This Kryptonian is Too Steady

Chapter 32: Polaris and the Lone Star

Polaris, also known as Beichen, Zigong, Ziweiyuan, refers to the star closest to the north celestial pole, located at the northern end of the earth's axis, on the five-fold extension of the line connecting Tianxuan and Tianshu in the Big Dipper.

Due to the rotation of the earth, and the North Star is just on the axis of rotation of the celestial sphere, it is stationary relative to other stars.

But because of precession, the North Star is not a star whose position never changes.

For example, the North Star referred to at this stage is a star named 'Gou Chenyi'.

In the era of Magellan's voyages, Gou Chenyi was about 8 degrees away from the North Celestial Pole, and in the 21st century, Gou Chenyi was closer to the North Celestial Pole, with an angle difference of only 40 minutes.

Astronomers calculated based on the earth's axis swing and stellar gravity that by 2100 AD, Gou Chenyi will reach the closest position directly above the North Pole, which will be only 28 minutes away from the North Celestial Pole, and then Gou Chenyi will gradually move away from the North Celestial Pole.

By 14000 AD, Vega will replace Gou Chenyi as the 'new' North Star.

Every 25,800 years, the polar star will reincarnate once. During this period, many stars have the opportunity to become the polar star, such as Shaowei Zengba, such as Youshu, such as...

And on the vertical line between the fourth celestial power of the Big Dipper and the seventh fluctuating light, there is a flickering star named 'Shenzhen Lone Star', which happens to be one of them.

…………

After parting with the handsome guy on the beach last time, Lorna found that she was having bad luck.

After getting out of the shrouded area of ​​the electromagnetic pulse, she wanted to set the destination according to the way she remembered the teaching of Cyber, and then let the yacht start driving and send herself to South Carolina.

But after starting the engine, looking at the densely packed buttons on the console, his head was as big as a bucket, and he fell into confusion.

After a random operation, although the yacht was successfully launched, the route has long been deviated to nowhere.

After three days of drifting at sea, she finally realized something was wrong.

At the speed of this yacht, it should take half a day to travel from Miami to South Calero, but she has been sailing for three days without even seeing the shadow of the land.

Realizing the fact that she had gone astray, Lorna used too much force in a rage, and broke the autopilot system with a slap...

In desperation, she had to use her ability to sense the north and south of the geomagnetic field, then control the yacht and sail to the northwest.

After five more days at sea, Lorna finally saw land, but it was not her original destination, South Carolina, but New Jersey, which is adjacent to New York.

Fortunately, there is enough food and fresh water on the yacht, so that she will not starve to death on the way.

After coming to New York, Lorna planned to hire a fishing boat to help her find the island 'Utopia' that Cyber ​​said, where the legendary X-Men is located.

In the end, sadly, she found that she was penniless.

But she, Lorna Dane, is not the kind of person who gives up easily, so she found a convenience store to work part-time, ready to save enough money to talk about it.

Unfortunately, people are unlucky to drink cold water and get stuck between their teeth.

Just a few days after work, I encountered two thugs who entered the store and robbed them.

It doesn't matter if it's just a robbery. Anyway, it's the boss who loses, and it has nothing to do with her, but I didn't think that those two **** would still want to do something to her.

Now Lorna couldn't take it any longer, she activated her ability directly and made the two of them fight, losing the most important function of a man.

The identity of the mutant was exposed, and she naturally couldn't continue to stay in the convenience store. She didn't even have time to ask the boss for her salary, so she hurried away with a few packets of potato chips.

After this incident, Lorna swore that it would be impossible to work part-time in the future, and she would never be able to work under others again in this life.

Coincidentally, the scene where she used her ability to beat the gangster was just seen by a passing mutant beauty.

After Lorna left, the mutant named Sonia Simonson trailed all the way, blocked Lorna's way in an alley, and revealed her mutant identity.

Later, Lorna was invited to visit their organization. Lorna, who had nowhere to go, agreed without any hesitation.

After a few days at the small mutant mutual aid organization, Lorna felt like home.

Everyone in it is talented, and they speak nicely. Everyone is a mutant, and they will not discriminate against each other. She likes them very much.

But the good times didn't last long. I don't know whether it was Lorna or someone else who accidentally leaked their tracks, which led to the group being targeted by the guys from the Sentinel Secret Service with noses like dogs.

On a dark and windy night for a month, more than 100 soldiers of the Sentinel Secret Service descended from the sky and launched a surprise attack on them.

These soldiers are not only specially equipped with their own weapons for mutants, but also control many mutants of fighting types to work for them through some unknown means.

With a mind and no intention, more than 20 mutants in the organization were quickly defeated and arrested, and only Lorna broke through with her own strength.

It's a pity that in this age of surveillance everywhere, she can't shake off her tail.

The two sides chased and fled for three days.

Whether physically or mentally, Lorna felt that she was reaching her limit.

'Dang dang dang—'

A dark green light surrounded the surface of both hands, Lorna's index finger and **** were hooked lightly, and the door of a Ford car next to it fell off automatically. To her ceramic bullet.

"Get out of here!"

Immediately afterwards, Lorna raised her hands, then slammed forward and roared.

The surrounding metal products, like the soldiers who heard the charging horn, invariably smashed at the dozen or so heavily armed soldiers of the Sentinel Secret Service.

Afterwards, Lorna controlled her black high-top shoes with spikes on her feet, and let herself fly, trying to get over a high wall and get rid of the group of people behind her temporarily.

However, as the elite troops of the Sentinel Secret Service, how could they, who have experienced many battles, let Lorna do as she wished.

After relying on the bunker to escape Lorna's attack, a man and a woman walked out of the soldiers. Their skin was pale, their eyes were dull, and their faces were dull, like a robot.

The blond man looked at Lorna who was soaring into the sky, his palms folded together, and an invisible wall of air was blocking her front.

Then he crossed his index fingers and shouted loudly, creating a vacuum under Lorna.

Unprepared, Lorna was caught in the violent airflow and fell straight down.

At the moment when the blond man made his move, the Asian woman holding a black-gray ceramic-based carbon fiber dagger beside him also moved at the same time.

Thirty meters away, she crossed in less than a second, leaving only an afterimage in everyone's eyes.

Looking at the dagger that was getting closer and closer to her neck, Lorna suddenly thought of a lot, including the pilot father who died in an accident, the mother who died of cancer, and the mutant friends who were caught. eyes.

Thinking back on her life, she felt that giving up might be a good choice.

It would be great if he wasn't a mutant.
