Recalling the bizarre way Alsace had summoned this "Demon Sword," its advanced intelligence, and now its miraculous ability to devour things, even Rose's staunch atheist convictions began to waver.
Could some kind of "supernatural power" really exist in this world?
Meanwhile, Nie Yun, who had nearly conned the alien princess into believing anything he said, was doing his utmost to digest the technological data on the "Hunter" he had just acquired...
Zhou Dong and the other scientists had essentially deciphered several key technologies behind the Twin Stars' Bioweapon, the "Hound."
Aside from the Hound's genetic modifications and combat capabilities, there was another key technology: weapon control!
As Bioweapons under the Twin Stars' command, Hounds possessed a bat-like echolocation system in their brains. This system was not only astonishingly sensitive to moving targets, but could also receive specific external sound waves conveying simple commands. This was one of the ways the Twin Stars controlled their Hounds.
This control method was suitable for on-site command and worked on a principle similar to the ultrasonic whistles used to train dolphins.
However, sonic commands were easily intercepted, deciphered, and disrupted by the enemy. The Twin Stars had therefore developed a second control method: during the Hounds' cultivation, specific memory-reinforcement techniques directly implanted "basic preset commands" in their brains.
These basic preset commands included "do not attack Twin Stars personnel or their armed forces," "eliminate all non-friendly units in sight," and "identify hostile targets by specified characteristics."
With these basic commands as a foundation, even if the enemy cracked the first control method, they could at most cause some confusion in the Hounds' on-site command. They could never turn the Hounds against their masters.
And for Hounds, whose primary tactics were ambushes, chaotic melee, and mindless mass rushes, on-site command made little difference anyway.
Overall,
