As for the good old days he mentioned, they were the days when they secretly went there to collect resources before the Blue Dragon Bloodline Stigmata Wizard arrived. It can be said that the resources produced in that territory helped the Atomic Control Wizard Academy get through the most difficult initial stage.
Have you told anyone else about this?
"No, I'll pretend I didn't find out. No one has mentioned it. I'm just waiting for you, Dean, to come back and report."
"Fine, just forget about it after you tell me."
"Yes, Dean."
Meng Jie reported some more things. After he left with the pile of wizard rings that Leo had given him, Leo was still thinking about the Blue Dragon Bloodline Academy.
Those wizard rings contained resources mined in the Manluo World and Gran World. The resources were of too low a grade for Leo to use; they could only be provided to the academy for development.
The fact that so many Official Wizard are hidden in the Blue Dragon Academy's Wizarding School, most of whom are only at the second or third level, means they were definitely not trained by the academy itself, but were transferred from other academies.
Why bring in so many Official Wizard?
Come and attack your own academy?
There's no need for that. Let alone 500,000, even 100,000 Official Wizard wouldn't be enough for our own academy to withstand their attack.
The low-level wizards of the Atomic Control Academy are no match for absolute power; they would crumble at the slightest provocation.
Meng Jie discovered that the number of Official Wizard exceeded 500,000, so the actual number must be far greater than that.
Having so many Official Wizard in one's territory inevitably leads to war; otherwise, the cost of consuming so many Official Wizard would be considerable.
But who is the opponent?
Could it be that Body Refinement Wizard are about to go to war with Elemental Wizard?
"Never mind all that, it's best not to get into a conflict with them."
Leo gave orders to his school: they could only move within the sphere of influence of the Atomic Control Wizard Academy and were not allowed to cross the boundary; anyone caught doing so would be severely punished.
After resting for several days, Leo began her work.
First, they met with several departments established on the New Earth. All their resources were provided by the academy without limit. Their main task was to explore new research and discoveries by integrating wizarding knowledge with the existing knowledge of the New Earth.
These departments were established when Leo first took control of New Earth, bringing together all the top talents on New Earth, and have always enjoyed the best resources and benefits.
However, after so many years, although there have been some good research and discoveries, they are of no practical use to Leo's current level of Stigmata Wizard and can only be provided to lower-level wizards.
"Dean, in terms of artificial intelligence (AI), we have already reached the level of standard wizards. We can learn and grow autonomously, and through our dedicated research, we can achieve a command system that covers a small world, with zero-latency response at the level of one-thousandth of a millisecond."
"It possesses state-of-the-art computing capabilities in reconnaissance, calculation, simulation, information gathering, combat analysis, and data support."
After all the departments had finished reporting their work, Leo's face remained expressionless, even showing some disappointment. Meanwhile, the AI project leader proudly and loudly reported on his department's achievements.
Sure enough, when Leo heard their results, his expression, which had remained unchanged, showed interest. "Have you taken the test?"
"This conclusion was reached after 157.8 billion tests, using the New Earth and the Gnoll World as test targets," the AI lead proudly stated.
Everyone else had no achievements, only he did, which highlights the value of his results.
"Show me your lab records."
The AI director immediately took out several crystal balls containing data from the wizard's ring, along with a large number of experimental notes.
Leo didn't mind that he presented a lot of experimental data; the more data he presented, the more it demonstrated their dedication to research and development.
With a light tap of his finger, experimental notebooks flashed before Leo's eyes like flowing water, while the data recorded inside the crystal ball rapidly flooded into Leo's brain.
Everyone who came to report stood carefully on both sides, waiting for the dean to review the experimental data of artificial intelligence (AI), not daring to even breathe loudly.
Two days later, Leo finally finished reviewing all their experimental data spanning nearly a thousand years. The artificial intelligence (AI) department had gone through ten generations of leaders since its inception.
Each generation has made significant improvements based on the work of its predecessors, but none of them have quite reached what Leo wanted.
The results reported this time are exactly what the humans of the New Earth initially imagined: by establishing a few transmission satellites outside the plane or planet, information can be spread throughout the entire world via electromagnetic waves of a special frequency.
An intelligent central hub is established by an artificial intelligence (AI) mother brain, connecting all intelligent sub-entities for integrated operation. This concept of connection is similar to a wireless network on Earth.
It could also be said that the artificial intelligence (AI) system they created developed step by step from wireless networks.
Each AI sub-entity can automatically collect information based on the host's environment, transmit it back to the main brain, and after analysis by the main brain, give the most effective commands.
