Chapter 211: Clouds Moving in All Directions
In a flash, Rong Yuan understood why all the people under the doctor had negative merits, but he himself had positive merits.
In the eyes of Rong Yuan and Paco, the doctor was a man without conscience, because many people must have died because of his orders , and the results of each of his experiments were piled up on the bones. But it was also true that the vaccine he developed saved many people in the Interstellar Alliance, so the doctor was once admired and respected.
The Merit Book calculates merits without considering motivation or human nature. It only looks at the results and uses data to prove it. Maybe the number of people saved by the doctor just happened to be more than the number of people who died because of him, so his final merits offset the positive and negative values and became positive. Otherwise, if he really saved countless people as he said, he would not have only a little over 10,000 merits now. As for his subordinates, because they mostly carried out the doctor's orders to hurt others, but did not participate in specific research and development work, they only accumulated negative merits.
The thought just flashed through his mind, and Rong Yuan didn't spend too much time on it.
"...Eight, seven, six, five..."
The countdown continues. Although the speed of the mecha can reach a very high value, even faster than a fired neutron bomb, acceleration still takes time .
He didn't have enough time.
Rong Yuan acted decisively. The mecha did not chase the neutron bomb directly, but instead drew an arc and chased it from the side. At the same time, he pulled out a plasma cannon from the back of the mecha and aimed at the neutron bomb that was rapidly approaching the escape pod.
There is no air in space, so there is no need to consider the influence of wind speed. Before changing direction, he was almost in the same straight line with the neutron bomb and the escape capsule. If he fired a cannon, he would definitely hit the neutron bomb, but the power of the cannon might also penetrate the escape capsule that Amirida was riding in. But if he shot from the side, considering that both sides were moving at a very fast speed, he might not be able to hit the target accurately.
Rong Yuan took a deep breath and aimed the muzzle of the cannon at the neutron bomb. In an instant, it seemed as if everything in his career had disappeared. Even the indifferent countdown sound of Pea was blocked out of his mind. In his eyes, there was nothing else except his cannon and his target.
He entered into the mysterious state he was in when he killed the biochemical beast.
A huge amount of information was received by his mind in an instant. He seemed to see the mass of the neutron bomb, its flight speed, the relative distance that was constantly changing, the time it would catch up with the escape pod, the time it would be hit by him, the expected trajectory of the encounter, the affected area, the magnitude of the lethality...
"...Four, three, two..."
The light brown eyes were like cold jade, without anger, anxiety, or fear. The silver-gray mecha held the plasma cannon steadily while flying at high speed, facing the neutron bomb that was approaching the escape pod quickly, and a light red light shot out from the muzzle!
"……one!"
The last thing Rong Yuan saw was the neutron bomb exploding. The burst of fire just touched the tail of the escape capsule. The escape capsule seemed to be on fire and accelerated out of control towards the earth.
Emilida...
As he thought of the name for the last time, Rong Yuan's eyes were covered by a white light. The only thing that was clear was Wandou's expressionless little face.
…
Rong Yuan didn't know that their battle was seen by several astronauts on the moon, and was broadcast to the world on Earth with only a delay of a few minutes. He also didn't know that during his final conversation with the doctor, his voice was received through the public channel by the sound receivers on the astronauts' helmets, and was clearly broadcast on major portals, news channels, and TV programs.
——Will you fail to recognize the voice of someone familiar to you because he suddenly speaks a foreign language?
Although they couldn't understand the gibberish, many people still felt that the voice sounded familiar.
In the most mysterious and high-end research institute in Sugar Country, everyone was eating in the cafeteria and watching TV. However, many of them participated in the research project of the End of the Moon City, and not many of them were interested in this show-like exploration. But when the mysterious mecha and monster appeared on the screen, everything changed.
They were considered the smartest people in Sugar Country, so they could tell the truth from the lies at a glance. Everyone immediately put down what they were doing and stared at the screen intently. Some people even used their laptops to record the video from the Internet, preparing to analyze it frame by frame later.
The public was watching for excitement, they were watching for the technical content, and how many years it would take for them to reach the same level. The more they watched, the more solemn their faces became. But when that voice came out, everyone's attention could not help but shift.
