Chapter 477 Should we let that guy Fang Chang come up with bad ideas?
Medics and mechanical engineers on the tracked vehicle are busy attending to injured teammates.
Looking at the captain who hung up the phone, the deputy captain sitting in the driver's seat immediately asked: "What did the superior say?"
His name is Song Changfeng, and familiar team members call him Lao Song. This old man worked in the Beacon Team a long time ago.
Zheng Hao was silent for a while and said: "The original mission has been cancelled. The containment planning team of the Investigation Department asked us to stand by at the pursuit point. If the other party moves, follow them, but do not act rashly to avoid a firefight." Everyone's expressions changed slightly.
.Lao Song asked cautiously, "Let us decide how close it is."
Hearing this sentence, many people breathed a sigh of relief. Except Lao Song.
Seeing that there was nothing more to say from the captain, he continued to ask anxiously, "Where are the reinforcements?"
Zheng Hao looked at the reeds outside the window. "I didn't say."
It was quiet inside the tracked vehicle, and fell into silence again.
Although the superiors did not say it clearly, it was obvious that they had given up on them and the captured prisoners. As for the reason, they did not need to know because of their authority.
The medic silently bandaged the wounded man lying on the stretcher and replaced the spare prosthesis. He had seen too many such situations.
Song Changfeng punched the steering wheel hard. "Damn it!"
Jiang Xuezhou, who was sitting in the back row, slowly closed his eyes, lowered his head and whispered softly. "I said... we didn't need to exchange fire." Zheng Hao silently lit a cigarette and replied lightly. "You think I have it?"
Do you want to choose?”
He was right to give the order to attack, but it was not his own arbitrary decision. It was just that he could not tell his teammates what the specific tasks given to him by his superiors were.
In the academy, it is a serious disciplinary violation for senior personnel to disclose information inconsistent with their authority to "unauthorized" low-level personnel, and will be punished regardless of whether it causes substantial impact.
All units only know the information they need to know to ensure the efficient operation of the entire system. In order to avoid errors, senior personnel will even reduce communication with junior personnel. He does not care whether these rules are reasonable.
In the academy, even the lowest G-class personnel and even newly accepted apprentices can live a prosperous life in the ivory tower built by the academy based on the standard of "academic preferential treatment".
For the survivors born in the wandering swamp, becoming a prospector of the academy is almost the only way to escape ignorance, poverty and barbarism. Although the science and technology committee led by the academy has given them some advanced technologies, it is not free.
Although many survivor settlements have received relatively advanced production technologies, the improved productivity has not enriched their material and spiritual lives.
To be honest, Zheng Hao no longer yearns for that ivory tower as much as he did when he was a child, and he has already passed the age of receiving higher education. If he cannot pass the professional examination and become a researcher, the highest grade he will get as a prospector in his life is D.
But it was absolutely impossible for him to accept the idea of returning to the original settlement of survivors and living a primitive life. Therefore, he could not make a mistake no matter what.
After finally reaching this point, he had to at least keep his D-class status. He didn't like the road he was walking on. But since he had chosen it, he had to accept it.
Since the Beta0.4 version was updated, Chu Guang saw that players had received good feedback on the new function of submitting tasks and receiving tasks on the official website, so he asked Xiaoqi to further update this function.
Now players can not only receive and submit tasks through the official website task interface, but can even update the task status in real time in the text dialog box of the task window.
This function is not mandatory, but only provides players with more options when the original mission is difficult to continue or almost impossible to complete. After all, in the wild where the alliance signal cannot cover, any unexpected situation is possible.
Chu Guang knew very well that he was just an ordinary person, not an omniscient and omnipotent god. He could not predict every possible situation perfectly. And his limited energy did not allow him to do so.
Sometimes Chu Guang himself would be confused for two or three seconds, not to mention the players being confused, like now.
Chu Guang was in a state of confusion.
He just sent someone to pick up a mother body on the edge of Luoxia Province. Why did he provoke the academy?
Although it was not his plane that crashed, the war in Luoxia Province is at a critical stage at the moment. It might not be a good idea to provoke the academy before the legion's problem is solved.
Apart from saying "Well done", he really couldn't think of how to respond to the little player who went to the official website to "report on his work".
