Some readers may find it strange: this parallel universe has arrived in 2049, and technology is thirty years ahead of our world. In addition, there is the Fire War, and various alien technologies should have been studied and absorbed. How? Don’t you feel that this earth is very advanced? Apart from anything else, why are the weapons on display all from our era?
This problem needs to be explained from several aspects: First, the technological level of this group of aliens who invaded the earth is not particularly high.
Remember how I described the first battle between humans and aliens - the Millennium War? "A large number of alien spaceships swarmed out from the "bridge entrance". The spaceships were of various styles, including round, square and fusiform; there were also more exotic shapes, such as U-shaped or cylindrical. The specifications were also different, and the big ones were comparable to each other. The smallest human aircraft carrier is only the size of a car... In short, these alien spacecraft look quite complicated, but humans still discovered the same thing: they don't look like "alien civilian spacecraft"."
Found it? These alien spaceships are not standard. If it is an invasion by an alien regime or race, then according to common sense, the specifications and styles of the spacecraft should be uniform.
After interrogation of alien captives and research by earth scientists, humans learned the identity of this group of aliens-space pirates.
There are countless races in the universe, and each race naturally has criminals and scum. The way alien regimes deal with them is generally to exile them, leaving them to fend for themselves in the universe.
In addition to the exiled prisoners, the members of the pirate group also include interstellar bandits who make a living by plundering; wars broke out between planets and defeated soldiers in exile; the home planet was destroyed for various reasons, and people around the world migrated to wander the universe as refugees...
The above-mentioned wanderers formed a loose alliance, aiming to find a stable galaxy, either as a home, as a base for counterattack, or simply to make a fortune and leave.
By chance, they discovered Earth.
We all know what happened next.
The combined army is composed of a bunch of homeless people. The number of races exceeds one hundred, and the level of technology is naturally uneven. Some races have no concept of technology at all: their bodies are extremely powerful. Have you ever seen Ultraman driving a spaceship through the universe?
There are races with extremely high technological levels, but not only are they few, they also cannot play their due role. For example, if a scientist who masters nuclear principles commits a crime, he will not be able to build an atomic bomb in prison, let alone an ordinary criminal.
On average, the technological level of this group of space pirates is almost the same as that of the planet Cybertron. No matter how advanced the weapons are, they are just laser beams, there is no such thing as two-way foil; races that are good at physical fitness do not have existences like Frieza. It is impossible to explode stars with one punch, and those who are comparable to the Predator are Top notch.
In short, the earth has a lot to fight for. After all, the opponents are not the Necrons, Thanos, the Four Gods of Chaos, and Superman's Kryptonian fellows, but the alien-level aliens from Independence Day, District 9, Transformers, and Battle of Los Angeles.
The most technologically valuable achievement among the Pirates is the "bridge" channel over Canberra. But it wasn’t made by these cosmic vagabonds, they bought it on the cosmic black market. Just like a small country in Africa also has aircraft and cannons, but they didn't build them themselves.
Therefore, the composition of Earth's enemies is actually quite extreme. You can barely think of it as a race whose space jump technology has been successful, and whose weapons are still matchlock guns and bows (yes, I'm talking about Harry Totterduff's " The Rokosolan civilization in "The Lost World").
During the Battle of Fire and after the victory of the war, the Federation's research on alien technology never stopped, but most of the technology it obtained was for military use and relatively few for civilian use. In imagination, earth-shaking changes have taken place in the lives of people on earth, but this has not yet materialized.
Secondly, weapon upgrades are not an easy task.
Take our world as an example. The world's technological development has been stagnant for decades. Today's technologies are upgraded and deepened on the technologies of decades or even hundreds of years ago. There are no epoch-making technological inventions, and the same is true for military technology.
The F22 project started bidding in 1981, and it has been 38 years since.
B2 was launched by the Carter administration in 1978, and 41 years later, it is still the most advanced on the planet.
The predecessor of GPS was developed in 1958 and put into use in 1964, 55 years ago.
The first U.S. nuclear submarine was put on trial in 1954, 65 years ago.
The first nuclear bomb in the United States was used in actual combat on August 6, 1945, 74 years ago.
The American B17 Flying Fortress entered service in 1937, 82 years ago.
The first aircraft carrier in the United States was commissioned in 1922, 97 years ago.
The most advanced of the above weapons and equipment only have better performance on the original weapons and equipment, and there is no substantial change.
For example, future weapons such as electromagnetic guns, laser weapons, electromagnetic weapons, etc., humans have never thought of applying them, but under the premise that the battery energy density does not change by an order of magnitude, these have failed.
So far, human power is still based on the internal combustion engine and electricity of the second industrial revolution. Advanced means adding the computer and network applications of the third industrial revolution.
There is basically no essential difference between guns a hundred years ago and guns today.
There is not much difference between the cannons of a hundred years ago and the cannons of today.
The main difference between cars a hundred years ago and cars today is probably carburetors and electronic injection.
In this parallel universe, the above-mentioned future weapons have been developed, but they are either at the laboratory stage or are the military's trump card. Similar to AK47, they are sold everywhere, which is unrealistic.
So you will see that the protagonist is holding an Uzi submachine gun, the BTS minister is using a Remington, and the one flying in the sky is an Apache.
