Chapter 32 My Legion

"Is this...is this magic?" Just as we thought, after the technology reaches a certain level, most people will regard it as magic rather than technology. As expected, Major General Wu still asked.

Han Wei scratched his head and said with a naive smile: "Actually, this is just a little trick."

"No, it's a rare idea!" It was Wei Na who spoke. "It is really rare to have such a strange idea of ​​using electroshock technology to forcibly block the movement of molecules."

"Eh? Can you tell?" Han Wei was greatly stimulated by this. Although he acted very modestly on the surface, after all, this was a skill he was proud of, and he would definitely feel a little proud in his heart. But for such a high-end technology to be seen through by others at a glance, the blow is certainly too great.

Wei Na didn't notice anything was wrong with him, but said directly: "We all have electromagnetic induction ability, there is nothing surprising about this."

Major General Wu asked with a question mark on his face: "You two, stop playing riddles. Who can explain to me how this is done?"

Wei Na nodded and said: "The principle is quite simple, but the implementation is very complicated. First you have to understand the nature of temperature. Many people think that temperature is an inherent property that cannot be analyzed just like inertia, mass and gravity. . However, in fact, temperature is not an inherent property. We all know that the objects around us are composed of small molecules, and these molecules are vibrating irregularly all the time. We don't care about this. It’s called the Brownian motion of molecules, it’s a junior high school course, everyone should know it.”

Everyone nodded to show their understanding. After all, it was a very simple thing.

Wei Na continued: "Although you know these simple things, you don't know that the strength of Brownian motion is actually the nature of temperature. Research data from Longyuan Technology Department shows that the human body does not have temperature sensing nerves at all, but people can You feel the temperature, so what is working? The answer is the tactile nerve. The so-called tactile nerves are pressure receptors, and they are actually much more sensitive than you think. Temperature is the vibration frequency of small molecules inside an object . Your baroreceptors feel this constant vibration, and they send signals back to the brain to form a temperature sensation. This is what temperature really is, and it represents the speed of molecular vibration."

"Then how can you freeze objects?" asked a colonel next to Major General Wu.

"It's very simple. Since the temperature is the vibration speed of these molecules, then we can completely understand the temperature as a kind of irregular kinetic energy. When the kinetic energy of the molecules disappears, the thermal energy does not exist. We artificial life forms have the ability to control electric fields. You can understand it as telekinesis. We can use our will to control objects to make them move, and of course we can also prevent them from moving. When I look at an object. For example, this one." Wei Na stretched out her hand and pinned it to the researcher The ballpoint pen on his chest flew over automatically. "Look now, I start to stop its molecular movement." Everyone saw a layer of white frost quickly hanging on the pen, and then everyone heard a crackling sound of being cracked by frost, but Wei Wei Na seemed to have no intention of stopping. The ballpoint pen has begun to emit white smoke and is cooling down further. Tens of seconds later, everyone suddenly heard a click, and the pen suddenly turned into a pile of ashes and fell down.

"You actually learned the ability to freeze?" Han Wei pointed at Wei Na in surprise.

Ling said naturally: "We can do it too. What's wrong? It's not that difficult!"

Compared to Han Wei, Major General Wu has no time to care about our learning speed. He's a military guy who only cares about the weaponization of our capabilities. When he saw that the ballpoint pen powder had obviously become very small, he squatted down and looked at it for a long time in surprise. If I hadn't pulled him, he would have almost touched it! Major General Wu stood up in surprise and asked in a trembling voice: "Miss, your name is Wei Na, right?"

Wei Na immediately gave a military salute. "You don't have to be so polite. My military rank is lieutenant colonel, and you are the superior."

Major General Wu quickly returned the military salute, and then said: "So what happened to you just now? Didn't you freeze it? Why did it burn to ashes in the end?"

"Fever? No, I don't."

"Then why did the ballpoint pen turn into powder? And it can be clearly seen that the combination of these powders is definitely not as big as the original ballpoint pen. As far as I know, the reduction in volume can only be caused by the loss of material due to combustion. Sorry, I am not a researcher. , many things are unclear.”

Wei Na explained: "These powders are indeed much smaller than the original ballpoint pens, but that is not caused by combustion, but by the agglomeration of these molecules."

