Xie Yuan and Anna followed Miller to Polis, the central station of the ring line, in such a light manner.
Although Xie Yuan's current focus is on settling the residents of the Novosibirsk subway station, he does not pay any attention to the Moscow subway station.
Although there are no big goals like Black Monster and D6 Station this year, there have been a lot of big turmoils.
For example, the Fourth Reich existed in name only because during an offensive operation against the Red Line, they used explosives to collapse the load-bearing walls and top floors without calculation. Then a huge amount of water on the ground rushed into the subway and was out of control, overwhelming all obstacles without any hindrance, flooding the entire three stations.
In the entire Three Central Stations, not even one-tenth of the survivors could be found after the flood—even the head of state and other senior officials of the Fourth Reich were missing.
If nothing else goes wrong, preparations for the new Fourth Reich should have already begun, but they will stop for a while.
Although it is sad that so many people died, the Fourth Reich's wanton bombing because of disrespect for knowledge is not worthy of sympathy.
When Xie Yuan heard the news, he really just wanted to laugh out loud.
As for the Red Line, a plague suddenly broke out at a major station on the Red Line. In this incident, two acquaintances appeared, the hunter and Lenia, the son of Red Line leader Mosven.
The result seems to be good. Although the price is not small, Lania has successfully solved the plague and accumulated a huge reputation, and the hunter uncle seems to be able to embrace the beauty.
In fact, if Miller is serious, it would be great to invite Hunter back to train new recruits - he is a tough guy, strong but not like himself who goes beyond the limit, and he is someone Miller can control.
More importantly, he doesn't have any other titles on his head, he is just a simple and pure warrior, and he will not have any troubles of this kind.
But Miller just didn't seem to think of him, or Hunter just wandered along the subway and never came back.
Before returning to Polis, Xie Yuan still had a long conversation with Miller, implicitly expressing Hansa's fear and desire for him.
So after returning to Polis, Xie Yuan and Anna became the combat instructors and shooting instructors of the Rangers in the name of consultants, but did not join the Rangers themselves.
This was actually a disguised attempt to stabilize the top management of the Hanseatic League, lest his joining would misunderstand that the Rangers had a desire to be independent.
What does this actually do?
In fact, there is nothing on the surface.
But as instructors, Xie Yuan and Anna can have rest days. He can take Anna to theoretically go anywhere to rest and play, without having to set out immediately as soon as he receives the mission.
This allowed him to prepare a little while resting.
Although this carjacking operation must be made to look like it was launched suddenly and hastily.
…
Rustling, rustling... Facing the rising sun, two figures, a man and a woman, were walking on the snow-covered streets of Moscow.
It was already half a month after Xie Yuan and Anna settled in Polis. After completing the first training mission conscientiously, Xie Yuan and Anna were as tired as dead pigs.
Physical fatigue is nothing, but mentally it feels very torturous - most of the support personnel sent by the Hanseatic people like to ask this and that, and most of the recruits who are going to come for training are unruly people, so it takes a lot of time. A lot of thought goes into tempering.
In the headquarters of Polis, there are fewer and fewer acquaintances, more and more strangers with ulterior motives, and Miller has also been dispatched - he and some former veterans were formed into a special force, working in a certain area of the Hanseatic League. Some key areas are on standby!
"We are on the ground now. Except for monsters, there are no strangers nearby. Can you tell me something?"
Anna, who was wearing an isolation suit, and Xie Yuan, who was wearing a mixed-match system, explored the road ahead while watching and listening in all directions, while chatting about one thing or another.
That is to say, she dared to walk so openly with Artyom again. Although Anna had never slackened in being vigilant about her surroundings, she had no sense of urgency in her heart.
Because as soon as Artyom came out, he had the power to cleanse the streets. Not only did all the beasts retreat, but he could even feel the movement within a kilometer radius.
It's very safe to walk with him.
"Then I'll just tell it like a story, and you can just listen to it like a story."
