Chapter 270: Looking at the Mortal World
No one expected that the company’s revenge would come so quickly.
The taxi braked suddenly, causing the customer who was watching the live broadcast in the back seat to jump up and almost hit the window. He was about to curse, but when he saw the pop-up content of this unmanned taxi from "Convance Travel", a sub-brand of [Time Series], the man was stunned for a moment.
[Dear customer, in the event of an emergency, your original destination has been converted into a war zone. According to the seventh sub-category of user requirements and the third supplementary terms, we will not be able to continue to provide services. , if you still need access, I will automatically transfer the 'armed access' business to you in three seconds -]
The man didn't even care to listen to the gentle criticism of the car AI, he quickly opened the car window, When he saw the scene outside, he was completely stunned.
The end of the sky in the distance is now covered by a dense and endless swarm of drones. Armed shuttles are flying at high speed one after another. Among the high-rise buildings with flashing neon lights, missiles are dragging their wakes, and plasma light cannons and plasma jets are spitting out. , sprinkling destruction on the distant land.
With a crack, a drone was caught off guard and exploded by a long-range blocker. It turned into a ball of gorgeous fireworks. The burning wreckage hit the armed shuttle moving at high speed next to it, and was shattered into pieces. Huge masses of burning broken parts littered the sky.
There are such fireworks exploding every second, and before the fireworks are fully bloomed, new aerial units smash into the sparks, braving passing beam cannon fire. A hail of bullets roared forward.
Armored vehicles roared on the elevated highway. On their outer armor plates, the logos of [Fubo Energy], [Southern Region Heavy Industry], [Zero Degree Network] and other companies were painted against the backdrop of the sky full of artillery fire. The light and darkness are uncertain.
“This, this is.”
The man was so horrified that he collapsed in the taxi.
In the field of vision of the prosthetic eye, on the electronic map, the street layout in front is all covered with a layer of dazzling scarlet, which is spreading rapidly. The "War Zone Warning" marks seem to be about to destroy the city. All drowned!
“——Execute the wartime plan! Press down all the security teams who have gathered! You all go together! Evacuate everyone nearby into air-raid shelters and shelters! I have to stuff them in too!”
In the temporary local command post, a middle-aged man grabbed a gun and yelled at the channel. The body armor he hung up in a hurry made him look bloated.
As a middle-level cadre of Enlightenment, he took half a day off today and wanted to handle some personal matters. Then, not long ago, after the torrent of pure color that covered the sky was extinguished, the armed forces affiliated with the company were like roaring waves. The floods were rushing towards the first and second districts like a tsunami!
It was too late to rush back to the base, so he made a decisive decision. While trying to break through the sudden network blockade and contact the Enlightenment command center, he showed his identity and gathered several members of the nearby Enlightenment security team. With the help of a brightly armed prosthetic body and Firearms set up a local command post in a civilian apartment and took over nearby blocks.
"Some people are unwilling to move! They are reluctant to give up money! They are still packing their things!" The other end of the channel was also yelling!
"Tell them! All the enlightened people will pay for the losses!" The middle-aged man punched the table, the steel plate made a loud bang and was deeply dented, and the simulated skin of his hands also tore and peeled off, revealing The color of the steel below: "If you are still unwilling to withdraw! Use fists! Use guns! In short, withdraw them as far back as possible!"
At this moment, a scream suddenly sounded outside the window.
The moment he heard this voice, the middle-aged man's expression changed drastically. He hugged the member of the security team who had gathered next to him and pushed the young man who was still stunned to the ground!
But the expected explosion did not come.
A deep black stream rose from the street, hitting the roaring and falling guided missile that was coming at high speed, washing and shattering in mid-air. In the shadow that solidified, the explosion of fire It lights up briefly and then goes silent, leaving only the final ring-shaped air wave that spreads violently.
At this moment, even the middle-aged man was stunned, and then the next moment, in the apartment, the shadow in the corner suddenly bulged, and a long-haired man walked out of it.
“Fast?!”
Seeing this figure, the middle-aged man’s surprise quickly turned into surprise: “Our response is so fast? Very good, no, that’s great. Fast! I just made a preliminary assessment of the situation in the three nearby blocks. We must first occupy the middle section of Bourne Street, which is connected to-"
My current position is located in the middle and outer part of the second area, and I must hold on to it. But with Fast and the "Shadow of the South" there, there is no need to hold on, and I can directly launch a surprise attack! Counterpressure against the company’s offensive!
"I need to leave." Fast interrupted the middle-aged man and spoke very quickly: "The original battle plan remains unchanged - this is an instruction from the commander-in-chief."
