Lada inside the mechanical skeleton is the eldest daughter of the mechanical emperor and the sister of Chanjuan and Ah Fang.

It was the woman who made Zhang Yue feel scared when he mentioned it in the Mechanical Eagle Castle.

Of course, this woman is also Maria's sister who has been missing for many years.

Nowadays, everyone knows that Radha is the god* daughter of the Machine Emperor, and has obtained the true inheritance of the Machine Emperor, and her attainments in researching and manufacturing machinery are not inferior to the Machine Emperor, so she is called the Machine Princess.

The mechanical skeleton in front of him, which is exquisitely made and has amazing power, is Lada's own masterpiece.

Today, the name of the mechanical princess is not only known to everyone in the Twin Cities, but also through the intelligence agencies of various countries, her reputation has long been well-known overseas.

In the eyes of the world, even though the Mechanical Emperor is unmatched, he is already in his last years, and his time is short.

People are more concerned with the future of infinite possibilities than with the dead past.

In this way, with the passage of time, people's attention gradually shifted from the mechanical emperor to the mechanical princess.

For the Emperor of the Machines, people are just concerned about when he will die.

For the mechanical princess, this new generation of mechanical genius who is less than thirty years old, will bring amazing changes to the world in the near future.

Lada, a young and beautiful genius scientist, is undoubtedly the focus of great attention from all parties.

However, behind her extraordinary talent and beautiful looks, no one knows about her difficult childhood.

Rada is Maria's older sister, and like Maria, the ice beauty, Rada was born on the vast Siberian ice field.

Now they look the same, they are all out-and-out ice beauties, this is not an accident, but the inevitability of close relatives, because they used to look very similar.

That was more than a decade ago, when Germany invaded the Soviet Union.

The vast expanse of Siberia has been an extremely cold place since ancient times. The people living here are always short of food and clothing, especially in winter, and many people are starved to death almost every year.

With the beginning of mass Soviet production. The miserable life of hunger and cold gradually improved, but the arrival of war completely changed all this.

Because of the war, the men rushed to the front. All kinds of supplies should also serve the military supply first.

As a result, people's lives are becoming more and more difficult, not only not getting better day by day, but far less than ten years ago, and everywhere you can see shocking starvation.

Poverty can still make people endure it, but hunger cannot last long, which makes them eat everything that can be used to fill their stomachs, whether it is a sick or dead animal. Or the rough bark, even those who die of cold and starvation, will become someone else's meal.

In a family, it seems that someone starving to death no longer seems to be a terrible thing, but instead becomes a comforting thing.

The dead do not need to starve, and the living can also get a big meal for it.

But even so, there is still not enough food for people to eat.

Radha and Maria's childhood was in such a time of suffering.

It was the winter of one year, eleven-year-old Rada. I was picking up dead branches in the woods and preparing to take them home to make firewood. Because my father went to the front, the smart and sensible Rada, always had time. Help your mother as much as you can and do what you can.

Rada was collecting branches in the snow, she was just a child, and she didn't carry many branches back and forth at a time.

While Radha was busy collecting branches, her younger sister, Maria, who was not yet seven years old, sat and played in the snow next to her sister Rada.

Suddenly. Maria exclaimed, and in the middle of the white snow, she saw a large tan gopher.

This gopher is large in size and can be said to be larger than an adult domestic cat.

It's just that this huge gopher looks skinny, and there is only skin and bones left.

In a place where humans can't fill their stomachs, these little creatures have the same troubles as humans, and they have to run around in search of food.

Survival in the vast and barren Siberian taiga is a test for all living things, and it may not be long before a mass extinction takes place in this cold land of ice and snow.

Rada heard her sister's cry and was worried that something would happen to her and immediately ran towards Maria.

"What's wrong, Maria? What happened? Radha asked.

"Over there, sister, look over there!" Maria said, pointing to the snow not far away.

Rada looked in the direction Maria was pointing and saw gophers scurrying around in the snow, desperate to find food.

It's a big gopher, though it looks a little scrawny.

Rada's eyes lit up, which meant that they had a big meal today.

Rada decided to hunt the gopher, she was very confident in it, she had hunted a lot of animals, even the agile little reindeer, Rada had successfully hunted, so in the face of such a hungry, skinny and weak gopher, Rada naturally did not hesitate.

"I think we should catch it!" Radha said to his sister.

"Great! What should I do? Maria got up from the snow excitedly and patted the snow on her skirt, she knew that her sister was a good hunter and wanted to hunt like her.

In Maria's heart, her sister is not only very good to her, but her sister is also very powerful, and she is always the best in whatever she does.

"Okay, be quiet, don't scare it away." Radha said in a low voice, untying her apron and knotting it into a simple rope sleeve.

"What should I do?" Maria was thrilled but didn't know what to do.

"Maria, you come and bait for it, I think it's very hungry right now, and it's looking for anything to eat, so you pretend to be its food, and I'll go around behind it, waiting for an opportunity to catch it." Rada told Maria about his plans.

"Ahh Maria was a little stunned.

"Okay, you just lie on the ground and don't move, just pretend to be a dead man." Radha said.

"Am I going to lie down like this?" Maria asked.

"That's right, don't move, don't scare the gopher away." Radha whispered.

In this way, Maria did as her sister Rada said, lying quietly on the snow and pretending to be dead, waiting motionlessly for the gopher to approach her.

Radha quietly ducked into the bushes and slowly circled behind the gophers, ready to find the best chance to hunt the gophers.

It didn't take long for the hungry gophers to fall into their sisters' trap.

The gopher cautiously leaned towards Maria, and Maria, who couldn't see her sister, was very worried and frightened.

As she watched the gopher get closer and closer to her, Maria prayed silently that the gopher would go to her sister Rada instead of herself.

Seeing the gopher getting closer and closer, Maria was so frightened that she almost cried, and she really wanted to get up now and flee this terrible place at once. (To be continued.) )
