Chapter 561: Sister Logic
As the distance between the two became shorter and shorter, the light in Edison's eyes became more and more intense, and finally, it became as brilliant as starlight.
The starlight came from a sword, a sword that shimmered with a blue hue, and the edge of the blade rolled like wisps of flame.
Those brilliant blue flames were reflected in his eyes, and they became bright stars.
The hand holding the gun hung weakly, Edison glanced down at the lightsaber passing through his chest, and then looked at the six fanatics and Tang Lin at the door, his eyes full of puzzlement.
The man didn't look back, didn't look sideways, didn't look at him, still frowned and walked step by step to the touchpad surface on the armrest of the high-backed chair, as if he didn't realize the crisis of that moment.
Edison gathered what little strength he had left, slowly turned his head, and looked behind him.
The white streaks of light rippled like water, accompanied by the slight sound of electricity, and a soldier wrapped in black leather armor appeared in his eyes, and the blade of light that pierced his chest came from the turquoise blue energy flow of the opponent's right wrist.
It dawned on him that he finally understood why that kid dared to walk to the high-backed chair with a generous attitude, fearless of surprise attacks, and not afraid of difficulties. It turned out that he had arranged his follow-up early in the morning, and he could take the lives of his own people at any time.
It is really hard to accept that these special forces can be stealthy and can enter the command center silently without being detected.
Harrington? Harris opened his mouth, but after all, he didn't speak, because he didn't know what to say, was he desperate like Edison? Or scream like a cat whose tail has been stepped on?
Susan looked at him, and there was no emotion in her eyes such as sadness or pity, on the contrary, it was surprisingly calm, so calm that it made people feel that there was a taste of indifference in it.
Edison remembered that she was a very kind woman, could it be that he was not even as good as a wounded bird? Not worthy of her pity? Don't deserve her sympathy? Not worth her grief?
At last. He looked to the left and right, and several of his followers had fallen to the ground, blood pouring from the breach of the power armor, and the light floor was dyed red.
He forced himself to hook his fingers, trying to pull the trigger with the last of his remaining strength. Send that hateful brat who didn't forget to insult him to the end, however, it was all in vain, and the trembling index finger couldn't even press the trigger.
After a few breaths, he was reluctant to die.
Harrington remembered Edison? Kim often said on his lips, "I'd rather die on the battlefield than die in a hospital bed." ”
Just as Edison saw the wreckage of the "Eternal Night", he bowed slightly in mourning and whispered, "If you can." I will fight for you in the next life...... This is the ...... I owe you."
Susan let go of the hand that was gripping his left hand and turned her face away, not wanting to look at the blood on the ground.
Tang Fang's brows furrowed even tighter, even if he was no stranger to the smell of blood, it didn't mean that he could ignore and be indifferent.
He walked very slowly, and the distance he could have walked in 5 steps had to be dragged to 10 steps, because he didn't know what to do with them, so kill them directly? It always feels a little cruel. Leave them behind? What's in it for you? Let's be honest. Harrington's death would be more conducive to the Monkey Killer plan.
It's ridiculous that he killed so many enemies. But it will be a struggle to kill Harrington and Edison.
He suddenly remembered a sentence, out of sight is pure, perhaps...... The same applies to killing.
War does not matter whether it is right or wrong, whether it is good or evil, only victory and defeat, life and death.
But it's different these days. Even if there are still some defenders in the general's palace area who resist, it is difficult to have any impact on the overall situation, and the war of "Mubarak" can be put to rest, and the identities of Harrington, Edison and others have also changed from enemies to prisoners.
It's one thing to go into battle to kill the enemy, it's another thing to slaughter prisoners of war.
He can face the former calmly. But they can't kill those who have lost the ability to resist without peace of mind, unless they deserve it.
Harrington? Does Harris deserve it?
