……

While Qin Yang was still thinking about whether there was something wrong with the Karel brothers and sisters, Pope Clauren had already come to the Knight City.

The city is not big, but it is definitely not small, and at this time, the streets are bustling with people, and the alleys are boiling, as if this long-dormant city has regained the enthusiasm and passion of many years ago.

The Knights tournament is held every year, but this year is undoubtedly the most emotional for everyone, and it is also the only time that the main arena of the tournament is set in the city of knights.

From a historical point of view, being able to step into such a arena as the Land of Glory is in itself a matter of pride for these young cultivators, because in the past, those who appeared here were the best of the true knights of the Hunting Guild, which carried the recognition of the Church and also represented the hope of the people.

At that time, the city of knights was the proudest holy place of the entire Mara church.

If the youth is strong, the country is strong, Gilmer really wants to use this knight competition to rebuild people's confidence and faith in the church, and looking at the current grand occasion of the knight city, his goal has undoubtedly been achieved.

There was nothing wrong with the incident, and it was clear that Gilmer was a very capable regent, but this was not what Floweron wanted.

Because all these boiling scenes seem to originate from the Dawn Society.

Gilmer was right to praise people, but he praised the wrong people.

Walking down the street, Floweren hears people talking, almost every topic related to the Dawn Society.

Many restaurants and hotels also put posters of Su Mu and others at the door.

Slogans such as "Su Knight's favorite meal" and "Su Knight's same bedroom with a double bed" are written on it.

I don't know, I thought this city was the private territory of the Dawn Society.

This phenomenon can occur, not only is the reason why Su Mu and others performed exceptionally well in the competition, but also the awakening potion also played a vital role, and even Li Ya's former fans, the voices and smiles of the girls, and the impetus behind Huali High School......

These seemingly innocuous small factors are actually one of the indispensable reasons why the Dawn Society has been able to get to this point in such a short period of time.

It seems that the rise of this group of little guys is already the trend of the times.

Fortunately, it is only a general trend, not a winning trend.

"You've been planning for this day for twenty years, and the preparations you've made should be much more than that, right?" Clauren said softly, "The Holy Council, Prison Island, Law Enforcement Bureau, Dawn Army, Desert of the Wilderness...... What other cards do you have in your hand? ”

Floweren read out the names of the forces one by one, as if asking himself.

He didn't pay attention to the mysterious man who had appeared in St. Kai's City before.

Since the other party hasn't come to him until now, he said that he won't interfere in this matter, and he doesn't need to think about it.

Flowerron's steps grew slower, but his figure blurred and soon disappeared into the crowd.

……

At the same time, in a conference room at a military base.

Admiral Hilpes's face was very unpleasant.

Now he is very much like Hesse, the chairman of the parliament who parachuted into the CMU because of the farmer's potion.

That face was so black that it dripped.

And the officers standing in front of their seats in the audience were the same as the CMU members at that time.

One by one, they hung their heads slightly, their expressions nervous, and they were silent.

"Who's going to tell me, what the is going on?" Admiral Hilpes let out a rare foul mouth, and his voice was heavy, as if it could crush people to death.

Obviously, the top leader of the Military Research Department is already on the verge of outbursting into anger.

This morning, 23 military bases of the Church of Mara conducted an arms verification at the same time.

The most important part of the so-called arms verification is to take stock of the types and quantities of weapons in warehouses, as well as their performance and safety, to ensure that they are not lost and ready to be used.

According to the regulations, every military base must have at least one armament inspection per month, and the last inspection was a week ago.

It was at that time that the Ministry of Military Research sent the latest military scientific and technological research results out of the library and sent them to various cities.

Hilpes himself is searching for ghosts, but his mind is more delicate than ordinary people.

He thought that since the other party could leak the necromantic sniper rifle, it might not be possible to leak other weapons.

As a result, Hilpes issued an impromptu order that each military base immediately conduct a new arms inspection, and that his men personally supervise its implementation.

Generally speaking, smart people always prepare for the worst in advance, and Admiral Hilpes is naturally the same.

