Collapse 3, the opening made the Yingjies regret for life

——Strange, I know it's true, but shouldn't it be a spare tire that you can't use the Gate Line, and the next best thing?Why is Mebius so attentive?

Suddenly, Mei didn't know her mind.

At this time, someone asked a question that most people at the scene wanted to ask:

"May I ask Dr. Mebius, what kind of Houkai beast gene can create such a powerful original fusion warrior?"

Chapter 4.5: May the glory of mankind last forever ([-]k)

--coming.

Mebius' heart sank, and she knew that someone would definitely ask this question. After all, Lie's sense of presence was too strong, and the strength visible to the naked eye from head to toe without dead ends was enough to subvert the common sense and understanding of everyone on the scene. Knowing, and even making the rationality that has occupied the high ground all the year round surrender to the perceptual judgment, and fall into instinctive fear.

With preconceived and terrifying impressions, they quickly accepted the detailed data and various video demonstrations presented by Mebius on the huge screen behind them. It was enough to overestimate the opponent's strength, but they didn't expect the actual situation to be far more exaggerated than they thought.

However, Mebius has emphasized more than once that the original fusion fighter is a miracle of chance and coincidence that cannot be copied. If he is used as the benchmark, the success rate will be so low that there will be no one. people can accept.

Perhaps in order to dispel everyone's unrealistic thoughts as soon as possible, Mebius then honestly announced the corresponding success rate. Compared with the current version that has undergone countless optimizations, the difference is not a star.

Looking at the number at the beginning of 0, followed by a series of almost invisible endless original success rate of 0 after the decimal point, everyone still feels that the current success rate is too good-looking. Although it is still ridiculously low, considering that this investment can produce close to Herrscher-level combat power is still very cost-effective—if Mebius is not lying.

But considering today's battle and the guests, Mebius would not dare to talk about it even if she had the guts of a bear, otherwise she would not be able to work in the industry in the future.

——What's more, people have invited the "righteous master" to stand for themselves. Is it necessary to do such stupid things of academic fraud?

No matter how he thought about it, Mebius had no reason to lie.

——But here comes the problem.

The essence of the Fusion Warrior Project is very simple, and it can be summed up in one sentence. It is to integrate the genes of the powerful Houkai Beast into the soldiers, and transform them into super soldiers comparable to Herrscher.

And Mebius also said that the final result depends not only on the quality of the subjects, but also on the selected Honkai beast genes.

The original fusion warrior looks like a child who hasn't grown up... If you want to say that there is something outstanding about him other than that amazing power, it is an overly beautiful and weak appearance , it is simply incompatible with his momentum, and his painting style is completely different...

Someone had asked about his identity before, and Mebius had already been prepared for this. He randomly released a seamless file to the public. His name was Lie, an orphan. Destroying his homeland, he was left alone to wander around. After traveling to many places, he received a leaflet by chance, and then voluntarily became the subject of Mebius' experiment—maybe it was to avenge Honkai, or it might be because he simply lost his life. motivation.

They are engaged in scientific research, so they naturally don't know if there is any clue to this, and they have dedicated personnel to specialize in it. Let's leave these details to the intelligence organization to analyze, and they are concerned about other things.

——The background of the subject is unremarkable, and there is nothing worth mentioning.

——So what kind of Houkai beast gene can make such a powerful warrior?

For this, Mebius has been waiting for a long time. She has spent a lot of effort to get this "evidence" that can be finalized. Naturally, she cannot say it easily, so as not to reduce her convincing force. It's just a matter of acting first.

She precisely controlled the facial muscles, thinking about the things she hated in her mind, her face and eyes quickly cooled down, and her sinister eyes like snakes instantly locked on the face of the person who asked the question.

The man's face froze suddenly, and fine cold sweat began to break out on his forehead, but he repeated his question bravely: "Dr. You are eager to figure out the important things!"

Staring at him for a long time, Mebius turned his eyes away expressionlessly, and immediately looked at the middle-aged general sitting in the back row. The two eyes met in mid-air, and they exchanged silently through their eyes With their opinions, as Mebius expected, they quickly reached a 'consensus' under Mebius' superb acting skills.

——Exactly, it really allowed me to play freely... It seems that you also really want to know the 'truth' behind this.

- Then as you wish.

Mebius withdrew his gaze calmly, looked back at the questioner, evoked a gloomy and weird smile without warning, but said without any fluctuations in his tone: "Big hole."

"!"

As soon as these words came out, all four were shocked.

As if some unspeakable key word was triggered, the scientists at the scene shook their bodies one after another and ended the discussion, as if they were collectively controlled by a unified will. Uzz asked the same silent question—really?

