There was silence on the other end of the communicator, and Helen seemed to check Sue's current position, and after a dozen seconds, she said, "Let me see the Blue Scorpion's forward base." ”

Sue pointed the screen at the city with the lights shining in the distance, and then took it back. Helen held her chin in her hand, pointed her fingers in front of the screen, and said, "Judging from the order of magnitude of energy required to support these lights, this base can accommodate about 10,000 people, but obviously, they can't have that many warriors, otherwise you will directly encounter a war." However, even if the population of 10,000 includes research and logistics personnel, this scale is not small, that is, this direction will be the focus of the development of Blue Scorpion in the future. Su, I will cancel the reconnaissance operation into the interior of the base, their biological detection system is very advanced, and it will be very dangerous to approach their base. ”

"I'm not going to go into the base, I'm just going to get closer. I might have a way to deal with their biodetection system. Sue said.

"Can you fool the Blue Scorpion's human detection system? How? Oh, I forgot, even if you could, you wouldn't know how it works. When you come back, I'm going to do another thorough check-up......" When it comes to checking, Helen looks like an overclocked computer, and even through the screen, you can see her eyes sparkling.

Su was speechless for the madman and said, "I'm going to get started." "Just prepare to close the tactical board.

"Wait a minute, you take a look at this first. This was just reported from the real yàn room of the headquarters. ”

A holographic screenshot of a crawler robot replaces Helen's head. The screenshot is taken from the wreckage of the robot destroyed by Sue, which is naturally incomplete. A hemispherical part of the robot's chest is continuously magnified, and it can be seen that it is very tightly protected, and the thickness of the shell alone is close to catching up with the outer armor, while the cross-sectional view shows that this part of the material is denser and more compact in molecular structure than the outer armor.

"This is the intelligent center of the robot. By the way, the number of this guy is 307 from the internal mechanism. With Helen's voice, the intelligence center was amplified again, and a black ** domain of two or three centimeters in size was marked with a striking mark, and it kept flashing.

"It's carbonized here, but through guò's analysis of the debris, this thing should be biological, to be more specific, very similar to the brain tissue of a certain creature. If you look at the energy supply unit, yes, here it is, this container contains a nutrient solution, similar to the kind we usually use for nerve units, and there is a special transmission line between the container and the brain tissue in the intelligence center. There is also a metabolic unit that is supposed to collect waste products produced during the metabolism of brain tissue. ”

Helen's beautiful mechanical face appeared on the screen again, and she lifted her glasses and said, "I just want to tell you that those machines of the blue scorpion may be much smarter than you think." ”

"Understood." Sue replied. Helen's message is very important.

"One more thing, if it's convenient, bring a scorpion back, and you want to live." Helen said.

This is no easy task. Helen had just asked Su not to approach the forward base, but now she wanted Su to catch a live soldier back, which made Su a little speechless. However, Helen's next message dispelled Sue's dissatisfaction: "The price offered by the Dragoon Headquarters for a living Blue Scorpion warrior is 50,000. ”

Ahead was an abandoned town, ruins indistinguishable from the rest, full of crooked buildings, ruined roads, and deathly silence. Another 300 meters to the west is the base of the Blue Scorpion.

The base is already quite large.

In the center of the site is a twenty-meter-tall oval-cylindrical building, lined with rows of narrow windows that glow orange from the inside out. At the top of the building, there is a blue light strip, which is particularly dazzling at night. Apparently, the blue scorpion didn't want to hide at all.

Around the central building, there are dozens of large and small buildings, most of which are oval in shape, but also a few square buildings. One thing that is clearly in common is that all of the Blue Scorpion's buildings have only a few windows, and they are small, with blue lights flashing at the top of the buildings. Overall, Blue Scorpion's forward base tends to the surreal style of the new era, which is completely different from the retro trend of Dragon City.

At the edge of the base stands a large long building with a span roughly equal to the radius of the base, and a row of searchlights at the edge of the building illuminates the open space in front of it. A row of chariots was neatly parked in the clearing. It looks like it's a garage.

Su slowly poked his head out from the roof of the garage and counted a total of ten chariots placed in the open space, all of which had been seen before, eight troop carriers and two main chariots, and there were no new guys. His position was chosen behind the lamp, so that he could see clearly ahead without fear of being spotted by the blue scorpion. Through the exhaust window at the top of the garage, you can see that the inside is brightly lit and three combat vehicles are placed. A dozen people who looked like engineers were busy around the chariot. Rows of parts racks lay against the walls, and several robotic arms hang from the roof to assist engineers in replacing vehicle parts. This garage looks like it doubles as a repair function.

