In space, huge stars shine in the distance.
The light scorches the eyes, and the halo flickers.
A small shuttle about fifty meters long and shaped like a water droplet was advancing silently at a speed of fifty meters per second.
In the crew cabin on top of the waterdrop shuttle, thirteen fully armed people were floating quietly, facing each other.
These thirteen people are Ren Zhong, Yu Chengde, Ma Xiaoling, Bai Feng, Yu Jin, Song Muen, Wang Qiao, Qian Wangshen, Xiao Xingyue, and four new faces.
The shuttle that was supposed to carry thirteen people took a total of 167 time cycles of efforts from millions of people in the Spark Military Industry, including Qian Wangshen, Ju Qingmeng, Wen Lei and others.
In these one hundred and sixty-seven time cycles, Ren Zhong also took the trouble to act as a porter one hundred and sixty-seven times. Each time, he had to memorize a large amount of data, draw drawings over and over again, control variables, and put forward new requirements.
This variable includes both the R&D and manufacturing capabilities of Xinghuo Military Industry. After all, the time is only two days.
In addition, variables also include the rationality of the design. Under the basic physical rules of the source star galaxy, it is impossible to create materials that exceed the limits of physical rules.
Variables also include the current status of existing resources on the source star. No matter how good the design is, it only makes sense if the materials can be obtained to implement it. God knows how many locations and methods of obtaining special materials Ren Zhong recorded in order to control variables during these one hundred and sixty-seven cycles.
In short, after continuous revisions and 167 resurrections, the water-drop-shaped shuttle that can carry 13 people has reached the performance limit of a space vehicle that Spark Military Industries can produce in a short time under current external conditions.
But that’s just the appetizer.
In the first 167 resurrections, the only problem that Ren Zhong had completely solved was the shuttle.
Continuing to move forward, Ren Zhong made more attempts to adjust the accompanying personnel, each person's equipment and other related details.
From the selection of candidates, to the arrangement of weapon charging methods, to the small sensors in a certain person's armor parts, they have all been optimized over time.
But when it comes to accompanying people, the list of thirteen people is now hard-won.
Initially, the task was to set the core criteria for selecting escorts as combat effectiveness first.
But after many failures, Ren Zhong discovered that there is no upper limit to the strength of the Faceless Man. The stronger the followers he brings, the stronger the Faceless Man will be, and he will accurately overwhelm him every time, even if he constantly fine-tunes the candidates and changes The combat coordination mode is also useless.
As long as the properties of the liquid metal that make up the faceless man's body cannot be cracked, no matter how hard you try, it will be in vain. No matter how many people you go to, they will only be crushed to death by this faceless man one by one like ants.
Ren Zhong realized that although combat effectiveness was important, combat effectiveness was more determined by brute force. If you want to break through the wall of sighs in the faceless man's incarnation, you have to rely on skill.
He changed his thinking and no longer pursued absolute combat effectiveness, but instead pursued functional matching to facilitate a more refined division of labor and give scientific research meaning to the combat process.
In the new division of labor battles, Ren Zhong is not only responsible for controlling the overall situation and giving orders, but also for mobilizing the entire field, providing rescue at any time, and also responsible for charging into the battle at the right time.
Everyone else also has their own different positioning.
For example, Yu Jin, although he is only a seventh-level gunsmith, has an amazing sense of crisis and can sometimes capture the movements of the faceless man in advance. In order to bring out Yu Jin's special skills, Xinghuo Military Industry tailored a combat suit and adaptive armor with extremely strong buffering performance for him, as well as a specially modified ultra-low recoil nine-level heavy sniper, which allowed Yu Jin, a seven-level sniper, to The gunsmith can exert the lethality of the ninth-level gunsmith. With Yu Jin, Ren Zhong relied on krypton gold to easily break the shackles of the Source Star professional system. Facts have proved that in the high-tech era, the grading method that determines a person's combat effectiveness entirely by his or her own ability is inherently full of loopholes.
Another example is Bai Feng. After mastering the ability of mistletoe, he is now an eighth-level armor warrior and has mastered dozens of special armor abilities. Ren Zhong brought him with him for two reasons. The first is that Bai Feng is very reliable. The second reason is a bit cruel, that is, to maximize the use of the ability of another ninth-level armored warrior in the team. After this person dies in battle, , Bai Feng can continue to use his body to advance in battle.
