Chapter 456 Secret Transport Mission
"On October 17, the Berry Army strongly condemned the African Union's military operations in the Indian Ocean and near the Gulf of Aden, and said it was a provocation to freedom and democracy."
"That afternoon. The Atlas Group publicly warned the African Union: The Berry Army may launch an attack within 24 hours."
"The Middle East Alliance said that corporate intelligence is a joke. Atlas is a group of miners and should mine well."
"On October 18, local residents saw a large number of naval ships passing through the Gulf of Aden, and fighter jets appeared in the sky."
"The United Nations called on all parties to sit down and talk."
"Breaking news! The port of Bossaso was indiscriminately bombed and the area has become a ruin!"
"The first unmanned armored unit of the Berry country was airdropped to Galloway and has now occupied the area!"
"The United Nations envoy warned that the African-American conflict is moving towards a full-scale war"
"Breaking news! Breaking news! The Berry Army's Nimitz-class aircraft carrier Truman was sunk in the waters of Somalia!!!"
People in many countries in the world thought that this was just another international bullying. From the beginning, everyone condemned it, and now people are used to it.
Anyway, it can't be stopped, so what can be done?
But until these few words popped up in the news, many people's big butts sitting on chairs and sofas also jumped up -
At the same time, their office doors and their internal telephones also jumped open!
The Berry Army lost almost an aircraft carrier attack group!
This is a big trouble, in all senses of the word.
But the choices have become more.
In one day, the situation suddenly changed.
Aircraft carriers were sent out, fighter planes took off, and bombs were bombed.
From the leaked video, the attacked port of Hobia has become a ruin, and corpses can be seen after walking two steps.
The war correspondent walked forward tremblingly, surrounded by the sound of digging ruins.
The soldiers of the African Union wore exoskeletons and equipped with large excavation equipment, dragging out one body after another from the ruins.
Some were corpses, some were living people, and the similarity was that most of their limbs were not very complete.
Those who still had the opportunity to hug and cry were undoubtedly lucky, but unfortunately those who were placed in the tent area -
The children stared at the ruins blankly, and the tears in the eyes of adults could not stop flowing out.
The sea was burning with flames, and leaked fuel, wreckage and other garbage were floating on it, mixed with human bodies.
This used to be a dirty and messy port, but now it is a bloody port.
". This is the port of Hobia. As you can see, it was once a small port city with 15,000 residents.
To be precise, this can only be called a fishing village. The tranquility and natural scenery it once had have become ruins under the atrocities.
It is estimated that this round of bombing may have caused more than 2,000 deaths, and the specific number is still being counted.
But in the more densely populated Posoza, the occupying forces refused to accept war correspondents. It is said that the local area was attacked by fully automated war machines-
I dare not imagine how tragic the situation there is, because according to the African Union, they have tried their best to prevent the Berry Army from landing here.
But in Posoza and Garowe, only the loose Somali regime resisted."
The reporter walked to the ruins, and the camera captured two children and men kneeling in front of different ruins.
After hesitating for a moment, he walked to the child.
But he hesitated again, and did not speak, but silently motioned the camera to a charred arm in the ruins.
".We will continue to bring you reports on the local war situation, but I hope we can find a solution to the problem."
The live broadcast did not stop, but continued to visit the bombed Hobia Port.
In Zhuya City, Captain Carter, who had just woken up, finished watching the last piece of news and was speechless.
The situation on the scene was exactly the same as World War II.
She felt like she was dreaming, thinking that a war was over, but she woke up and was still in a war.
And this time, her former allies became enemies, and they could not even be seen on the battlefield.
The screen captured a small black hand covered with dust, and the whole arm might be only as long as her forearm.
".Have I really been frozen for decades?"
"I'm sorry, Captain, you look like you've been knocked unconscious." Frank stood up from his hospital bed and moved his arms--
Now he has a new set of prosthetics. The second-generation prosthetic technology of the Atlas Group has been successfully installed on the Whirlpool Gang, and has been working for dozens of hours. After adjusting some minor problems, it is officially put into use here.
Carter turned her head and saw her appearance through the mirror.
Radiation and explosions left terrible burns on her face and neck, but the Atlas Group repaired her with artificial skin.
But it always feels weird.
"Humanity can only have peace for sixty years in sixty years? After the whole world worked together to defeat..., there was only peace for 60 years?"
Lille controlled the robot and walked past him: "In fact, it's not that long. In 1946, Greece fired the first shot after World War II, the civil war."
