Chapter 185: Before the Decisive Battle
"But I don't have the ability to go back in time now." Rita said thoughtfully.
Mawson makes a bold guess, "Think about what you're losing the ability to reset time. β
"Is it because of blood transfusions?"
Mawson shook his head, "No, that's just the result, the real reason is because you were too badly injured in the battle, which caused a lot of blood and fluid to be lost." β
"As a result, a special substance contained in the body is missing along with the blood 'fluid', so you lose the ability to reset time."
"Because the absence of this special substance makes the alpha's ability incomplete, I guess that the alpha in the complete state can even freely choose how long to go back, instead of passively starting from a certain node like you."
Mawson thought carefully for a while, "Rita, think about it carefully, since you have acquired this ability, have you felt that you have received an unusually large number of attacks in battle, and it is easier to attract attacks from alien creatures?"
Rita thought for a moment and nodded thoughtfully, "I've never noticed this situation before, and when you say that, I suddenly realized that indeed, since I gained the ability of Alpha, every battle has been extremely difficult, and I need to die many times repeatedly. β
"According to your inference, this is Alpha or Omega deliberately increasing the number of monsters targeting me, but I have never acted alone, so it has never found too good an opportunity."
Speaking of which, a flash of inspiration flashed through Rita's mind, if we take the initiative to create this opportunity for it, you say...... Can you attract that alpha again? β
Mawson was also impressed, "There is indeed a possibility, we can give it a try." β
Next, the two carefully discussed the feasibility of the plan, put forward various ideas, and planned to find an opportunity to test it after returning to the base.
The plane rushed back to the Verdun base with Mawsen and others, and it was already late, so Mosenso did not leave, just so that he could act with Rita the next day.
Nothing was said all night.
The next morning, after getting up, Mawson went directly to the camp to look for Rita, but who would have thought that he would pounce.
"You mean Rita was picked up by a plane last night?" Mawson asked with a frown.
"Do you know what to do?"
"After we came back yesterday, we first went to the medical team to observe and bandage the wounds on our bodies, and by the time we returned to the camp, it was already late at night."
"As soon as everyone was about to sleep, the colonel brought someone over and put Rita directly on the plane."
"I heard a few words about her going to make a few public speeches and propaganda as if she was going to cooperate with the army's next recruitment plan."
"At this time, I guess I have already left Europe."
After yesterday's incident, the black Jim changed his previous attitude, admired Mawson, and told Mawson what happened without hesitation.
Just got some clues, but before Mawson could execute it, the plan to trap Alpha was stillborn.
He himself is definitely not good, the alpha blood "liquid" contained in his body is too little, he has been wandering around the war zone alone for a month, and he has not been attacked like Rita, obviously, Alpha is not interested in the blood in his body.
Mawson thought about it carefully, and he vaguely remembered that there didn't seem to be this process in the movie.
After experiencing the Battle of Farden in the film, Rita served in the army and was not transferred out of the war zone for propaganda work.
It seems that this is because of Rita's unauthorized actions yesterday, which made the commander in London feel some crisis.
After Mawson came to this world, he didn't participate in too many things, and the general direction basically didn't change.
According to the inertia of the plot, before the decisive battle, the male protagonist Cage should also be sent to the battlefield, and by chance kill an alpha to obtain the blood "fluid" on its body.
At that time, Mawson can use the connection between Cage and Omega to find Omega's location and capture it to complete the mission.
However, Rita's sudden departure still made him feel some crisis, and the plot had begun to deflect, and everything began to become unknown.
For the next period of time, Mawson never saw Rita again, and he continued to wander the war zone alone, killing countless monsters, and the blade of the fallen became sharper and sharper, but the shadow of the alpha never appeared.
On the other hand, with Rita joining, the entire recruitment work has become in full swing, and she frequently appears in newspapers and television, and for a time she has become an idol for young people all over the world.
The ranks of the military also rose with the tide.
Before wearing mechanical armor, the average human soldier had little chance of winning against alien creatures.
Therefore, the training of the entire army is divided into two parts, and the rear battlefield is mainly for soldier screening, sending soldiers who meet the physical fitness and will standards to the front battlefield, and then carrying out basic armor running-in training.
Even with such harsh conditions for recruitment, under Rita's massive publicity, batches of recruits were sent to the front battlefield.
Humanity seems to have begun a large-scale counteroffensive war.
Over the next two months, first breaking the Luxembourg blockade and then pushing the war into German territory, the ultimate showdown was about to take place.
Mawson knows that the plot has finally reached a critical moment.
The day before Armageddon.
Early in the morning, a steady stream of supplies was delivered to the base, and the entire airport was a busy scene.
But at this time, on a pile of supplies and supplies lay a handsome young man in an officer's uniform and handcuffs.
He is none other than William Cage, the main character in the movie.
Cage was originally the U.S. military's media attachΓ©, and his main purpose in coming to the European theater was to cover the entire battle.
According to the operational guidelines of the generals of the European command, after the start of the war, the joint defense forces will enter directly from France, Scandinavia in the Mediterranean.
Relieve the pressure on the eastern front so that the Russian and Chinese forces can drive the enemy back, then assemble the whole army in the center and slay the monsters along the way.
The general wanted to report the battle truthfully, so he planned to send Cage to lead a filming team to shoot on the beach where the first wave of attacks was launched.
The number of monsters in the location chosen by the general for filming is not too large, and the battle is tense but not dangerous, so the shooting effect should be very good.
It's a pity that Cage, who is greedy for life and afraid of death, not only rejected the general, but also planned to use the power of the media to maliciously discredit the battle plan.
"Where am I?" Cage opened his eyes in confusion and looked around.
"Stand up, you piece of shit!" A black officer shouted.
"Don't talk to the chief like that, sergeant!" Cage scrambled to his feet from the ground and glared angrily.
"That's how I treat recruits."
The sergeant looked disdainfully at Cage's officer uniform, the rank on his shoulder was ripped off, and he took Cage for a grandstanding clown.
His face turned cold.
"If you're not obedient, I'll shove your shoes in your ass next!"
