In order to return to Bukhara as soon as possible, Kalki ran wildly in the dense forest.
When he ran to the edge of a cliff that was so steep that it was almost vertical, a huge Garuda flew across the sky, casting a huge, fast shadow on the forest sea. The wings of the Garuda blocked the bright sunlight.
, the crimson and golden feathers all over the body are radiant.
"Garuda!"
He shouted Garuda's name and jumped down from the cliff. Garuda quickly caught him on its back, then let Kalki stand on his back and flew up and down on the blue sea. p>
"Long time no see, my friend!" Kalki greeted it happily, and Garuda responded with a very sweet chirp.
Garuda has long been familiar with Kalki - the Garuda is an original creature on the planet Plato. The pure vegetarian Plato lives in harmony with all animals, so these creatures are not afraid of humans and can often be seen in the wild.
All kinds of rare and strange animals were running around. When Kalki was 12 years old, he rescued a Garuda that was injured by its storm wings. The Garuda thanked him for saving his life and took him flying everywhere from then on.
"Rush! Fly to the end of the universe!"
Kalki untied her bun and pulled back her hair tie, letting her long golden hair shine in the dusk sky. The rigid Spartan life could not extinguish the crazy passion in her blood.
The extremely dazzling golden sunlight of Plato's star covered his whole body, allowing him to swim between heaven and earth like a god, flying over the waves, rocks and forest tops.
Sometimes, Garuda would naughtily throw him down, let him hold the bird's claws, and then jump up again, swinging him back and forth in this way. The Garuda was more like a playmate than his mount;
Once when he was playing too crazy, Kalki accidentally fell down. Fortunately, there was thick grass below. He passed out on it for a long time before waking up. The golden-winged bird stayed with him all the time, covering him with its wings to avoid him.
Dehydrated by the intense sunlight.
This is almost all of Kalki’s daily life, so simple, clear, honest and full of friendship.
As Catullus[1] wrote: He is as happy as a god——
Gaia has two satellites, a huge transparent waning moon "Hecate" [2] rising slowly in the dark night, and a bright star shining like a diamond directly above.
Under this dreamy night sky, the vast and snow-white Artemis Mountains are towering and stretching, setting off a huge black building complex, like an ancient castle.
In a huge hall, a circle of sun wheels hangs high at the top, emitting streaks of golden light. The light and atmosphere inside are extremely strange and dark. A group of men in black wearing medieval monk costumes surround a round table.
A black shadow stood silently like a dummy, everything was plunged into darkness, with only a ray of light shining into the center.
There is a quantum projection 3D display area on the round table, which shows the internal video of the NGC 2547 base when it was destroyed. The processed video captured the moment when the "White Tiger" leader opened his mask. It was a standard to perfect picture of India-
The face of a European male can be described as "like a grid line". He is not particularly young anymore - there are shallow fine lines under the eyes and lips, chin and cheeks even after shaving.
, still has thick golden stubble, and soldiers who have been fighting on the front line all year round have the flavor of a mature man brought about by tempering. A pair of clear blue eyes shine with dazzling light, this light seems to come from an innocent boy, although with
He has a cold and noble expression, but this face still maintains a youthful luster, which is unforgettable at first sight. The face of Plato's knight with a highly pure bloodline is hard to find among the Gaians who have been mixed for 500 years.
, especially such a blond man with a handsome face like a god, with a sense of mystery, which makes people feel a sense of ecstasy and dizziness when they look directly at him.
"Our Lord."
Nearly a hundred believers present all knelt down.
"The savior from on high."
The leading priest, wearing a hooded floor-length robe, murmured to himself: "The great king came into the world as a human being, and he was actually Plato's great leader..."
Buildings belonging to the military densely occupy the best areas of Mangxing City. The General Staff Headquarters occupies a huge area, and the buildings have sharp edges and corners. The periphery is designed like a ridge with folding fan ribs gathering towards the center, which can take off and land various types of aircraft.
Business airship.
"Oops, it's too late, the next meeting will start soon!"
