Chapter 2958 (=゜ω゜)ノETO is going to do something wrong again
In the Three-Body game, in that virtual space that is based on darkness and chaos and seems to be modeled on a certain area of ​​the galaxy where the Three-Body civilization is located, there are huge sky-like real-time or non-real-time pictures.
is being played.
And among them, the protagonists in those pictures are all a certain terrible little girl wall-facer—Anne Hastur!
That’s right!
ETO started the online party again today!
Then, of course, the theme of their meeting was still Anne.
Because, just a few hours ago, they received a report from Tomoko, saying that the terrible and hateful little girl Wall Facer, the target they had repeatedly assassinated but failed to obtain, actually left her lair on her own initiative, and started to
Strutting around on the streets of a nearby city and wandering around unscrupulously?
The scenes being played by Tomoko are as follows:
"What's the rush?"
(˙o˙)
"Anyway, those ETO idiots can't kill me, so let's just go shopping for a while!"
()
"If they want to come, just come. They are here now. Tomoko must have told them the coordinates of this place. Why didn't they see them coming?"
()
"Then let them continue the assassination, so they don't take those useless fools seriously!"
o(^｀)o
"Those ETOs are just a bunch of useless little bugs. They can't even deal with such a little girl. They still want to eliminate human tyranny? Just dream!"
(ˉ▽￣~)Cut~~
“I don’t know if the world belongs to Trisolaris, but it definitely doesn’t belong to ETO, because they are really too stupid!”
╮(╯▽╰)╭
"Idiots don't deserve to own the world!"
(-)
"Those keyboard warriors are even less afraid. There are no idiots from ETO to instigate you. Look, they are standing here. They don't even dare to come and protest when they see it!"
()σ
"What's the use of keyboard warriors? The stronger their combat effectiveness is on the Internet, the weaker their offline combat effectiveness..."
○(^ plate^)っ
"Damn it! I've been shopping around for a long time, why don't those bad guys from ETO come? They are really more useless than I thought!"
()
"It's getting dark now. Forget it, we're here for today. Let's go back first. The food outside is not very tasty..."
(｀)
"Hmph! Are you going to come out tomorrow to see if those ETO bad guys are really so useless that even if you give them a chance, it will be useless?"
o(*｀ー)o
Just like this, in this dark and chaotic cyber virtual space, a large group of ETO remnants who couldn't see each other's faces, figures, or even male and female were silently watching Tomoko play for them about a terrible little girl who ran away as a wall-facer.
The images of wandering around a certain city and taunting them in the street that ETO is a bunch of trash made them feel very uncomfortable.
Seeing the hateful expression on that little girl's face and listening to the harsh and nakedly mocking words she yelled at them, it was absolutely impossible for the ETO members present to say that they were not angry, angry, and wanted to get rid of the situation quickly.
of!
But, they really can’t do it!
then……
"..."
"..."
"..."
"..."
"..."
"..."
Something different from the previous times happened: now, after several failed assassinations, although they didn't want to admit it, they seemed to have to recognize the fact and know and admit that terrible little girl.
Wallfacers are really difficult to deal with.
Therefore, now they are no longer clamoring and hysterically shouting and cursing like before, or they are crying and clamoring for the organization to immediately send out killers to eradicate the hateful little girl wall-facer.
"..."
"..."
"..."
"..."
"..."
Anyway, at this moment, most of them are just watching the little girl wall-facer silently with the leaders of their Earth Trisolaran organization, watching the other party mocking their ETO as much as they can.
One by one, they stood silently looking at each other. Some people were just whispering to each other. No one dared to shout out loud, and no one dared to clamor to personally carry out the assassination operation.
and related tasks.
After all, they launched five rounds of assassination plans just for that little girl, from the first serial assassination to the second sniper attack, then the third sneak assassination with a flying blade, and the fourth instigation.
Protests, suicide bombs, and finally the fifth biological poison... But in the end, they all failed. Not many people who participated in them came back. The casualty rate was simply appalling.
Moreover, forgetting the failure, the key is that the hundreds of elite field personnel they invested and the thousands of logistics and scientific researchers who were implicated have also been picked out by the PDC. Now those people have not been arrested.
Even if he is executed, or is still detained for interrogation, the loss is not small!
You must know that after the PDC launched "Operation Guzheng" to attack their "Judgment Day", causing the collective death of leader Mike Evans and a large number of elite members of the Adventist organization, their ETO's current organizational mobilization capabilities and the number of organizational members have been reduced.
