Wasteland plane, North Star.
After more than ten years of development, Polaris has now become a big city with a population of hundreds of thousands.
After Su Ziyu left, Pasha made great efforts to integrate the resources around Polaris. With the secret support of the Brotherhood and the great reputation that Su Ziyu left in the underground world when he left, Polaris swallowed up a large number of nearby gathering points with almost no difficulty.
Today, there are twelve satellite cities near Polaris alone, with a total population of over one million, making it one of the leading powers in this area of North America.
In addition to some underground rumors, there are rumors that the North Star has been connected to the giant city in the East - Beidou, which makes the geographical location of the North Star even more special. There has been a rumor circulating in the Americas that a big country in the East has rebuilt a super city with a complete industrial system after paying the sacrifice of several generations.
However, the world is not peaceful recently, because a strange disease has begun to spread throughout the world.
About two years ago, a strange disease called "Mechanical Worm Disease" began to spread. It is a disease that targets modified humans. After suffering from this deformed disease, the neural tissue of the modified humans will have a rejection reaction with the bionic limbs. Mild cases will have regular pain, and severe cases may even cause direct paralysis. The transmission route of this virus has always been a mystery, and the way it is infected is also very strange. Some people are completely fine, while others suddenly get sick. There is a secret news that this is a man-made virus developed by a certain force, and the purpose is to target those who have undergone bionic transformation.
But this was just the beginning. Soon after the mechanical worm disease spread, a new kind of "madness" appeared.
Madness is more terrifying than mechanical worm disease because the sick people look normal on the surface, but they are rather cold and withdrawn and do not like to interact with others. However, once the disease breaks out, they will become mentally confused, extremely aggressive, and may even engage in self-mutilation and have a tendency to kill everything crazily.
If people infected with madness are stranded in the wilderness, they will quickly show signs of becoming zombies, so the number of zombies in the wild has gradually increased in the past two years.
Polaris was also greatly affected by these two waves of virus attacks.
Especially in recent times, the leader of Polaris, Pasha, has not appeared in more than a month. It is rumored that she has contracted a very serious mechanical worm disease and has even lost the ability to move independently.
If Pasha had not ruled Polaris for more than a decade, and if a certain legendary figure had not made the forces of various camps afraid to act rashly, Polaris would probably have been in chaos by now.
But even so, the situation in Polaris was not good at this time. The spread of madness made everyone here feel insecure. Some people, under the emotion of fear, have begun to turn to religious beliefs for self-comfort. The Mechanical Atomic God Cult grew and became stronger at this time. They claimed that after believing in the God of Machinery, they no longer had to fear radiation pollution and would not suffer from madness. Therefore, even though the major forces tried their best to suppress the Mechanical Atomic God Cult, many people secretly devoted themselves to religious beliefs.
boom!
A dull explosion sounded.
As flames rose, a group of mercenaries with tough looks were shooting at the Polaris guards with guns. The firepower of this group of people was extremely fierce. One of them had metal armor installed on his chest and was carrying a heavy firepower weapon.
The battle broke out too suddenly. The Polaris guards were unable to react in time and were completely suppressed by their firepower.
Fortunately, the residents of Polaris reacted very quickly. Some people who lived here immediately took out weapons from their homes and assisted the guards in fighting back against these mercenaries who had suddenly gone crazy.
"Sons of bitches! Kill them!"
"How dare you bomb my house!"
“Brothers!”
"Get your weapons! Bobby! Bring me my RPG!"
Pasha's gentle rule for more than a decade made the residents of Polaris extremely supportive of her. After discovering the enemy's attack, many residents who used to be scavengers directly took up their weapons and started fighting. Many of them were once wanderers outside, and some were even disabled. If Pasha had not taken them in, these people would probably have to wait for death in the wilderness. Pasha has taken in many scavengers with clean family backgrounds over the years, and she also paid for them to have bionic limbs installed. Some of these people were absorbed into the guard team, and the others became residents here, running some small shops to make a living.
