9 On the eve of the decisive battle
The Grey Knight stood in front of a floor-to-ceiling glass in the laboratory building with his back to everyone and his sword in one hand, contemplating, he put the helmet he had been wearing at his feet casually, and looked silently at the dark city through the window, and there was no expression on the ordinary face of Zhengyan reflected in the glass.
"Now we have more guns, but fewer people. Zhang Jie, who has been the leader of the team, began to preside over the meeting, but the partners who had just known him for less than 10 days had gone to most of them at this moment, and Zhang Jie, who had been trembling, couldn't help but exude a sense of despair in his words, and his views were more pessimistic.
"The point of getting more weapons is to give others the ability to self-report. Chu Xuan, who didn't eat the fireworks of the world, began to use his taunting skills, trying to make people think that the departure of Zheng Zha and the others was irrelevant. "We should follow the original plan to raid the alien lair and recapture the target. ”
"We can't just abandon them like this!, who will be willing to take risks in the future!?" Zhang Jie, who disappeared from his friend, will soon be Sparta, that's Lao Tzu's little brother, you say you don't care!?
"Red Queen, what is the status of the communicator?" Chu Xuan turned his head to the sexy female projection on the table and asked, although Zhengyan didn't want to participate in the meeting, he didn't intend to let others decide everything, so let the Red Queen have full authority. After a burst of clicks, the red queen shook her head: "There is still no response, if the communicator has not entered the strong interference zone, it will have been destroyed." ”
"We are surrounded by the enemy, with limited ammunition, insufficient manpower, low mobility, unfamiliar terrain, and I have no way of knowing where they are, nor can I confirm whether they are alive or not, and most importantly, we don't have much time left. The risk is too great, the success rate is too low, and I can't agree with the mission of search and rescue. ”
The people present each looked at the two arguing together, Zero and the overlord watched coldly, Yunling and the last gangster didn't pay attention to the argument between the two at all, just shrank in a corner and trembled. Li Shuaixi looked at the two of them in a panic alone, very hesitant which side to go with.
The two argued, but overall it was obvious that Chu Xuan had the upper hand. There is no way, compared to Chu Xuan's methodical analysis of the interests and arguments, Zhang Jie's rather emotional righteousness is really pale. If it was in peacetime, Zhang Jie's brothers might be more marketable, but in this kind of extraordinary period when it is not known whether they can save their lives, Chu Xuan's rational judgment is obviously more convincing, not to mention that the people present have only known each other for a few hours, and there is no way to talk about trust, and no one will risk their lives to beg people they don't know. Zhang Jie asked everyone to take the risk and find Zheng Zhe and Zhan Lan, who didn't know whether they survived or not, and no one was destined to echo them.
Sonorous sonor... The sound of footsteps from the metal clashing signaled that the fate of the team had been decided, and they were almost back in the center of the meeting. The original impassioned controversy was replaced by a suppressed silence, and everyone present, whether they cared about the team or not, all looked at him.
Regardless of which side the intention of the meeting turns, even if a plan is unanimously approved, it is still the Gray Knight who will make the final decision. Because he is not only the leader of this team, but also the execution machine of the team's will. Whether he is rude or not, ** or even reckless, this team cannot do without him. Not to mention that he has always led this team to carry incomparably heavy responsibilities, and his combat effectiveness alone far exceeds the sum of all the people in the team, this team cannot live without him. No one doubts that this superman, who can come and go freely in the alien sea, has the ability to survive by completing tasks alone, and almost everyone here is a burden to him. There has never been a reason for a burden to be thrown away (well, if you want to come to noble self-exile, please feel free, but there are no people with such high consciousness here.) This team was originally formed based on the awe of the Gray Knight, even if you want to exclude him, who will be the leader of the team? Besides, once there is a battle, who will fill the vacancy of Zhengyan? Without Zhengyan, production based on the premise of fighting is simply a fantasy, and even if Zhengyan wants them to die with him, they have no other way to live than to do it.
"What Chu Xuan said is very reasonable, we can't risk ourselves without any clues. As soon as the words came out, the future of the team this time had been determined, Zhang Jie seemed to be a little unconvinced, but he could only reluctantly bow down, the rest of the team was all newcomers who would support him. patted Zhang Jie on the shoulder, and Zhengyan said to him in a parental voice: "Zhang Jie, I know it's hard for you to accept, but protecting the lives of the survivors is the first priority. If we can't keep ourselves safe, who can help them when they need us?"
Zhang Jie nodded after a moment of silence, and then walked into the darkness without saying a word.
"After a five-minute break, everyone checked their weapons and communicators, and then it was time for the decisive battle. ”
There is also a change in the evening, and in the future, it will probably be Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday, about 3,000 words a day, which is also a necessary sacrifice in order to have more time to create in the future, I hope you will forgive me. Ah, by the way, the so-called two, four, six is American time, oh, remember.
PS: Recently, I took a look at the wind and rain of the 40th millennium, and the first volume was originally very appetizing, but after the motherhood, all the radio waves have been blown up!!
