Chapter XVIII The Pentagon
"It's like some kind of molecular armor that can regenerate itself, oh my God...... Which country's technology is this, Russia's? Or Chinese? Or maybe it's something that was developed by a big, ambitious company...... Like in the movies? ”
"No matter what it is, but we at least know that the 30mm caliber high-temperature armor-piercing projectiles equipped on the Pimple Pig attack aircraft are capable of penetrating it."
"I remember that armor-piercing projectile could produce 6,000 degrees Fahrenheit, and oh my God, I thought there was nothing else for us to use with that kind of monster weapon except for the main battle tank."
"Six thousand degrees...... Almost, in short, a weapon that is enough to melt the armor of a tank seems to be able to hurt those flails......"
"Then immediately notify the front-line command and tell them that our most effective weapon is a high-heat armor-piercing projectile, which is the kind of aviation cannon equipped with the pig, and let them immediately popularize this kind of weapon, because those steel monsters may launch a second attack at any time."
……
Time is extremely precious, so even on the transport plane transporting the remains of survivors and sneak attackers, the U.S. military organized several survivor representatives, with weapons analysis experts in the base, to try to find out the weaknesses of those steel monsters, fortunately, such a step was not in vain, and soon they found effective weapons against Cybertrons from the bullet holes in some wreckage.
At the same time, there was a sudden slight heat in the brand emblems of the players, and the U.S. military prestige item exchange item inside had undergone a slight change, with an additional special additional item exchange column, and the most eye-catching weapon in it was a 40mm caliber individual burst howitzer, which can fire high-temperature armor-piercing shells, in addition to ordinary damage, it can also cause a lot of additional damage to Cybertrons, which is the best weapon to deal with the Decepticons.
However, although the reputation level required for this weapon is very low, it can be purchased only with respect, and the price is not particularly expensive, but it has an additional restriction that cannot be brought out of the original plane and can only be used by those who have reached the reputation requirements (that is, it cannot be purchased by people who have reached the prestige requirements, and then sold to other people whose reputation does not meet the requirements), which can be regarded as good and bad. And at present, no one among the gamers has been able to reach the prestige level of the esteemed level.
……“
After more than ten hours of travel, the plane finally reached its destination.
As soon as they got off the plane, a large group of heavily armed soldiers surrounded them and escorted them all the way to the Pentagon, where the US Department of Redefense is located, the highest military command organ of the United States.
In a hall full of computer monitors and staff coming and going, Lilin finally meets the key figure of the U.S. military, U.S. Secretary of Defense John Keller.
This white-haired, red-faced chubby old man does not have the temperament of a military attache at all, and if he only looks at him, he can't see that he actually has the great power to mobilize the most powerful human army in the world.
The white-haired old man looked at the sixteen survivors of the attack on the base, nodded, and motioned for them to follow him all the way to a conference hall.
"Gentlemen...... Lady...... First of all, on behalf of my country, I would like to extend a warm welcome to you and feel great sorrow for those soldiers who have unfortunately lost their lives for their country...... I hereby solemnly pledge that whatever country this attack comes from, we will pay a terrible price for him. Not a drop of the blood of our soldiers of the United States of America can be shed in vain! ”
"Gentlemen...... Ladies...... But now, I want to know, what exactly is in front of you on the front line...... Exactly, what happened to ......"
……
The meeting lasted several hours, and a group of senior U.S. military officials, led by Defense Secretary John Sr., asked questions about what they had for dinner before the attack almost all the time.
The players also follow the unwritten old rules in the fantasy space, and try to describe what they see and hear as truthfully as possible, without attaching any of their own speculations and opinions.
Because this kind of thing is very common, those spoilers who have just entered the fantasy space and have some understanding of the plot often regard themselves as omniscient prophets, arbitrarily revealing all kinds of secrets, digging up all kinds of hidden plots, and even triggering those follow-up plots that have not yet been triggered in advance. ,
Strictly speaking, it's not impossible, and it's easy to bring great benefits to the players. But...... It also often triggers the exclusion and punishment of the space, which leads to very bad consequences.
