Chapter 528: The Privileges of "Ancient Humans" and the Ring Indexer

Although in the field of construction, the forerunners have miraculous achievements. However, in terms of the weapons that the expedition team was more concerned about in the short term, the Forerunners seem to have been led astray by their pioneer pioneers, just like the live ammunition individual weapons that the UNSC is still propelling with chemical energy in the 25th century, and the weapons information left by the Forerunners in this ring belt is also full of slots, which is completely inconsistent with their overall technical level.

Not only weapons, but also in terms of artificial intelligence and nanotechnology, the technology of the forerunners seems to be lagging behind, among which the famous forerunner recombinator can reflect the immaturity of this technology.

Even with the nanotechnology currently mastered by the expedition team, it is possible to upload human consciousness to a supercomputer in the real yàn room, and after a period of time, this digital human consciousness body can be reassembled into the original body without side effects.

And the pioneers of extremely advanced technology could not do this, unable to realize the transfer of consciousness between organic and inorganic bodies. That in itself shows just how crooked their tech tree is. And seeing the weapon technology left here by the forerunner further strengthened Shen Chao's previous speculation,

I am afraid that the entire technology system of the pioneers is inherited from the pioneers, and the technology learned during the inheritance is very incomplete, and there is a suspicion of patchwork. It is very likely that many important industries have not formed industrial linkage and complementarity, otherwise it would not be super developed in terms of people's livelihood, but they lag behind in terms of weapons and artificial intelligence.

In contrast, perhaps due to the need to expand and suppress internal rebellions, the Covenant's weapon technology has developed to a fairly developed level after inheriting the Forerunner's technology tree, not only with a wide variety of weapons and good power, but also with a large number of special weapons for different battle situations.

"What about the system permissions, will we receive a shrinking number?" Alice suddenly stepped out of the crowd behind. Instead of Shen Chao, Hargrave asked Hargrave, this was the first time she had actively participated in the operation to help solve the problem, rather than passively participating. Therefore, Shen Chao did not prevent her from joining the chain of command here, even if Alice's personal opinion was very different from his personal conjecture.

Unlike Shen Chao, Alice did not suddenly look down on the pioneer's achievements in the field of technology because the number of points she has obtained now is not good-looking. She has experienced a series of deceptions and misdirection in her home plane. Although she was physically and mentally exhausted, it improved her insight.

She didn't quite believe that the Forerunners were all there was to it, how could a civilization that had expanded to most of the galactic galaxy have only such rudimentary weapon technology? In contrast, she thinks it's more likely that the number of jù that is obtained here is that there is moisture. Or maybe it's simply that the number of the rings is preventing them from accessing the advanced technical information of the Precursors.

"I've thought about this, I've checked it, and the system permissions we have now are roughly the same as that "light bulb", and in fact maybe higher than him. But the highest privileges are only available when the indexer is inserted! So your point of view is just a conjecture at this point. Hargrave was referring to the light bulb that was floating in the air with the spark of 343 Sin.

The scientific research team led by him connected to the system after dismantling part of the control line, and obtained the permission to read part of the number and control the system like Cortana in the plot. But just like Cortana, they can't get control of all the systems on the ring out of thin air. Therefore, it is impossible to verify anyone's conjecture.

"Looks like we're going to have to find the indexer. Is there a clue here? Realizing that he couldn't get the answer to his question through guò external means, Shen Chao finally decided to send someone to find an indexer that could activate the ring, but they needed to know where the indexer was now.

They had already sent someone to search for the place where the indexer was located in the game's plot, and they didn't know if it was a map scale issue or if there was some defense mechanism here that specifically limited the "ancient humans", anyway, they couldn't find the indexer in the original location.

So, their hopes of finding the indexer now are basically pinned on cracking the ring band number jù library and talking directly from the 343 spark of sin. The former has little chance of succeeding, because they found a large amount of unknown system information that was artificially deleted before they entered the control room.

"Nowhere is the location of the indexer mentioned here. It's probably that big bulb that blocks the relevant information! Hargrave had recounted in a very affirmative tone that his words had made a difference. 343's Spark of Evil, which had just fallen silent, came to its senses as soon as it heard that they were looking for the indexer and flew over to stop them.

