Chapter 24 Construction

"Can you two be more careful?"

Li Chu looked at Gene and Deguna, who were dismantling the shell of the host. Many parts were dismantled roughly. Li Chu was afraid that it would be troublesome if the alarm defense mechanism was triggered.

Now Li Chu had only one thing to do, which was to dismantle the host directly, and then dismantle it layer by layer, and cover some parts that would trigger the alarm mechanism with some fog programs, so that they could crack the password and tamper with the core program. After everything was changed, these alarm mechanisms could be used by them.

"Don't worry, although we are not good at programming, we are very clear about the mechanical circuit structure and will not destroy the functional output connection part."

As Gene said, Deguna stood up, took out a cigarette, lit it, and handed it to Gene.

The two planned to rest for a while. This was the third day. They had already understood the situation in the base. Some of the laboratories below still retained some original equipment, which was great for them.

Now they have to start planning the planting, because some parts of the ground are concrete, so they have to shovel the concrete first, then get some soil from the outside forest, and then use fluorescent lamps to illuminate it.

The power generation situation is also a bit abnormal, it should be some problems with some external solar panels. Gene and Deguna plan to go out for maintenance starting tomorrow, and take materials to repair all the solar panels on the mountain.

"Hurry up after you have rested enough, the machines here are all running, which consumes too much electricity."

Li Chu now just wants to quickly change the core program of the base, and change it to the AI ​​he developed, and then find a way to implant some equipment management in the base into the AI ​​program, and use AI to take care of most things in the base.

The raw materials here can be managed by AI, because many equipment have smart chips, but only the old-fashioned smart processing system. Now all they need to do is connect everything, and the entire base can be fully automated immediately, otherwise the manpower and energy of the eight of them are limited.

The entire transformation will take at least two months, and it can only be completed with the coordination of AI machines. If there are dozens more people now, this process will be shortened to half a month. Unfortunately, there will be no one here.

There are very few people who know the location of this base, no more than 20 people, Gu Yi is one of them, and even the soldiers who served in it in the past don’t know where they are.

In fact, everyone originally wanted to bring some people here, but it was obviously unrealistic because most people were difficult to control, so they decided to wait until the base was built, go outside to bring a group of children back, and then educate them to teach them some knowledge as much as possible, and train them to become scientists, so that humans can continue.

The experience and cognition of adults have been fixed in all aspects. Gene and others have tried to gather some people, but unfortunately, in such an environment, they are powerless.

Especially those humans who have survived from the doomsday to the present have become extremely selfish in order to survive. Such selfishness will lead to many problems. Their selfishness is also normal in such an environment.

Since it is impossible to change, we can only start with children. If we cultivate them, humans can continue to survive.

They are all old, and they only have 20 to 30 years of life left, so now they must go all out.

After a while, Gene and Deguna continued to dismantle, and in the hall outside, Tang Rao, Witt, Rose, Ellie, and Gu Yi were driving engineering vehicles and destroying some concrete floors.

Now the entire concrete floor in the hall must be completely broken up to expose the soil layer below, and then the broken cement can be broken again by the furnace in the base for use.

The rumbling mechanical sound sounded, fortunately the engineering vehicles here were very complete. This base was originally going to be expanded and improved, but because of the construction of the Dragon Lighthouse, this base can only be temporarily abolished, because in the mountains, many things are not very convenient, but it would be a pity to demolish or blow it up.

So when the base was abolished more than ten years ago, only some important research equipment was taken away, leaving some less important items, and the base was still maintained in a state of water and electricity. Someone would come to inspect it once a year to maintain the base at a minimum.

Soon a core computer hub was disassembled, and Li Chu went over immediately, looking at the dense wires and some circuit panels. He looked carefully, then followed his memory to record and search on the computer, and then started taking pictures.

The physical structure of this system and the working conditions of all aspects must be understood clearly, so that the system can be transformed. The whole work is too complicated, and other people only understand part of the program, so Li Chu can only come alone.

"Now it's okay."

Deguna asked, and Li Chu nodded. It was already past 5 pm. Gene and Deguna planned to go directly to the warehouse, take out some solar panels, and start to install them. After they are ready, they will take the solar panels out tomorrow to restore the overall power of the base first.

They have checked the energy storage device and found no major problems. Now they are collecting as much electricity as possible and then transmitting it to some energy storage equipment to ensure sufficient electricity for the next few years.

After the sun disappears completely, they can only use chemicals to generate electricity, or use water resources to build a water cycle power plant. The entire transformation project is huge and time-consuming, but they must take all possible events into consideration when planning at the beginning.

At least plan the base for 100 years later. Only in this way can there be enough time for humans to survive completely.

After a while, Gene and Deguna came to a warehouse where solar panels were piled up. This new type of solar panel with only 1 square meter has excellent power generation capacity. Many panels have not been disassembled. After disassembly, many parts need to be assembled manually.

"So many."

Gene laughed awkwardly. The two could only start to check. First, they had to figure out the structure of this solar panel before they could start to assemble it. They had been to the top of the mountain yesterday. There was a giant elevator that went directly to the top of the mountain. It was more than 30 square meters and could be taken up by helicopter.

"What do you think about Witt?"

