"I know who you are, and I know what you're here for......" Ella didn't seem to realize at all that Qi Lin was ready to burst out suddenly, as long as the stun effect generated by the detonation of the Mind Beacon could buy Qi Lin half a second, he could instantly complete the counter-kill.

However, just when Qi Lin was about to detonate the Idea Beacon, an extremely powerful spiritual force suddenly smashed the Mind Beacon that Qi Lin attached to Ella's body!

"You!" Qi Lin was startled, and was about to fight to the death, but that powerful spiritual power suddenly swept towards him, setting off a layer of turbulent waves in the sea of consciousness in his mind - for a moment, Qi Lin could be said to have completely lost the power to resist......

This guy in front of you...... It turned out to be a mental power ability, and her ability may have reached the standard level of five levels!

The powerful spiritual storm destroyed Qi Lin's consciousness, and he only felt a blank in his brain, and he stumbled and fell to his knees.

It's actually planted on this...... Qi Lin sighed secretly in his heart, he often walks by the river, how can he not get his shoes wet, this time, it can be said that he is a little witch, the spiritual power of the woman in front of him is so strong, it can be said that among the people Qi Lin has come into contact with, except for the mysterious guy Qin, the most terrifying one.

No wonder...... No wonder this woman is in her early thirties and can sit in this position......

Just when Qi Lin was feeling remorseful in his heart, the other party suddenly pulled him up, and then the spiritual power that raged in his head suddenly disappeared.

"We are not enemies." Ella suddenly changed her words and said in a surprising voice.

"W-What?!" Qi Lin was obviously a little confused, but his first reaction was to retreat a few steps backwards and distance himself from the woman.

"I said, we're not enemies." Ella shrugged her shoulders, although she had used the heavy desert eagle against Qi Lin's vital point a second, but in her eyes, Qi Lin could not see a trace of hostility.

"You say you know who I am...... I also know my purpose, so why do you say that you are not my enemy? Qi Lin asked suspiciously, although the situation in front of him was very strange, but no matter what, at least this Ella did not take advantage of the moment when Qi Lin lost the ability to resist just now.

If she did that, even if Qi Lin didn't die, she would inevitably be seriously injured enough to lose her combat effectiveness.

"It's simple, because three months ago, I discovered a huge secret." Ella said with a smirk.

"Secret? What secret? ”

"Do you feel that this cloning factory takes up a lot less space than you expected?" For some reason, Ella suddenly changed the subject.

"It seems...... That's right. Qi Lin nodded undeniably, although this cloning factory was indeed very large, it only occupied a third of the space at most compared to the entire "cylinder space" reserved in the spiral structure.

"Do you know what else is in this space besides this cloning factory?"

"How would I know? If you have something to say, just say it, I don't have time to play guessing games with you-" Qi Lin urged a little impatiently, time was pressing, his whereabouts could be exposed at any time, although the strange woman in front of him did not shoot at herself, nor did she trigger the alarm, but if those corpses outside were discovered, even if the woman in front of him did nothing, Qi Lin would fall into an extremely embarrassing situation......

"You're impatient...... Forget it, I'll get straight to the point - I found a satellite construction workshop in this base, and this workshop is just above the rock formation directly above our heads. Ella said.

"Satellite construction workshops? What's so strange about that? Are you sitting in this position and don't even know about satellites? In addition to those satellites left over from the old era, the mastermind should have also built and launched a lot of satellites in the past few years, what is so strange about a satellite construction workshop? ”

"But this satellite is different, it's a weapon — it's called the Sword of Damocles."

"Satellite weapons?" Qi Lin had certainly heard of the allusion to the sword of Damocles, a sword hanging over a human head, with only a horse's mane that could break at any moment tied to the hilt of the sword - a fable from ancient Greece that would later be used to refer to "conditioning, damnation, and power."

In many works, the fall of the sword of Damocles means the fall of the end times...... It's just that, in Qi Lin's view, the end has already come to the earth once, and if it comes again, what is the point?

"Is it a nuclear weapon? But...... Isn't it incapable of creating, possessing, and using strategic-class nuclear weapons? Has it broken through that limit? ”

"Not really." Ella shook her head, "The official name of the 'Sword of Damocles' is called 'Space-based Kinetic Energy Weapon', to put it simply, it is to send a giant high-density tungsten rod 65 meters long and 1.5 meters in diameter to low earth orbit, under the dual action of the earth's gravity and booster rocket, this tungsten rod will fall towards the earth at a meteorite speed, and when it falls to the ground, the huge kinetic energy attached to the tungsten rod is enough to destroy half of the Indian peninsula...... Such weapons can not only destroy human shelters located hundreds of meters underground, but also cause no pollution. ”

"Is there really such a thing?" Qi Lin is a little unbelievable, this kind of weapon has not appeared in the old times and movies, but this thing has always belonged to the category of science fiction, and Qi Lin does not think that there will really be a country or organization to develop and manufacture this kind of weapon that costs a lot of money, and the actual effect has not been accurately verified.

The cost of making such a weapon and sending it into low-earth orbit would probably wipe out several countries casually if it were used to make a nuclear bomb, and this weapon would not have any advantages over nuclear weapons except that it would not cause radiation pollution to the environment.

"Of course, even before the war, Russia, the United States, and China were concentrating resources on the research and development of this type of weapon, among which the United States was the first to produce results - they built a satellite called the 'Scepter of God', which carried four tungsten alloy rods with a length of 5 meters and a diameter of 20 centimeters, according to the results of computer derivation, a quarter of the Scepter of God was enough to destroy the entire New York City, and including 50 meters underground, it was included in the strike range." Ella continued.