"No, no, no, the indexer is not yours, I've hidden it. You primitives are impossible to find. Even if you get it, it's useless to you! Give up these unrealistic thoughts......" 343 Spark of Evil hurriedly used words to persuade them to dispel the idea of looking for an indexer.

The indexer of the ring is basically the most important item in the entire belt, it is like a key that can unlock all the Precursor relics on the belt, and it is also equivalent to the safety bolt of the super weapon of the belt. Anyone with the indexer can control all the intelligent systems on this ring except for the 343 Spark of Sin.

Of course, there is a prerequisite for this qiē, that is, the person who gets the indexer must be a "forerunner", only the first mover can use the indexer to do this, and even if people of other races can get it, they can't use it to obtain system permissions. That's why 343 Sin Spark told them that even if they got it, it was useless.

However, these prerequisites are completely within the expectations of the expedition, Shen Chao did not flinch after listening to the persuasion of 343 Spark of Evil, it is unlikely that the people of the expedition will be able to find and use the hidden indexer, but this does not mean that others can't, thinking of this, he looked at the Master Chief and Noble No. 6 behind him.

Just as Shen Chao was trying to convince the Master Chief that they were going to find the indexer, the Star Alliance, which had lost the commander-in-chief of the fleet, was also in action. The Covenant had apparently had experience exploring other rings, and although they hadn't found the Tsunzhe Room before the expedition, their infantry had already landed in more than half of the important areas of the belt.

A small number of these troops came to collect technical information left behind by the Precursors, and most of the others came to clear the Zerg from the ring. When the Star Alliance found the first ring belt a long time ago, it was beaten by the flooding Zerg because of lack of preparation.

At this time, even if they knew that there were remnants of the UNSC distributed in the ring, and the fate of their fleet commanders was unknown, their main operational focus was still to eliminate the zerg in the ring. At this time, half of the expedition members on the ring were observing the actions of these Covenant forces to clear the Zerg.

After observing for a while, one of the squads sent some bad news. Roughly speaking, a large number of Zerg have poured out of a building searched by the Covenant forces less than 100 kilometers away from them, which has scattered the local Covenant forces and is rapidly spreading on the surface of the ring.

This is pretty bad news, according to the report of the only team on their team that has fought with the Zerg so far, these mutated creatures are not very strong in attack, not particularly difficult to kill, whether it is energy weapons or live ammunition weapons, they can effectively kill these very rudimentary flood demons. But as soon as the number of Zerg reaches a certain limit, the battle immediately becomes difficult, and they almost lose a "guide" in the battle with the Zerg.

That's not all, it may be due to genetic identification, the Zerg most likely identified the members of the expedition as ancient humans like the spark of 343 Sin, so they will not actively attack the members of the expedition.

However, the privilege of being an "ancient human" ends here, and the Zerg will still attack the humans in the aura world that accompany them, and will also fight back against their attacks as "ancient humans".

This is a small piece of good news, indicating that the members of the expedition can freely explore the ring in relative safety without considering the Covenant and without a "guide". However, considering that the humans in the Halo World would be recognized by the Flood Demon as the Precursors, and that all the important parts of the Ring Belt, including the Forerunner Technology Library, which the expedition team had worked so hard to obtain, could only be opened by these "Forerunner Descendants", once the Ring Belt was occupied by the Zerg, the Ring Belt would become chicken ribs for them.

It takes a lot of effort to start an operation to clean up all the Zerg in the entire ring, and it's no less difficult than taking a terrestrial planet by force. And the current expedition is clearly not ready for that.

Right now, Master Chief and Noble6 have just embarked on a journey to find the indexer, and optimistically estimate that if 343 Spark of Guilt wasn't playing on them, the two should be able to get the indexer and return in a few hours.

However, if you look at it pessimistically, due to the negative impact of the expedition's intervention on the spark of 343 Sins, they may never find the indexer! With this in mind, Shen Chao decided to make two preparations, waiting for the arrival of the indexer here at the control platform, and at the same time recalling the scattered team that was too far away to return, ready to retreat and blow up the ring belt at any time.

"Attention units, our time has become short, evacuate all unnecessary personnel, assemble at the No. 4 evacuation point, and be ready to retreat at any time......" Shen Chaotong guò internal channel issued this order, and a group of expedition members immediately evacuated their observation positions after receiving the order, and returned to standby. (To be continued......)
