Chapter 8: Before the Ace Returns
In Milan, Italy, the EDG Earth Peace Secret Organization Branch, Wu Menglun hesitated, pacing back and forth in the corridor, he was wearing a light gray uniform.
Wu Menglun is Wu Mengyu's younger brother, he grew up under the protection of his sister, he is a simple and kind but also a little silly and cute, a weak scholar, as a top student of Yale University, with a super high IQ and computing ability, a unique mind, proficient in computer programming and data analysis, although he has never played professional e-sports, but the level of playing games can still be compared with professional players like Lu Hengtian.
Menglun has begun to regret it, EDG is ostensibly a worldwide public welfare organization, an idol opportunity found EDG's recruitment information on a mysterious website, she and Zhou Yujia, at first, just to learn from Lei Feng to do good deeds, to protect the environment and join, for this reason, they said goodbye to Wu Mengyu and other relatives and partners who have lived together for many years, but they didn't expect to follow a number of connectors to go back and forth, layer by layer, they found that this is a mysterious organization that is more unfathomable than the FBI, But fortunately, it is a legitimate international security agency, and their fundamental purpose is to ask the upper echelons for funding in the name of public welfare, but to investigate some fundamentally fantastical supernatural events, such as monsters, aliens, cosmic rays, biological mutations, and so on.
Of course, EDG is not something that can be joined by any idle person, although it does not require a particularly high degree of education, but it must have a skill, and it must go through special training, and it is almost a "defense force without lethal weapons".
EDG is also mostly a group of weirdos who are usually unwilling, and in their hearts, almost all of them believe that there is such a thing as "monsters" in this world. Last time, I went on an expedition to Antarctica, called protecting penguins, but in fact, I was looking for the mysterious aurora to find monsters! As a result, the monster was not found, but Menglun got his hands full of frostbite, and the gains outweighed the losses.
Just when Meng Lun felt helpless, a door opened, Meng Lun's eyes lit up, and then rushed forward desperately, his expression suddenly froze at this moment, and his tongue was knotted with excitement.
"Zhou ...... Zhou Yujia ......"
That woman, beautiful as a flower, graceful posture, like a fairy descending to earth, the beauty of the city, Chu Chu moving, a noble temperament but no delicate atmosphere.
He is Wu Menglun's girlfriend "Zhou Yujia", as silly and cute as Menglun, optimistic, fantasies and adventure and freedom, full of curiosity about all unknowns, kind and cute like her, but she is the daughter of Zhou Yusen, the president of the top ten international companies, but she put hundreds of millions of family fortunes and did not inherit them, and escaped from home alone to be self-reliant, but by mistake was rescued by Wu Mengyu and Wu Menglun's sister and brother, Mengyu beat the people chasing her with three punches and two feet, and Menglun took her in and helped her find a new job.
Although Zhou Yujia is stubborn and refuses to admit defeat, he and Menglun have a lot of common language, cute things meet cute things, ice and snow smart meet erudite talents, and they have endless words. In this way, the two are inseparable every day, and naturally come together because of tacit understanding and coexistence of intellectual curiosity, and establish a relationship. Half a year ago, despite the repeated opposition of Mengyu and others, she still joined EDG with Mengyu.
"Menglun, long time no see." The touching smile and charming smile sucked Menglun's soul.
"Yujia, you're finally done with the special training......"
"Yes, after three months of intensive training, my fist and foot kung fu has improved a lot, although I can't compare with your sister, but at least I have reached the physical fitness test and can become an official member of EDG. You are a civilian, you will not understand the cruelty of this special training. Yu Jia smiled mysteriously, "Also, we may have a mission." The boss was worried that there was an undercover agent inside, so he only gave you and me a secret mission, and the real purpose of EDG's existence was to deal with 'Skynet'. ”
"Skynet?" Meng Lun was surprised.
"That's right, over there, Skynet has always regarded EDG as a thorn in the eye and a thorn in the flesh. The last organization to investigate Skynet was called 'SKT', and the high-level management was almost completely infiltrated by Skynet, and Skynet threatened the lives of all SKT members to delete all the investigation materials about Skynet. ”
Skynet...... Indeed, when I hear the name, I feel a sense of crisis. Meng Lun smiled.
"It's not a joke, my dad's company is also one of Skynet's sponsors. I hacked into the website of the family business with the identity information of the family privilege, and I was almost shocked into a cold sweat. Zhou Yujia said, "Show you a few private photos of my family business, after seeing it, be careful of your heart." ”
"How is this bunch of things...... What do they want to do with this kind of horror! Looking at the photo, Meng Lun was terrified, "No, I have to stop them from going crazy!" Is this kind of thing something that humans can control? ”
In the photo, there are several robots taller than skyscrapers, all of which are secretly produced in underground factories, and there are also sci-fi products such as Jin Guqiao and even Ace Killer.
