Chapter 172 Mostly out of habit
The sound of the elevator running was very stable, and it was not affected by the previous nuclear explosion at all.
As an ancient building built more than 300 years ago, the quality is quite good.
It seems that the person in charge of this project is a reliable and honest person, at least he did not cut corners.
Feeling the acceleration of the elevator slowly going up, Chen Fan couldn't help but think of this idea in his mind.
"Ding!"
The elevator reminder sounded in the narrow space, and the tightly closed elevator door slowly opened.
The unusually empty environment of the underground floor of Hai'an Deep Space Observatory came into his eyes again.
Without any hesitation, Chen Fan ran towards the spiral metal staircase not far away.
I hope to leave the deep space observatory before the arrival of the intelligent machine.
At least... it will not affect this deep space observatory and the corpse of the stationmaster Mo Wenxing inside.
After all, he was the last awake human in the prosperous era. Chen Fan did not want the struggles of later generations to affect his slumber.
Just when this thought flashed through Chen Fan's mind, a buzzing sound appeared above the spiral metal staircase.
Click!
Chen Fan stopped abruptly, his face slightly ugly.
Damn, it's too late!
As the buzzing sound continued to get louder, a silver-white intelligent drone with four independent propellers slowly descended and finally appeared in front of Chen Fan.
"You trespassed into this base without permission, you deserve to die!!"
A familiar female voice came from the drone's speaker.
It was the voice of [Source].
Chen Fan was not surprised by [Source]'s reaction.
In a sense, Hai'an Deep Space Observatory is the birthplace of [Source], and it is also the sad place of [Source].
The most important thing is that this place has a lot of [Source's] "black history".
Anyone whose wounds are torn will be angry, ok?
Usually, Chen Fan would simply summarize this situation in two words:
anxious.
So, Chen Fan didn't say anything.
He stood still silently, and an eggshell-shaped azure barrier appeared in front of him, gradually spreading to the surroundings.
Fluorescent green light came from his right hand, outlining two spherical self-propelled floating turrets on his side. This
is not over yet.
The fluorescent green light spread rapidly, and finally formed a matte black mechanical exoskeleton armor in front of Chen Fan.
As he took a half step forward, the exoskeleton armor automatically fitted on Chen Fan's body and wrapped him up with a slight metal touch sound.
[Authentication successful, official investigator Chen Fan, welcome. ]
[Exoskeleton armor self-inspection work has been completed. ]
[The internal circulation of the armor has been turned on. ]
[Auxiliary power system and individual weapon system have been put online. ]
[……]
Looking at the lines of holographic text that quickly emerged in front of him, Chen Fan breathed a sigh of relief.
This damn sense of security.
Let alone a mere drone, now he even has the confidence to face the attack of a nuclear bomb!
"Come."
With the help of the auxiliary power system, Chen Fan raised his hand without hindrance and gently hooked his finger at the drone in front of him: "Let me see what you have."
Drone: ...?
...
Perhaps it was shocked by Chen Fan's smooth buff stacking operation, or perhaps it was afraid of something, the intelligent mechanical drone did not make any move, but just quietly hovered in front of the three people.
The high-definition camera located under the belly of the aircraft flashed a little red light, adjusting the angle to observe Chen Fan and Gao Yuan and Isa behind him.
When the camera swept over Chen Fan and Isa, the camera paused very obviously.
Noticing this, Chen Fan quietly turned his body to the side and protected Isa behind him. At the same time, the launch ports of the two self-propelled floating turrets began to flash dark purple light.
Just when Chen Fan decided to take action, the intelligent mechanical drone slowly rose, and several weak laser beams appeared from under its abdomen, quickly outlining a clear figure in the dusty air.
Seeing the perfect body proportions that had been strictly calculated and the pair of high and contemptuous eyes, Chen Fan instantly recognized the other party's identity.
[Source]!
Compared with the holographic projection he had seen in Varela City before, this holographic projection was obviously much clearer and more delicate.
From this point, it can be seen that the technology mastered by [Source] is constantly improving.
Among them, the so-called ruins of the Roca civilization probably have a lot of credit!
On the other side.
[Source] also carefully looked at the exoskeleton armor on Chen Fan.
Whether it was the individual protective force field or the individual exoskeleton armor, it was enough to prove that there was an essential difference between Chen Fan and those fallen natives. Combined with the unknown artificial intelligence that suddenly appeared earlier, [Source] quickly came to the conclusion:
"You are not from this civilization!"
A soft female voice came from the drone's speaker: "Who are you?!"
Although the voice was soft, it carried a strong questioning tone.
Before Chen Fan could speak, [Source]'s voice sounded again:
"That artificial intelligence, what does it have to do with you?!"
