Chapter 562 Susan

Of course, there should be some changes in terms of combat effectiveness. After all, their cost is 100 crystals and 50 gas, and they are ground units. It is absolutely impossible for them to have higher attack power than units such as colossi and golden beetles like in the game. That's twice the power of the Baneling.

But this does not mean that the battlefield positioning of the self-destroying man and the baneling is repeated. The game is different from the reality. The game unit has no thoughts and does not understand fear. In reality, human beings have all five senses and have their own emotions. The difference lies in the different deterrent effects.

Seeing a big bug that can spray acid water, and seeing a suicide bomber infected with a hideous appearance are two completely different concepts. Anyway, just thinking about it on him feels horrible, yes The impact on the visual and spiritual levels far surpasses units like Banelings and Explosive Mosquitoes.

If self-exploding people are used, plus infected spearmen released by infected bugs, combined with the "spawn" of queen bugs and the "plague" of scorpions (polluters) on the hostile army, it can be imagined that it will have a negative impact on morale. With such a blow, those who are not determined will be scared to pee in their pants, or even frightened to death.

"The Plague Fear Striking Team is about to take shape, and only the 'Scorpion' remains to be unlocked."

At this moment, Emma, ​​who had been silent for a long time, interrupted his thinking and gave a bad news: "Commander, after screening, there is indeed no relevant information in the database of the central unit. According to trace analysis, it has been permanently deleted and cannot be executed. Resume operation."

"Is that so..." He frowned, a little helpless and a little irritable.

But when you think about it, Harrington Harris is right. Few people will keep those things. Although there are times of discord and filth between countries, integrity is also an indispensable thing. Unless the cost of breaking the rules is less than the profit, no one will rashly break the rules. Especially in politics and diplomacy.

"Since you don't have it, forget it... Remember to pay attention to useful information, such as the content of the past communications between the Duke and the Sulu Empire, as well as the content of the strategic layout of the border."

"Commander, all the useful content has been transferred to the database of the star track command center, and the content will be sorted out in the next time."

Tang Fang agreed and said no more. Turn your attention back to the present moment, and walk down the steps with a sullen face.

Harrington Harris was not surprised by this. He glanced at Edison's gradually icy body and said calmly, "Before you do anything, I want to ask two questions."

He didn't wait for Tang Fang's response, and directly stated the content: "One. Are those golden units Ipsi dragons? Two, how did you cut off the energy supply of the central unit's weapon system?"

The fighting on the big screen has stopped,

The flying units of the Evil Night Legion were almost wiped out, and only some small unmanned forts survived because they were controlled by Emma.

In the distance, the flames from the explosion at the port of "Rodnis" illuminated the void on one side, and even "Mubarak" couldn't cover up the last flash of light.

"Rhodnia" cannot see the details due to the terrain. Only Tang Fang knew that the landing force composed of biological battleships, queens, and infected people would have occupied the central control room, and the defenders were fleeing. Damn it, the person in charge was a little late in responding and failed to detonate the energy core of the space station.

Tang Fang looked at the high-altitude track that looked like a garbage dump. Seeing the large and small wreckage falling from the sky, burning into streams of flames in the atmosphere of "Arumaika", thinking that this battle has finally come to an end.

After a long time, he said a word: "No."

Harrington thought about it, and decided that was his answer to the first question, which sounded like "handout." But coupled with his back, and a calm face. Let people not feel the slightest resentment, because he does not have the idea of ​​ridicule or ridicule. Just seeing the tragic image on the big screen, he was slightly absent-minded.

In fact, the second issue is what Harrington really cares about. No matter how he thinks about it, he can't understand why the energy supply will be cut off silently after the central unit of the general's mansion closes the access.

Indeed, those invisible agents can approach the energy system silently, and with their combat power, it will be very easy to deal with the guards of the General's Mansion, but... the premise is that they can come in.

The exterior walls of the central unit are intact, the security system has not been compromised, and there have been no internal casualties. However, when the opponent's army approached the city and was directly exposed to the best attack range of the powerful weapon system of the central unit, this fortress made up of several special-type ships lost its energy supply and fell into a semi-paralyzed state.

He couldn't figure out why, what link went wrong?

Tang Fang turned his face to look at him, and said calmly, "Do you still remember those people you robbed from 'Dilal'?"

Harrington rang Medelev, remembered those researchers, remembered their place of detention, and remembered the ghost-like soldiers just now, and then he understood...it turns out that Captain Tang had already inserted a fatal nail into the Inside "Mubarak", wait until the critical moment to cooperate with the outside and subvert the central unit in one fell swoop.

Looking at the young man on the opposite side, he felt a chill in his heart. If he made such a plan early in the morning, wouldn't it mean that the attack on "Dilar" had already been expected by him? Deliberately hide those ghost agents in the "Christian" industrial park, sneak into the landing craft while the landing forces are arresting researchers and collecting drug samples, and mix into "Arumega".

