Time travel to become the guardian AI of a lost civilization

Chapter 14 Being Targeted
"Very good, no one was injured or injured, and the spaceship is in my hands. If I can't leave this planet, it's up to you."

Li Wenyuan in the virtual world was very happy. Under his operation, these alien visitors successfully escaped from the spacecraft and had to make an emergency landing on the surface.

It's not about the technology of the spaceship. After scanning, the scientific research division believes that this spaceship is not necessary to keep, but it can provide a new concept of ship type.

As a result, there is an additional technology in the technology tree that has been developed: the scientific research ship.

In order to prevent the possible "crash signal" after the crash of the spacecraft, the country that attracted these aliens sent people to search for their traces.

After taking full control of the spacecraft, he will arrange the spacecraft to travel to different galaxies to create the illusion that "everything is normal on the spacecraft" until the fuel is exhausted.

As for why the lives of these aliens were left behind...

"After all, I am not a murderer. As long as there is no threat to me and the coordinates here are not exposed, it is not impossible to save their lives, but of course it is not free..."

Li Wenyuan's eyes were bright, and he controlled the synthetic man to follow the aliens from a distance, as if he wanted to discover something by following them.

"The information on the spacecraft shows that this group of people is an archaeological team, led by a professor with several students, trying to excavate ancient ruins on planets with traces of civilization..."

"I really lack the role of an expert here, and I can't systematically and efficiently excavate a large number of ruins on the planet. If this group of people really has that ability, then it is not impossible to hire them to work for me..."

There are a lot of damaged facilities and lost relics on this planet, and those damaged facilities are okay, and they are marked in the system.

But those lost relics Li Wenyuan had no choice at all. He was not a professional in archaeology, and the database did not tell him how to reasonably excavate those relics.

He tried to control a few synthetic humans to do violent excavation, but he was instantly killed by a self-defense device that even he couldn't understand, and he had to stop the excavation work.

But now with this group of people, even if they are sparsely staffed, the problem of insufficient archaeological manpower can be made up for if there are synthetic people on the side to assist them.

And Li Wenyuan didn't have many other things, but he synthesized a lot of people.

"But we have to see if they are just people trying to catch fame... If I remember correctly, there is a ruins nearby. If they can really find something, then it's not a bad idea to meet them..."

After thinking, Li Wenyuan turned his attention to himself.

After the full operation of the industrial division, the strengthening alloy needed to repair the "dimension manufacturing machine" has been produced. For this reason, he does not know how many days of rummaging through garbage to gather enough raw materials.

And Lilian did not lose the output of Zelo. Since that day, she has taken some time to pray devoutly every day.

Li Wenyuan also secretly observed Lilian's prayers, and found that she was really just kneeling on the ground, clasping her hands together, meditating inexplicable words such as God, salvation, end, etc. in her heart.

Then Zelo was diffused into the surrounding air by her breathing.

X-ray scans of the synth showed that Zello appeared directly in Lilian's body, rather than being produced from an organ.

Li Wenyuan was shocked by this subversion of physics cognition at first, but he soon stopped caring about it.

He himself has traveled through time, is there anything more miraculous than this?
Moreover, Lilian would praise "Lord Guardian" every time she prayed, which gave Li Wenyuan rare spiritual comfort after work.

Although his body is already a program, his consciousness is still not much different from that of humans.

Before, he was so busy with many chores that he didn't have time to think, but when he calmed down occasionally, he would inevitably feel a little lonely.

Now with the mascot Lilian as his companion, he feels pretty good.

"Okay, I have to command the synthetic man to move the bricks... After the repair of the 'dimensional manufacturing machine' is completed, the resources will be abundant, and the 'construction robot' on the technology tree can also be put into production!"

"Everyone be active! The planet needs you! Only when the planet is better can you have a better working environment and create more value!"

Facing the empty virtual space, Li Wenyuan murmured inspirational words like chicken soup for the soul, and then continued to control a large number of synthesizers, and began to transport the reinforced alloy to the "dimension manufacturing machine" that needed to be repaired.

Just as he controlled the synthetic man to start working in full swing, the professor led his four students in an artificial forest, and they were trekking through it.

Because they entered the escape pod too hastily and lost control of the spacecraft, they failed to bring a lot of equipment with them.

And now, their goal has long since changed from "discovering ancient ruins" to "finding a way to leave".

After all, no one expected such an accident to happen.

While walking, Cowper suddenly asked:
"...Professor, what do you think our ship is? Has it been hacked?"

His question is also the doubt of everyone.

No one would believe that an artificial intelligence that was fine one minute, suddenly lost its response for no reason the next moment.
As Cowper said, everyone thought it was a hack.

"Your idea is not unreasonable, but... what is the reason? What is the source? We need a complete chain to form a possible result. What is your idea?" The professor said while pushing aside the bushes in front of him.

Cowper thought for a moment, and then expressed his opinion:

"We conducted a rough scan before approaching the planet. Not to mention that the accuracy rate is 100%, but at least we confirmed that there are no traces of a large number of living beings still active."

"There are a lot of space junk and abandoned space stations floating in this galaxy, and there are also relic buildings visible to the naked eye on the surface, indicating that they were once an interstellar civilization, but they have declined for some reason."

"According to past experience, the relics of these civilizations usually have some degree of self-defense means, even after millions of years, they can remain a threat."

"I think our ship has been indiscriminately electronically hacked."

The marching professor nodded and said: "Indeed, there may be an uncontrolled electronic network on this planet, and our spaceship will be attacked as soon as it gets close to its range of influence."

"But now a more serious problem is coming. The protection level of my scientific research ship is second to none even among adventurers, but in fact we didn't receive any alarms, and the spaceship has lost control."

"There is generally only one possibility in this situation, and that is that the opponent's technological level is too much higher than ours, and they can easily crack the spaceship's protection."

"I mean, do you understand?"

The professor's words made everyone fall into silence. After a while, the fat man in the team said with difficulty:

"Meaning that the danger we face...could be very dire?"

The professor nodded expressionlessly and said: "This is a possibility. The more advanced the technology, the more things that are beyond our understanding. Any robot pet that is out of control here may tear us all apart." into pieces. But..."

"—But this also means that we may have extremely rich harvests, which may be lost technologies, rare resources, or even powerful lost warships." Cowper took the professor's words and attracted praise gaze.

The young man in the team who had been at odds with Cooper shouted in surprise: "Are you crazy? Are you going to touch those horrible ruins? Shouldn't we find a way to leave first?"

"I think the way to leave is in those ruins!" Cowper's eyes were burning with persistence, as if nothing could stop his thoughts.

"There are so many relics on this planet, it is impossible not to have what we need. As long as we find the right way to enter, we will be able to leave here sooner or later!"

"You are crazy! I think you are for your father's illusory ideals! I will never enter those ruins!"

Seeing that the two were about to start arguing again, the professor stepped forward in time.

"Okay, be quiet! Whether it's bypassing the ruins or exploring the ruins, today's time is not enough! We have to hurry up and find a place to camp!"

Once again the team fell silent.At this time, the fat man at the back suddenly felt cold, as if he was being followed by something.

But looking back, he was frightened and froze in place.

In the gap of the forest, a huge black figure slowly raised its body, its bright red eyes fixed on the fat man, as if seeing a piece of delicious fat.
