Chapter 541 Our Civilization is Locked Down

After completing these arrangements, Ning Chen, Song Xiyun and others continued to focus on the research and development of various technologies, and kept an eye on the latest developments of the robotic civilization on Titan.

This robotic civilization can provide them with a lot of technological inspiration, as well as a warning about the direction of civilization development. The help it brings to Ning Chen far exceeds Ning Chen's previous expectations.

During the period when the "Little Electromagnetic King" ruled the entire robot civilization, although this robot civilization was no longer as prosperous as it once was, the entire robot foundation was still there. They generally maintained a relatively high level of civilization and did not allow the level of civilization to decline significantly.

During this period, many robots tried to rebel against the robot civilization due to various reasons such as oppression by the "Little Electromagnetic King", but in the end such resistance undoubtedly ended in failure.

After all, the current robot civilization is still very powerful, and with the existence of the bug-like robot "Little Electromagnetic King", no other robot can cause any harm to it, which makes it almost impossible to overthrow the robot civilization.

They can only wait quietly for the body of this "little electromagnetic king" to slowly age, and only when the new era of robot civilization arrives will they have such an opportunity.

But the "Little Electromagnetic King" also knows this. In order to find a way to fight the aging of his body, the "Little Electromagnetic King" has mobilized almost all the available power of the entire robot civilization, trying to allow himself to survive longer on Titan, so as to prolong the time he can hold this supreme power.

However, although these efforts did extend the life of the "Little Electromagnetic King" to a certain extent, they were ultimately unable to fight against the programs programmed within its genes.

Finally, the "Little Electromagnetic King" has reached the end of his life and has to make arrangements for the future.

"Ah... our robots' lifespan is so short. Even though we have such powerful physical capabilities, we can't survive in this world for a long time. I don't know why the creator who created us designed us like this..."

Within the robot civilization, there has emerged an idea that they were created by a Creator. After all, their bodies are so sophisticated, and the development history of robots is so short, which makes it difficult for them to believe that they appeared naturally. It seems more like they were directly created by some powerful being.

This contradiction between lifespan and physical performance should be intentional, rather than really caused by their physical defects.

Recalling his short life, the "Little Electromagnetic King" still has some regrets in his heart, but the fact that he overturned the former robot civilization with his own strength is enough to make his name remain in history.

"It's a pity that until now, I have not found a robot that can truly inherit my throne. Maybe there are a few suitable candidates among them, but compared with me, your abilities are indeed too poor. There is no robot that I can safely hand over the power to..."

Although such remarks may sound a bit arrogant, "Little Electromagnetic King" has the confidence to say them. Since the birth of robot civilization, "Little Electromagnetic King" can be said to be the most terrifying robot, without a doubt.

Even though the "Little Electromagnetic King" cannot be said to be a very outstanding manager, at least relying solely on its powerful attack capabilities, it has maintained the power stability of the robot civilization for a long time, and there has been no successful "robot uprising" incident.

But no matter what, before leaving this world, the "Little Electromagnetic King" still needs to find someone to inherit his power, otherwise the robot civilization will soon fall into chaos again.

Just when the "Little Electromagnetic King" was hesitating about this question, it seemed to suddenly realize something and smiled with relief.

“Forget it… With the abilities of you robots, it would be meaningless even if I really designated a robot to inherit the power. I will let you decide everything based on your own abilities. This is also the last thing I will do for this civilization…”

After saying these words, the "Little Electromagnetic King" finally died of old age and left this world completely.

In fact, the lifespan of the "Little Electromagnetic King" is only a few years, but for these robots, this is a lifespan that they cannot reach. Many robots can only experience a part of the time ruled by the "Little Electromagnetic King" before their lives end.

The ambiguous last words of "Little Electromagnetic King" also made the other robots feel very confused, because it did not clearly designate any successor, which had never happened in the history of robot civilization.

It didn't even have a so-called "crown robot". This situation quickly caused the robot's power to be divided into several parts, and there were constant frictions between these forces.

"I never thought that the 'Little Electromagnetic King' would arrange his own funeral in this way. Although this approach seems very ridiculous, it is also a meaningful choice."

"Yes, the 'Little Electromagnetic King' seems to be more violent and impatient than his father, but he still has some wisdom deep in his heart. This 'winner takes it all' way of deciding power is the most in line with the basic laws of the universe, and it can also more efficiently solve the existing problems of robot civilization."

In this situation where there is no suitable successor, if the "Little Electromagnetic King" forcibly chooses a few robots to inherit his power, even if the robot civilization can still maintain stability for a short period of time, there will eventually be a day when problems will arise.

Instead of waiting quietly for these conflicts to break out, it is better to bring forward the time when the conflicts occur, so that the correct answer to the problem can be found as soon as possible.

