Tomorrow's Ark, the journey of hardcore and ruthless people

The oak door slammed shut behind the three men.Pavel suddenly spoke: "*Usas expletive*! That silly Baitian gave up the position of boss to her because of her prominent family background. She really thought she could tell the truth!"

The other two people were silent, neither supporting nor opposing.

**

The auditorium of Peterheim Senior High School is now a place that no one cares about.Only at night do people get in here to sleep.You must know that there are almost no resources here, and it is easy to catch fire, so it is not suitable as a stronghold.Most of the people here could not squeeze into the more comfortable dormitory buildings, nor could they enter the second-class teaching buildings and administrative buildings, so they could only huddle here, in the lobby or in a small room.Such people are almost at the bottom of the food chain in the school today, basically harmless.

At four o'clock in the afternoon, people had already started lying on the chairs in the hall of the auditorium.However, Winter's appearance broke the silence.

The sharp-eyed people greeted each other, pointing to the red highlighter who was carrying a steel pipe: "Look! General Winter! General Winter is here!"

This word is as scary as mineral sickness in the minds of Chernobog students.Many people jumped up quickly and stared at the Peter Heim sister holding the steel pipe.

What could be more terrifying than her?The answer is that the second sister is also here.

"The one in the back, that's General Xia!"

"The two of them seem to be in the same gang? Tsk, they hang out together, any gang will have to tremble twice..."

While people were chattering, Lin Dong jumped onto the stage and knocked on the podium with a steel pipe, and everyone immediately fell silent.Hong Jianran's battle-crying voice echoed in the hall: "Before eight o'clock tonight, the auditorium hall was requisitioned by us! Those who want to stay in the meeting come and help clean it, and those who don't want to have the meeting, get out!"

Lie Xia gritted her teeth and reminded in a low voice: "You are not afraid of scaring everyone out, just the two of us cleaning such a big place."

However, no one dared to neglect General Winter and General Xia at the same time, and the students "scrambled" to find brooms and dustpans.

Ten minutes later, Truth and Wika walked in side by side, and slightly nodded to Lingdong who had just swept the last row.Then he stood at the gate, ready to guide the visitors to sit down.

After a slight pause, Wika quietly moved towards Winter: "Uh, General Dong. That Mei, Mei..."

"Mephisto." Lin Dong calmly reminded.

Wicca said: "...That's the name anyway. He's definitely not Ursus."

Truth calmly replied: "There are many other races in the country of Ursus. He is a typical Liboli and may be mixed with other races. But this is normal. What I care about more is that that guy is not simple."

Lin Dong shrank his shoulders: "Of course, I don't have the ability to scare the military and police officers of Chernobog like that 'red team'."

While chatting, looking at the auditorium, many people have already come in twos and threes.Lie Xia walked up to Lin Dong and pointed: "There are quite a few here. These are from the Peterheim Co-Prosperity Association, and those are from the Chernobog Legion. The new arrivals are from the Eastern Front... ..."

"You should go and tell the truth, she's arranging the seats."

But Lin Dong worried too much.The truth guides the representatives of the big gangs to sit forward and the representatives of the small gangs to sit back.

Lin Dong pouted.Instead, Lie Xia patted her on the shoulder and complained excitedly: "Aha, those guys have good eyesight, none of the people they pick is simple..."

There was a sudden commotion at the main entrance of the hall, and everyone cast their gazes over, and saw a head of gorgeous long white hair, red and blue eyes of different colors, and that beautiful school uniform...There is no doubt that, These are the people who occupy the cafeteria in No. [-] Middle School.Although there are a few nobles in the venue, the only ones who can still look like a tiger in this kind of place are the group of robbers who occupy the cafeteria.

"The first-class garbage nesting in the cafeteria!" Everyone from the representatives of the big gangs to the lonely homeless was filled with righteous indignation, and directly surrounded him, swearing endlessly.Someone even rushed forward to beat up the noble lady.But she just raised her hand gently and pushed the man away.

