Chapter 275 The Drama Begins
When Mei returned to the Fire Chaser headquarters in a transport helicopter, it was already early morning on the second day.
Although the time difference played a factor, they spent a solid two hours, which is irrefutable.
"Send Qianjie immediately to the First Science Department."
"Yes, doctor."
"It's too late..."
Mei pretended to be in deep thought, and out of the self-defense instinct of some kind of creature, her eyes unconsciously glanced at Yiwen Jielin.
But she couldn't help but consider whether such behavior would alert the other party in advance. Therefore, she suppressed this instinct with reason and just pretended to stare at her toes and think.
"Mikael only has 69 hours to fight the Eleventh Herrscher, and the completion rate of the Blank Key is less than 70%... Forget it, we don't have that much time, we have to take a gamble!"
Is the so-called 69 hours a real number? May was extremely skeptical.
It’s not that this number is falsely high, so the situation is more urgent, but the fact is exactly the opposite - although the explanation given by Mikael is very scientific, what energy transmission has losses, and what is the absorption of energy by the power of the Eleventh Herrscher? Conversion has advantages…
In the end, when the Herrscher's core output power was basically the same, Mikael was unable to break through the barrier formed by the light curtain. He could only fight like this until his physical strength was exhausted and his body could no longer maintain full power for a long time. Can output.
However, although Mikael did not say it explicitly, Mei felt that he had other ways and means to solve the eleventh collapse, but the reason why he did not do that was actually very simple——
Prior to this, the plan to use the Blank Key as bait on P-21 to attract individual attacks from the Tenth Herrscher, and finally catch them all, had been established. However, compared to the situation in the script, due to Mikael's extra variable, even though the P-21 was alone in the Pacific Ocean, it was still within his support range.
This has caused an extremely bad effect - knowing that Mikael can provide reinforcements, it is questionable whether the Tenth Herrscher will use all his strength to attack P-21.
However, as the saying goes, someone will hand you a pillow when you are dozing off. There is no doubt that the Eleventh Herrscher is that pillow. As a teammate of the Tenth Herrscher, it "tied" Mikael, making it impossible for him to support P- twenty one.
This seems to be beneficial to the Herrscher, but for humans, it has also become the key to the implementation of that plan.
Of course, there is another thing that poses a great threat to both the Tenth Herrscher and the plan itself, and it must be kept in a "non-operational state".
But in that case, it would be tantamount to fighting against the odds.
Mei bit her teeth lightly, pounded her palms, then exhaled a breath, and ordered calmly as usual, as if the life and death experience of the previous few hours had not brought any fatigue or fear to her:
"On the 17th, immediately ask Velvet to collect the samples, resources and materials for the Blank Key experiment, and at the same time open the Second God Key..."
"Are you going to use the Second God's Key? But what if something unexpected happens during the two-hour charging time?"
As a puppet of the Herrscher, Yi Wenjielin immediately raised doubts, as if such "heartfelt words" would make her look less like the individual of the Tenth Herrscher.
But there is no doubt that such a performance is too much, not to mention that Mei and Mikael have already doubted her, just such a performance is enough to make people look at her.
However, if you think that May and Mikael will put all their eggs in the specious "basket" of Evelyn, it would be a bit underestimated. After all, the Fire Chaser Moth does not have a certain Herrscher individual. .
So, Mei turned her head in an extremely natural manner, staring at the tip of Evan Jielin's nose - such a gaze neither made people feel ignored, nor made people feel that she was being overly noticed and offended.
She explained in a slightly tired voice:
"It will take at least three hours to fly from here to P-21. The time that Mikael can hold on is limited. We must save every minute and every second. By the way, the transmission of the Second God Key may be harmful to Aldemir and the others. Such ordinary soldiers cause irreversible damage, so they still take the transport plane and we take the first step."
"Well, then there will be a three-hour defense gap period..."
Yiwen Jielin pursed her lips, not knowing what she was thinking. She realized that she seemed to have missed something important. It was not until four or five seconds later that she covered her mouth and reminded:
"Ordinary people...but, Dr. Mei, you..."
Those soldiers are ordinary people, isn't Dr. Mei?
"I don't care about that anymore!"
Seeing Kevin raising his head in despair and wanting to persuade him, Mei immediately expressed his stance:
"My Honkai energy is very adaptable. It's not that I can't take a gamble."
