Armor-piercing bullets don't believe in carbon-based monsters

Chapter 351 Creations from Another World
Mountain city, underground.

"You're running out of time."

Looking at the slightly blurry image projected in front of him, Lin Yu spoke to Lin Xi beside him:

"Actually, I'm very curious, how did you see these images?"

"You don't have drones like the Chinese military, so how did you get the footage?"

"satellite."

Lin Xi replied:
“We have satellites.”

"You can think of it as a type of drone that flies very high."

Lin Yu nodded thoughtfully, but then said:

"That's not right either."

"If you fly very high, you must be above the clouds."

"But how could you possibly see through the clouds and fog to see what's on the ground?"

A smile appeared on Lin Xi's face.

"You're very smart; you've figured out the key point."

"But this is actually not a big problem."

"We use an optimized SAR synthetic aperture radar technology, which first generates a grayscale image, and then restores it into a high-precision image that approximates optical imaging based on intelligent algorithms."

“In fact, we have already used this system to observe many places—including the bases of the Chinese army.”

“We know everything.”

After Lin Xi finished speaking, Lin Yu pursed his lips with a hint of sarcasm.

“But you don’t know they will attack, and they’re about to invade your home base.”

"That is impossible."

Lin Xi waved her hand gently, the image of the starry sky faded away, and the two returned to the meadow outside the village.

“We have many ways to stop them from continuing their attack. If necessary, we can even mobilize all the level 1 monsters on the periphery to launch a synchronized offensive against them.”

"Their strength is simply insufficient to withstand such an offensive."

"So it's not that we're running out of time, it's that they're running out of time."

"Then why haven't you made a move yet?"

Lin Yu interrupted Lin Xi, who paused for a moment before replying:
"It's not the last moment yet, and we're not willing to pay an unnecessary price."

"The construction of the mountain city embodies the hard work and wisdom of many people, and we will not allow it to suffer any substantial damage."

When Lin Xi said those words, her tone was incredibly firm.

But Lin Yu remained unmoved.

"So, you've placed your hopes on me."

"You expect me to accept your ideas and then try to persuade them?"

"Yes."

Lin Xi nodded.

"Then why don't you just change my mind? You can clearly read my thoughts, right?"

"Theoretically speaking, you should have that ability too, right?"

Lin Yu's tone revealed a hint of suspicion.

In fact, this was a question he had had since the beginning of the conversation.

He was constantly vigilant about his thoughts being distorted, and he was constantly reflecting on and reviewing his actions.

But even now, he hasn't noticed any change in his thinking.

Or is it that one's memories and thoughts have actually been altered, but one simply doesn't remember them?
The thought sent a chill down his spine, but Lin Xi's "frank" answer immediately surprised him.

"We will not tamper with anyone's thoughts."

"This is the foundation of the mountain city's existence, and it is also the most fundamental design logic of this city."

"This rule cannot be broken."

"This is Agreement One."

Agreement 1.

Lin Yu recalled that he had heard this word before.

Among the people of that mountain town, who were cut down by a scout's blade.

"I see."

Lin Yu seemed lost in thought, while Lin Xi continued:
"In short, we really don't have much time left."

"Then let's continue."

"You now understand our motivations, our plans, and the dilemmas we face."

"Now, I'm going to formally try to persuade you."

Lin Xi waved her hand, and the surrounding scenery changed once again.

The two sat atop a large sand table, looking down at the real ground.

On the ground, there is a small village.

Let's simplify the problem as much as possible.

"It's still based on the background you see in the 'story' to make inferences."

“We designed ‘entropy’ to be action points.” “When you run out of action points, the monster will appear.”

"And what you have to do is use your limited action points to defeat this monster."

"Now, give it a try."

Lin Yu stared at the sand table below, and asked in confusion:
"How to do it?"

Choose your strategy.

Lin Xi explained:
"Each strategy consumes action points and increases the number representing the village's strength."

"When the village's power surpasses that of the monster, you will be able to defeat it."

"You don't need to worry about the names of these strategies, and it's okay if you don't understand them."

"All you need to do is think about how to execute the strategy based on the power boost it brings."

".Understood."

Lin Yu nodded slowly.

He carefully looked at the list of strategy names and tentatively selected a few.

"High-energy particle collider".

"Deep space observation".

"Basic force monitoring".

With just three strategies, he had used up all his action points.

Afterwards, the monster easily destroyed the village.

"try again."

Lin Yu shook his head, and the sand table was reset.

This time, he chose several strategies that consumed fewer points.

"Deep bunker".

"Space colonization".

"Accelerate reproduction".

"Genetic modification".

"High environmental adaptability".

"Information control".

"Technology control".

All points have been used up, and the village's "strength" value has reached over 100.

But Lin Yu discovered that this was still far from the monster's thousand points of power.

Sure enough, the village was destroyed once again.

"This is unreasonable."

"The power gap is too large; there is no way I can defeat the monster through strategic combinations."

"Yes."

Linxi shrugged.

"Isn't this the answer I've been telling you all along?"

"In fact, some of the strategies you have chosen have already been tried in the real world."

"The Holy Blood represents genetic modification, the Flower City represents the accelerated reproduction of mutants, the Mechanical God Cult represents information control and technological control, while the Huaxia Army represents 'high environmental adaptability'."

"But you see, even when all these things are combined, they still can't defeat that monster."

"You can't if you say you can't?"

Lin Yu interrupted Lin Xi.

"This is just the result you wanted me to see, isn't it?"

"Do not."

Lin Xi shook her head.

"This is the inevitable result after extensive simulation."

“I’m newer than you in using these strategy combinations to achieve my goals, but unfortunately, we can’t do it.”

"It's still unreasonable."

Lin Yu shook his head again.

"If you don't have enough points, then just add more."

"Increase points?"

Lin Xi smiled.

"You mean, reverse entropy increase?"

"Entropy increase is irreversible."

"Unless there is a higher-dimensional 'space' or power that devours the already generated information entropy."

"This way, you'll have more points."

"But that's simply impossible."

"You're not going to tell me that those so-called 'Chinese Army' aren't 'material entities' of this world at all, but creations from another dimension that we can't understand yet, are you?"
