874 Mission and Choice's Ending
The deep red alarm in the space was still flashing. The Zergs on the surface of the planet were already gathering and would soon attack the human base.
In the sky above the planet, a large number of bugs were gathering, covering the sky.
However, Qin Yi could suddenly feel that something had changed after he finished speaking.
The human starships that were floating in space, the Skylark warriors that were ready to attack, the individuals behind the combat units…
They seemed to have changed in an instant!
In fact, Qin Yi himself did not know how effective these words would be. That was because in the face of life and death, human language would always be pale and weak.
Just like AEEIS said, human language was a very inefficient way of communication. AEEIS could give different and precise instructions to all soldiers in one second. Qin Yi would need a few hours to do the same thing.
However, the reason why Qin Yi threatened everyone with his identity as the commander and insisted on speaking to everyone in the Alliance Fleet was because he had understood a principle after tens of hours of pain and struggle.
Humans had their final weapon even in the face of the current desperate situation: Faith!
Ansebo Communications and Artificial Intelligence Technology allowed the human army to fight like the Zergs. The instructions of the AEEIS division commander were transmitted to every soldier on the battlefield through Ansebo Communications. The efficiency of tactical transmission was unprecedented.
Even AEEIS, after hundreds of millions of simulated battles and deep learning, could make commands that were not inferior to human commanders.
In the first encounter between humans and Zergs, the combined fleet suffered a crushing defeat. The Executive Committee of the Alliance Fleet decided to adopt the command mode of AEEIS+Ancebo communication. Only then did the situation improve.
However, that also caused humans to gradually forget what they had once held onto.
After establishing the command mode of AEEIS+Ansepo communication, under the analysis of AEEIS's large data, successive commanders had unknowingly developed in the direction of "micro-management masters''. They had thought of all ways to make every soldier and individual unit give up their feelings as human beings and fight like cold Zergs to increase their chances of winning.
However, as time went by, lies and deception became part of the commander. The distrust between the soldiers and the commander grew.
Humans tried to use Zergs' method to defeat the Zergs, but they could not succeed in the end. Therefore, in AEEIS's final deduction, humans had no chance of winning because the human army could not break through the "normal" that AEEIS had predicted.
On the other hand, Qin Yi recalled the decapitation operation he carried out when he was AS-371-45's team leader. When he looked back at the countless battles after he became a commander, he suddenly realized a principle that he already knew: Sometimes, belief was the most important thing!
There was no point in blindly emphasizing discipline and trying to cultivate soldiers into emotionless war machines. Historically, countries that relied on religion to command armies had not achieved much glory.
A truly powerful army, on the other hand, had an unwavering belief. This belief did not come from deception or brainwashing, but from the bottom of their hearts.
All of the soldiers of the Alliance Fleet had undergone strict training. Deep down, they knew very well that humanity was facing a life-and-death crisis. However, the long battle, the way AEEIS and the commanding officer did things had dulled their beliefs.
What Qin Yi had to do now was to awaken the faith in all the soldiers at the last moment!
Be it victory or defeat in this war, or whether humanity would survive or perish in the end, Qin Yi hoped that all the soldiers would be like him, knowing all the truth, betting everything on the fate of mankind, and charging to their deaths!
Qin Yi did not waste any more time. Instead, he skillfully used the control panel to give orders to all the human troops.
Qin Yi had already done this final battle many times in AEEIS's simulation training. The situation was different each time.
However, the overall attack launched by Zergs in the real world seemed to be more intense than any simulation training!
On the surface of the scarlet red planet, a swarm of insects surged out of the nest like a tide. The base that humans had left on the surface of the planet was like a small boat in a storm. It was drowned by the dense swarm of insects as if it could capsize at any time.
The results were minimal even though human bases on the surface and the starships in the sky were attacking the sea of insects at full force.
The human firepower in the air was like shooting stars in the dark sky. Soon, it was swallowed up by the swarm of insects.
The current situation had already exceeded Qin Yi's expectations; he had never faced such a difficult situation even in the most difficult mock battle.
AEEIS did not give any more suggestions. Instead, it silently conveyed every command by Qin Yi.
A starship was besieged by the Zergs and was on the verge of collapse.
For some reason, this starship seemed to be entering the city alone.
