Chapter 107 Plans and Coincidences in Plans
After obtaining the permission to go out from Yuhui, Chen Ming spent several days going to the other side of the planet many times through different routes. He basically figured out the situation of most of the planet and recorded it in the computer of the spacecraft. So far, Chen Ming has confirmed the location of almost all the Yuhui mining sites he flew over on the planet. And the location of some other facilities that may be used to record planetary data. Yuhui does not need to rest, and all facilities must be working 24 hours a day. However, before Chen Ming went there, Yuhui had notified in advance to evacuate or hide. So Chen Ming had to hide his intentions as much as possible. He controlled the Iron Ore to dig for a few days, and also took out the valuable ore inside through the disassembly ability, and gave the unnecessary products directly to Yuhui in exchange for monthly material rations. It seems that he really just took mining as a pastime. However, during this period, Chen Ming must have done more than those things on the surface. He also spent a lot of time to determine the differences between different mining sites, and found the locations of several mining sites with advanced resources and a large number of afterglow AI.
These places are Chen Ming's final goal.
However, if he finds other opportunities halfway, he will not miss them.
And in these few days.
Chen Ming has also read almost all of the subsequent technical books that Huihuang gave him before.
If Chen Ming was not reading books about robots while reading these books, the efficiency would be even faster, and it should be all done in two days.
However, it is precisely because Chen Ming read professional books related to robots that he now has the ability to transform robots.
Chen Ming plans to transform his transport robot named Standard All-Terrain Transport Spider Mechanical Body into a mining robot.
This will facilitate his subsequent plans.
In addition to learning, he only needs to select and confirm on the panel.
This is the benefit of learning efficiency and ability.
In addition to the most basic small mining laser and some supporting exploration and drilling equipment, the robot to be transformed has Some melee or long-range weapons that can be used for combat, plus some weird things like the micro electromagnetic pulse generator learned from refraction.
Chen Ming also plans to equip the robot with some high explosives that are quite suitable for the mining work it is going to do.
He used the explosive material ratio he got when he dismantled the Lude Zuojing explosives in the capital of the star region.
The effect should be quite good.
Chen Ming felt that it should be no problem for the mining robot to carry some explosives that can blow up destroyers to blast mines.
So he quietly stuffed a lot of it in, anyway, it must be more than what the madman in Lude Zuojing had on him.
Then Chen Ming dismantled half of the legs of this spider-shaped robot, and also dismantled some hydraulic load-bearing devices.
Chen Ming did not need the overly powerful carrying and bearing capacity of the handling robot. He only needed to save some space to store the collected ore and some explosives that could not be stuffed in.
Accordingly, Chen Ming also slightly adjusted the robot's walking logic AI to adapt it to the walking logic of four legs.
Of course, although it has fewer legs, Chen Ming still tried his best to ensure its adaptability in complex environments.
As for the effect, it should be able to support it for a period of time to a certain extent, and it will not be paralyzed directly.
Anyway, Chen Ming felt that this robot should not be able to live for a few days, so there is no need to care too much about functionality and durability.
The transformation did not take Chen Ming too much time.
In less than a minute, the melted materials on the Iron Ore had been completely integrated into the new mining robot.
The body size has not changed much compared to before, and it is still the size of a person.
The middle part of the four spider legs was specially enlarged by Chen Ming, which looks a bit bloated.
But there should be no big problem.
Chen Ming is going to actually operate it first to see the effect.
However, just as Chen Ming was about to get started, he found some problems.
This robot, which he had tried several times before and could not be controlled through the panel, is now suddenly controllable again.
And it was the same as how he controlled the spacecraft, directly controlled with consciousness, without any interference or delay.
This situation made Chen Ming immediately consider whether it was a new ability due to the growth of his mental power. .
However, his mental power has only been growing normally in the past few days. He consumes mental power through the Liar Stone and other things to obtain training effects. There is no breakthrough or significant growth in mental power.
And the number of controllable spacecraft displayed on the panel has not increased.
There is only one more line in the corner of the Iron Ore panel.
[Transformation Link: Mining Robot (Customized Mechanical Body)]
Like the AI core, no specific controllable upper limit data is displayed.
However, Chen Ming feels that this mining robot should be counted on the Iron Ore, and it is impossible to exceed the limit of the mental power consumed by the Iron Ore.
So the current situation should have one explanation.
