Chapter 470: The Reaper's Remains

"Our engineering team has cleared the main passage inside, if we can transport this wreckage back within 3 days, and we can also get the information of the reaper it carries" Shen introduced their excavation results to Sister Xue, of course, what they said was good news, as for the several structural collapses and explosions encountered during the excavation process, he didn't say anything, anyway, due to good prevention, these accidents did not cause casualties. 9◇,@.23x.netbsp; After they left the Divine Citadel, the reason why Shen rushed here at the first stop was because of this Reaper iff, or Battleship Friend or Foe Identification Code. With this, they will be able to allow the ship equipped with this IFF to freely travel through the Omega 4 repeater and find the base of the Collector.

One of the main goals of their journey was to find and occupy the Collector base, which they could use as a base to stay in the Mass Effect plane for a long time and continue the "Bunker Project". Some people may ask, since Shen Du is now out of the ghost sequence of the Divine Castle, shouldn't the bunker plan also disappear with it?

In fact, the actual situation is just the opposite, Shen used the resources of the Citadel Council to carry out the bunker plan with a lot of restrictions, and he must show at least superficial obedience to the council, otherwise he will not be able to continue to carry out the bunker plan, and then loot the high-tech talents of this plane.

But now the situation is different, the reason why he disappeared a few days ago in the high-profile place of the Citadel has two intentions, one is to show that he will not give in to the unreasonable demands of the council, and the other is to serve as a deterrent and a free propaganda of technical strength.

After breaking away from the Ghost Sequence of the Citadel, he no longer needs to care about the thoughts of the Citadel Council and the Star Federation. But when he finished his toss in the Divine Citadel. The council and all other witnesses could no longer ignore his strength.

In the eyes of the council, he naturally became a renegade ghost, in some way very similar to the renegade Salen in the first place. But to others, Shen would turn into a hope, nothing more than a hope to escape the war.

Shen still said in the council hall that he would continue to carry out the bunker plan, which may not have been of much use at the time, and would have made many observers wonder if he had ulterior motives to weaken the authority of the Citadel Council.

But under Shen's own propaganda offensive, this trend will be reversed. The vast majority of people in the galaxy don't want to stay here and risk when war comes, and most still hope to find a safe haven from the war against the Reapers!

And after breaking free from the shackles of the Citadel Council and showing himself to get the "Ancient Race" Leap Technique. His bunker plans will look more attractive and believable than ever. With the right propaganda offensive, it is not difficult to shape one's plan into a war refuge that everyone yearns for.

Once Shen has upgraded his fleet, they can travel across the galaxy in their own name to contain the inhabitants of the Vault. There is an open call for volunteers who are willing to join the bunker program.

As the atmosphere of galactic preparation is getting stronger. More and more people will seek to escape from the starfields that are about to turn into battlefields. They will either move to some "hinterland" under the organization of various governments, or they will have to stay where they are and wait for the outbreak of war.

Shen can give these people a new choice, as for how people will choose. He wasn't worried. When the catastrophe is imminent, people will struggle to grasp the life-saving straw in front of them, no matter what they think about Shen or the bunker plan before, the coming of war will force them to change their minds and choose the path of survival.

After meeting up with Sister Xue, they did not immediately board the reaper's wreckage, because many important parts of the ruins were still not cleared, and it was not until a day later, after all the main passages were opened, that they put on their armor and led their respective teams to climb the huge reaper's wreckage.

Although it is only a wreckage, the interior space here is still very large. Unlike the scattered Overlords who were defeated during the Battle of the Citadel, this Overlord-class Reaper is still relatively intact, and some of the electronic devices that are still working can be seen in some places they pass by.

After passing through a long temporary passage, they reached one of the important cabins, the control room! Or it would be more appropriate to say that although the cerebellum and the wreckage of this Reaper have completely lost their combat function, the reason why its mass effect core can still operate is because of the automatic control system here.

After the Battle of the Divine Fortress, the scientific research institutions of the major races compared the information in their hands on a large scale, systematically restored the unique technology of many reapers, and had a certain understanding of the "physiological structure" of the reapers.

