Chapter 288: Tomorrow's ...... Edge?
"Five years later, we finally won the victory, which is a picture from Verdun, and it is commendable that it was a victory with few casualties and low damage, and it should be said that it was a great victory!" Diaphragm
The world of Edge of Tomorrow, located in a small abandoned town on the outskirts of London, is anchored here by a few people.
In a short period of time, their quantum computer was connected to the world's communication system, and then on the TV in the room, such a picture was played, and this picture was compared with the movie screen played by the quantum computer on the side, and they were able to judge the situation they are encountering very smoothly.
At least, they already know the exact time in this world.
Specifically, the time now is probably the day before the plot takes place, that is, the moment when the protagonist Cage has not yet been stuffed into the army and begins to officially carry out reincarnation.
He will have to die on the battlefield tomorrow with an alpha-level mimic before he can have the ability to travel through time infinitely.
"Sinan, report the situation!" Zhuang Quan said that what he is using now is the Huaguo Quantum Computer Research Institute, using the latest quantum computer 550z, to train him a special quantum computer that belongs to him - Sinan.
Now, they don't need to move the White Queen around, which is good news. Diaphragm
"There are still 36 hours to go, and the main character, Major William Cage, will start a special cycle of his own!" Sinan's voice echoed in everyone's ears, and after falling into this world for about a day, they finally knew the specific time they were in.
"According to the plan, we need to enter the Combine headquarters in London and monitor the location of that Major Cage to make sure he starts the reincarnation, right?" Zhuang Quan said.
There seemed to be a trace of doubt in his eyes, but he didn't say it, but slowly fell silent, this feeling was a little wrong, but what was wrong, he couldn't say!
"Yes, we need to enter the Combine Headquarters and find that Major Cage, at least see him killed by Alpha and start the cycle again!" Kaplan said, "We've got the information here, and the Major Cage is now on his way to the general's quarters for an interview!" ”
Zhuang Quan nodded slightly, "It seems that the plot doesn't seem to have changed much, but it is in order, we can clean it up, wait for the time when Major Cage enters the barracks, and then compare which special timeline we have come to!" ”
"Probably at the beginning, right?" Alice said, "After all, we don't have a time loop here yet!" ”
"I'd love to say you're right, Alice, but I'm sorry, it's not!" Kaplan said, "The space-time cycle event in this world started five years ago, when that mimic monster invaded the earth! "Ahh
"Because mimicry is able to memorize time, once an alpha dies, it corrects the time until the alpha no longer dies!"
"And Alpha must have experienced more than one death in this world, so theoretically, as long as there is an Alpha in our world who dies, time will be reset, but we don't know it!"
What he said wasn't that hard to understand, and in fact, that's what the movie "Edge of Tomorrow" is really telling the audience, which is fatalism or the theory of overlapping time.
Zhuang Quan stared and nodded, "We don't know what time it really is, or even how long we've been in this world, because once time resets, everything will start from scratch!" ”
"We are like fish in a river, we can only know the past and past of this world, and we don't know what this world looks like and why it has become like this!"
Hearing what he said, everyone was a little melancholy.
However, this melancholy did not last long, and under the guidance of Sinan, they began to revisit this special time and space travel type of movie: Lang
The plot of the movie is not complicated, probably the calamitous earth, which was attacked by aliens again, this time the aliens have a strong ability to imitate, so they are called imitations, or mimicry.
Mimics have three special lifeforms, one is the normal mimic, which is a huge number of mimic soldiers - a monster with special limbs, similar to land octopuses, whose limbs are the largest weapons.
One is the boss-level mimic, which is the blue mimic α (alpha), a special mimic that can go back to a day ago after death and start a time loop.
The other is the Brain Mimic Ω (Omega), which is a special brain with the ability to locate the time and readjust the alpha to a day ago.
This has led to the gradual defeat of humanity on the battlefield and the special victory of the mimics.
But the male protagonist Kevin obtained such a special ability before he died, and he would return to the anchored point in time when he was dying, and continue the next round of the cycle.
In a sense, he was trapped in this day, and when he died, he would return to this day, a bit like the protagonist of Groundhog Day, but he was even more magical, even if he didn't die that day, he would be resurrected on the same day. Diaphragm
After watching the introduction of this movie, Zhuang Quan clapped his hands, "Alice went to find the heroine of the movie, that is, the Verdun angel Rita Wolatarski, and our task is to see that Major William Cage!" ”
"According to the time, he should have arrived in the room of that Mad-Eye Moody (actor terrier) by now, we can go to the base and wait for him!" Zhuang Quan said, "This is very helpful for us to position the timeline we are in!" ”
"Captain James, it's still up to you to assign the team!"
Black Captain James nodded, "According to the rules of battle, once there is a problem, J.D. you and Ren, as assaulters, will be the first to go up, Mr. Zhuang Quan and I will be the second to follow, and Kaplan you will mobilize the stealth drone and satellite system at the end!" ”
"Roger!" The crowd answered.
