Xiao Xingyue hummed, and said again: "It's okay, you will learn your wisdom from a pit. The problem now is your territory. Even if I bring you back to Xiayuanjing City, the Mengdu Group can't do anything to you anymore , but your subordinates are in a somewhat dangerous situation, and the possibility of Hewitt’s peripheral forces uniting to launch a siege against you cannot be ruled out. After all, under the autonomy order, war is legal.”

Ren Zhong: "Yes. So I need more help."

After talking here, Ying Hao finally couldn't help but interjected in the communicator, "No problem. I, Shenxun Group, Tanggu Group, and Zijing Mining will give you enough support."

Ren Zhong: "Thank you!"

Chapter 395 More Evil Than Evil

Ren Zhong didn't go straight to Xiayuanjing City, but asked Xiao Xingyue to send him back to Xinghuo Town first.

After returning to the town, he first presided over a meeting and gathered most of the senior managers.

Some of them were too late to return, so they listened through "Monternet".

At the meeting, Ren Zhong first commended everyone for their recent performance.

Although the pace of foreign military expansion has temporarily stopped, it seems that the Ren Group has not changed much recently, but it is still changing every day here.

Newly promoted talents continue to walk out of the college, move towards scattered towns newly included in the territory of Yuanxing, and quickly integrate into the local area, and quickly revitalize the urban resource recovery companies that have been taken over. Continue to climb.

At the same time, with the all-round support of Zijing Mining Yuanxing Military Industry, one after another new oil and coal mining areas were quickly built and put into production.Every day, new coal ore and oil are sent to the territory of the Ren Group through carrier airships.

One after another thermal power plants, oil refineries, internal combustion engine manufacturing plants, etc. are being erected.

The group chose the idea of ​​balanced development, and did not concentrate all resources in Xinghuo Town, but gradually spread outward.

These new industries provided more jobs, and drove more unemployed non-professionals to move here at any cost.

Ren's Group received everything they ordered, and saw population growth every day.

The growth rate of the population even exceeded the speed of the creation of jobs, and the unemployment rate once climbed to more than 10%.

At this time, Ren Zhong ordered the Starfire Army to expand again to solve this problem.

A large number of young and middle-aged men enlisted in the army and began to receive elite-level military training. On the one hand, it freed up posts, and on the other hand, it further enhanced the war potential of the Starfire Army.

Ren Zhong praised: "Everyone has done a good job, but we can't be complacent. We should always keep in mind the more distant goal, and keep moving towards it unswervingly. Every time we relax, it means that we are one step closer to death, and we will continue to move towards it." Or disappoint those relatives, friends and subordinates who pin their hopes in life on you."

"Half a day ago, I just escaped from the Mengdu Group, and I did some things there..."

Ren Zhong and everyone announced the big trouble he caused in Mengdu City.

"The Mengdu Group will not let it go. Next, we are likely to face an enemy from all sides. Our resource recovery companies and mines in other places may also be raided."

After saying this, Ren Zhong was silent for a while.

He was watching the reaction of the crowd.

If it is a normal force, when they hear the leader announce such important news, most people will feel uneasy and start all kinds of anxiety.

But here, no.

No one whispered to each other, and no one frowned. Everyone still raised their necks, quietly waiting for Ren Zhong's next words.

Everyone knows that no matter what the situation, he must have a way.

Ren Zhong was very satisfied with everyone's reaction, and said again: "At the same time, we will also get the full support of our partners, whether it is manpower, materials, or transportation forces, all-round support. This incident is both a risk and an opportunity. , because risks and opportunities always coexist. The Starfire Army has been at war for a long time, and it's time for people to see what a real army is."

"From now on, the Ren Group has entered a state of first-level combat readiness. Facing any provocation, it must carry out the most ruthless strike. Only a real war can test whether the blood and sweat in the weekdays have been shed in vain! The meeting is over! Sun Miao, Come to my office."

Three hours later, Sun Miao finished reading most of the core content of the materials brought back by Ren Zhong, and fell into a long exam.

He lay on his back on the reception sofa in Ren Zhong's office, curled up into a ball, closed his eyes and meditated, scratching his ears and cheeks.

In fact, Ren Zhong already knew what conclusion he would draw, but he didn't point it out.

Ren Zhong looked at Sun Miao's appearance, but he was a little lost.

Today, Sun Miao is no longer poor and has a lot of assistants under him, but he is still sloppy, with messy hair shaped like a chicken coop, and the protruding cheekbones on his face are black with ointment of unknown material , all kinds of color spots on the white coat are intertwined into a world-famous painting, which looks very rough.

Even, compared to when we first met, Sun Miao is thinner now.

In addition, Ren Zhong's keen eyesight also noticed that there were a few extra silver strands in Sun Miao's hair.

When a person starts to have gray hair, it means that the person has passed away and is stepping into aging.