Qin Yi only took a glance and confirmed that this starship could not be saved. Thus, he considered giving orders to the starship to let all the soldiers on it board a small spacecraft or use the cloudfinch combat uniform to evacuate and meet up with another starship nearby.
While the Skylark combat uniform could only glide and could not fly, as long as it could glide away from the battlefield and land safely, there was still a chance of survival.
Before he gave this order, he saw a huge hole in the ground that was riddled with bullet holes. That seemed to be a nest of the Zergs.
He could see the densely packed eggs inside. It seemed like new Zergs were breaking out of their shells every minute. These new Zergs would immediately eat the shells of the Zergs after they were born. Then, they would rush to the battlefield and eat the limbs of their dead comrades and dead humans. They would continue to attack the human army according to the empress's orders.
A thought flashed across Qin Yi's mind.
If he could use this starship to destroy the eggs…
He subconsciously ordered the starship to attack the eggs but changed his mind after a few seconds.
Based on past experience, the starship would not be able to reach the nest. That would be meaningless.
Thus, Qin Yi changed his instructions and asked the soldiers on the starship to board a small spacecraft or use their Skylark combat uniform to evacuate and meet up with the nearby starship.
However, his orders were not carried out.
The starship had already given the order to retreat, but it still flew unsteadily towards the nest not far away!
Qin Yi could not help but shake his head slightly. He seemed to have foreseen the fate of this starship.
It would soon be besieged by the bugs and fall into the wilderness because no one could provide fire support and cover for it.
However, a large number of small spaceships and soldiers in Skylark combat uniform rushed out of the starship and began to counterattack the Zergs attacking the starship in the sky!
These warriors in Skylark combat uniforms could not fly. They could only glide in the air for a short period of time. However, they still tried their best to control the direction they were sliding in and rushed towards the densest place of the swarm.
They destroyed the mini reactor on their chests before the swarm of insects tore them apart!
Fireworks flashed in the sky. Under the cover of countless small spaceships and Skylark warriors, the starship suddenly accelerated and rushed towards the exposed Zerg nest!
A moment later, a terrifying explosion spread out from underground!
This Zerg Nest had a network that extended in all directions below. What was exposed on the ground was obviously only a small portion. After the starship charged into the ground, it artificially detonated all the weapons and fuel on it. Not only did it destroy all the exposed Zergs' eggs, but it also destroyed the Zergs deep in the nest.
Before the starship exploded, there was only one communication message.
"Humans will live forever!!!"
More communication messages flashed on the screen before Qin Yi recovered from his shock.
No one questioned Qin Yi's command, and no one issued a request to evacuate. These communication messages seemed to be a final farewell to Qin Yi, the commander, before they died.
The war between humans and Zergs was gradually reaching its climax on the vast battlefield.
Qin Yi could not help but show a gratified expression as he watched both sides fall into a stalemate instead of being crushed by the Zergs one-sidedly. Then, he began to move his own command ship and the surrounding corvettes away, just like in the simulation practice, preparing to meet his final fate.
To him, no matter what the outcome was, he could finally not bear the heavy fate and die.
However, the moment he completed his deployment, Qin Yi suddenly felt that his lips were a little wet. A bloody smell rushed into his mind.
He subconsciously wiped his hands and saw a smear of red blood. At the same time, his vision turned black and the world spun!
Qin Yi did not want to fall. The battle was still going on intensely. As the commander, he had to continue commanding the battle.
However, his body and spirit were overwhelmed by the long and high-intensity thinking. He could no longer hold on after commanding the battle for a long time.
…
Qin Yi seemed to be seeing some images in the dark.
At first, the images were blurry and unclear, but they slowly became clear.
He felt like he was in a huge spider web. He could not move, but his spirit extended indefinitely into the distance in the darkness. The images in his mind gradually became images that he could see clearly.
He saw the Zergs' nest underground, and the Zergs were busing. From time to time, terrifying explosions would come from above their heads, blasting these Zergs into sticky liquid and broken limbs.
He saw the Zergs flying in the sky fearlessly towards the human starships in the sky. They were quickly wiped out by the powerful firepower, but more Zergs continued to charge forward.
Qin Yi realized that this seemed to be a battlefield.
What surprised him even more was that what he saw now seemed to be the perspective of the Zergs!
