Chapter Seventy-Nine: Approaching
Some people like to myth the power and exaggerate what they don't understand, which is actually a manifestation of fear and awe. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
For example, mortals are to gods, and reincarnations are to masters. There is always a large part of them who are willing to regard those who are actually completely incomprehensible as omnipotent, or even as absolute omniscient.
Indeed, it is a miracle that the Juggernaut can send reincarnated beings to different planes, so why can't it control certain people or forces within the plane?
Ling Qi was lucky enough to be a minority among the reincarnators, rejecting such a naΓ―ve and seemingly credible inference, not only because he was the first batch of the chosen ones, but also because he was lucky enough to meet some people or things that the master could not see through, as well as props, and he knew that it was wrong.
Whether it's because it's so powerful that it ignores the ants at its feet.
Or is it not strong enough to do everything in the absolute sense.
After all, it ignores something, and most of the current changes can be traced, and even a direct connection between cause and effect can be found, and this is important! This proves that the law of cause and effect has not been broken, which means that the logical inference still has a great deal of credibility! If the change only arises from the thought of a certain existence, it is called unpredictable.
"Probably, Mr. Yes has already seen through this situation, but it won't say. As for Zeroβ"
In the middle of the night, the ranks did not stop like ordinary troops, but increased the speed of the march.
During the day, purely to accommodate Ling Qi, it would take hours to walk less than a quarter of the distance. Otherwise, with this fully mechanized force, there is no reason why the march would be slower than the Enclave's mixed corps retreating.
Sure enough, it was not yet midnight, and Camp McCarran was already in sight.
It resembles a small city, surrounded by a wall two or three meters high, enclosing the entire camp in the center, looking as if it were a town rather than a camp, and certainly not as grand as a fortress in New Vegas.
Ling Qi's previous attack time with the NRC was the next morning, that is, tomorrow morning, half a day earlier than the original plan.
Since the two sides did not reach a closer agreement, they decided to fight their own battles, which of course made the already binding agreement even more weak, and Ling Qi simply came earlier.
In his bones, he didn't believe in the NRC at all, just as he didn't believe in the Enclave, both sides were his enemies.
"Zero, send out the sentinels, and we'll set up camp at the abandoned station ahead. In addition, send a second-generation sentry to collect information around Camp McCarron, remember to focus on stability and don't rush in. β
The night was deep, making Ling Qi feel as if he was possessed by a demon god, and his whole body was full of explosive power.
At this time, he was not ready to rush recklessly, and even he sensed that there was a group of mutated creatures entrenched in the abandoned station about seven or eight kilometers away from Camp Macallan, and he did not mean to do it himself.
Bloodthirsty thoughts, though disturbing reason to some extent, are not serious enough to turn him into a madman who will kill all living things at sight.
Killing intent can make him fearless and crazy in battle, but only if he is already in combat mode and indulging in the thrill of life siphoning.
Now, he couldn't be sure if the mutated creatures were wild or the lackeys of the Enclave, so he could only suppress the restlessness in his veins.
The team stopped in the wasteland about 500 meters away from the abandoned station, dozens of bread robots opened their chests in unison, which was the location of the display screen, and automatically separated to the sides, and one by one the mechanical spiders less than a foot long crawled out and began to spread in all directions!
This is the third generation of the Block Bread Robot, which is weaker in combat and more useful!
The first generation of bread robots can only be used as guards, the second generation was developed by him to self-detonate function, and the third generation is the brainchild of Mr. Yes, who simply used them as troop carriers and transit stations.
Today's Mechanical Legion is very different from the House period, except for a small number of mechanical attendants who have been retained, and all the sausage robots have been reinvented. And the cube bread robots are no longer the front-line warriors, and even the guards in the city have begun to turn into new mechanical creatures. The mecha-like pure skeleton structure allows these newly baked fighters to embody the advantages of mechanized troops more than their predecessors!
