When AI intelligent people meet fierce gods

Facing the officer's pursuit of responsibility, Giovanni replied somewhat hesitantly: "Actually, they are quite strong..."

"Strong? Who are they?"

Commander Todd snorted coldly, pulled the host who was hiding behind the crowd to his side, and asked mockingly: "Come on! Tell me yourself, what do you do?"

Host: "...I'm a show host."

Commander Todd: "..."

He seemed to be choked by the answer, and he couldn't hold back anymore. He yelled at Giovanni, "Why did you bring a show host here? Are you making a reality show?"

Giovanni shrank his head and dared not speak, but the host who was held by Todd curled his lips unhappily: "We have so many people here, but you still want to ask me? You are really kind." Eyesight, picked me, a waste who knows nothing, at a glance."

Commander Todd frowned suddenly, and pushed the host out of his hand: "Enough! Stop messing around... This survivor base really can't support it anymore!"

"There are only a few dozen of us remaining soldiers, but there are hundreds of survivors in the base. Each of them needs food and medicine! The rest of the soldiers have already dispatched to find supplies, but you are the only one who came here empty-handed. return to..."

He pointed at the tip of Giovanni's nose with his finger, and his tone was full of disappointment: "If you are afraid of death, just stay here honestly and look after your house. I don't need cowards in my team! I will go outside to search for supplies myself..."

"Mr. Commander, please calm down." Seeing that he was getting more and more agitated, Yi Qi immediately stepped forward, trying to stop him from leaving.

However, Commander Todd, whose anger and spirit were all on the verge of eruption, suddenly found someone approaching him rapidly. He immediately tensed up, and reflexively pulled out his pistol: "Stop, stranger!"

The atmosphere at the scene suddenly became tense,

In the midst of this flash, a clear gunshot was suddenly heard.

"boom!"

The gun went off.

Commander Todd originally wanted to take out a gun to threaten, but he never expected that the gun would go off!

What's more, he didn't expect that the handsome boy on the opposite side would catch the shot bullet with a casual lift.

Seeing the golden bullet still smelling of gunpowder being caught between two slender fingers with well-defined knuckles, he was stunned in place, dumbfounded and didn't know how to react.

Yi Qi let go of his fingers, let the bullet fall gently on the ground, and then asked calmly, "Can we have a good talk now?"

Commander Todd was stunned for a while, then lowered his head dejectedly, and finally calmed down after being agitated all the time: "What do you want to talk about?"

……

"The history and past of Ululun? You just want to know about this?"

Commander Todd, who had calmed down, sat cross-legged on the ground without hesitation, with a sense of frustration all over his body.

Ever since he learned that the human alliance had been defeated by X, and there would no longer be a large force to rescue them survivors, he became decadent at a speed visible to the naked eye, and even the last ray of hope in his eyes was extinguished.

"Perhaps you want to know, how did the small country of Ululun get to where it is today, and how it was manipulated by a mastermind behind the scenes?"

Commander Todd solemnly took out a nearly burnt cigarette butt from his arms, put it on the tip of his nose and sniffed it, then lit it, held it in his mouth, and gradually recalled the the past.

"This incident has been going away for decades, and there have been some signs of symptoms, but no one noticed these clues at the time."

"At that time, I was a little boy, just immersed in the new mechanical toys suddenly launched by the country, and naturally I didn't notice any clues."

"The grown-ups didn't realize that Ululun suddenly began to cooperate with the Stirridge family in Europe. More and more foreign faces appeared in the government, and the president on the table kept changing."

"The man behind the scenes is manipulating everything, using his mechanical parasite to control the brains of government officials to ensure that no one will betray."

"After a long period of time like this, when he completely controlled the entire government, he began to attack the army and the people."

"At that time, I was young and had just joined the army, but I was surprised to find that the colleagues around me were always frequently transferred. Some close comrades in arms often disappeared without a trace."

"When I go home occasionally to visit relatives, I can always find relatives and friends I haven't seen for a while, and suddenly they become strange, and their words and deeds are very strange, as if they are a different person."

"Even the neighbors in my hometown suddenly like wearing hats."

"Many people have been wearing a tall top hat on their heads, no matter it is windy or rainy, they have never seen them take it off, as if they are covering the top of their heads."

"After a long time, my rank was gradually promoted to lieutenant, but there were fewer and fewer soldiers around me. The soldiers were always transferred to distant places by their superiors, and I never heard from them again."

"But Ululun is an out-and-out small country, with a population of only a few hundred thousand at most, and a very small country. The main city even has only one capital... Where can those soldiers be transferred?"

"And my relatives and friends...they have become complete strangers, I don't know them at all!"

"The whole country is becoming more and more closed, and ordinary people can hardly communicate with the outside world."

"At that time, I had already noticed some clues, so I took root in the army from then on, and I never went home to visit my relatives. I only left some trustworthy and confidant soldiers by my side."

"But the calm on the outside of the mask is the last illusion... Finally one day, the devil peeled off the painted skin, revealing its ferocious minions."

Speaking of this, Commander Todd couldn't help but hugged his head, as if recalling some horrible scene, a tough man was trembling in horror at this time, and he didn't even notice that the cigarette butt in his mouth had fallen out.

"Mechanical bugs, there are mechanical bugs everywhere, like parasites, living and adsorbing on the human brain..."

