Jack belongs to the Antarctic Group, a multinational group that has suddenly become active in recent years.
But these are just appearances. Behind the Antarctic Group is an extremely mysterious research institute, with its headquarters in Antarctica. Some people say that they are a secret shelter built by the United States before the catastrophe, while others say that they were once a branch of the academy, but eventually chose to go their separate ways due to disagreements. There are many mysterious forces like this in the wasteland plane, because even today, there are still hundreds of shelters that have not been opened, not to mention some secret shelters built by various countries.
People don’t know where they are, or even if the people in the shelters are still alive. A new shelter is opened almost every ten years or so.
Of course, if these humans who survived before the catastrophe were not careful enough, they would likely be discovered by looters in the wilderness and have their entire shelter looted. Dozens of shelters were destroyed in this way.
The Antarctic Group has become very popular in the past two years because they claim that they can cure madness.
Of course, the treatment they adopted was not conventional drug treatment, but the implantation of a chip called 'Anles', which could keep the recipient in a good mood and help control emotions when necessary.
This kind of treatment method makes all parties quite wary, because they are worried that their minds will be controlled by the other party after the chip is implanted.
However, they are the only company that can treat madness, so the Antarctic Group has expanded its influence to many gathering places in recent years. Some people who are obviously tortured and infected by madness finally put their hopes on the implanted chips of the Antarctic Group. However, the business of the Antarctic Group is not limited to this. They also master advanced bionic technology and are currently providing a chip implant service called "Personal Assisted Terminal".
The personal assistant terminal is a powerful micro-biochip. After being implanted in the human brain, it can connect to the retina. After a certain bionic transformation, it can have the functions of assisting learning, combat shooting, retrieving data, monitoring body status, etc. Depending on the number of auxiliary functions, the price of the personal assistant terminal is completely different. Some are so expensive that ordinary people can't imagine it at all. According to the Antarctic Group itself, their research institute had already started this research before the disaster.
Initial experiments were conducted on pigs, and human implant research began after the Cataclysm.
Polaris also cooperates with the Antarctic Group. The other party's technology is quite advanced. Some auxiliary terminals can be loaded on exoskeleton power armor, which can effectively improve the combat capabilities of the soldiers.
Jack is the head of the Antarctic Group at Polaris.
After seeing Su Ying, he obviously wanted to come over and say hello, but before he took two steps, he was stopped by the fully armed guards.
"The conference room is over here." The captain of the guards was a middle-aged man with a shallow scar on his chin. He looked tough and cold. He stared at the other's handsome face with a slightly unhappy look and said bluntly, "No random activities are allowed in the inner city, otherwise we will arrest you for espionage."
A silver-white metal middle finger was almost poking Jack's handsome face. He was naturally very handsome, but this was for women. In the wasteland plane, it was absolutely impossible for one's values to be determined by one's appearance. Survival was the first priority for everyone, so his overly perfect face easily caused dissatisfaction among other men, especially when they found that the other party only appeared after the little princess of Polaris showed up, which made the guards in charge of the inner city quite rude to him.
Polaris' inner city defense system belongs to another system, and the team is not arranged by people from the city hall, but is directly dispatched by the Brotherhood to dispatch retired personnel from within.
The Brotherhood still keeps a top-secret secret file that only the highest level can access.
As for who this file belongs to, there is no need to guess.
As the only descendant of Su Ziyu, Su Ying has been secretly protected by the Brotherhood since early on.
"Relax."
"I just wanted to go over and say hello." Jack's expression was a little awkward. He raised his hand slightly, trying his best to maintain his dignity, then took a step back unwillingly.
The captain of the guards in front of him still had no change in expression, and just repeated: "The meeting room is over here."
"The people at the city hall are waiting for you."
After saying that, he simply raised his hand, and two armed guards escorted Jack and others to the meeting room.
After Jack and the others had gone far away, he spat, put his fingers on the earphones, and said in a deep voice: "This guy has bad intentions and has been trying to get close to Her Royal Highness the Princess."
"Leon, haven't they figured out the other party's background yet?"
Since the Antarctic Group changed the person in charge of the Polaris branch, the Brotherhood members have been quite wary of them, because this unbelievably handsome young man has tried to get close to Su Ying more than once. Of course, the Brotherhood members who secretly protect Su Ying did not give him a chance, because Su Ying's protection level in Polaris is much higher than Pasha's.