At present, the only ones that have been preserved are the mechanical scorpion and the humanoid mechanical warrior, the former is the crystallization of super-era technology that House made from a mysterious place known as the "Great Mountain Range", and the latter is the work of his life, and even Mr. Yes has to admit that it is difficult to greatly optimize these two major classes.
Even regarding the mechanical scorpion, Ling Qi and Mr. Hao Hao once misunderstood its purpose, but fortunately, it was not without benefit to dismantle this mechanical creature with unknown principles, and the Sentinel Spider was one of the results.
The sound of Suosuo quickly died down, and the lightweight cube bread robot took out the only attack weapon placed behind it, multiple linkage shotguns, and began to advance towards the abandoned station in groups of five.
The remaining seventy-six mechanical creatures, like Ling Qi, listened indifferently to the distant sound of gunfire and the neighing of some animal, and the exchange of fire lasted less than three minutes before stopping.
According to the news from the front, it was just a group of ordinary mutant lizards, except for two transport robots that were particularly large and weak, and after paying the price of scrapping, they managed to annihilate the enemy.
"Against ordinary mutant creatures, there will be damage?"
Ling Qi was a little surprised, the combat power of the mutant lizard, he still remembered it vividly, it was a mutated creature at the bottom of the wasteland food chain.
"The two leaders are second-mutated flame lizards, which are three times the size of ordinary mutant lizards and can breathe fire!"
Zero explained, explaining the cause of the battle damage.
There is no doubt that the Bomb Gang, who are at the bottom of the Mech Legion, will definitely be placed as arsenal guards, as New Vegas is no longer the New Vegas of the past.
Ling Qi nodded, still cautiously ordering the nearby sentries to conduct a second search of the station to make sure that there were no eyes and ears hidden in the darkness, and then let the troops move.
After a high sense of reconfirmation, Ling Qi had to admit that the Enclave seemed to have really given up this natural outpost in front of the door, which was another unexpected move. If he were replaced, at least a battalion of troops would be stationed in this place.
The station is very dilapidated, except for two three-storey buildings that are still intact, including the parking lot and various surrounding facilities.
This is just a medium-sized long-distance station, Ling Qi judged so, and soon came to the middle of the parking lot, where there were already mechanical warriors dragging over the two corpses of the second-mutated flame lizard, side by side, for him to inspect.
Standing in front of the corpse of the flame lizard, Ling Qi had to admit that Mr. Yes's upgrade of the mechanical legion was still very successful, and the firepower of the link-action shotgun was definitely much stronger than that of the automatic rifle.
Ling Qi, who is close to 1.9 meters tall, stands in front of the corpse like a naughty boy next to Roshan.
The height of ordinary mutant lizards is about 1.2 to 1.4 meters, and these two lizards will not be much smaller than heavy mechas!
"How many mutant lizards are there in this group. β
Ling Qi asked lightly, and walked around the corpse, and found that the second-mutated lizards were not as powerful as they looked in addition to their size greatly increasing and their defense and strength increased simultaneously, which could be seen from the degree of damage to their bodies.
As for Spitfire, it is a rare ability that ordinary lizards can obtain after their initial mutation, and it is not unique to secondary mutations. The mutant fire-breathing lizard was collectively known as the salamander in the past, and there is an even rarer golden lizard, which is covered in radiation, and it is said that a drop of its blood can cause severe radiation sickness.
Flame lizards and golden lizards are both mutant lizards, belonging to the side branches, in addition to their special natural abilities, the height and size are similar to ordinary mutant lizards, and the strength defense is slightly weaker, because it is too rare, it is also the prey that the wasteland rangers dream of. The skin of the salamander and the teeth of the golden lizard are all rare raw materials.
The two giant salamanders had been battered, and the larger one had been shot in the head, with half of its head remaining.
"There were 32 of them, including 4 young lizards, and all but these two were ordinary mutant lizards, in addition to some lizard eggs. β
In a short period of time, Zero had already counted the results, even the number of lizard eggs, but it wondered if Ling Qi would be interested in it, so it skipped it.
