Puppeteer [Interstellar]

The worst thing is that when these bugs found a breakthrough, most of the people in the base were still sleeping soundly. No one realized the existence of the crisis at all. They were still immersed in the beautiful dreamland without realizing it. Dangerously close.

After the first bug found the skylight, it quickly began to pry the metal window door of the skylight.

The skylight is a huge square opening on the ceiling. It is very huge and can accommodate a giant cargo ship to fly in after it is fully opened. However, it is usually closed, and the metal movable window will make it firm. Sealed, but although the metal movable window is very strong, it cannot withstand the destruction of the Zerg.

An insect might not be able to pry open the skylight quickly, but after it roared a few times, all the nearby Zergs took action, and they collectively climbed up the outer wall of the academy base, to the highest place on the top floor, a group of The bugs immediately surrounded the unlocked skylight, and they hissed and roared at the skylight.

At this time, the control room of the docking port was actually occupied by people. Two staff members were staying up late and working overtime to guard the control room. Through the glass of their control room, they could see the whole picture of the docking port. Insects have begun to chisel the skylight, and the movement they make can definitely be seen clearly.But the most regrettable thing is that these two people stayed up late and worked overtime, and they were a little distracted at the moment, and now they basically just sat on their seats and took a nap.

Halfway through the nap, one of them seemed to hear a faint sound of smashing, like someone hitting a metal wall with a hammer. He didn't react to this strange sound for a while, thinking that he was dreaming, he curled up in his chair and turned over, trying to continue to take a nap, but the sound continued in his ears, it was a bit too noisy There is no peace for man.

Then the man sat up from the chair. He first opened his mouth and yawned. He lay down on the console in the control room and operated for a while, wanting to check whether the various mechanical equipment were in good condition, but when he made a move, He suddenly realized something was wrong.

That's strange, isn't he already awake?Why is the voice in the dream still ringing in my ears?

In fact, the sound of "dong dong dong" in the ear has not stopped at all. The sound insulation effect in the control room is very good. To his ears, how loud must this sound be outside the control room?

The night watchman didn't know where he was, and raised his head in doubt. He looked towards the glass in the control room, through which he directly saw the scene of the ship's dock outside.

There are not many spaceships parked in the docking port, except for a few academy spaceships specially used by the academy to pick up and drop off students, there are some small spaceships for lifesaving. An empty lot.

But now, the staff member found that there was a lot of dust in the docking port. He found that a large amount of dust was falling down on the ceiling of the docking port, making the huge space of the docking port full of dust. It's like a foggy scene.

The staff was baffled. He squinted his eyes and looked up through the hazy dust. It was probably at the position of the skylight. It seemed that something outside was hitting the skylight vigorously. It was because of this impact that the skylight and even the docking port were closed The ceiling was trembling slightly, spreading dust all over the entire port.

Seeing this scene, the staff member was stunned for a moment, his brain was a little blank, what he thought was that there should be a defensive net outside the base, and that thin but strong energy defense net can block The Zerg's footsteps made them lie on the defense net and howl uselessly, instead of penetrating the defense net and smashing the metal windows and doors of the skylight wildly there.

But now they are indeed, beyond doubt, they are frantically beating on the metal windows and doors of the skylight!

The staff who reacted were so frightened that they almost jumped up!He suddenly panicked, and first rushed to his colleague who was on duty with him. He shook his colleague's shoulder vigorously to wake him up, and his colleague opened his eyes in a daze, and muttered dissatisfiedly. He said: "What are you doing? I'm dreaming..."

"Bugs... bugs... there are bugs!" The staff member was incoherent. He stretched out his hand and pointed desperately to the position of the skylight that could be seen through the glass in the control room.

But his colleague still had a puzzled look on his face. He didn't understand why he was so flustered at all. He frowned and said, "What the hell?"

The staff member gave up, let go of his colleague's shoulders, turned around and pounced on the console in the control room, and started an emergency operation. He tried to calm himself down, and the bugs hadn't hit the window of the skylight yet. Hey, he still has some time for remediation. He wants to take advantage of this time to make the most effective recovery. The first thing is to check the program of the intellectual brain, let the intellectual brain lock the skylight again, and give the skylight's defense net Make it up.

At this time, the staff member's colleague finally noticed the tragic scene at the docking port outside. He was frightened and froze. After a long time, he finally came to his senses. He yelled: "Turn on the alarm! Hurry up! !"

