From ship girl to machine god

Although several years of use have caused a certain degree of wear and tear on Tianji 0017's body, with her careful daily care and maintenance, as well as nano-level maintenance technology, this wear and tear can be completely ignored.

But Jade Bird still gave her a body with better performance, which increased Tianji 0017's computing power by about [-]%, combat effectiveness by about [-]%, and most importantly, doubled its fashion value.

Under Jade Bird's actions, Tianji 0017 has changed from its original auxiliary role to a somewhat usable combat role.

Of course, her most fundamental purpose is to serve as her own shipboard artificial intelligence to provide assistance.

Although in Blue Bird's plan, she will also be part of the fighting force and participate in the final battle to recover the fragments of her soul.

According to Jade Bird's calculation, this battle is unavoidable no matter what. Just like when she first arrived in this world, there must be a battle between the META self and the normal self. Only after defeating each other can the broken body be broken. souls become one.

So in order to prepare for this battle, Blue Bird is also trying to improve its combat effectiveness as much as possible.

When the main body cannot be upgraded for the time being, these additional combat powers may seem insignificant, but they may also be the straw that breaks the camel's back.

While Jade Bird's mind wandered for a while, Tianji 0017 had completed the calculation of the expansion plan and replied to Jade Bird: "The plan has been drawn up. According to the best calculation plan, a new permanent base for residential use will be established. In order to achieve this goal, the four forward bases need to be expanded first.

The labor gap is estimated to be 100 people, which will be unblocked in four batches. The first batch of unblocked people is 300 people, which will be used for the expansion of the existing forward base; the second batch is 500 people, which will be completed in conjunction with the first batch of 300 people. For the infrastructure construction of the permanent base for residence, the third batch of 1000 and [-] people will be responsible for completing the initial construction of the permanent base for residence.

After the initial construction is completed, the fourth batch of 100 people will be released and the construction of a permanent base for residential use will be completed.

After the construction of the base is completed, the fourth phase of the investigation team can be completely unblocked and settled in a permanent base for residential use. The construction period will take a total of four and a half months. The above are all calculation results. "

"Everyone has heard this. Do you have any objections to this plan?" Qade Bird looked at the four group leaders and other leadership members of the investigation team sitting in front of him, as if seeking their opinions.

However, when faced with Jade Bird's inquiry, no one showed any objection.

Not to mention that the highest authority of the investigation team held by Jade Bird is enough for her to decide everything dictatorially. Just in the past few years of getting along, everyone in the investigation team has already become accustomed to Tianji 0017's calculations.

Chapter 96 The Fourth Group

For the members of the fourth group who woke up from hibernation, 'heaven' was not as beautiful as they imagined.

Or maybe they haven't reached 'heaven' yet, but are staying on Proxima Centauri b, the new home of mankind.

However, no one expressed any doubts or dissatisfaction with this point, because 'Heaven' hangs wherever they can see it. As long as they look up at the two intertwined stars, they can see where 'Heaven' is. .

And they already knew before they came that they were not here to enjoy themselves, but to build a new home for mankind.

Therefore, the members of the fourth group are fully aware and will not have any thoughts because they have not reached 'heaven'.

Compared to the fate of being drawn into dungeons on Earth and not knowing when the sun will explode, life on this planet is much better as long as you work hard.

The only problem may be that many people are not single, and they will feel worried and longing for their family members on earth.

But this is not without a solution. At least before they came, the United Government had promised to send their families to the Proxima Galaxy as much as possible.

Of course, the premise for the coalition government to do this is that the Proxima Galaxy has established the necessary facilities to accommodate more people and can be used as a colony or immigration settlement.

Therefore, for those selected from all walks of life in the fourth phase of the group, completing their tasks earlier also means that they can reunite with their families earlier.

It is precisely because of this that the members of the fourth phase of the team who were released from hibernation are the highest among the members of the investigation team in terms of work enthusiasm.

"It seems they really want to take their families to 'heaven'!" Seeing the hard work of the fourth phase group, Qingniao couldn't help but sigh to the leader of the fourth phase group next to him.

They were inspecting the construction status of the new base at this time, because it was a large permanent base designed to accommodate 3 people, and its area was larger than the four forward bases previously built on Proxima b combined.

Therefore, the main building materials for building this base are no longer provided by the mother ship.

Instead, it is provided by one of the four forward bases, the one responsible for industrial production, and the raw materials come from the planet itself.

"After all, this is the new promised land, and compared to the earth, at least we don't have to worry about the sun exploding here." The leader of the fourth phase group is also a believer of Blue Bird, so his words are also mixed with some religious vocabulary.

However, he is a conscientious leader and his religious beliefs will not affect his work.

Qingniao is very satisfied with this leader, or in other words, she is very satisfied with the several leaders of the investigation team.

"Although the coalition government will send their families here, it will be a long time coming. At present, the precious transportation capacity cannot be used to transport the families of the members of the investigation team. I hope you can convey this to everyone. , lest they have unnecessary expectations." What Qingniao said was rather cold, but it was also a necessary reminder. In addition, she did not forget to add: "Of course, with the spread of interstellar shipping, when After our transportation capacity increases, we will consider taking their families to the Proxima Galaxy as appropriate. Before that, they can return to Earth on vacation to reunite with their families."

