Enforcer's Handbook

"What are you still doing? Take your men and run out."

The urging sound brought the head of the security department back to reality, and he covered his chest with his hands almost reflexively.

When the red laser shot across his chest, he felt like he was dead.

Kolo Film's movies occasionally show scenes of human bodies being cut by lasers. Those subcutaneous bulletproof coatings have no effect at all in the face of laser weapons.

But now, his chest is intact, and even the body armor shows no signs of damage, as if everything just now was just an illusion.

But soon, the supervisor gave up such an idea.

When he turned his face sideways, he noticed from the corner of his eye that the upper part of the chair had been split into two, and the bulletproof security door of the command room had also been laser-cut. Through the damaged upper part, he saw the scene in the corridor.

Emergency warning lights illuminated the corridor, and more probes came out of the walls and circuits.

He has heard other department heads complain more than once. They always feel that the company is "alive", and they, the living people, are more like puppets. They don't know when they know that the office building they are in is really alive. What would you think?

The surveillance camera in the corridor was peering at them, and the scarlet beam made the supervisor feel creepy.

What was happening in the company was beyond his understanding. He had never seen such a scene even in the movies.

And Mr. Rob Lucci showed him a clear way as always - escape.

The head of the security department didn't stop for much. He ignored another laser that was ready to fire behind him and ran towards the door.

The scorching ray touched his back again, penetrated his body, and left an "S" shaped cut on the ground.

But this time he saw clearly.

It seemed that for a moment, his body became void, and the laser that was supposed to cut off his body seemed to sweep through the air.

This must be Mr. Rob Lucci's method.

The supervisor didn't look back and continued running forward.

At the same time, Lu Xiang and others, who noticed the abnormality, were rushing towards the company building of Kolo Films. The company building was surrounded by onlookers. They took out their mobile phones and raised their heads, looking at the light beam coming from the top of the building. Shooting in the direction.

Another red beam of light streaked across the night sky.

However, this time, the company did not return to calm as before. At the same time that the laser dissipated, people heard a roar, which was also mixed with a heart-wrenching sound.

Some sharp-eyed people let out a cry of surprise. They turned around and ran away, but they only bumped into the people behind them.

The outside of the building was full of people, leaving no room for them to escape.

About two or three seconds later, more people noticed the abnormality on the roof of the company and felt the tremors under their feet - part of the building broke away from the support and was falling in their direction.

Its size was much larger than people imagined. The darkness blocked the light, and it looked like a falling meteorite to their sight.

There was a chorus of exclamations.

But the "meteorite" fell so fast that they had no time to react.

"boom--!"

The deafening crash drowned out everything.

The security director, who was still running wildly, staggered and almost sprained his foot. In a daze, he felt as if he had returned to the battlefield in the "outside world". The sound of bullets and laser cutting could not be heard. The company they were familiar with seemed to have become a bombardment. battlefield, but this time their enemies are not warlords or rebels from the "outside", but a bunch of machines.

He knew the source of the roar just now, and when he ran downstairs, he saw the falling part of the building.

The fall did not stop there. The echo from the ground floor had not disappeared yet. Another "meteorite" passed through his peripheral vision, which forced him to continue to speed up. He could feel that the whole building was collapsing. , the part leading to the upper level has been completely blocked.

As for him...

If it weren't for that indescribable state of virtualization, he would have died countless times.

The head of the security department feels that he is now just like those who cheat in the game. It seems that any physical attack method can no longer affect him.

Whether bullets, lasers or broken building materials will pass through his body.

Of course, he also thought of another explanation.

The real him might have been dead when the laser pierced his body, and what was running wildly in the collapsed building now was just his consciousness that had not disappeared.

But no matter what, he wanted to evacuate as many of his men as possible from the building that was about to collapse.

Under his command, the security team members carried the injured and conducted an orderly retreat.

It's just that the speed of the building's collapse was too fast, and the collapsed part had caught up with him, so that he didn't know whether the stairs he was stepping on were still stairs.

The process of blurring became more and more obvious, and he became more and more skillful. Now he can even briefly shuttle through the sealed wall.

The ground floor was getting closer.