"Then move, turn on our stealth mode, and see you at our military base!" James said, grabbing their gear and setting off quickly.
Their base is located in the corner of the city, hidden by the optical camouflage system into a small house, and no one knows that there is a technology here that is far ahead of the previous era, so they have a very smooth journey, but it is only the first half of the time! Diaphragm
The satellite and super artificial intelligence Si Nan they sent in advance sent out a prompt when a few people walked through the street, "Warning, warning!" There are traces of life approaching you quickly, so please dodge quickly! ”
"Traces of life?" Zhuang Quan wondered, several people were also vigilant to look around the situation, in order to be able to blend in with the crowd, their armor was on the nuclear drone in the sky, and they were not wearing it!
This is an ordinary street, probably because the European continent has been attacked, there are not many people here in the UK, most of them have fled to other continents, so the surroundings are very quiet!
Zhuang Quan didn't feel any danger, just looked around like an ordinary person, and it wasn't until a few seconds later that his body's reaction finally woke up!
"Underground, underground! Get out of the way! Zhuang Quan said, he understood at once, this prompt is a mimic attack!
Sure enough, at the moment when he dodged away, a terrifying spike stabbed out directly from in front of him, and then a special monster like a land octopus, mimic, came!
Those steel-like claws overturned the cement pavement here in this way, penetrating the chests of several people, except for Zhuang Quan, the remaining three people were all hit! Diaphragm
Fortunately, none of them are ordinary people, and the red scorching lava in their bodies gradually began to burn, and the terrifying high temperature brought by the desperate virus directly burned off several of the claws of this mimic!
It began to struggle in vain, as if it had sensed its own danger and wanted to escape!
But it was too late, Zhuang Quan was not an ordinary person, he stretched out his hand directly, grabbed the mimic like this, and then pulled it out and threw it into the distance!
"Boom!" The mimicry smashed down a house, and before it could stand up, the drone in the sky had already shot a particle beam, completely melting it into a puddle of mud!
The crisis was lifted, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief, but they did not recover from their nervous demeanor, and the mimic attack in advance brought them back to their senses, this is probably not their first time crossing!
"Wait, why, I can't feel my psionic powers?" Zhuang Quan finally discovered something wrong with himself, he used purely physical strength in this battle, but in fact, his strongest place was spiritual energy!
Psionic early warning is something that comes with his psionic energy, and Alice relies on this ability to thrive in this world, and it is impossible for it to fail in his place! Diaphragm
He reacted, such an aberration, from his spiritual energy warning to himself, it was a special, spiritual vigilance, because now he was imperceptible, almost like an ordinary person!
This means that his spiritual energy has been consumed!
"Captain James, are you alright?" Zhuang Quan turned his head to look at James, who was cleaning his wounds with the three team members, and nodded when he heard this, "If we hadn't all fought the Desperate Virus, we would really have died here today!" ”
Zhuang Quan nodded slightly, looking at the big hole in their stomachs or chests - the scenery on Rayne's chest could not be concealed at all, she simply stopped hiding it, and let go of her hands very boldly, and directly dealt with the body that had just been closed.
"We can't carry out the mission anymore, let's go back first, this incident means that our future is not good!"
Several people nodded with concern, and they also knew what Zhuang Quan meant, this was all a sneak attack, which means that at least the mimic has already known their course of action, and it is estimated that there will be a lot of attacks waiting for them on the way to the meeting, if they wait until these people from the combined army come, it will not be good.
They need to go back and think about what to do about it. Diaphragm
How chic he was when he came, and how embarrassed he was when he went back, Zhuang Quan pondered about his spiritual energy, and the members of the four commandos, who were also covering each other's wounds, returned to their base!
As soon as possible, Zhuang Quan had already given the order!
"Sinan, activity detection, psionic detection, infrared spectroscopy, dynamic scanning, look at how many mimics are still lurking here!"
As the satellite scanning began, several people sat down in the small house again, not in high spirits.
In the end, it was Zhuang Quan who said slowly: "It seems that everyone has found out that it is not the first time we have come to this world, it is likely that we have been here many times, but they have all failed!" ”
"The mimicry that just attacked us is the best proof, they should have suffered our losses before they would do such a move!"
"And my psionic energy has been depleted, which means that I may have used my psionic energy in battle many times, but we didn't notice it!" Diaphragm
"We've been stuck in a time loop, but we've just knew!"
The continued silence is not good news.
"Secretary General Zhuang Quan, someone has come to our house!" Kaplan suddenly said, "If I'm not mistaken, he should be our protagonist, Mr. William Cage!" ”
"He said a word at the door, I'll hear it to you!" As he spoke, he played the voice again, and it was in English, "Edge of Tomorrow!" ”
Zhuang Quan's head turned, this word is the name of the movie, that is, the edge of tomorrow!
