Tomorrow's Ark, the journey of hardcore and ruthless people

At some point in the snow, a sparse line of skirmishers appeared, surrounding the crew on the ground.The armored vehicle rushed straight towards the crowd and stopped not far away.The crew watched with fear as the well-equipped Tribunal soldiers poured out of the car, and the well-prepared food in the cooking team nourished their robust physique and ruddy complexion.

The next performance of the Ursus people made the commanders and fighters of the partisan army embarrassed: a small group of Ursus fleet officers and soldiers came from the crowd, forming a team, taking small steps, the leading commander was strolling, The right hand holds a small white flag hanging on a bamboo pole like a parasol.

The grey-haired lieutenant general solemnly even raised the white flag on his hand: "Gentlemen, what we are going to do is just as you can see. We have decided to accept the principles of military honor and tradition." Protect."

Soldiers of an infantry platoon held automatic guns, fearing the cold wind, forming a guard of honor on both sides of Kirilenko who was carrying a white flag.The young Tribal Army soldier, who was almost indistinguishable from ordinary soldiers in clothing, saluted Kirilenko: "Mr. Soldiers can get food and medical treatment."

Kirilenko looked at the other party implicitly: "Sir, it is something for you to be proud of an army with a long history laying down its flag in front of its new rival. So, why don't you send troops based on the principle of equal treatment? How about a person of the same rank as me?"

The other party listened with a diplomatic smile all the time, and then replied: "In other words, you think that our senior cadres need to come to accept the surrender? According to this statement, we have not even reached a ceasefire, and the two sides are still at war. state."

Kirilenko looked at the machine gun not far away and shuddered. He clearly realized that the loser was not qualified to find fault. He returned the favor with his good right hand - his left hand was injured when he lowered the cable, and whispered: "And No, you fought brilliantly, and Fleet Admiral Kirilenko is your prisoner."

This destined to be unfair artillery show finally came to an end.The Ursus Empire once again ushered in a...victorious expedition.

Chapter 1 "Sons of the Tribunes"

For the Northwest Tundra, orphans are a common phenomenon.

natural disaster, man-made disaster;

severe cold, hunger;

Labor and taxes.

In the countryside on the outskirts of St Junburg, the capital of the Ursus Empire, serfs there lived an average of 35 years.In the northwestern tundra, there are no conditions to conduct such social surveys.

In order to accommodate the unsupported children, the Reintegration Movement established orphanages and military cadets.The juvenile military academy is given priority to the placement and education of the sons and daughters of soldiers, guerrillas, civil servants and collective farm workers who died in the line of duty.Ino and Sasha are one of the few exceptions - not because they were personally adopted by Comrade General Political Commissar, but because these two little guys have extraordinary talent for Originium skills and serious mental health issues. Hidden danger. "Lack of love" is a terrible thing for teenagers and children in the growing period, and it will have a long-term impact on their mental health.

One of these two can transform a person's body with origin stone skills, and the other is handy with a magic crossbow.A person who suffered from domestic violence and became an infected person suddenly raised his whole family, and another person turned himself into an infected person to wander with the former in order to protect this friend.

If his Origin Stone skills are used well, he can effectively treat diseases and save people; if he is not used well...

That would also make for huge numbers of robust walking dead.

Command was deeply concerned about the mental health of the two little bastards and highly regarded their potential for destructiveness.But he was busy with official duties, so he really couldn't play the role of an adoptive father.Under his arrangement, the two naughty children ended up in a juvenile military academy and a hospital. Due to their malnutrition since childhood and their long-term wandering life, the physical conditions of the two children did not support them staying there all day. in school.

So after all the calculations, they stayed the longest. Instead, it was the First Military Hospital in the Northwest Tundra Base Area jointly run by the 113th Division of the People's Federation of Foreign Affairs Corps and the Taila People's Defense Army.The military doctors and nurses there took on the task of looking after them.After all, in the entire northwest tundra, they are the only ones who can provide medical services beyond outpatient clinics.