For example, someone once entered the plane of the movie version of "Iron Man", and as soon as he entered, he told Tony Sitz Tucker that the mastermind behind his assassination was the bald old man he respected the most, his uncle. I hope to use this to improve my personal friendship with Tony Sitz Tucker.
The arrogant arms dealer didn't give him any chance to prove his claim, but told the man behind it as a joke...... The result is naturally tragic, due to the effect of the butterfly effect, Tony Sitz Tucker died in a sudden, but undeserved assassination, and the self-proclaimed clever spoiler was directly deducted points from the illusion space because he could not complete the main story mission.
There are actually a lot of things like this, and over time, players have developed a habit of not being completely sure, at least they must be prepared to have enough survival points to pay for the failure of the mission, otherwise, everything is still as good as possible along the main plot.
Now, even though the survivors almost broke their tongues that the attackers were a group of mechanical giants that could not have existed on Earth, the senior military officials were still there whispering about whether China, Iran, North Korea, or Russia planned the terrorist attack. The gamers didn't bother to talk to them either.
When the meeting was dismissed, Rilin and the others were given the right to move around the neighborhood as they pleased, which amounted to a disguised vacation, but they could not travel too far away, and they had to keep their communication open so that they could be contacted at any time.
After such a toss, the gamers were given a certain amount of free time, and immediately someone suggested to find the male protagonist, to see his sexy and coquettish girlfriend, and his yellow Chevrolet sports car, which can even help the owner pick up girls.
Of course, their real goal is to find a way to turn on the Autobot's reputation system as soon as possible. You must know that there are many prestige exchange items that are limited in quantity, especially for a minority like the Bopai Autobots, and many precious items, props or equipment, are limited to only one, so it's always good to be able to farm reputation one step earlier.
Of course, there are also people who plan to increase the prestige of the US military by continuing to work for the military. Although the various exchange items of the US military are far less advanced than the exchange items of the Autobots, the prestige of the US military is relatively easy to brush, and there are indeed more practical things to exchange in the later stage, not to mention that an all-terrain Humvee off-road vehicle or a Black Hawk helicopter can be used in many plot planes.
"What about us?"
When the other players dispersed, the puppeteer, the sword hero, and the little butler all set their eyes on Lilin. Lilin's gaze turned to another place not far away......
There, a chubby black man and a blonde girl were escorted to an interrogation room by several armed men wearing Yang Si badges.
Lilin casually pulled a hurried staff member over, pointed to the two people and asked, "Who are those two children?" How did you get here? ”
The staff member was clearly in a hurry, and in fact, the whole Pentagon was like a pot exploding, and everyone was busy with nervous faces, even though the work they were doing was of no use other than wasting taxpayers' taxes.
The staff member who was caught by Rilling soon found that it was ineffective to break free, so he chose to answer Rilling's question: "That girl was one of the analysts hired by the Secretary of Defense to decipher the signals of the mysterious intruder, but she later secretly copied this information and then took it out of the Pentagon. And I don't know what the little fat man did, only that she was arrested with the girl. ”
I see......
Rielin let go of the staff member and looked at the closed door of the interrogation room, seemingly lost in thought.
"The host...... Those two people seem to be like ......" The little butler stepped forward, looked at Lilin and said: "It seems that in the original plot of the movie, the key person who successfully deciphered the Decepticons' invasion of the US military intelligence network signals?" ”
Lilin nodded in agreement, that girl is nothing, it's just a trick to connect the plot, but that little black fat man is not simple......
The Decepticons' electronic technology is not known how far ahead of the humans of Earth is so they can hack into the U.S. military's intelligence system within a minute.
And this somewhat neurotic crazy little fat man is able to decipher the secret messages of the Decepticons in a few seconds, and from the electromagnetic signals of those alien technologies, he has cracked out key information including "Megatron", "Iceman Project", "District 7", and the male protagonist "Wikivac".
……
There is a more one later.
