Resurrection Empire

That is to say, he is always too busy and has ready-made talents available, so he has not continued to go too far on this road, otherwise he himself has the opportunity to become a top programmer capable of dominating the Nanxiang star cluster.

At the beginning, Ma Zhongfei touted him as a "high-ranking nobleman" from an ancient family with gears and integrated circuit boards on his shoulders as a super programmer.Although Ma Zhongfei seems to have a heavy responsibility to please Ma Zhongfei, it is actually not water without a source.

"The network does not use a binary algorithm, but a topological network structure that simulates biological thinking. Every analysis process of it will unfold countless possibilities like a human neural network."

"We want to deceive it and instill it with misleading erroneous cognition. The only way is not to tamper with its program directly, but to instill it with more general hints like a psychic guides human beings. .”

"Of course, this is the ultimate goal, and it is very difficult. Let's start with the simple one, analyze the lattice structure of the 'network' body, and then find the micro-current that represents computing power to travel in it and release new signals. law."

……

"This matter is very important, and we need to work together. From now on, we will recruit professionals from the original Shenxun Group and other departments, and then transfer students from the Fleet Academy who have demonstrated talents in the fields of mathematical calculation, programming, and information flow. Establish an artificial intelligence research institute. What we are going to do may not have been done in nearly a million years. But you don’t have to be discouraged, because I have completed most of the preliminary work.”

Ren Zhong didn't brag.

In fact, as early as 11 years ago, when Liu An formed a special service fleet and expressed his intention to escort, Ren Zhong had already started making preparations.

Previously, he only announced the decision, but 11 years ago, when he began to have doubts in his heart, he began to seriously study the imperial system, Liu An's behavior and the characteristics of the black mist area.

Then, he saw a new picture in the precognitive hallucination.

When he tried to strengthen his intention to enter the black mist area in his heart, he watched the Seeker spacecraft being torn into pieces by the invisible and terrifying gravitational field that boiled like huge waves, and he also saw countless ships with strengthened structures. Ships and armed warships twisted and deformed like twists and turns.The impact force and distorted gravitational field formed when the dark energy group erupts is by no means terrifying. It is definitely a destructive force, a mighty force of the universe, and it cannot be countered by human beings.

Later, he changed his mind and decided to avoid the black mist area.Then he saw a new scene.Sitting in the command cabin of the Seeker spaceship, I watched the huge gravitational waves rolling and roaring below the simulated star map.The huge Origin Star Fleet is traveling in formation, like walking on waves.And then, when the screen turned, he didn't know how many years had passed in the prediction, and he saw a large number of different types of military fleets rushing forward, which must be active in Nanxiang A coalition of space pirates in the star cluster.

Immediately afterwards, Ren Zhong began to establish a new cognition in his heart, and decided to develop technical means to deceive the "net" to prevent Liu An from discovering his own movements.This time, the precognitive hallucination in front of him became calm.

Afterwards, because the internal needs of the fleet were to digest the results of the battle of the mother ship, it was not convenient for him to adjust the focus of the fleet's productivity, so he only started to establish a new artificial intelligence talent training system and R&D system on Yuanxing, and Sun Ai This off-the-shelf Neglect-level sample assisted in the development, and a lot of the basic work has indeed been done now.

For the rest, it needs some top talents beyond conventional cognition to perfect and supplement.

In any case, when the fleet set off, it did take away a large number of high-IQ genetic talents.

A total of nearly 22 years have passed, and after a generation of reproduction, the high-level IQ level on the source star still has not caught up with the fleet. These top-level jobs still require some extraordinary genius inspiration and must be completed on the fleet.

In the blink of an eye, another four years have passed.

At this time, the fleet is still rushing straight towards the black mist area, and will arrive in a month later, and enter the stable shuttle orbit that has been used for thousands of years.

Most of the time, all the dark energy clusters inside the black mist area are doing cross-regular revolving motions around the geometric center.

The normal route would be to move tangentially and gradually enter the interior of the black mist area, then draw a curve with a large radius, follow the direction of the revolution orbit inside the black mist area, and finally pass through this area.

Theoretically, as long as the relative point of entry is correct and the safe route is smoothly cut, the journey will be smooth and stable, without any surprises or dangers.

But at this time, all the ships were ready to temporarily change direction. As long as Ren Zhong gave an order, they would immediately begin to gradually change direction, and finally maintain a tangential parallel with the olive-shaped black mist area.

The artificial intelligence algorithm used to deceive the Imperial Supernet was also developed, but new problems emerged.

According to the final research results of the Institute of Artificial Intelligence, it is determined that there must be a vehicle with direct communication capabilities that can sail stably along the original open route, and then use this as a relay point to transfer signals, linking fleet nodes and the Imperial Supernet .