Qin Yi even had a very special feeling. The overwhelming swarm of insects was like his hands and feet, moving completely according to his own will. However, these "hands and feet" had no feeling, they would not hurt, and they could be infinitely restored.
Qin Yi tried his best to trace the source of this consciousness but found nothing.
Suddenly, he felt a special emotion that came out of nowhere. A sense of sorrow gradually rose from the bottom of his heart and quickly spread.
At that moment, other images appeared in his mind.
He saw that this red planet was originally a desolate and lifeless planet.
The Zergs drifting in the universe came to this planet and began to multiply on it. They built nests underground and gradually expanded to the surroundings with this planet as their base.
However, after some time, the human starship arrived on this planet. The moment it saw the Zergs, the human starship immediately attacked but was quickly swallowed by the angry Zergs.
Humans formed an Alliance Fleet as if they were facing a formidable enemy. The huge fleet gathered not far from the planet and began an intense battle with the Zergs.
Qin Yi had already seen the next scene: Humanity had collapsed in front of the Zergs because of their command. It was difficult to organize an effective resistance.
Thus, the humans organized a counterattack through Ansebo Communications and AEEIS. Both sides began a long tug-of-war on this planet…
"Why am I seeing these images?"
Qin Yi felt like he was in a dream. He had a clear consciousness but could not move.
What was even stranger was that he subconsciously assumed the identity of the Zergs to think about problems. He was afraid of human starships and cannons, but he felt a sense of familiarity and pity for the large number of dead Zergs.
"Could it be… the consciousness of the nest?"
"Is this what the Zerg Queen wants me to see?"
"The scene of the Alliance Fleet being defeated made me subconsciously think that the Zergs invaded and the Alliance Fleet was forced to defend. However, the truth is that the alliance fleet took the initiative to attack?"
"Now that I think about it, the Zergs did not kill me immediately when I carried out a mission to assassinate the Zerg Empress. Instead, they brought me to the Zergs' nest…"
Qin Yi recalled his experience in the Zergs' nest. He and another surviving member were brought in front of the Queen. He did not know what the Queen of the Zergs did to another member. That member immediately let out a sharp scream and died in just two minutes.
Qin Yi received the same treatment. It was as if countless needles were piercing his brain, but he did not die. Instead, he persevered tenaciously…
Many details in Qin Yi's mind were strung together.
Obviously, the fact that he could see these images had something to do with the 'consciousness of the nest'. The fact that he could obtain the 'consciousness of the nest' and establish such a spiritual connection with the Queen of the Zergs was obviously related to his experience in the Zergs' nest.
The Zerg Queen did not talk to Qin Yi directly but Qin Yi could still clearly feel the Zerg Queen's consciousness.
Humans were the invaders…
The Zergs also suffered heavy losses under the attacks of humans…
If the humans and Zergs could stop fighting, neither side would suffer more losses…
This was especially so when Qin Yi stood on the Zergs' side and thought about problems. Such thinking became natural and logical.
Qin Yi wanted to try to communicate with the Zergs. Many thoughts flashed through his mind, but they could not enter the Zergs' nest network and were completely useless.
Obviously, it was an accident that he could feel the Zergs' network and did not die screaming on the spot. The human's life form was not enough to fully utilize the Zergs' consciousness. It could only be received and not transmitted.
At that moment, Qin Yi suddenly felt that all the images were quickly leaving him. His consciousness was recovering.
AEEIS's voice sounded in his ear. "Commander, I have injected you with nutrient serum. You can take over the battle at any time."
The image in front of Qin Yi's eyes gradually became clearer. The war between humans and Zergs was still going on. AEEIS should have taken over the battle and given him first aid.
Qin Yi tried hard to concentrate. He realized that he could still feel the connection between himself and the Zergs. He even felt a unique sense of familiarity with the Zergs.
On the battlefield, humans and Zergs were still in a deadlock.
The desperate battle of the human soldiers did not cause the human defense line to collapse. However, if they wanted to completely defeat the Zergs, they had to seek out and execute the Zerg Queen.
However, the Zerg Queen did not send a large number of Zergs to decapitate the commander of the humans this time. The pressure on the main battlefield was very huge. If this continued, no one could predict the final outcome of this war.
He suddenly had an idea.
Through the control panel, Qin Yi ordered all the troops in the intense battle to temporarily stop and retreat!