Perhaps, in the eyes of others, the First Fleet of the Legion of Doom raided "Dillard", killing and wounding hundreds of civilians, as their leader, Harrington? Harris was punished. However, only a few core members of the "Morning Star Casting" such as Tang Fang and Ruskin knew that the cemetery outside the "Christel" industrial park was only sleeping with some mimic chicks laid by euglena, as well as spies planted by Albert, Bilbow and others in the industrial park.
Before heading to the Lost Lands, he left Izsha and some eyeworms behind in Kristel in order to create the appearance of the Morning Star Casting suffering heavy casualties so that he could carry out his follow-up plans.
Because every few days, the "Babylon" branch will send a group of Sulu and Mongolian laborers, and the employees of the original "Daystar Pharmaceutical" have been broken up, reorganized, and arranged into different departments by Sheridan, and they cannot be familiar with each other in a short period of time.
As for the navy, it naturally will not do its best to collect the identity information of these foreign smugglers who died in the attack, because the vast majority of them entered the territory of the Star Alliance by means of smuggling, and their personal information is generally falsified.
And because the actions of these people are tantamount to treason, the Sulu Empire and the Mengya Empire will not recognize their citizenship at all, so naturally they cannot contact their relatives to deal with the aftermath, not to mention that the war between the two sides is imminent.
To put it bluntly, confirming the identity of the deceased is just a face-saving project, because no one really cares about their life or death, and they belong to the kind of existence that grandma doesn't love and uncle doesn't love, and the Star Alliance can only do some modest efforts to show the world that it respects human rights.
In this way, how Sheridan reports, the Navy will remember, after all, the "corpse" is there, it has a nose and eyes, and it can not be adulterated, so there is an additional cemetery outside the "Christil" industrial park.
Few people know that it is not humans who sleep inside, but mimic chicks that only have a lifespan of 3 or 4 days.
Of course, there was a slight situation in the matter, and the two agents of Prince Henrietta of the United Kingdom of Turachs to "Christier" should have died together in that raid, who would have thought that only Wang Jianzhi was killed, and Meterev escaped by not staying at the supply space station for personal reasons. However, he was taken away by the landing force of the First Fleet of the Legion of Doom as a valuable scientific researcher.
In the eyes of outsiders, the heavy casualties are actually just a means used by Captain Tang to create a favorable environment for himself. As for the First Fleet of the Legion of Doom, it was used by him as a tool to eliminate dissidents...... Of course, he originally intended to use the pirate coalition.
He is an upright, kind, benevolent, and respectable person in the eyes of the Star Alliance people, how can he dirty his hands to kill. If you want to get rid of those traitors unknowingly, and you don't have to cause a commotion for yourself, of course, it is the most cost-effective way to kill people with a knife.
If others can play with him like this, he can naturally play with others like this.
Stoop to compromise? Bite the bullet? That's not his style.
In fact, no one suffered in the whole thing.
The Covenant struck him with the hand of the Legion of Doom; In this way, the stronghold threat theory is hyped, the national hatred is exaggerated, and the war process is further promoted. The 44th Fleet was dispatched to "Dilar" to occupy the magpie's nest under the pretext of protecting the "Morning Star Cast".
For the Pirate Alliance, it can help Albert out of his bad breath. It can also get high sponsorship from the government, and it can also snipe the development momentum of "Morning Star Casting".
In the same way, the raid on Dillar was just as beneficial to the Legion of Doom, except that those benefits became a funeral gift for Captain Don when Behemoth appeared in the outer void of Arumega.
Harrington? Harris is really unlucky, very pitiful, very pathetic, he can obviously live a little longer, at least he will live a little longer than Albert and Boyle. Pity...... Reality is not like a game, you can never read it again.
So. He was reluctant to slaughter his captives, and more or less unbearable.
Edison? Kim's suicide made him breathe a sigh of relief and gave himself a reason not to feel guilty, admittedly, it was hypocritical, but it was useful not to deny.
He's a human being. It's not a machine.
