Chapter 16 The tailed rat, the ridged turtle, and the poisonous woman are coming
Steck Pantycoster was quick to act, and by the time everyone was still immersed in the plan he had proposed, and trying to perfect it, he had already found the answer.
Newton was not wrong in his speculation. Those chrysanthemum beasts are not simply driven by wild nature, they are not just hunting and gathering, they are here by command! That's a bunch of biological weapons! And not a product of nature! Their masters, or makers, are a colonizing civilization in the universe who occupy a planet like locusts and when they have exhausted everything, they look for the next target.
Our planet is one of their chosen targets.
Surprisingly, judging by the intelligence obtained from this synaesthesia, they have been eyeing the planet much earlier than the appearance of our humans. They were here in the days of the dinosaurs! But at that time, the environment and air of the planet were not suitable for them to live. For other reasons, they went back. But they have always had a certain focus on the planet.
Now that the ozone is depleted, the carbon monoxide is rising, and the water is polluted, they smell the ripening opportunity of the sweet fruit, so they come back. They believe that the current environment, even with the limitations of wormholes, has reached the time when it can transform the planet and then carry out migration. In the past ten years, they have sent wave after wave of Kaiju beasts, not to let them kill us, but to attack and pollute the most serious areas little by little, so that they will gradually transform into their habitable environment!
As for exterminating us? As long as the environmental transformation is successful, we need at least half of the population to die. Eventually, they will send reapers, more powerful than one or four generations, to reap us clean. At this point, the new house has been cleared and the new tenants can move in. ”
"I knew it!" Newton Geisler jumped to his feet with excitement, his right fist swinging into the air and slamming it into the air.
"It can't be!" Herman Gottlieb looked distracted.
"That's what it is, Dr. Herman." Steck Pantycoster's face was full of seriousness: "Like you, I don't want to believe this fact, but the fact is the fact, and it is impossible to refute it like mathematics." ”
"Leave him alone, he's the wail of the loser! Let's talk about this colonial civilization, do you have more news? Newton Geisler pushed Herman Gottlieb away, and his face came to Steck's face, his face flushed, and he said excitedly. He is not a calm and sophisticated person, and he is not a person who is invisible.
In the original play, because no one believed him, he impulsively disassembled and modified the synaesthesia system of the Shaolin Ranger by himself, and synesthesia with a crippled, dying Kaiju beast's head. When Hannibal Chow asked why he had to ask for the monster's head, he first said that it was classified, and then before Hannibal Chow asked, he took the initiative to show off everything he had done.
In essence, like Hermann Gottlieb, he was a relatively pure researcher, with joy and sorrow on his face, and there was nothing to speak of. Of course, this is different from the following years after being brainwashed and controlled by the pioneer consciousness.
"Pioneer civilization. The man who made these chrysanthemum beasts was called the Engineer. The DNA of Kaiju is derived from the genes of these pioneering engineers. They cloned the chrysanthemums with different forms through poison-making chemistry and biological mutation techniques. The higher the rank of its Pioneer Engineer, the more powerful and poisonous the cloned Kaiju Beast becomes.
In addition, the Gap is indeed as Dr. Luke said, if we want to enter, we must obtain some of the genes of the Kaiju Beast, or enter with a monster, only then will the Gap recognize us and let us pass through. "Steck Pantycoster.
"With so much information, it seems that you have wasted a lot of effort in the past few days." Heiko Hansen patted Steck on the shoulder.
"Mr. and Mrs. Alexis were very helpful. With the single-person synaesthesia system created by Dr. Luke, it took three people to synaesthesia the secondary brain of a monster at the same time, and we were able to get this valuable information. Steck Pantycoster rubbed his forehead.
"Are those three alright?" Raleigh Beckett asked.
"Three death row inmates, one of whom has a Ph.D., participated in the trial with a reduced sentence." Steck Pantycoster glanced at Raleigh Beckett, who was questioning, and finally added: "They're still alive, they just need to stay in prison for the rest of their lives." ”
"Dr. Luke, is there a way for us to get the key to the Breach?" Steck's eyes fell on Luke Field on the side.
