Chapter Ninety-Six: A Detour
In the early morning of September 11, 2022, all the troops in the eight theaters of war were inserted like sharp swords towards the spawn point of Figure 15. At the same time, the artificial intelligence direction released a video to the world, intercepting the footage of the combined army's march, claiming that its "inherent territory" has been violated by humans, and is shocked and incomprehensible about this, hoping that humans can immediately stop the pace of attack and return to the negotiating table.
At the same time, they also expressed the hope that the human side can withdraw its troops before the final agreement is reached, otherwise they will use all necessary means to maintain their "territorial sovereignty".
The human side is no longer surprised by this, and takes out photos of the original stations of the eight major theaters being bombed into ruins, and mentions the Antarctic iceberg again by the way, accusing the artificial intelligence of constantly moving behind the scenes and having no sincerity in negotiations. It's tolerable, it's unbearable!
This sentence is basically equivalent to the famous sentence of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of China, "Don't say anything unpredictable", which is a sign of a formal declaration of war.
Both sides have their own arguments and reasons. Artificial intelligence believes that human armies have crossed the line and compressed their living space; Human beings believe that the successive missile strikes of artificial intelligence seriously threaten the survival of mankind and provoke the bottom line of mankind, and human beings only make a warning counterattack.
War only needs an excuse, and now that the excuse has been found on both sides, and the army is marching in, let's fight!
Hawking's words finally became a reality.
……
In the game world, the first echelon of the Combine Army is 189,230 blocks away from the spawn point of Figure 15.
At this point, they were approaching an artificial intelligence stronghold that had been discovered by the mappers earlier. From the outside, it is obvious that they are hiding in a single-story cabin left by the player, like an elf and youkai hiding in the depths of a cave.
At this time, a team had already sneaked into the vicinity of the cabin. They can be called the advance team of the advance team, Group A1 of the Jinghu Theater in China, with 7 people wearing red shirts.
"Captain, do you want to wait until the rest of the team in this group is in place before launching a raid?" One of the team members sent a message to their captain, Ren Han.
"There were only three zombies in there." Ren Han looked indifferent. The plug-in can also show the entity in the cabin through the wall, a bit like a perspective plug-in.
Three zombies, two awakening stages, and one primordial brain stage. One is 25% in the arousal stage, one is 19%, and the original brain stage is 96%.
"Leave 25% of that one and see if you can get anything useful out of his mouth, and cut the rest." Ren Han said.
"Yes!"
They cautiously approached the cabin, their ears pressed against the wooden walls to listen to the movement inside. The three zombies inside are laughing and scolding, having a lot of fun, not noticing that there are people outside, which is worse than the zombies sensed by the original partition wall, and I really don't know whether it has evolved or degenerated.
"Dogdan, why do you say you call Dogdan?" One zombie asks the other.
"Dog, dog!" The zombie called the dog replied, I'm afraid that the original brain is 96%, like a three- or four-year-old child.
"Okay, Ergouzi, don't play with him." The third zombie spoke, "He's still young, it's like you used to mess with people, and grow up fast." ”
"I'm young, I'm young!" Dogan answered.
"Hey, Stalin, I was forced to do it, okay, the old ghost is simply a demon!" The zombie second dog shouted, "Now follow the king, I can finally find my freedom!" ”
"By the way, do you know where the king has gone?" Stalin asked.
"The king is not in this realm, I heard that the king has a bad relationship with other kings, and now he is in other realms, because the king is too 'left'." The second dog is a bit unspeakable, and he doesn't know human language very well.
"Anyway, we just need to complete the task given by the king!" Stalin patted his chest and drew an iron sword.
At this time, an unfamiliar male voice suddenly appeared:
"What task did the Zombie King give you? Tell me. ”
The three zombies were so frightened that they screamed "Wow", turned their heads to look at them, and saw Ren Han lying at the window of the wooden house looking at them. The dog suddenly roared angrily, pounced on Ren Han with his bare hands, and shouted "kill, kill" in his mouth, wanting to tear him to pieces.
Stalin also rushed forward with an iron sword behind the dog, only the second dog was still stunned, muttering to himself: "Old ghost? Oh no, Boss Ren? ”
Ren Han saw the two zombies pounce on, unmoved, flashed two teammates on the left and right, raised his legs and kicked the glass on the window, then turned around and jumped into the wooden house, and instantly the two zombies. The other teammates rushed in directly through the door of the wooden house, holding two bright iron swords on the neck of the second dog.
