Chapter 4: Target Hong Kong Island

The acquisition of intelligence is not difficult.

Even if he didn't use the unimaginable black technology in the core of Nether, with the microcomputer in Chu Xuan's hand alone, he could easily connect to the Internet and get a lot of information. After all, the construction of such a magnificent wall of steel itself represents an attitude of the United Nations government of this world...... An attitude that is not intended to be disguised at all.

"The invasion of the monsters was in 2013."

Chu Xuan read the information he had obtained from the Internet, and at the same time eliminated the useless boasts and praises from it, and explained to everyone in the Middle-earth team, including the three newcomers who had just entered: "The first giant beast appeared off the coast of San Francisco, and it destroyed the city in a violent and unstoppable manner, and most of the military attempts of the human race to stop the giant beast ended in failure...... By the time human weapons finally wiped it out, it had been six days, three cities had been razed to the ground, and tens of thousands of lives had been lost. ”

"And when the second and third monsters appeared, realizing that this was just the beginning, the human governments banded together to develop giant mechs to fight these giant beasts emerging from the depths of the sea. They formed an organization called the PPDC (Combined Pacific Rim Defense Force) and developed 'synaesthesia' technology based on the fighter's neural operating system, which allowed two mech pilots to combine their consciousness through memory to control the body of a giant mech in battle...... The 'Hunter Academy', which is open to the world to recruit excellent mecha pilots, has also come into being. ”

"How can you find so many things on the Internet?"

Halfway through hearing this, Zheng Zha couldn't help but ask his own question: "Chu Xuan, a large part of what you just said should belong to that kind of highly confidential document, right...... Why can the principle of mecha piloting be found on the Internet? Is this source of information really okay? ”

"Because since the giant mechs and the 'Hunter Project' began to win one victory after another, they have been intoxicated with their victories, and even turned the attack of monsters into a propaganda propaganda and ritual."

Chu Xuan replied indifferently: "And the information I just said has been written into the corresponding network entries, and a lot of the information in it was revealed by those mecha pilots when they participated in the show...... Mortal wisdom, that's all. ”

"Showmanship? Or is it a message that was deliberately released to stabilize the economy and sell war bonds? Yang Yun made a more reasonable inference: "But from the current point of view, the situation seems to be deteriorating sharply, and setting up a defensive wall is an extremely negative way of defense, which is contrary to the previous strategic policy of taking the initiative to destroy the monsters." ”

"That's right, because the monsters are starting to get stronger."

Chu Xuan replied affirmatively: "The strength of the monsters given by PPDC is divided into five levels, and in the past ten years, they have gradually gone from the first level at the beginning, the second level, to the point where the lowest is now the third level. During the battle with the monsters, the mechs began to suffer a large number of casualties, and the monsters appeared more and more frequently from the depths of the Pacific Ocean. ”

"This year alone, close to double-digit mechs have been lost, destroyed faster than they can be produced, and the gap in pilots is terrifying. Therefore, the leaders of various countries, who are pessimistic about the future, jointly passed a bill nearly eight months ago - abandon the "hunter plan" to build mechas, and instead use all the funds to build the so-called separation wall. ”

"Of course, in diplomatic terms, it's 'in the best interest of all humanity to devote priority resources to assured defence, rather than risk-taking with no prospects.'"

As soon as these words came out, everyone on the Middle-earth team was suddenly quiet, and even a needle could be heard falling on the ground. In the end, it was Zheng Zhe who took the initiative to break the silence.

“…… Are they serious? Zheng Zha couldn't help but ask, "Give up the only weapon you have available in your hand and instead build a wall that looks unreliable?" This is suicide! ”

- This means that human beings have voluntarily abandoned the coastal zone and chose to retreat inland, giving up 71% of the earth's oceans to monsters.

Even Zheng Zha can understand the truth that if you keep it for a long time, you will lose: "Could it be that the people of this world think that steel and cement can keep those more and more monsters out of the wall?" Think about it with your ass and know that this is simply impossible! ”

Zheng Zhe's words were echoed by the rest of the group, none of them were stupid, and it was difficult for them to understand why humans should take the initiative to give up the only means that could fight the monsters, the giant mecha. At a time when the nuclear bomb, the strongest weapon of mankind, had little effect on the monsters, the mecha and the pilot should have been their greatest reliance against the apocalypse, rather than counting on the inexplicable "Maginot Line" in Chu Xuan's mouth...... Judging from the expressions on the faces of the people, they didn't seem to have much confidence in whether the wall could stop the monster.

“…… Chu Xuan, what do you think is the chance that the upper echelons of the human race will be under mind control or other influences? ”

Unlike other people's voices, Yang Yun thought deeper, in his opinion, it was unwise to give up the mecha plan, which was tantamount to handing over the fate of mankind to others. It is hard to imagine that this is a joint decision made by countries all over the world.

"At present, it is uncertain, and more intelligence is needed. Because I've seen more fools who unconsciously ruined everything for something ridiculous than there might be mind control...... The stupidity and lower limit of human beings are difficult even for me to estimate. ”

Chu Xuan shook his head, his brows furrowed deeply: "However, this possibility is not low. Therefore, in the following operations, we still try to avoid exposing ourselves, so as not to attract the attention of enemies who may be lurking in the shadows. ”

"In the first second that the protective shield of the Lord God disappeared, I used special means to shield the satellite surveillance, which means that unless we use unconventional means, the surveillance network and satellites will not catch our tracks. Next, as long as we don't make too much movement, we are equivalent to a group of "invisible people". ”

Chu Xuan said inexplicably reassuring words, and was almost completely prepared, and Yang Yun also understood what he meant: "Zhan Lan, keep your mental power shielded at any time, if there is any abnormal mental power fluctuation, or if you find something wrong, report it as soon as possible." ”

There was an affirmative reply from the Psychic Link, and after confirming that everything was normal, Chu Xuan said again; "On the surface, the worldview of this world is not complicated, and the theme is the battle between mecha and monsters. And the goal of the mission of the main god to blow up the 'rift' in the depths of the Pacific Ocean is the same as the purpose of those in this world who have not yet been wiped out of their blood. ”

"So, we need to take advantage of it."

Before Zheng Zha could understand what Chu Xuan meant, Yang Yun had already guessed what Chu Xuan was about to say: "So, where should we go to find those fighters who have not yet given up resistance?" ”

"Hong Kong Island, where there is one of the six bases of the PPDC, and the last and largest base......"

Chu Xuan raised his head, and when he mentioned the location of Hong Kong Island, his eyes flashed with an inexplicable light.