Facing the angry crowd, she raised her voice and asked loudly, "Is this how you treat your guests?"

The attack was attempted, and the person who found this guy didn't seem easy to provoke cursed: "Damn, you stole half of our rations, and you still want us to be polite?!"

The embarrassment on the female classmate's face flashed, and then she returned to normal: "Oh? With all due respect, in the current situation of this school, robbery is probably not a big deal, right?

Big gangs attack small gangs, and small gangs attack loners, compared to the fact that we even allow civilians to work for us in exchange for food rations. "

"And you just sit back and enjoy what you get?" another scolded.

"We are responsible for protecting the cafeteria, going out to find food, counting and distributing daily food quota..."

Another round of noise rang out: "Shameless!"

"shameless!"

"Suka is not listed!"

Unable to see it any longer, Lin Dong picked up the steel pipe and turned over the podium, knocking on the ground and yelling, "Get out of here for a fight! We're here to discuss issues! Anyone who makes trouble and causes trouble will have trouble with me!"

After General Dong said so, the crowd had no choice but to disperse angrily.Natalia, who was almost disgusted by her thick skin, wanted to thank Lin Dong, but the latter snorted and walked away, saying as she walked, "Stop talking nonsense, go and sit in the first row."

Natalia scanned the room and thought: It seems that it is necessary to come, otherwise they might have agreed to the decision to attack us.But one thing is very strange, who on earth called them together?That blue-haired monocle on the podium?Why are Generals Winter and General Xia willing to listen to her command?

Just as she overturned her judgment, Natalia heard brisk footsteps coming from the podium.A strange young man wearing a white coat under a black coat appeared on the podium.

People whispered: "He's not Ursus, he looks like Riboli?"

"Is there such a man in Peterheim?"

The man simply grabbed the microphone and interrupted the whispers: "Guys, I'm glad you're here for this meeting. Yes, I'm the convener of this meeting, and you can call me Mephisto." "

Someone in the audience shouted directly: "Stop being a fool, there is no one like you in Peterheim, who are you? Which school is the No. [-] Middle School?"

"No, I'm a soldier." Mephisto replied with a smile.

There was an uproar.Some people have jumped up: "What do you mean by the military? Lock us here and separate us from our relatives. We are not allowed to go home, we are not allowed to communicate, and we are not even given food!"

Mephisto continued to smile: "No, no, students, don't get me wrong, I mean, we are the special forces of the Terra People's Guard loyal to the integration movement. Do you understand? We are red elements, red bandits. "

The audience fell into a deathly silence.

Chapter 51 I'll show you my brains!

Mephisto had planned not to appear in person.He is not Ursus, and he is not a middle school student.These students have everything, and if some small report lovers go out to inform the Chernobog defenders, they will be in big trouble.

Even without such informers, things would still be troublesome.The purpose of calling in Winter and Liexia was to influence the meeting, but it was useless to his own goals.Even the few people I found are not very reliable: Lin Dong, a trainee underground worker, has hardly passed any tests, and contacted her because there were almost no informants in Peterheim Middle School; Lie Xia was entirely for Rin Winter is coming; Truth and Wicca are lifesavers, but the latter doesn't seem to be very reliable.

And the people in the audience represent a group that is thousands of times more complex than these few girls. If you want to persuade them to focus on one thing, it's useless to look for Black Snake, so let's look for Yuri.

However, if the methods used are appropriate, this job is not impossible.Moreover, letting others take risks in the public eye while you hide behind the scenes will obviously affect everyone's perception of you and your subsequent work.

The most important thing is that Mephisto thinks that this group of bear girls is at best a group fighter at best, and this high school student is not from the east country next door, so he may still have to rely on himself and his comrades in case of emergencies.So he went up in person, and stunned the students at the beginning.

This is not finished.