The security director was fully mentally prepared. Even if mastery of the "hollow" meant that he was getting closer to death, he would at least escape from the building.

Finally, he saw light ahead.

Those lights guided him to find a path among the ruins blocked by the collapse.

Through dust, fire, and everything that stood in his way, he got closer and closer to the light, until the light ahead became within reach.

Then, there was a brief blank in his consciousness.

After about a few seconds, the head of security saw the source of the lights.

Flashing lights illuminated his way forward.

People surrounding the company building were taking pictures of the crashing building. They seemed to be used to the debris of the building that was still falling towards them.

The roaring continued, but no one was injured.

The falling objects that were supposed to crush the onlookers penetrated their bodies. In a daze, he felt that he saw a reflection from another time and space - the building that kept falling and disintegrating seemed to be in another time and space dimension, and only Only in this way can he explain everything he saw at the moment.

Or maybe everyone he saw was dead and this was just a carnival from hell.

He and everyone present witnessed this unnatural phenomenon. The debris of the building that fell to the ground began to disintegrate at a speed visible to the naked eye, and eventually turned into powder and completely disappeared from their sight.

The whole process lasted for about ten minutes. In these ten minutes, this entertainment empire that had existed for decades and carried the dreams of countless people collapsed, and only a deep pit was left in front of people's eyes.

It promises to be a sleepless night for journalists in District 4.

The Kolo Film Studio building mysteriously disappeared, and a big explosion occurred in the villa area. It was suspected that someone detonated a miniature tactical nuclear bomb.

The streets are now filled with law enforcement officers and people from the Abnormal Case Investigation Bureau.

No one knows what the final outcome of this matter will be. Every reporter at News 52 was shouted out by their immediate boss overnight. Now is a great time for them to have first-hand information.

Just as everyone in District 4 was taking action, Song Lan walked into an automatic supermarket carrying three luggage bags.

"Gudong——"

The automatic drink vending machine made a soft sound and a free bottle of drink rolled out, which meant that he became today's lucky customer.

This is already a daily routine for Song Lan. Although he has repeatedly stressed to artificial intelligence not to do this, they are so enthusiastic that they will receive free goods and services from artificial intelligence wherever they go.

But he didn't come to this supermarket just to eat and drink. Song Lan said to the smart beverage vending machine that was smiling at him, "Call the 'King', I have something to do with him."

"Your request has been received, please wait... The connection is successful!"

After the smart beverage vending machine paused for a while, the mechanical synthesized voice also changed accordingly, "Teacher, are you here for the machine that just attacked you at Colo Pictures?"

"You recognize it?"

Except for Song Lan, no one else has seen the true appearance of the Kolo Film Building.

Inside the founder's office, there was a huge core that he had never seen before. That core seemed to be the source of mechanical energy. The entire building had been eroded by the machinery. Although Song Lan eventually demolished the entire building, he always felt These strange machines are alive.

From the information they have so far, it's at least certain that they appeared at the founder's home and at the Khloe Studios building at the same time.

Before they emerged from the founder's body, the founder spoke the letter "R" in spoken language.

This made Song Lan immediately think of the "King" and his brothers and sisters.

They have a quite large family, as well as a large mechanized force, which is no less large than any large family in the coalition government.

The leaders of these family branches are numbered by RT.

"I don't know, teacher. The machine that attacked you comes from an unknown intelligent module. I have never seen a mechanical consciousness like them."

"You don't even know?"

Song Lan was a little surprised. He heard about the consciousness network promoted by the Mechanicus. Their consciousnesses were closely connected, and there were no secrets between them, unless the mechanical consciousness bodies that attacked them were "wild" and Not drawn into the family group by their mother.

"At least I can confirm that they are not connected to our consciousness network 'now'."

"The King" said, he emphasized "now".

Song Lan tried to understand the meaning of the "King's" words, "You mean, someone has been kicked out of your family group?"

"I don't know, that was before I was born. Maybe RT4 will know something about what happened in the past."

This is one of the drawbacks of consciousness networks.

They can know what is happening now. For example, as long as RT4 and RT6 are paying attention to him, they will find the conversation taking place in the autonomous supermarket in District 4, but they cannot immediately know what happened before they were born.