However, he was confused for only half a minute. Chu Guang soon changed his mind and realized that things might not be as bad as he thought. A wanted D-class personnel had been hanging with him for almost a year.
, and didn’t see the second wave of bounty hunters coming for his head.
There were just a few E-class personnel, but they still died on the waste. A college with a big business might not take it seriously. What really made Chu Guang care about was another thing. "Are you here for Xiaoyu?"
Chu Guang pressed his eyebrows, thinking about countermeasures in his mind.
Xiaoyu is the key to solving the problem of the B6-level mother nest. It cannot be handed over under any circumstances. It must be moved from the power projection range of the college to a safe place as soon as possible before the top management of the college makes a decision.
However, the trouble now is that on the one hand, the company does not want anything to happen to the pilot, but on the other hand, it is unwilling to bear the risk of failed rescue. They hope that the alliance will send airborne troops to rescue the person.
However, Chu Guang really wanted to say, then why don't you send a few more transport planes over?
The alliance's airborne troops can set off at any time, but it is impossible for them to fly more than a thousand kilometers away and then run back on two legs. This is too stupid.
At this moment, Xiao Qi, who was sitting on the desk, raised her head and said in a pleasant voice. "Master, the representative of the company has just arrived at the airport, and he wants to see you." Chu Guang thought for a moment,
He said, "Let him come up. Okay."
The Heart of Steel lowered its elevator.
Yichuan, who had just gotten off the transport plane, quickly arrived on the Heart of Steel.
Hearing the footsteps outside the door, Chu Guang grabbed Xiao Ran who was sitting on his desk and stuffed him into the drawer regardless of the latter's aggrieved voice.
Almost at the same time, there was a knock on the door. Chu Guang cleared his throat and said, "Please come in."
The door opened, and Yi Chuan walked in eagerly. Without even saying a word of greeting, he went straight to the point and said, "Is there any news about our pilot?"
Chu Guang, "I assure you, both of you are still fine." Yi Chuan immediately asked with fiery eyes. "Can you contact them?" Chu Guang looked away with a subtle expression.
"It's not accurate to say that we can contact you, but we do have an indirect long-distance communication method that can transmit some vague information, just like your homing pigeons, but it doesn't allow you to communicate face-to-face with the two pilots.
Already.
Chu Guang had a headache when he explained this problem. To be honest, no one would believe it. However, he couldn't make up any reliable reasons. The Burning Corps actually carried a super powerful machine that could even break through the environment of Luoxia Province.
Restricted radio. Just kidding... He stuffed something on the Enterprise's plane. How could the Enterprise not know that he heard this vague statement? Yi Chuan frowned, but did not continue to dwell on this issue. Who?
Everyone has their own secrets.
It was neither realistic nor polite to ask the other party to confess unilaterally. Taking a deep breath, he stared at Chu Guang and returned to the topic.
"The spokesperson of the Supreme Council has promised the public before that we will not let our non-combatants appear on the front line, but in fact we have broken the bottom line for you several times...including previously at Camp 530, including previously at 7
Highway, including..."
Chu Guang coughed lightly.
"I would rather call it a change than a breakthrough of the bottom line, and every time I have made unexpected progress, right? But not this time."
Yi Chuan continued with a stiff expression, "We two pilots fell on the edge of the Wandering Swamp! You promised me that those non-combatants will not be in danger."
Chu Guang explained: "Anything can happen on the battlefield, let alone outside the battlefield. Who knows, people from the academy will suddenly attack your plane. At least our soldiers saved your pilot."
Yi Chuan's expression froze. "College," Chu Guang said softly and unkindly.
Besides the academy, who else can shoot down your plane without anyone noticing? You can ask your pilots about this when they come back."
In fact, he had more direct evidence to prove that the academy shot down their plane. For example, the simplest one was the four prisoners captured by the players. However, he was not sure about the company's attitude towards the academy.
The importance of the pilot's life does not conflict with the cautious diplomatic strategy of the company. One is the consideration of interests, and the other is the consideration of risks. Individual feelings may be impressed by three seconds of memory, but the collective decision-making must be weighed
Consideration after many factors.
So he planned to test the attitude of his allies first.
Yichuan was silent for a while, as if he didn't intend to talk more about this issue.
"...Let's not talk about the academy's affairs for the time being. No matter what, you must ensure that the safety of our pilots is the first priority."
