Chapter 20 T 1006 Principles

When I woke up in the morning, the sky was already bright.

Shen Yi habitually looked around first.

Not far away, the boy was sitting on a big rock and playing with his blood-sucking vine, Zhang Jianjun was eating his own breakfast, and Lan Meier was nowhere to be seen.

"Where did the woman go?" Shen Yi asked.

Ralph came over: "Behind the bushes over there, they said they found a pond and wanted to take a bath."

Shen Yi looked at the time on the coat of arms: "Let Arias call her over, tell her that we are not here for a picnic, and put away her bad habits."

"Arias is on a remote surveillance mission, sir."

"Then let Gamble pass, and if the woman won't obey, let him freeze the pond."

"Good sir." Ralph smiled.

He took out a bottle of mineral water from the coat of arms, washed his face casually, Shen Yi sat back in the car, turned on the computer: "Zeus, tell me how your work is going."

"The programming of the T1000 was completed an hour ago, and will be sorted out later. As for your photography instruction, it is currently in progress. A total of 123 artistic photos have been obtained."

Shen Yi's fingers twitched a few times on the handheld computer: "Let me see the photo."

On the computer screen, photos jumped out one after another, making Shen Yi frown. He kept turning the pages until the last one and said: "Are you kidding Zeus, why are there so many pictures of that woman in here? And why is there still a scene of her crawling out of the bed yesterday? Do you think Take it back for Wen Rou to see? You bastard!"

"You asked me to take artistic photos."

"What does that have to do with her?"

"In my understanding of human beings, pornography and art are usually inseparable."

"...But I asked you to take pictures of monsters, not naked women."

"Women are the most incomprehensible monsters."

"...Okay Zeus, you won, at least you are not completely wrong this time. But don't take this kind of photos in the future." Shen Yi quickly deleted all the photos about Lan Meier: "Let me see Use the new T1000 program."

"I believe you will like it."

The screen changed, and a holographic image of the T1000 Liquid Metal Terminator appeared on the screen, with detailed illustrations beside it.

Then came Zeus’s explanation: “The combat use of T1000 is mainly formulated based on two basic needs, namely offensive needs and defensive needs. Based on these two needs, I formulated the three principles of the aggressor and the three principles of the guardian. ..."

Following Zeus' narration, a set of brand new liquid metal terminator procedures were gradually displayed in front of Shen Yi.

To understand Zeus's combat procedures, one must first understand a basic concept.

As a liquid metal terminator, T1000 has two biggest problems. One is that its ability is limited by power resources and cannot be used indefinitely. The second is that its offensive damage is limited, its power is insufficient, and its defensive ability is greater than its offensive ability. Therefore, Zeus's method of using the T1000 is based on making up for these two deficiencies.

If you want to solve the power shortage, you have to find a way to save the use of electricity.

Zeus discovered that the power consumption of the Liquid Metal Terminator when changing its shape is far greater than the consumption of maintaining the changed shape. That is, once a change is made, the power required to maintain the change is extremely limited. In addition, local changes consume far less power than global changes.

Therefore, Zeus proposed that when conditions permit, the number of changes should be reduced as much as possible, and those that can be changed locally should not be changed as a whole.

For example, changes such as the thorn armor look gorgeous and are very cool to use, but they consume too much power. If it is not necessary, try not to use it. Instead, you should use more practical alternatives.

The three guardian principles are established based on this core idea, which are 1. the principle of near-state change, 2. the principle of relay change, and 3. the skeleton principle.

The so-called near-state change principle: it means that when the liquid metal terminator undergoes a similar form change, the power consumption is the lowest, and when the form change with a large difference is performed, the power consumption is relatively large. For example, during Shen Yi's battle on the Intrepid, he changed from armor to shield, and then back to spiked armor. These two changes are changes with a large gap, and the power consumption is also large. But just change their order a little bit, from armor to spiked armor, then from spiked armor to shield, where the armor becomes spiked armor, it will save a lot of power.

The principle of relay transition means that the liquid metal terminator has an original form—that is, the human form with mercury texture that the cold metal does not even have skin.

No matter what form the liquid metal terminator changes into, when it returns to its original form, it will not consume any power, after all, it is returning to its original form.