Of course, this is a study of the operating principles of artificial intelligence (AI). In their tests, there are a lot of practical applications, such as collecting information in unfamiliar environments, energy interference tests, and long-distance transmission in the cosmic environment.
Through numerous tests on slaves purchased by the academy, it was found that in actual combat, as long as the slaves followed the calculations and analyses of the artificial intelligence (AI), their combat effectiveness increased by 50% to 90%. When they formed teams, their combat effectiveness could increase several times, or even more than ten times, depending on the number of slaves!
The combat effectiveness of level 2 slaves increases by 30% to 40%, and their combat effectiveness can also be increased several times after they are formed into a military formation!
The combat effectiveness of level 3 slaves increases by 10% to 20%, but their combat effectiveness cannot be increased after they are formed into a military formation.
The AI's super-fast computing power enables perfect coordination in battle formations. In their experiments, it selects the most suitable combat method based on terrain, the number and strength of enemies, and their attack methods.
Furthermore, their absolute and perfect teamwork in battle made them like a perfect machine, and Leo witnessed them kill opponents of higher levels many times.
However, the lower the level, the greater the capabilities that artificial intelligence (AI) can exert. The higher the level, the stronger the life essence, and their own brains are already advanced computers. In this case, artificial intelligence (AI) will change from a dominant position to a supporting position.
As for why combat power cannot be improved when forming a level 3 team, it is because once multiple level 3 energy fields are mixed, it will seriously interfere with the signal transmission of artificial intelligence (AI), rendering the AI completely useless.
If even Level 3 is not enough, then Level 4 is even more out of the question for someone like Leo.
In this respect, this generation of artificial intelligence (AI) has been limited to assistive capabilities that can only be used at a low level.
As for its farthest distance in the universe, it is 1.8 million kilometers. At this distance, a delay of a second can be achieved. Although this is still less than the distance between two planets, it is enough for spacecraft to communicate with planets.
Reaching this level of AI development represents the limit of New Earth, but it's still some distance from what Leo desires.
Interference with high-energy sources cannot be resolved, cross-space transmission is out of the question, and placing satellites outside the world as signal transmission hubs is also not advisable. This means that as long as the enemy destroys the satellites, the artificial intelligence (AI) will be confined to a small area.
The biggest highlight now is its self-growth capability and command capability for large-scale warfare. In the experiment, the largest command size exceeded 20 million, while using less than 10% of the computing resources.
Looking at the expectant face of the AI head, Leo smiled and praised, "Excellent! Your results have exceeded my expectations. I will reward you handsomely."
"Your department will be rewarded with the equivalent of 100,000 energy crystals. Each researcher involved in the AI development will receive at least 100 energy crystals, and each person will be granted command of a Level 1 Gulu Beast. In addition, your AI development department will have lifetime command of ten Level 2 Gulu Beast. The Gnoll World will allocate you a 1,000 square kilometer plot of land for your use."
"Thank you, Dean."
A series of rewards rained down, and the head of the artificial intelligence (AI) was so excited he almost jumped for joy. No matter which reward Leo offered, they all far exceeded his expectations as First-Level Wizard.
One hundred thousand energy crystals! Their department hasn't received this much resource allocation in hundreds of years.
Not to mention the individual rewards. Their daily expenses and resource consumption are reimbursed by the department. Now with so many additional rewards, their families could produce another Official Wizard.
And the 1,000 square kilometers of land in the Gnoll World —they simply can't use it all!!
The other department leaders standing nearby were incredibly envious of their colleagues who were making a fortune. They wished they could have so many energy crystals.
"Go find Hu Jianxing. Your AI can link with his mecha, and you can work together to develop some accessories, which will have a greater impact."
"Yes, Dean."
Leo glanced at the other project managers whose eyes were red with envy. This was exactly the effect he wanted—a case of spending a fortune to acquire talent.
"Each of your departments will go to the academy to collect a reward of one thousand energy crystals. Go back and continue your efforts. As long as you achieve results, the academy will never be stingy with its rewards."
"Yes, Dean."
After the people in charge of the R&D department left, Leo picked up the experimental research data on artificial intelligence (AI) again.
They have indeed pushed artificial intelligence (AI) to its limits under existing conditions; it is quite remarkable that it can withstand a certain degree of energy interference.
They simply haven't seen a battlefield and don't know how crazy the energy storms are. Current artificial intelligence (AI) placed on the battlefield simply cannot transmit information to the mother brain; it can only evolve as a separate individual within its offspring, thus having limited effectiveness.
