Chapter 41: Before the Great War
"Brother, do you think the Self-Defense Forces will win?"
Long before the police assembled, the Self-Defense Forces had already formed a phalanx to prepare to meet the Legion of Intestinal Animals, and the police were only assisting from the side. After all, they also won a complete victory in the "Second Battle of Kanto", and it was inevitable that they could not get rid of the conservative thinking of the past, and even advocated that "just leave the megalithic monument alone, just go all out to destroy the original intestines" The main battle faction has grown in popularity, and recently they have gradually disobeyed the orders of the Son of Heaven.
In response to Tina's question, Yang Xi shook his head with a smile, "Tina, remember, there is a saying that arrogant soldiers will be defeated!" Do you know why Tiantong Ju Zhicheng, who obviously hates protosaltic animals, also agrees with this battle to let the police fight, and even takes the initiative to call the police? It is because he knows the seriousness of the gaffe, which is simply not something that the Self-Defense Forces can solve. It's a pity that those guys can't see the status quo at all, and they are still immersed in the glorious achievements of the past, and even look at the police who came to help as a great enemy to grab credit, Tina, the first to die is the group of self-defense forces who think they can destroy the enemy with guns in hand. β
Looking at the defense facilities at the forefront, Yang Xi had a full picture of the facilities here at a glance.
This unit is probably an infantry-based unit like an infantry brigade. The number of people can only be guessed based on the size of the facility, but it is about 6,000 people.
Horizontally arranged armored vehicles with combat vehicles, missile silos. The sentry is armed with a Type 21 rifle from Sima Heavy Industries.
The equipment is well equipped, and the morale seems to be high. This is the overall combat strength of the Self-Defense Forces
Continuing to stare into the distance, there was no one around the monument. Perhaps in order to prevent personnel from being injured by the debris and dust from the collapse of the megalith, the blockade was specially pulled out.
The monument that stands on the ground to protect the Tokyo area has been polluted by albino for a few days, and it looks dilapidated. This kind of tragic situation makes people feel furious just by seeing it, and it is normal for people not to want to be affected by the collapsed megalith.
Suddenly, Yang Xi saw two expected and unexpected people appear in front of the giant stone monument - Tiantong Kigen and Satomi Rentaro.
How did these two end up here?
looked at Yanzhu, who was still playing with other girls of the same age behind him, and it stands to reason. Rentaro, who lost his initiator, should not be eligible for this battle. Especially that Tiantong Mu Geng, he has kidney problems, and he can't give full play to his strength, isn't he looking for death when he comes to the front line?
His eyes flickered, but Yang Xi didn't tell anyone else about discovering the two of them, but continued to pay attention to the two of them with his super senses.
Stopping twenty meters in front of the monument, Rentaro said to the person next to him, "It's here." β
He even took off his helmet and shook his head, and his beautiful and shiny black hair slid down his waist even in the dark night. She said, "It's hard work." Then he strode in the direction of the monument.
"Hey, hey, Miss Kigen."
I was about to warn her that this was dangerous, but Kigen had no intention of stopping. Rentaro had no choice but to scratch the back of his head, and he reluctantly followed.
The wooden steles came to the foundation of the monument, approached from the side held with an iron hoop, and reached out to touch the monument.
"Satomi-san also touched it."
Unable to understand Kigen's true intentions, the surprised Rentaro came to her side and gently touched the giant stone tablet.
Rentaro has touched the monument several times in the past. He still remembers the smooth, cold feel.
However, this time the sensation of the palm is strongly contrary to the memory of the past.
It feels very loose. It looks like a dead leaf that can be easily crushed. Thinking that he had made a mistake, Rentaro moved his palm up and down, and the surface of the monument peeled off, and the fragments were piled up at his feet.
ββ
"It's miserable. Although it has not yet eroded to the inside, the erosion fluid can make holmium become this virtue. β
"The megalithic monument is really about to collapse."
Rentaro tilted his head. Looking up at the top of the megalithic monument that reached straight into the sky, my mind was full of complicated thoughts.
There was a science fiction writer in the past, Arthur Brown. Clark once defined the large black stone slab that appears in the work as a device set up by God to cause human evolution.
Then we humans can really go through the valuable experience of the proto-intestinal animal war. Learn the way to evolve to a higher dimension?