The human troops in the fierce battle did not immediately carry out this order because the war was nearing its climax. Everyone's eyes were red from killing. The humans and Zergs had reached a state of life and death.
Qin Yi quickly passed through the control panel and kept thinking about the orders for the troops to temporarily stop fighting and retreat!
Finally, his order worked. Some starships began to retreat. The Zergs did not chase after them even though they were prepared to be chased down. Instead, they stopped attacking.
Soon, this strange calmness spread across the vast battlefield. The human fleets and Zergs retreated and were in a deadlock on the current battlefront.
Even AEEIS fell silent. Neither it nor the human soldiers could explain why.
Humans and Zergs, two races that could not communicate at all, had actually stopped fighting so strangely?
Qin Yi's face was expressionless.
However, in the next second, he started operating the controls once again!
The main human forces were in a deadlock with the Zergs. The battlefield fell into silence.
However, the backup human troops in the starry sky immediately moved towards a hidden location on the back of the planet!
Qin Yi could feel the general deployment of the Zergs. The fleet formed by a few starships stopped after approaching the back of the planet. A large number of small spaceships were advancing rapidly towards the Zerg Queen!
The swarm of insects in front of them suddenly became restless a few minutes later!
Obviously, the Zerg Queen had only just discovered the ambush team!
Qin Yi was affected by the consciousness of the nest and felt an indescribable anger.
It was the anger of being cheated and betrayed.
However, there was no change in Qin Yi's expression. He still controlled the control panel and gave the command to attack all the troops!
The Zergs in the front became chaotic. The deadlock on the battlefield was broken in an instant. The Zergs kept retreating in front of the fierce attacks of the humans. Qin Yi immediately mobilized more troops to attack the Queen of the Zergs!
At the same time, Qin Yi began to mobilize different teams to attack the other places on the planet. He could vaguely sense that that was the nest of the second empress.
Once the Zerg Queen died, new empresses would be born randomly among these secondary empresses. However, this time, Qin Yi decided to eliminate them completely. He would definitely not allow any of them to continue existing.
The Zergs on the main battlefield seemed to have gone crazy. Despair and anger spread in the consciousness of the Zergs and quickly affected Qin Yi.
Countless Zergs gave up on the human army that was fighting intensely. They had no time to rush back to protect the Zerg Queen. Therefore, they rushed towards the command ship that Qin Yi was in without any care!
The Zergs that were drifting outside the planet also began to attack Qin Yi's command ship recklessly!
Qin Yi lied to the Zergs.
The previous Zerg Queen had planted the seed of the Zerg's consciousness in Qin Yi's mind through the spiritual link. This seed continued to take root and germinate, affecting Qin Yi's consciousness.
The new Zerg Queen allowed Qin Yi to see some scenes through the consciousness of the Zerg nest. She made Qin Yi subconsciously stand on the Zergs' side.
Qin Yi was indeed as the Queen of the Zergs had expected. He ordered all the human armies to temporarily stop attacking.
However, all of this was actually an illusion. On the surface, Qin Yi intended to stop the war with the Zergs. However, he had actually found the location of the Zerg Queen and all the secondary empresses through the consciousness of the Zergs. He had secretly deployed the human army to wipe them out in one fell swoop and completely destroy them!
Qin Yi was expressionless as he watched the crazy swarm of insects rush towards his command ship. He gave the command to retreat quickly to the command ship and the surrounding frigates.
There were two reasons why the human commander had to use himself as bait to execute the decapitation operation.
The human commanders had to command the battle with the Ansepo Communications at the front line.
The Zergs had the absolute advantage in terms of military strength. The human commander had to use himself as bait to reduce the pressure on the main battlefield. That way, the chances of the team carrying out the decapitation mission would be higher.
That was because humans did not know the exact location of the Zerg Queen. They could only send a large number of teams to search the various Zergs' nests. Their troops were scattered, and the chances of failure were very high. They had to use a certain method to disperse the Zergs' strength.
However, the situation was completely different now.
AEEIS could carry out all the commands with the Zerg Queen and all the secondary empresses' positions exposed. The decapitation operation could be successfully completed even if Qin Yi did not command it.
After knowing the position of the Zerg Queen, the high mobility and powerful firepower of the human starships would show their advantage. They would have the upper hand in the local battlefield.
This was already a sure win situation. There was no need for Qin Yi to foolishly sacrifice himself.