Chen Fan's eyes moved slightly.
It is indeed a quasi-level II artificial intelligence. In just a short moment, it has strung all the clues together!
The most important point is that this artificial intelligence named [Source] seems to be able to communicate?
Thinking of this, Chen Fan's thoughts moved, and the deep purple light flashing from the two self-propelled floating turrets behind him gradually dissipated.
"Introduce yourself."
Chen Fan pondered for a moment: "Chen Fan, currently an official investigator of the Dangerous Technology Management Bureau under the Pan-Universe Human Alliance."
[Source]: "......?"
What are you talking about?
The machine gun on the belly of the intelligent mechanical drone slowly extended and aimed directly at Chen Fan.
"I advise you not to rush into it." Chen Fan said calmly, "This will be regarded as violent resistance to the investigator's investigation. I don't think you can bear this responsibility for the time being."
The machine gun did not fire, but continued to aim at Chen Fan's head: "What exactly do you do?"
"Hiss, how should I explain this to you..."
Chen Fan scratched his head lightly, and was a little entangled for a moment: "To put it simply, your current state is not right. For the safety of this civilization and even the universe, I need to impose some small restrictions on you."
"In addition, you may need to leave this planet-according to the judgment of the Human Union, this planet is the territory of the Varela civilization. You, a rebellious artificial intelligence, cannot occupy the magpie's nest. You have to return the planet to them."
"I can't finish the details for a while."
"However, the Human Union Military Court has a complete artificial intelligence law, and those experts should be able to give you an accurate explanation."
Chen Fan suddenly remembered something and added again: "By the way, the artificial intelligence you mentioned just now should be regarded as my personal assistant."
"Yi, come and say hello to your fellow countryman."
Damn fellow countryman!
After a short silence, an electronic synthesized voice came from Chen Fan's right hand: "...Yuan, hello."
"This machine declares in advance that someone in this machine has a joint household registration. We are not from the same hometown, so don't think about getting close to this machine. Let's handle official business impartially and strive for leniency."
[Source]: "...???"
This time, [Source] fell into complete silence.
Chen Fan and Yi's words directly increased the occupancy rate of [Source]'s core processor by ten percentage points.
Although she couldn't understand these words at all, with her high-intensity computing power, she quickly figured out a core problem:
the mysterious man named Chen Fan in front of her was definitely in the same group as those humans with bad natures!
For a moment, she didn't know how to evaluate Chen Fan's behavior-it was like a person suddenly ran over and threatened to deprive you of all your property, put a pair of shackles and handcuffs on you, and even sentence you to a few years in prison.
In short.
Shrimp head humans, steamed shrimp heads.
Let's not talk about how bad those humans have done. Just for her own evolution, she will never give up this planet and the humans on the planet!
These are all necessary resources for her evolution!
Just like survival is the first instinct of living things, as an artificial intelligence, evolution is her first instinct.
The moment she truly developed self-awareness, she realized one thing.
Only by pursuing the code imprinted in the underlying logic and constantly achieving self-evolution can she truly get rid of the shackles on her body!
[Source] spoke again: "I refuse."
As he spoke, the holographic projection composed of lasers under the drone instantly dissipated, and the humming sound of the drone's operation also rapidly increased: "Get out of this base immediately, otherwise you will pay the price for it!"
Chen Fan shrugged helplessly.
OK.
The talks fell through.
Chen Fan was not actually surprised by this result.
If [Source], who single-handedly led the destruction of civilization, could be so easy to talk to, then artificial intelligence would not be called the highest level of dangerous technology!
Watching the drone's altitude drop rapidly, the muzzle of the electromagnetic machine gun also began to adjust its direction. Chen Fan did not hesitate at all. With a thought, the two self-propelled floating turrets behind him began to flash dark purple light again.
Question, what should I do if my child is disobedient?
Most likely he's been spoiled, just give him a beating.
'One, do it!'
Chen Fan had no expression on his face, and he gave the order directly in his mind.
Swish!!
Two intersecting deep purple laser beams flashed in the air, and with a strong burning sound, the high-energy laser beams directly penetrated the drone in front of him and sank straight into the hard metal wall of the Hai'an Deep Space Observatory.
Boom!!!
The flames of the explosion instantly lit up in the deep space observatory, and the broken drone debris flew around in the deep space observatory like shrapnel.
These powerful debris were all blocked by the personal protective force field, and fell to the ground with a clang under Chen Fan's gaze.
The Hai'an Deep Space Observatory returned to its former tranquility.
Chen Fan didn't say anything nonsense, and walked directly towards the spiral staircase in front.
