Starting From Zero

Chapter 81 The Fourth Special Zone

Shadow Spring laughed. "Don't worry, I'm an assassin. You, an animal trainer, can lead everyone in a sneak attack. Will I still be exposed as an assassin?"

"I feel relieved when you say that. Okay, I'll log off now. See you when I come back." I said, turning the teleportation ring to teleport myself to Essinger, and found the rose at the lookout at the top of Essinger. , she was also explaining things to Ying. After she finished explaining, we logged off together.

As soon as I took off my helmet, I received an internal call from my father, saying he was taking us somewhere and asked me to take Scot and the others with me. Rose and I arrived at the restaurant first. This is the place where Scott is most likely to appear in the entire base. When we got there, these guys were already eating. They were so slanderous!

I stood behind them and clapped my hands to attract their attention. "Okay, now listen to me. We are leaving soon, and everyone must follow me. I will give you five minutes to wipe out everything in front of you." After I finished speaking, I found that they were still stunned. Looking at me, he quickly urged: "Why are you still standing there? Hurry up!"

Only then did Scott and the others react and eat quickly. The adjustment during this period of time consumes a lot of energy in the body. The nutrients injected through the blood alone can indeed replenish the body's needs, but the hunger comes from the stomach. Secretion, even if the body does not need more nutrients, as long as the concentration of special hormones in the stomach does not decrease, you will always feel hungry.

The way these guys eat is really scary. Even the beauties are stuffing food into their mouths without any regard for their image. If this were in a pastry shop facing the street, they would definitely scare the passers-by. However, this group of slanderous cats did not look good, but they were very fast, and they were all finished in five minutes.

I led them to the upper level of the base and followed my father's request to the airport on the mountain behind the base to stand by. Dad is already standing at the airport. But he was talking to the two generals. The two generals entered a small plane with their adjutants and waved goodbye to their father. After Dad stepped away, the plane slid onto the runway in the night and began to accelerate to take off, and disappeared into the night sky after a while.

Dad watched the plane fly away before taking the airport commuter bus to our side. "Follow me." Dad said and ordered the driver to drive to the hangar on the other side.

The airport affiliated to Longyuan Base is a dedicated airport. There are no buses like those used in large airports to transport passengers to the plane. The commuter buses here are similar to golf carts. Even the driver can take up to six people. Personally, we are clearly outnumbered. Dad and the driver occupied two seats, and the remaining seats were assigned to Rose, Ling, Xiaochun and Amynis. Their physiques are the worst among our 30 evolved humans. Everyone else followed the car and ran forward.

It was at least three thousand meters from the elevator entrance where we came out to the hangar, so we trotted along following the commuter bus. This distance is not a problem for an ordinary soldier who has received intensive training, let alone the likes of us. I jogged all the way here, and even my breathing rate didn’t change much.

There is a large transport aircraft parked in the hangar. One look at it and you can tell that Dad is carrying forward the virtue of diligence and frugality again. Every time I go to other bases, I always take a free ride, and rarely send a special plane! This time it was even more outrageous, it actually squeezed the cargo plane. A large group of people were rushed to the plane like a duck by their father, only to find that it was full of cargo. There was a small space and some simple seats left for us at the front of the cabin. Everyone started taxiing as soon as they got off the plane. It seems that I am in a hurry.

"Dad, where are we going?" I couldn't help but ask after the plane took off.

Dad did not answer immediately, but asked me: "What do you think of Long Yuan's technical level?"

"Of course it is world-class." I said proudly.

Rose was more attentive, and after seeing that her father had no reaction to my answer, she immediately said: "But our Long Yuan technology seems to be a bit too advanced, at least the gap is too big compared to the technology that the current society can understand. Sometimes I am very confused. As a technical reserve, does Long Yuan retain too much?"

As expected, Rose is still smarter than me. Dad immediately laughed after hearing her words. "It's great that you can discover this. I have mentioned to you before the outer space planet that is about to threaten the survival of mankind. I said at that time that our countermeasure is large-scale immigration. However, as you understand Dragon The senior personnel of Yuan Core Technology should be very clear that the current human technology still lacks a lot of things to achieve space immigration."

Rose nodded. "That's true. Long Yuan should be able to simply remove a large number of humans from the earth, but to send these people to the distant universe, this task is probably not enough to be completed with our technology. I was I’m very curious, the immigration plan of Long Yuan must be authorized by the state, but Long Yuan’s technology cannot cope with such a large amount of immigrants. Does the country intend to abandon the common people and only transfer elite humans?”

