Ratmir saw right in front of his nose a glass indicator “Nuclear alarm!” burning red. In the commander's tower of the BMP, the signal was duplicated by mournful beeps. He stuck the earpiece to his ear - the same message went on at all frequencies: “Everyone! Prepare for a nuclear strike! Ratmir barked into the microphone, “Stop everyone! Turn off the engines, turn off all electronics, hide under the armor, raise the ejector shutters, turn on the collective protection system, put on personal protective equipment!The column of his battalion froze in the middle of the road. The people got down from the armor and took cover inside the armored vehicles. The hatches were hastily battened down, the pumps hummed, creating internal pressure. Ratmir, recalling the forgotten exercises at the school, pulled on rubber spacious boots-stockings, tied their tops with straps, put on a gas mask, threw on a rubber raincoat, fastening it on his chest, passing the strap between his legs, tied the skirts

- So now what? Hot, taking off his cap with a shiny cockade and throwing it on the refrigerator, sat down on the reception desk.- And we did everything, - Wolverine smiled, putting a spear and a shield at the closet, - fire algorithms are activated, they can only be erased together with the entire Galaxy shell. Now the war of the gods, but this is no longer our business. The main thing is that we broke Grog's single plan, opened hundreds of doors to the future in addition to his door, thousands of scenarios will now begin to develop on their own. I have business with the algorithm of the arts, I have a separate agreement with his Goddess, I will help her scenarios. Your help is not needed, and you do not owe anything to anyone here.Looking into Hoth's and my bewildered eyes, Masa was surprised:- Don't you have anything to do? Now is a unique moment. All roads are open, all chances are in hand, re-deal of the deck. Go ahead, realize your dreams, pay debts that are frozen?Masa made

Special Forces broke into the site at the last moment. Three dozen well-equipped fighters in black with shields and helmets-spheres, roughly working with rubber sticks and legs, cut through the crowd of local residents in a narrow column, stood in a ring around the Bounty, covering it with shields from above and covering it from all sides like a cocoon. If they were a couple of seconds late, something terrible would happen. Wagner already thought that the Bounty, and everyone who was nearby, including journalists, would now be torn to pieces. The people of Gofhall were beside themselves, there were thousands of them, and many of them had knives and even impressive cleavers.Only Bounty himself and Tanya, who, from an elite prostitute who killed the previous co-chair of the Judicial Commission, became his assistant, were tightly covered with armor. Wagner was outside the protected ring and miraculously managed to squat down. The stone that hit the shield could have gone to him. Bouncin

Thor was sweaty in his chemical suit, the gas mask sticking sticky rubber to his sweaty face. In the heat in the sandy dust, he fled with a hundred North Carthian soldiers to the cars parked about a kilometer away. Inexperience played a good joke on him. Experienced soldiers, it turned out, unscrewed filters and glass eyeglasses from gas masks so as not to overstrain in training. Now it was difficult to vouch for their future. Why are there filters, many in chemical bags instead of rubber suits turned out to be all sorts of crap - canned food, shaving gels, warm socks ... Now this frightened herd was running towards a convoy of cars in order to evacuate from the affected area.Thor had been riding with the North Carthian army along the foothills of the Dersky Range for two months now. Tomorrow he was supposed to get to the Atau pass, where a film crew was already waiting for him to film the offensive in the mountains. Thor was supposed to get to Atau together with artillerymen - a gro

Leslie Jefferson sat with Hoth in a tinted car parked somewhere on the outskirts of Demir, where unkempt warehouses gradually turned into landfills. The general explained to the Jedi what and how:- We do not have our own special forces in the state. You can't bring in local cops. Some small things will be done by our friendly gangsters, but all the most serious things will have to be done by your group.- We will do it, you just insert us where necessary and with the necessary options. And so - we signed up for this business, so we will do it.- There is one point that you have not signed up for yet, we need to discuss, - the deputy general director of Galaxy Sec turned to Hot, looking at his face - again with a beard and a long mustache, - "Great Sorcerers" delivered a verdict only on Grog. The Bounty project is left to fate and free competition. Many in Galaxy are determined to get it done anyway, and will work on it even if Grog is gone. But there are groups ready to fit in for ot

An hour later, all the media gave an urgent warning that at 20-00 Manowach time, the co-chairman of the intergalactic commission on state building Gilats will make a special televised address. He appeared on the screen, contrary to custom, in a strict black suit, without the usual smile or meaningful grin. Looked directly and even honestly. He called the situation around Judge Bounty the most complicated and dangerous political crisis, casting a shadow on intergalactic institutions. He scrupulously listed the accusations against the Bounty available in different galaxies, called the claims of the GCC, individual states and citizens of this country deserving the most serious and careful consideration.- Intergalactic institutions have no right to stand aside and are obliged to conduct an investigation and trial themselves. If guilt is proven, we will have to severely punish the culprit in the name of our common intergalactic community - no matter how high rank he has. The exceptional s

The first ten starships descended like hot red balls onto the smooth white sands of the desert in eastern Partha. Maat still hated that moment of landing, when everything turns gray and flickers in her eyes, and in all her insides something jumps, presses up and down, and, of course, she feels sick. A landing force of intergalactic peacekeepers landed near Bahdi, next to the spaceport. A thousand paratroopers and a thousand engineers were to take control of the cosmodrome and the adjacent airfield, restore their work and create conditions for the landing of a peacekeeping brigade on heavy ships, the transfer of troops of the Ants on transport aircraft.Bahdi was visible through the porthole. A huge gray patch of solid ruins is all that remains of a city of two million, the very center of which was hit by three heavy atomic bombs of the Horde. Nobody survived there. Those who managed to hide in shelters were blocked by rubble and could not get out, suffocated when oxygen ran out (venti

Not trusting any communication channels anymore, they communicated in classmates. Me, Leslie and Masa. I had a couple of days of flight to Demir, but there was still no clear plan. Hoth and six of his other guys were in the hospital. Only the other six fighters remained in my capture group. This despite the fact that Grog switched to "martial law". Fifteen bodyguards were constantly on duty in his house. Although Craib was not with them now, they are not bad fighters, and most importantly, they are waiting for our attack. Everything I knew about the system for monitoring the outer perimeter of the house said that we would not enter it quietly and suddenly. At the same time, local cops still obey the official authorities, the council of magicians for them is an exalted group of psychopaths, and the Jedi are bandits at all. Any noise they rush in five minutes and stop the attack on private property.Leslie couldn't help. Grog, after the incident with Craib, when the attackers knew his r
