These people initiated many useless but interesting experiments. They had performed many successful craniotomy and brain preservation operations before the war, and had accumulated a lot of experience. This is why these minds dared to remove their own brains and place them in containers.
But today, the minds of these great mountains have realized that they have run out of materials for experiments. They are too eager to conduct different experiments and observe what happens to different samples.
So these people spread teleportation devices across the wasteland. Anyone who touched it would be anesthetized and then teleported to an operating room in the mountains.
Afterwards, the unlucky guy was pressed on the operating table in panic, and the automatic doctor quickly removed his brain and placed a Tesla coil to replace the original brain.
Just like that, a freshly minted brainless person and a fresh brain appeared in the material library.
The brain can be used for all sorts of experiments without ethical restrictions. Putting a human brain into a dog's head, or performing logic modification and memory erasure tests on it are all very worthwhile research.
The brainless people were of no use, so these thought bodies simply threw them into the mountains to fend for themselves.
They are not worried that these brainless people will run away. The mountain range is surrounded by a unique coil that can effectively prevent the brainless people from leaving the mountain range or entering the locations of the think tanks.
These thinking bodies, which only have brains left, constantly capture new experimental materials and then use them in various experiments as casually as using mice.
Among these people, there was one who could not bear the condemnation of his conscience. Although he had transformed himself into a creature with only a brain left, he still retained enough humanity.
When these think tanks felt that the Great Mountains were too small and boring and were preparing to go out into the world to find a larger experimental site, this thought entity who still had a conscience took action.
He left the think tank and occupied a base in the north of the Great Mountain Range. He used the Great Mountain Range's technology to create a large number of tough and invincible mechanical scorpions, iterating them many times to ensure that those thought entities without arms and legs and unable to fight could not enter their respective laboratories.
He then used technical means to change the cognition of these thinking entities (after all, the brains of these thinking entities were connected to Tesla coils and could receive signals), causing them to lose the ability to perceive the outside world.
At the same time, his mechanical scorpions and terrorist broadcasts created panic, forcing the thinking bodies here to have no time to consider what was wrong with themselves.
Dozens of laboratories lie within the Great Mountains. However, these labs, housing powerful technology, are now practically abandoned. If even a single leak of their contents were to occur, the outside world would find it even more difficult to endure.
This thought entity, which still has a conscience, has been fighting wits and courage with these people for a long time, until now.
This thought, now called Mobius, was struggling to prevent the dangerous technologies of the old world from destroying the world again.
***
At dusk, the helicopter flew over the protective net made of coils. The sun had not yet set, so Sun Yang could still see the situation below clearly.
"Let's go find Mobius!" Sun Yang compared the directions in his memory and directed three helicopters to move towards a certain building.
The restricted area dome was originally a local weapons and war factory. Now it has been occupied by Mobius and has become a place that continuously produces mechanical scorpions.
The building was not far from the northern tunnel, and Sun Yang found it at a glance. Of course, the main reason was that the densely packed mechanical scorpions below kept shooting lasers upwards, trying to shoot the helicopter down.
These scorpions have relatively poor elevation shooting capabilities, and Sun Yang knew early on that there were far more laser weapons than live ammunition weapons in the mountains, so he installed additional laser-resistant armor plates and coatings on these helicopters in advance.
Of course, Sun Yang didn't have this technology originally, but after dismantling the Brotherhood's power armor, the humanoid simply followed suit, and after a brief analysis, he knew what to do.
The mechanical scorpions below fired dense lasers, most of which flew into the air, while a small portion hit the bottom of the cabin, but only left a few black marks. Now it was the turn of these radiation local forces to give Sun Yang a scratch.
The ground-to-ground cannons mounted on the underside of the stealth helicopter opened fire. With a heavy roar, these high-speed, large-caliber cannons fired deadly 25mm warheads at the mechanical scorpion below.
These red and yellow mechanical scorpions were torn to pieces in an instant. Even the high-performance Saturn alloy armor was not enough to withstand this level of firepower.
Three helicopters plowed the concrete floor and soil below, leaving only shattered wreckage and concrete residue in the dark soil.
[Reloading.] The piloting figure was solely responsible for all weapon systems. Once the cannons had fired their rounds, new ammunition would be loaded back into the ammunition bay via the 3D printer. This was Irons technology, originally used in AST power armor. The Oasis Research Department modified it slightly, changing the caliber, and installed it on the helicopter.
This is also why the new helicopter can carry more supplies, because 3D printing materials and printing machines take up less space than live ammunition.
Griffin's humanoids jumped down directly, carrying various dangerous weapons.
The power suit's cushioning system minimized wear and tear on the knee and ankle joints. The humanoids, carrying heavy firepower, rushed into the restricted area dome in a bustling manner.
