Security Bureau Building, No. 176 Fuxing Avenue, Zixia District, Longshan Underground City.
"Attention, attention, yellow rainstorm warning, all units should do disaster reduction and protection work."
A sweet, sweet female voice echoed around the towering electric fence. As several rain bombs with red light were fired into the sky, the rain clouds stimulated by the silver iodide particles could no longer bear it, carrying with them the majestic water vapor accumulated in the past half month, and the rain poured down. Within a moment, the world turned completely white. The factory chimney, which was spewing scorching steam, instantly changed from a red pillar that penetrated the sky to a thin red line.
The river of filth is raging, the waves are like anger, and such a narrow sky can't accommodate a single sun. Even if it overshadows its brilliance, who doesn't know that if you raise your head three feet and three feet, the sky will be full of daylight? But the continuous raindrops that almost bent the umbrella ribs extinguished how many people's dreams of looking up at the sky?
Therefore, in the Security Bureau, dream is a derogatory term.
It was raining heavily, but there was no wind. The raindrops falling vertically hit the black umbrella and scattered like rocks, soaking the long black windbreaker. The palm holding the handle of the umbrella was so white that it was almost pale. She raised her head slightly and looked at the Security Bureau building with red lights flashing in the rain.
The main entrance of the Security Bureau building is tightly guarded. A street-fighting "White Horse Yicon" infantry fighting vehicle suddenly comes into view. The turret points diagonally in the air. Its four-unit 30mm armor-piercing rotary cannon declares that it is also a basic air defense unit of the army. Functions as an infantry meat grinder.
On both sides of the barrier made of flood control sandbags were a whole squad of individual mechas.
The "Iron Buddha" type individual mecha is a heavy firepower and heavy armor exoskeleton based on the Mingguang Armor operating system. The frontal armor is 30 mm thick and is completely immune to small arms and small-caliber artillery shell fragments. Even direct fire from rifle grenades cannot shake its defense. The "Iron Buddha" used to cooperate with infantry operations is equipped with a large number of heavy weapons. Hanging from the left arm is a 23mm smart cannon with 200 rounds of ammunition, and a 40mm six-shot tracking rocket launcher on the right hand. Not only that, the most powerful weapon of the "Iron Buddha" is the 155mm grenade launcher it carries. It is conceivable that once the "Iron Buddha" is put into street fighting, it will be a terrifying barricade destroyer, and its efficiency is not even weaker than the street fighting version of the "Siberian Tiger" main battle tank!
In order to drive this individual mecha that is 4 meters high and weighs over 3 tons, the standard engine output of the "Iron Buddha" can reach 150 horsepower, and the hydraulic device can produce 30,000 newtons of force. Its walking device and suspension system can operate in cruel conditions. Proven strong adaptability and reliability in the battle on the surface ruins.
This single mecha of a four-person team can suppress the charge of more than a thousand small alien beasts. If placed in a riot-control type of street fighting, its lethality is self-evident.
Infantry fighting vehicles and individual mechas, with raindrops shattering on their armor, dark gun barrels and tall breastplates and helmets, if an ordinary person passes through the array, can you imagine the psychological pressure?
"Security check."
Wen Yue stood under the inspection camera, and multiple beams of scanning lasers were illuminated. Within a few seconds, Wen Yue's iris, fingerprints, gait and posture were compared with unique biological information. And the most important part is the semi-invasive cranial cavity module placed in the skull. The induction chip inside contains Wen Yue's brain wave information. Absolutely impossible to imitate.
"Identity confirmed, released."
Wen Yue adjusted her sunglasses as a sign, holding a bulletproof umbrella and climbing up the stairs. Along the way, various types of mine-resistant riot control vehicles, aerospace vehicles, flying skateboards and other cutting-edge vehicles can be seen everywhere. If things go wrong, Zixia The District Security Bureau building can mobilize 1,200 armed agents in an instant. After a short period of preparation, plus civilian and technical personnel, there will be 2,000 well-trained armed personnel.
The Security Bureau, the National Defense Force, and the Zixia Police System are three pillars that control the light and dark sides of Zixia District.
Raindrops followed the tip of the umbrella and pattered on the black-edged and white-patterned marble tiles of the building. Wen Yue's sunglasses reflecting the burgundy light were her business card, and all the passing detectives paid attention to her.
But today's attention ceremony obviously contains a joking element.
As if to say, look, this beautiful girl almost destroyed her brain while playing with her.
Wen Yue would naturally not pay attention to this kind of gaze. In the more gloomy and depressing atmosphere of today's bureau, this kind of malicious gaze was fleeting and almost consistent with the voyeuristic gaze that Wen Yue was too lazy to pay attention to.