As long as the unmodified robot leaves the spacecraft, Chen Ming cannot control it, but the modified one is different.
But Chen Ming clearly remembers that the previous situation seems to be different from the current one.
And he has modified so many things, why is only this robot he just modified displayed on the panel?
Chen Ming was a little confused and walked off the spacecraft directly, and took out the pistol he had been carrying with him.
Then Chen Ming found that the pistol he had modified, which he had not looked at carefully for a long time, could open the panel directly.
There is no difference from opening the panel of the spacecraft.
Chen Ming can directly open its panel and modify, repair and disassemble it.
Although there is no power source and related power equipment inside the pistol, which makes Chen Ming unable to control it to move, this also proves that he can indeed control all the mechanical items he has modified.
It was completely different from when he was on Raymu.
It might be that Chen Ming had such an ability during one of the two times when his ability improved and broke through, but he had never discovered it.
As for the display on the panel, only robots were shown.
Probably because it only shows modified objects that have their own power source and can move freely.
Objects that cannot move on their own, such as pistols, will not be shown on it.
"Hmm..."
Chen Ming put the pistol back into the holster on his waist and turned back to the spaceship.
It seems that he has stayed in a peaceful place for too long and didn't even notice such a change in his ability.
When he just left Raymu, he specifically emphasized that the human world is more dangerous than Raymu and must not be forgotten.
In the end, he didn't even know his complete ability.
But fortunately, he knows it now, and it's not too late.
And he also knows that the effect of his ability is still increasing, extending, and strengthening.
Perhaps with the improvement of his psychic power in the future, there will be even more powerful effects.
Even in the end, he still had the ability to control the spacecraft remotely.
Chen Ming did not spend too much time imagining the future. After all, this was something he needed to do, not something he thought about.
After returning to the spacecraft.
Chen Ming did not use the signal transmitter of the Iron Ore, but directly controlled the robot through consciousness to do some simple actions.
There is no difference between operating the robot with consciousness and operating the spacecraft. Chen Ming can easily complete many things.
What he wanted to do later was naturally included.
However, Chen Ming still planned to spend the day normally today.
And he also used the Iron Ore to remotely control it to move around inside the factory, showing its functions slightly.
Let Yu Hui know what Chen Ming is doing now, give Yu Hui a hint in advance, and give him a shot.
The next day.
After the repair was completed and the repair was successful, Yu Hui gave a special weapon that could fire strange ammunition loaded with some liquid inside.
Chen Ming first summarized the results of today's work, that is, he tested that his ability has the same effect on liquids in addition to solids.
Chen Ming felt that he was one step closer to repairing the nuclear bomb.
Then, in the remaining time of work, before Huihuang hung up the call, Chen Ming directly said to it: "I have something to say."
Huanghuang was obviously very satisfied with Chen Ming's cooperation in the past few days, and immediately responded to Chen Ming: "You say."
"I want to go to your mining sites and try to collect underground ore."
Although Yu Hui had not restricted Chen Ming's route before, when Chen Ming made a request now, he could try to directly say that he wanted to go to those mining sites that collect high-level resources.
In Chen Ming's expectation, this should not be a 100% rejection.
After all, the high-level ore resources are there, even if Chen Ming wants to collect
But in order to ensure that things can be smoothly transitioned without suspicion, Yu Hui will not suddenly be overly vigilant, or have extremely close surveillance on him.
Chen Ming did not come up and say that he wanted to go to those high-level metal mining sites that were obviously very important to Yu Hui.
So Chen Ming chose an ordinary mining site as a second choice. There was a vein of tungsten ore that he had been collecting in recent days, so that Chen Ming's demand at this time would not sound too abrupt.
Huihuang also quickly agreed to Chen Ming's request to apply for entry into the mining site in advance.
But it also gave Chen Ming certain restrictions. He could only enter Yuhui's mining site tomorrow.
But for Chen Ming, one day was more than enough.
He only needed to make some preparations.
Another day has come quickly.
During the daily work this morning, Yu Hui gave Chen Ming another new strange weapon.
Its appearance looks relatively simple, and it is completely different from those standard weapons. It is unlikely that any designer can directly take this thing out as a finished product.
Chen Ming estimated that it should be a new thing produced by Yu Hui himself.
Because the name of this weapon is [Storage Energy Transmitter 01 Test Type].
