Chapter 508: AI in the Ancient Ruins

Of course, the tranquility of the battlefield is always short-lived, and too much tranquility is rarely a good thing. ∈ ↗Nob1E team regrouped, they didn't have much of this quiet time for long. After resting in place for about 1o minutes, they encountered some new surprises.

"Get up, I'm moving here!" The emir, who was in charge of observing the battle in the distance, suddenly reminded everyone to get ready in an urgent tone, and at this time, inside a tall building in the corner of their city, they were resting and observing the Covenant troops outside.

"What's going on?" Captain Carter quickly put on his helmet and climbed to the observation position in front of the window and asked.

"It's those Covenant troops, they're getting out of the city, and that's definitely not a good thing!" The emir reported that in the last few minutes he had seen several troop transports arriving all over the city through the guò telescope.

However, unlike when the Covenant organized an attack in peacetime, these troop carriers did not rush over to put the 6th Combat Troops of the Covenant on board, but to quickly recover them, and left the city without looking back after the 6th Combat Troops boarded the ship.

Before, the evacuation of civilians in the city was relatively smooth, but now there are not many people in the city, and only sporadic exchanges of fire have been heard in the city for the past half hour. But now, this firefight has also almost completely disappeared.

Combined with the Covenant's withdrawal he had just observed, he thought of a very bad possibility, because the Covenant usually doesn't retreat, and these one-tendoned Religious Maniac Alliances usually only attack, attack and attack! Until the enemy is completely crushed.

Of course, there are exceptions, for example, when the Covenant prepares for an artillery strike, they will withdraw from dangerous positions. Thinking of this, Carter, the leader of the NOB1E team, also realized the danger. Hurry up and let your tech officer, Kate, verify her guesses.

: "Damn, radiation peak alert, very high! Very close! "As soon as Kate, the technical officer, took out the instrument and saw an alarm, indicating that a nuclear weapon had just exploded nearby. It may be that they beat the Covenant ground forces in this city too hard before, or it may be because the Covenant showed their move to evacuate civilians. In short, after withdrawing its own troops, the Covenant decided to use nuclear weapons to blow up the city and the enemy forces inside.

"How close?" Captain Carter hurriedly asked. As soon as he finished speaking, a blinding white light flashed, followed by a violent shockwave that shook the entire building.

"It's so close! Kate said as she and her teammates rushed to the building's still working sightseeing elevator. They were going to rush to a nearby anti-aircraft shelter for a while before deciding what to do.

However, as soon as they rushed out of the elevator, a violent explosion came from a relatively close place outside, and with this explosion, a Covenant troop carrier slammed into the building with a large hole. Then it fell to the open road below.

On the rooftop of the building nearly a hundred meters away from them, several figures suddenly appeared, and one of them waved in their direction. As soon as they saw the armor on these men, George and NOB1E6 recognized them as members of the expedition that had helped them before.

"Those are...?" Captain Carter asked the people around him after seeing the strange armor on the other party,

"That's right, they're the ones who help us. George answered his doubts. At this point, one of the people on the other side did some sign language to them. The meaning of the expression translates to something like this.

"This is the last time we will help, and it's up to you!" "Finish doing these sign languages. Team 1O2's Captain 6 Feng took his team members on a shuttle and left the planet, and their task of being in charge of the "nanny" NOB1E team came to an end.

On the side of the NOB1E team, although they were shocked by what had just happened, it was obvious that the other party had just used some kind of weapon to help them take out the troop carrier that might be ambushing over their heads.

They were grateful for the help of Team 1O2, but they couldn't get in touch with each other. They rushed to the air defense facility as originally planned. But it was like a short break just now, and before they could all catch their breath, a new deployment order came, and they were about to move again.

It's funny to say that the latest order is to send them to the bayonet base that they have already been to twice. After receiving the latest order from the command. They soon embarked on a journey to the bayonet base.

But according to what they knew before, it should have been completely destroyed by the Star Alliance. So, everyone is wondering what the real intention of the command is to send them over. After rushing to the perimeter of the bayonet base, they who had only been here half a day ago were a little afraid to recognize this place.

