Chapter 438: Chapter 332: Troops Do Not Move, Food and Fodder Go First_1 Chapter 438: Chapter 332: Troops Do Not Move, Food and Fodder Go First_1 After determining his next target, Duanmu Huai didn’t imdiately summon the Star Realm Army to head to the planet. Instead, he began to consider his next strategy.
Strictly speaking, the enemies players hate most in the ga, apart from the Chaos Evil Gods, are the green skins, bug swarm, and artificial intelligence.
The reason is simple, they are annoying, and very difficult to eradicate completely.
The bug swarm is self-explanatory, they consu all organic matter, proliferate after eating, and reproduce at a rate that gives people headaches.
The reproductive ability of the green skins is even stronger than that of a bug swarm, they belong to the rare race that can directly and brutally overwhelm a bug swarm in numbers.
Artificial intelligence is also annoying for the sa reason – easy to kill but hard to completely exterminate.
There are often plotlines in movies where a powerful chanical race launches an attack on humans, who have billions of armies. Humanity is in danger, then the protagonist fights to the death to eradicate the “mother” entity which controls everything, causing the whole chanical race to self-destruct and be completely destroyed… isn’t that how it usually goes?
But in fact, it’s all for show!
In movies or gas, they always show this as a hive model… but have you ever seen a bee colony die because the queen died?
In nature, even if the queen of a bee colony dies for so reason, worker bees will imdiately “breed” a new queen. The death of the original queen will cause a certain impact on the colony, but once a new queen is born, the whole colony will return to normal.
So the situation shown in movies is purely for dramatic effect, at most they would be in chaos for a while and then a new mother machine would be made.
Eywa of Pandora is similar, mainly because it’s still young, has not experienced any threats, and therefore, lacks this kind of experience. Otherwise, even if Duanmu Huai destroys its main body, it may distribute its remaining consciousness in a distributed manner and then find an opportunity to revive itself.
In that case… Duanmu Huai could only resort to earthshattering ans.
In this sense, the players prefer fighting the followers of the Brutal God since they straightforwardly fight. Whether they win or lose, they simply fight.
Unlike these troubleso creatures, you might kill them only to discover they’ve resurrected sowhere else.
The plague is actually annoying as well, but at least… Duanmu Huai currently has a solution.
However, this chanized intelligence crisis cannot be just solved with firepower. If you don’t find a way to completely kill them, it’s an endless cycle of death and rebirth.
However, there are not absolutely no corresponding thods, similar to how Imu Parasites can be completely eradicated by a stable and suitable ultrasound. As long as Duanmu Huai finds an effective thod, it won’t be too difficult to completely eliminate or destroy the chanized intelligence.
The prerequisite is… he needs to have the right people on his side.
Just like having top-notch biologists like Rebecca and Sherry, you need one to deal with this trouble.
If you have one, these troubles are not troubles.
If you don’t have one… now that’s really troubleso.
And right now… Duanmu Huai is in the second situation.
He has nobody competent to take up the task and there’s no thod to resolve the intelligence crisis.
So, he did not rush in with his troops imdiately but instead, first looked for the key to resolving the crisis – talent.
Unfortunately, talents aren’t easy to find.
The reason is simple.
Biologists, for example, aren’t too hard to find – you could find a few top-notch individuals who also have normal moral values.
However, people like hackers mainly consist of anti-governnt or anarchists. They live free lives and do whatever they want to do. Honestly, from the Tribunal’s perspective, they are basically the vanguard of fallen chaos.
No loyalty whatsoever.
So, trying to find a hacker who is loyal, pure, and won’t fall into chaos…
…is even harder than finding a virgin in a bar.
“Ah… It’s really a headache…!!!”
Duanmu Huai also held his head in agony. The worlds he visits generally don’t have advanced technology or sufficient levels of civilization. In fact, even in the ga, characters like this are the rarest. Generally, the guilds that are able to obtain such talent will treat them as elites. By the end of the ga, during the final battle with the Chaos Evil Gods, the characters who made a difference in the cyber war were only a few.
If it doesn’t work, he’ll just have to poach soone.
“Hmm… if I rember correctly, the Triangle Guild does have an NPC who is especially good in this area… what was his na again… hmm…”
Duanmu Huai frowned, trying to recall. He rembered that there was such an NPC in the Triangle Guild in the ga. He was a backline support NPC and had little to do with the frontline fighter Duanmu Huai. He rembered this particular NPC because there was once a “beauty list” or sothing like that on the forum. It listed all the characters created by Duanmu Huai, several player characters were on the list, they were all good looking and powerful, then there were a few NPCs, among them there was one good at cyber war.
Because of this, Duanmu Huai had a bit of an impression of the people in the list. But… not a very deep one, he had forgotten the na now, but he rembered the looks. Although the other party was backline support, his cyber warfare capabilities were indeed first-rate. After all, there were not many who could resist the Electronic Demon of the Cunning Deception face to face, right?