When I think of this, the signs of destruction that are now displayed in front of me, one can't help but think of the phrase "God is dead."
Rentaro shook his head. Stop thinking about it, it's just an escape.
One thing is certain, though. It is that the megalithic monument will inevitably collapse. In addition, he has to fight to the death to prevent the enemy from invading from here.
To sustain the world of tomorrow.
Mu looked up at the megalith, and at the same time took a few steps back:
"Now, Satomi-san. Do you know how megaliths are made? β
"I've never seen this with my own eyes, but I've heard that the megalith monument is a 'combination' method, bringing parts to the construction site, and then putting them together-"
Mu Geng turned his face around, revealing a very helpless expression:
"You're stupid. That answer doesn't get extra points. Wouldn't it be quicker to imagine the way the pyramids were built? β
"Pyramids?"
"When you build a pyramid, you use a special tool to gradually pile up the cut stones, right? The megalithic monument is also constructed from pieces of metal. A large number of transport planes and helicopters are airlifted to the site and then combined on site. Of course, if you simply stack them, they will be blown down by the wind all at once, so you need to use a special adhesive that is stronger than the metal parts of airplanes and spaceships. β
"But since it's put together in pieces, I can't see that there's a gap?"
"The precision of Japan's megaliths is among the best in the world."
Wood raised a finger more confidently:
"At least a hundred meters."
She pointed her erected finger at the monument: "If this monument number 32 collapses, the first step is to quickly pile up a hundred meters of metal blocks. In this way, ordinary gastroids will be kept out. The following month is a gradual accumulation of altitude, culminating in a . Six-kilometer-high target. Satomi-san may remember that the megalithic monument at the end of the Proto-Aragut War was not so tall at the beginning. β
Rentaro nodded silently. He did remember that the megalithic monument that had just ended the war was relatively low.
"How long does it take to accumulate to 100 meters?"
"As long as you gather the materials and the transport plane, it will be enough for about half a day."
"Is it that fast?"
"Of course. This is not an individual or a company, but a megalithic monument built by the Tokyo Regional Government with the efforts of the whole country. In total, the majority of the ten days spent were spent waiting for the holmium to take shape. However, even if the altitude of 1.6 kilometers is finally restored, it will not be possible to avoid the intestinal animals that have accidentally entered from the sky.
"It's not just that. There are also protogastrates that escaped from freak shows, research facilities, and personal keepers of good deeds, and humans who escaped into the megalithic monument after being injected with bodily fluids. and "
"A starter with an erosion rate of more than 50% in the body. Wait, Miss Kisara, don't you think it's strange? Why did the government have to rebuild the megalithic monument at this time? Even if you desperately build a new megalith, as long as you inject the holmium erosion liquid into Aldebaran again, won't all the work be in vain, right, wait, it's not just like that. β
Rentaro tried to turn the doubts that were entrenched in his heart into words.
- Why didn't Aldebaran attack the megalithic monument outside of here? Rather than attacking just one point, opening a few more gaps should make the invasion more efficient, right? β
"That's the problem."
Kigen poked Rentaro with his index finger: "It seems that the government has been observing for a few days and has judged that Aldebaran does not intend to attack the megalithic monument other than 32." As far as reality goes, since then. Aldebaran didn't make a move on the other megaliths either. β
"And the reason?"
"The government has a few hypotheses in mind, but honestly, they don't understand it. By the way, Satomi-san, it's rare for two people to come here, do you want to brainstorm together? β
Rentaro nodded silently. It's just that Aldebaran in Stage IV was able to get his hands on the giant stone tablet, and when he first heard the instructions of the Son of Heaven's commission, Rentaro had doubts about it. If you have excellent wisdom and insight, you will have a better chance of solving problems.
Mu Geng raised three fingers: "I also came up with three hypotheses. First. After Aldebaran attacked Monument 32, he needed to rest for a long time to regain his strength. β
Rentaro held his chin. This statement is quite likely. Aldebaran is also an ordinary protosatula, and since it is exposed to a holmium magnetic field that is enough to weaken it to death, howeverβ
"It's been more than four days since that incident, right? Is it impossible to recover after all this time? β
"Hmmβevery archelloid is different. It's also hard to generalize. Forget it, let's talk about the second hypothesis - the geographical conditions here will weaken the magnetic field of the megalith. β
Rentaro looked around and saw endless plains as far as the eye could see.