"Of course." Luke Field replied lightly, "All you need is a part of the organization of the monsters, and the mech can be modified." If needed, I can also coat you with a monster's gene to make it look like it's real. Last double insurance. ”
"Let's get started. Time is running out. Steck Pantycoster clapped his hands and motioned for the meeting to dissolve.
……
"I think that Dr. Luke has a high status at this base?" Raleigh Beckett caught up with Asako Mori in front of her, walked side by side with her, and asked curiously. It was hard for him to imagine that even General Steck, who was very difficult to deal with in his memory, had a lot of respect for Luke. Especially in the past few days when he came to the PPDC main base, he found that Luke seemed to have the same final say here as General Steck.
"Of course. In the toughest time for PPDC, it was Dr. Luke and Shaw Industries behind him who helped. Asako Mori hurriedly walked while explaining to Raleigh Beckett, "Dr. Luke has brought a lot of unique technologies from Shaw Industries, and these technologies have helped PPDC to a great extent, just like a mecha transformation, the mecha hunter modified by Dr. Luke has a combat power that is not comparable to before.
At the same time, he also modified the base by the way. ”
"Base?" Raleigh Beckett was a little dazed.
"Some industrial machinery to improve the maintenance time of mecha hunters. Since the significant reduction of member states and the cutting off of PPDC funding, it has been difficult for us to afford too many mech maintenance teams, except for some who have volunteered to stay, most of the others have been transferred by their respective member states. Dr. Luke had developed an unmanned factory technology for Shaw Industries, which he modified and used in PPDC. Recently, General Steck picked up the abandoned mecha for maintenance, also because he found that after applying this set of technology, the number of existing mech hunters has not reached the limit of this set of technology, and it can completely add some mecha hunters under the existing maintenance team. ”
Asako Mori crossed her fingers and counted them one by one for Raleigh Beckett, "In addition to the unmanned factory technology, the energy system of PPDC has also been upgraded by Dr. Luke, in his words, PPDC's existing funds can only be upgraded to this extent, but in fact, if the upgraded energy system is released, it will not only be enough to run the general base of PPDC at full power, but also provide enough energy for this island." ”
"The base's protective measures have also been upgraded, when the base was built in the past, because it was used against the Kaiju Beast, it was a little lacking in weapons such as electromagnetic pulses, and Dr. Luke turned it into an oversized Faraday cage. Although General Steck felt that it was unnecessary. But because it was Shaw Industries friendly help, he didn't say anything.
Finally, Dr. Luke and Shaw Industries have the support of a country behind them, his connections and influence are very large in this country, and all the bases of our PPDC in other member countries have been closed and transferred, and only this general base remains, except for the country that believes that it needs to keep PPDC before the monster wall is verified, Dr. Luke and Shaw Industries have also contributed a lot in it. General Steck, including us, is grateful to him. ”
"I see, then it seems that he is still a good person." Raleigh Beckett smiled.
Asako Mori pursed her lips and smiled. The two of them each made their way to the break room in the base, door to door.
"I heard you're a driver?" As he entered the house, Raleigh Beckett suddenly turned around and asked.
Hearing this, Mori Asako also turned around, holding the folder and looking at Raleigh Beckett: "Yes, I just became a driver not long ago, but I haven't experienced a battle yet." ”
"What about the simulator scores?" Raleigh Beckett asked. If you want to become a mecha hunter pilot, you need to go through the training and sweat that you need to pay is quite high, and you also need to have some talent! When Raleigh Beckett first joined the Hunter Academy, he saw a lot of people who were eliminated due to factors such as failing training, failing simulator training, and unstable mental quality.
"51 shots, 51 kills." Asako Mori replied softly.
Asako Mori's simulator performance made Raleigh Beckett, an old hunter, raise his eyebrows in surprise, "This is very good, which mecha hunter is assigned to you?" Maybe we'll have to fight together in the future. ”
"Kurturlo." Asako Mori's expression was rare for some little girls, and this was the first time Raleigh Beckett had seen this kind of look on each other's faces since he met each other.
