Chapter 767 Cause and Effect (I)
Why did Colonel Anderson lose contact?
This answer was already more than half solved when we saw the rendezvous point.
The so-called rendezvous point is a huge comprehensive research facility.
As a comprehensive research facility in the interstellar era, the scale here is comparable to a prosperous financial CBD area in the old era, and the rich land resources and strong industrial construction capabilities make them not need to maintain the design style of every inch of land is valuable.
A super complex research facility with an area comparable to that of a city. Just looking at the area, this place may be equivalent to the main urban area of Night City, but the population may be less than one percent.
The extremely luxurious population-to-land ratio is so beautiful that Johnny and Lil drool.
Johnny's world is not that there is no good place to live, but that good places cannot be afforded.
In Lil's world, although he believes that the earth can accommodate more than 10 billion people, and subsequent technological progress can indeed support this argument, they still hit the surface and there is almost no habitable space.
However, this place has become a ruin, which makes people feel a lot more "balanced".
This research facility has become a ruined ghost town, as if it had been bombed.
This research facility was built on the coast, and there is a very unique core on the seashore. Judging from the wreckage, it looks like some kind of artwork, which should be a sphere composed of rings.
There are no signs of any living activities in the facility. Wild dragons are circling in the sky. It seems that their prey regards this place as a nest.
Breaking open the broken door of the facility, Lille completely confirmed that the facility has completely stopped, the security system has completely collapsed, and there is no circuit that can still form a loop.
BT made a comment: "It is hard to imagine how large an explosion would be to cause such comprehensive damage. Colonel Anderson's signal finally appeared inside, investigating this facility.
However, to cause this scale of damage, the damage to the building should be even greater.
My body is not suitable for passing through the passage here. I will wait for you in front."
The three of them split up here, Lille and Jack entered the facility, and BT found a way in.
In the original book, because the mission was the mission of Jack's master, BT's official pilot, the late Captain Lastimosa, and had nothing to do with the riflemen, Jack ignored them after leaving the factory and explored the facility alone.
The scene would seem a bit cold and lonely, with a faint sense of desolation and loneliness.
But now there is a little difference
Lear rushed to produce a total of 31 Destroyer Shell III robots from the IMC factory. Although these things cannot fly long distances, there is no problem at all for them to arrive at the facility with him!
In other words, as BT went to find another way, it was not Jack alone who walked into the gate of the facility, but Jack, Lear, and his other 30 combat robots!
One person's exploration turned into a sweeping advance of a group of robots, and the mighty army of robots walked into the facility in a uniform pace.
Jack suddenly felt quite novel: because everything went wrong since landing, he thought he would play the role of a lone hero.
As for Lille, he was very nervous from the first second he stepped into the place:
Because he knew that the reason why this place became a ruin was because the energy of the Holy Ark went out of control!
The loss of control of the Holy Ark not only destroyed this place, but also left a very significant space-time distortion phenomenon here, which was the goal he wanted to study!
Thirty robots, one of which was himself, all the sensors on his body were turned on, and the processor and communication device were increased to the highest power, trying to record every minute and every moment of change.
Jack wanted to say a few words, but seeing Lille so focused, he simply entered the mission mode.
[Dimensional gap detected]
Lille suddenly received a prompt from the system and a message from another world-
Before he crossed again, he locked the working mode of his body in Latveria and turned it into an inter-dimensional signal tower.
Not only did he maintain contact with the Transformers world, but he also continued to send some fixed information.
Just now, Lille received noisy information, as if from the void.
Because before entering the facility, he and BT confirmed that there was no signal source here.
The two walked into the facility. The ruined front desk was left with only the remains of a civilian robot, and the road to the next floor was blocked by collapsed building structures.
"It seems we have to find a way."
Just as Jack opened his mouth to say something, the world in front of the two began to distort violently!
In a trance, the ruins in front of them turned into a spotless laboratory, and the scrapped robots were working intact at the workbench.
There were even living people talking in front of the holographic panel on the wall!
Time seemed to have gone back to before the explosion!
[Space-time distortion, dimensional cracks widened. ] [Ambulance: This is the Cybertron Moon Base, Lille, we are continuously transmitting information, please reply if you receive it.]
[Ambulance: Received please]
"What is this!"
"There is an unknown robot!"
Before Lille began to reply to the Cybertron research team as planned, the researchers in the facility suddenly shouted in panic!
The entire facility suddenly entered alert mode, the warm lights instantly turned into a dazzling red, and the isolation riot walls all fell down, making a loud bang!
Boom!
There was an explosion outside the window, and then everything returned to normal!
[Combat robots in the network: 28]
Jack's puzzled voice came from the dead ruins: "What was that just now?"
[BT7274: Time and space distortions permeate this facility, and it seems to have caused a crack in time. I suggest that we should be careful before we have further information. ]
[BT7274: Lear, I found that you have lost a few robots. There seem to be similar robot wreckage on the ground. ]
[BT7274: What's going on? ]
". They were killed in the past."
Jack and BT were both stunned.
Only Lear knew that the situation must be like this: the two robots that lost contact just now were destroyed by the IMC troops stationed here in the past!
At the moment when time and space were distorted, his processor resources were all used to observe and analyze cross-dimensional information, and he had no energy to fight at all!
[Lill: BT, I need to know how much you know about this phenomenon? ]
[BT7274: Not too much. I suggest that we should be careful before we have further information. ]
[Lille: Does your database have information on FTL technology and interstellar communication? ]
[BT7274: Information in this area is very expensive and complicated. As a combat Titan, I don't have relevant data saved. ]
[BT7274: But I can tell you that this model is based on the existence of cracks between universes, that is, "voids". ]
[BT7274: The phase shift device carried by Ronin Pilot is based on this theory. If you need, I can retrieve the equipment information for you, but these data will not contain the basic principles. ]
[Lille: Enough. ]
His robot went from the present to the past. Energy and matter were transferred at the same time.
This is the key to the breakthrough of cross-dimensional technology. "Keep going, I feel like we're very close to the truth."
Lill's emotions were obviously higher than Jack's. Just as they continued to move forward, time and space began to twist again——
[Squeak——]
[Ambulance: Got it, please reply]
[Lill: I have a new equipment design that needs your analysis——]
"There are enemies! They're here!"
This time, when traveling through time and space, five fully armed IMC riflemen appeared directly in front of Lill and Jack!
