Chapter 316 No, you will self-destruct if you can’t beat them?
Saleh felt like she had had an extremely long dream.
In the dream, the conservatives and radicals broke completely. After the latter took advantage and completed the great purge, they led the entire civilization to launch a space-time expedition without hesitation.
This is an expedition with no retreat, and no one knows where the final result will lead their civilization.
Salih, who has always firmly opposed the completely uncontrollable plan of the 'Time and Space Expedition', retreated to this 'Think Tank No. 322' with his companions after the great purge against them began.
As the deacon of a think tank, she and her companions resisted for a long time with the help of a small number of combatants and defensive devices in the think tank. However, due to a serious shortage of combatants and technical weapons, the think tank was eventually captured by radicals.
All the companions were executed mercilessly, and the ridiculous charge given to them was 'impeding the development of the entire civilization'.
As for her, who served as the defense commander of the think tank at the last moment, the radicals did not directly execute her, but locked her in a cryogenic sleep chamber and exiled her.
At the moment the cabin door closed, Saleh heard the last words left to her by the leading radical elite soldier:
"Traitor, take your pathetic Let your compassion remain in this hopeless universe forever.”
And now, the dream has finally awakened.
“Welcome back, respected deacon of Saleh Think Tank, this cryogenic sleep time is 734,825,172. Days"
"Wait, how many?"
Saleh was stunned for a moment, and her brain instantly converted this long series of numbers into a more intuitive unit.
2013219.65 More than two million years? ? ?
"Are you crazy? Is this assistant AI really dreaming?"
Then she suddenly realized that she didn't seem to be dreaming. Everything that happened in the 'dream' was what happened to her before she was forced into cryogenic hibernation. .
Then, the think tank deacon suddenly thought of another question.
If the radicals put themselves into a cryogenic sleep chamber and then took the entire civilization to carry out a 'time and space expedition', then who woke them up?
The radicals would not be kind enough to set a time and end their cryogenic hibernation after a certain time.
After "sleeping" for more than two million years, Saleh found that she was still a little awake for a while. The special brain structure of the Jerram people meant that she needed to spend some time waiting for the "partitions" in her brain to develop one by one. be reactivated.
The soft foot-like tentacles on the back of her head were originally coiled together. Under the stimulation of the recovery fluid injected after the dormant cabin entered the 'wake-up procedure', they slowly unfolded and at the same time returned to their normal softness. , fullness - this is part of the Jerram brain.
These 'soft foot-like tentacles' that are directly connected to the brain are actually extra partitions of their brains. Only when they are all reactivated can Saleh's thinking, calculation, and psychic control abilities truly return to normal. to peak condition.
"The wake-up procedure has ended. The external command has been received and the sleep cabin is being opened."
The voice of the assistant AI sounded in Saleh's mind again. For Jerram, who is extremely advanced in psychic technology, For humans, it is a basic operation for psychics to connect Jeram people to the 'Internet of Everything'.
"External command?"
Salih frowned and applied a psychic shield to himself - during the 'wake-up procedure' of the dormant cabin, there was a 'super fast charger' ' function can quickly recharge the Jerram who is awakened from sleep to cope with possible emergencies.
And now, this function is rarely really useful.
"Assistant, connect to the dormant area defense weapons."
"Connecting to psychic signals. Currently available defense weapons are 0"
"Tsk"
Saleh thought of the attack and defense battle of the think tank that he experienced before going into hibernation. When the think tank finally fell, most of the defense equipment was indeed destroyed, and the energy conversion core was also severely damaged.
If he had slept for more than two million years according to what the assistant AI just said, the other equipment in this think tank would have been almost eroded by time.
While thinking about this, the door of the dormant cabin slowly opened.
When the condensed white mist gradually dissipated, Saleh also saw clearly a circle of creatures on guard near his dormant cabin. Homo sapiens wearing ancient mechanical exoskeletons and holding bizarre weapons?
“These Homo sapiens who were pushed back to the Stone Age have evolved again?”
While Saleh quickly recalled the huge fleet of the Jerlam people in his mind, he The galaxies controlled by Homo sapiens were bulldozed one by one, and all the technical information of this civilization was stripped away, returning it to the Stone Age. At the same time, it was thinking about how to greet these 'Homo sapiens'.
The language system at that time is definitely unusable now, and Saleh, who has a 'spiritual mysophobia', is not willing to use psychic powers to 'communicate directly' with these Homo sapiens.
However, this issue soon no longer required her to think about it, because the people from the Quest for Truth Foundation were the first to break the silence.
"Control team, go up and control this creature. Other units should be on alert and fire directly if there is any abnormality."
The Puppet Master issued the order. This is also the routine operation of the Quest for Truth Foundation when encountering unknown creatures in the Forerunner ruins. When communication is impossible, it is obvious that 'violent means' can be used to communicate more directly.
The moment he controlled the surrounding armed units through spiritual energy, Saleh noticed it.
Before the Foundation soldiers armed with non-lethal weapons could gather around, the 'Forerunner' flew directly out of the dormant cabin.
"Fire! Fire!"
The next second, the surging firepower from the Foundation flooded the area where Saleh was located. The sleeping cabin and maintenance area in the area were also destroyed under the fierce firepower attack.
A series of explosions directly blocked everyone's sight, but they did not cease fire and continued to cover the target area with fire.
Amber's eyes widened when he saw this in the distance. He never thought that the "archaeological excavation" work of the Quest for Truth Foundation would be carried out in such a straightforward way.
The Foundation’s attack may seem ferocious, but the law of ‘no harm comes from smoke’ applies in every world.
When a Puppet Master's 'sacrifice' Foundation soldier charged himself, the psychic impact released was even more powerful, and a shock wave rushed out from the explosion's firelight in a radial form. After sweeping across the Foundation's armed units, they demonstrated what it means to "turn their backs on their backs".
The Puppet Master knew that there was no need to fight now, because the psychic strength levels of the two sides were not at the same level at all. Even if he 'sacrifice' all the Foundation soldiers around him, he would only be able to deal with a few waves.
When the reserved spiritual energy is exhausted, nothing can stop the creature in front of me that is suspected of being a 'forerunner'.
In this case, the puppet master thought of the 'Foundation Execution Guidelines' that were engraved in his mind like a soul imprint.
"Everyone, hold back this unknown creature! The victim, prepare to mechanically detonate!"
After his order was given, Amber saw that the door to the dormant area was forcibly opened. A HCP with a familiar appearance that even gave Amber PTSD rushed in.
When the HCP with the foundation's logo opened the tactical nuclear bomb launch box on its back, Amber was completely overwhelmed.
“No, can you please stop using nuclear explosions at every turn!”
Although I don’t know how this tactical nuclear strike Steppenwolf produced by the Federation was acquired by the Quest for Truth Foundation Got it, but Amber obviously couldn't care less about it now.
Although he is very happy to see the truth-seeking foundation fighting against suspected forerunner targets, this does not mean that he is willing to eat nuclear bombs together.
A small charged particle cannon mounted on the rear of the power armor quickly completed assembly, and at the same time Amber "emerged from the shadows", it aimed at the tactical nuclear strike HCP.
The next second, the purple charged particle beam directly hit the link between the tactical nuclear bomb launch box and the HCP.
