Across Deep Space: Four Men and a Play

Xia Jiu dreamed that Mr. Chu had mentioned the main topic and smiled slightly, saying, "If you want it, this thing is for you."

"But...this time, I don't want money, and I don't want a mermaid."

"I want to exchange two conditions in the name of the official."

Xia Jiumeng said this under Mr. Chu's increasingly sharp gaze.

"Conditions, what conditions?"

"Don't worry, I'm different from those people. I have my own principles."

"It wouldn't be too much to ask."

Mr. Chu looked serious. On one side was the ship he had been coveting, and on the other side were the official conditions involved. He was finding it difficult to make a decision on either side.

The official power is in jeopardy. If he makes a mistake, there will be no recovery. He doesn't know what conditions Xia Jiumeng will put forward. What if...

Xia Jiumeng looked at Old Chu, who had a normal expression but was struggling internally, and smiled, "Grandpa Chu, you can take your time to think about it. There's no rush. It's still early. Are you interested in going into the ship and taking a look?"

The words "Grandpa Chu" made Old Chu's mind change a little.

He knew she was trying to build connections.

But he had to consider the official position and the overall situation. Even if Xia Jiumeng was a junior he favored, he could not make a rash decision.

But she said it would be good to take a look.

He laughed heartily and said, "Okay, let an old man like me enjoy this good thing."

Old Liu and others also laughed.

"Of course, please." Xia Jiumeng led them into the open hatch and walked straight to the control room.

After walking through the passage and entering the elevator, Mr. Liu looked at the various marks on the ship's guidance map with some curiosity.

"Miss Xia, what is this....engine room used for?"

What? He could understand rest area, training area, parking area, weapons area, energy area, and medical area, but what did this mechanical area mean?

Working in mechanics?

"That's the area where the robots charge and rest." Xia Jiumeng explained, "The ship is huge. In addition to being able to carry personnel, it also requires many robots to work together."

"Like hygiene, energy supplements, and simple daily maintenance."

"Robot?" Old Liu imagined many small balls similar to Otto flying around in the ship.

Uh, that scene...

"Well, the basic equipment of the ship is 20 C-class robots, which can execute simple commands."

Xia Jiumeng looked at Old Liu's expression and instantly understood. It seemed that the robots in this world were all small and medium-sized, and most of them were like Otto. They seemed flexible but were still a little inconvenient.

"Why don't I take you to see it."

After getting their consent, Xia Jiumeng pressed the key for level 2.

I had just entered but hadn't pressed the floor button yet, so the elevator hadn't started.

The elevator slowly moved upwards, and when the door opened again, it had reached the second floor. Unlike the first floor with its wide passages, the second floor was a large hall with different passages in all directions. On the left side of the middle was a rest area with a relaxing atmosphere, and in the middle was a huge electronic screen, but it was closed at the moment.

"The spaceship hasn't started yet, so it's a bit deserted."

Xia Jiumeng said as she led them to the passage on the far left.

[Identification successful, welcome Captain Xia.]

After passing the system verification, the white metal door slowly opened to both sides, revealing a bright and spacious passage full of technology, with light blue light flowing on the walls on both sides.

Old Liu looked at it curiously and couldn't help but touch it. It felt cool and metallic.

Xia Jiumeng: "That's an energy transmission line. It's not dangerous. You can touch it at will."

He walked all the way to the door of the mechanical room and stopped.

After verifying again, the moment the door opened, Mr. Chu and the others widened their eyes.

"this...."

Seeing many people in front of them standing against the wall with their eyes closed, they were a little shocked for a moment.

"Uh, don't be nervous. They are bionic robots, not humans..." Xia Jiumeng explained while looking at their strange eyes.

Seeing that they still didn't believe it, Xia Jiumeng walked to the nearest male robot.

The robot in front of him had short blond hair and deep, three-dimensional features. He stood quietly in a dark purple fleet uniform.

Xia Jiumeng tapped the skin behind his ear, and the next second his eyelids moved slightly and he opened his eyes.

Looking at Xia Jiumeng in front of him, his blue eyes turned slightly, and at the same time, Xia Jiumeng's information appeared in his system.

