Chapter 801 Who Is Afraid of Whom?
D had already expected that the new United States would extend an olive branch to him.
The reason is very simple. As a modern feudal religious country, the United States has always been a group of religious lunatics. The so-called "Chosen Nation" and "People of God" are one of the foundations of the United States. Since the end of the Unification War, President Miles has always wanted to completely reunify the United States.
After all, the two sides were evenly matched in the previous unification war. Later, Arasaka intervened to give both sides a step up. Finally, the New United States and the Free State signed an agreement. However, the Free State only joined the New United States in name only and did not truly recognize the New United States.
For President Miles, if she can be recognized by D, then as a religious country, it is equivalent to being recognized by God, and then it will not be a problem for the new United States to completely reunify.
For D, this is actually a good choice. As long as he joins forces with Miles to enhance the strength of New America, he can in turn force the mastermind behind the scenes to show up.
However, why?
Duanmu Huaike has never liked the United States, or in other words, he has always had feelings of disgust and contempt for the United States. Stupid, arrogant, barbaric - the sentence in Zizhi Tongjian, "Awe of power but not moral, small courtesy but no great justice" is the best portrayal of the United States.
Want him to help unify the United States?
Just kidding, he wishes the United States would follow in the footsteps of the Soviet Union.
So D directly rejected the request of the leader of the new United States. Just kidding, the new United States is nothing. If President Miles dared to show up, he would take care of her until her mother didn't even recognize her.
In this regard, D would rather choose the more troublesome route than choose the new United States to enhance its influence in this world.
And just as D thought, for Miles, this was an intolerable failure.
"boom!!"
Looking at the news reports in front of him, President Miles punched the table hard with a livid look on his face.
In fact, President Miles really hopes to prove himself by regaining Night City. After all, only Night City is still the Free City. If she can take back Night City, it means that she has completely and essentially completed the reunification of the new United States, not to mention that the person in charge of Night City is still a suspected angel. If she can get her support, then Miles His re-election is guaranteed!
Originally, Miles thought that the other party should choose to cooperate with New America. After all, he only wanted a name. If it was not possible, he could sign an autonomy treaty with Night City. Just like the Free State, as long as Night City is willing to return to the New United States, it can be allowed to have a certain amount of autonomy. In Miles' view, this is a way to get the best of both worlds.
But President Miles didn't expect that the other party didn't even think about it, and just slapped away the olive branch he handed over!
Not only that... what follows is the part that makes Miles the most angry.
"It amazes me...as far as I know, the new America has always lived out God's values..."
"They're just a bunch of heretics."
However, before the reporter finished speaking, he was directly interrupted by D.
"People kill each other, massacre, and occupy the land. This is their own business. However, they insist on talking about God's will - so what? You mean, the god we serve is a god who desires to kill. , does plunder and massacre exist? Evil heretics vent their desires, but they want to glorify their sins in the name of God. This country itself is a den of heresy based on blasphemy against God. It should not exist at all! "
Yes, for Miles, this passage has a greater impact on the new United States than a direct nuclear attack.
After all, when the colonists went to America, they described it as a city on a hill. They believed that this was a blessing given to their people by God. God guided their people to build a country in the New World that was completely different from the old world. Blessed country.
However, now, God's messenger, an angel, pointed his nose directly and scolded them that everything they did was for their own selfishness and blasphemy, and he did not hesitate to label them as heretics - for the citizens of the new United States. Said that this is almost equivalent to directly uprooting the values they have always believed in.
What a city on a mountain, it’s simply a den of heresy!
Because the news was broadcast live around the world, the new United States almost became a joke around the world for a while, and disputes arose within the new United States. Some people committed suicide in despair, some protested against the government, and some congressmen even proposed a bill to eliminate sins. In the end, The best way is to completely disband New America!
In just one day, President Miles fell from heaven to hell. Forget about reunifying the new United States, it might be about to disintegrate!
Especially the Free State, they have even begun to make some moves to try to separate again - although generally speaking, it is somewhat unethical to tear up the signed contract. But the Free State now has a very good excuse. After all, the angels said so, and we are all devout believers, so naturally we must follow God's will.
God’s messengers have said that this country should not exist, so everyone should get together and disperse.
