Chapter 395 The Lion's Power Operation

At Google headquarters in Silicon Valley, Schmidt stared in shock at Jared Cohen, the head of Strategic Intelligence.

"What do you mean the war escalated before we even had a chance to make a move? Wasn't it you who killed Harriet?"

Jared Cohen shook his head: "We didn't do it. I've been in contact with high-ranking officials in Israel, and they're just as confused. It might really have been an accident."

As a former member of the U.S. State Department's Policy Planning Council, Jared Cohen had deep connections within the U.S. government. In fact, the White House received information later than he did. He was a key aide to two Secretaries of State and had a very good relationship with Hillary Clinton.

With Hillary Clinton already confirmed as a candidate, she was happy to respond to Google's intelligence requests in order to win them over.

He also served as a bridge between Google and Israel. Being Jewish, he acted as a mouthpiece for both sides, communicating with the Democratic Party through him to many high-ranking Israeli officials. The Israeli leadership placed considerable trust in him.

Schmidt thought for a moment and asked, "Are you sure Israel isn't lying to us?"

"Impossible. Our goals are aligned: to escalate the war. They have no reason to hide this from us. We should start thinking about what to do next. Israel has gone a bit crazy; they want to deploy our AI weapons directly, without setting any targets, just letting them kill anyone they see in Tehran."

Schmidt seemed not to hear him, remaining silent for a moment before asking in a trembling voice, "Could it be the Aurora side? Is it possible that the Aurora side wants to escalate the war, so they orchestrated an accident? You're a geostrategist expert, think about it, wouldn't this benefit the Aurora?"

Jared shuddered, took off his glasses, rubbed his eyes, and glanced at the various documents beside him before saying softly, "It's most likely not them. Israel has nothing to do with them, and neither does Iran. There are two countries surrounding Aurora in the Middle East, all of which are allies of Aurora."

They're not just ordinary allies, they're the super-close kind. The oil tycoons have been investing for decades, and now they finally feel like they've invested in the real future, practically having everything they need from the Aurora Borealis.

There's no need for Aurora to drag the oil tycoons into war just to make them obey.

If we're talking about anything related to the aurora borealis and war, it's probably Bahrain. Bahrain has the closest relationship with the aurora borealis; they started secretly selling aurora-related weapons to Iran last year, which everyone knows, but the quantities aren't large and shouldn't affect the overall war situation. There's really no need to escalate the war.

"Let's think about the worst-case scenario. If it really is the aurora borealis, then he's doing us a disservice, simply not wanting to see us and Israel achieve anything there. What should we do then?"

Jared said with a helpless expression, "What can I do? I'm only in charge of strategy. Don't ask me about the specific effects of our products."

That makes a lot of sense. Jared and Schmidt turned to look at Mark Raibert, who had been silent the whole time.

Mark Raibert was the founder of Boston Dynamics, and after the company was acquired by Google, he was appointed head of the robotics division.

Although many of Boston Dynamics' solutions are now obsolete, and Mark Raibert is somewhat out of touch with the times, Google simply can't find anyone to hire.

Because of its very unsuccessful competition with Aurora in recent years, Google was already experiencing a talent drain.

After Schmidt devised a strategy to completely replicate Aurora's success, Andy Rubin, the father of Android, felt the company had lost its soul and resigned in anger. Now he's a gamer on Oasis, the kind who never logs off except to eat and sleep.

Former moon landing captain Astro Taylor was completely dismissive of robots. He even publicly stated at the company that if robots couldn't actually solve the problems Google wanted to solve, they should do something else and leave the technology entirely to Aurora.

After Schmidt recklessly acquired nine different machine companies, Astro Taylor angrily resigned and is now working as a game developer in Oasis with his old friend Andy Rubin.

Mark Raibert had actually been daydreaming for a while. He was really incompetent at his job at Google. To put it bluntly, he basically just copied the Aurora robot model from the intelligence report, added some settings from science fiction, and created a hybrid mess.

Hearing two people ask him how to photograph the aurora borealis, he felt numb, but being a seasoned veteran in the workplace, he reacted quickly and immediately started shifting the blame.

"Don't look at me. It's not that our robots are bad. In the end, it's our underlying architecture that's not good enough. We still can't catch up with Deepflow, let alone WetBrain's translation technology."

However, while we may not be able to transfer human consciousness very well, with AI chips combined with hardware, our AI is already capable of performing a variety of tasks.

In short, as long as you don't try to see the aurora borealis, there will be absolutely no problem.

This didn't reassure the other two, who asked in unison, "What if we want to see the aurora borealis?"

Mark Raibert nodded confidently: "Don't worry, what if Aurora doesn't go into developing any weapons? Strictly speaking, those drones were also modified agricultural machines."

Perhaps the aurora borealis didn't develop any weapons at all; if so, we would definitely win.

Schmidt slammed his hand on the table: "Give up your illusions and prepare for battle! All of Chen Yiran's past actions have now been exposed online."