The Covenant's previous bombardment had destroyed all of the surface buildings in the area, but a small number of Covenant forces were clearing the rubble nearby, apparently trying to open a blast door in a bunker.

There's no doubt that Command sent them here for what's inside that bunker. Carter later checked this with Command, but strangely enough, even then, Command didn't specify their specific mission objectives, only told them to go in and destroy the data!

After a brief period of preparation, the NOB1E team once again fought with the Covenant 6 troops. Thanks to the weapons and ammunition given by the expedition, the battle progressed relatively smoothly.

They can now rely on their weapons to break through enemy shields quickly, instead of having to set fire to a single target to the same effect. While the scattered Covenant forces around the bayonet base put up stubborn resistance, even attempting to assault their fireline with a Banzai charge, the battle felt much easier overall than the previous one.

After entering the bunker that the Covenant forces had tried to enter before, they made a long passage through the guò, and finally, at the end of the passage, found their mission objective, a secret passage that led deeper underground.

Reluctantly, Team NOB1E eventually entered the tunnel, which led to the unknown, as required by the mission. After moving a few hundred meters underground in the elevator, they entered a huge underground space.

Here, they quickly found Dr. Halsey, who was previously believed to have died in the explosion, as well as some of the other base scientists and some of the guards. Previously, these people were believed to have died from the last Covenant strike.

Originally. This base is built on the remains of an ancient civilization, and the entire base is dedicated to the preservation and study of this relic. This is also why, even though there are already Covenant troops in the outside world, the guards did not flee with the scientists, but hid in the ruins to seize the time to pack all kinds of research materials.

The actual task of Team NOB1E is to rush over and help them pack quickly and escort an important item to the designated location. And that "specific item" is an AI chip, and it is also the AI Cortana that is planned to be allocated to the Autumn Wind Tun!

Cortana, who was scheduled to be delivered to the Autumn Wind for a special mission, was here because there was a large spherical body of light in the center of the ruin. There is a lot of light on the surface, like something that counts jù lines, and it is fixed in place.

After a long period of research, UNSC's intelligence department determined that the light object was something similar to a server, and that a small fraction of the deciphered number stored in it contained a lot of knowledge from ancient times.

Cortana's purpose here is to receive and store all the knowledge that has been passed down from other intelligent races in ancient times, whether useful or not. As for whether it is useful or not, that is something that will only have the opportunity to consider later.

"You're almost late, Captain Carter. Do you know how heavy your next task is? … Wait, what kind of weapon are you holding? Dr. Halsey was about to accuse the other party of coming for being slow in expectation, but when she saw the weapons in the hands of Team NOB1E, her tone suddenly changed.

It is used as almost all individual weapons and equipment in the UNSNETSC and Covenant sequences. However, she was pretty sure that the weapons in the hands of the NOB1E team had never seen them anywhere.

After seeing it, she didn't care what these Spartan warriors thought, and grabbed the weapons in their hands one by one and examined them carefully. Considering Dr. Halsey's status in the scientific community and the mood of their teammate George, the NOB1E team reluctantly handed over the handy weapons they had just used to each other to inspect one by one.

"Where did these weapons come from?" Dr. Halsey questioned them about the origin of these weapons as if he were asking his subordinates.

"These weapons are 'gifts' from us and their sources are classified information...... "Captain Carter of Team NOB1E replied in a barren voice. They had all received gag orders from Command, and he could not reveal the origin of the weapons or the previous missions of his two team members, 5 and 6, until further information was confirmed.

"George? Dr. Halsey saw Carter behaving like this, and asked his "son" George.

"It's true. Mom, these are indeed gifts from others. But we can't say where it came from, sorry ......" George replied with his head bowed as if he had done something wrong, and although he regarded Dr. Halsey as his mother like many other Spartan warriors, the iron-clad discipline he had cultivated during his years of military training and combat career had allowed him to keep his military secrets.

"Okay. I won't ask, but when your mission is over, I'll ask ONI to ask you to hand over these weapons, which don't seem to be particularly complicated manufacturing technology, and maybe we can also get the military-industrial complex into mass ......production after proper research."
