#280 - Chapter 280 The Controlled Rat Rabbit
Zombie rats are impossible.
Because the attack happened in the morning, how could zombies be active during the day?
So, it must be real, living animals.
"According to the scouts' reports, these pikas are extremely numerous, stretching for kilometers, and they move very quickly. Under their attack, the Bayan Sumu resettlement area was breached in less than 10 minutes," Shen Tu Zheng Hao continued.
"Then what do you mean by these pikas cooperating with them?" Zong Zheng Yue asked.
"I brought a video recorded on-site, and everyone can watch it together," Shen Tu Zheng Hao said without explaining.
After watching the video, everyone understood what was going on.
The video file had already been copied to the projection equipment in advance and could be played directly.
The picture was taken from high in the sky, from a great distance, but it was still relatively clear.
From the picture, it can be seen that the land there is severely desertified, and the entire ground has a desolate, earthy-yellow color.
On this desertified land, there is a small town, and a circle of high earthen walls stands around the town.
Outside the north side of this city, a vast expanse of gray-black was constantly moving on the ground.
After they arrived outside the city, they quickly split into two teams, one on the left and one on the right, spreading along the city walls, quickly surrounding the entire small city.
Subsequently, a small team of about two to three thousand people, led by several jeeps, constantly approached the small city.
Closer and closer.
Then, a magical scene appeared.
The pikas actually retreated to both sides, creating a passage for this team.
"Huh?"
Seeing this, several councilors made soft sounds of surprise.
They all understood what Shen Tu Zheng Hao meant.
When the team reached the city, several people in the lead jeep got out of the car, looked at the sky, and shouted at the camera.
They saw the reconnaissance plane in the sky and seemed to be warning it.
Soon, one person took out a handheld rocket launcher and aimed it at the plane.
The picture quickly zoomed out and stopped there.
"This video was taken by the plane sent for reconnaissance this morning. At that time, the flight altitude was relatively low, and they had already been discovered. In order to prevent being shot down, it quickly evacuated," Shen Tu Zheng Hao explained.
The councilors nodded, indicating that they understood.
"There is definitely something wrong with these pikas," Zong Zheng Yue concluded.
"Old Zong, aren't you talking nonsense! Everyone can see that there is something wrong with this thing, the key is what is the problem?" Liu Fei Ying from the Military and Political Department laughed.
Zong Zheng Yue glanced at him and said nothing more.
"They seem like someone is controlling them," Jing Cheng from the Cultural Department said.
"I feel the same way," He Jing Hui from the Security Department also had the same view.
"How about this, Councilor Liu, give this video to you, and have the people from the Informationization Department analyze it and give a result as soon as possible," Bai Li Ji arranged.
The Informationization Department is a subordinate department of the Military and Political Department and is under the jurisdiction of Liu Fei Ying.
The councilors present were not professional in technology, and after discussing it, they could only engage in a war of words.
"Okay," Liu Fei Ying replied.
"Before the results come out, let's make a hypothesis first. If these pikas can be manipulated artificially, what is the worst-case scenario? Everyone, please speak up," Bai Li Ji said.
The hypothetical method is a common method in formulating decisions.
We cannot ideally assume that everything will develop in the direction we hope. If we want our side to be invincible, we must ensure that even in the worst-case scenario, we can have a stable response.
"That depends on the cost for them to achieve this. Ulan Country is a landlocked country, and its technological level has always been relatively backward. I think even if they can achieve this, the cost will probably not be low," He Jing Hui from the Security Department said.
"Actually, there is another possibility. I wonder if their method of controlling pikas is the same as our country's Red-Clad Sect's method of controlling zombies? What I mean is that they may not be achieving control over pikas based on technology, but on some mysterious factor. If this is the case, then there may be no cost," Lu Yuanhang from the Water Administration Department said.
"There is no need to worry about this. The method of controlling pikas can never be the same as the method of controlling zombies," Zong Zheng Yue said.
"Oh? It seems Councilor Zong knows some inside information?" Lu Yuanhang asked.
"I do know something. Two months ago, we captured three Red-Clad Sect Saints who participated in the zombie siege incident. Through interrogation, we learned some information from them. Among them, there was mention of some secrets about the Red-Clad Sect Saints using the Spirit Invocation Technique to control zombies," Zong Zheng Yue said.
"What? There is such a thing?" The councilors were shocked and whispered to each other.
From everyone's constant shaking of their heads, it can be seen that they did not know about this matter.
It's no wonder, the speaker at the time was a fake, and it is estimated that this information was submitted and then disappeared without a trace.