"The 31st and 33rd megaliths next door, are there any differences in geographical conditions from here?"
Mu even furrowed his eyebrows into a figure-eight shape. Hands to chest: "It's almost identical." β
"Is there something buried in the ground?"
Mu Geng shook his head and said, "Before the construction of the megalith, a simple geological survey is carried out, so it is hard to imagine that kind of situation. β
"Then this assumption is also ruled out."
"yes. This brings up the third hypothesis. Due to Aldebaran's low intelligence, he could not think of a plan to attack most of the megaliths at the same time. β
"Impossible."
Rentaro immediately denied. This is by far the most outrageous statement.
"In order to buy time, that guy specially sent loyal ant-like araguts to attack here. Aldebaran has a good head, which is what everyone fears. β
"yes."
Even the person who said this didn't believe it, and Mu simply gave up this assumption and hugged his chest again.
"But Miss Tomgen's blessing, I have also come to a conclusion. I have another speculation. β
"Huh?"
Rentaro looked up at the miserable whitening megalithic monument above his head:
"It's this 32nd megalith, there's something wrong with it."
Mu was so frightened that he covered his mouth: "But, that kind of thing"
"In this way, there is a good reason to lock this place in particular, and it can be explained not to attack other megaliths."
Mu Geng pressed his chin against his chin, "That's right, I didn't expect it." β
Kigen looked straight at Rentaro, "I'll use my pipe to investigate this megalithic monument a little." β
"I'm sorry for you."
Until the results of the survey appear, there is no point in discussing them further, but in vain to explain the hypotheses with other assumptions.
Seeing the two of them lying on the grass and starting to flirt, Yang Xi, who had no voyeuristic hobby, adjusted his five senses to the level of ordinary people.
Looking up at the sky, the Milky Way still hangs unchanged in the sky.
-- There are two days left before the megalith collapses.
It has been two days since the tent in the 40th district has passed, and everyone has gradually adapted to the life here, especially the nine girls who followed Yang Xi, it was like an outing, happy all day long, carefree and playing. Not only that, but I also made a lot of good friends, and of course, the other party is also a "cursed child".
One of the things that impressed Yang Xi the most was a white-haired girl who looked shy and wore the pointed hat of a Western witch, whose name was Bu Shicui, and she was ranked 970.
It's funny to think of the acquaintance that day, first someone found a body killed by a sharp blade, and then found that two people were fighting.
After someone shouted coldly, the police gathered around turned there one after another. As if it had been agreed in advance, everyone moved towards that direction together.
Although someone shouted "There are people fighting here", when Yang Xi brought a group of little Loli over, the battle had not yet begun.
Approaching Yang Xi was a giant man with a barrel-sized body and a punk head. On the side, followed by the two-eyed starter.
The promoter on the other side is tall and wears a long coat with his eyes covered by a sunhat. The starter next to him wears a skirt and hooded sports jacket, and a black peaked hat with a wide brim. Perhaps concerned about the gaze around her, she kept shaking her body timidly.
The punk-headed guy blushed, and it looked like the guy had drunk a lot.
"Hey, little ghost, do you know who Uncle Ben is? I have committed 20 cases of robbery and murder, and have been sentenced to death and wanted by three countries. Bleeker. Nigel - that's Uncle Ben. β
The punk head let out a rude cry and waved the AN-94 assault rifle indiscriminately, and the man in the sunhat coat shook his head slightly calmly: "I didn't say you are weak, you are strong." β
"Then why don't you drink Uncle Ben's wine!"
"I don't need to treat you to a treat."
Cyberpunk's head suddenly burst into veins. He moved his chin at the starter next to him, and the starter turned around and raised his spear in the air without a word. It was a javelin for throwing.
Yang Xi, whose sleeves were pulled by someone, looked to the side, only to see Yanzhu looking uneasy.
"Why hasn't anyone noticed, there is too much difference in strength in this battle."
"Hehe, maybe, but most of the people gathered here are watching the excitement, does the gap between the strengths matter?"
Yanzhu nodded thoughtfully. (To be continued......)