So there was no more objection.
Mei went on to issue an order on the 17th:
"Ask Hua and Sakura to stay with Velvet and go to P-21 with us immediately... Forget it, Sakura will stay at the headquarters to deal with emergencies. Mebius also needs to solve the problem of Thousand Calamities first. It seems that only We can mobilize Hua Yiren. Finally...the order regarding Aldemir's troops needs to be revised..."
"Please, Doctor."
"Change the nature of their mission from guard mission to escort mission."
The transfer of fusion warriors is stored in the anti-entropy internal system, and only Mikael and May have permission to view it.
But the mobilization of Aldemir's team of ordinary soldiers was based on May's "arbitrary power" and was not approved by the "parliament", but its mobilization records were viewable by a large number of people.
Therefore, their mission objectives must be kept "confidential", which is in line with "normal logic".
Otherwise, the Tenth Herrscher, with the collective efforts of all, may not fail to discover such a logical loophole.
But why is it an escort mission?
"Doctor, may I ask what the escort target is..."
The voice of No. 17 was a little hesitant. Although it is artificial intelligence, if it comes to the individual who knows May best in the world, it is definitely... well, the second one... it seems not to be the third one... no, it is probably the fourth one... well, it is definitely one of the five individuals who know May best.
Because of this, looking at the possibility deduced by the established model, No. 17 is certainly not surprised, but it cannot be said that there is no "shock" at all.
"Well, call the parliament, mainly the old men from SEELE, and order Aldemir to escort them to P-21. On the surface, ask them to go to a place where they won't be disturbed to discuss the current riots around the world, and attach some illegal evidence we obtained in Rhine City."
"Understood, Doctor."
For No. 17, who knows almost everything, it is not difficult to see that May's move is intended to take the opportunity to eliminate dissidents-
For the Tenth Herrscher, they received news that the Blank Key has not been completed, Mikael was held back by the Eleventh Herrscher, and May used the phase transmission ability of the Second God Key, which can only be used once every two hours, too early.
During this period, P-21's defense was extremely weak. Kevin, the most combat-capable one, has not recovered from the weakness brought by the restraining barrier; Weiwei must leave the Second God Key at the headquarters, and naturally cannot carry a bunch of strange "props"; Aponia's spirit is used to seal and appease the darkness in the deepest place...
As for Hua? What combat power does that little girl have?
Based on the above analysis, the two hours when the Second God Key cannot be used is undoubtedly the best time to launch an attack.
Since the attack is launched, Aldemir, as a Herrscher, must not be absent... and those councillors are like chicken ribs to the Herrschers, and they probably won't care about killing a few more people, but it's a pity for those warriors.
But for Ewen Jielin and Kevin, Mei has a different and logical argument:
"We are not at the headquarters. If the Tenth Herrscher wants to stir up trouble, it is very likely to use these unstable elements, but if we directly put them under house arrest in the headquarters, it will give people a reason to criticize. Therefore, before we complete the research and development of the Blank Key and defeat the Eleventh Herrscher, and can concentrate on dealing with the Tenth Herrscher, we should keep them by our side."
At this point, all preparations have been made, and the baits that should be thrown have been thrown. If you want to arrange it more properly, then carefully examine it, there may be places that can be adjusted and optimized.
However, too much is as bad as too little. In this drama that is about to begin, although Mei and Mikael have dominated the process of the drama to a certain extent, they dare not regard themselves as "directors". After all, they are just performing on the stage.
Since it is a performance, it is necessary to remember the principle that too much is as bad as too little.
For Mei, her performance should be based on the rush of time, so it is impossible to arrange everything in a comprehensive manner.
Although... many of the lines she just read out, many of the repetitions, were repeatedly pondered over the previous days and nights.
…………
"Oh? Qianjie? Hehehe... Hahahaha! What a rare guest!"
Mebius stuck the sharp blade into the handle, pinched it with two fingers and turned it casually, as if it was a pencil without the ability to hurt.
She waited for a long time but did not wait for the man's answer, no roar, no anger, no sound.
She nodded with satisfaction, although she was still more accustomed to Qianjie's unruly appearance.
But this way, it would be easier for her to perform the operation next.
"Klein, help me get him on the operating table."
Her voice fell into darkness, and it seemed that there was no response. Of course, the person whose name she called did not exist in the intrinsic world at this moment, and should not have received a response.