"Cohesion?"

"I think you should know the three basic forms of matter, right?"

"Of course. Gaseous, 'liquid' and solid, the three basic forms are elementary science knowledge!"

"But one link has been deliberately missed in popular science. There is also a fourth state of matter - condensed state. When the temperature drops to absolute zero, the matter will enter the condensed state. In this state, the material molecules have no Brownian motion, and the internal molecular gaps will Collapse occurs. It causes the volume to shrink violently, which is why condensed matter is named. I just lowered the temperature of that pen to absolute zero, and then it condensed into a small ball of material. If you collect the ash, you will find In fact, the weight has not changed, but the size has become smaller.”

Major General Wu became even more excited when he heard this. "Can your ability freeze larger objects? For example, tanks and airplanes?"

Wei Na said in embarrassment: "Of course the whole tank won't work, but I don't need to freeze the whole thing, right? As long as a small section of the power wire enters the condensed state and automatically breaks, the tank will stop on its own. If necessary, I can even freeze it The fuse of the artillery shell freezes to pieces, so that the artillery shell will not explode even if it hits the target. As for the aircraft, it depends on the distance. I can't freeze things that I can't see. If I can see it, it's actually very simple. There is no need to have all the aircraft. Freeze, freeze the pipeline, what do you think will happen?”

Major General Wu has not yet answered. The colonel next to him took the lead and said excitedly: "The plane in flight suddenly found that the oil line was blocked, haha, it is really exciting to think about it! If our special operations team A had such personnel in the team, the last operation You don’t have to be chased all over the mountain by enemy helicopters!”

Wei Na said expressionlessly: "If it were me, I would not shoot down the plane. I would directly control its circuit. Just let the plane become our aerial firepower platform. Shooting it down directly would be too wasteful."

"Can you remotely control the enemy's combat equipment?"

"As long as it has an electrical system, it's fine. But there's nothing I can do about a purely mechanical structure like an ordinary cannon!"

Another colonel said: "Then you are invincible? The enemy can't do anything to you!"

"Absolutely!" I walked over and said, "Our electromagnetic power is a new form of power. Other countries have no corresponding protective measures yet. It's like we invented the rifle, but our opponents are still using big swords." Spear, they don't have tanks or body armor that can stop bullets, so they can only use guns to remove the hard top. Of course, they will suffer heavy losses. As long as they can build a magnetic energy protector, this problem can be solved. But if we use large magnetic energy weapons, They have to think of new ways. Weapons and protective weapons have grown up in this kind of competition, right?"

"That's right. So we should be one step ahead so that we can be invincible." Dad pointed toward the entrance. "We have so many old guys here today. In addition to introducing you to Han Wei and Major General Wu, we also have your new subordinates."

"New subordinate?" I looked at my father in confusion, not knowing what he meant.

Dad called to the door: "Come in."

Suddenly, there was the sound of neat steps outside the gate. The unified steps showed that this was a well-trained team. An ordinary motley army would not have such discipline. soon. The leading part of the team appeared at the gate, and they ran into the weapons testing area in a very orderly manner.

The queue was very long and it took a long time to get in. There was no need to form a team, they automatically formed a square formation of one hundred teams and one hundred columns. A total of 10,000 people, this is already a large regular army. If it weren't for the huge size of the weapons experiment area. It’s hard to stand with so many people!

I glanced at the entire team. If it weren't for their military uniforms and neat formation, most of them would probably have mistaken this team for a male model team. All 10,000 people are uniformly 1.75 meters tall. And no one is crooked or bad, they all have handsome faces and heroic figures. I know there are many Chinese people, but it is impossible to single out such a team. Coupled with the unique smell emanating from their bodies, I can only come to one conclusion - these are all cyborgs.

When I went offline last time, my dad said he would support me, but this time so many cyborgs appeared. Dad's meaning is self-evident, he just wants to create a fait accompli and use force to deter those conservatives. Once our team grows, the fence-sitters will quickly switch to our side. This will increase pressure on conservatives. Moreover, if our strength is strong enough, even if they insist on dealing with us, they will definitely be wary of our strength and take conservative measures and will not advance rashly. This buys us time. Once our regular army forms a fighting force, it will not be so easy for them to do anything else.