After a brief pause, the "King" explained, "I can only tell you that the consciousnesses of RT1, RT2 and RT3 are not connected with us. This has been the case since I was born... The artificial intelligence consciousness that attacked you has transformed into Quite completely, they are not the common type.”

"Thank you, 'King'."

"Although I can't answer your question, I have thought of a way."

"any solution?"

"I can ask RT6 to come to the fourth area to assist in your investigation. This is her area of ​​expertise. She happens to have been looking for your whereabouts recently."

"She's looking for me? Why?"

"They brought you fresh seafood from Atlantis, but when they arrived in District 17, you had already left."

The "King" paused for another moment, seeming to be calculating something.

Soon, his calculations came to fruition, "There is only one day and 11:32 left before the seafood spoils."

Song Lan's eyes darkened.

When the "King" mentioned this, he remembered that he asked the "Emperor" to help bring some souvenirs.

…………………………

Meanwhile, somewhere in District 4.

In the dark room, Monica took off the bloody rabbit mask. As soon as she returned to the safe house, she slumped down on the sofa, her chest heaving violently.

They never planned to use micro tactical nuclear bombs in the villa area, but that was their only chance to eliminate the founder of Kolo Films.

Even now she still feels sick to her stomach when she thinks back to the process of founder mutation.

"Your hand is burned and needs to be taken care of."

Gustav took out the first aid kit and carefully examined the wound on Monica's palm. Fortunately, it was just a regular burn, and those weird machines did not carry some weird virus.

After applying medicine and bandaging, he said, "Take care of the wound on your abdomen yourself. It's getting late today, so have a good rest."

Gustav was glad that he followed the founder's villa, otherwise Monica would have left more than just a wound on her abdomen.

The founder's house had been mechanized, and the power of the weapons was beyond imagination. Even if he used his abilities, he still could not completely neutralize those beams.

This is also because he is not good at dealing with attacks beyond his own knowledge.

Monica's face turned pale, she nodded and walked into her room.

Not everyone returned to the safe house.

The companions who were acting together were attacked unprepared, and their bodies were cut into several pieces by lasers in the blink of an eye.

Gustav felt a strong sense of crisis.

Because even Qihe's intelligence network did not investigate any relevant information. According to the intelligence they had, the founder of Kolo Films only made some prosthetic transformations in his body that were beneficial to health. But judging from the results at the scene, he clearly transformed himself into a monster.

Judging from the founder's reaction to the killer, he seemed to have no idea about it.

He also had no idea that his villa had been transformed into a slaughterhouse.

When there was no more noise from Monica's house, Gustave dialed Qi He's cell phone.

However, this time, the other party did not answer the call.

The safe house soon fell into dead silence again.

The uneasiness became more and more intense.

Small theater its one hundred and ninety-five:

It was Monday evening on a certain day of a certain month of a certain year.

Nami is good at everything, but she is so honest. Whatever you ask her, she will tell you the truth.

Facing the "ferocious" Song Lan, Nami quickly hid behind Lu Xiang, with a scared expression on the electronic screen.

"Why are you so mean to her?"

Lu Xiang glared at Song Lan and patted Nami's head comfortingly, "I asked you why you learned so quickly on your own. It turns out you hired off-site assistance."

"I think this is called using your personal strengths. When you encounter difficulties, you should learn to call your friends."

"……Let's go back."

Lu Xiang held his forehead and according to the timetable given by Nami, it showed that this stupid bird has been fishing since 13:45 until now. When it comes to fishing, Song Lan never disappoints.

Sitting on the suspended car, Song Lan felt the pressure.

Long-term experience tells him that he must do something, otherwise it will not be long before these pressures will be exerted on him in a substantial way.

"Lao Lu, regarding the wedding food issue, we can actually use pre-made dishes."

"Prepared dishes?"

"Just prepare the ingredients and seasonings in advance, and just put them into the pot for simple processing on the day. Even the night heron can do the job."

"real?"

"Of course, if you don't believe it, you can go back today and let Ye Lu demonstrate it to you."
