Chapter 486: Controlling Qi with Sound, Physical Invasion, and Final Retreat (5k)
However, this short-lived joy did not last long. Just when everyone thought victory was in sight and the cheers had not completely dissipated, the scene on the screen made their faces freeze instantly. "Fire Phoenix" did not seem to have any trouble afterwards.
Change, as if what was hit was just a phantom.
Immediately afterwards, the radar image suddenly became blurry, and the light spots that originally heralded the precise hit of the "nuclear explosion pulse-driven projectile system" began to dissipate one by one, just like the brightest stars in the night sky being erased one by one by invisible hands.
Everyone in the Temple Society looked at each other with disbelief in their eyes. They could not imagine what kind of power it was that could turn hundreds of thousands of alchemical shrapnel that struck at 50km/s into dust in an instant without leaving any trace.
In the command room, the emotions of suspicion and fear intertwined into a tighter and tighter net, making people almost suffocated.
At the same time, about 150 kilometers away, Zhao Qing looked at the thousands of fiery red trails that were gradually dissipating in the distance. He took a deep breath and was quite surprised. He really didn't expect that.
The enemy actually has such a unique trick, and its power is beyond imagination.
If she hadn't always maintained attention and vigilance, and noticed the coming of this "meteor shower" more than a second in advance, she might not have had time to make a safe response, and the "Fire Phoenix" would have been severely damaged on the spot, and even collapsed.
.
To neutralize these high-speed attacks, which are equivalent to the concentrated output of more than half of the energy of multiple small nuclear bombs, a simple frontal confrontation is far from enough. Advanced martial arts skills must be used to avoid the real and the weak, and make dexterous maneuvers.
Therefore, Zhao Qing referred to the Broken Arrow style in Dugu Nine Swords and Xiaoyao Yufeng's "controlling the air of heaven and earth and turning all things into one's own use", coupled with the principles of acoustic lenses and clustered sound wave pulses, by controlling the airflow vortex, he could achieve the goal in advance.
Tiny "wind lenses" are formed.
The essence of these lenses is actually that the shock wave energy accumulated in the fire phoenix's body during the long-term subsonic flight is converted into dispersed sound waves, making the high-speed propelling fluid act like a shock wave and carry high-energy sound waves.
characteristic.
Not only can it automatically adjust its position and shape according to the speed, direction and intensity of incoming threats through phase arrays, but it can also instantly converge the surrounding airflow energy into a powerful sound pressure wave to accurately counter or deflect any attack.
To put it simply, it is like simulating an extremely large aura field using sound as the energy transmission medium, forming an adjustable protective cover.
Hundreds of thousands of shrapnel roared towards the target. Just before they were about to hit the target, they seemed to be pulled by an invisible force. They deviated from their original trajectories, drew strange arcs, and finally formed a line.
A straight line.
It seems that the power is more concentrated, but it only leaves an insignificant hole with a diameter of one or two meters in the huge body of the fire phoenix. It no longer has the effect of covering a wide range of damage, and the damage is reduced as much as possible. In the blink of an eye,
It has almost healed.
Facts have proven that although most of the time, the more concentrated the energy, the higher the damage, but if it penetrates the target all at once and fails to fully exert the power on the enemy, it will be completely in vain - hundreds of thousands of shrapnel are connected in a line, and the effect is
Not much stronger than a piece of shrapnel.
In an instant, a line of "streaming light" shot out from the fire phoenix's wing feathers continued to fly back for more than ten kilometers, gradually turning into a string of small dots that were difficult to track, heading towards the higher and higher altitudes.
away from the skyline.
Different from what Hermes had guessed not long ago, the reason why the N3P system has not been developed is actually not the lack of damage range, but the fact that the projectile speed is too fast and can easily exceed the speed of the second universe.
In this case, because of the curvature of the earth's surface, it is impossible to directly attack distant ground targets.
Even if it is launched horizontally, there is a high probability that it will eventually fly out of the atmosphere and fall into outer space, and will not be able to return to the earth like an intercontinental missile - of course, this is only if the warhead is not burned by friction and heat.
Down.
If you want to make its effective range normal, you must build "forts" at extremely high places, such as satellites flying in low-Earth orbit. However, this kind of vehicle cannot withstand the reaction of a nuclear bomb explosion.
force.
After thinking about it, I am afraid that only the legendary special Nibelungs that float high in the sky and circle the earth are the suitable platforms to carry this weapon system.
Therefore, when Zhao Qing looked back and glanced at the trajectory of the shrapnel, she immediately responded keenly, greatly reducing the flying height of the "Fire Phoenix", and paying attention to the fact that there must be mountains or hills as bunkers in the path to avoid being caught.
