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

On the outer perimeter of the refugee camp at the Gofhall launch site, another conflict broke out between migrants and locals, quickly ending the altercation, the parties suddenly began to shoot from machine guns. The main body of border guards and police rushed there, fearing that it could be an assault from the Hofhols' self-defense units. Maskalian monkeys with weapons hidden in the hem of their gray cloaks, along with all the migrants, pressed close to the building where Bounty was kept, shouting “Glory!” and "Saviour!" With an unexpected throw, they crushed the guards, knowing well the plan of the building, they went down to the rest room with lightning speed, clearing their way in the corridors with long cleavers, tested in robberies in Gofhall. Chopping up the officers on duty at the consoles, they blew up the door to the rest room. The thugs had not only a grenade, but also a dozen submachine guns,Wagner knew that he would not see the denouement with his own eyes and left the

A month after the nuclear war on the Great Continent, the situation began to more or less clear up. In Bormunt, a small town on the left bank of the Ramira, which became the capital of the self-proclaimed Anarchist Republic, covering all the uninfected territories of eastern Lavender, from the Gray Mountains in the west to the Swamps in the east, from the river in the north to the sands in the south, in total - a square of 500x500 km. , the Council of Commanders gathered to discuss the situation and plans.The Republic was governed by direct Internet democracy - all residents (indigenous and refugees), about a million people, had their own profile in the Republican Network and the right to vote on any issue of governing the country, without representatives. The code of laws was adopted by such a general vote for five years, without the possibility of change during this period. The Network Moderator, civilian ministers and territorial leaders were elected for a year without the possibi

Gilats looked at Thomson, and saw Wagner hanging in a noose in the bathroom, his tongue hanging out, his face blue and his eyes bulging. He recalled how they sent him a video, how they removed the guy from the rope, put him on the bed in the hotel, saying that there were no signs of violence. Sources gave him the info, how it really happened. And Gilats, looking at the powerful hands of the general, imagined how this strong man in an expensive suit dragged the frail body of the boy along the floor, as he held it, while his fighters put on a rope.Now, looking into the square face of the CEO of Galaxy Sec, the co-chairman of the State Construction Commission with an effort made an indifferent and even benevolent look:- At least you know what kind of hematogen Powell is preparing there instead of Bounty?- He calls his project "Twix". I only know software. He wants to combine fiery software shells with what is left of the New Testament and cover from above with a united circuit with co

- Where are you stuck? - severely met my appearance from behind a closet in the old Wolverine hotel, she got bored, sitting on a shabby sofa, watching TV news about the death of the Bounty.- Dropped by Wagner, he had an exam.- Passed? Masa asked quietly, becoming more serious.- Passed. Satisfied?- Of course. I believed in him. The Love Exam is difficult, for example, you are not ready for it. Bounty, over there, was not ready either. This chocolate loved only himself. From people he needed only their boundless love for him and admiration. He does not care that for this, he had to turn people into cattle. Don't laugh - I love people. For real. I do what they will hate me for, what they will kick me out and curse me for, everything that people need to be people and grow.What makes you think they need it? There is an easy way to find out. What people are willing to pay for is what they really need. Everything that is not in demand is just a wishlist. Your games of freedom are not in

Maat was flying in a glass-case-like mini-metro that connected the Bahdi spaceport to the Belau lake and oasis, located in an uncontaminated area. A hundred kilometers, sparkling like a bunch of candies in gold pieces, the train rushed by in 40 minutes, allowing soldiers, officers and civilian personnel of the base of intergalactic peacekeepers to leave the garrison in the evening or on weekends and relax near the water in the shade of palm trees, without protective equipment. Three new hotel buildings, restaurants, sports and massage parlors - everything was built to the glory, as in the best resorts in the universe.In the month and a half that the military settled here, the Bahdi Cosmodrome turned into a considerable city. About 100,000 inhabitants of Parta came here after finding work or humanitarian aid. For them, several neighborhoods of temporary housing were also rapidly erected. And these were not dull rows of tents and wagons to the horizon. Everything that Wallos and his fe