Seeing Yi Chuan's expression, Chu Guang raised his eyebrows slightly.
What surprised him was that the company representative didn't react much to this, and his expression seemed like he wasn't even too surprised.
It seems that there should be a lot of friction between colleges and enterprises.
But think about it, the world is so vast, and it's not just Luoxia Province. Maybe it's not impossible that colleges and companies still have entanglements in other areas that they don't know about.
Realizing that the company probably didn't want to cause trouble with the academy's issue, Chu Guang did not continue to quarrel, but returned to the issue of rescuing the pilots.
Looking at Yi Chuan with a serious face, Chu Guangyi said righteously.
"Mr. Yichuan, do you mean that the life safety of alliance residents is not important? I must remind you that we are allies in the same trench as you, not your employees. I don't mean that!"
Seeing that Chu Guang had misunderstood what he meant, Yi Chuan quickly explained, dumbfounded, "Every life is important, and of course the residents of the alliance are too... Let's not beat around the bush, let me just say it straight. The council promised to the residents of Ideal City
However, non-combatants will not be put in danger, but the reporter of "Ideal City Daily" got wind of it somewhere and insisted that we let employees bear risks beyond the employment contract."
Chu Guang asked impatiently, "What will they do if they know?"
The seats on the council were not elected by vote, and he had wanted to complain about these forward-thinking guys before.
"Negative news can affect our stock price. The stock price is the support of Ideal City residents for us. This involves Cr... which is the essence of credit points."
Yi Chuan smiled bitterly and continued, "In short, credit is a sensitive issue for us... You don't want the amount of our assistance to you to be affected, right?"
Chu Guang took a deep breath and slowly calmed down his emotions.
"I also hope they will go home quickly, so please send two more... no, four planes over immediately! I can immediately detach a hundred-man team from the front line and deploy it to the north."
Yi Chuan: "But the question is, what if we are shot down again?"
"Then let it land at Oasis No. 8! The desert is our power projection range!"
Chu Guang stretched out his index finger and made a scratch in the air, pushing the holographic map prepared in advance in front of Yi Chuan, "I will let my subordinates deliver your pilots to the boarding point safely... Of course, including ours
." Looking at the marked position on the map, Yi Chuan's face was filled with embarrassment.
However, it was obvious that he could not think of a better alternative to Chu Guang's proposal, and finally chose to take a step back. "Okay, I will convince our people over there that the boarding location is in Luoxia Province...
There should be no problem."
The Alliance has enough influence in the Luoxia Province. Even if the Golden Lizard Kingdom is a vassal of the academy, they may not dare to do anything to their aircraft. And that kind of indigenous kingdom... I guess they don't have the ability to be as bad as the academy.
Suddenly, they shot down their plane. Chu Guang nodded,
"Go quickly, our people can leave at any time."
Watching Yi Chuan leave the captain's office, Chu Guang frowned slightly, rested his head on the back of the chair and muttered to himself.
"That way it should be fine."
For the sake of those cute little players, his plan to be both an NPC and a father really broke his heart. He was forced from a salesman to a nanny.
At this time, the drawer opened a crack, revealing a pitiful face about the size of a thumb. "Ugh... Master, is Xiaoran so shameless?" This guy even changed his voice in order to pretend to be pitiful.
Chu Guang coughed.
"That's not the case, it's just... I am the manager of the alliance after all, and I represent the image of the alliance. It would not be good to have a figure on the table when meeting foreign guests." The player let it go.
He never cared about how those guys who spoke out loud arranged themselves on the forum, as long as he didn't draw his own script.
But after all, the company is an outsider, and he doesn't want to hear any rumors in Ideal City that will damage his prestige and add unnecessary risks to the cooperation between the company and the alliance.
Xiao Qi, who was lying in the drawer, tilted her head.
"But Xiaoran feels that they seem to be quite avant-garde on AI issues... they shouldn't care, right?" Chu Guang said with a straight face, "I care." Xiaoqi said, "Ugh."
Although he knew that the aggrieved look was a simulated program, Chu Guang still sighed and couldn't help but stretched out his index finger to rub its little head.
"I'm sorry, my action may have been a bit rude just now. Next time I'll have someone give you a special seat on the table with your back to the door."