The previous heavy-duty plan was to send several intelligent small workships with strong communication capabilities into the black mist area.

However, the subsequent front-line experiments jointly completed by the shuttle ship and the eye ship showed that the dense dark energy group has an unstable shielding effect on the information flow.

If the information flow signal has to pass through the entire black mist area one after another, it will inevitably be affected by occlusion, resulting in insufficient signal strength and instability, and it is easy to expose abnormalities in front of the Imperial Supernet.

This is the process of pursuing science. Only when you get to that step, can you know what problems you will encounter and solve them in a targeted manner.

Subsequently, the Institute of Artificial Intelligence, the Academy of Military Industry, the Academy of Communications, the Academy of Engineering and other departments carried out close cooperation and proposed new feasible solutions.

The plan is as follows: increase the size of work ships from a few to [-].

These [-] workships will be divided into [-] tandems along the edge of the black mist area, and will travel along non-standard routes across the staggered area of ​​countless dark energy clusters full of turbulent waves and crises.

The data of one workship after another will be connected in series and parallel, using relay, and relying on redundant bandwidth to ensure the stability of information.

At first, Ren Zhong felt that the number of [-] ships was too much, and there was no need to obtain such a large amount of redundancy, so he tried to reduce the size of the work ships to [-] ships, forming only [-] transmission chains.

But Hua Yuelan, who was in charge of this matter, refuted Ren Zhong's proposal.

In the closed-door meeting between the two of them, after hearing Ren Zhong's thoughts, Hua Yuelan slapped the table heavily and angrily said: "You were once more cold-blooded than anyone else, even if you have to sacrifice the lives of 180 billion people You didn't hesitate to become a voter. But you were too kind at such a critical moment. At certain times, kindness is weakness, and weakness will lead to failure. Tell me, what are you thinking? Ren Zhong, what kind of person are you? I don't understand you."

While speaking, Hua Yuelan's eyes, which were gradually showing crow's feet, were firmly fixed on Ren Zhong's face, her sharp eyes seemed to pierce the air and skin.

Ren Zhong shook his head and said: "After the calculation of 'Net', it is true that only 15 ships are needed to guarantee an infinitely close to 60% success rate. A transport ship requires a crew of [-] people, and there are [-] more ships. You'd lose [-] more people. It's an unnecessary sacrifice."

"Nonsense!" Hua Yuelan shouted: "You also know that it is only close to 100%, not really [-]%. What we want must be [-]%, because there is no fault tolerance rate. You have analyzed Liu An's human nature so thoroughly, you You know what will happen. Naturally, you can't take chances. I agree with the 'net' simulation calculation of the black mist area, but the calculation is based on outdated information from the Royal Academy of Sciences exploration team many years ago. The waterway in the black mist area It doesn't make sense for the Empire at all, so this data has never been updated."

"Even if its time unit is a cycle of hundreds of millions of years, too many things can happen in 600 million years, and it will bring about too much change. Although there is no huge amount of collisions in the black mist area enough to create a big explosion, but Small-scale and small-scale collisions and explosions have never stopped."

"A collision outbreak will cover a large area. Our workships may be swallowed and sacrificed at any time. If there are only [-] workships and only [-] branch communication links can be established, there is always the possibility of being completely cut off .It must be [-] ships, it must be [-]!"

Ren Zhong looked at Hua Yuelan, and remembered how she would rather go to jail than surrender to Shenxun Group when he first met her.

He was not angry when he was refuted in such a face-to-face manner, even pointed at his nose. He just thought about it anyway, and then said in self-criticism: "You're right, it's because I didn't think thoroughly enough."

In fact, he was secretly alert in his heart.

It's really dangerous. I haven't been able to get out of the mentality of resurrection, and I haven't considered enough redundancy when making decisions.

"It's good to know." Seeing that he took the initiative to criticize, Hua Yuelan nodded, "Huh... If you still say the same thing as before and don't listen to other people's opinions at all, I don't know what to do. Sigh, I actually know you I'm thinking about something, maybe I think it's better to save a few people from dying, and I'm trying to avoid unnecessary sacrifices, right?"

Ren nodded, "Yes."

Hua Yuelan suddenly leaned in front of Ren Zhong, stood on tiptoe, blinked and stared at him with a pair of big eyes.

The distance between the tips of their noses is less than half a decimeter, so that they can clearly see the pores of each other's face.

Ren Zhong suddenly discovered that Hua Yuelan was already old.

