At this moment, whether it was Jiang Baimian, Long Yuehong, or Bai Chen, similar thoughts flashed through their hearts:
How come?
In their common sense, robot warriors are the best choice to deal with "high mindlessness", and it stands to reason that there should be no problems.
Of course, this is only common sense for them, most people in Tarnan are not very clear about the specific situation of the Awakened and the "High Mindless", but they have seen the strength of the robot warriors and feel that a full ten members of the Robot Guard are enough to deal with the trouble in the southwest mountainous area.
This can deal with an ordinary army!
Who knows, they just lost contact.
This made the townspeople of Tarnan, who were still very secure last night, panic instantly.
In the entire Tarnan, there were only twenty-four members of the Robot Guard, and nearly half of them were gone!
——The members of the Robot Guard are all intelligent robots, and the one responsible for monitoring, repairing, and cleaning is not the same model.
"The situation in the mountains may be more complicated than we think." Jiang Baimian withdrew his gaze and said considerately, "Maybe it's not just a matter of 'higher mindlessness'."
As soon as she finished speaking, Shang Jianyao said thoughtfully:
"I thought of someone."
"Who?" Jiang Baimian had a vague premonition, but still asked.
Shang Jianyao sighed, showing a very missing expression:
"Xiao Chong."
"What do you mean......" Jiang Baimian forcibly lowered his voice, "That 'higher mindless person' is not an ordinary 'high mindless person', has reached the level of Xiao Chong?"
Although several members of the "Old Tune Group" have not really seen Xiao Chong's ability, one or two can be imagined from the fact that many "high-level mindless people" spontaneously protected him and obeyed his orders.
If you correspond the ordinary "High Mindless Person" with the awakened person of the "Hall of Stars" and "Sea of Origin", then Xiao Chong is at least the kind that has entered the "Spiritual Corridor", not even worse than Yan Hu, and maybe even stronger.
"Maybe." Shang Jianyao said calmly, "I'm just thinking, what will happen if Xiao Chong meets the 'higher mindless person' in the mountains? Will you make him obedient?"
Speaking of this, his eyes lit up, he clenched his right fist and slapped his left palm:
"If I pretend to be Xiao Chong, will it have a similar effect?"
"You're too tall." Jiang Baimian gave up reasoning and pointed to the core of the problem.
"Yes." Shang Jianyao sighed again, "Even if I walk on my knees, I am taller than him."
Good guy, you really care about your friend's height...... While rejoicing that it was not herself who was inadvertently ridiculed, Long Yuehong scolded her.
With Shang Jianyao's interruption, Jiang Baimian and the others quickly restrained their moods and looked at the specific description of the task.
At the end of the reading, Long Yuehong couldn't help but speak:
"This task only has 500 credit points?"
The mission rating is only B, which is only one level higher than the investigation by Liu Dazhuang in Wild Grass City.
Although the latter involves the city lord's mansion and is valued by the higher-ups, it is still just a case that looks relatively ordinary on the surface, and now this task has been filled with ten members of the robot guard, and they can all wrestle arms with the city defense army of Weeds City.
Of course, the premise is that the latter did not arrange positions in advance so that various heavy weapons were in place.
Jiang Baimian also found it strange, but after thinking about it for a while, he understood the reason:
"This is just investigating the relevant situation, and not allowing you to directly deal with the 'higher mindless person'."
This is a reconnaissance mission, not a monster cleanup, and the danger is indeed dangerous, but it is certainly much better than facing a terrifying target head-on.
Bai Chen nodded:
"If you're lucky, you might not be in danger."
For example, the "High Mindless" has shifted its location, leaving behind the battlefield and corresponding traces of the battle with the Robot Guard.
At that time, even if the members of the Robot Guard have been destroyed, they can trace back the specific situation by retrieving the "black box" on them and find useful information.
"The remuneration is also very generous." Jiang Baimian added another sentence.
The bounty is the mayor of Tarnan Town, Gnawa, who will prepare ten non-intelligent combat robots to distribute to relic hunters who investigate important intelligence.
If you don't want a robot, you can choose other supplies of the same value.
"Do you want to pick it up?" Shang Jianyao asked with great interest.
Jiang Baimian glanced at him:
"This is a bit dangerous, we are not real relic hunters, we need to make a living by completing tasks."
Shang Jianyao explained to himself:
"I want to exchange the reward for a robot that can turn into a car."
"Uh......" Jiang Baimian hesitated.
This sounds pretty good.
However, it is not enough to let the "old tune team" take such a big risk......
In case that "high mindless person" really reached the level of Xiao Chong, this time he couldn't expect a big guy like Du Heng to pass by.
At this time, Bai Chen calmly added:
"You can also change it to the request of seeing the 'source brain'."
"It's ...... it too" Jiang Baimian frowned slightly and was silent for a while.
Just when Shang Jianyao was about to say something more, she exhaled and smiled:
"You shouldn't make such a hasty decision.
"First, we need to confirm whether we can exchange the reward for seeing the 'source brain', and secondly, we need to collect all the information we can collect in Tarnan to analyze how risky it is......"