"Then why didn't they use the Staff of God in the midst of war?"

"At that time, there was no need for this...... As a result of the nuclear bundling strategy, once any country with nuclear weapons presses the launch button of a nuclear bomb, then everything is irreversible - there are many countries that possess nuclear weapons, but few countries that possess space-based kinetic weapons. What's the point of using the rod of God in this situation? Ella said with a light sigh.

"Well, even if that's the case, then what does this 'Sword of Damocles' have to do with me? What does it have to do with you? As someone on the mastermind's side, shouldn't it be a good thing for you to be able to have such a powerful weapon? Qi Lin asked rhetorically.

"No...... Not really...... The target of the Sword of Damocles was set when it was created, and this is it. Ella shook her head with a sudden smile and pointed her finger at her feet.

"Fort Yukon base? Is the Mastermind crazy? Why would it attack its own base with weapons of its own making?! Don't...... Is it to extinguish the mouth? ”

"Just to kill the mouth...... Not everyone can enter the utopian world, at least not the people in this base, according to the original arrangement, after the Utopia project officially begins, we will continue to live in the real world as the 'regulators' of the utopian world. ”

"It's like an online game GM...... Or is it the maintenance programmer? ”

"That's pretty much it, but the mastermind doesn't fully trust us, and according to the information I stole from the satellite computer, the launch of the Sword of Damocles was five years later, and by that time, the operation of the utopian world has basically entered into normalcy, and the value of our people has become dispensable."

"At that time, the mastermind can arrange you into that virtual world again, why kill you all?"

"We know too much, and people who know too much are often difficult to control, for the mastermind, as long as it can retain the vast majority of people, it has achieved its goal, and our 'unstable factors', the best choice is to completely erase them." There was a hint of bitterness in Ella's tone.

"It's really a standard way of thinking about problems...... So what are you going to do? ”

"I want to work with you, I just want your purpose to shut down the mastermind, and I'll help you." Ella's beautiful eyes stared at Qi Lin tightly and said word by word.

"Just the two of us? You know, I'm alone right now...... In fact, it's not once that I think about giving up, this kind of thing is not something that can be done by one person...... This is reality, not a superhero movie in the United States. ”

"But I'm not willing to be treated as an outcast like this, anyway, I'd rather die in the struggle." Ara's eyes flashed with flames, Qi Lin was no stranger to such eyes, and he knew very well what Ella's thoughts were now.

She wants to rebel against her fate, and she's willing to pay any price for it.

"Okay, so how many people in this base know about this?"

"At the moment, I'm the only one, the construction workshop of the 'Sword of Damocles' is a top-secret area, and there are only robots and cyborgs in it."

"If you think we're going to make this public, how many people can we turn against it?" Qi Lin then threw out another question.

The strength of the two of them alone is far from enough, but if you add the entire Fort Yukon base, you may be able to see a glimmer of hope.

"I don't know, but if this news is released rashly, there will definitely be civil unrest within the base, and the whole situation may get out of control...... I haven't thought of using this information to launch a 'coup d'état', but it's very difficult to implement it. So, I need to work with you. ”

"The current situation is not in our hands, so to mess up the situation, in a sense, it is beneficial to us, as long as someone can stand up and lead those who are willing to resist......" Speaking of this, Qi Lin naturally remembered the "change" launched by him, Cheng Yanqiu and Aya Aoi in the Steel City, in that "change", they did not completely destroy the mutual aid association, but they succeeded in turning the mutual aid association into their own bag.

Can such a plot be staged again at the Fort Yukon base?

"That's right...... There is also a very crucial question, about this 'Sword of Damocles', that 'Xia', does he know? If he knew, things wouldn't have gotten to this point. ”

"Do you mean that 'Natsu'? I think he should know, but even if he did, he would have chosen to support the mastermind, because he was not on the list that needed to be erased, he was more fanatical about the world of utopia than anyone else, and when the separation technique was successfully perfected, I am sure he would be the first to enter the world of utopia. ”

"And where is he now?" If this summer

"I don't know, 'Xia''s whereabouts have always been a secret, even if he sometimes appears somewhere openly, it may just be a misleading trick, if you want to get rid of 'Xia' first, I advise you to give up this idea...... He is not the key point of the whole incident, as long as he can shut down the mastermind, he alone will not be able to carry out the utopian plan. And if you want to shut down the mastermind, you'll have to help me take this base, either way. ”

"But before that, he's going to be a big obstacle, isn't he? I dare say that as long as we carry out a 'coup' at the Fort Yukon base, soon the repressive army from him will be parachuted here, and if we don't have enough strength to deal with him, then everything is just empty words. Regarding Ella's statement, Qi Lin has a completely opposite opinion, he and Xia have fought more than once, what a difficult opponent this is, Qi Lin knows it very well in his heart.

Especially when he's on the same side as the mastermind, things get even trickier.

"No, we have enough strength to deal with reinforcements from the outside." Ella suddenly walked to the life support pod and looked through the brown glass at Ayakui, who was suspended in the physiological maintenance solution.

"You mean...... Ayakui...... No, no, those clones!! Don't?! ”

"You guessed it, the reason why I went to great lengths to create a clone of this little girl is not so that those idiots can study those goddamn subjects, but to get a force strong enough, enough to compete with the entire base! Only if I can take the Fort Yukon base, I will have a way to gain control of the 'Sword of Damocles'!" Ella said in a low voice and excitedly as she looked at Ayakui, who had just woken up from her slumber.
