Chapter 116: Iron Man's Death?
The cloak swings, revealing a rugged body of steel.
Xia Ming landed beside Hancock, and the wooden staircase was a little unable to withstand the force, and shook visibly.
With the palm of his mechanical hand stretched, Xia Ming snatched away the crystal skull in Hancock's hand, and grabbed his neck with the other hand.
At that moment, there was a loud bang somewhere on the second floor, like a balloon the size of a house being punctured, and the glass on all the windows creaked and cracked.
It was a gunshot, and before the gunfire could shake the glass, a ball of sparks exploded on Xia Ming's legs. The mechanical body shook and nearly fell to one knee.
"Mr. Xia, you have seen the performance in Seychelles all over the world, do you think that if you put on this iron skin, you will become an all-powerful Iron Man?"
A burly man dressed in heavy dragon scale armor body armor appeared, with no markings on his chest and shoulders, and a large sniper rifle in his hand.
The stubby barrel and the muzzle-shaped horn-shaped brake show that it is not an ordinary sniper rifle.
Barrett XM109, strictly speaking it is not a gun, the caliber of 25mm should be classified as a gun.
Several men in the same attire then appeared, armed with what appeared to be SCAR assault rifles, with long barrels.
Hancock took the opportunity to get out and shouted as he left: "Don't kill him!" ”
"Mr. Hancock's request is more difficult unless you fully cooperate, Mr. Xia."
The first person to appear should be the leader, who propped up the tripod of the sniper "cannon" on the railing, pointed the muzzle of the gun at Xia Ming's chest, and said coldly: "Turn off the power armor immediately!" Otherwise, I'll break your other leg! Don't expect to escape on one leg, the bullets in other people's guns are not ordinary armor-piercing shells, and armored vehicles can also penetrate them. ”
"You are Yang Yuanchang's people?" In the speaker, Xia Ming was still stable and comfortable, and he couldn't hear any signs of being hit hard.
Yang Yuanchang ...... It's just a dog", the leader said with disdain.
Xia Ming sighed: "Your boss is the U.S. government. Or the Pentagon, or the CIA, in short, the gang of people who shout that the United States leads the world, right? ”
"Mr. Xia, the shot just now may have closed your nerves, but if you continue to talk poorly, when your perception recovers, you will go insane in pain, I advise you to ......"
The leader's advice was only halfway through, and Xia Ming suddenly raised his hand in a standard shot put throwing posture. Throw the crystal skull in your hand towards the window.
The window panes had been shattered by the sound of gunfire, and the skulls had easily pierced through into the deep night.
"Damn! Find it back! ”
While the leader shouted, he pulled the trigger, and another ball of sparks exploded on Xia Ming's other leg, and now he could no longer maintain his balance, so he could only grab the railing with his hand to prevent himself from falling.
I heard Xia Ming laugh and said, "It's too late......"
This tone, how does it look like both legs have been broken by a 25mm caliber weapon?
Something came to the mind. He took a breath and shouted, "Retreat!" ”
It was too late, and a dazzling white light lit up from Xia Ming's body, engulfing the entire hall in an instant.
Outside the museum. A commercial vehicle is parked near the gate, and the main building can be seen through the iron fence.
"The XM109 project has long been stopped, and if they can get this, it must be the Pentagon......"
Wen Dehua was muttering. A dazzling white light lit up in the direction of the main building, followed by a loud and earth-shattering bang. There seemed to be a violently expanding monster on the first floor of the main building, instantly crushing the wall. A large cloud of smoke and dust was spewed, and the ground shook violently.
I said...... Xiaowen, what kind of three-ring metal hydrogen explosive-drug did you give me, where is the power of five times that of TNT, at least ten times! ”
The shock wave came with gravel and all kinds of debris, and Wen Dehua hugged his head and lay down, still able to hear Xia Ming's nagging.
"I originally thought that I would blow up the inside, but before the police arrived, I could catch one or two wounded people and ask for something, but now it's good."
Xia Ming looked up, looked at the main building that was already wrapped in smoke and dust, and sighed: "The whole building is about to collapse, I hope that Hancock is still alive." ”
The cloaked man who broke into the museum was not Xia Ming, but the power armor he controlled, which was just a repetition of the old trick. However, except for Wen Dehua beside him, and Xiaotang Lin Cheng, no one knows this secret.
Of course, Xia Ming was not stupid enough to put on a power armor and run to the enemy's territory to open the Wushuang. Facts have also proved that when there is no breakthrough in material and energy technology, it is impossible for individuals to succeed in heroes by relying on power armor. Just like just now, as soon as the XM109 came out, the power armor knelt.
