Eh? Do you also want to try the iron fist of the humanoid girl?

Since the jamming signal sent is stronger than the radar wave, the forwarded deceptive jamming signal hijacks the radar range tracking circuit, thus forcing the radar into a state of target reacquisition.

The agent of the Division of Homeland Security was surprised to find that the enemy marked by the ISAC pulse passed through the wall in front of him and finally disappeared from his sight.

How can a person walk through a wall? Is there a bug in Earth Online? Or is The Matrix the great prophecy of the 21st century?

The discovery of the century! The agent was suddenly overwhelmed by the frenzy of inspiration and couldn’t calm down for a long time.

So, he asked:

"ISAC, is there something wrong with the AR glasses?"

"No, sir. ISAC pulse system is normal."

"The marked target disappeared. Did you see it?" He checked his equipment and asked the Department of Land Security's intelligent AI system: "The person also left in the opposite direction."

"Yes, ISAC saw it... System self-check completed. The log records show that the pulse receiver received a large number of deception signals 30 seconds ago. The target is suspected to have installed an ECM electronic countermeasure system."

"You're kidding me, right? Hahaha, ISAC you're getting smarter and smarter."

"No, sir."

ISAC maintained its calm and cool tone while presenting its analysis results in a powerful and clear voice.

Judging from the size of the signal, it should be a human target, which is consistent with what the agents saw.

Analyzing the strength of the received feedback signal, it should be a military fighter jet. After a rough analysis, ISAC concluded that the target's electronic countermeasure capability is comparable to the AN/ALQ-257 Viper electronic countermeasure system.

Why did an F-16 fighter jet turn into a female fighter jet and come to New York? The agent closed his eyes and took a deep breath. After calming down, he asked the smart assistant:

"With our current technology, can we create a compact electronic jamming system?"

"50-50, either is possible."

……

When Raphael noticed that the electronic countermeasure module was activated, he immediately realized that there was a bystander peeping, so he turned and rushed into the alley to hide.

She constructed a simple shelter using debris from the alley and began scanning the area for the source of the signal.

A few minutes passed without any discovery. Switching to thermal imaging, apart from the white light of the environment, no signs of any black, high-temperature objects moving were seen.

Although she detected no immediate danger from humans, she was aware that there were others in the city that could threaten her.

……

"Is this your analytical answer, ISAC?"

"Yes, based on probability."

The highly intelligent artificial AI replied: "The technology of the National Land Strategy Bureau is beyond the level of the times, but it cannot be ruled out that other agencies and forces have obtained the same level of equipment from another line."

If this is the case, the ensuing battle will be very dangerous.

As an intelligent analysis system relied upon by agents, ISAC can provide key services for agents operating on the battlefield, including communications, analysis, remote data collection/retrieval, weather information, and interaction with other intelligent equipment.

Although the pulse detection system is equipped on the agents, the classification and analysis of the detection data are all completed by ISAC.

This detection system is more important than any other equipment provided by the Strategic Bureau. After all, whoever has intelligence has advantage, and agents can make targeted deployments based on the enemy's dynamics.

The advantage is like a snowball, constantly expanding and eventually crushing the enemy.

On the second day of deployment to New York, he was horrified to discover that some people were immune to pulse scans, and ISAC analyzed the combat logs and came to an absurd but unbelievable conclusion.

Fortunately, at least for now, there is only one guy who has the ability to be immune to scanning.

Moreover, other functions of ISAC were not affected, such as scanning and analyzing the designated scene, classifying and analyzing the residual information obtained, and then completing the scene reconstruction...

Other functions such as forwarding warnings and updates, identifying human targets or making contact through biometric markers, and setting path checkpoints for targets are still functioning normally.

To be honest, this is not ISAC's problem as there is no malfunction in its operation.

ISAC is basically a souped-up version of CALO (Cognitive Assistant for Self-Learning Organization), but the latter was developed by the Pentagon's Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (ARPA).

Each agent is connected through his or her ISAC assistant terminal to the Strategic Homeland Data Network, the agency's computer network that relays data through a series of dedicated communications satellites in orbit.

This complex network system tracks and records every encounter of every Strategic Bureau agent and reconstructs virtual scenes based on on-site data, thereby conducting more informed multi-level analysis.

For an Agent out in the field, one of the most important functions the network provides is the ability to instantly distinguish between friendly and enemy units during battlefield encounters.

