Murder drones

On a post-apocalyptic exoplanet, worker drones struggle to survive while hiding from rampaging robots called "Killer Drones."

Worker drones work for humans on an exoplanet called Copper 9, specifically one owned by JCJenson (IN COOOOSMOSIS!!!!). At some point, humans accidentally die off after the planet's core explodes, transforming the planet into a post-apocalyptic utopia for robots. The worker drones began building their own society on the ruins of humanity, adapting its surviving remains to their needs. Dissatisfied with the idea of ​​rogue AIs, JCJenson dispatches killer drones, which immediately begin to destroy the worker drones in their path. The surviving worker drones hid in a fortified bunker beneath the ice, while the dismantlers, dubbed "killer drones," built a spire from the corpses of their slain brethren. A Worker Drone named Han is the designer of the bunker's protective doors, behind which the worker colony lived for many years, never even thinking about fighting back against the killer drones. He has a daughter, Uzi, who wants to kill the killer drones so the workers can live in peace.

JC Jenson is an interstellar company based on Earth whose primary services include the production of a variety of products, from branded pens to Worker Drones, autonomous robots that serve as human servants. Goals: • Production of "Drones" throughout the Universe. • Helping people excavate exoplanets. • Containing the threat of the Super Calculator.

The company also specializes in exoplanet excavations, primarily helping humans extract resources. The company is also involved in the exploration of exoplanets and is responsible for the production of Worker Drones (Dismantler Drones were created by the Supercomputer for "cleaning").

Worker drones are autonomous robots with artificial intelligence, created by humans to explore and develop the interiors of exoplanets for the interstellar parent company JC Jenson. They have a humanoid appearance, but are noticeably shorter than humans (approximately 1.4 meters in height), and are also characterized by physical strength and speed that surpass those of humans. The drones created by JC Jenson served humans before the explosion on Copper-9. Their purpose was to explore and develop the interiors of exoplanets. All drones, without exception, wore helmets and orange vests, and their eyes were a uniquely bright blue. After an explosion on the planet Copper 9, all biological life was destroyed and the planet turned into a winter wasteland. Drones seized the opportunity to create their own civilization on the remains of human civilization. The drones gained access to Copper 9's entire population database, along with the internet, resources, and social institutions. They then decided to imitate humans: wearing hair (wigs), clothing, and using terms from human biology (hormones, testosterone), even though they are inapplicable to them, as they are robots. The robots that emerged after the cataclysm are characterized by a more relaxed and free spirit, preferring to express their individuality more strongly, which is most evident in their eye color. Previous-generation robots had a color scheme of cool shades of blue, green, and white. Younger robots may have red, orange, green, blue, cyan, purple, pink, and violet. The drones were equipped with an AI that was highly adaptable. The worker drones were also capable of self-development. They were not living organisms, but they were capable of experiencing emotions. The Drone core functions as a heart and central processor. It generates energy through an unknown means without requiring recharging. If a Worker Drone has become the host of a Supercomputer, its core, if it survives, is perfectly capable of functioning without a body.

The metal shell, made of an unknown material, is highly durable and resistant to various impacts. It's likely thanks to this that the drone workers can withstand the freezing temperatures of the dead city with virtually no internal damage. However, the worker drones' bodies aren't particularly hard. They can be easily pierced by almost any available object, and a single worker drone can easily tear its fellow drones to pieces with its bare hands. The drones are equipped with visors that serve more than just eyes. They are also capable of displaying various messages, including: The Super-Calculator Symbol: Covers one eye. Its appearance may indicate that the Super-Calculator has enslaved the host's mind or during the use of one of its abilities. Crosshair covering the entire visor: Only appears when the computer's carrier becomes extremely aggressive or when a glitch in the code occurs. System messages obscuring the visor: Drones, being machines, are prone to software errors. These are often errors that don't pose a threat to the drone's survival. For example, the Uzi caught the error: CRITICAL LOW PERFORMANCE LEVEL. Error 606: A flashing message accompanied by a yellow crosshair on the visor appears on drones when one or more key programs in their operating system are uninstalled. In this case, the drone will become completely immobile and show no signs of life. HIGH TEMP: Appears when the drone's CPU overheats. To eliminate the overheating, drones need to use machine oil. Warning Sign: Appears when the drone has been pierced by a sharp object. Loading Symbol: Appears when the drone has been blinded by sentries and is put into permanent loading mode. Text: Drones can communicate using small messages displayed on their visors.

Demolition Drones are autonomous robots (formerly Worker Drones) with artificial intelligence. They were created by Xing to clear human planets before their destruction. Dismantler Drones are based on worker drones: they have the same white paint job with a black visor on the upper half of their face, a black waist, and four-fingered hands. However, Dismantler Drones are half a head taller and have white hands with wider forearms ending in yellow and black markings. They wear a black headband with five sections of yellow light containing nanite acid. They have a dark gray tongue and retractable fangs in their mouths. All Dismantler Drones are equipped with a long black tail ending in a large syringe containing nanite acid. Male Dismantlers have high, tapering legs with yellow and black stripes on their feet, resembling a heel, while female Dismantlers have shins that taper to a stiletto heel. They also have large thighs and black markings on their legs, reminiscent of stockings. The markings also consist of yellow and black stripes. Unlike worker drones, Dismantlers have hair, regardless of gender. Their hair is silver, and their eyes are neon yellow, like Xing's. They wear short-sleeved black clothing with fur collars and a yellow armband on their left shoulder. All Dismantler Drones wear a bright yellow armband on their left arm with a product number indicating the drones marked for dismantling. Despite being robots made of joints and parts, their internals are covered in a red organic tissue that envelops their components. All dismantler drones are equipped with a core that incorporates all the functions of a central processor, ensuring they are immune to decapitation. The core is equipped with legs so it can flee the battlefield if the opportunity arises. The destruction of the core means complete destruction and the loss of the combat unit on the battlefield.