As a result, there has been a sharp decline, and it can almost be said that it has reached its lowest point. It has not recovered to this day. Therefore, the number of elite members who can perform field operations has really become less and less, so they have to prepare for the next execution.
Begin to become more cautious before taking action.
"..."
"..."
"..."
"..."
And similarly, in this three-body game, at the forefront of the ETO crowd, several members of the seven-person core leadership group including 'Qin Shihuang' were also there, and like some ETO members, they were also stealing from above.
They were whispering, not knowing what opinions they were discussing or exchanging.
Seeing that the 'Qin Shihuang' and other seven core leaders did not express any opinions, many people in the ETO crowd finally began to discuss it a little loudly and angrily.
"How dare you tease us like that, that damn yellow-haired girl!"
"Damn it!"
"Did you all just hear that?"
"She said she would go back tomorrow. I really want to send someone to kill her with one shot!"
"I don't believe it. Is it really that difficult to eliminate her?"
"Calm down, Pharaoh... don't play with fire! She may be cooperating with the PDC to test or lure us into action. We have to outsmart her rather than act blindly."
"Although everyone knows that she is provoking the generals and trying to get us into chaos, her arrogance is really unbearable!"
"Isn't it?"
"Looking at her proud face, it's really disgusting!"
"it's useless……"
"Everyone, a large number of PDC agents appeared in the towns around the military base some time ago. Some of our organization members and peripheral members who were ordered to lurk nearby were killed by the other side. If we send people there now, it is estimated that nine out of ten people will be in vain.
Death?"
"That's right!"
"We are not afraid of death, but we should not waste precious manpower and material resources on actions that are destined to fail."
"But!"
"Seeing how arrogant she is, can't we poison her again?"
"As you just saw, she clamored to go shopping tomorrow. Maybe that's our opportunity?"
"Opportunity? Ha!"
"It's useless. Now that the invisibility cloak technology and active protein nanorobot technology are in the hands of the PDC, the technicians and factories responsible for production have been taken over. We don't have raw materials and scientific researchers for the time being. How are we going to poison them?"
?”
"Then use other poison!"
"No, ordinary cyanide is definitely useless and will be detected!"
"Everyone, the key point now is that the 'lord' has become more and more dissatisfied with us, and some of the technologies that were originally planned to be given have now become hesitant."
"If we continue to fail, our behavior of capitalizing on the enemy will probably prevent us from obtaining any more technology."
"What can we do?"
"Just watch her mocking and scolding us?"
"Anyway!"
"We can't be led by her. We must formulate a more thorough plan. Next time, we must be absolutely sure before we take action. We must hit it with one strike?"
"That's right!"
"Although she seems to enjoy this kind of game, we can't keep playing with her like this. It's too passive."
"really!"
"Sometimes, not responding is the biggest counterattack. Just let her go for a while."
"However, we should remember her provocation!"
"Ugh!"
"She is very cunning. Should I be like a lion on the African savannah, quietly observing the prey and waiting for the best moment to arrive?"
"Perhaps we can use her arrogance to set up a trap?"
"Then how do you set it up?"
"Well..."
"Stop doing this and that, stay put for the time being and strengthen intelligence collection and analysis. At the same time, we must also be alert to the movements of the PDC and don't fall into the traps they have laid."
"That's right!"
"What we are pursuing is the victory of the Three-Body Problem, not personal glory! Our forbearance today is for the glory of tomorrow, to eliminate human tyranny and welcome the arrival of the Lord!"
"cowardly……"
"??"
"Why, what do you have against the Lord?"
"No!"
"I don't know what your Lord is like, but I know what human beings are like. If I didn't know that human beings are hopeless, I might not necessarily join you."
"you……"
And just when the discussions among those ETO remnants gradually became louder, and began to develop into disputes and conflicts, and even the excitement of the past, finally, the quiet discussion of 'Qin Shihuang' and others on the stage ended.
Then the 'Qin Shihuang' also stood up and announced:
"Okay!"
"Everyone, please stop arguing. What everyone just said makes sense, but no matter what, we are all a team and need to comprehensively consider various factors."
"Besides..."
"A few of us have discussed and consulted with the Lord just now, and have reached a consensus. Next, we should continue to observe, stay vigilant, and at the same time strengthen internal connections and training to prepare for the next real battle?
"
"As for the issues we just discussed, I want to reiterate two points!"