Three helicopters then circled nearby, smashing any mechanical scorpions that dared to come to support into pieces.
"Mobius! I know you are here! I want to talk to you!" Sun Yang also jumped off the plane, holding a loudspeaker and speaking to the inside of the door.
He stimulated the curse fire within his body and gave himself a violent sweating spell to increase his fire resistance. He then swung out a lightning spear, directly electrocuting an approaching mechanical scorpion, causing it to short-circuit and paralyze.
Unless the opponent is large enough and has sufficient protection, the lightning gun will definitely crush these technological mechanical creations.
"NO! I refuse to communicate with you! Despicable Brotherhood of Steel! You want to reclaim my technology?! You want to monopolize this dangerous technology?! I~! Mobius~! Will never agree to that!"
A nearby mechanical scorpion used a loudspeaker to broadcast Mobius's somewhat frantic words.
"I know you! Brotherhood of Steel! You sent a mad Elder Elijah, who messed up everything here! And then you sent a woman named Christine to hunt him down! Now! You pulled out dozens of people and want to occupy the Great Mountain Range, right?! You guys! This is terrible! This is terrible!"
"I am not the Brotherhood of Steel! In fact, I was the one who defeated them and forced them to retreat. I beat them all the way here! I defeated them because I did not agree with the Brotherhood's principles!" Sun Yang shouted towards the nearby area, but a scorpion tail suddenly appeared at a corner of the nearby room and shot a laser directly at Sun Yang.
The mechanical scorpion did not respond immediately. It still abided by the rules of engagement and shot lasers at Sun Yang.
The laser hit Sun Yang's chest, piercing his power suit, but Sun Yang wasn't pierced. The effect of the intense sweating spell was quite reliable.
As we all know, the principle of lasers is that laser light emitted from a laser source is focused into a high-power density laser beam through an optical system. When the beam reaches the target, it causes the target to reach its melting or boiling point. In other words, this is considered heat energy...
The thin layer of sweat attached to Sun Yang's body absorbed a lot of heat, and this layer of sweat greatly weakened the power of the laser.
In addition, the vitality of the undead will definitely increase after upgrading (even if you don’t point to vitality in Dark Souls 2, each level will provide health points), which makes Sun Yang’s body surpass that of ordinary people. This laser has no effect on him.
Sun Yang, who was a little annoyed, pinched a dripping stone, shot a lightning gun at the mechanical scorpion, and then used the repair to repair his clothes.
"Damn it! Mobius, you're pissing me off!"
"Oh~! God! Of course I have to provoke you! You have more tricks than those in the Brotherhood of Steel, and your organization is even stronger! You are more powerful and more evil than the Brotherhood of Steel! I will destroy you! I will never let you succeed! I! The righteous and evil Mobius! I will save this world! My mechanical army! Destroy these hateful enemies!"
Mobius screamed, and more scorpions came out from all directions.
"Commander, if you can't communicate with others, could you please ask the postman to come over?" M14 and the puppet complained weakly on the communication channel while knocking down mechanical scorpions of all sizes with their guns.
Honestly, I'm not sure that's a good thing. That guy, Postman Number Six, is usually even more talkative than the Commander, and his words are far more pungent. He only has a few moments of real skill with his words, but most of the time, he's just driving people's blood pressure down. I'd rather hear the Commander spout a bunch of nonsense.] Makarov protested first.
"Stop talking nonsense. Have you located the opponent's position?" Sun Yang threw out more lightning guns. The mechanical scorpion that the humanoids needed several shots or grenades to defeat, he only needed one accurate lightning gun.
[Location successful, shared with the entire team.] Makarov transmitted the coordinates to the others, and Team Thomson began to advance in coordination with Team Palette, engaging in fierce street fighting with these mechanical scorpions within the factory.
AAT held the experimental heavy laser gun very carefully. Every time he pulled the trigger, a blazing and blinding beam of light shot towards the mechanical scorpion opposite.
The scorpions equipped with Saturn alloy armor plates were penetrated by the laser in less than half a second, and the walls behind them were cut open.
"I think this weapon is really dangerous." AAT shuddered for a few seconds before retreating, holding the laser gun. The weapon, which spewed scorching-hot beams, began to emit heavy smoke. AAT pulled a lever on it, rapidly cooling the gun.
"Enough of the nonsense, let's go!" Makarov bombarded the room with explosives. She and her team advanced quickly, occupying a favorable position. Sten sent her puppet inside for physical reconnaissance, but was immediately captured by a mechanical scorpion around the corner. The two forelimbs of these mechanical scorpions were no mere decorations; they were high-voltage clamps.
Sten's puppet immediately fired its plasma pistol at the scorpions, but it took time for the weapon to penetrate the mechanical scorpions. The scorpions' forelimbs discharged electricity, directly paralyzing the puppet.
