen was none other than Xiya, the central mastermind who was the center of the management of the earth's civilization, and now had a pretty body. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info This body uses the most advanced mechanical bones and artificial skin at present, and the appearance is no different from that of ordinary humans, but of course, the interior is still an electronic machine.
As Zhou Chen's right-hand man, it is very necessary to have a body that can move freely, although her body is still in the main engine cabin with the flagship as the core, and there is only a movable doppelganger in front of her, but this is also what Xiya, who has "wisdom", is very eager for.
To say that among the current earth civilizations, Zhou Chen is the most trusted, and at the same time, the "life" that is most unlikely to betray Zhou Chen, Xiya is definitely the number one. Zhou Chen participated in the compilation of her permission module, so for this assistant, Zhou Chen is a hundred assured, a few years ago, the Academy of Sciences developed an artificial skin, and finally applied it to the robot.
In the system of earth civilization, robots have become indispensable social participants, according to statistics, all types of robots together have exceeded 10 billion units, the vast majority of them are just ordinary robots with simple logical functions, nourishing the efficient operation of human society, and a small number of them already have low-level intelligence, able to make simple judgments like children, this category can be called intelligent life.
And like Xiya, there are only a very small number of intelligent beings with mature wisdom, and only such intelligent beings have the qualification to have a "body".
In the world of robots, the management system follows a tree-like distribution system, and layers of authority restricts and manages the next level of robots, among which Xiya is undoubtedly the existence standing at the top of all intelligent life. Zhou Chen has absolute control over Xiya, so he doesn't have to worry about the rebellion of intelligent life.
On the other hand, as the earth's civilization gradually integrates into the universe, robots with human appearance are indispensable, and when encountering other civilizations in the future and communicating with them, sometimes it is necessary to send high-level contacts with each other, and sometimes even the leaders of civilizations have to contact each other, at this time, of course, it is impossible to really let the leaders of civilizations pass, not to mention whether it is dangerous or not, the living conditions of different civilizations alone make it extremely difficult for human bodies to move under the suitable conditions of each other.
You can't always wear a thick life-support device, so realistic robots have become the medium of first contact between civilizations and civilizations, of course, although they are all robots, there is still a big difference between robots with a simple mechanical appearance and robots with the external characteristics of the race, which is a manifestation of sincerity.
Nowadays, the leaders of civilization, including Zhou Chen, have been equipped with corresponding "robot stand-ins", in order to distinguish them from real people, the robot doubles have a clear number in front of their foreheads, and their pupils are golden when activated.
As the central mastermind, Xiya is a very special existence, and naturally has a realistic body. Her pupils are golden, and she has a red lotus mark on her delicate forehead, with an Arabic numeral "0" in the center. Far from making her look unusual, this mark resembles the decoration of an ancient Chinese woman.
"Captain, the spacecraft we sent to the target area is closely monitoring the target's every move, and no anomalies have been found yet." Xiya didn't have much expression on her face, and her beautiful face was meticulous.
"Did they spot us?" Zhou Chen asked.
"Nope!" Xiya shook her head, "After the other party's fleet came to Tiancang Five, it stayed outside the orbit of Planet F and started construction, and we haven't discovered the situation on our side yet." ”
"Didn't find us?" Zhou Chen was a little surprised when he heard this answer, "A fleet that came not far away has the ability to cross star systems, but it seems a bit unreasonable to find the existence of another civilization creation in the same star system!" ”
"Yes, logically, the other party should be able to easily find us, but in the past few years, they have quietly stayed outside the orbit of Planet F to do rest, and it seems that they really haven't discovered us."
"It's unreasonable!" Zhou Chen walked to a window and quietly looked at the scene outside.
A few years ago, the Earth Civilization received a report from the Transit Base of the Tiancang 5 Front, and found that a dilapidated fleet had arrived at the Tiancang 5, and then that fleet took root on the side of the Tiancang 5 and began to collect various resources to repair itself.
In this process, the Earth civilization has been sending spaceships to monitor, but for some reason, the other party seems to be unaware of this, and is still carrying out its own maintenance work step by step.
It's such a strange thing!
Is there such an unguarded civilization in the universe?
Judging from Zhou Chen's judgment, this is absolutely impossible.
It's a mature civilization with a span between star systems, even if the level of technology is again, it's a second-level civilization, and it can't find another civilization in the same star system?
Zhou Chen thought for a moment and said to Xiya: "Since we have come to the Tiancang Five Star System, it is imperative to meet with the transit base first and complete the integration as soon as possible, and then we will test this fleet!" ”
Judging from the available information, this strange fleet is by no means a simple second-level civilization, although it has not yet been tested, but from its external embodiment, whether it is the size of the ship or the maturity of science and technology, it all shows that this should be a third-level civilization fleet, but the total number of ships added together is only more than a thousand ships, if it is a third-level civilization, but it is also a little too cold.
"No other fleets have been found nearby, have they?" Zhou Chen asked.
Thea replied, "The radar listening department closely monitors the surrounding area for ten light years, and at least five light years have found no trace of other civilizations. ”
Zhou Chen nodded. Although the detection range limit of quantum radar has reached ten light years, the truly credible part is only in the five light year photosphere, since no traces of other civilizations have been found in the light sphere now, it means that this strange fleet is either alone, and its civilization is five light years away, or the civilization to which it belongs is a civilization that has reached at least the late stage of the third level of civilization, and has the concealment effect of quantum radar.
Zhou Chen was more inclined to the former, because if it was really a civilization that had reached the late stage of the third-level civilization, if he wanted to ambush other civilizations, he wouldn't be able to expose a broken fleet to come out, wouldn't it make the other party vigilant?
From the point of view of being a good robber, this method of adding to the snake is undoubtedly a logical failure.
Of course, be careful to sail the 10,000-year-old ship, Zhou Chen waved his hand, and let Xiya retire first.
