Since the team had already mastered the key points of avoiding patrol balls and newborn flying balls, the process of following the calculated route was smooth and hassle-free. In order to save time, Zheng Feng even pressed the time acceleration button for simulation training.
Time acceleration does not mean that the march is less difficult. On the contrary, because the reaction time left for team members is shorter, more emergencies will be encountered in a unit of time, further increasing the possibility of everyone making mistakes.
Therefore, Zheng Feng did not increase the acceleration too fast from the beginning, but chose to start from double.
When faced with emergencies, Zheng Feng showed an astonishing ability to mobilize quickly and could always issue the most accurate instructions to his team members in the shortest time.
At first, the team members were a little confused when faced with these instructions to cut the preparation time in half. But about half an hour later, under Zheng Feng's quick and step-by-step guidance, the team members finally adapted to the speed.
But Zheng Feng immediately increased the time acceleration to four times.
It was another round of panic, but in the end the Flying Tigers held on.
From the squeezing operation Zheng Feng gave the team members, Ding Hu got a taste of the way Tong Ling trained him before.
The difference is that the training given by Tong Ling to Zheng Feng is that he can come back after death, but there is no chance to come back after death in the third mechanical forest battle. Once he fails, he has to go back to the starting point, wasting a lot of time. The previous Simulation training is also considered a waste of time.
Of course, the purpose of the Flying Tigers coming here is to strengthen training, so even if they fail, they can still learn some lessons from failure, which is also valuable experience.
Zheng Feng finally locked the time acceleration at 8 times.
This is the limit that other team members can endure.
If it were faster, the preparation time would be compressed to less than 3.75 seconds, and the ten people in the two reserve teams would inevitably make mistakes while busy.
The area of error is not the body, but the mind.
For people in simulation missions, the setting of time acceleration applies to all physical phenomena, including the physical reactions of organic creatures, and even intelligent weapons with mechanical structures. However, the thinking ability of the human brain is not accelerated.
It is the human brain that is busy, not the remotely controlled body.
Each disguise requires the perfect cooperation of 30 people. As long as one link goes wrong, the disguise will be completely ineffective and there will be no room for recovery.
Seeing this, Ding Hu couldn't help but comment in the chat room.
"Others can't stand it anymore. This should be the limit. Zheng Feng is too courageous. I don't know if he really doesn't take the simulated training quota seriously, or if he is a really talented person and is bold. "
Brother Hu was immediately bullied, and it was Zhou Donglai who was responsible for raising the bar.
"Not necessarily, I feel like he is still thinking of a way."
Dong Shan, who had just remotely accessed the chat room, interrupted: "Since Zheng Feng's brain wave activity is still abnormally high, he must still be thinking of a solution."
Not long after the group finished speaking, Zheng Feng started playing tricks again.
He further increased the acceleration rate to 12 times.
Ding Hu was afraid of being bullied and did not dare to speak anymore, but he sighed deeply in his heart.
Alas, the brat is so swollen now that he will definitely have to overturn.
Three minutes later, Ding Hu let out a light sigh, feeling slightly puzzled.
The Flying Tigers encountered another team patrolling flying balls. This time the team was extremely large, with as many as 1,500 flying balls arranged in five rows. However, the Flying Tigers still responded in time and were detected by the opponent. All disguises are completed 0.1 seconds before the signal is scanned.
Brother Hu was so shocked that he found out the clue after clicking slow playback.
Other team members did not speed up their preparations.
The total time from the alarm sounding to completing the disguise is still 3.6 seconds.
The problem lies with Zheng Feng.
He sounded the alarm and issued the order 1.25 seconds earlier, even before Matta Nicklaus, who was in charge of intelligence work.
Ding Hu thought about it for a while, and then said doubtfully: "He predicted it? How did he decide that he would encounter a patrol before he came into contact with the other party's traces?"
At this time, Tang Tianxin, who had left and returned, gave an explanation: "I know."
Ding Hu: "What is this?"
"His brain is now engaged in strictly invalid thinking."
Ding Hu: "What is invalid thinking?"
Dong Shan interjected: "It means letting go of the reins. He is trying to leave decision-making to instinct, using his subconscious to analyze the external environment, and at the same time simulate the complete enemy patrol route in his mind, and then use this as a basis for judgment, and quickly decision making."
Ding Hu: "This is really nonsense. If it were in a real battlefield, just one mistake in his judgment would ruin the whole team."
"But the greater the risk, the greater the reward. If Brother Zheng Feng masters this ability in the normal flow of time, then he and his team will become extremely powerful. When Instructor Tong Ling was in the Traveler Galaxy, he used nearly The ability to predict and intuitive judgment comes to the fore.”
Tang Tianxin summarized the whole thing.
However, no matter what outsiders say, the key point is still to look at the results.
