Chapter 177: Even if he is far away, he must be punished
"Just being on guard is not enough."
Hong Chengdong's expression was a little solemn: "After using five individual antimatter bombs with a lethality comparable to that of conventional nuclear bombs, Chen Fan must have encountered a very serious situation."
"In addition, there is something I need to ask you..."
"Your Excellency the Pope, do you have a way to contact Chen Fan?"
Xu Huai was stunned and fell into silence.
A trace of confusion flashed in the depths of her eyes.
After carefully recalling it, she remembered the detection drone that Chen Fan had deliberately left in Varela City.
So, Xu Huai nodded slightly: "Yes, I will contact Chen Fan later."
As soon as the voice fell, bursts of exclamations rang out in the quiet Varela City.
"There is something in the sky!"
"The Divine Chariot, is it the Divine Chariot?!"
Several exclamations from around the church reached Xu Huai's ears, her face changed slightly, and she subconsciously raised her head and looked at the cloudless sky.
A series of extremely obvious flames streaked across the blue sky, shooting towards the northwest of Varela City!
"Missile?"
Hong Chengdong's doubtful voice came from the side: "Is this a missile launched by an intelligent machine?"
Missile?
Xu Huai's eyes moved slightly. Unlike other Varela residents, she still had some basic knowledge of this kind of weapon in the prosperous era.
Boom...
accompanied by the rumble of the explosion from high in the sky, those missiles speeding in the sky seemed to have suffered some blows, and they turned into groups of bright fireballs in the air.
Almost at the same time, when no one noticed, a smooth spherical drone rushed out of the ventilation duct on the top of the North Church and rose straight into the sky!
"Your Excellency the Pope!"
Hong Chengdong, who came back to his senses, was full of anxiety and uneasiness on his face: "You..."
"Don't worry."
Xu Huai nodded, trying to keep a calm demeanor as much as possible, and then turned and walked towards the North Church behind him.
But her slightly hurried footsteps still exposed her anxious mood at this time.
Walking into the church, looking at the server array displayed in the church hall, Xu Huai took a deep breath.
"Order, close the city gates, and the city of Varela enters a state of war!"
A stiff electronic synthesized voice came from the North Church.
"Identity confirmed, hello, Your Holiness the Pope."
"The order has been successfully confirmed."
The signal quickly spread along the fiber optic network to the Wall of Sighs surrounding the city of Varela.
There was almost no waiting time. Thousands of drones seized from the intelligent machines rose from the top of the Wall of Sighs and began to patrol along the tall Wall of Sighs.
Not only that, the shrill alarm sound also began to echo throughout the city of Varela.
After a short reaction time, the armored guards completed the assembly work near the Wall of Sighs.
Not only that, along with the piercing alarm, the survivors from the Kukan Underground City also raised their weapons and rushed towards the Wall of Sighs. At present, Varela City has almost no city defense force. According to the previous agreement, once Varela City enters a state of war, the survivors of the Kukan Underground City will take on the task of guarding Varela City.
As for the natives of Varela City...
Under the leadership of the church clergy, they were not too panicked, but took up various logistical production work in an orderly manner.
At this moment, the huge Varela City was like a giant machine that began to operate. Although it was only a semi-finished product with defective quality, it could still show the prototype of a state machine.
Looking at the feedback information constantly refreshed on the screen beside him, Xu Huai breathed a sigh of relief.
"This is..."
Hong Chengdong's soft cry came from behind.
Xu Huai turned her head subconsciously and saw a silver-white spherical drone passing through the gate of the North Church and finally hovering steadily in front of her.
The holographic projection slowly unfolded, and a familiar voice came from the inside of the spherical drone.
"Hello, hello?"
"Can you hear me?"
...
"Yi, help me contact Xu Huai!"
Chen Fan took a deep breath and reached out without hesitation to press a button on the console.
A violent tremor came from the deck below him. The Hercules bulldozer, which was driving at high speed, completed an extremely smooth drifting action driven by the tracks.
Isa, who was standing next to Chen Fan, suddenly widened her eyes and stared at Chen Fan's actions.
Then, she subconsciously reached out and grabbed the console in front of her to prevent herself from being thrown away by the huge inertia.
Swish! !
The bulldozer successfully turned the direction of the front of the car and continued to accelerate!
"Brother Fan, you..."
Looking at the completely opposite driving direction, Gao Yuan's eyes revealed a trace of excitement: "Are you going to Varela City?"
"Nonsense!"
Chen Fan turned his head to look at Gao Yuan, and a gleam of light flashed in his eyes: "That's my mission score and credit points!!"
Despicable outsider... I'm wrong, he is the outsider.
Despicable intelligent machine! !
Anyone who violates my credit points will be punished no matter how far away they are! !