"It is inevitable to abandon some people." Dad said something that would definitely cause great turmoil if outsiders heard it. But he went on to explain: "But it's not as serious as you think. We really can't transfer everyone, but it's not as pitiful as transferring only some elites."

"Then what are the plans of the country and Longyuan?"

Dad thought for a while and said: "The first plan of the immigration plan is to cut off the head and tail. People over eighty years old will give up. These people are not physically fit and will be killed by long-term cryogenic sleep in the dormant cabin. The fate of the earth. Instead of dragging their corpses to the target planet, it is better to give up the precious spots to young people. The second one is the infant and toddler part."

Xiaochun, who was sitting next to us and had been listening to us, shouted in surprise: "What? You want to give up the baby? Isn't it too cruel?"

Dad immediately explained with a smile: "Don't get it wrong. We are not butchers. The plan is like this. First, we will carry out a universal birth control plan seven years in advance before the immigration begins. Within a week after the start date, all pregnant women will be banned. Women register with the public security department, and these pregnant women can still arrange for the birth of their children. However, women who become pregnant after that must have forced abortions. This ensures that the youngest children in the country will be there when immigration begins. Over six years old. Such children can already withstand cryogenic sleep and can be safely sent to their destination. Children below this age will even enter the immigration program. They will only be corpses when they are sent to the destination. According to this standard, remove the front and back Two groups of people can reduce immigration standards.”

Xiaochun nodded: "This is much more humane."

Dad smiled and said: "You little girl, don't think of us as evil demons. I know you are the goddess of light in the game, but our world is not a game world. Don't make it so clear between good and evil. , People in reality are more hypocritical than your people, good and evil are not so obvious, and you cannot subjectively judge whether a person is a good person or a bad person."

Xiaochun stuck out her tongue playfully. These people are considered Long Yuan's children, or their father's children. Naturally, they don't need to take themselves too seriously when spending time with their families.

Dad continued: "In addition to cutting off the head and tail just mentioned, we also have some cuts. The first is to check the body. Patients with serious diseases that are unlikely to recover in a short time cannot participate in immigration and can only go together. Give up. This group of people cannot be saved at all, so they can only choose to give up rationally. Second. Those who are diagnosed with terminal diseases and have less than ten years to live will give up. It makes little sense for such people to immigrate. Third, carrying similar People with deadly contagious and incurable viruses such as Samid type 2 simply give up. The new world cannot be infected by the virus, otherwise the entire immigration plan will fail. Billions of people will be buried with them. This is unacceptable Things that are allowed. Fourth, people with severe mental retardation should give up directly. This section includes patients with extremely severe mental illness, extreme mental retardation or abnormal thinking. These people cannot adapt to the space environment and may develop violent tendencies after entering space. We don’t want to release a group of mutant beasts in space after arriving in the new world. However, we will not abandon people with general mental retardation and other safety disabilities. Our abandonment principle is not to affect the safety of most people. Consider it. As long as it does not endanger the safety of most people and it can adapt to space travel, we generally will not abandon it."

"Is this all?" I asked.

Dad said: "Not completely. There are still some criminals. Of course, the death row prisoners are directly shot, and those sentenced to various prison terms will be sorted in reverse order according to the severity of their crimes. If the immigration ship has enough by then, they will be taken away If there are not enough people, we will abandon them starting with the more serious crimes until the immigration ship can accommodate these people. If the construction speed of the immigration ship cannot keep up, even those criminals who commit petty theft may be abandoned directly. "

"What if the immigration ship isn't enough?" Rose asked.

Dad said with some embarrassment: "Preliminary calculations are enough. Even the criminals can be taken away. But if there is an accident and the number of immigration ships is still insufficient, then we have to choose among the crowd according to the individual's contribution to society. , and the person's moral level, education level, and intellectual development level are deleted and screened out in order. If something like that really happens, there is nothing we can do. After all, the immigration ship is just enough now. But when the time comes, we will One hundred thousand seats have been reserved for special elites abroad. As long as these people are willing to serve our country, we can bring them with us. These are technical elites. Losing them is a loss for humanity."

"Then other countries don't have immigration ships?" Ling asked.