"We are the special armed forces of the Chernobog underground organization of the integration movement. In this identity, everyone is familiar with our code name - we are the 'red team'."

The audience was in an uproar again.Then there was silence as Mephistopheles rapped on the table.

Someone suddenly shouted: "Surrender! Outside the wall is a regiment of Imperial Army!"

There was a playful light in Mephisto's golden eyes:

"Since entering Chernobog, we haven't done anything major. At first, we just attacked the imperial military police and the Okrana action team on the street in broad daylight, and let the imperial soldiers, police and spies die in our own city. On the streets, by the way, rescued the comrades who were arrested.

"Later, we started to do slightly more difficult things, such as beating the defecting traitors to death at the Oklana branch gate of Chernobog; Mr. Lu used his imagination to poison the rebels who managed to escape pursuit in the hospital.

"As for your underworld organizations, we have also dealt with them. We killed two main bosses and forty thugs in the same night, and wiped out nine casinos, twelve smoke dens and four brothels. 'Blood hands' That's how Petrovich was pissed off. Compared with those real gangsters, you little brats still have rookie eggshells on their heads! Count on those two guys with a gun, and one-third of the gun One is that the front-loading militia wiped us out? Go ahead and dream!"

A brief silence lasted for a moment.Since the comparison of strength is not optimistic, someone chose morality: "You bastards, get out of our city!"

Mephisto sneered: "Who are 'you'? Who are 'us'? Throughout Chernoborg, are there still few workers, citizens, and students joining underground organizations? Are there still few joining pickets? Choose to help Are we still short?

"Dear lord, the poor peasants who earned five rubles a year on the northwest tundra and were blown away by tax collectors and pickets and four and a half poor peasants will die; the serfs in the northern wilderness who have more than a dozen families sleeping in the grass huts and muddy fields will die; Chernobyl Citizens and workers in Berg whose annual income cannot afford your school uniform have to support their families—so, the reunification movement has grown, the tribal army has a steady stream of fighters, and our comrades are everywhere. You can say 'disobedience' Your Majesty', 'Being a pariah without duty' and all that shit, but if you really say that—"

With a bang, Mephisto slammed his pistol on the table: "I'll let you see your brains, 'Master'."

The little noble son opened his mouth, but said nothing.

Natalia said suddenly: "It sounds like you don't like us, so why are you still negotiating with us?"

Mephisto's smile appeared a little more sincere: "You are very brave, you went to the meeting alone before, and now you dare to ask the key point.

"Honestly speaking, in my opinion, it may be unjust to shoot all of you here. If you shoot half of them randomly, a large number of people will go unpunished. But I can't do this, because I have received orders, and the Tribunal has iron discipline! Empire 'Expulsion' is a familiar path; we can't do it! Even you, according to the ideology and policy guidelines of the integration movement, can be united with. If you are a law-abiding citizen under the rule of the republic, you should also be protected by the law.

"Since the integration movement regards itself as the legitimate government of Ursus, it must protect the majority of people in Ursas. For this reason, we will strictly limit the use of heavy firepower during the siege, and minimize civilian casualties and collateral losses. There are I have said it many times to many people. Now, I will say it again to everyone here: Our mission is to keep as many people alive as possible."

The venue was silent again, but the atmosphere was obviously much more relaxed.

"It should be said that it is difficult for anyone to put you in this school. If you are squatting in your own home, the possibility of being affected by a large number of people in the battle is relatively less; but you are in the school. , which makes you a large meat shield for the imperial army in the face of our army's long-range firepower."

Everyone was dumbfounded, and this kind of statement that played a role in sowing discord made everyone feel wary.After a while, someone asked: "Do you really have that ability?"

Mephisto was categorical: "Once the siege begins, our army's artillery shells will directly hit the core tower, the city government and the headquarters of the Third Army."

The people in the audience looked at each other and whispered to each other in low voices until a dull roar seemed to be heard in the distance.Everyone was silent for a moment and turned to look in that direction.Someone was muttering to themselves: "That's the direction to the north of the city..."

boom!

