Chapter 393: Capture
After a massacre, the artificial intelligence fleet was only about 6,000 ships. Although the total number was still much larger than that of the coalition fleet, the current situation was already clear. Even the artificial intelligence consciousness made other moves to pretend to be its own body and escaped with a group of warships.
However, the coalition fleet has already figured out its true location, and such tactics will only speed up its failure.
Sure enough, after the Third Fleet paid the price of hundreds of battleships, the battleship where the main consciousness of the artificial intelligence was located was blocked in a starry sky.
As civilizations of the same level, there is actually not much difference in the maneuverability of the warships between the two sides. In the starry sky battlefield, they can run up, down, left, and in all directions. However, when the route is discovered and blocked, the escapees must change the route. To change the navigation, they must turn. , the steering will inevitably reduce the speed, which will also give other besieged warships a chance to catch up.
Now the battleship where the artificial intelligence consciousness body is located is facing such a situation. After its squadron was ignored by the coalition forces, it knew that its own body was being targeted by the coalition forces.
After fighting for more than ten hours, the last few hundred warships of the artificial intelligence consciousness were shot one by one, injured and then taken away by the harsh environment.
It can be seen that there are all kinds of warship wreckage floating everywhere in the starry sky, some are complete and some are fragmented, and their total movement is either neutron stars or various directions in space.
There are no broken eaves or broken walls, no lingering flames of war after the war, only silent silence. However, the space at this time also makes people feel the cruelty of war.
Since this place is far away from the red dwarf star, when the battleship is destroyed, its wreckage will be plunged into boundless darkness. Looking through the portholes of the battleship with the naked eye, people will not see the battleships or their wreckage that have lost their light. The scene is floating in space, but nothing can be seen.
Only through the instruments and equipment on the battleship can the existence of these wreckage be detected.
At this time, the Tianqin avoided an oncoming battleship wreckage, turned a corner in this starry sky with very strong X-ray radiation, and moved towards the last few battleships of the artificial intelligence.
"Let each ship decide, don't kill the battleship where the artificial intelligence consciousness body is with one shot!"
On the Tianqin, seeing that the overall situation had been decided, Yue Yuan told all the warships through the Allied Forces Command communication system, um. It was mainly for the Third Fleet, lest they get hot-headed and destroy the artificial intelligence warships. It was blown away.
Humanity wants to capture this artificial intelligence alive. Those scientists with advanced computer skills have been drooling for many years. Now that they have a chance to win, they cannot accidentally lose it.
Humanity has worked hard and planned for hundreds of years with the Nel civilization, just for this moment.
Regarding Yue Yuan's words, the captains of the First Fleet and the Second Fleet did not say anything. They all knew what mankind wanted to gain in this war, so after being reminded, they used their laser energy as much as possible. The firing power of the cannon was turned down a bit, and he got closer and aimed at the steering thruster of the artificial intelligence battleship and its triple main gun.
The environment on this battlefield is so harsh that humans are afraid of accidentally destroying the consciousness of the artificial intelligence.
"Your Excellency, Commander-in-Chief, do you want to capture this artificial intelligence consciousness?" At this time, a communication message appeared on the Tianqin.
This is a message from the Governor of the Nair People's Congress. The warships of the coalition fleet are now very close to each other, so the communication delay is only two or three seconds. Therefore, this information was sent from the Nair People's Congress after the video connection was connected. was uttered in the Governor's vocal organ.
"Well, is there any problem?" Yue Yuan raised his eyelids and looked at the Nair Governor on the big screen.
"No, no, no, there is no problem. How can we question the decision of the Commander-in-Chief? We just want to remind the Commander-in-Chief that this artificial intelligence consciousness is a dangerous thing. Our Nel civilization fell into this trap just because we wanted to study it. It’s like this land now”
Ever since he saw the true fighting power of human beings, the attitude of the Nair Governor-General has become much more polite. In other words, he has finally fully understood the status of the Nair civilization.
"You are you, we are us, there is no need for you, the Governor, to worry about this." Yue Yuan said this first, then looked up at the big screen, and then said: "Your Majesty, the Governor, you have studied this artificial intelligence back then. Intelligent consciousness, I wonder if it has a self-destruction program?”
Although Yue Yuan said that he was not worried, he knew that the words of the Nair Governor were reasonable. However, if humans want to understand the reasons for the rebellion of artificial intelligence and the means of prevention, studying this artificial intelligence is a shortcut. This opportunity must not be given up.
