Chapter 5: The Escape of the Old Knight

After a few days, Amilkar Zhao walked into the virtual conference room again.

The room was still in the dark. It's just that each participant is surrounded by a counterintuitive light - or they are all "light sources" in this space.

These are all virtual images, and they don't particularly obey the laws of optics.

There should be a little more people than last time. Amilcar counted more than thirty. All the independent armed cadres around this punch were present. This should be regarded as one of the few major moves by the loosely structured gene pool defense forces.

The officer at the head looked at it and said, "Almost all the people who should have been there have arrived." So let's start the meeting. ”

There was a lot of noise in his voice, and the rustling was almost impossible to eliminate. It occurred to Amilcar that the colleague was still in the wilderness, not returning to the base camp.

Most of the cadres who defend the armed forces are now in their own super-buildings. The height of this level is high enough that the main body of the sandstorm is no longer large enough to affect communications from the satellite station on the top floor of the building.

Even if this satellite station has just been bombed by EMP in two weeks.

And there is no such condition in the wilderness. The best communication conditions over there are mobile signal transmitters.

"Because of the sandstorm, we should admit it this time." The officer said, "This sandstorm lasted a long time. During this period, our military was unable to maintain adequate communications, and the chain of command was very limited. That's bad. ”

"But that's probably an advantage." Another officer spoke: "If those knights don't have radioactive batteries, they won't be able to replenish energy in a sandstorm. And we can rely on manual transportation of batteries to keep the army running. In this situation, we still have an advantage. ”

The officer at the head nodded: "I have thought about it too." But until they run out of energy, those knights are more mobile than the average soldier. There is a possibility that they will loot the batteries that we are transporting. And without efficient communication, it is difficult for us to ensure that the battery can be accurately distributed. ”

"I've gathered all the elite warriors under my command. They'll escort the battery. The officer said, "Your search line is now closer to my territory. If I need it, I can take a portion of it out of my electricity storage. ”

Inside the Shelterer's super buildings, there are often large fusion reactor functions. They have little dependence on the sun and have ample reserves.

Even if the army operates, the energy consumed can reach 10,000 times that of the chivalrous operation, and they can afford to supply.

"Yes, too." The officer with a lot of noise nodded: "However, the soldiers here are all left by various cadres. They were originally part of different units in different cities. Just as there is no unified chain of command, it is easy to have problems such as poor coordination and accidental injury to friendly forces. Even if you can provide enough energy, I can't act rashly. ”

"Let's maintain the guerrilla of the elite squad of warriors." Someone else suggested, "Keep patrolling the map." Those knights haven't been exposed to solar energy for two days. Now the power in the body should not be enough to support high-intensity combat. ”

"Don't forget, the spacecraft that Taun Hai fell on Earth had isotope batteries or small reactors." Another said: "That reactor is there, and they can sustain energy for at least a few people." ”

"It's a little annoying." The officer who was willing to provide energy was also a headache.

"But at least they won't be able to replenish parts." Another officer said: "We have effectively pulled out all the green forests and villages, and we have also moved away some of the wilderness settlements. In addition, the hand of His Excellency Amilcar was indeed beautiful - except for the sudden tightening of the quota for space-based ammunition, everything was perfect. ”

Amilcarre nodded proudly: "Parts loss will be their enemy. ”

"Forget it, it doesn't matter." The officer, who was still on the lookout, spoke. His internal rank seems to be a little higher than the others. After the assassination of Bengel in Xiangshan caused most of the Gen Bank Guards to return to the territory to consolidate the defenses, it was he who stayed behind to direct the manhunt for Tao Enhai.

He said, "The Taun sea is contaminated with Ivolu spores. As the infection progresses, his martial arts will only get weaker and weaker. It doesn't hurt if we wait. ”

"Now, Tao Enhai probably needs someone who can perform brain separation surgery for him, as well as a safe operating environment."

Saying this, the officer smiled: "I don't think that ordinary knights would master this kind of surgery that is almost unnecessary." ”

There was also a burst of light-hearted laughter around.

Truly.

Tao Enhai was originally a knight who operated near Mars and the asteroid belt. A year ago, for unknown reasons, he moved towards Jupiter, and was intercepted by the Space Fleet in Jupiter's Celestial Domain more than half a year ago.

It is reported that his purpose was to find some otherworldly master who lived in seclusion near Jupiter, possibly one of the pioneers.

