Chapter 3598 Edge of Tomorrow (Forty-four)
No one expected to see a scene like an artificial intelligence crisis - at this time, the perimeter of the construction site of the Brainiac Center was full of security robots patrolling with guns.
These robots were obviously not products of this era, and they looked exactly like the villains in science fiction movies. Their metal shells shone with dim light, and their movements were very smooth. From a distance, they looked no different from humans, without any mechanical stiffness.
Moreover, they are divided into different models: some are strong giants more than two meters tall, whose footsteps land heavily on the ground, and the vibration can be felt dozens of meters away; some are smaller in size but faster, running around the entire construction site, and only their afterimages can be seen in the dark night.
Not to mention the layers of gun emplacements inside. Some were placed above the gate, and some were arranged in the windows, almost 360 degrees without blind spots. The dark muzzles appeared a deeper black in the night, and just looking at them made people's scalps numb.
The rat girl in the team controlled a rat to slip over, but before it could even get to the side, it was turned into ashes by a laser, which scared her so much that she almost screamed.
Pamela quickly covered her mouth. Victor said from the side: "They should have night vision goggles and thermal imaging. We have no way to rush in."
"If it's just thermal imaging, it's easy to deal with." Pamela stretched out her hand, and a vine spread sparsely along the edge of the sidewalk. As soon as it entered the construction site, it was immediately hit.
"They may have some kind of motion sensing and recognition device, and any abnormal movement will be captured."
"This is troublesome." Deathstroke clicked his tongue.
Their actions were all seen by Schiller, who was standing in front of the French window on the top floor of a nearby building. He had asked Brainiac to build these robots and security facilities.
"It's not difficult to predict Amanda's actions. This stupid girl will only rush around. She will not choose to find someone to mediate the conflict between herself and Congress. She will only want to show her fists so that Congress will bow to her."
"If she wants to make Congress bow down, she'll have to make a big noise. The Brainiac Center, which is watched by the whole world, is a good place to go. She will definitely send Task Force X."
These robots were produced by Brainiac when Schiller decided to take action. This was not difficult for Brainiac, as the factory in Gotham was enough.
"It's just that I don't understand." Brainiac's voice came from the computer behind him, "Humanoid robots don't actually have any combat advantages. Apart from looking very similar to you, their center of gravity is not stable enough, their strength is not strong enough, and their force generation structure is not that scientific at all..."
"If we use machines to construct weapons, then what we should do is to eliminate the unscientific parts of the human body structure that are caused by natural evolution, rather than completely imitating it."
Schiller shook his head and said, "No, what kind of robot you want to produce does not depend on what kind of robot is more scientific, but on what kind of robot is easier to understand."
“Easier to understand?”
"To be precise, it's about what kind of robots the public thinks they should have," Schiller explained. "Unfortunately, their impression of robots is humanoid robots. They don't understand the scientific machines you make."
"In this day and age, most people's impression of robots is not even the robots in Omnic Crisis, but the Tin Man in The Wizard of Oz - basically a tin can."
"Except for Batman, everyone else in this team only knows robots as 'humans made of metal'."
"This is what they call experts looking at the details, while laymen looking at the excitement. Except for Batman, the people in Task Force X are all complete laymen in mechanical engineering. Even most humans are laymen. They are just looking at the excitement."
"If we give them a very complex and professional mechanical fortress to fight, neither they nor ordinary people can figure out what's going on. But it's different when humans fight metal men. Everyone can understand what's going on."
"Why should they understand?" Brainiac asked again.
"Because we are not going to kill them, we just want to fight them, winning or losing is not important."
Brainiac seemed to understand a little bit. He said, "You want to start a propaganda war? Make people think that the robots I made are scary?"
"It's the opposite," Schiller said. "I want to make ordinary people and politicians realize that there are many things in the world that are much scarier than you and your robots. Only in this way can we take the initiative."
Pamela, squatting outside the fence, looked up at the sky and saw many drones flying around the construction site. If nothing unexpected happened, there should be cameras filming.
It's good to have cameras, so that every bit of their work will not be wasted. Amanda can also see it, so won't the salary be guaranteed?
For the sake of congressional funding, Pamela no longer hesitated. She waved at the factory gate, and two vines pierced into the chests of the two robots at the gate at an extremely terrifying speed, then instantly pulled them to the other side and disappeared silently into the soil.
This made the Death Shooter, who was aiming through the scope, put away his gun. Pamela said to the people next to her, "I will use my ultimate move later, and you can just rush in during the chaos. We will meet in the inner courtyard!"
When Batman heard this, he hadn't reacted to what she was going to do. But a second after the words fell, Pamela flew straight into the sky - she flew straight up!
Then, a green sun seemed to appear above the construction site, covering all the nearby streets with a dazzling green light. Then, countless vines and trees sprouted from the ground.