When the two first met, Hua Yuelan was over thirty years old.Over the years, although she has also used cryogenic sleep to avoid many blades of time, after all, because the position is too important and it is difficult to find a replacement, she has to wake up many times.

For example, in the past four years, Ren Zhong has been frozen for most of the time, but Hua Yuelan has been activated for four consecutive years.

Up to now, Hua Yuelan's biological age is 42 years old, which is the critical point of Yuanxing's human beings who are about to enter aging.

Even if there is a new type of anti-aging medicine, she has never relaxed and exercised, and her maintenance is pretty good, but her face is completely different from that of Ren Zhong's peers.

The years have left marks on her face and disrupted time.

This is inevitable after the large-scale popularization of cryonics technology.

Even the best friends, once they are in different positions and assume different responsibilities, they will have to face a chaotic time.

Even in married couples, unless one party is completely attached to the other, it is possible to keep the rhythm of freezing and activation in step.

The so-called living together and growing old together has become the most difficult happiness to achieve.

Ren Zhong discovered Hua Yuelan's old age, but Hua Yuelan also noticed Ren Zhong's youth.

She seemed a little sentimental, took a step back, and let out a long sigh, "Oh."

Ren Zhong: "What's wrong?"

Hua Yuelan sighed quietly, "When I first met you, we were still the same age. In a blink of an eye, you were still young and handsome, but I was already old. At that time, I actually thought about whether to have sex with you Something, but I still can’t say it out of reserve, and I also feel that the exchange of body fluids is too low-level for people like us. Who would have thought that time is really unforgiving. I want to say it now, it’s already I can't say it."

Ren Zhong: "..."

He didn't know how to answer this.

"Forget it. I have nothing to regret. After all, my original dream has been realized with your hands."

"What dream?"

"Get rid of Shenxun Group. Of course, at that time I felt that this dream was unrealistic, and I never thought that after the nine major companies of Shenxun Group withdrew from the stage of history, you would become the most domineering dictator. You don't need to explain, I know this Not what you want. I wasn't sure before, but now I'm slowly getting more and more clear."

Ren Zhong: "Well, thank you for your understanding."

"Oh, by the way, I froze some egg cells. You can use it at that time. If you can use it yourself, try it. If you can't use it, don't waste it. I'm so smart, genes can't be wasted."

Ren Zhong felt that she meant to explain the funeral, so he frowned and said, "What do you mean?"

Hua Yuelan smiled chicly: "I came up with an idea to increase the number of workships to 75, and [-] people would die. How can I stay behind with peace of mind?"

Seeing Ren Zhong opened his mouth to say something, Hua Yuelan raised his finger and pressed his lips, "Don't persuade me anymore. You are the leader of this project. You should know that there must be technical backbones staying behind Among the thousand workships advancing along the original route, making decisions on the spot, fixing bugs at any time, and maintaining the stable operation of the program. Except for you and me, only Chen Qiao is suitable. But Chen Qiao is still young, and the upper limit is higher than mine, and it’s not her turn yet. When you want her to take on this responsibility. I am 42 years old. Even if I don’t go, I can live another ten years at most. There is no difference. You don’t have to persuade me. Before I came to you, I already found the biomedical laboratory Give me a set of hormonal injections. This drug can keep my brain in the peak state of youth for the next four to six years. But once this time limit is over, I will be brain dead immediately. I did not leave myself The back road. There is no need for a back road."

Chapter 486 To the dead, an epitaph for the living

After sending Hua Yuelan away, Ren Zhong sat in the office for a while.

He once thought that once he lost his resurrection, he would have to bid farewell to the people around him one after another.

He also did a lot of psychological construction.

The construction was basically a success.

He knew from the very beginning how difficult the road ahead was.

But when this moment actually happened, he was quite caught off guard.

But this is just the beginning.

There is another more realistic problem that involves more people.

He has to select 75 people to carry out the mission.

Not one or two, but 75.

When he was in Xinghuo Town, Ren Zhong was furious because the census officer could decide the life and death of tens of thousands of people with one sentence.

But at this point, he knew what a frog in a well he was once.

Liu An is only one of the tens of thousands of imperial counts, but because of his evil thought, he dug a hole, and the fleet will use 75 lives to fill it.

And this appears to be just the beginning.

The mechanical empire magnified the evil of the source star countless times.

How ridiculous.

This trip back home was full of blood every step of the way.

Counting the reconnaissance ships, transport ships, and armed ships that were accidentally damaged during the mothership battle and along the way, as well as those who unfortunately died in the experimental accident, and those who worked on the ship for the entire second half of their lives, never rested People, the sacrifice of the fleet was too great.

Ren Zhong rubbed his temples.

"I have to get used to it."