"First, the assassination of the little girl is temporarily suspended, whether it is today or tomorrow, because we are too late in terms of time and preparation, so there is no need to say more."
"Second, the Lord has just given us a new mission and new technology!"
"Everyone!"
"The real battle is coming..."
As Qin Shihuang finished speaking, the lights at this virtual gathering point gradually dimmed. At the same time, the images played by Sophon that monitored Anne's wall-facer slowly disappeared, replaced by an unknown mysterious device.
huge pattern.
Seeing that pattern, the expressions of ETO members gradually changed from anger to calmness.
Although the eyes of many people still flashed with deep hatred and dissatisfaction towards the words and deeds of a certain bad little girl just now, they also knew that this game and confrontation did not happen overnight, and it was unrealistic for them to want to accomplish everything in one battle.
The real battle between the two sides is yet to come.
…
And just a few hours later, not long after the ETO remnants finished their discussion and left the virtual world, a call from the PDC headquarters went directly to the captain of Shi Qiang's security team.
"It's really terrible..."
"Who is this late at night?"
"Are you still going to let people sleep?"
Hearing the ringing of his mobile phone instead of the walkie-talkie inside their house, Shi Qiang, knowing that it was definitely not an emergency, complained and kicked off the quilt, then sat down on the soft mahogany bed that exuded a faint wood fragrance.
He got up, then rubbed his eyes in annoyance and grumbled, then took the vibrating mobile phone beside the bedside table into his hand.
You know, it's already three or four in the morning...
In view of the fact that a certain troubled little girl would not fall asleep until early in the morning, the security team, especially the captain of his team, Shi Qiang, had to stay with her until the other party stopped tossing and just followed the little girl who lived her life.
After his secretary, Ms. Luo, went back to his room to wash up and prepare to sleep, he was able to come back to wash up and rest. Calculating, he had just slept for less than an hour?
Therefore, he was woken up by a phone call after less than an hour of sleep. If he was in a good mood, he would be in trouble.
"!!"
"Oh, I'll go!"
But soon, Shi Qiang, who was just about to continue complaining and considering whether to reject the call, saw the name and related notes on the caller ID. He was excited, quickly cheered up, and clicked the green call button with a flattering smile.
road:
"Hello--"
"Director Kanter? It's me, Da Shi!"
"That's right!"
"Excuse me, what can I do for you?"
That's right, the caller was none other than Kanter, the deputy director of the PDC Strategic Planning Department whom he had met at the PDC headquarters on Verne Island. Of course, even if he was the deputy, he had to directly call him "department" when addressing him.
Chang', most of the twists and turns in the officialdom are like this. It's useless, but you must understand it.
"Uh-huh……"
"Nothing, really!"
"Although there is indeed a time zone difference, we have just finished our work and are just getting ready to go to bed. Your call came at the right time."
"real!"
"If you have anything to say, just tell me. I'll remember it!"
"oh--"
"Neutron jammer?"
"Don't worry, Annie has already gone to bed, and then we opened it. Normal calls will definitely not be eavesdropped by Tomoko."
"Uh-huh……"
"What?"
"Dr. Ding Yi and others are coming tomorrow?"
"A whole team?"
"no problem!"
"Of course there is no problem. We promise to do a good job in reception and security. Isn't this our job here!"
"Okay! Okay!"
"but……"
"Director, I suggest you come back at noon or afternoon?"
"ah!"
"I don't mean anything else. Aren't you afraid that Dr. Ding will get tired of waiting like last time? You know, Annie's life schedule is different from others..."
"Don't worry, I can save it!"
"OK!"
"Understood! No problem!"
"oh--"
"Anything else?"
"!!"
"What?"
"Did those scumbags from ETO get something good from the Trisolarans again?"
"Tsk tsk!"
"Those scumbags still won't give up?"
"What can't you do if you have that perseverance? Do you have to become a rapist?"
"ah……"
"Are you saying that they may launch a new round of attacks on Anne in the near future?"
"oh oh……"
"It's unlikely in the near future. They haven't built it yet?"
"But, what is that thing? Can our people lurking inside ETO get accurate information?"
"I don't know..."
"That's it..."
"Ah! It's nothing. We are fine here. As long as the other party doesn't get nuclear weapons and come here to detonate them, we won't have any big problems here!"
"rest assured!"
"After Dr. Ding and the others arrive, we will definitely step up our guard and not give those bastards from ETO any chance to take advantage of us!"
"I promise you!"
"well…"
"Do you have any other instructions?"