In his opinion, the necromancer sniper rifle is one of the highest-level military secrets of the current military research department, and with the birth of this kind of antimatter weapon, the previous firearms will be gradually eliminated, in other words, the firearms used by the law enforcement bureau before are no longer as valued by the military research department as in the past, so if the ghost wants to get these guys out, it will definitely be much simpler than the idea of killing the necromantic sniper.

Therefore, when the order was given to re-examine the armaments, Hilpes was well prepared.

He knew that most of his previous weapons might be gone.

Although the nature of the incident was very serious, Hilpace was not angry about it.

After all, those guns were obsolete products with limited lethality and were not enough to pose much of a threat to the church.

Hilpes saw it very clearly, to deal with ordinary people, or cultivators with low strength, they couldn't use these special firearms at all, and the other party couldn't take such a big risk to steal equipment from the Military Research Department, so the forces to which the inner ghost belonged must be high-level cultivators.

And using firearms against high-level cultivators is another commonplace problem.

It's really kind of embarrassing.

Necromantic sniper rifles don't necessarily hurt people, so what's the use of these guns?

Firepower coverage is a good idea, but Hilpes doesn't believe that the other party dares to blatantly organize an army to do things.

What's more, the Wilson family, which is currently the most suspicious, has been forced by the Pope to retract into St. Kai City, even if they get these guns, can they still make a comeback?

That's not realistic.

Once the barrier that suppressed the city of St. Kai disappears, the city is likely to be reduced to ruins in an instant, and the people inside will not even see the shadow of the church, and it will completely disappear from this world.

Therefore, those guns are lost when they are lost, as long as they are more cautious in recent times and send someone to keep an eye on the Wilson family, it will not be a big problem.

You must know that because of the Awakening Elixir, the people of the Mara Church are now basically cultivators, and coupled with the cultivation ring recently launched by the Education and Research Bureau on the market, it won't take long for these novice cultivators to grow up—at least it's no problem to reach the third order quickly, just like Kevin at the beginning, it's completely easy to dodge bullets or something.

At that point, the stolen firearms will be even more useless, no different from toys.

However, Hilpes never expected that all the firearms that he expected to have been transported to the city of St. Kai were intact, and many of them remained in the warehouse.

The inner ghost didn't move the guns.

He was moving something else.

Medusa!

It's a missile!

A strategic-grade missile developed by fusing the otherworldly spiritual power system provided by a certain family and the local military technology of Blue Star!

Once this thing explodes, it will turn all living beings into stone statues!

After being petrified by Medusa, cultivators above the top of the fifth order may be able to rescue them, while cultivators below the top of the fifth order will basically become stone carvings forever.

If you cut it all together, you might even sigh that the internal structure of the human body is so finely and perfectly.

Before life science and technology joined the military industry research and development, Medusa was the biggest reliance of the military research department in future wars.

This type of weapon, like antimatter weapons, has a special name, called "Heavenly Weapon".

The name of the Kingdom of Heaven is given to demonstrate the benevolence and goodness of this weapon.

Well, Heaven doesn't see blood, it just turns you into a stone statue.

You didn't die, you just existed in this world in a different way.

It's a wonderful mindset.

However, from the perspective of war, it seems to be true.

A heavy weapon like "Medusa" that also leaves a whole corpse can indeed be considered very merciful, at least compared to "Little Girl", "Medusa" is undoubtedly much gentle.

However, this is clearly not the point of the whole thing.

The point is, how did the inner ghost steal such a big guy quietly under the noses of so many people?

And along with it, there was the transmitter that was stored in another place.

Medusa's launcher is an armored missile vehicle, which is also a big guy, and it disappeared out of thin air!

"General Hilpes, I think they should use the Aether Light." One of the lieutenants spoke, though they hadn't found anything related to the Aether Light on the spot.

Because beyond that, he really couldn't think of any other way to take Medusa and the armored car out of the military base without setting off an alarm.

Hilpes sneered, "Of course I know about the Aether Light, but can any of you tell me how they brought the Aether Light in?" ”

As early as the head of the military research department of the Tingye Church, when he proposed to replace space technology with the light of the ether at the federation, this glittering teleportation stone was no longer a secret, and in view of its "connecting all worlds" characteristics, Hilpes not only voted against it, but also made people analyze the materials used to make the light of the ether, and strictly forbade his subordinates to bring these things into the military base.

