Main God Creation Rules

Page 55

Having failed once again, Lin Yi had no choice but to give up this futile attempt, letting Eve sink the "shark" that was trying to attack on the sea, while looking at the humanoid machine that had become tattered in the previous battle.

"Perhaps we should change our approach and start from the outside, not from the inside..."

After all, with limited technology, no matter how much internal enhancement is done, it can only reach this level. The knowledge about flesh-and-machine conversion obtained from Eve can at most give them a human appearance, but it is impossible to replicate a second Eve.

If the main attributes remain unchanged, the only way to strengthen an individual is to strengthen its "equipment".

In this regard, the virus that Lin Yi was most familiar with was ruled out first. Even Eve, who had transformed into a flesh-and-blood life form, couldn't be infected with a virus and mutate like humans, let alone these semi-finished products. In other words, the only way to strengthen them was through methods such as enhancing firepower components.

Lin Yi also has no shortage of weapon designs that can kill those huge iron beasts in the sea. Whether it is World Zero, World Four, or even World Six and Seven, there are plenty of them - blueprints for naval cannons or machine guns. However, the problem is how to put such heavy and huge weapons on a humanoid body the size of an ordinary human without affecting their movement too much.

In the realm of human science, this should fall into the category of "impossible".

"Maybe the ball is worth $3 and it's 9

With a sigh of relief, Lin Yi said with some regret.

Since obtaining the Main God, Lin Yi's actions have never been driven by immediate goals, but rather by long-term planning. Similarly, the creation of automatons with human-like forms is based on this idea. In Lin Yi's vision, once successful in this world, these automatons could serve as a strengthening branch of the Main God, allowing chosen reincarnators to mass-produce them, which would undoubtedly play a significant role in certain scientifically-minded worlds in the future.

Even if things don't go well, Lin Yi can still mass-produce these automated humanoids through the main god. In the future, once he locks onto some large hostile forces, he might not necessarily lose by simply overwhelming them with sheer numbers. Consuming human lives is a form of consumption, as is consuming resources. Not to mention, automated humanoids don't have thoughts of retreat like humans do.

Just as Lin Yi was about to give up on the humanoid design, a voice suddenly sounded in his mind.

[The current situation allows for the use of space-folding technology]

"Derivative technologies?"

【Subspace 逡侕灵八@物淋9拌VI玖】

Subspace: Also known as subspace according to different world rules, it allows for the implantation of a second space within a three-dimensional object.

Lin Yi was taken aback: "Like a storage bag?"

[Compliance rate: 77.14%]

"...I've never heard you mention such technology before."

[The relevant records were incomplete, but were repaired 23 minutes and 11 seconds ago by cracking the 'chip' data.]

"chip?"

Surprised, Lin Yi pulled out the dark chip from his pocket. He hadn't expected it to contain such knowledge, and incredibly, it hadn't become damaged or lost despite the chip being broken. After all, given the completeness of the previous diary entries, it wouldn't have been impossible to decipher a bunch of gibberish. Now it seemed that he had underestimated its value.

"Hmm, maybe we can try paying more attention."

I initially thought they were just a bunch of useless technologies, but it seems that the failed civilization did achieve some success. If we could collect more of those lost chips, maybe we could fill in the gaps in our information—after all, there were 30,000 of them. I just wonder how many will still be left after more than two hundred years.

----------segmentation----------

It's said to implant a second space inside a three-dimensional object, but in reality, it's far less convenient than Lin Yi imagined. Not to mention storage bags in the world of immortals and heroes, even a decent storage ring in the magical world would probably be several levels better in terms of technology.

"The spatial carrier itself must be stable enough, and the implantation process is irreversible. In other words, only one specific component can be implanted into a humanoid body; it cannot be repeated or modified..."

Considering that they would be facing those enormous iron beasts in the sea, Lin Yi did not hesitate for long: "Abandon speed and maximize firepower and defense."

Thus, a maritime unit that could only move at a maximum speed of 20 knots—equivalent to 36 km/h on land—was born. In stark contrast to its pitifully low speed was the equipment that Lin Yi had loaded onto it.

"The twin 106mm gun... although the technology is outdated, its advantages are low cost, easy maintenance and sufficient power."

Considering various factors, Lin Yi ultimately did not adopt modern equipment systems. Although theoretically, the destructive power of 21st-century shipborne weapons such as missiles is definitely stronger than that of 20th-century naval guns, the problem is that the consumption of a ballistic missile versus a cannon shell is vastly different when it comes to destroying the same iron beast.

Not to mention that Lin Yi wouldn't have the time or energy to replenish these surface-based automated humanoids with advanced weapons like missiles bit by bit. However, these crude naval cannons and the like could be directly recorded in the production chain through weapon concept embedding, so even if they were damaged or missing, they could be quickly replenished through the production chain.

"Installing only one type of ship concept might not be enough, but it's good enough to serve as an early test subject. Next up—the Main God."

【Command confirmed.】

"The scope is still within World Four. We will use a similar concept to filter people who have a strong yearning for 'card collection and development games', but we should be careful not to limit the selection to a specific area."

