"Miss Kirika?!"

"Why are you here?!"

"The reason, of course, is the same as the captain over there." Faced with Lloyd's questioning, Kirika stepped forward and replied.

"How's it going over there?" As if he had already said hello, Recter asked straight to the point.

"Things are going as expected." Kirika replied calmly, "The Airship Mecha Division has spread out on the outskirts of Altai City. ”

“！！！ Even the republic?! ”

"The Airship Mecha Division... Could it be that the mix of chariots and airships is wrong?! ”

"Well, it's a combination of a new combat vehicle with high mobility and a military airship." Kirika replied, "In Calvard's army, it is known for its highest mobility. ”

"High mobility, it seems that the Republic is fighting a war and quickly occupying Crossbell without giving the Empire a chance to maneuver?" Ike narrowed his eyes slightly, "Giving up heavy armor in favor of high mobility, will you underestimate Crossbell's Wehrmacht?" Anyway, it was also led by the Sword Master of the Wind. ”

"That's why we intend to act after the Erebonian Empire officially attacks." Kirika didn't care about exposing this information, ignoring the Imperial intelligence agents and the Crossbell police in the room. "If it's an attack by a heavy chariot that the Empire is proud of, the focus of defense should be self-evident, right? However, this is obviously not what you want to see, right? With a little thought, one can expect this to happen. However, Dita Coorois has put on an uncompromising and tough attitude, what the hell is going on-"

“。。。。。。”

"As for the other question... Seeing that Lloyd and the others were silent, Rector snatched the right to speak, "Even if it is the second question, I will answer you as a special gift." ”

“。。。 Is it the movement of the red constellation? ”

"Hmm." Rector replied decisively to Randy, with a rare doubt in his tone, "Actually, the answer is very simple, the Imperial Government is completely unaware of this matter." ”

"W-How?!"

"The relationship between the two has been completely exposed, how can it be 。。。。。。"

"Oh~ I've thought of it." Looking at the people who were more and more suspicious, Rector praised it.

"You ... Is the contract with the Red Constellation only in the Orchid Tower for a while?! Lloyd asked through gritted teeth.

"That's right, to be precise, it was the one who was responsible for eliminating the terrorists and then ended the contract. Despite this, they remained in Crossbell, and we thought it was very likely, and now it seems that there should have been a new employer from that time on... Lloyd, you're really good for espionage. Rector had a strange look in his eyes, "However, the character may need to be a little more evil." ”

"It's over, a large part of this is analyzed from Ike's intelligence." Lloyd's face was gloomy, although there was only such a possibility, he didn't expect the final answer to be really this one.

"The new employer ... Is it an association? ”

"No, that doesn't make sense." Kirika shook her head and vetoed Ellie, "In the mutation that happened in Lieber at the time, the Society called in a private combat unit called the Enhanced Hunters, and if they were going to attack Crossbell, they would have sent that unit to carry it out. Moreover, there was no shadow of an executor in this attack, right? Ike. ”

"You're right, the enhanced hunters are indeed inferior to the Crimson Constellation in terms of combat effectiveness. However, there is a lot less trouble in management than the hunting regiment, and there is no need for the association to deliberately hire the red constellation when the combat power is sufficient. Ike nodded.

"So, the real culprit is the forces that borrow the name of the Empire, and by having the Chasseurs attack the city of Crossbell, they can gain some benefits from it... Lloyd, who quickly sorted out the inextricable connections, frowned, "And, as Ike said, having the deep funds to be able to enter into a long-term contract with the highest level of the hunting regiment... Yes! ”

"Did you think of it?"

"The truth of the facts, sometimes because of this, is in the intricate details." Seeing Lloyd's incredulous expression, Rector and Fog Fragrance spoke in unison.

"Through these conditions, we can analyze . . .

"Isn't there only one eligible person left?!"

"So what do you think I'm going to freeze the assets of various countries?" Ike replied with a smirk, "Such a huge amount of money is enough to hire a top hunting regiment for a long-term contract, right?" ”

"No, it's hard to draw conclusions just yet." Lloyd gritted his teeth and shook his head in reply, looking up at the Kirika and Rechett, "Captain Reicter, Miss Kirika, although I am very grateful to the two of you for providing information, we have different positions after all. The rest is up to us... ”

Before he finished speaking, the guide hanging on Lloyd's waist suddenly sounded, and he hurriedly picked up the communication, and after a while, Lloyd, whose expression changed greatly, hurriedly put down the guide device.

"What's wrong? You have a very bad face. Randy asked, worried.

"Just now, Mr. Arios went to the Support Section and took Kia away."

“？！”

"This, what the hell is this..."

"Anyway, let's go back to the Support Division first!" Lloyd replied involuntarily, "Miss Kirika, Mr. Rector!" We're leaving! ”

"Be careful."

After receiving the reply, Lloyd, who had no intention of talking again, took the lead and rushed out of the room and ran to the support section.

“。。。 That little girl is the key to it all... Seeing Lloyd and them leaving, Rector sighed, "I said, do you think it's too late?" ”

"This... I'm afraid it's hard. Kirika shook her head and looked at Ike and Ling, who were standing aside and didn't catch up, "What do you think?" Guys who are outside of the organization. If it were you, you should know some of that little girl's details, right? ”

"In all seriousness, it sounds like I'm behind it." Ike smiled.

"Tell me about it? Judging from Ike's easy expression, it seems that the little girl's hole cards are quite powerful? Rector urged, "I'm very curious about being able to resist the attack of the Empire and the Republic at the same time." ”

"How do I know if I will notify the Empire in advance to destroy this hole card after you know it." Ike responded with a smirk.

"Why, didn't you see that the little girl they said had been picked up by Arios, even I couldn't have done such a dangerous thing under the fire of the Wind Sword Saint and the Wehrmacht, I haven't had enough of it~" Rector snapped up, staring at Ike, "And your purpose is also that little girl, right?" I don't want to be targeted by you on your turf, after all, I don't have the skills of Miss Kirika. At most, I'll just inform the Imperial Army that they don't lie on this mine. ”

"I don't know if you look down on yourself too much or if you're underestimating yourself, Scarecrow." Ike sighed, "Then I'll give you a little bit of information, although you can't contact the Empire and the Republic now." ”

“！”

His expression instantly became a little gloomy, looking at a strange device in Ling's hand, he took out the guide device from his pocket, and sat down with a sigh after a while, "Say, what is the information that we don't hesitate to break and not let us pass on?" ”

"It's also very simple, since ancient times, there has always been a secret treasure circulating in the area of Crossbell." Ike smiled.

"One of the Seven Treasures of the Goddess, that's what we call it."