Current Commander-in-Chief of the Enlightened
Chakro Vaughn.
——Original plan?
As a middle-level cadre, the middle-aged man understood what the other party was talking about in an instant.
Whether it is in Cast Light City or outside Cast Light City, the advantage of the largest anti-corporate organization, [The Enlightened Ones] is not macroscopic power. The giant enterprise's huge comprehensive industrial chain, complete production system, and hundreds of thousands of company employees spread all over the territory of the enterprise alliance. It is an enlightened person who is an illegal organization and cannot be compared to it.
The real advantage of enlightened people, from beginning to end, is only one.
——That is a powerful "individual" that is no less powerful than any other party, born from the smelting of iron and fire!
Extraordinary individual soldiers and special operations are what the enlightened ones are really good at.
Long before the fall of Bordeaux, when they first settled in Cast Light City, the command center of the Enlightened Ones had already made the cornerstone of the future plan to seize Cast Light City after countless deductions and evaluations.
Decapitation tactics.
If the war begins, carefully selected elites from various branches will be selected to carry out a comprehensive beheading of the proposed list of Casting Light City, and use the power of thunder to clear away all the noise. In short, it must not Falling into the quagmire of a long war—the only outcome for such an enlightened person is failure.
This is doable.
As the only completely family-owned giant, [Fubo Energy]’s senior management and key positions are almost all held by members of the Groden family. This is the foundation on which “Groden’s glory” depends. They are by no means like other companies. Even the management members are just a more advanced domestic dog raised by the company that can be replaced at any time. If an accident occurs to a senior executive and a position becomes vacant, then even with the size of Fubo Energy, it will take significantly longer to transfer positions than other giant companies.
——In [Fubo Energy], the authority of "Groden" is absolute.
In this case, if a large number of important members die in a short period of time and core positions are vacant, then [Fubo Energy]'s power in Casting Light City and even the Rokar area will fall into a great shutdown and chaos. . Even with the size of [Fubo Energy], it would take a lot of time to refill these vacancies with "Groden".
That's enough.
Then let’s go.
"I have finished cleaning up the enemies nearby," Fast said.
The roar of an engine suddenly sounded outside the apartment.
It was very small at first, and one could not help but wonder if it was an hallucination, but soon, the sound came from far to near, like the tide at the end of the horizon, and in an instant it became a rumbling sound!
Motorcycles with weird and fancy paint, riders holding guns, laughing and flying, piecemeal and modified armed cars, full of people racing through the streets, trucks with thick armor plates, open tops, A heavy-duty minigun that was welded and fixed was revealed. Its operator smiled ferociously, and the prosthetic eye was connected to the intelligent control module, spraying flames forward.
One after another figures shuttled through the streets and alleys, climbed over the ceilings of buildings, and supported the planned defense fortifications. The monomolecular blade and the lightsaber slashed at each other, sparks popped out, and in the next moment, , the other hands of both sides reached to their waists at the same time, drew their guns and shot at each other.
A spider-type all-terrain hunter-killer drone dropped by the company at high altitude jumped nimbly and shuttled through the network of sentry machine gun towers, but suddenly triggered a trap and exploded into a ball of fire.
The firepower network formed by the Enlightened Air Defense System poured out its full force, as if it was going to shatter the sky. Against the sky full of artillery fire, several streaks of light soared into the sky and engaged the company's fourth-level unit that was about to break through the defense line with a single force. The aftermath of the collision between the two sides made the earth tremble and roar.
Support has arrived.
The middle-aged man opened his eyes wide.
The endless firelight outside the window was intertwined, and the light and dark were uncertain, giving Fast's face a little color.
"The rest have already gone, and it's time for me to leave too." He looked at the middle-aged man: "You guys, you have to protect this place."
The latter took a deep breath, and his face suddenly became fierce, He didn't say anything, just saluted, then pulled the stunned young man beside him and rushed out of the apartment.
Fast raised his head and looked in another direction.
His sight seemed to penetrate the walls of the apartment, from the dim world of frost and snow to the magnificent sunshine, past the low and winding slums, all the way forward, and arrived at the city of light. The most noble throne is Fubo Energy's corporate headquarters building in Zhuguang City.
At the top of the building, there is an open-air ceiling with howling wind.
The red-haired man was indifferent. He stood under the sky. His posture was as tall as a giant rock. Even the strong wind crushed it into dust. The nearby blocks that had already completed the transfer of assets, including the building below him, except for the personal guards. There is no other.
He overlooks the world and looks down upon the world.
In silence, declare to the world.
——I'm right here.
——Emmanuel Groden, this is it.
Want to kill me.
Come.