As for Qian Wangshen, his task is also very heavy. As an all-rounder with both scientific research and practical combat capabilities, Qian Wangshen needs to control a large number of auxiliary machinery when the two sides fight. In addition to combat equipment, there are also a large number of scientific research devices. For example, there are collection robots that roam around the battlefield environment and are responsible for collecting broken fragments. The fragments that need to be collected are not only the liquid metal exploded from the faceless men, but also the fragments of their own equipment. Analyzing the changes in the properties of these shattered fragments can deepen our understanding of the membrane shield and the offensive methods of the Faceless Men.
The other four new faces also have great backgrounds.
Among them, the colonial soldier has no destiny and is codenamed "Xu".
"Xu" comes from Mengdu Group and is sponsored by Li Yang.
Ren Zhong learned of this person's existence through Yu Chengde. One hundred and thirty years ago, this man was the core combat force of the Mengdu Group. He had a very strange ability to reproduce. When activated, he could turn his body into energy and even physically travel across the universe. Yu Chengde was extremely afraid of this man and said that although he had only met him once, he absolutely did not want to be his enemy. Ren Zhong took the risk of being exposed and approached Li Yang, and then asked Li Yang to get this person from Hewitt.
However, the result of Ren Zhong's first expedition with Xu was not a good one. After flying out of the atmosphere, Xu, who was absolutely loyal to Li Yang, realized something was wrong with Ren Zhong and began to rebel, leading to the failure of the operation. In this battle, Ren Zhong had seen Xu's strength in advance, which was indeed exaggerated. With one against nine, this man was not defeated quickly. Instead, he fled after killing three people in a row.
After that, Ren Zhong used three timelines to study the origin of Xu, analyzed the energy ability given to him by the Mengdu Group, and targetedly analyzed the quantum laws of his brain, and then used the gradually formed "pseudo-network" computing power to perform a large number of calculations , found the resonance frequency of virtual thinking. Then, Ren Zhong invited Xiao Xingyue, who was half of his own, to use his telekinesis master's ability to interfere with Xu's thoughts throughout the process, making this dangerous double-edged sword usable.
Xiao Xingyue's thought interference hypnosis was not Ren Zhong's original invention. In order to develop this technology, Ren Zhong also kidnapped Li Yang three times, and used an ultra-high-precision information flow detector to read the changes in the information flow when forcing Li Yang to use his abilities, and then reproduced it.
There is another person from Amethyst Mining named Noel Sandro. Noel is not only the deputy director of the Amethyst Mining R&D headquarters, but also the top blaster on the Source Star. Ren Zhong spent a lot of money to reach an agreement with Gao Ya and borrowed Noel from Amethyst Mining. Of course, for safety reasons, Noel Sandro was also secretly hypnotized by Xiao Xingyue throughout the whole process.
As for the last member, he is a new talent discovered from within the Ren Group, named Chen Qiao. This little girl is an extremely talented super hacker. Although she lacks experience, as long as she is given enough information support, there is no loophole that she cannot dig out and no firewall that she cannot break through. At the level of information warfare, Chen Qiao's performance is even better than Hua Yuelan. In the past, when Hua Yuelan carried out interference and infiltration, she relied more on the excessive computing power provided by Ren Zhong. She used the famous statistical methodology to explore the essence, and then used her strength to convince others, just like destroying other people's walls head-on. firewall. Chen Qiao, however, relied entirely on intuition, bypassing other people's iron walls, digging holes on the ground, and then went straight to Huanglong.
"There are still ten minutes until we arrive at our destination. I have already made it clear to you about the precautions and specific arrangements for this operation, and I believe you can do a good job."
Ren Zhong finally spoke.
The other twelve people nodded one after another, and then each recalled the detailed action plan sent by Ren Zhong in their minds.
The feeling in everyone's hearts is a bit strange.
Ren Zhong seemed to predict every detail of what would happen next.
This action plan is not a black and white plan, but an "animated action movie" produced by Ren Zhong himself.
