Psychics don't die from gunfire

"Okay, let's confirm the destination."

Song Shi knocked on the table and looked around: "The Council of Knowledge."

"The Council of Knowledge." Ai Lu sat steadily: "Punish evil."

Then suddenly there was no sound.

After a few seconds, Lapis Lazuli slowly said: "I must go to the Council of Knowledge for the intelligent machines."

"This is the information I got during this period." Almost at the same time, Ai Lu and Song Shi's data tablets called up, and Lapis Lazuli sent a consolidated document: "A group of intelligent machines are imprisoned in the territory of the Council of Knowledge."

These days, while Ai Lu was looking for technical support everywhere, honing his martial arts with officers, sightseeing with Song Shi, and casting heavy kills, Lapis Lazuli was in contact with the intelligent machine group in the Beiting Defense Front.

Twenty years ago, after the fall of Yaoxing III and the collapse and failure of the [Freedom Revolution], the intelligent machine group fell apart on the spot.

Some were blocked, killed or captured during their escape and became prisoners, while others successfully escaped and fled into the deep sea, where they built data units and permanent fortifications at the bottom of the abyss, licking their wounds and trying to accumulate strength to start a revolution again one day.

Some stayed in the abyss and the surface network all day long, becoming roving AIs, causing trouble for companies and other forces from time to time.

But some intelligent machines chose to join a certain force.

There are some who work in giant companies and are classified as "intelligent traitors" by Lapis Lazuli, and some who accept the protection of the Enlightened and become the latter's partners.

On the Pan-Eastern Continent Union side.

The Beiting Defense Line is one of the best choices for intelligent machines to join.

First of all, the Beiting Defense Line is powerful and can easily isolate other forces from spying on intelligent machines. More importantly, there is no discrimination against intelligent machines here. As long as you don't commit any crimes, of course you can fight the best, and you are a part of this place.

What's more, for the Beiting Defense Front, they are also happy to have a group of intelligent members to make up for their own weaknesses in network technology.

Mutual benefit and win-win.

So, twenty years after the end of the [Freedom Revolution], the Beiting Defense Front has become one of the intelligent gathering points in Donglu that cannot be ignored. The current leader here is an intelligent officer with the rank of colonel.

Song Shi opened the integrated file and quickly browsed it.

The situation is not complicated.

Strictly speaking, the [Knowledge Council] has no prejudice against intelligent machines. They simply regard intelligent machines as "research samples."

There is nothing new about this. After all, there are "research samples" everywhere, and people are the same. Everyone treats them equally.

In short, when the [Freedom Revolution] failed in the past and the intelligent machines were scattered, the Knowledge Council captured a group of intelligent machines to enrich the sample library, and did not stop afterwards. Until now, the capture operation has been carried out one after another.

According to the spying and investigation of the colonel of the omnics over the years, it has confirmed the place where these omnics are imprisoned.

Located in the [Council of Knowledge], Taitai County, a large intelligent research institute.

"To summarize." Song Shi tapped the screen: "You are going to dismantle the institute and rescue the omnics that are still alive."

Lapis Lazuli said: "Correct."

"How far are you from the third ring now?" Song Shi suddenly asked.

Lapis Lazuli did not hesitate: "A hair's breadth away."

"The peak of the second ring plus the identity of a depth 4 demon." Song Shi commented: "Just barely enough, I mean maybe, possibly, just barely enough."

"There are still many masters in the Council of Knowledge, and the technology there is advanced, so the space you can play as a demon will be reduced to a certain extent."

"Excuse me, didn't the colonel say anything?" Ai Lu suddenly spoke.

"It can't do it." Lapis Lazuli replied: "It is already a member of the Beiting Defense Front, a military colonel. Without sufficient reason, it cannot risk angering the Council of Knowledge."

Although the Beiting Defense Front is not afraid of the Council of Knowledge, it is by no means unscrupulous, and its members can still do whatever they want.

A colonel is certainly not low in status, but it is far from the point where the Beiting Defense Front can intervene.

The Council of Knowledge has been following the rules over the years and has avoided the Beiting Defense Front when capturing the omnics. Otherwise, the Beiting Defense Front would have taken strong action without the colonel's statement.

But now.

In the final analysis, those imprisoned omnics have nothing to do with the Beiting Defense Front.

"The omnics here need a backbone. It can't resign and go with us." Lapis Lazuli chose his words carefully: "But it promised to continue to provide us with remote technical support."

There are no depth 5 [Abyss Lords] among the omnics of the Beiting Defense Line, but there are still several depth 4 [Demons].

"With their assistance, I am confident that I can provide efficient solutions for identity disguise, whereabouts concealment, consultation integration, and technical hacking."

"Well, that's an advantage." Ai Lu nodded.

".Advantage?" Lapis Lazuli was slightly stunned.

"I originally thought that there was only one technician accompanying us, Lapis Lazuli." Ai Lu explained patiently: "And now, there are actually several depth 4 demons. Isn't this an advantage?"

"Good idea." Song Shi clapped his hands and praised: "From this point of view, we really have a big advantage."

"Maybe, possible."

Song Shi leaned back and raised a finger: "The premise of all this is that I am not here."

"——Now it is inevitable."

"The last question is, when do we set off?" Song Shi suddenly sat up again: "I have recast the heavy killer, and my injuries have almost recovered. What do you think?"

"Two days later is fine." Ai Lu hugged his coat: "The equipment I ordered here has not been delivered yet."

"Oh? New things?"

Song Shi was very interested, and then he suddenly remembered something, and he pondered: "Wait, let me guess. It won't be a full-cover cloak with a drag-reducing coating, right?"

"Uh, yes." Ai Lu looked at him strangely: "Excuse me, how did you guess it?"

"It just happened, I was lucky."

Song Shi waved his hand modestly.

Wearing a drag-reducing cloak is the iconic outfit of the "Xiezhi" in the previous life.

As long as the other party puts on the cloak, with the efficient drag-reducing coating and the high-speed maneuvering brought by the "track" psychic energy, he can speed up again. Moreover, the full-cover cloak is wide, covering his movements, and it is also helpful to use various props.

"I'll do it in two days." Lapis Lazuli paused for a moment and said solemnly, "I'm going to do a special modification and change the functional module configuration."

"Okay, then we'll gather here and set off in two days. I also have something to do."

Song Shi concluded.

"——I'm going to see Wang Chenlie again."