As these robot forces continued to rub against each other, they gradually discovered that it was not so easy to defeat each other, which allowed them to finally reach a balance. While reaching a peace agreement with each other, they began to develop their own civilizations.

This is also the first time in all the years since the emergence of robot civilization that there are multiple robot forces on Titan that peacefully develop their own civilizations together. Under the leadership of different robot managers, their respective civilizations also have different development focuses.

Some robot civilizations are committed to developing the most powerful weapons, some hope that their bodies can continue to evolve, and some hope that the robots within the civilization can live a better life. But no matter where these robot civilizations focus, it is essential to keep themselves strong. Otherwise, they will only end up being defeated by other robot civilizations and will not be able to continue to develop their own civilization.

However, a few months later, the research content of one of the branches of robot civilization made Ning Chen and Song Xiyun very worried.

"Ning Chen... this branch of robot civilization is actually trying to figure out how to break through the barrier on Titan, and... they already have a relatively in-depth understanding of the principle of this barrier."

"Yes, it's really an incredible thing. It feels like the animals we keep in captivity are about to break out of our cages."

In fact, Ning Chen had believed in this possibility before, but Ning Chen did not expect that this robot civilization would be able to develop technology at such a rapid speed. Even when he had imposed strict restrictions on them, they had still touched upon the answers to solving these restrictions.

"According to this development trend, they may break through the barrier and enter space within a few years or even months. If these robots are allowed to leave Titan, our experiment will face huge risks."

After all, this is just an experiment. Ning Chen doesn't want these robots full of uncertainty to come into contact with the people of Blue Star, because even Ning Chen cannot accurately predict what consequences this will bring.

"It seems that we can only continue to increase the strength of the atmospheric shielding on Titan. In any case, we must try our best to break through the time it takes for them to enter space. Now is not the time to release them."

If there was no alien civilization threatening the Blue Star civilization, Ning Chen would even want to destroy all these robots directly in order to completely nip the threats he created in the bud.

However, they are also important bargaining chips in their fight against this alien civilization. Ning Chen will naturally not destroy them easily. Instead, when necessary, he will make them the "X factor" for the Blue Star civilization to fight against this alien civilization, and play an important role in influencing the situation.

But no matter what, Ning Chen will definitely not allow these robots to threaten the security of Blue Star civilization in a short period of time, so he will try his best to limit their aerospace technology.

After Ning Chen strengthened the barrier effect of Titan's atmosphere, the robots that were trying to break through the barrier soon felt this new change.

"No... No matter how hard we try, we can't break through this barrier. Its shielding effect is even stronger than we expected!"

These robots naturally don’t know that someone is secretly controlling these things behind the scenes. They are like animals controlled in a zoo and can never escape from the area where they are kept.

However, their intelligence level is much higher than those of lower animals. Although they have never been able to make a breakthrough in the field of aerospace, these robot civilizations have not stopped researching technologies in other fields.

Another robot civilization began to try to analyze their own "genetic program codes" and realized that their short age limit was indeed closely related to these "genetic program codes".

But changing this limitation is not an easy thing to do. It feels like humans cannot achieve immortality.

"Ning Chen, do we really have to let these robots figure out all these things gradually? If they can solve the problem of their limited lifespan, judging from their performance, they can maintain their lifespan for decades or even longer. Moreover, they can replace the parts on their bodies by themselves, unlike the fragile bodies of carbon-based creatures."

"Don't worry, this is not that easy to do. By the time they really have this ability, the alien civilization will almost reach the blue planet. Of course, I am not completely unconcerned about this matter, but we must reach a balance in the issue of training and restricting these robots. Now that we have opened this gap, we can't completely block it."

…………

Before I knew it, five years had passed.

During these five years, these robotic civilizations have been constantly changing. Although they have never been able to break through the barrier of Titan's atmosphere, nor have they significantly extended their own lifespan, they have still made great progress in many technologies, and even in some technological fields, they have surpassed the level of Blue Star civilization.

After several branches of robot civilizations continued to fight, a robot organization finally succeeded in organizing several civilizations together, and a unified situation appeared on Titan again.

The new robot civilization was also named "Robot Federation" by these robots. With the joint efforts of various robots, the Robot Federation reached a new height of civilization, which was far beyond the reach of the robot civilization led by the "Electromagnetic King".

After civilization has developed to a certain level, these robots are also thinking about more complicated things and are no longer satisfied with the current level of their civilization.

"We must break through this barrier that restricts us and explore the outside world! If we are trapped on the tiny satellite of Titan, our civilization will never become an advanced civilization and will be as mediocre as the stones under the ground."

"Yes. We can clearly sense the outside world, but we are unable to contact it. This is enough to show how low our civilization is. No matter why the thing that created us did this, we must find the reason and the corresponding solution."
