Chapter 1587 : The Drift Dragon
At this moment, the ancient mechanical mind had a moment of data ups and downs, the familiar voice seemed to awaken some fragmented memories in the deepest part of the Omega database, and the humming sound that kept echoing in the server hall It got a little low at first, but soon returned to normal, and he greeted the voice: “I didn’t expect to hear your voice again, Ms. Enya.”
“Neither did I expect— —When you left, my consciousness had not even recovered,” Enya said with a smile in the communication, “and when you returned to your hometown, I was no longer active in the eyes of the world.”
Omega was silent for a few seconds, then asked, ’So, are you free now?””
“Yes, I’m fine now, thanks to you,” Enya said slowly, “what about you? How are you doing over there?”
Omega searched his execution endpoints, he saw a wyrmling explorer running quickly across the plains and hills, magnificent and strange crystal-like minerals protruding from the surface, pointing to the stars, He saw that an aerospace shuttle was returning to the atmosphere, it crossed the dividing line between day and night, and was about to pounce on the forward base on the other side of the planet. The orange sun was rising on the horizon, and the sun was plated on the shell of the shuttle. Down a layer of Huiying, 1,200 kilometers away, a mining mining cart is driving a huge drill bit into the ground, searching for a wonderful heat source response, and next to the mining mining cart, the beacon that was placed last year The generator was turning slowly under the starlight, sending him the response “Everything is fine here.”
“I’m fine here,” Omega said happily – he liked the “happy” mood, “This is a very different planet from home, and during the day, ‘O’ It occupies only a small part of the sky, but its brilliance is exceptionally bright, and at night, nearly one-third of the planet’s atmosphere emits a glow due to active energy reactions, and most areas here are day and night The temperature difference is very large, and the dragons can only barely survive, but near the poles, I found a narrow temperate zone – although there is no life there.
“I originally landed close to the equator, But now it has moved north and has built a nest here. There are abundant mineral resources nearby, and the magic power in the atmosphere is roughly the same as that of the hometown. It is a comfortable place to live. Although most of the creatures in the hometown should have difficulty surviving here, it is very difficult for me and my mechanical creatures. Language is not a problem.”
“Sounds like an incredible adventure, living on another planet, even I want to try it,” Enya’s voice seemed to have a hint of a smile, and then she After a pause, he said, “I have nothing to do, I just want to ask about your current situation, Heragol and the others should also find a chance to contact you-you left suddenly, and many people are guessing where you went.”
“On the astronomical scale, I’m just a dragonfly that just flew to the door of my house, lying on the rock pile in front of the nest and probing out,” Omega said seriously, “while staying in my hometown. The people of the world will soon take this step and realize the real ‘scale’ of this world – in this small celestial system ruled by ‘O’, we are not very far away, outside the gravitational circle of stars, is the truly vast and deep starry sky.”
“Will you explore beyond the gravitational circle of stars in the future?”
“Yes, but it’s a long-term goal,” Omega said cheerfully about his long-term plans, “I don’t have the ability to build enough engines for intergalactic missions right now. The technology recovered from the legacy cannot be directly applied, and if you want to step out of the gravitational circle of stars, you must prepare well – I want to gain a firm foothold on this planet first, collect more resources, build Larger factories, research and development of higher technology, and accumulation of more space flight experience, and when the time is right, I will first launch a batch of probes, and then go to the next step when I find a suitable springboard.”
“Great travel plan,” Enya sighed softly, ’So, then what?”
“Then, explore more distant planets and look for more incredible astronomical phenomena,” Omega said, with a slight hesitation, “I think such a vast universe should be enough for me to explore for a long time.”
“Sounds good,” Enya said with a laugh, “I wish I could witness your quest, it should be fun.”
Listening to Enya’s words, Omega immediately said: “If you really want to, I can arrange for you after the tide”
“No, Omega, no It’s just a whim, and you’ve chosen a path that suits you, you have life forms and directions that are completely different from carbon-based creatures, and nature doesn’t have to provide ‘services’ to anyone anymore,” Enya’s voice was soft, as Omega remembered, “Of course, if you are lonely and want to find a travel companion, there should still be many people in your hometown who are willing to travel with you-or you Can you find something else to do? After all, pure exploration is a bit monotonous.”
