Chapter 355: When the enemy comes, the general will stop him; when the water comes, the earth will build a wall!
Lighting equipment powered by the Ark reactor was installed between the uneven rock walls.
But maybe it's for the atmosphere and warmth.
The huge fire pit in the middle of the cave is still completely preserved.
As the fire flickered, wisps of strong flames licked the sizzling Grox steaks through the metal grill pan.
The extremely tempting aroma of oil is slowly emitted.
Next to the fire pit, Rorschach, wearing power armor, sat cross-legged.
He moved with great vigor, devouring the meat roasted by Iron Man David like a hungry wolf.
"My Lord, the operation system of the Twin Island Base is gradually getting on track. The presence of the carrier-based aircraft soul Cortana has greatly reduced the processing speed of many miscellaneous tasks. If no unexpected situations occur in the short term, we can consider building a central control core system for the entire base with Cortana as the center and countless automatic servo robots. In this way, the efficiency of both production tasks and execution of actions will be greatly improved."
With blue light flashing in his eyes, Iron Man David handed Rorschach another plate of steaming steaks.
Rorschach, with his mouth full of oil, took it casually and said without even looking up:
"If the base can build various defense systems, I have no objection. By the way, in order to prevent possible unexpected situations, David, you should personally cast a metal statue of the Emperor and place it in the core of the base where Cortana is housed. Also, select some useful prayer scriptures about Om Messiah that you remember and engrave them at some key locations."
"Uh... My Lord, why do you choose such a complicated method? Perhaps the Emperor is always watching you."
At this moment, Iron Man David, who was grilling meat, seemed to recall some unpleasant experience.
It quickly shook its metal head vigorously, stared at Rorschach and said.
"Although our current approach is to adapt to local conditions, I remember that the Emperor doesn't like artificial intelligence very much. It's still unclear whether it can help us in a real situation. I'm just seeking psychological comfort. In addition, there may not be electronic demons from Chaos on the mainland, but there may be nanoviruses or other weird things that can produce similar effects. This is also something we need to consider in advance."
"I don't want to face an Omnic Crisis or an Iron Man Rebellion one day... Sorry, David, this is not directed at you personally, but a necessary concern."
Before he finished speaking, Rorschach suddenly stopped eating.
He frowned slightly, staring at the flickering flames in front of him, and murmured with a blank look in his eyes:
"Moreover, just when I performed the 'miracle' last time, the Emperor also gave me a psychic prophecy of an impending disaster... I have been thinking about this matter subconsciously during this period. Maybe, I mean maybe... if the prophecy has nothing to do with the local area, then the Chaos forces may not be as far away from this universe as I thought."
"A Chaos Demon from the Warp..."
The speed at which the blue light flashed in Iron Man David's eyes seemed to have increased a bit.
It casually moved the sizzling barbecue on the fire to the side to cool down.
The mechanical voice seemed to carry a hint of relief:
"My Lord, if your concerns are correct, the worst that can happen to us is that we will have to face the normal wars that the human empire encounters every day. At that time, those local humans who have never faced the terrifying demons will still need you to lead them to continue fighting. There will definitely be unbearable casualties, but the local humans who have been tempered by a lot of wars are no longer infants."
"Sacrifice. The foundation of the human empire has always been built on sacrifice. This is a perfect motto that has been proven by countless lives. As a loyal iron man, I can tell you with certainty that, in fact, even though the most glorious golden age of mankind is fleeting, some things in the bones of mankind have never changed. This is the fundamental reason why the human empire can continue to fight against countless aliens, heretics and even chaos demons."
"It doesn't even matter which universe or world... It's the important factor that allows the human species to stand out from countless competitors. Most humans may be ignorant, reckless and aggressive, but at the same time they also have a strong spirit of bravery and fearlessness of sacrifice."
"I personally believe that even local humans, if given the right amount of time and experience, will shine with the same brilliance..."
At this moment, Iron Man David's words made Rorschach gradually fall into deep thought.
Then he suddenly shook his head.
A faint smile appeared at the corners of his grease-stained mouth.
"David, you are right. Perhaps I am too worried about some issues."
"No matter what, we must make the necessary preparations. If the development of everything gradually exceeds the original expectations, then it is nothing more than one sentence... If the enemy comes, we will fight him with our troops, and if the water comes, we will build a defense with earth!"
"Besides, I am not fighting alone, I have you in the team to help me!"
"Come on, David, keep on serving the meat!"
At this moment, Rorschach's appetite, which had just subsided, returned to his body.
Excited, he continued to wolf down the food in front of him.
Iron Man David shook his metal head slightly.
It grilled more steaks again, like a wise man who had retired from the stage of success.
——Early
the next morning.
The energetic Dum arrived outside the private cave more than ten hours earlier than expected.
He found Rorschach, who was still awake, carrying a large bucket of sweet soup made from the roots and rhizomes of various plants mixed with starch.
While sharing a simple breakfast that tasted neither good nor bad, the two discussed the next plan of action.
Doom first expressed his difficulties to Rorschach.
The number of rebels today is far inferior to that of the past in terms of both combat effectiveness and personnel quality.
Even equipped with more advanced weapons and equipment.
Nor is it likely to recapture the glory of the previous revolution.
Moreover, it is difficult to gain the support of local people again.
Doom, who is proficient in witchcraft, is indeed a strong individual.
However, facing the shielding technology controlled by Leviathan, it is often difficult to play a big role.
However, Rorschach already had some ideas about the situation.
He asked Doom.
If one wants to re-mobilize the Latvian people, what are the chances of success?
Doom frowned and lowered his head in thought.
He said to Rorschach very cautiously:
"Based on my past understanding, the people here simply want to eat the flesh and bones of every member of the Harlem family alive! Almost every Latverian has a blood feud with the ruling class! I can't guarantee 100% success, but the chance is not low, it's worth a try."
Rorschach narrowed his eyes and nodded slightly.
He took a deep breath and said calmly:
"In that case, let's test the waters with some public opinion campaigns first, and then react accordingly based on subsequent developments..."
"David, come in!"
Thank you for your support!
