"It's useless even if you are prepared." The clown also climbed to the top of the tower. "In the face of absolute power, all means are meaningless."

"Are you so sure that the people sent by Zeus are here to kill us?" Soap whispered, "And are they really that strong?"

"You will know after reading." The clown didn't care about Soap's doubts, "But we must move in time before the whole team is wiped out."

"Why? Isn't it safe to be so far away?" Soap was a little confused.

"The institute has a device that can peek into the memory of the human brain... Even if it is a dead person, the memory in the brain can be preserved for a period of time after death. If they find that there are still people in this team alive, they will definitely have a negative impact on this area.

If we conduct a blanket search of the area and even send more manpower, it will be very difficult for us to leave here."

"Is there such a thing?" Zao Zao said in astonishment, "Can a person dig out his memories after death? Why does this thing sound more mysterious than Meng Po Soup?"

"I have heard of this kind of thing." Noir nodded slightly, "I have seen this kind of thing in an operation. At that time, we received intelligence in advance that a group of exiles under the control of a heretical sect was going to attack a group of people.

At a remote transit station, the field corps and security bureau agents jointly set up a

They set up an ambush and killed all the attackers. I saw people from the Security Bureau using that thing on living people... They quickly dug out the location of their lair and planned it in less than half an hour.

Counterattack plan. I am the pilot who flew the bomber to attack that settlement in the counterattack plan."

"That is also used on living people... I remember that when a person dies, don't brain cells also die quickly?" Soap muttered, "Faced with a pile of rotten protein and fat, what can those machines find...

…”

"I don't know if that kind of equipment can be used on dead people, but the soldier who stayed at the transfer station and was responsible for guarding the prisoners later told me that of the six people whose memories were 'searched', four died suddenly on the spot, and the remaining two were one

Crazy, a person with dementia... That thing is completely injurious to the brain.

On the contrary, when those electrode pads are attached to a person's head, it is like inserting an eggbeater into the brain and stirring up the brain matter crazily... This description may be a bit exaggerated, but it is said that during the 'interrogation process'

During the incident, one of the prisoners sprayed nosebleeds even onto the roof of the tent."

"I don't think it's cruel to use that kind of thing against heretical sects...but if you use it against your own people..." Soap shuddered and did not continue.

"Stop arguing!" Simon, who had been observing the situation at the safe house, suddenly said, "There seems to be something wrong with that floating vehicle."

"If you find anything, just tell me and don't play charades with me." Soap said impatiently, "I have never flown a plane and I don't understand mechanics. Even if you put that thing in front of me and let me see it, I can't see it.

Come up with a reason."

"Then...isn't that a cyborg?" Soap asked, "a combination of biology and machinery..."

He quickly looked up and saw that the huge steel structure dome was being torn apart by a terrifying force. The fleshy fungi covering the surface of the Ark was invading from the cracks in the dome, quickly occupying every space above their heads.

An inch of space.

"No, that direction is completely opposite to the transformation of cyborgs." The clown vetoed. "Cyborgs are installing biochemical machinery on living creatures, or placing the consciousness of living things into mechanical containers.

.But this technology is to fuse cells and machinery, allowing the machinery to give birth to self-consciousness like a new life... The human civilization in this time and space once used this technology to create super creatures that can control the operation of the entire hive.

Computers, and the core brain of Ark, are also derived from this technology."

"It is originally alive." The clown said behind the two of them. "That kind of 'meme' can not only infect living things, but can even infect programs like a computer virus... or even AI. According to some secret research groups of the institute,

With the remaining technology and the 'good stuff' in the underground icehouse, they can completely combine biology and machinery to form a brand new life form."

"What is it?" Soap asked along the way.

To be honest, his impression of Simon is quite good. If possible, Soap still hopes that Simon can survive——

"Are you lying to me?!" Soap turned his head and looked at the clown, "Those people didn't do anything at all!"

"That kind of equipment has many limitations, and the memories retrieved may not be complete. If they are willing to actively cooperate, it is naturally better than using Qiang." The clown said, "What's more, the equipment used to search for memories is better when used on living people than on dead people.

The effect is better.”

"Okay..." Noir continued, "The engine used by the aerospace vehicle is the LVL8 produced by 'Loppe Aerodynamics Company', which means the 'eighth generation light vertical lift engine'..."

"What's wrong?" Soap was startled by his exclamation, and immediately turned the knob on the side of the telescope to switch to thermal infrared mode.

"Are you wondering why that aerial vehicle can still fly?" Soap asked, "Could it be that they modified the engine? It looks like an eighth-generation shell on the outside, but it's an eighth-generation shell on the inside.

Is it the ninth generation, tenth generation or even newer core?"

"Don't you think your explanation is a bit feeble?" Soap said, "You have told us so much before, but all of this is just one side of your words. From my perspective, everything so far is...

Proceed as planned - except for you."

"You...you bastard!" Soap cursed in a low voice, "If I go back now, I will only be regarded as a traitor who is greedy for life and afraid of death! Do you think they will listen to your rhetoric like me?"

Just as they were talking, the black floating vehicle had already flown away from the neighborhood... Soap just breathed a sigh of relief when he heard a heart-wrenching "click" sound coming from above his head.

"It's reliability. Even if a single engine of the commonly used tenth, eleventh and twelfth generation LVL is damaged, the remaining engine will maintain the balance of the body under computer adjustment. But the eighth generation

On behalf of LVL, if one engine fails, the entire aircraft will immediately lose balance. If the other engine is not turned off immediately, the aircraft will spin like an out-of-control kite, be thrown out, and then crash."

