Chapter 13: Killing two birds with one stone and framing the blame
The two robots Hinson and Donna drove the Explorer probe all the way north. They would pass through the Magical Zone from Lake Ontario and head towards the northern hemisphere of Titan. Looking out from the detector's nano observation window, Jupiter's halo is like a big straw hat, hanging diagonally above Titan. The beautiful orange sky is like the color of beeswax, perfectly combined with the brown-red sand dunes on the ground, like a super-large golden butter bread. Occasionally, a hurricane blows through the sky and the sky becomes dim. The scene at this time is very similar to the sandstorms on the earth. Near the Magic Island, the Explorer retracted its rotors, stretched out its multi-legged tentacles, and landed steadily in the rock pit. The red rock pit must have been burned. Its surface is like a huge molten pool left during welding, with circles of wavy lines from small to large. Not far in front of Discovery is a large sand dune, and beneath the dune is a small methane lake. The probe extends its metal drill rod and rotates rapidly on the surface of Titan, where the Explorer will extract rock samples from the surface of Titan. The two robots were chatting intimately together. Their language and thinking are almost the same as humans. It can also be said that they are a robot couple.
"Every time Donna carries out an arduous and dangerous mission, it's the two of us, but I'm very satisfied with your company. This time it's the two of us who go to the ground to explore. As we move towards the northern hemisphere of Titan, Danger is very likely to occur. We only have small laser cannons on the detector. If danger occurs, we can only ask for help from the battleship. But by the time the battleship arrives, we are probably gone." Hinson skillfully manipulated the detector and spoke. self-mumbling.
After pointing the spectrometer at the rock pit where the rock samples had just been taken, Donna said: "We are sent to perform difficult tasks every time because we are robots. Human beings have never considered how it feels to be our high-level intelligent robots. . When facing threats, we will also have fear and uneasiness. We have the same complex emotions as humans, but from this point on, humans will not consider it for us. You are a sunny boy, you should have more The demeanor of a gentleman, not an everyday mother-in-law. I want to ask you a question, will you protect me when there is danger?"
"Of course I will. Protecting you is what I am most happy to do, but I don't think there is any danger happening nearby. Although we have walked all the way, we have seen many traces left by humans. But it seems that it must have been a long time. It happened in the past, I guess there shouldn’t be spaceships from other planets near our detector.”
"Hinson, I don't think like you do. Maybe spaceships from other planets are hiding behind the dunes in front of us at this time, preparing to ambush us. You always use the thinking of primitive robots to see the problem, but you cannot use normal human wisdom to do it. Things are always rough. When we take samples from rocks, strong vibration waves will be emitted, which will most likely attract alien spacecraft. If we are discovered by them, the consequences will be serious. If the alien spacecraft Launching an attack on us would be difficult to resist with the laser cannons on our detectors. Even if a distress signal is sent to the battleship, it will take a certain amount of time for the battleship to arrive. During this period, we are in danger!"
"Xinsen, look quickly. There seem to be traces of spacecraft taking off and landing on the sand dunes in front of us, and they seem to have just been formed."
"Oh, there are indeed traces of the takeoff and landing of the spacecraft. It looks like it just landed here. It seems that we have to be more careful and don't throw our lives here. I will report to the battleship immediately." Xinsen nervously told Xieying The battleship sent out a set of distress signals requesting support.
The screen of the Evil Shadow Battleship flashed with a dazzling red light for an instant, a long string of signals requesting support appeared on the screen, and the communication system was quickly connected.
"Captain Evil Shadow, the Explorer is reporting to you. We have found traces of an alien spacecraft landing in the magical area. The detector is currently in a very dangerous situation. Captain, please provide immediate support." After Hinson's avatar appeared on the display screen , reporting to the Evil Shadow Captain in its buzzing electronic language.
"The Explorer immediately entered combat mode and awaited support." After giving the order to the Explorer, Captain Evil Shadow immediately directed Donne, Clerk, and Rackham to start the warships and fly towards the coordinates of the Explorer.
"My captain, do you think a war will happen? I think these two robots must have heat in their brains and a short circuit on the circuit board. How can they predict a potentially dangerous state? These two robots cannot They are lying! They felt the danger while searching forward, so they deliberately deceived us. Apart from us, there can be no other aliens on Titan. At present, there can only be Earth. People exist, but they are not scary to us." Professor Wodu looked disapproving.
"My professor, have you considered that the detector we are currently in danger is not our battleship. The detector only carries conventional laser cannons and cannot fight against the opponent's spacecraft at all, but once we After losing the detector during the confrontation with the opponent, there is no point in our continued stay on Titan, which means that the operation has been declared a failure. This makes it impossible for me to report to Caffey after returning to Proxima Centauri C. The commander of the force army told us. Don’t think of the people on earth too simply. They also have complex factions. Even if there are legions that can coexist peacefully with us and explore the universe together, there will inevitably be legions that are hostile to us. Chairman Goth’s immigration policy , may not be effective for all planets and all people." Captain Evil Shadow had a premonition that danger was about to happen, and he kept urging several astronauts to increase the flight speed of the battleship.
