"I said brother, why did you bring these disgusting things here again? Take them away quickly. If you want to eat them, you can go outside or go to the "small canteen". I have to disinfect them later. "Marco said as he started to pull the sloppy man out of the room.
But from the beginning to the end, until the man was blasted away, he had a weird smile on his face, and the movements of his mouth and the sounds in his throat did not stop.
Fortunately, the sloppy man took away all the meat and remains of the "alien monster" before leaving, including the heart, which also saved Marco a lot of trouble in cleaning up.
After washing the ground with disinfectant water and sprinkling the "unintentional" disinfectant powder that he had secretly purchased earlier from the factory at the federal stronghold, Marco walked to the depths of the large room, pulled down the switch, and started the exhaust ventilation equipment, which may have filled the air. Viruses in the room are discharged to the floor through air ducts.
After doing all this, he panted and pulled Luo Nie to sit face to face on two old shabby sofas with cotton inside.
"Marco." Luo Nie frowned and asked in confusion:
"Don't you, the "wilderness tourist group", have strict discipline and cannot eat food that may be contaminated? Why was that person still eating "their" meat just now? There was a strong amount of "sorrow" and "burning liquid" left on those bodies, and it was obvious that the degree of infection was quite high. "
"They..." Marco paused, crossed his hands, propped them up on the broken wooden table in front of him, knocked on his forehead and said:
"Alas, they are more crazy and insane than those with superpowers. Actually... they cannot be counted as our team members."
"Non-staff personnel?" An unfriendly word flashed through Luo Nie's mind.
"Although you shouldn't call them that, in fact, you are right." Marco admitted:
"They should actually be counted as semi-lost people. Accepting them just reflects the kindness and fraternity of "Big Brother". In order to oppose the Federal Council, he tried to unite all the forces that can be united.
"Of course, there is another point, which is also the most important. Although they occasionally become insane, talk nonsense, and even do extraordinary things, they are born with antibodies against the "Unintentional Virus" and have strong fighting ability. They can often accomplish a lot. Difficult missions, such as assassinating the leader of a group of the Lost. "
"Can I understand it this way, Marco?" Luo Nie said sharply:
"They do all the dirty work, so you accept them but don't give them official membership. If they behave more abnormally, such as eating contaminated food and going completely crazy, you can quickly cut off the relationship, even if necessary. Execute them?"
"From a utilitarian point of view, you are right." Marco said without hesitation:
"But, Ronnie, I don't know if you've heard of a law that the Federal Council issued."
"Which one?" Luo Nie asked.
"Regulations on the Protection of Successors." Marco replied.
Seeing Luo Nie shake his head, Marco sighed softly, leaned back and said:
"One of the core provisions is that the Federal Council has the obligation to protect any human children who are born, grow, study and live in large and medium-sized settlements in the Federation without any infection."
"There's nothing wrong with this."
"But there is another sentence behind it." Marco's tone became obviously angry:
"Any other children will be expelled until they reach the age of 16. In other words, as long as their parents are lost or semi-lost, and they have come into contact with "unintentional people" and lost people, they will be regarded as In the ranks of "other than", they cannot be counted as humans in any federal regulations and laws, even if they are not infected with mutations! "
"It is indeed cruel. In the eyes of the Federation, even children must be completely divided into races and treated differently, even if there is no threat." Luo Nie sighed.
"So, 'Big Brother' believes that as long as he goes against the inhumane regulations of the federation, he can get more support and establish a federation that transcends racial restrictions. We are not just talking about it. Over the decades since the establishment of the Wilderness Tourist Group, we have indeed taken in many homeless children. "Marco said, with a sense of pride on his face, raised his head slightly, and looked towards
The bright electric lamp hanging high on the wall continued:
"We take care of them as much as possible, teach them survival and fighting skills, test their ability to assassinate enemies and escape danger, and try our best to train them into strong-willed and powerful "combatants."
"In fact, among the many semi-lost and lost children, as long as they are mentally healthy, we treat them as teammates, brothers and comrades, and we are not afraid to accept them into the team.
"But those who are in unstable status, especially the one who walked out just now, can only be given "non-staff" status first. Only when the new city base is built can they be fully absorbed and properly placed.
"After all, the only difference between official team members and "non-staff members" here is the "right of passage." To put it simply, official team members can enter almost any corner of the base, and they can only move within a limited area. "
"So, you let that..."non-staff member" who is mentally unstable live with you, aren't you afraid of getting infected? Luo Nie asked curiously.