"They... they seem to have broken out from the blockade?" Seeing the tragic situation of this floating vehicle, Zao Zao had a doubt in his heart. Could it be that the other party was acting? But this acting was too realistic, right?

?According to the clown, if Zeus's people can really crush the team with absolute strength, there is no need for them to act.

"Pay attention to the engine of that floating vehicle..." Noir prompted.

The man I know is the observer of the scout team - no, it should be the sniper now, Simon Villiers.

"We have to get out of here! Hurry!" Noir put away the telescope, turned and ran towards the stairs, while the clown jumped directly from the top of the tower as before.

In the thermal infrared mode, the floating fighter jet in the distance is a red color block, and inside the color block, there are orange and yellow color blocks that represent higher temperatures squirming.

Half an hour passed quickly, and there was no movement from the safe house. The anti-peeping design also prevented Soap and Noir from seeing what was going on inside the house. Just when Soap was about to put down the telescope and eat something first

As I was filling my stomach, a slight "buzzing" sound came from far away and gradually approached the neighborhood.

Although he was not the one facing those men in black, Soap couldn't help but hold his breath, and his heart rate also increased significantly.

"Our specific location should not have been exposed yet." The clown shook his head, "But it doesn't mean much to them... These things will fill every corner of this neighborhood and swallow up everything they touch.

."

"Have they discovered us?" Soap asked the clown with a horrified look on his face.

"Whether you believe it or not, it's all up to you. You could have chosen to stay at that time. I gave you a chance."

"No... do you know the reason why the eighth generation LVL was eliminated?"

"What's wrong?" Hearing what Noir said, Soap immediately grabbed the telescope and looked in the direction of the safe house.

"A normal body should not look like this in thermal infrared mode. If this were the case, the cooling device would have already failed and overheated and exploded!" Noir said, "It doesn't look like a mechanical creation...More

, more like a living creature!”

"You were threatening me then!" Soap shouted in a low voice.

"Then where do you think they will take these people?" the clown said, "Obviously, Simon told them what happened in the safe house, which made them change their attention... In contrast, I

It's the 'big fish' that they care more about."

"The Amran-class transport aircraft uses the eleventh generation LVL. The eighth generation LVL has long been eliminated. Only some 'no-name assemblers' put together by some civilian companies using second-hand parts will use this engine.

." Noir said, "No wonder I don't recognize the model of this aerial vehicle. This is not a standard model vehicle at all."

"What does this mean?" Soap asked doubtfully, "Is it possible that the vehicles with advanced engines were destroyed or put into the battlefield, so they can only drive this shabby old antique to join us?

."

He is very conflicted in his heart now. He hopes that the men in black are really the enemies who came to kill them as the clown said, but he also does not want the rest of the team and his old partner Giraffe to die... This kind of

The tangled psychology put Zao Soap in a very irritable state, unable to calm down and think about the problem at all.

"What's the meaning?"

"No... that aircraft... it... you switch the telescope to thermal infrared mode! This... this is impossible!!" Noir suddenly exclaimed.

"Here it comes!" Soap raised his hands, held the telescope in front of his eyes, and looked towards the source of the sound.

It was a completely black "Ark-specific aerial vehicle", but the model of this aerial vehicle had never been seen before, and there were shocking wounds everywhere on the surface of the vehicle, as if it had experienced many tragic events.

Like a battle, that buzzing sound like a buzzer was emitted by one of the damaged suspension engines.

"Then why didn't they kill Simon and the others?" Noir also asked, "If we need to extract information from them, wouldn't it be better to use that kind of equipment?"

The men in black did not take action directly as Soap expected, but let Simon board the floating vehicle... Before long, other people in the safe house also came out and climbed into the floating vehicle one by one.

Inside the cockpit of an empty vehicle.

"Then you can go back now, I won't stop you." The clown shrugged and said in an indifferent tone.

The black floating vehicle hovered directly above the safe house. Several soldiers in black clothes and black pants slid down the rappel to the ground. Not long after, the iron gate of the safe house opened a crack, and a

The figure emerged from the crack in the door.

"Fuck! Fuck!" Soap cursed two curse words in succession, pushed a diluted tranquilizer into his arm with a trembling hand, and ran quickly after Noir.

To say they were running, it would be better to use the word "jump" to describe it more appropriately. The two of them were almost jumping down level by level, completely regardless of whether this water purification tower that had been in disrepair could withstand a fully equipped person.

The impact of soldiers falling from a high place - the growth rate of those fleshy bacteria blankets is so fast, just like dough with yeast added under the accelerating lens. In just a few seconds, the original steel structure dome has been completely

Can't see it anymore.

[P.P.S. I finally found some time this afternoon to watch "The Wandering Earth 2", which I have been longing for. I originally planned to watch it on the first day of the new year, but either I had arrangements and no time, or I couldn't get the tickets at the right time and in the right location.

, so it was postponed until the tenth day of the lunar month.

I won’t spoil the specific content. In short, my evaluation is just one sentence: It’s so damn exciting!

The three-hour length and top-notch special effects are completely worth the price of the ticket. Even if the movie ticket is twice as expensive, I think it is worth it! There is no peeing in the three-hour process, the plot is compact, there are a lot of easter eggs and jokes, and the multi-line plot is simultaneously

Advancement, coupled with various foreshadowings that echo the first part, have been dug into new holes, and many non-original parties can’t figure it out in the first part.

Everything in the second part has been well explained... I originally thought that it would be difficult for sequels that are generally called masterpieces to surpass their predecessors, so I didn't have high expectations this time. As a result, this
Chapter completed!
