Chapter 55 The Tranquility Before the Storm
But there was something that surprised Lu Chen. Lu Chen thought that after the two battles yesterday and so many soldiers were killed, the military would rush out to attack when they saw Skynet to avenge their companions, but their reaction puzzled Lu Chen.
Lu Chen, who was underground, could feel that the military had just sent people to search, but it was over after just a moment of search. He did not dare to stay too much, so he returned to the base and did not send troops to attack at all.
The military's approach seemed to be scared by those two battles, but this was obviously impossible. Although Skynet showed strong strength in those two battles, it did not feel invincible.
Moreover, the most important thing is that the troops coming from Skynet are all defeated soldiers and do not have much force, and the military is just a base. Even if the strength of this base cannot beat Skynet, the troops in other parts of the country should come to support it.
The US team, which is full of efforts, is not something that the terminators and other defeated generals can deal with. There is no pursuit or support, but instead has a little fear. Such a military made Lu Chen understand that something must have been wrong. However, he has never entered the base and does not know the inside story. Lu Chen does not know where the military's problems are.
Although I don’t know where the problem lies, Lu Chen’s face looked very bad. The military’s reaction means that the military, the contractor, may not be able to deal with Skynet’s attack. Lu Chen’s strategy of relying on the military to defend may not be successful.
However, it was impossible for Lu Chen to change his mind at this time, and the forces around him were the strongest. They could not deal with them, and Lu Chen didn't know where to ask for help.
At this time, the contractor had no choice but to hide and wait, and the overall strength was too different. At this time, the contractor did not dare to fight against the robots of Skynet at all.
While frowning, Lu Chen was thinking about these things, while using shock perception to observe the movements around him. Because there were military troops in the air and on the ground to help resist, Lu Chen now placed most of his mental power underground, for fear that some ground-digging robot would appear in the Skynet and come to attack him and others.
However, Lu Chen miscalculated this time. After the two tentative attacks of Skynet failed, several hours passed. However, no robot appeared, as if he had given up on Connor Salad.
But Lu Chen knew that Space would not let the contractor go so easily, and Skynet would not give up Connor salad so easily. The biggest purpose of its coming was to stop the birth of John Connor. As long as Connor salad was in the hands of the contractor, it would definitely attack.
It did not appear, leaving the contract feeling nervous, afraid that it would have any conspiracy, but it also gave the contractor a chance to breathe. Not to mention the others, the two captains in the contractor had completely recovered under the treatment of the drug.
The mental and physical strength consumed by the ranged contractors in the battle just now have almost recovered. Although the two seriously injured have not recovered yet, for the contractors, they finally have a certain ability to resist. After the physical strength is restored, they will have more chances of survival whether they leave or stay.
As the strength recovered, the emotions of the two captains also recovered a little. Although the death of the team members still made the Oak a little sad, in the space, death is common. The contractors who had survived for a long time have become accustomed to the existence of death and each has their own way of adjusting. Without Lu Chen's comfort, the Oak adjusted his emotions by himself.
Seeing that they had recovered completely, Lu Chen also told them all the information and asked them about their next plan. Although Lu Chen, who had exposed his strength, was still familiar with these two veterans about some skills in survival in space. Lu Chen is not a fool and knows when to ask others' opinions.
Unfortunately, the two captains had no choice when it came to Lu Chen's inquiry. They had only heard about the survival task, but the specific one was not very certain. At this time, the overall strength of Skynet was completely overwhelming the contractors. In this case, they could not think of any good way to do it. They could only follow Lu Chen's approach and continue to hide in the dungeon and wait for the judgment of fate.
Among them, Lu Chen noticed something slightly. After Lu Chen's strength was exposed, the contractor also knew Lu Chen's identity, but the two captains did not mention this matter at all when discussing with Lu Chen. It seemed that they had never heard of the wanted chariot captain Tie Fist.
But this was simply impossible. The wanted spot was quite widely circulated in the space at that time. The 8,000 survival point was a totally giving away money to a novice who had only experienced one trial mission. Such a thing was talked about by other contractors. The other contractors present would not be unaware of it. Not to mention that they were just afraid of offending Lu Chen and pretending.
However, when they knew they were pretending, Lu Chen did not mean to expose them. At this time, they were in such a dangerous situation and could only survive by cooperating. If you don’t tell me about this, it will be of some benefit to both parties.
When Lu Chen noticed such a thing, he only paid attention to it. At the same time, he made up his mind that he would not consume his mental power until he was absolutely sure. Although they should not do anything to themselves in the current dangerous environment, but what if they survived for a long time in such a depressed environment, the contractors were a little crazy.
Time passed slowly in the waiting of the contractors. As everyone's strength recovered, their confidence became a little more abundant, and their emotions improved a lot, and they were no longer so depressed. What's more, they had been resting for more than five hours in the dungeon prepared by Lu Chen. It is very likely that Skynet had no choice but to hide underground and could hide here until the end of the mission and return to space.
This may not be possible. As long as Skynet cannot solve the military's problems, Skynet's robots will not be able to quickly dig within the range of military artillery.
In this way, Lu Chen, who has control over the soil, is indeed possible to lead them to successfully complete the task. The other contractors who thought about this also looked good, but only Lu Chen was not so optimistic.
Although I don’t know much about survival tasks because of the lack of space and time, Lu Chen understands that Skynet is not so easy to give up. The longer the contractors rest, the stronger the attack will be when the next space comes to attack. Now it is just the tranquility before the storm.