Having said this, Qingniao patted the leader of the fourth phase of the group on the shoulder, expressed his expectations to him, and also expressed that he would add extra burdens to him.

"You already understand the situation. All members of the next group will return to Earth. They have been here for too long. It is time to return to Earth to reunite with their families. The gap created after the departure of the first group will be created by Your fourth group has come to fill in, and you need to hand over the work as soon as possible." Jade Bird said, and these words undoubtedly put huge pressure on the leader of the fourth group.

The first phase of the mission was the first to set off with the Blue Bird. Their original mission period was only three years, but now more than five years have passed, and there are still members of the first phase of the mission remaining in the Proxima Galaxy.

Originally, according to Blue Bird's arrangement, when the third phase team arrived in the Proxima Galaxy, the members of the first phase team were supposed to take the transport ship back to Earth.

However, a considerable number of them still choose to stay and work voluntarily, because they feel that the construction work in the Proxima Galaxy still lacks enough manpower. If they stay to help and work more, the people who will come after you can work less, and It can speed up the construction progress of the project, allowing the earth to move more people to the Proxima Galaxy.

This simple yet great emotion made at least one-third of the people in the first group stay, and the two-thirds who did not stay were not because they were not aware enough, but because there were already a small number of people before. She was sent back to Earth on a mission by Blue Bird. Later, when she returned to Earth, she took 100 people with her. The remaining members of the first phase of the Proxima Galaxy were already less than 600.

Later, the arrival of the third phase mission alleviated the problem of insufficient manpower of the investigation team. In addition, the scientists in the first phase mission needed to return their discoveries in the past few years to the earth. This made the remaining people of the first phase mission no longer available. not that much.

But even so, now that Blue Bird has let the first group return to Earth, there are still people who want to stay.

It’s just that this time the Blue Bird no longer needs them to show off their style. There are still tens of thousands of people in the fourth phase of the group waiting to be released from hibernation!

Therefore, for the leader of the fourth phase of the regiment, his worries are different from those of the previous regiment leaders, because he is not worried that he has no one to work on, but is worried about how he will arrange so many people who are still hibernating. a member of.

You must know that there is no large-scale hibernation facility in the Proxima Galaxy that can accommodate 3 people. These members of the fourth phase are still sleeping in the cargo hold of the transport ship.

For now, they can only continue to stay like this for the time being until the construction of the new base is completed and they can all be unblocked.

But this also caused a problem, that is, this transport ship, which can carry 3 people and a large amount of supplies, cannot return to Earth immediately in a short period of time and needs to temporarily stay in the Proxima Galaxy for a period of time.

"The leader of the first-phase group has already contacted me. At present, most of the work that the previous group was responsible for has been basically completed, but there are still some members of the first-phase group who do not plan to go back. These people are mainly concentrated in 'Heaven'. , but it’s not that they are refusing to leave, but based on the reaction of the first group, the Na’vi radicals on Pandora have been very violent recently, and they can’t leave for the time being.” The leader of the fourth group reported the information he knew. I gave it to Qingniao, waiting for her to deal with this matter.

Chapter 97 Death Beast

The extreme Na'vi people who are hostile to humans have not stopped since humans arrived on Pandora and came into contact with the Na'vi people.

Including the Na'vi tribe that first came into contact with Blue Bird and the others, a small number of tribe members were hostile to humans, and even became dissatisfied with their own tribe's sacrifices.

Because they felt that the arrival of humans had defiled their sacred homeland, and that humans had deceived Eva with lies, so that Eva allowed humans to live here.

However, humans only destroy and plunder, especially the digging of the Holy Thunder Stone, which makes these people particularly dissatisfied.

They feel that their holy land has been destroyed and defiled, especially after humans mass-produced brain-computer interfaces and enslaved the banshee-winged beast group that resided near the floating mountain that they hollowed out, which made these people even more upset. The extreme blueskin was angry.

Although humans actually followed the teachings of the Na'vi priest, followed the traditional methods of the Na'vi people, and established connections with these banshee-winged beasts through brain-computer interfaces, gaining their recognition.

But these radical Na'vi people don't think so. They regard everything humans have done as a scourge, and all technologies they don't understand are denounced as human lies.

Due to various factors, these radical blue-skinned people are just like the ignorant people who believed that telephone poles were spiritual flags and railways would destroy dragon veins and feng shui more than 100 years ago. They launched many attacks on humans and destroyed many facilities built by humans. .

Human beings naturally kept in mind Blue Bird's instructions and did not take any drastic measures. They only used tranquilizer bombs and electric shock traps to capture these aggressive blue-skinned people, and then gave them to the Na'vi sacrifices, which were handled internally by the Na'vi people themselves.

And human beings have always implemented the principle of peace and have not actually killed people.

Some of these Na'vi people want to kill all humans directly, or create some massacres to shock this group of humans who are weak and inferior to monkeys in their opinion.

After all, the average height of the Na'vi people is three meters, and they can even grow up to 3.9 meters in adulthood. The average height of humans is 1.8 meters. This gap is still a bit big.

