    (Oh oh oh, I forgot to ask for a monthly ticket yesterday! It¡¯s the end of the month and I asked for a monthly ticket. I just sent it out yesterday but I forgot about it!)

    On the officer's platform, a group of people gathered in front of the holographic projection. They were stunned with big eyes and small eyes. The picture showed the scene of an engineering exploration aircraft being attacked, but the scene was weird no matter how you looked at it: one could not tell the model at all,  The "strange guy" that looks like several autonomous machines haphazardly pieced together is the attacker. It waves its working arms to drive away our exploration plane. This is the entire "attack" behavior.  Even the ship-based host that had issued the alarm before seemed a little embarrassed at this time and simply shut up and remained silent.

    Qianqian rolled her eyes and looked up at the ceiling at a 45-degree angle. She didn't know what she was thinking. Anyway, as usual, she was the first to react when everyone was stunned: "Ajun, put that  Pick it up and bring it back?"

    ¡­This girl¡¯s logic is a black box, and no one will ever know the operation process, but the results come out very quickly anyway.

    "Is there any way to bring thatthat monster back?" I asked the people in the monitoring team, and the person in charge of the latter immediately gave a positive answer: Although the attacker looks weird, his "combat effectiveness" is really worrying.  It seems that its most powerful weapons are the two squeaking and sparking beam knives. There is no need to dispatch soldiers, just a few engineering probes on site are enough to deal with this funny attacker.  After receiving the order from the monitoring team, the engineering exploration aircraft, which had been in a passive defense state, immediately switched from defense to offense, using their mechanical arms to control the movements of the "enemy". The two engineering exploration aircraft were specially used to open the way in front, using their own  The tractor beam of the belt forcibly dragged the strange-looking attackers towards the mothership. The scene looked really strange, as if a bunch of toy soldiers were fighting - although the combat effectiveness of this group of toy soldiers would be much higher if thrown to the earth.  It's impressive enough.

    Basically, as expected, the strange thing resisted very fiercely. When it found out that it was about to be dragged away, it even unleashed a force even stronger than the one that attacked the exploration plane just now. Those twisted robot arms were  It was waving in the air like the Thousand-Hand Guanyin. I could almost make up a series of waaaaaaagh from its movements. It dragged out the long sound for a long time and tugged on my arm: "Ajun, is it protecting?"  Those suppression towers?¡±

    "It looks like this." I was also thinking about the origin of this strange-looking thing. It looked like it was originally an autonomous machine used in engineering. It was later modified by some crappy engineer into this appearance, and it had a huge impact.  It may be one of the autonomous machines that worked here tens of thousands of years ago when the universe was not abandoned. Perhaps the behavior of our probe to dismantle those abandoned suppression towers made this autonomous machine think it was vandalism, so it rushed out to protect it.  Your own baby?  There is probably no other explanation.

    No matter how fiercely the strange thing resisted, in the end it was dragged over by brand-new exploration machines that far exceeded its own number and were countless times more powerful. A large group of self-disciplined machines that were fighting together pushed and shoved.  Entering the mothership storage port, there was still a fierce battle until our engineers rushed over: they were beating each other with their working arms, and the attack level could not even activate the shield. However, the movement was quite lively, and they followed up.  Like a blacksmith shop.

    The engineers spent a lot of effort to separate these little guys (including a big guy), and finally had to use energy shock devices to paralyze both warring parties.  It is said that after the working arm was paralyzed, the strange-looking attacker was still hissing menacingly at his enemies. But unfortunately, its enemies were all a group of mindless self-disciplined machines. After completing the task, they went back to their own homes.  Went to the hangar for maintenance.

    We sent a new batch of engineering probes to recover the parts of the suppression tower, and the strange thing was sent to the laboratory in the scientific research ship. When we rushed over, the scientists were already busy scanning its whole body.  .

    "It is composed of a complete autonomous machine as the core and a large number of miscellaneous parts." The technician responsible for examining the body of the strange thing reported his findings. "These parts are very messy, not only  There are standard accessories for autonomous machinery, as well as spare energy tanks for soldiers, processing modules for production lines, and it even carries a shield generator component for individual fighter aircraft on its 'back'. This shield generator is almost  It¡¯s one-third the size. I really don¡¯t know how this kind of modification was done.¡±

    I turned to look at the "captive". It was now restrained by several energy suppression devices and was lying on the platform, looking very listless. We finally had the opportunity to see what this guy looked like.  A normal autonomous machine is only as big as a child's torso, but its main body is almost as large as an adult's.It was the original abbreviated version of the order, stored in an autonomous machine that only had its core left.

    "It turns out that the people who evacuated here left behind a total of twelve autonomous machines and one unmanned ship," I said to myself. "It seems that there was originally a second phase project. This universe is not  It was completely abandoned and was only temporarily deactivated. The autonomous machinery left here was responsible for continuously controlling the Gate of the Abyss, waiting for the personnel from the second phase of the project to receive it - but in the end, the people from the second phase of the project did not come."

    "Why?" Qian Qian asked blankly.

    "Looking at the time, something happened to the empire around that time," I sighed, "and then this place was forgotten."

    I can probably guess what happened next. Without personnel to receive it, the autonomous machines and the engineering ship left here will naturally continue the initial order until they are all scrapped.  In this way, the mystery that the Gate of the Abyss suddenly erupted at some time during those tens of thousands of years and was immediately suppressed can be explained: it must be the efforts of these self-disciplined guards.

    "It looks like it's the only one left in the end," Bingtis looked at the "weird thing" lying on the test bench. "I probably know where the parts on it come from. Most likely, they were made by me."  After the partners were scrapped one by one, it disassembled and installed it on itself. It seems that it was on routine patrol just now, and then thought we were attacking the suppression tower - this guy's recognition ability must be gone."

    I felt a lot for a while. What I didn't expect was that an autonomous machine could do this. Yes, it was just an autonomous machine. It was not even a war puppet. It had no personality or intelligence.  Perhaps even if it reaches this point, it still fails to realize the existence of "self". Everything it does is just to complete the task, plus a little bit of unknown mutation, to persist until today.  In any case, its mission has been completed. The Gate of the Abyss is still under control, and it has waited for the response personnel who were 70,000 years late.

    It¡¯s time to evacuate, there¡¯s nothing left to do here.