Since ancient times, identifying friend or foe has been a difficult problem faced by all military units.

ISAC pulls data from its databases to generate a nearly perfect color-coded IFF system, and the scanned unit's affiliation and status is then displayed directly on the HUD of the agent's enhanced vision contact lenses.

The agent was extremely shocked when he discovered that someone was able to send interference signals in the opposite direction even though his ISAC was not disconnected from the Internet.

Out of concern, he asked ISAC to create a special file for this person, mark him as a B+ level threat, and upload it to the entire agent network.

Afterwards, he applied to upgrade Raphael's threat level to A-, and the reason for the change was that the other party was equipped with a standard assault rifle with a caliber of 6.8x51mm and his combat skills were excellent.

He also attached a mobile phone video as proof, which showed Raphael's instant counterattack, ruthless and efficient, without wasting a single bullet.

Soon, this newly created file was viewed and several messages were added.

He took a quick look and found that it was basically just water with no nutritional value.

New York is in such a mess, and these bastards are still in the mood to spam online. Can't they provide some useful information? The cybersecurity director of the Division of Homeland Security should fucking shut down this shitty comment section...

He turned around and looked in the direction the gunman left, replaying the scene of the AR-tagged image passing through the wall and leaving. It felt really fucked up.

Chapter 13 Gala - Gala - (Please vote and support)

The rest of the journey was less eventful.

Raphael took the initiative to avoid those people with orange halos on their arms, shoulder bags, and wrists. Although they seemed to be helping ordinary citizens who were scavenging, the scan not long ago made her feel very disgusted.

She roughly guessed the identities of these people. They were agents activated in accordance with the agreement after the President announced that Executive Order No. 51 would take effect.

They are seen as the last firewall built and operated in a special way after all systems collapse.

At least that's what Captain Willis said in the agreed liaison, and he added:

"…Agents are carefully selected from all walks of life and must go through a rigorous vetting process. Once they successfully pass, they will receive rigorous training from top-level Strategic Bureau agents. But this training is not all, the Strategic Bureau also equips agents with weapons and equipment and artificial intelligence that are far better than those of army soldiers."

All he knew were information that was automatically disclosed after the president signed the executive order. However, he thought it necessary to tell the lieutenant who was working alone in the epidemic area.

This was not out of some hidden emotion, Willis argued in his heart.

After thanking him, Raphael took out his satellite phone, called the boss of this "exploration" mission, and directly asked for the agent's information.

In less than 5 minutes, Raphael received a large amount of data via the satellite link.

After the activation of Order No. 51, the agents of the Strategic Bureau will enter the activation process. After the official launch, all agents who receive the order will only have 2 hours to report to the designated assembly point.

The agents spent months preparing for this moment as part of their training.

The key is to be prepared both physically and mentally in such a short period of time. One of the most important preparations is the maintenance of the Strategic Bureau's emergency backpack.

The carry-on backpack must contain weapons and basic supplies to support at least 72 hours of field operations.

Water, food, medical supplies, extra spare ammunition, protective gear, tools, gas masks, emergency warm folding blankets, and other equipment required for the mission.

The ability of an agent depends on the intensity of training and preparation time. The ISAC intelligent assistant will guide them to adjust their equipment according to their personal needs and specialties.

The emergency backpack is the lifeblood of an agent and must be carried at all times.

For example, instead of carrying water, agents use water purification tablets or bottles so they don't add the extra weight of bottled water.

Also as part of their training, agents search for any materials that can help them repair or upgrade their weapons and equipment while out in the field, such as wire, electrical tape, electronic parts, and fabric.

If necessary, they will selectively requisition weapons and equipment from abandoned shopping malls, basically anything that MacGyver, the protagonist of the TV series "MacGyver", who is good at solving problems with various props, would find useful.

One of the most important things in a backpack is medical and first aid supplies. Once an agent successfully passes the vetting process, they are immediately given a series of vaccinations.

After browsing through it, Raphael found a lot of descriptions like this, but not a single word about the agents' command structure.

In short, no matter what the reason for the appearance of this group of people, they have only two purposes: to attack the enemy and to withstand the enemy's attack.

The boss did not provide the contact information of the Strategic Bureau, which can only mean one thing: he did not have or did not want to provide it. Considering that he could get a legal military officer identity, he definitely did not want to provide it.