In the memory of the two little guys, the most pictures are either jumping up and down in front of the tall oil painting of Bethune's surgery in the hospital foyer, with the hemostatic cotton just finished dripping on their hands, and always holding a lot of sundries beside them The military nurse exhorted them loudly; or sneaked to play in the outpatient room of the military doctor they were most familiar with, the old man from the People's Federation had gray hair, and a turquoise military uniform under a loose white coat , when they are not busy, they will teach these two little guys to read and read newspapers, so they always know more words than most children of the same age-most of the children on the northwest tundra are illiterate.

The dental office was the least frequent place they visited. Firstly, Yinuo had extracted teeth there, and secondly, every time the military doctor saw them, he would scare them with pliers.Even if the two children are actually not too young...

They have also seen the style of this army.

It is lively on weekdays.The veteran nurses from the People's Federation and the new nurses recruited from the northwest tundra are always chatting and laughing in their free time, while rubbing the pills for clearing away heat and eliminating food.After the pills were ready, they were laid out row by row on the mat to dry. At that time, the hallway exuded the fragrance of hawthorn, mint and many kinds of unknown medicines, which made the two of them look over and over again; I scraped together [-] cents to buy two, and my face was wrinkled into buns because of the pain.

Sometimes serious.When distributing vaccines and welcoming the wounded on the battlefield, the whole building is always busy and short and powerful communication.Busy but not chaotic, fast and orderly.Although almost the whole hospital is filled with the smell of blood and alcohol.

In short, during the years in that hospital, the two children seemed to be the children of this army.They were hospitalized due to Originium disease and weak constitution, but when they left, they brought the diagnoses and suggestions from each department.They ranged from diet plans to exercise assignments for which they weren't charged a dime, and even the big janitor dog wagged his tail at the two of them.

During the most vulnerable years of their lives, the two children were cared for far more than they would have otherwise.Under the protection of the red flag fluttering high at the gate of the courtyard, Eno and Sasha finally overcame the dangers at the age of 14 and grew up healthily to this day. Zhengtai is a sophomore in transition.

The light-haired boy of Sakota and Ribery mixed race turned his head to look at the hospital for the last time, and when he turned around, his brisk voice could not be concealed: "Hey, Sasha... oh, 'Faust', yes smoke?"

The blue-haired Phaedia boy squinted his dark green eyes: "Ino...Mephisto, how many smokers are there in the youth league?"

——Integrationist Youth League, the advanced youth group organization led by the integration movement, is the assistant and reserve army of the integration movement.

Putting aside these official terms, this is the same as the Soviet-style Komsomol, a social organization used by the regime to organize its own young citizens, permeating all aspects of society.For example, it provides social labor education and political concept education for young people in addition to school education, and provides society with comprehensive development of high-quality citizens.For example, this kind of organization with a strong militarization component has a close relationship with national defense.In peacetime, such paramilitary organizations can send high-quality reservists to the army.In wartime, it will also be an important backbone of the militia.

It is conceivable that most of the organization activities of the members of the Youth League are military training of high or low level. In addition to going to the farmers in the villages and towns to help wave pitchforks, most of the time they have small-caliber rifles to shoot and throw "Activities" like grenades.Active participants and outstanding performers of the event will have the opportunity to visit the barracks, get the honor of shooting live ammunition with automatic rifles, and can take away a shell casing as a souvenir.Members who collect all three bullet casings can get a special gift - the whole youth regiment shooter badge.

The breeze blew, causing the bullet casing ornaments on the two of them to sway slightly; beside the whole youth league badge with a red flag as the main body, both of them wore the shooter badge.

The two outstanding graduates of the Warlock Cadet Training Class of the Junior Military Academy finally looked back at the hospital and walked towards the army green off-road vehicle parked outside the door.

Commander and Tallulah both leaned on the car and looked at the two teenagers calmly.

