Chapter 53: The Bloody Confession

"On November 17, 16 years of the Meiya calendar, it was another sunny day. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info We are here with the people of the mirage to participate in the commemoration of the Day of the League at the Governor's Palace. This is Yaning National Television, and I'm Situ Pei, the reporter on the scene today. ”

"I'm_your_reporter, Peter. )”

At the foot of the palace mountain, various TV stations are broadcasting the New Year's Alliance Day celebrations live, among which the official media of the American and Asian governments: Yaning National Television is the largest, and two star reporters and hosts - Situ Pei, a young and beautiful Yaning woman, and Peter, an older, slightly fat Asian man from Meida Buso, are responsible for broadcasting the whole territory of Yaning, and the bilingual dialogue between the two is also a unique feature of Mirage.

"I say Peter," said a dignified Szeto Pei, who turned his head to interact with his colleague after the iconic national television news music played, "Can you tell the audience in front of the TV that this year's Alliance Day commemoration is different from the past?" ”

(My_pleasure It's an honor.) Peter replied in accordance with his colleague's words:

“Today’s_event_is_not_only_for_the_16th_anniversary_of_the_great_friendship_between_Medarbussoya_and_Yanin,also_for_mourning_the_death_of_who_fought_against_the_ separatists_one_year_ago. Viceroy_William_will_meet_with_the_survive_soldiers_and_their_families. (This event is not only to commemorate the sixteenth year of peace and friendship between Yanin and Medabsuya, but also to mourn the loss of those who fell in battle in the tragic incident caused by a small number of separatists a year ago.) Governor William would also personally meet with the surviving warriors and their families. )”

"Speaking of which, it is said that our Governor William was also a battle-hardened veteran in the past~"

"No_wonder_you_said_so, when_Viceroy_William_fought_for_the_Me-ya_alliances, you_were_probably_a_kid. (No wonder you say that, when Governor William fought hard to create the American-Asian Alliance, Pepe, you were still a child~)"

"Indeed, it is no exaggeration to say that the relationship between Governor William and the American-Asian Alliance is as close as the connection between spirit and flesh~ So now, let's switch back to the event and listen to what the Governor has to say~"

Are_you_ready_to_witness_the_spectacular_event(Please experience the scene for yourself.) )”

The two reporters turned to the left and right back, respectively, and opened their hands to the palace mountain behind them in a welcome gesture. Giant bilingual slogans are pushed to the center of the TV screen to a majestic background music:

“STRENGTH_THROUGH_UNITY!

Strength comes from unity! ”

After the subtitles, the screen was replaced by a bustling crowd of people participating in the Governor's Palace, and the word "LIVE" was displayed in the upper left corner of the screen.

The ferry, hovering not far from the Doge's Palace, shook faintly, and small pieces of steel fell from the sky. But the attention of the people on the ground was focused on the center of the venue, and no one noticed anything unusual.

The vibration came from inside the ferry, and a Yaksha's head just hit the side wall of the cabin with a heavy blow, and the wall was directly dented with too much force, but fortunately, Hong Yuesheng squatted down in time to avoid the fatal blow. Seizing the flaw of the Yaksha for a moment, Hong Yuesheng grabbed a sharp piece of wreckage from the smashed hull and aimed it into the softest neck of the Yaksha. Blood spurted out of Yaksha's throat and sprinkled Hong Yuesheng's face, but after all, the strength of human beings was limited, and the wreckage in his hand was blocked by the strong bones and muscles after Yaksha's alienation.

"Woooooooo

The injured Yaksha roared in pain and swept Hong Yuesheng's left shoulder, knocking him out of the air, slamming it against the wall on the other side and rebounding to the ground, "Wow", Hong Yuesheng spurted a mouthful of blood to the ground. Seeing him fall to the ground, the Yakshatras finally seized the opportunity and surrounded him in a semi-arc.