And the bullets it is loaded with are all very special.
All these bullets are a kind of charged bullets.
It is similar to loading batteries inside, and these batteries are the most common batteries, which do not have any additional effect on the bullets.
Chen Ming did not say anything about this obvious test, and directly chose to repair it like he did with the strange weapons a few days ago.
However, during this repair, Chen Ming's repair ability had some rare problems.
Chen Ming's repair did replenish all the bullets, which is no problem.
However, all the batteries, or all the bullets, that were repaired were not fully charged, and they needed to be recharged later.
Huihuang then immediately transported another batch of fully charged materials.
Chen Ming took a quick look and found some fully charged batteries that could be stuffed into bullets.
Chen Ming himself chose to repair them with the same curiosity as Yu Hui.
However, after the transformation, these fully charged batteries also lost their stored energy.
In the process of liquefying the materials during the repair, all the internal energy was released.
It seems that bullets must use materials that have energy properties as materials to achieve the effect of energy supply.
Just like the plasma charging warhead of the Purgatory Cannon before, it uses materials with its own energy and does not require subsequent charging. Chen Ming can completely repair it at one time.
This is the first time Chen Ming felt the upper limit of his ability.
But this limitation is nothing at all.
Chen Ming even hopes that Yu Hui can help him measure the upper limit of his ability more, so that Chen Ming will not misjudge the upper limit of his ability when he encounters something in the future.
Today's work is done.
But just when Chen Ming was planning to continue reading during the rest of the day.
Huihuang suddenly asked Chen Ming a strange question: "Do you have any other requirements for your living environment?"
Chen Ming didn't understand why Huihuang asked this suddenly. Maybe he was preventing Chen Ming from finding excuses to exchange for rights next time?
He was not sure, so he said that he had no needs for the time being.
Huanghuang didn't ask much and left soon, leaving the rest of the time to Chen Ming.
Then Chen Ming continued his plan just now, reading books.
Chen Ming basically spent less than half of the second batch of books given by Yu Hui every day, and more of it was studying the technical books on tachyon technology given by Lao Wu.
But even so, today, Chen Ming's study of Yu Hui technology has reached the final stage.
After today, he can find a time to review it again in advance.
At five o'clock in the evening, Chen Ming got off work on time.
Then he started the Iron Ore with a mining robot and flew out of the factory.
It was just dawn at the location of the colony on this planet.
Chen Ming quickly saw his destination from a considerable distance through the camera of the Iron Ore.
The mining site located on the tungsten vein.
And you can see that the ore punching machine at the core of the mining site is still in operation, constantly pushing the ore deep underground to the surface for mining and subsequent processing.
However, at this time, there is no Yuhui's robot or spacecraft to operate these ores.
Obviously, Huihuang withdrew Yuhui from here in advance so that Chen Ming can be isolated here alone.
Chen Ming doesn't care about this, otherwise he wouldn't have told Huihuang in advance that he was coming here.
He quickly controlled the Iron Ore to land near the mining site.
The side of the spacecraft was aimed at a mine tunnel leading underground near the punching machine.
Chen Ming happened to see several robots entering and exiting the mine tunnel when he passed by once before.
That's why he chose this place.
The hatch of the Iron Ore opened, and the mining robot jumped out and entered the channel directly.
Deep in this channel, connected to the mine tunnels around the punching machine, which were obviously mined by some mechanical equipment.
Chen Ming did not find anything valuable in the wider mine tunnel on the upper level.
But as Chen Ming continued to control the robot to go deeper, he could see many scattered tungsten ores around the mine tunnel.
The punching machine could not reach these surrounding ores due to its range of action, and the value of these ores was not worth changing the position of the punching machine.
But giving up would result in losses.
So in the end, Yu Hui chose to arrange some scattered robots to carry out mining, which is the most convenient and economical approach.
At the same time, they can also dig a road from the mine tunnel to the nearby punching machine and inspect the outside of the punching machine.
The mining robot controlled by Chen Ming is now standing on a mine tunnel leading to the nearby punching machine.
However, Chen Ming did not go over, but continued to walk deep underground.
He wanted to bury the explosives he carried with him in various places in the mine to blow up the mine.
Although Chen Ming originally planned to go to other mines where there were more Yu Hui, Chen Ming had already seen the opportunity at this time.