"It seems that the secondary mutation may also allow ordinary lizards to gain special abilities, unless this is a group of mutated lizards and mixed lizards led by salamanders, but the number is too small, it shouldn't be. As for those eggs, leave a few as mockemins and smash the rest. There are also lizard ribs, which I heard taste good. β
Ling Qi suddenly smelled the smell of barbecue, and couldn't help but feel amused when he thought that since he became the owner of New Vegas, the food was not as good as wandering the wasteland.
Then he felt that that was his nature, and since there were more things for him to think about and deal with, the light meal had to be accepted. This was reassuring to him, or at least it proved that he was not a man who was purely entertaining.
Without having to do anything, Zero began to assign tasks to the mechanical soldiers, detailing Ling Qi's orders.
Ling Qi left the parking lot and walked towards the only relatively intact building, which should have been simply cleaned up, and he didn't need to mention this kind of thing.
Uhββ
There was a flameburst sound behind him, and he didn't have to think about it to know that it was the mechanical soldier who was dealing with the corpse of the mutated creature, which was more noticeable in the darkness, but Ling Qi didn't stop it, he felt that the Enclave really didn't care about the situation outside the camp.
The smell of barbecue in the air was heavier, but there was also a smell of burning, and Ling Qi walked away quickly.
A quarter of an hour later, through the intelligence gathered by the front-line sentinels, Ling Qi confirmed his suspicions.
The radio communications jamming that had been hanging around Camp McCarran yesterday had disappeared at some point.
Of course, the enemy was still in that besieged city, and the fact that a dozen mechanical spiders burst into the wall from all directions and never sent back a signal is the best proof of this.
They disappeared silently, and even a certain sentinel who had been ordered to turn back as soon as he stepped into it was silent, as if the walls were not separated by the same plane, and the back had become an invisible bottomless abyss, which made the visible wall a little more intensely dark.
"There are no automatic sentinels, no guards, just closed gates. β
This is the result of external detection, which cannot be scanned further by the radar.
Ling Qi groaned, sitting on the sofa shelf where there was still a lot of dust after cleaning, and rejecting one speculation and battle plan after another.
The best way to deal with this trickery is to tear down the walls and gates, and follow the sentinel's detection left and right, which is not thick.
"I felt like I should go over and see for myself. β
Ling Qi said this, he didn't think that at night, there would be anything that could make him disappear silently, and nightmares would not work!
"I don't think so, and if you insist, I would advise not to set foot on the enemy's home turf. β
Zero put forward his opinion, which was more sincere, and Ling Qi had to be cautious.
"It's like a monster, dormant and sleeping. Anyone who tries to provoke it is at risk of a lethal counterattack, and we should let the NRC go first. β
Zero said again, which surprised Ling Qi.
"What's wrong? Isn't it?"
Sensing Ling Qi's strangeness, Zero asked inexplicably.
"Nothing, just noticed that you're getting more and more interesting. β
"So Zero, is there a way for people to ignore the spatial distance in your database and appear directly in other places? In other words, is there a way to make people evaporate instantaneously without producing too drastic energy fluctuations. β
Ling Qi didn't give too much warning or vigilance to the changes in Zero, he had already discovered that this clone also had a tendency to be humanized.
But it is different from Mr. Yes because its personality is naturally formed, not given by anyone.
It's like a pet whose pet suddenly has a complete and independent personality, then its owner will definitely be wary, because it is no longer the same as it used to be. If it naturally gets smarter, its owner will probably be happy.
The multiple restrictions attached to Zero when it was created are also the reason why Ling Qi trusts it, and it is the largest one. And from its changes, Ling Qi could also see the reason why Mr. Yes was unwilling to separate more clones!
Mr. Yes was originally special, standing on the edge of a cliff, taking a step forward or a rainbow cloud bridge or an abyss hell, and he chose the shortcut that he thought was safer.
"My database is only one-fifth as full as the source, and if it's the Enclave, I guess there is a question about you. β
Zero didn't know what Ling Qi was thinking, and said uncertainly.