Frank laughed instinctively when he heard this-although it was a bit hellish, he still laughed out loud.
"Boss, what you said sounds like the first shot in Lexington."
Carter was not in such a good mood and couldn't laugh at all - 60 years? 1 year!
"Frank, there is no big problem with your physical condition, except for some radiation damage. I have already amputated the limb with the most severe radiation. Although there is still some radiation remaining in the internal circulation, the problem is not too big.
There shouldn't be any big problems if you continue to maintain medical check-ups, but don't be too close to your wife and children for a long time after you go home. "
After finishing speaking, Lear looked at Carter: "You don't have a big problem."
The radiation mainly comes from the radioactive dust in the Mukuju River deposit, which is slightly larger for ordinary people, but miraculously, Carter, who has the physique of a super soldier, metabolizes part of the radiation.
During the few days she was in a coma, the radiation around her decreased significantly, and the isotopes in her blood also changed.
In other words, although the super soldier may still be knocked out by a large dose of radiation, he can continue to metabolize radioactive materials as long as he survives.
Carter murmured to himself: “I didn’t expect that I would be in such a world when I woke up.
I thought that we had defended the freedom and security of the world, and that our descendants would create a beautiful world, a...
A world where children don’t have to live in fear and can choose who they want to be. "
"It's hard to say." Frank shrugged, "But in the United States, at least they have to worry about school shootings, and if they go to college, they have to worry about how to repay student loans, and finally the house, and how their next generation will face these. "
Carter was a little confused: she didn't quite understand Frank's words, but she understood the meaning.
Even without the current war, there are still many problems that hinder the arrival of this "better world".
"But first, what we need to worry about most is the current war. Listen, I need your help to expedite the transportation of something."
The African Union is at a disadvantage due to insufficient industrial capacity, which Lille cannot solve at once.
Then again, producing so much equipment in such a short period of time is already beyond the scope. If it weren't for brain-computer interfaces and skill chips that can greatly reduce the cost of manual training, these would be illusions.
Energy issues always have to be solved: Africa can no longer import oil from the outside world. Even if Lille can replace fossil energy with nuclear energy and clean energy, the amount of oil used as an industrial raw material is not small.
This site is not without oil. It is just used for industrialization. It can only be used as raw materials. In terms of energy, we can only think of other ways.
The material problem must be solved——
Carter and Frank looked at the table, which was a broken shield.
The original color of vibranium is a metallic luster similar to that of high-strength steel, but at this moment, some of the fragments are dyed with strange colors, like an ocean polluted by oil.
Carter noticed that the shield was incomplete.
“We’ve dug as hard as we can, but there’s still a small piece missing.
I need you to send this thing back as soon as possible. This may allow us to make some breakthroughs in materials science. "
Lille has many insights on energy issues, but there is no solution that can solve the problem in the long run——
Except nuclear fusion.
Lille has tried all nuclear fusion solutions, and has also achieved short-term positive output. However, the reason is that there is only one difficulty in controllable and miniaturized nuclear fusion:
Whatever the plan, no material can withstand the high temperatures and pressures produced by fusion for long.
And the universal material is here.
"Let's win this war."
Leal knocked on the blackboard, and the projector projected a ship with a special shape——
[Name: Secret transport ship "Vibranium"]
[Description: The size of a small yacht, with a built-in small reactor, enough to cross the ocean. 】
[Special layers will provide a radar invisibility effect, and in some cases the built-in guard structure will pop up to seal the hull structure. 】
[The shield is equipped with liquid crystal camouflage, which is taken from the design of the "Eclipse" full-body cybernetic body. It is slightly insufficient for the invisibility of large vehicles, but it is enough to conceal people's eyes and ears at long distances, especially causing great interference to satellite imaging. 】
[The ship is equipped with an experimental sea, land and air propulsion engine, but the floating propulsion effect is limited by the power system and is not recommended for long-term use. 】
[Note: Do not take off directly in the ocean, as it may cause the power system to overheat. 】
[Development Laboratory: Advanced Machinery Laboratory, Advanced Materials Laboratory]
[Developers: Leal, Dr. Otto, Dr. Toombs]
[Reward technology points: 1000]
[Current science and technology points: 15500]
"Now listen, this ship is a specially designed transport ship that can help you avoid radar and direct optical imaging equipment, in other words, a certain degree of stealth.
If necessary, it can even fly - theory can fly, I hope you don't use this feature. "
