"Opportunity? Ha!"

"It's useless. Now that the invisibility cloak technology and active protein nanorobot technology are in the hands of the PDC, the technicians and factories responsible for production have been taken over. We don't have raw materials and scientific researchers for the time being. How are we going to poison them?"

?”

"Then use other poison!"

"No, ordinary cyanide is definitely useless and will be detected!"

"Everyone, the key point now is that the 'lord' has become more and more dissatisfied with us, and some of the technologies that were originally planned to be given have now become hesitant."

"If we continue to fail, our behavior of capitalizing on the enemy will probably prevent us from obtaining any more technology."

"What can we do?"

"Just watch her mocking and scolding us?"

"Anyway!"

"We can't be led by her. We must formulate a more thorough plan. Next time, we must be absolutely sure before we take action. We must hit it with one strike?"

"That's right!"

"Although she seems to enjoy this kind of game, we can't keep playing with her like this. It's too passive."

"really!"

"Sometimes, not responding is the biggest counterattack. Just let her go for a while."

"However, we should remember her provocation!"

"Ugh!"

"She is very cunning. Should I be like a lion on the African savannah, quietly observing the prey and waiting for the best moment to arrive?"

"Perhaps we can use her arrogance to set up a trap?"

"Then how do you set it up?"

"Well..."

"Stop doing this and that, stay put for the time being and strengthen intelligence collection and analysis. At the same time, we must also be alert to the movements of the PDC and don't fall into the traps they have laid."

"That's right!"

"What we are pursuing is the victory of the Three-Body Problem, not personal glory! Our forbearance today is for the glory of tomorrow, to eliminate human tyranny and welcome the arrival of the Lord!"

"cowardly……"

"??"

"Why, what do you have against the Lord?"

"No!"

"I don't know what your Lord is like, but I know what human beings are like. If I didn't know that human beings are hopeless, I might not necessarily join you."

"you……"

And just when the discussions among those ETO remnants gradually became louder, and began to develop into disputes and conflicts, and even the excitement of the past, finally, the quiet discussion of 'Qin Shihuang' and others on the stage ended.

Then the 'Qin Shihuang' also stood up and announced:

"Okay!"

"Everyone, please stop arguing. What everyone just said makes sense, but no matter what, we are all a team and need to comprehensively consider various factors."

"Besides..."

"A few of us have discussed and consulted with the Lord just now, and have reached a consensus. Next, we should continue to observe, stay vigilant, and at the same time strengthen internal connections and training to prepare for the next real battle?

"

"As for the issues we just discussed, I want to reiterate two points!"

"First, the assassination of the little girl is temporarily suspended, whether it is today or tomorrow, because we are too late in terms of time and preparation, so there is no need to say more."

"Second, the Lord has just given us a new mission and new technology!"

"Everyone!"

"The real battle is coming..."

As Qin Shihuang finished speaking, the lights at this virtual gathering point gradually dimmed. At the same time, the images played by Sophon that monitored Anne's wall-facer slowly disappeared, replaced by an unknown mysterious device.

huge pattern.

Seeing that pattern, the expressions of ETO members gradually changed from anger to calmness.

Although the eyes of many people still flashed with deep hatred and dissatisfaction towards the words and deeds of a certain bad little girl just now, they also knew that this game and confrontation did not happen overnight, and it was unrealistic for them to want to accomplish everything in one battle.

The real battle between the two sides is yet to come.

…

And just a few hours later, not long after the ETO remnants finished their discussion and left the virtual world, a call from the PDC headquarters went directly to the captain of Shi Qiang's security team.

"It's really terrible..."

"Who is this late at night?"

"Are you still going to let people sleep?"

Hearing the ringing of his mobile phone instead of the walkie-talkie inside their house, Shi Qiang, knowing that it was definitely not an emergency, complained and kicked off the quilt, then sat down on the soft mahogany bed that exuded a faint wood fragrance.

He got up, then rubbed his eyes in annoyance and grumbled, then took the vibrating mobile phone beside the bedside table into his hand.

You know, it's already three or four in the morning...

In view of the fact that a certain troubled little girl would not fall asleep until early in the morning, the security team, especially the captain of his team, Shi Qiang, had to stay with her until the other party stopped tossing and just followed the little girl who lived her life.

After his secretary, Ms. Luo, went back to his room to wash up and prepare to sleep, he was able to come back to wash up and rest. Calculating, he had just slept for less than an hour?

Therefore, he was woken up by a phone call after less than an hour of sleep. If he was in a good mood, he would be in trouble.

"!!"

"Oh, I'll go!"

But soon, Shi Qiang, who was just about to continue complaining and considering whether to reject the call, saw the name and related notes on the caller ID. He was excited, quickly cheered up, and clicked the green call button with a flattering smile.

road:

"Hello--"

"Director Kanter? It's me, Da Shi!"

"That's right!"

"Excuse me, what can I do for you?"

That's right, the caller was none other than Kanter, the deputy director of the PDC Strategic Planning Department whom he had met at the PDC headquarters on Verne Island. Of course, even if he was the deputy, he had to directly call him "department" when addressing him.

Chang', most of the twists and turns in the officialdom are like this. It's useless, but you must understand it.

"Uh-huh……"

"Nothing, really!"

"Although there is indeed a time zone difference, we have just finished our work and are just getting ready to go to bed. Your call came at the right time."

"real!"

"If you have anything to say, just tell me. I'll remember it!"

"oh--"

"Neutron jammer?"

"Don't worry, Annie has already gone to bed, and then we opened it. Normal calls will definitely not be eavesdropped by Tomoko."

"Uh-huh……"

"What?"

"Dr. Ding Yi and others are coming tomorrow?"

"A whole team?"

"no problem!"

"Of course there is no problem. We promise to do a good job in reception and security. Isn't this our job here!"

"Okay! Okay!"

"but……"

"Director, I suggest you come back at noon or afternoon?"

"ah!"

"I don't mean anything else. Aren't you afraid that Dr. Ding will get tired of waiting like last time? You know, Annie's life schedule is different from others..."

"Don't worry, I can save it!"
