Chapter 80: Phantom?
How much is that, Mr. Yes, a fifth of the total amount of data in the database! Ling Qi couldn't calculate it with his relatively rudimentary brain, but he knew that it must be a huge amount of data, so he decided to listen carefully to what Zero had to say. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
A few minutes later, Ling Qi once again admitted that his overestimation of Zero was still far from enough.
If some of his words and deeds would make ordinary people unaware, then Zero's theories are a fantasy in myths and tales for him.
"Ahem, you mean, the other party is just suspicious. If you really want to do what I think, time travel or something, you have to master all the space compression and folding techniques of the Brotherhood of Steel, study for another hundred years, and then rely on more coincidences, to do it?"
Ling Qi's words were full of disbelief.
Mr. Yes also said that if it was the Enclave, maybe there would be a way to do it, and he thought that the other party understood what he meant. As a result, it only refers to the latter problem, the method of "instant evaporation", and it is just a trick similar to the surface of magic, and it is a conspiracy that cannot be put on the table.
Is it really that hard to move space?
If there is a space compression for the Brotherhood of Steel in this world, why can't other more powerful organizations master more advanced technology!
"You misunderstood what I meant, I mean to make people or things evaporate instantly, with the current level of science and technology in the world, if you want to do it, the biggest possibility is the ones I cited. β
"And as for space technology, such as space travel and space traps that you are talking about, it is really difficult to apply them to life and war. Because I am not talking about a chance or a possibility, but if there is a situation that will inevitably arise and ordinary people can participate in it, it can only be the result of the maturity of space technology. β
"Maybe some of the words we just said will be hard for you to accept, but that's the truth. The process of scientific research is full of contingencies, but the result is inevitable. For example, no one knows why a nuclear bomb appeared, but it appeared, and it will appear. But before it appears, who can predict when it will appear?"
"Miracles cannot be expected, so I'm just using what I already have to speculate on the appearance of another miracle, which is full of uncertainty, and you can't doubt it or deny it. β
"But I still say that, more than you might have guessed, I'm still convinced that the Enclave was just using some kind of radio wave to paralyze our sentinels in an instant. With our technological power, we can also imitate it, and I think it's more like the 'truth', isn't it?"
Also derived from rational and logical thinking, Zero tends to focus on the information already in the database, while Ling Qi will always subconsciously use the divergent thinking unique to human beings - YY.
"Forget it, I think you're right, I didn't want to argue with you about academics. I just want to know, if the enemy has that... Technology ahead of its time, can you..."
Before Ling Qi's words fell, Zero had already given an answer.
"No, you can't. β
Its answer was categorical, which made Ling Qi speechless, and he hadn't even told it what exactly he wanted it to do, although with his character, the unspoken words were already obvious.
Shaking his head to end the speculation about the enemy's secrets, Ling Qi decided to resist the desire to fight in his heart and let the NRC go to the striker first. In fact, if it wasn't Zero in front of him, but Mr. Yes, he would even have to ask a rhetorical question. If the enemy is just using intrigues and tricks to set up a suspicious formation, then why can't he be allowed to find out? Under the cover of night, his strength is not inferior to the Emperor's Claw. So, what is it actually worried about? Electromagnetic waves that specifically target mechanical units?
The time spent waiting was not wasted, and under Zero's guidance, Ling Qi began to absorb a lot of knowledge and techniques about martial arts. In his usual battles, he basically relied on superhuman physical fitness and swordsmanship skills that the Lord recognized but never studied in depth. In fact, apart from the numbers and skills that appear on the stat list, he is not a qualified fighter at all.
This world is worthy of a world of long-standing scientific and technological civilization, tens of thousands of years of time in the high magic high-tech plane is pitiful, but it is unimaginable that Ling Qi has been a long time. In such a long historical development, all kinds of local hand-to-hand combat techniques have their own uniqueness, and the only common drawback is that they have not been recognized by the master, of course, it may also be because Ling Qi's mastery of various techniques is still too low, and he is not even basic proficient.