——Very well, this effect is what I want.

Things have been going smoothly until now, although I don't know why Mei kept silent the whole time, except for the initial staring at Lie, she never showed any unnecessary expressions after she looked away, and she always had an indifferent and pretty face. Her face, only her eyes change, making it impossible to understand what she is thinking.

——but it doesn't matter what she thinks about it.

Mebius no longer paid attention to Mei's reaction. She controlled her facial muscles and pulled out a malicious sneer: "It seems that you already know what's in your mind, so...do you really need me to tell you everything?"

In order to maximize his convincing power, Mebius deliberately emphasized the tone in the second half of the sentence, and read it word by word, and at the same time deliberately stretched out the remote control to point to the screen in public, with a playful expression on his face. laugh.

"..."

All the scientists fell silent.

They know that this is not for themselves, but for the representatives behind. The word "big hole" represents the secret of the highest level of secrecy. They have only heard it a little bit, and know that something terrible has happened there. , As for what it is, it is not a secret that they can explore - those who can't control their curiosity are gone.

That's why Mebius threw out this word, first to remind them that this is a taboo top secret, so don't think about retreating after hearing it, and second, to politely ask the representatives sitting behind for their opinions.

——Say it or not, you decide.

"Tell me, anyway, they will know sooner or later."

"!"

The scientists were still vacillating, but the middle-aged general with the highest authority among the many representatives did not wait for them to make a decision, and directly ordered Mebius to say that his voice was neither heavy nor light, and his tone was neither salty nor bland, With the help of loudspeakers, it is enough to convey the whole venue.

"..."

Although he could not hear any emotional fluctuations in his voice, no one dared to question his decision, let alone speak out against it. After all, the background of this middle-aged general was unfathomable. Strictly speaking, he was one of their common bosses. They dare not make fun of their own future.

——It is no exaggeration to say that more than half of the reasons for their attendance at this meeting come from this mighty hawk general.

Seeing this, Mebius shrugged directly, spread his hands and said, "Okay, that's what you said."

As soon as the voice fell, she picked up the remote control and pointed it at the screen. The densely packed text, formulas, histograms, and fan-shaped graphs on the screen instantly switched to a set of continuous and regular pictures.

There is a sudden huge void in the picture, as if it is connected to another world, it is bottomless, even the light entering it will be mercilessly swallowed up, it is far away from touching it, so I can only shoot To a pitch black and outline of the outside...but from this level of zoom, it should be a satellite photo.

They knew the place on the picture, known scientifically as the Great Void, one of the greatest unsolved mysteries in the world today and the ultimate torment for contemporary geologists.

Seeing this weird anti-science place, the scientists who were involved in related fields or went to investigate in person frowned, showing distorted expressions like toothaches, as if PTSD was aroused by these photos.

Mebius didn't care about their reactions at all. Rather, he saw it in his eyes and secretly felt happy in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face—how do you inactive old wretches feel now?How do you feel? !

——How should I put it, although Mebius's unpopularity must take into account the historical process, but personal factors are also absolutely indispensable.

Seeing that the faces of those colleagues who had had rifts with him became more and more ugly, Mebius switched pictures in a happy mood, so the images on the screen kept indenting and deepening, reaching the bottom of the big hole, and then the picture lit up artificially. With the help of the bright lights, one can vaguely see a collection team seeming to be mining something.

Then, without waiting for the scientists to think about it, the mining scene stopped abruptly, and the screen went black. When the color was turned on again, it had already switched to a fragment of white on the outside and purple on the inside.

Mebius said indifferently: "Looking at the photo, do you think it is small? Let me show you its real size."

After all, she operated the remote control to call up a video and opened it.

Then, the scientists except Mei couldn't help but widen their eyes, showing a look of extreme shock one after another, while the representatives sitting in the back, except the middle-aged general who had reviewed the content in advance, the rest of the people also showed the same Similar expressions of disbelief.

The maverick Mei flashed a helpless look of "as expected" in her eyes, and her face darkened immediately. She couldn't help but sigh in her heart, and then continued to observe and think secretly.

What is shown in the video is the fragment they just saw, but this time, because there is an actual reference object in the picture for comparison with the frame, everyone has a clear understanding of its size—this seemingly small piece The actual size of the fragments is even more exaggerated than the largest Honkai beast known so far, which is simply unbelievable.

Moreover, it hasn't completely 'dead' yet. Through the transparent and clean white part, you can see the lavender glow constantly flickering inside, as if it is breathing, and the tiny light rays are constantly outlining the circuit board. The lines exude an unbelievable sense of weirdness.

