In addition to the need for two universal printers, this function is generally only applicable to adjusters who have reached depth 7 or above and completed the second transformation - the first transformation refers to the realization of a full-body prosthetic body in addition to the biological brain. transformation; and the second transformation is the complete realization of prosthetic transformation, including the biological brain.
People who still have biological brains can easily fall into the cognitive fear of "I am actually dead" after "space teleportation", which can lead to mental index collapse.
Only adjusters who have completely completed the transformation of biological brain prosthetics and calmly accepted that the medium of their existence has been transferred can calmly accept this.
For Christie, this transmission seemed to be completed in an instant, and it seemed that a long, long time had passed - the destruction and rebirth that could destroy the will of ordinary mortals had happened to her, but she didn't care at all.
When she opened her eyes again, her coordinates had been updated to Nord. At this moment, he was surrounded by a circle of employees wearing the uniforms of Pluto Deep Diving Company.
"Welcome, Ms. Christie."
One of the leading managers saluted respectfully. His head was covered with fine beads of sweat. This was natural. When a mechanical lizard with a black background and red edges, about four meters high and ten meters long, appeared. Anyone would feel nervous when in front of him.
After activating the optical camouflage to hide his body, and then turning on the projection to release the humanoid interactive interface, Christie asked straight to the point:
"Are the Wolfsbane troops here?"
The leader shook his head:
"They have only reached the negative level so far. It will take fifteen minutes at the earliest to get here."
Christie was delayed in Tartarus for about a week because he needed to bind the permissions for the deep dive interface. The Wolfsbane troops sent to perform the mission had already set off from Tartarus a week ago on high-speed transportation equipment.
Obviously the other party set off a week in advance, but he got here first. I have to say that this feeling is really strange.
However, I didn't expect those guys to be of any help - in fact, the people from the Wolfsbane Force were here mostly because they were sent by the board of directors to monitor me.
"What about the people in Icarus? I think they should have been warned through trustworthy channels, right?"
Christie then asked.
Hearing this, the person in charge's face instantly showed an embarrassed expression.
"The current situation is like this, madam...Those thugs are still occupying the geothermal power station that is about to be completed. And according to calculations, they are likely to possess weapons of mass destruction."
His expression was full of words - this is a thunder, it should be handled with caution.
In response, Christie nodded and immediately began to deduce possible future developments.
Forget it... let's go to Liao Qi first and explain to him the reason for his visit.
After countless plans were established and overturned, she finally came to this conclusion.
No matter what, it would be better to avoid conflicts as much as possible - even I am not willing to conflict with the guy who was inspired by the "paradox".
"When the Wolfsbane troops arrive..."
Thinking of this, Christie reminded:
"Tell them not to take the initiative to use lethal force against the Icarus Liberation Front unless they are attacked. I will handle the matter here personally, and letting them take action will only get in the way.
"do you understand?"
Those people nodded quickly - for a deep 7 figure, what other opinions could they have besides obeying.
Seeing this situation, she said no more, but casually took over the system of the intelligent control center, opened the door and left.
…………
If the other party has mastered weapons of mass destruction and wants to use them as a deterrent, then the most likely possibility is to bind a bomb of sufficient yield to the geothermal power station under construction...
Along the way, while rushing to the negative seventh floor, Christie thought.
Even if you are yourself, you cannot destroy a behemoth like the resettlement area by relying solely on your own strength - this is not a question of efficiency, but a question of equivalent volume. If the other party feels that it has the leverage to trade with the company, it will definitely need to bring in outside power.
As long as the opponent's bomb is powerful enough, it will trigger the siphon effect of the geothermal power station, causing underground magma to pour back and destroy the foundation of the settlement area; or it will directly cause local plate oscillations and turn the entire settlement area into ruins...
"So, why are you making things so tense..."
Christie, who was flying on the dome, complained like this. At this moment, she happened to fly in front of a wall made of polymer material.
Christie, who was too lazy to take the long way around, activated the prosthetic body, and then a vision happened.