Who doesn't know that this guy is a violent maniac with absolutely no sense of security? He bought himself an armored car with the first money he earned. You're telling me he didn't make weapons? Don't make me laugh.

Jared, could you try to persuade Israel to attack Bahrain as well?

Bahrain is Aurora's data center in the Middle East, as well as a weapons distribution center. If we don't attack there, and they continue to provide support to Iran, we might have no chance at all.

"If we take down this headquarters first, our chances will be much better!"

Jared hesitated for a moment and said, "It's not like we've even confirmed Aurora's access yet. Wouldn't it be a bit hasty to take action against Bahrain? The government might not even support us."

Schmidt firmly stated, "I trust my intuition; it's Aurora. Chen Yiran has always disliked us, and we are currently the only company that is technically close to theirs."

To put it even further back, ever since he took over Steve Jobs's legacy, we've been unable to coexist peacefully. He's the kind of person who holds grudges; he said he would destroy us back then, and he actually did it. He even destroyed Android. Now it's a new era; are we going to admit defeat again?

"That's settled then. You handle the communication with the government, okay?"

Jared really wanted to say there was a problem. The one who had a grudge against Chen Yiran was Google and Schmidt, not him. As long as he didn't jump, Chen Yiran probably wouldn't even know what he did.

It's not impossible that they might switch to Aurora in the future.

Schmidt seemed to see through Jared's thoughts and said ominously, "Think about Israel, think about the Jewish question. We're all in the same boat now. Think about how good the relationship is between oil-producing countries and Chen Yiran. Even if he doesn't participate this time, can you guarantee he won't participate in the future?"

His technology will continue to evolve. If we don't create enough trouble for him, it's entirely possible that oil-producing countries could completely destroy Israel with his technology. What will become of you Jews then?

So, if you Jews really had the guts, you should have crushed all the surrounding oil-producing countries this time, instead of just circumventing the US military bases.

Jared cursed Schmidt inwardly, thinking, "Damn German, shameless bastard." But after a moment's hesitation, he nodded: "Leave it to me. I'll persuade the US government to ignore Bahrain. We can just say it's a mechanical failure or something."

And Israel should be fine too. Last year's terrorist attacks in Iran used Aurora drones, so using that as a pretext for war would be perfect.

After saying that, Jared looked at Raibert and said, "It's up to you, brother, for the fate of us Jews."

Raibert, preoccupied with thoughts of his new girlfriend in the oasis, nodded dismissively: "Don't worry, I'm Jewish too, I'll try my best."

--------------------------------------------------

On the evening of June 15, Israel's Operation Lion Power began.

The Israeli Air Force dispatched all six of its C-130J-30 extended Super Hercules transport aircraft, and metal boxes were loaded onto the aircraft, ready for drop.

Electronic warfare aircraft went out first to suppress air defense radars in the direction of Iraq, and then bombers came out to make a show of it and carried out several bombings.

Under various cover, six Hercules helicopters departed from Israel, splitting into two groups and flying toward their respective targets.

Two aircraft transited through Türkiye and circled near the northern border of Iran, waiting for fighter jets.

Four transport planes flew over Jordan and reached the western border of Iran. The planes opened their doors, and more than two hundred metal boxes slid out of the cabin. As they went out, special large parachutes were deployed, and the boxes successfully landed in the Kermanshah Mountains.

Kermanshah is located in the heart of the Zagros Mountains, only 100 kilometers from the Iraqi border. It is the deployment area for Iran's main missile force, which faces Israel.

The mountains here are solid, and after years of construction, the underground caverns have been dug very deep, with a dense network of tunnels, allowing the launch vehicles to enter and exit at any time, rendering Israeli bombing ineffective.

At night, the gliding metal boxes were not visible on radar at all, and they were even painted dark. They were not discovered by the soldiers on night watch until they landed near the ground camp.

Compared to the underground setup, the number of people in the ground camps here is not large, with only a few hundred people in the three camps combined. They immediately organized their manpower and prepared to go out to explore.

Before they could even leave, two hundred six-legged monsters charged towards them.

They are about 1.5 meters long and as tall as an adult's waist when standing upright. Their six legs move very quickly, like giant spiders.

Iranians also use the internet, and in a time when immortality is possible, they are not surprised to see these bizarre robots; they are nothing more than some weapons of American imperialism.

Then they discovered that these guys had very thick armor, which 7.62mm rounds couldn't penetrate, and they were quite fast, almost like armored vehicles.

And they were very agile! Several people carrying rockets actually missed them.

The soldiers knew they needed more anti-armor weapons, but they no longer had the opportunity.

More than two hundred giant spiders charged at them, but they didn't use any chemical weapons; they simply used their physical strength to send the hundreds of people flying everywhere.

The battle was over in minutes, and none of the soldiers in the three defensive camps survived.

Several special little spiders ran incredibly fast. Before all the people were dead, they ran to the back gate and slipped inside before the outer gate of the cave was completely closed. They were agile and took care of all the soldiers guarding the gate.

A few minutes later, all three cave gates were opened, and two hundred giant spiders began to enter the underground tunnels to carry out their slaughter.
