Chapter 1095: Executive Officer 01

s have been a bit slow lately; it's probably because life has been too comfortable."Don't look at us......our boss is here!!! I don't want to work!" The Tang sisters laughed.Lu Cheng: "......""No, wh.........

Lu Cheng stopped thinking about mechanical civilizations.

I thought the other party was coming with heavy machinery, similar to China's Tianwen-2.

To my surprise, the mecha unit actually came as a "person".

Shocked by the Mech race's bio-technology, Lu Cheng could only invite the executives aboard the 精衛 II.

This time, it was Himeki's turn to be surprised.

Unlike the previous generation machine, Lu Cheng-2, the top of this table is graced with a "Jǐngwèi'èr" card, approaching Red 1 Star level.

The summoning display was incredibly huge.

After all, the core is just a mountain, and the surroundings can't be much smaller either.

Lu Cheng, in the form of a building complex, currently serves as a residence for humans in Yanguo. It provides extraterrestrial ecological experiences for merchants.

Jingewei No. 2 is located on the shoulder of "the earth".

"Earth", of course, doesn't have shoulders. That's just a convenient way to differentiate it.

It is equipped with the Xuanyuan Mountain River Carving Life System. The interior environment of [Jingwei Building] is identical to that of Mount Wushan, quite beautiful.

The flight form is a giant bird with a wingspan of thousands of miles, the Jingwei. It can be considered a giant interplanetary transport aircraft.

She is probably not far from truly being able to fill the East China Sea...

If you think that the [Jìngwèi II] satellite has no defense capability, you are greatly mistaken.

The Lou Shi's form rises from the ground, with the 精衛機關 taking battle as its central weapon. It wields three Immortal Towers and a Scorpion Sniper Crossbow for ranged combat. In close quarters, it utilizes the Huayan Godess and the Qingyi Sword.

Yao Ji made her dwelling in the lineage of Emperor Xuan... To be honest, Lu Cheng hadn't even drawn his sword yet.

Of course, if things were really urgent to the point that Lu Cheng had to draw his sword himself, it would mean that the front line might have been pushed to Baiyu City.

The executive lady and Lu Cheng and others were discussing "01," outside of the Jīngwèi. At this point, nothing seemed out of the ordinary.

When she ascended to the [Jīngwéi Building], seeing the steaming multicolored Kunlun Mountains in the center and the surrounding city walls, she realized that the humans before her were fundamentally different from those on the brink of extinction.

The executive originally wanted to invite Lu Cheng to the Purifier's Central Region to discuss the Human Protection Zone.

Under the protection of the fringe Eastern nation, this human branch has nearly completed planetary-scale industrialization.

Red 1-Star Planetary Industrial Civilization Card Set.

This is her evaluation of humanity.

It's high, but actually still conservative.

Planetary-level industrialization in Baiyujing is almost obsolete, and it's currently transitioning towards a celestial artisanal industry....

Before, only Lu Cheng himself was able to complete the entire "entering the subtle" operation. After enjoying wealth and luxury, with the evolution of time, now Penglai and Qingqiu have deployed millions of cultivators, cultivators, artisans, and scholars, and they can also begin spirit son engraving.

Whether it's the meticulously woven silk canvas from Penglai weaving girls or the hand-painted "River and Mountains Scroll" by scholars in Nanhai Qingqiu, both are harbingers of a shift where artisanal craftsmanship begins to supersede heavy industry.

......

The executive suddenly bowed to Lu Cheng.

"Exalted Mech Master, we acknowledge that we underestimated your level and that of the Eastern forces. Our standard affairs Executor was negligent in liaising with you. If you are willing to wait, the Southern Reach Governors will arrive in four Solar Cycles' time."

"No."

Isn't this 01 executive mechanical girl... pretty good

Lu Cheng hurriedly stopped him.

"Hey, you're saying, a high-ranking Gearmaster refers to..."

“Just as your humans lack the computing power and need to manufacture mechanical aids for heavy labor, we also lack logical thinking ability and need to cultivate biological bodies to assist. These organisms that assist higher-level machines are called "superior machine controllers."” 01 answered: “Of course, the auxiliary life forms we cultivate have a high level of human intelligence. However, we have the half-life entity law, so we will not create fully self-aware life forms.”

Good heavens!

Lu Cheng was shocked beyond words.

Humans lack shells and greater strength, so they manufacture mechanical bodies to augment themselves and gain enhancements.

And the mechanical bodies will also cultivate life forms, imposing them upon themselves, like 01.

This is the Flesh-Eaters... Mechanical Ascension, Mechanics, Flesh Ascension

However, Lu Cheng knew that humans couldn't be endlessly mechanized, so there was a half-machine bill...

Never create purely mechanical entities with individual thought, i.e., intelligent machines that possess the concept of "I."

I didn't expect that the mechanical civilization would cultivate a large number of life forms to assist them, they even have a half-life being bill!

"What's wrong" 01 asked when Lu Cheng didn't respond for a long time.

For 01, that was just a really long time ago.

