Chapter 261: Royal Capital Knights, Dwarf Elf, Artificial Intelligence, Demolition Operation (Two in One)
Chapter 261 Royal Capital Knights, Dwarves/Elves, Artificial Intelligence, Demolition Operation (two in one)
Shortly after.
Deep in the desert southeast of Night City.
The frontline base under the optical camouflage canopy is "only" the size of a small town as a whole, and the number of personnel is far less than that of the frontline base located on Harvest Star.
At this time, a group of elite troops with the appearance of knights and helmets decorated with manes were riding on magnetic levitation military trucks, passing through the 41 x 41 meter space door one by one, which emitted a faint silver light.
The individual equipment of this group of knights is obviously much more sophisticated than those of quick response, emergency countermeasures, and orbital airborne.
They wear an improved version of the McP Power Armor, which is mainly painted in black and silver-white paint, and is matched with a large amount of yellow.
The weapon he is holding is also the latest hard-light firearm developed by Atlas.
Howl~!
Suddenly, more than ten "Gryphons" raised their heads and let out a deep roar after passing through the space door.
Just like the giant dragon Nilenhog, the bodies and wings of these dozen griffins are covered with protective clothing and armor, and there are also plasma cannons or rotating Gauss cannons on their backs.
Characteristics such as griffins and knights indicate that they are the troops directly under the original body Dorn——
Knights of the Royal Capital of Terraira.
Since Dorn assumed the position of governor of Terraira and obtained the authority to form direct troops, he began to personally select experienced human elites stationed in Sand Sea Town and southern border towns, as well as the original knights. veteran.
For example, the border guards who are responsible for facing off against Moido believers and orcs are guaranteed by their superficial combat experience and physical fitness, as well as their inner firmness and unyielding will.
After all, if these border guards waver, they will be affected by Chaos immediately until they fall.
In fact, the vast majority of the second batch of Human Fist adapters selected by Aoi were descendants of the Frontier Guardsmen.
Some of them are due to the insufficient population in their hometown. At the age of ten, they began to help adults guard the city wall to defend against the orcs and believers.
Only when the supply of troops is guaranteed can corruption and rebellion be avoided to the greatest extent possible.
As for the gryphons, which are the symbol of the Knights, the scientific research team of the Terraira branch has also been equipped with exclusive armor and protective clothing to improve their survival rate and lethality on different battlefields.
Although the power armor model of the members of the Royal Capital Knights is the MacPoo used by the AECS (Emergency Countermeasures) special formation, the production base is not the Accra campus, but the dwarf manufacturing facility in the Royal Capital of Terraira.
Dorn can place an order for MacPure to the Accra Park, but the delivery time can be as short as one year or as long as three years, making Dorn choose to be "self-reliant."
Relying on the rich local resources of Terraira and the dwarves who are good at forging and research, he serves as the main member of the engineering department of the Terraira branch, thereby realizing a completely independent universe after the "Edge of Tomorrow" that Guilliman was responsible for.
In addition, the Dwarf Manufacturing Factory also upgraded the McBu power armor.
For example, the outer armor is made of dwarf stainless steel, which can effectively resist live ammunition and energy attacks.
To be honest, if Guilliman or Dorn had any "ideas", they could definitely privately cultivate more direct troops and loyal cronies to secretly break away from Atlas's "control".
As the biological sons of the owner of Atlas, Guilliman and Dorn have no such small thoughts at all, but this does not prevent other brothers from being wary of these two, that is -
Supervise every move of "Edge of Tomorrow" and Tyrela on behalf of his father.
You must know the "difference between closeness and distance" between the original bodies. For example, Guilliman, Sanguinius and Leon have a relatively strong relationship, and they also consider themselves the "big brothers" of all the original bodies.
Horus and Magnus, Dorn and Vulkan, Fulgrim, Angron and Riemann, as well as Mortarion and Corax, all have their own "small groups".
The brothers of the original body who came at the same time naturally have a closer relationship.
For example, Dorn and Vulkan had experienced actions similar to "dungeon adventures" together, and the time when they finally fought side by side with their father was their most beautiful memory.
Therefore, Vulkan, who is still fighting in the "Halo" universe with his father, will not have any defense against Dorne at all.
As for the one with the highest evaluation among all the primarchs, it was Horus who took the initiative to make friends with various brothers.
