Chapter 1639

South Gate II Colonial Exploration Foundation Headquarters Building.

On normal times, there are usually many people gathered downstairs in the building. However, not to mention the outside of the building, even inside the building, there are not many people still staying.

Walking into the office quickly, Gladstone hastily opened the holographic operating system on the desk, entered the background through the double authentication procedure of iris and fingerprint, and quickly pressed a few buttons.

Soon, a holographic beam was projected in the center of the office, and an old man with an aging appearance but a hint of sharpness in his pupils appeared from the holographic beam.

Before the old man could speak, Gladstone spoke in a panic.

"It's the third orbital airborne brigade! It's a mess outside now, the militia organization in Tiangong City has been beaten and retreated steadily, and now more than 50% of the residential areas are under their control... Hurry up and think of a way!"

Waiting quietly for the man in front of him to finish speaking, Lawrence smiled faintly and said softly.

"What are you in a hurry for? They're not here for you."

"Yes, they didn't come after us, but what's the difference? If the city hall falls and the high-level officials of Tiangong City are captured, the affairs of the alliance army will definitely be exposed, and they will suspect us sooner or later!"

Looking at Gladstone who was out of breath, Lawrence pondered for a while and said meaningfully.

"It seems that the relationship between you and the Alliance Army is closer than I imagined. Is it a financial exchange? Or is it that you are also involved."

"It's just an investment. Otherwise, why do you think our plan can go through so smoothly!" Gladstone's forehead was covered with cold sweat, and he explained nervously, "What's more, If they succeed independently, we shall have a rightful place on Mars and the powers to match—”

"Okay, I don't care about these things," interrupted Gladstone's explanation, and Lawrence cast his gaze out of the window, quietly watching the flickering fire in the distance, "It seems that if I don't take action again, Tiangong The city’s militia probably won’t be able to support the arrival of reinforcements.”

Gladstone said cursingly: "Those idiots...have the most advanced equipment, but it's useless at critical times! It's all over now, everything is over!"

"Don't be so pessimistic. Don't say they are still some distance away from the city hall. Even if they hit the gate, they are far from hopeless." After glancing at Gladstone, Lawrence said with a faint smile, "After all, my hands There is still a hole card that is useless."

The moment Gladstone heard these words, hope was rekindled in Gladstone's eyes, and he hurriedly asked.

"What cards?"

"Alpha virus," Lawrence said softly, looking at the thick gunpowder smoke outside the window, "Although the infected devices on Earth have basically been cleared, I haven't pressed the button on Mars yet."

Around this time last year, the Alpha virus swept almost the entire Earth-Moon system, so that the order on Earth fell to the brink of collapse.

If Lu Zhou hadn't hijacked the starship carrying the "evolution code" and implanted a deadly virus in his "oracle", he would have almost succeeded.

Fortunately, however, he still has a back hand.

That is the distant Mars!

When the Alpha virus spreads on the earth, the spread on Mars is also going on simultaneously. When the agents of the Security Bureau focused almost all their energy on hunting down the awakened ones on Earth, his faithful "believers" had already been lurking in every corner of Tiangong City, New Virginia and other major colonial cities.

They usually play roles that are almost the same as normal people, and only when he needs them will they show their true side.

Originally, Lawrence didn't plan to use this hole card. After all, the new world needed labor to build, and he planned to take the awakened ones who were loyal to him with him.

But now, the situation has obviously reached the time when he has to make a choice.

At least……

Before "Noah's Ark" is completed, the city hall of Tiangong City cannot be overthrown!

"Just let me help you."

Speaking softly, Lawrence, who was standing in the light and shadow, had a series of dark green data streams flashing in his pupils. However, at this moment, his pupils suddenly shrank a little, and a look of disbelief appeared on his face.

"……impossible!"

Seeing that there was something wrong with the reaction on Lawrence's face, Gladstone instantly became nervous.

"……what happened?"

"Someone tampered with the program I set up."

"Moved hands and feet? What do you mean..."

Lawrence glanced at him expressionlessly, without saying a word, the figure, together with the holographic beam, gradually disappeared into the office without a sound.

Seeing the old man disappearing in front of his eyes, Gladstone was instantly dumbfounded. He rushed to his desk and yelled loudly at the communication channel that was still connected.

"Wait a minute, hey! What the hell do you mean! Just leave us alone?"

The green light on the comm channel was still blinking, but there was no response.

Sitting back on the office chair, cold sweat continued to slide down Gladstone's forehead.

This guy……

Seeing that the situation was wrong, he actually slipped away by himself!

"asshole!"

The fists resting on the desk were tightly clenched, and a sternness flashed in Gladstone's eyes.

You can't just sit around like this...

Thinking of this, he took a deep breath, sat back on the office chair, swiped his index finger across the holographic screen, selected a special number and dialed it.

Soon, the call was connected.

A hoarse voice came from the snow-white holographic screen.

"What do you need me to do?"

"Keep an eye on the front line." Leaning back on the cushion of the office chair, Gladstone continued in a cold tone, "If the 3rd Orbital Airborne Brigade crosses the last line of defense, you will do it here."

There was silence on the other end of the phone for a while, then continued.

"I'm afraid we are no match for those people."

"You were not allowed to fight against the Third Orbital Airborne Brigade. Your target is Mayor Xiao and his staff." Gladstone's eyes flashed a faint killing intent, and he continued word by word, "kill killed them."

"We must not let them fall into the hands of Pan-Asia Cooperation!"

...

At the same time, in a corner of Tiangong City, the young woman sitting in the hotel slowly breathed a sigh of relief, unplugged the data cable connected to her brain, and threw it into the suitcase.

"...That should be fine."

If Lu Zhou were here, he would be surprised to see this face.

Because this is none other than the "tail" he once helped.

After that disaster, the Pan-Asian Cooperation issued a new law on the application of artificial intelligence and bionics, making a legal distinction between bionics with autonomous consciousness and non-autonomous bionics, and since then Tail and Li Li lived a life of incognito.

The reason why it will appear on Mars this time...

The main reason was that Xiao Ai was worried about Lu Zhou, so she was entrusted to follow him.

Fortunately, she followed along.

The first time she arrived in this city, she noticed the abnormality here. Many awakened people who have been implanted with dangerous codes just hide in the crowd.

She could feel from their electromagnetic waves that the feelings lodged in them were intentionally distorted and amplified killings.

Thinking of the tragedies that had happened on Earth, she immediately reported the situation to Xiao Ai, and with Xiao Ai's assistance, she copied her emotional code and implanted it into these "pathological" bionics as a patch. inside the human body.

And just now, she finally completed this time-consuming and huge project.

"There seems to be a fight outside..." Standing up and walking to the edge of the balcony, looking at the thick smoke rising from the street in the distance, a trace of worry could not help but be written on Tail's face.

Lu Zhou doesn't seem to be here these days.

She could hardly feel the electromagnetic ripples belonging to Ling.

However, that bionic person is very strong, if she follows Lu Zhou, nothing will happen.

In contrast, she was more worried about her Lili.

I haven't seen myself for several days, and I don't know if she has eaten well and slept on time...