"hiss……"
First, there was a similar echo in the surrounding air, and then her anti-gravity device felt a gravitational wave disorder.
Almost instantly, she lost her balance and began to fall - as if someone had tied dozens of tons of lead weights to her body.
She is very familiar with this kind of attack method...
The radar deployed instantly, and as she expected, a high-energy reaction was detected on a high-rise building about ten kilometers away from her.
A directed energy sniper cannon was gathering a blue energy beam. Based on the readings she was observing now, its core had already exceeded the temperature of the sun's corona.
Aegis Arms and Gorgon form.
The person who sneaked up on me was an adjuster of Perseus' path!
This conclusion was reached quickly, but the opponent who had been lying in wait for a long time was even faster. A blue beam of light shot out and directly penetrated Christie who was flying in mid-air. A brilliant spark exploded in the sky - not only that, the remaining power of the beam also directly penetrated the lead-gray dome.
It shot out at an angle, burning down three houses, two cars, three genetically modified trees that provided underground oxygen, and a carbon fiber load-bearing column along the way - it penetrated from the fourth floor of the resettlement area to the second floor. Its power has only weakened to the point where it has no lethality.
[The target chose the route predicted by No. 3, and the hit has been confirmed... Is he dead? 】
After such a cannon was fired, the scorching temperature burned the metal frame of the fixed directed energy weapon into a glass shape. Number 1 pulled out the hand cannon that served as the ignition device from the "Gorgon" and then asked in the communication channel.
According to Cassandra's future deduction, he now easily killed the organization's former nightmare as if hunting...
[Lack of intelligence, we can’t deduce it, but if she didn’t launch a probability cloud defense... No, at six o’clock, she is still alive! 】
Cassandra's warning suddenly came, and a strong sense of crisis exploded in No. 1's heart.
And the next moment...
"Don't move, I've seen you"
A woman dressed as a punk appeared a hundred meters away from me at some point. Her cheek cracked, and a lithium flower about half a meter in diameter grew out of it like a flower.
The activation distance of strong observer vision is within 150 meters, unless a pure metal bunker can be found immediately, or there is also a probabilistic cloud defense system. Otherwise, as long as you are within sight, you will die if you are targeted by her.
"Long time no see... Prototype No. 1 of Perseus, I didn't expect you to be still alive?"
Christie, who appeared here like a ghost at some point, said this.
Her tone at this moment was as if she had met an old acquaintance.
After bringing the opponent into her field of vision, she did not immediately activate the strong observer vision - there was no additional bunker on the roof of the building, and no matter how fast the opponent's evasion speed was, it could not be faster than her line of sight.
In comparison, she is more curious about other things now.
[I also want to ask this question... Why are you still alive? 】
At this moment, No. 1, who was locked in the other party's eyes, asked in confusion.
I clearly hit the opponent before...
In fact, it was all just luck - Christie thought to herself.
In order to take a shortcut, she had planned to quantize herself directly through the wall blocking her. But it turned out that by mistake, the probability cloud defense system happened to avoid the damage of that directed energy weapon.
If he eats it without any defense, he will be severely disabled even if he is not dead.
But Christie wasn't boring enough to explain this to the other person - let him guess for himself.
So, she turned to ask:
"So, how did you know that I woke up? And why did you know that I would come to the Nord Resettlement Area?"
She had no intention of asking the other party for their motive for killing her—the α-level deep-diving interface in the hands of Pluto Deep Diving Company was the one she snatched from Prometheus back then. As long as they know that they are back, the Fire Thief will definitely be the first force to want to kill him.
But the question is, how did the other party know that he was back?
Regarding these two questions, No. 1 answered very frankly:
[I know you will wake up because of Cassandra’s deduction. I witnessed Paradox and Charon going to Narcissus Plains together, and she came to this conclusion]
[As for why I knew you would come to the Nord Resettlement Area...it's because we are all here for the "paradox"]
[Liao Qi, the guy chosen by "Paradox" is the key to closing the Styx Firewall] (End of this chapter)
