Phoenix

Phoenix – Science Fiction – Foreword The name of the virus was equina, or equina in scientific terms. B. Q. 23–49. The virus was named after the genetic engineer who developed the virus after extensive research. Scientist Equina never imagined that this virus would be able to go beyond the four walls of the laboratory, otherwise he would not have allowed anything to use his name. But this virus went outside the four walls of the laboratory, not by any mistake, not by accident—it went outside at the behest of the military. It was a very turbulent time for the world, a loveless and cruel relationship between the poor countries of the world and the developed countries. The nuclear bomb is no longer considered a weapon, it is available to everyone, anyone can use it against anyone at any moment – ​​a new type of weapon is desperately needed, just as the Equina virus catches the eye of warring generals. Although it did not cause the death of a single person in the world, but everyone knew that no virus more sure to kill people had ever been created on earth. It has never been tested on a living human but scientists knew of its dire effects. The first week of infection is undetectable, the second week begins with a mild cough and mild headache, followed by severe headache and fever within a few days. Gradually it will develop into inflammation of the brain, before the end of the week, blood will begin to flow from every pore of the body in such a way that the whole body of the person will look like a melted mass of flesh. Every organ, every drop of blood in a body infected with a single virus will be teeming with billions of equina viruses. This virus can spread hundreds of kilometers in the blink of an eye. If a virus somehow gets into the human body, there is no way for that person to survive. There is no vaccine, no way to avoid this virus. The afflicted man would die painfully and one hundred percent certain, and that was the most terrifying thing. Second class army scientists tried to research this virus.They tried to make a subtle change in the virus so that instead of being effective on all people, it only infects a specific population – so warlord generals can use it on specific people in specific countries. The world's developed countries were thinking of punishing the poor countries, the mutated equina virus was the answer to their nightmares. Little did the second-rate army scientists know that the fiendish research had failed. During a secret field test, the equina virus was released on Earth.The news that an entire island population in a remote area in Africa was wiped out in two weeks was kept a secret from the general public of the world and that secret was completely meaningless because by that time all the people of the whole world had been sentenced to death. Equina virus is transported by monsoon winds from Europe–Asia to North America and to South America via Australia. Over the next two weeks, half the world's population was wiped out. There is no comparison to the terrible terror that was born on the earth, the common people did not know that there is no escape from the terrible claws of this virus, their frantic eagerness to survive those terrible days. Terrible. Six billion people on earth were wiped out within two months, leaving only a handful of children and teenagers alive. Due to some mystery of nature, these few children-teenagers were saved from equina virus infection, no one knows, there is no one alive in the world to find out that mystery. Then two more centuries passed in the world. Descendants of those children and teenagers who survived the equina virus gave birth to a new civilization on Earth. No one has any memory of the old world, its science and history. Scattered like nomads in different parts of the world, people wander among the lost civilizations of the world. Relying on various superstitions, some instincts and the very primitive urge to survive, people try to survive in a strange world, with automatic weapons they protect their families and groups and if necessary attack and destroy other groups like ferocious animals. In big trucks, they travel around blowing dust in the red soil of the earth, looking for the logistics of survival among the lost civilizations of the people of the earth. Their own God helps them in a difficult process of survival. Or God. 1. Lord Claude Rihan was half asleep when she felt someone touch her shoulder gently. Rihan wakes up in a moment, holds the automatic weapon in his hand and asks in a low voice, who? The man said in a low voice, "I am." Rihan put the weapon down and said, O! you The man is one of them, sharing the guard duty every night. In the middle of the night, he goes around to see if everyone is doing their duty properly. Rihan said like a criminal, while sitting, sleep came to his eyes. The man made a kind of noise through his nose without answering. Rihan said, it won't happen anymore, take a look. The man made a kind of sound with his nose again and said, Come on. Rihan said in a scared voice, where? to the grouse. Grouse! Rihan was surprised and said, why to Grouse? I promise you it will never happen again. I will not sit— Ah! The man raised his hand and stopped Rihan and said, not for that. Are you awake on duty and not asleep grouse? So what are you calling for? How do I say? The man waved his hand and said, Grouse will ever tell me? Rihan nodded absentmindedly, the man was right. Grouse is their leader, responsible for so many people. For small people like them, grouse sightings are a difficult task. Still he tried, asked, you really do not know why