Seeing that the overall situation had been decided, the fake abbot's masked face nodded, and the electronic synthesis voice spat out a sentence of unknown meaning:

"You just said that between "other" and "shore" is the fragrance of blood representing "fate". Then let's end this fate with blood here! ”

He turned to operate the console, and the holographic screen in front of him showed the three-dimensional structure of the ferry and the table of parameters. The fake abbot pressed the engine acceleration button, and the green slots representing the hull load in the pie circle began to increase, turning yellow after more than a third, and the gears inside the entire hull began to spin faster and faster.

"We dream that we have never been forced to leave our homeland," the false abbot confessed in a low voice.

We dream that we never fled,

We dream of never being killed. ”

Hong Yuesheng propped up the ground with his elbows and desperately crawled towards the end of the cabin, followed by several Yaksha with their mouths wide open, hideous faces, crawling on all fours slowly gathering towards him, and they also grinned and threatened each other from time to time, as if several confident old cats were fighting over who had more right to play with the little mouse that was already in the cat's paws.

"They hang over us like demons,

Cruelty to our people, distortion of our beliefs, destruction of our gods. ”

Hong Yuesheng coughed up the blood in his throat with difficulty, and when he raised his head again, a strange light flashed in his eyes.

At the security checkpoint outside the Governor's Palace, the driver's seat of one of the impounded Lionheart's armored vehicles turned on with its autopilot lights on, and a "cooing" sound came from the microphone connected to the on-board AI (artificial intelligence).

"Let us in!! We are receiving signs of terrorist action! ”

"Even if there is terrorist activity, you should report it to the Mirage Security Bureau and let us deal with it!"

The Green Snake, the White Tiger and the heavily armed Security Bureau soldiers were still confronting each other, when suddenly the unmanned armored personnel carrier behind them started on its own, rushed out at full speed without warning, smashed the front fence, and rushed in the direction of the ferry.

"How dare you openly disobey orders!!" The Security Service soldiers roared hysterically at the green snake.

"This is not our order!"

"Ghost Believe!" The soldiers of the Security Service rushed into the sentry box in a fit of rage and picked up the phone:

"Units, immediately intercept an illegal intrusion armored vehicle!"

The Lionheart armored personnel carrier went on a rampage, and the crowd of onlookers in front of it screamed to get out of the way, but soon the road in front was stopped by the white security bureau police car that received the order to intercept it, but the armored car unexpectedly quickly turned around, due to the heavy body when drifting, the maglev device spewed a hot wave of air and burned a black mark on the ground. In the pungent smell of burning, the armored vehicle successfully turned at a 90-degree angle into the narrow alley next to it, and curved around the position of the ferry, followed by more police cars with their horns in hot pursuit.

As soon as they crossed the alley, two heavy police cars jumped out from the left and right sides and slammed into the Lionheart armored car at the same time, sandwiching the armored car in it.

"Warning! There are buildings 500 meters ahead. "A warning message is displayed on the driver's screen of the armored car.

"Coo~" The voice of artificial intelligence Lisa came out of the microphone again, and the magnetic devices in the left and right doors of the Lionheart armored car were opened, and the police cars on both sides were immediately firmly absorbed, and then the armored car not only did not slow down, but accelerated and rushed towards the building in front.

"Warning! There are buildings 100 meters ahead. ”

"Wow, aa One of the drivers of the two police cars raised his hand in horror to cover his face, and the other reacted quickly to open the door and jump out of the car.

With a loud bang, the Lionheart armored car with the police car crashed into the building printed with "Xinglong three-dimensional parking lot", the police cars on the left and right could not withstand the impact of the wall and instantly turned into two discus in the firelight, only the armored car smashed the wall and rushed into the parking lot, and the wreckage of the falling building behind him and the fire caused by the explosion of the police car blocked the follow-up pursuers.

Once in the parking lot, the armored car drove up at full speed along the spiraling lane. Each time you go around the northeast-facing direction, you can see through the transparent floor-to-ceiling glass that the sky ferry is getting closer and closer.

"We will drive them out of the mirage sky,

We will make their crimes public! ”

With the announcement of the fake abbot, the yaksha closest to Hong Yuesheng raised the claws in his hand and grabbed at Hong's back, and the sharp claws reflected an armored car from the top floor of the three-dimensional parking lot breaking through the glass and flying in the direction of the ferry...