But Zeus found a loophole in it. It is when the liquid metal terminator needs to change from one form to another, if the difference between the two forms is too large, such as changing from a piece of paper to a bear. Then it can completely change back to its original form first, and then turn into that bear. In this way, power is further saved. Of course, the consequence of this approach is that two changes are required. If No. 1 was protecting Shen Yi in the form of armor at that time, then the adoption of the relay transition principle will cause Shen Yi to temporarily lose protection, because No. 1 will fall off his body .

The so-called skeleton principle refers to the fact that the T1000's miniature brain originally had a large number of standard templates. If you make it into a bear, it will show the bear's eyes, fur, and skin color.

But these are actually the places that consume the most power.

It's like painting a picture.

Drawing the skeleton of a bear is easy, but drawing its eyebrows, eyes, nose, etc. is much more complicated.

However, for adventurers who put practicality first, unless it is necessary for camouflage, there is actually no need for a completely realistic imitation of the changes in battle.

I want you to turn into a bear to slap the enemy, you just need to change into a general shape, what's the use of turning into fur? So what if you turned your fur black and gray?

All can be given up!

The painting of power armor deformation only needs a skeleton, or some flesh and blood, and does not need more delicate and specific things.

Zeus made a statistic that after the T1000 uses the three principles of the guardian, the power consumption caused by its transformation will be reduced by at least five times.

As for the three principles of the aggressor, they are the three basic principles that serve to strengthen the offensive with local changes as the dominant idea.

The three principles of the aggressor are 1. the Damm principle, 2. the simulation principle, and 3. the platform principle.

The so-called Damm principle is that when the sharp weapon formed by No. 1 attacks the target, once the body breaking effect is achieved, the liquid metal that penetrates into the body surface can be partially deformed. A needle that was originally inserted into the body can be stretched suddenly to pierce the opponent, or it can be stretched horizontally to expand the wound, and even rotate like a windmill. In short, it is to expand the attack damage through local changes while attacking the target, resulting in an attack power far beyond imagination.

This is actually the working principle of the Dum bomb. After entering the human body, it bursts inside to enhance the killing effect.

Dum bullets do not exist in Bloody City, replaced by violent bullets that also have an internal killing effect. According to the rules set by the bloody city, unless it stipulates a weapon with this type of internal function, other weapons cannot have this effect under normal circumstances.

But T1000 is an exception.

It wasn't really an internal explosion, but a "local change similar to an explosion" after entering the interior... From this point of view, Lan Yan might have another headache.

Is this a violation of the rules?

There is no rule in the world that can be so complete that there are no loopholes to exploit.

The fact is often: the more rules are established, the more loopholes in the rules tend to be. The only difference is whether you find it or not.

But Shen Yi doesn't care about Lan Yan's feelings, all he cares about is the effect.

As for the simulation principle, in fact, it is to obtain more tactical functions by simulating deformation. For example, the T1000 can simulate flying claws through deformation to obtain the ability to pursue and capture in the air, or the shield can be deformed to increase defense capabilities. Shen Yi has used this method before, but it has never been organized systematically. Zeus designed twelve simulation forms for the T1000, through which to maximize the tactical effect. On this basis, more deformations are discarded to avoid meaningless consumption.

If the principle of Damm is based on improving lethality, then the principle of simulation is based on enriching tactics. The dramatic changes in tactics brought about by the simulation capabilities of the T1000 will become the nightmare of fighting adventurers.

As for the platform principle, it is actually based on Shen Yi's understanding of external reinforcement and self-enhancement. According to Zeus, no matter how evolved and powerful an adventurer is, they are still in human form after all, and it is impossible to have more arms or use more weapons.

But T1000 is not in this case.

As long as he is willing, it can be used as a weapon operation platform, so as to thoroughly implement the connotation of strengthening external objects that Shen Yizhou comprehended, and that quantity is greater than quality.

In other words, T1000 can become Shen Yi's third, fourth, or even fifth and sixth arms through local changes, and become a powerful weapon operation platform.

When the gun enhancements cannot be superimposed with the adventurer's attributes, although this leads to a waste of adventurer attributes, it also allows anyone and any existence to use gun enhancements without any scruples...

Disadvantages are advantages!

These are the six principles of liquid metal terminator method that Zeus compiled for Shen Yi.

———————————

The establishment of the six principles did not actually take Zeus too much time. It's pretty much established in this way even without leaving the world of Caribbean missions.