called? Can't even guess? no Don't waste time on it now. hurry up Grouse is waiting. Rihan hesitated and said, who will do duty here? The man got a little annoyed and said, don't worry about him. Give me the weapon and you go, quickly. Rihan handed the weapon to the man, who took it and touched his forehead and then touched his lips to the magazine to show respect. It is a second-rate automatic weapon, which can be displayed from a standing position. Laser guided automatic weapons require kneeling to show respect. Rihan walked towards their dorm in the dark with a worried face. They have a total of forty-seven trucks and lorries of various sizes in their warehouse. The trucks are surrounded by barbed wire, and if a group suddenly attacks, they will not be able to enter quickly. Rihan walked and found Grouse's Loretta, it was relatively big, the engine was powerful. As Rihan knocked on the back door, it slammed open. A dim yellow light was shining inside, Grouse stepped away from the door and said, S Rihan. come inside Rihan tried to observe Grouse's facial expressions with sharp eyes, the man's face had a big beard, his eyes were fixed and expressionless, and his mind was not understood. Rihan asked with a trembling voice, you called me grouse? yes Rihan waited for Grouse to say something more, but Grouse didn't say anything, just took a short breath. Rihan hesitated and said, why did you call me? to see you Rihan said in surprise, to see me? yes I thought you were older. But you look like a child. Rihan tried to force a smile and said, "No, Your Highness Grouse, I'm not a baby boy at all." I turned seventeen last winter. I am now allowed to carry automatic weapons. Ricky said he will give me a motorbike. Eight cylinders. Grouse stared at Rihan without saying a word, Rihan was not sure if he heard his words or not. I don't know why, Rihan suddenly started to feel a kind of discomfort, a kind of suppressed fear suddenly started inside him. started to block. Grouse took another breath and said, Rihan. Say, grouse. what did you do I? Rihan was surprised and said, what should I do? Did you do anything? Rihan began to think quickly, has he done something unusual or wrong? Thirteen teased Lorrie's cheerful teenage girl a bit, pressed her against Lorry's wall and tried to kiss her, but that's what kids of this age do. Yes, it is not such a big injustice. The girl pretended to be angry but in fact she was not angry, a little later half a bottle of gasoline was thrown on her head from the top of the lorry. He laughed out loud. Can't remember? Surprised by Grouse's words, Rihan said, "No, Grouse." I can't remember anything. believe Grouse suddenly changed his voice and said sharply, then why does Lord Claude want to meet you? Rihan shuddered and looked at Grouse, as if he understood, or could not believe. Tried a few times and said, Lord Claude a-want to meet me? yes A-with me? yes with you Grouse said in a cold voice, tell me now, why? Rihan suddenly felt that there was no strength in his knees. All of those who had previously gone to see Lord Claude and never returned suddenly remembered. A bead of sweat formed on his forehead, he somehow took two steps back and leaned against the wall. Suddenly he felt that someone had absorbed the energy of his entire body. "Believe me, Grouse, I didn't do anything," he said with a trembling voice Grouse stared at Rihan for a while and said, so Rihan is true. Rihan said in a kind of bitter voice, what should I do now grouse? Grouse tried to force a smile and said, Lord Claude wants to see you and you ask me what to do? You go to meet immediately. Lord Claude is waiting for you. How to go grouse? Go to the red door of the armored car and stand, it will call you from inside. Rihan still stood touching the wall. Grouse said in a hard voice, Go Rihan. don't be late Rihan struggled to stand up straight, then turned and opened the door of the lorry and got out. Descending from the platform, he looks into the middle of their hideout, six armored cars standing in a circle, inside which is Lord Claude's own R,V,, never seen from outside. Rihan looked at the sky absentmindedly, this area was like a desert, the night sky was sparkling like crystal clear. The countless stars in the sky are shining, even after seeing them every day, the stars seem unfamiliar. The dry wind of the desert is blowing, the sound of the wind sounds like howling, for some unknown reason, a strange kind of emptiness fills Rihan's chest. Rihan stares at the sky for a few moments, who knows if it's because of the cool desert air that suddenly prickles her whole body. Rehan stepped forward, letting out a breath that was trapped in his chest. Standing in front of the big armored car, he suddenly felt very helpless. He turned his head and looked around, the large lorries and trucks in the darkness of the night seeming like gigantic prehistoric creatures. All around the barricade is dark and silent, with only a muffled hum coming from the power station. Rihan began to think that everyone was looking at him with wide eyes, hiding the darkness through the big lorry windows, everyone's eyes were full of fear. Suddenly he wanted to run away from here, but he didn't dare. He stood motionless in front of the red door of the armored car. Rihan did not know how long he was standing, suddenly the door opened, it was dark inside Rihan heard a woman's voice calling him in a low voice, come in. The back door slammed shut as Rihan came up the stairs. Rihan looked inside, a metal container with no furniture. A girl is standing right in the middle of the container, the girl's dress is very