Ten minutes later, the forest arena.
The rocky beach was in a mess, and the scorched bare rocks emitted bursts of blue smoke under the night.
Dean drove the white mech giant "Xuan Bing" in a chaotic car, and the technician's cabin was blown to pieces. Fortunately, the technician was safe and sound, but he was so scared that his legs went limp when he came out, and his legs went limp along the mecha shell. rolled down.
Claire was badly wounded, and Dean found a cushion on the ground and helped him lie on it. His embarrassing face is very different from the arrogant and domineering look in the past. A kind-hearted person like Dean couldn't help but gloat in his heart, but then he thought that he fell like this to protect his companions, and quickly held back .
"You can laugh if you want to," Claire said hoarsely, "I can see it."
Dean remained silent.
"You have a good technician, without him you can stand here now? Fifty steps are laughing at a hundred steps."
Claire was silent for a while, and said relentlessly: "You just got lucky and asked Omega to accompany you on the battlefield. Anyway, I can't do this kind of thing..."
"It's endless!" Dean threw the towel and said, "If you don't want to be treated, just get out of here, and I don't want to serve you either!"
Claire took a deep breath and was about to retort when Gavin came over with a healing device: "What are you talking about?"
Both of them immediately shut up.
"It's too old to stop. The next group of people don't know when they will come." Gavin held the healing instrument Sedien in his hand, pointed to Claire, and said concisely: "—Heal him. I'll go Look at the mecha."
Dean's face changed: "There is another group of people?!"
Gavin waved his hand and left without looking back.
It is stipulated in the competition that no treatment cabin can be brought, and this kind of treatment device is only for preliminary treatment of wounds. With a splint tied to her chest, Claire sat on the ground weakly, with a crackling bonfire in front of her eyes.
Dean walked back and forth to pack his things with a straight face, while Gavin sat on the ground tens of meters away, holding a tablet computer, concentrating on adjusting the spirit bolt of the mecha Xuanbing.
"I said," Claire couldn't control his mouth again: "Who marked him?"
This question really hit Dean's pain point, and he immediately said angrily: "I don't know! It's not you anyway!"
"Of course not—you don't know? You guard him like a chick all day, you just missed going to the bathroom with him, and you don't even know who marked him?"
"none of your business!"
"Tch, why is it none of my business, a single Omega is none of the business of all Alphas." Claire rolled her eyes a few times, and asked in a low voice, "Is it someone from the school?"
"..." Dean said reluctantly, "Probably not."
"I don't think so either. The strongest Alphas in the school are concentrated in the mecha team. No one in the mecha team has as strong a pheromone as he does. —Could it be the military department?"
"Impossible, even the military..." Dean's voice paused, with hesitation on his face.
Claire knew that he grew up in the military department, and his family had contacts with many military generals, so he immediately cheered up: "Do you have any clues?"
"I was thinking... no no, it shouldn't be possible—"
Dean was still hesitating, but Claire kept urging anxiously. After a long while, Dean finally couldn't help it anymore, and said hesitantly: "...it is said that His Majesty the Emperor came to the school that day..."
The two looked at each other, and after a while Claire burst out laughing.
Dean also seemed to find it ridiculous, smiled and shook his head and stopped talking. After a long while, Claire staggered up while leaning on the rock. Looking at Gavin's back in the distance, he finally broke his heart and said, "There is no result after guessing and guessing. I will ask him myself!"
Dean knew that if he asked, he would not be able to find out, but he was happy to see his rival in love deflated, so he strongly encouraged him: "Yes, go ask! Go ask!"
Claire walked two steps and panted twice, and managed to get behind Gavin. He was upright, with indifferent eyes, staring at the tablet computer intently, typing out countless complicated formulas and instructions.
A long electric arc knife was inserted obliquely into the crevice of the stone beside him, and the night wind swept over the blade, whimpering loudly.
For some reason, Claire was a little timid, so she changed the subject first: "How about Xuan Bing?"
The white giant was lying on a rocky beach not far away. His armor was torn, and his body was covered in soot. Broken wires protruded from his joints and neck, and tiny electric sparks flashed from time to time.
"There are not enough tools now, and the mechanical damage can't be repaired." Gavin drew a complicated circuit diagram on the operation screen, and said casually: "Let me help you adjust the spiritual bolt first, and let it restart... don't worry about it for a couple of days." After fighting, you can go to a professional technician to repair it after you get out of the forest."
Claire hesitated for a moment, pretended to be calm and sat next to him, squinting her eyes.
