Chapter 18: Warframe Special Training
The day Su Zhuo was injured and fell into a coma is known as the first day of the last days. On that day, many things began to change slowly for the first time since the existence of human beings, such as human beings are the strongest creatures in the universe, such as human beings living on a beautiful and fertile earth, such as human beings being the rulers of the solar system......
Everything changed, almost irreversibly, that day, on the thousands of videos transmitted back from outer space, you can see a kilometer-long blue giant worm wriggling its knot-like body, and then the energy that can be seen by the naked eye begins to gather from the huge knotted body at the end of the tail, slowly strengthens to the head, and spews out from the open mouth. A fifty-meter-thick pillar of blue light shot towards the Battlestar thousands of kilometers away.
The sturdy Battlestar and its shield, fragile like a porcelain under the blue pillar of light, collapsed, shattered, and then a weak counterattack, relying entirely on its huge body, it was able to support under the attack of the blue pillar of light, but in the end it could not escape the fate of destruction.
But the spacefortress group, which is known as the strongest force of mankind, is not without the slightest achievement, the nuclear bomb dropped by the human space fighter and the death ray launched by the spacestar smashed the 138-kilometer-diameter meteorite at the beginning, and at least killed more than double the blue giant worm, and countless other zergs. But the advantages of the Zerg were also vividly displayed at this moment, for the endless sea of insects, the seemingly impressive battle record was actually not worth it, and in the end, a total of forty-five space fortresses exploded into countless fragments and dust.
Sixteen Battlestars have been invaded by the Zerg, and the surveillance system above faithfully transmits the footage. Although there are powerful modders on Battlestar, there is nothing they can do in the face of the raging insect tide, and a day ago, the last stubborn modder was found and died. Sixteen space fortresses have become an amusement park for the Zerg.
Su Zhuo stayed in the room for a long time, and at dinnertime, Lin Shan knocked on the door and asked Su Zhuo if he wanted to go out to eat, or he could help bring him something to eat. Su Zhuo opened the door, his eyes were a little red, and he thanked Lin Shan for his kindness. Then he said he wasn't hungry and went back. Bai Yuan watched from the side and sighed: "Let him accept this, it will be a little difficult for a while." ”
The human race was falling out too quickly, and even it took them a while for adults to digest this reality, not to mention that Su Zhuo was still a child.
Lin Shan sighed and went out with Bai Yuan.
The video of the Battlestar Su Zhuo watched it for a long time, although he knew that the situation would be similar to what happened in the fortress, but he was still constantly looking for new videos, watching those bloody pictures, his heart was also dripping blood, he wanted to escape, he didn't want to watch these things, he wanted to live in this cramped underground world like he is now. But he knew it wasn't possible.
When the disaster comes, no one is spared, these bloody hatreds, he has to look at the past one by one and remember them one by one, he has to accumulate enough hatred to force himself to work hard to move forward and grow, he wants revenge, for humanity and all the people he knows who have died or will die, no matter how strong the Zerg is, he will also use his mantis arm to block the wheel that is ruthlessly crushed.
He went to see the situation on the ground again, and when the first breach in the Battlestar defense line was blasted open, the Zerg began to invade in a big way, and the blue light that Su Zhuo encountered outside the garage was the work of a blue worm that had descended on the sky over China. For this kind of giant insect that can break through the defense of the Battlestar and is up to one kilometer, people position it as a level five or six giant worm. One landed in Yuhang, and with each spurt of blue light, thousands of houses and thousands of humans were reduced to ashes.
Fortunately, the fortunate thing is that not many of these zergs have landed on Earth, and they mainly come to deal with the strong backlash that exists on the ground. More blue worms, parked in orbit in outer space, have encircled the entire Earth, and not a single spaceship wants to fly out. The precise and ferocious blue light attack made the last of mankind's main warships hate the atmosphere.