Unfortunately, the two never t. Duanmu Huai only rembered so of the information listed in the forum, and he wasn’t very clear about the details.
If he rembers correctly, it seed to originate from the Galaxy 59?
He had no choice but to go there and find out for himself.
When it cos to finding people, Duanmu Huai is not very good at it, but that doesn’t an he has no thods.
Just like what he’s doing right now.
“Answer my question honestly, and I’ll spare your life.”
Looking at the trembling captain in front of him, Duanmu Huai raised his chainsaw sword and placed it on the other’s neck, speaking coldly.
Yes, Duanmu Huai’s idea was simple. If he didn’t know the situation, there must be people in Galaxy 59 who did. So, he took a team of the Star Realm Army to Galaxy 59 and saw that this place had already entered the age of space civilization.
That made things much easier.
So Duanmu Huai directly boarded a spaceship, ambushed the crew, rushed into their command room, and captured them.
“You, could you please tell …”
The captain of the spaceship in front of Duanmu Huai, who was dressed head-to-toe in a skull motif, was paralyzed by fear, so it’s no surprise that he was scared pissless. After all, just a mont ago, he was leisurely piloting his ship along a transport route, and the next mont a bizarrely shaped warship suddenly appeared beside him. The other party launched torpedoes and didn’t even wait for the captain to call for help before they directly ramd through the hull door.
Confronted with the glaring chainsaw sword, and the sight of this stranger who was a head and a half taller than him, decorated with skulls all over his armor, the captain was almost frightened to tears.
“Excellent, I want to ask if you know of an organization here called GTTO, or GOOT, or sothing?”
“G…… Do you an GOTT?”
“Seems so, yeah.”
All Duanmu Huai could rember was that the organization he used to belong to had a G and an O and a T…… If it wasn’t four characters, he would have called it GTO.
“What kind of organization is that?”
“That, that is……the Milky Way Trade Tax Institution……”
“The Tax Office?”
Hearing this, Duanmu Huai frowned. This could be a problem since he had never dealt with the tax office before.
“Well then.”
Duanmu Huai thought for a mont, then looked at the captain in front of him.
“Do you like money?”
“…………???”
Faced with Duanmu Huai’s question, the captain was stumped, only to see Duanmu Huai reach into his power armor and pull out a gold brick.
“Is this stuff valuable around here?”
“!!!”
Actually, there’s no need for the captain’s answer, seeing his eyes light up, it was clear that this stuff had…… value here.
“Let’s make a deal. You help investigate so information, and I’ll give you a good reward. Is that okay? Don’t worry, I won’t make you do sothing risky, just gathering so intelligence.”
“This, this………”
Staring at the gold brick in Duanmu Huai’s hand, after hesitating for a mont, the captain eventually nodded his head.
“Of course, no problem.”
“Very well, then I’m looking for soone in GOTT, they probably look like this………”
Duanmu Huai slightly described the outward appearance of the other party, after all, her style of dress was truly unique and he thought it should be easy to find.
Sure enough, after hearing Duanmu Huai’s description, the captain imdiately opened the terminal, accessed the official website of GOTT, and entered the personnel list. In the list of personnel, Duanmu Huai did indeed find that person’s photo.
But, her job title surprised Duanmu Huai.
“Front desk?”
You’ve got to be kidding. The formidable character who could clash face-to-face with an electronic demon is actually working as a receptionist at the tax office?
This is a fucking joke……did I find the wrong person?
Duanmu Huai scrutinized the photo in front of him once again for a while.
There’s no mistake about it, her hairstyle is very unique, within this place the second person with the sa hairstyle does not exist, does she?
However, an unexpected event occurred at this mont. Just as Duanmu Huai was wondering if he made a mistake, the information in front of him suddenly flickered and the person’s photo vanished?!
“What’s going on?”
Duanmu Huai turned to look at the captain, who also shook his head in confusion.
“I, I don’t know either………”
“Do you have any information channels? Can you inquire about what happened?”
Duanmu Huai knew that most interstellar transporters often have their own information networks. He doesn’t have ti to investigate now, so he can only inquire. Of course, if he doesn’t know, Duanmu Huai might have to go directly to the tax office for confirmation……
“I’ll try……”
Under the threat of death and the temptation of money, the captain began to probe his own intelligence network, and indeed, he did receive so information.
“I heard sothing happened internally within GOTT. Soone defected, it seed to be her…… A warrant has been issued by GOTT.”
“Oh really.”
Upon hearing this, Duanmu Huai raised an eyebrow.
This is interesting. A receptionist, and you issue a warrant for her?
Well…… that ans the probability of her being the person he was looking for significantly increased.
“Thank you for your cooperation.”
Duanmu Huai put down his chainsaw sword, then casually tossed a heavy box in front of him.
“I believe you understand, don’t tell others about our conversation, ok? Great, let’s get going.”
It wasn’t until Duanmu Huai left with the Star Realm Army that the captain let out a huge sigh of relief, and then plopped down onto the floor.
Man…… that almost scared him to death!
