Darkness is Coming

In the independent command room on the top floor of the joint headquarters of the magic tide operation, Zhou Tianming stood respectfully beside Yang Xiaoqian, staring at the display screen. The command of the Magic Tide Quick Response Unit can be handed over to the Joint Finger. Even the commander-in-chief Fang Yu left the command post and went into battle in person in armor and armor. Zhou Tianming naturally returned to Yang Xiaoqian.

Yang Xiaoqian is looking up at the sky. The thick protective layers on the ceiling are indented to both sides. Through the high-strength tempered glass, he can directly see the sky, but the distance is too far, and only an abstract painting can be seen with the naked eye. War art paintings, can not see the actual situation.

   Maybe his neck was a little sore after looking up for a long time, Yang Xiaoqian reached out and patted the back of his neck.

   "Tianming."

   Zhou Tianming immediately looked away, holding a cigarette case in both hands and handing it to Yang Xiaoqian.

   "No." Yang Xiaoqian waved his hand and asked, "Tianming, what degree of wisdom do you think that dragon has?"

  In normal times, Zhou Tianming would pretend to think for a while before giving the answer. First, he showed that he had thought carefully about President Yang's question before answering, and secondly, he could slightly restrain his edge.

But now is wartime, efficiency is the first important factor, and President Yang is not a leader who is jealous, so Zhou Tianming immediately replied: "After the first round of surface-to-air missile launches caused damage to the dragon, it did not Angrily dives towards the missile launcher, but expands its body and climbs upwards, releasing puppets to resist the surface-to-air missiles, which shows that the dragon has only seen the power and speed of the surface-to-air missiles once before clearly realizing the relationship between the two sides. It should have a high degree of intelligence to address gaps in capabilities and quickly find ways to deal with it.”

   "Well." Yang Xiaoqian, who has nationalism and human supremacist tendencies, also has to admit that the intelligence of this dragon in the sky will not be lower than that of humans, and even surpass that of most human individuals.

   For humans on earth, the appearance and ability of the dragon are deviated from the definition of "dragon" in various magical works, but after all, there is not much strangeness. As soon as the magic dragon appears, people can spontaneously unify the name of it. It can be seen that under the influence of various fantasy works, humans have a basic understanding of the magic dragon, but now it seems that these cognitions are all wrong. of.

The    Demon Dragon should be completely unfamiliar with the world's technological system and fighting methods. Even if this dragon in the sky has been to another earth, it is impossible for it to understand the combat laws of the modern air force and air defense system.

A powerful creature, entering a completely unfamiliar environment, can adapt to the environment in such a short period of time, can remain calm and analyze feasible coping methods after being hit by a headache, neither anger and lose reason nor flee in a hurry. It does not conform to most people's cognition of "dragon" as a creature.

  The unfamiliarity with a familiar appearance but a sense of deception is the most headache, Yang Xiaoqian feels that his head starts to hurt again.

"Tianming, think about another question, why after being injured by a surface-to-air missile, the dragon climbed directly into the sky, but did not think about leaving this area and flying to other places? This does not affect it releasing those hidden in it. The dragon in the body intercepts the missile."

Zhou Tianming thought for a while, then shook his head and said, "President, I don't understand either, maybe it's the difference in the way of thinking? It may not be appropriate to use our way of thinking to substitute for a dragon. Maybe this is a subtle coincidence. Coincidence in our favor?"

  There is no obvious logical loophole in Zhou Tianming's words. Humans and dragons are two kinds of creatures. Chimpanzees, whose genes are very similar to humans, still cannot understand the way of thinking of human beings, let alone the dragons from another world? Empathy may not be suitable.

If this is just a coincidence, then this coincidence is indeed beneficial to our own side. When the dragon flies from a low altitude to other cities, the interception cost will be greatly increased, and it is likely to cause a large number of casualties. After the dragon climbs high, it encounters a fighter jet team. Best result yet.

"Well... Maybe empathy doesn't really apply, but let's make an assumption." Yang Xiaoqian rubbed his temples, and the feeling of rubbing his hair with his fingertips would give Yang Xiaoqian more inspiration, "The bigger the space crack, the more The stronger the monsters released, the more powerful monsters we have seen, this dragon should be in the upper reaches of the otherworldly creature chain, or even at the top. Assuming that I am that dragon, I will come from the crack in space. I came out and found a world I didn’t know anything about. The ground was full of big guys hundreds of meters high looking up at me, motionless, and then a few stick-like things hit me too quickly to react. , causing huge damage to me... The familiar monsters below are being slaughtered by some very small monsters, and the big guys who are hundreds of meters high or even hundreds of meters are still motionless, just staring at me like that... Looking in other directions, there are quite a few big guys..."

Yang Xiaoqian's voice gradually deepened, Zhou Tianming understood what President Yang was talking about. For the dragon, the most threatening are those high-rise buildings that are much larger than it, and there are also many high-rise buildings in other cities. , Although there are many gaps between these big men, it is not a wise choice to approach them rashly before confirming their strength. But at the same time, as a creature in the upper reaches or even the top of the biological chain, the dragon should not be easily frightened by a strange object and flee in a hurry.

   What would I do if I were the dragon? Zhou Tianming asked himself in his heart, and soon thought of an answer: I will stay away from these large and threatening strange objects as quickly as possible, and find a safe area for observation.

   "What do you think?" Yang Xiaoqian turned to look at Zhou Tianming.

   When President Yang asked questions, he was either targeting areas he did not understand, or was testing and raising points. He rarely asked questions in an uncertain tone, so Zhou Tianming knew that President Yang really needed his own advice this time.

"It's very possible." Zhou Tianming affirmed Yang Xiaoqian's assumption, and then continued to extend along this basis, "If your assumption is true, the magic dragon will encounter an Air Force fighter jet immediately after it takes off, and it will find that some small objects also have It has extremely strong killing ability, but the big guys on the ground are as motionless as mountains. With the understanding and thinking ability displayed by the dragon, it will soon understand that fighter planes are not suitable for low-altitude combat, let alone in high-rise buildings. The city is fighting at low altitude, and the city on the ground is not as dangerous as imagined..."

   "Ah!" Zhou Tianming couldn't help but exclaimed, "It will come back! It will shrink and fly back to the ground!"

  Yang Xiaoqian nodded slowly, his face sinking like water.

   Zhou Tianming seemed to have been punched heavily, and his entire body shook. Then Zhou Tianming calmed down forcibly and said, "President, we must immediately notify the Joint Index, so that they can prepare for interception and low-altitude attack!"

   "Well, go ahead." Yang Xiaoqian stepped aside from the podium and turned his eyes to the sky again.

   "President?" Zhou Tianming didn't know why.

   "That guy Yu Qian couldn't help rushing up, hey, I'll accompany him." Yang Xiaoqian waved his hand, signaling Zhou Tianming to hurry up.

"President..." Zhou Tianming wanted to say something else, but Yang Xiaoqian didn't give him a chance. The high-strength tempered glass on top of his head shattered into powder, and a thick black smeared with dim light rose into the sky. Zhou Tianming vaguely seemed to I saw three chains on President Yang's forehead.

   With the existing Awakened squads and gunship formations, if you want to fight the dragon at a low altitude in the city surrounded by high-rise buildings, even if you can win, it will be a tragic victory, so the casualties may be ten times more than before.

Therefore, no matter what, we cannot let the dragon fly down. As one of the top commanders in Nandu, Yang Xiaoqian finally found an absolute reason to give up his own safety at the time when this battle was about to end. The battle is over.

   "The Son of Heaven guards the gate of the country, and the king dies in the community."

   "Today, let's be the emperor of Nandu!"
