Several days have passed in a flash. In the past few days, there has been no situation in the entire eleventh district. It is calm and peaceful. The Knight of the Round Table, Jino, who was defeated by Xiao Ran, has no face to show up to Xiao Ran and Euphilia. In front of them, the whereabouts of the two Knights of the Round Table could not be hidden from Xiao Ran, who had been keeping people staring at them. novel.
For several days, the two young boys and girls not only did not appear in Xiao Ran's eyes, they did not even appear in every formal occasion. They were almost completely immersed in the eyes of others, but Xiao Ran knew that these two little boys Every day, the guy would go outside the city's ring line and personally enter the peripheral ruins to watch the shattering of the outside world and experience the hardships of those eleven. He would go out early and come back late every day to observe the world more clearly with his own eyes.
The people who keep an eye on the two of them will report to Xiao Ran every day what they have done today. As long as Xiao Ran knows who the two of them have contacted and where they have gone, it is enough. As for other things, Xiao Ran really doesn’t have the time. Just keep an eye on these two immature little guys.
Xiao Ran spent his time in the special old research institute every day, working overtime with the controlled technicians to complete the replenishment of the transforming fighter aircraft as quickly as possible. Many of the equipment manufacturing work was done personally. Joining it can be regarded as the first time Xiao Ran has really devoted himself to technical work. At the same time, with a large number of personnel stationed in the new research institute, it has slowly begun preparatory work for the research and development of new technologies.
Xiao Ran also took the time to meet with Lelouch and met the ten pilots selected by Lelouch. Among them were the girl named Kallen whom Xiao Ran had seen before, and the girl who almost died but was saved by Xiao Ran. The truck driver came down.
These people couldn't hold back their shock when they saw Xiao Ran. Xiao Ran's masked appearance had already spread to every corner of District 11 along with several consecutive incidents. As a sign of opposition to Butali Asia's resistance organization, even though they have now joined the Black Knights, which has higher pursuits and righteousness, does not hinder their familiarity with Xiao Ran. After seeing Xiao Ran, the exclusive knight with the highest authority in District 11, and is about to become After the Knights of the Round Table, the mood of the ten people could no longer be described with simple words such as shock, but was quite complicated, including disbelief, fear, anxiety, etc.
However, these ten people selected by Lelouch to become pilots also imposed the geass command on all of them, a special command that would not be triggered under normal conditions, just like Lu Luxiu did in the original plot. Just like Lu Xiu gave Suzaku the order to live, he will be controlled by Geass's order once the life and death situation comes. When they decide and are betraying and leaking information about the Black Knights, this order will be triggered to control them. Choose death.
It was precisely for this reason that Xiao Ran appeared in front of the ten selected people without any worries. Lelouch's geass ability was a real attack that ignored defense for ordinary people, and there was absolutely no way it could be attacked. There is a possibility of immunity, so there is no need to worry about the secret that Xiao Ran is one of the founders of the Black Knights being leaked.
These ten people, Xiao Ran, all took out a copy of the adjuster's blood for them to use. After all, they are the people who will become the first armed force of the Black Knights in the future. Such investment is of course necessary, and there is one among the ten. In the future, Kallen can grow to a level comparable to the Knights of the Round Table. As long as the blood potion can exert its fullest effect on her, even if the other nine blood serums can not play such a big role, they will still be worth all the votes. price.
And just like the absoluteness of Lelouch's geass command, the effect of the blood serum is also absolute. It is a medicine that can greatly increase the overall quality of the pilot. As long as it is a human, it will definitely be able to use it to produce corresponding effects. Effect, there is a lower limit for the result after strengthening. Even the person with the worst health will not be lower than this lower limit. How can he have physical fitness and reaction ability that are beyond ordinary people? If one of these ten people awakens and develops the spirit If there is a special ability similar to that of an adjuster, then these ten blood potions would be even more worthwhile, but the probability is basically non-existent for ordinary people.
