Earth Shield Headquarters.

This place, which was originally established by the main nations of the earth and the Els, has been "occupied" by the robot forces of the Blue Star at this time.

At this time, in the hall, Damien was standing at the entrance of the Earth Shield in power armor, and behind him 9 unmanned tanks lined up to defend themselves, and the 20 robots that had no loss were missing at this time.

Behind them, the Earth Shield agent with his heart stripped of his heart had changed into a clean suit and was lying quietly on the ground next to him, covered with the Star-Spangled Banner, a symbol of freedom and democracy.

Next to the agent's body, the corpses of more than a dozen Els less than 2 meters tall were lined up...... Preliminary tests suggest that they were all poisoned, using a special toxin that has no effect on humans at all.

This particular compound is found in the El stockpiles of red wine, coffee, various sweets, and meats...... And the delivery lot on the package shows that these things are exactly what was sent from the last supply cycle.

In other words, the trucker's deliveries last week had poisoned all the Els...... They were found lying quietly on the floor, on the bed, on the sofa, in the bathtub, as if they were asleep.

As the corpses were sent out, Gina's and Riggs' faces gradually became ugly...... It's no small thing to have so many El killed and wounded!!

Although there have been larger-scale El massacres on Earth, the Els who died in that massacre were much more noble than these El civilians...... However, Mei Guoke did not have the strength of Chen Zheng to pacify the angry Elders, and even the entire national security depended on the protection provided by the Els! It can be said that the last person on the whole earth who doesn't want to or dare to turn his face with the El people is the Meiguo people.

But at this time, as many as a dozen El people died on the territory of the Mei people, and they were blocked by the supplies sent by the Mei people! If this kind of thing is known to the Els, then ...... That kind of consequence is something that Gina can't even imagine!

"It's okay...... The El will be reasonable...... Their deaths are not your fault...... Probably not. Damien, who was standing guard at the doorway in power armor, whispered to Riggs, but he was actually speaking to Gina.

For Damien, whether it's the El or some other alien, he's not afraid at all! Because the forces behind him have such confidence!

But this is not the case with Gina, whose whole face has become sallow, lifeless as if a loved one has died.

"Do you have a solution?" Riggs asked in a low voice.

“…… There is a way to have a ......" Damien was slightly embarrassed, but luckily he was wearing power armor and Riggs couldn't see his face.

"What's the solution?" Riggs asked seriously, "—if the Els retaliate?" ”

“…… Hit back? Damien said tentatively.

“……”

Riggs didn't speak, but his eyes looked as if they were about to weld through the metal shell of the power armor.

"I mean it...... Riggs spread his hands, "my boss has already killed two groups of Els...... Later, I also ran away with a ...... on Kiju Island."

“……”

Riggs opened his mouth to say something, but he found that his mind was so confused that he couldn't say a word.

Can you beat your bull 13?

Leave?

Slipped?

If Riggs's inner monologue is transformed into a barrage, it is estimated that the rest will be a quality trifecta in addition to the above.

……

Deep underground.

The 20 robots that had disappeared before were watching the El's tidal jamming device.

The controls behind these robots are naturally no longer the "strongest otaku on the surface" in the "strongest team on the surface", but a group of experts and scholars!

That's right, at this time, it is the expert group from the flower grower who controls these robots...... Of course, there are also the glasses man and Lao Xia who are connected from and from the distant blue star.

The veteran experts sat in the simulated warehouse one by one, relying on the "eyes (camera)" of the robot to feel the charm of the online game (mistakenly) with the "eyes" of the robot (mistakenly) with the help of the Sigan control device...... Ahem, it's the convenience brought by high technology.

Without leaving home, they only need to sit in the simulated warehouse, and the next second they seem to be standing on the land of Meiguo, studying the tidal interference device that the people of Meiguo have not caught any fur! This feeling is really ...... for the old experts of the flower grower.

“…… I'm the first time I've been on a sedan chair! It's incredible! If you look at the robot hand, it's so delicate, if I didn't feel it, I would have thought it was my own hand. Like a child getting a new toy, a respected old expert excitedly communicated with the metal bump next to him......

…… Of course, the metal bump next to him was also controlled by a flower grower's technical bull.

"yes...... You look at that thing from me...... Hey hey I put it down and get a pen...... Look! I can even write with it! Hehehe...... It's fun. ”

"Hey, hey, hey......" (some metal bump bouncing)

"Shhh...... Whew......" (A metal bump is doing tai chi.) ）

“……”

At this time, the respected experts did not know that the video data of the entire scene was sent to China for real-time live broadcast - although the local flower grower did not have the conditions to directly connect to the front, but it was very simple to obtain the video data of the scene.

Then the other experts sitting in the live broadcast hall were dumbfounded and watched the funny old naughty boys on the screen......