"Kurtulo? That sixth-generation aircraft? ”
Raleigh Beckett, who has been at the PPDC main base for almost a week, naturally knows that the mecha placed in the center of the base is as special as Storm Crimson, and he has also obtained some relevant information from his old friend Heike Hansen, knowing that it is the latest and only sixth-generation aircraft, which is as special as the only fifth-generation aircraft Eureka Raider.
"Yes, it's powerful, and when I harness it, I can feel its majestic and endless energy, and it has six energy cores...... "Asako Mori is obviously fond of Kurturo.
"Wait, I heard this isn't Dr. Luke's mech?" Raleigh Beckett frowned, thinking carefully about the information he had received from Heiko Hansen about Curturlo.
Mori Asako froze, and the fingers holding the folder tightened, "Dr. Luke is a scientific researcher, and his safety is extremely important to everyone in the base, including Shaw Industries and the country behind it. We can't treat him like a warrior. What's more, Dr. Luke, who is immersed in researching and modifying mecha technology every day, is just a piece of work for him. ”
"Is that so?" Raleigh Beckett nodded as if convinced.
Asako Mori was a little deflated, as the most advanced and even the most powerful sixth-generation aircraft in the world, there was no mecha hunter in the field who didn't want to be its pilot. However, this powerful mecha is nothing more than a big toy in Dr. Luke's mouth. A work used to verify and prove his skills. By the time it was launched, Dr. Luke's interest in it had largely disappeared.
Thinking of the answer she received when Dr. Luke gave her control of Curturlo in disbelief and asked why Dr. Luke had given her the driver's seat, Asako Mori couldn't understand it. But that didn't stop her in the slightest from being a driver for Curturlo. She has been familiar with the various functions of Curturo for the past few months, and she is not only an excellent combatant, but also a very good researcher of mecha technology, which helps her to figure out the technology contained in Kurturo more quickly.
……
When the countdown to the war clock came to the last day, the atmosphere at the base became tense.
23:53 p.m.
The energy that emerges from the wormhole triggers the alarm of the PPDC.
Cai Tiantong quickly sat down in his place, looked at the data that slipped off the screen, and made a report.
"Three signals! Signal Strength Levels, 4th Generation! One of them, is the fifth generation! ”
Looking at Raleigh Beckett and the others who rushed over because of the alarm, Cai Tiantong said at the signal of Steck.
"Their code names are tailed rats and ridged turtles, as well as the first five generations of species code name poisonous women, and they will arrive in Xianggang within an hour."
"Sound the alarm, evacuate the whole city, close the bridge. Officials will arrange for every citizen to enter the shelter. The rest is our job. The fall of Sydney cannot be played out here. Crimson Storm, Shaolin Ranger, Cherno Alpha ......" General Steck took over Cai Tiantong's words.
"The Shaolin Ranger may not be able to dispatch for the time being, Dr. Luke has just disassembled it for experimental modification." Shaolin Ranger's maintenance engineer Chen Kesheng raised his hand a little helplessly: "Dr. Luke said that anyway, it's just a third-generation machine, and it's just right to use it for experiments, even if it fails, it's only a third-generation machine." ”
The other members of the Shaolin Ranger maintenance team also looked helpless when they heard this, big man, the Shaolin Ranger that has been upgraded before has met the standards of the fourth-generation aircraft!
"Then," Steck's eyes swept around, and saw his adopted daughter Asako Mori, who was standing next to Raleigh Beckett, with a somewhat eager face, and said, "Plus the dangerous wanderer, Kurturo, and let the four of you stop the monster." I have only one goal, not to get them near the base and the city. Eureka Raider, you are responsible for guarding the coastline, and if the Kaiju Beast breaks through the blockade, you will stop it. Is there a problem? ”
Everyone shook their heads in unison.
"Then start preparing. The monster's corpse should be as intact as possible, Dr. Luke will need it. Steck waved his hand and motioned for everyone to get ready.
