Him and their stars

At this time, how could Feifei not understand what the other party meant? She estimated that if there was anything left behind by Count Salvin, it should be buried under the sparkling lake. You know, according to the current investigation, more than half of Earl Salvin's city hall and manor are sunk in the lake.

But then, a problem arises.

"It was only two hundred years ago, so it shouldn't have caused such a fusion of the entire landscape. Why was the Earl's manor flooded? It couldn't be a reservoir, right?"

Feifei determined that there were no traces of dam construction in this valley. Besides, there is neither large-scale farmland nor cities in the nearby valley, so there is no need to build a reservoir at all, right?

"We have to ask what happened two hundred years ago." Yamida said: "To be precise, it should be June 10th to 20th in the common calendar year 675. In less than two weeks, Over time, the mountains next to the Lord Valley collapsed, and flash floods poured into the lake, submerging half of the city. Thunderstorms occurred in the Great Pulse Plain that lasted for several years. Until now, the electromagnetic response on this plain is very chaotic. . Then came the sudden rift that almost cut across the entire continent. Current data shows that the deepest point has reached 30 kilometers and is about to reach the mantle."

All the above happened in the summer of that year. To Yamida, a very smart person, it was indeed a demonic spirit.

"Then, the last Count Salvin passed away, which happened on October 18, 675 in the Common Calendar. The Salvin family, a famous family in the empire, died out. The planet Sarna was also taken back by the Prime Minister's Office and turned into a royal domain."

Feifei frowned slightly. She knew that during that period, another thing happened. The current Emperor Elisir ascended the throne, just one year before the above things happened.

She didn't know if this had anything to do with the above things, but she couldn't help but think about it.

"At least I can be sure that this quiet and clear mountain lake is not naturally occurring." Yani said: "Of course, at least so far, no danger has been found underwater. Therefore, the Planetary Administration still agreed to let me go into the water and personally inspected."

"But they will definitely send someone to follow and protect them."

"Indeed. But under the lake, most of the empire's count's manors are hidden! A ruin of this size is like a maze. Wouldn't it be reasonable to accidentally get separated?"

"...Miss Ostana's side is not so easy to fool."

Of course, King Suliuka, who came to the God of War Festival on behalf of the Sky Patrol, could not stay on this remote planet forever. He had already left Sarna by boat early this morning. Of course, as a smart and innocent orange cat, she could not allow a white-furred fox to cause trouble in the empire's territory, so she left behind her own think tank Miss Ostana, plus a A group of elite confidants from the royal territory.

No matter how smart the eldest lady of the Bei family is, she is still on her home court after all. Feifei didn't think that she could really cause trouble under the nose of the "Lava Sword" lady.

Yamida smiled and did not answer, Feifei immediately understood: "Okay, I understand, there is a tacit understanding between superiors, right?"

"It would be fine if the orange cat didn't find it, but cats only take action when they smell fishy smell! Now that she has discovered something, naturally I have to give her something to moisturize. Of course, it’s just for her.” Yani smiled and said, “That’s good, it’s like transferring the risk.”

"Yu'er is right, those who play politics and capital are indeed dirty. And the only thing dirtier than playing politics and capital is those who play capital behind the scenes and interfere in politics." Feifei said with a smile.

"I'll just take it as a compliment. However, Yu Lian is wrong about one thing. When I really want to play politics, I will definitely do it openly." Yamida waved her hands indifferently: " Then, Miss Fina..."

"I am a literary and artistic worker preparing for the next work. I am collecting materials about you and King Suliuka. It is reasonable to follow the filming." Feifei smiled and said: "Also, Ms. Yamida, just call me Fina. .”

"Then you can just call me Yani. Well, let's just do it in one step and I'll call you Feifei."

"...Don't push yourself too far, Yani. Is that what you called Feifei too? You proud white-furred fox."

"Oh? It's just a giggling black owl, but his true nature is exposed so quickly? Sure enough, he has been smelling too much fish lately and can't suppress his hormones?"

The eldest lady of the Bei family brought not many people to Sarna Planet, but she was quite well prepared. After the two ladies, who had hit it off just two days ago and became like good best friends, slowly and slowly finished a very ladylike lunch, a standard close-fitting diving suit was delivered to Feifei.