No matter how busy he is with things at hand, Horus will deliver the prepared gifts to each brother on his birthday (Advent) through the company's in-house express service.
In fact, the harmony between the original body and the original body was maintained because in addition to Sui Yang's teachings to them, there was also Sui Yang's secret adjustment and the "deterrence" of his father.
At this stage, Sui Yang's physical strength alone is enough to "beat up" all the original bodies in a literal sense.
at this time.
Boom, boom——
The unique heavy footsteps of the magnetic boots were heard near the space door.
Dorn, wearing mithril power armor and carrying a storm sword, also set foot in the "Cyberpunk 2077" universe.
"Um"
Dorn, who did not close his helmet, could not help but frown as he sensed that the humans in this universe were full of jealousy, hatred, chaos and other emotions.
In terms of psychic talent, he is in the same league as Guilliman.
That is, the "poor student" in the ranks of the original body.
But this does not mean that he is completely insensitive to psychic powers. On the contrary, after his father's teachings and various events on Terraira, Dorn's ability to perceive negative emotions has been further improved.
After closing his eyes slightly and sensing carefully, he confirmed that there was no dirty "breath" of subspace nearby.
"What's wrong?"
Seeing that Dorn's behavior was a little unusual, Aoyi, who had also just passed through the space gate, took the initiative to ask.
Hearing this, he turned slightly sideways, looked at the female elf who was still tall and graceful even though she was wearing armor, and said:
"It's okay, don't worry."
With that said, Dorn walked towards the tarmac in the distance and warned:
"There is also the matter of troop transfer and deployment. I will leave it to you to take full responsibility for the time being. I need to "demolish" it. By the way, I can tell those garbage in the Zero-Nine Universe that control resources and squeeze the blood of the people what the real cross-border giants are. ”
After saying that, Dorn left the space door directly.
"Aoyi takes orders."
Aoyi, who was more traditional, bowed his back and saluted Dorn.
Then, she headed in the opposite direction to Dorne, apparently preparing to go to the command building to have face-to-face discussions with Price, the person in charge of the forward base.
And before Aoi could go far, another maglev military truck slowly passed through the space gate.
But the passengers are not the Knights of the Royal Capital, but a group of elves who "travel lightly".
Its combat uniforms and armor are like the early concealment equipment of the rapid reaction force, and there are no mechanical skeletons to provide assistance such as strength and speed.
They are the "elven veterans" of the Kingdom of Lothrian who cooperate deeply with humans, namely the Night Owl Commandos.
Each one is close to a thousand years old.
Due to their special physique, if equipped with mechanical skeletons, it would actually affect the actions and combat of this group of elven veterans.
The Royal Capital Knights are responsible for frontal confrontation, while the Night Owl Commando specializes in guerrilla warfare, infiltration and harassment behind enemy lines.
Although the elves disdain assassination, if assassinating one person can save many people in their own party, Night Owl will still consider the black operation of surprise beheading.
——
soon.
A Luna transport boat slowly took off and drove out of the optical camouflage canopy. The pilot did not turn on the stealth mode and headed northwest quickly.
And in the cabin with the door open;
Dorn stood at the end of the cabin, overlooking the empty desert.
Beep-beep-.
At this time, when he heard the holographic communication reminder from the power armor, Dorn took back his mind and used his voice to control and connect the communication.
Then, the power armor projected several blue rays and "scanned" Serin's image in front of him.
After the image was formed, Serin said directly:
“Sir, please authorize us to disclose to all the residents of Night City that Atlas is a giant military-industrial complex involved in the multiverse.
At the same time, I also ask for your permission to upload the company's battle video, as well as some height and weight data of the boss and the original bodies on the official website of the branch of Zero-Nine Universe. "
Serin paused at this point, and Donne said:
"continue."
"Yes." Seeing that Dorn had no objection, Serin continued:
"Take Arasaka as an example of the local giants in Universe 09. Their owner, Saburo Arasaka, intends to resurrect militarism.
The remaining giant companies are more interested in profits and resources, and cannot tolerate the 09 Branch being based in Night City, so it is the best solution for us to take the initiative to start the fifth corporate war on the earth.
And when you, sir, go to Arasaka Tower alone and deal with all hostile targets, I will conduct a live broadcast throughout the city and mold you into a "living legend."
