Devil's Doom Row

Chapter 153 Luo Ming's Plan

The information Birch provided was very important to Luo Ming, which made Luo Ming very glad that his choice was not wrong, and Biqi did not disappoint him.

There are too many survivors and characters involved in this mission. Luo Ming can't take care of it by himself. Even adding Jill is a drop in the bucket. He provided very valuable information, and thanks to his information, Luo Ming immediately made a judgment and response to the current situation!

However, his judgment and coping methods are obviously different from what others imagined. Take Burch as an example, he can't understand why Luo Ming ignores a threat with a high possibility, and even sends Jill to protect him. other side!This is an unimaginable thing for Birch. In his eyes, it is too late to get rid of the other party. How can he protect him?

But it is obvious that Luo Ming does not have this idea. Firstly, this is because Luo Ming has a faster brain. Birch may also have some experience and brains, but at most he can only see how to take the next step, but Luo Ming is often in the next step. Think about how you should act in the last three steps!This makes it difficult for Burch to understand Luo Ming's thoughts, and another point is the difference due to their different identities and positions. No matter how good Burch's relationship with Luo Ming is, how much he trusts him, but other After all, his identity is a survivor, and he has only one goal: to complete the task.

But Luo Ming is a devil, his target is not the plot characters, but the survivors!The goals of the two parties are essentially different, even opposing, so Luo Ming's actions are absolutely impossible for Birch to understand easily.

As for why he wanted to protect this so-called 'enemy', Luo Ming did have his own plans.

He said before that the top priority now is to protect the survivors, and this has not changed, but in fact, one sentence can sum up why Luo Ming wants to protect the survivors, that is, weasels give chickens New Year greetings, no good intentions!His purpose of protecting the survivors is to trade with them better and more conveniently, and in the end he is killing them!Therefore, this kind of protection is not [-]% willing, nor will it spare no effort to give it all, but it has reservations and even calculations!
Take Luo Ming's actions just now, the fact that he wants to protect the survivors from being controlled by the Zerg has not changed, but he does not intend to completely eliminate the threat of the survivors!Instead, they deliberately left some hidden dangers and threats, and used these hidden dangers and threats as bargaining chips to trade with the survivors. Otherwise, the survivors did nothing. Luo Ming removed all the threats for others, and finally got himself He doesn't have any bargaining chips in his hand, what has he become?

For this reason, it is actually impossible for Luo Ming to completely eliminate the hidden dangers for the survivors. To put it simply, he will only protect the survivors to a limited extent, but will reserve enough danger for them without affecting the transaction. Only in this way can we ensure that the transaction can go smoothly in the end.

Therefore, Luo Ming immediately made a judgment after listening to the information provided by Birch. First of all, this information is very important. If he reacts quickly and handles it properly, he can quickly establish an advantage for himself, and in one fell swoop the entire future The initiative of the mission is in his own hands, but the same Luo Ming is also very clear that this information is not exclusive!

This point is very critical. In Luo Ming's eyes, there is a difference between intelligence and exclusive information. The value of exclusive information is incomparable. Sometimes only a single piece of exclusive information can completely determine the success or failure of a mission. Compared with The importance of information will decrease a lot. Although it is still very important, information is not exclusive after all. For example, now, Luo Ming has learned a lot of things from Birch, but other survivors also know these things!

Survivors with a large number of people and a clear division of labor have been busy outside all day, and they must have investigated what Birch said, even more than he knew. Under such circumstances, would they just sit and wait?of course not!Survivors with the same identity as Birch also know the plot, and there are many smart people among them, such as Lake, so they will take immediate action. According to Luo Ming's judgment, the survivors will definitely send someone to kill these people immediately. personal!
This is a result that can be easily judged, because in the eyes of the survivors, the sooner the source of infection is removed, the fewer hidden dangers, the more plot characters they can rescue in the end, and the richer the rewards they get , it can be said that each of them is in line with their interests, so even if it is not [-]% sure that the five characters who joined later are humans controlled by the Zerg, if it is Luo Ming, they will definitely kill them all. Regarding the judgment of Lake, he believed that this person would do the same thing!

In this case, Luo Ming must ensure that one of the five people is alive, and this person must be the one who is most likely to be controlled by the Zerg, otherwise, if the Zerg has not had time to infect others, they will all be killed. The originally dangerous task has turned into a boring wait, what will Luo Ming use as a bargaining chip in the future to trade with the survivors!