What?
Isn't it for Xu Huai who is the Pope in Varela?
Not familiar, really not familiar.
Mainly for credit points and task scores.
Chen Fan turned his head to look at the dial interface in the holographic projection beside him and said so.
"Sir Chen Fan, I have a question."
Isa hesitated again and again, and finally stretched out her slender mechanical finger and pointed to a button on the console: "Can you drive this bulldozer?"
Chen Fan was stunned for a moment, and didn't know why Isa asked this question: "... No, why do you ask this?"
"Then why just now..."
Isa imitated Chen Fan's actions and pressed the button on the console hard.
There was no response.
The Hercules bulldozer was still driving normally.
There was no deceleration or drift.
"..."
Chen Fan was silent for a moment, and finally gave an answer stutteringly: "This, isn't it to seem more in line with common sense?"
"And... Isa, isn't your focus a little too strange?"
Isa: "..."
Gao Yuan: "..."
"Communication connected." The electronic synthesized voice broke the eerie silence in the control room, "In addition, this bulldozer is currently controlled by this machine. Although this machine has blocked the control authority of the console, for the sake of safety, this machine recommends not to operate the console at will."
Chen Fan, Isa: "..."
"Cough!"
Chen Fan coughed hard, turned his head and looked at the holographic projection beside him: "Hello, hello?"
"Xu Huai, can you hear me?"
In the holographic projection, Xu Huai, who was wearing the Pope's robe, showed a gentle smile in his eyes: "Chen Fan?"
"Yes, it's me."
Looking at the familiar scene in the holographic projection, Chen Fan showed a fleeting smile on his face: "Damn, fortunately I had foresight and left a detection drone in Varela City, otherwise I wouldn't even know if someone took over my hometown..."
Chen Fan straightened his face: "The situation is urgent, I'll make it short."
"[Source], that artificial intelligence, she has discovered the problem of Varela City..."
"Varela City has now entered a state of war." Before Chen Fan finished speaking, Xu Huai's voice came into his ears clearly, "All the city defense drones have taken off, and the survivors of Kukan Underground City are about to arrive at the Wall of Sighs area."
Chen Fan was a little surprised: "...Such a quick reaction?"
"It's Uncle Dong's credit." Xu Huai turned his body and recorded Hong Chengdong standing at the door of the North Church into the camera.
Chen Fan smiled and nodded.
Although a lot of the arrangements were completed in such a short time due to the central control system of Varela City, it must be admitted that Xu Huai's daily efforts were indispensable.
It seems that Xu Huai is still quite suitable for the job of the Pope.
"In short, a small group of omnics have gathered near Varela City. It is estimated that it will not be long before these omnics will attack Varela City."
"I just made a simple assessment. With the protection of the Wall of Sighs and the city-guarding drones, these omnics should not be able to do anything to you in a short time."
Chen Fan pondered for a moment: "Hold on for half an hour, I will be able to reach the vicinity of Varela City soon."
As he said, he showed a relaxed smile on
his face: "Don't worry, the large forces of omnics are here, I will try my best to reduce the pressure on you." Xu Huai nodded gently, with a trace of worry in his eyes.
Half an hour?
Such a heavy Wall of Sighs can only hold on for half an hour?
And the large force he just mentioned...
What kind of situation is Chen Fan facing now?
Boom!!!
Just when Xu Huai was confused, a violent explosion sounded from the holographic projection.
"Warning, enemy drones are detected approaching..."
The familiar electronic synthesized voice also sounded.
Looking at the flash of explosion in the holographic projection, Xu Huai couldn't help but feel a pinch in his heart: "You..."
"Fuck!"
Chen Fan's full voice came from the holographic projection: "Do you really think I'm easy to bully?"
"One, take out all the antimatter bombs, I must teach these little bastards a good lesson today!"
"What the hell is called saturation bombing!"
As he spoke, accompanied by a flash of fluorescent green light, Chen Fan was wrapped in a set of matte black cool armor.
"Gao Yuan, you and Isa guard the control room, I'll go to the top to deal with those flies!"
Under Xu Huai's gaze, he raised his hand and fired a series of plasma bullets flashing with a faint blue light out of the severely damaged porthole.
On the other side, Gao Yuan held a rotary heavy machine gun, his face flushed slightly, and spewed deadly flames out of the porthole.
Isa held an old-fashioned rifle from the Kukan underground city, and accurately eliminated the fish that tried to attack the Hercules bulldozer.
Explosions and flames continued to come from the portholes, and the azure blue individual protection positions also rippled like water waves.
"Well, let's not talk about it for now. I'm a little busy here."
Perhaps noticing that the communication had not been cut off, Chen Fan turned his head and happily turned off the communication.