"Hehe, no need. Xiaoran will be very happy if the master has this kind of heart! Xiaoran is the master's assistant. Xiaoran is very sensible and will not cause trouble to the master."
The grievance expression suddenly disappeared from the doll's face, and the smile on its small and exquisite face was like a rainbow after the rain and the sky clears up.
Just as Chu Guang guessed, this guy's expression was indeed fake. After all, where did "Waste Basket" get so many expressions?
Chu Guang couldn't help but feel helpless. The world had become such a mess. God knows why the first-generation manager added a bunch of redundant functions to his Al assistant that increased communication costs. Although he didn't hate it.
Xiaoran, who put his hands on the edge of the drawer, didn't know what the owner in front of him was thinking at this moment. He put his chin on the back of his hands and blinked humanely.
"Master, can you agree to Xiaoran's small request? Tell me."
Xiaoran said a little timidly.
"Um... next time, instead of stuffing Xiaoqi into a dark drawer, can you just put it in a ghost as usual?" Is there any difference?
There was no light bulb in his pocket, and it was also pitch black. Although he was curious, Chu Guang did not inquire further. Maybe the AI also had its own difficulties. This was not a difficult thing for him to satisfy.
Stretching out his index finger and rubbing its little head, Chu Guang smiled gently and said, "Yes, I promise."
The intersection of Wandering Swamp and Luoxia Province.
Lao Bai, who just returned online, summoned the players in the temporary camp. "New Mission"
"The headquarters asked us to take the pilots and the prisoners from the academy and head towards the northern part of Luoxia Province. We will board the plane at Oasis No. 8, and reinforcements will join us at that time.
"What about this plane?" Ye Shi pointed to the two pilots not far away who were thinking about how to repair the plane. Lao Bai shrugged his shoulders and made a helpless expression. "It seems that there is no hope.
"
By the time that guy understands the instructions, all the regular troops from the academy may be surrounding him.
I heard that the academy also has its own armed forces, and there are many vassals attached to the academy in the Wandering Swamp. In order to replace expensive bionic prosthetics, many bounty hunters and mercenaries are happy to take over the academy's work.
Although I'm not afraid of those guys, if there are too many of them, they will eventually be a problem.
And compared with the legions that were going straight, the equipment of the academy was too flashy, making it difficult to detect. Looking at the transport plane, Ye Shiyi said with a reluctant expression on his face, "It would be a pity for such a good plane to blow up."
Ah." Guangfeng glanced at him sideways. "Why are you planning to carry it back?"
Ye Shi looked at Luo Yu next to him who also had a look of reluctance.
Noticing Ye Shi's gaze, Luo Yu was stunned for a moment and said with a wry smile. "Look at what I'm doing. I don't know how to repair this thing." Ye Shi said with a smile.
"Instead of asking you to repair it, isn't your Xiaoyu capable of giving birth to children like other mothers? It's the kind of evolved body we saw in the center of Qingquan... See if you can make it come out in one piece.
"No chance!" Luo Yu shook his head: "Xiaoyu is different from the mother nest in Qingquan City. It cannot be attached to mechanical parts."
Ye Shi was stunned for a moment and asked, "Then how does it fly a plane?" Luo Yu thought for a while and gave his own opinion.
"That Dragonfly transport plane...probably because it inherited part of my experience. As for the Eagle fighter, it may have assimilated the opponent's pilot.
"So in essence, its fruiting body does not assimilate the machine into a part of the body, but through its own experience... driving the machine that is still working, am I right?" Guangfeng summed it up sharply.
Luo Yu immediately nodded, "Yes, that's what I mean." Guangfeng touched the bridge of his nose, and there was probably nothing he could do.
To give a popular example, Xiaoyu's ability is to sit in the driver's seat and drive, while Qingquan City's Brood is to directly carry the car on his shoulders and run. They are also organically driven machines, but anyone who is not blind can see the difference between the two.
.
The idea of using slime mold to swallow the plane seems to be unfeasible, and it is even more unrealistic to let the strength system carry the plane. There are still nearly 200 kilometers of mountain roads from Oasis No. 8.
Carrying such a large transport plane back and hiking over mountains and ridges is no longer a beast of strength, but a Kryptonian."
However, Ye Shi did not give up just yet.
His eyes rolled, and something suddenly moved in his mind. He wanted to prevent that guy Fang Chang from coming up with bad ideas. Murderous Dagger's eyes lit up and he said, "I think 0K."