Lock again.
And after suffering this sudden attack, she didn't have any countermeasures.
In fact, although "Fire Phoenix" can increase Zhao Qing's combat power by nearly ten times against large opponents, it has never been an important means for her to conquer the headquarters of the Temple Society. In fact, there are other people who really want to play a role.
Law.
"The wind and clouds are rising, and the sound is gathering at the front."
The next moment, Zhao Qing's thoughts moved slightly, the fire phoenix flapped its wings, countless tiny airflows began to adjust their directions, and all made a deafening sound. These sound waves were focused together at her cuffs, and then released at a high altitude.
Compression shock wave.
I saw a splendid colorful light shooting out from Zhao Qing's sleeves. It was immediately accelerated to a speed close to the speed of the alchemy shrapnel just now. It suddenly cut through the night sky, crossed the mountains and ridges, and headed straight for the headquarters of the Temple Society.
By changing the internal structure of the fire phoenix into a mental focusing array antenna similar to a "wind lens", she successfully projected her mental power to great distances like radar waves, significantly amplifying her control over the flying sword.
distance.
When the Qibao Glazed Sword arrived more than 100 kilometers away, it used the initial kinetic energy of long-distance acceleration to easily drill through the granite and concrete layers hundreds of meters thick, and quietly entered the interior of the base.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! The extremely sharp sword tip carved out a long, narrow and straight channel in the rock, as smooth as a hot knife cutting through butter.
This underground fortification, which could have been used as a nuclear war bunker to prevent ground-penetrating nuclear bomb attacks, and which the Temple was proud of, was considered impregnable. However, they had no way of realizing that such a special and concealed infiltration method seemed so powerless at this moment.
In the intricate pipelines, Feijian moved forward silently like a ghost. It used the weak light and electromagnetic signals in the base to randomly find a computer that was connected to the comprehensive defense system.
This computer was located in an inconspicuous corner, mixed in with many similar devices, so no one noticed it. The flying sword flexibly turned among the pipes, and finally stopped next to the computer.
The sword approached slowly, retreated with incredible precision, and cleverly inserted the USB flash drive fixed behind the hilt into the computer interface - the data on this USB flash drive was first transmitted from a network thousands of miles away.
, and then was sent out of the Gulfstream cabin by Shi Yiguang.
Next, Zhao Qing demonstrated her hacking skills. She used the USB flash drive behind the hilt of the flying sword to inject a carefully written hacker program into the server through physical connection.
At first, it was not eager to show its destructive power. Instead, it first performed a series of complex self-hiding and encryption verifications, disguised as a legitimate system update package, deceived the computer's basic security defenses, and quietly sneaked into the system.
at.
This program has an advanced anti-detection mechanism that can evade most monitoring software in the Templar Society's network security system, just like a drop of ink blending into the sea, silently.
Soon, the virus program analyzed the topology, firewall configuration and security policy of the target network to find the weakest link. At the same time, it used the USB flash drive as a springboard to establish a secret data channel to ensure the concealment and security of subsequent operations.
stability.
Once a breakthrough is found, it becomes unstoppable like a wild horse, gradually penetrating into deeper systems through legal identity authentication mechanisms.
During this process, the virus continues to replicate itself, extending its infection tentacles to every corner, while modifying system logs and monitoring records to cover up its whereabouts.
It can not only identify the key nodes and vulnerable links of the system, but also dynamically adjust the attack strategy based on the real-time status of the system. Under Zhao Qing's remote control, it can accurately lock the core database and command center of the comprehensive defense system.
Next, the virus program begins to perform its real task - deep penetration and comprehensive control. It uses a series of advanced vulnerability exploitation techniques and privilege escalation methods to gradually obtain advanced privileges of the system.
In the process, the virus program also skillfully evaded various security monitoring and defense mechanisms deployed by the Temple, making the entire intrusion process almost undetectable by the network security team, who seemed to be facing a ghostly opponent.
As the virus spread further in the network, Zhao Qing began to implement her next plan.
Through remote control, she directed the virus program to carry out precise attacks on the key systems of the Temple, including but not limited to weapon control systems, communication networks and data centers.
The virus program first tampered with and destroyed the core files of these systems and released multiple malicious payloads, causing the systems to fail to operate normally. Weapon systems such as missile silos, anti-aircraft turrets, and experimental laser pulses were unable to respond to normal combat instructions.
Then, it gradually shut down the power supply system and security access control system in the base by forging system commands, aiming to cut up the troops stationed by the Temple Society and trap them in small spaces.