Rumble!!!

The Lionheart armored car smashed the huge floor-to-ceiling window of the ferry, and then the front of the car directly hit the left side of the Yaksha who raised his claws, even if it was an alienated Yaksha, it could not withstand the impact of the armored car that rushed up at full speed, and suddenly the Yaksha from his left arm, left chest cavity to the inside of the body was shattered, and was pushed out by the armored car in the air, and knocked over the other two Yakshas.

The armored car drew an arc in the air, the rear of the hull of the troop carrier opened over, and the hydraulic catapult ejection device ejected a huge mechanical body, and then the armored car slammed into the wall on the other side of the cabin, half of the body inside the ship, half of the body pierced out of the cabin.

The sudden change made the other Yaksha confused for a while, and after the smoke and dust, between the Yaksha and Hong Yuesheng, stood a mechanical warrior more than three meters tall, with a beast-shaped pattern tattooed on the steel body, and a silver coat of arms on the right shoulder. The alternate entrance at the back of the mechanical warrior's body flipped open, and Hong Yuesheng gritted his teeth to prop up his body and jumped into the mecha from behind.

The lion armor on the mecha's face fell with a "click", and a blood-red light flashed in his eyes to represent the state of battle.

On the ground street, I saw an armored car break through a high-rise building and crash into an air ferry, which finally aroused the attention and commotion of the people below. Many people cover their foreheads with the back of their hands and look up to the sky.

Also looking at the movement in the air was Brunhilde, who was talking to Applejack's wife and children in the Governor's Office.

"It's the Adeptus Fluctuation, that's right..." Brunhilde frowned and whispered to himself.

Through the square window of the office, she saw in the garden that Governor William's words had just been finished, and that there was a little rest before the next session began, and people were moving freely or greeting each other, and Victor and Silver Fox were walking straight through the crowd towards the outside of the Governor's Palace, where Silver Fox was reporting something to Victor, which made Brunhilde believe that Hong Yuesheng's fears were becoming a reality.

"Arya, you go to the security department and ask for the activation of the Governor's Palace's first-level security Alyx Shield."

"Alex's Shield?! But only Colonel Victor's Security Bureau has this qualification... ”

"I said that the Governor personally requested it."

"The Governor has already given the order?"

"He will. I'm going to my father right now. With that, Brunhilde hurried away.

"Let the tank come with you!" Red-haired Arya is worried about her boss's safety.

Brunhilde glanced at the tank girl next to him and nodded.

"Bonnie, Emily, you take Mrs. Applejack and the baby to the safe house first." The red-haired Arya commanded as she ran towards the security center.

"What the hell is going on?" Mrs. Applejack is still confused.

When Mr. Stephens led Brünnhilde into the Governor's chambers, William was holding up his collar in front of the mirror and changing his black bow tie for the condolence event below.

"Oh, it's my baby girl~" he looked at Brunhilde in the mirror, "but I'm sorry it might not be a good time to chat." ”

Mr. Stephens: "Governor, perhaps you should listen to what Ling Qianjin has to say. ”

"Father, I'm here to hope that you can stop the rest of the activities." Brünnhilde gave a brief courtesy and immediately got to the point.

"Can you tell me why?"

"We have received information that there is a possibility of a terrorist attack at the event site."

"I didn't hear the warning from your brothers."

"Yes... The information does need to be confirmed, and it could be that I'm overly nervous, but I'd rather not let you take that risk. ”

Governor William turned to look at his daughter, "You know that for the past sixteen years, we have been fighting the Yanin terrorists, right? ”

"Yes." Brunhilde nodded.

"Then you also know that the next link, and the last activity of the day, is to launch the fireworks symbolizing the unity of Asia and the United States with the veterans of the Confederate Day in the Governor's Garden, which is the former Yaning Palace, right?"

"I understand that, but given the current situation, things can change quickly, and my suggestion is to postpone or replace it."