"OK!"
"I see……"
"goodbye."
Finally, after talking on the phone for more than ten minutes and understanding the relevant situation clearly, Shi Qiang slowly put the phone down from his ear and frowned at the hung up communication screen.
"..."
Then, after thinking about it, he dropped his cell phone and simply stopped sleeping. Instead, he grabbed his special cigarettes from the counter and took out one of them and lit it.
"call--"
Taking a sip, Shi Qiang allowed himself to calm down a little, and then his brain began to work at high speed.
There was no doubt that those cigarettes were obtained from the unlucky Dr. Luo Ji's room before. There were three of them. Since the other party was dormant, they would definitely not be used. Therefore, Shi Qiang himself smiled and accepted them at that time.
And just now, Kanter, the deputy director of the PDC Strategic Planning Department, called him overnight, mainly to explain two important things to him, which can be summed up as follows:
First, Dr. Ding Yi will lead a team tomorrow and will probably stay in their garden for a while. Although Director Kanter did not say it clearly, Shi Qiang knew that it was probably for the sake of 'quality and efficiency'
As for technical matters, it is estimated that the preliminary preparations are almost done now. Therefore, Director Kanter attaches great importance to it, so he personally called to explain that he must ensure the personal safety and confidentiality of Dr. Ding Yi's team, etc.
matter.
Second, intelligence shows that ETO has obtained a new gadget from their Trisolaris master. The specifics of what it is are not clear due to the low status of the intelligence personnel, but what is certain at present is that it is a technological creation, and there is a high probability that it is
It should be some kind of weapon, and it might be dangerous? Anyway, the other party asked them to be more vigilant on the phone.
As for the above two matters, tomorrow morning, PDC will have formal documents communicated through confidential channels. Then he can learn more specifically from the documents, and the reason why the other party is calling overnight is just to let him know.
It is very important to know the above two things, and then make sure that he does not make any mistakes.
Furthermore, the other party also said that the PDC will transfer a new team of about a hundred people for Captain Shi to dispatch, and at the same time, there will be another regiment of troops and equipment in the military restricted area?
Although Shi Qiang felt that it was not necessary, after all, ETO would mainly focus on assassination even if they obtained weapons, and it was impossible to attack them directly, but since it was the other party's good intention and arrangement, he just did not refuse it.
Anyway, in his opinion, with more manpower, it will be easier to arrange defense, and then, their team's personal rest time will be arranged more freely?
"..."
"call--!"
Unknowingly, he sat on the bedside, smoked half a cigarette and pondered for a while. After feeling that he was energetic enough, Shi Qiang picked up the walkie-talkie on the bedside table, pressed a call button and said:
"Dongguai! Dongguai!"
"I am Dong Yao!"
"Notice!"
"From now on, everyone will be on level one alert!"
"right!"
"The personnel directly implement the three-post rotation system. One team is on duty, one team is on standby, and one team is resting. There must be no mistakes!"
"Not enough staff?"
"rest assured!"
"Don't worry too much about manpower. New people will be coming tomorrow morning, a hundred people!"
"Don't ask, just execute it."
"in addition!"
"From now on, the neutron jammer will be turned on for me 24 hours a day and cannot be turned off!"
"Um!"
"Just say I said it!"
"Don't worry, I will go to Annie's place to explain and explain."
"besides!"
"Immediately send someone to the military base ahead and tell the regiment commander to tell him to have his people secretly increase their vigilance from now on!"
"What?"
"It's midnight now?"
"Don't I know?"
"Just execute the order. It is a soldier's bounden duty to obey orders. Even if he is asleep, you have to convey the order to him!"
"Okay, that's all for now."
"complete!"
"..."
"cough--"
Cursing and swearing, Shi Qiang finally explained the matter clearly. Then he threw the walkie-talkie back, looked at the time, and felt that everything that needed to be explained had been explained clearly. Shi Qiang first sighed, and then said seriously
He lay down on the bed all at once.
"This kind of day..."
"When will it be over?"
After staring at the exquisite beams and ceiling on the roof for a long time, he suddenly sighed quietly.
nature!
Shi Qiang is not tired. Compared with the decades he wasted in the past, this kind of life is almost like paradise. As for being woken up by a phone call in the middle of the night, it is nothing. He has long been used to it.
Already.
All he sighed was...
I don’t know how long it will take, but when will the heavy burden of the Trisolaran and the Trisolaran fleet that is weighing on everyone on earth be completely lifted?