Although everyone is reluctant to admit it, the Reaper is indeed a "near-perfect" intelligent race in terms of external structure, they have both the evolutionary ability of an organism and high electromagnetic resistance, as well as the powerful body and mechanical computing ability of a purely mechanical body.

The "brain" of a typical reaper is divided into two parts, the biological part and the mechanical part, which support and coordinate with each other in various complex calculations, forming judgments that are both "sensual" and precise about the external situation.

The original "brain" part of this reaper remains has been replaced by a large hole through the body, and looking at the traces, it is obvious that the large weapon caused it a long time ago, which shows that the remains of this reaper have been "headshot" by the enemy in the battle a long time ago, and the brain responsible for advanced intelligence functions has been destroyed. Only the "cerebellum", which has no advanced functions, remains.

The Reaper's "cerebellum" is a mechanical computer that runs like a VI program, and is responsible for taking care of the various automatic systems and "instinctual" reactions in the Reaper's body. Yes, the Reaper also has an instinctive reaction similar to that of a living being, and is carefully controlled by this "cerebellum", but its appearance is still very different from that of an organism.

In general, biological instincts include the desire to survive, the desire to realize self-worth, etc., which are evolved in the process of evolution in order to preserve the survival of individuals and races to the greatest extent.

However, the Reaper did not evolve naturally, they were first designed by a highly intelligent race as a kind of "servant" machine, and its creator was also an organic intelligent race, so naturally they did not give their own mechanical creation design and their own biological instincts.

On the contrary, in order to achieve the goal of "ensuring the long-term survival of all organic intelligent beings in the galaxy", this ancient intelligent race with no brains and muscles set up brain-dead instincts such as "preventing other organic intelligent beings from creating new AIs at any cost, so as to ensure that they will not be ruined by their own AI ...... civilization".

The first Reapers, who were created to quickly possess independent intelligence, were unable to escape the instincts imposed on them by their creators, but they were able to create the instincts to understand and execute the action demands of this instinct.

In the reaper's later rebellion and evolution against their own Creator, they misinterpreted the instincts and responsibilities that they had placed on them. In a sense, they are still following the instincts given to them by their own creators, ensuring that other organic intelligent races will not be wiped out by the artificial intelligence they created.

However, they do this by exterminating these sapient races for a short period of time, either before or after the display of advanced artificial intelligence. In this way, these organically intelligent races will not be wiped out by the AI that they "create their own zào".

From the current research, it seems that the instinct of the reaper also includes the desire to survive, but there is no instinct related to the sociality of the organism. In other words, these mechanical organisms, known as "big squids" by the major races of the Citadel, do not possess the "social" and "individual" characteristics of most sapient races.

All of them have an immutable mind as a support point for logical thinking, that is, to continue to harvest organic intelligent civilization. Make sure they don't get ruined by the AI who created the zào themselves!

Although the concept itself is full of slots, no scholar has yet been able to find out the origin of this idea, or how such a highly intelligent race as the Reaper got into today's thinking cycle.

However, if it is a qiē shun lì, Shen and Sister Xue will uncover this secret during this journey, and even the secret of their creator. Of course, there are no answers to these questions in the reaper's wreckage they are currently in.

The reason why they chose to climb here and arrive here specifically was to crack and use the control mechanism here, so that the Reaper wreckage's still working mass effect core could change its working mode, and reduce the weight of the wreck itself, so that Shen could transport the thing back to his control plane.

After making sure that his space-time gate could indeed isolate any edifying influences, Shen had always hoped to get a relatively complete wreak of the Reaper like the rogue states of the Divine Citadel, so as to understand their opponents as much as possible and try to reverse engineer them to copy some useful techniques.

He had already arranged an independent scientific research base on the Plane of Legends for the Reaper remains, and the relevant scientists in charge of the dismantling of the body and technical research were also ready, just waiting for Shen to transport the huge wreckage back.

With the previous experience of successfully bringing a fleet back, Shen could theoretically try to use the method of bringing the Theron battleship at that time to get the Budapest close to the wreckage and use his own mass effect field to reduce weight. But that's not possible here. (To be continued!)