Unless humans are all Space Marines, they really have to raise their heads in front of the Na'vi to talk to each other.

But the gap in force level between a primitive tribe and a civilization capable of traveling across galaxies is still a bit large.

The bows and arrows of the Na'vi are indeed very powerful. In the movie, they can even shoot out the bulletproof glass of the fighting mecha. This is indeed very powerful, but compared with the serious fighting mech produced by Blue Bird?

This thing is probably as powerful as a large-caliber sniper rifle, and it's not even up to the standard of anti-equipment.

The brute force of individuals is useless in the face of the power of technology.

Unless you can be like a blue bird, carrying a mountain with one hand and talking to people about numbers.

In particular, the brute strength of the Na'vi people is limited to that. Since Blue Bird told everyone to use combat mechas and full-coverage exoskeletons from the beginning, the threat these Na'vi people can pose to humans is limited to literal ones. Literally throwing stones.

In fact, they should be glad that they did not succeed in harming humans. Otherwise, according to the bottom line explained by Blue Bird, these radical blueskins and their tribes should be wiped off the map.

After the Blue Bird returned and learned about this incident, she immediately approached Priest Neville and contacted Eva through her to tell her about it.

Although according to the agreement reached between Blue Bird and Eva, these Na'vi people who actively invaded humans would not say anything even if Blue Bird killed them all, but Blue Bird still decided to talk to Eva first, at least to stand up morally. Stop.

After all, according to mankind's current plan, Pandora will definitely not give up, and the ecology of this planet also makes mankind decide not to carry out destructive development.

Under such a premise, large-scale armed conflicts or acts of war that cause huge damage to the environment will certainly not be allowed.

So even if Blue Bird has the ability to solve Eva, she is not willing to use conflict or war to solve the problem. Or, if she can solve the problem in a simple way, why use the most troublesome and endless troubles to conquer by force?

The communication with Eva was smooth. The god on Pandora did not protect those radical Na'vi people.

Although they are all the most devout believers of Eva, for the consciousness formed by the neural network of all species on this planet, the Na'vi are only a part of this world. They and other creatures and vegetation in this world are There is no difference.

What's more, although Eva is the god of the Na'vi people, her god is completely different from the beliefs of mobile phones like Qingniao. She does not need believers, nor does she care about believers.

The reason why Eva protects the Na'vi is simply because the Na'vi are members of the Pandora ecosystem.

Protecting the Na'vi is the same as protecting other creatures on Pandora. The Na'vi have just evolved to be more suitable for communicating with Eva.

If we just talk about wisdom, Tukun who appears in the second part of the movie also has extremely high wisdom and even has his own society and language. He has become a kind of intelligent life. There is no difference between them and the Na'vi people. There is no distinction between superior and inferior.

The world is unkind and treats all things as stupid dogs. The ancient wisdom of ancient China has already summed up the most intuitive and simple truth.

After obtaining Eva's permission and even a little help, Blue Bird rode the Death Beast summoned by Eva and headed towards the tribe where the radical Na'vi people were based that the Na'vi priest told him.

The Death Beast is the largest land predator on Pandora, with a shoulder height of about 2.5 meters and a length of more than 5.6 meters. It is a veritable land death.

Even the hammer-headed thunder beast, which is more than twice as long as the Death Beast, is just a slightly harder food to hunt when facing this apex predator.

This creature is as invincible on Pandora as the big cats are ecologically on Earth.

Even the Na'vi have never tried to tame this animal, even if they can ride on the back of the gryphon and become phantom knights.

The death beast that appeared in front of the blue bird was undoubtedly controlled and influenced by Eva, otherwise it would not be so obedient and let the blue bird ride on its back.

And when the blue bird riding the death beast appeared in the tribe of the radical Na'vi people, you can imagine the shock they received.

Of course, these radical blue-skinned people did not show fear because of the appearance of the Death Beast. On the contrary, they believed that the blue bird had enslaved the giant beast, and that humans had used evil tricks to deceive Eva and enslave the creatures on Pandora. Now they want to enslave the Na'vi people.

Chapter 98 Killing indiscriminately

Although in the past few years, enough connections have been established between humans and the Na'vi people, and the languages ​​​​of both parties have been translated with the help of neural connections, most humans can speak a few words in the Na'vi language. , and tribes among the Na'vi people who are close to humans also use human languages, but these radicals still only use the traditional language of the Na'vi people.

Although Blue Bird could understand, she didn't have much intention to communicate with these Na'vi people.

He just sent an order not to kill to the Death Beast under his crotch through the brain-computer interface, and then allowed the Death Beast to do whatever it wanted.

Facing the top predator on Pandora, even an entire tribe of Na'vi people have no good solution.

Although their bows and arrows are quite powerful, it is still a bit difficult to penetrate the Death Beast's skin. You must know that in the original movie, the Death Beast can withstand the cannon fire of human combat mechas.

Although the weapons used by humans in the movie give people a feeling of insufficient power, according to the official setting of the movie, the Death Beast can easily kill the Tyrannosaurus Rex, which shows the combat effectiveness of this thing.
