From Titan Corporation to the Empire of Man

Chapter 57 Extreme Test
  Orbital air strike?

After hearing their father's words, the expressions of the three original bodies became much more solemn.

More than a year has passed since the space door to Universe Zero-2 was opened, and the three brothers Sanguinius, Robert (Guilliman), and Leon have also undergone significant changes.

Sanguinius and Robert are no longer the "teenagers" they were last year, but have grown into real "young men". They have both reached a height of about 1.93 or 94 meters, which is already as high as their father's shoulders.

If you include the wings on his back, then Sanguinius is at least two meters tall. However, the body proportions of the two original bodies are very well-proportioned and standard. Even with white wings, there is not much sense of inconsistency.

Both of them put on black formal clothes, with red "Λ" metal buttons on the cuffs and collars, but Sanguinius liked his hair to be casually scattered, while Robert had a neat short hairstyle.

As for Leon, the young "Lion King", his height and body shape are far less majestic than those of his two brothers and his father, "only" 1.4 meters.

His face is still childish, and he also has long golden hair, but in comparison, Leon's hairstyle seems to have been carefully taken care of, not as casual as Sanguinius's.

Go into the elevator.

After the elevator gate closed and the four of them, father and son, were taken to the top, Sui Yang continued: "According to the report of the investigators who infiltrated Walter International, the other party's senior management is about to carry out a series of attacks.

Even though we have made some concessions in the military industry, our achievements in other fields have made the other party feel a great threat, prompting the other party to intentionally send their mutant puppets in an attempt to secretly sabotage and destroy the company's overseas assets. Reuse the media to amplify negative news. "

At this point, the elevator stopped and re-opened the gate.

Sui Yang took the lead to walk to another underground corridor outside the elevator, then glanced at his sons beside him with his peripheral vision, and said in a slightly serious tone:
  "When I was teaching you, I emphasized the importance of bearing humiliation and not acting impulsively, but in the eyes of your opponents, so-called patience will gradually become a sign of weakness and withdrawal.

Although Walt is not just targeting Atlas, the investigators' report also clearly mentioned that the overseas assets of Lockheed Martin, Boeing and other arms companies will also be secretly sabotaged by mutant puppets, using threats to... To increase Vought International's leverage in negotiations, but kids, remember that other thing I told you...

If the other party is pointing fingers and scolding you, and has raised his hand to slap you, but you are still tolerating or waiting, and still holding out hope for relief, then you have gone from bearing the humiliation to a true coward or a clown. "

"Father..." Hearing this, Robert, who had gone through the period of changing his voice, was the first to take over the words: "You just said that we were going to carry out an orbital air strike. Are you preparing to carry out a physical attack on Walter first?"

"The best defense is to take the initiative to attack." Sanguinius also echoed.

"." Leon, the youngest, remained silent and did not express any opinion.

At this moment.

The four father and son also came from the corridor to an office that also had an observation window.

However, the scene outside the window is not a simulated town for experimental purposes, but an underground production base that occupies a wider area.

I saw countless automated robotic arms working in an orderly and tireless manner.

Several of the large robotic arms even use some kind of 3D printing technology to "scan" the metal frames of large vehicles.

Between each assembly line, orange-painted robots that look like large spiders shuttle, either to assist production or to continuously excavate and expand the scale of the production base.

Of course, there are still a large number of human employees responsible for key aspects of the production line to avoid errors, and these employees are equipped with "stilt"-style mechanical skeletons. There are also many mechas that look similar to AMP, but use the black and orange paint of the engineering department, and are responsible for carrying heavy objects and construction tasks.

Come to the observation window.

Sui Yang put his hands behind his back, looked out the window at the construction base, and explained to his sons: "Physical means of attack are inevitable, and at the same time, we must make decisions before taking action.

The investigators cannot obtain Walter's specific destruction target, and we cannot bet our fate on the enemy's choice, let alone have any luck. Therefore, I will "plunder" Walter's high-value assets.

Outside the United States, we can arrange for the ARS company to camouflage and infiltrate. However, during military operations in the United States, the ARS company will face many problems, such as avoiding the tracking of mutant puppets and quietly plundering samples and data. Gao, after all, we are not the only company that owns military satellites.

But our Eneo is located in a space orbit higher than military satellites, and the ones involved in the raid are biological weapons like Tyrant that can perform suicide missions. So, what do you think the enemy will think? "

Hearing this, the office fell into a brief silence.

However, Leon, who had been silent, noticed that the two brothers seemed to be deliberately delaying their response, as if giving him a chance to speak, and immediately said:

"It will be confusing, because the fictional space invasion in the comic book story has actually come true, and we can also use Vought's paint to confuse the public and pour dirty water on themselves."

"really."

"Yes."

Sanguinius and Robert nodded together.

"Haha." Sensing the emotional fluctuations of the three brothers, Sui Yang smiled, without going into details, and gave an explanation:
  “As you may think, the purpose of letting Sanguinius board the Enio is, on the one hand, to prepare for unexpected situations, and on the other hand, it is to consider that the raid may be intercepted by the motherland and fail.

The plunder target is less than 300 kilometers away from New York. We have ways to deal with the American interception system, but the people of the motherland have their own consciousness and will not be fooled by illusions. They can directly destroy the airdrop pods, making it impossible for the two tyrants to engage in a head-on confrontation with the people of the motherland. .

If Walter directly dispatches the Motherland, then this will be a rare window, an opportunity to test the limits of the Motherland. As for the executor... Sanguinius will be in charge. " Sui Yang looked at Sanguinius and asked in a slow tone:

"Son, this is the first time we have had this conversation, but you can choose to refuse. I can also cancel the confrontation test, not obtain the data of the motherland, and directly use [Reset] to go back to yesterday and redeploy the air strike. Plan, it all depends on your personal wishes.”

"I am not afraid of pain and death, father." Sanguinius smiled instead: "Besides, I have long wanted to teach that clown in tights a lesson!"

"."

Seeing this, Sui Yang didn't say anything, he just raised his left hand and patted his son on the shoulder.

Immediately afterwards, he walked to the desk and made some operations to make a three-dimensional hologram of the earth appear in the center of the office.

Green, yellow, and red areas are also marked on the miniature Earth. The yellow and red areas actually occupy about 60% of the area of ​​each continent. Only a small number of areas are marked green, which represents safety.

Looking at the hologram, Sui Yang continued: "The situation on Earth Zero One (Edge of Tomorrow) is becoming increasingly chaotic and civil war continues. I think it is time for the company to officially intervene."