Major General Wu didn't seem to know that there was such a troop, and his face was full of surprise. "Mr. Shen, is this...?"

"The newly formed troops directly under the control of Longyuan Biochemical Personnel. All the establishments are here. Except for them, my son and these people are all in the establishment."

Major General Wu asked in surprise: "An army composed entirely of biochemicals? Doesn't a force of 10,000 people require an infantry division?"

"No, no, no." Dad shook his head and said, "This is a fully biological army group, not a division."

"Army group? Just ten thousand people?" the colonel next to Major General Wu asked almost in a mocking voice.

Dad snapped his fingers to the army over there: "The first row is lined up. Let them see how those big guys are used." After that, Dad said to me: "These will be your team from now on, you Also learn a little bit, you all need to learn how to use these things.”

I smiled and said, "I already learned how to use that big ball before you guys came here, and the effect is really good."

Dad nodded and said nothing more.

The soldiers in front jumped on the giant beasts nearby, and the big guys immediately started to move. A gate opened opposite the experimental battlefield, and a large number of mechanized troops came out. Dad suggested going up to watch. It was not safe down below, so we all moved to the second floor platform to watch.

The mechanized troops on the opposite side of the battlefield are all the latest equipment of the US military as the imaginary enemy, and their actual combat effectiveness is higher than that of the active US military. Because these cutting-edge equipment have not yet been popularized in the US military. Dad assured Major General Wu that all mechanized troops used live ammunition. Of course, they were all remote-controlled, because the combat effectiveness of the biochemical troops was not weak at all.

The experimental battlefield was chosen as a hilly terrain with a large number of trees and shrubs. The biochemical army only dispatched one large biochemical beast of each type and a few soldiers on foot, while the mechanized army over there was a fully manned mechanized division, with not only a large number of tanks, but also helicopters.

The armies on both sides quickly approached, and the division's self-propelled artillery regiment on the imaginary enemy side opened fire first. Longyuan's weapons expert explained: "These are the latest 155mm self-propelled howitzers of the US military. The missiles fired are Krait III cluster artillery shells, which can easily penetrate the top armor of our army's active main battle tanks."

Upon hearing this, Major General Wu immediately looked carefully at the situation on the biochemical force's side. I saw all those large beasts stopped, and then the ball I had just tested ran to the center of the team, and the other creatures gathered around him to form a circular formation. Enemy shells flew over like raindrops. American artillery is equipped with automatic loaders and forced muzzle brakes, and the speed of artillery fire is almost as fast as that of a single-shot rifle. The artillery fire of a regiment is simply a storm. But at the moment when the rainstorm was approaching, the blue light curtain I had used suddenly appeared above the meat ball again, only this time it was hemispherical. Cannonballs rained down on the light curtain. The fire from the explosion instantly covered the entire hemisphere.

The ten-minute bombardment ended quickly. But when the fire disappeared, the blue water curtain-like protective shield was still rippling peacefully there. Major General Wu's mouth had not been closed since the first shell hit the ground, and now it was even wider. "This... can this protective shield block such an attack?"

Dad didn't answer, but took the walkie-talkie. "Protect the ball and report the damage."

"The comprehensive defense shield is operating normally. The energy has dropped by 23%, and it will take ten minutes to recharge."

Major General Wu's eyes almost popped out. "That's it? Doesn't that mean he can withstand the bombardment of an artillery brigade?"

"Almost! But today I want to show you that under normal circumstances they will choose to move their positions instead of hard-top shells."

With the end of the first round of long-range bombardment. The rocket launcher group on the opposite side started a second round of fire preparations, but the results were basically the same. Apart from knocking out some shield energy, it has almost no effect at all. When the rocket launcher ended, a large number of aircraft flew over. Of course, the base experimental site was underground, so there was no way to actually bring the jets over, so we could only use some laser projections instead. But the bombs used by the plane were real. Those were real missiles and bombs dropped from the ceiling of the experimental area.

