"Are Sky Soldiers really that smart?"
Mo Ling did not fully trust what the girl had said.
He had been in this city for quite some time and had encountered more than a few Sky Soldiers. They had given him only one impression—
Stupid.
Mo Ling genuinely thought those Sky Soldiers were stupid. They did not fight intelligently, and their behavior was easy to predict.
They wandered within fixed areas, like programmed mobs in a game. Once their "aggro" was triggered, they would swarm their target. Those unactivated Sky Soldiers could only charge straight ahead one after another, their attacks simple and direct, with no sign of intelligence whatsoever.
Rather than living creatures, they were more like "automatic counterattack devices." Their actions were entirely passive; they would never take the initiative to do anything.
Ever since making his way from the outskirts of the city to Central Park, Mo Ling had taken out many Sky Soldiers. To him, they had been nothing more than living targets, not even worthy of being called "enemies."
However, the Sky Soldiers Mo Ling had encountered were all unactivated, unlike the ones that had ambushed the Yellow-Haired Girl. Most of those had been Activated Sky Soldiers.
"Could activating them greatly improve their intelligence as well?"
Did Sky Soldiers gain another behavioral mode after activation?
Did they go from passive patrols to actively luring prey into ambushes?
Mo Ling thought about it. It was not impossible.
If those machine units truly were the Sky Soldier Central Hub, then their "computing power" would certainly be concentrated on higher-level individuals. Lower-level individuals could be discarded as expendable bait, while activated high-level individuals became irreplaceable. Every ability was unique and could not be casually discarded or expended, so they had to be allocated sufficient computing power.
That could also