Deguna asked. Gene looked at Deguna and said after thinking for a moment.

"Maybe we are all different from before, you should feel the same way."

Looking at Deguna's body, it has become younger again. Everyone has tested their cells and didn't see any difference, but such changes exist in everyone's body. They don't feel tired after working for a long time. Eating is just to satisfy their taste.

There are fewer and fewer things to eat, Gene said with a smile.

"Maybe we were already dead when we fell."

Deguna sighed and looked at her hands. Her skin has become more and more delicate, and many old problems in her body have disappeared. Her long-term military career has caused her legs to suffer from serious muscle damage. Deguna often endures it, but now such pain has disappeared.

"No matter what the change is, it's a good thing for us in general."

After a while, Ellie ran over.

"It's time to eat."

Gene and Deguna were assembling solar panels. After they got up, they returned to the hall. Nearly one-third of the ground in the hall had been crushed. Tomorrow, they will continue to crush it, clean up the entire ground, and then move these helicopters to another room for parking.

Today is another rich canned food, with meat, fruit, and wine.

"Are we eating a little extravagant?"

Gu Yi said with a smile, and everyone raised their glasses of wine. Li Chu sat on the recliner tiredly, he felt too tired.

"What do you think is the situation outside?"

Tang Rao muttered, and Deguna said.

"When we reached the top of the mountain yesterday, we made observations, and the speed of cloud cover is getting faster and faster."

The situation is still getting worse, and after the deterioration, people can only move towards places where there is still sunshine and mountains and forests, so that they can survive.

"By the way, tomorrow we have to find a way to put the helicopter in the warehouse. If not, we can only dismantle the helicopter first."

Rose muttered, it was actually a pity to dismantle the helicopter. After all, the use of helicopters in the future is very large, and the most troublesome thing is that many helicopters will have problems if they continue to be placed like this, but if they want to take off, it will waste a lot of gasoline.

"Dismantle it."

Deguna said, everyone nodded, many equipment on the helicopter can be used, dismantling it is best for the base as a whole.

"Let's continue working after we finish eating."

After saying that, Witt took a big gulp of wine.

"You haven't fully recovered yet, drink less."

Li Chu reminded him, and Witt laughed.

"I don't know why, but my body is so good now. I feel like I can do anything without sleeping for days and nights."

.........

At 7 o'clock in the evening, the sun set at the end of the grassland. Allen sat quietly on a chair, surrounded by people. Today, many people came from the highway, nearly 200 people, all of whom fled all the way. The situation in the city below was already extremely bad.

And something happened today that made Allen very angry. What he was worried about happened, and so many people around him seemed extremely angry, and there was a woman crying.

In front of him were several men kneeling on the ground. Although they were not Allen's confidants, they were also better fighters in their group. Last night, they took advantage of the night to pull a woman to the lawn far away from the camp.

Such things did not ferment until the sun was about to set. The woman's husband brought many people to kill two people, leaving 4 people. Allen knew very well that no matter how to deal with the matter now, there would be no perfect solution.

Several confidants also persuaded Allen to drive away the people who killed them, but Allen did not agree. Now people's hearts are scattered, and doing so will only deepen the anger in many people's hearts.

And if you execute your own people, the people on your side will be the same.

If this matter is not handled well, the situation will become very serious. Although many people are silent now, it does not mean that they will remain silent in the future.

"How do you think this matter should be resolved?"

Allen stood up and shouted, and for a moment the crowd was furious, saying that these bastards should be killed.

Allen had known for a long time that this was indeed the result. The men behind him raised their guns, and the noisy crowd calmed down for a while. Allen did not want to use this method.

This kind of thing was actually very common in the cities below and all the way here, but now it is urgent to establish a stable order.

"That's good. Both sides will take a step back. Taking advantage of this incident, I hope to announce a few laws to everyone. Anyone who violates them will need to be punished. In serious cases, they will be expelled or shot directly."

Allen said, and the woman's husband roared angrily.

Immediately, the men around Allen went over and held him down.

"We are not happy to see something like this happen, but you can come to us and tell us what happened. There is no need to directly kill people."

Allen soon gave a solution. The four people were not allowed to set foot on the grassland and could only live in the defense facility at the end of the road. The man who killed the person had to unconditionally help other people who owned farmland to work. The land he cultivated himself was invalid.

For a while, many people protested angrily. Allen listened to them quietly, then raised his pistol and fired a shot into the sky.

The crowd calmed down again.

"Tomorrow I will officially promulgate the law and set up an incident handling committee. Not only our people, I will also select people from you to join the committee. If there are any problems in the future, private fights are not allowed and they must be passed. The committee will deal with it.”

The crowd began to disperse. Although many people were still dissatisfied, they could only do this now. After a while, many people began to go back to where they lived, and Jade came over.

"I think this is best."

Allen smiled and shook his head.

"It's just temporary. If this committee can't stabilize everything, this place will collapse."

Allen had actually thought about it for a long time. It was impossible to build a stable base and conflicts would definitely break out. He now understood why the eight scientists chose to leave directly.

Now the planting area has produced a lot of food. However, as long as the food production reaches a certain amount and it is still unable to integrate everything, Allen plans to only build a small base with a relatively small number of people and isolate everyone else. Outside.
