Chapter 1146 - 324: Investigation
After Chen Ming focused his attention on the star system of the Mechanical Race.
He immediately confirmed the location of the Phase Giant Beast through the reconnaissance fleet and bypassed it.
Although his actions were clearly observed by the privileged reconnaissance fleet of the nearby legion, no one said anything.
Thus, Chen Ming’s fleet bypassed to another severely devastated area on the planet.
This was most likely where the Phase Giant Beast first attacked and rampaged.
And when the reconnaissance fleet previously surveyed the planetary environment, circling the planet.
Chen Ming saw many ruins of Mechanical Race buildings in this area.
Chen Ming had seen the cities of the Mechanical Race before.
Knowing the general function of many Mechanical Race structures, he was aware that this ruin had something he needed.
Although there were also some buildings Chen Ming had never seen before and didn’t know their purpose.
But the buildings Chen Ming hadn’t seen in the previous Mechanical Race city must be uncommon, certainly with their own uniqueness, which made them even more worth checking out.
Chen Ming’s Stardust Level quickly arrived directly above the target location he had identified.
On this Stardust Level, Chen Ming activated the spiritual energy to manufacture a shuttle boat and a robot.
The shuttle boat was put together casually, as long as it could help him safely reach the planet.
But the design of the robot was carefully considered by Chen Ming.
He modeled it after the power armor-based robot type he used when causing trouble at headquarters, with an additional Dusk core installed.
This form, which could be called a mechanical armor body, was compact and easy to maneuver.
Moreover, Chen Ming found manipulating a humanoid mechanical body more comfortable than other shapes and sufficient to accomplish what he intended to do next.
After transferring his primary consciousness to this robot.
Chen Ming controlled the robot to board the shuttle boat, dashing straight down to the planet.
After encountering some extremely sparse and scattered anti-air fire, Chen Ming’s shuttle boat reached the air above the destination.
Looking around, it was all remnants of metal structures and countless fragments of Mechanical Race beings crushed to pieces.
This place should have been a highly developed district of Mechanical Race buildings, now reduced to a ruin.
However, ruins or not, as long as it’s mechanical, Chen Ming’s spiritual energy can restore it.
Because of this, Chen Ming had carefully selected this location.
Here.
Was a Nanorobot production factory of the Mechanical Race.
There are three crucial components in the body of a Mechanical Race individual.
Sub-core, core chip, and nanorobots.
The basic sub-core and core chip ensure the operation of the Mechanical Race individuals; their manufacture is no longer a problem for Chen Ming
So for the current Chen Ming, the key lies in the nanorobots.
These are crucial for ensuring the self-maintenance during battle for the Mechanical Race, as well as their endurance in combat.
They are also considered one of the most technically sophisticated devices on the Mechanical Race’s body.
Furthermore, they also limit the production speed of the Mechanical Race by Chen Ming.
Chen Ming currently has only one Nanorobot production facility.
It was found in the past from a small autonomous Mechanical Race city and has been sent by Chen Ming to his new Mechanical Race colony.
The limited number of Nanorobot production devices restricts the production speed of a fully functional Mechanical Race.
With just one device, it can only satisfy the production of city-level Mechanical Race individual numbers.
If more is desired, either the capabilities of the Mechanical Race individuals must be limited to reduce their maintenance needs.
Or simply ignore it, allowing robots with missing endurance and maintenance functions to be produced.
Chen Ming does not want to choose either; he wants complete Mechanical Race individuals.
So when he discovered this building in space and had a chance to come over, he came here immediately.
His goal was to capture the Nanorobot manufacturing equipment here.
He wanted his robots to be more "industrialized," allowing the expansion efficiency of his Mechanical Race to catch up with the reproductive rate of the Insect Race.
Although this may sound a bit like wishful thinking.
The Insect Queen had long been able to convert planets into her nutrients, convert them into Insect Nests, and is currently undergoing a critical evolution.
Meanwhile, the Mechanical Race Chen Ming had covered only the scope of a small human colonial city.
The gap is not just a tiny bit.
But Chen Ming always believed that the industrial metal tide could compete with the infinite reproduction of the Insect Race.
Just that the scale hasn’t been achieved yet, so the efficiency is slower, but once the scale is achieved, results will eventually be seen.
This has to start from the most basic equipment and build up industrialization step by step.
The shuttle boat landed on the Mechanical Race’s planet.
Chen Ming immediately controlled the mechanical armor body to crash open the shuttle boat’s hatch.
Immediately, a fierce barrage of Mechanical Race firepower enveloped him.
This was caused by a small number of Mechanical Race individuals not affected by the Phase Giant Beast’s attack, who had found the exact landing location of Chen Ming during the shuttle boat’s landing amidst the ruins.
Although it’s a small number, it was small compared to before the Mechanical Race city was destroyed.
A small part of the city, put in front of an individual, is already an unaccommodatable part.
