Volume V, 13: Declassified
The colonel and the others actually knew all about Chen Xi's situation, and they were also clear about the reason why he was able to enter the senior group. A big rat who likes to find loopholes in the federal rules and system and then make profits, because he can see the rules of the world very clearly and thoroughly, usually these people do not have the values and morals of ordinary people, so they can't stand the lofty feeling that Chen Xi showed at this time.
This is like the feeling of seeing a big villain with deep resentment who is whitewashed into a loving and righteous person who can almost move the world in a hot-blooded anime, this kind of experience of turning from black to pink is really a process of torture and baptism and remodeling of the soul, not to mention that they are still burdened with the identity of a rape, and it is particularly eye-catching to see the appearance of this reversal.
They only knew that when they saw the people around them looking at Chen Xi with a kind of admiration and admiration, they were undoubtedly very envious, jealous and hateful, this feeling was like ants devouring their hearts, making them restless and restless, and they wanted to kill this guy who deserved to be burned like this, or use the infected to force him to become a traitor like himself.
In the eyes of those who are unbearable and despicable, destroying beautiful things often gives them a strange kind of pleasure, which is no worse than doing something that makes love.
At this time, when the people sitting on the stage were commenting on Chen Xi, the colonel and the others were also establishing a spiritual connection with the brain worm who didn't know where the Tao was through a secret method, and asked what to do with Chen Xi, which was really annoying to them, and it was best to disappear immediately. Either way.
On the other side, Kenan and others also discussed how the brain worm and the juggernaut would deal with Chen Xi.
"It should be that he will stay and become infected, because with him, in case the Terrans on the ship resist fiercely, as long as they are released, the blow to these people's three views will definitely be very serious." Comoros smiled darkly, "The power of role models is endless, and even recognized heroes can be so shameless and have no bottom line, and they don't join the Zerg family for nothing." ”
"In that case, we want to kill him. I'm afraid it will take a lot of effort and process. Judging from the performance of the Zerg on the battlefield, both the brain worm and the juggernaut value the existence of practical profits, and only when his use value is basically exhausted, we will not be stopped by them. ”
Hear the Comoros say that. Sarkozy not only opened his mouth: "I agree with the latter paragraph. The reason is good. But in the previous paragraph, I disagreed, and I didn't think that the brain worm and the juggernaut would turn him into an infected. ”
"It's not just us who have our opinions. They will more or less think about it, and there is also the issue of success rate that also needs to be considered, just look at the number of brain control worm people, you can know that after so many days of sailing, they still can't form enough control over the fleet, I'm afraid it's because the infected are not omnipotent, if they have strong willpower, and have a firm sense of morality, they should not be controlled by the infected, and if Chen Fala dies here for no reason, many people will be suspicious, When the time comes, it will have an impact on the purpose of the Juggernaut and the brainworm's planning. ”
Sarkozy said this, turned to Kenan and asked, "What do you think of the captain's words?" ”
"I agree with you, because in addition to the reasons you stated, there is another manifestation that can also reflect the limitations of the infected." Kenan nodded and said, "According to the memory instilled by the system, the Federation's current strength is very tight, if it is a covert operation, the reason for not mobilizing regular troops to use prisoners in the past can indeed be said to be in the past, but most of them are composed of criminals, but it is always a little excessive, this should be the brain control worm people of the military high-level considering the safety of infection." ”
"Criminals are obviously easier to control and safer than soldiers." Kenan said confidently, he is not a brain-controlled insect man with a red heart to the Zerg, compared to the overall interests of the Zerg, he naturally tends to kill Chen Xi as quickly as possible.
"Well, it looks like your case is a little more plausible." Comoros said dejectedly, "Actually, I would rather see it." That Chen Fala must have been wonderful when he saw that we had all become brain-controlled worms. ”
"Comoros, don't worry, I believe this scene will come soon."
"Because I feel that the purpose of the Juggernaut and the Brain Worm may not be as simple as the Colonel told us, just destroying this operation does not require full control of the entire Space Prison, as long as it can cause serious damage to it, the Federation will have to give up this operation, I think it is more likely that the Zerg want to get something they also desperately want through this operation of the Federation, and the identity of the human being is probably the best cover." Kennan said one possibility that came to mind.
"What do you want?" It's not just the Comoros who are suspicious, but Sarkozy is just as curious.
"Well, it's the so-called amazing secret in the system prompt, combined with the background of the times here, it should be an important thing that can change the situation on the battlefield, and the Zerg also want to get it."
……
Just when Kenan and the others were discussing the key to this task, Chen Xi had already discovered the abnormality in everyone's emotions.
"I don't like good people, and there is a very obvious killing intent, it seems that my previous suspicions are not unreasonable, the reason why this operation was wrong from the beginning is that some of the high-ranking officers of the ship have additional ideas."
Chen Xi is actually not surprised by this phenomenon, because human beings are both noble and inferior, in order to have a chance to survive, they are very likely to let go of their self-esteem, moral concepts, and even their own racial beliefs, not to mention, he has heard some rumors within the military about encountering Zerg troops similar to humans in local war areas, from this point of view, it is not excluded that some human beings will do something harmful to the Federation in order to live.