short and her toned body is visible through that dress. The girl's metallic hair fell down to her chest. The girl's eyelids are blue, her lips are bright red. Rihan couldn't figure out that the girl was beautiful as any but there was some kind of abnormality in her appearance. A belt of bullets across the girl's chest, a third-rate automatic weapon loosely held in her right hand. The girl said in a dry, hoarse voice, Rihan, spread your hands and come forward one step. Rihan suddenly recognized the girl by the sound of the voice, the girl Drina, who lived in lorry number six, had suddenly disappeared one day four years ago. What a surprise! Is Drina here? To Lord Claude? Rihan said in a tight voice, Drina! are you here we thought Drina stopped Rihan and said in a mechanical voice, come forward with both hands spread apart. Rihan stopped in his tracks and looked at Drina in shock, an expressionless face, no sign of emotion. Rihan took a breath and spread his hands on both sides and took one step forward. Drina searched Rihan's body like a skilled person, carelessly looked at his thighs, chest, back and gestured to move forward and said, come with me. Rihan started walking. Rihan opened the door of the armored car in front of Lord Claude and came out. V. T saw. A faint blue light shines in the window, with a few strange antennas on top, looking like some kind of architecture. Drina said in a low voice, go. Rihan asked with a trembling voice, where? Go ahead and you will see the door. Open the door and enter. Drina paused for a moment and said, "And listen, never look directly into Lord Claude's eyes." Rihan shook his head, said, ok, don't look. Only speak when the Lord allows you, not a single word on your own. I won't say Bow down and greet him. ok drina Never turn your back on the Lord when going out. I will not give Do not hold your head high. Rihan shook his head and said, I will not stand. O Lord Claude, O God-son shall address him. ok drina go Now go inside. Rihan hesitated for a moment and said, "Do you know why Lord Claude called me?" Drina said, no, I don't know. Rihan said in a bitter voice, no, I am very afraid. Will you wait outside for me? Drina did not answer his words and said, Go. go inside Rihan took a breath, then plucked up the courage. D. moved towards the Up the stairs is a door. The door was closed, the door opened as soon as he touched it with his hand. A light blue light is shining inside. Rihan breathed in a faint smell of stale flowers. Heart pounding in Rihan's chest, he somehow pushed the door inside and stood with his head down. Drina forbade him to look up, he didn't. He stood on the soft red carpet and looked down at his feet. And, on the other side of V. suddenly heard a kind of rustling sound of clothes – Rihan didn't dare to look up, but bowed his head in greeting. Rihan heard Lord Claude say, look at me, boy let me see your face. A heavy throat, his voice echoed through the room. Drina directly forbade looking at Lord Claude, but Rihan did not dare to disobey Lord Claude's orders. Rihan looked up at Claude, the two seeing each other for the first time. Lord Claude has flowing white hair and a beard, and wears a long white robe. Wrinkles of age on the face, eyes are amazingly blue. The look in his eyes was so intense that Rihan couldn't look at it for long, he lowered his eyes. Lord Claude asked, son, do you know why I called you? Rihan shook his head, saying, "No, Lord Claude, I don't know." Can you guess? I can't sir Claude. I can't guess. Mr. Claude was silent for a few moments and suddenly said in a cold voice, what did you do at the power station the day before yesterday? Rihan's chest suddenly heaved, he shuddered in panic and said, Lord Claude, son of God, I was wrong. I made a big mistake. Prabhu Kud raised his hand and stopped him and said, "I don't want to know that from you son – I want to know what happened there." You know everything Lord. But I want to hear from you. Rihan still remained silent, then Lord Claude said in a stern voice, say. Rihan tried a few times and said, "My duty was in front of the power station, Mr. Claude," suddenly it started making a strange sound. A few machines stopped and began to emit a sound like a signal. Then Rihan suddenly stopped talking. tell me son What happened then? I then went near the power station. Did you go to a ninth dimension machine without permission? Going unholy? If not show respect? Rihan kept his head down without speaking. Lord Claude said in a cool voice, then what happened? I checked the power station. I saw a water tube burst, water is not flowing. The station is heating up. I then – Rihan goes silent again. then? What then? Rihan raised his head and said in a sad voice, forgive me. Lord Claude – I'm sorry. Lord Claude said in a hard voice, then what? Rihan said in a broken voice, then I changed the water pipe. What did you change? The old truck had a pipe like that, open it up. What did you open with? I had a pair of pliers. Where did you get the pliers? Rihan completely broke down and said, Lord Claude, I stole from the equipment box. Why did you steal? My - my what about you Love to play with my equipment Lord Claude. I want to know how the machine works, I want to understand - Rihan's voice broke as he spoke. He fell to his knees, folded his hands and pleaded, "Forgive me, Lord Claude." O Son of God, O Merciful Lord Claude said in a soft voice, Rihan- Hearing the voice, Rihan was startled and looked at Lord Claude with hopeful eyes, say Lord. Can you shoot automatic weapons? I can Rihan said with some enthusiasm in his voice, I have been taught since