Chapter 1402: After the War, Recruitment

The dismantling of the signal device went very smoothly. As the manufacturer of Gamelot, Dodor naturally knew the specific location of the signal device.

After it was dismantled, it was immediately transported back to the MAC team's headquarters base and then sent to the laboratory of the scientific research department.

After Duoduo used the instruments in the laboratory to modify the signal device, the signal device started working again.

Then, everyone worked non-stop to install the signal device into the carrier rocket that had been prepared long ago, and then sent it into the starry sky.

The signal device is powered by the most technologically advanced energy battery currently available in the Earth Defense Force, which is enough to keep the signal device running for a long time. By the time it stops working due to energy depletion, it will probably be far away from the Earth.

By then, even if Salin Star reacted and wanted to start an investigation, it would definitely be delayed for a long time.

During this period, the Earth has every opportunity to develop rapidly.

However, in Gu Chen's opinion, there is no need to worry about this problem. The Dark Country will take action with an entire planet's robot army. Maybe it won't be long before the Dark Country will have another army.

"Dr. Dodol, I wonder what your plans are for the future?"

After the incident was over, and everyone was devoted to helping Duoduo and Caroline escape, Gu Chen found Duoduo and got straight to the point.

"Mr. Gu Chen, you all know about Caroline and I's situation. I wonder how you plan to arrange for us?"

Hearing this, Duoduo showed a bitter smile on his face. What other plans could he have now?

His hometown, Salin, has been occupied by the rebellious Camelot. Even if the people on Earth are kind enough to provide him with the raw materials for a spaceship and help him build a new spaceship, where can they go?

After all, with the current technology on Earth, there is no trace of jump engines, and rockets or spacecraft still use traditional chemical energy fuels. In this case, Duoduo is like a good cook without rice, and even if he can leave the Earth, he can't go far.

So for Dodor and Caroline, their only choice now is to stay on Earth. The difference lies in what kind of life they will live after staying on Earth.

Fortunately, the people they met on Earth after arriving were all kind, so Dodor and Caroline had no objection to staying on Earth. Moreover, the same appearance and the same language also made them feel a sense of belonging to Earth.

Therefore, in response to Gu Chen's question, Duoduo chose to kick the ball back and prepare to see how Gu Chen was going to arrange things with him and Caroline.

"Dr. Dodor, to be honest, I plan to invite you and Caroline to join our Earth Defense Force, and I intend to let you lead a scientific research team to create robots for our Earth Defense Force."

Gu Chen did not beat around the bush with Duoduoer and directly expressed his thoughts. At the end, he added: "Of course, all this is based on your willingness, Dr. Duoduoer. If you don't want to, I can also arrange for you and Caroline to have ordinary identities and live an ordinary life here as ordinary humans."

"Build robots? Mr. Gu Chen, aren't you afraid that the tragedy of Salin Planet will happen again on Earth?"

When Duoduo heard the arrangement Gu Chen had in mind for him, he was shocked and asked quickly.

"In the ancient Eastern country, there is an old saying that every failure makes one wiser. I believe that Dr. Dodor should be able to come up with corresponding preventive measures after experiencing the Camelot rebellion. What's more, I don't plan to build a fully automatic robot. My idea is to build a semi-automatic robot driven by a human."

Gu Chen smiled when he heard this and began to explain.

Since we are worried that manufacturing fully automatic robots will cause an intelligent machine crisis, why don’t we simply not manufacture fully automatic robots?

"This... is an idea, but operating such a huge robot is difficult for the pilot..."

Duoduo was stunned for a moment, and after quickly simulating Gu Chen's suggestion in his mind, he slowly nodded in agreement.

Although this will place much stricter demands on the driver, it can indeed avoid the intelligent machine crisis that may break out under normal circumstances. In comparison, the disadvantages such as operating difficulty cannot be considered disadvantages.

"In that case, what do you think, Doctor Doddle? Do you want to join the Earth Defense Force and contribute to protecting the peace of the Earth, or live an ordinary life as an ordinary person? Of course, no matter what you choose, I will give you the greatest respect."

Seeing this, Gu Chen asked again.

"Mr. Gu Chen, I have made up my mind. Caroline and I will join the Earth Defense Force. After all, we don't know if Camelot will come to Earth again in the future. I don't want the Earth to lose a major fighting force because of me at that time."

Dodor did not struggle with this issue for long and soon chose to join the Earth Defense Force.

"Then, on behalf of all members of the Earth Defense Force, I welcome you, Dr. Dodor, to join us."

Seeing that Duoduo chose to join the Earth Defense Force, the smile on Gu Chen's face suddenly became even brighter.

"But Mr. Gu Chen, there are some things I need to explain to you in advance. Although I have only been on Earth for a while, I have also discovered that Earth's technology is far from being able to support the robot manufacturing project, so the robot you envision may take a long time to manufacture."

Duoduo smiled, then remembered something and spoke.

"I understand, but I believe that with you here, Dr. Doddle, these problems will not be a problem."

Gu Chen expressed his understanding. If one wants to manufacture such a large combat robot, not to mention the energy issue, the material issue is a huge problem.

Ensuring both the flexibility and toughness of the material is undoubtedly a huge challenge for the current materials science on Earth, and it is also a huge challenge for Dr. Dodor.

After all, just because some materials exist on Salin doesn't necessarily mean they exist on Earth, which means that the alloy material formula that Dr. Dodor knows is difficult to replicate on Earth. This means that he can only rely on the knowledge he has mastered to find alternative materials or improve the material formula on Earth in order to create a robot again.

This is undoubtedly a very time-consuming and labor-intensive task, so he has to make it clear to Gu Chen in advance, so as to avoid being blamed and dissatisfied by Gu Chen if he fails to produce results in time.

However, Duoduo didn't know that his worries were completely unnecessary. Gu Chen would not be dissatisfied with him or blame him for such a small matter.

Besides, the situation may not be as early as Dodor thought. After all, they still have BUG-level scientists such as Dr. Iwamoto, Mitsuhiro Ihachi, and Yoichi Kaji.
