Chapter 307: A dilemma
Steve sat behind the yellow wooden desk in his office in the command building of Base 1 and said with a sad face: "Now that we are being defeated by the other side, these stubborn guys will actually force each other to die in a vain attempt to stop our attack!" ”
"Yes, they took advantage of our weakness, which was that we were too kind to carry out a large-scale killing of Base 2," Mike said. ”
Sitting on a yellow wooden chair on the other side of Steve's desk, Sahu said, "The point is that even if we force our way into the city now, it could trigger a large-scale wave of suicides in Base 2. ”
Mike said, "Brothers, have you noticed that the officer who shot himself earlier was also wearing a safety band. Although the others are wearing helmets and can't be seen, I think it can be inferred that they are also wearing safety bands, after all, they all still have basic human nature, and they are more or less afraid of death. ”
Joseph said, "Brother Mack, you mean... Kill them, take only their souls, and then regenerate them? ”
Steve said, "If you have to settle for the next best thing, this is the only way to go." And this has the advantage of being able to modify their souls in bulk. In addition, if our rapid cloning technology can be implemented at scale, it will not take too long for them to be fully reborn. ”
Sahu said: "But I don't think this counts as killing? ”
Mike said: "Their souls are still there, and their DNA can be retrieved one by one, and their original bodies can be cloned, so they are not really dead." ”
Joseph thought for a moment and said, "The total server of Base One. ”
The main server of Base One said, "Commander Joseph, what do you command?" ”
Joseph said, "Ask the satellites in the sky if they have received a soul signal from Base Two before. ”
The main server of Base One said: "Report to Commander Joseph, not received. ”
"If that's the case, their safety hoop is to turn off the function of firing soul memories before they die," Steve said. Or maybe it's the signal relay equipment in the underground fortifications of Base 2, which they turned off. So deep underground, there is no way for the signal from the safety hoop to be transmitted to the satellite. ”
"The last time, after Martin committed suicide by seppuku in what appears to be a room in the command building, there was no soul sent to the satellite. It shows that at least at that time, their safety hoop has also turned off the function of sending soul signals to satellites before death. ”
"So we can't take the risk that if we kill the people in Base 2 and their safety bands don't keep their souls before they die," Joseph said, "we'll be guilty for the rest of our lives." After all, such a simple question, they will definitely think of it. ”
Sahu said: "Can we use the mine to rescue the bubble and give all the people in the underground fortifications?" ”
Mike said: "No, there are very heavy metal doors at the various passages and intersections of the underground fortifications, and the elevators also have metal isolation facilities, which must be blown up one by one before we can enter. But I think it's very likely that the person behind the door shot himself before the drone went in when he blew open a metal door. ”
Steve said: "Can you send a few invisible octopuses to get a few people, so as to verify what pattern their safety bands are set up in a unified manner?" ”
Joseph lowered his head and thought for a while, and said: "I think it's also difficult, because if you want to enter the underground fortifications, you have to blow up a hole, and the invisible octopus can get in, so it's better to let a large number of micro drones fly in, what do the other brothers think?" ”
Mike said, "That's true. ”
Sahu said: "I listen to your eldest brothers, you make up your minds, and I will just do it." ”
"And, if we really want to use the Invisible Octopus, then we have to knock out their power system before the Invisible Octopus goes in, otherwise the Invisible Octopus will be discovered by their various security scanning devices," Joseph said. But now the new problem is that they have made up their minds to kill themselves rather than surrender. If we forcibly break into the underground fortifications of Base 2 and blow up the nuclear generator set, as well as other backup generator sets, such a big move will inevitably cause them to think that the general trend is gone, and before knocking down their power system, Ami must have ordered them to kill themselves, or even they themselves do not have to accept the order, and each of them decided to commit suicide. ”
Sahu said: "So, at least we have to knock out the communication signal adapters in the underground fortifications first?" ”
"There's still a risk of suicides," Mike said. Because there are more communication signal adapters and they all have backup power supplies, they will definitely react immediately in the process of knocking them out. ”
"Yes," Joseph said, "Even if there is no transmitter, the intercom mode of their respective PCs allows their computers to be connected to a communication LAN and relay each other to send a message from one person in a unified manner. ”
Sahu said: "Then it is really not very realistic to use an invisible octopus to enter like this, is there no other way to go in and verify." ”
Mike said, "yes, in that case, I also think that letting the invisible octopus in will also startle the snake." Or let's start from the periphery and check the personnel on their periphery to see how their safety bands are set up. Reconnaissance satellites reported that the farms, ranches, and nearby mines around Base 2 had withdrawn to the base, but the people at their security checkpoints were still there. ”
Joseph said: "Yes, I didn't want to pay attention to them for the time being, after all, there are not many of them, and they hide in the bulletproof transparent mask of the special security robot, and forcibly breaking in and arresting them will inevitably cause casualties on both sides of the fire, but now if you want to obtain the above information, you can first find a way to arrest them without harming them." ”
Sahu said, "Why don't they withdraw it? Could it be deliberately left for us to catch and then confuse us. ”
"If you don't know if you catch them first, we have already knocked out the anti-aircraft weapons, communication systems and power systems at the security checkpoints, and there are no underground air defense facilities, so it is easy to capture them all," Steve said. Of course, as Brother Joseph said, to prevent them from being killed or injured when we capture them, and even to prevent them from shooting themselves in a transparent cover. ”