In advance, mankind has realized the important role of monitors in this war, and hundreds of millions of monitors have been placed in all corners of the world. Now this decision proved to be wise, and when the Zerg roamed through the streets, they had no idea that their every move was being seen by thousands of people. The camera is set with permissions and passwords, as long as you have the corresponding permissions and passwords, you can cut into the status of the area you want to see.
Although there were preparations, when the disaster really came, human beings still suffered heavy casualties, and on the day Su Zhuo fell into a coma, the number of human beings plummeted by 10%, but that was not the end, but only the beginning, and today, the world's population has shrunk to the level of the end of the twentieth century. Scientists predict that it is unknown whether humanity will be able to save a billion in the next year. In just these few days, seven races in the world have disappeared forever, and in the next six months, it will reach thirty-eight. Because of its strong human and material resources, China has a considerable number of underground cities, so the losses are relatively small, and the elites are well preserved. But its huge population base has caused her to have more than 400 million casualties not long ago. On the other hand, the cramped space and the number of people who seriously exceed the standard make these underground cities more and more stretched.
There are reformers everywhere, and in this era, not all reformers are gathered under the hands of the government. Some teams have achieved fruitful results, and many have been ruthlessly extinguished by the Zerg. But the Zerg are constantly dying, and the crystal nuclei left behind give ordinary people the opportunity to become transformers, and the weak humans are beginning to become stronger day by day.
In a speech in the early hours of the morning, a head of state said emotionally: "Everything is just the beginning, human beings are the most intelligent creatures in the universe, believe in the government, and believe in yourself, we will definitely win this war." ”
At the same time as the mourning was all over the field, the cries and actions of resistance were getting louder and louder, Su Zhuo suddenly burst into tears, he stood up suddenly, pushed the door and walked out. Lin Shan Bai Yuan had already returned, and was a little surprised to see Su Zhuo, Bai Yuan asked, "Su Zhuo, are you okay?" ”
Su Zhuo nodded slightly, and he came to Lin Shan, "Captain, do you have any tasks in the near future?" ”
Lin Shan didn't speak, but looked at Su Zhuo, although he was still immature, but with a somewhat resolute face, after a while, he nodded with relief and said, "You are familiar with your battle armor first, and I will arrange tasks for you." ”
Su Zhuo nodded and returned to the room, he opened the box and looked at the gray texture of the battle armor worth 20 tons of gold. Now that the old world has collapsed, several great powers have decided to re-use gold and silver as currency and start minting gold and silver coins.
He brought up the armor, and although his mind was already occupied by what had happened outside in the past few days, at one point, he was still distracted by it again for a moment. Such a battle armor, even if it is still happy in the world, there has never been a Zerg in the past, he does not dare to dream of having it.
"It's a custom warframe, it's numbered and doesn't have a name, and when you name it, its name is registered."
Christen...... Su Zhuo thought for a moment and said, "It's better to still call him the Swift Dragon Battle Armor." He said.
Lin Shan understood the reason why he said it was still the same, he nodded, and said, "Take it, don't wear it for the time being, I'll take you to the training ground." ”
"Hmm." Su Zhuo nodded.
The elevator stopped on the -10th floor, and as soon as he went out, Su Zhuo saw a large number of soldiers here, as well as transformers dressed in various costumes, which was very wide, wider than the laboratory of Dr. Nguyen Sing, who had been to the 18th basement floor, and the lit area could stretch far away.
Lin Shan led him through the sandy road that ran through the center, walked for a long time, and stopped at an entrance, at the entrance there were two iron trees, and on top of the iron trees were artificial sun lights. Artificial sunlight shines through the leaves of the iron trees, casting dappled black shadows beneath their feet. At this time, Su Zhuo suddenly felt the presence of the wind, and his eyes couldn't help but light up, "This is really amazing!" ”
"This floor was personally arranged by Dr. Li Cheng." Lin Shan said. He walked in with Su Zhuo through the entrance, and Su Zhuo noticed that the wooden sign at the entrance read "Warframe Experimental Base" in green letters.