Scientists and soldiers working on military bases do not have the right to privacy.

Every time they come back from an outing, their bodies and rings are thoroughly checked.

Still, the light of the ether was brought in.

Obviously, there is not just one, but many!

Without the cooperation of some privileged departments, this matter could not have been discovered until now.

However, does the Wilson family really have such great ability to stuff so many people into the military research department?

"Report!" At this time, a soldier came to the door of the conference room.

"Did you find someone?" Hilpace asked.

"Back to the general, no." "We searched all the places where we could hide and found no suspicious traces. ”

The soldier in charge of searching for people was brought by Hilpes from another military base, and there was no possibility of lying.

He said that if he couldn't find anyone, then the other party must have left the base.

It may not sound like good news, but Hilpers didn't feel any emotional turmoil because of it.

This is to be expected.

The other party is not stupid, it is impossible to do such a big thing, and continue to stay here and wait for death.

However, those inner ghosts are not all gone.

They made a mistake that seemed very low-level.

If all the demons are gone, who cleared the fragments of the aether light?

"Keep checking and find out all the people who have been in contact with those inner ghosts recently." Hilpes said.

"Yes!" The soldier took the order.

Hilpes glanced at the officers in the audience and said, "We will not talk about who should be responsible for this matter for the time being, now, I hope that you can come up with a feasible plan immediately, I don't want to see Medusa fall into our own territory one day." ”

In fact, with the current military technology, it is relatively easy to intercept ordinary missiles, but at the beginning of Medusa's design, in order to achieve the most ideal hit rate and power, experts specially used anti-detection materials, and adopted the air burst mode, once the degree is activated, the target is locked, and the missile is launched, the result is basically doomed, and there is no fluke at all.

Perhaps the Military Research Department can develop an air defense facility capable of intercepting Medusa, but that will be for later.

The time it takes to make Medusa is definitely no shorter than the time it took to make Medusa.

It's the same as destroying and rebuilding.

It's relatively easy to make a weapon, but it's very difficult to defend against it, can the church afford to wait?

"Actually, Admiral Hilpes, you don't have to worry too much."

After a moment of silence in the air, another man with the rank of general spoke on the side.

He was the head of the military base, and as soon as he spoke, he took the responsibility on his shoulders.

"I'm willing to take full responsibility for this." "But I want to say that even if they get Medusa, they won't be able to launch it." ”

After all, Medusa is the most powerful weapon of the Military Research Department, and if you want to start its launch process, you must have a matching armored car, a key, and a string of passwords, in this process, no matter which link goes wrong, Medusa will immediately self-destruct.

The armored car and the key, the other party may have already obtained it through the inner ghost, but the last password that changes every day, they can't figure it out.

This is because this string of passwords is randomly generated by a certain computer inside the base, and the communicator that receives the password is only in the hands of the major general himself.

"Major General Zifs, you can't say it too absolutely, nothing in this world is impossible." "But you reminded me, and I now know why they made that stupid mistake." ”

Foolish mistake refers to the cleansing of the light of the ether.

In fact, this is not that the other party is careless, but deliberate.

They are using this method to warn the Military Research Department not to act rashly.

"I don't understand your words, General Hilpes." Major General Zieves said.

"Give the order to go down and release all the soldiers who are locked up, there are no moles among them." Hilpes gave an order to the soldiers guarding the door, and then turned his head and looked at Zifs: "I just said that nothing is impossible in the world, and now, I would like to add that there is no such thing as a completely random thing in this world. ”

"The password for launching Medusa is random, and it will be automatically changed every 24 hours, but this so-called randomness also has its own underlying logic, and I think that as long as you know a little bit about the program code, you should know that I am telling the truth, not alarmist." Hilpes said.

Hearing this, Major General Zievs hadn't realized anything, but some computer experts had already changed their faces.

Hilpes is right, the computer itself cannot achieve true random operations, it runs according to artificial logic, but the scope of operation is large enough, the rules are complex enough, so it looks random.

