Chapter 603: A Quiet Place: Repairing Logic Flaws (10,000 Days·First Update)
Three months later.
Lee Abbott, carrying a one-handed sword on his back, walked into Qin Yao's office with an old white man in military uniform, bowed and saluted: "See the savior."
Desk Behind, Qin Yaowei is sitting on a chair He nodded slightly and looked up at the old man with countless medals on his military uniform: "Who is this?"
"He is a military general who fled from the city to the countryside in a helicopter after the catastrophe broke out. "Lee Abbott briefly introduced.
Qin Yao narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at the medals on the opponent's body emphatically: "Look at this clothes, you are well prepared!"
"Deputy Commander of the Los Angeles Military Region, Yale, greets you. ." The old man bowed his head in greeting, his voice decisive and clear.
“Let’s be honest, what do you want from me?” Qin Yao nodded slightly.
“I want to be loyal to you.” Yale said.
Qin Yao: "Allegiance?"
This word is very interesting. Compared with surrender, it has a bit more pride and pride.
"That's right."
Yale said in a deep voice: "After listening to Li's story about you, I was keenly aware that the node that would change the world had arrived, so I begged him to take the lead. I'm here to see you."
Qin Yao stood up slowly and looked down at the thin old man with silver hair: "You are so old. I’m so old that my shoulders can’t bear it and my hands can’t lift it. What else can you do for me?”
Yale raised his right hand, bent his index finger, nodded his head lightly, and then pointed at himself. Eyes: "Although my body is no longer strong, my wisdom and vision can still be used, and I am willing to drive you."
Qin Yao thought for a moment and said: "If you join the base, what strategic proposition will you make?"
"Abandon the big cities and establish a survivor base in the countryside." Yale said quietly.
Qin Yao: "Are you sure you want to abandon the big cities instead of surrounding them with rural areas?"
Yale nodded slightly: "I'm sure! Because the gap between the enemy and us is really too big, so big We can win a hundred times, but if we lose once, we will lose everything."
Qin Yao looked into his eyes and said, "Tell me what you know about monsters."
Yale: "Known monsters are divided into three major levels. The lowest level is ordinary monsters. Their skin is invulnerable. It is difficult to kill them even with cannonballs. Only by using high-frequency sound waves to attack them can they be killed." Open the headgear to reveal the fatal weakness.
The mid-level ones are dark red monsters. High-frequency sound waves still have an impact on them and can restrict their behavior, but their headgear no longer opens and closes with the sound waves like ordinary monsters. This makes it difficult for humans to They are difficult to kill.
High. They are monsters with mysterious crystals in their brains. High-frequency sound waves will make them crazy, but they can no longer cause any harm to them.
They are the culprits responsible for destroying the military power of various countries and causing billions of human deaths. .For them, low-order and mid-level monsters were just low-level predators.
At that time, after they came to the world in flaming spaceships, it was not that there was no resistance from all countries in the world, but all the resistance did not last more than a month. They collapsed one after another.
We obviously have so many nuclear warheads, but we haven't fired a single one.
On the 33rd day when the disaster broke out, I saw that the situation was not good and proposed to the commander-in-chief to disband the army and break it into parts, but I was rejected.
I then left the military camp in a helicopter. The next day, the military camp was attacked by monsters and turned into ruins. "
Listening to Yale's narration, the plot at the beginning of "A Quiet Place 2" suddenly flashed in Qin Yao's mind.
In the movie, the origin of the monster is told in flashback. . That's business as usual. In the same way, on a sunny afternoon, people were playing, working, and playing. The TV in the supermarket reported that a certain city was attacked by monsters, but it failed to attract anyone's attention. < br>
However, in this peaceful environment, a huge fireball suddenly fell from the sky, hitting an unknown place. Soon after, monsters appeared in the town, hunting ordinary people...
Movie The plot and real-life experience at this moment highly overlapped in front of Qin Yao's eyes, and Yale's subsequent narration also made up for the logical flaws in the movie...
One link after another, a perfect fit. "So far, no high, high or low level monsters have appeared to eat people. In addition, high-level monsters basically live in big cities, and those wandering in the countryside are basically low-level monsters.
It can be inferred that the way they replenish energy is likely to be electrical energy
The power reserve situation in the countryside is completely incomparable with that in big cities, which leads to this situation.
Of course, it may be electronic components, or other things I didn't expect..."
Yale was still talking, but Qin Yao raised his hand after hearing this. Interrupted: "I have a question, can low-level monsters evolve into mid-level monsters? "
Yale paused and said seriously: "I think this is the case. There were definitely not as many intermediate monsters in the beginning as there are now! "
Qin Yao: "Now those big cities are basically occupied by monsters, right? What are the odds of having survivors in a big city? ”
Yale nodded and said: "The chance is less than one percent."
Qin Yao: "Then can we find a way to get some nuclear warheads, or launch nuclear strikes against those big cities?"< br>
Yale sighed: "I tried, but failed... Originally I was already despairing of this world, thinking that it was very possible for human beings to be like millions of Like the dinosaurs, the overlord of the earth, perished in this catastrophe
Until I saw the scene of Li fighting the monster alone, hope suddenly reignited in my dead heart.
So. I put on this treasured military uniform and came here, willing to use my old and disabled body to ignite hope for the world.”
Hearing this, Lee Abbott was in awe, and looked at Yale with a little more respect.
Qin Yao stared at Yale for a long time, then suddenly smiled, and the atmosphere suddenly relaxed: "Mr. Yale, welcome to join our doomsday survival base."
Yale said solemnly: "Please rest assured that I will definitely dedicate the last light and heat of my life to the base and the future of mankind!"
At the same time.
Abbott's home.
Evelin stretched out her hand to stop Regan, who was about to lie down on the bed, and said in sign language: "Stop!"
Regan, wearing a peaked cap and a mask on his face, also communicated with her in sign language: "Is something okay, Mom."
Evelin: “Take off the hat and mask.”
Regan: “I don’t want it.”
Evelin: “Don’t make me angry, take off the hat quickly. And take off the mask.”
Regan was silent for a moment, then raised his hat and took off his mask, revealing a fat, slightly bruised face.
“Who did you have a conflict with again?”
Looking at the scars on her face, Evelin’s expression was slightly complicated.
In the past two years, my daughter seems to have entered a rebellious phase. She is emotionally sensitive and likes to talk back. She will do whatever she is not allowed to do, which makes her and her husband very tired.
I thought she was stressed out in the dangerous environment outside. Unexpectedly, after arriving at the relatively safe base, her rebelliousness became more intense, and she somehow learned to be friendly with others. fight.
Last time it was because of a dispute over beliefs, and I don’t know why this time...
But even though she was very angry at her behavior, because of the other child’s congenital deafness, she was far more tolerant of him than she was with other children. Want more, so at this moment, I didn't say a word of accusation, I just wanted to help the other party solve the problem!
