Chapter 267: A Cruel Choice
Da Gu left, and he drove the Victory Feiyan No. 1 in front of everyone, because Castor, as the advisor of the victory team, directly bypassed the sect and gave orders to Da Gu.
But the people of the victory team were not angry, as if they had predicted it a long time ago, and in order to make up for the disappearance of Dagu, Casto had sent someone to send the earth shark Gaiozak to a valley not far from the scene.
Munakata and Shinjo began to run towards the valley, the Earth Shark Gaiozark had been transformed into a two-seater version after the last battle with Gorzan, and it had proved that it was difficult for anyone other than Keigo Masaki to control such a huge mechanical beast alone,
This is not just a test of brainpower, concentration and physical strength, but an all-round test for the human body.
Lina and her father, as well as his father Nanase's lieutenant Asamiya, return to Victory Flying Swallow One, and they are tasked with piloting Victory Flying Swallow One to cover Munakata and Horii.
However, although everyone on the victory team was very anxious, the scene was not so critical, because the newly enlarged Rechulan seemed to attract all the attention of the huge monster that fell from the sky, and everything seemed to be safe.
In the open space that is not too big, two huge lifeforms are holding each other, and the Rechulan people are already numb, although they don't know what it is, but it is obvious that the human race has prepared a secret weapon to deal with him, "Although I don't know what you are, but you are the same as humans, you will die!" ”
When the word 'human' came out of the mouth of the Rechulan star, the huge mechanical lifeform on the opposite side suddenly moved, as if it had captured the word.
Xincheng came to Kirino's side, took over Dagu's work, and directly helped him up and began to evacuate, "Kirino, what is this thing?" Do you know? Can you see your prophetic power? ”
"Look at it is able to see some of it. It's called Ligadron." Kirino was a little helpless, he didn't know what to say.
At this time, the Rechuran had already begun to move towards the Lejadron, and a stream of light flew out of the Rechulan's hand and smashed on the body of the Legadron, but did not leave any trace.
"Xincheng, turn on the all-channel call of your victory team." Kirino said, "I think you should be prepared."
"What preparation?" Xincheng was stunned for a moment, but still obediently turned on the communicator, "This is Xincheng!" This is the new town! Mr. Kirino will be in charge of providing information next. ”
As soon as Xincheng finished speaking, before the others could reply, he saw that Lichu Delon began to move, his arms like sharp blades slashed straight towards the Rechuran star, and the Rechuran star flew out upside down under such a heavy blow, as if sensing the gap in strength between the two sides, the Rechuran star decisively changed the battle strategy and began to try to sneak attack Lichu Delon by moving.
Looking at Ligadelon's movements, he suddenly frowned, and he vaguely felt that this monster called Ligadelon by Kirino, for some reason, gave him a very familiar feeling, and at this moment, Kirino's words made him almost untenable.
"Actually, that cosmic monster called Ligadron is not a cosmic monster in the true sense, in essence, he is just a spaceship parasitized by Sophia's lifeforms."
With Kirino's words, there were bursts of exclamations from the communicator, as if sensing that everyone had a lot of questions to ask, Kirino directly sped up the speed of speaking,
"The prototype is the Sophia sphere, an unknown energy body wandering through the universe without emotion or substance, which attacked and attached itself to the Jupiter exploration ship Jepta-3 and its crew."
"Wait!" Munakata suddenly spoke, "For Sophia's lifeform, we have also formed a special response team within the TPC, according to Asuka Kazuma, Masaki Keigo and Casto, they have given relevant information about Sophia's lifeform, and devouring humans also means"
"Yes, Ligadron is a monster created by reading the feelings of the crew, which is perhaps why he is particularly powerful."
"Particularly powerful? How powerful is it? And what about the astronauts now? What about their own consciousness? You see the future, tell me! ”
Kirino looked at the somewhat excited Shinjo beside him, who was already a little affected by his emotions, and sighed, and Shinshin found that with Kirino's sigh, his emotions seemed to have stabilized a little.
Shinjo was stunned for a moment, and then remembered Kirino's ability, which was the ability to feel what the other party was thinking and feeling, and he realized that just like Sophia's lifeform devouring the emotions of those astronauts, the emotions that he had just been impulsive and anxious were likely to rush towards Kirino in an instant.
"I'm not that vulnerable, you weren't targeting me just now, I know." Kirino's deep voice sounded in Shinjo's mind, and at the same time, his voice was also transmitted to the ears of the others through the communicator,
"When I faced the Thunder Clan before, I never gave any information to the Victory Team, because I knew that even if there was no information about me, even if there was no so-called Light Giant or that Demon Knight, just relying on the Victory Team's own strength, you would have enough ability to defeat the Thunder Clan."
"But Ligardron is not the same, unlike the Rechulans, no, not even from all the enemies you have ever seen, Ligardron is very powerful, and in the future I see, neither your victorious team nor the so-called giants of light can take even a second of advantage from his hands."
"Yes, not only the victory team, but even the giants of light, Tiga's attack on Ligadron has no way to really stop him, and the attack of humans can't even cause insignificant damage to him."
"Is it because of the Jeep III's own super-defensive outer material?" Shinjo, who calmed down a little, frowned and began to think about Kirino's words,
"As far as I know, Jeepta-3 is probably the most successful spacecraft of the TPC Space Development Agency to date, although it does not carry the Max power system, let alone the legendary Zero drive, but the Jeep 3 is the most comprehensive, and compared to the role of scientific expeditions, Jeepah 3 also carries the task of validating those technologies."
