As time passes, the scale of the drone swarm is getting bigger and bigger, the signal transmission lines required are also increasing, and the daily power consumption is also rising sharply, so that Greer can only arrange the wind system array for the data room to be used for cooling and air conditioning to save power consumption.

It's not that you can't afford the electricity bill, but the local people really can't afford it, Puerto Rico is an island, the economy has been declining for more than ten years, and the power plant has so much power generation, and it is really eye-catching to suddenly have a big power consumer.

The intelligent era is such a bug, two people can maintain such a large-scale intelligent facilities and data centers, and they don't usually need to sit there all the time, they can go out on dates and play, of course, the necessary alarm measures are still needed, such as putting a few demons, and summoning the mobile Pegasus out to guard the door.

As time passed, the unlit dungeons became smaller and smaller, more and more rune pictures were taken, and his understanding of rune technology became deeper and deeper.

It can be said that even if there is no gain in the future, this set of rune technology alone is enough for Stark to recover the cost, although Kama Taj also has rune technology, but that is a secret that cannot be passed on, Stark can use it himself, it is really sold and manufactured on a large scale, then it is troublesome.

After all, Casillas was getting happier and happier with the news from Strange, and he couldn't give this guy an excuse to let those neutral mages, especially the Templar Guardians, end up.

On a normal day, Grell and Daisy swim in the sea in wetsuits, which is the activity they are most interested in in the last two days, and the images and pictures of the ocean are very different from what they have seen with their own eyes, if they can't leave, they want to go deeper and farther to the bottom of the ocean to see if there is a continent of Atlantis.

was swimming, and suddenly the watch screen on the right wrist of the two people lit up, making the two of them stop, raise their hands and take a look, there was an alarm message in red letters displayed on it, and two pathfinder drones suddenly lost their signal in a corner of the dungeon.

Hurriedly ended this tour, quickly returned to the 'factory', the so-called construction site is still under construction, the outside world is said to build a factory here, these workers also thought that they were going to build a factory, from construction drawings to building materials to the procedures for setting up a factory, everything is available.

Through two security lines, only to enter the core area, which is full of wires, and neat almost not next to each other, but not cluttered, if it weren't for the wind system array, just so many server racks and equipment heat, this room can be transformed into a sauna.

Stark had already appeared on the computer screen when they entered, and by the time the two of them rushed back, Stark had already checked the footage before the pathfinder drone lost signal to understand what had happened.

In a dark corridor, a beam of light shot out from the front of the two pathfinder drones, illuminating the quaint wall, and when the rune pattern meaning 'open the door' was found, another instrument of the drone activated, and fired a special energy beam at this rune pattern, activating this rune pattern.

The simple pattern of circles and lines on the old stone slabs immediately lit up, and like other local hospitals, it quickly spread, and the integrated stone wall slowly opened a crack, and then... There was no then, and the drone lost its signal in an instant.

Stark on the screen was still talking: "The signal attenuation in this area has increased several times, and the two waves of drones sent on Friday have all lost their signals, and it seems that we have activated the incredible rune circle." ”

"I'll take a look." As he spoke, Grell turned and walked in the direction of the tunnel, pulling the Neo decade drive out of his pocket and clasping it around his waist as he went.

The silver metal belt immediately extends from one end, wraps around the waist, and inserts it precisely into the other side of the Neo decade drive, which is firmly fastened around the waist, and then the knight card case with the balance pattern automatically appears and hangs on the silver belt.

As soon as Grell raised his hand, the knight's card box automatically opened, and a card popped out of it, falling into Greer's palm and inserting it into the Neo decade drive.

"How do you prove it?" Stark asked rhetorically, making Dr. Banner dumbfounded, you said that aliens will invade if they want to invade? If you can't get the time, place, and quantity, why should people give up developing the economy and follow you to prepare for war; I took it out, so how do you know this?