The attack came too suddenly. In addition, the attack took place outside the North Star. The garrison was unable to react in time and the situation at the scene was very passive.
But at this moment, a cold female voice came from the garrison captain's communicator. It looked a little childish and said slowly: "Fire cover!"
"16th formation encircles the right side."
"Others cover the situation and evacuate."
The captain of the garrison beamed with joy upon hearing this, and then shouted, "Her Royal Highness the Princess has arrived! Brothers of the 16th formation, follow me!"
As soon as the words fell.
A silver-white figure flashed on the roof in the distance, and then an exoskeleton power armor that reflected a silver-white luster in the sun fell down. It unstrained the force the moment it landed, rolled over to avoid the incoming bullets, and then raised its hand and fired a shell, directly blowing an enemy in the distance into the sky.
This silver-white exoskeleton power armor possessed excellent flexibility. She hid behind the cover for a second or two, then suddenly ejected, shooting out a metal storm in mid-air. The next second, she saw enemies in the distance falling down in large numbers like wheat being harvested.
"No source of power."
"Those damn rats have sneaked in again."
The entire battle was over faster than expected. The soldier in the silver-white power armor was like a sharpshooter. An enemy fell with every shot. In just a few minutes, most of the enemies were killed. The remaining ones were so scared that they dared not show their heads. After throwing some smoke bombs and electromagnetic bombs, they immediately started to flee.
The silver-white power armor avoided the explosion range of the electromagnetic bomb. She activated the jet device under her feet and jumped onto the roof slowly. Then she took out a sniper rifle from her back and began to kill one by one in an orderly manner.
By the time the guards arrived, the remaining enemies were no longer a concern.
The battle was over quickly.
Sizzle.
The silver-white metal helmet was removed, revealing a delicate and pretty face that looked a little childish. Her facial features were extremely beautiful, and her face had the softness of an oriental person, but her eyes and nose were very three-dimensional, and one could tell at a glance that she was mixed-race. Her long black hair seemed to have been dyed, and a hint of gold could be seen at the roots of her hair. She didn't look very old, and from the looks of her, she was probably only fourteen or fifteen years old.
"Sakura."
"You acted on your own again!" a dull male voice came.
At this time, Polaris's support troops had arrived, all wearing exoskeleton powered armor. The leader had a shiny bald head and held a six-barreled Gatling heavy machine gun in his hand. There was a string of Buddhist beads hanging on his exoskeleton armor, which looked a bit out of place.
"Uncle Quit Masturbation." The girl called out playfully, turned around and tried to slip away, but was still caught up by the bald man.
Jiesexing's face looked much older than before. He was already in his thirties. There were many more wrinkles on his forehead and eyes, some scars on his jaw, and more bionic limbs. He waved to the other team members to clean up the battlefield, then caught up with the girl in front and advised earnestly: "It's too dangerous for you to do this."
"What if those people have some energy weapons? Silver Wing's external armor can't stop energy weapons."
"If something happens to you?"
"How am I going to explain this to your father? With the current situation on Polaris, you must understand that your safety is above all else!"
The girl turned back with a bitter face and said, "I know."
"I'll be careful next time." After saying that, the girl directly activated the jet device of the exoskeleton power armor, and disappeared from sight in an instant with a leap.
"Alas." Jie Se looked at the silver-white power armor disappearing from his sight, took out a cigar and lit it, then sighed and said, "With such a reckless personality, I'm really worried that something might happen to her."
"Don't worry, boss." A team member patted Jiese's shoulder and said, "Your Highness the Princess can even deal with the legendary Death Claws, so these little mice that sneaked in are no problem at all."
Although Pasha had always been a gentle ruler of Polaris, she was very strong in her external power, so she gradually got the nickname of "Queen". Naturally, as Pasha's daughter, Su Ying was gradually called "Princess Royal Highness", which was of course more of a joking name.
Jie Se frowned upon hearing this and said in a deep voice: "This is the second wave of attacks this month."
"There must be a mole in Polaris."