It was the high talent that made him able to use his skills to kill faster, but it also made it difficult for him to accurately estimate his true mastery of skills. Or will most of the fighting skills be fused into the existing basic abilities such as swordsmanship and footwork, Ling Qi is uncertain.
The only thing he was sure of was that his combat power was indeed increasing with the times, although slowly, but he could feel it.
Before dawn, Zero received the agreed attack signal from the NRC, which made Ling Qi, who was looking forward to it, suspicious of Dou Sheng, they were so relieved that they didn't even send one or two representatives to "supervise" it, or did they think of finding someone to come over and bring shame on themselves?
In any case, since it is an agreed joint attack, even if they are fighting separately, they must always have a pre-war meeting, after all, they are also friendly forces invited by the other side. Such a casual attitude of not even sending a liaison officer is to say that without his help, they can fight well, then they have been sick and given such a rich reward, nearly half of the supplies have even been sent to the warehouse in New Vegas.
Boom!
The shaking of the earth and the red clouds rising from the north obscured the first rays of dawn, and Ling Qi listened to the latest information that Zero had collected from the second-generation sentinels, and couldn't help but feel that NRC's behavior was incredible!
"Don't wait for us to reply, this is an impatient attack?"
"How many troops do you think they dispatched? A Ranger regiment of more than 400 people, a kinetic armored unit of more than 100 people, twenty or thirty rocket armored vehicles, forty or fifty tanks, and a dozen or so helicopter gunships, an overwhelming number of ordinary soldiers, and a flood of artillery fire?"
Ling Qi was almost suspicious of his ears, as if he was listening to a story, so-and-so single-handedly challenged ten thousand troops in front of the battle, and beheaded eight thousand in one charge.
With this level of military power, is this really an NRC that has been hollowed out by the Enclave?
Not to mention, the Ranger Regiment alone exceeded the total number of Ranger claimed by the local NRC.
Not to mention a full 400 people, as long as half of this middle and high-level troops are sent to New Vegas, Ling Qi will have to use the turret in advance to counterattack, and even invest a few humanoid mechanical warriors, otherwise it may not be able to stop it!
Rumble!
There was another loud bang, accompanied by a few mushroom clouds blooming gorgeously.
Because it was too far from the battlefield, four or five kilometers away from a huge camp, only the movement of the miniature nuclear bomb explosion could be clearly transmitted.
"Let's go, let's see!"
Gathering this mechanical force of less than 100 people, who originally thought it was an Austrian aid, Ling Qi decided to pass a scene even if he made up the numbers, at least to see the Enclave's hole cards and the madness of the NRC, this kind of dog-eat-dog scene is rare.
Of course, it's not just the Enclave that he's worried about now, the NRC that has come out of the nest may not be satisfied with just a single Camp Macallan!
"Wait, Ling Qi, there's two updates that I think you need to know. β
Just as the high-spirited man was about to take his minions to plague his allies before the sun shone on his might, Zero suddenly stopped him.
"What?"
Ling Qi looked impatient.
After a brief report, Ling Qi's face was first disapproving, and then showed full solemnity.
"What is this ??!!?"
This is a short film, formed by the projection of the PP boy, in just ten seconds, a second-generation spider sentry who has gone deepest into the battlefield has just teleported back!
The artillery fire in the sky was really like a storm. As soon as the war began, the enemy and us should not bombard each other as if they were at their own expense.
Following the tragedy beneath the walls of New Vegas, the NRC's infantry were once again gloriously reduced to a pile of manure on the wasteland.
What really surprised Ling Qi was not the violent firepower of both sides and the heavy casualties of the infantry, but the panoramic view of the front of the camp taken in the ninth second of the picture!
A 100-metre-long wall had been bombed into ruins by tanks and planes, but instead of Camp McCarron, full of craters and smoke, it was a calm military base that seemed to have never happened!
At this time, several of the fastest Rangers had already arrived in front of the ruins of the wall, jumped out and "disappeared" into the calm Macallan camp in an instant.
Only then did Ling Qi notice that after the countless warheads landed above the wall, they seemed to be still flying far away, but in fact they didn't fall at all, they disappeared from everyone's sight before they exploded!