What really troubled Zeus was the establishment of basic program instructions.

Although T1000 is a highly intelligent robot, it is essentially controlled by instructions and does not have the ability to generate intelligence by itself.

It is easy for the T1000 to accept the six principles, but how to make its autonomous system have the ability to make quick and accurate judgments, know which principles should be adopted under which circumstances, and which principles should not be adopted under certain circumstances, then it will not be easy. So easy.

The battlefield situation is ever-changing, and each situation will have countless possibilities. It is really difficult to set an exact response standard. Although most of the time, the liquid transformation armor is changed under the command of adventurers, but in fierce battles where every second counts, it is often necessary for T1000 to understand the user's intentions first, so as to respond as quickly as possible. Otherwise, you have to wait for orders for everything, and there are always times when you can't respond.

This requires Zeus to write a perfect set of program instructions for it to accurately identify various situations and respond in time.

For this reason, Zeus has been writing programs for the T1000 day and night.

In its own words: "It's too busy for me."

Shen Yi was very disdainful: "You haven't even sweated, so there's nothing wrong with it."

Zeus was very wronged: I am a brain, and I don't have that function.

In addition to the six principles, Zeus also had to design some combat techniques. This part is not too difficult. First search the basic fighting skills, and then according to the characteristics of each person and the function of T1000, Zeus designed a set of standard skills for each person.

But the most difficult part was Shen Yi.

Because Shen Yi's fighting methods are so weird and changeable that traditional fighting skills are no longer used for him. After repeated consideration, Zeus reluctantly came up with a design suitable for Shen Yi.

This set of designs aroused Shen Yi's interest - when he used to fight with people in close quarters, he mostly relied on quick reactions to see the moves. This is the first time he has sorted out a complete and systematic combat method.

It can be said that this set/action design is not only useful for T1000, but also of great use to him.

"Beautiful job." While looking at the interactive renderings on the screen, Shen Yi said in admiration. By the way, I took out the T1000 and entered the new command program into it.

"Can I apply for a reward for this?" Zeus asked.

"What reward do you want?"

"What else can it be?" Zeus replied very dissatisfied: "Don't you humans just like to get promoted and get rich? So for an intelligent brain, what is more important than upgrading yourself? I strongly request to be promoted to B-level program, that allows me to have more powerful development capabilities, and can continue to provide follow-up services for the programs I develop..."

"You know, Zeus, I think you may have more prospects as a diplomatic negotiator than as a program designer. When Lan Yan introduced you, why didn't she say that you still have a good bargaining talent."

"I learned that from you, Master."

Shen Yi chuckled: "Okay, I promise you, after my next mission is completed, I will give priority to promoting you to a B-level program."

"I worship you, great and generous master. I want to kneel down to you and kiss your toes...if I have that ability." Zeus shouted excitedly.

Shen Yi smiled wryly: "You've read too many YY novels, but it's not difficult to use this function. Couldn't you be able to do it in the past?"

Shen Yi was just talking casually at first, but right after he said this, a flash of inspiration suddenly appeared in his mind.

Yes indeed!

Why must Zeus be confined to a handheld computer?

It was originally a program that could be implanted into any machine terminal.

As an intelligent program, Zeus already has many human-like aspects, it is fully entitled to a better body, and to move freely like a real person, even fight!

This idea made Shen Yi slightly excited, and he said: "Zeus, maybe you can design a body for yourself. I mean, a real human-like existence. You can become my better assistant, and at the same time, you can live like a human , to feel human.”

Zeus' voice trembled: "You mean...like Marcus?"

"Yes, Marcus once, isn't that exactly your dream? I can help you do it."

Zeus was silent.

After a long time, a voice came from the handheld computer: "Thank you very much, my great master, you gave me a new life."

"Then seize the opportunity and design a brand new body for yourself, so that your soul will have more room to play." Shen Yi laughed.

Gently closing the computer, Shen Yi let out a long breath and leaned back on the seat.

He was thrilled by his train of thought.

The Broken Blade team is growing and getting stronger and stronger.

He doesn't have to worry about every time he fights like before.

Seeing that the time was almost up, he was about to inform everyone that he was about to leave, when a sharp cry from a distance pierced the tranquility of the grassland.

It's Lan Meier.

Then there was a loud shout, and a mass of frosty cold light exploded in the air.