Mebius didn't want to waste time listening to their unnecessary discussions, so he gave the answer before they spoke:

"This fragment is the source of the gene. As you can see, just a small fragment of the body is so huge. It is definitely not comparable to the existing Houkai beast. The existing classification is a joke in front of it. ...But based on our calculations and inferences, let's divide it into a more appropriate level for now."

Speaking of this, she deliberately paused for a moment, pretending to have sold enough before grinning: "Star rating."

"Stellar Honkai Beast!? How is this possible!"

"Just kidding... Can Honkai really give birth to such a terrifying monster?! Then what's the point of our struggle!?"

"Impossible, absolutely impossible! If such a monster really existed, human civilization would have been destroyed a hundred and eighty times long ago, how can it still survive today!?"

"..."

As soon as the word 'stellar' came out, it suddenly detonated everyone's uneasy emotions. The scientists were arguing fiercely, and the representatives were also loudly denying it... It seems that only in this way can the poor sense of security be maintained.

Regarding this, Mebius just smiled: "Don't worry, this is just a fragment, a dead thing without any threat, it still looks 'alive', just because of its own nature."

One of the scientists couldn't bear it anymore, he stood up and shouted emotionally: "Of course I know this is a dead thing, but since it exists, it means that there was such a monster at some point in history, it... "

Mebius interrupted lightly: "That's why we need to work hard to catch up, don't we... and its demise also proves that even if it grows to this point, it is not invincible, it can be killed of."

Hearing this, the man was taken aback for a moment, but his brows were still furrowed, and he said hesitantly, "But..."

Mebius snuffed out his words again impatiently: "Don't worry, we don't have any choice. Honkai is here. Surrender means extinction, and there is no other possibility."

"The sacrifices in the past have fully proved all this. Before the collapse, everyone is equal, and there is still a chance of survival in a death battle. If you surrender, you will die suddenly on the spot... No one with dignity is willing to sit and wait for death."

"it is good!"

As soon as Mebius finished speaking, the middle-aged general immediately stood up. He clapped continuously, using the applause to attract everyone's attention. When everyone's eyes were almost gathered, his voice was not clear, and his expression was determined directly. said:

"This is the fundamental reason why I, Rey Diaz, have the cheek to invite everyone to participate in this meeting. My compatriots, the time left for us for Honkai is running out. I believe everyone has discovered that the frequency of Honkai has increased significantly recently. , and the intensity is getting higher and higher every time, we can no longer immerse ourselves in the old glory, or we will be surpassed by Houkai sooner or later—and once we are surpassed by Houkai, the only way to meet us is the destruction of the country and species."

"Bengkai will not talk to you or me about anything. Surrender is meaningless, so I have selfish intentions in this meeting. I have revealed this cruel secret to you in the hope that everyone can recognize the status quo and stop being naive. Then Let's work together and forge ahead... try our best to win a ray of life for mankind!"

"In the face of Honkai, human beings can only save themselves, and they can only save themselves! There is no other way!"

"The world is ours and yours, but in the final analysis, it is the young people and the children. They are full of vigor and prosperity. They are like the sun at eight or nine o'clock in the morning. Hope is placed on them... I don't want to meet them The future will be a shattered ending, absolutely not."

"I was born in the Rey Diaz Army, and I have kept my word so far. I will put my words here today. I will do my best to provide all the comrades who are fighting against Honkai with the help I can!"

"Wake up, my compatriots and comrades! Stop dwelling on the good old days, and stop worrying about personal gains and losses. If Honkai finally defeats us, then all of this will be meaningless."

"There has never been a savior, and we don't rely on immortal emperors. To create human happiness, we all depend on ourselves!"

"May the glory of mankind live forever!"

Chapter 4.3: Let go or not? ([-]k)

The hawk general named Rey Diaz was delivering an inspiring speech, and his dead-like stiff face finally showed obvious emotional fluctuations. It is not known whether it was a play on the spot to match the speech, or it came from the heart. Revealing——Based on his past experience, Mebius is more willing to lean towards the latter.

Moreover, the weird expressions of those fellow travelers are enough to explain the problem-they should not have discussed this scene in advance.

——If this is not the arrangement above, but Rey Diaz's personal idea... This would be very interesting.

It's a pity that Mebius has already won the trump card of invincibility. Although she finds it very interesting, she doesn't want to get into this troubled water at all, and she doesn't want to go to Rey Diaz for help. After all, if it's just Reddy Yaz's personal actions will inevitably conflict with vested interest groups one day. Although Mebius was forced by Klaus to learn and master the means of calculating people's hearts, if she is not forced to, she has a little time Don't want to waste it on this.