"I heard that they have produced more than 1,000 such robots, all of which are equipped with artificial intelligence." Yu Jia added, "They are still making it, and they call this series of projects 'Project Terminator', and they will make this army of giant robots the 'Iron Man Corps'. Although my father was interested in money, I didn't expect him to sponsor such a project. ”
"Nonsense! What do they make these things for? Destroy humanity? Or to conquer the universe? Meng Lun looked serious and energetic, "I didn't expect to make the robot in 'Ultraman' real, isn't this an infringement of Tsuburaya's intellectual property rights?" ”
Meng Lun pointed to Jin Guqiao in the photo and said: "This robot, called Jin Guqiao, pressed Saiwen to the ground and beat it, with the current human strength, don't even want to hurt it without a nuclear bomb!" ”
After that, Meng Lun pointed to the photo of Ace's killer again: "This guy is even more terrifying than the golden ancient bridge, which can be described as a childhood shadow...... These things, even if only one are built, are enough for all mankind to drink a pot......"
"You mean...... If you really build tens of thousands of units of those things, the consequences will ...... Unthinkable? Yujia realized that the situation was serious, and her heart was furious.
"Where is Skynet's headquarters?" Thinking of this, Monronton felt bad.
"Up...... Shanghai ......" Yu Jia swallowed her saliva, "Stardust Community...... Where it is......"
Although the news is not very certain, eight or nine is not far from ten. Meng Lun was frightened, and he immediately dialed the long distance.
It was his sister Wu Mengyu who answered the phone: "Hey, Menglun, I haven't seen you for a long time, you heard my sister say, I'm with Agu!" How's that, it's a surprise, right? ”
"Sister, listen to me, I'm coming back soon......"
"Come back? It's good to be back! Wu Mengyu hurriedly took over the handle, "When we come back, we will definitely give you a grand surprise!" ”
"Hey, sister, that's not the point, you guys over there...... It could be dangerous......"
"Oh, what are you worried about, Menglun! Don't worry, my sister still has a gift for you! ”
"Sister! Sister ......"
The phone hung up helplessly, Meng Lun had no choice but to sigh and shake his head, he really shouldn't have called Wu Mengyu on his head, and he didn't even leave room for himself to speak.
Meng Lun shrugged his shoulders, led Yu Jia in, and explained the situation about Skynet to Captain Lang Lane of the branch, the captain naturally knew better than them, thought twice, and finally approved Meng Lun and Yu Jia's proposal to return to Shanghai, and appointed the two as "Skynet Special Investigators" to be stationed in Shanghai for a long time.
boarded the plane back to Shanghai, this time, Menglun and Yujia's hearts were no longer full of excitement and joy, but more of a sense of mission to jointly shoulder the burden of protecting the earth.
Menglun's heart fluctuated, and in his mind, there were still faint pictures of childhood heroes.
When he was a child, his favorite hero was "Ultraman Ace", so even if his life journey was down, his enthusiasm was never extinguished, he wanted to protect and help the weak, even if he himself was a weakling, even if he was betrayed thousands of times, the light in his heart was with him. Even, he is fantasizing, fantasizing about being able to shout at the same time with his beloved one day: "Ultra merge!" ”
On the plane, my imagination was flowing, but I didn't know that the day when Wu Menglun, Zhou Yujia and Ace would meet was no longer far away......
On the surface of the moon, the unmanned space station jointly built by China and the United States was suddenly attacked, and a huge explosion broke the silence on the surface of the moon, and the outer layer of the exploration station was surrounded by raging flames.
"Go ahead! Go ahead! Destroy me! Burn everything of humanity with fire to prove the greatness of our people from another dimension! ”
A wild roar from another dimension pierced the sky, and the full-moon superbeast Runatix appeared outside the moon base and wreaked havoc, spewing high-temperature light bullets from its mouth frantically.
The girl gently raised her head covered by her hair, the message in her ears gradually weakened, and she was admittedly terrified: "Li Jun? Answer me, Li Jun? What happened to you? This is the Mecatobian Secret Service, I'm a robot agent who broke into the 'Skynet' - Lilulu, the Earth is being targeted by people from another dimension, please answer ......"
On the moon, superbeasts rage, disrupting the girl's plans. As a high-level personnel of "Skynet", if the "Terminator Project" of Skynet is activated, and then unite with the Super Beast to destroy it on Earth, I am afraid that their B-level "Iron Man Corps" plan will be ruined, at this time, the Super Beast will never be allowed to make mistakes!
"No...... I can only control robots, superbeasts...... Not at all......" The beautiful girl with long pink hair was worried at the moment, and factors beyond his control were bound to disrupt his plans.
She looked at all this blankly: "No...... I finally stared at this parallel time and space, there shouldn't be that annoying blue tanuki here, right? ”
"No, no." Behind the girl, a man in black with a smirk on his face spun around and startled her.
"Who are you...... How did you get out? ”
"I know that I can only find a way to save this universe before someone else." The man in black sneered, and he saluted her, rather gentlemanly, "Gaguras. Gagura ...... Please advise ......."
