The girl with white hair and red eyes is serious about revenge

"Hey, little girl, you'll catch a cold."

Carly remembered those silver eyes, and the gentle gaze and embrace of Edward von Valantia.

Uncle Edward adopted her after she lost her parents. She still remembers how touched she was when she drank hot soup again, and how surprised she was when she saw the little white man across the table for the first time.

That day, she met Edward.

That day, she met Pearlis.

"..."

Carly stared blankly at the list titled "Starry Sky Ladder Project", her thoughts in a mess.

She quickly mobilized all the computing power of "As I Saw" and tried her best to restore the information in the remaining folders.

Soon, she got an audio file.

"..."

After a brief hesitation, Carly pressed the play button and listened carefully.

Noise, first an extremely chaotic noise.

Then, a clear female voice came:

"Stairway 2 is operating normally. The factor energy density continues to increase. It has broken through the atmosphere and is activating the factor shield."

That was the voice that only appeared in Carly's dreams: Cecilia Fellowes's voice was so gentle, and Carly remembered her long pink hair and her beautiful ice-blue eyes.

It's mom... She's the pilot of that manned spacecraft?

Carly continued listening. After another noise came over her, Cecilia's voice began to become a little hurried:

"The factor energy concentration...is still rising. This is not right, [Providence]. It's about to exceed the threshold."

"That's what we want to explore," it was Laplace's voice, "I want you to see with your own eyes what is at the top of the sky. Don't worry, the security system of Stairway 2 is very complete, you——"

"No! No! This isn't right!"

A hysterical voice came out, and Cecilia's voice became a little crazy. Carly even heard the sound of her scratching her hair frantically:

"I...I see it! It's stars! Stars!"

"Break through the barrier?" Laplace's voice was a little excited. "What is it? Cecilia, tell me! What is blocking us——"

"No! Don't look at me! Don't look at me!"

Cecilia screamed, and Carly even heard the sound of flesh being torn apart, and then realized that it was she who tore her own body apart—

"Don't look at me! Don't look at me! Don't look at me! Don't look at me!"

"Don't look at me! Don't look at me! Don't look at me! Don't look at me!"

"Don't look at me! Don't look at me! Don't look at me! Don't look at me!"

Crazy roars accompanied by noises kept bombarding Carly's eardrums. She listened blankly to the last roar of her mother's life and closed her eyes.

To her surprise, Cecilia's screaming stopped abruptly, replaced by a calm singing:

"Twinkle, twinkle, little star..."

"The sky is full of little stars..."

The soft chanting, accompanied by the noise, floated into Carly's ears across more than ten years, sending a chill down her spine.

The next second, an explosion sounded:

"boom!"

"Ladder 2 lost contact."

"..."

The recording stopped here, and Carly sat alone in the dark room, her body trembling slightly.

She looked out the window. The night sky of Wezel was dotted with stars, twinkling as usual.

What on earth did a person see to become like that...?

Mom...why...

The stars still shone, but at this moment, Carly suddenly began to be afraid of the stars.

......

2) Seesaw (Part 3)

What is there above the starry sky?

What is the purpose of the Stairway to the Stars Project? Is it to reach the stars?

Why ascend to the stars?

"..."

In the dark room, Carly's expression was a little dazed, and her thoughts were in a mess.

According to the current technological level of the Federation, even traditional propellant thrusters can allow manned spacecraft to maintain a speed of 7.9km/s-11.2km/s after breaking through the atmosphere, and can reach the orbit above the planet Ursa and even reach the satellite Missala.

Not to mention that after the [College War], with the development of the factor energy technology tree, fluid-free thrusters including the warp ring have been gradually improved. Although there is a lack of experiments, the theoretical speed can exceed 16.7km/s, reaching the escape velocity.

But the problem is that the Federation has never sent any man-made satellites into low-Earth orbit. The reason given is that "there is already a high-efficiency and low-cost means of factor energy communication, so there is no need to deploy satellites in low-Earth orbit."

In fact, Carly had seen a large number of design drawings for manned spacecraft and artificial satellites in the Academy. A considerable number of them had already been perfected and were obviously just waiting to be put into use. After the war, the Federation was not short of resources and was fully capable of sending one or two satellites into low-Earth orbit, which was also a disguised way of showing its strength.

But the Federation has never done this before. If Carly hadn't seen the [Starry Sky Ladder Project] today, she would probably think that the Federation had never even tried it.

There is something above the stars that has bound the Federation, known as "the wisdom of mankind", firmly to the earth.

"..."

Carly's mind was filled with her mother's scream before she died. What did "Don't look at me" mean? What did the star nursery rhyme that followed mean? All of this seemed to have nothing to do with science, and even seemed a bit anti-scientific, with a hint of mysticism.

More information is needed...We need to find someone who still has the complete plan on file and get the information from him.

Without hesitation, Carly quickly began to restore the contents of the document. She quickly found another part of the list of participants from the remaining data and locked onto a name:

"Chadwick Smith."

What a coincidence... The witness who saw the Black Island was actually a participant in that plan...