"The voice of this alien... is a bit like our doctor's!" A young man couldn't help but say while touching his head.
It's more than just "a bit similar". If the Doctor hadn't been standing right next to them, also looking up at the alien war on TV, they would have suspected that it was the Doctor himself who was speaking.
The person next to him pushed him and scolded him, "There are seven billion people on the earth. No matter what the voices are, there will always be similar ones. It's just a coincidence."
Everyone secretly looked at the young man they called "Doctor", only to see him with his hands in his white coat, watching TV expressionlessly, as if he did not hear what the two people said. His eyes were cold and silent, and no one knew what he was thinking.
…
There were more than one or two people who recognized that the voice believed to be that of an alien was similar to that of Dr. Rong Yuan, the most famous person in Sugar Country. Most people thought it was just a coincidence, but some people immediately called the relevant departments. The news channel even urgently added an interview. Although "Dr. Rong" only showed up for a short time, it was enough to shatter some people's unrealistic speculations.
However, for a very small number of people, they were almost immediately convinced that it was Rong Yuan himself.
“Crack!”
The thin white porcelain cup fell on the tray. Because its owner was not calm, it made a loud thumping sound. The light green tea in the cup rippled slightly and even spilled a few drops.
"He's back." Xiao Xiao said softly, with a slight smile on her lips, and said, "He was away for such a long time this time, it must have been a very interesting experience."
Yan Ce silently pulled her hand over and wiped the tea that had splashed on it with a handkerchief. Her slender fingers were soft as if they had no bones, and even colder than his robot's hands. On her arm, which was as white as a lotus root, if you looked closely, you could see faint tree-shaped white lines, which gave it an inexplicable sense of magnificence.
The girl looked at him with a smile, her eyes moving, with a hint of thought in them.
…
"Dr. Rong..." The girl who originally thought that a Nut Country movie was being broadcast on the external screen of a high-rise building suddenly stopped and looked over curiously. She was not interested in the movie, but was very interested in the owner of the voice. She couldn't help but ask, "Did Dr. Rong go to make a movie?"
A few passers-by who heard her voice were originally watching TV intently. They couldn't help but roll their eyes when they heard her words, and were simply amazed at the extent to which this girl didn't pay attention to current affairs.
The girl stopped and watched for a while, but the person she wanted to see didn't show up. Instead, she heard people say that this was a real alien war that took place near the moon. She couldn't help but curl her lips, guessing that it might be a new way of selling a game. She was speechless about the IQ of these people who were easily deceived.
Her hands were sore from carrying the shopping bags, so she changed hands and took two steps. Suddenly, she tilted her head and said to herself, "That seemed to be Dr. Rong's voice just now."
The girl put several bags at her feet and took out a mobile phone from her small handbag. On the phone was a three-headed doll, whose eyebrows and eyes looked somewhat similar to Rong Yuan. Then she unlocked the phone and saw that the screen saver and desktop pictures were all photos of Rong Yuan. After habitually staring at the photos for a while, the girl clicked on a video with ease, which was a video of Rong Yuan...or the robot Xiao A giving a speech.
To this girl, although she could understand every word, it was like listening to a foreign language when they were put together. But it didn't matter, just looking at that face, she could watch this video over and over again without getting tired of it, and that cold and transparent sound quality was so familiar to her.
"I said I wouldn't admit my mistake." The girl walked back with the bag. "What's the name of this game?"
…
Jin Yang was called out by a text message while in a meeting at Yuanyang Company. The person who contacted him was a guy who called himself "Noah". Although they had never met and rarely communicated, Jin Yang knew that Noah was Rong Yuan's capable subordinate, so he trusted him very much. Therefore, he immediately suspended the meeting, stood in the corridor, and watched the entire broadcast on his mobile phone. When he heard Rong Yuan's voice, his eyebrows only moved slightly. He was not shocked, but felt a little expected.
He was standing on the 20th or 30th floor, with a one-way transparent tempered glass window in front of him. The corridor, whether it was the mirror-clear floor or the aquamarine ceiling, was spotlessly clean. When someone was walking towards this side from a distance, they would quietly walk away and not disturb him when they saw him standing there.
