Chapter 135: The Shadow of War......

"My name is Ye Haoyu, and she is my girlfriend, Li Tangxin. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 infoWe're all members of the Einsatzgruppen from the Mantes Empire......"

Haoyu's words had just begun when he was interrupted.

"Wait!"

Cullen shook his head, and then waved his hand at the members around him: "Akatsuki and Waldman, you stay, and the rest of you go to rest." Also, forget what you just heard! That's not something you should know! ā€

The members of the Black Knight Adventure Group standing behind Karen, although some of them were still a little puzzled, they all honestly obeyed Cullen's orders and quickly stayed away from here.

Karen glanced at Conia and Verdena with a serious face, and then said to Refina and Adele, "Two teachers, this matter ......"

Refina chuckled lightly and said indifferently: "It's okay, Konia and Vanderna's family is not an ordinary family, don't worry about what trouble this level of news will bring to them." ā€

"I see."

Glancing at Conya and Verdena, who looked calm, Karen nodded, then turned to look at Haoyu, "You can go on." ā€

Haoyu nodded calmly and continued, "As you can see, Sugarheart and I are both descendants of the Celis who immigrated to the Mantes Empire, and we both look more like Celiss. That's why we've been selected for the Einsatzgruppen. With the exception of the two of us and the other two members who had already been killed, the rest of the Einsatzgruppen were warriors like us who had no Mantes characteristics. ā€

"And our mission is to disguise ourselves as mercenaries and adventurers, and quietly investigate the remains of the aircraft realm that exist in the territory of the United Kingdom of Malte."

"However, this mission of our squad is slightly different. According to the orders of our superiors, we need to make sure that no one has access to the Machine Lord located in the ruins until reinforcements arrive. That's why we will take the initiative to attack you. ā€

"Doesn't that seem right?" Dio raised an eyebrow, "When we met in the ruins, you were planning to get ahead of us and find that stupid big man." ā€

Listening to Dio's words, Haoyu couldn't help but smile bitterly: "In fact, when I saw you enter the ruins, I already knew that we couldn't complete this task. After all, we can't keep an eye on you. However, although the mission is no longer complete, if we can bring back enough data, we can still make up for it, and maybe even get additional rewards. ā€

Speaking of this, Haoyu held his forehead helplessly: "As a result, Kate's idiot actually woke up the mechanical lord, and then we were wiped out because of it." ā€

If it weren't for Dio, who was passing by, wanted to get some information from the two of them and saved them, the bodies of both of them would have been cold by now.

Thinking of this, Haoyu couldn't help but feel a little resentful of Kate, who was already dead. If this guy hadn't died, how could they have gotten to this point?

After pondering for a while, Dio frowned and asked, "Although I don't have hope, I still want to ask, do you have any contact information for other Einsatzgruppen and your superiors?" ā€

"Of course not." Haoyu shook his head, "For a special task force like ours, the chances of being captured by the enemy are quite high. So we don't know anything about the other Einsatzgruppen except for the superiors who will unilaterally issue orders to us. ā€

Dio, who had expected this, nodded and continued to ask, "So, what's the use of you searching for those mecha ruins like this?" ā€

"The reason for this is not told to us, but I can guess a little." Looking at the exoskeleton armor on his body, Haoyu said calmly, "Unlike the Rhine Holy Kingdom, which develops the power of divine arts, and unlike the Malte United Kingdom, which studies magic technology, the Mantes Empire studies the science and technology of the machine world. These exoskeleton armors like those on our bodies are reversed based on the study of organisms in the machine world. ā€

"Relying on this exoskeleton armor, me and Sugar Heart, who are not excellent in magic talent and fighting spirit, have gained strength that is not weaker than that of intermediate professionals!"

"After all, it's just relying on external forces." Refina shook her head disdainfully, "If you strip off this exoskeleton armor, I'm afraid you won't even be able to beat a junior professional, right?" ā€

"That's right. But out of a hundred, how many people are able to become mid-level professionals? Haoyu retorted calmly, "And such exoskeleton armor is completely capable of mass production!" As long as there is enough exoskeleton armor, the Mantes Empire can easily raise countless armies composed of mid-level professionals! Even the army at the level of a senior pro is fine! ā€

"If that's the case, the Mantes Empire would have unified the entire continent long ago." Adele, who was holding a book, interjected calmly, "If I'm not mistaken, the cost of this so-called exoskeleton armor is probably not low, right?" And no matter how good the performance of the armor is, whether it can give full play to the power of the armor depends on the quality of the installer itself, right? ā€

This makes so much sense, I was speechless!

Haoyu scratched his head a little embarrassed.

"Looks like that's all you know. So, what do you think should be done with him? Dio looked at Cullen with a calm expression.

Haoyu also understood that now was the moment to decide the life and death of the two of them, and immediately looked at Karen nervously.

Looking Haoyu up and down, seeing that he was in a cold sweat, Karen shrugged his shoulders a little helplessly: "After all, the two of them are your captives, of course it is up to you to decide their fate." ā€

Haoyu suddenly turned his head to look at Dio with a nervous face. Although Dio had promised that he would not take their lives, Haoyu couldn't be sure that Dio wouldn't just turn around and deny it.

Looking at Haoyu and Sugar Heart, who was still in a coma, Dio also held his chin and thought with some hesitation: whether these two people are killed or released, they don't seem to be very safe.

"Master, can you give them to me?" Bart, who had been fiddling with the chips he had removed from Haoyu and Sugarheart's exoskeleton armor, suddenly spoke.

"Are you useful?" Dio raised an eyebrow.

"Yes." Bart replied in the affirmative with a serious face.

"I'll leave it to you." Dio shrugged his shoulders and said with a nonchalant expression.

After all, they were just two captives, and Dio really didn't care much about the two of them.

"Thank you, host." Bart saluted Dio, then turned to look at Haoyu, "Then you will be my people from now on." ā€

At this moment, Bart's smiling face was quite dangerous in Haoyu's opinion. (To be continued.) )