That's why he asked Jill to protect Dolph, while he got rid of the other four people, because if the survivors slow down, the remaining four people will be very dangerous. After all, the ideal environment that Luo Ming wants to create now is There is danger, but the danger is within his controllable range, which is the most ideal.

Of course, it is impossible for him to explain these plans and ideas to Birch. In Luo Ming's view, Birch only needs to do his own thing well.

"Jill, remember what I said?"

He told Jill his thoughts in his heart, and Luo Ming emphasized: "We must protect Dolph, if we can be sure that he is controlled by the Zerg, we must protect him even more. If I guess correctly, Lake will be killed tonight." I will send people to get rid of all suspicious characters, and you must not go wrong."

"know."

"Also, try not to let Dolph see you."

"Ah."

Nodding his head, Jill understood what Luo Ming meant, and also knew how important his mission was to him, so he disappeared immediately after learning about Dove's location from Birch.

And when Jill disappeared, Luo Ming turned to Birch and the two of them: "Biqi, you two will stay here tonight, and if anything happens, call me in your heart immediately, and you must not have any accidents."

"Okay!" Birch nodded hastily to Luo Ming's arrangement.

"Also..." After he nodded, Luo Ming said again: "I still need you to go back to the survivors, I need you to get information and movements from them."

"what?"

Upon hearing this, Birch's expression immediately changed. He didn't directly refute Luo Ming, but there was obvious reluctance on his face, obviously unwilling to return to the other survivors.

"Mr. Luo Ming, it's not that I won't go back, even if I want to go back, they won't want us!"

Birch is very smart, he didn't subjectively say that he didn't want to go back, but said that other survivors would not accept him and Aini.

But since Luo Ming wanted him to go back, and he had to go back, he naturally thought of Birch's possible arguments long ago, and naturally had a way to deal with him, so after that, Luo Ming laughed: "Don't worry Well, I will let them take the initiative to beg you to go back, and then you can just stop resisting and ruin my affairs, understand?"

"Please go back?" Looking at Luo Ming, Birch didn't quite believe his words, but finally nodded: "Okay, I'll listen to you."

"Very well, remember not to go out, the base will be messy tonight..."

After saying this, Luo Ming disappeared directly in front of Birch.

After disappearing, he immediately left the small warehouse and rushed towards the nearest target location!

According to Birch, the five characters who joined later did not rest together. They were scattered throughout the base, so it would take some time to kill them. Luo Ming had no choice but to do it alone. One is looking for, so it is natural to go towards the nearest target.

The location of this target is on the first floor, and it is one of the night watchmen. This is undoubtedly a good thing for Luo Ming, because there are not many night watchmen in the base due to the existence of the defense grid, so killing this person is not a problem. There will be too much commotion. In Luo Ming's plan, it's best to do everything in the dark, and it's best not to let the characters in the plot notice from the beginning to the end.

So soon, he ran to where this person was, but when he rushed through a corridor with flickering lights, a figure suddenly appeared in front of him!
Seeing this figure suddenly rushing out, Luo Ming was taken aback. Fortunately, he has maintained his soul state, otherwise he would have bumped into the opponent's arms all at once!And after he calmed down, he hurriedly looked up and down the sudden figure, not to mention, he really knew him, this guy was one of the survivors!
Sandor: Survivor

Seeing the appearance of the figure in front of him clearly, Luo Ming immediately remembered who this person was, he was one of the survivors, and Luo Ming still had some impressions of him!Because this guy is one of Lake's cronies!

Luo Ming had heard from Birch before that Lake was not alone like Alban, he had a lot of confidants among the survivors, and Luo Ming himself confirmed this through a daytime observation One point, there are indeed a few good cronies around Lake, and the man named Shan Duo in front of him is one of them!

At the same time, there is another thing Luo Ming wants to impress about him, that is, although this guy only has a white soul, his attributes are higher than some survivors with blue souls!
Generally speaking, the quality of the soul is not directly related to the value of the attribute, that is to say, a survivor with a high-quality soul may also have a low attribute, but although the quality of the soul is not linked to the attribute, it also determines a How big is a person's potential? The higher the quality of the soul, the greater the development potential of a person, and the more likely they are to stand out. The result of this being implemented on survivors is that survivors with high-quality souls can often accumulate after a few missions. A considerable number of doomsday points to strengthen themselves, because they have stronger invisible hidden abilities, and survivors with low-quality souls need to put in more effort to complete the task, otherwise even if everyone has the same foundation, they will soon be left behind .

