【Chapter 349】Trust between family members
Zheng Feng's seemingly selfish thoughts are indeed biased for Zhang Jin and others, but considering the orders and personal emotions Zheng Feng received, it is not surprising. If Du Jin knew this kind of thoughts, first The reaction was not criticism and correction in the guise of justice, but a heartfelt smile and gratitude. After all, Du Jin felt at ease having entrusted his life and fortune to such a reliable person. As for the philosophical and moral issues involved, Du Jin had no time to deal with it. Pay attention.
After Yu Hua "explained" the shuttle to Zhang Jin and his party, the multiple mechanical blockades were retracted one after another, and several light waves flashed on the dark alloy protective door, like ripples in the water. Seeing this scene, Du Jin was glad that he did not touch the previously sealed protective door, otherwise this hidden protective method would probably leave him with shocking memories.
In the end, what appeared in front of Du Jin were several neatly arranged flying vehicles with unique shapes, as well as a large powered mecha that required Du Jin to raise his head and look up. Of the two silver-white power mechas used for stability maintenance, the one in front of me that looks similar to an orangutan is obviously more intimidating. Only part of it is similar to the human body structure, and the main part has been biomorphed. To deal with it, adopt the most offensive and defensive combat structure. Perhaps in appearance, this lacks a lot of beauty compared to those power mechas in the conventional sense, but in exchange, it is indeed a bit suffocating and oppressive at close range. sense and significant suppressive power and penetration capabilities in actual battles on the battlefield.
Although on the surface, this dark green power mecha does not carry any huge weapons, when faced with war weapons of this level, the unknown is often the most vigilant. Under normal circumstances, Du Jin would definitely let him Xiao Ai scanned the mecha. Not to mention its weapon system and defense system, only the power system and structural design were tens or even hundreds of meters high that humans could not reach. But for Xiao Ai's safety and his own Due to the risks he was about to face, he still suppressed his desire, but in the end Du Jin couldn't help but asked Zhang Jin who was standing aside:
"Commander Zhang, can we drive this mecha away?"
Zhang Jin was not surprised by this. Apart from anything else, this kind of war weapon brings a sense of security that cannot be compared with any other weapon and the guards. To borrow a word, it not only kills men but also women. After all, Human nature is to worship powerful things, but Zhang Jin just glanced at the mecha and then shook his head helplessly and explained:
"This is a type 2-6 zero-point fixed-point defense power mecha. In terms of movement, speed is definitely not its strong point. After all, it is designed to stick to important targets. But even if this is aside, One point, from entering to starting up a power mecha, at least seven operators are required. The verification process required is very strict. The locking system is almost completely independent from the outside world, and there is no way to intervene or operate externally. Of course, it is not There must be no way to repair problems with these independent systems, but the verification equipment that can carry out external intervention is concentrated in a specific protective place at the headquarters of the army to which the mecha belongs. It is no exaggeration to say that even if someone can break into the headquarters For defense, we may not be able to obtain those equipment, let alone... In terms of station defense discipline, I believe Comrade Zheng Feng will give Dr. Du a simpler and easier to understand explanation, especially in In terms of troops stationed on the ground.”
Du Jin followed Zhang Jin's guidance and turned to look at Zheng Feng. Zheng Feng didn't feel any restraint because of Zhang Jin's sudden transfer. He said directly in a voice that had been processed by his head armor:
"Dr. Du, if this powered mecha leaves the specified combat range without applying, the phase orientation coordinates on the mecha will automatically send an alarm message to the nearest warship. This one-way quantum signal currently has no way to intercept it and is subject to The alerted warships can carry out targeted attacks without reporting. If the target is a heavy mecha with a strong anti-air defense mechanism, the Ganymede government will dispatch warships with a higher combat level and eliminate them directly without any negotiation, including the station. , the authorization for mechas to enter or pass needs to be reported in advance 10-30 minutes in advance. If any unauthorized mechas are found, we will try to get in touch first. If there is no way to get in touch or provide special operations verification from the Ganymede military government , will start attacking immediately.”
After listening to Zhang Jin and Zheng Feng's descriptions, Du Jin realized that if he left the outpost in this powered mecha, a burst of fixed-point rays from space would be shot down within a few minutes, even if he dodged or resisted them. When Du Jin was about to reach the residential area, he would be fully attacked by the Second Airborne Corps station. Thinking that he might die with hatred in this "Iron Tower", Du Jin's beautiful fantasy was shattered.
"Ahem...Well, it seems we really need to choose another path. Have you found the shuttle that Mr. Yu pointed out just now?"
The security personnel on the side immediately led the two people to the left end of the armed loading unit, and saw a cloud-shaped shuttle appearing in front of them, but what was in sharp contrast with its appearance was the dazzling scratches on its fuselage. Injuries and signs of wear and tear, even if Du Jin looks at it from a modern perspective, he is still a "veteran" who has been on the battlefield for a long time. Whether it has reached the end of its service life is another matter. Zheng Feng on the side obviously has similar concerns to Du Jin, and makes a timely suggestion road:
"The operating status of this shuttle is not clear. In order to avoid risks, I suggest carrying out some necessary checks to prevent..."