"Brunhilde, my daughter." Governor William walked up to Brunhilde and looked at her with deep eyes that had a kind of dementoring magic in his eyes: "You should know that this is the time I've been waiting for. From the beginning of the Asian-American War to the present more than ten years, Yaning has never really stabilized. And today, thanks to the three of you, brothers and sisters, we have finally broken the deadlock, and now is the time to inspire the soldiers, win the hearts and minds of the people, and make our family foundation more stable. ”

He clasped Brunhilde's shoulders with both hands: "Everything, everything I've done up until now, is for the sake of this family. So, isn't that risk worth the cost now? ”

"Father... Governor William's words were almost irresistible, and Brunhilde couldn't help but be speechless for a moment.

"I can trust that with your protection, today's commemoration will be over, right?"

“。。。。 Well, father. But you need to agree to activate Alex's Shield, and it's only fifteen minutes, not any longer, Ok?"

"Is it really necessary to activate the Shield of Alex, the Governor's Palace's highest defense system?"

"Father!"

The Governor laughed, "Yes, yes, as you say." ”

The red-haired Arya answered the call from the red switchboard and announced to the people in the Security Department of the Governor's Palace: "Viceroy_William_personally_ordered_to_start_off_Alex_Shield! (Governor William has personally ordered the opening of Alex's Shield!) )”

With the activation of Alex's Shield order, with the Governor's Palace as the center, an electromagnetic device rises every fifteen meters around the circumference of a radius of one kilometer, and finally converges in the sky above the fire phoenix made of gold and silver at the top of the Governor's Palace, thus forming a semi-arc-shaped electromagnetic dome that envelops the entire Governor's Palace. Except for occasional distortions of light, electromagnetic waves are not visible to the human eye most of the time, but if an object attempts to invade from the outside world, the electromagnetic shield will tear all intruders apart like a deadly guillotine. Of course, when Alex's Shield was activated, no movement of people was allowed inside or outside the electromagnetic dome.

In another, more private, windowless meeting room in the Governor's Palace, Nakahisa, accompanied by his lawyer Kevin, was receiving several important guests.

Lawyer Kevin stood up from his seat with a delicate ivory cane to support his body and salute the guests, he and Applejack visited the Old City last year as Nakahisa's personal entourage, although he was finally lucky to be rescued by the special forces of the US-Asian coalition government during the riot, but he was brutally tortured by the Revival Society, and even today, a year later, he still needs to rely on a cane to move, and a knife wound on his face that runs from his forehead down through his right eye is also particularly eye-catching.

The few VIPs in black suits sitting behind the conference table opposite Kevin were also fresh-faced.

"We_appreciate_you_traveling_all_the_way_here_to_meet_us_today (thank you for coming all the way from Meda Busoa)," Kevin began with a courtesy greeting:

"Your_financial_support_to_Lieutenant_Colonel_ZhongJiu_will_pave_the_way_for_his_senator_career. (Receiving the support of your chaebol in future political funding will undoubtedly pave the way for our lieutenant colonel Nakahisa to be elected to the parliament in the future.) )”

"Mr. Kevin, you're_very_polite. One of the distinguished guests, a forty-five-year-old Merda Busoya merchant who had seen his skin had been treated with excellent care and shrewd-eyed eyes, replied:

“We’re_impressed_that_Lieutenant_Colonel_Zhong_Jiu_grew_into_an_extraordinary_leader_so_fast. As_the_important_bond_of_Me-Ya_nations,clearly,you_will_have_a_bright_future_in_politics. Not_to_mention,he’s_from_a_prominent_family. We_believe_that_Lieutenant_Colonel_Zhong_Jiu_will_give_back_to_our_community_when_he_wins_the_position_of_senator. (We are indeed interested in the rapid rise of Lieutenant Colonel Nakahisa.) As the son of Jiangmen, a young and talented young man, Lieutenant Colonel is now serving as a bridge between the Asian and American nations, and he has made outstanding achievements, and we are sure that the political future of Lieutenant Colonel will be bright in the future, and we also believe that if Lieutenant Colonel Nakahisa can be elected to the post of Mirage Councilor in the future, he will definitely take into account the interests of our group in the Mirage. )”

"Sure_Mr_Sculley, this_must_be_a_win-win_for_both_of_us. (That's nature, Mr. Scully.) Our cooperation must be a win-win result. Kevin gave a lawyer's signature smile: "Is_that_right, Lieutenant_Colonel_ZhongJiu?" (You say yes?) Lieutenant Colonel Nakahisa? )”

But Zhong Jiu, who was sitting next to him, didn't say anything, he bit his right fingernail, and his attention was attracted by something he couldn't see outside the house.