But what role could the Hillster Gun Factory play in this plan? Providing a method for forging manned spacecraft?

Thinking of this, Carly gently pressed the "Little Kangaroo" on her waist, and a revolver handle was revealed. She pulled out the steam revolver with her hands, which was the one her junior brother Grace gave her.

By the way, this gun was also produced by the Hillster Gun Factory...

It seems that we are on the same route. I will go to Hillster first, find Chadwick Smith and collect information to find a way to get to the Black Island.

Little white flower, here I come... Carly gently covered her chest, her eyes gradually becoming firm.

At this moment, dots of blue light lit up in front of Carly's eyes, indicating that the alarm she had secretly set was triggered -

——Someone broke into the house.

Is it the "Silent One"? Or the remnants of Sean Davis? They came to my door so quickly...

I really shouldn't go home... If I didn't need [As I Saw] to assist in processing information, escaping from Wiesel first would have been the best choice...

However, high risk means high reward... We had originally planned that they would most likely catch up with us, and now that it has happened, we can just deal with it as it happens.

If the Academy was able to respond in such a short time, it means they would not send only a few people. At least we should assume that the mansion has been surrounded...

In this case, we have no choice but to prepare for a bloody battle.

"..."

Carly stood up, turned the steam revolver, loaded a whole magazine of factor energy bullets with the quick loader, and then put it back on the platform at her waist.

She picked up the silenced pistol again, removed the silencer, and put it back on the waist platform.

Finally, she opened the cabinet in the room and took out a shotgun and an assault rifle. After loading all the bullets, she put the shotgun behind her back, held the assault rifle in both hands, and walked towards the door after a quick inspection.

She was ready to take the initiative and strike first.

Before going out, Carly shook her wrist lightly, and a red factor shield appeared around her.

At the same time, she whispered:

"Rain Barrier, activate backup power."

......

In the hall of the Philos Mansion, a group of soldiers wearing night vision goggles were moving forward cautiously in the dark, vigilantly checking every corner.

Due to the power outage, it took them some extra time to assemble, and preparations for the attack also took more time to ensure that everything was in place.

This was not excessive caution. According to the superiors, the person to be arrested this time was Carly Fellowes, the murderer who had just killed Dr. Sean Davis. The fact that she was able to complete the assassination mission in the heavily guarded Lansta New District and escape alive showed that her ability should not be underestimated.

"..."

In the field of view of the night vision goggles, the entire mansion was covered with a layer of green luster. This type of night vision goggles can amplify all the tiny lights in the darkness, so as to see everything clearly in the darkness.

With the vision in the darkness, this will be a completely overwhelming encirclement and suppression.

Just as the soldiers were thinking this, a ridiculous scene suddenly happened:

"Clap."

With a loud sound, the entire mansion suddenly lit up and the lights in the hall lit up.

In the field of view of night vision goggles, even such a simple light seemed extremely dazzling, making all the soldiers unable to see anything for a moment.

Before they could take off their night vision goggles, a figure popped out from the second floor and looked down at the hall.

——It was Carly, she was holding an assault rifle with an expressionless face.

"Da da da da da da da da-"

Fierce tongues of fire gushed out, sweeping across the hall in an instant, knocking down all the soldiers who had not yet recovered their vision.

Screams were heard incessantly. The soldiers who were ambushed had no energy to fight back and were shot like targets.

After a round of shooting, Carly threw the assault rifle where it was, then quickly changed her position and hid to the side of the stairs.

She grabbed the shotgun on her back and waited quietly on the side of the hall stairs.

At this moment, the soldiers who survived the first round of shooting had regained their sight. One of them caught a glimpse of a figure flashing by on the second floor and shouted:

"On the second floor! On the left side of the stairs!"

The soldiers reacted immediately. They opened fire at the second floor and the bullets turned the bricks and tiles into powder.

After a round of shooting, the entire mansion was silent, without any sound.

"I'll be the vanguard, cover me!"

The leading soldier yelled and started going up the stairs with his rifle, aiming the muzzle nervously at the left side of the stairs.

Before he was halfway there, a loud noise came from behind him:

"Oh!"

In an instant, the scattered flames tore his body apart, and he fell on the stairs with a scream and rolled down.

"Ahhhhh!!"

All the soldiers turned their heads suddenly and were shocked to find Carly standing at the gate behind them, holding a shotgun in her hand.

"It's the Dragon Breath Bullet! She's using the Dragon Breath Bullet!"

2) Seesaw (Part 4)

Just as the soldiers were about to fight back, Carly snapped her fingers and the entire mansion fell into darkness again.

Having learned their lesson from last time, the soldiers did not dare to turn on the night vision goggles rashly. They blindly fired a burst of bullets towards the place where Carly was standing last, but only heard the sound of bricks and tiles splashing when the wall was shattered.

"She's not there! Where did she go?"

A soldier yelled, and as if in answer to his question, a stream of fire burst out from the darkness -

"Oh!"

The dragon breath bullet instantly tore his body apart, and he fell to the ground with a scream, burning like a bonfire.
