Chapter 314 Atlas Group


Chapter 314 Atlas Group

Lille likes motivated young people

No, now he is only eighteen and Frank is thirty-eight.

When everyone saw this, the slightest doubt in their hearts was washed away, and immediately turned into complex emotions about the uncertainty of the future.

Lille drew a super big pie for them.

But how do you develop in a land you have never seen before and accomplish this feat?

I feel a little uneasy.

Lille smiled and gave Frank a thumbs up: "Yes, the first thing to solve is the security issue."

Africa is a sweet spot in Lille's eyes, but It doesn't mean that all the people there are good.

“I’m going to register a private military contractor there.”

Sensitive word, quite sensitive.

After all, Lille’s anti-war stance has always been clear, but now they are doing this, which makes everyone a little surprised.

Actually, Lille also has some headaches about this.

Although Wakanda promised to open a back door to his policies, security issues were not something Wakanda could solve.

The African Union has tried its best to resist the surrounding warlords, and domestic security is in a mess. A striking example is Somalia——

This country is still in a state of armed separatism, and its GDP has been decreasing year after year. It is quite normal for people to rob passing ships

It can even be regarded as their means of livelihood, a job.

Wakanda’s internal security is pretty good, but Wakanda is a super closed country. It’s impossible to just plunge into isolation, right?

The bad social state was displayed on the screen, and everyone was silent.

New York is indeed free, and before Broome's ctOS rollout, there could even be machine guns in Hell's Kitchen.

But these are still at the level of street melees, and there are real wars in Africa.

The good news is that Africa is in chaos, but the intensity is not high. The most powerful weapons are tanks and missiles that have been eliminated from the Middle East, and the quality of the personnel is also low.

Lille is not going to fight. Martin's dedicated Inner Demon Gang only needs a few equipment upgrades to be able to provide adequate security.

As for elites like Frank, as long as Lille wants to, defeating some warlords is not a problem at all.

“The main business of this private military contractor is to protect our own production facilities, but to be honest, I have anticipated that after our industry rises, some people internationally will accuse us of economic colonization of Africa.


I've discussed this with the King of Wakanda, and while we're actually kind of helping the poor, that's the way it is.

The company is divided into two parts. One is the original business of Xinan Anbao, which protects core production materials and maintains daily stability.

The second part requires strong emergency response capabilities. Frank, you are responsible for this part.

The candidate can be your former comrades-in-arms, disabled veterans. It’s up to you. ”

“Our initial headquarters will be set up in Tanzania. According to the contract, we can purchase a piece of land around Salam at a very low price.

But there is nothing there except land, and there may be hidden terrorist groups, so--Frank, I have to leave this to you. ”

Lille projected intelligence information from the African Union on the screen.

The name of this “terrorist” group is quite creative: the Grassland Liberation Front.

Everyone looked a little weird: What a decent name.

Liel shrugged: "That's what it is over there, liberate this and equalize that. The program of this organization is to cut off all ties between Tanzania and the outside world. , restored theocratic rule.

As for the name, they probably learned it from some arms dealer. According to reliable sources, they may also engage in human trafficking.

Get them done, and then we will transport the power generation equipment through Salam.

This requires us to work hard. When we get there, only wind and solar power can be used in the short term, and the power supply standards must be re-established.

I have a plan here.”

Liel took out a hard drive box from his pocket, and everyone in the conference room suddenly stared blankly——

"Well, it's just ordinary wind and solar power."

The information here is a summary of the various power supply solutions used by hundreds of thousands of people in Adecado in the Badlands.

In general, wind power and solar power are not exaggerated high-tech, and Adecado’s data is more realistic and diverse.

And if the power supply network is established systematically here, it can also be used in bad soil.

“Are you sure?” Dr. Otto and Dr. Toombs asked in unison.

"I'm sure - really, just some data that might help with the design."

Leal distributed the hard drives to his researchers, who would oversee the studies by the two men in the fields of mechanics and energy. Perfected by experts.

Some data? Otto and Toomes looked at each other suspiciously: Do "some" data need such a large hard drive box?

Regardless of these two people, Lille continued: "In the short term, our business will continue. Michael, how is the prosthetic system going? Also, your body"
< br>Michael's body is now much "stronger". After the original death warrior components have been dismantled, his body is left with only a skeleton-like prosthetic body, which can barely provide energy for the brain.

Yes, only his brain and half of his face are completely his own, and the rest of his body has been completely prosthetic.

This skeleton is now filled with more motors and batteries, and the outer shell has been redesigned. When wearing clothes, it is almost impossible to tell that his body is mechanized.

He took out a chip from his neck.

“It’s done, our current prosthetic production line can cover limbs, replacement spines, and some small compensatory muscles.

Well, there are actually quite a lot of categories, but It’s all integrated into the operating system.”

[Results of the Advanced Prosthetic Research Laboratory: Basic Operating System NexusOS Foundation 1.0]

[Description: A completely self-developed prosthetic integration system, compatible with all first-generation self-produced prostheses, and the control of micromotors is amazing Its technology and performance are 30% higher than the average value of multiple beta versions. 】

[Developers: Michael Collins, Professor Connors]

[Reward technology points: 500 points]

[Current technology points: 9500]


The first generation of prostheses is based on brain-computer interface. A large number of micromotors are combined with exquisite mechanical structures to achieve bionic effects. It may look very technological on the outside, but in fact it can only be regarded as a rough combination of mechanical prosthesis and exoskeleton.