This is actually a close-fitting power suit that does not affect body movement, but can completely isolate any harmful environmental erosion from the outside world, and also has the effect of strengthening physical strength and protection. Not only underwater, but also in outer space, it can move freely.

The eldest lady of the Bei family, a female reporter from the community, three of the eldest lady's attachés, and five security guards and guides sent by the Administrative Office, a ten-person underwater expedition team entered the tranquil mountain lake. among.

"According to the normal development of the story, there should be heavy rain and an earthquake at this time, which fits the atmosphere!" Before entering the water, Feifei looked at the calm lake with only gurgling waves and commented.

"Oh, just because of your irresistible bad taste, you two are a perfect match!"

Feifei didn't answer, but just shrugged with a smile, which meant that there were many things we could discuss about bad taste.

Yamida put on a mask that was exquisite enough to participate in a masquerade party, flexibly felt the graceful limbs wrapped in the close-fitting power suit, and entered the water first.

The guards and guides sent by the Administrative Office did not expect that their indescribably valuable guest would be such a tiger, and it was already too late to stop him. Seeing that the subordinates brought by the eldest lady all looked like they were used to it, it was hard to say anything.

Feifei followed suit.

Yamida, who was at the front of the team, turned on the underwater scanner and glanced at Feifei, who was following not far behind her, from the corner of her eye. Feifei's figure is slender and athletic, but as a literary girl, she has no obvious disadvantages. She is secretly glad that she didn't seek out that golden-haired orange cat to humiliate herself.

...When did I start to be interested in this kind of vulgar taste at the level of a female monkey? Yamada realized this immediately and felt subtly offended.

Doesn’t this mean that I finally feel a little bit human now? The eldest lady of the Belenkester family quickly saw the positive meaning in this, and started to dive according to the direction given by the underwater scanner.

This highland lake hidden in the canyon is much deeper than imagined. Fortunately, this diving team is not ordinary people. Even the attachés sent by the Administrative Office have deep diving experience and have explored the water more than once.

Even so, in order to prevent accidents, communication with the shore headquarters was still kept open through several cables. These cables are made of memory material and are said to be stretchable thousands of times. Not to mention a lake, even the sea can maintain wired connections.

This is probably because the Lord Canyon is still within the scope of the Great Pulse Plain after all, and the radio electromagnetic signals are still not very stable. Coupled with the lake water barrier, it is easier to terminate.

In addition, although their own military diving suits cannot be used in space, they can easily withstand water pressure dozens of times atmospheric pressure, and they are fully loaded with various underwater weapons. Even if there is a Kraken hidden inside, it will be torn to pieces by the concentrated fire when it first emerges.

During the dive, they did feel a bit of evil spirit, and there were more and more noises in the communication between the communication terminal and the ground. The aquatic animals in the lake hide far away behind the dense aquatic plants and rocks, as if they are hiding prey or predators observing in secret.

Fortunately, when they switched the communication to wired, the answer became clear.

The soldiers clenched the impact rifles in their hands and looked at the team of ten people around them, feeling a sense of security suddenly arise.

When exploring underwater, as long as there are a plurality of companions around you and you can maintain communication with the base camp, you will not completely lose your energy due to loneliness.

Everyone moved forward very quickly, and they reached the bottom of the water in just three to five minutes. Although the time is short, after all, you are crossing a layer of water that is tens of meters thick. Although the water waves are quite gentle, it is still very physically demanding for ordinary people. Yani ordered everyone to rest.

At this moment, behind the reef directly opposite, everyone can already see a large underwater building complex, which is the city hall of Count Salvin.

...Okay, I have to take back my preamble. In fact, less than a quarter of the ruins of Count Salvin's city hall remain above the water.

"I've heard that he is a biologist and an artist?" Feifei stepped forward and started scanning the building complex with her camera. Although these buildings, soaked under dozens of meters of lake water, are a bit blurry, if you look carefully, they still retain their elegance and sophistication.

"Except for doing some trivial tasks such as planet modification and species integration, I haven't heard of that guy having any great achievements in biology." Yani said, "But at least he does have some taste in garden art. .”

