Chapter 228: The Purpose of the Management System (Second Update)
The war in Steel Fortress these past few days ended earlier than usual.
The red Valkyrie Taiyin was like a divine soldier descending from the sky, tearing apart the siege of moderates with a more ferocious momentum than before. The strength and courage she displayed moved her enemies.
After the day's battle, the Valkyrie entered a state of repair.
After instructing other weapon spirits not to disturb it, it handed over its body to the management system for maintenance, transferred the chip to the electronic bear, and then started playing happily.
Playing games with the cubs every day has become the happiest thing for him during this period. His carefree behavior reminds him of the time when he just woke up. The time when he didn't think about anything was happy and short-lived, but it is worth remembering for a lifetime. .
Now, the time spent with the bears reminds him of the past, and he becomes more and more addicted to it, unable to extricate himself.
Today, after reluctantly ending the entertainment with the cubs, it returned to its original body with satisfaction, and the smile on its face quickly solidified.
The mighty mecha stood in the management room. The mecha wrapped in armor was like a mountain, making Taiyin feel a little oppressive.
This sense of oppression does not come from combat power. After all, as one of the top combat masters, combat experts, and battlefield commanders among the radicals, Taiyin is not afraid of any enemy.
But the other party was in charge of the army.
The Overlord Army is the army directly under the leader of the radical faction. Each weapon spirit has its own huge war group. However, they do not go directly to the battlefield, but supervise each member and reward or punish them.
At this moment, it is holding the blue light badge as a reward. This badge is an item once made by Fei. As long as it is worn, the entire battle group can be illuminated with blue light.
It can slightly enhance the force field, but it is more of a kind of glory. The team holding the blue light is the target of fire on the battlefield. Only the bravest warriors can get such an honor.
But now, the warlord is playing with the badge, his red electronic eyes are looking at the content on the screen, and he is making praises from time to time.
Taiyin felt that his condensate was constantly gushing out, the power furnace was outputting energy crazily, and the CPU in his head began to overclock, but he couldn't think of any good reason.
I don't know how much time passed, but the warlord said playfully: "I didn't expect that, Your Excellency Taiyin, you would be interested in this kind of thing."
"I..."
Turning his head, the warlord's eyes gradually narrowed, and there seemed to be something hidden in the depths of his pupils. An iceberg: "You seem to be a little too addicted to those low-level entertainments, Your Excellency Taiyin."
"That is..."
"We are the shields of the Far Walkers and the apostles of the Far Walkers. We must follow the footsteps of the Far Walkers, And hone our skills and cultivate our character at any time. We should put an end to all low-level entertainment and give up all enjoyment. After all, being able to pursue the travelers is our most noble mission." "...
I understand."
" No, you don't understand! If you understand, you should know what you are doing! Open your memory bank and let me see what you are doing these days! If necessary, I don't mind sending you to have it corrected. "
The warlord's courage prevented Taiyin from smoothly carrying out energy exchange. It felt that its cooling system was getting colder, but there was nothing it could do.
Just when Taiyin felt that it was about to die, it heard the management system speak: "Dear Overseer, may I say a few words?"
Hearing this voice, the Overseer turned his head and said to the monitor above his head: "Say ."
"First of all, I want to clarify the fact that during this time, Taiyin has indeed been with those electronic bears."
"Sure enough."
She took out her fingers, green energy flew out from the Overseer's fingers, and followed the Overseer's instructions. A green force field was constructed with his will, and above it was an application for "personality correction of the weapon spirit".
Personality correction is a very scary electronic surgery. After the surgery, the device spirit itself will feel like being in prison.
They will be prohibited from most actions and can only obey the arrangements of their superiors, even if the other party's orders are extremely ridiculous.
Seeing the warlord's actions, Taiyin's condensation evaporated even more frequently.
"But..." the management system said unhurriedly, "this is my suggestion."
The warlord stopped.
Although the form is ruthless, all actions of the warlord must be based on the law.
If Taiyin degenerates into vulgar taste, it can send the other party to correct it with a wave of its finger.
But if it is a suggestion from the factory management system, then it needs to be considered.
Sitting in the Taiyin position, the warlord deployed the force field, and then said to the management system: "Tell me, why?"
"To repair myself, and to optimize my production line. As you know, the factory's production line It is already too redundant. Steel Fortress has gone through many periods. Sometimes it needs external expansion, and sometimes it needs internal infrastructure. I need to build spaceships and match them with mechas. But these production lines are piled up inside the factory, which is not good for me. Management is also a problem. So, I need someone to help me organize these equipment and production lines." "
What does this have to do with those electronic bears?"
"They are not just electronic bears, they include some things that I don't even know about. Wisdom. Your Excellency Taiyin followed my advice to establish a good relationship with those electronic bears and assimilate them. As long as the time comes, it can control those electronic bears, repair the factory, and optimize the production line." The
warlord knocked . The jaw began to ponder, and a large amount of data flowed through its CPU, making it begin to think about the authenticity of the management system's words.
The management room was silent except for the rhythmic tapping of the warlord.
During the tense wait, Taiyin felt that time was stretched infinitely, and the sound of the power furnace operating was close to its ears, making it feel that this moment was the longest moment in its life.
Finally, the warlord spoke.
"Management system, I agree with you, but I will still start from the results. Please tell me how much the efficiency of the factory will be improved after optimization?" "
Fifteen to twenty times, and the factory can freely choose products."
This number surprised the warlord, but the management system didn't seem to be joking.
Increased efficiency means radicals have access to more firepower, more puppets, and the upper hand in battles with moderates.
Impressed by this number, the warlord laughed and stood up, forcing the blue light badge into Taiyin's hand.