It doesn’t matter if you don’t provide it. People always need social interaction.

Maybe after a few more fights, they would develop feelings for each other. But no matter what, she just wanted to raise her middle finger to her boss and say in a clear voice, "Fuck you."

Half an hour later, she received and processed all the data, and stood outside the blockade wall, feeling dissatisfied with her boss, the Homeland Security Agency, and the agents.

The new obstacle is that I can’t believe that the army’s engineering corps is so efficient.

Only 96 hours have passed and a separation wall has been built here.

The Empire State Building is right before our eyes. What should we do next? How should we plan?

After a few days, I didn't accomplish anything, but instead I saw a lot of hell on earth.

This afternoon seems to be a bad day.

Who created this dust? The dust rose with the wind, and Raphael grimaced at the noise.

Gala--Gala--Gala--

The closer you get to the inner isolation area, the more frequently the counter in the 3-Day backpack starts to buzz.

The full name of this thing is "Geiger-Müller counter". As long as high-speed particles are shot into the metal tube inside the instrument, the energy carried by the particles will cause the gas in the tube to ionize and conduct electricity, resulting in rapid gas discharge between the filament and the tube wall, thereby outputting a pulse current signal.

“…Holy-Shit!”

Raphael's mental space was suddenly filled with capital question marks.

Was New York hit by a dirty bomb or a nuclear power plant leak?

She took out the counter and adjusted the reading range. She would not make the same mistake that the deputy chief engineer of Chernobyl made that night, and after seeing the number on the limit display, she switched to a less precise range but one that had enough detection range.

"Damn it, why!"

The scene that appeared before her eyes was very funny. In the alley, on the road, and on the roof of the van, there were fat white birds lying here and there.

It looked the same as it did when it was alive. It should have appeared after the explosion, but people were afraid of the virus and the gunfight, so it didn't attract any attention at all.

After the pigeons died, other birds followed, and then other small animals commonly seen in cities...

It can be said that people and organisms that have inhaled radioactive dust have been labeled as physiological abnormalities and have become a threat to human's original genetic genes.

One day in the future, he or it will disappear into history.

In fact, this damn radiation is far more harmful than the high-energy rays released by conventional nuclear weapons and reactors.

In just a few minutes of standing there, Raphael had already spotted hundreds of people passing by. Perhaps it was because although New York was in ruins, it was still a familiar home, a place that made people nostalgic.

What’s more possible is that… this place is gradually becoming a “green zone” where the greenback virus cannot survive.

Regardless, thousands of people are locked down on this tiny island, most of them holed up in cities, the better to avoid the virus and the fierce mobs.

These people are relatively normal-minded.

In addition to them, there are occasionally some special individuals living in those abandoned high-rise buildings.

Raphael fastened the counter to the waistband, protecting it with a compartment for the pistol magazine.

"Now that we're here, let's find a way to get in and take a look."

She decided not to wait any longer, so she climbed onto the bus lying on the side of the road and flew over the barbed wire fence in the astonished eyes of the passing scavengers.

Chapter 14: The Purifier

As the chaotic streets in the heavily polluted area were about to freeze, Bertrand Philippe led three agents from the "North American Gray Wolf" team to make a final attempt near the Empire State Building.

One of them is a young man named Brian Quinn Jr., who has always been Bertrand's focus. Quinn is 25 years old. When he first reported to the team, Bertrand saw that he had some personality problems.

At Fort Drum, Quinn failed to attend the assembly at 6: one morning, so Bertrand kicked in his door.

"What's up, Chief?" Quinn asked sleepily.

"What the hell is wrong with you? You didn't attend the assembly!" Bertrand said, "Hurry up and put on your training clothes and get out!"

Similar mistakes happened repeatedly, so Bertrand was forced to conduct "corrective" training on him. He really couldn't understand what kind of nonsense the psychological test of the Strategic Homeland Security Agency tested, and even such a rotten person was allowed in.

He protested to his superiors, but they said Quinn was a good fit for the Gray Wolves team and was almost the best candidate.

Besides, the assignment order had already come down, and as long as he didn't cause any serious trouble, they would not consider the issue of reallocation unless Quinn took the initiative to request the transfer.

So Bertrand had to add some traditional skills, asking him to do push-ups and sit-ups, run laps around the training ground, sprint up hills - anything that would make his body sore for a few days so he wouldn't forget where laziness would lead.