The staff was busy, and they also yelled: "Don't make noise, I'm checking the brain's program! You go and sound the alarm, and seal the docking port by the way, in case those bugs really come in..."

However, the good times didn't last long, and just as the staff member finished speaking, half of the skylight, window and door of the dock over there had been smashed down by the Zerg with a bang!

Yes, the skylight, window, and door were smashed halfway open, revealing a huge gap. The Zerg outside howled a few times, and one of the insects had already stuck its head in. It stuck the skylight, window, and door with its claws, and half of its body They all leaned in, and it let out a deafening howl as it leaned in, as if to determine the situation inside the port.

The two staff members in the control room who witnessed this scene with their own eyes were stunned for a moment. They didn't understand why it happened in such a short period of time. Why can it quickly develop into this terrible situation that is simply irreversible! ?

It was too late to think any more, and the two staff members could not continue to sit still, so they had to start their actions in a panic. One of the staff members continued to check the program of the brain, and the other began to start the working program of blocking the entire docking port non-stop. And the alarm was sounded immediately.

At the same time, Lyle and Scar had just finished their work. Lyle was bullied by Scar and was very weak. He was carried by Scar to the bathroom to clean up. After washing his body, after coming out, Lyle felt that he A strange sound seemed to be heard.

Scar beside him also became alert. The two of them felt something was wrong almost at the same time. Because they felt something was wrong, they also acted according to their instincts. Lyle quickly found out the clothes and put them on. exception.

At about this stage, all the puppeteers in the base who already had golems were awakened by their golems. The golems all have excellent perception abilities, and they will soon perceive the invasion of the Zerg , in order to prevent danger, they will definitely find ways to inform their masters of this matter in advance.

Although some grumpy masters will beat or abuse them severely after being awakened by golems.

But golems don't feel pain or boredom, and their only purpose is to protect their master, even if the master doesn't like them.

The sound of the alarm soon sounded, resounding in every corner inside and outside the base. At this time, Lyle and Ska had already put on their clothes, but someone in the base soon started broadcasting, asking all students and related personnel to behave themselves Just stay in your room and don't go out, they will have special personnel to solve the problem.

That's what I said, but Lyle looked at Scar beside him. Scar looked very anxious, so anxious that he started to circle in circles. Lyle could also feel his anxious emotions. He knew that Scar was conscious. Danger is at stake, and this danger makes it impossible for Scar to remain calm.

In fact, not only Scar, but Lyle also had that strange feeling. He always felt that he seemed to hear a lot of noisy voices.

Or, he thought he heard the voices of the Zerg.

And this is not the first time that this happened. When Lyle was still on Earth and on Rein's warship, when the Zerg found Alice and yelled for the same race to retreat, Lyle also heard Through such voices, the voices of the bugs, he can even understand the language of those bugs and know the meaning of their words.

But that was just a special case, and he never heard the weird sound made by the bugs again, and when Lyle reached the distant star, it was only Scarbilly who used his special perception system to detect it earlier. The presence of bugs, not the sound Lyle heard first.

I don't know what the principle is. Anyway, Lyle heard the hissing and howling of these bugs again today when they were running around inside the base. Lyle could even vaguely perceive the meaning of these bugs' voices , Lyall understood that these bugs were roaring "eat" and other implied meanings.

This also made Lyle realize that these damned horrible bugs, they actually came in!

Enter this seemingly impenetrable fortress, enter this mythical puppet master academy!

A fight seemed inevitable, and Lairton felt a little tired at the moment. He felt like he was fighting with these damn bugs all the way to this day. He knew exactly how terrible these things were, even if the people around him Scar seems to be able to kill these bugs easily, but if Lyle is not a puppeteer and does not have Scar as a puppet, Lyle would have died long ago.

The threat of death caused many people in the base to become turbulent. Some people still didn't understand what happened, but they didn't dare to walk around after listening to the broadcast, so they had to wait in their rooms.

Here Lyle also waited in his room, but after waiting for a while, he couldn't bear it anymore, because he heard the sound of one of the bugs getting closer, and the speed of that bug was so fast that he seemed to be wearing After passing through the defense lines inside the base one by one, they came to the dormitory area on the side of Lyle and others in a dignified manner.
