The soldier proudly looked at another hill not far from him.
His three shots just now were fast and accurate. He did not give his opponent any leeway to make a move.
Although he had gained a certain advantage in his first move, he still attached a certain amount of importance to the robot in his heart.
No matter what, he had indeed lost just now. Losing to a robot had brought shame to the general.
Therefore, even if he had the advantage now, he would still go all out and fight for General O’Neil’s pride!
Fight!
This was a battle. In order to obtain 100% victory, the soldier had repeatedly warned himself in his heart to treat this as a real battle no matter what.
The soldier adjusted his breathing slightly and focused his gaze on the entire field.
The next moment, another pile of targets stood up.
The soldier subconsciously wanted to make a move but turned his wrist instead and forcefully controlled himself.
Because the targets that stood up this time were marked as criminals who had taken hostages as cover. The two targets were stacked together.
He could not fire as he liked because it was very likely that he would accidentally end up hurting the civilian.
After all, if he wanted to kill the robbers, he had to pass through the hostages first. Although it was not impossible with his skills, he could only kill one of them at a time.
The worst thing was that the targets would be able to counterattack before he got to all of them.
If he fired and did not get a good shot on the robber, it would be a terrible loss if he accidentally grazed or even shot the civilian instead.
The risk was too great, so he chose to let these targets pass.
The soldier was slightly relieved because, at this time, the robot on his right was still quietly in place, not firing a single shot.
He even suspected that this robot was very likely unable to identify the target and had already crashed in the midst of the chaos.
Since the other party did not fire, he wanted to make this toy unable to fire a single shot in this competition.
On the other side.
Seeing this scene, General O’Neil immediately felt relieved.
As expected, his test had not gone wrong.
As expected, this robot could not handle such a complicated situation.
In such a situation, even veterans who often carried out rescue operations would sometimes not be able to distinguish foe and ally clearly, and an accident would occur.
Of course, this usually meant civilian casualties.
After all, in many cases, once an enemy appeared, they would also likely have a gun in their hand. If you could not shoot first, then it was very likely that you would die.
As a top-notch special force soldier, under such circumstances, he absolutely could not hesitate. As long as he could complete the mission and save most of the hostages, it was acceptable to have some percentage of error.
Of course, proposing such a competition also had risks for his soldiers.
After all, this competition was meant to be a show for everyone and there was an important aspect that none of them could forget: the hostages’ lives.
Therefore, this was different from the first competition. Even if he were to let some criminals slip past, he could not attack the ‘hostages’.
Of course, he had already told the soldier to be alert about this earlier.
Although the two rounds of targets were just the beginning and there were no other moving targets, the soldiers carried out the mission very well.
They knew when to fire and when to not do so.
Everything was fine!
He would definitely win this match!
O’Neil turned his head to look at the silent robot on the other side of the hill. His strong desire to win instantly faded.
In the end, it was still just a machine.
He actually became serious about a match against a machine. It was really ridiculous.
Thinking of this, O’Neil couldn’t help but shake his head.
At this time, the group of researchers on the other side of the field looked a little surprised.
How could this be?
It wasn’t possible, right?
Based on the competition earlier, it was clear that their robot had the ability to perfectly mimic the actions of others.
Moreover, on the way to the hillside shooting range, they had already added the basic data information of the hillside shooting range into Robot No. 1’s database. Although they couldn’t have detailed data at every point… The robot definitely wouldn’t be unable to fire a single shot.
There might be something wrong with Robot No. 1.
If this continued, they would definitely lose this match.
To be honest, they could accept it if they really lost. After all, the soldiers under General O’Neil were definitely the best in the army.
If they lost in a normal match, they would be able to justify it as long as the loss was not too severe. That was why they had given the robot the information on the shooting range they were currently at.
Moreover, the two target rounds that the soldier had demonstrated were already enough for the robot to learn from his actions.
In the first round, Robot No. 1 had intended to test its target. However, it did not fire despite being ready to do so.
According to the manual speed of Robot No. 1’s gun, its delay was very low to the point that it was non-existent.
Therefore, in the first round of shooting, no matter how fast the general’s soldier moved or how fast he could knock down the two targets, Robot No. 1 would definitely be able to hit the last one.
The current targets were basically double targets that were protected by the hostages. While it was a difficult situation, it didn’t mean that shooting the robbers themselves was impossible.
Because the models of the two targets were different, there was actually some spare space for shooting.
However, the fact that the soldiers did not shoot in the second round surprised them. After all, according to the soldier’s abilities, they could definitely knock down the target without hurting the civilians.
From this action, it could be seen that the soldier was seeking stability and consciously avoiding the risk.
Because there were no enemies here, the soldier was being cautious. He avoided shooting any target that had civilians involved. This way, he could establish in their minds that as long as civilians appeared, they would not shoot.
However, Robot No. 1 did not need to think so much. He only needed to run according to the chip’s program. Moreover, according to Robot No. 1’s powerful computing ability, as long as the probability was more than 50%, he could shoot accurately.
Of the three overlapping targets, one of the robber’s shoulder and right hand were completely exposed, which meant they were easy targets with no margin of error.
However, Robot No. 1 was still waiting, which already showed the problem.
General O’Neil would definitely not take a fancy to problematic design research, let alone order it.
However, even if they wanted to solve the problem, they couldn’t because the whole project was led by Anderson. No one knew what was happening to Robot No. 1 except for him.
The researchers suddenly felt a little dejected. It seemed that this artificial intelligence wasn’t as simple as they had imagined.
They were still too anxious. It had only been less than an hour.
Thinking of this, everyone glanced at President Joseph and William, sighing in their hearts. Then, they turned to look at Anderson with a complicated look in their eyes.
In any case, they could only look at Anderson..
