It is several hundred kilometers from the departure point of the aircraft to its destination.
There are three different patron cities near these hundreds of kilometers of flight routes - they are all areas like Jayhawk City where the gene bank defense armed forces and senior military attachés are stationed. There are also several that have in-depth cooperation with the Youhe Knights.
Research Knights.
These three cities are not in the middle of the flight route, but are relatively close to the route.
There are also several scattered settlements in the centers of the three cities.
These settlements are similar to recycling towns, and they are spontaneous settlements formed by people who do not want to live in the city.
This type of settlement is generally formed by the active migration of people who have mastered some production, life skills and martial arts in the city.
Since there is no infrastructure and public services provided by the government in the old era, the living conditions in cities in this era are much worse than in the wild - after all, the population density is too high, and the area of solar panels alone is not enough.
This is based on the premise that baseline humans, especially prosthetic baseline humans, have very low requirements for "eating" and "excretion".
The only advantages of the city are network signals and primitive commerce. Here, it is easier to learn skills, download drawings, and find various manufacturers.
Such a person who has mastered the skills can report to the government after gathering a certain amount of people [the government standard is the number of people who "will not inbreed for at least three generations", usually dozens of people]. In the government
After reviewing and determining that this person has not "established an organization with strict regulations" and does not violate Dyson's principles, his request will be approved and everyone will be notified that the settlement is protected by human civilization and is one of the "sanctuary areas"
1. If significant harm is caused to groups within this designated area, then the government will definitely eliminate those who harmed them.
This kind of "protection" is targeted at this area or group.
The civilized protection of individuals within the settlement has nothing to do with this.
If an area has been revoked for asylum, the people in this area are still protected persons. If another asylum seeker harms them during this period, the asylum will also be revoked.
But that's just the withdrawal of asylum.
As for whether it will be wiped out by the army, it depends on the mood of the protector.
And if the settlement suffers major damage during the period when the area is declared protected, then the protectors will definitely send out the army.
And the reason for this is... lack of manpower.
Due to Dyson's principle, the organization of the asylum seekers themselves is not very high, and they are often short of manpower and cannot protect all humans in the area.
Although they theoretically have to cover everyone with civilized protection, in practice they are unable to do this, so they have to declare "priority protection" for some areas.
Of course, they also strongly encourage residents to defend themselves.
At the same time, people in these settlements will also accept some test tasks from the Scientific Research Knights - they can obtain some seedlings or strains of "modern crops" from the Scientific Research Knights and plant them themselves. Those crops are
Prepared by the Scientific Research Knights.
The "scientific research knights" here are not limited to "local scientific research knights", because the scientific research knights stationed in some cities do not have genetics-related research projects at all. But through the gene bank defense and arming of this institution, they can also
Received a "seed test" task from the scientific research knights in another place.
And if they don't accept the mission, they can also buy crop seedlings from the gene bank security forces - and one thing is for sure, the price is quite reasonable. If someone has been a low-level soldier of the Asylum, then these things are almost given away for free.
.
Then, a settlement was born.
Like all families, settlements are required to pay genetic taxes and raise babies as welfare to prevent the occurrence of inbreeding degeneration.
This area is close to the Pacific Ocean and has a relatively humid climate. Fungi are more common on the ground than around Jayhawk City. It is easier to raise crops here.
Therefore, the density of settlements is also greater than that around Jayhawk City.
However, the knights must also consider avoiding inhabited areas in their actions.
The density of residents in the settlements is another matter. The protectors will not carry out unwarranted massacres in the settlements. However, every resident in the settlements may become the eyes of the protectors. As for ordinary residents,
The knights can't kill directly.
In addition, if the protector does not notice that there are ordinary people near the vigilante group, those ordinary people may also be injured by the missile explosion.
Therefore, large-scale chivalrous activities also need to avoid concentrated areas.
The location of this operation must take into account the three conditions of "below the flight route", "far away from the shelter army", and "not close to the settlement".
In this case, there are fewer areas to choose from.
The area chosen by the Arctic Warriors is near the Pacific Coast Mountains. The aircraft must circle between several peaks, cross the Coast Mountains, and then reach the Rocky Mountains.
The terrain of this place is complex, which can give full play to the advantages of the knights' "guerrilla warfare specialization". In this area, the numerical advantage of the patron army is difficult to express.
According to the usual practice, a group of rangers should be dispatched to search at this time. With more than ten rangers joining forces, even those warriors who can cross the first level of the world at any time dare to touch it.
However, according to the intelligence brought by Jardel and Takahashi Ziyi, the Arctic Knights all believe that, conventionally speaking, the Ranger team is seeking death when they encounter the "Unknown Hero".
There are also some burrowers active here, so movement will be easy.
After resting for a few days, Xiangshan, Jader and the others were on the road again, heading towards the Pacific Coast Mountains.
They will go to the burrowing dragon community there and get help from the burrowing dragons.
By the way, he also met up with other knights who participated in the operation.
"Let me tell you, hero, this time besides me, there are a few good players. Although they are not as strong as me, they can still take on many combat tasks." The single-killing king slapped his chest loudly.
"The most important thing is the sniper." Xiang Shan said: "We must ensure that the thing is shot down and avoid explosion."
Those aircraft are rare machines that use synthetic fuel. If they are hit in the wrong way, they may explode and the result will be lost.
Xiangshan didn't want to blow up the specimens of the Research Knights. He just wanted a small refrigerator.
"That's no problem." The single-kill king said: "I can guarantee that Master Blackhand is the best gunner in the Arctic."
At this moment, Master Blackhand is running for his life.