…… It's a shameful feeling!

……

Of course, the experts were only new to the sensory control device, so they were just curious.

In fact, these robots produced by NORINCO are far worse than the original version of Blue Star in terms of flexibility and response speed, which has also been complained about by the otaku of the "strongest team on the surface".

But for the old experts who are not sensitive to the response speed, these robots that are complained about by otaku as "old people's machines" are very, very easy to use.

In a sense, these robots that don't feel so "silky" are called senile machines. (laughing carry face)

After the novelty, the experts did not forget their essential task after all, and soon entered the working state after adapting to the manipulation mode.

The El's tidal jamming device is valuable to study, both for Bluestar and for the Flower Grower. This is especially true for the rest of the planet – a thorough study of the device has always been a dream of it.

However, after inspecting this thing on the spot, I will find that this thing is simply something that only the local tyrants of the Star Road can afford! When this thing is usually maintained, it needs about 500 grams of zero crystals per day! And when a tidal link is forcibly connected, this consumption will increase exponentially!!

What is the concept of 500 g/day consumption? The Blue Star Base has worked hard to fight the bugs, and the zero crystals saved in a year are not enough for the earth to use for a month!!

For the Els, the consumption of 15 kilograms of zero crystals per month is nothing, and the zero crystals required to transport a set of standard armor used by the El Apostles are more than 120 kilograms - that is, the weight of the standard armor of the El Apostles.

Calculate that the Els on the teleportation standard armor alone consumed more than 2 tons of zero crystals!! Plus other equipment, personnel...... It's just a small stronghold on Earth, and the amount of zero crystals it consumes is extremely staggering!!

Compared to the El people's big spending, the Blue Star Base is much more calculated...... Chen Zheng: When they use zero crystals, they all calculate grams.

From this point, it can be seen that the El people are worthy of being the top star path forces! The value of a single outpost is far greater than the sum of all the fixed assets of the entire planet - except, of course, the humans themselves.

On the Star Path, slaves are hard currency like Zero Crystal, and everything else on Earth ...... Will aliens want your house? Are aliens rare on your phone? No, with the exception of certain precious metals and rare elements, everything on Earth is worthless at the level of the Star Path.

Although the tidal jamming device is the guarantee of the safety of the earth, for the poor boy of the earth, it is like a rich lady who is high, although she wants to marry home, but unless the earth civilization sells its people as slaves to aliens, it can't even afford a day's rations!!

Not only can't the earth afford it, but Chen Zheng's Blue Star can't afford to supply this gold-swallowing beast.

To sum up, the most fundamental question now is not whether it can be repaired or whether the man with glasses can kill the virus, but another more difficult problem......

“…… So, how long will it last? Chen Zheng's voice sounded beside the man with glasses.

"About 15 days." Damien pushed his glasses and said.

“…… I see, let me think again. ”

After saying that, Chen Zheng disconnected the link and sat on the ground full of debris.

At the time of receiving the news that the tidal jamming device had been damaged, Chen Zheng was installing the penultimate key device to secure the tide gate.

In other words, at this time, he only had the zero crystal of the last key device left in his hand - its total weight was less than two kilograms. Even if these zero crystals are contributed, there will still be less than 20 days left for the earth.

The energy consumption of the tidal jamming device greatly surprised Chen Zheng! He never thought it was a gold-eating beast! I knew it was like this......

But what kind of regret medicine is there in the world? Nothing was foreseen.

As long as there are enough rational human beings, it is not difficult to come to a conclusion at this critical moment: to find alternative energy sources.

And there is only one alternative energy solution, and that is electricity.

Electricity is the only energy source that can be manufactured and supplied on a large scale in human society. What other mechanical energy, thermal energy...... There is no energy supply at all, and it can only be converted into electrical energy to drive a tidal jamming device like this.

However, the operation of the tidal jammer does not actually require electricity, but directly converts the zero crystal into a form of energy that is not yet incomprehensible to the current technology of the earth, and then directly acts on the entire system.

So when an expert shuddered and dismantled a small section of the shell, he found that there was not even a single wire inside the jamming device!

This level of technology is completely beyond the scope of earth technology.

But there is only one way to do it in front of the earthlings! This machine, which doesn't even have internal wires, had to be converted into an electric one! And it is necessary to run the entire science and technology route in just ten days...... It's impossible to look at it!

Chen Zheng is now facing an extremely difficult choice - is to put the remaining zero crystals into the fixed tide gate in order to save the crisis of the blue star and leave a way back for mankind? Or do you put these two kilograms of zero crystals into a tidal jamming device and expect the experts to develop and implement the entire solution within 19 days?

Whatever the choice, it's all or nothing.

What should I do?