Gavin was unmoved.
"Cough," Claire cleared her throat, and suddenly changed her words: "—You just said that there will be another group of people coming..."
"A kidnapper."
"Yes, kidnappers. Do you know where they came from? Galaxy military academy?"
Gavin fell silent.
"It is said that their principal, Dana, is not a good person. He competes with us for the league championship every time. This year, he came up with such a bad idea after losing his eyes, and dared to play tricks on the young master!" Claire slapped the ground hard, and said angrily: " It's not that the firepower can't keep up, the young master must beat his mother so hard that he can't recognize him!"
These words fully demonstrated a certain male instinct of Alpha: I am Alpha, so I am the best. If I lose, it must be caused by external conditions. The words "inferior to human" must have never existed.
Gavin didn't take it seriously, but didn't show it on his face, he just turned off the tablet, grabbed the long knife and walked towards the mech Xuanbing.
"What are you doing?" Claire asked alertly, "This is the end of the repair?"
Gavin didn't look back: "Yes."
He stopped and stood in front of the iron giant's huge head, the sharp blade in his palm. Blood fell drop by drop from the clenched fist, and flowed into a certain groove on the head of the mech, which was the external interface of the physical and mental plug.
Immediately, a bright light flashed across the interface, and then all the blood sank into it, and was quickly sucked clean.
Clare was full of teenagers' thoughts at this time, and she didn't expect to come forward to check. He looked at Gavin's lonely figure behind the fire, and after reading over and over again for a long time, he finally couldn't bear it any longer, and tentatively said: "Gavin, I have something to ask you—"
"It's not a school or a military department." Gavin mocked without turning his head, "The current situation of the enemy is unknown, and you two are in the mood to guess what is there or not, so you have a strong mental quality."
"...!"
Claire was immediately embarrassed, never dreaming that Gavin's hearing was so sharp that he could hear the conversation between him and Dean clearly from such a long distance! And there is no expression on the face!
"I—I just—"
"Go to bed early, you'll be on your way tomorrow." Gavin turned around with his knife in hand, and passed Claire, with a hint of ridicule flashing across his face.
"I just..." Claire froze in embarrassment.
In fact, he wanted to grab Gavin's hand the moment they rubbed shoulders, but he didn't dare to move for some reason. Compared with the first time we met, Gavin seemed to have changed a lot. There was an invisible aura emanating from him from the inside out, suppressing the abruptness in the hearts of the people around him so that they didn't dare to show their heads.
What kind of momentum is that? Claire was puzzled.
If it had been Dean, he might have thought it was a posturing, a Jonathan thing, and nothing to be afraid of. However, Gavin was different for some reason.
He frowned and pondered for a while, and finally he was young and impetuous, and he pulled the blanket off in boredom and fell asleep.
Jia Wen repaired the mecha, healed the wounded, and waited for dawn, but he didn't know that the emperor was hit by a thunderbolt in the palace, and almost lost his wits.
"What did you say—?!" Heinrich asked incredulously, "What did you do—?!"
The man with the scar thought that he was furious at a group of military agents but couldn't beat a few military school students, so he bowed his head and pleaded guilty: "Your Majesty, calm down, the brothers are just arrogant and underestimated the enemy, it's not true... We will dispatch immediately after receiving the order from Principal Dana They bought two armed airships, but who knew that the list of contestants reported by the Royal Military Academy was fake, and there was an armed technician who could use his mind to control a C-class mech from the outside... "
"...Group B rushed to subdue the team that drove the mecha 'Xuan Bing'. They were all in sight of victory, but who would have thought that the team of 'Ran Zhu' suddenly killed a reinforcement—" The man with the scar paused, He cried bitterly: "That armed technician beat four or five brothers to pieces. I just wanted to take people down to fight back, but I didn't realize that he was..."
Heinrich's temples twitched, and he interrupted indiscriminately and asked, "Who told you to obey Dana's orders?! When did Dana become your leader?!"
The scar face asked angrily: "Isn't it you, Your Majesty?! Last time in the study, Dana asked how to make the Royal Military Academy lose the first pass. You said, 'You figure out how to do it yourself'. Dana asked how much money you can borrow?" Do you use it personally? You pointed at me and said, 'then you guys can cooperate when you have time'... "
Heinrich opened his mouth wide, and remembered for a while that there was indeed such a thing.