Some people were already inside, and a few people were waiting in line, but when they saw Lin Shan coming, these people all got up and said hello. Then a man came out and said, "Follow me." ”
It seems that this person already knows Lin Shan's intention, Su Zhuo thought to himself. They walked for a while, the sand floor gradually replaced by a metallic floor, and then they entered a glass door, behind which was a huge space that had been modernized again, with a dusty floor and a sharp dome ten meters above the ground. The entire space is cylindrical, except for the sharp, irregular conical dome.
The man left, and Lin Shan said, "Let's take a look at this armor of yours first." As he spoke, the lights dimmed, and a screen appeared directly in front of them, showing the Swift Dragon Armor.
"It weighs 13 kg and is made of peptide blue type III alloy. Increases strength by 20 times and speed by 20 times. On the left arm, there is an SD99 laser gun, which carries NK9 solar cells capable of providing 500 laser gun rounds and 20 laser cannon shells. On the right arm, there is a modified SD47 potion gun, which is a modified gun specially produced for the Zerg, and after the gun hits the Zerg, it will inject the opponent with the latest biological agent researched by Dr. Li Cheng, which can instantly destroy the nerve center of the Zerg below level 3. It has not yet been used against level 4 zergs, but at least it can paralyze the area anesthesia that is shot. ”
Su Zhuo nodded, but his heart was shocked, sure enough, it was a battle armor worth 20 tons of gold, although the laser gun bullet was only five hundred rounds, but he knew that it was completely different from the laser gun bullet of the battle armor he used before, such a bullet hitting the Zerg would definitely not be like tickling like before.
But that's not all, Lin Shan continued to introduce, the waist of the Swift Dragon Battle Armor lit up, and below the two arms, there were four launchers.
"8 pocket king snake missiles, so far, if you are lucky, one can kill a black beetle. Even if you're unlucky, three of them can kill a black beetle. However, the price of such a missile is not cheap, and one will cost at least 30 kilograms of gold. ”
"30 catties of gold ......" Su Zhuo felt that he must be pale now.
Lin Shan smiled gloating and said, "You have raised a big family that eats gold. ”
He pointed to the feet of the Swift Dragon armor again, "You should have seen the latest space suit, with thrusters on the feet, which is slightly more advanced than that, and can maintain an average speed, which is 100 yards per hour, 20 hours, or high speed, 500 yards or more, 2 hours." ”
"Okay, so that's pretty it, but now let's talk about something that might not be so pleasant." With Lin Shan's words, the battle armor disappeared, and a picture appeared in front of them. A well-trained soldier put on this armor, and then without warning, his arm was raised suddenly, the soldier screamed in pain, but the arm swung more and more sensitively and powerfully, and at the same time, the pain caused the body to tremble, but this tremor was infinitely magnified by the armor, and finally the soldier, his whole body was twisted, and his body still maintained a great tremor amplitude until he died.
Su Zhuo was already dumbfounded.
"Do you know what the sensitivity of this armor is? A hundred times the size of your original armor. Although the power and speed he brought were completely enough for this sensitivity, that kind of sensitivity was not at all something that ordinary people could control. ”
Su Zhuo fell silent, he clearly knew that he couldn't use this armor.
"So from now on, you're going to start training, I'm your instructor, you're going to learn how to harness these 20 tons of gold. And then the last thing to tell you is that this prediction lasts for three months of training and charges 1 ton of gold. ”
Su Zhuo was stunned for a moment before protesting: "You can't be so vulgar!" ”
"You have to get used to it, and everything in the last days is measured by profit." Although saying this, Lin Shan showed a hint of a smile.
Su Zhuo agreed. Seeing the value of this armor, he knew that receiving this training was completely worthwhile.