Inside the construction site, there are even more vines growing out of the soil, basically one every two or three meters.
Although the firepower deployed in the yard was dense, it was unable to achieve effective fire suppression in the face of so many vines. Lasers and bullets kept firing, but after cutting off one vine, another grew back, and even the ones destroyed did not grow faster than they did.
Especially since most of the vines were two or three meters thick, even lasers and bullets would take a while to destroy them. If the main trunk was not destroyed immediately, the branches would spread infinitely, almost forming a large net.
"Follow me!" Batman shouted, although he was shocked.
A group of people rushed in with weapons in hand. When they rushed into the yard, it had been turned into a plant maze. Everyone, including the robots, was trapped inside.
But Pamela seemed to have some kind of plant vision, and once she saw them, all the plants would make way for them. So they could go straight into the gate without any obstacles.
"Don't go in!" Batman quickly shouted to stop because he saw the flashing red light of a turret inside.
Just as he was about to arrange the combat mission, Victor, Death Shooter and Deathstroke raised their guns together. Three people fired three different bullets, but they hit the turret in the hallway at the same time.
boom! boom! boom!
The three turrets were silenced instantly. Fearing that there might be an ambush in the reception room behind the corridor, Victor threw an ice grenade over. There was a loud bang, followed by the crackling sound of ice. The world was quiet.
This building is not the Brainiac Center, but an old building that has not yet been demolished. Behind the lobby is a reception room, and on both sides of the reception room are reception rooms.
Through the window of the reception room at the back, one can see another building that has been demolished. There are equipment and materials for the construction of Brainiac Center.
Deathstroke smashed the window with the butt of his gun and flipped over from outside. He saw the drone flying over his head again. Although he was a little annoyed by the noise, he still endured it for the sake of money.
Deadshot and several others followed closely behind, and finally Batman. Before he could make a move, the Polka Dot Man shouted, and countless colorful dots flew towards the robot in the yard.
The robot hit by the colorful dots disappeared instantly. The dot man took a few breaths and said, "I need to rest for a while, you guys come on."
He successfully destroyed more than 60% of the robots in the inner courtyard, but there were still some big guys left, such as the heavy robot with thunderous footsteps. After discovering the intruder, it rushed over here.
The shark king roared and charged forward, colliding with a robot weighing several tons, but he was not at all at a disadvantage. He even opened his mouth wide and bit off half of his arm, chewing it in his mouth.
Crunch... "Pooh! It tastes terrible!"
After spitting it out, he bumped into the heavy robot's head again, knocking it off balance. Death Shooter took this opportunity to take aim and fired a sniper bullet through the heavy robot's head.
"Don't hit the head, hit the chest!" said Charles, who played the wise man. "Their core is in the chest cavity!"
The Death Shooter nodded, aimed again, and fired another shot. This time it went straight through the center of the chest. A series of sparks flew from the chest of the heavy robot, and then it exploded with a bang and fell to the ground motionless.
"Great." Death Shooter praised.
Charles showed a mysterious smile, playing the role of a powerful hacker to the end. But in fact, he did not find the weakness through hacking technology at all, he directly read Schiller's brain waves in the building not far away.
Batman also narrowed his eyes and looked at the wise man.
Batman is well aware of the robot's weakness, which is the software control system. If he can hack into the opponent's control system, then no matter how many robots there are, he will not be afraid.
The reason he didn't try this was that Brainiac was a super artificial intelligence, the ancestor of hackers. If you invaded him, you would definitely be counter-invaded. Although they didn't have any electronic components worth controlling, even if their communications were interfered with, it would be fatal.
This guy named Wise Man can actually see the internal structure of the robot directly. This hacking technology is really beyond Batman's imagination.
Destroying the heavy robots was only the first step, because more and more robots were coming towards them, not only those in the inner courtyard, but also those guarding the raw materials and equipment. They were about to be surrounded and attacked.
"Stand back, I won't hurt you!" said the vengeful demon to the people next to him.
They retreated to the front of the reception room. The vengeful demon turned to them and said, "No, you go back to that building, otherwise you will definitely get burned."
So they went back the same way and returned to the previous building. Batman thought he was going to stretch out his hands and spit fire, but the vengeful demon roared and a huge black shadow stood up in the flames.
It was a skeleton with flames all over its body and gorgeous feathers on its head. It was extremely tall. When he stood up, the whole inner courtyard was ablaze with flames.
And unlike normal flames, this flame was pure red, and the temperature was unimaginably high. Even if you were standing in the building, you would be roasted by the heat wave in an instant.
When Batman looked directly into the flames, he could hear a desolate echo in his ears, as if he was instantly pulled into the sacrificial scene of ancient Indian civilization, with his soul swaying in the flying sand and rocks.