…
Almost at the same time, Hermes stood in the command room, frowning, eyes fixed on the suddenly black monitor screen. An ominous premonition spread in his heart, and he knew that this was no accidental technical failure.
.
"Strengthen the alert and activate all backup systems!" He ordered loudly, with an imperceptible tremor in his voice. Countless possible threats flashed through Hermes' mind, but he never thought that there would be such a brilliant one.
Hackers are able to breach their physical isolation defenses.
Beside him, the messenger's gaze also fell solemnly on the flickering and eventually silent screens, thinking to himself:
Even if the long-range strike method didn't work, we still encountered such a crisis. So, is it really necessary to use the "final retreat"?
A simple sarcophagus and a half-human-high dragon egg were placed next to the envoy. This was the reward he had received for providing guidance before, but if there was no accident, he might not be able to bring it out.
No matter how unbelievable it was, when Zhao Qing's hacker program began to penetrate deeply into the system and the impact could no longer be concealed, the relevant technical team finally confirmed the disheartening news, and alarms sounded throughout the base.
"Alert! There is an unknown intruder!" A cold electronic sound echoed in the base, and many senior officials responded quickly and activated the emergency plan. The backup power supply was activated instantly, ensuring that the basic operations of the base were not affected.
At the same time, the network security team quickly gathered and began to fight against the virus attack from unknown areas.
They know that this is a tough battle, and the opponent's methods are both cunning and clever. But the members of the Temple Society are not just ordinary people. They have rich experience and strong technical support.
For a time, the screens in the base were filled with dense codes and data flows. The network security team had a fierce battle with Zhao Qing's hacker program. They tried their best to write defense codes and track the source of the virus, but they were still unable to stop it.
The spread of the virus.
The reason why Zhao Qing's side has the absolute upper hand is because she has already conducted detailed research on various exposed web pages of the Solomon Temple, established an infection model specifically targeting its leaks, and incorporated Fingel's friendship
Provides mechanisms for evolutionary variation.
"Everyone, the situation is urgent. I think everyone has seen the surveillance footage just now."
In the command room, Hermes spoke first, with a solemn tone: "We have been attacked by unprecedented hackers, and the system is almost completely paralyzed. But don't lose hope just yet. Please remember that there is no shortage of stories of survival against adversity in the history of the Templar Society.
.”
Having said this, he took a deep breath, turned around again, and scanned everyone present with a burning gaze: "Now is not the time for doubts and panic. We must unite and fight this sudden crisis together."
Hermes quickly issued a series of instructions, each sentence revealing unquestionable determination: "Immediately activate the highest level security protocol, and all non-essential systems will be completely disconnected and isolated to ensure the security of the core database."
"Cybersecurity team, I want you to track down the hacker at all costs! At the same time, notify all members to enter a state of emergency and prepare for any situation that may occur. You must be prepared for the worst."
Hermes added: "So far, the shelter deep underground has sufficient food, water and medical supplies, which can support all members here to survive in a closed environment for several years, which is enough for us to hold on.
Waiting for support."
"However, the real test lies in our determination and will."
…
But what is unexpected is that throughout the entire invasion process, Zhao Qing also carefully planned a psychological war and intelligence war, which precisely targeted the "will" aspect that the Temple Society had specially strengthened.
She created a series of false alarms and emergency notices by modifying the internal monitoring system images and broadcast system information of the Temple Society, including accusations of internal traitors, exaggerated external threats, etc., further exacerbating the psychological panic and panic among the Temple members.
confusion.
Even with the "loyalty of all employees" achieved through brain surgery, there is no way to maintain stability under the interference of countless amounts of fraudulent information. After all, there is no way to tell which is the real order from the superior.
At the same time, she also used virus programs to collect a large amount of sensitive information and confidential data of the Temple Society.
This information includes but is not limited to strategic plans, personnel lists, weapons configurations and communication network layouts, as well as various political scandals about certain countries, and, which is particularly critical at this moment, the location of the enemy's cybersecurity team.
While those network security experts were still typing nervously on the keyboard, watching the errors that kept popping up on the screen, trying to prevent the further spread of the virus, after confirming the location through the monitoring system, Feijian had quietly appeared in front of them.
beside.
I saw a flash of sword light, and the sharp sword tip instantly penetrated the chests of several members. Then it circled and wiped the necks of several people. The blood spewed out stained the floor red, causing the computer in front of them to instantly
The short circuit also shocked everyone present.
In the blink of an eye, the entire base's remaining resistance was lost. The virus program that had evolved many times became the "master" of the Temple headquarters, quickly pushing the process of conquering major systems to the end.
