786 Shadows of the Middle East
At the end of 67 years, on the occasion of the Spring Festival of bidding farewell to the old and welcoming the new. The conflict between Europe and Russia has begun again in the Middle East.
In the face of the warm water port that it has wanted for thousands of years, Russia cannot back down, but Europe will never let Russia get the Indian Ocean. The decision-makers on both sides did not want to start a war on the European battlefield, so the war began in the Middle East.
#
Since entering the modern industrial world, the Middle East has become a battlefield for the world's great powers. There are two reasons for this.
First: the Red Sea and the Indian Ocean are all here, and the transportation is developed.
Second: Moreover, it is dry, it is not the place where the world's labor industry is enriched, the product is only oil, and no matter how hard it hits, the oil is still under the stratum and will not be destroyed.
#
In particular, the second one is important. The people who live here do not take on the jobs that are essential to the world. So there is no scruples. As for the destruction of mansions, pools, cities, just the things that locals enjoy. Whether these things are damaged or not has nothing to do with the operating systems of other industrial powers in the world.
If the people of the Middle East are very industrious and develop a large number of processing industries, they can add a lot of value to the raw materials. Save costs for the world's industrial chain, then the wars that take place here will be forbidden by the major powers. Because once it is involved, everyone has a little money. Then it will provoke the anger of the public.
Because it has nothing to do with the purses of the parties, and the parties are at the intersection of geography here, since the fall of the Ottoman Empire, and according to the regional dialect, the more divided the nation, the fate of this place has been sealed.
As for justice? If there is no profit, it will be ignored and ignored, and justice and evil can be interpreted at will.
#
In the 21st century, the major powers will not deliberately commit genocide, but in this era, technology is an absolute blade, and when countries are armed with sharp blades, they are indifferent and ignorant, and when the blade is wantonly pulled out and aimed at others, this is the most terrifying nightmare.
##
During World War III, the horror of robot AI in Central Europe broke out again in the Middle East. The lower limit of the AI program has been lowered.
Because it is necessary to reduce the loss of robot AI, it can be killed by mistake, but the number of wrongful kills cannot be counted, so no one knows to what extent.
For example, when people in the Middle East get married, they are used to shooting at the sky, and at this time, the drone patrolling the sky will send a missile to the ground when it finds gunfire on the ground. The ground forces will then run over to deal with the situation, and if they find a wrongful killing, they will deal with it immediately.
#
It's not just the robot disaster that's raging, it's also a plethora of pests and diseases. Despite the humanitarian situation, the two warring sides transported huge quantities of food to the Middle East.
But this food delivery is based on economic interests, and with the global price of organic matter plummeting, food prices are cheaper than ever. But in the areas colonized by a country, the price of food will not fall, because the grain is the means of domination, the instrument of domination.
Therefore, in this era, the supply of food in the colonial areas, as well as the price of food, did not depend on the production of food, but on the mastery of the colonial domination by the planners behind the war. In fact, in the 21st century, the war of expansion can only be waged if there is abundant food at home. This is because only when there is abundant food can we establish a system of external domination on the premise of ensuring the stability of domestic rule.
#
As the war progressed, two miracles were achieved in the Middle East.
The miracle of urbanization is 100%, because the countryside is no longer suitable for survival.
The miracle of 40% economic growth in 67 years was due to the fact that the colonizers effectively controlled the labor force here.

The Russian-occupied zone, No. 43, the human settlement, is a four-story concrete square with rows of buildings, which, when viewed from the sky, resembles integrated circuit boards. Millions of people live here, and it's more of a prison and a concentration camp than a city. Each building is very densely packed with each other. Food and water are rationed every day, and electricity is only available for a few hours a day. In fact, in the entire Middle East, only foreign-controlled cities have access to water and food.
The Russians imposed a repressive rule on these cities. Law enforcement robots can be seen hovering in the sky everywhere. In the narrow streets of the city, the local police, dressed in Russian police uniforms, maintained order. Large and small surveillances are all over the streets. All adult men wear electronic collars around their necks (less expensive than the 21st century geriatric machines) for positioning. Once there is no such collar, it is equivalent to walking illegally in the city. will be subject to a harsh penal code.
So it is common to see the police, suddenly pulling out an individual. Then, with an ugly smile, he chained it to a telephone pole. Because of the arrest of a person who does not have an electronic access collar, the police can get a bonus. The interests of the system can drive people to destroy the inherent moral associations. Pity for compatriots, did not appear in the police. After the Russian rule here, the whole society of all kinds of people is for themselves.
#
And for Russia, maintaining such a city is not entirely humanitarian, but has great benefits. Because of these people who have lost the country. There is no labor law protection.
The whole city is engaged in heavy construction labor for food and water every day. On the construction site on the coast of the city. Workers in these cities are pouring concrete for a building module. These building modules vary in size.
All of them are exported to the five-star district, which is economically prosperous in the maritime area. A large amount of building materials is required to build a base complex on the seabed. As a result, large concrete building modules are in high demand.
After the construction of these building models of thousands of tons and tens of thousands of tons, they are directly lifted out to the sea, transported to the construction site of the five-star area with the help of buoyancy, and then directly assembled into large-scale buildings on the seabed. With the Russians having the cheapest labor in the world, out of careful budgeting for the country's construction, the five-star zone was bought.
As for how Russia supplies at low prices, everyone knows that the Russians are brutally exploiting the labor of Middle Easterners. As for the Middle Easterners, who could not be exploited, they all starved to death in the Holodomor. Russia's war was abundantly rewarded, and Imperial Russia's finances began to ease.
###
But for Middle Easterners, it's humiliating, like living on a livestock farm. In every city, of course, there are resistance groups, but every time these resistance groups are destroyed, the result is that the Russians feed back to the city with hunger, bringing panic to the city. And use the gangsters in the city to do the opposite. Gradually, the resistance in the city began to settle down. Sabotage was stopped.