Although her server was located far away in the Southern Region, with her level, transmitting via mental signals was effortless. Answering Lu Cheng's question only took a thought.

Of course, if Lu Cheng used divine sense meditation and the laws of time, instead of simply using his brain to think, his thinking speed would be much faster than hers.

However, Lu Cheng's divine consciousness was divided into three parts. Most of it helped Taibai Jinxing and others paint in Baiyijing, helped fairies weave cloth in Penglai, and assisted artisans in casting coins on the Dragon Boat...

It's not enough to even use it.

"It's nothing...Officer Miss, I have some excellent magma here. How about we have some while we chat"

.......

"Earth" loves humans very much, dearly.

"The little pebble" goes without saying.

Lu Cheng agreed that after the currency reform, he would not completely replace the void transmission gates with sail power for the time being, and he would use human intelligence to help the Xuling race reform.

This ensures the Virtual Spirit Clan maintains more than half of the operational share, but it doesn't allow for a monopoly.

As a condition, the Xu Ling clan needs to help humans obtain the right to mint coins, release the Yan Kingdom market to human merchants, share teleportation technology, and pay annual tribute.

At first, the leader of the Xi Ling clan refused because it meant a major reduction in their Xi Ling clan's industry.

But Lu Cheng gave him a detailed account.

Monetary reform itself will bring huge benefits. Although the Illusory race has shrunk, its scale probably won't be much smaller than it is now.

The Xu Ling clan could only bow their heads.

There's no way.

After thousands of years of operation, it was rendered helpless by a single monetary policy.

Transaction costs falling, the transportation industry is the hardest hit.

He was killed instantly.

The Vyrling aren't without intelligence, and the Mechanists themselves are the strongest in the alliance. If the Purifiers got their hands on the minting rights, they'd have a monopoly, and the Vyrling would never have any leverage again.

We can only benefit humans, pay humans, and let them help us reform to survive this wave.

At least, in the eyes of the Illusory Spirits, humans themselves rely on the distant Eastern nation, and before the alliance's strength has been purified by a Purifier... the Illusory Spirits still have a chance to turn things around.

And true to their word, the ethereal race agreed to release the Rock Kingdom market.

Black merchants gradually disappeared from here.

Northern Song merchants stationed themselves at the Jingshi Tower, gradually replacing them over several years and establishing a planetary merchant guild on "Earth."

This also indirectly loosened the bonds for the five stone men.

After all, Lu Cheng is a regular army, not like black merchants or pirates.

I want minerals, but I don't want endangered species to go extinct!!!

Safeguard it, cultivate a good relationship.

Perhaps these spirits of the earth could be enthroned as land gods.......

Now, they are willing to work for free for humans, coming to [Jǐngwèilóu] to listen to stories.

As a reward, high-energy lava will erupt from the nearby fissures daily.

Kunlun cultivators rode their swords to the nearby area, where they could collect these fire-spirit infused "Gifts of the Earth." They brought these delicious drinks back to the Jinge Building, mixing them with high-energy honey to create a fine beverage.

Lu Cheng specifically took this out to entertain mechanical bodies. This thing has extremely high heat, used for cultivators it's a cultivation tea, used for mechanisms it's the best fuel.

I think mechanical bodies would enjoy this Northern Song Dynasty style "fuel".

I didn't expect this...

A "cute" executive has arrived from the Mechanical Civilization!

Terminal sensor array assessment indicates that this "auxiliary humanoid" structure is precise, but its strength is at the level of a Gold 5-star. It's likely designed for everyday diplomatic purposes.

This won't fit honey lava tea!

Therefore, the originally prepared welcome gift was sent to the [Changbai] cold storage on Taihang Mountain to be chilled, and only after being subjected to star-dusted processing could it be taken out.

The molten tea, appearing both scorching and crimson, bubbled and steamed in the moonstone cup. Meanwhile, the surrounding Changbai Mountain shrouded in a chilling aura, created an enchanting interplay of light and shadow within the cup.

The ruling official's lady found great interest in this.

The Third Dynasty may be long gone, but despite its weakened military power, no race denies the human's cultural card level.

The Third Dynasty, renowned for its brilliant culture, is currently under cultural protection throughout the Alliance.

Even though she had downloaded all the available human data before coming here, she had never seen these "tea" beverages.

She knows that humans generally refuel from a part called "the mouth," which is called "drinking."

Although Miss 01 calculated that inserting from the "back door" brings it closer to the energy processing system, making it more efficient...

But the Machine race was very civilized. The distant computational matrix informed her that "go around the back door" though efficient, was a rather "rude" act amongst humans, so she would never behave in such an uncivilized manner.

Lu Cheng took the opportunity to change his clothes.

After all, they are humanoids. What would it look like if I transformed into a giant mechanical building for communication

The dragon boat doesn't have heavy armor, wearing a [橫公魚] light suit of armor is just right.

It maintains a human form while also displaying the profound connection between humans and machines.rst wave. They would deploy shield-bearing chariots into temporary formations to counter waves of attacks, effectively establishing a solid foothold.You don't have to bring your own supplies, do you"N...
