There was a burst of chaotic gunfire and fighting sounds from the radio that resounded through the building, and finally stopped abruptly after the guard gave a short and loud cry of pain. It seemed that the intruder had used violent means to deal with the guard and unilaterally cut off the radio communication. .
The expressions of everyone in the conference room who had not yet recovered from the shock suddenly turned ugly as the broadcast came to an abrupt end.
The enemy actually invaded the Tower of Babel silently. If not stopped in time, the intruders would have reached the seventy-seventh floor in a few minutes.
Except for Dr. Hyde, this thought lingered in everyone's mind.
No one thought the guards inside the Tower of Babel could keep out intruders.
After the popularization of brain-computer chips, crime and violence have been extremely restricted. Coupled with the advent of flexible artificial intelligence Sibyl and drone swarms that can work around the clock, various professions such as police, soldiers, and security guards have also become Past tense.
The guards of the Tower of Babel may sometimes be worse than the gatekeepers of the old world in resisting outsiders who can exercise violence.
At least the guard could still pick up a broom and beat the thief back.
The broadcast caused a lot of discussion in the conference room. However, because Hyde was in charge of the overall situation, and because all the ministers had seen the storm, and were completely worthy of the positions they held in terms of their ability to withstand pressure, their character, and their abilities and means, Therefore, everyone maintained the utmost restraint, and even if the threat was close at hand, the whispers did not turn into riots or even chaos.
Oh, what are you really afraid of?
Hyde sighed secretly, ignored the constant whispers in his ears, rubbed his temples vigorously, picked up the intercom phone in the conference room, and connected to the communication channel: control room, immediately physically cut off the operation of all elevators, and activate the safety locks Cut off the elevator shaft and lower the alloy gates everywhere in the Tower of Babel to slow down the intruders as much as possible.
yes! All elevators have been irreversibly out of service through physical damage, and the elevator shafts and towers are currently being gradually sealed off. The control room personnel on the other end of the phone also heard the broadcast and had already started to work on the blockade before the call was connected. Due to the rapid response, the intruders' plan to quickly reach the upper floors through the elevator shaft had failed. They are now trying to pass through Stairs and other routes for quick access to upper floors
If they were going to take the stairs to the seventy-seventh floor, the alloy gates and safety locks that needed to be exploded along the way would hold them back for at least several hours. The voice on the other end of the phone paused, and the other party seemed to hesitate for a few seconds before asking: Doctor, do you need to activate the highest security mode?
Hyde shook his head: There is no need to activate the maximum security mode. This is fine for now. Let me report what you know so far. Who are the intruders, their number, and their equipment.
ah? oh! OK! Maybe he didn't expect to get such an answer. The controller was stunned for a moment and didn't react. Then he realized that he had lost his composure and then exclaimed and continued: Through the playback of the surveillance probe, we found that the intruders were a group of more than 30 people with weapons. An elite squad whose equipment is one or two levels beyond that of ordinary resistance forces.
Almost each of them is equipped with adaptive optical camouflage uniforms, which can completely blend into the surrounding environment when stationary. When moving, it will cause scene disturbance and distortion of the surrounding scenery, but the degree of distortion seems to be linked to their speed and movement range. The faster the speed, the The greater the movement range, the easier it is for the scenery to be obviously distorted. If they keep moving at a certain low speed and cover it up at night, they can indeed deceive the street surveillance cameras, and it is difficult to detect through conventional detection methods. I am afraid this is why they can quietly The reason for silently bypassing heavy defenses
Each member of the team had a clear division of labor. After the elevator was out of service, several technicians took out data cables from their bodies and connected them to the elevator's internal circuit, trying to restore the elevator's operation through technical means.
The anti-reconnaissance awareness is very strong. Many surveillance probes are often destroyed before they can catch their figures. In addition, they have always remained invisible, so we can not get much information.
Although the invasion force only had a very brief conflict with the guards on the first floor and quickly returned to the invisible state, it has already enabled the relevant personnel in the control room to research a lot of things.
Hyde quietly listened to the controller's summary. The sound coming from the phone receiver was not loud, but everyone in the conference room had undergone certain modifications. It was not difficult to hear the sound coming from the receiver clearly. Soon, Everyone understood the serious situation they were facing at the moment.
It seemed that he had been tricked. After hanging up the phone, Hyde sighed helplessly: Although I had guessed that the other party would definitely send out beheading troops, I didn't expect that they would come so quickly. These troops should be in the evening when the fighting is the fiercest. Admission at different times
Johnson's face suddenly became confused: Why are you so sure of the time?