For Xie Yuan, explaining the evil deeds of the pre-war government to Anna was very difficult for him: it is actually difficult to talk about this kind of thing, because there is one more insider and one more risk.
However, Xie Yuan has decided to leave now, and then let Anna settle down before secretly attacking the pre-war government, so it doesn’t hurt to talk about it: "You have to know, from the beginning of the attack in Moscow to the complete closure of the subway, a total of 100 people survived There were more than 200,000 people, but now there are only about 40,000 to 50,000 left.”
"I know!" Anna said that this is a cliché. "A lot of deviant ideas, as well as bandits who became plundering because of lack of food, and finally developed into a fratricidal war, this made the subway suddenly So many people lost.
This is something everyone knows. "
"Then you must not know that the so-called Red Line, the Fourth Reich, Polis and the Hanseatic League are all secretly controlled by a system."
Xie Yuanyu burst out into a violent argument without surprising anyone.
"What?!" Anna said that she was really scared.
"Invisible Guardian, or Invisible Sentinel" Xie Yuan gave a name that Anna had heard of.
"I've heard of this name!" Anna also heard of the legend of the invisible guardian, "but that's just a legend."
"That's not true! The Invisible Guardians are indeed a thing, and Colonel Miller should know a little bit about it," Xie Yuan explained to Anna, "The so-called Invisible Guardians refer to some of the people who fled to the underground fortress of Metro Line 2. The old government before the war.”
"What?!"
"They were not completely dead back then. Those who were left to survive learned about all the three defense reserves deployed by the entire former alliance and Russia in Moscow. Therefore, according to legend, they are the so-called "GOD'S".
Since they were the ones dividing the bread and cans, it fit the story perfectly. "
"You...I...let me take a break." The sudden news made Anna out of breath. It took a long time to recover.
But just for a moment, Anna began to digest normally: "So the invisible guardian is real, then why do the Red Line, Hanseatic and Fourth Reich still appear?"
If the story of the invisible guardian is true, why is life on the subway such a hell?
But Xie Yuan did not answer the question directly, but replied: "Have you heard the whole invisible guardian story?"
Anna had indeed never heard of this, so Xie Yuan retold the fable to Anna that he heard from two people from the Fourth Reich in the "black station" at that time.
After hearing this story, Anna blinked: "So because the pre-war government lost its direct military force, they felt insecure and began to deliberately hide in the Line 2 subway?"
"That's my guess too. After all, there are too few "parties" willing to disclose it."
Anna did hit the nail on the head and told Xie Yuanyi’s initial guess, so he did not needlessly conceal other guesses that followed: “In order to better control the subway, they began to spread different new ideas at a faster pace, and at the same time allowed these new ideas to form Armed groups engage in separatist wars.
And they are still controlling the direction of the war in the middle - whoever has a greater advantage will use high-level undercover agents in the group to weaken the advantage of the stronger side; whichever side is on the verge of desperation, they will secretly reinforce the weak side with a large amount of resources in order to change the balance of the war. "
"This behavior is so disgusting!" Anna couldn't accept it. "What is their purpose of doing this?"
But Xie Yuan gave her a shocking answer: "Consuming the population."
Anna stopped immediately and looked at herself in horror, unable to speak for a long time.
Although it is indeed difficult to accept, Xie Yuan still explained the truth to Anna in detail: "The purpose of the pre-war government was to maintain the total population of the subway between 40,000 and 50,000.
You know that my exhibition station is a strong agricultural station, and since I promoted protein blocks, the Red Line, Hanseatic and even the Fourth Reich have imported grain to our exhibition station.
From that time on, I kept track of the amount of food that went out at each sale—basically the number of people consumed in the war each year was inversely proportional to the total amount of food imported by several parties from the fairgrounds. "
Anna didn't make a sound for a long time, and then looked into the distance for a while before thinking of a question: "How do you know other information?"
But Xie Yuanbie can say that he kept secret about the speculation about the invisible guardian: "How I know it I can't say, and I don't even want to prove that what I said is true - if you question it, you can think that I am talking nonsense. "
"Why?!" Anna felt very aggrieved, "Am I a person unworthy of trust?"