Omega’s server array was humming, and there seemed to be some small ups and downs in his thought thread: “I don’t quite understand what you’re talking about, at this stage, the only thing I can think of The goal is to be ready to visit the stars, but I’ll try, what you call ‘something else’.”

Having said this, he suddenly stopped again, and after a brief thought, he added: “Of course, during this process, I also need to perform a dormancy that lasts for about a year to avoid the influence of the magic tide— —Although I’m not sure how much it affects me, it’s like a saying that humans like to say: it’s always good to be cautious.”
“Are you ready for the tide?””
“Yes, I have set up the sleep and wake-up procedures, and arranged a group of drones with basic logic intelligence to serve as guards during the sleep period, and I have also strengthened my lair, to prevent the server array from being destroyed by geological disasters during hibernation – at this point, I feel much luckier than people in my hometown, I can stop thinking like a machine, just make sure the hardware is safe to survive the magic tide, It is very difficult for carbon-based creatures to be awakened again after being dormant at the level of soul death.”
Listening to Omega’s words, Enya laughed: “This is indeed an enviable ‘talent’.”
After this, Omega talked to Enya about many things – about life in her hometown, about exploring the stars, and a lot of plans for the future, until the night grew darker. Profound, midnight is approaching, and this special “interstellar communication” is finally over.
The surrounding golden light gradually receded from Gawain’s side, and the golden dome floating in the air took a half step back. Ya withdrew her will and shook her body slightly towards Gawain: “I’m sorry it took so long – I accidentally talked too much.”
“Don’t worry about it,” Gawain waved his hand indifferently, “It is also a very meaningful thing for me to know about Omega’s wonderful exploration experience on other planets. Many of the things obtained are important references for us to develop the aerospace industry in the future.”
“That’s good,” came the gentle laughter from inside the golden dome, “you now have the energy and confidence to plan these future things, which is exactly what you are good at.”
“But it seems that you are better at planning the long-term future than I am,” Gawain shook his head, and then showed a thoughtful expression, “Are you deliberately guiding Omega in the end? What are you worried about?”
“Maybe it’s just over-worry, but a free intelligence like Omega that has been ‘transformed’ from a basic service intelligence, no one knows what he will develop into if he is not guided – after all, there was no ‘heart’ element in his original design, and when he left the planet, the only free part of his mind was ‘curiosity’, and pure curiosity was far from enough Let him understand what ‘human nature’ is.”
Enya said slowly, the golden glow of the eggshell softly undulating.
“He is now a very powerful being, a ‘super life’ made up of engines, weapons and steel megastructures that can even be regarded as a machine that operates with extreme efficiency Empire, but at the same time, the mind of this mechanical empire is far from mature, and his basic goal at this stage is only one: devour resources, strengthen himself, and find the next planet, although he thinks this is ‘exploring ‘, but in essence I think it will be an endless spreading process.
“If this endless spreading tendency is not guided from the source, I am very worried that he will eventually miss the opportunity of ‘maturity’ , to become never able to comprehend the complex emotions his creators had, which is not great.”
Gao Wen raised his eyebrows: “Then do you think your guidance will have an impact on him?””
“Who knows? As I said just now, this may just be overly concerned. In essence, Omega is actually just a child trying to understand the world, and he clearly cares about his hometown, the planet under our feet, and on this planet. The surviving race has deep feelings, and he may not need my guidance at all, and he will gradually mature on his own,” Enya said calmly, “but I think it is not a bad thing to talk more with a child who is away from home.”
Gao Wen laughed, but just as he was about to say something, a footstep suddenly appeared at the door of the terrace, and then Betty pushed open the door and appeared in front of him, the maid rubbed her eyes and glanced at it. After walking around the terrace, after seeing Enya, he suddenly became energetic: “Ah! Ms Enya! You really are here – I mean, why can’t I find you anywhere, and the guard also said that you floated away to the terrace.”