But Shan Duo is a rather special existence. His soul quality is only white, but his attributes are higher than some survivors with blue souls. There are only two explanations for this situation. One is his Fortunately, I made a fortune in a certain mission and got a lot of doomsday points, and then I was able to strengthen the attributes so well. Another explanation is that this person worked harder than other survivors, and at the same time performed more tasks. Task, so it has more excellent attributes!
For these two explanations, Luo Ming tends to the latter, so even though Shan Duo only has a white soul and is not on his trading list, Luo Ming still has an impression of him.

But Luo Ming didn't expect to meet him here. This meeting was completely unexpected, but when Luo Ming realized it, he figured it out. It was also a reasonable meeting.

Because he soon wanted to understand why Shan Duo appeared here. The two of them were targeting the same person, the character who might be controlled by the Zerg! !
It seems that what Luo Ming thought was right, Lake really started to arrange for the survivors to act!He really planned to kill all five suspected characters!
This is indeed the case. In fact, Lake has already had his own plan for this mission. Of course, his idea is much simpler and purer, that is, to find the humans controlled by the Zerg as quickly as possible, and to find the humans under the control of these people. Clean them up before infecting more characters before it's too late. The sooner these people are wiped out, the more plot characters Rick and other survivors can save, and the rewards they get after the mission is over. more abundant.

In this regard, Lake even made arrangements before entering the base. He has been thinking about how to find the enemies hidden among the characters from a very early stage, and he has also gained a lot in a day. It can be said that he also found out everything Birch found, and because of the large number of survivors, they also found other suspicious targets. These targets were all characters who had close contact with those five people during the day.

In the original plot, once humans are controlled by the Zerg, they will become complete puppets, no longer have their own thoughts, and completely obey the orders of the Zerg, but there is no difference on the surface. Infected targets are very difficult, because even if they are controlled by the Zerg, the controlled people will not have too obvious abnormalities and changes.

However, there is no absolute in everything, any seemingly perfect thing can find flaws and flaws under the perfect surface, the same is true for humans controlled by Zerg, so after studying the plot many times, Lake really found a way to distinguish Methods!He found that in the movie, all humans controlled by the Zerg have one characteristic, that is, they like to gather together!
This may be due to the fact that the Zerg itself is a group living creature. Habits cannot be changed just by changing them, so this may be their only flaw.

And Lake just grasped this point and found a few more suspicious targets than Birch. Maybe it would be cruel to blacklist these characters based on their frequent contact with each other, but for Lake, it is It is necessary, his thought is very straightforward, that is, he would rather kill a hundred by mistake than let one go!
Therefore, at night, after everyone collected the information they collected together, Lake immediately made a decision and arrangement, and arranged for a group of survivors who he thought were strong enough to kill these people!

Seeing Shan Duo passing by him, Luo Ming stopped in his tracks instead, and did not fight Shan Duo, because the purpose of both of them was to kill the target. Since the purpose was the same, then in the situation where he could not do anything Xia Luo Ming was naturally happy to watch the play.

So when Shan Duo walked by, Luo Ming slowed down and followed behind him.

The corridor they are in is not very long. It didn’t take long for Shan Duo to reach the end of the corridor. As long as he exits the gate, he can enter the hall, and the target he wants to kill is alone in the hall. patrol!
When he came to the door, Shan Duo leaned against the door and listened with experience. Although the iron door was very heavy, he could still hear a faint sound of footsteps when he approached. There was only one person on one side, and then he opened the door and walked out!

"Hi! Will!"

Walking out of the gate, Shan Duo saw the target of this trip as soon as he came out, a young man with a childish face!

This young man's name is Will, and he is one of the five people the commander met at the time of the breakup. From his appearance and temperament, it can be seen that this young man is a recruit. He should have just joined the army, and the actual situation is indeed the case. , I saw that Will was startled when he heard Shando’s voice, and hurriedly turned around in horror, and he was relieved until he saw Shando’s appearance clearly.

