[Chapter 37: Chilling Cicada Awakening] With such a high spiritual power guide, I may be the only one after the marshal
Inside the Royal Palace of the Boero Emperor.
The man in a white costume leaned on the sofa, and the light brain in front of him was obviously projecting a different image.
"That black-haired boy is Ye Zhao?" He asked the guard beside him in some surprise.
"Hui Yu XiΓ , it is the second son of the Ye family, Ye Zhao." Konoe was actually a little incredulous when he said this, after all, that young master was a well-known waste wood in the empire, and although he was a guide, his spiritual power was a rare E-class.
"That's ......," Gilbert stared thoughtfully at the two on the light screen. This is the image from Ludwig's secret guard after he forcibly ran to the Gavin Military Academy that day, and Ludwig embraced a teenager, which was a rare tenderness.
"What kind of man do you think Luther was?" He asked suddenly.
Konoe was stunned for a moment, and then quickly replied, "The Shogun is very strong, and he is the military god of our empire. β
"Strong?" Gilbert nodded, affirming the statement.
He turned off his light brain, apparently losing interest in the pictures. "Whoever it is, Luther likes it."
"Eins," said His Majesty the Emperor, "I can't wait to attend Luther's wedding." β
The guard, who was called **Ince, silently lit a wax to the general in his heart.
God knows, the emperor who is heavily controlled by his younger brother has been looking forward to his marriage for many years.
"Eins, what do you think I should wear on Luther's engagement day?"
"You look good in whatever you wear, Your Majesty."
"Well, you're right!"
β¦β¦
The windows were tightly covered by heavy curtains, and the heavy gasps of men were constantly heard from a dimly lit room in the General's Palace.
Ludwig propped his hands on the table, and soon the sweat dripped into a small puddle on the table.
The previous injuries were long gone, and if he had been in the past, he would never have left the front line because of these minor injuries. However, the other party did it deliberately against him, or inadvertently led him, and his sentinel senses had been greatly disturbed since that day.
He shook his head, trying to get rid of the strangeness that the sensory contamination had inflicted on him, but it was in vain. The constant phantoms and noises in his head made him have a splitting headache, and this qiΔ was even more obvious since he had seen Ye Zhao.
Except for him, there were only two attending physicians who knew about it, and Ludwig made it impossible for them to say anything anyway.
In the past few days, he has been busy with the same thing from the palace to the general's mansion - his engagement banquet with Ye Zhao not long after. Hardly anyone noticed that their general-sama had locked himself in a room isolated from white noise for days on end, and everyone in the mansion was in a hurry about their own business.
Because it was a time of war, the prince's engagement banquet was not as popular as expected, and some etiquette could be reduced, which also made Ludwig breathe a sigh of relief.
The injuries he was taken a few days ago had already moved the army's heart, and if it was rumored that the general had lost his senses at this time, he might not cause any kind of uproar, he only hoped that this matter could be suppressed for as long as he could, and that there would be no chaos at the banquet a few days later.
After a while, he turned off the white noise device and sent a communication request to the Far Star Front under pressure.
At first, a messenger answered, and after confirming that it was Ludwig, the other party quickly transferred to Horn, the acting general, according to his request.
"Horn," the Admiral's face was stern, "and give me a report on the movements of the Federation Army today......"
After explaining everything that should have been explained to the other party, Ludwig cut off the communication with a gloomy face.
Michelle withdrew.
As the supreme commander of the Federation who fought with the Empire on the Far Star Battlefield this time, the other party actually withdrew to the Federation not long after he was wounded and left the front line.
This may have been a good thing for the Imperial soldiers on the front lines, but to Ludwig, it was too weird.
As the man's henchman, Michelle did this...... Most likely, there is some kind of conspiracy involved.
If there is a war that Ludwig will never forget in his life, it is definitely the battle with Hilton Rhodes, the current military commander of the Federation, twenty years ago. The war was a humiliation that he could never erase in his life, and it was also a heavy blow in the history of the empire, with two main generals killed and one wounded, and Ludwig not only suffered the greatest defeat in that war, but also lost his best friend who had been fighting side by side.
Cunning and tough, that man is one of the toughest opponents the Empire has ever faced!
To be able to call that man's henchman, Michelle is obviously not a fuel-efficient lamp either.
Ludwig was thinking about it when the light brain on the table in front of him suddenly received a message.
Ye Zhao sent it.
The message showed an address, and the person seemed to want to show him something.
Without much thought, Ludwig took a shower and hurried in the direction he had set. If he's not mistaken, it seems to be ...... The Empire's most famous mecha researcher, Dio Lande's research center.
***
Ye Zhao watched Dior's nimble hands beating on the control platform, the value of each item was accurately set to the best, and the huge display screen above the control platform was slowly but steadily rising one by one.
It won't be long before this mecha will be resurrected under Dior's hands.
Mecha "Chilling Cicada".
Ludwig quickly arrived at the research room where Ye Zhao and the others were located through the guidance of artificial intelligence at the door, and the first thing he saw was the picture on the control screen. As a sentinel who had been dealing with mechs for many years, he was naturally quick to react to what that meant.
"Awakening? Which mecha is this?! He rushed to Ye Zhao's side with a brisk step, and his tone was a little anxious.
Ye Zhao could understand his current mood, and he knew that the other party probably already had conjectures in his heart.
"It's the 'chill'," he said, looking at Ludwig affirmatively, "the rumored mecha master Confal's last work before his death. β
Ludwig suddenly felt that he couldn't see through Ye Zhao in front of him, he naturally trusted him unconditionally, but what happened now was beyond his cognition.
"You made the 'chilling cicada' awaken?"
Ye Zhao looked away and nodded.
Everyone in that auction thought that the Chill Cicada was just an ordinary A-class mecha. However, Ye Zhao, who was a student of Confar, and Ye Zhao, who had obtained the central intelligence of the chilling cicada by chance, both understood that this was just an appearance.
In fact, the biggest difference between the so-called A-class mecha and those higher-level S-class and even SSS-class mecha is actually only whether the mecha has an independent mecha consciousness, and everyone knows that this gap is indeed different. Artificial intelligence has been widely used in the interstellar era, but most of them still only follow the programs designed by humans before, and there are very few superintelligences that can be called their own thinking like "Thousand Ears".
An S-class mecha is equivalent to being equipped with a miniature version of a thousand ears.
The reason why Chill was mistaken for an ordinary A-class mecha was because the super intelligence system he was equipped with was accidentally lost.
Ye Zhao nodded, which was in response to Ludwig's question: "I got the central intelligence of the chilling cicada for some reasons before...... That's why I'll bid him with you at auction. As for the awakening, Ludwig, you should know that my constitution is different from that of the average guide. β
Ludwig nodded.
Ye Zhao glanced at Dio over there, the other party was concentrating on debugging the number of jΓΉ, and it seemed that he was not affected by their side at all. He said, "Actually, I don't know what's going on, but you should also know about the fact that I was a spiritual power E before...... Later, for some reason, I found the reason that had been suppressing my mental power, and then I recovered, S, even higher than before I had that scene, and I never said it, only the three of us present knew about it. β
Ludwig was a little surprised when he heard this, he had always known that Ye Zhao's spiritual power could be compared to his own, but he never thought that the other party would hide this secret until now.
Ye Zhao smiled: "With such a high spiritual power guide, I may be the only one after the marshal......" The marshal he said was Field Marshal Sigmar Bosia during the federal rule.