As Yamida spoke, she turned on the dishwashing function of the power suit, stepped firmly on the rocks at the bottom of the lake, and then leaned down, like a meticulous archaeologist, gently groping in the sand. With. After a while, she pushed aside a handful of sand, revealing a smooth floor tile.

"From here on, it's all the scope that we must check carefully." Yamida straightened up and said to her assistant whose name was not important,

Although he was wearing a water mask, the assistant whose name was not important seemed to be trembling.

Is this the fate that workers must endure every moment? Feifei captured all this scene in the camera, and she suddenly had a better understanding of the career Yu Lian wanted to pursue.

Almost at the same moment, in the suburbs of Crystal City, which is hundreds of kilometers away from the highland Pinghu in Lord Canyon, in a giant underground space with an average altitude of minus 100 meters, General Griffith of the Iron Army Complex stood tall. In the abandoned factory building, his mechanical arms were spread out, and a pair of light tube eyes flickered on and off. His appearance is still the three-meter-tall, domineering steel giant, but at this moment, he still feels like a pilgrim who has found a spiritual sanctuary, addicted to the satisfaction of his soul and unable to extricate himself.

"Look, Colonel, this place has at least a thousand years of history. Even though production has been suspended for nearly two hundred years, the huge factory still maintains its original appearance. This can only show that the original factory planning When constructing the factory, I took the ultimate service life into consideration, and even made certain adjustments to the underground space. I just copied the appearance of the factory, and it was enough to become the core of our robot main park. It’s really incredible. It’s a waste of time! Don’t you think so, Colonel?”

What else can I say? It's whatever you say. Yu Lian thought.

One thing to say, although this huge factory area is located underground, it is indeed designed to be very impressive. Huge factories and workshops are staggered next to each other and spread out to the end of the underground space in an orderly manner, forming a factory area full of industrial and technological feel. It is larger and more organized than the Red Maple Factory.

Any industrialist... ah no, any man would be very touched by such a large-scale technological castle.

However, if you use this thing as the core theme park, how hard-core children can be attracted!

"A thousand years?" Yu Lian asked again.

"Yes, the coordination robot factory was actually started by the first Earl of Salvin, Goron I. It started as a small factory for the production of automatic engineering machines, and then expanded step by step to its current scale. In Robotics In the field of technology, this is our Jerusalem!”

Although General Griffith is a fat bug wearing a robot skin, he has to admit that he is indeed a cultural person with high emotional intelligence. He obviously also has a considerable understanding of the cultural history of the earth, and he actually uses such allusions.

"Yes, is it that exaggerated?" Yu Liandao said: "The technology of autonomous machinery existed before the interstellar voyage. It has a history of two to three thousand years."

"This is not an exaggeration at all." General Griffith smiled: "Before the emergence of this coordination factory, most of the autonomous machine technology actually came from the reverse research of the Enlightenment technology, but the coordination factory did not Starting from nothing, a complete set of machine design, research and development and production standards were formulated. Only then did our generation of galactic civilization finally have a scientific and technological concept that completely belongs to this generation of civilization."

This is the first time Yu Lian has heard of this, but after thinking about it carefully, it seems that it is really the case.

If there is any difference between the two: no matter how powerful and advanced the robots dug out from the ruins of the Enlightened Ones are, a central point controls multiple individuals. Once the central point is destroyed, those advanced robots will either go berserk or die. They can lie down; and the robots designed by this generation will also be controlled by the center, but they all have an additional set of behavioral algorithms that can perform some relatively simple predetermined behaviors without the central command.

It's hard to say what the advantages and disadvantages of these two design ideas are, but from this perspective, the coordination factory is indeed turned upside down.

This is especially true for the robots of the Iron Army Complex. The Palladium Bug seems to really want to turn each robot into an independent social being.

...No wonder the big guys from the Omnic Brotherhood in their previous life always liked to take refuge in the Iron Army's territory.

While Yu Lian was still thinking, General Griffith had already stepped forward slowly with hydraulic iron hooves.

"According to the data, the main control core workshop is going one step further inside. I'm very curious about how the traffic roads inside are adjusted and planned! Colonel, you have to protect me!"

Yu Lian looked at General Griffith, who was more than three meters tall and looked like an iron tower, like the protagonist of a carrot movie, and thought to himself, how thick of a cocoon do you have to be able to say this?