For a long time, Command carried Sasha, whose face was full of black lines, and Tallulah held the hand of Enoch, who was gloating about his misfortune.Sasha and Command were bickering, and Tallulah, who was smiling, followed leisurely, keeping a distance of three steps, and at the same time, she pressed hard on the cheerful and gloating Ino - this kind of scenery is in the Junior Military Academy, It has been staged numerous times outside headquarters and hospitals.Everyone who sees it has to sigh:

"What a harmonious family!"

Even Alina once solemnly "mourned" and said: "My good friend who got married is gone forever!"

Just to put it bluntly, except that Comand signed the guardian agreement with Sasha, and Tallulah signed Eno, there is no legal relationship between the four.

It has been almost a year since the victory in Kursk. The two little bastards have also officially graduated from the three-year youth military academy, and the two of them also successfully resigned at the Integrated Sports Congress not long ago.

Command said: "I have fulfilled my responsibilities here. Now that there are successors to the cause of the party and the country, I feel very relaxed and happy. The organization has already studied and decided that I need to be transferred from the integration movement to other aspects of work. I can only Choose to respond to the call from your superiors.”

Tallulah said: "I really can't do it, thank you."

So they officially broke away from the leadership center of the growing integration movement and served in the Executive Committee of the People's Council and the Military People's Council.And Ulyanov, with the code name "Ленин", was officially elected as the secretary of the Supreme People's Committee of the integration movement after the implementation of the new organizational reform plan at the meeting, saying: "Although a person does not seek his position, he still wants to benefit the country. As for his own responsibility, if everyone expects it, the only way to benefit the country is to come to power, and he can only take responsibility and completely abandon his selfishness."

As the four of them got into the off-road vehicle, Commander in the driver's seat said, "Our next task is to intervene in the Kazdaele Civil War in the name of the 'Atlas' Group."

Tallulah handed out a business card from the passenger seat.The two teenagers watched in amazement as the pattern of red triangles embedded with silver edges on a pitch-black background began to change. After the smooth and wonderful animation, the red and white artistic fonts of "ATALS" flashed, and the name "Commander" and his Position:

"Director of the Atlas Group Board of Directors, and regional manager of Kazdale..."

"For the company organization, it may be a bit nonsense for the directors of the decision-making department to also serve as the executive department." The old god Comand said, "But this is just the 'Cazdale Column' jointly formed by the 113th Division and the Integration Movement. Sheeping."

Faust looked at the business card carefully: "What about the actual identity?"

"Secretary of the Executive Committee of the Kazdaele Column, political commissar of the Kazdaele Column. By the way, Bodjokasti is the commander of the column."

"This is really messy." Mephistopheles rubbed his temples, "What is the relationship between the Integrated Movement, the 113th Division and Atlas? They are each other's internal and external, and it is true that they are hiding their identities, but always I feel like the situation is not that simple.”

"Atlas' board of directors is the joint meeting of the 113th Division and the Integrated Movement. You just need to understand this." Comand turned around after setting the automatic driving route, "But you two boys, voluntarily apply to go directly to the front line. Yes Ready?"

Mephisto whistled: "We are all over the age of seventeen. According to the law, we have the right to join the army on our own without a guardian... Aww!"

Faust knocked on the oily Mephisto, and said seriously: "There is nothing to say, without you, without the integration movement, we would have died on the snowfield long ago. Now it's time to help you."

Tallulah frowned and smiled, her smile so bright that it was a little suspicious, and her cold breath leaked into the air.Looking at the friendly Miss Atrias, cold sweat broke out on the foreheads of the two little boys.

Comand shook his head helplessly, and was immediately watched by Tallulah with the same sharp eyes—it has to be said that motherhood is really a magical thing.Tallulah Yatrias didn't even go through any legal procedures and social ceremonies about marriage, and she never tried sex, but she naturally brought in the role of "mother" in the relationship between the four of them.

