First Woman Alpha

Cen Zhao stared at this incomprehensible invitation letter for half an hour, then took a deep breath and decided to do something else to change his mind first, and then read it again.

Since Uncle Yan sent her this invitation without anything, it proved that she must have read it, or that he thought she had the ability to read it. If she thinks so, then she must have overlooked some important information, or did not think of some means of interpretation, which makes her unable to read it.

Because he just wanted to change his mind, Cen Zhao did not do design work, but came to the assembly center of the fourth institute and asked the administrator to receive an assembly task.

Although Cen Zhao didn't stay in No. 4 for a long time, because of his appetite and talent in mechanical design and assembly, he was recognized by the resident staff in No. 4, so when the administrator saw her coming, he didn't even think about it. After thinking about it, he handed over the two most complicated tasks to her, and then asked her with earnest eyes: "How long are you going to stay? It's been so long since you've been here, and your craftsmanship is rusty. Why don't you come to practice a few more?"

Cen Zhao refused his "invitation" with a smile, took two tasks and ran away. Under the guidance of the task robot, he came to the assembly point of the first task.

This is a separate assembly workshop, with neatly placed parts in the room, and at a glance, it is known that it is the masterpiece of the mechanic who is famous for the four obsessive-compulsive disorder.

Cen Zhao likes this way of placement very much. The placement of each part is clear at a glance, and she does not need to spend time sorting it out before assembling.

It’s a pity that very few designers are willing to do this. For a sloppy designer like Nie Xingli, the assembler needs to find the required parts all over the room, and the preparation work alone may take an hour.

Standing at the door and scanning around, he took out the design drawings and looked at it. He had a rough model of the whole machine in his mind. Cen Zhao moved his wrist and began to assemble it.

Today, she is no longer the little rookie who passively activated the ability. The ability is like an arm to her. To assemble this kind of work, she only needs to mobilize a little ability to complete it perfectly, not even the time limit of the ability. Need to consume, can be said to be handy.

The large and small parts were sent to Cen Zhao by the auxiliary robot in a pre-set order. Her hands were flipped up and down. The movements were not graceful, but they were pleasing to the eye because of their extreme simplicity.

If there are other people watching at this time, they will find that they can't concentrate on other things at all, and all their attention will be on Cen Zhao's hands. ...

Twenty minutes later, Cen Zhao installed the last piece in its place, and looked at the newly formed machine curiously.

If she is not mistaken, this machine should be some kind of small unmanned space transportation warehouse, but the internal warehouse capacity is not large, and the control system is also very simple. It looks like an old model that was eliminated five years ago, and it is not worth it. Give out advanced assembly tasks and assemble with more than 95% fit.

I have to say that this machine has any advantages, that is, it has a good-looking appearance. After being assembled, it looks like a cute little animal. The two observation windows are like two big dripping eyes, which are very cute.

When did that designer go this route? She clearly remembered that he always took the simplest route. Even the designs made by the students to make the mechanical appearance look good were severely criticized by him. How could he do it himself?

After thinking about it, Cen Zhao's hand in handing over the mission was not idle, and then he was ready to let the mission robot take him to the next mission site.

However, before she could leave the studio, the door of the studio opened again, and the designer walked in.

Before he could say hello to him, Cen Zhao was attracted by the little baby in his arms.

"Huh? Professor Xu, is this your child?"

Professor Xu was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "It turned out that you took over my task, then I took advantage of it, thank you! Yes, this is my son... No, it should be my daughter? No, it seems that son?"

Seeing Professor Xu's tangled face, how could Cen Zhao still not know what's going on?

"A child of the new gender?"

"Yes, after a preliminary test, it's a Beta-gender child, but whether it's male or female, we won't know until the child is half a year old. Now everyone is calling 'baby' and 'baby', so I don't care about that. "

"It's so cute!" Cen Zhao leaned over, carefully stretched out a finger and poked the little doll's fleshy face, then looked at his big watery eyes, grabbed his finger, and held it in front of him very seriously. Seriously, it's like doing major research.

"Wow, the way the baby thinks is carved out of the same mold as Professor Xu, it's really similar!"