201 Defeat Mobius
But the following troops did not push forward. Sten remotely unlocked the puppet's nuclear fusion core and directly activated the self-destruct option.
[I didn't expect it would be useful here, hehehe!] Siden's main body moved a little further away. She was humanoid, so her safe distance was different from a human's. It was just a little radiation, no big deal.
[Idiot! The Commander is still here!] Makarov roared, but self-destruction was an option that could not be stopped.
[Huh?] Si Deng glanced back. Sun Yang silently took out a bottle of Radiation Repellent and took several pills. He turned and walked into a nearby room. He needed to change into radiation-resistant gear.
Bang! The shockwave and heat waves from the nuclear fusion core explosion washed over the entire corridor. The brief EMP and radioactive radiation it produced slightly affected the humanoids' vision and mobility.
"At least we can be sure those scorpions are dead. Why don't we just stop using those guns and just let the puppets charge forward or throw in the nuclear fusion core to self-destruct?" Sten felt like he had discovered a whole new way of fighting.
"Damn it, we want the technology here, not to raze it to the ground! If I want to clean this place out, why don't I just let you guys blow it up with bombs!" Sun Yang changed into the best radiation-proof gear he could find at the base. As soon as he stepped outside, the Geiger counter started beeping like crazy.
"Oh~! Damn! What did you do! You, you exposed your people to radiation! Are you all crazy?!" Mobius's intermittent shouts came from other places.
"Because my people are not afraid of radiation. Mobius, I am not a good person, but I will not drag someone in and take out his brain just for some stupid experiments. The experiments here are too poorly managed, and I can't sit idly by." Sun Yang followed behind the humanoid, and the humanoid in front kept firing, destroying those unchanging mechanical scorpions.
One puppet after another was knocked down by the opponent's laser fire, but Sun Yang kept collecting the remains and then brought out more puppets to replenish the team.
"Hahaha. That sounds nice. You want the technology here? And you want to manage it?! Are you worthy~?" Mobius' voice sounded again.
"I have the ability to control this place. I have the ability to prevent other minds from conducting experiments that are not abusive. All experiments will be under my control. Do you know NCR and Mojave? The people there are troubled by agricultural problems. A large-scale food crisis may break out soon."
"......What do you mean?" The humanoids' exchange of fire stopped, and the mechanical scorpions received a signal and retreated to the rear.
"I need you to make every effort to restore people's livelihood, especially to find and develop agricultural technologies. I want to spread these technologies. Only in this way can people have enough food to eat. Only when people have enough food to eat and settle down can civilization be revived." Sun Yang explained in a sonorous and powerful voice.
"You look different from those people in the Brotherhood of Steel. They only seek more military technology and regard laser guns as gold. You are different. At least you can say something decent." Mobius' voice sounded again.
"It seems the conversation has reached a deadlock. So, let me prove to you that I don't need to spy on your military technology. You've built so many robotic scorpions, I'll dismantle and destroy them all."
"Ha! How dare you brag! Do you think you can defeat me with just a few flying birds and brave soldiers?!" Mobius sneered.
"If products made with advanced technology cannot defeat me, it means that the military technology I already possess is more powerful than the mountains. Then let me ask you, if I have a military force stronger than the mountains, do I still need to come here to look for military technology to deal with people outside?" Sun Yang spoke a bunch of crooked logic in a very proud manner.
"The Great Mountain Range is a research base, not a base for developing military weapons!" Mobius said angrily.
"So you haven't produced anything decent in two hundred years? Two hundred years, and you can't even deal with a bunch of people who happened to pass by and attack you? You obviously have more advanced technology, but you can't even beat a high-tech barbarian? You are the one who is complacent." Sun Yang mocked him directly.
"Hmph, all right. Anyway, if you win, nothing I say will be of any use. You can still occupy the entire mountain range. I understand what you mean. Then try to defeat my machine army. Defeat my army and prove your strength!" Mobius's voice stopped abruptly, and the machine scorpions that had been piled up around him and were ready to move began to crawl again.
"Commander, we're under a suspected DDOS attack," M14 said. She sent the data to Oasis network security officers Antonina and Sun Yang.
The reason they called it suspected was mainly because the frequency of the attacks was so low. The few T-dolls in the battle didn't take it seriously at all. Normally, their water group receives information at a higher frequency than this.
"That's the difference in hardware. If you can counter it, do so. If there's no problem, keep moving forward."
After all, for the Fallout world where electronic technology is very backward, being able to attack with DDOS is already a very unexpected tactic.
Mobius already knew that those fighting bravely were robots, after all, signals couldn't be faked. But the gap in hardware wasn't so easily overcome.
Antonina from Oasis made up some random things and sent them over, and soon the sound of something falling was heard from a nearby loudspeaker.