The dome as a defensive weapon once again raised the protective shield, and at the same time a giant scorpion-like insect came out. I saw it raised its tail and pointed to the sky, and then fired a string of green ground ammunition like an anti-aircraft machine gun in the surprised eyes of Major General Wu. The target of these green ammunition is not the aircraft. But missiles and bombs. The amazing thing is that its interception rate is as high as 100%. Hundreds of bombs and missiles were flying randomly in the sky, but it actually didn't miss any of them, and not a single round of ammunition was wasted. There was exactly one round of green ammunition and one missile, not too much, not too much. few.

Longyuan's weapon expert explained: "This uses the reaction nerve of the dragonfly's compound eyes, which is three thousand times faster than the reaction speed of artificial radar. And as you can see the accuracy, the advance calculation is absolutely amazing."

While they were talking, all the bombs and missiles hit by the green slime exploded in the air. This terrible interception weapon is really frighteningly powerful.

After the fleet has passed. The main tank force of the imaginary enemy began to advance under the cover of armed helicopters. This is a standard tactical advancement method. It can be said that there are almost no loopholes. Suddenly, the troops on both sides came into contact. The helicopter first fired the anti-tank missile, and then the giant spider-like insect that was targeted suddenly jumped up and left its original position. The missile's tracking system was unable to track a target that moved so fast, and the target was lost instantly. The big spider not only dodged the attack, but also shot out a row of white lumps in mid-air.

A squadron of helicopters began to scatter, but three were still hit. The white substance immediately spread out as soon as it hit the aircraft, and then entangled the helicopter's propeller. Those white things are actually spider silk. And it's super sticky. Once the helicopter propeller becomes entangled, even if it does not stop immediately, it will not be able to reach the speed required for flight. After that, the only possibility is that the aircraft will crash. The escaping plane could not be caught, but the big scorpion turned its tail towards the helicopter again. The green liquid it shoots is much faster than the spider silk, and the helicopter has no time to dodge. These green slimes are basically liquid explosives, which explode when touched. Most of those helicopters were shot down.

The remaining helicopters wanted to speed up and rush forward. As a result, the spider sprayed out a white silk thread and caught a plane, and then pulled it violently to the side. The plane was thrown out, hit another helicopter next to it, and exploded in the air. Dozens of helicopters were shot down in succession like flies in front of Major General Wu. All maneuvers and defensive methods were almost ineffective. After looking at it for a long time, Major General Wu discovered that all large creatures have that kind of protective shield. It's just not as big or thick as the dome's protective shield, but single-target defense is definitely not a problem. As soon as they hit artillery shells and missiles, they activate their protective shields. And these missiles cannot penetrate the protective shield at all. The behemoths do not activate protection when weapons such as machine guns are fired, but all behemoths have hard exoskeletons or scales and are not afraid of machine gun bullets at all.

After the helicopter was annihilated, a giant dragon flew up on the biological legion's side. The anti-aircraft missiles mounted on the tank were all heat-seeking types. Although the dragon was warm-blooded. But the animal's body temperature is not enough to change the direction of the thermal missile. You must know that the original targets of these missiles are aircraft exhaust ports that spray exhaust gas with high temperatures of thousands of degrees. Of course, they will not react to animals with temperatures of only dozens of degrees. As for laser guidance, it goes without saying that you have to be able to aim accurately. With the flexibility of the dragon. Flying at ultra-low altitude is just like playing. From time to time, they can flop on the ground for a distance, half flying and half running. In fact, even if it is hit, it is of no use. Fortunately, he had been hit by an anti-tank missile before, but it only cracked the scales. Anti-aircraft missiles were even less powerful, so there was no hope.

The giant dragon quickly flew over the tank cluster and was immediately warmly greeted by anti-aircraft machine guns and missiles. As a result, the missiles were all dodged. And the machine gun has no use except shooting a row of sparks on him. The giant dragon landed directly in the center of the cluster, swept away a tank with one claw, and then smashed the tank next to it into the ground with its tail. When the tank behind turned its muzzle to attack, the dragon had already taken off again, and the tank gun had insufficient elevation angle to aim.

With such harassment from the giant dragon, other giant beasts in front also arrived. At the front is an iron beetle made according to the shape of my magic pet tank. This guy looks very scary, and his combat power is even more powerful than his appearance. The tanks on the opposite side had noticed him when the giant iron beetle appeared. They can't hit the giant dragon flying in the sky, but they can hit the beetle running on the ground. So they immediately opened fire to suppress it. As a result, the Iron Beetle completely inherited the characteristics of the tanks in the game, and its defense was really nothing to say. Except that the covered area can only include yourself. The Iron Beetle's protective shield and the Dome's protective shield are actually on the same level. The shell hit the protective cover and caused sparks to fly, but it did not cause any damage.

