Chapter 710: Assignments

Immediately afterwards.

The Divine Body and MS formations that had fought with the Flood Demon Fleet at close range returned to the hangar after Selena relayed the order, and after receiving Kaisha's purification, they returned to the hangar completely.

Subsequently, the four protoplasma Spartans and Ivan, Nova, Shia and Megan also hurried to the bridge of the Star Destroyer.

(Robert and his Extreme Army, following the expeditionary force led by Mike, are still in the possession of the Covenant and annexed, so they are not in the Star Destroyer ship.)

Inside the bridge.

Most officers surrounded the center console on the second floor. Halsey and Serena stood around William. At the same time, Serena also controlled the holographic screen of the center console to provide detailed information to everyone present.

The holographic screen contains the Ark’s data, the flood-devil-infected areas on the Ark’s surface, and the safe areas that have not been infected by the flood-devil.

At this time, William opened his mouth and said: "Everyone, our current goals are mainly two.

(Raise your left hand to make a fist, extend your index finger first)

One is to unload the ground troops in the safe area selected by Serena, and the engineering team builds a surface base for the troops to go back and forth to the ground and the Star Destroyer after disinfection.

The ground forces need to protect the engineering team, and the flagship will not be attacked and disturbed by the floods while building the base.

(Stretching middle finger)

The second is to select the elite of the elite and follow me into the central control area of ​​the Ark, looking for the ‘guider’ on the Ark.

Through it voluntarily or voluntarily assisted us, let us completely control the Ark, and use the Ark's defense mechanism to eliminate the threat of floods.

Do you have any questions? "

"Um... Boss..." I saw Karl, who was not talking in a crowded situation, but suddenly raised his hand and asked, "What is a leader?"

William didn't explain, but looked at Serena, who was standing on his right hand.

Serena also understood William's meaning and waved her hand to display a 3D model on the holographic screen.

This model presents an imaginary picture of the leader, a one-eyed metal ball that is only slightly larger than a human head.

"Boss." Looking at the metal ball, Myron couldn't help but wonder: "This thing is the leader? Isn't it just a ball?"

"Ahem..." William made a fist again with his left hand, coughed slightly before his mouth, motioned for everyone to be quiet, and explained:

"Yes, the leader is a kind of artificial intelligence left behind by the Forerunner. As the name suggests, it is responsible for guiding us to open and control the various relics of the Forerunner."

"But the boss." Upon hearing this, John was the first to express his doubts:

"You used to say ‘voluntarily’ or ‘to be voluntarily voluntarily," then does it mean that the so-called leader is hostile to us?"

"Yes." William did not deny: "As an artificial intelligence, the leader is similar to the existence of Serena, Cortana and Megan.

They have their own personalities and characteristics, and after waiting for more than 100,000 years, they may become unstable due to loneliness, may be aggressive to everything, and even have the idea of ​​destroying the entire galaxy.

So don't be careless when you find a guide, let Serena, Cortana, and Megan communicate and persuade it.

When forced to do so, Serena and the others will attack and force the leader to assist us. "

"Yes..." At this moment, Ivan frowned, looking at Megan with a little caring air, and then questioned William:

"Father, Serena once said that the forerunner's artificial intelligence is extremely advanced. Let them attack the so-called guides, and the chances of winning should be small."

"Don't worry, although Serena and the others will struggle to deal with artificial intelligence like the leader, it does not mean that we can't threaten it."

After a pause, William swung his right hand lightly and continued to explain:

"When we land on the surface of the Ark, the first thing to do is to look for a terminal and let Serena and other artificial intelligences enter the Ark's system together.

One is to determine the location of the leader, and the other is to lock the control room of the Ark.

As long as we can reach the control room, as human beings are the ‘recyclers’, the Ark will be able to initiate the self-destruction procedure.

All the guides are unacceptable, and the creation under their jurisdiction is destroyed.

Then we threaten with self-destruction. I think the leader of the Ark should choose to cooperate. Moreover, this is the worst-case scenario. Maybe the leader will gladly accept our proposal. "

"In that case...then I have no problem, father." Ian said.

"Very good." William nodded lightly, then looked around at the officers and ordered:

"John, you will lead the Terminator of the Forbidden Army and Dark Crow to be the first to teleport to the safe area marked by Serena to ensure that the safe area is clean and safe."

"Yes."

John, who was ordered by William, nodded lightly, and led Carl, Myron, and Colacs to leave the bridge first.

At the same time, William looked at Ivan and ordered: "Ivan, you and Megan will drive my special mobile suit and lead the mobile suit formation to a safe area quickly.

(Looking at Shia and Nova next to Ivan again) So are you two. "

"Yes."

After Ivan led the girls to leave, the center console became more spacious. Only a few Marines and the commanders of the wild tooth sharks, Colonel Pruss, the ghost agent, and three in bright red armor remained. Elite commander.

William seemed to look at Pruss and said: "Colonel Pruss, please trouble you and your ghost agents, and cooperate with the wild tooth shark paratroopers to protect our engineering team.

After the Forbidden Army and the MS formation ensure the safety of the surface, you will lead the engineering team to take the transport aircraft and transport boats to the surface to build the surface base. "

"Yes."

Pruss and a group of mad tooth shark officers saluted William, and then left the bridge.

William looked at the three elite commanders again and said with a smile: "Thank you three people who also lead your tribe to protect the safety of our engineering team.

Remember, you must wear an airtight protective mask. "

"Oh~!" The leader of the elites habitually yelled to William: "You are now my clan's partner, no trouble or trouble."

"HahaThank you so much."

"Wow!"

The three elites screamed and left the bridge again.

Finally, William set his sights on the remaining Marine Corps officers, and said apologetically:

"Everyone, the task of defending the flagship is left to your Marines."

"..."

These Marine Corps officers included Hicks and Hudson, these veterans who had joined Umbrella more than ten years ago, but at this time they looked at each other and seemed a little unwilling.

After all, the other troops were given missions, but the Marines did not.

But then I thought about it.

Even the elite marines of the Zero Fleet were not big enough to have an AT shield, and they could only do nothing to deal with a Zerg like the Flood Demon.

In the end, Hicks, Hudson and others saluted William: "Yes, boss."
