《Protect Humanity Project》16. Border Officer

This evening the weather is not good, not on duty soldiers are hunkered down in the dormitory with the terminal to watch the live broadcast of Star Network TV, the duty also fugue in the sky would like to be present in person.
No other reason, because today is all day mid level purifier Miss Komsomolsk-on-amur select betrothal ceremony, during the day is a feature interview and speeches by the leaders, followed by the candidates of the introduction and selection ceremony. At dinnertime, the Purifier will join everyone for a banquet, and the shortlist will be announced at 7 pm.
“Oh, why can’t I watch it live? ”
“I guess it’ll have to be the eldest son of Commons... ”
“Another land beast, they are too powerful, ” whispered the soldiers.
In fact, the annual public selection of betrothed is a bit like a pilgrimage.
The women of the Purifiers, who were sought after throughout the union, had their safety, daily life, and work done by the Continental Congress, and there was no freedom to speak of.
Their popularity is no less than that of top stars, and because talent is so precious, when they reach their age, they must also choose their betrothal partners carefully, candidates need to have S + above the intensity of talent, integrity of character, strong ability, superior position and other requirements, not easier than the emperor.
Each year to meet the conditions of the age of purification division of women will be together to hold a selection ceremony betrothal, no exceptions, and after a good selection can be long or short time to cultivate feelings, not suitable can also separate re-selection. Usually only once a year, but in fact, as the numbers dwindled and the young purifiers became more and more valuable, a purifier had at least a few dozen families watching.
This year, only Caroline, a 20-year-old female, is in demand.
Joice was sitting on the floor, throwing dumbbells, and not far behind him, his aide, Romont, dutifully explained every detail of the live video.
“The most popular vote so far is Commons Holden, who now holds the rank of colonel and serves in the bronze bugle corps. In addition, there are members of both the Swift and the Smith families. Neither of the Yasukuni and the Baek families came, ” Romon said.
Joice has no interest at all: “Jing Yi’s face is paralyzed with thoughts of war, and he hasn’t competed for betrothal parties in years. Bai Yixing looks honest, but in fact he is full of evil, and in a few years the parliament will drill a hole for him. ”
He lay on his back, his sweat-stained red hair plastered to his forehead, his dark eyes deepening.
Reymond looked at him from the side. “You’re not so little anymore, commander. ”
“Why, are you here to lecture me? ” Joice raised his eyebrow. “I don’t want to be a commodity. I’d rather be here with the degenerate. ”
Reymond knew him well enough not to say anything.

There was a rustle of chatter from the soldiers watching the live feed, presumably to announce the final list, when a huge alarm went off, taking everyone by surprise.
“Warning! Warning! Power Grid Breach! Warning... ”
Joyce jerked up from the floor and angrily said, “Those bugs! ! ! ! ”
Smoke was already billowing from several supports just a few kilometers from the border line where the fort was being held. Outside these walls of solid, heavy steel and concrete is a dense grid of high-voltage electricity, which has now been breached and ripped apart several times.
This concrete wall is more than 50 meters high from the ground. Most people can’t climb it. The only opening to the opposite side was the original manual tunnel, which was used to transport prisoners and supplies, and was sealed by four or five mechanical locks and metal gates, which had to be forced through.
Peiji, who was standing high up, gestured back as he heard a loud siren from the inside of the line.
“Pick up the pace. The first siege team will fall back. The second siege team will go. ”
“The garrison is out. The birds are ready to attack! ”
Just as the words fell, the Moyan saw a group of people rush up and break down the gate by any means necessary. The siege team is made up mostly of the predator gene, which includes large terrestrial predators such as tigers, lions and wolves, as well as heavyweight herbivores.
She could clearly see a man, who did not know whether he was a rhinoceros or some kind of ox, banging his head against the door with a horn that was as powerful as a bullet, and the concrete walls falling down in ashes.
A few searchlights flashed from the side of the wall, moving erratically from side to side, sweeping through the mess and the fortification below.
The men with the bird gene flapped into the air, attacking with a handful of guns, more or less blocking the advance of the garrison.
Peiji’s face was cold as he watched a man approaching from a distance, his red hair glowing as if from somewhere else. Peiji waved her arms back, her eyes fixed on Guerin and Murphy, who were immediately in front of Moyan, covering her up.
“How Bold You buggers are, ” said Joice, standing on the roof of the fortification with a small detachment of his own guards, dressed in pure black, and looking scornfully down at the scattered army of prisoners below.
“Tell me, Romont, what is the penalty for breaking out of prison? ” Asked Joice.
The man next to him had a blank expression on his face: “The death penalty for those who are in charge, and an additional twenty years of exile for those who accompany them. ”
“Twenty years? I swear, ” Joice said, turning a blind eye to the ragtag army below. “You will pay forever for challenging me today. ”
As he spoke, a group of soldiers suddenly rushed out from behind, their machine guns aimed at the crowd below, the chaos of the gunfight imminent. Those who were meant to fly over the line of defense were hit by heavy fire from the other side, falling like meteors.

