Chapter 572 - Unexpected Wealth (1/2)

In the empty and cold room, the brain’s voice echoed for a long time. A strange picture once again appeared on the projection screen. This wasn’t a photo but rather, an image composed of simple 3D animations.
A human was standing still, and there were ten metal-made robots the height of an average person in front of him. There were various weapons in their hands, forming a small combat team that, with coordination, could create powerful crossfire.
Fighting robots — this kind of expendable army had been brought up by scientists and various military experts more than just once.
However, there was an extremely serious problem: if these fighting robots were not given a heightened level of artificial intelligence, their battles would be very rigid with not much actual threat. They could only be targets on a battlefield, an endless waste of materials and resources.
According to the calculations of scientists from various continents, if given heightened artificial intelligence, it wasn’t impossible for fighting robots to have the logical thought processes of a true human being. Although the probability was negligible, the entirety of the Federation might be in danger even if there was just one of them. At the very least, this would cause much harm to the elemental energy, leading to a certain societal chaos.
The ten fighting robots in the projection were flexible and had incredibly accurate judgments. The lethality posed by them was even more shocking. It was as if they had the ability to think independently!
In the projection, strips of yellow light protruded from the human brain. They connected individually onto the positions of each fighting robot’s head.
“These yellow lights don’t really exist.” The brain’s voice was filled with pride, “They are only labeled for you to understand better.”
Qin Fen began to understand what the so-called mental power was. It was for when the brain waves have reached a certain strength where it could control more than just one fighting robot that otherwise wouldn’t be much useful.
By the same theory, if the mental power was strengthened to an even higher level, wouldn’t it mean that it could also control other things? For example, having the ability to control ten combat aircraft in aero combat while sitting in a cosmic warship? Or even the ability to control a small formation of cosmic warships? They could actually achieve a truly unified command in the military world that had previously only stayed in theory!
Qin Fen didn’t know if the so-called mental power mentioned by the brain could be so strong, but if it really could reach that level, humans would definitely have a bigger advantage in the battle against the Queen Bee in her world.
“Of course, this is not the strongest form of mental power.” The brain wasn’t patient in explaining, “In short, mental power far exceeds your imagination. Martial artists make themselves stronger by exercising true energy. Scientists don’t have as much time as martial artists to cultivate true energy. At the same time, it is not the case that any scientist would be a martial dao genius. Scientists who have spent long hours using their brains effectively would ultimately walk toward mental power! As long as they have strong mental power, I believe that in the future! The mental power of scientists can also become a combat strength that is not inferior to martial artists.”
As Qin Fen looked at the various calculations on the projection screen he saw that there was even a situation in which a combat fighter was controlled as he had guessed previously.
“There are still many uses for mental energy, and it’s not just for fighting.” The brain’s tone that was originally becoming prouder and prouder became low all of the sudden, “Unfortunately, currently, this study has an incredible amount of defects and obstacles. Plus, having all of the knowledge gathered together is also a hindrance to the development of science.”
Qin Fen looked at the brain, “You want me to help you separate?”
“Correct!”
Qin Fen was very surprised. Even if this Founding Society wasn’t as prosperous as Zhang Hao’s Founding Society, they still had strong capabilities. There were many scientists out there in different continents, why take the difficult route?
“You know these two young men, right? Enzo Rota and Lin Liqiang…”
Qin Fen clicked his tongue. The reputations of these two friends were indeed great, even this brain mentioned them specifically. Could it be…
“Separation of knowledge is a very complicated matter. As we have merged together for a long time, the separated body of knowledge can no longer survive as a single being. They will need a host.”
A host? A new imaginary picture appeared in Qin Fen’s mind. The casually graceful Lin Liqiang had suddenly gotten megalencephaly; a well-proportioned handsome figure walked around with a huge head. Any beautiful woman would scream and escape by the sight of it.
I’d rather be an idiot with looks than to have such a horrible appearance! I don’t even want whatever wisdom!
