The Executor of the Heavens: Beginning with the Watch Dogs

Chapter 454: A Few Years Fly (2)

Of course, not only Xie Yuan and the new XCOM have undergone tremendous changes, but suspicious allies and enemies have also improved a lot.

Under the current global situation, mutants occupy major cities around the world, sitting on huge resources, population, and large interstellar ports that constantly maintain throughput.

On the surface, the upper echelons of the rebel army accepted the control of the mutants, but they were still secretly supporting and expanding the rebel army's strength in the vast underdeveloped areas.

On weekdays, they hide their strengths and bide their time, dormant and wait for the opportunity. Once information is obtained or the mutants show their weaknesses, they wait for the opportunity to move and kill them with one move.

And the existence of Xcom is the sharpest blade of the rebels.Once the mutant army was attracted most of the attention of the rebels, it immediately stabbed it hard at an unimaginable throat!
But other than that, the mutants and the Rebels actually live in peace... At least sometimes you feel that the world is very peaceful.

But not everyone is used to tranquility, and not all organizations are either changing or reversing. At least today in 2028, three regional ruling organizations have gradually emerged around the world.

They're called Reapers, Templars, and Partisans/Skirmishers.

Because of Ada, the "Reaper" is an elite anti-alien corps that Xie Yuan knows best, and they remind Xie Yuan of the Spartan Legion back then.

Ah, speaking of the Spartan Legion, Xie Yuan suddenly thought of Miller, and then his daughter, Anna... Alas, I will go back one day.

Closer to home, Grim Reaper was founded by a Russian-born Alaskan named Konstantin Warlikov, whose followers called him "Wolker."

When the iron heels of aliens stepped into Alaska for the first time in 2014, Volker, who was only 21 years old, stepped forward and organized many suicide attacks against aliens.

Due to the remote location of East Volga, Volker's small faction avoided the fate of being strangled in the cradle.The aliens are not interested in Alaska's wild and cold wilderness all year round. Even the current mutant government still classifies it as "wasteland".This allowed the fledgling Volker to gain plenty of breathing room, and he continued to hone his leadership skills in battle after battle, explored information about the alien army, and strengthened his own power.

Now, Volker's troops have developed into the now-famous "Reaper". After ten years of struggle, the entire resistance forces in North America have been brought under Volker's leadership.Subsequently, Reaper's base camp was also relocated from the ice and snow in Alaska to what is now New Samara, Colorado.

Reapers are good at guerrilla warfare, and every Reaper's military ability is at least the level of a precision shooter.

At the same time, the high-level death fighters are also proficient in an advanced technique of concealment. If the concealment is done properly, even their homemade specialty—the Victor rifle can't be discovered by the enemy even if they shoot it several times.

The person Xie Yuan is most familiar with in the Grim Reaper is Ada. This female spy who also appeared in this world with Xie Yuan is now one of the oldest veterans following Volker, with the rank of lieutenant colonel.

After 10 years of training, Ada has already practiced Dragon Elephant Prajna Kung Fu to the second level. This is the first guy Xie Yuan has ever seen who practiced slower than him, hahahaha!
However, the other Eight Parts Vajra Longevity Kungfu, this girl's cultivation level is really not low, combined with her cover ability and good shooting skills, she is honored as the "Snow Wolf" Lieutenant Colonel.

I don't know much about the other two Xie Yuan. The stragglers are okay. They were created by a mutant named Betos—maybe it was the one Xie Yuan possessed back then, but it might not be.

How mutants came to be remains one of the greatest unsolved mysteries of humanity right now.

Some people say that mutants are created out of thin air. First, countless identical clones are created from a large tank of DNA culture fluid, and then these identical people are transformed into different types of mutant fighters through genetic modification surgery.

Another theory is that mutants are transformed from humans. Aliens first tricked some human volunteers, then brainwashed these people and threw them into a biochemical dish, and then transplanted alien DNA into them. in the body.According to this version, the transplant of alien DNA would cause horrific changes in the body of the volunteers. One by one, the cells in the body would become alien-like, accompanied by great pain. With the transformation of the week, humans become mutants.

No one knows which one it is, and considering the close relationship between the stragglers and the mutants, the stragglers are full of mutual distrust even internally. For the same reason, other Rebel factions treat them even more. Full of suspicion, even hostility.

This also caused the stragglers to do things their own way.

But over the past ten years, the stragglers have evolved into countless small factions distributed in every corner of the earth, and the cultural customs of these factions have also developed very differently, each with its own characteristics.

Their main weapons are Kal-7-style bullpup rifles, submachine guns, shotguns, and gunpowder-powered wrist blades that can be thrown and sent and received freely.

The stragglers hide in the wilderness and treat mutants very cruelly—even when recruiting new recruits, they use electromagnetic needles to insert them directly into the back of their heads. Once the chips in the back of their heads are fused, they will see if they can continue to survive.

To be alive is to be a new straggler, but to die...that can be treated as dead.

These stragglers could be seen and found anyway, otherwise the rebels wouldn't say they just didn't trust him, but it didn't mean they couldn't be found.

The traces of the Templars are a bit elusive like a dragon wagging its tail-it can be said that to find them, they have to rely on psionic detection radar.

They have mastered more interesting and more penetrating psychic killing skills than high priests - psychic slash and psychic block.

It is said—according to John Bradford's speculation, that the leader of the Templar Knights might be one of the subjects who volunteered to be psychic experimenters in Xcom back then, and the later participants all came from alien secrets The subject of the arranged psionic laboratory.

But the truth is no longer important. They have become an independent organization with a very powerful lethality capability, and they are already a powerful organization that cannot be ignored in Oceania in the southern hemisphere.

One of the members of the Templars once worked with XCOM, but the location of the headquarters and the traces of the leader are still secretive.

Reaper, Skirmishers, and Knights Templar, these three are non-ideological semi-military resistance organizations in the name of individuals other than the rebel army formed by the country's shadow government.

Organizations that exist because of the pressure of foreign enemies to hold together for warmth, will they collapse once the external pressure is lost?

Unknown, but at this moment they are potential help that can be won and drawn, and John has always wanted to unite them.

However, the rebel army has strong support, and the mutant regime also has killer moves. The "elders" seem to have cultivated three super mutant soldiers, who call themselves "the chosen ones."

Among the three super mutant soldiers, one is a melee master named "Assassin", one is a top sniper named "Hunter" and one is an advanced psionic user named "Warlock".

In recent years, they seem to have done a lot of evil, repeatedly using raid missions and sabotage missions to offset the offensive posture of the rebels.

And out of fanatical worship of the elders, they seem to have carried out bottomless killing of the wild residents who disobeyed the aliens, and even took pleasure in it!

Xie Yuan really wanted to punish the three of them, but was forcibly held back by the East Asia Command and John Bradford.

The reason is that there are more important tasks for Xie Yuan to undertake, and there are priorities, and they will be processed slowly after the advance task is completed.

For example, one of the missions is to visit Volker with John.

It just so happened that one of their clusters had just been completely wiped out by the "hunters" - leaving only one prisoner.

With such an arrogant personality, Xie Yuan's anger and murderous intent became even worse.

I really hope that this so-called "commander" is really useful, otherwise Xie Yuan will really be disappointed in XCOM.