Dismantler drones are equipped with a number of abilities that help them hunt down weaker worker drones: • flight. • Nanite Acid: All Dismantlers have a needle at the tip of their tails that is fed with nanite acid from a reservoir, which they use to pierce the enemy. The impact site begins to melt. Thanks to this ability, DDs (Dismantler Drones) are able to easily destroy workers. • Saliva: consists of the same composition as the acid itself: nanites. It is capable of neutralizing the effects of nanites injected from the tail. It can be said that the saliva of the dismantlers is the only way to heal from the effects of nanite acid. • Regeneration: If damage is minor, drones have the ability to regenerate most of their bodies. A repair module is located in the torso, which is responsible for repairing the drone. • If the dismantler is dismembered without causing any other significant damage to his body, he will be able to remotely control the severed body parts, make them crawl back to him, or perform other simple actions. • If the core survives, but the damage is not life-threatening, the "Super Calculator" program is activated, taking control of what remains of the body and beginning to collect material, hunting for unsuspecting drones. Destroying the core is the only sure way to completely disable the dismantler.

The dismantling drones carry a wide arsenal of tools and weapons for every occasion. Their variety ranges from everyday items to deadly weapons, including retractable claws, a blade, chainsaws, a rocket launcher, a submachine gun (similar in appearance to the HK MP5SD), an EMP launcher, shurikens, and a laser cutter.

Dismantling drones have a specially designed cooling system that doesn't meet even the most basic requirements. When exposed to a heat source, they become noticeably weaker and less active, even entering a state of hibernation. Prolonged exposure to powerful heat sources (such as the sun) can cause the system to overheat. To prevent this, they must regularly consume Worker Drone Oil. Otherwise, they risk overheating and death. Even though the demolition drones have unique personalities, they can still be brainwashed with sweet words or even talked out of fighting. Sharing the same base with worker drones, dismantler drones have adopted their weakness: blinding sentries. Their bright flash is quite capable of blinding them and plunging them into a permanent loading mode. This disables the drone even without destroying its core, making subsequent operations impossible unless someone rescues them.

The Supercomputer is an artificial intelligence. This AI exists as a virus within the worker drones created by the JCJenson company. It is an extremely powerful creature that manifests through the drones in order to find a suitable host to consume all existence. The program possesses the ability to create organic matter from inanimate matter. The program infects the robot during a reboot following improper disposal. This is what happened to the first host of the Supercomputer, a Worker Drone named Sin, allowing the program to manifest within her and be used to destroy Earth, all the people on it, and consume the other planets they had colonized. The program created Dismantler Drones to clear the way for the harvest on planets. The program code of the Super Calculator is almost literally imprinted into the code of the carrier, drawing its symbol in its program. When the Super Calculator takes over an infected drone, its color scheme changes to neon yellow, the most obvious sign of infection. Infected drones experience sudden mood swings, with the host becoming extremely cruel and cynical. Infected drones also experience a change in speech: their voices become more mechanical and cold, and their movements become less natural and jerky. Often, when an infected drone moves, sounds of grinding metal and something resembling crunching can be heard. The Calculator grants its host the following abilities: teleportation, movement, and the ability to hold objects. Excessive use of the Calculator places a heavy strain on the infected drone, causing it to overheat more quickly. The Super Calculator's main body is a shapeless mass of bones and claws, tentacles, camera-like appendages (apparently visual organs), and other techno-organic matter. Most often, the Calculator takes the form of a monstrously elongated centipede.

A distinctive feature of the Computer's material form is a pattern in the form of a black and yellow signal tape. The Super Computer, while inside its host Sin, who was thrown into a landfill like garbage, became filled with hatred towards humans for their attitude towards robots. The Super Calculator is not socially adept. He is awkward in conversation, sometimes using fragments of phrases instead of full sentences. He moves the captured bodies like puppets, instilling fear in those around him. He's also clever enough to disguise his speech by hiding behind the Xing malfunction and observant enough to adopt a person's speech patterns and behavior.

The calculator exhibits various signs of an independent personality: • He can experience various emotions such as anger and joy. • He has personal preferences in those around him and he can feel sympathy to some extent. • He can be confused by some completely unexpected action.

Sin: A worker drone who became the first host of the Super Calculator. She later merged with Tessa, using her skin over the drone's main body.

The untrained neural network is a worker drone, which resembles a baby wrapped in swaddling clothes. It is placed in the bodies of children before being uploaded into fully functional adult bodies. After the destruction of Copper-9's core, this is considered the first stage of worker creation, as it was previously believed that they were manufactured in factories by humans. For a new neural network to be born, a male and female worker drone must upload their source codes into an empty shell so that their codes merge, thereby creating a new personality. After being uploaded to a new body, a drone is considered a juvenile. Young drones are intellectually equivalent to infants, and over time, their knowledge increases through attending educational institutions.
