059 The Betrayer (21)
On the bridge of the USS Republique, white-clad researchers were working intensely. They had been attacked some time ago, and since then they have lost the ability to increase height, and they are working on how to repair the heart of the magic hearth. Suddenly, the alarm bell blared, the red light flashed, and the hard-won peace was shattered again.
A burly man stepped out of the shadows and fired three shots at the door.
"Give me all peace! Go back to your posts! Five seconds later, I was still in my seat and I killed him on the spot! If you know the situation, report it to the chief by yourself! ”
Before he could finish speaking, a middle-aged man stumbled in from outside the bridge.
"Oh no! The No. 1 Magic Furnace has been destroyed by an unknown attack! The No. 2 and No. 3 furnaces, which were not destroyed, are overloaded and will not last long! ”
"Take me to see it!"
A boy jumped from the podium and strode to the door in less than two seconds, all eyes on him. Everyone here knows that, as ridiculous as it sounds, this boy is the actual supreme power here.
Half a minute later, led by a middle-aged man, the boy came to a room filled with the magic of rust. There are three huge machines in the room. The boy walked to the location of the fourth machine that was supposed to be there, only to find that there was nothing but an abrupt hole in the ceiling, braving the wind that seemed to sweep people in.
"Lu Lanqing ......!!!" The boy gritted his teeth and said, "The hangar above was also hit?" ”
"Yes...... Be! ”
"Lu Lanqing !!"
The boy slammed his fist to the ground.
"It's her, it's definitely her! Only one of her subordinates in the whole of Bruffley has such abilities! At that time, we should have been ruthless and get rid of them all! ”
"Sir......
"Less nonsense! I ask you, how long can the overload work of the second and third hearth last? ”
"The most ...... Up to half an hour ......"
"Fix it!" The boy pulled at the middle-aged man's shirt and yelled, "If you don't want to be buried with this floating ship, you can quickly fix the broken hearth for me!" ”
The middle-aged man was directly frightened and stupid, unable to speak for a long time, and the colleague standing behind him answered the question for him.
"Report sir, due to the damage of non-replaceable key parts, it is impossible for the No. 4 furnace core to be repaired before landing."
The boy was stunned and collapsed on the ground.
"Well, I knew ......"
"What do you mean, sir?"
"Take me back to the bridge."
The decadent boy refused the teacups handed to him, walked back to the bridge step by step, boarded the podium, and when he saw the expectant eyes of everyone, he sighed deeply and picked up the microphone:
"Attention of the whole ship, this ship has decided to make a forced landing and is ready to accept the impact."
After saying that, he glanced at the audience. To his surprise, the people in the audience showed relieved expressions.
"My sir, you made the right decision," the young lieutenant came up and said, "You probably don't know how chaotic it was in the few minutes you left here, and everyone was very worried, they knew the consequences of such a thing, and they were afraid that you would not be able to accept defeat and continue to persevere. All in all, thank you so much. ”
"You don't need to pat me on the back, I'm not that person."
The boy put his whole body on the back of the chair.
"I've given the order, and I'll leave the rest to you, from the time to the place of landing. Don't bother me, I'm going to rest. ”
"Sir!"
The young lieutenant tried to arouse the boy who was lying on the back of the chair, but was glared at, and it seemed that the boy did not want to speak anymore.
After the young lieutenant left, the boy closed his eyes and thought.
(I was wrong, tonight's action was not necessary.) )
(No, I was wrong from the start, and it was a mistake in itself to bring real weapons of war into the students' games.) )
(Maybe it's not me who is wrong, is it really right to make such a weapon of war at such a high price?) )
(Perhaps, the whole world is wrong, haha...... )
―――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――
Elph looked stupidly at her teammates who had just come into contact with her.
"He, what are they celebrating?"
"Victory."
The silver-haired girl replied lightly, her fingertips lightly brushing the corners of the page. In her world, day is equated with night.
"New! You're really amazing! ”
Fan Ziqing, who has a hidden giant R attribute, had stars in her eyes and hugged a certain Zhengtai into her arms.
"No, don't, don't......"
Shota kept struggling in the girl's arms. On the other side, Lu Lanqing held up the telescope in his hand and pointed it at the sky.
"They were going to make a forced landing, and we succeeded!"
"Hmm......" Xu Wenpei replied vaguely.
"Huh? What are you doing? ”
Lu Lanqing looked back and found that Xu Wenpei was holding the microphone in his right hand and kept saying something. After a while, Xu Wenpei let go of his hand.
"Sir, the 'Three' side said that they were attacked by the 'old man' and suffered heavy losses, and I hope we can support them and cover their retreat. The subordinates believe that our purpose has been achieved and recommend that their request be denied. ”
Lu Lanqing replied without thinking about it:
"Then refuse, remember to be tactful, by the way, let's just say that we are also under attack by an unknown enemy, and we can't get away for the time being, and when we solve the trouble here, we will rush to support them, well, that's it."
Anyway, they will definitely ask for help from other teams, Lu Lanqing thought to himself. She watched Xu Wenpei convey her words to the other party word for word. After that, the other party didn't know what to say, and Xu Wenpei's expression froze.
"Sir, they said that there are only two teams on the ground and Knight and Wu Xiaofei, all of them are under their surveillance, and it is impossible for us to be attacked by unknown enemies."
“……”
Lu Lanqing had thought of the situation when she was suspected countless times, but she didn't expect that this moment would come so early.
"Sir?"
"Repeat what I said to them again, and hang up."
On the other side of the radio connection, a circle of people is surrounding a bespectacled communicator and a speaker.
In the silence, a young man with a little short temper was the first to speak:
"She's empty-hearted! I'll just say, she's lying to us! She's just trying to lure us to the float ship and kill us all! ”
The man next to the young man poked him in the waist and motioned for him not to speak.
"Evidence, what we want is evidence...... the man in the middle said in a calm tone, "There is no evidence to prove that Lu Lanqing and them belong to hostile forces, and of course there is no evidence to prove that they are with us, maybe they are the ones who are being attacked by the 'old man' now, we need some more direct evidence...... Let's get in touch with the other two teams. ”
The cause of the incident is not complicated, about half an hour ago, the man's team that was made "No. 3" by Lu Lanqing observed the "old man's" movements, and the "old man" left the station and went to an unknown place. The man wanted to know where the "old man" was going but didn't dare to follow him, so he made up a lie about "being attacked by the old man" to test his "allies".
The results were not long in coming. Except for Lu Lanqing, who reported that he was attacked by an unknown enemy and could not escape, one of the remaining teams was fine and willing to provide support, and the other reported that they could not provide support, because at about 0:00 they were attacked by Knight's floating ship and almost all of them were destroyed, which was confirmed by the man's scout.
In this way, Lu Lanqing looked even more suspicious. The grumpy young man could not suppress the anger in his heart and said loudly:
"It's Lu Lanqing, it's her! She's in the same league as the old man! She's been lying to us all the time! That's her! ”
"Quiet, quiet." The man in the lead was not angry, "I said, we need evidence, there is no evidence to prove that she is cheating on us, and subjectively speaking, it is unlikely that Yi Lu Lanqing's character will get together with the 'old man', and it is even more likely to be with Wu Xiaofei." “
"However, we have a total of three 'allies', and this cannot be denied, right?"
The bespectacled correspondent said cautiously, and the man nodded.
The man took a deep breath, and after that, made a decision that surprised everyone.
"Bring me the shotgun."
After that, that name was entered.
