Then according to Wilick's instructions, they came to a large reef at the end of the road.
This place was just a simple camouflage. From the top, it looked like a reef, but from the side of the road, it looked like a four-meter-high and eight-meter-wide door. The small door next to it was open, and someone was walking out from it.
This was the entrance and exit of the conversion station.
Fang Linyan and Vulcan stepped forward quickly. The person who walked out of it was in a hurry. His attention was all on the rising black smoke in the distance. His face showed a shocked and dull expression as if his whole spirit and worldview were destroyed.
Just like that, the two of them successfully entered the interior of the transfer station without any surprises or dangers.
This place was mainly divided into 2 functional areas, the infusion area and the conversion area.
As the name implied, the infusion area was the area where the Ent energy was converted into energy blocks that the mechanical metal life could eat, and the conversion area was the area where the Ent energy was converted into electrical energy.
The infusion area was presided over by an artificial intelligence that made sound waves. It was almost fully automated. Humans could hardly enter it at ordinary times.
More importantly, Earthquake would come here every two days to replenish himself. That was because consuming the liquid energy in the energy blocks was not only a requirement, but also a form of enjoyment for the mechanical metal life form. It was even purer than drinking wine for humans.
Therefore, if they were lucky, they could solve the 2 major purposes of coming to this island at once!!
After entering the interior of the conversion station, Fang Linyan and the other person entered a room similar to an elevator box next to them, then they found a chair and sat down. They took out Wilick's identity card and swiped it lightly beside them.
Suddenly, the seat slowly turned, and then the seat belt popped out to protect the 2 of them. Then, the entire box slowly slid out to the side.
It could be seen that this thing was like a sightseeing elevator that moved along the track. From the translucent box, one could see the operation of a large number of machines outside. It could be said that it was clear at a glance, and any problems could be found immediately.
And this was what Wilick usually did most of the time: That was inspection.
On the one hand, it was to eliminate possible mechanical failures; on the other hand, it was to monitor whether the rest of the workers were lazy.
When the patrol cabin was halfway on the fixed track, Vulture reached out and pressed a blue button on the side. The word 'rest' was written on the side.
Then, the patrol cabin changed its direction and slid to the side of the passage. Finally, it slid into a spacious and bright place that looked like the front desk of a company. Then, it slowly stopped and opened the door next to it.
The seat belt was automatically removed. Fang Linyan and Vulture stood up and looked around. This was the rest area of the entire conversion station. There was a coffee machine, a billiard room, a sofa, a bathroom, a game machine, a smoking room and so on.
At this time, there were three people inside who were chatting. When they saw the two unfamiliar faces enter, they were obviously surprised.
However, Vulture had already made the first move. He casually took out a document from his bosom and waved it before saying:
"Internal Affairs. Do you have someone called Wilick here?"
When the 3 of them heard the words "internal affairs department", their faces suddenly changed, but this was normal. After all, the reputation of the internal affairs department wasn't very good. It could even be described as notorious. Therefore, only one of the men nodded sullenly and said,
"Yes."
After he answered, another man stood up and said, "That's right.
"Sorry, I have to rush to see the pressure of the compression furnace. If it is more than 20%, there will be an accident. I have to rush over immediately!"
As soon as this person took the lead, the other 2 people also found an excuse to leave one after another.
As soon as they left, the 2 exchanged a look, then they walked around the decorated lecture hall. Although they didn't find anything around, they noticed that there was a strange round box on the table in the center. The box was shining with little red hearts from time to time.
Fang Linyan guessed that this was a virtual projector, so he walked over immediately. When he stepped over a circle of isolation lines next to the floor, the projector suddenly lit up and projected an image in mid-air. First, an old face was projected on it, then an old man of the same height appeared.
This old man looked a little slovenly. His eyebrows were raised, and his appearance looked a little stubborn and strange. He turned his eyes and saw Fang Linyan and Vulture, then he immediately said,
"Who are you? There are no relevant characteristics of you in the database at all!!"
"Hurry up and take out a valid certificate. I will give you 10 seconds, otherwise, I will immediately enter a state of emergency!"
Vulture glanced at the old man, then he suddenly said,
“BAOS817。”
This voice password was told to them by Abbotts. This guy's position was not high, but he had a lot of power. His voice password could allow him to obtain the second-class authority of the artificial intelligence in front of him, which was already a very high level.
Because even if the minister in charge of the work came in person, he could only get the first-class authority.
This old man was a brand-new flesh artificial intelligence developed by Marcus. Marcus was really a genius. He just borrowed and didn't plagiarize. He actually thought of using a real person's personality to integrate with artificial intelligence, and he even developed a set of systems.
Although this system was very cruel, the technology had reached the ultimate level of flesh and machine integration.
It wasn't easy to combine a living person's brain with a CPU, destroy the emotional area inside the brain, and still retain the logical thinking ability of the human brain. Marcus had blazed a new path and reached another peak in this technology. It was almost comparable to a real digital life.
However, at this time, there were two biggest drawbacks of this imperfect technology.
First, the human brain that had its emotional regions removed was not a mechanical creation. Occasionally, it would still lose control. It was like a person whose living environment had not changed, but his mood would always be happy or irritated. It was like a roller coaster ride, which would lead to unexpected situations in the region under his control.
This was especially obvious for women, so from then on, the experimental subjects were all men.
Secondly, the artificial AI made of flesh and blood was not durable. Or to put it in a more technical way, it was fragile. So far, the longest period of use was three months, 94 days, 7 minutes, and 28 seconds.
Fortunately, after this thing was damaged, only the part that had a problem was the human brain. The part controlled by the CPU could still operate normally, so the whole system could still operate for a short period of time without any major problems.
This was also the reason why guys like Abbott could easily get a high level of authority. Once the "time bomb" of the flesh artificial AI had a problem, it was best for someone to immediately take over and manually intervene to control it.
Despite these two major drawbacks, Marcus was now fully promoting this system in the Garden of Eden. In fact, it was equivalent to a stress test of the system. Even if the cost was huge, Marcus was willing to take advantage of the surplus to make up for the deficiency.
This was because Marcus felt that this was something that could make the metal monsters look favorably on him in the short term.
For the proud Marcus, the moment when the metal monster called Soundwave stood in front of his painstaking effort and said the words "primitive and backward" with a strange mechanical tone was the most humiliating moment in his life!
***
After Vulture successfully said the password, the old man's tone immediately changed. He lowered his eyebrows and said obediently,
He lowered his head and said, "Good afternoon, Executor, this is Artificial Intelligence Life Nogannon at your service."
The so-called intelligent life form was actually just Marcus blowing his own trumpet. How could a life form without emotions be worthy of the term intelligent life form?
In fact, it was just an enhanced version of artificial AI.
Vulture glanced at Fang Linyan, and Fang Linyan immediately asked the question that both of them were very concerned about,
"Nogannon, is there any record of Earthquake today?"
Logically speaking, the whereabouts of such a core and important person like Earthquake must be absolutely confidential, but for the Eagle Faction that Soundwave belonged to, their views and attitude toward humans were not friendly. It was almost the same as the white supremacists who came to New Guinea and treated the aborigines who wore animal skins.
Therefore, when Earthquake communicated with them, his tone was similar to that of the legendary dragons.
"Lowly Marcus, kneel down!", was a common phrase. "The great Earthquake gives you XXX". In this case, the stiffness of the relationship between the two sides was definitely visible to the naked eye.
Therefore, there was no such thing as confidentiality at all. Even without Marcus' instructions, the rest of the people directly treated Earthquake as an ordinary employee internally.