Of course I disagree with Miles.
You have worked hard for more than ten years, but you want to disband with just one word?
Since you don't give me face, don't blame me for taking action!
Thinking of this, Miles' eyes flashed with murderous intent, and then he opened the communication.
"Get me the military technology!"
D certainly didn't think that the New America would surrender because of his words. Isn't the so-called religious belief just this thing? When it's useful, everyone uses it as a fig leaf, and throws it aside when it's useless. Is it because everyone here is a devout religious believer that he can control Night City so smoothly?
Of course not, it must be because he has the power of life and death over them with his fists.
So from a certain perspective, humans are the most realistic race, which is why humans can survive to this day. If they really apologized and committed suicide with just one word from him, it would be much more convenient.
Unfortunately, there is no such good thing in the world.
Sure enough, just a few days after he was interviewed, President Miles gave a speech, claiming that the free agreement signed with Night City was signed with Arasaka. But now Arasaka has gone bankrupt, so according to the agreement, Night City will also return to the New America, and she also stated that she will send military technology to take over Night City!
Of course, when it comes to acceptance, everyone knows what the situation is.
The reporter also asked Miles about the current change of hands of Night City and the angel that currently rules Night City...
"That's not an angel at all."
President Miles gave a direct answer.
"According to our scholars' research and judgment, it is just a kind of existence similar to a prosthetic creature. Not everything can represent God at will by inserting two wings on itself. We will let her realize this!"
"She is anxious, she is anxious."
Looking at Miles' serious expression on TV, D laughed.
[This is also in line with our prediction]
"That's right. After all, she has been president for ten years. Who would treat her as a naive person? And from their point of view, it is indeed right, isn't it?"
As D said, there are no monsters in this world. If an angel suddenly appears, even if those brainwashed religious idiots will believe it, others will not believe it. Although D has shown the ability to fly into the sky or ignore bullet attacks in front of the public before, from a scientific point of view, this is not completely inexplicable.
For example, flying into the sky may be some kind of anti-gravity system, and ignoring bullets may be optical camouflage or some special barrier.
In short, with the technology of this world, if you want to explain, everyone can still explain it.
After all, religious superstition is to attribute all the things that cannot be explained to gods. Once these things can be explained, superstition will naturally be dispelled.
Then, on the other hand, as long as I can do something that they can't explain, then my position as the messenger of God will be secure.
"Angel."
Just as D was thinking, someone pushed the door open with a serious look.
"What's the matter?"
"According to the report from the checkpoint, a private armed force with military technology was found fifteen kilometers outside the border of Night City. They asked to take over Night City!"
It must be said that Miles's actions were still very fast.
"I know, leave it to me."
D said, then stood up and turned to the balcony. She opened the window and looked at the busy city outside.
The white wings spread out.
"My lord, do you need the guards of Night City..."
"No need."
Faced with the secretary's inquiry, D shook his head.
"It's just military technology. I can handle it alone."
After saying this, D jumped up and turned into a flash of light. He flew into the air at a speed comparable to that of a supersonic fighter and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
The wind whistled past.
D lowered his head and looked at the Gobi Desert in front of him. At the end of the horizon, he saw a dark army lined up in an orderly manner. There were nearly a hundred heavy armored vehicles in front, and magic lizard tanks and missile vehicles behind, as well as armed helicopters and floating vehicles, which were quite shocking. And in front of the checkpoint not far in front of them, the soldiers responsible for guarding the checkpoint...
Uh...all ran away?
This is running too fast.
Looking at the empty checkpoint with almost no people, D rolled her eyes silently, and then she changed direction and slowly landed in front of the private armed forces of military technology.
Seeing D falling from the sky, the soldiers were also quite surprised and nervous. They clenched their weapons, and the black muzzles of the guns were also aimed at the angel girl.
Alas... Charm is still not good in this regard.
Looking at those soldiers who were a little shaken but still insisted on fighting with him, D sighed silently. Charm is indeed very useful in accepting tasks, getting rewards, or persuading. But in face-to-face battles, the effect of charm is actually not obvious, especially when fighting against a large army. The so-called Daji's stunning beauty is just an exaggerated metaphor. The fact is that even if D has 99 points of charm, it is impossible for these soldiers to turn against him with just a smile.
