Using remotely controlled drones or intelligent machines capable of autonomous judgment and movement to replace humans in high-risk areas was a fairly traditional reconnaissance method.
However, this approach faced considerable limitations. Wireless signals were severely restricted, especially in underground spaces, while cables limited mobility. Not to mention that in highly complex, harsh environments, sensors such as cameras could become mere decorations, as good as useless.
The same drones and intelligent robots became something else entirely in Cat's Eye's hands. Through sensing and interference mechanisms that operated close to the Material Layer, relatively standardized mechanical structures could fully serve as extensions of Cat's Eye's sensory structure.
Thus, the machines received more precise control signals, while the operator gained Relay Stations that extended her sensing range. As for switching and linking those signals, she only needed to adjust a few parameters on the External Attachment Machine Core.
Every adjustment followed certain established formulas. Once she became familiar with them, it felt like going from Wild Fox Zen to a prestigious orthodox school.
Ronan... Hmm, Dean Wan really was a mysterious guy.
Of course, limited by the complex environment and her own proficiency, the information transmitted back was not always intuitive. Its precision remained open to question, and the commander still needed to make further judgments.
Cat's Eye was merely an emotionless Signal Tower.
At present, the Combat Team's main task remained opening up a forward passageway into the depths of the Underground Labyrinth. It was impossible to fully grasp an underground structure that stretched several kilometers deep, and unexpected incidents arose one after another.
Even with Cat's Eye's early warnings, several small-scale battles still broke out along the way. The enemy included Toothed Crocodiles, as well as some of their usual "partners." Fortunately, the Command Department's assessment had been fairly accurate. The