"That devil has carefully planned for decades, and finally completely controlled the entire country! Whether it is the president, officials, soldiers or civilians, everyone has a damn parasite attached to their heads!"

"Only a few highly vigilant humans still have free will, and I am one of them."

"But when I realized that things were getting out of control, I once wanted to take dozens of soldiers under my command, snatch armored vehicles and flee abroad. After all, Ulurun is a very small country, and we have great hopes of escaping."

"But the devil's defenses are more stringent than I imagined. The whole country is full of its eyeliner."

"Our team fled to the edge of the city at best, and we couldn't go any further. We had to abandon all our belongings and hide in an emergency."

"In the end, my soldiers and I took root in this abandoned chemical plant, established a survivor base, and rescued some ordinary people who were lucky enough not to be controlled everywhere, and have been lingering until today."

Commander Todd fumbled on the ground, picked up the cigarette butt that was about to go out, put it in his mouth again, and took a deep breath, with a melancholy expression on his face: "But that's all there is to it." .”

"The devil sent those manipulated humans into the monster factory. Nowadays, there are fewer and fewer living people outside, but our base can't even support itself... Maybe the end of mankind is really coming."

He exhaled a puff of smoke and smiled wryly.

But Yiqi grasped the key words keenly: "Monster Factory?"

Commander Todd puffed out another puff of smoke: "The monster factory, as the name suggests, is the place where monsters are made."

"We found that in a research base at the southernmost tip of the city, countless manipulated humans would actively walk into it, and then one after another, cruel and bloodthirsty monsters poured out and ran rampant on the streets... We generally call it a monster factory."

Yiqi looked condensed, and asked: "All the controlled humans in Ululun have been made into monsters?"

Commander Todd raised his head and thought for a while, then said uncertainly: "Maybe not all of them, I have only seen adults walk into the monster factory, but I have never seen minors walk into it... That devil, it looks like It’s about treating adults and children differently.”

"Since Ululun was turned upside down, the devil has gathered all the children in the country, and I don't know where to hide them. Anyway, I have never seen a figure belonging to a child since then."

"X didn't turn children into monsters, at most they used them as hostage threats, but it never directly attacked minors..."

Yiqi's expression became more and more unpredictable, and he muttered to himself: "But... why? It obviously doesn't cherish the lives of children, unless..."

Unless, it's not that I don't want to, but I can't!

As if thinking of something, Yi Qi's eyes suddenly lit up.

He pulled the dejected Todd up from the ground, and said anxiously, "Cheer up, Mr. Commander, our time is running out!"

Todd looked up blankly: "Huh?"

Yi Qi said very seriously: "At a critical moment, you are willing to rescue ordinary people. Even when the base is overwhelmed, you have not given up on anyone, including the old, weak, sick and disabled."

"Even when you scolded the soldiers loudly just now, you didn't force the soldiers to go out to carry out the mission, but chose to go out to search for supplies by yourself... In summary, you are actually an excellent leader who is absolutely responsible! It's just that you have a bad temper It's a bit more irritable, with a bit of acrimony, and it's easy to be misunderstood."

Todd, who was suddenly praised, was at a loss at this moment: "But, there is no hope... This survivor base can't last for a few days..."

"There is no need to hold on any longer, we will take you away today!"

Yi Qi pressed his shoulders and made a firm promise: "I need you and your soldiers to assist us one last time and take us to find the monster factory and the missing children."

"I will destroy that inhumane factory, take away all survivors and children, and take you out of Ululun."

Listening to his loud promise, Todd froze in place, his expression changed, as if he was hesitating whether to believe him or not.

After a long time, as if he felt that he had nothing to lose, the commander, who was carrying all the heavy burdens, gave birth to a glimmer of hope in despair, and looked at the white-haired young man in front of him with hot eyes.

He let out a breath slowly, and said softly: "I know the address of the monster factory, but I don't know where the children who disappeared are now locked up..."

"A-actually... I know where they are!"

No one could have imagined that at this critical moment, the host, who had been hiding behind the crowd with his neck shrunk, suddenly raised his hand tremblingly, and whispered, "I know where the children are."

"I used to be a member of the Stirridge family, and was sent to Ululun as an important backbone. Before I was manipulated by the mechanical parasites, I saw with my own eyes those children who were hidden...they It's in an underground building, which is actually one with the monster factory."

He whispered the key information, and after he finished speaking, he looked at Yi Qi eagerly: "Savior, is this information useful? Can I, a waste of atonement, make a little contribution to preventing the destruction of mankind? Even the smallest contribute?"

His voice trembled, but he looked at Yiqi very devoutly.

Yi Qi watched him gently, stepped forward, patted him heavily on the shoulder, and sincerely thanked him: "Thank you! Your news is very timely, you are not trash, don't underestimate yourself."

The host was suddenly surprised and happy, the expression on his face was full of happiness, and he almost cried out on the spot.

Commander Todd looked at everything in front of him, sat up slowly, threw away the cigarette butt in his mouth, and rearranged his military uniform.

"In that case... I am willing to do my last bit for the people of my country."

He solemnly raised his hands to salute Yiqi: "From this moment on, my soldiers and I will obey your command!"

Yi Qi looked at Todd, and then at his companion beside him.

Finally, he slowly glanced at the tortured and lingering humans in the survivor base.

"You will live, and hope will last forever!"

He assures everyone.