Because of the surveillance probe, the chubby security minister spoke this time. He habitually took out a handkerchief to wipe the coolant leaking from his forehead. After more than ten hours of use, the white handkerchief was now stained with patches of blue. Colorful stains, but the security minister did not care about these and continued. The surveillance cameras on the street are all high-definition cameras. The distortion of the scenery caused by their movement will definitely be detected by the surveillance cameras. It will only appear a little at night when the light is not good. The problem of performance degradation is that the power supply in the city has not been restored until an hour after dark. They can take advantage of that time to use optical camouflage to sneak into the city.
After such an explanation, Johnson immediately reacted: In other words, the previous battle in the southern district of the city was actually a feint attack? A feint to cover up the intrusion of the decapitation troops?
It's not that simple. This is a two-handed preparation. Dr. Hyde shook his head. Without the drones that can be mobilized, we can be said to be completely relying on automatic defense to survive. The enemy is constantly adding reinforcements to enter the city. The enemy is strong and we are weak. , if they can't defend the front, they don't need to use any tricks, they can just hit the Tower of Babel, but even if we block the front pressure, their beheading troops can take the opportunity to sneak in and destroy it, and cooperate inside and outside.
He turned his attention back to the map on the projection screen: the resistance forces, which had been quiet for a while, might take advantage of the invasion of the beheading troops to organize the next wave of attacks.
Then, just as Hyde had guessed, not long after the Beheading Forces invaded the Tower of Babel, the frontal battlefield that had previously been silent erupted into flames of war again, as if they were cooperating with the Beheading Forces to fight on two fronts.
The difference from the previous one was that this time the resistance attack was serious.
The armored troops drove neatly on the spacious driveway, advancing against the attacks of machine guns and rockets from automatic turrets. Even though these armored vehicles were all rough things made of scrap metal, they looked like they were going to be destroyed at any time. It may fall apart, but in fact it is much stronger than the armored vehicles of the old era in terms of performance and combat effectiveness.
Several brains are directly connected by nerves, and the armored vehicle controls loading, firing and movement through nerves. It can control the armored vehicle precisely and without delay, and simultaneously perform actions such as evading, aiming and shooting, as if the vehicle has self-awareness. In a sense, the armored vehicle controlled by the brain through direct nerve connection is an extension of their body, and since the driver, gunner and commander are no longer needed, all other spaces in the vehicle are used except for the nutrient tank containing the brain. Add accessories or armor to enhance the performance of armored vehicles.
The previous painless light weapons attacks on automatic turrets were almost extinct. After taking the enemy as their main goal, the firepower displayed by the resistance increased by more than one level compared to before. The mechanized infantry was specially built into a war machine. The shoulder cannons on their shoulders fired armor-piercing shells one after another, and the artillery positions outside the city fired large-caliber shells, roaring from the sky and destroying buildings and roads in the city.
For a time, the intensity of the entire battlefield increased several times compared to before.
Looking at the unoptimistic situation on the front line, Hyde readjusted the layout of the turrets at the rear, sighed and said: Fortunately among the misfortunes, the decapitation troops did not directly paralyze our control, because they were discovered in time and it would take several hours to capture them. Tower of Babel, the ministers of various ministries are packing up and preparing to retreat. Next, they may have to move their positions for a protracted war.
Bang!
But before Hyde finished speaking, a loud noise drowned out the second half of his sentence. Along with flying wood chips, the wooden door of the conference room was kicked open!
The sudden loud noise attracted everyone's attention, not only the ministers and Johnson, but also Hyde.
The unexpected movement disrupted his position, and he subconsciously looked towards the door.
Two figures, a man and a woman, were standing at the door of the conference room.
The man had white hair and was staring at Hyde with a scowl on his face, as if he wanted to eat him alive. The woman had blue hair reaching her waist and was pretty. She was holding a laptop in her arms and had a silly smile on her face like a curious baby. Also looking at the novel objects in the conference room.
ocean! Virtue! I'm here to settle the score with you! Jekyll looked at Hyde who was sitting at the table, gritting his teeth and almost speaking word after word. Although the latter had a trace of shock on his face, he immediately relaxed after seeing the person clearly and even took some time to himself. He refilled a cup of coffee, and then stared back without fear, with a playful mockery on his face: Are you tired of climbing the stairs?
Jekyll was stunned:? I took the elevator up. .
The smile on Hyde's face gradually disappeared: Huh?
Johnson, ministers:? ? ? ? ?
