Chapter 725: Mangla Storm (3)
"You've been walking around there since just now, aren't you tired?" Sitting on the coffee table with a cup of black tea, the mercury lamp looked speechlessly at Randy standing by the window and sighed, "Or are you thinking about how to join her and do something bad to the alliance after learning that your precious apprentice is here?"
This is a normal room in the Mangala Palace, and after General Fair has arranged for Randy and them here, Jura asks the maid for some black tea and dessert to relax her tense nerves. Since his hands were not long enough to sit on the sofa, the chairman simply sat down on the coffee table, which looked very beautiful and lovely against the background of the delicate silver tea set nearby.
Desperately holding back the idea of holding the little doll in front of her and rubbing it in her arms, Yura put down the teacup and looked at her lover and asked, "Randy, what's wrong with you?" β
As if awakened by the girl's gentle call, Randy, who was in deep thought, suddenly raised his head, turned around and smiled at her, "No, it's nothing, I'm just habitually speculating on the real purpose of Hannah's action." You also know that this is a problem that I can't get rid of, don't worry. β
"Really, thinking too much about everything will lead to a loss?" Yura pouted when she heard this, "and there will be a lot of wrinkles in advance." β
β...... Girl, should I remind you that I'm a demon who has lived for thousands of years?" Randy pinched the bridge of his nose and smiled, "If it were a human, I would have become a mummy a long time ago, and it doesn't matter if I have wrinkles or something, right?"
"Uh-huh. Mummy, hello, goodbye, mummy. The mercury lamp took over the conversation without being salty, "Then Mr. Mummy, who has not died for a thousand years, about the evil plans of your precious apprentice." Do you have any idea after meditating by the window for a long time?"
It's still as uncute as ever. Randy glanced at the Chairman and didn't care, but replied lightly, "No." β
"I'll go, after you pretended to pace for a long time, you actually gave me a 'no'!?" The mercury lamp elegantly put down the teacup and squinted at the silver-haired handsome guy and pouted, "At this time, it shouldn't be to use a confident expression to analyze and speculate on the other party's general plan and way of action, and then explain how to deal with it one by one, leaving everyone with an image of a super wise man who is strategizing and winning thousands of miles away, right, and directly say to the fans who are full of expectations that you have no clue, what are you going to do!?" Your title of Demon Commander is crying, Ariki!?"
Randy's face didn't change in any way, and after glamorously ignoring the Chairman, he walked over to Jura and sat down and explained to her carefully, "That's right, Yura. You know that all speculation requires a lot of intelligence to base it on. Speculation divorced from intelligence can only be regarded as unrealistic personal speculation. Unfortunately, I don't have the means to get information right now, of course. Nor is it possible for the Coalition to voluntarily provide me with confidential information, and how can I, who am completely blind and deaf, analyze and speculate on Hannah's plans?"
"Well, there's no way around it. Yura didn't pay much attention to this, and gently rested her head on her lover's shoulder. "But Randy. Why do I think you don't think Hannah came to assassinate you?"
"She certainly didn't come out to assassinate me. Randy couldn't help but snort slightly, "Of course, it would be better if you could kill me by the way." I guess Hannah's girl was trying to use the assassination of me to alert the city's defenses......"
Turning his face to the side to avoid the flashbang of the two, the mercury lamp suddenly looked at the silver-haired handsome guy again: "Wait a minute, this shouldn't be possible, which stupid thief would take the initiative to trigger the alarm before trying to break into the house?"
"It's a pity that the thief wasn't stupid, but he was quite smart. Randy continued, following the mercury lamp, "She and a few of her men deliberately set off the alarm at the front door, waiting for the guards in the big house to stay where they were and get their attention. She herself sneaked in and stole the most precious treasure in the house. Of course, this was only my speculation based on Hannah's usual methods and style, and the sudden and large number of Praetorian Guard soldiers being sent out of the palace. Don't take it too seriously. β
Despite this, Randy's statement still caught the attention of Mercury Lamp. The puppet immediately ordered the guards at the door to find General Fair.
"What's the matter, I'm busy right now. Upon entering the room, Fell said straight to the mercury lamp suspended in mid-air.
"Has there been any progress in your search operation?" asked the Chairman straight to the point, "such as the whereabouts of the enemy somewhere?"
Vigilantly glanced at Randy, who was affectionately hugging Yura on the couch to feed her sweets, and after making sure that the other party was not using tricks, he nodded to the little puppet in front of him and said, "Yes, we got an anonymous report that a homeless man's shelter in the slums is actually a secret stronghold of the Dark Empire. After covert reconnaissance, it was discovered that this was indeed the case, and now the area is being encircled, blocked, searched and captured...... Is there anything wrong?"