With this in mind in advance, Xia Ming added some material to the counterweight dummy in this power armor.
Thermite is used to destroy the computer and control components in the power armor, and the white light just now is emitted by thermite. Metallic hydrogen explosives are used to destroy parts, destroy evidence, and create chaos.
Unexpectedly, the metal hydrogen explosives that Wen Dehua found from the black market were too powerful, and they directly leveled an entire floor, and it should be impossible for the elite of the Pentagon to survive.
"Boss, the police are coming! Shall we leave first, and then come back to that thing later? ”
Wen Dehua held the steering wheel, his palms were full of sweat, it was really exciting......
"No, I know where."
Xia Ming pointed out the direction to Wen Dehua, and after a while, the business car drove to the other side of the museum. The two got out of the car, Xia Ming walked towards the stream below the road, and Wen Dehua was vigilant around.
Seeing Xia Ming stepping into the creek and picking up some things from the grass and stream, it was naturally as if he had arranged it himself, and the shock in Wen Dehua's heart surged like waves.
Looking at the distance between the creek and the main building of the museum, it is at least 100 meters, and Wen Dehua secretly smacked his tongue again, if he threw a grenade, he would have broken the world record.
"Alright, let's go!"
Xia Ming held something in his hand and returned to the car.
Wen Dehua couldn't help but ask, "Aren't you looking for that skull?" ”
In the car just now, Xia Ming forwarded the perspective image of the power armor to his mobile phone, and asked Wen Dehua to help observe the situation. Although I didn't hear Xia Ming say anything to the old man named Hancock, the crystal skull in the old man's hand was very eye-catching, and Xia Ming snatched this thing for the first time, which also proved that this thing was not trivial.
"That's someone's treasure, how can you be embarrassed to take it."
Xia Ming joked, but said in his heart, the second part. Finally got it.
After salvaging the anchor module in the waters of the Seychelles and triggering the integrity verification, Xia Ming confirmed that the organization behind Yang Yuanchang had one in his hands, which was told to him by Professor Xu's memory when he communicated with Professor Xu's consciousness.
But he never expected that he would get this component so smoothly.
He held three dusty translucent stones in his hands, just like ordinary pebbles, but in his senses, they were emitting strange fluctuations. This fluctuation is the same as when R3AI sensed Qianyan and judged it to be room for expansion.
As a matter of fact. He manipulated the power armor, and when he first saw the crystal skull, although he didn't have the strong feeling he had when he touched it with his own hands now, he still noticed the three things that had been made into teeth.
R3AI has also moved, reporting that "anchor components have been found".
If he hadn't wanted to hear Hancock's story, he would have wanted to grab something.
This trip is really rewarding......
The van drove through the streets of Annapolis toward the airport, staggered by a line of police officers with piercing sirens.
Hancock is a self-righteous idiot......
Xia Ming speculated that the components found by Hancock's ancestors also had the same shell. Otherwise, it wouldn't have taken ten years to get it open. However, it is impossible to determine whether the shape of the component is the same as the one in his hand.
The two components should have different functions, the one he got in the Seychelles, is a pure power in induction. And these three small stones. But it seems to contain some information, with obvious aggression.
He asked R3AI, "What is the specific function of this component?" ”
"The structure has been destroyed and only has the function of verifying the integrity of the anchor mark."
R3AI's answer made Xia Ming suddenly brightened. This component was not originally like three small stones, but as a whole. So Hancock's ancestors could hear "whispers of the heart" like R3AI. Then the component is damaged and loses this functionality.
As for that feature. Xia Ming also has a guess, maybe it's R3AI!
Of course, more than 100 years ago, there were no computers and no concept of artificial intelligence, so at that time, R3AI could only be a mysterious thing like "whispering in the heart".
He asked R3AI if this speculation was correct, to which R3AI responded, "No record of ......"
Perhaps, R3AI is not the only thing.
Xia Ming asked again, and R3AI continued to respond that it could not be confirmed, so he did not pursue it.
Now I got two components, and one component from the warlords in Madagascar. As long as you collect three dragon balls...... Uh-huh, three components, there should be a discovery.
Hancock's "divine inspiration" may have been something like R3AI at first, but after the component was damaged, the situation was different.
Hancock said that this thing had given their family a prophetic deduction wisdom for generations, which made Xia Ming think of his and Xiao Huan's brain mutations. Perhaps this component still has the function of stimulating the human brain after losing the "intelligent prompt" similar to R3AI.
This stimulus caused the brains of Hancock's ancestors to mutate, and the subsequent generations have kept this thing, so that the mutation has deepened, and the brain has also changed in intelligence accordingly.