"Of course not." Marco said with a wry smile:
"His room is next to mine, but... he saved my life. During the small "unintentional wave" near Davidsk, if he hadn't carried the injured me on his back and ran for a long time, I would have reached a hundred A temporary camp many kilometers away injected me with "Poison No. 0". I must have committed suicide by pulling out the "Breaking Core" long ago.
"Don't say he is "eating meat" in my room. Even if this floor is demolished, I will not scold him. But then again, it would be a pity to let "Yan Xi" take away the "limited device" chip this time. "
Facing Marco’s sigh, Luo Nie also regretted:
"Indeed, after all, it can be regarded as a masterpiece that the "Master of Machinery" participated in creating. If all can be recycled, it will be regarded as a meaningful gift if you are lucky enough to see her in the future. But then again, in my distant memory, I did see someone using this device, but I didn't know that it contained a chip after it was destroyed. "
"Actually, the destruction of it by "Yan Xi" is not strictly considered damage. For those Lost Organizations, the chip is actually more important. ” Marco added.
"Is it important? Let's talk about Marco." Luo Nie looked into Marco's eyes doubtfully, put his hands on the table, and asked in a low voice:
"You didn't know anything about the "Limited" series before. Could it be that you were deliberately pretending? "
"Of course not. I have always done things above board. According to the Ptoa people, I have always adhered to the spirit of chivalry. According to the standards of the Khitanris people, I am a "gentleman". "Marco looked a little angry.
"I've never seen anyone call themselves this so openly." Luo Nie complained.
"No matter what, I still have a moral bottom line. I used to engage in scientific research at the Department of War, Federal University. Any experiments related to "unintentional people" and war are fatal, and no fraud is tolerated. For knowledge, knowing means knowing, and not knowing means not knowing. ” Marco explained:
"Except for what you told me when I was fighting that dragon, what I know about the "weapon limit" is that Thalia gave me a more detailed explanation on the off-road vehicle back. Although that woman talks a lot, her expressive ability is really hard to compliment, but fortunately, I can understand her. "
"tell me the story?"
"What you know is its past, but we are already studying its future. Listen up, kid." Marco's expression slowly relaxed and he continued:
[In view of the general environment,
"You also mentioned that there are a total of 12 devices in the "Device Limit" series, which were jointly created by the "Machine Master" and the "Machine Operator". However, the "Master of Mechanics" only created the first 6 types, and the last 6 types were completed independently by the "Machine Master", forming this series together. "
"Although I really don't want to admit this detail, you are indeed right." Luo Nie said helplessly.
As a creation or apostle of the "Lord of Machinery", Luonie from the bottom of her heart does not want to mention anything that may damage her image. This is a kind of respect and piety.
"Thalia also told me how many
This is an amazing fact, Luo Nie. I hope you won’t be too excited after hearing this. "Marco took precautions in advance.
"It's okay, Uncle Marco, just tell me."
"The first six types created by the "Lord of Machines" have long been found and destroyed by "Yan Xi" and the Lost Organization behind her. After taking out the chips, they even started the ritual of "praying to the gods". In the so-called With the blessing of the power of the "Machine Master", the existence of those devices was erased.
"If you don't believe it, Luo Nie, you can try to recall their names. I think, since you can even remember the name of "reciprocating ring device", you should not forget the first six types. "Marco made a gesture of invitation towards Luo Nie.
The originally confident expression on Luo Nie's face quickly turned into surprise, and then into anger. He thought hard for a long time, and it was clear that he felt familiar, but when those memories were about to come out, they seemed to be teleported away, and he couldn't. Find every cent.
After several attempts, he gave up with a shrug. But he still asked unwillingly:
"Destroying the device and erasing its existence will do no good to the Lost."
"No." Marco shook his head, "In fact, they have a horrifying plan that has been secretly carried out, and even the Federal Council, which has deep exchanges with the Order, has no way of knowing about it. "
"What's the plan?" Luo Nie asked with a bad feeling in his heart.
"Actually, one of the ruins of the "Universal Energy Evolution Platform" you are looking for is buried under the ground at the junction of the "S Area" and the "Old Water Valley Area" in the Extreme Cold Special Zone. As long as 12 chips taken out of the "Control Limit" device are collected and embedded in the brain of an alienated lost person, the specific location of the "evolution platform" can be found and the evil technological products sealed by the old empire can be activated - - "Mind Console" is not only a weapon that can fire powerful destructive lasers, but also a controller that completely controls and enslaves people.
"and……"
"And...what?" Seeing Marco pause, Ronie asked in fascination.
"After activating all the evolution stages, you can find the group of "source image pillars" that are truly buried with the power to destroy the world under the guidance of the last "evolution stage" that most represents "fluctuating light". "