On the contrary, the fear aura is more useful at this time. If Duanmu Huai's real body appeared, these people would probably be paralyzed by fear, and there would be no need to think about any battle confrontation.
However, this does not mean that she can't fight--you know, the players here are also full-level players, fighting against the chaos demon army is no problem, a mere private armed force? Isn't this courting death?
"We are Military Technology. According to the provisions of the Unification Treaty, we are ordered to take over Night City. Put down your weapons and surrender immediately!"
Soon, the roar of the commander of Military Technology came from the loud speaker, and D just raised his eyebrows when he heard the roar.
"Take over? This is my city. How dare a mere blasphemer run wild here?"
"Put down your weapons immediately, otherwise, we will shoot!"
However, the other party obviously did not intend to listen to D. With an order, the soldiers soon raised their weapons and aimed at the girl in front of them.
"Stupid mortal."
At this moment, D also smiled. She spread her wings and flew into the air again, looking down at the people on the ground.
"You want to fight against God with your strength. You really don't know how to live or die! In this case, then I will let you feel the power of God!"
"Here it comes!!"
Hearing D's answer, the commander of Military Technology's face changed slightly, and he tightly gripped the walkie-talkie in his hand.
"Everyone, pay attention, start the reflected wave interference!"
As the commander spoke, a radar car soon emitted a strange wave, covering the entire military technology force.
Since Military Technology dared to come, it certainly was not to die. They also secretly studied D's combat. In their opinion, although D's combat power itself was very strong, it was not so strong that it could not be confronted. However, the means that the opponent had to invade and interfere with implants and weapons at will were her biggest threat.
Therefore, Military Technology also came up with a way, which was to directly use interference waves to completely shield all external manipulation. Although it was unknown how the opponent did it, it was very likely that it was done by hackers. In this case, as long as the communication port was locked or blocked, the outcome of being manipulated by the opponent could be avoided!
It must be said that Military Technology's idea was good-the premise was that D followed their script.
However, unfortunately, D did not intend to follow their script.
At this moment, she was going to show her powerful strength as a high-level player!
Instant Summoning, the Gate of Heaven!
As D's mind flashed, the next moment, dazzling light descended from the sky, and then everyone was surprised to see a pure white gate and castle emitting sacred light emerging from the thick clouds and appearing behind D.
"What is that??"
Seeing this scene, all the soldiers widened their eyes in surprise, unable to believe what they saw.
But for D, this is just the beginning.
[Chant: Twin Flames]
[Chant: Pure White Altar]
[Chant: Ancient Site of the Sacred Beast]
[Chant: Baptism of the Egret]
[Chant: Hymn of Immaculateness]
Soul cards flashed from D's fingertips, and then, a tiger as big as a tank with flames all over its body emerged out of thin air, accompanied by a heart-shaking roar, a white-winged dragon flew out of the clouds, and a group of white falcons almost the size of a helicopter roared down and hovered over the battlefield.
"What, what is this?"
"What on earth is this?"
Looking at the incomprehensible things in front of them, the soldiers of Military Technology finally panicked.
"Is this some kind of illusion? Am I hallucinating because I've seen too much Mewtwo?"
"Impossible, why does this thing exist in this world???"
"Keep calm!"
Seeing his men start to panic, the commander also shouted in haste.
"Don't be afraid, they are just a group of beasts, not worth mentioning at all, as long as we..."
However, before the commander finished speaking, he saw D raise her right hand, and another soul card emerged from her fingers.
[Chant: Ancient Guardian]
"————————"
The earth began to tremble.
The next moment, the ground collapsed, and everyone stared with wide eyes, watching a steel giant several dozen meters tall emerge from the ground, and the heavy armor was combined out of thin air, and in the blink of an eye it turned into a huge steel knight. It held a huge sword and stared coldly at the military technology vehicles and plastic figurines at its feet that looked like toys.
"This, this......"
Seeing this scene, the commander of the military technology had a blank mind. He didn't even know how to react. At the same time, D had raised his hand, pointed at the target in front of him, and then issued an order.
"Destroy them."
The next moment, the brutal battle began.
