Wasteland Echoer

The billowing white smoke, a symbol of death, floated up from the ground and gradually rose into the air. It was like a circle of ghosts bound by cruel power and could never break free, hovering on the tower cranes, abandoned high-rise buildings and high-rise sentries in the abandoned land.

Until the familiar roar passed over the heads of this group of "Northern Territory Bear Stormtroopers", the fierce scorching sun at noon finally broke through the blockade of white smoke, and sprinkled the sun's glory belonging to the short bright time and space on this area that had long been abandoned by humans and had experienced long nights and pain.

"This is our Federation's Aerospace Force, but judging from the sound of the engine, it is not the 'New-K01' and 'New-K02' bombers mass-produced by the Federation Committee this year. It is more like... um... the inferior 'Ceria Chrysanthemum', 'Khitan Peony', 'Rinie Hyacinth' and the old antique 'Northern Territory Sunflower' that were repaired by Kanosk and Vasilysk with reserve parts." Stanislav said.

He threw aside the mask and wristbands stained with the solidified green blood of the "Heartless Man", sniffed the increasingly strong exotic flower fragrance in the air, and continued to analyze:

"This recently activated commander-in-chief actually likes "old things". To be honest, "old things" are indeed easy to use and comfortable, but they will also break and fall apart quickly. However, these aerospace forces do not seem to be here to support us or bomb the "Heartless Man", but to sprinkle some medicine."

"Medicine? What medicine?" Oaks asked with a puzzled look.

"It is the latest agent developed by the "Heartless Man Virus Cleaning Group" under the Urban Happiness Group of our Federal Committee to eliminate the "Heartless Man Virus". It is said that the scientists affiliated with this inconspicuous institution gave it a very interesting name, called "Aokoski." Stanislav explained, and shook his head slightly, expressing his subtle helplessness.

What he didn't tell his team members was that this potion called "Iokski" originated from Ukharitova Romanuk, a student of Ivanov, a scientist in the old empire.

At that time, this great female scientist retained the last bit of justice as a human being in her heart and created this potion that was enough to prevent the outbreak of the "Heartless Virus" or quickly control the situation and eliminate the virus after the outbreak of the "Heartless Virus".

However, three months ago, after the Federal Committee discovered its production method, at the instruction of Vasily's secretary Kuka, a small fire broke out in the "Special Material Storage Warehouse" in the corner of the "Steel Flame Scream" palace area, and half of the documents storing this batch of information were burned.

The remaining half of the information can be deployed as a preventive agent for the "Heartless Virus" in a limited killing environment based on the existing resources, but it no longer has the functions of "clearing the virus in the body" and "preventing the continued production of the virus".

In the middle and late period of the old empire, when steam technology almost reached its peak, the scientific research team controlled by Ivan XXV had actually developed a relatively mature "large-scale electronic computer", which was a step further than the differential engine and analytical engine. However, due to the continuous economic recession of the empire, the large-scale innovation of industry and technology that was originally expected was not realized until the outbreak of the "New Dollar Crisis" and the complete collapse of technological progress.

Perhaps it was because Vasily noticed the disloyalty and tricks of his secretary, so he urgently recalled him to Binglin City before the "Moon Finger Ceremony" to indicate the direction began. It is estimated that he was already in a room underground in the "Xingyu Main Hall" at this time, either being tortured or under house arrest.

After dealing with this possible hidden "Viking Faction", Vasily issued an order to the "Northern Territory Bear Stormtroopers" to find the "lost large-scale electronic computer" through the "Northern Territory Bear Secret Radio".

According to a document found in the deepest part of the ruins of Choigrad, at the end of Ivan XXV's reign, Iokolia Ekaterina Nebuslova, who developed the "computer", sealed a "large electronic computer" that could be preserved for a thousand years without rusting and still be usable near the Winternos River Basin in the "Ultra-Cold Special Zone" just out of caution about the research results.

After the federal historians, mathematicians and physicists calculated the large integral formula left by Iokolia, they interpreted the accurate positioning coordinates of the burial. What surprised Stanislav, who accepted the task, was that the result of the formula calculation was not much different from the result obtained by the "Moon Finger Ceremony", which was "B2.47-C1.34".

If the location of the "Moon Finger Ceremony" is the key area that can break through the wind wall, then the result of the integral formula calculation is a specific area inside the "wind wall".

