【Summer Five】Iron City Wall

The third line of defense surrounds the city wall, and the B10 area is hundreds of kilometers away from the starting point of Wutiao. Even if the cross-country is maintained at full speed, it will take an hour.Before leaving the buffer zone, he first refueled the cross-country at the logistics station he had contacted in advance, carried various light but sufficient supplies, and then galloped away amidst the attention of the soldiers.

"Jie, plan the route." Wujo said to the headset, "I have applied for as many destroyer assistance as possible, at least I don't have to worry too much before leaving the first line of defense."

Xia You fiddled with the display screen, trying to adjust the skewed angle back to the horizontal line.

He was in a portable board room, and the military specially set aside a small independent space for this "foreign aid" so that he could communicate with Wujo without being disturbed.There are often chaotic footsteps and shouts outside the window. The phantom species that have just been suppressed still have the power to wreak havoc. Buildings collapse from the center of the earthquake source, and the scene is chaotic.

State University was the hardest hit in District Two. Even though he was lucky enough not to be in the center of the attack—and even took away a few students in the first place—he was still scratched by falling rocks and stray bullets, and the wounds were cold and painful.

The medical officer came up to him and asked if he needed help. Xia You covered his lips and said "Thank you" very softly, and asked the nurse to help him deal with it lightly.The wound was still oozing blood, and the temperature control ability of the simple board room was not very good. From time to time, the cold air came in through the cracks in the door, making the hands and feet numb.

But Wujo was on the way to a life-and-death mission, and he was also bursting with adrenaline, and he hardly felt any discomfort.The keyboard was struck with violent movements. Xia You repeatedly compared the intelligence and defense maps sent by the military headquarters, combined with the satellites on the ground to make a plan, and guided the five safest paths.

"Project α?" he asked while typing the code, "I heard that it is the winning method summed up in the previous two wars, but the casualty rate is quite high."

After a moment of silence, Wu Tiao replied: "When will the casualties not be high in a war? Besides, this method can ensure victory at least. As long as the rear does not lose the chain, it will not be dragged into a protracted war."

The processing speed of the two hands alone is obviously not fast enough, Xia You pressed his brows to think for a moment, and turned on the other two display screens that were in standby.He deftly opened the Walden Intranet, found the port, and began to input calculations into the dark command interface.After hearing five replies, he also said with one heart and one mind: "I agree. Besides, looking at the entire army, I'm afraid there is no one who is more suitable for carrying out the mission than you."

"Isn't it?" Wutiao spoke with a slight "hissing" sound, Xia You guessed that it was probably the sound of automatic circulation of oxygen production when the winter clothes were idle, "Entering the realm where S-level phantom species gather—it sounds difficult, As long as you can learn and use it flexibly, it is not impossible.”

Even though he said that, Xia You, as a good citizen who had never really dealt with foreign enemies, naturally couldn't get in the way.He wanted to say a few words based on the theoretical knowledge in the books, but felt that those things were too simple compared with Wutiao's personal experience, so he fell silent and continued to work on the task at hand.

Soon, the full set of calculation formulas was engraved into the intranet, and the data was scrolled and refreshed line by line, and the read source code was repaired.Within a few seconds, part of Walden Lake's operating mode was completely tampered with, specially edited into specialized programs for path planning, image comparison, and crisis avoidance, and mobilized a quarter of the resources to provide computing support for the five.

Feedback to the real point is that the refresh rate of the five real-time road maps and various data transmitted to the terminal is more than ten times higher, and the frequency is as fast as an epileptic seizure.He immediately understood what Xia You had done, even though he was getting closer to the second line of defense filled with fantasy species, he still couldn't help laughing.

"Is that how you treat Walden Lake?" His voice trembled slightly, but he couldn't help smiling. "Without official approval, this is a behavior that seriously interferes with residents' lives and violates most of the laws at one time."