In addition, the Hancock family has been engaged in social research for hundreds of years and has accumulated a large amount of data, which has virtually established a more reasonable model, allowing them to grasp the changes in society more accurately.
In other words, the Hancock family is nothing more than a radiation of some kind of energy, and in the field of sociology, the intelligence is far beyond the ordinary.
It's ridiculous that Hancock combines this ability with a fragmented understanding of components, believing that he is in control of the fate of humanity as a whole.
That's why Xia Ming said that his authority was higher than Hancock's.
Hancock's affairs were put aside for now, and just like the information that Hancock leaked in his unfinished words, the organization he promoted had split. Professor Xu wants to unravel the secret of "God's Enlightenment" with the attitude of scientists, but Yang Yuanchang has more ideas about "God's Enlightenment", and now it can be confirmed that there is at least Pentagon power behind Yang Yuanchang.
Next, he will face Yang Yuanchang, and Xia Ming will no longer waste brain cells to make useless deductions, but so far, he still has a question that has not been answered.
What do these things have to do with Lin Qianyan?
Of the four people killed two years ago, three of them were Yang Yuanchang's targets, and Lin Qianyan seemed to have suffered an unwarranted disaster.
But why did Xiaotang see Lin Qianyan's "ghost" and join Professor Xu's research institute because of this? And the reason why he was put on by R3AI and mixed into the whole thing seems to be only related to Lin Qianyan.
Let's take it step by step, solve Yang Yuanchang first, Xia Ming thought so.
I hope that old man Hancock is still alive, and maybe I will need to listen to his story in the future.
It was the third day back at the hotel in San Francisco, and Xiaotang had rushed over from Canada.
"I'm afraid that you will think of yourself as Iron Man", in Xia Ming's suite, Xiaotang threw a newspaper to him: "We still have to solve Yang Yuanchang, you come out like this, there will be no adverse effects?" ”
It was the Washington Post, and the social news section ran a story about the explosion at the Lafield Museum, but the headline was interesting: "Iron Man Falls."
The Yankees investigated the explosion at a very high technical level, and quickly identified the center of the explosion, using metal detectors and computer simulations to piece together traces of power armor.
"Just running for Tony Stark's handsome shot, I must build that kind of power armor in my life", Xia Ming joked.
Although the police discovered the existence of power armor, they could not find any complete parts, and even the skeleton was burned with thermite. Moreover, the power armor he brought was a special model, which was different from the structure of Saudi Arabia and Huaxia, and in terms of solid evidence, the Yankees could not implicate him.
Moreover, there are well-equipped military corpses at the scene, this matter will definitely be covered up by the upper echelons, and it is impossible to chase it down, let alone directly target Xia Ming.
Of course, under any other name, it is not impossible to invite Xia Ming into the urn.
"I'll make some preparations first", Xia Ming decided to dig some pits as a hindsight.
He asked Xiaotang: "What about your side, it's all done?" ”
Xiaotang raised her delicate chin thirty degrees: "The tyranny of the old king will be overthrown, loyal and brave knights, follow your queen and take over the entire kingdom!" ”
Xia Ming grabbed her waist from behind: "The knight is here to offer loyalty, but bravery, can it be understood that you are hinting at something?" For example...... A knight's sword? ”
Xiaotang's body stiffened obviously, and his breathing became a little short. Although he naturally slapped Xia Ming's hand groping downward, his voice trembled a little: "We are scientists, not writers, don't add that kind of thing that can't be accurately defined into the beaker!" ”
Such a change is very subtle, it is impossible for ordinary people to notice, but for Xia Ming's senses, it is a very obvious signal.
He gently took the girl's earlobe in his mouth and muttered vaguely, "Let's go to a decisive battle, if anything......"
"Shut up, I don't listen to this kind of nonsense."
The girl murmured, a low moan coming out of her throat.
She snuggled in Xia Ming's arms, her body gradually softened, her breathing became more and more rough, and her face was flushed.
"Hold Me ......"
She spoke with difficulty, and as soon as she said two words, she was turned around by Xia Ming and kissed gently.
After a long time, Xia Ming looked at her and sighed: "I'm scared, so let's treat it as a dessert after the celebration banquet." ”
Xiaotang was stunned, and then a pair of willow eyebrows rose: "Afraid? ”
"Hmm...... I'm afraid that the hibiscus tent will be warm in the spring dawn, and tomorrow Xiaoxia won't go to court, ouch! Xia Ming said with a smile on his face, and then jumped up holding his feet.
"Sorry, this king doesn't serve dessert here!" Xiaotang hugged his arms and walked away in a huff, mentally and physically ready, but this kid flinched...... (To be continued.) )