Six hours later, Ren Zhong stood up and went to the mobilization department where Xiao Xingyue was in charge.

Xiao Xingyue used to be the star of hope of the Psychic Institute under the association, and later became the leader of the Ren Group's secret inspection department. After boarding the fleet, he began to serve as the director of the legal department.

Although she has always had objections to Ren Zhong and spent most of the time in a frozen slumber, she was supposed to be responsible for the work, but she never gave up on it.

When Ren Zhong arrived at the mobilization department, Xiao Xingyue was leading the team to conduct the final selection of personnel with the assistance of Sun Ai who was pretending to be "Wang".

Six hours ago, after Ren Zhong and Hua Yuelan agreed on a plan, they announced a new call-up order to all members of the Scouting Army.

Today, the Scout Corps still has five military departments, and the total number of scout ships has risen to 300 million, with a total of 3000 million members.

The reconnaissance army soldiers still implement the rotation system.Due to the improved armament, the "Eye" reconnaissance ship has higher performance and stronger firepower, which puts forward higher requirements for the crew members of the reconnaissance ship.Scouts are mostly elite and enjoy higher treatment than ordinary shipboard soldiers.

Correspondingly, the casualty rate of reconnaissance ship crew members is also much higher than that of ordinary ship-borne troops, but the intention of recruits to sign up to join the reconnaissance corps remains high.

Especially the Third Reconnaissance Army, which had suffered the most casualties, was the most popular.

Even if the Military Management Department raised the selection criteria and threshold for scouts, it still couldn't stop the enthusiasm of the young people.

The main crew members of the special service workship are mainly composed of two parts, one part is pure technical personnel in charge of core technology, selected by Hua Yuelan and Chen Qiao within the Artificial Intelligence Research Institute, the total number is 5 people, one person per ship.

The other part is technical soldiers, who will be selected from within the Scout Corps.

The internal selection mode is to first clearly inform the soldiers in the Scouting Legion that this is a mission that will kill you, but it is extremely important, and it is related to the life and death of the entire fleet, and then let the soldiers sign up voluntarily.

Before making the announcement, Xiao Xingyue actually asked Ren Zhong.She thinks that there is no need to make the registration requirements so clear, and there is no need to fully announce the danger of the mission.Anyway, the intelligence and communication of all workships are completely controlled by the "net". Under normal circumstances, the "net" is also used for remote control and driving. You only need to tell the personnel in the workship that this is a special task.

All information interaction will be completed under the control of the "net", and shipboard personnel have no right to consult specific information.They won't even know their exact route.In the vast universe, trying to rely on the naked eye to complete the positioning, figure out where you are, and figure out where the big troops are is absolutely unrealistic.

But Ren Zhong rejected Xiao Xingyue's proposal.

He said: "Although it is theoretically possible to keep everyone in the dark and let them die unknowingly, anyway, under the impact of the dark energy explosion, there is no information flow that can pass the news out , it seems that there is no danger of leaking the news. But I don't think so, I have lied once in the source star cleaning operation. The same thing must not happen again. If we use deception to let these people die Somehow, my inner moral court will judge me again and torture me."

"At the same time, this will also bring greater risks. Some people will realize that they have been deceived and abandoned. If any of these people develop resentment and do something beyond the technical limit, it may be The whereabouts will be exposed. People who stay in the fleet will also lose confidence in me because I lied twice in a row, worrying whether my next order will deceive people to die like this again. People's hearts will be shaken, and the citizens of the fleet may also Abandon me. In normal times, my powerful control may never be shown, but once these resentful people find an opportunity to betray me and cause me substantial harm, they will not hesitate."

"Lies may bring short-term benefits, reduce the cost and difficulty of social management, seem to simplify complicated things, and even make civilized managers addicted to it."

"However, lies are actually a poison that quenches thirst with poison. As much as you enjoy the convenience brought by lying, you will overdraw your credibility. The anger and dissatisfaction in people's hearts are like undercurrents under the deep sea. They will accumulate and one day they will erupt like a volcano. , let me pay the price of repayment."

"The reason why I was able to take over the rule of the nine administrators so easily, and easily suppress the nine major groups, and control all the resources in my own hands, is the reason. The nine administrators even made up History. When the truth of history was exposed, no one in Yuan Xing, except those with vested interests within the Nine Major Groups, was loyal to them."

"In addition to the fierce regime change, there is another way for the so-called resistance, which is to put it badly. The source star civilization, with a population of 200 billion, still encounters a series of challenges that have lasted for more than a hundred years even when it has the knowledge in the knowledge sphere. The technology stagnates because of this.”

"I can't do it again. Trust our fighters, let them know, and sign up."