This is not weird, the top of the fence repeatedly "brushed" out of thin air rows of rockets, with pieces of screams, rumbling on the battlefield, I don't know how many NRC soldiers buried their bones.
It's as if all the outsiders can see is an illusion, vainly attacking the non-existent camp Macallan, while the illusion itself is not as peaceful as it appears, and the attackers have paid a heavy price for it!
"No! Maybe it's just a big stereoscopic projection, like a trick!"
Beginning to learn to think from Zero's point of view, Ling Qi came to the same conclusion as those attackers, that the enemy was behind the false projection!
If I could have shot a few more seconds, maybe the answer would have been revealed in advance, but unfortunately this lucky sentry didn't succeed in luck, a green military boot with a thick sole covered the screen, and then darkness...
"Spider Sentinel, trampled to death??"
Ling Qi's eyes puffed out.
"It should be NRC officers, and some NRC officers have such strength. β
Zero calmly explained, as for the other news he was going to report, it seemed to be a matter of course.
Messages came from the rear that the NRC's convoys were backwatering and that they seemed to have received the latest instructions to refuse to pay for the pre-dawn deal yesterday. It's a pity that these people don't know much about the style of New Vegas, and they were all killed by Mr. Yes's order, and the second batch of goods was still sent to the warehouse in an orderly manner!
"That is, yesterday morning, the NRC was not so strong. But last night, no, it should have been this morning, after the first shipment arrived in New Vegas, they suddenly got support from headquarters, which is why they felt that our help was dispensable?"
Ling Qi gave a reasonably reasonable speculation, and Zero agreed.
"It should be like this, but they will definitely pay for their arrogance and arrogance!"
Ling Qi didn't care about turning his face with the NRC now, but he didn't have the certainty of Zero, as if the NCR would suffer a bigger loss after the strength of the NCR increased greatly.
He suddenly thought of Zero's previous move to stop his advance, combined with what it had just said.
"Don't you think, that's not just a projection?"
The rangers who disappeared into the picture, Ling Qi always had a feeling, as if they had been "eaten" by something. But he couldn't believe it, because it didn't make any sense of logic!
"I don't know, I just don't think the Enclave would do such boring things. Moreover, the explosives thrown in from the outside make the wrong frequency of explosions!"
Mr. Good's previous argument was also thought of by Ling Qi, and as for the latter point, it made him unconscious.
The chaotic battlefield is full of artillery fire, it's good to be able to take care of the surroundings, who cares about the distance, especially the places that can't be seen!
Of course, if you think about it carefully, as long as the commander of the NRC is not a fool, then he dares to let the soldiers continue to charge, he must have the same guess as Ling Qi before, and also "confirms" this conjecture.
Isn't it the best kind of "proof" that the attackers saw the shells flying farther and farther away, and at the same time heard the sound of explosions coming from the camp! This shows that the enemy is only playing tricks, and behind the calm picture, the real enemy forces are already crumbling!
Ling Qi couldn't hear those sounds, because the picture he saw had been processed, and even if it was played with the audio, he couldn't tell the difference, but Zero could analyze even the tiniest data!
So did the Enclave deliberately make outsiders think they were playing tricks? Or was it really so?
Ling Qi didn't understand, he always felt that he had ignored something.
"If it's a projection, then as long as the voice is synchronized in real time, people on the battlefield can mistakenly think that their attack is still carried out. But in reality, there will always be subtle differences between matching sound and reality, including decibels and frequency. β
Zero explained again, but it wasn't much different from not explaining.
"So, you still think it's a projection, it's just not as simple as it seems, like there will be traps in the back? But this is to cover up something, and the Enclave even goes out of his way to make people think they've seen through their hole cards. A game within a game?"
Ling Qi asked lightly, the way of thinking backwards and backwards had already confused him.
He thought about it carefully, even so, would outsiders not be wary of unknown traps? People will naturally be wary of what they "can't see"!
"It's okay if that's the case, I'm just afraidβ"
Zero muttered, and Ling Qi sighed slightly.