Lancer Xu, wearing a staff uniform, was standing on a mobile Frisbee, driving quickly along the corridor with a curtain wall on one side.
As soon as he came to report to Section 15 of the Second Bureau of the General Staff Headquarters, he was so busy that he was so busy. The most amazing thing was that although he was a well-versed in knowledge, he had no idea what he was busy with. There were many and complicated things, but he had no clue or efficiency. The Gaia government and military are an extremely bureaucratic organization. Once a special order is issued from above, the entire staff will keep spinning like a rapidly rotating axis, and the gears in the layers will show different speeds. He is
The grassroots staff at the lowest level must be transferred the fastest.
"Sorry, sorry, I'm a minute late. I borrowed it. I borrowed it."
When entering the conference hall, he could only pretend to bend down and touch his seat to avoid the eyes of others.
Many memories of the General Staff are in video conferences, and observers can join at any time. He once observed five meetings at the same time. But this meeting can only be attended and observed, and is not open to the public. It was difficult for him to apply for a position. "Ahem." Major Chen, the director of the 15th Division who presided over the meeting, is a descendant of Cantonese. Even though he put on the handsome officer uniform designed by the staff department, he still looked unattractive and had a bulging belly, which stretched the visual sense of the slim uniform and looked like a
A dark blue fat grasshopper.
"I just said that our time is tight this time and the task is heavy..." He glanced at the reckless new staff officer and continued.
Maybe it was because he didn't hear it at the beginning, and Major Chen was famous for his tendency to use official accents and always talk nonsense. Lancer felt awkward and uneasy. He turned to look at his colleagues, who all looked quite depressed. p>
The Gaian race is a mixed race, and the officers in the General Staff are also of all kinds. No one can outline a typical Gaian person in appearance.
After talking about various current situations that were almost complaints, Major Chen mentioned an order issued by the Supreme Joint Chiefs of Staff that has recently troubled the General Staff:
"The top wants to capture the Grand Leader of the White Tiger Knights, one of the 'Four Knights', and he must be captured alive."
Everyone seems at a loss. What's going on?
"This is all a decision made at once. What should we do? How to arrange this by capturing one alive? You must know that the White Tiger Knights are the elite among Plato's elites. There is no persimmon that can only pick the tough ones."
A soft chuckle came from below. Director Chen is a well-known person who likes to talk nonsense.
Director Chen then analyzed the current situation of the White Tiger Knights, and then put one hand on his waist. He was a little excited and spoke in confusion, without distinguishing between subject, predicate and guest:
"With them personally charging into battle, we can only capture one grand master every 70 years and kill one every 200 years. Moreover, in history, the grand master of the White Tiger Knights has never been captured by us.
The two we killed were both leaders of the White Tigers. Now we are asked to capture Plato’s strongest general within a month. Can we conjure it up for them?!"
"I emphasize one point: You have to be alive, not half-dead, it's best to be unscathed!"
"We are not an animal-control service!"
After the director finished complaining, everyone below burst into laughter.
A surprised expression appeared on Lancer's face: It's so strange. According to reliable information, the current Grand Master of the White Tiger Knights was promoted to this position three years ago. He has been fighting the Gaians for a long time and has never had any problems.
Military operations have targeted him. The order to capture him alive must be related to the matter at the NGC2547 base.
Genetic testing? Human cloning?? Cloning of 1 million white tiger leaders???
His imagination is racing in his head.
However, if this is the case, the next time you confirm that he is attacking, just kill him directly. The corpse can also complete these operations. What's the use of catching him alive? Knights who have risen to the rank of grand master are often loyal to the Platonic system. Historically,
The five captured grand captains were unwilling to stay in the Gaia army and eventually returned to Plato in exchange for prisoners of war.
The meeting ended with Director Chen’s various complaints.
When he came out of the conference room, Lancer Xu clicked on his watch, and a projection-type touch screen appeared. He could check the information on it. He saw the message Xuanji sent her. The content made him furious, so he decided to leave quickly.
.