In this movie, the situations that everyone will encounter are outlined in detail, and at the same time, everyone is arranged in what direction and at what time, and what actions they will take, in every detail.
When learning this plan, everyone can also choose to slow down and open the detailed explanation to see their own more detailed operations simulated by Ren Zhong, even taking into account psychological activities. Ren Zhong even gave a reference for mental construction, such as which direction to pay attention to a few seconds in advance, and simulated in his mind what kind of attack from that direction would be, similar to what kind of ruin beast and weapon, what kind of ability offensive. Then, with psychological construction first, you can be prepared when facing this reasonable "emergency situation".
In short, Ren Zhong turned this battle into an exam, and he still gave an open-book exam with standard answers.
No one knows how much effort Ren Zhong has made for this moment and how many failures he has experienced.
He keeps hitting the wall, but every time he hits the wall, he absorbs the experience and lessons, and makes fine adjustments in the next attempt, improves little by little, takes one more step forward, and then hits the wall again, fails again, and improves again. …
Whether it's the membrane stand, the faceless man, or the countless mechanisms and protective devices in the white ball, every detail here has destroyed him hundreds of times.
Until now, even with his excellent memory, he still had to rely on artificial memory of numbers to remember how many times he had tried to pass the level.
This is the 3998th time.
After experiencing so many repeated failures and attempts, Ren Zhongcai finally brought the originally unattainable dream closer to within reach.
Ten minutes later, the water drop shuttle arrived again at a position three hundred meters directly in front of the white ball.
Then, the top hatch of the shuttle opened, and the thirteen people slowly and lightly flew out of the cockpit.
Everyone held their breath and pushed forward little by little, at a speed of 1 meter per second.
At the same time, the waterdrop shuttle, which re-closed its hatch cover, began to retreat quietly.
The stealth performance of today's water droplet shuttle has reached the pinnacle of the technological level of the entire Origin Star civilization, second only to the white ball.
The tilt engine, composed of tens of thousands of ultra-low-power ultra-micro single-atom jet engines, can also allow the water droplet shuttle to approach the principle white ball silently.
Another two hundred seconds passed, and the thirteen people approached a hundred meters directly in front of the white ball.
Without any orders, everyone and Ren Zhong turned on the jet engines at full power at the same time and shot forward.
The next moment, the white ball suddenly appeared.
But no one, including Ren Zhong, felt dizzy.
The active information flow hedging device installed in everyone's tactical helmet is releasing signals to the outside world to fight against the thought interference information flow from the white ball. It is just like dropping two balls of the same density and size on the calm water at the same time. The ball stirred up the water. At the position between the two spheres, the water waves coming from the two places perfectly offset each other due to the peaks and troughs of absolutely equal wavelengths, canceling each other out.
Then, still without any hesitation, the thirteen people dispersed slightly and then went straight to the upper right corner.
Over there, the round hole has appeared, and a black energy cannon is protruding from it, and the halo inside is rapidly changing from dark to bright.
At this time, a violent beam of light shot out from the formation on Ren Zhong's side, hitting the inner wall of the energy cannon's barrel.
This beam came from the ninth-level energy heavy sniper in Jhin's hand.
Yu Jin fired the gun even earlier than the round hole appeared.
After hitting, the beam cannot damage the barrel, but continues to reflect deeper into the barrel.
One point and five seconds later, the barrel shook violently, and a scorching light radiated from the inside.
It was Yu Jin's gun that accurately hit the energy gathering device at the root of the barrel after a total of more than thirty reflections, and detonated the energy beam that was about to take shape in advance.
At the same time, the thin film force field suddenly appeared, blocking Yu Chengde who was leading the way.
Yu Chengde, however, had already pushed his war stick forward.
Half of this battle stick is inside the membrane force field, and half is outside.
Yu Chengde injected energy simultaneously, and the war stick began to expand like the golden cudgel of the Monkey King.
This is not a creation of vanity.
A hole began to appear in the center of the war stick.
In an instant, the war stick turned into a five-meter-diameter passage.
Ren Zhong and the other twelve people quickly fired electricity along the passage.
Ren Zhong thought to himself.
"Damn it old men, grandpa is here."
In fact, he couldn't remember how many times he said this line in his heart.
But he knew it would happen this time.