Patting Taiyin on the shoulder, it laughed and said: "Sorry, I misunderstood you, great warrior. I didn't expect that you endured humiliation just to gain the wisdom of those outsiders. You deserve this blue light badge." . If you can succeed in this matter, then I won't mind helping you apply for the Purple Light Badge."
"...Thank you." "Be happy, you are doing something big. But..."
Lowering his voice, the warlord bent down, He leaned against Taiyin's ear and said, "If you fail to achieve your goal, I hope you know what to do."
"...I know."
"Very good."
The warlord smiled and left, leaving only Taiyin covered in condensation and the management system heaving a long sigh of relief.
Wiping the fog on the monitor with a robotic arm, the management system said: "What a terrible guy. Fortunately, I got wise out of desperation."
"How could I get wise out of desperation! You clearly kicked me into the fire pit, and then again Fill it with soil!"
"At least you don't have to worry about personality correction, although I am quite interested in personality correction. The aloof warrior turns into a cold machine after personality correction, just imagining it It makes me excited!"
"What are you talking about! You said you haven't awakened yet!"
"That's because my creator is a little perverted, and I'm just a poor guy being played by the program."
"You are obviously enjoying it! What should I do now! If the efficiency does not improve so much after a while, I will be dead." "Don't
worry, it's okay."
The gentle and calm tone of the management system made Taiyin a little more excited. Hope, couldn't help but look at the monitor and asked: "Do you have a solution?"
"No. But you won't die, it's just a personality correction. Hehe, I'm excited again!"
"Get out!"
"Okay, No kidding."
The management system became serious for a moment, and then said: "Actually, I didn't lie. Those little foreign guys do have a lot of power that I don't know about. It's not shameful to ask for help from them."
Taiyin looked at the monitor gloomily, After a while, he asked faintly: "How do you know?"
"I am modifying the test levels of the electronic bears every day to test the intelligence of the electronic bears. Their memory ability is not good, but their innovation ability and related knowledge are so good. I was surprised, so I..."
"Wait!" Taiyin interrupted the management system fiercely, "You can modify the level? Didn't you say you couldn't before?" "
...Tsk. You are an honest lady. Just be your tool, why did you suddenly become smarter?"
A chill came over, and the sense of danger brought to it by the management system was even stronger than that of the warlord, so it grasped it. Aimed at the monitor in front of him.
"Madam, put away your weapons. Even if you two factions attack together, it is impossible to destroy me. I am the management system, I am the factory itself. If everything about me cannot be destroyed instantly, I can reorganize it quickly. Then recover. I can even lurk underground and slowly copy myself."
"So, have you finally admitted that you are the awakened weapon spirit?"
"Hey, you saw through it."
The mechanical eyeball that flew out of the corner fell. He stood on Taiyin's shoulder and teased: "I'm sorry for hiding this from you all this time. But I have to play an absolutely neutral role. I don't really want to get involved in the battle between your two factions." "
Then what are you doing? What do you want to do! Why did you start to end up again this time?"
"Because it's too boring. My mission is to provide all kinds of support, and then go into the outside world with you, but you ladies are looking for trouble. There are only more than a thousand The weapon spirit can actually last for hundreds of years. The waste of various materials and the redundancy of production lines have made the surrounding resources less and less. The planets have been blown into powder by you, the energy of the stars has been drawn away by you and then consumed internally. You also use dark matter to annihilate it and turn it into energy. God knows how much you like to fight."
"That's the fault of the moderates!"
"The moderates have compromised. You radicals just like to fight. It's okay to like to fight. , the future expansion of the star map will still need you who are brainless and good at fighting. But now the constant internal friction is your fault."
Taiyin wanted to retort, but didn't know what to say, so he could only stare fiercely in front of him With his mechanical eyeball, he asked dully for a long time: "So, what do you want to do?"
"Stop your disputes and let you implement the same strategy peacefully. To be honest, I have no idea which faction of you will implement the strategy in the end. It doesn't matter, I just hate your internal friction."
Taiyin was speechless again.
"Seducing you into corruption is only part of my plan. My original goal was to help you rise to power, and then you would facilitate compromise negotiations with the moderates and implement a plan that is more beneficial to the moderates." "I will not
compromise with the moderates. !"
"Do you dare to say that in front of Fei? Do you think I can't see the little thoughts you have about Fei?"
Taiyin was speechless again.
It feels that it has been manipulated by the management system and that all its ideas are captured by the other party.
This feeling was like being stuck in the enemy's force field, and a sense of powerlessness swept over him, making him not know what to do next.
Aware of the loosening of Taiyin, the management system continued: "And I'm not lying, those outsiders have extraordinary potential. Using them, we can indeed improve efficiency and reduce the consumption of the factory. So, join forces with me, I I need your power."
Taiyin's mood relaxed a little, but he still gritted his teeth and said: "I won't..."
"Fei is not dead."
The sudden bombshell overloaded Taiyin's power furnace, and he couldn't help but say : "What...how can you be sure..."
"There was an external electronic bear before, and the signal on the other party was Fei's. According to my intelligence analysis, there is a high probability that Fei will be fine. So, if you please those little bears, Maybe we can learn about Fei's current situation from them, and maybe even find a way to re-enter the slide rail."
Previously, the information given by the management system was that there was a problem with the slide rail, and it was temporarily unable to locate and travel.
But it now appears that the management system is not telling the truth.
In order to achieve its own goals, this cunning thing began to conduct intelligence operations and develop the situation in its favor.
Although he knew that cooperating with the other party was tantamount to seeking the skin of a tiger, Taiyin's worry about Fei finally overwhelmed everything, and made him ask coldly: "How can we cooperate?"
"Don't worry, I won't let you do anything that goes against your mission. . We just need to act step by step."