However, Mebius was not completely moved by Rey Diaz's impassioned speech. It's just that this man's city is too deep, and he has to be on guard against everything, but at least he's right about one thing. Today's human It's just too slack.

It is obvious that the Honkai attack is becoming more and more intense, and a crisis that concerns the survival of all mankind is imminent, but the human side still does not take it seriously. Even though the casualty rate keeps rising, there is no sense of urgency at all. After so long, it is still the same That set, logistics support, military operations, resource allocation, public opinion propaganda...all remain the same as before, without targeted deflection and adjustment for the collapse.

For defeats on the battlefield, they can always find suitable excuses for themselves, and they are unwilling to make changes at all. They say it is the United Nations, but in fact, there is a deep gap between every family and every country. My own little calculation... Sigh, forget it, this is not something I can think about, let's focus on the present first.

—Sorry, Rey Diaz, I lied to you this time.

Silently apologized in his heart, Mebius quickly put the matter behind him and waited quietly for Rey Diaz to finish speaking.

Many scientists at the scene moved slightly because of Ray Diaz's impromptu speech, and their eyes flickered with contemplation.

But based on Mebius' understanding of them, most of these mature guys will not take it to heart. On the one hand, they can't help themselves, and they don't care what they want to do. His blood has been completely cooled down by years of precipitation, and he has lost the vigor and courage of the past... The world has never been black and white. You, Ray Diaz, are certainly right, but who can you represent?What else can you promise?Are you able to deliver on your promises?

Most of them are no longer pure scientists. Even the small group of guys who are obsessed with research and ignorant of world affairs have learned to play by the rules and dare not go beyond the threshold.

Therefore, their feelings are the same as that of Mebius, they are touched, but that’s all, and they will not put them into action—unless Rey Diaz really integrates the general trend of mankind and leads everyone to unite and fight against Honkai.

But the possibility of this is really too low, compared to the success rate of the original fusion fighters.

It's impossible anyway.

Lie was naturally unmoved, he only paid attention to Mebius's movements, and for Rey Diaz's eloquent and provocative speeches, he went in from the left ear and out from the right ear, and he didn't keep a word in his heart, because he didn't even think about it. Can't understand.

——Honkai is undoubtedly the greatest threat to the common enemy of mankind. Isn’t it the most correct way to put aside prejudices and work together to solve it?Why do humans still hesitate?

He has had many similar questions in the past and discussed them with Alponia, but he still can't understand them.

Since you can't understand it, there's no need to waste time thinking about it.

Everyone is not interested in Ray Diaz, except May, who has deep sympathy for him.

——Sigh, being used by Mebius and playing around without knowing it, what a poor guy.

On the way here, Mei used the authority given by Klaus to retrieve the biography of this legendary figure who went into politics. I have to say that this is an admirable soldier. For many years, I have been running around calling on all parties to abandon their prejudices and deal with Honkai together, and spared no effort to publicize the dangers of Honkai, in an attempt to reverse people's contempt for Honkai... Unfortunately, the results were minimal, and they were even slandered as an arms dealer. Shameless lackeys.

He is also one of the main members of parliament who advocates making the collapse public, but the reason is different from others.

Others are making a big fuss about the public's right to know, but he said that if the money wasted on maintaining stability and concealment every year can be put into a really useful place, the casualty rate of frontline soldiers will not rise steadily until it develops to the shocking level it is today. the point.

He also advocated that in order to deal with the collapse, mankind must complete integration as soon as possible and enter a state of first-level combat readiness, transform civilization into a war machine only for victory, and at the same time must unite all forces that can be united—including the zeroth life form .

There is no doubt that this is an iron-blooded soldier with a deep brand of hawks.

——Unfortunately, he is too tough, and he is a little unreasonable. Even if what he says is true, most people can't accept it, let alone the top leaders of human beings.

Quickly going through Rey Diaz's information in her mind, Mei couldn't help sighing heavily in her heart, she was even more angry at Mebius' deception and use of this soldier, and at the same time felt helpless in her heart.

——In the face of an unreasonable crisis like the collapse, the progress of civilization and the development of human rights have actually become a drag, which is really ironic.

——However, what is even more ironic is that once they have enjoyed these things, and let human beings go back to the past and wrong themselves, even if the reasons are justified, they will complain in their hearts, and this complaint will continue to accumulate over time, or it will be caused by someone with a heart. Use it, or bloom the flower of malice...