This subtle atmosphere became more obvious after Wen Yue took the elevator to the floor of the fifth branch. Although they came and went in a hurry in the past, the female civil servants who could always read their emotions on their faces are now stepping on high heels quickly, and even raising their hands to greet each other has become a greeting with their eyes.
This reminds Wen Yue that there are changes in the situation today.
The second group's office is at the end of the corridor. Under the cold and bright lights, a very regular and powerful sound of leather boots gradually came. If Wen Yue hadn't had a sharp hearing, it would have been difficult to detect the sound hidden in the loud footsteps. The sound of leather shoes.
Soon, Wen Yue saw with her own eyes the source of the depressing atmosphere.
A man with brightly colored medals on his chest and a gold star on his armband outside a gray-blue military uniform indicates his master's rank as a major general. He is followed by several colonel officers with intertwined armbands and stars. Their holsters are still on their ribs, and the guards who are following them are surrounded. Everyone in the bureau is isolated.
The officers of the National Defense Force came towards them, and Wen Yue suddenly had the idea of saluting them, but she immediately got out of the way and bowed her head in greeting.
A year and a half ago, she was still a second lieutenant of the National Defense Force in a field green military uniform. When encountering this situation, she had to stand upright and salute immediately until the general left.
The general stopped in front of Wen Yue. He was not taller than Wen Yue, but Wen Yue lowered her head, so naturally the general looked down at her slightly.
"Your name, Agent."
"Report, Wen Yue." Wen Yue raised her head and said loudly.
The general seemed to take a few deep breaths as he examined Wen Yue's face, including thin eyebrows, phoenix eyes, lion nose, pursed thin lips, and a slender face with oval seeds. These constitute the elements of beauty.
Obviously, the general did not come here specifically to admire the flowers of the Fifth Branch of the Security Bureau in front of Tian Guanzhi, the director of the Fifth Branch of the Security Bureau. After a few blinks, the general said: "Wen Yue... your name is unknown?"
His voice was majestic and tough. This general with an unattractive appearance and piercing eyes had many polite words for a young former second lieutenant.
Wen Yue searched her mind and didn't know that she had known a general-level boss in her nearly six years of service. I did see her during the awarding ceremony, but it was a collective awarding ceremony at that time. There is no reason that the brigade commander would remember her as a very manly woman at that time when dozens of people were there.
"Report, my father's name is Wen Bin."
Maybe knowing his father? After his father's death, he was posthumously awarded the rank of lieutenant colonel. However, considering that in his last few years, his father served in an infantry battalion stationed around Tianchi on the surface of Longshan and was a second-line force, there was no chance of meeting powerful people.
"Wen Bin's daughter..." There was a look of reminiscence on the general's wrinkled face.
"In the blink of an eye, it's been almost thirteen years, Baiyun Canggu."
The general stretched out his hand towards Wen Yue. Although Wen Yue was surprised, her expression remained normal. The two shook hands briefly, and then the general said:
“I have worked with my father for a while and he is a very principled person.
"Tiger father has no dog daughter."
…
"Sister Yue, who is that person?"
When the National Defense Force group left accompanied by Wen Yue's immediate boss, Director of the Fifth Branch, Tian Guanzhi. Sun Youke, who was hiding and watching, immediately jumped out and asked curiously.
Wen Yue shrugged, took off his sunglasses and put them in his pocket, wrung the water from his windbreaker, and said: "The grey-blue army uniform shows that he is the representative of the National Defense Force garrison in Zixia District, with one lieutenant general and two major generals, and one directly under the headquarters. , one each for the Army and Air Force, who do you think he will be?"
Sun Youke stuck out her tongue and spread her hands to show that she was not using her brain. She thought about it and said tentatively: "Ren Dingjia?"
"That's a general of the National Defense Forces! What are you thinking?" Wen Yue said angrily. The dignified commander-in-chief of the army can be remembered as a major general.
Fortunately, Sun You had never actually been in the army and had spent three years in a surface military hospital. Otherwise, the words just mentioned were enough to make Wen Yue's head spin.
"He is Zhao Chenggang, commander of the Zixia garrison, you know."
Wen Yue suddenly thought something was wrong, so she asked suspiciously: "Don't think you just came here like me. What were you doing the past few days?"
Sun Youke, who was caught, showed an embarrassed smile and whispered: "You are running errands, why don't you take a vacation secretly?"
"..."
Entering the second team's office, one returned from injury and the other left early and arrived late. Chen Xiaoxiang glanced at the two of them, said nothing, and waved to Wen Yue.
"Wen Yue, come with me to the technical room."
Lying on the restraint chair in the middle of the technical room, Luo Beiqing, with only the whites of her eyes, was naked. However, the prosthetic skeleton without the bionic skin had no beauty. Under the latex cushion, there was a very thin layer. The ultra-light armor made of carbon-beryllium woven fiber should be the secret that allows the Thirteen Girls to not only defend against bullets, but also dance lightly, and also penetrate into the plasma pool under the gravity cube.
