Huaxia Capital, Deep Sea Supercomputing Technology Service Center.

No matter where you look, this appears to be an unremarkable supercomputing center. It's just that few people know the underground base here is also responsible for the deployment, communication, and management of the entire deep-sea unmanned cluster.

This can be considered a new unit emerging from the development of artificial intelligence. Previously it would have been labor-intensive, because quite a lot of people were really needed.

Especially intelligence analysts.

The machines work tirelessly throughout the year, and with the increasing number of carriers deployed, they've already been divided into multiple zones. These robots work diligently all the time, so the control center here naturally requires someone on duty at every post 24 hours a day. Ensuring immediate response to the situation awareness of all unmanned clusters in all distributed areas.

Suddenly, someone exclaimed in the quiet operations room: "Oh my god, did the CZ2W15163 and CZ2W36521 that have been out of contact for two months just re-broadcast? Wait a minute, the message was sent three days ago from the Gulf of Saint Lawrence?"

Although carriers have self-decision-making abilities, under normal circumstances, they will contact this control center every 48 hours.

If encountering irresistible forces or other tasks, carriers that have not contacted the control center for more than 48 hours will, upon completing their mission or through other carriers in nearby sea areas, send back a security code to the control center at the earliest opportunity.

Ensuring their online status in the control center.

Generally, carriers not reporting to the control center for over a week will be reported missing. Thus, the control center must submit a report and then follow the procedure to send a simplified command stored on all satellites responsible for carrier communications.

This command will automatically be sent to the missing carriers when the lost carriers connect with the satellite signal in the future.

Two general scenarios: If the carrier receives the signal while its internal decision-making device and logical judgment abilities are still intact, it continues online operation; if it no longer has autonomous decision-making awareness, it directly "self-destructs."

To prevent collateral damage, this self-destruction is just the internally reserved small amount of energy damaging the internal classified precision structures and data, not causing much harm to the outside. Yet it provides the maximum level of confidentiality.

After all, these things operate underwater year-round, encountering anything is possible. Lost contact, scrapped, all normal occurrences.

But this time the situation is very unusual.

Under normal circumstances, two carriers definitely wouldn't suddenly be out of contact for two months, and the data being reported back is fragmented.

"No way? What's the situation? Could it be a higher priority order? It doesn't look like they were instructed to go to the Atlantic, right? Were the routes synchronized over?"

"Yes, the last time they went offline, they were staying in the Pacific Ocean east of Dongsheng Island, stayed there for about a week, then spent three days reaching the Bering Sea, spent two days at the Bering Strait, then entered the Arctic Ocean, all the way to Baffin Bay and stayed at Davis Strait for another week.

Then quickly passed through the Labrador Sea to the Gulf of Saint Lawrence, by this analysis, their next destination should be... damn... they've headed to the North American East Coast? What's their business there?"

Already late at night, after a few staff members exchanged uneasy looks, they quickly followed the procedure for emergency reporting, despite the big shots with permission being at rest.

After all, it was somewhat a significant matter.

In the middle of the night, the entire control center got busy.

Just because such things are controlled by artificial intelligence, as long as there was someone on top, it would be enough to let the imagination run wild.

No way? What era is it, still running over there?

Just like that, the two carriers that were missing for two months suddenly went back online and transmitted delayed messages, erasing everyone's sleepiness.

Luckily, two hours later, a phone call put an end to the speculation.

"CZ2W15163 and CZ2W36521, alongside the affiliated six hundred explorers, are executing an A-grade task, you just need to keep records."

Oh, A-grade task, then that's fine.

...

United States, New York, Manhattan Island.

It has become the financial center of the United States, even the world, thanks to its advantageous conditions.

For example, it is near the sea with the world-famous natural deep-water Port of New York, together with Wall Street, the world financial barometer. Standing on a high building on Fifth Avenue, casually throwing down a brick isn't hitting a tourist, it is likely hitting an employee or even a big shot of a financial institution.

No choice, too many headquarters of multinational financial companies are nearby. This makes Manhattan deservedly a gathering place for wealthy people. Upper East Side, Upper West Side, Tribeca... luxury apartments, grand buildings, and various superior life facilities abound, enough to be loved at first sight.

So seeing problems, a comprehensive view is needed.

If homeless people who lose hope in life visit places like the Upper East Side more often, they might rekindle hope for life. But for the homeless, crossing that invisible boundary is indeed difficult.

This is probably the most magical thing about the United States. The tossed US dollars can even produce a physical isolation effect, an invisible wall separates people of different classes into two distinct places. Even on a small island of just 60 square kilometers.

But with many wealthy people, nearby entertainment facilities are naturally abundant. Museums, high-class theaters, and countless upscale restaurants can greatly enrich the lives of the wealthy.
