Five instructors led more than forty students to search for traces of Insect n outside the city.
They taught them how to act as they walked.
Su Xiaocai turned off the microphone, "Wisdom 03, initiate scan mode and record my body data. If there are traces of Insect n, let know."
"Okay, master." After receiving the task, Wisdom 03 curiously asked, "Master, why don’t you ask Wisdom 01 to help you? It is the expert in this area."
Wisdom 01, Wisdom 02, and Wisdom 03 are all artificial intelligence and are aware of each other’s existence.
However, there is a significant difference in the areas they manage.
Su Xiaocai has never used Wisdom 01 so far, and Wisdom 03 is very curious about where it went.
"It, huh! Can’t use it for now. If used, this cha might be scrapped; this cha can’t handle its recklessness."
Recklessness?
Wisdom 03 couldn’t understand.
In its thinking, Wisdom 01 should be the leader, setting a good example.
"You will see it eventually. My dear 03, just help scan for now."
"Okay." Wisdom 03 is temporarily stored in a spherical form similar to Wisdom 02.
Once it had a physical form, it behaved more lively and nimbly, gradually showing tendencies akin to Xiao Wanzi.
Su Xiaocai discreetly tossed out dozens of thumb-sized Detection Balls.
The Detection Balls, controlled by Wisdom 03, rolled off in all directions; being small in size, they could roll through any terrain.
The detection results were soon fed back to Wisdom 03.
A 3D map popped up, showing Su Xiaocai the distribution locations of the Insect n.
Within a ten-kiloter radius, there were ten spots hiding Insect n.
After exploring the way, the Detection Balls rolled randomly again, probing wherever they ended up. They are disposable, cannot be retrieved, and are not cheap, but their map detail detection capability definitely outperforms the competition by tens of tis.
Wisdom 03: "They are covered with a thin film that isolates the current detectors.
Among them, two or three do not have this film. But the places they are located hide thousands of Insect n."
It’s evidently a trap set by the Insect n.
Su Xiaocai’s heart sank, it was too dense, unusually abundant.
Within a ten-kiloter radius, no less than three thousand.
The instructors were teaching students how to read the detectors, and their detectors tracked traces of Insect n seven kiloters away.
The students excitedly asked, "Can we go there now?"
"Do you rember what we said? We can’t detect where the Insect Mother is," the instructor asked them. "Do you know what this ans?"
Jun Ya’s students quickly responded, "It ans our detectors are not perfect. Since we can’t detect it, it indicates the detector’s results may be incorrect."
The instructor praised, "That’s right, detectors are not omnipotent. Insect n evolve too fast. Even if the Mother is not on Huangyang Star, we must be careful of the concealed Insect n."
Jun Ya’s student smiled proudly, but unfortunately, no one in the cha cabin could see.
Jun Hui’s Captain You and Captain Feng lanted, regretting being a step late.
As for the students from Military Training, they had no awareness of vying for excellence in this aspect. Wu Feiyang yawned, just wanting to slay Insect n quickly and dashingly display himself in front of Su Xiaocai.
"Recently, we’ve lost two soldiers. In this operation, caution is the priority. Pay attention to the surroundings when advancing."
"Yes."
After walking about five hundred ters, the instructor stopped, "Look at these tracks here, very fresh."
There’s a path for Insect n walking, and the instructor said it was fresh because there was just a sandstorm, leaving fine sand all over the dry ground.
The fine sand flowed underground, taken away partly by the fierce wind, nature’s traces were obvious.
Yet, where the Insect n had walked was different.
Only the claws of Insect n could scrape out irregular paths on such solid ground.
"There are various kinds of Insect n. Being cautious won’t lead to unexpected trouble." The five leading instructors spread out in four directions, using another instrunt to probe the ground; an invisible wave spread across the ground, and soon, the transmitted images returned without signs of life.
Su Xiaocai looked at the images sent back by Wisdom 03’s detection; beneath her cha’s feet were thirteen Insect n with stone shells lurking in the soil.
"How many years has it been since you last replaced your detectors?" Su Xiaocai asked.
"They were just replaced two years ago," the instructor replied while testing, "have you discovered sothing?"
Similar detectors more or less.
Dealing with evolving and mutating Insect n, indeed requires various types.
Like Wisdom 03’s current body, it integrates several kinds of detectors, capable of complex data processing instrunts, but such multi-functional detectors seem only manageable for artificial intelligence.
