Chapter 987: It's going well
"With this thing, will we be able to manipulate that satellite?" Qi Lin grabbed the disc and asked with some excitement.
"Theoretically, it is, provided that the main brain does not modify the key of the satellite control program." Sophia nodded.
"The disc was not discovered by them, which means that the mastermind did not know that Dr. Horford had copied the satellite's control program and key...... Regardless, this opportunity is worth a try. β
"Well, if you can modify the attack coordinates of the 'Sword of Damocles'...... Perhaps, we can just put an end to this. β
"Let the Mastermind destroy its own weapon...... However, do you know where the coordinates of the specific ontology of the main brain are? β
"I don't know, but Qin definitely knows that the main brain was built by their group of people in the first place, and as far as I know, the main body of the main brain is extremely huge, and the total area is even more than a small town of 100,000 people, it is almost impossible for it to ...... No, it's impossible to move its own body, and even if it wants to, such a huge project will inevitably cause the main brain's body to stop functioning for a while, but it has never been offline since the master brain was built. β
As Sophia said, the main brain replica located deep underground at the Fort Yukon base alone occupies an area of more than 600,000 square meters, and the computing power of this replica is less than one-third of the main brain itself.
"Then we must rush back to the cloning factory immediately, this matter must not be leaked, once leaked, all the contents of this disc will be invalidated."
"I know." Sophia bit her lip tightly, "I'm definitely not going to make my father's death meaninglessβ"
β¦β¦
The two of them searched the central laboratory for the last time, but except for the safe, everything that could be removed had been looted, especially information carriers such as hard disks, memory cards, PDAs, and paper files.
Fortunately, those people didn't choose to attack the safe with the self-destruct device, which allowed Dr. Horford's diary and CD to fall into Qi Lin's hands.
Qi Lin took Sophia out of the central laboratory, and on the way, they encountered a black-eyed army standing by on the spot, but before Qi Lin could shoot, those soldiers dropped their weapons in their hands and raised their arms high above their heads to show their attitude.
Seemingly...... Qin and Ella's side have also made a lot of progress.
"Who is your commander?" Qi Lin walked up to the group of soldiers and asked.
"Commander...... We had no commander, we only obeyed the orders of Sergeant Jack, who told us to stand by and not to fight anyone. A daring soldier was the first to reply.
"Sergeant Jack? Who is Sergeant Jack? β
"I am." A soldier wearing a combat exoskeleton squeezed out of the crowd, "That's my order." β
"What about your commander? Did he put you where you were? Qi Lin continued to ask.
"No...... I had lost contact with Command an hour earlier, and then I received a message from the clone factory......"
As Qi Lin guessed, the command system of the Black-Eye Force adopts the method of direct command transmission, and each squad directly receives orders from the command headquarters, although this practice avoids the problem of chaotic instructions and difficult coordination of troops, but if the higher-level command system is damaged, then the actions of the lower-level troops will immediately be paralyzed.
It stands to reason that this would have been difficult to happen in the Fort Yukon base, but how could these agents not have imagined that the "rebels" would have such a weapon that could concentrate the spiritual power of hundreds or thousands of clones, materialize them, and launch them, and they had been completely wiped out by accurate sniping before they even left a prepared contingency plan.
Without the command of their superiors, the black-eyed troops were suddenly leaderless, and at this time, Ella chose to tell them the truth about the Sword of Damocles......
Unlike the officers on the base, these soldiers rarely have family members held hostage in the hands of the organization, so after losing their commanders, they have become the most rebellious group - as long as the "sense of independence" that has been gradually eroded by these soldiers in long-term collective training can be reawakened, and it is a matter of course to make them defect.
Qi Lin didn't continue to ask, and the sergeant named Jack focused on Sophia, as the only daughter of Dr. Horford and the second-in-command of the entire research institute, there were very few soldiers in the Black-Eye Force who didn't know her.
"You're Dr. Sophia...... Concerning...... About that...... News of the Sword of Damocles...... Is it true? β
Jack asked with some hesitation, the news was so shocking that until now, he hadn't fully believed it...... In other words, after completely digesting this information, coupled with the fact that the superior commander did not know where to go, they who had been accustomed to obeying orders for a long time suddenly had a feeling of being at a loss.
For a soldier, the worst thing is undoubtedly betrayed by his superiors...... As for the news related to the sword of Damocles, except for those few agents and a few high-ranking officers, few people in the entire Fort Yukon base know about it, and now choosing to publish this news is undoubtedly equivalent to dropping a bombshell on the already not very calm lake.
"It's true." Sophia nodded, "For the sake of the stability of the Utopia Project, the Mastermind has intended to wipe out our remaining monitors from the beginning. β
"Boom......" Sergeant Jack swallowed with some difficulty, and the soldiers behind him whispered, Sergeant Jack did not choose to hide the news he received, but told them all about it.
"That'...... Doctor, what should we do now? How are we going to do it...... You guys...... You're not going to give up on us, are you? Sophia in front of them seemed to have become the only life-saving straw that these soldiers could grasp, and they themselves knew very well that if there was no person like Sophia who stood up and led them, they would never have escaped the Fort Yukon base alive on their own.
"Resist. We have to rebel...... No matter what the cost. β
"But...... Now that the entire network of Vaults is under the control of the organization and masterminds, and with a 'sword of Damocles' hanging over our heads, our resistance ...... Did it work? Jack asked the question that was common to all the soldiers.
"As long as we can turn off the mastermind, everything will end, at least at this time we can't give up...... The troops loyal to the mastermind are on their way to the base at the moment, if you make up your mind, go and gather the surrounding troops now, only by withstanding this round of offensive, we will have a chance to carry out the next plan. Qi Lin said solemnly to Jack - the crowd has blind obedience, especially when this kind of loss of purpose and betrayal...... As long as a small number of people can become guides, a large number of rebels can be gathered in no time.
This situation is almost the same as the Iron City in the original "Wasteland Survival Code".