Ling didn't know about the last conversation we had with dad, so he didn't understand the situation. I explained to her: "Only a few powerful countries will build immigration ships. Those small countries don't even have the technology to launch satellites. Even if they know about this human catastrophe, they have no way to build immigration ships. In case they make a desperate attack If you want to seize the immigration ship, it will definitely cause unnecessary trouble. Therefore, several big countries that know the situation have reached an agreement, that is, not to tell them about this catastrophe. On the one hand, it will reduce accidents, and on the other hand, it will also cause more trouble. They spent their last days in peace without knowing anything about it.”

Dad also added: "In the end, only about one-third of the people on Earth can be rescued, which should be considered the best result."

I said to my father: "After talking a lot, you still haven't told us where you want to take us!"

Dad laughed and asked again. "You know that there is District 51 in the United States, but do you know about our Fourth District?"

"Section 4?"

Dad said mysteriously: "There is an internal saying that the center of the South China Sea is our fourth special administrative region. In fact, our goal this time is there."

"South China Sea?"

Dad looked at his watch. "We'll be there in about half an hour. This plane is very fast, so there's no need to worry."

"I'm not in a hurry. I just want to know why there is a special zone in the South China Sea."

Dad corrected my mistakes. "Not the South China Sea, but under the South China Sea. The Fourth Special Zone we are going to is on the bottom of the sea. The target of your upcoming mission is not too far from our Fourth Special Zone."

"Why build two bases so close? Isn't this dangerous?"

Dad shook his head: "Danger is out of the question. The Japanese don't have as many submarines as we do, so they don't dare to invade our country's territorial waters. As for why we built them so close to each other, we are actually quite helpless. Anyway, we'll tell you when we get there. Your details."

No matter how I asked along the way, my dad just refused to tell me, deliberately trying to offend me. Soon the plane approached the target area and the landing indicator light came on. We were reminded to fasten our seat belts, but through the porthole I saw only darkness on the sea, with no place to land at all. Just when I was randomly looking for the target, a red bright spot suddenly lit up on the sea, and the plane immediately began to turn. The bright spot that was originally on the side was moved to the front of the plane, and I can't see it here. In a hurry, I simply unbuckled my seat belt and ran forward to open the cockpit door, but I was stunned. The cockpit was actually empty, with no one in it. The aircraft control stick is moving on its own. The plane flew towards the red dot in an orderly manner.

"Unmanned aerial vehicle?" I turned back and asked my dad.

Dad nodded. "The current performance of this system is not complete. It can only be used for passenger and cargo transportation. Complex tasks are not yet available."

I nodded. Since the front is completely empty and the view is so good, it is better than sitting in the back. I ran directly to the driver's seat and sat down. Anyway, the plane is under automatic control, so even if I just sit there and pretend, it won’t affect the flight. Rose also got in and sat in the passenger seat. The view here was indeed better than from the back, and the seat was much more comfortable.

The red bright spot ahead was gradually targeted by the aircraft. Then a green display area on the front observation window of the aircraft jumped to red. All Long Yuan's military aircraft have two sets of instruments, one is a pointer type, embedded directly on the operating table, and the other is a liquid crystal type, displayed directly on the front windshield.

Suddenly there was a rustling sound in the cockpit, and then a male voice appeared. "This is Welcome Car No. 1. The electronic code has been confirmed. Please ask the pilot to open the serial code on the bridge and read it out."

"Streaming coding?" I was stunned for a moment.

Dad's voice soon came from behind. "Don't worry about him. This is a secret code to deceive people. In order to prevent other countries' aircraft from being able to disguise themselves as our aircraft and fly into the warning area after deciphering our machine code, a process of asking for the password was specially set up. The drones that come here don't know how to answer this question. If you answer it, it must be a spy plane."

"Damn, it's so shady. If any spy is recruited, he will definitely die without knowing how he was exposed."

Just as he was speaking, the voice suddenly continued: "Very good, the serial number is confirmed. Welcome car No. 1 welcomes everyone." As soon as the voice ended. The red dot in front suddenly extended a row of red dots to both sides, turning into a red line across the front of us. A large area of ​​lights suddenly opened on both sides of the red line. A wide runway was illuminated. Now it can be seen that the runway is not built on some island. Under the runway is a strange and huge floating object. It looks very strange in shape and is definitely not an aircraft carrier.

Our plane descended quickly, landing on the runway guided by electronic systems with greater precision than the pilot could. An arresting lock successfully caught the tailhook of the aircraft, and we only taxied for more than a hundred meters before being pulled to a stop. The blocking lock was automatically released, and the aircraft slowly taxied to the edge of the deck. Then we felt an obvious shaking, the ground began to fall, and we should have stopped on the elevator.

