In Stark Tower, Stark was tinkering next to a strange machine shaped like a flower bud. Schiller, Coulson and Hill were all standing nearby and watching. Finally, Stark pressed the button and said: "Remember , the maximum killing range of this ultraviolet generator is only 20 meters, you'd better lure all the vampires together and then turn it on." Just after finishing speaking, Jarvis sent information: "A large number of vampires appeared on the 3rd street in Queens. "Colson said with a headache: "Sure enough, as soon as it gets dark, they will launch a full-scale attack."
"What happened to the bat monster?" Schiller asked. Coulson had an even worse headache. He said, "What a ghost. That monster disappeared!" Stark stood up straight, stuck his head out from behind the machine and asked, "Disappeared? Such a big monster, Didn’t you find someone to keep an eye on him?”
"The captain fought with him for a long time. According to the information sent back by the captain, the monster was not very aggressive. It seemed to be just a signal. He didn't see what was going on, and the bat monster disappeared."
"Don't let your guard down." Schiller said: "The so-called bat god's power has come. This monster may be just an appetizer. After all, if you are going to invade, you will not put the big killer on the vanguard. .”
"That's right." Hill said in a serious tone: "Director Nick also thought that it was just a sign of attack, and he did play all the roles of the attack horn. Now that the sky is darkening, a large number of vampires lurking in New York have started to Let's get active. When it gets completely dark, we still have a fierce battle to fight." Coulson glanced at his watch and said to Stark: "How many such ultraviolet generating devices can be produced in three hours? "
"Up to 20." Jarvis replied. .
"Stark Industries' production lines have started production at full capacity, with less than 1% remaining redundancy. However, due to speed restrictions, they can only produce up to 20 units before dark."
"Totally not enough," Colson said.
"Don't you, SHIELD, stockpile any weapons to deal with vampires?"
"Of course we have it." Hill stepped forward, she held the machine and said, "But those are all individual soldier equipment, such as ultraviolet flashlights, silver-plated bullets, etc. If you don't look at the number of vampires in New York now, I don’t know where so many of them came from…”
"In other words, you don't have enough firepower for group attacks?" Schiller asked.
"This is the biggest problem." Colson sat on the chair. He put a hand on the table and covered his forehead and said: "A well-trained agent, if he is fully armed and equipped with all the means to restrain vampires, Weapons, then they can ignore the difference in physical fitness and magic and deal with 1 to 3 vampires."
"But the problem is that the number of agents is too small compared to the number of vampires."
"The police can only deal with one at most, let alone ordinary people. Ten of them can't defeat one vampire. Once the vampires organize a group attack, the numerical difference will increase by more than 10 times."
"They have two different forms. The humanoid and bat forms can do different things, and each has its own focus. Once an organized strategic attack begins, the human defense line can hardly last for less than an hour."
"Where's the heavy firepower?" Hill also covered his forehead and said: "Actually, this is the biggest problem. You know, there are many moderates in the vampires who have good relations with high-level officials in Congress. The moderates said they have no idea what happened. They stated Moderate vampires did not participate in this invasion at all, and strongly protested against humans using heavy firepower to attack vampires indiscriminately."
"Actually, I can also understand the decision-making of some congressmen, because if humans really let the heavy firepower of missiles come to an end, once the moderate vampires are forced into panic, then these vampires will also participate in the invasion, and then it will really A war broke out between the two races."
"Many moderate vampires live in human society and play many important roles. Some even fall in love and marry humans. Once a war breaks out between two races, social stability will experience huge turmoil. No one wants this. The results we saw." Stark said angrily: "Then we are beaten like this and don't fight back? Why can't they solve their internal affairs by themselves? We only need an answer, should we fight or not?"
"I guess those moderates told you that they are actively negotiating to ease the conflict, but I can tell you clearly that most of them are waiting for the so-called Bat God to come. Once the vampires gain the upper hand, they will He will immediately switch sides and declare that he is also a believer of the Bat God and is born to rule humans."
"Ambition always expands with ability. The so-called moderates just want to wait for one of them to gain absolute advantage. They are a group of outsiders. Once humans gain the upper hand and the Bat God makes no next move, they will immediately claim that they are Messengers of friendship between the two races, but once the Bat God really comes and brings the end of mankind, they will immediately crawl at the feet of the Bat God and say that they are devout believers." Schiller said.
Coulson sighed, spread his hands and said, "Everyone understands this. This is our current predicament."
"But you forgot, you still have a card. Don't tell me that Nick hasn't found out where the missing Internet line in New York went." Colson opened his mouth and said hesitantly: "You Are you talking about diverting trouble to the east? But isn’t this too risky? After all, we have almost no understanding of that force.”
"That's something you have to decide for yourselves." After Schiller finished speaking, he turned to Stark and said, "Don't worry about your large-scale generating device. Can't you change your mind?" Stark said, "You Do you have any more genius ideas? Tell me, I liked your cigarette last time..."
"After all, isn't it that the individual combat capabilities of agents are not strong enough, and the number is not large enough? Then you can't make some agents for use?" The other two agents showed a strange expression, but Stark came Interested, he said: "What do you mean? Drone armor?"