In other words, the mission of this "Northern Territory Bear Assault Team" is ostensibly to clear out the "careless people" and lost people hidden in this abandoned land. But in fact, Stanislav knew that they not only had to find the "large electronic computer" and bring it back to Ice City, but also had to cooperate with Yaroslav to find "Pramini" and "Echo" behind the "Wind Wall" and take "God Killing Action" when necessary to eliminate all possible factors that hinder the "Universe Energy Evolution Platform Project".

While Stanislav was concentrating on thinking about the task, the "New-K 01" and "New-K 02" bombers also completed the release of the "Ioksky" agent. Since the agent and "Thermite's End of Silence" would not affect each other, the confusing smoke rose again in this abandoned land.

It took almost half an hour for the smoke to finally dissipate, and it was already afternoon.

Nearly eight hours after defeating Nikolai and the "Heartless Men" under his control, the federal army, wearing the federal national emblem and the Vasilysk local regiment insignia, finally drove a mechanical chariot carrying a large weapon capable of destroying the city. Weapons entered this abandoned land.

…

October 2nd, 7pm.

The former site of the communication and expansion project on both sides of the Winternoss River, the abandoned factory residential area, and the temporary command post.

As early as the morning when the "Northern Territory Bear Stormtroopers" and the "Heartless Men" started fighting, Sofia sent by Yaroslav came to the outer area of ​​​​this abandoned place, on a hillside higher than the surrounding terrain, and watched the battle with the help of a telescope .

At about 12 noon, after Yaroslav mobilized bombers to drop chemicals to eliminate the "unintentional" virus, Yaroslav and the other local military commanders in Vasilysk, as well as two scientists Igor and Ross and their team led The team then settled into the residential area of ​​the factory building, which still maintained basic residential functions, and set up a temporary camp and command post.

On a large, worn-out wooden table, Yaroslav carefully examined the "Planning Plan for the Ventnos River Communication Project" that was spread out more than a hundred years ago. He frowned from time to time, and from time to time he uttered Sighing, about fifteen minutes later, he breathed a sigh of relief, took off his white officer gloves that were stained with dirt and blood, picked up the red and blue pencils on the side, and drew a few small circles on the map. Finally, he called to the people around him:

"It should be here. Judging from my experience, the location where the old empire used the 'Lightweight Fire of Punishment' to blast should be this point. The location where the woods, rivers and bridges meet is also what you gave me. Among the several suspected points, it is relatively close to the wind wall area.”

"Here? γ point?" Igor asked in a skeptical tone:

"General Commander, this point is a bit further away from the wind wall than the α and β points. I really can't understand the reason why the sergeant major of the old empire put the 'Lightweight Fire of Punishment' here. .

"From a realistic point of view, the α point can blast out a temporary small lake to facilitate the storage and temporary transfer of materials. The Winternoss River was not a seasonal river for most of the time during the old empire, but was nearly 15 kilometers long. A wide river."

"Dahe? What do you say?" Sofia came forward cautiously, stood behind Yaroslav, and asked curiously.

"That's it, Ms. Sophia." Rose stood up, handed Sophia a handwritten document used to demonstrate the feasibility of bridge construction during the Crusad Empire, and explained:

"What the Old Empire originally wanted to build was not a bridge, but a tunnel, similar to the undersea tunnel used by the Ptoia Empire to connect Britannia and Gaul. Building a tunnel requires making caissons and transporting a large amount of cement and steel bars. Waiting for building materials, and the closest ones are Magic City and 'Ivan Port' near the Endless Ice Ocean.

"Through water transportation, it can not only assist construction, but also significantly reduce construction costs. After all, the empire's finances during that period were already showing signs of decline. So Igor and I predicted that the 'Lightweight Fire of Punishment' will be here Detonation is logical and profitable. If we place the location of the ceremony and bombardment, we can trigger the 'Abandoned Chain of Old Time'."

"'Abandoned Chain of the Old Time'? I feel like I can't understand it more and more." Sophia waved her hand, made a helpless expression, and looked up at the ceiling that was already covered with mottled marks.

But the next second, she was forcibly pulled back to the wooden table by Yaroslav, accepted his earnest teachings, and said:

"You have to learn even if you don't understand. You young people have better understanding than an old guy like me. As my secretary, if you don't know anything about this knowledge related to military and science and technology, you will not only lose me. ’s face, and that of Chief Vasily.

"You have to know that force alone cannot solve all problems. Which of the secretaries of military commanders doesn't know all the situations in their respective regions before taking on new positions?"

"I understand, Grandpa." Sofia whispered apologetically.

"I said that when on the battlefield, you should address yourself as a commander." Yaroslav criticized seriously.

"Yes, Commander-in-Chief."