Combined with Stephen Su and Chen Jian who led the fleet away from "Dilal" without authorization, the "Morning Star" went to Jakarta to conduct a meaningless inspection of the Bur star system... Various signs indicate that all of this is probably caused by Tang. The captain did it deliberately, deliberately creating a passive situation.

Only the weak will be sympathized with, and only the strong who grew up from the weak will be respected, understood, and supported by people.

The young man in front of him used various forces to trick "Morning Star Casting" and turned his head to trick everyone.

The Star Alliance, the Pirates, and the Night's Legion... are all pawns in his hands.

This is neither a conspiracy nor a conspiracy, but a silent and invisible counterattack.

If Captain Tang hadn't revealed this information, he would have been unable to understand these things, thinking that he was here for revenge. It's for Liwei...

He suddenly felt that he was pathetic, those in the Star Alliance were also pathetic, and the Pirate Alliance.

Not to mention being taken advantage of by others, they celebrated with joy and joy, waiting for changes in the social and political situation in the future. When they feel something is wrong, I am afraid that Captain Tang has already made a lot of money. I don't know how they will feel at that time?

Harrington said with a wry smile: "Since your agents have sneaked into the 'central unit', why don't you just kill me? I believe they can do it with their skills. Don't you want to make an example to others? Wouldn't it be more frightening to infiltrate behind enemy lines with two prongs?"

Tang Fang said, "I'm used to keeping a low profile."

"..."

Harrington was silent for a moment. "It's not about being low-key," he said.

He thought of an answer, if the world knows that "Morning Star Forge" has such a powerful spy force, I am afraid that the political leaders of any hostile country will panic, and those old foxes of the Star Alliance will naturally be no exception. Invisibly, many enemies will be established.

The so-called spies are ghosts that roam the world. They are only scary if they hide in the dark. Once exposed to the eyes of the world, the effect will be greatly reduced.

What a low-key, this kid just wants to continue to hide their existence, so that they can be used to make a fool of themselves in the future.

"My question is over, you can do it now." Harrington glanced at Susan's back beside him. Said: "She is a woman, or a mute, will not pose a threat to you."

He didn't plead for Susan like the bloody plot in some novels. It's just stating a fact that the choice is in Tang Fang's hands... In fact, he can more or less see that Captain Tang is not a bloodthirsty person, especially when facing unarmed and vulnerable groups, not to mention she is still A pitiful weak woman.

If Tang Fang chooses to let Susan live. He will be happy and relieved. If Tang Fang doesn't do this. He doesn't resent, he doesn't get angry. Not being born in the same year, the same month, the same day, but being able to die in the same year, the same month, and the same day is not bad. Living in the same bed and dying in the same bed may not be a good destination.

Things have come to this point, the country, status, wealth, prestige and so on have little meaning, to be able to watch the woman he loves live, or go to hell together, is what he cares most about.

He's not Edison, he's Harrington.

He is not pedantic, nor does he have so many principles, and he does not pursue the seemingly heroic honor of being a soldier in life and a martyr in death.

It doesn't have to be what one wants to be called a soldier, but what a person wants to become a soldier.

If you want to be a qualified soldier, you must first be a qualified person.

He couldn't refute the patriotic and military-style education of the empire. In fact, he knew the absurdity of the lies better than anyone else.

It's like he never advertises himself as a soldier, but prefers to be a general. Because the two words "soldier" are too heavy, as for "general", it is enough to be able to lead troops and know how to fight.

In his eyes, the so-called "soldiers" of the Mongya Empire, the Phoenix Empire, the Sauron Empire, including his own motherland, are just a tool, a profession, nothing more.

A soldier like Edison is just a pseudo-soldier in his eyes. Of course, he will not correct or give advice, because the empire needs such people, because people have the right to choose their own path.

In fact, living in a lie is not a bad thing, at least it will be very "happy", such as Edison? Their lives are meaningful.

He is a duke, and he is also a smart person. He not only understands politics and military affairs, but also understands society, life, and thinking. The real power holders are actually far wiser and more capable than ordinary people.

Tang Fang glanced at Susan's back. Under the dimming light of the big screen, it looked so weak and thin.

Harrington is a sympathetic person, and he can't do anything to a woman who can't threaten him, so it's better to let her go.

He knew that some situations had to be ruthlessly eradicated to prevent future troubles, but a childless person like Harrington didn't have to do that.

Just as he was thinking about the problem, Susan walked towards the door without looking back or looking at Harrington. This seemed a bit heartless, and it reminded people of a sentence, "Husband and wife are like birds in the same forest, and when disaster comes, they fly separately." .

Tang Lin in front raised his head and gave him a questioning look.

Tang Fang shook his head. Signaled to let her go.

Susan walked further and further away, and her back slowly disappeared around the corner of the corridor. Her footsteps are neither brisk nor heavy, and there has been no change from the beginning to the end, just like she can't speak, always so quiet.

