Chapter 32 The North Star and the Lone Star

The North Star, also known as Beichen, Zigong, and Ziweiyuan, refers to a star closest to the North Heavenly Pole. It is located at the northern end of the Earth's axis and is on the five-fold extension line of the connection between Tianxuan and Tianshu among the North Dipper.

Due to the rotation of the earth, the North Star is on the axis of the rotation of the celestial sphere, so it is still relatively still than other stars.

But due to precession, the North Star is not a certain star whose position will never change.

For example, the Polaris referred to at this stage is a star called "Gou Chenyi".

In the era of Magellan's navigation, Gou Chenyi was about 8 degrees away from the North Tianji. In the 21st century, Gou Chenyi was closer to the North Tianji, with an angle difference of only 40 points.

Astronomers calculate based on the swaying of the earth axis and the gravitational force of the star. By 2100 AD, Gou Chenyi will reach the closest position directly above the North Pole, which will be only 28 minutes from the North Pole, and then Gou Chenyi will gradually move away from the North Pole.

By 14,000 AD, Vega will replace Gou Chenyi as the "new" North Star.

Every 25,800 years, the pole star will reincarnate once. During this period, many stars have the opportunity to become the North Star, such as Shaowei Zengba, Right Shu, etc.

On the mid-vernal line between the fourth Tianquan and the seventh Yaoguang, the Beidou Seven Star, there is a star called "Tiansha Lonely Star", which happens to be one of them.

……………………

After parting with the handsome guy on the beach last time, Lorna found that she was in trouble.

After leaving the enveloping area of ​​electromagnetic pulses, she wanted to set up her destination according to the way Cyber ​​taught in her memory, then let the yacht start driving and send herself to South Carolina.

But after starting the engine, looking at the dense buttons on the operating table, my head was as big as a bucket and I fell into confusion.

After a random operation, although the yacht was successfully started, the route had long been so far away that it was unknown where it went.

After drifting on the sea for three days, she finally realized something was wrong.

At the speed of this yacht, it should be half a day to go from Miami to South Caroliro, but she has been sailing for three days and has not even seen the shadow of land.

Understanding the fact that he had gone astray, Lorna was furious and used too much force, and slapped the automatic driving system again...

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

After drifting on the sea for another five days, Lorna finally saw the land, but it was not her original destination, South Carolina, but New Jersey, adjacent to New York.

Fortunately, she had enough food and fresh water on the yacht so that she would not starve to death on the way.

After arriving in New York, Lorna planned to hire a fishing boat to help her find the island "utopia" mentioned by Cyber, the legendary X-Men.

As a result, she was sadly discovered that she was already penniless.

But Lorna Dane is not the kind of person who gives up easily. She immediately found a convenience store to work and was about to save enough money before talking about it.

Unfortunately, drinking cold water can get stuck between your teeth when you are unlucky.

Just a few days after working, two gangsters came into the store and robbed them.

It's okay if it's just a robbery, but the boss is the one who loses it anyway, and it has little to do with her, but unexpectedly those two bastards actually want to touch her.

Now Lorna couldn't bear it anymore and directly activated her ability, causing the two to fight and lose the most important function of a man.

The mutant's identity was exposed, so it was naturally impossible for her to continue staying in the convenience store. She didn't even have time to ask her boss for her salary, so she hurriedly left after taking a few bags of potato chips.

After this incident, Lorna swore that it would be impossible to work in the future and would never be able to work under someone else's hands in this life.

Coincidentally, the scene of her using her abilities and beating the bandits happened to be seen by a passing mutant beauty.

After Lorna left, the mutant named Sonia Simonson walked all the way, blocking Lorna's way in an alley, and revealing her identity as a mutant.

Then he invited Lorna to visit their organization. Lorna, who had nowhere to go, agreed without much hesitation.

After staying in this small mutant mutual aid organization for a few days, Lorna felt like she was home.

Everyone inside is full of talents, and they speak nicely. Everyone is mutant and will not discriminate against each other. She likes the inside very much.

But the good times didn't last long. I don't know if it was Lorna or others who accidentally leaked their traces, which led to the group of guys from the Sentinel Special Service, who had a more erotic nose than a dog.

On a dark and windy night, more than a hundred soldiers from the Sentinel Special Service descended from the sky and launched a raid on them.

This group of soldiers not only equipped with their own weapons against mutants, but also controlled many combat-type mutants to work hard for them through some unknown means.

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

Unfortunately, in this era where surveillance is everywhere, she can never get rid of the tail that follows her.

Both sides chased and fled, and it has been three days.

Whether it is physical or mental, Lorna feels that she is almost at her limit.

‘Dangdangdang--’

The dark green light surrounded the surface of both hands. Lorna's index finger and middle finger were gently hooked, and the door of a Ford car next to her automatically fell off, quickly blocking her and blocking the ceramic bullets shot at her.

"Get out!"

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

The metal products around seemed to hear the horn of the charge, and they smashed the soldiers from the dozen fully armed sentry special service units opposite each other.

Then, Lorna controlled her feet to install black high-top shoes, making herself fly up, trying to cross a high wall and temporarily get rid of the group of people behind her.

However, as the elite troops of the Sentinel Special Service, how could they, who have experienced many battles, make Lorna come true?

After relying on the shelter to avoid 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 blonde man looked at Lorna who soared into the sky, closed her palms, and an invisible wall of air blocked her.

Then he crossed his index fingers, shouted loudly, and created a vacuum zone below Lorna.

Caught off guard, Lorna was swept by the violent airflow and fell straight down.

The moment the blonde man took action, the Asian woman next to him holding a black and gray ceramic-based carbon fiber dagger also moved at the same time.

The distance of thirty meters was crossed by her in less than a second, leaving only a afterimage in everyone's eyes.

Looking at the dagger getting closer to her neck, Lorna suddenly thought of a lot of things. The pilot's father who died of the accident, the mother who died of cancer, and the mutant friends who were arrested gradually closed their tired eyes.

Looking back on her life, she felt that giving up may also be a good choice.
