The Mechanical Empire of the End of the World

Chapter 237 Clues

There are many machines in Black Flag City, both unmanned and manned. However, the machines have a problem, that is, they need maintenance. No matter how advanced the technology is, it cannot eliminate this, because no matter how sophisticated the instruments are, they will gradually age and require new ones. Parts Replacement.

In Black Flag City, the so-called technician occupations are in the logistics field and are mainly responsible for the maintenance of machinery.

Li Meng once asked Zhinao if robots could be used to replace manpower. Zhinao's answer was "yes", but the consumption of resources would be twice that of manpower, because the robots themselves need to be maintained, which is another consumption. .

Although biomechanical bodies like 666 consume very little maintenance and require almost no maintenance, the explanation given by "Zhi Nao" is that biomechanical bodies are not suitable for logistics because the acquisition of organic fluids is limited. Difficulty must be extracted from living things.

This is also the reason why Li Meng deliberately reduced the number of Imperial Guards. Since moving to Black Flag City, the number of Imperial Guards has remained at one thousand, without increasing or decreasing.

In the future, the demand for external operations will be entirely handled by the mechanical corps, including the SkyEye fighter jets in the sky, the "Valkyrie" aircraft carrier, and the heavy armored forces on the ground that have not yet been scheduled, such as land cruisers.

The brush in his hand touched the paper a little, Li Meng put away the brush and took a step back.

On the drawing board, an ink painting has taken shape. The hills, the red-haired female warrior, and the "Valkyrie" aircraft carrier being built in the distance are lifelike and exquisite.

After handing the brush and palette to the assistant who came behind him, Li Meng turned to Qian Yuting and said, "Are you going back in your own car, or are you going back with me?"

At the foot of the mountain, in addition to the bloated command vehicle, there is also a white and silver sedan with round wheels like the command vehicle. Although it is small, it is very delicate.

Lowering her head slightly, Qian Yuting said: "I want to go back with the master."

Qian Yuting is no longer surprised by the red-haired non-human women around her master. Although no one knows their true identities, Qian Yuting has a guess that the red-haired assistants around her master are robots. In front of those assistants , Qian Yuting is very open-minded, she will not call you "adult", but you will call her "master".

With a faint smile, Li Meng said: "Then let's go together."

It's getting late, and soon the darkness outside will fall. The fireball on the top of the energy tower will extinguish, bringing darkness to Black Flag City.

The group of people walked down the mountain. After a while, the top of the mountain became empty.

At the bottom of the mountain, two cars, one large and one small, left one after another, speeding along a broad road towards the city not far away.

What is that woman doing?

Looking at Qian Yuting lying on the commander's lap, a trace of doubt flashed in 666's eyes.

The Commander seems to be enjoying himself...

Looking down at Qian Yuting, Li Meng was leaning against the sofa with a thoughtful look on his face.

These days, Li Meng has been thinking about a question, a question about second consciousness.

If the soul can be divided and split into two, can it also be split into three?

If it can be divided into three and four, then he can do a lot of things.

The body of the main consciousness is a fragile human being and is not suitable for doing some dangerous things. If there is a third consciousness or a fourth consciousness, then he can control the Black Armored Guard to do some dangerous things.

But is it really possible?

Li Meng still remembered the feeling of splitting his consciousness. He knew how to split his consciousness.

But once the soul is divided into three, Li Meng has to consider the consequences.

After thinking about it, Li Meng still thought it would be better to ask 2020.

Just as Li Meng was about to ask, the voice of 2020 rang in his mind.

"When the commander split his soul, the main consciousness was in an unstable state. It gradually stabilized after more than a month. With the current strength of the commander's soul, splitting the third consciousness should not be difficult."

Li Meng feels the same way about 2020. His current soul is so powerful and his spiritual power is so surging that he can easily lift hundreds of tons of things. Although his use of spiritual power is still very superficial, his foundation is very solid. , there should be no problem splitting the third or even fourth consciousness.

Want to do it?

After thinking about it for a while, Li Meng decided to wait.

Now is not the time to use the third consciousness. The longer time goes by, the stronger his soul will be. He cannot split off the third consciousness on a whim. He must find a more suitable time.

On the spacious road, the bloated command vehicle gradually moved away and finally disappeared into the city.

——

New World, Maruji Country, Buru Island, Buru Port.

The weather is very good today, the sky is cloudless and blue, and the hot sun is high in the sky, scorching the earth.

Today, the busy Bulu Port welcomed another ship belonging to the Hunter Association, a wooden sailboat.

"When I get here, my mission is completed. You can only rely on yourselves as to how to go next. If you want to become a hunter, a smart mind is also indispensable. Go look for clues. This port is very big. , but it is also small in a sense, and you will find clues to the next trial venue.”

On the dock, the old captain bid farewell to the four people.

There seemed to be some message hidden in the old captain's words. After bidding farewell to the old captain, the four of them gradually drifted away in deep contemplation.

Seeing the four people disappearing into the crowd, the old captain smiled slightly, turned and left.

"It's really lively..."

Looking at the bustling crowd in the port and the noisy noise, Qi Guowei sighed.

It's really lively...

Cruz has never seen so many people before. He looked left and right, and there was only novelty in his eyes.

Li Meng seemed very casual, looking around, and said: "Many of these people should be participating in the trial."

From the clothes, it can be seen that civilians dress like civilians, and their clothes are different from civilians.

Of course, it's not entirely true. Take Qi Guowei for example, he is wearing a suit.

Slightly sideways, looking at a group of people walking hurriedly by, Lena said: "It should be, they seem to be looking for something, the old captain's words are indeed meaningful, where do you think the clue is?"

While walking, Li Meng pondered: "Since finding the clue to the next trial is also a test, then in this port, the Hunter Association must have left some clues. Blue Island is so big, the Hunter Association can't let the participants of the trial search like headless flies. Well, first look for anything eye-catching. If a stranger comes to Blue Island and this port for the first time, what is the first thing to do?"

Li Meng's words made the three people's eyes light up, and they looked around hurriedly.

"Over there, there is a huge guardrail over there, let's go and take a look..."

Qi Guowei is the tallest and the most eye-catching in the crowd. The taller he is, the farther he can see.

With Qi Guowei leading the way, the four squeezed forward.

When the four squeezed in front of the guardrail, they found what was on the guardrail.

It was a bus route map and a rough topographic map of the port and Blue City.