Suddenly, the elytra on the iron beetle's back opened a little to both sides, and a strange object stretched out. Major General Wu could roughly tell that this was a weapon. Its basic part was composed of bones and muscles, and there was a horizontal thing like a barrel on it. However, this barrel is solid and is only divided into three forks at the tip, two of which are on top and the other on the bottom, forming an inverted equilateral triangle. Suddenly, there was a faint vibration sound around us. This sound can often be heard under high-voltage power lines. This is the sound caused by excessive concentration of electrical energy. At the same time, a blue light ball with electric sparks appeared in the middle of the gap formed by the three crosses, and it was still growing.

Major General Wu pointed at the ball of light in surprise and asked, "What is that?"

Before Dad could answer, Vina said first: "It's a plasma cloud, or you can call it ball lightning."

As he was talking here, the electric ball suddenly broke away from the center of the trident and flew forward. The tanks over there quickly began to turn and escape, and even the giant dragon responsible for containment immediately took off. The electric ball fell into the middle of the tank cluster and did not hit any tank, but a miracle happened. There was a loud bang. The tanks near the impact point of the electric ball exploded together, affecting a range of more than 500 meters.

This time, before Major General Wu could ask, Wei Na explained: "Although the electric ball did not hit the target directly, the electric field generated by the induced electricity was enough to cause the shells and gasoline in the tank to explode. These are remote-controlled tanks. If they really hit the target, On the battlefield, it will actually be more powerful, because everyone within a radius of 1,300 meters will be electrocuted, and after that the tank will become an iron coffin and no longer pose any threat."

Major General Wu had never heard of such a weapon. Today was the first time he saw it, and it was on the back of a big insect. This really surprised him. But today Major General Wu has been constantly surprised since he entered the base, and now he has some resistance. "It's a really powerful weapon, but what about the ammunition? It takes electricity to fire that thing, right?"

"You have to ask him about this." Wei Na pushed the technical engineer out again.

The researcher from the Technology Department explained: "These combat beasts are actually the same as the vehicles used by the military, except that they are made of protein instead of steel. So! Energy consumption must be supplemented by some alternative methods. First of all, like ordinary organisms, they store energy in the cells and blood of their bodies, but we have strengthened this system. We have obtained a new circulatory system. There is a blood sac in the body of these bugs, which stores energy. Their blood. This blood itself is a high-energy substance that can carry a large amount of energy for the body to use. Although the bombardment like just now consumes a lot of energy, relying on the energy in the blood can at least continue Shoot three hundred times, which is more than enough ammunition for ordinary military artillery."

"Then what if we continue to fight and run out of three hundred cannons?" Major General Wu asked.

"There are three replenishment methods. First, when the ambient temperature exceeds thirty degrees, they can absorb ambient heat energy to replenish physical energy. Of course, this speed is very slow. Second. Direct refueling. This fuel is a mixed nutrient 'liquid' , as long as you drink it directly, you can quickly replenish energy. This is the main supplement method we designed. There is also a backup plan. These big guys actually have a digestive system, so if necessary, you can also replenish energy by eating directly. "

"Eating?" the colonel next to Major General Wu asked: "How do such big things eat? Where can we find food for them on the battlefield?"

"There's a lot of this! They don't necessarily have to eat the food we eat! They can basically digest enemy corpses, animal corpses on the battlefield, and nearby plants. But this is just a backup plan. Under normal circumstances, we still need to directly supplement it. The energy 'liquid' is the main one."

After listening to the explanation, Major General Wu looked towards the field. The behemoths completely defeated the mechanized troops one-sidedly and were unable to fight back. Many of the special abilities of the biological army were completely destroyed before they could show off the imaginary enemy on the opposite side. In fact, this is not to say that the mechanical legion's combat effectiveness is low, but because they do not have suitable weapons. None of the mechanical legion's active equipment can penetrate the magnetic energy shield. And most of the current weapons cannot keep up with the flexible speed of the giant beasts. In such an asymmetric war, it is natural for the winner to be determined so quickly.