"Although the situation has become more complicated, it is also getting more and more interesting" Chen Xi felt the excitement of his body, and this process of pulling out the internal enemy would undoubtedly satisfy his desire to explore.
At this moment, the people on the stairs finally stopped talking, and Chen Xi found that the old man led by him was fighting.
"I believe that after listening to Chen Fala's speech. There should be no doubt in everyone's minds, so I declare that the investigation process is over, and the specific results will be announced in the afternoon. ”
"But here, I can first congratulate Sergeant Chen Fala Fara, with your merits and performance on the planet Tifa, you will have the opportunity to become a lieutenant or above, which means that you can command more troops, don't wonder if this promotion is too fast, for being able to capture brute beasts. Save the lives of your comrades. And for those who have made the operation successful, such an improvement is not surprising at all. ”
"Because I believe that you will be able to continue this perfect performance in the follow-up actions. Hit those damn bugs hard. ”
The colonel said with a smile. There was a slight regret and disappointment in his eyes.
But he was mentally prepared for this. Of the more than 100 people who had been there, only a few were left behind and turned into infected. It is considered that it is not appropriate to expose their existence until the space prison is under control. And in the message from the infected just now, the Juggernaut has decided not to infect Chen Fala but to stay.
Because it won't be long before they start another operation, and when the time comes, the person who stays behind may be the key to them deceiving the trust of the Protoss.
……
Planet PEJ-X4 is the second destination of Space Prison.
On the surface, it was a dead planet shrouded in a thick lead cloud, and the gray-black atmosphere flowed in circles and circles on the surface of the planet in a counterclockwise direction, and huge lightning bolts emerged from the clouds, which could be seen even in space. If you don't know, you will definitely think that the internal environment is very bad, because even the various instruments and equipment of the Federation, in the state of near-planetary orbit, cannot penetrate those thick lead clouds and see the situation inside the planet, and can only be judged by the external environment.
But by studying what scientists had left behind, Space Prison's technicians discovered that the planet's interior wasn't as dead and silent as it appeared.
Such a thick atmospheric environment is not a natural formation, but a kind of protection measure for the interior of the planet that the races that created the crystal buildings, preventing the super sunlight from being close to kill the creatures on the planet, making its environment hot and lacking water, which is not conducive to the reproduction of organisms.
Contrary to what seems unusually bad, the environment inside it is actually relatively mild.
According to research, there will be a small number of troops of that mysterious race on this planet, and they need to make contact with them here, but before the actual action, the technical researchers of the Space Prison still need to explain in detail to the commanders of each unit what they need to pay attention to after entering the interior of the planet.
"You can't believe it at all, this is a magical technique that existed tens of thousands of years ago, using relevant gravitational equipment and energy excitation devices to separate harmful substances from the bottom crust of the planet's surface, and by breaking them into fine particles of dust, it rises to the sky, forming a super thick cloud layer that intercepts super powerful sunlight and protects the biological evolution inside, well, I don't understand? , well, you can understand that kind of form of nuclear winter, but here is the good aspect"
"You say that this content is of no use to you, oh my God, how can you have such a stupid and ridiculous idea, on the contrary, it has a lot to do with our actions"
"It is precisely seeing this deliberate protective measure that we believe that this race belongs to a very great kind, they must be a group of nomadic life sown in the sea of stars, creating an environment conducive to the evolution of intelligent races on various planets, so we believe that they will also be easier to contact, as long as you show a certain amount of goodwill in your actions, you can communicate with them normally."
"You think that's speculation? No, no, no, it's not speculation, seeing the suppression of all kinds of energy and spiritual power by those crystal buildings, you know that this must be a race with outstanding achievements in the field of spirit and energy, of course you can see your thoughts clearly"
However, it turns out that the direction of the researchers' thinking is significantly different from that of normal people, and it is difficult to focus on the same point.
Speaking of the content of the research, the researcher was obviously a little too excited to get into the main topic for a long time. In order to end this kind of lethargic content commentary early, some people had to interrupt him frequently.
"Can you get to the point? What dangers do we need to guard against inside? One of the commanders couldn't help but ask loudly, sitting here for half an hour, listening to their tedious research content and results, and the real part that should be said was forgotten.
"You ask me, I ask whom! The information brought out from the planet Tifa is not enough at all, except that the environment inside the Zhilu Dao will be a little cold when the night comes, and the visibility will be a little low, we don't know much. The researchers complained helplessly when they said this, if a lot of information was unclear, they could at least understand some of the techniques of the above devices. It's life engineering. For those of them, the temptation is too great.
"Then you should know what creatures will be in the Dao!" Another commander reluctantly said, "If it's a horror on the planet Bitifa, we must know the specifics of it. You don't know what to do. Many people come back from Planet Tifa and still miss some of the close encounters there. Every night, I would inexplicably sit up from bed and scream. ”
He really didn't want to run into those strange creatures again, and even encountering the Zerg was a little better than this situation, at least. There is also the concept of revenge for others in my heart, and killing those troublesome creatures is not beneficial to things at all.