Under Ding Hu's anxious attention, another six hours passed.
During this period, the Flying Tigers were accelerated by 12 times, continued to advance forward, and covered a distance of 16,751 kilometers.
At this time, everyone in the Flying Tigers was doing everything as usual, but the bystanders outside suddenly felt their hearts in their throats.
The Flying Tigers will advance less than fifty kilometers and will enter the core area.
The elite warriors who participated in the third battle of the Mechanical Forest were defeated in this area.
Everyone was afraid that Zheng Feng would crash into it head-on, but what they didn't expect was that when he approached 30 kilometers, Zheng Feng suddenly adjusted the time flow rate and returned to the normal speed again.
At the same time, the camouflage ball that was rolling forward suddenly stopped.
Obviously, Zheng Feng sensed a crisis.
This is already the core area of Mechanical Forest Star.
In addition to the layers of giant cones, there is suddenly an "urban" atmosphere.
Just a few kilometers in front of everyone, debris began to appear on the originally bare metal ground.
The two sides are clearly divided, one side is a flat metal surface, and the other side is covered with grass like stone flowers.
There are small mechanical units that are large or small and look like insects running around on the ground and in the air.
Although it was already on the backside of the place and it was night, under the fluorescent light from the main body of the cone and the surface of these small machines, it seemed like daytime.
In order to improve the ecological breeding capacity of the mechanical forest star, the Compound Eyes not only transformed the core of the ancestors, but also created an entire ecosystem.
On this vacuum planet, which is made of metal and has almost no atmosphere, all the mechanical life forms are living well, forming an ecosystem that exudes a strange beauty.
However, the real threat to the Flying Tigers at this time is the seemingly harmless micro-mechanical creatures ahead.
When other teams approached the ecological circle, they were confused and confused.
Everyone knows that the core of the ancestor must be in the inner layer, but no one knows the characteristics of the metal biological ecosystem ahead.
After much hesitation, the special operations teams adopted different methods and continued to advance.
Some try to change their form and fly directly from the sky, some continue to use the previous mode and approach from the ground, and some simply rush at full speed.
But without exception, these warriors quickly exposed their whereabouts and fell into the overwhelming encirclement generated by the activation of the entire mechanical forest star.
Zheng Feng thought for a moment and decided to lead the team and continue rolling forward.
The people watching sighed sadly.
Zheng Feng made a mistake in his judgment and should have charged directly. That way he could at least move forward a little further after being exposed.
If you rush fast enough and perform your dodge maneuvers well enough after being exposed, you might even have a chance to see the silver-white ancestral cone through the horizon, although it is not tall, but the color of its case is completely different from other cones.
Just three minutes later, the Flying Tigers approached the grass.
Li Qingqing, who was in charge of biological analysis, carefully used optical instruments to collect information and then relayed it to Zheng Feng.
"Compared with the organic plants we are familiar with, the growth pattern of the metal grass in front is very strange. They grow very slowly, and the chemical reactions are mainly electrochemical, and the atoms are transferred bit by bit through the weak force of the magnetic field. , slowly polymerize into new substances. Under normal circumstances, this reaction process should be very long, and it will take at least hundreds of thousands of years to grow metal grass that is half a person tall. As for those beetles and other mechanical animals, it will take It will take at least tens of billions of years for these things to come."
Zheng Feng pondered: "But according to the records of nihilistic history, this mechanical forest star did not originally exist. Therefore, it only took a few hundred years for the compound-eyed people to mature the mechanical forest."
Li Qingqing nodded, "Yes."
Edgar: "So there must be another unnatural external force involved, a factory?"
Morrison: "That's right!"
"You all shut up and let me think about it." The ball transformed by Zheng Feng rolled around on the spot.
He suddenly remembered a joke from a thousand years ago, about being indecisive when faced with problems, and quantum mechanics.
Assuming that under the magnetic field, there is another layer of laws that has been operating quietly, allowing the weak force of the magnetic field to be regularly strengthened, constantly breaking chemical bonds, and even the strong interaction force between nuclei, then it seems entirely possible to accelerate growth. process.
I want to go back and think about it, but after all, I have to take one more step forward to find out.
After deliberation for a while, Zheng Feng decided to explore forward alone.
He cut himself off from everyone else and made arrangements.
"If I fail, Mata will be responsible. Your task is to rush forward with full power. You can rush as far as you can. By the way, Edgar's escape ability is second only to mine. The others are here. We need to cover Edgar more often. Our scoring is based on how close we are to our destination.”
After giving the instructions, Zheng Feng rolled forward and entered the mechanical biological ecosystem.
The next moment, Zheng Feng's rolling body suddenly stopped and there was no more movement.
"Oh, it's over."
Brother Hu, who has always tried his best to criticize Zheng Feng, made decisive comments.