Eddie was alive and dead, but Harrington was alive and didn't do anything impulsive.
"What should I do with him?"
When he was hesitating about what to do with Harrington, he had already walked to the right side of the high-backed chair and subconsciously inserted the number of jù lines of the harsh environment protective suit into the universal interface next to the trackpad.
"Emma. See if you can restore the number of jù that have been deleted. ”
"Please wait."
Tang Fang agreed, and continued to think about whether to kill or stay Harrington?
After a few breaths, before Emma could answer, the system prompt suddenly sounded.
"The available number is detected, and the diagnostics start ......"
"Diagnosis complete, confirmation of suitability for humans."
"Perform the analysis of the number jù ......"
"Craft level C+, research tree unlocked, technology level 2, unlock the building 'Planetary Fortress'."
Planetary Fortress? The planetary fortress corresponding to the Star Orbit Command Center, the core unit of the urbanization tactics in the battle mode, it ...... It was actually unlocked at this time, but if you carefully recall the weapon system of the central unit of the General's Mansion that is almost armed to the teeth, I think this is a reasonable thing, and the planetary fortress is originally similar to the battlefield role of the central unit of the General's Mansion.
"It's a pity it's just a planetary fortress......"
He let out a long sigh, a little disappointed. Because at a time when the main building cannot be summoned to the real world, the Planetary Fortress is just like the Missile Tower, Bunker, and Photon Turret.
Bothering to gnaw down 'Mubarak' to unlock such a thing? Thinking about Zeratul's magic stick again, and the "Void Chaser" at Base 4, I feel that this battle has been fought in vain.
"Forget it......"
He shook his head, secretly thinking that it would be good to have new elements unlocked, at least unlocking the "Planetary Fortress", "Zeratul" and "Void Chaser" today is an extra gain, after all, this attack on "Mubarak" is for strategic layout considerations, and at the same time to do some zero-prime.
For the "Mubarak" battle, he can say that he has made a lot of money, and the resource consumption of 100 Phoenix fighters + 50 reconnaissance planes alone is as high as 90,000 crystals and 52,500 gas, not to mention the addition of more than 100 corruptors, dozens of flying dragons, and high-consumption units such as Colossus, Hive Insect Lord, and Hercules Transport Plane.
After this battle, the gas resources of the system space dropped from 154514 to 48,544.
Of course, crystal resources have skyrocketed, from 1054345 to 4265456.
He only wants Harrington now? Don't let him down, Harris, the energy warehouse of the munitions warehouse is rich in zero element resources. At least it has to be able to make up for the cost of the campaign, right?
"That's right...... What are the weapons of the Planetary Fortress called? ”
He thought about it carefully, and only remembered that the twin cannons of the planetary fortress had an attack power of up to 40 in battle mode, which was an extremely powerful defensive weapon, but he couldn't remember the name, mainly because it was not very loud, and it seemed to be a translation. It's hard to remember.
Thinking that Emma is still retrieving the information of the central unit number jù library, it can't be completed for a while, and the cost of the planetary fortress is not high, only 450 crystals and 150 gas, it is better to take this opportunity to build one and see what the name of the cannon is.
In the face of similar problems, he felt that he had a slight obsessive-compulsive disorder, and if it was someone with a big personality, he might just give up, but when it came to him. I always feel uncomfortable not understanding things.
So immediately put his attention into the system space Terran base, select an SCV, press the hotkey, and put a "command center" on the edge of the building complex.
A few seconds later, the "Command Center" took shape, and the hotbutton to upgrade to a planetary fortress was pressed for the first time.
After waiting for a pair of twin cannons that can rotate horizontally 360 degrees and rise and fall vertically by plus or minus 45 degrees at the top of the command center, he moved the cursor to the information bar below, and finally came up with the answer to his question - the Ibix gun.
If this weapon system can be raised and lowered vertically at an angle of plus or minus 45 degrees. It should be able to deal with distant air targets, but unfortunately it can't be summoned to real space. Otherwise, you can take the opportunity to do it.
