Chapter Seventy-Three: Let's Go
"Marin. "Yes. "Lyon. "Yes. "Thorne. "To. ”
"The three of you, get on this vehicle, as the second team of the No. 1 vehicle, your duty is to protect the six ordinary people in the vehicle and not leave the vehicle easily. If there are bugs outside, hand them over to the first team to clean up, and even if the three members of the first team die in front of you without my order, you are not allowed to leave the vehicle for half a step. ”
"Understood. ”
"You are warriors, you are strong, and I know that some of you don't like ordinary people. It is true that ordinary people are timid and fragile and cannot fight alongside you, yet you must protect them. It's not a matter of responsibility, it's just empty gibberish for the mercenaries, but because they are the cornerstone of your life, you can enjoy freedom, you can indulge in pleasure, you rely on them to work behind the scenes, without these weak people, the strong people would not be as free as they are now. Therefore, even for the sake of their future free life, we will do our best to protect them, and this is a cooperative relationship that has been established since the social division of labor between the two sides was clarified in the pioneering era. The Lord said, all who believe in me, must be grateful, a little kindness, should be reciprocated with sincerity, although you are not a believer in our Lord, but you still have to know to be grateful, you have taken so much from ordinary people, and it is time to pay for them, so when you encounter danger, you must do your best to protect it, understand?"
"Yes~~~~" The mercenaries dragged out their voices and responded weakly.
"Also, hehe. Shuer suddenly showed a smile exclusive to the priesthood and said sincerely, "It is your task to protect them, and if you fail to complete the task, you will have to deduct money, and for every death of the six ordinary people in the car, twenty gold coins will be deducted from each person." I know the result of your discussion with Mia, in the past few days, you have strayed into the otherworldly projection, which is considered a separate employment mission, and the employment cost is as high as one hundred gold coins per person, so if everyone in the car dies, you will have to paste twenty gold coins upside down for each of you, whether you want to protect it or not, you decide for yourself, do you understand this time. ”
"Understood!" was neat and sonorous, and the mercenaries seemed to be seeing a burning fighting spirit.
"Vehicle two, Vi, let it drive over. With a very subtle smile, Shul nodded with satisfaction, "Start assigning the passengers of the second vehicle, all come here." ”
Four hours after discovering the movement of the swarm troops, Artificial Intelligence Wei finally drew a map of the distribution of the fungus blanket, and the coverage of the fungus blanket was marked in detail, the largest blank space was the location of the mother nest of the insect swarm, and there was a large fungus blanket, located near the human fortress, which was where everyone was when they arrived, and the fungus blanket stretched to less than a kilometer near the fortress, but there were not too many insect swarms stationed, and even the supporters were few, which should be the ruins left over from the end of the war.
In addition, there are some small fungus blankets scattered around, most of which are located in the location of crystal ore veins, and the others are basically used as transfer stations or cantonment sites set up to protect the mine, and there are not many fungus blankets set up for no reason.
This gave the Pavadigas a chance, there were many gaps between the blankets, enough for small forces to move in and out, and for the reason that the sooner they acted, the more routes they could choose, it was decided that they would set off in four hours, that is, twelve hours earlier. There is plenty of time, if nothing else, when the swarm soldiers come to the city, everyone is already sitting in the barracks of the excavation site to enjoy the refreshing iced herb tea, if you are lucky enough, maybe you can also mobilize the troops of the swarm to turn the brood, and even the fortress can be saved, although it doesn't make much sense, but you can also feel a little more comfortable, after all, you have lived in the fortress for several days, protected by the fortress, and everyone already has feelings for it.
"You've settled the deal with Wei?" Shure finished assigning all of his followers' tasks, and everyone boarded the modified vehicles and sat down, each of them nervous, trying to force themselves to close their eyes and recuperate. Seeing this scene, the high-ranking mercenaries finally gathered around Shuer, and Mia patted Shuer's land war weapon on his feet and asked, "What was the result?"
"She will fully cooperate with us, all war weapons, including the ghost fighter and this thing called the tank, and the two vehicles that she has become a heavy truck, will cooperate with us in the assault, and will also send a large number of stealth agents to follow us and observe the surrounding environment for us. Don't worry about the lack of defense of the fortress, as soon as we leave and make room for parking, she will start producing a new batch of war weapons, and after twelve hours, at least two tanks can be replenished, but the consumption of metal resources for reproduction is a bit large, and the crystal energy that is not much left is on the verge of exhaustion, but ...... Anyway, it doesn't matter after twelve hours, she won't need anything at that time, hehe. Look, it's fun to get these people armed, I've seen images of local soldiers going out in Wei's memory bank, it's enough to be real. ”
Indeed, everyone on the vehicle is wearing the uniform and armor of a native human soldier, and holding the gun in his hand in a very standard posture is like a copy of the native soldier, but unfortunately, half of them are ordinary people who have not been in battle, and the momentum is still far behind.
