Chapter 41: Shinra

The base had already flown out of the water, and seeing this, Xue Qiong decisively loaded the last time bomb left on the glass floor, set a short time, and then returned to the control room, rummaging around.

"What's going on here!!" At the same time, the Emperor, who had already received the actual report and had moved to the command center of the palace with a large group of people who had been in the meeting, roared at Dr. Shinji Shimada again, and then pointed out the window, pointing to something that could be seen with the naked eye hundreds of kilometers away, and was rising from the horizon at one point, and asked, "How did I not know that this function existed?!! ”

"Uh," Shinji Shimada replied hesitantly, "That, Your Majesty the Emperor, you also signed the three-phase renovation plan of the HRE Research Center..."

"Shut up!!"

"His Majesty the Emperor!" An officer walked up behind the two and saluted, "The most recent exterior footage has been found..."

Emperor Dazu glanced at the screen pointed out by the officer a few times, and then the whole person slammed down on the table.

"Damn! That's the deepest hidden base of my Rising Sun Empire..."

What is displayed on this large screen is the real-time picture captured on the dashcam of a civilian car, and the image is a little blurry and a little crooked. It should be that the owner of the car was affected by the frenzy, and the car had an accident, and it happened to point the dashcam's camera in this direction.

The filming location was on a winding mountain road a few kilometers away from the HRE Research Center. But even at such a distance, the huge steel fortress rising from the ground still occupies most of the picture. From this distance, it can also be seen that this thing is gradually protruding from the ground, and on one side is a steel human face several kilometers in size, so it should be the shape of a human head on the whole. And its current take-off progress is such that the "nose" has left the ground, and the "mouth" and "chin" are still underground.

The "HRE Research Center Phase III Renovation Project" is to reintegrate and transform the "HRE Research Center", which originally only had the functions of floating island fortresses, underground ports, and scientific research, into a super giant town-level floating fortress "Shinra" based on the original medium-sized floating fortress "Super Fortress" of the empire. In addition, it also has a "God's Breath" main cannon that has been magnified countless times, and the destructive power of each shot is almost equivalent to the level of a superweapon.

The take-off state of the "HRE" includes the one, second, and third floors of the base, but does not include the ground part, and the surface soil covered on the top of the "HRE" during take-off will slide down with it, and then the well-designed "top of the head" will be revealed. Of course, this also means that the military base that was originally built on that ground is something that is completely ignored and will be immediately discarded if necessary.

Because the energy and other costs required to make it fly are too terrifying, and this project was just completed at the end of the war, so it has always been sealed, and it has also existed as the biggest hole card of the empire after the war. Until now, it has actually not flown once.

And now, it's probably because some of the senior executives left here by Shinji Shimada, after being affected by the madness, intend to completely activate this super killer weapon, and then use its main cannon to destroy...

"Is there any way to stop it?!" The emperor calmed down and asked Shinji Shimada.

"We could activate its self-destruct system, but..."Shinji Shimada wiped the sweat from his head, "that huge mass, if it falls directly to the ground under the action of gravity..."

"At the very least, it will cause an earthquake of magnitude 9 or higher in a large area, and the possibility of a volcanic eruption is also..."

"......" the emperor was silent for a few seconds.

"Send all of the Rocket Angel Brigade over and prepare to regain control of the giant floating fortress 'Shinra'... The technicians do a good job of surveillance, and if it's going to use the main cannon...", the emperor finally made up his mind, "just detonate it." ”

"Yes!"

"Shimada," the Emperor patted Shimada Shinji on the shoulder with a tired expression, "At this point, there is basically no more loss in this matter, unless I insist on holding you responsible..."

"Because you are one of the most important treasures of the Empire, so..."

"For all the days to come, atonement for your sins!"

After His Majesty finished speaking, he walked out alone.

“… Be!!! Shinji Shimada knelt in the direction the emperor had left, tears in his eyes. The Emperor's move is a sign that even after such a thing, his own position authority will not be reduced at all, and he will even receive a large amount of reconstruction and research funds because of these existing losses...

Since then, Shinji Shimada has been completely devoted to the young emperor, and has truly made an immortal contribution to the revival of the empire. He is no longer involved in all political struggles, but only neutral and calls himself the "imperial faction", of course, this is a later story.

At this time, the HRE had completely left the ground and ascended into the air. And Xue Qiong, who was at the bottom of it, certainly wouldn't have any interest in the bitter drama that took place in that distant palace. He's just rummaging frantically around the control room right now, every drawer, every cabinet he opens, and then pours out all the contents first...

"Found it!"

Finally, Xue Qiong looked at the big backpack he was carrying in his hand now, and showed a satisfied and sure expression.

"I didn't expect that there really is, there is a place where you need to use diving equipment and parachute bags as emergency supplies at the same time..."Xue Qiong quickly put the parachute bag on her shoulder, and did not forget to spit it out, before finding the manual and starting to read.

In this case, of course, he can only hold on to his feet temporarily. In addition, it suddenly occurred to him just now that maybe the underground of the room in front of him was designed to be glass, and considering this situation, the control room and the glass room inside combined were likely to be the bridge of this "spaceship", which could also explain why the bald man in charge of this place would have such a high authority. It's a pity that the bald man was very unlucky and died too simply...

"Burst !!"

"Choking Langlang~"

Xue Qiong's time bomb installed on the glass floor exploded. Hundreds of square meters of glass floor, shattered with the sound of the explosion, and then fell from the sky along with the super wave destruction device it carried...

"Whew!" A strong air flow blew through, almost failing to bring Xue Qiong down. This is because this sealed space is finally opened, and the difference between the inside and outside air pressure makes the air here keep running out.

"Oops, I haven't really played skydiving or anything..."