All ten people used the potion under the supervision of Zero, who transformed into Lelouch, and then asked these ten people to leave the meeting place, leaving only Xiao Ran and Lelouch.
With only the two of them left, Lelouch also took off his helmet to make himself more relaxed. While putting down his helmet, he also said to Xiao Ran: "Congratulations, you are about to become a Knight of the Round Table."
Xiao Ran glanced at Lelouch and shook his head slightly: "What exactly do you want to say?"
"Heh." Lelouch laughed and said: "Your development is getting faster and faster, and suddenly you have become one of the most powerful Knights of the Round Table in the empire, but what are you going to do with the Black Knights? ? What the Black Knights want to do is completely opposite to what you want to do as a Knight of the Round Table."
"In this way, when you lead the army to oppress the weak, and the Black Knights appear, should you or the Black Knights win?"
"Is this what you are worried about? Even if I become a Knight of the Round Table, I will only appear on the real battlefield." Xiao Ran waved his hand and said: "No one can force me to do something I don't want to do, and becoming a Knight of the Round Table does not I wanted to take the initiative myself, but the Bimaxian Knight seemed to be very optimistic about me, and I happened to need the information that could only be obtained after becoming a Knight of the Round Table, so I agreed to him."
"And after I become a Knight of the Round Table and use this status to gain more rights and supporters, wouldn't it be more beneficial to Nunnally? At least after we overthrow the current emperor and let her sit on the throne, it will also It can ensure that her throne is more stable."
"Also, I have already cured Nunnally's eyes and legs. It's just that she has just been cured now. She can't be like a normal person yet. She needs to be nursed back to normal for a period of time. I will be able to return to normal by then." She will be exchanged to you again, or I will continue to take care of her."
Lelouch's body stiffened for a moment, and he looked at Xiao Ran with dull eyes: "Is he cured? Can you see?"
"Yes." Xiao Ran nodded lightly and said: "What Nunnally suffered from was not a disease at all, but was affected by the power of geass, which took up residence in her brain, modified her memory, and made her instinctively recognize Because I am a blind man and a cripple with no use of my legs. As long as the influence of geass is removed, I will naturally return to normal."
Lelouch's eyes flashed: "Who is it? You know who it is, right!?"
Xiao Ran looked at Lelouch quietly: "If you want to know the answer, then you must be mentally prepared to know the answer, and you must also be prepared to know all the behind-the-scenes stories about this matter, because this answer is very important to you." It’s too cruel for you.”
"Cruel? I've done even more cruel things with my own hands. What can't be accepted?" Lelouch seemed to understand something. He lowered his head and became silent with a complicated expression. It wasn't until several minutes passed that he slowly raised his head: "There are people in the royal family who have the same OD ability as...?"
Xiao Ran glanced at Lelouch and said: "His name is vv, an immortal ode ability user, your father's eldest brother. At the same time, your father and your mother are both geass ability users, a person who can modify other people's memories. , and the other did not trigger his geass ability until before his death due to ability issues, and is currently possessing another person in a state of soul and consciousness."
"But I will only tell you so much. It should be said that these people have their own purposes, and the story inside is too complicated and I am not very clear about it. The only way to find out the truth about Nunnally becoming like this is by yourself. All I can say is that I hope that after you get the final answer, you won’t find it all too boring and bloody. But not everything is so beautiful, and not everything is so indifferent. The most important thing is that you have to have yourself. judgment."
Lelouch suspected that Xiao Ran must know something else. It was definitely not as complicated as what he said now, so he didn't know it. Although it was not clear for what reason, Xiao Ran only touched on these things. But Xiao Ran didn't say anything, and Lelouch also knew that he couldn't ask anything more from Xiao Ran.
Besides, some things, especially those related to family matters, require you to find the answers you need. Lelouch suddenly understood why Xiao Ran was unwilling to say more. There are many things between smart people that need not be said. Being able to let the other party understand that the current situation is nothing more than that Xiao Ran needs Lelouch to confirm the truth by himself, and is not willing to be a villain anymore.