However, it was precisely because most people used conventional firearms that Yun Ming was able to survive.
Jin's pistol is a German P229 pistol. If it had been a magnetic blast pistol, half of Yun Ming's body would have been shattered, instead of just shooting through the lungs like now.
The effective range of the German P229 pistol is 50 meters, while the distance between Jin and Yunming is five kilometers. Yun Ming should not have chosen the location of the "air flash" on the top of a high-rise building with a wide view, which allowed Jin to see the Bangkok Bridge five kilometers away.
At this distance, Jin couldn't see Yun Ming, but with a relatively accurate direction, it would meet the activation standard of "So Close to the End". He pulled the trigger on the Bangkok Bridge and activated his ability at the same time.
Bullets have a rate of fire, and the distance divided by the velocity is the time it takes for the bullet to exit the muzzle and hit the target. Even ordinary people can dodge bullets in a large part of this time.
But gold can affect time just by changing distance.
This is easy to understand. If a person stands fifty meters away and shoots you, you still dare to run and hide; if a person holds a gun to the back of your head, you dare not move. It is the same truth.
A 0.45-inch Smith & Wesson pistol bullet hit Yun Ming in the right chest. It could have been a blow to the heart, but Kim showed mercy.
Yun Ming woke up from a coma. He felt that his chest hurt so much that it hurt to breathe, as if what he had sucked into his lungs was not air, but steel needles.
"Do you feel pain? This is proof that you are alive." Yun Ming somehow remembered the lines from "Tokyo Ghoul".
"Oh... He's still alive." Yun Ming did not enter the soul realm while he was in coma. This time, the struggle on the line of death was ordinary and nothing happened. "Ahem, my life is really lucky."
"It's not a big deal that you survived, right? Don't flatter yourself." A clear female voice sounded, responding to Yun Ming's soliloquy.
"Who is it?" Yun Ming wanted to turn his head to look at the source of the sound, but the slightest movement involved the wound, and the pain prevented him from moving.
"This voice sounds so familiar, it looks like that..." The name was on his lips, but Yun Ming just couldn't say it.
"You forgot so quickly? Do you remember it now?"
The man walked up to Yun Ming, and Yun Ming saw a girl's face turned 180 degrees: "Jiang Yao?"
"Correct answer," Jiang Yao sat back on the chair: "It seems that your brain is not broken."
"Why are you here? No, where is this? Why am I here? Where are Zhong Yi and Pu Che Shi?"
"Hey, hey," Jiang Yao shook her head, although Yun Ming couldn't see her movements: "I know there are many situations you can't figure out, but you have to at least express your gratitude to me as your savior, right?"
Yun Ming was stunned: "Oh, yes, thank you."
"You're welcome." Jiang Yao shrugged: "It's just an agreement I made with your minister. I'm just fulfilling my obligations."
Yun Ming wanted to say something more, but Jiang Yao interrupted him:
"Stop talking. I know it's hard for you to breathe now. Just listen to me."
"We are in Kuala Lumpur now. The Dark Army has safe houses all over East and Southeast Asia, and this is one of them."
"After you were seriously injured and fell to the ground, Zhong Yi couldn't bring you and Pu Cha Shi who were unconscious at the same time, so he had to stop your bleeding while contacting Lu Yin."
"As a result, the boss and I have just sorted out where to stay, and within two minutes of resting, Lu Yin called us up to fulfill our mutual aid obligations." Jiang Yao's tone was full of dissatisfaction and resentment: "Are you three out of your mind? , will you cause trouble as soon as you come to Baoxiang County? And you will make me and Xu Xi have to wipe your butts."
"Ahem... I've caused you trouble." Yun Ming apologized weakly.
"It's too late!" Jiang Yao refused to accept this trick: "In order to get you out of Bangkok as quickly as possible, we used the hidden line that the secret army had deployed in Baoxiang County before, so that you could escape pursuit, and you also moved The operation saved my life."
"But things that were arranged in a hurry, the finishing work cannot be completed properly. Several secret agents are most likely exposed, and it is inevitable that Xu Xi and I will not be found if we follow the clues," Jiang Yao said regretfully: "The foundation of the secret army in Baoxiang County It’s considered useless.”
"But you are lucky. For some reason, the media has bitten you off as members of the Renaissance Organization. Compared with what happened in Long County, what you three did is really childish. The target of the blame has been turned to the rebel organization. I pay less attention to you."
Jiang Yao doesn’t know the cause and effect of this matter, but we who have God’s perspective know. It was obviously Raymond who manipulated public opinion and diverted people's attention to the revival, which they knew nothing about.
"Hey, you obviously cooperated with the Renaissance Organization to attack BTS not long ago, right? Is it really okay to call your partners rebels so naturally?" Yun Ming complained silently in his heart, and asked: "What happened in Long County What happened?"
"Hey," Jiang Yao's tone became lower: "The media reports are: Qian Jin, the governor of Long County, died in the Fuxing assassination."
"Is this a frame-up?" Yun Ming was not stupid.
"Of course it's a frame-up." Jiang Yao was sure: "Revival is at most a chess piece involved, but the real chess player is..."
"Federal Cabinet Member Tang Wenlong."