Sun Miao has been very tired and exhausted.Ren Zhong really wanted Sun Miao to take a break, otherwise he thought that Sun Miao would definitely not survive the day of the Great Migration.

But Sun Miao couldn't rest now.

The biomedical sector of the entire Ren Group is completely supported by him, whether it is research and development or production, everything has to rely on him.

Ren Zhong didn't know what to do for a while, but an inexplicable sadness gradually rose in his heart.

"Ren Zhong, what the hell are you doing? I'm talking to you about something, and you're still asleep! Damn!"

A roar rang in his ears, pulling Ren Zhong back from his fugue state.

He smiled embarrassingly, "I was just thinking about something and lost my mind, Brother Sun, tell me."

Sun Miao hummed, and then said in a solemn tone: "Besides me, there are indeed experts in Lab No. [-] of the Mengdu Group. I know the contents of the 'Tree Project' from the bottom up, but I didn't expect that after I left, they would not Instead of standing still, we kept moving forward.”

Ren Zhong: "Yes. I was also shocked when I saw it."

Sun Miao said again: "But what is really scary is the Legion Beast Project. I used to only know about warriors in costumes, and I have dissected many Ruins beasts, and even participated in the research and development of extracting Ruins beast genes to make potions for breeding outfits, but so It is unprecedented to completely transform a human being into a pure beast while maintaining a human mind."

Ren Zhong: "Yes, Hewitt is insane."

Sun Miao shook his head, "It's not just Hewitt Augustus, but the entire Mengdu Group. They have been insane since ancient times. Such a huge analysis of genetic information must be accompanied by tens of millions of experiments. Without a few hundred years, it is absolutely impossible to achieve this step. But what is truly terrifying is the fission that occurred after combining the 'Tree Project' and the 'Legion Beast Project'."

Ren Zhong: "I would like to hear the details."

Sun Miao: "It is entirely possible to gather together many vegetative people with multiple heads to form a calculation-oriented legion of orcs with super computing power. If more people are continuously integrated into it, it is even possible to create a computing power approaching" Net''s super brain monster. This monster has both the memory ability of an intelligent brain and the reasoning and divergent thinking ability of a human being. I'm not sure if the No. The people in the No. [-] laboratory are still stronger after all."

Ren Zhong opened his mouth wide in surprise, "Unbelievable! Unbelievable!"

Sun Miao: "Stop acting, I know you already know."

Ren Zhong: "..."

Those who know me, Sun Ge also.

Sun Miao: "But the question now is whether to do it or not."

Ren Zhong thought about it, and decided to tell Sun Miao about another monster he saw in the depths of Base No. [-].

These are two different pseudo-"network" ideas.One needs a human brain, the other does not need a human brain, only a human body.

Both paths are very evil, the difference is that from an ethical point of view, the path proposed by Sun Miao is more evil, but the effect is bound to be faster.

After listening to Sun Miao, he thought for a moment and gave a suggestion, "I think we have to give it a go. To defeat evil, you have to be more evil than evil. The responsibility is heavy. I know you are a good person. So, I don't want you in this matter." Make the decision, leave it to me. Anyway, I have already killed so many people when I was in the Mengdu Group, and I don’t care about killing a few more."

Ren Zhong shook his head, "Don't excuse me, I am the final decision maker, and I cannot shirk responsibility."

Chapter 396 Hate and Gratitude

Sun Miao shook her lips, hesitated to speak, but in the end she only sighed, "That's right, it's just deception, and it's really only you who should bear the responsibility."

Ren Zhong: "Well. Then, the most important thing is to choose people."

Sun Miao said solemnly: "Yes, choose some volunteers."

Ren Zhong: "Well, volunteers. Real volunteers."

Some things are easier said than done.

What is difficult is not the process of doing this, but the inner torment that needs to be endured during the process.

According to Sun Miao's narration, when executing the tree project, the subject's brain will remain awake.

As the neck is remodeled and new brain splits proliferate, conscious surgeons will fall into huge physical and psychological pain for a long time. Few people can bear this pain and will always find opportunities to end it on their own.

The Mengdu Group's solution to this phenomenon is very simple and crude. It cuts off half of the brain nerves of the surgeon so that the brain cannot give active commands to the body.

However, if the subject is to be re-entered into the Legion Beast project, his mobility must be restored.Then the surgeon who has the will to die will definitely seek his own death at the first time.

Therefore, in order to improve the success rate of the experiment and reduce unnecessary deaths, Sun Miao pointed out that volunteers must have a healthy body and a strong psychological quality. In addition, they must also highly recognize the heavy responsibilities of the cause, otherwise they will definitely not be able to carry it.

Therefore, Ren Zhong first made a personnel screening, and he could only choose from the combatants who had already withstood the test.

Ren Zhong first called Zheng Tian, ​​Yu Jin, Yuan Qinhu, Shi Xuan, Ma Xiaoling and other front-line combat commanders to the office, and said, "You guys write me a list to screen out such people."

