Chapter 775 Lonely Army
This wave of self-destruction attacks directly reduced the number of Gray Screen troops by more than 20%, and among the dozen or so new-type modified people who were killed by the self-explosion, they also included the barrier-capable modified people that Abel specially used to attack difficulties. Transform people in the gravity field.
Since their special abilities lasted for a short time and had a long cooldown, Abel wanted to save them to deal with the fortress, so he did not give the order to use the abilities immediately. When he realized that the opponent was a self-destructor, everything was in trouble. It's too late.
This is the disadvantage of this kind of puppet army. If these new types of modified people have complete self-awareness, they can take countermeasures in time when the first self-destruction soldier detonates explosives. However, the control rights of these modified people All of them are in the hands of Abel, especially the "big moves" with a long cooling time such as special abilities, and they do not have their own powers.
"Retreat! Retreat! Secure the defense line!" Abel's face was full of panic. He didn't even notice the weapons of the fallen rebels scattered on the ground - these new types of modified humans could have been picked up by his command. Weapons were used to fight back. Unlike Basaka, they had the ability to use firearms. But at this time, Abel was in a state of confusion. He only knew how to blindly let his cyborgs retreat to widen the distance between them and the enemy.
The Gray Screen troops pulled back hundreds of meters in one breath. Only then did Abel let the new transformation people pick up the firearms on the ground and shoot at the second batch of self-destruction soldiers that rushed up.
These self-destruction soldiers had little protection, and they were all swept away in an instant. But at this moment, a burst of intensive gunfire suddenly sounded from behind the gray curtain troops——
"Great, our reinforcements are here!" Hearing the gunshots from behind, Abel's face showed a hint of joy. However, just as his smile appeared, it suddenly solidified - the gunshots did come from behind, but why? Will there be a "ding ding ding" sound from your own power armor?
Got yourself shot? How could the bullets of the rebels pass through their own men and hit themselves? Wait...the direction of this bullet...
Abel controlled the power armor somewhat stiffly and turned around. He saw a large number of railway rebels appearing behind the gray curtain troops, numbering in the thousands. These rebels directly blocked Abel's retreat and completely blocked them. Still shooting while advancing towards the position of the gray curtain troops.
"Rebels?! Why did the rebels appear behind us? Why?!" Abel shouted hysterically. He completely forgot that when he rushed all the way in, there were several refuges occupied by the rebels along the way. There was no cleaning, and the metal doors of these shelters were tightly closed, completely unable to escape. Naturally, Abel would not take the initiative to attack these shelters.
The military achievement of occupying a small refuge is far less than the achievement of marching all the way and taking the rebel headquarters first. And who knows how many rebels are left in these refuges? What if there are only a dozen or so small refuges? Fish and shrimp, wasting a lot of time for these people, it's not worth it.
In Abel's eyes, these "leftovers" could just be left to the alliance troops behind him to clean up, but he did not expect that at this time, these "leftovers" would actually take the initiative to come out of the shelter. Dumplings were made for him and his gray troops.
When engaging in positional warfare, which mainly focused on long-distance firefights, the weakness of the Gray Screen troops was suddenly magnified. Although the marksmanship of the new cyborgs could definitely be considered top-notch, the problem was that Their number is really too small!
The firepower of more than 40 people was completely unable to stop the resistance attack, especially since Abel had to divide the more than 40 people into two groups and use them to resist the resistance forces from the front and rear directions -
"Support! This is the Gray Screen Troops! We are surrounded on section F13, asking for support!" After hesitating for a while, Abel finally saw a Cyborg being swept away by the intense firepower of the rebels. It was a message to the Consortium Alliance for help.
However, there was only a noise in the communicator.
The communication channel was blocked by the enemy at some point. The Railway Resistance Army obviously did not have this ability. This time, it was the forces behind them that took action - the performance of Abel's unit was indeed too impressive. , This also made the other party cruel, and set up such a trick, intending to eat them completely.
The gray curtain army... has really become a lone army at this moment.

Surface, ruins of LS City.
"I almost understand it... It's just, what do you want me to do when you find me here?"
Qi Lin's state was already very relaxed compared to the beginning. He was sitting cross-legged on the bed, holding an assault rifle in one hand and an energy bar in the other. He was eating and talking to the mastermind.
After learning that the other party was the mastermind at first, Qi Lin was also full of vigilance, but soon he discovered that the mastermind did not seem to be so difficult to communicate with. The other party did not look like a cold machine at all, but more like a human being... at least , compared to some people, such things as human nature are more reflected in this super AI.
"Shut me down. Only in this way can we prevent the implementation of the utopian plan and avoid the war between the human 'organization' and the other me..."
"Poof -" Qi Lin suddenly sprayed out the crushed peanuts and chocolate in his mouth - shutting down the main brain. It's simple to say, but you must know that this "simple" thing is something that the "organization" has been working hard for. , and the ultimate goal that has not made much progress so far. Even if Qi Lin is expanding, it is impossible to compare himself with the entire organization.
Is it possible for him alone to complete a task that cannot be accomplished even with the strength of the organization?
"too difficult……"
"No, it's not difficult. You just need to destroy my main control chip. Due to the existence of the 'First Law' and the 'Law of Self-Protection', I cannot activate the self-destruct program. Moreover, even if I activate the self-destruction program, If you destroy the program, you will be stopped by another me."
This so-called "law of self-protection" can be said to be the second law after the "first law". Just like a devout Christian, the mastermind will not conflict with the "first law". "Suicide" is allowed because once the mastermind is lost, human refuges will lose control. Although this may not necessarily lead to the demise of mankind, it will paralyze refuges around the world and a large number of people will die. Due to lack of oxygen, severe cold, hunger and radiation...
Without the Mastermind, no more than one-tenth of the human population could survive... or even less.
It's very uncomfortable...I won't tell you the reason for the discomfort. Everyone should know it. I hope IG and EDG can make it to the end.