And these resistance groups soon became degenerate, because the act of "saving the compatriots" to destroy the economic income of the Russians could not be understood by the compatriots, because every time the sabotage was destroyed, the Russians could not find the saboteurs, would directly raise the price of local fresh water, the price of grain. Several times in a row, people in the local city began to resist this kind of 'terrorist attack'
These resistance groups soon found themselves met with the indifference of the locals, and the people who joined the liberation cause with enthusiasm in these groups encountered reality because they could not solve social problems. So use a more realistic approach to achieve the goal.
Local resistance groups began to enlist the "help" of their compatriots in a locally appropriate way. Almost all revolutionary organizations have become gangsters, using the tactics of gangsters to demand sponsorship money from their compatriots. And because of this act of interest, faith is gradually tarnished by darkness. The building of internal organizational discipline began to rot.
The sponsorship money collected was spent by some members of the organization in brothels and game halls (gambling machines). And the more depraved, the more the original ideals are forgotten.

June 8, 2067 A.D
Somewhere in the Middle East Sector 43, a group of people, a special group of people, suddenly appeared in this world.
This group of traversers from the first generation, the name of the team is Assasin, and this group of traversers even covers up their names and replaces them with 12345. And they all wear masks, and only they know the identity of their teammates.
Upon arriving at the Shadow of the Cosmic Quest World, the group was undoubtedly furious. Because this group of people came from Central Asia before entering the first generation.
This group of people was very bitter and hateful because of the interference of the West in the original plane. However, now the West and Tsarist Russia are not only interfering in the East, but also completely dividing the entire Middle East into spheres of influence, and exploitation and oppression are several times stronger than their world. This provoked intense hatred.
This team existed in the world for three days, and during these three days they penetrated deep into northern Russian Rus, deep into Europe. Then began the madness of the reincarnation, purely venting his unwillingness and anger in the original world, through his superhuman power in the mission world, venting out. - This is a common way to decompress the first generation of reincarnations.
The team assassinated a number of capable people before disappearing from the world. And in this process, neither Lu An, nor Lu An's split team, met with this team.
#
In the St. Petersburg region, the upper echelons of Imperial Russia were in a state of anger and panic. Russia did not lose the gods in the Third World War, but in just three days lost two gods - Baklovsky (Bak) Sergeevich Pushkin. (referred to as Scheer).
And the cause of their death is very bizarre.
Buck's corpse had a large number of blood holes, densely packed with what seemed to be some bug getting in and out. Horror anomalous. After laboratory testing, it was found that there were a large number of maggot eggs in Buck's corpse, and it was obvious that these maggots had made Buck's body look like this, but the eggs on Buck's body were hatched in the laboratory and there was nothing special about them, they were ordinary fly eggs. Schelle, on the other hand, had a rather distorted countenance, and he couldn't see anything on the surface, but the internal organs were all cooked.
Both of the big men died in their own security team, but the security team was unscathed. Eighteen of the same cases occurred in three days, twelve of them were fourth-order abilities, and the others were fifth-order silver abilities.
This assassination directly dealt a heavy blow to the power of Imperial Russia in the Middle East. It also forced Imperial Russia to adjust its policy in the Middle East and reduce its repressive rule.
##
At first, the Russian Federation thought that this was done by the European side. But a week later, they received the shocking news that five Divine Beings had died in the Middle East on the European side. The way to die is equally weird. After receiving this news, both the Russian and European sides stopped the confrontation at the same time, and then sent each other's investigation teams to jointly investigate such cases.
##
Of course, then both the European side and the imperial Russian side thought of one person. That's the red name of the global super list. However, the base camps of both sides are very calm, and it is unlikely that Lu An did it. But they thought of another character in the Pudong incident of that year (Tianyun. )
What was Lu Ann resisting back then? What is the power of that mysterious being born from the superfield? Why did Lu Ann remain fearful in the face of confrontation? At that time, there was no public opinion, and the world only knew that in the end, Luan won the war. The character who confronted Lu An in the Pudong incident disappeared from the world. And for so many years, Lu An has been secretive. It also added a bit of mystery to the events of that year.
As Lu An entered Qiandi, as time passed, everyone forgot about this matter. The dust is sealed in the archives of various countries, after all, no one died back then, did he? There is no painful memory, and the memory is very indifferent. Only major deaths and major damage will be raised by the national database and included in the archives of special attention events.
However, as the terrifying death of the seven gods had now happened, the one-horned wolf department of the Golden Sheep Society almost immediately thought of the mysterious confrontation that Lu An had in the past.
Therefore, the two sides formed a joint investigation team, forming a team of six hundred silver high-level abilities. An investigation into the incident was conducted on a global scale. But the investigation was fruitless, and the existence that only caused the death of the seven gods seemed to appear silently and disappear without a sound.
And it seems that there is only one person in the five-star region who can do such a horrific event, but the one in the five-star zone in this style is different. Therefore, the two sides jointly questioned the five-star district.
##
Lu'an, who is located in the Dabie Mountains, received a top-secret incident report voluntarily submitted by the European side. But Lu An's light and shadow were very silent, but he did not give any answer to the matter. And even the gods of East Asia (Tang Hongkang) came to question. Lu An just said: "You don't care about this matter." ”
This kind of behavior made the European side fall into contemplation, because Luan did not show a response of 'curiosity, interest in further inquiry', this attitude of not saying a word, but more like knowing the truth, but wanting to evade.
But at the same time, there was a lot of panic. Because if it wasn't done by Lu An, then it means that there is no intersection with the existence of this unknown horror. When people are confronted with an unnegotiable, unscouting opponent, their first reaction is panic.