With the help of an additional supercomputer, Xia You was able to deal with more complicated data.While checking the ground situation through satellites, he replied: "Anyway, it only takes up a quarter, and the parts they usually develop are only more than 60.00% in total. Regardless of urgent use or slow use, it is the same as usual, and no one can find it. "

Answering confidently, Wujo squinted at the four-legged sci-fi fantasy that broke into his field of vision, tapped the steering wheel, and let the off-roader make a loud sound.The Phantasmal Species immediately attracted attention, adjusted their direction with their companions scattered around the frozen ground—a total of hundreds of them—and rushed towards Wutiao.

"Okay, then let's see if Mordrian will be stuck in the middle of sending a text message and restart!" The hood is fully open.The moment the safety lock detection was settled, Xia You also sent a signal to the artillery stationed on the city wall, so that the destroyer guns closest to the five positions were adjusted, locked, and released at the moment of phantom pounce!

"Boom!" The turbulent electromagnetic energy erupted from the compression port at high speed, sweeping away the impact point and its surrounding tens of meters.Wutiao slammed on the accelerator and drove forward, leaving a large number of fantasy species behind the car.These ugly quadrupeds were immediately torn apart by the light, leaving only stumps on the ground.

Even through the highest-standard protective cover, the off-road is still affected by the power of the destroyer gun, and the bumps can smash the driver's ribs; Wu Tiao gritted his teeth and called "Jie", Xia You immediately invested in the next wave of intelligence analysis, guiding The artillery is cooling and reloading, ready to adjust the angle for the next cover.

Entering the range of the second line of defense, Wu Tiao was relieved, and immediately called up AI to analyze the vehicle situation.Fortunately, the damage was not serious this time, and the main power and track system were not damaged. Except for some abnormalities in the autonomous balance of the body due to a problem with the stabilizer, they were barely passable.

"We will continue to enter the gathering group ahead." Xia You said, his voice was extremely calm, and even the adrenaline level of the five surges gradually dropped. "Two destroyer cannons can be mobilized at the same time for support."

There was a dull cracking sound from the bottom of the frozen ground, and phantom species of various shapes gradually appeared in sight.Wutiao made a decisive decision, turned on the "Camouflage" on the panel to adjust the parameters, and let the AI ​​​​help to correct the deviation value, so that the off-road was submerged in a hide similar to the background color.

The ineffectiveness of traditional camouflage on phantom species is based on the conclusion of general surveys—because the functions of different types of phantom species are quite different, some groups can use sound waves to detect invisible opponents, so a general judgment is made, and no soldier should take chances , thinking that as long as you turn on the camouflage, you will be able to protect yourself.

But at this moment, in order to ensure that the cross-country persists until the B10 fills the area, Wutiao must do everything possible to reduce the number of times the destroyer is fired.One is that this kind of ammunition is very precious and should be used to wipe out enemy targets in a wider range; two is that even though it is protected by a protective cover, it is difficult for this off-road vehicle, including himself, to withstand excessive impact, and it is very easy to stall halfway.

"If you encounter a sonar system, mark it directly on the map." Wutiao slowly increased his speed, trying to bypass the larger fantasy species as much as possible, "Hurry up."

Not long after saying this, dense red dots appeared on the car map out of thin air, showing that its path was moving southwest.Wujo glanced distractedly, and found that the enemies with sonar basically gathered in the opposite direction. He relaxed for a while, and ran the steering wheel past several phantom species with a height of less than two meters.

Although the military channel was closed early, he counted the time silently and found that the first batch of Phantasmal Species entering the buffer zone should have already exchanged fire with the advance team.I don't know if those soldiers would cry in fright when they saw the overwhelming enemy, anyway, he didn't intend to worry about the children while thinking about himself.

"We are about to enter the third line of defense," Xia You's voice sounded again, "There are still 50 meters left, and we will meet the heavy terrestrial phantom species head-on. In addition, the rail gun has been activated and is being debugged at the phantom species, which can temporarily slow down avoid."

Where is there any incompatibility?Wujo stepped on the brakes immediately, slowed down the cross-country at a less awkward speed, and soon saw many fantasy species passing by him outside the window.These guys look heart-stopping, but what they do is even more heart-stopping—fortunately, low IQ is a good thing, at least when the two-pronged destroyer guns are fired, including the three 40-meter-high phantoms lying down slowly and turning into bombs flowers and dust.