The mercury lamp, whose expression changed drastically, couldn't bother to explain his doubts to the puzzled Uncle Fair, and hurriedly flew up to Randy and snatched the cake he was about to stuff into Yura Sakura's lips, "Now isn't the time to feed your girlfriend dessert!?
"How do I know?" the handsome silver-haired guy who was robbed of the cake was not angry, grabbed a napkin and wiped Yura's mouth and replied slowly, "Maybe she plans to blow up the entire palace with great fanfare, maybe she just snatched a lollipop from the hands of a little Lori in the park and closed the team, it all depends on the mood of the girl, how can others speculate? But generally speaking, the target of the attack should be the most valuable target, that is, ...... Alicia?"
"Her Majesty is now in the Garden of Hope. Fell reminded from the side.
"Ah, I'm sorry. Randy pounded his left palm with his right hand (deliberately) and made a look full of realization, "I almost forgot what kind of character that little queen is." Leaving the whole country alone like this is already a common thing for her. Since you can't assassinate the dignitaries of an enemy country, stealing the enemy's military secrets or research materials is another good option. After all, the Alliance and the Dark Empire are at war, and these two points will directly affect the course of the war. β
Fair's face changed instantly.
"Oh yes. Looks like I've said something?" Randy said indifferently as he stroked his chin, "In that case, Lord General, please take care of yourself." By the way, I will help us and ask the maid to bring some refreshments, thank you. β
The furious Phil didn't care about what refreshments he called for them, and hurriedly rushed out of the room.
Alicia handed over to the Technology Development Department the design drawings of several ultra-advanced weapons that are said to "completely change the situation that the coalition is stronger and weaker than the demons", and Phil knew about it, and the little queen also told Fair to strengthen the defense measures here. What if Hannah had set her sights there......
Fell, who was covered in cold sweat, couldn't help but run faster.
βββββββββββββββββββI'm the fast dividing lineβββββββββββββββββ
"Hey, you're running really fast. Hannah frowned as she looked at the messy room in front of her. "What else did you say that it was not discovered by the people inside, and the people had already run away. β
This is the core part of the alliance's technology development department, where the squatters in white coats gather together to drink tea and chat to pass the time...... I'm talking about a place where all kinds of ideas and inspiration come together for research. Due to Hannah's attack, the incident happened suddenly. Most of the materials were not sorted out or destroyed, so the researchers chose the most important part.
For example, the sonar samples that have been completed, such as the model of the fighter plane that has been concocted based on the drawings sent by Elicia, such as the design of a sky battleship that has been replaced with a long flat deck under the instructions of the little queen, all of which will shine in the future war with demons.
Still, they're missing something.
"Mistress Hannah, there's an interesting model here. One of the men who was searching at a crafting table suddenly bent down and picked up a small object from the floor and said loudly. "You'd better come and see. β
Treading on the papers scattered all over the floor. Hannah walked gracefully to his men: "What did you find?"
Respectfully holding it in front of the girl with both hands was a wooden model of a main battle tank - but alas, the model only finished the upper part of the hull turret.
"Turret?" Hannah said, scratching the bridge of her nose for a moment, "is this going to be installed on a battleship, it doesn't feel right." Whether it's the Union or the Empire, the hemispherical design should be the most perfect, what's the use of such a flat turret?"
The subordinate then handed in a document that was mostly mutilated: "Although the specific effect is not stated in this document, it is mentioned that this weapon is intended for use on land." Obviously. The Coalition is already preparing for a landing on the Empire's homeland. β
"What, use it on land!?" Hannah's voice suddenly rose an octave. provoked the busy subordinates around to look over, "I see, is it because of the lack of timely fire support on land, so I plan to develop a magic crystal cannon with protective capabilities?"
"Hey, my lord, why the Magic Crystal Cannon? Wouldn't it be better to compress weapons with energy. β
After sighing helplessly, Hannah covered her head and said, "Sure enough, only Ying can answer my words at this time." You idiot, the energy compression weapon is fired in a straight line, and it will only hit your own people in the back. Could it be that you will push your precious cannon directly in front of the troops? Only the magic crystal cannon that can shoot can be used as land support firepower. This flat turret is presumably designed to protect the gun body from damage, and it is also easy to install wheels under it to increase the engine power, which is really a tricky weapon. Pack up the model and the materials and bring it back, that guy from Monier should be very interested in it. β
Once her men had started to do so, Hannah continued to rummage through the papers, trying to find anything else interesting. However, it seems that the researchers of the Coalition are concentrating on developing a propeller that can operate at extremely high speeds, and I really don't know what the hell they are up to. Could it be that they want to further increase the speed of the coalition's surface ships?
Hannah, who felt that these materials were useless, casually threw them on the ground, looked around and asked, "Did you find anything else?"