But... she was not calling that Klein.
Half a minute later, with a strange mechanical twisting sound, a figure who was not tall enough to reach the operating table walked out from behind her.
"Doctor, is the No. 1 operating table still not used?"
Mebius paused while searching for the file.
"Hmph..."
Her attitude made "Klein" a little puzzled, so she asked again:
"Doctor, other operating tables..."
"Why do you want to use that table so much?"
Mebius lowered his head and looked through the documents on the tablet, asking without raising his head.
"According to the work rules you set for me the day before yesterday when I left the factory - always taking work efficiency as the first principle, I think that your not allowing me to use the No. 1 operating table has reduced my work efficiency by 0.98%..."
"Enough..."
Mebius was about to get angry, but she groaned for a few seconds, and her anger gradually subsided. She asked calmly:
"Then how much do you think your work efficiency has decreased by arguing with me about this issue?"
"Uh...work efficiency has dropped by one percent...Okay, doctor, I understand..."
Klein's body flashed with a green arc, and using magnetic levitation technology, it controlled the stretcher truck with Qianjie lying on it and entered the operating room No. 3.
Mebius did not follow him immediately, but looked through a pile of files for a long time. It was not until an hour later that Qianjie's weak and irritable yelling came from the operating room, and she put down her heavy words. The tablet, stretched slightly——
"Sure enough, even after the permissions were updated, all the physical examination records of Qianjie were still unavailable... Unfortunately, the physical examination was conducted by Sipaxi, and he was very strict... Is it because Qianjie did not conduct a physical examination, or was it my boss? My friends Mei and Mikael deleted the records..."
She knows that this so-called truth actually has an impact on defeating Honkai... It cannot be said that it has no impact, but it is probably very small. Otherwise, Mei and Mikael would not hide it.
That kind of concealment is probably a kind of protection of his identity, and it seems to prevent him from being ostracized because of this - you don't need to know what he is, in short, he looks like a human being, that's enough.
But this is what drives Mebius crazy - she is like a child who receives a gift at Christmas. Although she knows the weight of the gift as soon as she weighs it, she still feels itchy and can't help but want to guess what it is. something.
And this time, it's the perfect opportunity.
"Stop making noise!"
Mebius walked into the operating room twirling the knife.
"Tsk...it's so embarrassing, Qianjie...you actually have such a day?",
He was naked from the waist up and was firmly tied to the operating table with chains by Klein.
This level of restraint was something that he could easily break free of, but... well, the muscles all over his body were tense, but he couldn't break free of the shackles.
The thousand calamities at this moment were far weaker than the moment when he came down from school after being tied to a cross for countless years.
After all, he could still have a fight with Mikael at that time and kill an emperor-level Honkai Beast.
Now he can be made to obey just by relying on the iron chain.
However, although he is annoying, he is not good enough.
Mebius tilted his lips and snorted:
"Aren't you anxious? I heard from Kevin's temporary report that you fainted the moment you came into contact with the light curtain."
"What am I anxious about?"
Qianjie frowned, looking unconcerned.
"Oh? Do you think Mikael can easily defeat the Eleventh Herrscher? Hahahaha...hahahahaha!"
"What are you laughing at? You can't speak, can you, Mebius!"
"Have you never thought about why Kevin just felt extremely weak, but you fainted and can't recover even now?"
"..."
"If Mikael comes into contact with that light curtain, the least severe result will be the same as yours..."
"Let me go! Let me go..."
Qianjie began to struggle violently.
"Hey! Klein, shut his mouth!"
"Ah...oh..."
"Listen to me quietly, Qianjie. If you want to fight against that thing, you simply can't do it now. However, I can let you do it, and only I can make you do it - you only need to pay some A trivial price, tell me some trivial truth..."
"Woo! Woo!"
"It seems that I agreed... Get ready to start the super transformation surgery..."
Mebius began to sterilize the scalpel.
"Ah, that's right! I suddenly remembered something - the guy you want to fuse with is quite destined to be with you. Yes, it was the one you killed with your own hands, the end-level Honkai Beast, Feitian ...Hmph, I can only imagine how frustrated that woman was when she found out that there was another person who had fused the super-changing factor of a final-level Honkai Beast."
Mebius glanced at his mouth disdainfully, and then snorted twice more as if he didn't feel it was enough.