Jin Yang watched the dangerous battle silently, without revealing much emotion on his face. If someone could see his eyes from the front, they would know how shaken he was at that moment.
At the end of the video, the elliptical escape pod that was desperately protected by the silver-gray humanoid mecha fell towards the earth with flames, but the humanoid mecha then suddenly disappeared, as if it had never appeared.
Jin Yang stared at the video, but he could not see what happened to the humanoid mecha. His grip tightened until the phone made an unpleasant sound of compression. He then slowed down and quickly typed a line in the phone's notepad: [Where did the escape pod fall? ]
For some reason, Noah had never spoken to him directly, and the two had always communicated via text messages. At this time, Jin Yang typed this line but did not send it, because he knew that Noah, the omnipresent guy, would definitely see it.
Sure enough, almost without a pause, a line of words appeared on the notepad: [Locked, target location: xxx, xxx. Specific address: Eastern Suburbs of City A...]
It was not far from Yuanyang Company. If it was Rongyuan, if there were people in there that Rongyuan wanted to protect, he would definitely send them to this place. But it would take Jinyang at least half an hour to get there, and before that, someone else might get there first.
Jin Yang was about to make a phone call after watching it, but when the broadcast was about to begin, it suddenly stopped.
Alien civilization... The interests involved are too great, and there are too many aspects involved. He is not at ease with anyone. It's not that Jin Yang doesn't have people he trusts, but he knows that unconditional trust is an extremely rare and precious treasure. For most people, trust is limited.
Jin Yang gave up the call, hurried to the office to pick up his coat and car keys, told his assistant to postpone the meeting, and went directly to the underground parking lot. In the elevator, he quickly typed another sentence:
[I need your help to avoid other people from getting close to the landing point. ]
[Understood. Satellite images and street cameras have been completely blocked, the traffic command system of City A has been taken over, and the airport command system has been controlled. I guarantee that you can rush to the target as quickly as possible... In order to stop others, I think you don't mind if I cause a small fire or a small car accident? I promise not to hurt anyone, but when Rongyuan comes back, you must remember to ask for credit for me! ]
Noah, that guy, sometimes looks like a robot, but from time to time he would say a few witty words. Jin Yang always guessed that he must be a lively and lawless guy in life, and maybe a bit of a chatterbox, but he was afraid that Rong Yuan would be angry with him. In the past, Jin Yang might have joked with Noah, but now time was urgent, he only replied with a "OK" and put away his phone, and the elevator door opened with a "ding dong".
A moment later, a black car sped away, with green lights all the way. Through the car window, one could see a red light falling from the sky at a very fast speed. Many passers-by saw this scene and pointed at the sky. Those who knew what happened rushed to the place where the red light fell.
Jin Yang often saw that just as his car passed by, two cars collided with each other not far behind him. Many car owners, fearing that they would not be able to obtain full insurance, did not take photos to keep evidence and then move their vehicles to evacuate traffic. Instead, the owners of the two cars slammed their doors and began to investigate who was responsible. Soon, the road was completely blocked.
It's not just the road that Jinyang passes through. At this moment, some smart car systems suddenly broke down and stopped in the middle of the road, unable to move; the horizontal railings at some highway checkpoints could not be raised after being lowered, and the computers suddenly crashed and stopped working; in some places, transformers suddenly sparked or even exploded with a bang, causing a small fire, which in turn caused power outages in a large area.
In the sultry weather, traffic in City A near the eastern suburbs was jammed one section at a time. People who intended to go to check out the fallen object were given special attention, and passers-by who were unaware of the situation were also implicated. Not long after, all the roads in the eastern suburbs stopped operating normally. Anxiety almost enveloped the entire city, and horns were heard everywhere.
Only a black car, under mysterious guidance, passed through narrow alleys and tunnels, approaching the destination more smoothly than anyone else.
Jin Yang knew that what Noah was doing could even be defined as a terrorist act. But when he replied with the word "yes" without hesitation, he had already made his choice.