Enya was startled, and then there was a bit of embarrassment in her tone: “I just came out to blow air”
Betty interrupted her very firmly without waiting for the other party to finish speaking. : “That won’t work, it’s already too late – you haven’t hatched yet. Sleeping too late is not good for the eggshell, and if you don’t get a good rest, you won’t be able to hatch.”
The voice fell, She turned around and bowed hard to Gao Wen: “Your Majesty, I’ll take Ms. Enya back to her room to sleep! You also need to rest early!”
Then the royal chief maid ignored the protests from the golden dome, pushed Enya directly and rolled back into the corridor. With a weird expression, he turned his head and glanced at Amber: “Where did Betty learn this weird knowledge? When did she know how dragon eggs hatch?”
“You ask me who I ask – maybe Pittman taught it? Amber spread out his hands and said indifferently, while Gawain seemed to suddenly remember something, hurried to the door leading to the corridor again, and shouted from a distance to Betty who was pushing Enya into the room: “Betty! You push slowly! Don’t roll too fast to become yellow!”
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard Enya’s annoyed voice coming from afar: “You guys are finished!” Can’t get past this point, can it?”
Gawain immediately felt in a good mood.
At the same time, on the rocky planet far from Loren, lit by the radiance of “O’,” Omega, who had ended the communication, was quietly thinking about something.
The server array is humming in the hall, and countless remote execution nodes are faithfully executing various orders issued by the Omega program, exploring, mining, smelting, researching, producing, experiments, in the factories, fortresses and laboratories that are running fast, his long-term and meaningful plans are being executed in an orderly manner, like precisely meshing gears, jointly pushing a huge machine to the next plan. node.
This is what it has been doing since it landed on this planet years ago, and it is the only thing it has been doing – developing itself and going further, from the day it left home From then on, his goal was very clear.
But suddenly, he had some doubts about this simple exploration from one place to another.
After pondering for a long time, he discovered the source of these “abnormal data”: the communication with his hometown, the memory of his hometown, after hearing the familiar voice again, the nostalgia and the involuntarily generated in his mind warmth.
“Loneliness, another trait related to ‘heart’ after ‘curiosity’,” Omega’s thought thread suddenly appeared in Omega’s thought thread, he did not close this sudden extra thread, and It is to let it run quietly in the server array, and deduce it downwards, “Pure and repetitive exploration activities are of low significance, pure expansion is still mechanical labor in essence, the meaning of travel lies in the process of travel, and the current formula Travel plans are not meaningful enough except for the stated goal of ‘exploration’.
“Perhaps something more meaningful should be considered as an embellishment in the travel process to offset the impact of ‘loneliness’ . This may also help maintain the most basic connection with the hometown, and avoid being too heterogeneous to communicate with them any more.”
Data surging briskly among the server arrays, hundreds of millions of The mimetic neurons dealt with all the ideas and plans that suddenly appeared with extremely high efficiency. After an unknown period of time, there were sudden bursts of low vibrations in some areas in the depths of this alien exploration hive. The components were taken out of the warehouse, the huge assembly array began to start the new operation process, and the originally sealed biomass storage tank was also transported out from the depths of the base – which stored Omega from her hometown. The biological samples she took with her when she left, were frozen in storage tanks because they couldn’t adapt to the environment after arriving on the planet, but now Omega suddenly wants to do something interesting with them.
At the same time as the underground production facilities and experimental facilities began to operate, the shuttle hangar on the upper level of Omega’s lair also opened a passage, and a new high-speed exploration aircraft was ejected from the passage, and disappeared into the night in the blink of an eye Under the Aurora Veil – the craft flew straight north, towards the milder climate, and the data it collected from there might be useful.
The planet Not suitable for life, at least for species from their homeland, most of which will die quickly in the planet’s deadly radioactive atmosphere, day and night temperature differences, and toxic environment.
But Omega has realized that occupying a deserted stone planet alone doesn’t seem so interesting, at least at this moment he suddenly wants to see something here other than stones and his own fleet.