If you know the source code of this "random operation", you can easily "predict" the order of the next password as long as you perform a certain number of simulations.

"So I said that the other side is warning us, because they have already mastered the method of launching Medusa." Hilpes's gaze drifted to a gray-haired old man, and then he sighed, "Am I right, Dr. Camitroux?" ”

Kamitru, the head of the 3rd Cipher Group of the Military Research Department, with the rank of captain.

Medusa's password generator was completed under his leadership.

This is also the only person in the entire military research department who knows all the code of the password generator.

Major General Zives's face suddenly became extremely ugly: "Doctor, please tell me, why are you doing this?" ”

He used the honorific title "you".

Kamitru is a very kind old man, his cultivation is not high, only less than the third order, and now he is already in his old age, he has dedicated his life to the military research department, and has never married a wife and had children, which is why the other party is obviously old, but Zievs is still willing to leave him in the military base.

Because apart from here, Kamitru is homeless.

For Kamitru, the military base is his home, and the officers who work here also have great respect for this old man, and there are even many younger soldiers who have grown up under Camitrou's watch.

Because of their families, these young soldiers changed batch after batch, but Kamitru never left, and stubbornly wanted to stay at his post.

Due to his age, Zieves has always given the third group a relatively easy errand, which can basically be completed by relying on only two or three team members.

It's not that Zieves doesn't believe in Kamitru, nor does he question Kamitru's ability, but he really doesn't want to see this old man who has been busy all his life for the Military Research Department still be as tired and hard as he was when he was young when he should have enjoyed his old age.

In recent years, the only task that Zievs has assigned to Kamitru has been Medusa's password generator.

Medusa is a cross-era technological weapon, but also the embodiment and symbol of the military power of the church, to be able to participate in the manufacturing process of Medusa, is a great honor for every soldier, because this itself means the unconditional recognition and trust of the country.

There is no doubt that no one is more qualified to do this than Kamitru.

Kamitru didn't offer to be involved at the time, but Zieves knew what the old man was thinking.

During that time, Kamitru would always ask how Medusa was doing, if she was almost finished...

He looked excited and happy, like a child about to receive a gift.

Therefore, Zievs offered to involve Kamitru in the final programming, and he did not want to leave the old man with any regrets.

Kamitru's feelings for this military base can't be pretended, they don't talk about getting along day and night, but at least they can see each other in weekly meetings, Zievs can feel Kamitru's sincerity, and it is precisely because of this that he doesn't understand, why would such an old man who dedicated his life to the military research department choose to betray in the end?

When confronted by Zives, Kamitru did not speak.

The silence at this time undoubtedly represents an acknowledgment.

Almost instantly, the people around him took out the matching guns on their waists and pointed them at the white-haired old man.

Many of these hands holding guns were trembling slightly, and the owners of these hands seemed to have some red eyes.

The guns of the Military Research Department are never aimed at their own people.

Everyone knows this and keeps it in mind.

Once the gun is drawn, it means that things have developed to the point where there is no room for maneuvering.

And seeing these black holes, Kamitru was still silent, but two lines of tears suddenly crossed his old face.

At this moment, Zieves felt like he had been stabbed in the heart, and the pain was suffocating.

He knew that this old man did not betray the Military Research Department, but was controlled by means.

Refining.

Yes, for Camitrou, Medusa is half his child, if it is not refined, how can he be willing to give up his child to others?

"Bastard! What a bastard! Zives' eyes were red, "How can these brutes bear to attack Dr. Kamitru!" ”

The young major general slammed his fist into the wall, smashing a large crack!

"General, I want to blow up the city of St. Kai!" Zieves growled.

"Yes, it's just not time yet." Hilpes looked at Dr. Camitrou, who was becoming more and more unfamiliar, his eyes were quite complicated, and then he sighed again: "I promised to give an explanation to the Sage City, you can personally take the doctor over tonight, and when the matter is over, bring him back in his original form and find a place to bury him...... By the way, toast him for me with his favorite wine. ”

With that, Hilpes left the military base and got into a helicopter bound for the city of Knights.

He didn't have time to vent his emotions with Zives.

For the loss of Medusa, he had to personally petition the Pope.