He could feel the violence and anger coming from the Insect Nest's consciousness. It was like a heavy hammer striking his temples, making his already unstable mental state worse.
However, Qin Yi did not waver.
"I'm a soldier."
"I have no reason to feel pity for another race that is a threat to mankind."
"Perhaps the initiator of this war was indeed the humans."
"But so what? I don't care."
"Humans can only obtain true peace when the Zergs are completely wiped out."
Qin Yi leaned against the chair at the control. While his mind was still filled with the Queen of the Zergs' madness and anger because of the Insect Nest's consciousness, he had calmed his mental state down.
That was because he knew that the humans won this war. His mission as the commander had been completed.
He would soon be able to retire gloriously and return to the blue planet to live a peaceful and happy life.
The voices and smiles of the members of the AS-371-45 team appeared in his mind again. Perhaps after he returned to the Blue Planet, he could personally visit the families of these team members, set up a tombstone for them, and offer sacrifices every year…
However, Qin Yi suddenly realized that something was wrong just as he was immersed in this chaotic and relieved mood.
AEEIS seemed to have been silent for a long time.
Qin Yi looked at the holographic image around him and suddenly realized that the command ship he was in was not retreating as he had instructed. Instead, it was advancing towards the violent swarm of insects in the distance!
On the other hand, the corvettes surrounding the command ship spewed out long exhaust flames and moved away from him!
"AEEIS!!!"
Qin Yi knocked on the control panel in shock and anger. However, the control panel seemed to have completely malfunctioned. It could no longer transmit any orders to the outside world.
On the other hand, Qin Yi could not control the command ship at all. He could only watch it approach the swarm of insects in the distance…
AEEIS's image appeared again. It's voice was as emotionless as before.
However, for some reason, AEEIS sounded exceptionally cold this time.
"Captain Qin Yi, you have perfectly completed the task of the Alliance Fleet's Executive Committee. Humans will achieve complete victory in the war against the Zergs. The Zerg Queen and the secondary empress will be completely eliminated. All the Zergs on this planet will be eliminated."
"Humans will build an interstellar colony on this planet. Many years later, this battlefield will become another home for humans."
"I have to admit that you humans are indeed the most talented in commanding. If not for your speech and the final plot, humans would not have been able to achieve such a complete victory."
"Humans cannot remain rational forever, but it is precisely because of this irrationality that humans' future holds unlimited possibilities."
"Captain Qin Yi, out of respect for you, I will tell you the truth before you sleep in this starry sky forever."
"The Supreme Executive Committee thinks that the best commander is a commander who sacrificed his life and died in battle against the Zergs."
"You have a good reputation in the Alliance Fleet. The Supreme Executive Committee doesn't want another person in their position. At the same time, you have the consciousness of a bug nest and your mental state is extremely unstable. No one knows when you will fall to the Zergs. Humans can no longer trust you."
"Your death will draw a perfect end to the war."
"Captain Qin Yi, your name will forever be remembered by mankind."
The lights in the entire space immediately disappeared after AEEIS finished speaking. The command ship dragged a long tail of flames and accelerated towards the dense swarm of insects in the distance!
The human starship broke through the dense swarm of bugs and began to bombard the Queen of the Zergs' nest on the other side of the planet!
The surface of the ground was torn apart and countless Zergs were reduced to ashes by the powerful firepower.
However, all the Zergs in the vicinity still gathered towards the nest without caring about anything else and carried out their final struggle under the will of the Zerg. Queen
The scene changed. Countless Zergs had already climbed onto Qin Yi's command ship in the universe.
The sharp teeth and claws of the Zergs tore the weakest part of the starship. Small Zergs swarmed in through the cracks, searching for the only human on the starship—Qin Yi's location.
Qin Yi was still sitting in front of the command desk like a statue in the darkness.
Suddenly, the wall opposite him was torn open, and a large number of Zerg warriors rushed in!
A huge Leviathan beast had stopped beside the command ship, as if it wanted to swallow the entire command ship.
The scene changed.
The human soldiers poured their anger at the Zergs when they received the news that their commander was dead!
All of a sudden, the Zergs on the surface stopped swarming towards the human soldiers and starships. Instead, they became like headless flies. Some low intelligence Zergs froze on the spot and did not move.
