Because the hyperspace engine of the Petrachelys could only be used on itself and could not cover additional space like a dedicated barge, Hao Ren had to leave the golden warship here for the time being and let the autonomous robots study it while slowly repairing it. Anyway, it was impossible for the ship to start on its own. The MDT had confirmed that part of the main control system of the golden warship had suffered serious physical damage. Just below the control hall, part of the facility had disappeared as if it had encountered a black hole. It should have been accidentally damaged when Vivian opened the teleportation portal to leave this place.
Hao Ren let the Petrachelys put a few autonomous robots and a production module on the surface of the golden warship. These automatic devices would try to repair the ship and complete a comprehensive exploration after everyone left. Since there was no technical information about the treacherous children in the database, the autonomous robots would probably completely dismantle the damaged parts of the golden warship and replace them with new ones. Because they would have to write a compatibility protocol at the same time, it would take a little more time.
Hao Ren watched the autonomous robots and the production module automatically unfold on the bridge of the Petrachelys. He said casually, "We can go back first. After the ship is repaired, it will dock at CARS. The MDT should have set up its host."
As soon as his voice trailed off, a blue light suddenly flashed on the bridge. The MDT had just returned from the control center of the golden warship. It laid on Hao Ren's shoulder and yelled, "What, what, what, what? Did you mention me just now? "
Hao Ren reached out and pushed the noisy brick away from his ear. "Is it all done?"
"Oh, it's done," the MDT said triumphantly. "I have rewritten the host of the ship. Now, except for the engine group and the main power furnace that cannot be started, the ship is completely under control. If you don't believe me, look —"
As the MDT spoke, it floated in the air and began to issue commands like a remote control. The external lights of the golden warship immediately responded to its control. "You see, when I tell it to light up the headlights, it turns on the headlights; when I tell it to open the shield, it turns on the shield; when I tell it to open the hatch, it opens the hatch; when I tell it to ignite, it …"
The glowing grid at the back of the golden battleship flickered for a while, and then all the lights on the ship went out.
"Oh, it just crashed. I forgot that the engine was offline." The MDT shook its body awkwardly. "It's just a small problem. I just need to reboot it."
Hao Ren looked at the excited MDT with an odd expression. "You look like you're in a good mood. What's wrong?"
"You can see it too?" The MDT happily somersaulted in the air, its voice raised an octave. "A spaceship! A retarded version of a spaceship! A spaceship that could not move by itself! Wouldn't I be able to openly become this thing's host? With this, I don't have to fight for slots with Nolan anymore! "
There was a sudden silence on the bridge. Nolan was concentrating on checking her power department. Hearing this, she looked up with a strange expression on her face. "You also know that your usual position is stolen?"
Hao Ren looked at the MDT's excited face and was speechless for a long time. He thought to himself that the MDT was indeed retarded after coming off the production line. This guy must be crazy to be the host of a warship.
The MDT was still shouting happily. "Although this spaceship is a little primitive, at least it's a warship! No matter what, at least it looked impressive on the surface! The most important thing is that I finally proved one thing, that as long as the faith is firm, a PDA can evolve into a warship host … "
The brick was talking excitedly. Lily could not help but poke Hao Ren's arm. "Mr. Landlord, is it infected with a virus?"
Hao Ren grinned. "Haha, it's okay. It's just crazy."
The MDT was not done yet. After a while, it suddenly rushed to Hao Ren. "Yes! I have to give this spaceship a name! What do you think of the Pattianne? To commemorate my first successful evolution … If you don't want to, you can call it the Hao Ren, but you have to draw me on the hull of the spaceship … "
Hao Ren finally could not stand it anymore. He grabbed the noisy guy and stuffed it into his Dimensional Pocket. "This is research material, you idiot!"
The MDT's voice continued to echo in his mind. "It's okay. Research materials can fly. I'm very pragmatic …"
Hao Ren covered his head and wanted to bang his head on the console. "Why does such a high-tech thing not have a shutdown button?"
Y 'zaks waited until Hao Ren had finally subdued the MDT (at least on the surface. But as for how noisy it was in Hao Ren's mind, that was another matter). He cleared his throat to get everyone's attention. "Are we going back like this?"
Hao Ren patted his head, ignored the voice in his mind, and looked up at the holographic projection in front of the console.
The probes released by the Petrachelys and several supporting drones had completed a rough scan of the oblique nebula and found no active targets within the scanning range. Just as Lemendusa said, after the interstellar barrier was broken, all the rebels and guardians had gone to the last line of defense of the Star of Creation. What was left of the Gate of Solenne system was only a scorching and barren battlefield.
Such a vast battlefield, of course, there may be other clues hidden, at least a large number of weapons and equipment of both sides could be salvaged here, and there were also small strongholds and ecological planets built by the guardians in other parts of the oblique nebula (although those planets had all been burned). These remnants were very necessary to explore. Through them, they may be able to restore the respective civilizations of the guardians and treacherous children.
Hao Ren nodded to Nolan's holographic projection. "Connect me to the drone cluster."
A moment later, a constantly changing face appeared on the holographic projection of the console. It was the cluster consciousness of the drone cluster. As the drone cluster continued to grow, the cluster consciousness also became smarter and stronger day by day. Now it would even go to the Imperial Data Network to collect news that it was interested in, or record the interesting phenomena it had accidentally discovered in the process of expansion into a short film and post it on the public channel. Occasionally, it would also have a heated discussion with the drone clusters working in other universes. But in any case, as long as Hao Ren called, it would still appear immediately.
"Hello," the cluster consciousness greeted Hao Ren in a calm synthetic voice. "The drone cluster awaits orders."
Hao Ren nodded and pointed to the star map beside him. "Increase the priority of the exploration of the Gate of Solenne. I want you to build a drone nest here and explore this galaxy as an important relic. The focus is to restore the civilization that appeared here. If you find any special relics, send them to CARS. "
"The drone cluster understands. Do you need to build an outpost laboratory? Setting it in the drone nest can improve the efficiency of research. "
"Do as you see fit." Hao Ren scratched his head. "You have grown quite fast. You can make your own judgment on the infrastructure."
After receiving the order, the cluster consciousness began to command the drone nesting near the Gate of Solenne to head to the galaxy. Next, the nearby drone cluster would regard the Gate of Solenne as their new home. They would build a large drone base in the depths of the oblique nebula and excavate and salvage all the man-made relics in the galaxy according to Hao Ren's order.
Hopefully, there was something in the wreckage of the spaceship and the burning planet debris that was worthy of such a large-scale operation.
Finally, Hao Ren set up a few building units and a space-time beacon on the ruined planet of Solenne. Although the planet was completely destroyed, compared to other places in the oblique nebula, it was at least a relatively stable foothold, and there was a slight possibility of reconstruction and rescue. Therefore, Hao Ren decided to use Solenne as a "small station", just like he did in Tannagost.
Of course, it was impossible to expect the planet to recover like Tannagost. Probably only a ground station could be built.
After issuing the repair order for the golden giant ship, arranging the plan for the drone cluster to nest in the local area, and setting up a base on the surface of Solenne, Hao Ren finally confirmed that he had done everything he could do here, so he announced to return.
First, they had to go back to CARS to settle down the rebel captive that Lily had accidentally caught.
The prison system of that place would have a use.
