Seeing that he couldn't get more benefits from Locke, Steck could only stop there, and he began to shift his attention to Lena next to him: "If you guess correctly, this Miss Lena is a robot, right?" ”

Locke smiled, after Steck arranged for Locke and Lena to enter the Mecha Hunter Academy, he had been paying attention to the news of the two people, whether it was Locke or Lena, they didn't behave like normal people in all aspects.

Locke is okay, at least he is restrained enough, although his performance is somewhat inhuman, it is barely acceptable, the key is that his origin is more traceable.

It's like Lena just came out of nowhere, she suddenly appeared not long ago, and then she was inseparable from Locke, the key is Lina's strength, as well as her usual speaking and behavior habits, she really doesn't look like a normal person.

Just after visiting the Guda base and seeing the countless robots, it was difficult for Steck not to have similar associations, so he tentatively asked.

"General, you're very observant, Lena, show him that." Locke said.

Lena looked at Steck and Lukka expressionlessly, the nano memory metal on her body changed like a tide, flowing down from her body, constantly changing next to her, and actually directly turned into the same appearance as Luca.

At the same time, the silvery-white metal skeleton wrapped under the nano-memory metal was also revealed.

This particular change is a reference to part of the design of the latest Terminator Dark Destiny movie that Locke saw before the time travel, and the nano-memory metal can be divided into two parts with the internal body.

Of course, the combined computing power of the small CPU that comes with the nano memory metal is far inferior to the chip on the main body, and at the same time, every time it is transformed, it takes a lot of energy.

The stored energy cannot support long-term action alone, and for a longer period of time, it must rely on the reactor inside the metal skeleton to provide energy.

Seeing this scene in front of him, even if he had already guessed in his heart before, Steck was stunned at this time, and he couldn't help but get up from his seat suddenly.

Naturally, Luca next to him is no better, such a beautiful and almost perfect girl is really a robot!

Before meeting with Locke, when Steck talked about this speculation, Lukka thought that Steck had made an abnormal judgment because he had just visited the Guda base.

"That's it."

With Locke's words, Lena immediately covered her body with liquid metal again.

"Is it possible to make such a realistic robot with the current technology?" Steck asked in a deep voice.

"Lena is special, with existing hardware and energy, it is not universal." Locke gave this answer.

This is a fact, now the so-called intelligent housekeeper robot launched by the Li Group, as well as the more than 200,000 robots working in the Guda base, are limited by the limitations of their own chips, materials and other hardware, with their own intelligent program processing power is not high, only basic logical judgment ability, can complete a few simple jobs.

Only after the network is connected, the supercomputer existing in the Lee Group can be used to help calculate and make judgments, and more refined work can be completed.

And this supercomputer, its core chip, and other additional hardware, are actually made by Locke himself using magic to open and hang, and it is not at all a possible product of the industrial level of this world at this stage.

In the same way, Lena's current body was designed by Locke and Lena together, and the materials used, as well as the reactor used as an energy source, were also made by Locke using magic to open the hanging.

Although the industrial system of this world has advanced by leaps and bounds in the past few years, it is impossible to produce a robot of Lina's level.

For example, nano-memory metal is not something that can be made at the current industrial level, and there are energy reactors, which can be industrialized in the world now, or the hydrogen-fueled cold nuclear fusion reactor technology provided by Locke.

The starry sky reactor used by Lena is a high-end technology, and it was also made one by one by magic after Locke completed the design.

There is also a weapon system, Lina's own ion cannon is not only miniaturized that the world's industry has not been able to do, but it is also more advanced, more efficient in the use of energy, and more powerful.

Somehow, hearing Locke say that Lena's example is not universal, Steck breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and continued:

"Looking at the R&D direction of your Li Group at this stage, you plan to further make the mecha hunter into a giant robot, is this likely to be successful?"

"It's the way to go." Locke said with a solemn expression: "After the establishment of PPDC, countries have put aside their preconceptions in the past few years and shared all their technologies, which has led to the leapfrog development of science and technology in the past five years.

Of course, after the success of the Mecha Hunter project, countries began to cherish their brooms again, but for me, it was enough for me to speed up my research. ”

Steck nodded subconsciously, as the head of PPDC, he has also seen many genius scientists, but in the past five years, the person in front of him has achieved the most.

In the past five years, more than half of the world's new technologies are related to Locke, especially in biotechnology and artificial intelligence robots.

The Lee Group has also changed from a first-class military industrial group more than five years ago to a super group company spanning multiple industries, otherwise there would not be so much money to support PPDC.

Then I listened to Locke: "My research was very successful before, if it weren't for the emergence of artificial intelligence, if you want to control the mecha hunter, you need at least two pilots to synchronize in order to bear a huge mental load, but now only one pilot is enough." ”

"You're saying we'll be short of drivers?" Steck quickly understood what Locke was trying to say.

"That's right, don't look at the fact that there are nearly 100 students in the Hunter Academy now, and every active mecha hunter has a spare co-pilot.

But these drivers have included all the suitable candidates in the world between the ages of 14 and 40, which also means that in the short term, the number of drivers will only decrease, not increase.

And what we're going on now is a war, and as the Heralds' side continues to send more and more powerful Kaiju beasts, there will be more and more sacrifices. ”

This is not that Locke is talking nonsense, according to past experience, every time he loses the battle with the Kaiju Beast, it not only represents the destruction of the mecha hunter, but also the ranger as the pilot will also have a great probability of sacrifice.

Before the final battle of the original plot, PPDC did not talk about finding a suitable mecha hunter, even if it was an excellent driver, it was not easy to find, otherwise Raleigh Beckett, who had been away from PPDC for more than five years, would not have looked for a dangerous wanderer.

"As the head of PPDC, I certainly know that in addition to the problem of money, drivers are also the biggest hidden danger that may exist in the future."

Steck said in a deep voice, "That pioneer is using an endless number of biological weapons to consume with our limited mech pilots.

It doesn't matter how many of the Kaiju beasts die, but the drivers on our side, one less dead, but we have already conducted selections all over the world, and even some students are just taller among the shorts.

In a short period of time, there will be no significant increase in the number of Hunter Academy students, but looking at this battle, just like you predicted before, the Kaiju Beast will appear more and more frequently, and it will become more and more difficult to deal with, and even a fourth-level Kaiju Beast will appear next year. ”

"Sometimes I wish I was wrong, but the data and information so far don't lie." Locke said: "The Kaiju Beast is just a biological weapon sent by the pioneers, and even the strength of the Kaiju Beast we have encountered so far has been greatly limited.

After all, they are countless years more advanced than our earth, and it is only because of the limitations of the wormhole itself that the overly powerful chrysanthemum beasts cannot pass through, if it weren't for this, we would have been destroyed long ago.

So as the war continues, we will definitely lose, unless our side has an endless arsenal of weapons!

At this stage, I will develop more advanced intelligent assistance systems based on the world's computer technology and artificial intelligence technology, and according to the current research and development speed, it is still expected to produce experimental large-scale robots in five to ten years. ”