How difficult it is to persuade politicians who only have ballot boxes in their eyes to spend a lot of money to engage in armaments against aliens can refer to the difficulty of persuading Trump to close the country to fight the virus in early February, and it is easier to reach the sky.

Stark lay on the soft leather sofa, closed his eyes and rubbed his forehead, and said, "Needless to say, after the Battle of the Covenant, all countries are thinking about dealing with the alien invasion, and after the Battle of London, they have begun to deploy. ”

With Stark's words, Jarvis also gave relevant information in a timely manner, and the missile production and stockpiles of one country after the war began to rise, and the federal government began to purchase Argolis exoskeleton armor, and NASA and Stark Industries cooperated to launch deep space exploration satellites......

The internal turmoil of mankind has decreased by 60% after the Battle of the Covenant, and more people's eyes have turned to outer space, looking up at the starry sky, and what they see is no longer quiet and bright, but deep worry and fear, always fearing that in this darkness, a space warship armed to the teeth will fly out, and the earth will be blown into a scorched earth.

After the war of the covenant, the apocalyptic rhetoric in 2012 was very loud, and many people saw this business opportunity and made a fortune by selling various doomsday arks or something, and some small churches also took the opportunity to use the apocalypse as a propaganda point to hype up and make a fortune.

After all, the world has just experienced a brutal alien invasion war, and it is in the stage of panic, and the doomsday rhetoric is indeed very marketable, in order to stabilize the social order, the government is forced to take out the Avengers to calm people's hearts: we have the Avengers, easily defeat the aliens.

During that time, it was the honeymoon period between the Avengers and the government, and the two sides were friendly and reciprocal, and the governor also signed a cooperation agreement with Tony Sterke to let the Avengers settle in Manhattan in order to calm people's hearts and restore the prosperity of Manhattan as soon as possible.

But it didn't take long for the relationship between the two sides to take a sharp turn for the worse, especially the military's future enemies added aliens, and they urgently needed powerful weapons and equipment, and the world's strongest individual mecha Iron Man suit, naturally first, but Stark still refused, and he was unwilling to leak any technology, and he refused to let the Avengers become a squad that obeyed the orders of the White House.

The honeymoon period ended, and the official media stopped promoting the Avengers, and planned to form their own superpower squad, which designed and produced the Argolis exoskeleton armor, Karn Industries, which received a large number of orders.

According to Jarvis's 'eavesdropping', Samuel Stern, who had been heavily contaminated with a military base due to the deliberate leakage of gamma rays, was secretly transferred from a special prison where he was held, and General Ross was also transferred out of the logistics department, and was also missing.

If it had been before, Stark would definitely have figured out all this and found the green head Samuel Stern who had mutated into a super pervert, but this time he heard the news, but he was silent, and only let Jarvis continue to pay attention, and did not mention anything else.

The root of it is the threat of Sanos, the human race is too weak compared to the Dark Order, and it is no worse than the peak Tyson beating children, so we must use all means to enhance the comprehensive strength of the human race, even if this method... Inhumane.

But compared to destruction, everything seems unimportant, so Stark chooses to 'ignore' and let the military do it, even if it is a group of gamma monsters who have no reason, it is better than being captured.

Even sometimes he wondered if he really came to the last moment and made an Ultron, would he start a war with the army of Thanos centered on protecting the earth?

But just think about it, Ultron's side effects are too great, not to mention that he really can't figure it out, even the template mind gem is in Sanos's hands, and the only hope is the neural network diagram of the big tree made by Hela, during this time, he and Dr. Banner have been studying this, hoping to create a new generation of artificial intelligence.

A glimpse of the whole leopard is that the US imperialists are actively preparing to fight against aliens, and other major powers in the world are similar, and I don't know how many plans have been planned to deal with alien invasions in the past three years, but the effect is debatable.

So I really don't need Stark to remind me, the last thing that human beings lack is smart people and idlers, and they will always ask their subordinates to make all kinds of plans, and then make crazy modifications, and finally ask for the first version...