I was seventeen. I am on night duty Your Highness Lord Claude. What happened to your automatic weapon? Rihan's face suddenly turned pale, his whole body shaking with fear. He bowed his head and said, "Forgive me, Lord Claude." What happened to your automatic weapons? It was jammed. What to do if the weapon is jammed? He had to honorably return it to the armory and receive a new weapon. And what did you do? Rihan raised his head for a moment then lowered his head and said, I fixed the weapon Lord Claude. How did you fix it? I opened it. I opened it and cleaned it. I applied grease to the rusted areas. Was that right then? It happened Lord Claude. Lord Claude waited a few moments and asked, son, why did your weapon jam? Rihan kept his head down without saying anything. Lord Claude said in a calm voice, answer my words son. I poured water on the weapon. Why did you pour water? to see what happens To understand how to get rust on weapons. Understand what will happen? Weapons can be protected in the future. what do you understand Rihan kept his head down without saying anything. Lord Claude asked, what have you done Rihan? you know everything You are lord Claude. You are God the Son of God. You are omniscient. You are mighty. Still, I want to hear from you, son. tell me Rihan said with a trembling voice, I broke the bullet and saw what was inside it. What is there? A black powder. What happens with that powder? A fire causes an explosion. What happened to you while taking that test? Rihan said in a low voice, you are omniscient. you know My hand was burnt. did you go to the doctor No, Your Highness. Why didn't you go? I was scared. Rihan stood with her head bowed on her knees as Lord Claude walked up to her. No one spoke for a long time. Once Lord Claude took a breath and said in a weary voice, "Son, do you know what happened in this world?" Rihan shook his head, said, no sir. i don't know There were once six billion people on this earth. Rihan raised his head and looked at Lord Claude with detailed eyes, said, six billion? yes One day they all died. Why do you know? I don't know Lord Claude. "For people like you," said Lord Claude sternly. For their curiosity. Lord Claude remained silent for a while and said, "That civilization of man is over, son." Now a new civilization is born on earth. Curiosity has no place in this civilization. I was wrong Lord. We have dedicated our lives to save people in this civilization. We know the Lord. We are grateful for that. We have become your Lord. I have become your God. We are here to help you. your kindness Your majesty. I, Lord Claude, have been protecting you for nearly half a century. No one has disappointed me in this long time. It came exactly as I wanted. you- Rihan's whole body suddenly trembled with fear. A strange hardness filled the throat of Prabhu Kud, you let me down for the first time. You played with the cooling of nuclear reactors. Do you know what a nuclear reactor is? Do you know what radiation is? Do you know what core maintenance is? Don't know – but still you put your hand there! Silly boy, we could all be wiped out by the intense radiation! Rihan didn't say a word, bowed his head and sat on his knees. Lord Claude said again, You set fire to the gunpowder. Did you destroy the automatic weapon? You opened it! Do you know what that means? Rihan shook his head and said, "I don't know, Lord." i'm stupid i'm stupid I despise It means you have rejected our hard-earned method. Rihan shook his head and said, no sir. I didn't want to deny it. I made a mistake. I made a big mistake. Lord Claude took a breath and suddenly said in a soft voice, why did you do this son? Why did you break this rule? Rihan said almost desperately at the hint of tender caress in Lord Claude's neck, I felt What did you think? This machine is made by man. Why should we worship man-made machines? Why don't we try to understand the machine? Did you think so? Yes, the Son of God. I thought this rule was redundant. I have tested and found that instruments work even if they are not worshipped. Have you checked it? G. His Excellency Lord Claude. Lord Claude said, you know you have committed a very great crime. You distrust the process upon which our entire civilization is built. disrespected Rihan said in a bitter voice, I did not understand, Your Highness. You have disrespected the machine that we depend on to survive. I made a mistake. Rihan bowed his head and said, you punish me. Lord Claude looked at Rihan for a few moments and asked in a cold voice, what punishment do you want? I will take whatever punishment you give me. Lord Claude took a breath and said sternly, I sentence you to death. Rihan trembled with terrible fear. He folded his hands and said in a bitter voice, "No, Lord, no." Give me some other punishment. let me live Give it just one chance Lord Claude stared at Rihan with a fixed gaze. Rihan bowed his head and said in a broken voice, forgive me Lord. excuse me I was wrong, and I won't be. Give me just one chance Rihan looked up and saw that there was no one in the room. Lord Claude has left the house. Rihan stood up like a madman and almost moaned, Lord Claude! Lord—Lord— Suddenly Rihan felt two people holding him tightly from either side. Rihan turned his head and saw two girls with painted faces. The metallic colored hair is tied in a bun on the top of the head. The two girls are each holding an automatic weapon. Rihan jerked like a madman to free himself, but could not. Just then someone hit him on the back of the head. Everything became dark before his eyes. His heart groaned in deep sorrow. Is this what death is? .