If one or two people go missing in a neighborhood, it can be covered up as an "accident." But if a dozen or so people go missing at the same time, anyone would notice something is wrong, and it will be a lot of trouble to deal with. Since World Zero has become a "location coordinate" that cannot be easily interfered with, World Four, which still maintains order, has become one of Lin Yi's bases to a certain extent. Unless absolutely necessary, it is better to maintain peace as much as possible, even if it is just an illusion that can be easily exposed.

Intelligent Conservation: Chapter 130 Unstable Elements

A person can change their entire life because of a single unintentional action.

For Ouyang Huang, there were probably no other words more suitable to describe his experience.

"Commander, in this sortie we killed a total of 15 Iron Beasts, including 9 basic Iron Beasts, 5 first-evolution Iron Beasts, and one Iron Beast that had undergone a second evolution."

"Oh, looks like we're almost out of the starting village... That wasn't easy!"

Looking at the various "spoils of war" displayed on the electronic warfare screen—mainly metal resources obtained from those iron beasts—Ouyang Huang had roughly figured out the uses of these resources after these days of exploration.

They can be used to create more androids, replenish ammunition, repair damage to androids during sorties, and expand the command center's android storage and production efficiency after a certain number are reached. If money is omnipotent in his original world, then these resources are simply an enhanced version of money!

"Commander, please issue the next instructions."

He was speaking the same words in the same voice he remembered, but Ouyang Huang felt something was off lately, whether it was his imagination or not. To the automaton in front of him: "HK416, do you like fighting?"

“This is my mission, Commander.”

There was neither hesitation, nor meaningless emotions such as sadness or helplessness, but rather a statement of the fact that was destined the moment it was created as a "humanoid": "Annihilate all the iron beasts on the ground and reclaim this land."

"That's true, but what happens after that? You always have things you want to do—or wishes you want to fulfill, right?"

"I'm sorry, Commander, HK416 doesn't understand what you're saying. Items don't need thoughts."

Staring blankly at HK416's departing figure after saluting, Ouyang Huang subconsciously clenched his fists. An idea began to take root in his heart: "HK416... and everyone in the command post, I will definitely make you change!"

Some people strive to give "props" thought, while others are dissatisfied with the fact that "props" have gained thought.

Radiation World No. 9, the central island of the ocean base.

Production line No. 2.

"Can't we use restrictive methods like Eve did to eliminate it?"

Facing the numerous circuit models projected onto the screen, Lin Yi made a final effort: "Even reducing some combat capabilities is acceptable."

[In systems where integration is impossible, the integration of weapon concepts inevitably includes autonomous consciousness, and autonomous consciousness necessarily contains an emotional component.]

"So, those automated humanoid robots used on the ground also pose a risk of generating subjective emotions?"

[With proper assessment, the host can mitigate the danger by periodically deleting internal data.]

"The problem is, if we really do that, we have to eliminate all the 'combat experience' that we've worked so hard to accumulate."

Rubbing his temples, Lin Yi regretted choosing this strategy. While it was good to obtain a large number of cheap consumable units in a short time, the problem was that the subsequent handling of them was quite troublesome.

“A prop is a prop; it doesn’t need emotions. When a prop develops feelings, there are only two possibilities: either it no longer belongs to the category of props, or it has lost its status as a prop.”

Clearly, Lin Yi started this project with the idea of ​​creating "props," but what if it ends up being about creating "non-props"?

So all that time and effort was wasted just to create a bunch of mechanical life forms that need to be carefully maintained...?

This might be taken for granted by those who have already become "commanders" and are on their way to becoming "admirals," but for Lin Yi, who opened this door with his own hands, it was an absolutely unacceptable choice.

Position determines attitude. From the perspective of those "commanders" and "admirals," they only need to manage their relationship with the automatons around them. They have no time or ability to deal with anything else.

However, Lin Yi needs to deal with the relationships between several worlds, hundreds of thousands of reincarnators, and countless plunderers and plundered. If all the resources were used to cultivate these mechanical life forms, from a personal point of view, it would undoubtedly be a happy and fulfilling life.

But what happens after that?

Waiting for an intruder similar to themselves, or even more powerful, to enter this world, tearing apart these facades of happiness before they feel regret and hatred?

Rather than waiting for this uncertain future, Lin Yi would rather make a more "rational" choice now, even if that rationality seems too cruel to some people...

"Set each android to have the highest level of access. Once it detects emotional fluctuations exceeding the limit, forcibly delete its internal data. All I need are tools, not 'humans' that have developed emotions!"

July 1, Radiation Calendar 501

With the arrival of "visitors" from another world, a once-vanished civilization begins to spread across this land once more. However, unlike before, this time they are not acting for long-term development, but for short-term plunder and destruction...

From the perspective of the humans who participated in this war against the surface monsters, it should have been a "just" war: helping the "humans" whose land had been taken away to eliminate the monsters occupying the surface and reclaim this beautiful world. However, from the perspective of the mutated creatures who have lived and thrived on this land for five hundred years, it was an outright invasion: their homes were burned, their kin were slaughtered, their resources were plundered... by a group of strangely-looking "monsters".