"Lieutenant_Colonel_ZhongJiu (Lieutenant Colonel Nakahisa)?" Kevin lightly knocked Nakaku's calf with his heel.

“Yes! (Oh!) Only then did Zhong Jiu turn his attention back, but instead of asking whether he could say no, he stood up: "Sorry, excuse_me_for_a_minute. (I'm sorry everyone, I'll leave for a few minutes.) With that, he hurried out of the room.

"I'm_sorry, Lieutenant_Colonel_ZhongJiu_is_quite_a_busy_man, we'll_be_right_back (I'm sorry, Lieutenant Colonel Nakahisa is always in good hands, let's go and go back.) Kevin apologized to several VIPs and hurried out of the room.

Kevin limped down the hallway on crutches and found Nakahisa standing in front of a pair of large floor-to-ceiling windows staring out.

"Zhongjiu, these rich chaebol businessmen were finally invited by me from Meda Busuya, you can't treat them as air!"

"Alright, Kevin. Don't make such a fuss, I'm not going to ignore them. ”

"You have to understand that you're going to need a lot of money to run for Mirage ... What are you looking at? ”

It was that uneasy telepathy again, Nakahisa stared through the floor-to-ceiling windows at the occasional refraction of the air outside, and thought to himself as a ferry boat in the distant sky. Although he hadn't participated in actual combat for a while, his sixth sense of ability had not degraded.

"Woo-ah-ah-ah!!"

Hong Yuesheng manipulated the Lionheart mecha to plunge the giant dagger in his hand into the head of a yaksha, and when he pulled it out again, blood gushed out like a volcanic eruption - due to the lack of movement authority in the mirage room, all the Lionheart squads were disarmed, because Hong Yuesheng now only had a mecha cold weapon in his hand. The other Yaksha howled and pounced on him, but the huge body of the Lionheart Mecha was able to twist flexibly to dodge the Yaksha's blow, turned around and swung the dagger, and the second Yaksha's right arm was cut off, and the volley slid in an arc and flew towards the end of the cabin. But this Yaksha seemed to be even more fierce and tenacious, it didn't care about the broken arm, but instead stretched out its other claw to firmly grasp the face of the Lionheart King Mecha, trying to crush the lion's head with all its might, and the screen in Hong Yuesheng's control cabin was a red warning for a while.

"Think beautifully!" Hong Yuesheng twisted Yaksha's one-arm with both hands, the mecha supported the ground with his feet, his waist rotated, and he used wrestling tactics to turn the situation around, but he successfully strangled Yaksha's neck with one arm, and held the dagger in the other hand and cut Yaksha's throat directly from left to right.

Before he could catch his breath, the newcomer had already smashed down from the air with both claws holding the steel pillar drawn from the wreckage of the cabin, Hong Yuesheng rolled back in time to dodge, and the steel pillar in the newcomer's hand mistakenly pierced the one-armed companion who had already cut his throat. The Lionheart mech tossed the dagger in the air and reversed its grip on the hilt again, then roared and lunged at the newcomer.

Boom!

The mecha dagger collided with the steel pillar that the newcomer had re-raised, sending out a roaring echo before each being shaken apart, and the two tried their best to get rid of the inertia and slash at each other again.

Boom! Boom! Boom! For a while, the two intersected in short combat, and after a few rounds, there was no winner or loser, but at the last collision, the dagger that was already scarred shattered in response, and the steel pillar then hit the chest of the Lionheart Mecha, knocking the mecha into the air entirely, smashing many auxiliary consoles along the way and then falling heavily to the ground, and Hong Yuesheng in the cockpit couldn't help but spit out another mouthful of blood.