Tallulah hoped fervently that the two children would not have to be involved in a violent struggle.But their superior Originium skills made such a thing impossible.Then it's better to take a step back and let them stay where they can.

Those emotional fluctuations that should have no relationship with the soldiers and are invisible in the revolution and work-expectation, helplessness, emotion, etc., make the already beautiful girl show a mature charm.

The two little beeps stared seriously at the adoptive mother's face in the rearview mirror of the off-road vehicle, and then looked at the adoptive father on the other side in unison.

"I have a question..." Faust muttered, hesitating.

Mephisto jumped up from the gap between the driver's seat and the co-pilot's seat, and stood between the two: "When will you get married?"

Commander: ...

Tallulah: ...

Mephistopheles looked around with a smile: "Why aren't you married yet?"

How should I put it... this matter is really hard to describe.

Tallulah's situation is too special.Whether it's the three declarations gathered in one body, the powerful and constantly developing Originium skills, or being the harassment target of the old Beeden evil god, Black Snake, all give the 113th division a reason to pay attention to her.

Talula resigned with a little self-deprecation and left the core position of the Central Executive Committee of the Integration Movement, and at the same time applied to the 113th Division to accept herself as a monster.The debate about what to do with her spread throughout the 113th Division's decision-making hierarchy.After careful and rigorous demonstrations, the commander of the 113th Division finally personally decided: Tallulah Yatrias will become the first Human Federation citizen and soldier from the planet Terra.

As the "Spirit Translator Team" of the 113th Division, composed of psykers and scientists, the "subspace", "energy plane" or "psionic realm" of the universe - different names for the same thing - unfolds Research, everyone feels that the water in this universe is very deep.The test results proved that psionic energy and Originium skills overlap, but are different in essence.The essence of Originium technology is to manipulate "universal nanomachines", and psychic remote control is the most important way to control this kind of machinery.In fact, the Terrayans are more or less psychic and warp sensitive.

For the Human League, which directly inherited No. 40, a millennium-old human empire, things will not be simple once psychic energy is involved. This will involve too many dangers and taboos.

However, in the high-secret research report that is only open to decision-makers, the translators used a concise and clear sentence to describe the subspace environment of this universe:

It's a puddle, the sea is dry.

The warp energies of this universe respond extremely weakly.What can this mean?

From a macro point of view, the research of the spiritual translators shows that the subspace of this universe has changed from active to this in a very short period of time.This represents a huge mutation that has swept across the entire universe; for the matter in front of it, the subspace environment of this universe cannot support the use of the "subspace engine" or the "psychic leap engine".

Among the super-light travel technologies mastered by the People's Federation so far, they either rely on the "webway" built by other civilizations-this universe has not found such a thing; When the gadget is running, it will cause extreme nausea, dizziness and positioning disorders to the human crew, and even have an overload that is too large for humans.Those mechanical races can bear it, but humans can't.Before the People's Federation thoroughly understands this technology, non-inertial engine ships can only be used to transport cargo, reconnaissance and communication—such as unmanned superlight reconnaissance ships, unmanned superlight warships, star forts, and unmanned superlight supply ships.

Now the people's union's super-light speed personnel transportation can only be done through the subspace engine.However, now that "the curtain of reality is so thick", the effective projection range of the 113th Division's power is limited to this planetary system.

And the good news is also great: such a subspace environment is impossible for terrifying psionic creatures like the four evil gods of chaos to survive.Based on this reality, the scientific research department of the 113th division stated that it is hard to say how powerful the psychic-based conscious bodies in "this land" are now.It's just that there are no examples, and no conclusion can be drawn on this matter.

But then again, Comrade Tallulah is always entangled by a certain "psychic virtual realm consciousness"...

As a result, she enjoys the treatment of a space warrior think tank - her own exclusive arsenal, library and training courses, and of course "enjoys" the exclusive space soldier political combat sergeant and "psychic insulator" untouchables. The 113th Division began to plan with great interest to use her to lure Kosiche into the bait.