Soon we were lowered into the warehouse below the deck, and the lights that had just indicated the runway were all turned off. The sea became pitch black again. The cabin we entered was different from the one above. It was really brightly lit. After the plane parked here, it immediately opened the door and shut down automatically. A group of people outside ran over and started unloading the cargo.

We got off the plane, and my dad saw that I was a little confused. "This is not the Fourth Special Zone we landed in. This is just Welcome Car No. 1. It is a floating airport that can dive. Its own mobility is very poor, and the maximum diving depth is 150 meters. Its main task is to be responsible for landing when the plane arrives. Go up to receive it when you arrive. So call the welcome car."

I nodded. After working on it for a long time, it turned out to be an airport, but it was only capable of diving. Dad took us to a row of elevator entrances on the side, which are elevators for people. Take the elevator down to the ground floor of the diving airport. There is a large dock here. The ground is like a vegetable patch. There are pools one after another. There is a submarine in each pool, and the total is more than a hundred. There are many sliding rail cranes on the roof transporting goods back and forth. It seems that these submarines are cargo submarines.

Dad took us all the way forward, and no one came to ask us on the road. All facilities in Longyuan are equipped with electronic detectors, and people without neural implants will be discovered within a second of entering the place. Don't think that Longyuan doesn't have guards, it's just that they don't patrol outside.

Dad finally stopped in front of a pool, where there were several small yellow submarines. There are many of us. Two submarines were used. There are also no operators in the submarine, and the control systems are all automatic. The submarine slowly sank underwater, and then a gate on the top closed the pool, and then the gate below opened. Our submarine quickly left the dive airfield from below. The small submarine didn't even turn on the lights in the dark sea, so we saw darkness all the way. Twenty minutes later, the lights in front of the submarine suddenly turned on. It was only then that we discovered that the submarine had entered an underwater tunnel at some point. There is no road ahead, and the submarine's light shines on a rock wall.

At this moment, the rock wall suddenly moved with a loud clang. The tone of the sound becomes strange when it propagates underwater, but you can still hear that it is a mechanical sound. The seemingly natural rock wall moved sideways and gradually entered the tunnel wall. Behind this rock is a brightly lit metal passage. After our two submarines entered, the gate behind it was closed again.

The metal channel is not very long. Soon another gate opened. After passing through this gate, the submarine only advanced a few dozen meters and then began to surface. Soon we surfaced. There is another dock here, probably this is the real Fourth Special Zone.

After the submarine surfaced, it docked at the edge of the floating trestle, and we all climbed out of the submarine. There are already several people waiting for us here, half of them are wearing military uniforms, and the other half are wearing overalls with the Dragon Fate logo.

Dad walked in the front. As soon as he arrived on the shore, a major general at the front of the greeting team reached out and shook his hand. "Is the journey going well?"

"Not bad." Dad smiled, shook hands with him, and then turned to the middle-aged man wearing Long Yuan overalls next to him. "What new gains have you made recently?"

"Not much new gains. Mainly opening up a new cabin. Computer-wise. We got a strange set of codes that the data engineers are analyzing."

The major general looked past Dad and cast his gaze on us. "Is this the eldest son?"

Dad smiled and nodded. "Although Shenlin is not my biological son, he is much less worried than ordinary children. He has been very obedient since he was a child, and he is obviously much smarter and more sensible than other children of the same age."

The major general kept nodding his head, his eyes looking up and down on me: "Perfect, really perfect. I heard that the personal combat effectiveness has surpassed the soldiers trained by our elite soldier plan, right?"

Dad didn't answer, but pointed at a box stacked next to us. "Shenlin, try opening it with your bare hands."

I nodded and walked to the box, knocking it lightly first. Tongsheng seems to be made of alloy material, so it shouldn't be very strong. I put the fingers of my right hand together to form a hand knife, and then thrust it into the box. There was a distinct sound of metal twisting, and my whole hand entered the box. Grasp the rolled metal edges left and right, and remove the entire cover on the side of the box like a banana peel.

The major general stood nearby, obviously stimulated. After a long time, he said with a complicated expression: "Oh! I really don't know why we soldiers train all day long. Even if we are all exhausted on the training ground, we will probably He is no longer a match for them.”

An obviously muscular major behind the major general said unconvinced: "How can our vanguard troops be inferior to a group of children? Maybe we can't do it in terms of muscle strength, but as long as we are in the jungle or the city, based on our experience, we can definitely easily defeat them." Fighting depends not only on strength, otherwise Hercules would be a fighting hero."