"First, the age is under 25 years old. Second, there is a family with children, and more than one. Third, there is no achievement in the field of combat and work, and there is no talent. Fourth, there are those who are beyond the limit of their abilities. Responsibility and spiritual quality. This group of people will go on a long-term mission with ten deaths and no lives. They will endure long-term torture in this long-term mission. The company will give a clear commitment to take care of their families forever, and Their names will be engraved on the Hero Monument. You just need to know the following things for the time being, and I will make it clear when I interview them when the candidates are selected."

About half a day later, Ren Zhong saw nearly 300 people in the small conference room, both men and women, all young and middle-aged.

Before speaking, he took a quick look at the personal information of these people.

These people are basically professional soldiers who have stayed in the Starfire Army for a while, and most of them have now been transferred to the basic military literacy training center as instructors.

When the Starfire Army was short of personnel, it lowered its standards and recruited a large number of non-professionals into the army.

Up to now, after a long period of experience, this group of recruits has also become veterans. The veterans have not only experienced a life-and-death battle, but also formed a deep friendship with their comrades in the battle. family has brought about life-changing.

Some veterans have enough resources to support the next step and go up the professional road one step at a time, and have become fourth-level or even fifth-level professionals.

The ones with less talent are also at the first level, second level and third level, and they have basically entered the formal battle sequence.

But everyone has their own destiny, and some things are limited by talent, there is no way, and it does not depend on people's will.

Although some people work as hard as others and enjoy the same resource support, they just cannot cross the threshold of a first-level professional.

In the end, after more and more recruits grew up to replace them, this group of people had to accept a cruel reality.

That is, they are no longer qualified to fight side by side with their comrades-in-arms, and those who are behind in strength will only become a burden on the battlefield. Instead of harming others and themselves, they should leave.

So, with great regret, this group of people bid farewell to their comrades who shared life and death, retreated to the second line, and became an instructor who popularized basic courses for pure newcomers.

They are also dedicated to their duties in their posts, and they continue to send fresh blood to the Starfire Army.

But as they watched their trainees become professionals one after another, leaving the training center and taking up new positions, this group of instructors gradually lost their mentality.

They are determined to kill the enemy and serve the heavy responsibilities, but they are powerless.Especially when they occasionally heard the news that their comrades died on the front line, the powerlessness accumulated in their hearts became more intense.

When they received interviews from high-level commanders and told them that there was such a special and important task waiting for them here, they signed up enthusiastically without the slightest hesitation.

Ren Zhong tapped on the table lightly, focusing everyone's attention on himself.

He started clearly and said slowly.

"Everyone, this is a mission that will lead to a process that is worse than death, and will inevitably lead to death in the end. Once you join in, you will immediately bid farewell to your family. At the same time, I also want to tell you that this mission is related to the future of the Ren Group. Long-term fate. If successful, we can even replace the association, rewrite the history of Yuan Xing, and liberate everyone. As for you, although I cannot guarantee your lives, I can guarantee that your families will receive long-term care. Yours The martyr's pension will continue to be issued until the family has lasted for five generations and lasts for at least 100 years."

"This...is the entire task introduction I gave you. I can't say more, but you should have understood the importance and meaning of this matter. Now, you still have one more chance to make a choice, and you can also withdraw, and Return to your original post. I would never push anyone to do something they don't want to, but I still want to say it. I need your help."

The young people in the audience all looked up at Ren Zhong, their eyes gradually filled with fanaticism.

Ren Zhong already knew their answers, but his heart felt heavy instead.

He finally understood the state of mind of those commanders in the historical stories when they let their subordinates go to a dead end.

About two hours later, Ren Zhong returned to his villa in the White Wall District of Xinghuo Town.

At this time, nearly 300 people had all entered the depths of Sun Miao's biochemical laboratory.

Ju Qingmeng was still dealing with things at the company's headquarters. Ren Zhong sat at the dining table alone and asked the robot to deliver the food. After thinking about it, he simply ordered a large bottle of wine, which was rare.

When Ju Qingmeng came back, Ren Zhong was half drunk.

Knowing what Ren Zhong did today, she stepped forward and hugged him gently, "It's okay, it will be fine. I know it wasn't your intention, but didn't you tell me before that the revolution is not There will always be bloodshed when you invite guests to dinner."

Ren Zhong looked up at Ju Qingmeng, "Now I take advantage of their fanatical admiration for me, but I can be sure that when they fall into long-term pain, they will definitely hate me in their hearts."

Ju Qingmeng: "No, they will cycle alternately between hatred and gratitude until the end of their lives."

Chapter 397 I am no longer holy

Ever since he could remember, Ren Zhong had never let himself get out of control.

This time he made an exception.

In the early morning of the next day, Ren Zhong sat up from the soft bed and looked at his watch.

It was already seven o'clock in the morning, and Ju Qingmeng went out early again.

Ren Zhong recalled his gaffe last night, shook his head, and patted his face again.