This girl, who could bring countless dangers and opportunities, was closely watched at all times.As a special being equivalent to a powerful psyker, the act of "getting married" to seek a long-term intimate personal relationship, no matter what the considerations are - even for the personal safety of both parties, it will not be possible for a long time. will not be allowed to be considered.

It is obviously not easy to tell the ins and outs of this complicated matter to the two little beeps, and it made Tallulah's mood suddenly gloomy.She expressionlessly pressed "start" on the control panel of the off-road vehicle, and the off-road vehicle immediately began to gallop along the predetermined route.

Caught off guard, Mephisto began to howl and howl.

indestructible

people.

People are everywhere.

Lots and lots of people.

It's time for the day shift to end.Although the sky at high latitudes has only dimmed, the city is already brightly lit, and every major road is illuminated by lights.

As the first mobile city under the control of the 113th Division and the integration movement was officially put into use, the villages and towns on the snowfield began to be relocated to the mobile city as a whole, leaving only some special settlements, garrisons, mining engineering and other units.Most of the population and various important facilities have been relocated to mobile cities as a whole, and people are getting used to life here.

The roads in residential areas are not busy. Except for logistics transportation, municipal engineering, public affairs and military police travel, the residents here basically do not have private cars. They rely on the developed elevated and underground rail transit and public transport vehicles to move around the city. .

At the gate of the residential community complex, there was a bustling crowd of people getting off work.The inside and outside of the community became lively, with people coming and going, the sound of cooking came from the windows of every kitchen, and the aroma of various meals wafted out; the public unmanned restaurants on the street and residents' private restaurants also began to crowd into crowds.

Residential communities have community activity centers with their own small squares, and large and medium-sized citizen squares are also distributed in each block of the city.There are people walking, shopping, square dancing, and all kinds of entertainment.

The news from the front was, as always, the unemotional numbers and briefings.The scale of the war was relatively limited, and people neither received large-scale notifications of the death of their loved ones, nor did they bear the heavy taxation of the war.Therefore, the current propaganda policy of the base government is to downplay it—people have personal hatred for the Ursus Empire, but have not suffered from the general war, which can easily lead to war fanaticism.The news that Ursus had sent five new battleships only occupied a small piece of tofu in the media from newspapers to the Internet.

Tallulah had just finished the interview and was sitting in a small lounge in the exclusive office building of the 113th Division of the People's League's Extraterrestrial Corps in Hongqi City. She looked at the scene outside and felt unprecedented happiness in her heart. feel.

how nice...

In contrast, she doesn't care about her own interview results at all.

Tallulah insisted on resigning from the leadership position of the integration movement and starting from scratch with the 113th Division.In the circles that knew the news, she caused quite a shock.There are many people who regret it, and there are also many people who think that "the magnet that attracted the black snake is finally gone."On a darker note, after Commander and Tallulah both left, there would of course be a vacancy in the leadership core of the integration movement, and there were quite a few people who were eager to try.

Tallulah didn't care about the chatter, she was just preparing for the exam of the 113th Division of the Human League Extraterrestrial Corps.If she cared about treatment, status and power, she would not choose to be filial to Cosiche's loving father and daughter.At the beginning, the entanglement of the black snake made Tallulah a little bit of self-abandonment, but after thinking about it again, if there is any organization on "this land" whose goal is closest to the future she wants, it is the integration movement and the 113th division.

The old comrades have mixed feelings about her choice, such as the Patriots——

"It's also a good choice."

Wearing a huge deer head and wearing a mask, Bozhuo Kasti, who is considered eye-catching in the facilities of the Extraterrestrial Corps of the People's Federation, has only recently been ignored by everyone.Now he is sitting opposite Tallulah, chatting with her calmly: "You know what? Back then, when the General Political Commissar recruited me, in addition to the show of force and the temptation of profit, he also used aggressive methods."
