The Throne Under the Starry Sky Chapter 19: Dawn in Eastern Europe (Part 1)


Gu Tie’s flight landed in Kiev.

Going down the gangway, two steaming GAZ military off-road vehicles with engines turning, standing in front of a dark-skinned Indian youth with deep eye sockets, Balvund, an important member of the IPU and leader of the anti-gtc organization "Shiva" pull.

Gu Tie put down the suitcase in his hand and stepped forward to beat his sturdy chest: "Mother, what trouble have you caused? How long has it been since, three years?"

"If you didn’t like trouble, I wouldn’t call you. Three years and five months." The Indian smiled and replied in standard Mandarin, "I will say your name silently every day when I pray, I beg you Don't die too early."

"Don't worry, there is a Chinese saying that harms life for thousands of years." Gu Tie laughed and embraced him warmly.

The two got into the previous off-road vehicle. The driver was a young Ukrainian officer. He turned around and asked in jerky English: "Sir, where are you going?"

"Do you speak Russian? We can listen to Russian." Barvindra said.

"Of course, where are we going now?" The officer switched to Russian.

"Go to see the general."

"Yes, sir."

The car started, drove out of the airport, and turned onto the wide asphalt road.

"The person we are going to meet is Lieutenant General Vladimir Igri. This old guy’s brother Sergey is the vice chairman of the current ruling Ukrainian Socialist Party. Their family has had some influence in both military and political terms. Power." Barr said to Gu Tie in Chinese.

"I remember that the Ukrainian Socialist Party relied on the anti-gtc manifesto to gain popular support during the election. The first thing the president did when he came to power was to expel the tentacles of'Genesis' from the country." Gu Tie touched the back of his head, "Can you do it here? Connected to the Internet? For example, playing "World" or something."

"The entire Ukraine uses ipv6 encoding. The terminal's t-code (Note 1) addressing will be blocked during the exchange, so satellite access can only be used. You also play the "world", which continent is ?" Barr asked unexpectedly.

"Western Continent. Near the riverside of the southwestern border." Gu Tieyile, "You are an anti-gtc leader, why are you also playing games on "Genesis"."

Old Barr blushed: "'Shiva' wants to build resistance in the'world'. You know, the operation of the'world' is now the top priority of gtc."

"Do you still think that the timing committee is the root of all evil? Within ipu, you are considered an alternative."

"There are also two factions within the ipu. Some members believe that the quantum computer'Genesis' is the door of evil that should not exist in the world. The other half of the organizations, such as'Shiva', think that computers are not terrible, but the terrible thing is Being in the hands of those with no restriction is like giving a three-year-old child a pistol with opened insurance."

"Barr, this idea is naive. Someone is going to manage Genesis. Democracy is the dumbest thing."

"I have a trident to drive the storm, black bows and arrows to spread the plague, and cobras to squirt venom. I want to master the power of ghosts, so that ignorant people who dare to use quantum computers to enslave mankind are completely burned by black flames." Barr Make lotus flowers with your hands and draw your nails in the middle of your forehead. ——Gu Tie knows that he is using gestures to show that he has the third eye that represents Shiva's divine power.

"Knowing you for so long, I feel more and more that you are a lunatic. When one day you really destroy gtc, you will guard Salzburg, come and kill one?"

"Until Brahma's oracle comes." Baal showed a wicked smile that made Gu Tie's creeps.

"Come on, figure it out, I'm doing you a favor, not your **** organization, don't get it on my head if something happens." Gu Tie shook his head and turned to look at the birch trees passing by the window. .

"Right," he turned his head back again, "how did you get involved with Ukrainians?"

"It’s a long story. In 2037, Russia’s Gorky Automobile Plant (Note 2), which is what you Chinese call the GAZ Group, is on the verge of bankruptcy. The government has established a friendship. The GAZ 41 off-road vehicle we are riding in is one of the 500 military vehicles donated to the Ukrainian Army in the name of CIS economic and trade assistance two years ago. In fact, I expressed goodwill to the Ukrainian government. That’s all, General Vladimir also received an akm-delta prototype gun signed by Kalashnikov himself. After that, I gradually got acquainted. You know, the salaries of Ukrainian soldiers and civil servants are pitifully low. "

"There are capitalist sugar-coated shells everywhere." Gu Tie pouted.

While talking, the Gaz buggy turned into a house with guards on guard and stopped in front of a two-story Russian-style spire. On the steps stood a fat man in an old-style military uniform and a big brimmed hat with a big smile. He stretched out his hands and said hello in Russian: "Mr. Iron, welcome."

"I said that you are a director of the Quantum Angel Fund, a wealthy Chinese businessman, a bit weird to be a collector." Barr secretly said in Gu Tie's ear.

"Dear General Igri, the weather in Ukraine is very cold, and your smile warms my soul like a burning fireplace." Gu Tie got out of the car and stretched out his hands to welcome him with a friendly smile. The four hands shook together in a friendly and triumphant manner.

"Please call me Vladimir, Mr. Iron." The lieutenant general smiled brightly, and let the two into the room, seated in the magnificent living room, and the orderly soldiers brought coffee. "Adding a little vodka can make your body warmer." The general smiled as the attendant took a sip and grinned.

After the meaningless greetings, Lieutenant General Igri took the initiative to cut to the topic: "Listening to my friend Barr, Mr. Tie is very famous in the collectors circle, and he is famous in China for his unique vision. This time I came to Ukraine. I want to find radioactive and unique historical collections in the Chernobyl ruins. This is a very interesting idea! I can assure you that although foreign adults are strictly prohibited in the lockdown zone, I will do my best to guarantee it for a week Then you can sit unharmed in your home in China and admire the burnt dolls covered with radioactive dust."

"Thank you! My collection room is already empty." Gu Tiedao turned his head and gave Barr a vicious look, meaning that you could make up such an excuse for being mentally retarded.

Barr touched the bridge of his nose, and said: "If you want to add vodka to the coffee, Wiborova (Note 3) is more suitable."

"Well, Polish wine. Ukrainians have not drunk Polish wine since the Cossack uprising (Note 4)." The lieutenant general shook his fat finger and said righteously. "I am a principled person.-But sometimes, my eyesight is not very good."

Gu Tie was taken aback, Barr said: "Please rest assured, Lieutenant Admiral, what you can't see will not affect your principles."

The two smiled tacitly.

The Lieutenant General stood up, shook hands with the two of them one by one, and said: "Please rest early today. Someone will pick you up at nine o'clock tomorrow morning. Mr. Barvindra can bring several entourages, no more than six people. I will send a squad of soldiers to protect you. In addition, according to the quarantine security regulations, there will be an official from the National Security Council and a reporter from the People’s Army (Note 5) sponsored by the Ministry of National Defense. Don’t mind, they are all Smart people. Good luck, gentlemen."

General Igri raised his hand to salute and turned to go out. The Gaz off-road vehicle whizzed out of the yard, leaving only two guards armed with guns.

"Old fox." Gu Tie commented.

He was stuffed into a ball of paper by the general in the palm of his hand, and when he opened it, it was full of matrix codes (Note 6).

Note 1, "t" code, "t" address: each ‘Genesis’ terminal has a unique number, similar to a mac address, used to determine the identity of the accessor;

Note 2, Gorky Automobile Factory: a large-scale automobile enterprise established in the former Soviet Union era, producing "GAZ" brand off-road vehicles, "Volga", "Seagull" off-road vehicles, etc.;

Note 3, Wiborowa: Polish vodka label;

Note 4, Cossack Uprising: The revolutionary movement led by the national hero Khmelnitsky in 1591 against the rule of the Kingdom of Poland;