Wen Yue frowned. She knew that the Thirteen Girls' prosthetic body had a high degree of transformation, but she didn't expect that it had reached a "cyborg" level, which was close to 100% transformation. After removing the bionic skin, Luo Beiqing's body can be directly seen.
Her entire skeletal system was replaced with an endogenous titanium alloy skeleton intertwined with polyester fiber muscle system, and the white plasma liquid was slowly circulating and refrigerated. Except for certain physical tissues that have been retained in sensitive areas for some purpose, all important organs have been transformed into bionic cybernetic parts.
For example, the lungs are replaced with a high-efficiency filter and oxidation system that provides necessary energy replacement for other organs through pressurized air storage units. A small part is passed to the brain to maintain the operation of the physical brain. Therefore, Luo Beiqing did not need to breathe at all, just finding an oxygen tank and taking two puffs was enough.
Through the transparent skull, Wen Yue looked at the shrunken walnut brain, filled with wires and data cables. This is Luo Beiqing’s last 1% of humanity. Rather than transforming her body into a prosthetic body, it is better to say that she transplanted the brain that carries her personality memories into a mechanical body. Her body has been customized, and her lifespan has been reduced to two or three years in exchange for a body of steel.
Is it worth it?
Wen Yue couldn't answer.
"Have you never seen such a cyborg?" Lin Zexing, who was typing the code, sighed while operating.
"This is also the first time I've seen it. I used to think that such a full cyber transformation was somewhat based on rumors, but now that I've actually seen it, I don't believe it even more."
"What don't you believe?"
"We have this technology, but it's still underground."
Wen Yue had nothing to say. She shook her head and said, "I checked the 'pon-pon sauce' band on the way here. Although they are the best underground idol band in Zixia District, all thirteen of them have changed to this Super prosthetics cannot be achieved by just singing and dancing.”
"Moreover, the chips that control so many prosthetics and the integrated customized subsystems are not produced underground. Even in the Qinglong Special Zone, the output is very small."
This is for sure. Luo Beiqing's body strength without exoskeleton assistance is already amazing. It is so easy to overturn a car. Regarding the more important hydraulic suspension system, her system structure makes it easy to lift 500 kilograms of weight with bare hands. Anyway, soap and silk armor can't do it, and you can't ask a lightweight exoskeleton with an empty weight of less than 10 kilograms to lift objects dozens of times more than its weight. Not that much torque, not that much power. Running against the wall and lifting weights in place are two different concepts.
If Luo Beiqing puts on a "black ice platform", Wen Yue really doesn't think she can beat her. Wearing "Mingguang Armor", she can beat thirteen girls at once. It's like a soldier cutting down thirteen girls who have practiced the Golden Bell. But wearing armor on the opposite side is a different story.
Mecha practices martial arts, Wen Yue is flesh wrapped in iron, while others are made of iron wrapped in gold, can this be fought?
There's no need to fight, sisters.
And Luo Beiqing's prosthetic body is obviously systematic. Even though the system wiring was deliberately disrupted and key procedures changed, in the eyes of insiders of the Security Bureau, it still had a strong Operation Bureau style.
Wen Yue began to guess the reason why Lu met the major general of the National Defense Force. I'm afraid Zhao Chenggang didn't come to the Security Bureau to question him because of another accident with the gas pipeline. If it really exploded, it wouldn't be him who would come to hold him accountable, but the Army Commander-in-Chief Sun Youke said would come to the Director of the Security Bureau with a gun.
"Such a prosthetic body was customized by the National Defense Forces." Wen Yue didn't need to ask. She had stayed in the Jaegers long enough. The Jaegers had the highest supply order and could often enjoy some experimental ultra-cutting-edge technology. The same goes for prosthetics.
In other words, the Operations Directorate has obtained cutting-edge prosthetic equipment belonging to the National Defense Forces, and is preparing to use it to blow up the National Defense Forces arsenal.
It is better to eat the inside and outside.
Chen Xiaoxiang nodded, crossed his arms and said that the National Defense Forces had directly lodged a serious protest with Hailanjiang Group and demanded a thorough investigation of Qinglong Industrial Park. This is thirteen full-body cyber-modified machines, equipment for two tactical teams, and a quarter's production.
But Chen Xiaoxiang’s next words made everyone’s hair stand on end.
"On the basis of meeting the quarterly orders of the National Defense Force, the surface can produce one more quarter."
"Their prosthetic technology, both in terms of quantity and quality, may have already caught up with ours."
Chen Xiaoxiang put his hand on the cable connected to Luo Beiqing's head, with a complicated expression.
"Moreover, their will and determination are stronger than we imagined."