"Ahh, you you are, pig girl! You you are a pig! Stupid--" Mobius made a stuttering sound as if he had been attacked by a virus.
"What's going on? Don't kill this guy, he still has some brains." Sun Yang opened the window and called Antonina.
"I just sent the records of our chain game yesterday. It should be fine. The volume is about one gigabyte?" Antonina shrugged.
Fortunately, although the hardware is a bit inferior, the human brain is still a very good processor. Even if a lot of garbage information is stuffed into the head, Mobius only twitches for ten seconds before recovering.
"Don't think you can defeat me with such vicious means!" Mobius said a final harsh word through the loudspeaker and blocked the signal.
He seemed to be frightened by Antonina's spam campaign and never launched any strange DDOS attacks again.
The humanoids continued to advance rapidly. The mechanical scorpions' support was far faster than the humanoids' destruction. After half an hour of fighting between rooms, Sun Yang and the humanoid team finally broke into a massive space.
This space was very dark and empty, with only a few protruding concrete houses at the farthest end. These houses were connected by steel stairs, which should be used for scientific observation.
In the center of the dark room, a huge mechanical scorpion lay there with its back to everyone.
When the humanoid team and Sun Yang rushed in, Mobius' voice rang out again.
"Attention! Visitors! Combat experiments are underway! Bring your goggles and anti-radiation pills! Please enjoy! My most supreme masterpiece! The X42 Giant Steel Scorpion! It will tear you apart!"
The scorpion then slowly turned its body—far too slowly. It was so large and heavy that its legs groaned from the excessive weight. Bionic structures can sometimes be reliable, but if they are overly enlarged and made of substandard materials, they can become a burden.
Only by using a natural material like Saturn alloy can this huge body be supported by several legs to move, but it can only move slowly.
In Sun Yang's opinion, it would be better to make a four-legged or six-legged all-terrain tank than to make such a large scorpion. After all, the legs of such a structure are thick enough to stand more steadily.
Although the electromagnetic cannon installed on the tail of this machine looks very scary, its range of movement is relatively limited. It cannot attack humanoids before it turns completely around.
"Oh wait! Why is it turning so slowly! I, I should turn the chassis!" Mobius' panicked voice sounded again, but now no one was waiting for him to slowly turn to the correct position.
The humanoids all took out their MDL grenade launchers in unison, while the AATs raised their heavy laser guns. Everyone aimed at the mechanical scorpion, which had difficulty turning due to its large size, and pulled the trigger.
Dozens of smart grenades flew out of the gun's muzzle in each batch. These grenades stayed in the air for half a second before crashing straight into the clumsy creature that had just turned halfway.
A large portion of these grenades are plasma grenades, while the other portion are conventional high-explosive grenades.
Although the high-temperature jets formed by these exploding plasmas could hardly penetrate the thick Saturn alloy armor, there were too many grenades hitting it.
Saturn alloy has extremely high heat absorption and heat storage capabilities. After being fired red-hot, it can maintain high temperatures for several hours. Once heated to red-hot, it is enough to melt anything it touches.
But correspondingly, the Saturn alloy will become brittle at this time and lose its super wear-resistant properties.
This property of Saturn alloy makes it a very good conductor of heat, and an extremely dangerous weapon when heated - but this property becomes less so when too much plasma explodes on it.
The scorching jets tried their best to blast through the armor, but when enough heat accumulated in the Saturn alloy, the tough armor quickly became fragile.
The plasma grenades weakened the shell's toughness, while the high-explosive grenades shattered some of the fragile shell. The machine's shell was shattered away layer by layer.
Inside the machine, the power source overheated, causing it to shut down. The machine's internal power source and moving structure could not withstand the high temperature of the outer shell, and it gradually became difficult to move.
The laser sprayed by the weapon in AAT's hand completely cut off the possibility of fighting for this machine that was overwhelmed by the plasma explosion.
The burning legs and feet were completely powerless to withstand the direct attack of the laser weapons. Several humanoids repeatedly pulled the trigger on the vulnerable legs and feet. The high-explosive grenades exploded in the leg joints.
The crimson lasers and high-explosive grenades directly shattered and broke several of the mechanical scorpion's legs that could not bear the heavy load.
The huge mechanical scorpion immediately broke down and needed to be repaired before it could continue moving.
"No, no, no, no! This isn't the fight I was expecting!" Mobius' voice faltered due to excessive excitement. But Sun Yang and his humanoids wouldn't respond to his expectations.
"Saturn alloy is afraid of being too hot. It will be useless if it burns red hot. It's really a fantasy to use this thing as armor. Isn't it better to use ordinary steel plates or other alloys?" Sun Yang shook his head. He knew very well the weaknesses of Saturn alloy.