Of course, Xiao Ran would not say in front of Lelouch that his parents were conspirators, and tell Lelouch that the existence of the two brothers and sisters was actually more like tools. All he did was indifferent and selfish to satisfy himself. You must know that now Lelouch only has positive memories of his mother, and he still puts her dead mother on an equal footing with Nunnally. How could Xiao Ran explain this to Lelouch without evidence? , which simply made the already good relationship between the two worse.
Lelouch calmed down for a while, then suddenly raised his head and looked at Xiao Ran: "You just said that my mother also has the ability of geass, which was triggered before she died and then attached to other people!? This is true!"
"It's true." Xiao Ran nodded lightly and said, "But I won't tell you who this person is. It will do you no good to contact this person now. You will only be deceived without knowing the truth, and now It's still too early for you to get in touch with these things. You don't have the power that truly belongs to you. Only when you grow up and truly understand everything and are qualified to talk to them on an equal footing can you deal with it more calmly. All questions."
Lelouch's face was happy, but he quickly stopped his smile and frowned slightly. If Xiao Ran hadn't said those words before, then of course Lelouch would have known that his mother was not really dead but still alive at this moment. He was extremely ecstatic, but Xiao Ran's words made Lelouch a little unhappy.
"No." Lelouch looked at Xiao Ran with some confusion: "But, how do you know these things? If you can know this, it means that you should be an insider, but it is obvious that no one knows about it at all. You, otherwise you wouldn’t be able to become a Knight of the Round Table?”
Xiao Ran smiled slightly: "The mysterious powers that exist in this world are not just ode and geass. Don't you already know this very well? And since there are people who are ready to destroy, change, and even set off a huge wave in this world, then naturally There will be people who will protect the world and maintain order and peace according to the established path. In such a world, everything can be a secret, but also nothing can be a secret. The key is that some people think that others do not know, but in fact they are. He doesn’t know it himself.”
Lelouch took a deep look at Xiao Ran: "I don't understand why the current task is to strengthen the Black Knights, right?"
Xiao Ran nodded: "The growth of the Black Knights will be an indispensable force for stabilizing the world."
"Now the world has begun to move towards chaos. Organizations and forces suddenly appear one after another. In the empire, in the big countries across the coast, in Europe, and in Africa, organizations with their own unique technologies have appeared in these places. Although the number and scale are Not too big, but the combat power it possesses can crush all parties, and is gradually starting a terrible war in this world. These people are my real goals and enemies, and they will also be the biggest enemies of the Black Knights in the future. No one can compete with us except us, so don’t let something change your original idea of establishing the Black Knights.”
"However, these organizations have not yet fully brought themselves to the forefront, so we still have time to develop ourselves quickly, but you have to remember that these organizations should have already sent people to District 11, so in the future, everyone who enters the Black Knight You must give geass orders to everyone in the regiment, and they must become slaves or never betray."
"For their purpose, they will definitely try their best to find traces of the Black Knights and eliminate any existence that threatens them. They may also want to control Euphilia to obtain District 11. You must Be careful, if anyone can’t solve the problem, please contact me as soon as possible and I will come over and solve them.”
Lelouch frowned and nodded. The more Xiao Ran said these words, the more doubtful Lelouch became. He wondered what all this was about, and what the organization Xiao Ran was talking about was. Suddenly , a square object was handed to Lelouchi's eyes by Xiao Ran, disrupting his inner thoughts. After reflexively taking what Xiao Ran threw to him, Lelouch looked at Xiao Ran again.
Lelouch asked, "What is this?"
"A special data storage device, which stores the technology I want to give you. Didn't I ask you to prepare the factory before? This is the data of the new series of airframes, as and lambda drivers. You will know after you go back and see for yourself. Especially It's a lambda drive, and this thing has the powerful ability to change reality, so you must be careful with what's inside."