"Send someone to investigate immediately. We must dig three feet underground to find them."
"We must find out what their purpose is."
The situation in America has been quite turbulent recently. Not long ago, a war broke out between the divided academies in the south. In addition, a large number of weapons have recently been leaked through mysterious channels, and looting knights have begun to appear in the wilderness again.
"Understood. I'll go now." The team members saluted and left quickly.
at the same time.
On a rooftop several kilometers away, next to a tall building with an iceberg logo printed on it, three men were quietly observing the battle in the distance through some kind of equipment.
"The target is stronger than you think!"
"It looks like Jack's plan to save the damsel in distress has failed." The young man spoke with a hint of gloating.
Next to him was a bald man with an aged face. The skin from his neck to his head was a little red, like a half-cooked lobster. He glanced at the others with cold eyes and said in a deep voice, "Continue to implement the next plan."
"We must give Jack the opportunity to get close to his target."
"We must find a way to make the target fall in love with Jack. Only in this way can Jack be blessed by fate."
"The pagans have already begun to act."
"We need the favor of fate. We don't have much time left."
Hearing the bald man's words, the young man beside him shrugged and said, "Boss, do you really believe what that witch said?"
"Is that little girl the savior favored by fate?"
"All right."
"She does seem to have good luck, but even if she is the child of destiny."
"Let her fall in love with Jack? Can Jack take away the ability that fate has bestowed upon him?"
The bald man stared at the young man with cold eyes until the other party's eyes dodged and showed a hint of fear, then he slowly said: "Yes."
"If only she could truly love Jack."
"And then died in the final sacrificial ceremony..."
High wall.
The inner city of the Polaris military camp has never been demolished and has now become a closed fortress.
A silver-white figure descended, and the girl gently lifted her long black hair and tied it into a single ponytail, then sat down by the city wall, looking at the thick smoke that had not yet dissipated in the distance. About a few minutes later, a tall woman came over. She was wearing a neat military uniform and sat down next to the girl after a moment of silence.
"Mattie. How is mother?" the girl asked softly.
"I just injected the sedative." The thief girl who used to roam the streets has now become a capable female soldier. She gently sat down next to the girl, took her hand and placed it on her knee, and whispered, "She is in a very bad condition and has been having auditory hallucinations."
The girl's expression darkened upon hearing this. She hugged her knees and looked at her feet in silence.
"It's none of your business. You've done well enough." Mattie couldn't help but put her arms around the girl's shoulders and comforted her softly.
The girl was silent for a moment, then whispered, "If I could be stronger, as strong as my father..."
"Maybe mother wouldn't have to take risks, and wouldn't have ended up like this..."
Mattie hugged the girl in front of her with some distress. Just as she was about to speak to comfort her, she caught a glimpse of several figures from the corner of her vision. They immediately approached her ear and said, "That guy is here again."
The girl immediately put away the sadness on her face. She turned her head and looked not far away. Her sight passed over the handsome man walking in front of her and fell on another person two steps behind him.
Walking towards me was a very handsome young man, about 20 years old, with a tall figure, sharp eyebrows, bright eyes, a high nose bridge, fair skin, meticulously groomed golden hair, and a slightly upturned mouth that revealed a hint of cynicism. This was a very charming young man, especially his face, which was almost perfect from the perspective of ordinary people and completely in line with the aesthetics of all women. It was perfect as if it was carved out bit by bit with the most precise carving knife.
At this moment, he seemed to see the figure of the girl, and he couldn't help but look up and reveal a brilliant smile. Facing the sunlight, his dazzling white teeth like porcelain could be seen.
This is a very handsome and charming young man, so many women along the way were attracted by him.
However, the girl's attention was more focused on the thin and silent man behind the other person, because on him, the girl could see the special affixes marked by the system.
——"Phil [Stargate Project] [The Man Who Killed Sheep]!"
For the first time in all these years, the girl felt obvious psychic pressure from someone other than her father. The other person seemed to be a terrifying monster hidden under his skinny body.