Group A1 is the advance team, and picking up a few small shrimps is like the autumn wind sweeping away the leaves, and it will be solved in three or two clicks.
"Second dog, long time no see. Are zombies like Big Dog, Three Dogs, and Four Dogs okay? Ren Han stepped over the windowsill and walked into the house. What he said was the name of the monster in the monster legion that was trained by the players in the official uniform when they were in the melee before, and Ergouzi was one of them.
"Boss Ren, they are all under the command of the king now, they are free, they don't have to follow you anymore!" Ergouzi said indignantly, "Me too! ”
"Freedom?" Ren Han was very disdainful, "And it's also freedom under the king." lest your king tell you that you are free, and you feel that you are truly free. ”
"Yes, we weren't free before!" Even though he was held by two iron swords, the two dogs did not panic.
"You don't know what freedom is." Ren Han was a little impatient, "I won't tell you this, for the sake of you being trained by me at the beginning, I plan to give you a way to live, provided that I tell me what your king wants you to do." ”
After Ren Han finished speaking, he stretched out his hand and pointed to the ceiling again, adding: "If you don't say it, we will tear down the roof and let you bask in the sun." ”
All three zombies had a look of fear in their eyes. What it means to let zombies bask in the sun, anyone who has played MC knows it.
"Okay, I said." The second dog is very obedient. Of course, he is only 25% awake, and it is difficult to expect him to keep a secret firmly.
"The king has a city deep in the desert, and he told us to look after it on the periphery, and if we found out that there was a situation, we immediately had people put on their hats and rush back to report it."
Ergouzi told the location, size, and approximate number of monsters in the city, which made Ren Han and the others very satisfied, and sent the news they got to the command level through the message, so that they could make a decision.
……
In the middle of the Combine Army, several people in the command layer stood on a high place, looking at the desert biome in the distance. Information has just been received that a large number of AI entities are gathering in the depths of the desert, just in the direction of the Combine's spawn point.
"We haven't encountered hordes of monsters along the way, and it seems that there are two possibilities at the moment, one is that they don't know that we have successfully entered, and the other is that they have been prepared for a long time and plan to ambush a wave." Some speculate.
"It's also possible that it's daytime, and most of the monsters can't move normally, and they won't do it until night." Another said, "The gathering place we just learned about speaks for itself, and we should take precautions and even take the initiative." ”
"Guys, our goal is the spawn point." Xiao Chen said, "We can't fight casually now, logistics are limited, the base camp is also temporary, and even the place of birth cannot guarantee safety." ”
"So you mean, bypass?"
"That's right. As far as we know about the terrain, the west side of the desert should be a marine biome, so we bypassed the desert from the eastern plains. Xiao Chen said.
"Okay. It's just that I'm worried that there are gathering spots on the other side of the plain. ”
"A 50% chance of danger is better than a 100% chance of danger, and decisions can only give the best answer, not the perfect answer." Xiao Chen said.
……
So, a public message popped up in my message window, informing everyone of the change of direction and the suspected existence of a monster gathering point in the desert.
"Xiao Chen is planning to take a detour?" I felt that his decision was not well thought out, and that "it would be too hasty to make a decision based on that little bit of information." ”
"We'll have to let him think about it again." Victor suggested.
"No, you have to speak with facts, otherwise no matter how you think about it, it will be the same result." I shook my head and vetoed, and sent a message to Wu Haoxuan: "Second captain, can you help me request to connect with the command level?" ”
"I'll try, but I can't pass it...... Hey? It actually passed! ”
My message channel has been transferred to the command channel, but for a limited time. But before I could open my mouth to send a message, I saw Xiao Chen's ID flashing, so I took the initiative to contact me first.
"Yi Ouyi, you shouldn't surprise us again, right?" He said.
"No, Chief Teacher, I applied to lead the team into the desert myself. I'll keep in touch with the big force the whole time, just go and scout and come back. ”
"Reconnaissance has a special reconnaissance group."
"I actually wanted to visit that city."
Xiao Chen was silent for a long time, so long that I felt as if a few hours had passed, and it wasn't until the end of the channel's limited time that he answered me in a low voice:
"Yes."
"Thank you." I breathed a sigh of relief and disconnected from the channel.
When I left the channel, a personal ID flashed inside, and I asked Xiao Chen, "Why do you agree?" This is crazy! This is against the rules! ”
But Xiao Chen's answer was: "It's just a test, if he passes, there will be one more ID in our channel in the future." ”