The engineers ranged in age from their twenties to their forties and fifties. But strangely enough, everyone was working quietly, and they all seemed to know exactly what they were going to do, and they didn't say a word to the people next to them, and there was not a single murmur in the huge garage except for the sound of machinery running and metal clashing. Looking at the wooden faces below, for some reason, Su suddenly remembered Helen.

On the other side of the garage, there are three cylindrical buildings with gates that rise to 10 meters from top to bottom. The doors of two of them are open, and the interior of the building can be seen all the way from Sue's perspective.

In the center of a building, there is a crawler robot! It stood still, a dozen robotic arms hanging from the high ceiling moving horizontally along the inner wall of the hangar, replacing components for it. In front of the vehicle's hull, several engineers carefully placed a hemispherical metal box on the vehicle's body. Su immediately recognized the metal box as the robot's intelligence center. A pair of robotic arms hold the intelligence hub, pushing it into the robot's chest, and then reattaching the outer armor. The robot let out a roar, and the eight electronic eyes lit up one by one. It lowered its head, looked at the busy engineers in front of the car, and then glanced at its left and right arms. Its arms are now just empty terminal connectors, and no weapons are attached. After seeing this, it fell silent, but its electronic eyes still flickered, coldly scanning the surrounding Qiē.

On the other side of the central building, a row of three-story buildings is erected, and several gates are constantly in and out, looking like a beehive of wasps.

"Dormitory area ......," Su silently marked in his heart.

The other buildings are judging by the movement of people coming in and out, some are factories, some are real yàn rooms, and there is a power station.

Su gently knocked on the garage roof under his feet, and from the feeling of bouncing back, he knew that the entire garage roof was made of lightweight special aluminum alloy. He had already seen the wall, which was made of pieces of light steel alloy of one square meter. Not just the garage, all the buildings in this base, at least the outer walls are made of metal!

Although metal raw materials were not scarce in the turbulent times, and steel, aluminum, copper, etc., could be found almost completely in the ruins, it still required a lot of energy to manufacture these metal components. It can be seen that the production capacity and energy supply level of the blue scorpion far exceed those companies that Su has seen.

There was no trace of the sentry on the perimeter of the entire base, and Su also used infrared vision to detect it, but no hidden sentry was found. Only a dozen automatic machine gun towers slowly turned, dark red electronic eyes scanning the deep darkness. But for a good hunter, avoiding this kind of electronic detection requires only an introductory technique.

However, the base is by no means as easy to infiltrate as it seems. Su spent a full hour observing the periphery, and found a very strange phenomenon, everyone in the base will avoid an invisible area when they are active, that is, whether it is a pedestrian or a vehicle a moment ago, they are still walking in a straight line, but when they get to a certain place, it is clear that there is an open space ahead, but they will detour.

There were no markings in the area, and Su had drawn a rough area based on the base activity he had observed, and then he could feel at least a dozen human detection waves shining on him through the area. He had already adjusted the organizational characteristics of his body, absorbing almost all of these detection waves, so that he was able to sneak into the base quietly.

At the top of the central building, several circular radomes are installed, as well as several rotating missile launchers. Judging from their appearance, most of these missiles are air-ground dual-purpose armor-piercing shells.

Everyone in the entire Blue Scorpion base was quiet, except for the rumbling sound of the machine, no human words could be heard at all. The door of the central building was tightly closed, and Sue had been lurking for a full hour, only to see a person entering. The access control system detects the pupil, which makes Su completely dismiss the idea of going in and probing.

Scouting by this time, it was enough. Sue began to seriously consider whether he should leave some destruction behind before leaving. However, he later dismissed the idea. Doing so will only make the blue scorpion more vigilant and even update the vigilance system. If his previous assumption was correct, the forward base was guarded by a human detection system, and the Blue Scorpion's main base should be using the same system. No matter which way you think about it, it's better not to let the blue scorpion change the system.

At this time, a sudden scolding voice attracted Su's attention, and in the silent base, this voice was particularly loud and piercing. He looked at the source of the voice with some surprise, and saw a middle-aged man in a dark blue military uniform walking over, his mouth was still cursing, and a series of unclear words popped out one after another, obviously, the person who came did not pay attention to grammar, only paid attention to the impact of a single word. His hair was very thin, his belly was large, and he even had some difficulty walking, but judging from the dense military rank insignia and ribbon medals on his shoulders and chest, he seemed to be a very high-ranking officer.

Anyway, Su finally saw something that seemed to be a living person, and he was still in a very happy mood. He watched as the fat "general" walked into a building on the fringes. The building does not require pupil inspection, and does not appear to be in place for any other defenses. According to the outline, there are roughly three floors inside, each of which is about 200 square meters.