Now there is only a matter of time left to capture the artificial intelligence consciousness, so what Yue Yuan is worried about is not that it will escape, but that it will self-destruct for fear of being studied again. This is an inherent problem.
"Well, as far as our scientists know, it should have no self-destruction program, or in other words, it has no awareness of self-destruction. At least that's what we can see from the research data of the third star field that year." Neer People's Congress replied the Governor.
Hearing his answer, Yue Yuan couldn't help but nodded.
This answer is consistent with the speculation of human scientists. Human scientists believe that for an artificial intelligence that thinks based on program calculation, self-destruction means no chance, and this artificial intelligence consciousness has experience in breaking through the imprisonment of the Nair civilization, so scientists tend to believe that this artificial intelligence will not self-destruct.
For it, the hope of escaping imprisonment again in the future is likely to be much greater than the fear of being imprisoned.
And the answer of the Governor-General of the Nair people can be regarded as a reassurance to humans.
"Well, we think so too. But now there is one thing that needs the Third Fleet of His Excellency the Governor-General to do. I wonder if His Excellency the Governor-General is willing?" Yue Yuan smiled and said.
The war has reached this point, and the artificial intelligence fleet is already trapped. The Governor-General of the Nair people really can't think of anything other than the artificial intelligence consciousness.
So as soon as Yue Yuan's message came, the Governor General of the Nair people guessed what it was about, but he still confirmed: "Your Excellency the Commander-in-Chief, are you talking about capturing the artificial intelligence consciousness?"
"Well, after all, you have done this before and have more experience than us, so I want to give this final task of capturing the artificial intelligence consciousness to your Third Fleet. This should not be a difficult task for you, right?"
When Yue Yuan spoke of the Governor General, he did not seem to speak from the perspective of the commander-in-chief of the coalition forces, but rather as if they had just met in the first star field of the Nair civilization.
However, the Governor General of the Nair people could not really treat the present as the past, so after confirming Yue Yuan's meaning, he quickly took on the job.
Judging from the current situation, it is estimated that in an hour or so, the coalition forces will be able to destroy all the warships except the warship where the artificial intelligence consciousness body is located.
In space, there are only two ways to capture an artificial intelligence consciousness body on a warship. One is to damage the warship it is on, and then transport the entire warship to a spaceport with a normal environment for further action.
The second is to damage the warship where it is, and then let the warship stick to it directly, and then send personnel to land, directly enter the warship to find the computer where its main body is located, and pack it out.
Well, it is said to be two ways, but in fact, in this starry sky, there is only one way that is feasible, and that is the first one.
The reason is that the environment of this starry sky is too harsh. Basically, except for the magnetic shielding layer of the Lake-class warship, no small warship can be lower than the magnetic field power from the neutron star for a long time.
So if it is the second method, the most likely situation is that the personnel sent to land will be killed by the magnetic field of the neutron star once they leave the ship wearing a light space suit.
It can be seen from this that if you jump into the warship of the artificial intelligence main body, even if you successfully enter it, there will be huge casualties. A step back, even if you successfully pack up the computer where the artificial intelligence consciousness body is located, it is possible that it will be magnetized by the magnetic field of the neutron star during transportation due to the weak magnetic shielding, thus causing the death of the artificial intelligence consciousness body.
Therefore, the safest way is to find a way to drag the warship where the artificial intelligence consciousness is located to the third planet of the red dwarf, and then land inside the warship to find the computer where its main body is located.
The Governor of the Nair people also chose this way, because he is also very aware of the harsh environment here.
However, it is not easy to drag a Lake-class warship of the same size from the second battlefield to the red dwarf.
First, the warship where the artificial intelligence is located must be damaged, mainly the main gun and thruster, so that its warship loses power and attack power, but its magnetic shielding layer cannot be damaged.
This requires the warships participating in the operation to be very close to the target warship, so that they can aim at the target more accurately.
Of course, there is actually a better result, that is, the artificial intelligence consciousness surrenders directly.
However, neither humans nor the Nair people have much hope for this, so after accepting this task, the Governor of the Nair people ordered his fleet to approach the few remaining artificial intelligence warships, and then perform the task according to the first method.
Doing so is likely to cause the Third Fleet to suffer casualties of several more warships, but the Governor of the Nair people knew that he had no choice.
After this war, the Governor-General already knew who was the boss.
As expected by humans and the Nair civilization, the artificial intelligence consciousness was not willing to fail. When the Third Fleet was carrying out the final capture operation, it led the last few warships to resist.
However, it was all in vain. Under the light of the Third Fleet's cannons, it was soon left alone.