Although the other bystanders didn't say anything, they thought so in their hearts.
According to past experience, Zheng Feng was already a "dead man" at this time.
It's not just his remotely controlled camouflage ball that dies. In the simulation system, his body hidden on a nearby planet will also be brain-dead simultaneously.
Most of the past agents were defeated by this.
Zheng Feng's biggest mistake was that as the captain, he should not take the lead and let the members of the reserve team try out the depth first.
When he looks back and realizes how powerful he is, and leads the charge, he can at least get closer and score more points.
The simulated mission monitor simultaneously switched to Zheng Feng's virtual body.
A dense mist composed of thousands of extremely fine fibers was revealed.
This is exactly the quantum storm in the brain of Zheng Feng's sleeping body after materialization.
At this time, the real Zheng Feng was sleeping in the simulation training room of the First Pioneer Academy.
During the mission, his virtual body was also sleeping, forming a new independent consciousness.
The fog that everyone saw before their eyes became Zheng Feng's dream, which was reverse transcribed by Fanxing, who was in charge of the special training.
At this time, the fog that had been in a highly active state suddenly turned absolutely still.
The old man Dong Shan explained: "Fanxing has figured out the principles of the ancestral core of the mechanical forest, and she simulated it really well. At this time, Zheng Feng has entered a state of thought freeze, and his thoughts are being read by the preset program in the ancestral core. The ancestral core will peel off the camouflage on the surface of his thinking bit by bit, find the human core inside, and complete the judgment between friend and foe."
Zhou Donglai hummed to express his understanding, and then his thoughts moved slightly.
The next moment, two people in this ultra-small chat room were kicked out.
One is Ding Hu and the other is Tang Tianxin.
Tang Tianxin didn't have any objections. She knew that what happened next might involve some secrets, but she didn't care, so she turned her back and went about her own business.
Ding Hu, on the other hand, looked confused and furious.
Brother Hu was so furious on the spot that he really broke into a ghost!
I'm the head teacher!
My students are pushing their limits, how could they not let me see them!
After being angry, Brother Hu couldn't do anything. He could only huff and turn to the perspective of others in Feihu's class, becoming a side bystander.
From the perspective of others, the ball transformed by Zheng Feng still stayed in place blankly.
Time gradually passed, and nearly an hour passed in the blink of an eye.
During this period, another twenty-nine members of the Flying Tigers were reorganized twice into cone camouflage to avoid being swept away by patrol balls that accidentally approached.
Under the previous time-accelerated and intensive training, even without Zheng Feng's command this time, everyone did not make any mistakes.
But the strange thing is that nothing happened inside, and the captain Zheng Feng still stayed where he was.
Finally, Zheng Feng's voice came from inside, "It's done, you can all come closer."
His voice sounded very tired, but there was also a hint of inexplicable excitement and excitement.
Everyone moved closer in confusion.
Zheng Feng's next order made everyone even more puzzled.
"Okay, no need to disguise. Let's switch to high-mobility mode. We will keep flying forward close to the ground. In five minutes, we will be able to see the core of the ancestor."
Edgar said sullenly, "Captain, what did you do?"
Zheng Feng smiled mysteriously, "Confidential."
He really thought this was a major secret, but he didn't know that Zhou Donglai and Dong Shan were already looking at each other with confusion.
Just in the past hour, it was obvious that Fanxing should have completely recreated the Ancestral Core and prepared to infiltrate his mind, but it turned out that the Ancestral Core had been reverse-infiltrated by him.
In the concrete fog, people only saw such a change.
A symbol representing the core consciousness of the ancestors slowly floated out, rising in the wind, expanding into a piece of cloth, covering it like plastic wrap.
In the past, in the real world, the consciousness of other special forces members would be easily swept through this cloth, and all secrets would be invisible.
But luckily for Zheng Feng, the cloth disappeared out of thin air not long after it was covered.
Mastermind Fanxing sent another explanation to Zhou Donglai and Dong Shan, "I'm not sure what happened. In short, he seemed to have used this brief contact to absorb the core knowledge of the ancestor of the Mechanical Forest and implant his own consciousness. Let the ancestor of the mechanical forest, who originally only had calculation rules and no independent personality, become a part of his own body."
"How is this possible! Isn't the ancestor of the Mechanical Forest a modified Mystery Core? The regular knowledge mastered by the Mystery Core is just a huge stacked memory symbol! What Zheng Feng put in now is just a piece of brain chain projection generated The memory of the virtual personality is based on the support of your database, the master brain. How could you not know what happened? How could he absorb such a huge flow of information! "
Dong Shan shouted.
Fanxing shrugged, "If I really knew everything, then humans wouldn't need sages, they would only need me."
"Well……"
Old man Dong Shan was speechless.