Jack soon entered the meeting room, welcomed by city hall officials.
Antarctic Group and Polaris have many cooperative projects, and some of the other party’s scientific and technological achievements are very attractive to Polaris.
After Jack entered the meeting room, the skinny man who had been standing beside him like a bodyguard stood outside the door. After a while, he quietly went to the bathroom, then placed a finger on his temple, and then sent out a secret mental message.
"The target is secretly protected by the Brotherhood. I cannot sneak up on him and implant a deep subconscious mind."
"Jack's altered appearance did not attract enough attention from the target."
"The target's mind is far beyond his peers."
"It is recommended to use other methods to approach the target."
The skinny man flushed the toilet and walked out of the bathroom as if nothing had happened. As he was leaving, he turned his head and looked back as if alert. Then he saw a tall female officer holding a document walking hurriedly. Then he looked away in confusion and stood outside the door of the conference room again. At the same time.
Su Ying also returned to her residence. Her room was simply furnished. It was more like a simple and plain military dormitory than a girl's boudoir.
After she picked up a pink hairpin and put her hair on top of her head, she turned on the computer in front of her and contacted an old friend of her mother through the internal network of Polaris. Recently, she encountered some doubts and still found nothing after searching the database of Polaris. She had no choice but to ask for help from an aunt who was working in the college.
"Aunt Zoe." The communication was quickly connected. Su Ying first greeted her politely, and then asked impatiently, "How is the information I asked you to look up?"
"Are there any results?"
A mature woman with some charm appeared on the computer screen. She was probably in her thirties, with her hair tied up at the back of her head and frameless glasses on her nose. When she raised her hand to push the frame of her glasses, her silver-white bionic right limb could be seen.
"Yes. I have found out." Zoe was flipping through the information on a crystal computer board in her hand. She looked up at Su Ying and asked curiously, "Why are you suddenly so interested in the secret research project before the disaster?"
“There are very few people who know these things now.”
"I did look through the college's early database and found some things. But a lot of the information at the time was kept on paper, and these are all I can find now."
"I'll send it to you later."
Su Ying did not answer the other party's question, but smiled sweetly and thanked: "Thank you for your help, Aunt Zoe."
"Send it to me now."
soon.
Some ancient information was sent to Su Ying's computer. She opened it and flipped through it impatiently. Then she frowned and looked at it with a serious expression.
——"Stargate Project."
Before the catastrophe.
A serious ideological confrontation broke out between the Soviet Union and the United States of America, the two poles of the world, which was the main reason for the outbreak of the catastrophe. At that time, both the Soviet Union and the United States had extremely powerful nuclear forces, and the two sides did not dare to act rashly for the time being. During this period called the Cold War, they had a very fierce comprehensive competition.
The Stargate Project was a project initiated by the U.S. Central Intelligence Agency at the time with the purpose of studying human special functions.
Su Ying quickly flipped through some of the information.
But then her expression turned a little disappointed, because the research projects before the disaster were quite low-end, and they were mainly focused on studying wall-walking, invisibility, mind remote sensing, telepathy, etc. As a natural psychic, Su Ying found that their research at the time was very backward, and some research even had no results at all.
At that time, both the United States and the Soviet Union conducted a lot of secret research on human superpowers. Unfortunately, for some unknown reason, neither side achieved any constructive results.
"So this is what the Stargate Project is about." Su Ying murmured as she put down the information.
Logically speaking, the Stargate Project before the disaster should have not produced any results, but why did that skinny man give him such a terrible feeling?
Soon, Su Ying opened the second copy of the information.
This information is even simpler.
It is only a small part of the record archive of the Stargate Project. During the research of the Stargate Project, the secret department of the United States of America selected a potential psychic soldier from the military and then conducted a secret experiment with him.
They had the soldier kill a goat with his mind.
This secret experiment was ultimately successful.
The goat was killed by the psychic soldier's mind, but the psychic soldier was also seriously injured in the end, so the entire experimental plan was shelved.
—"He who kills the sheep."
Su Ying's confusion was not completely resolved. Even when she encountered the legendary Death Claw, it only had one affix. But for that skinny man, the system actually gave him two affixes. There must be a deeper meaning behind this.
It couldn't be possible that the skinny man was the psychic soldier who killed the goat with his mind before the disaster?