But the conscience of heaven and earth, Heinrich has hundreds of affairs every day, tens of millions of troops move, hundreds of millions of funds flow in and out, how can he remember all the few words he said casually? Although there are think tanks to assist in serious state affairs, but the Mecha League is a black hand, and even the cronies don't know it. Even if it is wrong, who can remind him
Dana is also a jerk, the emperor only said to ask his subordinates to cooperate, and Dana dared to put on airs and command the military agents in an upright manner! Who the fuck does he think he is!
The emperor's anger was directed at Dana immediately, and he asked inquisitively, "When did I say that?"
Scarface thought for a while: "It was around three o'clock in the morning last Friday, when the military headquarters adjourned."
"I was asleep at that time!" Heinrich suddenly found the reason again, and said furiously: "Give me a stick and take it seriously! Selective deafness! Why can't you hear me all day to rectify the internal affairs?! Said at three o'clock in the morning How can you remember it so firmly?!"
Scar covered his face and ran away, going straight to hide outside the study. After a while, seeing that the emperor's anger was not so strong, he slowly squirmed back step by step.
"Have you left something for the Royal Military Academy?" The emperor was still angry and asked, "Is there anyone else, and a team of military agents didn't catch them?"
It’s okay if you don’t ask this question, but the man with the scar immediately complained: “Your Majesty, do you know who the Royal Military Academy released to compete? That technician! That technician you marked! It's all soft, but the man is still rushing to the front. Seeing him, I wish I could slip faster... "
The emperor could not hear anything.
The emperor only felt five thunderbolts, and his eyes turned black.
"So... what does that person look like?" Heinrich asked with the last hope.
"I really didn't see it clearly, and I didn't have time to take a closer look at that time. But to be honest, the outline is very similar to Marshal Celia, and the whole is like a juvenile version. At first glance, it can be bluffing." The man with the scar thought for a while, gossip Said: "Is that really what you marked, Your Majesty? How can you say that when you face the face of the marshal?"
emperor:"… "
The emperor's last hope was also ruthlessly destroyed.
"Why did you go..." Heinrich said in a daze, "Dana told you to go and you went..."
The dignified emperor looked desperate as if he had run away from his wife. The man with the scar looked at it tentatively, and after a while he tentatively asked: "How about I take them there again now and kill those students from the Royal Military Academy? Your Majesty, you mark The Omega you are in can't run away either, brothers and sisters will bring all the elites of the military department, and promise to help you tie them back tonight... "
"You're going to shut me down!" The emperor immediately roared, grabbed the document and threw it over his head and face.
This operation was caused by Dana's improper command, and the elites of the military department went their separate ways. It's not surprising that a group of arrogant soldiers met Celia, whose combat power was explosive. But if the emperor personally took command and the military elite poured out their pockets, let alone a few cadets with eyes on the top of their heads, it would be no problem to get Celia himself back tied up and stuffed on the bed.
—The question is then what
Even if he gets the Phoenix in this way, can Celia let it go
Celia doesn't know the importance of the phoenix now. Edna's old woman must have urged him to participate in the competition, and he must have used the reason of "to defeat the galaxy military academy", so he doesn't know the inside story of the various battles between the emperor and the military academy.
Moreover, the military did not leave any evidence for this operation. Celia didn't know the origin of the kidnappers. If the incident finally came to light, it would be over if the responsibility was pushed to Dana's head.
But the current situation is that if the military department is really going to get involved with the Royal Military Academy, then without Edna's instigation, Celia can find out the disgraceful role played by the emperor in this incident—this is still light What if he becomes suspicious of Phoenix and finds his body in the cockpit
How to explain it then? "Gavin I love you because you're the Marshal in the cockpit" or "Gavin I love you but I love the one in the cockpit as well"? !
Either way, it's time to get out of the game!
The emperor was so angry that he scolded Dana who acted without authorization and Edna who tricked Celia into the competition. However, it's too late to scold at this time. Celia has already met with the people from the military department and became suspicious. What remedies are there
"... It's better to kill people and silence them..." Scarface suggested with a trembling face: "Catch Dana and kill him, and say he did it all..."
Heinrich thought it was a good idea, and wished he could do it right away! But the mech phoenix was not in hand, and the body hadn't been dissected yet, so he could barely bear the urge to chop off the eighteenth generation of Dana's ancestors, and shook his head, "No, now is not the time to do it."
"That-"
"If you want to do it again, you have to wait until the finals, otherwise it's too fake." Heinrich paused, and suddenly said seriously: "The most important thing now is to maintain the image of the emperor as a wise man. Take it out. Actually, I have an idea... "