The newcomer raised the steel pillar to his shoulders like a javelin, pushed his entire body into the air with his hind legs, and stabbed the head of the mecha that fell to the ground. The sound was inserted into the ground close to Hong Yuesheng's face, if it was half a quarter late, it would not be the ground but Hong Yuesheng's face that would have been pierced. But Hong Yuesheng did not hesitate for a moment after escaping the catastrophe, before the body of the Yaksha in the air fell, he manipulated the legs of the mecha to kick towards the abdomen of the Yaksha, coupled with the effect of the Yaksha's forward inertia, the Yaksha was kicked and flew in front of Hong Yuesheng's head, and also lost the steel pillar in his hand.

Hong Yuesheng took the opportunity to raise his hand and hold the steel pillar inserted in the ground as a fulcrum, and a carp flipped up, pulled up the steel pillar and pounced on the Yaksha, and when he was about to stab the beast-like head of the Yaksha, this extremely agile enemy actually grabbed the stabbed steel pillar with his claws into the white blade.

When the two sides wrestled, Hong Yuesheng's mecha joint bearings burst out with golden sparks caused by overload friction, and finally the Lionheart mecha was even more powerful, and in the Yaksha, "Woo woo woo!! In the midst of the scream, Hong Yuesheng pushed the steel pillar into the cheek of the Yaksha, and watched the end of the Yaksha steel pillar pierce into the skin, the bones of the face shattered, the eyeballs burst, and finally the entire skull was torn apart.

Hearing the rapid and heavy footsteps behind him, Hong Yuesheng danced the steel pillar in his hand, dragged the corpse in front of him to turn one hundred and eighty degrees, and threw the corpse at the enemy who sneaked behind him.

"Poof!!"

The steel pillar in the hands of the Lionheart Mecha has pierced the chests of the two enemies like a skewer, and then pushed forward fiercely, and finally nailed the two Yaksha to the wall at the end.

The fake abbot on the central console had been quietly watching what was happening, unmoved.

Hong Yuesheng had already held the last Yaksha high above his head, and with the strength of his hands, he actually tore the Yaksha waist in half, and the blood poured down like a waterfall, staining the mecha's whole body red from head to toe.

The lion mask of the mecha re-emerged from the rain of blood, and like Hong Yuesheng, who was sitting in the control seat inside, staring at the fake abbot with his red eyes, "Cheers!" ”

Hong Yuesheng, who was bathed in blood, raised the corners of her mouth slightly and said with a sneer.

The fake abbot didn't show a trace of panic when his men were all wiped out, he turned around and used the manipulator that shone with a black metal brilliance to flip the switch in the direction of the ferry on the operating table, and then turned back to face Hong Yuesheng.

"Applejack, I don't care what your reason is, but you've endangered the Mirage and the Governor's Palace, I'll give you one last chance to capture you right away!" Hong Yuesheng threw down the body of the Yaksha that had been broken in two, and gave a final warning as she walked towards the fake abbot.

The fake abbot twisted his head and left and right shoulders to make a crisp "Caracalla" joint sound, and then he assumed a posture to face the battle, his right hand stretched out flat, palm up, and made a provocative gesture to Hong Yuesheng.

Hong Yuesheng stopped talking, manipulated the mecha to rush towards the fake abbot, and punched the fake abbot's mask.

Boom!

To Hong Yuesheng's great surprise, the heavy blow of the Lionheart King Mecha was actually caught by the hand raised by the fake abbot! Even if it's a replacement prosthetic, there's no reason why it can stop the power of the Lionheart Mecha, which even the Universal Yaksha can't match?!

"I've never mistaken you, you've been a bone-back little mouse from the beginning." The fake abbot said something unbelievable again, but Hong Yuesheng suddenly felt as if he had heard it somewhere.

Although he caught Hong Yuesheng's punch, the hurricane from the blow blew into the fake abbot's face, and the mask cracked a long diagonal crack from the center outward, and then the mask shattered into pieces.

Seeing the face hidden under the mask, Hong Yuesheng's eyes widened in surprise.

It's indeed someone Hong Yuesheng knows, but it's not Applejack.