After saying that, she turned around and walked towards the gate of the Hunter Guild.
At this time, Long Yuehong said weakly:
"Didn't Gnava refuse our request to see the 'Source Brain'?"
"Yes...... Then wait a little longer." Only then did Jiang Baimian realize that the road was not blocked yet, and there was no need to change direction in such a hurry.
Anyway, it seems that the matter in the southwest mountainous area will not be resolved for a while.
…………
The next morning, as soon as the "Old Tune Team" finished its morning training, a member of the Robot Guard wearing a dark green military uniform and carrying a single bazooka came to the "Dream" Hotel.
"Is there something wrong?" Jiang Baimian and others, who received the phone call from the room, went downstairs and asked.
The robot guard member with blue eyes flashed replied in a magnetic but emotionless voice:
"Chief Gnawa asked me to tell you that no one was seen in the 'Source Brain'."
"Okay." Jiang Baimian knew that he was not the right master in front of him, so he didn't say much.
When the robot guard member left the hotel, the proprietress Aino sitting at the front desk asked curiously:
"Do you want to see 'Source Brain'?"
"Why, do you have a way?" Jiang Baimian asked in slight surprise.
Shang Jianyao had already rushed in front of Aino.
Today, Aino, who had changed into a cashmere dress and was still dressed gorgeously, glanced at Shang Jianyao and said with a smile:
"I have never seen the 'source brain', how can there be a way?"
Speaking of this, she changed her subject:
"'Mechanical Paradise' is very concerned about the old world and has been looking for relevant people."
"For example, Maximian?" Jiang Baimian instantly made an association.
Aino laughed, as if a flower was blooming:
"The little girl is very smart.
"I once heard my elders mention this person and say that he is the chief scientist of the Third Research Institute."
"Third Research Institute?" Jiang Baimian naturally thought of Qiao Chu and the Eighth Research Institute behind him.
"Yes." Aino nodded, "I don't know exactly what it is, I only know that there are nine similar research institutes. They are research institutions jointly established by the most powerful Grey Earth nation and the most powerful Red River Man nation before the destruction of the Old World, and the main purpose seems to be, facing the future?"
The past of this hotel proprietress is also a story, she knows so much...... After Jiang Baimian listened, he sighed silently.
"Thank you." She expressed her gratitude sincerely.
"How can you just say thank you?" Aino smiled and said, "I have to let these two handsome guys spend one night with me."
"Cough, cough......" Long Yuehong was almost choked to death by her own saliva.
"Okay, okay." Shang Jianyao said excitedly, "We can dance, sing, play cards, compete, wait, wait."
"Okay, just kidding." Aino smiled and shook his head, "I, an old man with old arms and legs, can't stand the toss of young people."
Why are these words so familiar? Ah yes, President Gu Bo also said...... Long Yuehong was stunned for a moment, and then woke up.
After bidding farewell to Aino, Jiang Baimian directly asked Bai Chen to drive to Hexi and go to the town hall to ask for a meeting with Ternan Town Mayor and Robot Guard Captain Gnawa.
The town affairs hall is located in a ten-story building in Hedong, and the glass curtain wall is wiped clean, reflecting every inch of gold in the sun.
As soon as they walked in, Jiang Baimian, Shang Jianyao and the others saw the so-called cleaning robot, which looked like a mop and grew a number of mechanical tentacles with suction cups that could wrap around things.
This allows it to clean from the floor all the way to the ceiling.
In addition to cleaning robots, there are also combat robots loaded with many weapon modules, trash can robots responsible for playing light music, pet robots shaped like cats and dogs, and so on.
Among them, there are only a few intelligent robots wearing clothes, and the number is extremely rare.
After a rumor, the "old tune team" met the robot mayor Gnawa in an office on the top floor.
It was still wearing the military uniform, standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, looking northeast.
When the four people of the "Old Tune Group" approached, it turned around and said in that mellow baritone voice:
"What else do you have?
"If you want to see the 'source brain', there is no room for change."
Jiang Baimian responded with a smile:
"If we investigate the matter of the 'High Mindless' in the southwest mountainous area and find the members of the Guard who lost contact, will we be able to see the 'Source Brain'?"
Gnava was silent for a while and said:
"I can help you ask for instructions again, but I don't make any guarantees.
"If it really doesn't work, you can choose other rewards."
This was the expected answer, and Jiang Baimian said instead:
"Actually, what you want to solve in the southwest mountainous area is very simple.
"After initially figuring out the approximate range, we will launch missiles over there, do saturated artillery bombardment, and use various means to plow there."
This is the most effective way for the human army to deal with the "High Mindless", but it consumes too much ammunition, but the "Mechanical Heaven" should be able to withstand it.
Gnawa paced a few trails:
"One is the problem of efficiency, the second is that the terrain in the mountainous area is complex, there are too many places to hide, and the third is ......"
It paused and said:
"Those ten members of the guard are my companions, and I don't want to take any risks until I am sure of their situation."