The researcher also knew that he couldn't say nothing, and after thinking about it, he said: "The specific danger is not clear, but according to the environment here, the eyes of the creatures on the planet may have obvious degeneration, and new organs may evolve to replace them, you need to be careful not to be confused by this characteristic, in the invisible environment, do not think that the other party is also invisible, in addition, limited to temperature changes, they will have the habit of being diurnal and nocturnal, and there may be rain or hail here at night."
That's all they know about the way, but it's better than nothing, and there's something to say when they go back.
Leaving the lecture room, Chen Xi ran into Totti on the way to assemble his troops, this Cobra soldier has now become his adjutant, and in terms of military rank, he has been promoted to captain, one higher than previously estimated, and can barely command an entire 500-strong marine brigade.
"How's it going?" Chen Xi whispered to the lip sync, since he noticed that there were many things wrong with this operation, he never made a sound when talking about important things on the battleship.
"Sir Chen, it's already done, but I still don't understand, why do you want me to pay attention to the people who go back this time." Totti replied in the same way, but with a puzzled expression. He was puzzled by what Chen Xi wanted him to do in the past few days, he was actually monitoring the people who came back from Tifa Planet this time, if it weren't for Chen Xi who saved his life and took the risk to help another part of the people, he would never obey this kind of order, you must know that his military rank was higher than Chen Xi at that time.
"I feel your confusion, I think you should have seen the problem?" Chen Xi asked without answering.
"It is true that some of them have been a little abnormal lately, not only have they become withdrawn and silent, but sometimes they suddenly show something wrong emotionally, from time to time they are irritable and angry, or they sit in a certain place in a daze, and some of them have already made a request to stay on the warship for the time being and not participate in specific operations." Totti wondered, this is exactly what he feels strange, although there is a psychological problem such as the aftermath of the battlefield, but the symptoms are not the current one.
Totti has met a number of people who suffer from the aftermath of the battlefield, and they tend to be active when there are many people, and they only have restlessness and mania when they are alone, and it is clear that these are completely opposite categories.
"Then what do you think of the many orders of the fleet this time?" Chen Xi asked again.
"In many unreasonable places, I feel that the approach is quite conservative, especially the soldiers of our Cobra unit are separated and scattered in different units, generally we are in groups of more than ten or twenty, so that we can give full play to our greatest strength, and now it is undoubtedly weakening our strength." Totti hesitated, "Are you saying that there is a problem with the upper echelons of the fleet, why should they be monitored, and that they are two sides that are not related to each other?" ”
Chen Xi didn't intend to say it directly, but let Totti figure it out by himself through step-by-step prompts.
"What do you think can be done to get humans with great power to throw themselves into the Zerg?"
"The threat of death may be counted as one, but it obviously does not carry enough weight, not everyone has the courage to turn into a monster, and as the middle and high-level of the Federation, they are often able to die after the last"
"There may be temptations of a position of power, but in terms of the system and control methods of the Zerg itself, the performance of this position of power is not better than what they have obtained now, even if they join the Zerg, they are just a group of puppets without the ability to act independently, and all major decisions will be controlled by the brain worms"
This is much more credible than directly speaking, what comes to mind by oneself is often based on personal perceptions and impressions, and will not be easily denied, sure enough, with a little hint, Totti figured it out, and showed great conviction: "You mean that substantial control, even like some of us, has the ability to influence the hearts and minds of others?" I said, why did they suddenly faint so often, if they were controlled, it would be easy to explain. ”
Totti further thought of the purpose that Chen Xi asked him to do: "You want to say that some of these people are also controlled?" ”
After speaking, Totti couldn't help but look at Chen Xi with a frightened gaze, if it weren't for the other party's reminder, he might never have imagined that the tentacles of the Zerg could go so deep into the interior of the Human Federation and turn countless people into lackeys of the Zerg.
"You guessed right, if we only sabotage this operation, as long as we rely on this part of the internal response and cooperate with the ambush set by the Zerg, we will not be able to escape at all, but obviously they have additional purposes, such as the last operation on the planet Tifa, the above statement is to train troops, but only 10,000 people were sent, it feels like a deliberate consumption at the same time, and I am afraid of losing too much."
"There's probably only one reason for them to be so careful, they want to take control of this ship and then use it to do something that we can do with our current status."
At this time, Chen Xi had already arrived at the meeting place with Totti.
The five hundred men who had been re-replenished were standing in the boarding hallway, including those whom Totti had arranged for someone to keep under watch.
Seeing that all the personnel were ready and waiting for his orders, Chen Xi not only had the urge to shout "hilehitlei", of course this is not Germany, there is no kind of big cap and turtleneck, only bulky mechanical power armor, which makes him a little discouraged, but it doesn't matter, this is just the beginning, there are still more than twenty days to use.
Facing nervous, respectful, or excited eyes, Chen Xi began his first lecture after becoming the commander of the unit.
"I want to tell you that this will be the first step in changing your own destiny, and that there is another race on this planet below the strategic cruisers, whose participation will have the potential to directly change the situation of this war, thus saving countless lives" (to be continued......