Although the two of them are not familiar with each other, they have met several times in the base where they stayed for a day, so Will put down the gun in his hand after seeing Shando, and asked curiously To: "Why are you here?"

"Hehe, come out to get some air, it's too stuffy inside."

Compared with the rookie Will, Shan Duo's experience is obviously much more sophisticated. At this time, he smiled and took out a pack of cigarettes, lit one himself, and walked to Will while lighting up. In front of him, he also handed one.

Looking at the cigarette handed over by Shan Duo, Will let go of the hand that was holding on to the butt of the gun, and raised his hand to take it. Suddenly, a machete with the length of a foot appeared in Shan Duo's other hand!Immediately afterwards, a few flashes of cold light flashed, and with a plop, Will fell to the ground!
An instant later, Shan Duo solved Will!
All this happened so fast that Will was killed before he even had time to make a sound!

At the same time, as a level 2 survivor, Shando really deserves his reputation, or he is just a white soul but has more attributes than blue soul survivors, he is really powerful, and he didn't give Will any chance to resist kill it!And Luo Ming, who witnessed all this behind him, was not surprised that such a result would appear, because Will's attributes were very average, and he couldn't be compared with Shan Duo at all, plus the difference in experience between the two, and It was still a sneak attack, so this kind of result seemed natural to him.

Then Luo Ming watched Shan Duo walk up to Will, stood there and took a deep breath of the cigarette, exhaled a smoke ring, then bent down to pick up the cigarette on the ground and put it back into the cigarette case, then turned and walked away up!
From this series of actions, it can be seen that Shan Duo is obviously not an ordinary person. It is by no means a fluke that he has such high attributes and strength. This person is also a ruthless character!

After he left, Luo Ming appeared, but his expression was a little different at this time. After Luo Ming appeared, he came to Will's body, frowning, looking at his face. The corpse fell into deep thought!
He was not surprised that Shando was able to kill Will, the difference in strength between the two sides was too great, and he was not surprised that Will would be killed by Shando, but what surprised him was that if Will was really a human being controlled by the Zerg, it would be like this Isn't it too easy to be killed quietly? !
Don't forget that these controlled humans are the only villains in the whole story!Although the story of Starship Troopers 2 is not focused on combat, so these villains may not have super powerful combat power, but they should always have the ability to protect themselves?How could it be killed so easily?
Luo Ming felt that other things were normal, but this incident made him feel very strange!So after regaining his senses, Luo Ming squatted down and began to examine Will's body carefully.

As a person with a computer-like mind, Luo Ming knows many things, and autopsy is one of them. He may not be able to examine corpses as thoroughly as a real coroner, but he still knows some basic things. I did a basic check and found nothing.

This result made Luo Ming's brows tighten, and finally he couldn't help but contact Birch in his heart.

"Birch, tell me, how did the Zerg enter the human body in the movie?"

"This... is from the mouth."

After getting in touch with each other, Birch quickly gave the answer Luo Ming wanted.

"Understood, are you okay there?"

"fine."

"Well, protect yourself."

After saying this sentence, Luo Ming ignored Birch and turned to look at Will's body.

"It's been a long time since I did this job..." Looking at Will's corpse and sighing, Luo Ming took out his flaming dagger, and then... started the autopsy!

Yes, in order to find out whether Will was controlled by the Zerg, and at the same time, with the idea of ​​finding the weakness of the controlled humans, Luo Ming decided to disembowel Will and examine it carefully from the inside out!
After nearly 10 minutes passed, Luo Ming, who was half squatting on the ground, shook his hand, put away the flaming dagger, and stood up. At this time, Will on the ground was no longer in shape. After all, Luo Ming is not a professional coroner, dissecting such things It's not very proficient in doing it, but the process may be terrible, but in the end Luo Ming got it, that means Will is just an ordinary human being! !

After dissecting his body, Luo Ming was completely sure of this, because according to Birch, the way the Zerg control humans is to use a newly produced small parasite, which is slightly smaller than a palm, derived from humans. After entering the body with its mouth, it can control the human brain, and then make it a puppet of the Zerg. In this case, if Will is really controlled by the Zerg, there will inevitably be parasites in his body, and this parasite The worm is not too small, so it should be easy to find, but unfortunately Luo Ming was not found in Will's body!

In other words, Will is not under control?

This discovery was somewhat beyond Luo Ming's expectation!
