Weather Witch (Part 2)
However, compared to the selection of the subject of the "Weather Witch", the work of drawing a complete geological Weather Model of the earth has been very slow. After all, the foundation is weak and there is not enough funding and scientific researchers to complete the project.
The United States is hailed as a beacon of humanity for a reason. With only 6% of the world's population, it enjoys nearly 40% of the world's resources. Such abundant material conditions are enviable. Some people who go out to see the world are so dazzled by its allure that they don't want to go home. This is why the United States, which practices "happy education," has still become a world power. In addition to plundering the world's resources with the US dollar, they also use those resources to attract talent from all over the world to support them.
Furthermore, we can't allow other research institutions to halt their ongoing projects to pave the way for the Divine Spear Bureau. Stopping some projects would mean all the initial investment was wasted.
Therefore, the Divine Spear Bureau. has been slowly advancing the project with its own funds and resources until news of the alien invasion came. Wartime regulations ordered all resources to be directed towards the Divine Spear Bureau., allowing the Weather Model to be developed rapidly in a short period of time.
"The term 'witch' is too Westernized, so we've found a new name for her from mythological texts: 'Rain Master'," Zheng Xian said.
Somewhere within the country, Mutant codenamed Rain Master is manipulating the atmospheric circulation, breaking up the impending continuous rain and preventing the flood-prone precipitation from reaching a sufficient scale, or diverting it to water-scarce areas.
Her entire body was encased in silver-gray armor, with only her black hair exposed to the air, fluttering in the wind.
This suit of armor represents the highest achievement of the Divine Spear Bureau. in Exoskeleton Armor technology. In addition to the functions of the mechanical Exoskeleton Armor itself, it can also act as an amplifier to amplify her abilities and is also a personal intelligent terminal. Based on the data calculated by headquarters, it can determine the extent to which she needs to do things. Otherwise, dispelling an impending flood in a place could cause a year-long drought instead, which would be counterproductive.
The Exoskeleton Armor's energy comes from the Rain Master himself. Electromagnetic Cells continuously draw Electromagnetic Force from the air to power the armor. While not as advanced as the low-temperature cold nuclear fusion technology of Stark's Arc Reactor, it's not inferior in terms of technology. Furthermore, the gathered Electromagnetic Force covers the outer layer of the Rain Master 'Exoskeleton Armor, forming an electromagnetic barrier that can withstand a certain degree of energy weapons and metal projectiles, and is almost immune to Mind Stone abilities.
The Weather Witch Project, besides strategic considerations, also involves the intervention of the Rain Master. Favorable weather will no longer be just a beautiful expectation, but a tangible reality. Wouldn't it be better to use the profits from increased grain production and the funds saved from flood and drought relief for economic development?
At this moment, the Rain Master is raising her hands high, and streaks of lightning strike the sky from her wrists. Air currents swirl around her, influencing the magnetic field to control changes in the air currents, thereby altering the weather in a region for a certain period.
"New orders!"
A short-haired woman approached Rain Master. She was wearing the same armor, but her suit was painted black. She said, "Headquarters orders: suspend all current operations and return to headquarters immediately to await further instructions."
The Rain Master withdrew his hands and said, "I've almost finished regulating the atmosphere in this area; the remaining magnetic field energy will continue my work."
The short-haired woman nodded. After confirming her coordinates with the Cloud City headquarters via communicator, her eyes, hidden behind the visor of her armored helmet, were shrouded in a layer of black energy, allowing her to perceive the essence of space. This short-haired woman, codenamed Vector, was Divine Spear Bureau agent, Mutant, and the nature of her ability was unknown, manifesting as spatial teleportation.
After activating her ability, the neural transmission terminal attached to the back of Vector's neck directly transmits the data calculated by the armor into her brain, making the transmission more accurate.
A black space suddenly appeared, swallowing Vector and Rain Master. The next moment, a black ring with a diameter of three meters appeared on an open space in Cloud City. Inside was empty darkness. After the darkness faded, Vector and Rain Master appeared.
We need your abilities.
Upon meeting Rain Master for the first time, Zheng Xian went straight to the point. "Right now, over New York in the United States, alien invaders have opened a spatial portal, and an unknown number of alien troops are poised to invade Earth."
As he spoke, Zheng Xian pulled up a virtual screen. Under the azure sky, a portal with a starry background was particularly conspicuous. A steady stream of aliens poured out of it in airships. A person controlling lightning and a warrior wearing a red exoskeleton were fighting back, but their efforts were just a drop in the ocean. Some of them always managed to escape their attacks and land in the city, where they then carried out Carnage.
"Shall we head to New York now?" After all, Rain Master was just an ordinary Mutant who hadn't received rigorous training, and sometimes he would show a lack of professionalism.
Dr. Kalis Skrulls holding a tablet, said, "There's no need to go to New York. It's a dangerous place now. The Chitauri army, while not the best in space, is still beyond the capabilities of Earth's technology. Besides, your existence is a top secret of the Divine Spear Bureau. and this nation, far more valuable than a nuclear weapons launch site. You can't be exposed to the public."
Everyone knows what kind of United States the United States is. They are capable of doing anything, even things that are unthinkable. One presidential candidate is a seasoned pervert who still makes no attempt to restrain his behavior in public, under the spotlight and cameras. This gives you an idea of how despicable this country is.
Once they learn of the Weather Witch's plan and the existence of the Rain Master, they will try every means to obtain her, and if they cannot, they will destroy her completely.
"I see."
The Rain Master nodded. "Then what do I need to do?"
"Connect your armor to the supercomputer in Cloud City. We've already calculated all the data; it will tell you what to do," Dr. Kalis said.
The wireless transmission technology of the Divine Spear Bureau is already very sophisticated and advanced, but the connection between the Rain Master armor and the supercomputer still requires a special cable, which shows how massive the data must be.
After reading the data, Rain Master knew what she was capable of and how powerful she truly was. If she wanted, she could create catastrophic weather changes on a global scale, destroying the ecological environment upon which humanity depends for survival within a year.
However, that would be inseparable from the Weather Model that the Divine Spear Bureau. built with the resources of the entire nation.
Just like in the butterfly effect, where a butterfly flapping its wings causes changes in the air system that can develop into a tornado, she is that butterfly. S. H. I. E. L. D., and Divine Spear Bureau. finds the laws governing the development of things so that she can flap her wings at the right time, in the right place, and with just the right amount of force.
The development of things follows certain patterns, but there are also unpredictable "variables." The Divine Spear Bureau made her play the role of this variable; she is the "error" in the movement of the atmosphere.
Given the right person, the Divine Spear Bureau. can create a Rain Master at any time and give her this atmospheric model. She is not the only one; outside the Divine Spear Bureau., she is just a slightly more powerful Mutant.