He was thinking about this, and suddenly, the Ibix cannon, which was supposed to be mechanically spinning, rose upwards at an angle of 45 degrees to the horizon, and then uncontrollably fired several shots into the distance.
"Hey, hey. What the hell? Emma...... Emma...... What the hell is going on? ”
He was sure that he had not given the order to force the attack, and it was impossible to penetrate the enemy in the system, so what did it mean for the planetary fortress to fire indiscriminately?
Emma didn't answer, and the Ibix artillery continued to fire at that point.
He began to wonder if something was wrong with the system, and something happened that was out of his control. I remember the previous few times it was either to upgrade the number of jù libraries, or to refresh the system, or to load expansion projects, such as the Protoss base to expand the Interstellar 1 building, such as the process of the wormhole breeding Behemoth.
What kind of moth is Sister Logic doing?
He gave the system AI a very pertinent name, Sister Logic, to commemorate "her" undisciplined logical way of thinking.
The Planetary Fortress's Ibix artillery stopped after dozens of consecutive operations, nothing happened to the Terran base, no new elements were unlocked, and the interface did not change a single qiē number jù.
Just as he was feeling strange, a voice rang in his ears that was different from that of the Terran unit.
Squeak......
If you listen closely, it looks like the screams of a Zerg unit.
In the next second, a shadow fell from the sky.
When he saw the body of the shadow, his eyes suddenly widened, and the corners of his mouth involuntarily twitched a few times, and he finally figured out what Sister Logic was doing.
The Ibex artillery bombarded the invisible barrier between the human base and the Zerg base, and the owner of this shadow falling from the sky was the Queen, the Flying Queen of StarCraft 1.
It turned out that the system made such an incident to remind him that this time it was not only the "Planet Fortress" that was unlocked, but also the 2 upgrade modes of the Terran "Command Center" were unlocked, thus triggering a special combat unit of the Zerg in the Interstellar 1 era - the self-destructor, commonly known as the Bomberman.
He once again ordered the SCV to build a "command center" on the edge of the base, and control the Ibix artillery of the "Planetary Fortress" to carry out a forced attack until the base's HP drops to 40%, and use the queen's ability to "invade the main human base" to infect the "command center".
Just like the "pollution" skill of the euglena, a large amount of viscous biochemical substances enveloped the "command center" and condensed into a membrane like a fungus blanket, and the original SCV option of the production menu was replaced by a self-destructing man.
Self-Exploding Man: The queen of the Zerg can infect the main base of the Terran that has been damaged by Yanzhòng, and then infiltrate it with parasitic biotoxins. Once the main base is completely infected, the former occupants can turn into thoughtless suicide fighters who can wreak havoc on the severe, known as self-destructors.
These infected victims have been completely controlled by Overmind's will. Their bodies are twisted and deformed, producing extremely unstable chemicals, and once the self-destructors find a large number of enemies gathered together, they can detonate their bodies and release poison gas to destroy the enemy. Like other Zerg ground forces, these self-destructors can also burrow into the ground.
The resource consumption of the self-destruct person is 100 crystals, 50 gas, and occupies 1 population.
In the StarCraft 1 era, the Destruct Man can be called the unit with the highest attack power, capable of causing 500 points of explosion damage, and has a splash effect, but its health is very low, only 60 points, it is not fast, and it cannot be used in the air, so it is a melee unit.
Self-destructors also have certain flaws in operation, they must manually assign attack targets, and cannot use the "box check + A past" manipulation method, because they will stupidly ignore the hostile targets on the trajectory, and then be used as a target to explode, which is a powerful, but not very easy to use unit.
In the real world, they are naturally not as idiotic as in the game, after all, the level of AI in the Interstellar 1 era is not high, and it cannot be compared with Interstellar 2, and the game is one thing, and entering the real world is another. (To be continued......)