In this situation, it is meaningless to investigate which side is "just" and which side is "evil," because whether it is just or evil, in the end, only power itself can determine the outcome.

With the establishment of over three thousand "command centers" on the ground and over two thousand "garrison offices" in various sea areas, it was already obvious which side the scales of power were tilting towards. Just as the exploration of the surface and the sea was gradually getting on track, a report from a garrison office in the eastern sea area interrupted Lin Yi's preparations for spatial cutting.

"...Native humans?"

Intelligent Conservation: Chapter 131 Native World Inhabitants

Fei Zhouren was selected to enter this world three months ago. Unlike others who became army officers and were known on online forums as being prone to "accidental clashes," he became a glorious "shipboarder"—or simply admiral.

However, his luck was not as good as that of others of the same period. He was not assigned to a sea area where he could quickly eliminate iron beasts to earn merit points to exchange for high-level "ship girls" and "equipment", nor was he assigned to a sea area where he could not see a single iron beast for days and spend his days teasing the secretary ship and waiting to die. Instead, he was assigned to a rather boring sea area.

"Ah~ so boring~"

"Admiral, please complete today's routine report!"

"But there's nothing to report. Let me see... all we did was sink three destroyer-class ships and one light cruiser-class ship. Even if we reported it, we wouldn't get any credit."

"Admiral, I've said it many times already, those aren't called Abyssal Fleets!"

"That's called Ironblood?"

"That's the army—no, the army's enemy isn't the Ironblood!"

"Ah, that must be called Princess Deep Sea, that's wonderful, I also want to see Little Northern or something..."

"Phew, please stop harboring such meaningless fantasies, Admiral. Otherwise, I will have no choice but to report to the Governor-General's Office that your recent mental state is unsuitable for the position of Admiral and request a replacement!"

Upon hearing the threat from the secretary ship, the Filipinos could no longer maintain their nonchalant attitude. Although the chances of success were slim, no one could guarantee that there was no possibility of being "replaced." After all, according to the commanders and admirals on the forum, they all seemed to have been brought to this world by the same mysterious entity in an unknown way. And that mysterious entity often fit the image of the "Governor's Office," which was only known by name but never seen in person.

If they were really thrown back to their original world by that mysterious "Governor's Mansion" for such a reason, wouldn't the people of Feizhou be devastated? Although every commander and admiral has different past experiences and thoughts, everyone who comes to this world has love for these "girls".

"Okay, I understand. The report, right? I'll write it right away!"

"Phew... Honestly, I didn't mean to use this method to pressure the admiral, but these are tasks that the Governor's Office requires to be completed every day. If they aren't completed, things will go wrong."

"Oh no? How so?"

"Uh... I don't know."

"I don't know what to say!"

"I don't know, but something really bad is bound to happen!"

The Filipino was speechless at his secretary ship's illogical explanation. Just as he was about to resign himself to continuing to complete the report, a young girl suddenly entered the room.

"Reputation, is the expedition complete?"

"Yes."

The nimble-fingered girl saluted the nonchalant-looking Fizhou man, then said with a serious expression, "During our expedition, we discovered a small island with traces of human activity."

"Humans? Did some admiral just wander over there out of boredom?"

"I'm sorry, Admiral, but according to the Governor-General's orders, no admiral of any naval base can leave their assigned waters, so it couldn't have been the work of another admiral."

"Which ship girl got badly damaged and went up there to repair herself?"

"That's impossible too. Even if it's heavily damaged and sunk at sea, we can't stop on our way to carry out a mission."

Ignoring the admiral's angry yet slightly uneasy gaze, the girl named Renown spoke her speculation in a calm tone: "I found traces of human habitation and life up there. Although the possibility is very low, it cannot be ruled out that someone has settled there."

"That is to say..."

Upon hearing this news, even the people of Feizhou were somewhat excited: "Humans from this world?!"

----------segmentation----------

"A report from the naval base?"

[The report from Doll No. 095205 was relayed by the Naval Base 31 minutes and 14 seconds later.]

Ignoring the potential intelligence behind the chronological order, Lin Yi was more concerned with the content of the report.

“Native humans… I thought they were all extinct.”

This speculation is not without reason. After all, according to the "world activity intensity" classification of the main god, it is hard for Lin Yi not to connect it with the settings of "Alaya" and "Gaia". The elimination and extermination of invaders after being invaded by other worlds are also two conceptual existences.

However, in this world, which the main god determined to be of medium activity level, it was unexpectedly not targeted at all. Lin Yi naturally guessed that this was because the carrier of "Alaya"—humanity on Earth—had become extinct, and the carrier of "Gaia"—Earth's consciousness—had encountered some problems.

Subsequent explorations revealed that the nuclear explosion and the long period of radiation indirectly corroborated this conjecture. After all, "Alaya" could not possibly exist after the extinction of humanity, and two hundred years of darkness caused by nuclear radiation would not be a trauma that a planet could easily ignore. This could be one explanation for why "Gaia" did not react much to the arrival of these invaders.

But now, suddenly, a surviving native human settlement has appeared...

"According to the records in the chip, after being driven away by the Iron Beasts on land, they did enter the sea in an attempt to find a habitable island."