Shake oneβs head.
Seeing this, the girl gritted her silver teeth and smacked her mouth fiercely, as she pondered whether she should continue to dig deeper into the researchers who were hiding in the vault. Her communicator rang, and two of the guards at the entrance issued a warning: "Lord Hannah, a group of Praetorian Guards are hurrying this way. There are about ten minutes left until arrival, so please hurry!"
It wasn't a large force that arrived in a hurry, but a small group of Praetorian Guards, suggesting that the Alliance had sent reinforcements on an improvised basis after someone had figured out their plan. And that person is undoubtedly Randy. Hannah stomped her foot in annoyance when she heard this: "Damn, it came so quickly. Now I had to give up, and everyone was ready to evacuate immediately! I don't want to have dinner in the Union prison. β
Everyone left the research room with some messy documents, and before leaving, they didn't forget to light a fire inside.
It took a lot of effort for the Praetorian Guards to finally extinguish the fire. And Fell, who led the team, had already foreseen with tears in his eyes that he was being called to his side by Alysis, who was smiling sweetly and gracefully, and a large amount of black gas was condensed behind him, and then he was kicked down by the little queen in front of many courtiers, desperately stepping on his body in a loving situation - in other words, if it was replaced by His Royal Highness Prince Locklip, he would definitely be happy and unable to extricate himself.
"Report to the general, the researchers have taken refuge in the shelter in time. As a result, there were no injuries or kidnappings, but most of the materials in the lab were burned in the fire, and some of the equipment was damaged, and the research team leader said that the progress of the research could be delayed. A soldier walked up to the distracted Fell and reported loudly.
"It's over, she'll definitely kick me to the floor and stomp me hard with her little leather boots when she finds out. Fell covered his face with tears in his eyes as the soldier watched in embarrassment. "You know, she told me to protect this place closely. β
"Yikes. No matter how bad His Majesty's personality is, it won't be to the point of shaking S and stepping on people, right?" the soldier wiped a handful of cold sweat and said with relief, "General, you think too much. β
Fell tugged at his hair and didn't mean to relax at all: "You know what, I'd rather be trampled on by His Majesty." β
"General, could it be that you are shaking M...... No, I didn't hear anything just now. β
The middle-aged uncle didn't pay attention to the witty soldier brother in front of him, raised his head and looked up to the sky and sighed: "Because Her Majesty the Queen is an out-and-out black-bellied, she will no longer pursue it after she is trampled under her feet in public, and she doesn't care about it on the surface, but usually secretly makes trouble for you everywhere." Which do you think is better?"
β...... Enjoy the soles of Her Majesty's boots. After a long silence, the soldier said to him with a serious face.
Alicia, who was far away in the Garden of Hope, suddenly sneezed hard for no reason.
Fell's fantasy of being trampled under her feet in front of countless people on the sacred golden temple of the Empire didn't last long, and the Golden Shadow and Franlinos, who hurried in, interrupted it. The general, who seemed to have been pressed a strange switch in his heart, took the initiative to greet him and greeted: "Ah, Golden Shadow, you are here." β
"How's the loss?" Although he was a little curious about the middle-aged uncle's slightly red face, Xiao Dian finally decided to talk about serious things first, "Did Hannah steal any important information?"
"The damage was not huge, and the researchers were all unharmed. Fellsan smiled and scratched the back of his head and said, "As for whether the other party stole the information...... As you can see, they set a fire before leaving, so it is impossible to be sure. β
After Fran walked into the room, she flipped through the documents and played, and Xiao Dian didn't pay attention to her: "Then get the researcher and ask them what information they brought with them before they fled." β
"Yes, yes, but what's the point of doing that?"
"Of course. "We need to assume that all the information they didn't have time to take away was stolen by Hannah, and then deal with it." β
Fell nodded approvingly, "I see." I understood, so I called them. β
A few minutes later, a very bad news came to Fell and Xiao Darkβthe team responsible for the development of the main battle tank had left half of the model and incomplete documents in the research room in a panic. Although the fire burned a lot of things, their workbenches are quite well preserved.
And now, the models and files that were supposed to be around there are gone.
"What kind of weapon is this main battle tank?" Fair couldn't help but ask the trembling team leader, "is it powerful?"
Xiao Dian next to him couldn't help but show a curious expression.
"It's the most perfect combination of firepower, armor and mobility I've ever seen. The leader of the group said sweatingly, "Her Majesty once told me that if she gives her 3,000 tanks, she can easily wipe out the 100,000 elite iron cavalry built by the Roland Empire without using other troops!"
Fell suddenly felt that he was likely to be trampled to death on the spot by the enraged little queen on the Golden Palace...... (To be continued......)