The major general shook his head. "You won't understand if you haven't seen their test data."

"Is it very strong?" the major asked with some disdain.

The major general nodded. "The maximum lift of both arms is 31 tons, the extension force of one leg is 31.5 tons, and the average grip strength of the palm is 15.6 tons. The long-range vision is equivalent to the effect of using a three-fold telescope, and the ability to distinguish smiling objects is equal to yours. The effect of using a six-fold magnifying glass. Its low-light environment strength surpasses that of an owl, and it has infrared light visibility."

"What? Infrared light visible?"

The major general nodded helplessly again. "Normal human eyes do not respond to light in this band. Only a few animals have this ability, but they also have it. Their eyes are better than night vision devices when fighting at night. In addition, in terms of hearing, the sound range is much higher. Compared to normal humans, it can hear secondary and ultrasonic bands, and its normal range sound resolution is twenty times that of ours, which is equivalent to a mobile eavesdropper. Its skin sensitivity is four hundred times higher than ours. It can feel ground vibrations and various explosions. The direction and distance of the impact, you can even feel the wind direction and speed directly through your skin. Your sense of smell is close to that of dogs, and common smells can be distinguished. In front of such an enemy, your jungle camouflage and hiding abilities are of no use. They rely solely on the sound of their heartbeats. They can find you, or a drop of your sweat can let them smell you from a hundred meters away."

I interrupted the general with a smile and added: "You have said a little less. We have an unusually sensitive ability to receive radio waves. The weak brain waves generated by your changes in thinking can allow us to determine your precise location several kilometers away." , and know your general emotional tendencies. For example, I now know that your emotion is panic. Also, our intelligence level is also beyond that of normal people. According to my new psychological aids, I can judge that you are probably listening to To say that we are strong is to panic because we are afraid that our existence is meaningless. In fact, you don’t have to worry about this at all. You have also seen that we only have a small number of people, and a few people are not enough to fight a war. No matter how powerful the special soldiers are , we still need soldiers to be the main force."

The general suddenly said to me: "Aren't you afraid of revealing secrets when you say this? How do you know that we are qualified to have access to these secrets?"

"According to national confidentiality regulations, you have the authority to know this secret just because you are working in a base of this level. In addition, my radio wave induction is not only able to find the location of the enemy. I can read it when the distance is close enough. What is the other party thinking? For example, you were just thinking about how to tease us enhanced people who don’t know the heights of the world, and now you are thinking about why I know everything.”

The general was completely dumbfounded now, because I told him exactly what he was thinking. I was actually in a state of excitement too. Before entering the incubator, we were told that this time we would universalize our special abilities, that is, let us have the same abilities. The ability to interpret thoughts just now should have been Ling Di's specialty, but now I can use it too. In addition, I can receive radio signals just like Xiaochun, but I have not memorized the code interpretation. So I receive a signal but don’t know what it is. It is particularly worth mentioning. This adjustment has been improved based on the opinions put forward by Xiaochun and others, that is, we can now turn off these feelings. For example, although we can receive radio. As long as we don't want to listen, we can let this aspect of our abilities disappear temporarily. This was originally because Xiaochun complained that the radio was always being received and the noise made her dizzy, so the ability to turn off was added so that the corresponding ability could not be turned on when not in use.

Dad came out and caressed the injured major and general. Their wounds were in his heart. For a soldier who has trained hard for many years to suddenly find that he is much worse than others, this is a big blow. Fortunately, they are all officers now, and they are basically in charge of security and other work, and no longer pay much attention to their own abilities, otherwise they will definitely die in pain.

With Dad's help, the atmosphere quickly recovered. We followed the general and the middle-aged man wearing Long Yuan overalls into the elevator behind the pier. This elevator is not like ordinary elevators. It has no surrounding walls, only a large floor and a circle of railings. Moreover, it is not suspended by steel cables, but moves up and down along the metal frame by a gear set fixed on the wall. of. At first we descended along the elevator shaft. The elevator shaft was dark and the light was very dim. After descending for a while, we suddenly left the elevator shaft, and the surroundings suddenly became brighter. We entered a huge underground space. Only one side of the elevator was against the wall of the cave and continued to descend along the track. The other three sides were all empty space. However, when our eyes moved to the center of the huge space, all thirty of us first-time guests were dumbfounded.