After watching the performance, Major General Wu said to me: "Your large-scale biological combat effectiveness is very good, and the strength of individual soldiers should also be very powerful. It is not an exaggeration to form an army group with such a force."

The colonel who thought we were exaggerating at first has stopped talking now. Such an army is said to be an army group, but in fact it has much higher combat effectiveness than an army group. Major General Wu and his two colonels discussed the specific arrangements with Dad and left. Dad took us back to the center of the experimental site. The ten thousand troops regrouped in front of us on the ground. Dad patted me on the shoulder and said, "They are all your old troops, so commanding shouldn't be a problem, right?"

"Old department?" I was stunned for a moment. Then he said in surprise: "They are my evil ghost knights?"

Dad’s smiling face has already answered my question. These 10,000 regular troops are all my evil spirit knights. And they obviously already have human bodies and have even been trained in basic knowledge. Otherwise, we wouldn’t be standing here so neatly.

"How about it?" Dad said in a show-off manner: "I will help you build a biochemical army, and your safety will be guaranteed. If those old bastards come to trouble us again, I will confront them head-on. There is an army Hold it in your hand and you can speak louder! Hahahaha!"

"Dad, you'd better not be too arrogant." I said with some worry: "Ordinary people have limited ability to accept us. If we really get into trouble, I'm worried that there will be unforeseen consequences. No one suffers from poverty. And because of the inequality, ordinary people only have normal physical strength, but we have such powerful abilities, and they will feel that this is unfair. This kind of jealousy will evolve into a voice of opposition, which is very passive for us."

Dad smiled and patted me: "Good boy, have you learned to think before and after now? Don't worry! You all know how to be cautious. Will I do anything inappropriate? I won't do it unless I have to. Let irrelevant people know about this. They are your team now. If anything happens in the future, you will have basic self-protection methods, right? "

"That's true. But it's better to keep a low profile."

"Don't worry! Okay, you guys should get familiar with your new body first, and I'll take them to talk about us old men." As he said this, Dad waved the heads of each branch over and left the experimental area.

Han Wei came over and said to us: "You should familiarize yourself first, and if you don't understand, just ask me. Shuangxue will be in your group from now on, so let's get familiar with each other."

I stretched out my hand to Shuangxue and said: "Although we are enemies in the game, in reality you are still my subordinate, so don't be emotional?"

Shuangxue glanced at Han Wei reluctantly, and then shook my hand shyly after being glared at.

Wei Na came over and asked: "Since you can freeze objects, you can also heat them in reverse?"

"Of course, can't you?"

"We can also do it, but heating consumes too much energy and is not cost-effective. Anyway, the ultimate goal of changing the temperature of a material is to make it damaged and vulnerable to attack, so the method that consumes the least energy is the most suitable method. Since you are If you have expertise in this area, you will have to learn to cooperate with everyone in the future.”

"I'll try to adapt."

"It's not about trying your best, but you must adapt." I said to Shuangxue: "I think you can just be my magic pet after going online? Training in reality is too slow. We fight together in the game, and our coordination is natural So I went up. Do you think this is good?" Hehe, does this count as using power for personal gain?

Shuangxue was stunned by my suggestion. To be honest, she doesn't want to be my magic pet, otherwise she wouldn't be so responsive in the game. But she had to admit that my proposal was correct. We usually spend significantly more time in the game than outside, and there are more actual battles in the game. If we can fight side by side in this environment, the degree of cooperation will definitely increase rapidly. Although you can actually train in reality, training with training equipment is not as good as actual training.

Seeing her hesitation, I decided to push her again. "If you feel uncomfortable being my familiar, we can slowly develop a sense of familiarity. What do you think?"

"Is there an option to try out a familiar in the game?"

"Rules are dead, but people are alive, right?"

Shuangxue's eyes rolled around for a long time, and finally she said: "I refuse."

"Why?"

"Because I don't like you."

"Being a demon pet does not require you to marry me. What does this have to do with whether you like me or not?"

"I won't do it anyway."

My gosh! Encountering such a hard-hearted master, it seems that the plan to deceive the iceberg beauty will have to be worked harder.