Boom!

Boom boom boom!

The sound of the explosion was still loud across the building. The shock almost knocked everyone off their seats, and the glass of the building chattered amid the explosion.There was a lot of chaos in the audience, but Mephisto remained silent.

After a few rounds of shelling, there was no movement, and the crowd huddled under the chairs gradually calmed down.Someone angrily shouted at Mephisto: "Asshole, is this a good thing you did?!"

Mephisto replied politely: "Yes, the artillery of our siege force is firing."

"What the hell do you call such a big movement a 'test firing'?!"

"Otherwise? We only use medium-caliber artillery in the face of the moving city. After two or three rounds, the fire ceases. Of course, it is a test fire."

The students looked at each other in blank dismay:

Is there such a big movement in "medium caliber" and "two or three rounds"?

The world is so crazy!

Mephistopheles said calmly: "Let me put it more plainly, fellow students, the Third Army really has no energy or resources to take care of you. They want to use 12 to be your grandfather and those younger than you." New recruits to fight against seven militia armies armed to the teeth.

"So you little bear cubs who had a party in the city hall square were directly packed into a few places and imprisoned. The Third Army didn't want to waste any resources on you. Those who guarded you were those who were responsible for the local streets. Guarding militia; they won't even give you food!

"Some of you think you have bargaining chips, and you are nothing more than fighting for your parents. But I tell you, you don't have bargaining chips. The Third Army can't control so much. If they can't hold Chernobog, then of course there is no need to worry Revenge by your noble parents; if they managed to hold Chernobog, the nobles would be less likely to do anything to the heroes who defended Chernobog.

"So, why not throw you troublemakers into a school very close to a military center to fend for yourself, and let the red-headed aircraft and cannons outside the city use them as a deterrent?"

Mephisto's last words were lost in the growing din.The impulsive high school students have already started to scold those damned Qiu Ba.

Mephisto just scanned the boiling crowd calmly, then grabbed the pistol on the podium and opened fire.Even if it's just a pistol, the noise far exceeds people's voices.Now his gun was not equipped with a silencer, and the noise of the entire venue was covered by this gun, leaving only screams one after another.

Mephisto jumped off the podium, walked slowly to the left side of the first row, looked at the student who was shot in the shoulder blade and fell to the ground twitching. Raise it above your head and show it to the audience.

"There are fifty special forces of the Tribunal Army lurking in this school! If anyone wants to try, he can die! Come and bandage him!"

People didn't know at first who Mephisto was asking to bandage, but immediately they knew:

The Sarkaz fighters have a soft spot for the "human-wolf suit" and Kazdel's own MG42 general-purpose machine gun.Red lights flashed on the two eyepiece lenses of their breathing masks, and the highest level of protective equipment was attached to the lightweight powered exoskeleton, including helmets, masks, shoulder armor, arm guards, breastplate, plastron, greaves, and boots. Alloy and leather wrap the whole body.The most critical breastplate and the front of the helmet are even double-layer armor.

It only takes two machine gunners to appear from behind the curtains on the left and right sides of the podium, even if the machine guns are not raised to aim at the audience, the extremely deterrent appearance can make the audience breathless.And when red team members with different equipment but wearing powered exoskeletons appeared on the podium, side door, main door, and observation deck on the second floor, the students felt even more like a pack of wolves.

The hygienist wearing a low-visibility red cross rushed over and provided emergency treatment to the stupid unfortunate guy.As he stood up, Mephisto waved his hand, and the special forces team members disappeared as quickly as they appeared.

"In short, the situation is like this. If you don't want to be blown into bear steaks under the artillery fire of the siege, then you should stay away from this school."

As soon as the special forces withdrew, the atmosphere in the venue eased up again.An aristocratic student replied: "This is the fate of inferior people, we will not be so unlucky."