It didn't take long for the mechanical arm to finish the two thick magic books, and the mechanical arm closed them together and sent them to the table in front of Greel.

It took Jarvis only two minutes to finish the spellbook that Grell had spent nearly two weeks reading, and the translation was completed against the ancient text information in the huge database, and then it was only necessary for Grell to check it for errors, and the compilation was complete.

In the era of artificial intelligence, a lot of work that was very difficult in the past is now extremely easy and easy, which makes Grell quite excited, and it has sprouted the magic book in the collection of Kama Taj and turned it into a digital book, but unfortunately this is destined to be a luxury, and it is not so easy to change the habit that has been adhered to for a long time.

With the 'dictionary', the exploration of the dungeon can be in full swing, and in the past half a month, Stark has registered a trading company in Puerto Rico and bought two large warehouses near the port of San Juan, of course, not in his own name.

Then there was one more freighter between the ports of San Juan and the port of Twist, and the warehouse began to build office areas, and in the noise of construction machinery, underground tunnels were quietly excavated, and work was carried out day and night, and the tunnel was opened 200 meters deep in just two days.

The main reason for taking so long is manpower limitations, out of secrecy, workers cannot be involved, so all the work is done by Grell and Jarvis who controls the steel suit remotely, and a series of engineering steel suits designed and manufactured by Stark before came in handy during this time, one on top of one engineering team.

This tunnel construction also gave Stark a taste of the sweetness of artificial intelligence, people thousands of miles away, can command the construction of steel suits, the only loss is the Ark reactor, which gives Stark a new idea to build a professional engineering robot to build a secret base.

This was naturally a fantasy in the past, but the new micro-storage technology based on nanotechnology allows the steel suit to be transported without having to transport the huge Ghanaian warehouse as before, and now it can be compressed to an incredible extent, and can be fully assembled on cars and airplanes.

Stark and Dr. Banner are busy in Manhattan with the new generation of artificial intelligence, while Grell and Daisy return to San Juan to deal with the dungeon, and in order to orderly command a large number of drones and intelligent machines, they also set up a server room here to run Jarvis's backup AI: Friday.

It can be said that for this dungeon exploration, Stark invested billions of dollars to build an intelligent system, Grell only needs to pull the containers full of supplies from the port to the warehouse, and the rest will be taken over by Friday.

The robotic arm will take out the goods, the drone will transport the goods to the elevator in the tunnel and send them to the dungeon, and there are drones below to carry the goods away and transport them to the place where they are needed along the tunnel that extends in all directions.

In terms of the monitoring that Daisy is responsible for, with the location of the tunnel mouth as the center, a wired communication base station has been established, and drones are shuttling back and forth like industrious bees, some are exploring in front, some are responsible for transporting supplies in the rear, that is, batteries, some are scanning and recording rune arrays, and some...

It is quite intelligent and unmanned, but the preliminary preparation is extremely cumbersome, requiring exclusive communication satellites to be connected to here at all times, and also building a satellite signal receiving platform, a drone room, power supply lines, etc., and the wires consumed alone are enough to circle Puerto Rico three and a half times.

The tunnel alone hangs down hundreds of arm-thick cables for signal transmission and power supply, and the daily photoelectric fee is an astronomical amount, so it can be said that it is really a real exploration of this dungeon at all costs.

During this period of operation, Grell also knew why large-scale ruins were only explored at the national level, and the cost was too big and too great, and the daily expenses alone were enough to scare a bunch of people, and the gains rarely made up for the shortfall.

Just like now, Friday's drone swarm has explored half of the dungeon, but except for the rune array, all they found are some daily necessities, which are of little value except for entering the museum, making people wonder if this dungeon is a residential area, without the laboratory or factory or anything like that Stark expected.

It's just that this kind of time has come to pass, no matter what, you have to complete the exploration, otherwise all the investment in the early stage will be in vain.
