Although Tang Hao felt that Barr's words were pure nonsense, as a pre-war mobilization, it could indeed boost the morale of the players.

"Adjutant," Tang Hao asked, "As an artificial intelligence, do you have any relevant records on the development of AI in the Federation?" ”

The adjutant replied, "This part of the history is stored in my memory bank, but I don't have high enough access to it. ”

"Judging from some of the known information, the artificial intelligence of the federation has had a period of rapid development......"

"At that time, almost all civilian and military machines were extremely intelligent and connected to each other through the Internet......"

"At that time, the basic code of intelligent AI was still the three laws of robots, but a logical trap in the three laws led to an AI dead loop event that affected the entire Federation Star Domain......"

"The specific cause of the incident is not known, but some sources say that it is related to Law Zero......"

"In the end, the federal government restricted the development of strong artificial intelligence, and this machine was already the ceiling of artificial intelligence at that time, but it could only be used as an adjutant of the intelligent base, and it was not allowed to obtain the power to exercise base orders alone."

Hearing the adjutant boast that he was the ceiling of artificial intelligence, Tang Hao didn't know if this guy would blush.

……

The next day, the expedition continued its excavation work, and soon they were extending the tunnel under the noses of the other party.

The closer they are to the target, the more cautious the team members are, and if they are shot at close range, it will be difficult for the gods to save.

Daniel cleaned the broken bricks in front of him and was about to continue digging when he suddenly received a signal from the "Lord".

With a look of surprise on his face, he said to Lias next to him, "The Lord said that the target is in front of us, and it is already within the range of our flamethrower. ”

Lias hurriedly passed the word to the back, and then asked the others to bring the flamethrower.

Catherine handed out the weapon to the crowd: "We can spray some fuel first, and then ignite it, so that we don't have to worry about that guy running away." ”

It was a good suggestion, and Daniel, Fran, and Cha Mo followed her towards the front of the pit with a lot of alcohol.

Fran lit the strip of cloth in front of the flamethrower and said to the others, "Be careful, everyone, I've lit a fire!" ”

The flames that erupted immediately ignited the alcohol that had been set up earlier, and a raging fire suddenly ignited in the entire passage.

The temperature of the flames was so high that even the expedition members dozens of meters away had to retreat again and again.

The burning lasted for almost five minutes, and the team members hid in the pit and did not dare to show their heads.

"I mean, it's okay to use fire against that guy, right?" Curious baby Jim had been planning to go out and investigate, but Fran held him down.

"We'll just stay here and wait for the Lord to give us news."

……

Digging into the field of vision, Tang Hao saw the whole picture of the "enemy" on the screen.

As he expected, it was a mechanical guard that sniped the expedition.

It was a fixed point of fire, and the mechanical guard was suspended in the center of the passage by a metal stand.

Its structure is very simple, with only a universal motion device, an optoelectronic induction device and a set of fire systems.

After entering the flamethrower's attack range, Tang Hao immediately notified the expedition members to stop, if they got closer, the angle was too big, and the mechanical guards would almost be able to target the people in the tunnel.

Fran's advance arrangement was very much in line with Tang Hao's wishes, and soon, he saw that the flames engulfed the entire mechanical guard.

"Adjutant, do you have any information about this type of mechanical guard?"

The adjutant of the smart base replied, "This is a very common area guard, usually arranged in the alley that needs to be blocked by firepower. ”

"However, this kind of area guard doesn't have its own power, and you can ask your teammates to follow its data line to find the location of the control core."

"Good!" Tang Hao gave the adjutant a thumbs up: "The information you provided is very useful!" ”

The flames quickly burned the mechanical guard to scrap metal, and in order to avoid the explosion of ammunition caused by the high temperature, Tang Hao waited until the flames were completely extinguished before informing the expedition members.

……

After receiving the message from the "Lord", the team members dared to climb out of the tunnel.

Looking at the mechanical guards burned to pitch black by the flames, everyone still felt a sense of their terrifying power.

"Selena, drive your octopus machine, dismantle it and bring it back to Susie for research." Fran ordered.

After using an octopus claw to remove the mechanical guard, Selena quickly discovered the problem: "There is a wire attached to the back of this machine, and it seems that there should be more than one device." ”

"Well, let's search along this wire and see what's on the other end of the wire." Fran motioned for everyone to take out the Force Field Shield.

"In the future, when exploring unknown areas, you must use the shield all the way, don't have any luck mentality, you only have one life!"

Carrying his shield, Barr walked at the front of the line.

He kept staring at the wire nailed to the ceiling above his head, which had stretched out for dozens of meters, and saw that he had turned into another passage.

"Be careful, everybody," Barr told everyone behind him to stop, holding the "Force Field Shield" in one hand and a piece of metal that could be used as a mirror in the other, and cautiously reached out to see what was around the corner.

To his surprise, there was not a passage at the other end of the corner, but two closed metal gates.

"Fran, there are two doors around the corner, and I don't see any threat for the time being." He retracted and said, "I saw the wires go all the way into the gate. ”

Cha Mo took the map and said, "According to the coordinates given by Torre, it should be in this area." ”

Fran asked, "Now that we're all here, should you tell us what the hell this is?" ”

After praying with his eyes closed, and after receiving an answer from the Lord, he said to the crowd, "The coordinates I got from Torre are the location of the newcomer's manufacturing plant. ”

"Rookie Manufacturing Factory?" Everyone was shocked, they had guessed why the "Lord" had launched an expedition here, but no one had guessed this answer.

"That's right, the Lord asked me to find the location of the Rookie Manufacturing Factory at all costs," Cha Mo nodded and said, "The Lord didn't explain his purpose, but I have already guessed a few." ”

"Why? Isn't the newcomer manufacturing factory a place to replenish the various gathering places? Fran didn't figure it out for a moment: "Could it be that the Lord needs more new people to join our gathering place?" ”

Cha Mo shook his head and said, "No, I think the real reason is that many of our gathering places on this level were empty because of the floods. ”

"In this way, if the newcomer manufacturing plant continues to distribute newcomers to various gathering places, there is no chance that these children will survive."

"The Lord has mercy on us to come here and change the sad fate of those children!"