Shinjo looked up at Kirino, "This includes the material technology that was supposed to be used in the new field era of the future. ”
Faced with Xincheng's speculation, Kirino shook his head, "I can only see the picture, I can't the specific details"
"I know the special material on the Jeep 3, it's really strong, but it's not as strong as Kirino described." Suddenly, Horii's voice came from the communicator,
"That material is indeed the latest cosmic material prepared for the new realm era in the future, but if that monster called Ligadron is really that strong, it should be that Sophia Lifeform has strengthened that substance."
"Kirino, you just said that in the future you see, neither Tiga nor the Victory team can do effective damage to Ligadron, right?" Munakata's voice rang out beside Horii, "But you didn't say that Ligadron caused huge casualties, so I can understand that in the future you see, we have found a way to defeat him?" ”
"Yes, your victory team is indeed very good, and you seem to have quickly found a way to defeat him."
"Can you tell us more about what we should do?"
"Are you sure you're ready? If I don't say anything now, in fact, with the current strength of the human race, it is not necessarily impossible to defeat Rigadelon."
"Please!" Shinjo looked at Kirino and bowed deeply, "Even if it's for the sake of the three astronauts on the Jeepta-3, please tell us what we're going to do!" ”
The entire communication channel was silent for a while, and after a while, Kirino said with some difficulty, "Awaken the consciousness of those three humans in Ligadelon's body, and then work with them to defeat Lijadelon inside and out." ”
"Wake up!" Xincheng said incredulously, "So you mean! ”
"That's right, it's literal, I don't know if it's because this Sophia lifeform can't devour consciousness well, or if the human consciousness is too powerful."
"In short, the three astronauts on the Jeepta-3 are not disappearing at the moment, nor are they completely dead, their consciousness is now asleep, in the body of Ligadron, asleep."
"You can wake them up, and if you need to, I can try to use my telepathy to contact them, but I'm not sure if that's a humanly acceptable way."
"If we don't choose to wake them up and choose to kill Legadron directly, then maybe it will be a greater mercy for those three astronauts." Kirino's voice became very serious, "As a human being, as an astronaut full of ideals, it is a cruel thing to learn that you have become a monster and return to Earth no matter what. ”
Xincheng's footsteps began to become heavy, he seemed to understand why Kirino was so struggling to say how to defeat Rijadron before, obviously, when he knew that the consciousness of the three astronauts had not disappeared at the moment, everyone in the victory team also felt the cruelty that Kirino said.
Kirino's voice was cold, but also helpless, "I'm just an ordinary person, I can't help you make any choices, but my special ability has made me feel countless lives, feel all the possible pain, I know, tell you this, it's cruel to you." ”
There was silence in the communicator, and no one dared to make a decision at this time, not even the most excited Xincheng just now.
"But if you don't tell us, it will be even more cruel to us." Munakata's voice came from the communicator, "Nanase-sanata, I seem to understand your feelings now, but it must be a lot of pressure to be the one who fired the cannon, right?" ”
"How the hell did you give that order? It really is. It's so cruel~~"
"Commander Zongfang, when you said this, you had already made a decision, right?" Victory Feiyan 1 flew through the sky, and Nanase's voice sounded in the communicator, "This is what a responsible leader should do, do what you think is right!" ”
"Of course! That's our responsibility! Munakata shouted loudly, "The Earth Shark Gaiozark is ready!" Commander Nanase and Lina, I'm going to trouble you father and daughter to cover us. ”
"Yes!" *2
"Shinjo, take Kirino to a safe place, and then contain those two big guys from the ground!"
"Yes!"
"Horii and I will attack from the ground next, and if we can, try to kill them in one fell swoop while they are both defeated!"
"Yes!"
"Just let those three guys full of ideals leave peacefully in their sleep, and wake them up at this time, it's too much. It's brutal! ”
Munakata made his choice, and while it didn't seem like the best choice for the commander of the victory team, it was the best respect for the dead heroes as a human being, and he was ready to endure the same criticism as Nanase.
Under the order of Munakata, the victory team, which was already somewhat negative, finally acted on Nanase again.
Shinjo helped Kirino to sit down on the back of a hill, he looked at the Rechulan people who were scuffling together, or were being beaten unilaterally, and suddenly said, "Speaking of Kirino-sama." ”
"What?"
"Did Casto and Keigo Masaki know about Ligadron, or did they predict that something like this would happen?" Shinjo, who had completely walked out of his emotions, suddenly became clear in his mind, "As far as I know, before the launch of Jeepta-3, Casor and Keigo Masaki seemed to be blocking the Space Development Agency's exploration plan. ”
"It's possible, I can only say that although I haven't met Keigo Masaki, if it's the two of them, it's possible." Kirino knew that Casto could also 'see' the future, but he didn't know what the future would look like.
"But if that's the case, then the problem is, logically speaking, since they have allowed the Jeepah 3 to be launched, then according to what I know about them, they should have done the finishing touches on the follow-up."
Xincheng said with some confusion, "Even Dagu has been called away, they should have other plans, right?" What is Keigo Masaki doing at this time! ”
Just when Xincheng was puzzled, suddenly from the top of the hill where he and Kirino were leaning, a familiar cold snort came, and Xincheng looked up and saw a man in a white coat, bathed in the rising sun, looking at them condescendingly.
"Humph! You're a mediocre talent, do you occasionally think of using your brain? ”