Sue took a few steps on the roof of the garage, then jumped to his feet, leaping more than ten meters in the dark of night, and landed silently on the top of another building. He landed from the building again, and walked silently for a few steps, almost clinging to the back of a young man walking towards the dormitory, walking at the same pace as he did. The young man seemed to sense something, and looked back. The moment he turned his head, Su had flashed out from the other side of him, and circled behind the fat general's residence.

The young man, of course, saw nothing, and continued on his way. The strange thing is that during the whole process, his expression did not change at all.

Su Du saw it in his eyes. When the young man was gone, he flashed out from behind the general's quarters, gently opened the iron door of the residence, flashed inside, and then gently closed the door. It seems that the daily maintenance of this building is done very diligently, the lubrication of the door shaft and hinges is very good, and the shockproof rubber pads are carefully wrapped under the iron door, and the whole process does not make a sound at all.

The layout and furnishings on the first floor of the residence resemble a living room, with a spacious hall at the entrance. Inside, there are sofas in a modern minimalist style, and the entire wall is filled with displays. Now the screen is playing the scene of the deep sea, and sitting in this living room is like staying in a room at the bottom of the sea. It seems that this "general" still likes to enjoy it a little.

The other end of the living room is connected to the dining room, and beyond that is the kitchen. Not far from the entrance is the guardhouse where the guard gate lives. The entire floor looks like there's no one on it. But Sue didn't rush inside. His vision had been adjusted to multiple imaging, and he saw six criss-crossing infrared rays in front of him, and the magnetic field around the infrared rays felt somewhat abnormal. Su jumped up slightly, the whole person was pressed against the ceiling, and then exhaled lightly, and his body suddenly became flattened, shrinking by at least nearly five centimeters. Then, with the help of the corner, he slowly swam against the ceiling and slowly swam past the alarm mechanism in the corridor.

When Sue fell to the ground again, she heard a loud yelling from upstairs: "Fuck! Banish me to a place where there's nothing! I don't want to think about it, without Lao Tzu, where did you come from today! Now it's a good thing, the natives in this area seem to be so powerful that even the Reaper has scrapped one! He didn't send reinforcements until now, so did he let Lao Tzu rely on these two hellish harvesting 309 and 310 to resist? Pandora, you little slut, you wait for Lao Tzu, sooner or later, Lao Tzu will blow up your tender ass! ”

This madman-like invective sounded like the general was venting his feelings alone, rather than talking to anyone. Su jumped up slightly, hung his right hand on the platform on the second floor, and then slowly pulled his body up, and a saber made of composite materials had quietly slipped into his hand.

The second floor seems to be a study and office area, with a large office with luxurious decoration, and on the other side is a large room in the shape of a central control room, with screens on the entire wall, and various numbers and images constantly flickering. In front of the operating table, there were three warriors wearing blue and black military uniforms of blue scorpions, two women and one man, even from the side and rear, you could feel that they were both young and beautiful.

After the general scolded for a while, his mood seemed to be much soothed. There was a sound of a switch being flipped upstairs, and then the general replaced it with a very majestic voice: "I'm Diaste, pick me up Pandora!" ”

A sweet and soft female voice immediately sounded upstairs: "I'm sorry, Marshal Diaste, I can't fulfill your request. Now Miss Pandora has something important to do and can't talk to you. "The strange thing is that this female voice always has a familiar feeling in her ears.

"Important? What could be more important than the enemy I'm facing right now?! She has important things to do every day, when will I be able to talk to her! Although Diaste was very angry, he barely managed to control his feelings and not let the questioning turn into a rant.

The soft female voice sounded again: "I'm sorry, Marshal Diaste. Miss Pandora has already sent you reinforcements, and I believe that with your ability, you will be able to control that area. ”

"Reinforcements? Hell reinforcements! Diaste finally roared: "Three old reapers, also called reinforcements? Someone has already killed one now! As for the Larson Model 1, haven't you already made two of them, why don't you send them over? Even if it doesn't work, a few explorers are better than this old antique! Pick me up Pandora! ”

"I'm sorry, Marshal Diaste, I can't fulfill your request." When the female voice sounded for the third time, Sue finally understood why she had always felt that the voice felt strange and familiar. Helen spoke like this, and if she only listened to one sentence, then it was a cold beautiful voice. However, if you hear her say the same thing twice, you will find that the pitch, volume and even speed of speech are exactly the same, as if they were played back with a tape recorder, which makes people feel indescribably awkward.

The female voice continued: "You have already repeated the request twice in a row when you have been explicitly refused. As a reminder, Miss Pandora is now prioritized and may be upgraded to Tier 3. Assess the consequences of disrupting the prioritization. ”

There was a crisp bang upstairs, and I don't know whether the marshal turned off the communication system or simply smashed the communication terminal. Then there was the sound of heavy footsteps on the stairs, and the marshal dragged his bulky body down the stairs.