"That's right, don't you still have a lot of mechas in the warehouse? Produce some individual equipment and equip them with them, such as ultraviolet flashlights, silver bullets, etc. Can't you just equip them? Let them deal with vampires. ,
"Jarvis's intelligent library does not have the intelligent logic to deal with this kind of monster, but I can indeed send a vanguard of mechas to collect this logic and then start optimizing it."
"You can have a bigger brain. Don't always think about humanoid mechas, and don't always think about going on the field and shaking your fists. You don't even need to design and produce it yourself." Schiller walked near the experimental table, and then Said: "You can completely design an intelligent nest with self-calculating capabilities, and then arrange multiple such nests throughout New York according to certain rules."
"The Brood can automatically produce mecha creations of different specifications according to the logic you set, such as light drones for reconnaissance, ground mechanical troops, self-propelled spotlights with ultraviolet irradiation function, and ones used to interfere with vampire actions. Bioresponse force, etc..."
"When the Brood produces these machines and puts them on the battlefield, each mechanical creation can record the actions of their opponents, and then record their own combat effects and transmit them back to the Brood."
"The Brood can re-adjust the direction of production based on this information, and when all Broods aggregate information into Jarvis's intelligent library, you can get a regional combat network with the widest coverage, the most accurate and clearest coverage."
"Then you don't have to wear that iron shell to destroy those monsters. Instead, you can sit in the laboratory of Stark Tower, control everything, and become the true master of machinery." Coulson and Hill listened. I was in a daze and felt a little creepy.
In fact, this concept is not very advanced. It is just the basic principle of information warfare. However, once these contents are replaced by Stark's advanced mecha creations, the whole scene looks very sci-fi, even a bit disturbing. A person's back feels cold.
Think about it, there are several huge brood nests all over New York, constantly bursting out countless machine creations. They all have their own intelligence. After going to the battlefield, they can not only cause effective damage to the enemy, but also can kill all the enemies after defeat. Data is transmitted back to the parent nest.
The mother nest has an extremely advanced calculation system that will remove the shortcomings of the offspring produced next and strengthen their advantages based on the information returned by the offspring that failed in the last battle.
You can also specialize each combat unit and then carry out tactical coordination. The torrent of steel erupted from several broods will flood the entire city and destroy all enemies here. The steel skeleton penetrates the barriers, the gear bearings swallow everything, and Star Gram, he can sit in the laboratory of Stark Tower and control everything.
Wait, is there something wrong with this style of painting? Coulson shuddered and said: "I don't think... vampires are very strong. We can save this tactic for later use." But Stark's eyes shone. He paced in place, and then used his hands to shape Riot said: "Actually, I have been considering lightweight combat. As you all know, the cost of producing a mecha is too high. Once it is put into the battlefield, it is damaged and the repair time is too long. I have been considering a low-cost, Mechas that are easy to repair and can be used on the battlefield in large numbers.”
"But there is a problem with this kind of mecha. Once the cost is reduced, their processors will not be able to accept overly complex instructions, and their functions will be weakened and become less comprehensive. Facing various enemies, You may not be able to react quickly."
"Moreover, once I change my opponents, I have to completely upgrade them to install new functions. The money and time spent will be almost the same as that of advanced mechas, which is not cost-effective."
"Yes, the idea of the Brood is very good. Why should I repair the mechas one by one? Why don't we just set up a smart production line and let them produce it by themselves and repair it by themselves?"
"And as you said, if they can really collect data, analyze, optimize, transform, and strengthen production by themselves, it will be much faster than having to fight a war and then have me personally transform it, right?"
"That can be directly optimized on the battlefield and directly produce first-, second-, and third-generation adaptive mechas to target the opponent's weaknesses."
"And it is true that we can not stick to the human form. People have two feet on the ground and their center of gravity is unstable. Even if the mecha can fly, it still needs more energy. So why don't I design more legs for the mecha? Right... That’s right…that spider boy is a good example!”
"Spider-Man can stick to the wall, and so can the mechas I built. I can even give them eight legs, and they can also spin silk, allowing them to easily climb the walls of tall buildings. As for defense,"
"Let me think about it, I can completely build a transport ship for mechanical soldiers, provide them with high maneuverability, and even give them the ability to float and fly."
"When the production line produces this kind of transport ship, the mecha soldiers can be folded and placed inside it, and then arrive at the battlefield as quickly as possible to release soldiers." Stark became more and more excited as he talked, and he imagined several imitating animals. A lot of design ideas were put into the design of the brood structure and troop transport ship.
Finally, Stark even wants to transform the Stark Tower so that the top of it becomes a folded sky mother nest. Once it encounters an invasion by an alien force, it can be quickly raised and unfolded, and it can enter explosive mode in an instant.
Coulson and Hill stood side by side. He patted his colleague on the shoulder and whispered tremblingly: "Call Nick quickly! Vampires are no longer the main problem now. If SHIELD can't solve it quickly, Vampire, then the technological devil Stark will rule the earth."
"What are you thinking? Two minutes ago, I recorded Stark's speech and sent it to Nick..."
"Then what did he say?"
"The congressmen voted unanimously to adopt the battle plan for humans to resist vampire defense and counterattack before they finished reading it."
"New York and its surrounding cities were immediately put under martial law. All response forces entered combat mode and asked us to resolve this comprehensive invasion within three days. Don't give Stark any chance to perform."