The local residents of Night City seem to appreciate humans who have the courage to resist giant corporations. "
"Living legend. Haha." Dorn smiled and replied:
"Selin, don't forget that I am also a member of a giant company, not to mention that my father is also the boss of a giant company."
"It doesn't matter, I can control public opinion." Serin still explained in an indifferent voice:
“The fundamental purpose of conducting the entire live broadcast is to inspire people with a spirit of resistance to unite.
At the same time, it was also to make those people realize that Arasaka and Juqi were vulnerable to Atlas. If they dared to resist Atlas, they would face the same fate.
Although this approach will deepen the local residents' first impression that we are also "evil people", based on my analysis of the boss's behavioral logic, I can judge that the boss will not veto the proposal.
As long as it helps human beings develop rapidly and become stronger, and increases human life index, then there is no right or wrong. "
"Okay, your application is approved." Dorn nodded lightly.
"Yes." Serin also nodded and added:
“And sir, if possible, make your movements, movements and attacks as photogenic as possible.
In layman's terms, I want you to go as slowly as possible. "
"You are becoming more and more human, Celine." Dawn teased with a smile, "Don't worry, I will pay attention."
"Thank you for your understanding, sir, and I wish you a happy hunting."
After saying this, Serin ended the holographic communication on her own initiative, causing her image to dissipate.
"."
Dorn, on the other hand, looked through the open hatch to the outskirts of Night City, where there were already human activities, and fell into deep thought.
Of course, he was not thinking about the subsequent "demolition operation", but was recalling the content of Serin's words.
The ridicule of "becoming more and more like humans" seems to no longer be a casual remark of his.
Although they also have two intelligent AIs cultivated according to UNSC technology in Terra, they will never take the initiative to propose to their direct superiors unless they have obtained the authority, and they will give feasible solutions.
However, Serin is not like this.
It seems that after the company obtained the ownership of Shield World 0459 and the assistance of Tranquil Riverbank, the research progress of artificial intelligence has increased dramatically.
'Why not find a time to remind my father of the hidden dangers of artificial intelligence? '
Dorn thought.
But soon, he shook his head lightly and no longer considered the possibility of "rebellion" of artificial intelligence.
After all, his father does not need to be reminded, and artificial intelligence is an indispensable part for humans to continue to accelerate development and consolidate their territory.
He and Vulkan, as well as a group of Primarch brothers, just need to do their own jobs.
At this moment;
The scenery under his feet is no longer the suburbs, but the Night City where prosperity and backwardness, wealth and poverty coexist.
Boom. Boom!
Da. Da. Da
The explosions and gunshots "radiated" from Westbrook to the entire city.
And the carrier-based aircraft formation composed of white-legged falcons and ghost fighters would sometimes "pass by" the Luna transport boat, and then use machine guns and small-yield missiles to help the company's troops deal with more difficult guys.
With Dorn's original vision, he could easily capture the details of the ground battle.
For example, Leroya, who has obvious characteristics such as silver hair and a giant sword, can deal with those difficult Arasaka special forces even without the help of synths.
And the advance team members such as Soap, Xiaoqiang, and Ghost, who are wearing advanced combat suits (nano suits), make the branch building stand firm and deal with the fish that slip through the net very efficiently.
Suddenly;
"Sir." The pilot's reminder also resounded in the communication at the right time, saying:
"There are still thirty seconds to arrive at the designated location, please be ready."
Hearing this.
Dorn just replied "OK" and waited patiently for a while.
Then, the Arasaka Tower, which was all black and had a clear company logo, appeared within his sight.
On the square in front of the main entrance of the Arasaka Tower, a large number of security forces affiliated with Arasaka had gathered, and there were even many NCPD police officers, and suspended airships equipped with machine guns and missile racks.
It seems that the person in charge of Arasaka in Night City did not expect that it was easy to eliminate dissidents and increase the right to speak within the company, but it turned into a war that could ignite the world.
Swish-swish-!
At this time, the air-to-air missiles launched by the suspended airship rushed towards the Luna transport boat.
Bang bang bang!
But the Luna transport boat did not change its route at all, and only ejected a large number of decoy drones to block the opponent's first round of attacks.
Seeing this, Dorn jumped down directly and "smashed" towards the center of the square.