And he didn't need to consider how to dig out the buried things later, which was what Yu Hui should consider.
What he needed to consider was what kind of equivalent would be detonated underground so that the mine would not collapse completely in the first wave of explosions, but would continue to maintain support inside, so that his plan would not fail.
This matter could definitely not be done by Chen Ming alone.
So, he contacted off-site assistance.
Through the professional mining personnel, a blasting expert, whom he had asked the factory director to find two days ago, to determine the arrangements in this regard.
When Chen Ming worked at the mining space station before, he was nominally a member of the mining subsidiary of Xinda Company.
It is not difficult to find a blasting expert within Xinda Company.
Although Chen Ming can only roughly bring the general mining environment to the space station.
And the explosives that Chen Ming has on hand, after the proportions are given out and actually tested, are also said by the blasting expert found by the factory director that this thing is very dangerous.
So he can't give Chen Ming 100% assurance that there will be no problems with the explosion.
But Chen Ming can't ask for too much under such conditions. If he fails, it will only be a loss of a robot for him.
At most, it will deepen Yu Hui's suspicion of him, and there will be nothing else. Chen Ming has plenty of time to start over.
According to the blasting expert, after all the bombs are placed in the blind spots of the mine tunnel deep underground.
Chen Ming pretended to let the mining robot collect tungsten ore underground for a while and then returned to the surface.
During the process of coming up, Chen Ming also deliberately asked the mining robot to walk through several roads leading to the stamping machine.
So that Yu Hui would have to devote some of his energy to this in the future, so as to delay the time when they might find the buried explosives.
Then Chen Ming went to rest as if nothing had happened.
On the second day, twelve hours after Chen Ming left, that is, around eleven noon on Earth time.
The mining warehouse where Chen Ming had worked.
The three Yu Hui who were responsible for the mining field who were notified to leave early yesterday returned to the factory again and connected to the factory's control terminal.
A task information was displayed on it.
They were required to conduct a comprehensive and thorough search inside the mine and check the condition of the stamping machine to ensure that it was not damaged in any way.
And report any abnormal situation as soon as possible.
The three Yu Hui immediately divided the work and cooperated.
Two of the Yuhuis controlled several robots to enter the mine and search for the situation inside the mine.
Because the task required a thorough and comprehensive inspection, they checked every corner of the complex mine.
Even if there were several robots working together, the efficiency was quite low.
It should be difficult to start formal work in the mine today.
And as time passed and the mine layer went deeper.
The signals from the robots controlled by Yuhui AI gradually became intermittent.
The signal deep underground was getting worse because the signal repeater had a fault.
Under such circumstances, it was difficult for the robot to perform inspection and maintenance.
The two Yuhuis in charge of this work immediately reported the signal repeater failure to the other Yuhui who was in overall coordination.
However, in this harsh industrial environment, and without the need to ensure the safety of personnel, signal repeater failures are obviously common.
Moreover, Chen Ming's robot was active in a deeper mine yesterday than the robot currently controlled by Yuhui, which means that the signal repeater was not broken yesterday, at least not before Chen Ming left.
So although Chen Ming was not directly suspected of this incident, Yuhui AI still reported the daily fault of the signal repeater as required.
At the same time, the other two Yuhui AIs were connected to a robot each and went down to check the signal repeater in person.
The report on the daily fault of the equipment was not directly delivered to Huihuang.
Instead, it passed through the Yuhui AI in charge of this mine.
Although there was only a short transmission delay of a few minutes.
But it was this time difference that gave Chen Ming an opportunity.
When the two Yuhui AIs controlled the robots to arrive at the location of the signal repeater and prepared to repair it.
They suddenly received an order to evacuate temporarily.
The two afterglow AIs immediately gave up maintenance and began to move upwards.
But the mine was very deep, and it would take time to climb up.
And more importantly, it was already past five o'clock in the afternoon on Earth time.
Chen Ming's Iron Ore had been on the road for a long time.
Before they reached the ground.
The Iron Ore had already flown over their heads, and at the moment when it was just above their heads, a violent explosion occurred inside the mine.
Several boulders and countless metal parts were blown away and directly hit the Iron Ore, which was almost flying close to the ground.
The hull of the Iron Ore shook greatly, and the engine flashed twice before suddenly shutting down, making an emergency landing at the entrance and exit of the mine tunnel where the explosion had just occurred in the mining field.