There was no nonsense, and the training began immediately. Sensitivity is not a problem that only appeared today, so the relevant training is not only on the agenda today, and the corresponding instruments are available, despite this, Lin Shan still told Su Zhuo seriously that the soldier who died unexpectedly was an ace armor warrior before, but he still died under that armor.
The door slowly closed with a loud bang, and from this moment on, he could no longer receive information from the outside, unless the Zerg attacked the door. He took one last look at the light outside the door and withdrew his gaze.
Training, sleeping, training, sleeping, sleeping are things that Lin Shan emphasizes must be done and done enough, because Su Zhuo is able to replenish energy and gain improvement through sleep. Such days are boring and monotonous, but beyond these two colors, there is a growing emotion. During this time, Lin Shan also stayed with him and didn't go anywhere. Although Su Zhuo is sometimes scolded for being bloody, he is serious about Su Zhuo's professor, and he spares no effort to take it seriously.
At the end of the first month, there was another person here, a heart-whisperer transformer, who told Su Zhuo everything in the team's battle, gestures, and problems that should be paid attention to in unexpected situations. There are also some commonly used strategies and tactics. Lin Shan noticed Su Zhuo's sensitivity to strategy and tactics, so he left for the first time, found Zheng Jun, and then invited a colonel of the Space Force to teach Su Zhuo more things than just one person.
By the end of the second month, Su Zhuo had been able to put on the dragon training armor, but he was still cautious. Outside the training center, Zheng Jun saw Su Zhuo's situation in training and said, "It seems that it will take him three months to get used to his armor." ”
"Nope." Lin Shan said, "What he needs now is not to toddle in that cramped environment." ”
"Huh?" Zheng Jun looked at Lin Shan. "Instead, go out and start trying to hunt," the latter said. ”
Zheng Jun's brows furrowed, "Is he suitable now?" What if something goes wrong? ”
"Boom!" The ground shook slightly, and Su Zhuo was testing his fist power again. His physical fitness has improved after the transformation, and he can now easily punch 300kg, and if he goes all out, he can hit close to 400kg. And under the 20 times the terrifying blessing of the Swift Dragon Battle Armor, it is 6 tons to 8 tons of power.
The two of them looked inside, and although they couldn't see anything, Zheng Jun said, "You are his instructor, listen to you." ”
"Mission?" Su Zhuo's eyes showed a glint of excitement, he had been holding back for too long, and now he felt that he could even tear apart a black beetle with one hand.
Lin Shan said: "You haven't finished training yet, so this can only be regarded as a training mission." Then he said, "The mission is in this mapper, you can see for yourself." Then he left.
Su Zhuo turned on the mapper and saw rows of text appear on it, as well as a zerg he had never seen before.
"Found a bloodthirsty demon worm near the exit, the goal is to bring back its crystal nucleus."
Bloodthirsty demon insect, Su Zhuo groaned, he had never heard the name of this kind of zerg before, now it seems that it may be a new zerg, positioned as a third-level, with a pair of silver wings as thin as cicada wings, dragging a fat and blood-red body, the whole insect looks two meters high, three or four meters long, there are many groups of barbs on the giant feet, and the blood-red mouthparts open and close, if it is really like its name, Su Zhuo can't imagine how many people's blood such a giant worm has sucked.
The door opened, and he stepped out, walking along the gravel road that smelled of a summer afternoon, from the mottled shadows of the trees to the elevator, and the Swift Dragon armor was carried in his hand. He was suddenly a little apprehensive, according to his thoughts, Lin Shan should be next to him at this time, but no.
He knew that this was what Lin Shan wanted him to understand that he had to rely on himself, both now and in the future. So he took a deep breath, the two months of training had paid off, his eyes became sharp and bold, and his heartbeat slowly returned to normal. The elevator stopped, and he appeared in the living quarters, because he wanted to see what had become of the outside, and the colonel, who had taught him strategy and tactics, told him not to fight unprepared battles.