Lancer stood on the flying disc and flew to the station of the suspended shuttle. Fortunately, in a place with serious bureaucracy, it is not difficult to find an excuse to leave work early.
The police station in Block 66 East, District H251, Mangxing City is a small police station, shaped like an orange and submerged in the layers of buildings.
At the door of the police station, Lancer and Xuanjikou almost started to quarrel.
"Is this the first time you've entered the police station?" He said in an almost reproachful tone.
"The 19th time." She replied coldly.
"As soon as I saw the message you sent that said: Put on your uniform and come to the police station to find me, I knew you were in trouble again. Miss, I'm still at work!"
Lancer continued to list the crimes: "Speed driving, drag racing... you will be sent to the police station every now and then."
"Is it my fault this time?" Xuanji looked angry.
Lancer was speechless for a moment, it was indeed not her fault this time.
Xuanji recovered from her injury and was busy working. Since she didn't want to go to the front line, she could only work as a part-time model.
The agency introduced her to a shooting job, but she didn't know that the photographer was a well-known pervert in the industry. When she was changing clothes, she felt like she was being peeped - Platonic people's intuition is often horribly accurate.
Later, when the photographer was taking the photo, he kept harassing her with words and gestures. If he wanted to be bolder, he would pull her clothes and breast pads. Finally, when she couldn't help but warn him, this obscene man wearing glasses
The photographer actually scolded her:
"Everyone in this business is a bitch, why are you pretending to be so pretentious!"
Xuanji, who had an inherently irritable personality, felt her blood surge and she slapped the opponent with lightning speed in anger.
This industry pervert never dreamed that the beautiful model he was facing was actually a master of martial arts. He was caught off guard and slapped hard in the face. He lost his center of gravity and accidentally hit his head on the wall nearby. He fainted on the spot.
The terrified assistants immediately called the police. In the end, Xuanji had no choice but to be taken to the police station to state what happened, and the first scene happened.
"Okay, okay, don't be angry, I'll treat you to dinner."
Lancer's tone softened. In fact, he didn't dare to be really angry with her.
The two of them could only walk silently on the street. East 66 Block is a place with poor public security. The sky has just started to get dark, and there are many fireworks on both sides of the street. Women are busy going to work. It is very close to the red light district, and there are many fireworks.
The prostitutes rent a house here, and the people walking back and forth are low-income people from the bottom of society. These people are of different ethnicities, but they all look at Lancer and Xuanji. In the war years, young people wearing military uniforms and beautiful
The girls are a sight to behold when they walk together, not to mention that Xuanji's makeup hasn't even had time to be removed, and she looks extremely beautiful in the light and shadow.
They walked across a pedestrian bridge. In the lower-class neighborhoods of Mangxing City with poor infrastructure, the old open bridges were still preserved. As they walked on it, they saw tall buildings in the distance, the skyline becoming so narrow, and the execution
The official hovercars were scattered like small black dots, and the satellite "Hecate" slowly rose in the black night sky, with a deserted and strange look.
"I feel like I don't belong here." Xuanji broke the silence. With sad eyes, she looked at "Hecate" slowly rising from the city. Manxing City is huge, noisy, chaotic, and so...
It's something that people can't understand, and it can't even give her the slightest sense of belonging.
"Stop talking about you, even I feel like I don't belong here." Lancer began to have a sense of humor again.
"Sometimes, I hate my parents. Why don't you stay in Plato? Why did you bring me here?"
"Hey, they can live a prosperous and wealthy life here. Besides, what's so good about Plato?"
"Compared to this place, it's like the Garden of Eden."
"This is your imagination. The Platonists are a group of tool people." Lancer quickly adopted the propaganda method, "Utopia is destined to fail."
"I really hate it..." He could not forget the bright light in Xuanji's eyes at this moment, just like a flame, "You don't know how difficult my life is."
If she were a star, Xuanji must be red. Her soul is beautiful, dangerous, mysterious and elusive.
Only when she was with him - Lancer could not forget the scene that was deeply engraved in her mind. Her aura became so calm and gentle.