The most deadly thing is that Zhao Qing also used a virus program to activate the self-destruction mechanism of the Temple Society ammunition depot. This was not achieved by directly controlling the ammunition depot system, but by exploiting a security vulnerability in the ammunition depot management system.
The virus program cleverly forged an emergency instruction from a high-level official, causing the ammunition depot to initiate a self-destruction program without any human intervention. The password locks on dozens of nuclear warheads were released and the countdown to detonation began.
Under Zhao Qing's careful design, there was no need for a frontal attack. Just relying on the infiltration of a flying sword and the blessing of information technology, it took less than ten minutes to force such a top large organization into a desperate situation.
As for the "Fire Phoenix" walking slowly behind, it is to clean up the mess, suppress the many dragon knights that are likely to remain, and completely complete this annihilation operation.
"No! This is impossible!" After learning a series of bad news, a senior knight attendant who had just been awakened exclaimed, and his body trembled involuntarily. He knew that once the ammunition depot exploded, everyone would die.
.
Members of other classes also screamed and cried in terror. When the trust of the team was on the verge of collapse, the fear between life and death overwhelmed everything. They either fled in all directions, or searched for suitable bunkers, trying to find a chance of survival.
But in this base where all key arteries have been closed, where can they escape?
No matter how hard they try, they can't escape the feeling of despair welling up from the bottom of their hearts.
These people once thought that they were powerful warriors who could resist the invasion of all foreign enemies under the wise leadership of the head of the Knights Templar. But now, they find that they are like lambs to be slaughtered, and can only wait helplessly for their fate.
of trial.
…
There is no doubt that in the face of such a desperate situation, conventional resistance is meaningless. Even if dragon knights can be sent to forcibly destroy the nuclear warheads that are about to detonate and turn them into dirty bombs, this will also pollute all aspects of the Templar Society.
A lot of key supplies were also lost, and a lot of high-end combat power was lost.
"Everyone, calm down!" In the increasingly panicked command room, Hermes's voice penetrated the noise, like a warm current blowing across the ice in the cold winter: "We still have a way out, one that even the enemy has not tried
The known 'final retreat' - the Abyss of Khaos."
Having said this, Hermes paused for a moment, glanced past the envoy who seemed to have expected it, leaned down, and used his silver-scaled fist to blast out a shallow hole of more than one meter on the ground.
pit, then reached out and grabbed the dragon-patterned copper ring buried in the pit, and slowly pulled it up.
"The Abyss of Khaos is a miraculous place left by the dragon clan in ancient times. It is a Nibelung community that stretches for thousands of miles. They are not simple shelters, but portals connecting different time, space and dimensions. Only those who have
Only those with a special brand can unlock its seal."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! While adding explanation, he opened the secret tunnel of the underground mechanism, revealing an extremely deep vertical hole, because inside it is a purely mechanical structure that has been preserved from ancient times to the present day.
, has not been affected by network system intrusion.
Probably because he was worried that the command room had been monitored by the enemy, Hermes did not say much. He just reported a series of numbers in a deep voice, allowing the high-level officials with the brand to enter one after another. For some reason, he even brought the
The messenger from the Medical Association.
When everyone climbed down the shaft and finally passed through a cloud of gray mist, they turned back up and soon saw a temple headquarters in the late 19th century, but everything was covered with paint.
The layers of ice appear ancient and mysterious.
Time seems to have stopped here. The masonry secret passages are winding. Although the steam facilities are abandoned, the gold and silver badges everywhere still reveal traces of the past glory. The hands of the wall clock stay at a certain moment, as if they will never
Turn again.
"Sing praise to God, praise Taiyi! With the blessing of the gods, we successfully completed the retreat."
There was no time to stay and explore in this place, which was much smaller than the current headquarters of the Temple Society, so he came out directly from the underground fortifications that were also located deep in the mountain and led to the outside world. Hermes led everyone,
Walking on the gentle slopes of Ben Nevis.
He left a series of footprints in the ice and snow, looking up at the huge inverted mountain peak in the sky like a mirror image, his eyes full of emotion and determination:
"Here, we will regroup and wait for the opportunity. One day, we will return stronger and return to the outside world to make those who once threatened us pay the price."
"What's the 'Abyss of Khaos'? It can't be the 'Abyss of Odin', right?" And across a layer of void, Zhao Qing's mind attached to the Seven Treasure Glazed Sword also rushed to the edge of the gray mist, surrounding it.
Hovering around this entrance to the Nibelung.
As the core database was finally breached and the network became open, directly connected to the Gulf Stream a hundred kilometers away, she retrieved a large amount of relevant information with just a thought.