The loud noise shook the wilderness, and Xiayou immediately adjusted the output power of the earphones remotely, creating a double doubled noise reduction environment for Wutiao.The latter was not affected by this, and the speed was increased again at the moment the destroyer was fired, and it ran over the phantom corpses piled up in a mountain.

"There is still about half an hour to go." Xia You said, "Just keep avoiding it and minimize the damage as much as possible."

Refresh the camouflage camouflage off-road, and always cooperate with the surrounding environment.With the guidance of Xiayou, Wutiao doesn't need to bother to look at the road conditions outside the window, just hold the steering wheel firmly and the accelerator to the end, and you can shuttle through the fantasy species community unimpeded.

The closer to the B10 area, the more phantom species gathered.The route planned by Xia You was the safest of all the plans, so it took a long detour to allow the five to observe the enemy at a relatively safe distance.They used high-speed cameras to record monsters with different shapes, and sent the data back to the experimental department in time, which is not only a reference, but also a field investigation for future research directions.

"Dr. Reka said that phantom species have the ability to interfere with the human spirit." In the prefabricated room in the second district, Xia You looked down at a few new text messages, trying to ignore the crying patients and their families outside the house, "Are you really Is it unaffected?"

Wutiao saw a few medium-sized phantom species from a distance, and immediately turned the steering wheel to avoid them, and ran over a few small species by the way; upon hearing this, he concentrated for a moment, and said, "Indeed there aren't any."

This is also the reason why it is difficult for human soldiers to overcome their sense of fear—from instinct, fantasy species naturally have the "mental pressure" to frighten human beings. If the genetic conditions are not good, they will have no fighting spirit like ordinary soldiers such as Mo Zhigen.Therefore, the Night Owl army set extremely high standards for joining the team. The purpose is to find fighters with good enough genotypes, or enough courage to resist fantasy species, so that they can exert at least [-]% to [-]% of their strength.

Even so, even the most elite fighters will always be affected, regardless of value.But when Wutiao was galloping on the snowy field densely covered by enemies, those disgusting sense of coercion like a gangrene never touched him.Relying on the full cooperation of Xia You and Walden Lake, he really fulfilled his promise to Mordrian—entering and exiting the enemy's camp is like entering his own backyard, using sufficient experience in fighting the enemy and mastering the habits of fantasy species to avoid crises.

The third line of defense is close at hand, and the lighthouse in the B10 area stands in it, but the light on the top of the tower is already quite weak.

"With B10 as the axis, there are no fantasy species within [-] meters. Maybe the boundary stone has some effect." Xia You added the data to Wutiao's virtual screen, guiding him to stop in front of the lighthouse.

The lighthouse made of boundary marker extract is the symbol of each line of defense, and it surrounds each area in an arc shape. The boundary marker stone placed on the top floor is responsible for resonating with other surrounding lighthouses, generating a reactive magnetic field to drive away fantasy species.Wutiao restarted his winter clothes, and the oxygen concentrator started internal circulation. He himself copied a few self-defense weapons and got out of the car, heading straight to the inside of the lighthouse.

After swiping the authorization card to open the door, he walked up the stairs and finally saw a five-meter-tall response machine on the top floor.The central core of this thing should have been fixed with a boundary stone, but now there are only a few drops of water left on the base, presumably it was exhausted in advance due to natural reactions.

Wutiao took out the new magnet from the sealed bag on his chest, manually stopped the reaction machine, pulled the brake to open the furnace core, and put the boundary stone into it.The knob is fixed, Xiayou remotely connects to the internal network, re-docks the shutdown reactor, and slowly restores power from the bottom gear.

"Back off," he watched the golden light gradually emerge from the reaction machine on the virtual screen, "the initial reaction after placing the boundary stone contains a small amount of radiation, it's better to back off... Enlightenment?"

Gojo lowered his head, his vision was blurred under the blindfold, and he lost consciousness without warning.