"It's changing the subject again. Mia sneered, glared at Shuer and asked, "Wei regards you as a commander, I don't know the reason and don't want to know, but if you give the order, she will definitely cooperate fully, even if all the troops pour out of the nest, even if you let all the weapons take the initiative to attack the swarm to commit suicide, she probably won't hesitate, so there is no suspense in this aspect at all." You should know that this is not the result I am asking. ”
"Heh, what do you want to know?"
"You...... Bring her in, you don't want her to be destroyed by the swarm, you want to bring her back to Pavatiga?"
"What a joke, how is it possible. Shuer seemed to have just understood what Mia was talking about, and said in surprise, "She's just an artificial intelligence, Your Excellency Mage, maybe others don't know, but you should know what artificial intelligence is." She was a machine, an artifact, essentially no different from a sword and armor. She has no soul, no feelings, and all reactions depend on something...... Oh yes, the program, based on the program's logical judgment, she can't be considered a life at all, she can only be called an object. She's already explained this to me in detail, it's just a prop, what am I going to do with her back to Pavatiga, just kidding, do you think I'm going to do such a stupid thing?"
"But you brought her with you, right? Mia didn't care about Shuer's tone, and said as usual, "Anyway, you brought her with you, otherwise how would you explain the heavy equipment in your backpack?"
"I remember saying that this is not a regular photo hunt, so everyone chooses what they want to bring. I happened to be interested in those devices, and I wanted to bring them back to my collection, and I didn't seem to need to explain them. ”
"And that's all the necessary equipment to keep Vi running, including her memory, right? ”
"Ahem. Xiuer coughed dryly, and insisted with a straight face, "I just chose my own perceptual equipment to bring back, as for whether it is a device that maintains her function, I don't know, I don't understand." ”
"Yes, you don't understand, how do you judge which equipment is necessary and which is equipment that can be discarded? Mia said with a smirk, "But, I think you should know." ”
"Yes, I know, there's no way I'm going to really bring her back. ”
"Yes, it's just an iron rule, there is no hole to drill. Mia sighed softly, rarely softening her voice, "I'm not sure if there's anything in her device that doesn't conform to the rules of Parvadiga, and if there is, then all the devices will disappear through the projection door, and it's all in vain." Even if there are no substances that do not comply with the rules, these devices really succeed in bringing them over, it is meaningless, the energy supply of the equipment should rely on the unique crystal energy here, all the parts in the equipment are designed based on crystal energy, including basic parts such as energy pipelines and connecting devices, Pavadiga does not have crystal energy, she will never be able to start again. ”
"Well, I've thought of that. ”
"It's good that you know. Mia said with a cold face, "Count me in trouble." ”
"Eh, is this the end?" Lin Jing took out a handful of grass out of nowhere, the grass blades had dried up, and there was no moisture at all, but she skillfully stuffed the grass blades into her mouth and chewed them, as if she was eating very fragrant, and she was so happy watching on the side that she almost applauded, "Why don't you continue?" ”
"Duck to the side and ruminate, you ungulate. Mia glared at Lin Jing fiercely, this guy understands everything, but pretending to be stupid about everything, it really makes people angry.
"Hey, I'm an artiodactyl deer. Mauria was upset and waved the withered grass in protest, "Don't confuse me with those stupid horses." ”
"Hmph. Mia snorted coldly, ignoring the fangs and claws of Lin Jing, and said to Xiu'er, "You know that there is no point, you still have to take those equipment back? Don't say anything nonsense like you're interested, I think you're more interested in things that can be exchanged for gold coins." ”
"There are some things that you still have to do, even if you know they are stupid, and that's a matter of principle. Shuer finally did not continue to change the topic, and said with a light sigh, "The Lord said, you must always be grateful, the Lord's will is my will, if there is no Wei, I'm afraid none of us will be able to leave alive, she saved all of us, so even if I know that it is futile, I hope to do something for her." ”
"Rules are rules, and miracles can never happen. ”
"Yes, miracles don't happen. Shul patted the bracelet on his wrist gently, it was hard but warm to the touch. Taking a deep breath and expelling the complex emotions out of his mind, Shuer raised his voice and said loudly in an uplifting voice, "Ready, everyone else gets on the vehicle, Wei, open the fortress, let's go." ”