In the outer harbor of Jupiter, Taun Hai had a brief battle with the King of Speed. Although the King of God Speed was a powerful warrior, he had feelings for those early knights, and did not kill them, nor did he prevent them from escaping. He just showed up there at the right time to stop the old knight's hijacking of the airport.

In the midst of this fight, the Speedy King ordered the defenses at the airport base to release Ivolu spores, a product of genetic engineering, into the air.

It resembles a cancer cell, or rather, it is simply a specific pathogen transformed from a baseline human cancer cell. After this sporotype cell, it has the property of "unrestricted division". Moreover, it completely replaces ATP hydrolysis chemical energy with electric field energy. Put simply, it absorbs electricity efficiently. In areas with high humidity, it is even able to cling to electrical equipment, causing huge losses.

After destroying the outer armor and entering the prosthesis, this thing will continue to damage the prosthetic, and even have a certain chance of entering the biological brain.

And the Divine Speed King's external skills are very high, and the prosthetic body is also the essence of human science and technology. The wounds he inflicted were just right to ensure that Ivolu's spores penetrated into Taunhai's biological brain.

That is, the high-level of this asylum cares about the old friendship, so he did not chase him out. It's just that he also informed Tao Enhai, hoping that Tao Enhai could surrender.

After escaping from the cosmodrome, Taun Hai relied on his understanding of the ship technique to kill and barely escape the pursuing fleet in the asteroid belt. It's just that his spacecraft was also damaged. If it weren't for the high prosthetic rate and metalization degree, this old knight would have died in outer space due to lack of oxygen. But even so, he couldn't hold out for long.

As a result, he could only flee to the nearest large celestial body, which was Earth.

Although the center of gravity of human civilization has long since moved out, as the place of origin of human beings, the earth still has a considerable population and a relatively most livable environment.

According to the asylum seems, Tao Enhai may have hoped to find help here.

Unfortunately, due to the need to avoid the Moon's garrison, the Agni had few landing options.

In the end, Tao Enhai only deceived the monitoring network of outer space with the help of the camouflage layer outside the spacecraft and landed in the New World.

Originally, this was supposed to be a script of "catching turtles in an urn". But I don't know who leaked the news, and there were rumors on the Internet that "the old chivalrous guest was in trouble in the New World", which later led to the story of the help of the heroes.

"At least this time, time is in our favor." The officer who searched for him concluded: "I could even say that the more knights come, the louder our exploits become. ”

Jadel remembers that when a sandstorm lifts, it's often the time when the city is at its most vibrant.

Because the dust is raised, it means that many wireless monitoring systems are less effective. This makes it easier for some people in the shadows of the city to move.

Many grievances are resolved in sandstorms.

In addition, sandstorms can interfere with civilian electromagnetic signals, so those poor people who are addicted to the Internet have to stand up at this time to find work in exchange for payment.

The sand and dust could not make their metal skin feel pain. The goggles are also enough to protect against damage to the eyes.

In short, when there is a sandstorm, the whole city is rejuvenated.

But this time, Jadel didn't feel that way.

The whole city is still in a half-dead state.

The sentry posts and checkpoints in various locations seem to cut off the "vitality" flowing on the city streets.

"These eagles ......," Jadel scolded. He turned his head to look at Yuki and whispered, "Little ghost, remember, in the streets and alleys, it is also important to find a way to avoid the eagle dog. Keep up. ”

Bypass surveillance, climb over lower barriers, and bypass checkpoints set up by asylum seekers......

It is also quite an important craft for assassins.

"You have to be optimistic, you have to know how to distinguish the type of monitoring instrument with the naked eye." "In a sandstorm, thunderstorm, or EMP environment, we can approach a wireless type of monitor. But limited is not possible. You need to know how to distinguish ...... from information such as power supply, location of wired network, etc."

"Of course, there are also some wired monitoring instruments, deliberately disguised as infinite types. There are also places that are manually monitored......"

Yuki nodded incessantly, and jotted down the key points in the notebook in his head.

The two taught and learned all the way, and soon found themselves outside Hiroshi Matsushima's residence.

Yuki couldn't help but ask, "Uncle, can you tell me now who your 'friend you met in the past' is?" We're going to meet in a moment. ”

"I won't say it until the last minute." The Single Killer King said very seriously: "Even if we reach the door of that person's house, we may be held down on the spot. It's also possible that you were caught, but I escaped. In this case, if you don't know this information, won't that friend be safe? ”