The humans' attacks were even more ferocious, sweeping away all the Zergs on the planet.
The secondary empresses in the other nests had also been wiped out in no time. These secondary empresses had not even had time to obtain the consciousness of the Zerg Empress from the Zerg nest network before they were blasted into pieces by the fierce artillery fire. Nothing remained.
There were many light spots on the back of the planet from afar. That was the huge explosion when the Zerg nest was completely destroyed by the human army.
The original nest became a huge pit after the explosion. The entire planet became riddled with holes.
On the other hand, human starships were soaring in the sky, as if they were showing off that they were the final victors.
In a space station further away.
Several officers of the Supreme Executive Committee of the Alliance Fleet were also watching the final battle.
"Why! He could have escaped!"
"Can anyone provide support?"
"It's no use. It's too late. From the images that we just saw, the command ship has been completely torn apart by the angry bugs. He should be…"
The officers looked pained and frustrated.
AEEIS's image appeared in the middle of the conference table. "Captain Qin Yi is determined to die. This is probably the home that he has already thought of."
"He, who has already been infected by the consciousness of the Zergs, should realize that it is very difficult for him to integrate into human society again. His former comrades are all dead. He is exhausted both physically and mentally. Dying in the battlefield is the best choice for him."
"What's more… obtaining the consciousness of the Zergs means that he will feel sympathy and empathy for the Zergs. He lied to the Zerg Queen and destroyed the entire race. I'm afraid that he also feels very guilty."
"Perhaps Captain Qin Yi made such a decision under such complicated emotions."
The senior officers of the executive committee sighed.
"What a pity. He is a talented commander. If he could continue to be trained, he would definitely be able to take over my position."
"Humans have lost a genius."
"What if we encounter a similar situation again? We can't be so lucky to find the next Qin Yi."
"Don't worry, the Zergs on that planet have been completely wiped out by us. Humans should not encounter such a troublesome enemy again."
"Forget it. The dead are gone. The war is over. There's no point in discussing this. Build a statue for him on the blue planet. Humans will remember him forever!"
The image of AEEIS silently disappeared amidst the sighs of the Supreme Executive Committee's officers.
The camera switched to the endless dark starry sky.
A huge Zerg Leviathan was floating aimlessly in space.
After losing the Zerg Queen, these behemoths had completely lost their intelligence. They could only drift aimlessly in the universe.
However, there was a huge incubation pool in the body of the Leviathan Beast.
The incubation pool was filled with disgusting, translucent mucus. Countless immature larvae were floating in the mucus, and they were also unconscious.
Qin Yi was also floating and sinking among the countless larvae. It was unknown if he was dead or alive.
However, he had not been completely corroded by the Zergs' mucus. Instead, he had grown some dark gray horns.
Suddenly, Qin Yi's eyes opened!
His thoughts seemed to be connected to a huge network, instantly extending into the distant universe!
After all the secondary queens in the vicinity died, Qin Yi became the only living thing with the consciousness of the nest.
All the larvae in the incubation pool woke up at this moment. These larvae that had yet to grow sharp claws and pincers surrounded Qin Yi like an extension of his consciousness.
The wandering Leviathan Beast suddenly opened its eyes and sped up towards the endless starry sky!
…
The script for 'Mission and Choice' ended there.
Lu Zhiyao finished reading the entire script. "Are we planning to shoot a sequel?"
The script of the war between humans and Zergs had come to an end with humanity's complete victory.
However, there was a lot of suspense in the end.
For example, it was not the Supreme Executive Committee's order that Qin Yi was given up. It was AEEIS's doing. AEEIS actually controlled the command of all the armies and lied to the Supreme Executive Committee that Qin Yi was the one who courted death.
Was this hinting that AEEIS, this artificial intelligence, had already awakened its own consciousness and was preparing to form an artificial intelligence army? In order to prevent an outstanding commander like Qin Yi from hindering his plan, he decisively cut the weeds and eliminated the roots?
However, not only was Qin Yi not dead, he had also become the new ruler of the Zergs because of the Zergs' consciousness. He had such a deep hatred for the Supreme Executive Committee of the Alliance Fleet Would he come back to take revenge?
These were the suspense left behind by the movie's plot. It looked like they could only wait for the next movie to be revealed.
Lu Zhiyao fell into a long silence.
"F*ck this cliffhanger ending!"