Half a minute passed. He withdrew his gaze from the end of the corridor, and suddenly realized one thing. Susan and Claire were different. Although their temperaments were somewhat similar, Susan was indifferent in character, while Claire was more gentle.

Susan is like a stream. Light and cold, trickling eastward.

Claire is like a soft and intimate quilt, more practical and warmer.

He was very fortunate that the girl on the "Morning Star" was the latter. Rather than the former, if you switch identities with the Duke, you might feel disappointed and sad.

However, Harrington didn't show any negative emotions, just whispered: "Thank you." It looked more like an infatuated seed than an imperial prince.

Claire is not Susan, and Tang Fang is not Harrington. Naturally, he cannot understand what kind of emotional bond the two have had for so many years.

The friendship between gentlemen is as light as water. The relationship between Harrington and Susan is almost the same. Because she couldn't speak, she naturally didn't have a lot to talk about. There is a lot less communication, a lot less joy, and a lot less passion, only quiet and light.

Harrington liked it and was used to it, and so did Susan.

"Okay. It's time for you to start, and don't go on the road. Their blood is going cold,"

Tang Fang knew who "they" were referring to.

Piccolo Fred, Dupont Catalander, Edison King, Gandalf, Lin Siyuan...these people all died because of him. And the Ferrymen of the River Styx will not wait for others, money and status are useless there.

Tang Fang finally decided to give him a ride, because that was the Duke's choice, and it was also the best choice. People like Harrington Harris were more suitable to "live nobly and die gloriously".

It's not just generosity and righteousness, calmly going to death that are admirable, nor is loyalty and courage, sonorous and heroic.

After taking the gun from Tang Lin and feeling the cold shell, Tang Fang decided to do it himself and send him on the road.

Just when the muzzle of the gun had reached Harrington's heart, there was a sound of footsteps approaching from far away, and Susan's figure appeared at the door again, her eyes fell on the "Silver Knight", and she felt emotional for the first time .

It's complicated but not angry, it's ambiguous but not anxious.

She moved her thin lips, raised a pda, and said, "here is what you want."

The screen saver of pda is a pink tulip, delicate and elegant, gently swaying in the wind.

That stands for "eternal love".

But... no one cared how beautiful that flower was, and no one cared what its flower language was, because Susan... she spoke.

Tang Fang and Tang Lin's performance was better, because they were not familiar with her, but they thought the voice was more pleasant, soft and sweet, like milky white cotton candy, not like a woman in her 30s, but like a woman in her thirties. A girl who just graduated from college,

They pay more attention to the things in her hands, the contents of that pda. As for whether she is dumb or not, that really doesn't matter.

Harrington Harris is not the case. He never thought that Susan would actually speak, just make a voice...not hoarse, not stuttering, it sounds like light rain rustling on the ground, such a "movement" It washed away her special "quietness". Although it sounds nice, it doesn't match her temperament well.

When was she able to speak? Obviously, he has not undergone any vocal cord restoration surgery, nor has he ever worn an auxiliary pronunciation device. Had she been hiding the fact that she could talk, pretending to be a quiet mute? Why? Is it because he is afraid that things will be revealed and will annoy him, is he at a loss, or is there some other unspeakable secret?

Ten years have been like a day, she could speak but insisted on pretending to be dumb, such perseverance, such forbearance, I really don't know how she persisted?

Harrington felt that he had been deceived by her so hard. In order to communicate with her, he even went to learn sign language... She can speak clearly, why did she deliberately hide it from him?

Deception is a sin. Many people will not forgive deception, especially those in power. They are used to deceiving the people at the bottom and playing with people's hearts, but they can never accept others to deceive them.

But for Susan, he couldn't be angry or resentful, he just felt that it was a pity that she concealed the things she could talk about.

If only I could be like a normal person...

He looked at her face, and his thoughts were interrupted.

If he could really be like an ordinary person, would he still like her so much? Isn't the most fascinating thing about Susan, the tranquility and serenity of the water and clouds?

As for beauty? As the Grand Duke of a country, how could he lack beautiful women by his side?

It turns out that those quietness, tranquility, and calmness are all her disguise, her mask, something used to confuse people.

He began to feel angry, and there was still a trace of resentment swimming in his heart, which was different from the pity and joy just now.

People's emotions are changeable. In many cases, the sky can be sunny one second, and the next one becomes cloudy.

Susan was also looking at him, watching the Duke's eyes change from soft to hard, from hard to cold, and his expression from surprise to doubt, from pity to silence, and finally into resentment, like an abstract painting drawn by a master .

She didn't explain, didn't even show a trace of guilt, only a hint of sadness hidden in her eyes, she couldn't tell whether it was for herself, for him, or the chaotic battlefields outside that were dyed with life and flesh and blood.

She thought, maybe this is the "Symphony of Destiny" that God wants, the Buddha's saying of all living beings. (to be continued)