At this time, Zhang Jin waved his hand, shook his head and refused:
"Now the scanning methods in our hands are limited and cannot be used. We can only rely on the most primitive methods to manually troubleshoot. On the one hand, it is a waste of time. If it indirectly causes the failure of certain systems and devices on the shuttle, it will not be worth the loss. What's more, Besides, this was recommended by Yu Hua, so of course he has his reasons. After all, he is also an old man at this outpost, and he knows the internal situation much better than we do. Maybe it is because this shuttle has performed many missions to prove it. In order to ensure its reliability, other shuttles here may have various hidden dangers due to running-in problems. We don’t have time for trial and error, so following Yu Hua’s recommendation is the most reliable.”
Not to mention, Zhang Jin's words are indeed quite reasonable. Not only Du Jin was touched by it, but even Zheng Feng was convinced. Although the worries in his heart still existed, Zhang Jin's words were not unreasonable, especially in response to the current situation. Given the situation of their group, they had no way to return midway to change to another shuttle. Maybe the cultists from the Unity Church would hold a "welcome party" here for their group. Thinking of the consequences that scene would bring With the visual impact, Zheng Feng did not remain silent for a long time and nodded along with Zhang Jin's intention.
No one raised any clear objections, and Zhang Jin worked very efficiently. The two driving terminal operators quickly entered their posts, and the rest quickly entered the shuttle. Although the shuttle did not look very big overall. , but with the blessing of some space technology that Du Jin was not clear about, the shuttle's carrying space was considered ample. Some people did not feel crowded after entering, and waited until the shuttle left the loading unit through the underground acceleration track of the outpost. Finally, the closed protective door opened, and an unknown man who had been hiding in the dark when Du Jin left the transport plane appeared, but now he was not wearing the ground service uniform like before, but a set of the Second Airborne Corps. The officer in uniform looked at the acceleration track where Du Jin and his party left, and then at the location of the shuttle they drove away from.
Then he let out an unexplained sneer, and then said softly:
"Interesting! No. 7 lost without complaint. I couldn't even guess what he was thinking."
In his opinion, Du Jin must have had special considerations in driving away the shuttle that obviously had problems. Whether it was to avoid the tracking of the Unity Cult or the surveillance of Ganymede, he could not guess What is Du Jin's plan, but this is just confusion. This strange man did not actively intervene in the whole process, including the lowest moment when Du Jin was affected by the "corrector", this man did not participate in any way, as if Everything had nothing to do with him, he was just a passer-by. The ground staff who was controlled by him at the airport only had his memory cleared and left. Some of the hidden diseases left in his youth were even cleared from his body.
"Well, there really should be something he can't see through. After all, from a higher level, he has the gaze of a certain god. Although he is just a puppet, it is worth getting what he wants. "
After saying that, the man's figure rippled out of thin air, and then the whole person quickly faded and disappeared. In just a few seconds, he seemed to evaporate from the air. As the protective door fell again, the entire armed loading unit The silence of the past has been restored, and except for the flashing red warning lights in some corners, there is nothing else worth noting...
With the blessing of the particle accelerating track, the shuttle Du Jin and his team were riding moved forward at a very terrifying speed. At least Du Jin looked at the rising speed on the holographic parameter panel beside him. It was hard to imagine this kind of speed. The intuitive feeling brought to his body was so slight. After Du Jin silently counted for a few seconds to confirm that he had left the hidden danger range of the outpost, he dared to let Xiao Ai lift the dormancy and isolation, and Du Jin and Xiao Ai re-established After making contact, Xiao Ai's familiar and reassuring voice appeared in Du Jin's mind for a long time:
"Master, has the risk you want Xiao Ai to avoid resolved?"
When Xiao Ai heard that Du Jin wanted to self-isolate to avoid some kind of threat that could corrode her, Xiao Ai actually didn't take it seriously at all. In her opinion, apart from the limitations due to her "body", in other aspects she It is impossible to be invaded and controlled by other AIs. Even if it is true, Xiao Ai is confident that he can escape without leaving any traces. However, Du Jin's sincere persuasion makes Xiao Ai unable to refuse. Du Jin's affection for her is like a family member, but Xiao Ai does not. It is not unnoticed that as an artificial intelligence with emotions, she had sufficient self-awareness when she was found by the current Du Jin, and in the process of Du Jin bringing her to the world, she passed massive data After perfecting her three views and personality, there is almost no gap between her and ordinary humans in terms of thinking and emotions. As for the inertia of thinking, it can only be said that many humans are closer to being blunt and rigid than AI. ruthless.
From the daily contact and interaction, Xiao Ai can also feel that Du Jin treats her like a family member. At least, the relationship between the two is consistent with what Xiao Ai thinks of as family, so under Du Jin's persuasion, Xiao Ai Ai finally agreed to Du Jin's request, and she didn't play any tricks and completely closed herself off because she believed in Du Jin.
