Chapter 388 The Blade of Thinking
Lu Siya was stunned by Meng Chao's bold guess.
She couldn't help but turn around and ask the researchers on the side: "Is it possible for sandworms to be like earthworms, split into two individuals, and then regenerate alone?"
"It's unlikely under natural circumstances."
Several sandworm experts discussed nervously for a moment and said, "After all, the body shapes are so different and the structures are also different. It would be difficult to regenerate just the sandworm's feeding cavity full of sharp teeth."
"What about using cutting-edge biochemical technology in the laboratory?"
Meng Chao said anxiously, "You must know that what we are facing is not a wild sandworm, but a work of art carefully prepared by genetic engineering. This super sandworm originally contains earthworms, sea cucumbers, octopuses and other highly regenerative creatures.
Is it really impossible for the genes of living things to be split into two?"
"this……"
The sandworm experts looked at each other and nodded solemnly, "In a laboratory environment, if the sandworm is cut into two parts and put into a culture tank respectively, it is still possible to grow a new feeding cavity and excretion hole."
"That's right!"
Meng Chao waved his arm heavily, "The 'super sandworm' in front of me must have been regenerated from the second half of Takano's body, that is, his butt and tail. It is just an 'incomplete body', so it does not have as terrible a fighting power as the original body."
, and there is no trace of wisdom or humanity.
"Sister Ya, think about the battle just now. It didn't show even a little bit of fighting wisdom comparable to humans, right?
"Also, my touching speech made the zombies cry and the monsters fell silent. However, it failed to stir even the slightest wave in the depths of its soul.
"I originally thought it was because my sharp tongue wasn't sharp enough, but now I think about it, it's just Takano's butt and has no soul at all!"
"Well……"
Lysiya said, "This is just your speculation without any evidence."
"There is no evidence, but it makes sense, doesn't it?"
Meng Chao said, "This speculation solves all the doubts - why is its combat effectiveness so weak, why can't it understand what I'm saying, and why did the enemy release it ten days in advance to cause trouble?"
"etc."
Lu Siya said, "Even if it is really just a clone of Takano, why did the enemy release it ten days in advance to arouse our vigilance? Even if it is a clone, it is very likely to destroy the tunnel across the river.
"
"Yes, this is another question..."
Meng Chao murmured to himself and began to think hard again.
But this time, he only thought about it for half a minute before he stretched out a finger and said, "I only think of one possibility, which is to attract our attention to the greatest extent and let the entire nine groups be affected by this 'super sandworm clone'"
'Leading by the nose and having no time to care about other things.
"To put it bluntly, the ninth group is the task force for the 'Linchuan and Takano case'. Once Takano's whereabouts appear, we will put down all the work at hand and mobilize all our forces to encircle and suppress him.
"From Team Leader Ye to me, a non-staff member, in the past ten days, everyone has been playing 'hide and seek' with this beast deep underground for the past ten days and has barely slept a wink. Naturally, we have no time or energy to deal with other clues.
"So, assuming my guess is correct, the entire nine groups have been tracking the 'Super Sandworm Clone' in the past ten days and a half. What about the original body? Where is it and what has it done? Ten days, ten whole days.
, enough for Gao Ye and the strange beast controlling him to create an earth-shattering conspiracy!"
Lu Siya said: "Isn't the destruction against the south of the city considered an 'earth-shattering conspiracy'? In this destruction, the alien beasts almost had the effect of 'fog descending and beast tide invading' without fog."
"So what? Will Dragon City perish because of this?"
Meng Chao asked back, "Even if I increase the attack intensity of the alien beasts three to five times and plunge the entire south of the city into a sea of fire, so what? Will Dragon City be destroyed because of this?"
"No, it's impossible. It's not like Dragon City has never suffered such heavy losses. At the most dangerous time, the area of the city still controlled by humans was reduced by half. Haven't we survived?
"Sister Ya, it is impossible for monsters to destroy us simply by attacking Dragon City from the physical level. The crisis will make us more united, virtually eliminating and covering up the original contradictions in Dragon City - I believe that the alien beasts must be very aware of this.
at this point.
"Then, launching such a futile attack would not have much strategic significance.
"Yes, tonight the south of the city has been turned into a pot of hot porridge. Many innocent citizens have been tortured and many buildings are burning. Maybe some high-rise buildings will collapse and some strong people will fall. When the dust settles,
There are still countless citizens who have lost their homes and need to be resettled, and there are problems in every aspect.
"But these problems cannot shake the foundation of Dragon City, nor can they shake the faith of mankind. Instead, they will make us share the same hatred and unite as one.
"In terms of the alien beasts, what's the price paid?