Ignoring the splatter of blood, Joice looked at the man standing high in the distance.
“Bae, you did this. Aren’t you using their lives? Do you have the confidence to get out of here? ” Cried Joice.
Peiji looked at the fallen mercenaries, wailing and clutching their wounds, who were soon dragged to the rear by their teammates.
He turned to the angry Joice. “You’re wrong. They were never trying to get out of District 12. ”
With that, four or five of the transport mechs suddenly jumped out from behind the dunes. The reinforcements arrived. The men inside ran the mechs into the gate, but they were not meant to be used against the enemy. They could not even guarantee minimum safety, the driver was completely exposed to the air.
Joice watched the men run for their lives as if they were going to their deaths, and when the bullets ran out, they built walls of blood and bodies that would never die. Some of them even became prototypes, and neutralized the garrison like a beast.
For a moment, the prisoners had the upper hand.
“Have these people gone mad? ” Joice watched in amazement as the gate was smashed open, the cracked concrete column smashed to the ground, and the line of defense was torn to shreds.
If it was a few people, it wouldn’t be a problem to resist suppression. But look at this situation, the entire a 3 tens of thousands of people have been mobilized, what is the mob so concerted efforts?
“Send more reinforcements, get all the men from the nearby checkpoints, send word to the imperial capital immediately, there is a mass escape of prisoners at the border of District 12, ” Joice ordered, and the next moment he took off his uniform and jumped into the fight.
He had a pair of scarlet wings on his back, and feathers turned into sharp points of knives so that no one could get near him. “Anyone who wants to die, come up here and try it! ” Joice thundered, kicking one of the animal genes out of the way. “Those who don’t want to die, Stop! ”
But he was surprised to find that the people seemed to be deaf. The next moment, a sharp blade came from behind him, Joyce narrowly avoided, wing was cut off a few feathers. The Peiji looked at him coldly, with a long knife in his hand. “I won’t let you stop her, ” he said
“Stop Who? ! ”
Joice had a gut feeling that it wasn’t going to be that easy, but he got caught up in the Peiji, and the guy’s fighting power seemed to soar several notches in an instant. Back in the corps, they were both S + talents, and they were always fighting each other, and now the Peiji has the upper hand.
The line of defense was about to be breached and the garrison outclassed, but the soldiers at the other checkpoints did not arrive so quickly. The men were determined to fight quickly.
Joice threw off the Peiji and flew high into the air, pressing his comlink quickly: “Fire Support! ”
By the time the Peiji heard it, it was too late. In just two seconds, countless white lights had burst from the fence. The laser cannons were almost instantaneous, powerful and inescapable, though the range of the soldiers’ shots was not fixed, but there are also a few directly aimed at the rear of the prisoners’ army.
Everywhere the artillery fire went, the soil cracked and the sand flew in the air for ten seconds before settling down.
Peiji quickly slipped away from Joice and retreated, rising in the shaking of the ground to search for the shadow of the Moyan. So did most of the others, who avoided the gunfire only to discover that the girl was closely guarded by the guards, but had suffered greatly, and that there was a huge crater not far from her.
It was unacceptable that the people who stood by her lost all reason in an instant, and that the most precious thing they guarded was in danger.
The mutants stood on their feet and let out an almost animal growl from their throats, an emotion that quickly spread to a wider area and soon infected all the prisoners with the angry message.
They had been wild and angry, and now the battle was almost one-sided, and the insane felons, with their desperate fighting, almost drove the garrison backward, and tore open the lines of defence under a hail of bullets.
Joice didn’t know why, but when he just fired a cannon at the rear, the men were suddenly furious several times over.
He wasn’t paying attention, his arm was cut by a speeding Peiji, the other side didn’t care what is called defense, just attack, feather people in the face of the land beast has a power disadvantage, maybe other people are not so obvious, but when it comes to the strong, the difference is magnified. As Joice wrestles with his loss, he suddenly figures out the Peiji anomaly.
The cold-blooded prisoners attacked recklessly, and all indications were that the other side wanted to be quick! The rear of the line must be protecting someone important!
He flapped and swept back, shouting over his comms: “Garrison, keep firing back! ”
When the words fell, his eyes Peiji, and he ran back, almost with all his strength.
“No! ! ! ”
At the same time, a beam of light, brighter and brighter than before, had been congealed into a straight line, aimed at the rear of the attackers’ army, the Moyan.

Supreme Formation Immortal Sovereign
Falling under the Heavenly Tribulation, Ascending Celestial Oalur Kang finds that he's back in the past. Watch him pursue the Heavenly Path of Formations and rise to the peak of the Immortal Path! . . . . . . . . . Hello, this is F-Rank! This is my take on writing cultivation stories. Though I'm sure nobody cares, the intent behind this story was focused on creating a more or less logical cultivation system. I read several stories where the mc transmigrated to a cultivation world (not calling names to avoid unnecessary angst) and was able to completely break the cultivation system and the logic of the world because they had the power of science on their side and were able to think more logically than everybody else. Despite the fact that some characters in those stories were older than the scientific method of thinking and even the human civilization as we know it and the whole society was older than our human race. So I decided to write a story where things about cultivation make sense (as far as a magical world full of super magical people can make sense), so here we are. I don't know if I will be able to fulfil this purpose but I hope that the story will end up enjoyable. Can also be considered a prequel for my other story "Wasn’t my new life in a magical world supposed to be easy?" but has very little overlapping content and can be read as a stand alone story.