Relatively speaking, the sensor is not sophisticated enough, and the user experience is quite different from that of top-level customized prosthetics.

As for the beta version, it is actually an operating system that Lear is tinkering with in the cyberpunk world. Over there, prosthetics from various companies are in a superficially compatible state, and a variety of illegal self-made prosthesis.

That is, Lille is proficient in a variety of technologies, and ordinary black clinics can be plugged in and used. If you can't find a doctor, you will become insane.

This system can be transplanted to the cyberpunk world with slight modifications to upgrade the software of the first generation of prosthetics.

“Not bad.” Lille nodded, “What about the development of the second-generation prosthetic body?”

The second-generation prosthetic body will add implantable structures, and add more implantable structures to the prosthetic body. More intelligent microprocessors, and beginning to enhance visceral capabilities.

Connors looked at Peter, who compiled the information: "The experiment of growing animal organs with lizard serum has been successful. We will start the human organ cloning experiment immediately. I think there should be no problem."

"Then the follow-up research progress will increase rapidly." Michael was also a little excited. After all, trapped in a mechanical body, many feelings disappeared with the disappearance of biological tissues.

This full-body prosthesis is more like a coffin to support his brain activities. The feedback is vague, and ordinary people would have gone crazy.

According to the plan, the third-generation prosthesis will try to simulate more peripheral nerves and provide a lifelike perception system, which can make him feel more like a human being.

But before that, the development of the second-generation prosthetic body must be completed.

Finally, doing everything requires money.

Lille looked at Hammond: "Are you having financial difficulties?"

Hammond smiled and put down the tablet in his hand. He had already roughly completed the budget estimate: "That's it? Boss, you have some misunderstandings about our profitability now

Instead of worrying about not having enough money, It is better to worry about the speed of development. Infrastructure construction takes a long time. ”

Cement needs time to cool, steel needs time to smelt, and workers need time to work.

Build a future city from the vacant land. , you have money, you have technology, you also have to have time.

“So we have to do whatever it takes and we have many new technologies here that have not yet been put into the civilian market.”

Leal took out a small stick of prepared spider silk catalyst, and pulled out a tube of cement from the octopus arm at his waist.

The little octopus picked up the pouring gun next to the wall, absorbed the cement, and poured it into the mold next to the bucket -

Generally speaking, the setting and curing of cement takes time.

“We must find ways to shorten every bit of time. Some technologies are not only effective in the field of special operations, such as this.

I guess you all know this kind of spider silk with explosive tensile strength. ”

Everyone nodded: Leal used it when he rescued Dr. Toomes, and Spider-Woman even used it to do justice in the city.

Peter immediately thought of what Leal wanted to do, and it seemed as if a door slowly opened in his head

The little octopus sent the vibrating rod into the cement, and Leal added solvent to the vibrating rod. ——

A magical thing happened. When the little octopus pulled the vibrating rod out of the cement, the cement that should have taken several days to solidify quickly dried and solidified, and the octopus arm was immediately replaced with a hammer

Bang.

The clear voice seemed to hit everyone's hearts.

“The strength will exceed the standard strength within 16 hours. The spider silk solution can significantly speed up the construction process. All we need to do is to equip workers with civilian engineering exoskeletons and equip them with safety devices and production tools. ”

There are not many large-scale equipment in Africa, but there are many people.

Lille's ideas are very inspiring, and everyone here rarely thinks about these little things.

Before this, Peter would almost every once in a while fantasize about how he could fly in the sky and help the citizens of New York.

And the streets of New York are full of homeless people, and there's no way they can help.

Perhaps they have different reasons for wandering, but the easiest thing to connect is not having a house to live in, and having a house to live in.

At this moment, he suddenly thought of the scene where he took the spider silk solution to build a house and sheltered the poor people in the world

So Peter quickly raised his hand: "Actually, I was building a house with spider silk solution before. When doing experiments, I also found a mixing method that can Increase the conductivity of spider silk to the level of silver wire, but the price is even lower than copper wire."

Liel smiled and returned to the table: "If you have similar ideas, Anyone can apply for funding to conduct experiments

But I guess it doesn’t take a genius to come up with such a small idea, and the detailed ideas can be left to other employees.

So - let's get to work, everyone. ”

The pie, short-term goals, and demonstrations are all there, and the uneasiness about the future immediately turns into a clear vision.

It is indeed time to start working.

Hammond raised his hand and said: "Then we go to Africa now? ”

Leal suppressed his smile: "No Frank, your special team is the first batch of operations to transport supplies and personnel from the sea to Tanzania.

The first batch of supplies is provided by Wakanda and the personnel are volunteers. and local people.”

Long-distance transportation is dangerous.

Once you leave the public eye, things become complicated.

Many airlines in the African Union are controlled by foreign capital, but for maritime transport, they at least have their own ships.

"You will cross the ocean in the name of 'Theseus Transportation Company'."

"Speaking of this." Hammond suddenly said, "We are going to become a multinational enterprise. We'd better be in Register an entity internationally to integrate these resources.”

Liel had already thought of this, turned around and wrote the name of the company on the screen:

Atlas.

“We use this name.”

Atlas Group.