"I am willing to tell you that I believe you." Xie Yuan patted Anna's shoulder to calm down, "But the people and evidence that prove these things have disappeared over time, and some evidence...find it It will even kill a rare good person, so I don’t want to ask for confirmation anymore.”
Xie Yuan, the chairman of the Hanseatic League, has never met, let alone dealt with, a guy who knows these secrets.
Korbut of the Red Line is dead, and it is impossible for the living Mosvin to testify about this information. One of the reasons why Korbut provoked Mosvin to kill his brother was because his brother wanted to get rid of the control of the pre-war government. .
As for the Fourth Reich...well...may they die painlessly.
"Then..." Anna suddenly remembered something and hesitated to speak, but finally mustered up the courage to say it, "How much does my father know?"
"I don't know how much he knew."
Xie Yuan directly claimed that he didn't know, because he really didn't know the first one, and he probably wouldn't have any reaction if the second one knew: "Miller is a soldier, he shouldn't need to know so much.
In fact, if I couldn't stand it anymore, I wouldn't want to know so much... The pre-war government's measures were very cruel, but very effective - it maintained its dominance while also preserving the survival of the subway survivors.
I have no comment on this, but now when we are moving forward, they are holding everyone back, and that is their fault. "
Xie Yuan pointed to a hill in front of him: "Now I just want to pursue the crimes they are committing and have not stopped yet. They will never stop."
The so-called hill is a bridge spanning the railway. I don't know why, but climbing to the bridge is as troublesome as climbing a mountain.
"That's a railway there. What's going to happen on the railway?" Anna didn't understand what she would see after climbing up, which would be unacceptable to her. "Will there be a train passing here?"
But Xie Yuan didn't answer, and just motioned for his lover to follow him. Anna pouted and lightly stamped her feet to show her anger, but she still followed obediently.
In order to appease Anna's grievances, Xie Yuan diligently took the initiative to set up the saddle without her shouting, supported it with both hands, and let Anna climb up with him.
"Want to help?" Anna knelt down and stretched out her hand.
But this was too much to underestimate himself. Xie Yuan smiled, and then he lifted up his legs like green onions from dry land. He jumped over a hill that was almost as high as himself in one step and stood firmly on the bridge.
However, although he was very satisfied with his jumping performance, once he met Anna's eyes, Xie Yuan could only smile flatteringly in return.
As soon as we climbed onto the bridge, a snowstorm came as expected. In this heavy snow, it was difficult for everyone to communicate face to face.
And in the distance, a loud "rumbling" sound was coming from far and near, and it sounded particularly loud from the sound.
"Did you hear that, Artyom?...Some big guy is yelling...at least, it's far away..."
In fact, why Xie Yuan brought Anna out today was just to wait for this roar - only by seeing the real thing can Anna's current views and her long-standing worries be truly broken.
But even Anna herself found that talking and listening was a problem now, so while the two were very close, she immediately reminded on the radio: "I didn't expect the blizzard to come so fast! I can't see anything! I can't hear anything. Unclear!
Let's switch to radio! "
Switching radios can indeed communicate clearly in a snowstorm. It is the most common method used by explorers... but it is also the easiest method to detect and locate.
The people of the Hanseatic League must have radar equipment specifically designed to detect radio signals in the "forbidden zone" they set up. Once someone uses radio to communicate, they will immediately send out land patrols to "contain" them.
But it is only a short-term containment...
But Xie Yuan wanted Anna to do this. He wanted Anna to see with her own eyes how Hansa treated human life with her own eyes - just to maintain the lie that Moscow must be "silent".
So without reminding Anna at all, Xie Yuan directly switched to the radio communication mode, so Xie Yuan heard Anna's voice through the built-in headset.
Then, he heard Anna say dirty words to him in front of him and even on the radio for the first time after marriage.
"WHAT THE FUCK?!"