"First of all, this attack has made humans aware of the new tactics of the alien beasts. In the future, we will definitely strengthen monitoring of the underground world. Next time we want to dig an underground passage directly from the outside of the city to the city, it will not be so easy.
"Secondly, humans have also discovered a new type of zombie virus. With our learning and research speed, we will definitely be able to quickly decipher the secrets of the new virus, develop corresponding vaccines and serums, and develop tactics for dealing with new types of zombies.
"Even ordinary citizens will not be so panicked next time they see a new type of zombie that can fly, jump, spit acid water, and explode itself.
"Not to mention wasting away in Dragon City, there are so many genetically modulated snakes, insects, rats, and ants with super nerves and rudimentary intelligence. Even if they are alien beasts, it will take a lot of resources to modulate them, right?
"These are the costs of attacking Dragon City.
"So, after investing so much cost, what exactly did the alien beast get? Nothing, not at all. It's exactly the same as the previous Mist Advent. The cost-return rate is simply outrageously low!"
Hearing this, Lu Siya couldn't help but said: "Is your imagination too rich?
"In the past, when the fog came, monsters would fight like this.
"Now that we have the command of the alien beasts, the concealment, pertinence and coordination between different groups of monsters' attacks, and even the coordination between monsters and zombies, have all been greatly improved. Isn't this enough?"
"Not enough, far from enough."
Meng Chao looked at Lu Siya very seriously, with a light that transcended the times deep in his eyes, and said word by word, "Sister Ya, do you know what the people of Longcheng lack most nowadays?"
Being stared at by him like this, Lu Siya felt a strange feeling in her heart and subconsciously asked: "What is it?"
“Strategic Thinking.”
Meng Chao said, "In Dragon City now, there are many high-ranking and powerful men in the divine realm, as well as experts and scholars who have reached the pinnacle of their professional fields. In the Red Dragon Army, there are also majestic generals who command millions of troops.
"Their wisdom is, of course, a hundred times greater than mine.
"But with all due respect, I feel that the current strong men and wise men in Dragon City do not have enough overall view and strategic thinking.
"Of course, this cannot be blamed on anyone. After all, Dragon City has been a lone army in a foreign world since it traveled to another world more than half a century ago. Our vision is shrouded in fog, and everything we see and think is in this small city.
There are inevitably more and more blind spots and limitations.
"Moreover, our opponent is far from being a very smart guy.
"Monsters don't have any strategic wisdom. Their so-called 'siege' is just a swarm of swarms rushing in to destroy and die, driven by their killing instinct. Although they are extremely ferocious, they are also unorganized and can kill people tactically.
, strategically, every attack they make is meaningless.
“Have you heard the saying, don’t argue with a fool, because a fool will only drag you to his level and then defeat you with his rich experience.
"Similarly, we shouldn't fight with the sword and halberd demon pig in the mud pond. Even if we win, we will only be covered in smelly mud.
"Do you understand what I mean? The so-called 'monster war' does not exist at all, because this kind of child-like battle does not deserve to be called a real 'war'!
"Even if on a certain battlefield, a god-level warrior and a doomsday beast can engage in a soul-stirring, epic battle, strategically speaking, it is no different from two soldiers of the enemy and ours rolling into a ball in a ditch.
"The result is that throughout the decades of so-called 'monster wars', instead of honing any strategic thinking, we have been brought down to the level of monsters. Like monsters, we have well-developed limbs and simple minds!
"Let's just talk about the battle in front of us.
"Because the enemy attacked the south of the city first, I believe that the south of the city is the enemy's only target, but don't think about why the enemy launched this attack and what the enemy's strategic purpose is - this is a typical case of missing the forest for the trees!"
Lu Siya opened her mouth.
I really want to say: "No one in the city has strategic wisdom, but you do?"
But when you think about Meng Chao throwing out so many predictions and analyzes on strange beasts, the accuracy is frighteningly high.
There is also the "extreme flow" that he helped Gu Jianbo create, which has almost perfect targeting for the constantly evolving monsters.
Lu Siya shut up obediently.
Meng Chao also felt that what he said seemed to go too far.
Nowadays, the strong men, wise men, experts and elites in Dragon City may not have strategic thinking.
But their strategic thinking is definitely far inferior to that of the Longcheng people decades later in the memory fragments of their previous lives.
Because the people of Dragon City now only use one city as their battlefield and stupid monsters as their enemies.
Decades later, the battlefield has turned into an entire alien world, and the enemies have also become all kinds of strange alien races!
Even before the end of the world, Meng Chao only played the role of charging into battle and sneaking in assassinations.