The dog picked up the good name and raised his hand excitedly. "+1, Brother Fang must have a way!" This guy has planned PY with the dog, and he must know some inside stories of the game that ordinary people don't know.
Seeing so many people supporting him, Ye Shi immediately took action and hid the quit-smoking brother's VM in a nearby bush as a locator. This thing requires verification of DNA information before it can be unlocked, and he didn't worry about being picked up.
Besides, this thing is just a terminal, and there won’t be any sensitive things stored in it. He clapped his hands and stood up, Ye Shi looked at the stunned blast, chuckled and said, “Done.” After a while, I went offline and went to the forum @方长
.Bangfeng calmed down and said seriously, "I think Fang Chang may not have any solution."
"How will you know if you don't give it a try? Forget it if you don't. At worst, I'll quit smoking and buy a VM." Ye Shi patted Guangfeng on the shoulder and said with a smile, "Let's go, Qianhuo is gone."
After confirming the new mission of the transfer, Lao Bai divided into two teams and went to the crash sites of the Eagle fighter jet and the Dragonfly transport aircraft respectively.
The fruiting body samples there were recovered. The group packed up their things and prepared to evacuate.
The prisoner named Wu Liangping was seriously injured and fell into a coma, and was stuffed into a cryogenic sleep chamber. The android from before was put in a body bag and wrapped in tinfoil with tape.
Seeing these people taking him away, Zhao Xiao suddenly became nervous. "Where are you taking us?"
"It has nothing to do with you, just follow him honestly." Ye Shi poked him in the back with his pistol and said with a playful smile. Zhao Xiao said with nervous eyes.
You'd better let us go. This is the edge of the Wandering Swamp - it's impossible for you to get out of here with us. This kind of indifferent harsh words will not make people angry.
Ye Shi, who was escorting him, smiled and joked: "No way, it's okay to walk out. With all due respect, with your level just now, no matter how many times you come back, you will end up dead."
Zhao Xiao blushed and said angrily: "We are an exploration team, and... we are not a regular army! And... let me tell you, we are official prospectors, and we are also E-class! There is no way the academy will let us go.
No matter!" And it's still E-level, so it's okay. Are there F and G below E-level? Judging from his expression, it seems to be true. But Yao Shi doesn't take it to heart. So what if it is.
"Stop bragging, you should be confident when you are being cannon fodder," Ye Shi said lazily: "And if we really go by what you said, we won't be able to let you go. Otherwise, we won't let you go until your reinforcements come."
Who is the cover?" "You guy..."
Zhao Xiao blushed and wanted to say something more. Chen Yutong, who had been silent next to him, finally couldn't hold it in anymore and stopped him. "Zhao Xiao has talked enough, stop talking."
If she continued talking, she was afraid that these people would change their minds and she would just bury them on the spot.
The reminder from his teammates seemed to have some effect, and the young man finally realized his position and shut up. Ye Shi didn't bother to pay attention to him.
This guy always reminds him of the time when he was young and ignorant. Although he is not that old now.
After half a day of running around, the group of people had left the range of the Wandering Swamp and arrived at the edge of the mountains in the northern part of Luoxia Province.
There are many alien species active here that no one has ever seen in the River Valley Province, but fortunately the number is not very large and there is no danger. It is too dangerous to drive at night in an area where alien species are active.
Lao Bai chose a place with a relatively good view to set up camp. Some people stayed to watch the first half of the night, and some people went offline to eat. Official website forum
As soon as it went online, Ye Shi couldn't wait to open a post, fearing that his teammates would beat him to it. "The big journalism school shot down the corporate plane."
Although "stealing a plane" can be discussed in a small group, discussing it in a small group is not as interesting as discussing it with everyone.
Ye Wei swore.
This is definitely not to show off or show off. It is mainly for "brainstorming"
Just as he expected, almost at the same time that the post was posted, there were hundreds or even thousands more clicks in a single refresh. The tail said "giao!" and Si Si said "Really?"
Garbage Picking Level 99 "You opened the north map as soon as I went to the south"
Quit smoking, which had just been disconnected for less than 24 hours, also appeared immediately, and his thoughts were as offline as ever. "Damn, this is going to start a war with the college again."