"Thank you for waking me up, Captain Xia. How can I help you?" The clear voice, with ups and downs in the words, sounded like a real person.

"Scratch your wrist, I need to see your internal circuits." Xia Jiumeng said.

"Ok."

The man nodded, raised his right wrist, and his left index finger turned into a sharp knife and slashed at his wrist without hesitation. White viscous liquid instantly gushed out, and at the same time, the flesh-colored bionic skin turned outward. After waiting for the liquid to decrease, a silver metal skeleton and colorful wires appeared inside.

Xia Jiumeng asked the man to hand his arm to Mr. Chu and the others for inspection, and then asked the man to repair it.

"It's actually a robot, but...why does it look just like a real person..."

Mr. Chu was very surprised. It is not difficult to make a robot, but he has never seen a robot that can be made to look like a real person.

Even the robots of Ever Group cannot achieve this level.

"That's bionic skin, made of a special synthetic material. The white liquid is a flowing electro-dimensional elemental liquid that can effectively maintain the service life of the circuits and mechanical skeleton."

After hearing this, Mr. Chu wanted this ship even more.

Xia Jiumeng reached out and pressed the electronic screen beside her, and soon all the other robots were awakened.

"Just carry out your daily duties."

"Yes, Captain."

After receiving the order, the robots nodded and walked out of the mechanical room in an orderly manner. They would even move sideways to avoid Mr. Chu and others when passing by.

"What are they going to do?"

“Turn on the equipment, tidy up, clean up, etc…”

"Let me take you to the control room. There's more to see there."

Xia Jiumeng said this as she led them towards the elevator again.

Soon they reached the highest point of the ship, which was also the command and control room of the entire ship.

[Verification passed, welcome back Captain Xia, looking forward to a new journey with you. ]

The metal door opened, revealing a spacious room.

In the middle is a wide seat with many floating screens, on both sides are square platforms with various operating tables, and in front is a huge transparent glass, from which you can see the entire apron scene, which shows how tall this ship is.

Just as they were observing, the entire ship suddenly shook and they became alert in an instant.

"Don't worry, this is the ship's equipment turning on."

Xia Jiumeng comforted her, and the moment she finished her words, many data panels appeared on the originally transparent glass.

At the same time, a voice system announcement appeared throughout the room.

【Energy control is on.】

【Gravity adjustment is enabled.】

【Basic energy supply has been turned on】

.....

After dozens of reports, even though Mr. Chu and his friends were knowledgeable and experienced, they were a little confused at this moment.

They knew this ship was special, but they didn't expect it to be this special?!

This is even more awesome than anything in science fiction movies!

If they have this ship, they will be 100% sure to get out of their current predicament and even gain a strong voice. This is of irreplaceable importance for them to regain power and reorganize the current chaotic China!

Xia Jiumeng saw the anxiety in Mr. Chu's eyes, but didn't say anything. She just smiled and said, "Why don't we go up and take a look?"

"We can chat by the way."

"can!"

Mr. Chu nodded vigorously. "Let's talk! We must have a good chat!"

He is willing to pay any price to get this ship as long as he can get it!

"Okay, everyone, stand up."

As he spoke, Xia Jiumeng activated the spacecraft's intelligent system, Kesha.

[Captain Xia, long time no see.] Kesha greeted politely.

"Long time no see, start the spaceship."

Kesha: [Okay, I've checked that the spacecraft has no operator. Do you need a robot to assist you?]

Xia Jiumeng looked at the empty control areas on both sides and nodded, "Let's retrieve them."

【OK, it has been retrieved for you.】

Soon, several bionic robots walked in, sat in the control area and began to operate them skillfully.

Old Chu and the others stared at them like children who had never seen the world.

Wow, they thought these robots could only do routine tasks, but they didn't expect them to be able to control ships?!

This is too.....

"Energy is in place, thrusters are ready." said the robot in the left control area.

"Kesha, please update the information database." Xia Jiumeng said as she authorized the base's network.

[Okay, please wait.] A progress bar appeared on the huge glass. Kesha was searching the network for information about this galaxy and then sorting it out.

Of course, it is just the control system of the ship. It only needs to read information related to the planet and galaxy. Other information has nothing to do with it, so it naturally will not record or read it.