Professor Xu looked proud: "Right? The little guy must be a mechanical genius. Let me tell you, he can understand the language of machines! Amazing, right? He can't even understand the words of his parents, but he can understand the words of these machines. , it has been several times, he can respond to some mechanical language, so I plan to bring him to the studio a few more times, let him be nurtured since childhood, and when he is really sensible, he must be a real little genius!"

Cen Zhao was stunned, not even noticing that his fingers were being dragged into his mouth by the baby.

Mechanical language?

Yes, why did she forget to use this one? !

Thinking of this, Cen Zhao withdrew his fingers that had been licked twice, and without saying goodbye, turned around and ran straight to his studio.

Behind her, Professor Xu, as if not surprised, tapped his baby on the head lightly, telling him not to eat indiscriminately, and then went to check the "big toy" he had just made with the baby in his arms.

Cen Zhao ran all the way back to the studio, built a mechanical language tool machine with existing parts and materials, and then scanned the translated unknown language into the machine and waited for the running result.

Machinery has its own language - this phrase originated from a master of mechanical physics more than 70 years ago.

When he proposed this theory back then, many people thought it was just the unique romance of a machine lover, until he came up with a complete set of mechanical language interpretation methods, which shocked the entire industry.

The mechanical language mentioned here is different from the noise generated by the general mechanical operation. They are usually not captured by the human ear, and they do not belong to any kind of sound wave. To decipher them, a special conversion method is required to finally become a language understood by people.

However, although this theory shocked the industry, it has not received much attention, because the practical application scope of mechanical language is too narrow, and the meaning that can be expressed is very simple, and these translated "languages" are ultimately only to assist human understanding. Mechanical state, but there are too many ways to detect the state, and "listening" is only one of them.

After the results of this research were made public, some people tried to use mechanical language to reverse compile the code, that is, to convert the information they wanted to transmit into mechanical language, and then the interpreter would decrypt the content. A rare folk password game.

Cen Zhao didn't think about this at all before, because encryption and decryption using this method requires specific tools, and it is indeed very rare. From childhood to adulthood, she only listened to Qingyun College's classmates once. mentioned when.

If it wasn't for her good memory, she would have forgotten all about it.

It only took fifteen seconds for the decryption machine to go silent from startup to quiet, and Qiqi received the decrypted file very quickly.

Sure enough, those incomprehensible languages ​​had been converted into Commonwealth, clearly marked with time, place, and items.

It was also at this time that Cen Zhao understood why Uncle Yan thought she was slow to complete the task.

This invitation letter is only valid for forty-five days, and today is the eighth day that it will take effect. If she delays the task of Jingnan Xing for another month, or there are too many vague parts that need to be demonstrated in the design, this The invitation letter has expired.

The location indicated in the invitation letter is inside a fringe star field called "East Wilderness" in the Federation. This star field has been incorporated into the territory of the Federation for less than 20 years. There are many planets in the star field that need to open up wasteland. The star field where the golden hunters gather, where the Federal Military Department has also deployed a lot of troops, belongs to the conventional military control area, and ordinary people cannot go there without a special pass.

Two years ago, when Cen Zhao was not the captain, he followed the seniors of the Star Base to the Eastern Desolate Star Region to arrest a notorious criminal gang, and had a taste of the sturdy folk customs of the Eastern Desolation Star Region.

Of course, the current Cen Zhao will no longer be shocked by the atmosphere there. It is better to say that she feels excited when she thinks about it, but she has never had the opportunity to go again. Now that she has the opportunity, why not go?

Although this invitation does not have a clear description, it should be a wasteland entry ticket for a certain planet or planets. One invitation letter can be used by two people. From the day when the invitation letter is activated, there is a month of free time.

If you are lucky, you can find a special mine within this month, and it is not a dream to get rich overnight.

But there is still a place, who should she bring?

While thinking, Cen Zhao submitted a leave application to the base for 40 days, and then left the team management work to a team member who she used as a daily logistics team member.

Taking a good leave, Cen Zhao went out to complete the remaining assembly task, and then knocked on Zhong Liuying's door.

As soon as the door opened, a strong pheromone that belonged to Zhong Liuying rushed toward the face. If a Beta was standing at the door, he might have been paralyzed on the ground and wet his pants, but Cen Zhao didn't change his face, raised his feet and walked to the bed. Zhong Liuying, who was gasping for breath in the center of the room, kicked his arm with his toes.

"Get up, the captain will take you to have a long experience."
