(This should be 2525)
Lelouch couldn't refuse Selleus's invitation. He nodded and prepared to leave the airport with Selleus. He didn't know that the so-called Roaring Lion Army was not finalized at all. The two sides had just reached a cooperation. The basic premise is that you can go back on your word at any time. Following the other person and leaving like this is equivalent to leaving your life in the hands of others, but Lelouch has to do this.
Selleus sent out a friendly invitation, and he also needed to show courage and trust to the other party. It was like a gamble. No one could tell what would happen until the final outcome was revealed, and Lelouch had no idea what would happen to him. He is also quite confident in his abilities. Although he feels a little weak, his performance is still quite majestic and natural.
Corgi, on the other hand, was specially arranged by Xiao Ran to protect Lelouch. At the same time, due to the mission, he also had to ensure that Lelouch was safe and sound. The current situation has become a bit difficult. After all, the Scarlet Knights and the The Roaring Lion Legion was still an opponent before. Corgi really didn't dare to risk his own life. If he didn't drive the machine into the base camp of another participant legion and was still on a mission, then what would happen to him as a participant? How bold and ignorant do you have to be to do such a thing? Being here now is enough to make Corgi's hair stand on end and his nerves become tense.
But being in the machine body is still safe. After all, as a pilot who is not weak, he can also bring a great threat to the low-level pilots of the Roaring Lion Legion, and can also be used as a deterrent, but if he really jumps out of the machine body, it will be so real. Whatever happens, the sky and the earth will not work.
It’s not that I don’t know anything about the Corgis of the Roaring Lion Corps. Although they are opponents in this mission, the legions in the Super Zone will always look up and not look down no matter what in the Super Zone. In terms of the overall strength of the entire legion, the Roaring Lion Legion is the same as the Scarlet Knights. It is at the level of an upper-middle-level legion in the super zone, and the overall strength should be higher than the Scarlet Knights.
However, from the information he had collected about the Roaring Lion Legion, Corgi only knew that the members of this legion seemed to be very united, small in size but very powerful, and that they had the potential to become a higher-level legion. It was rumored that the legion was Long Seleus has experienced several very dangerous missions, but in the end he passed them successfully, and his strength has grown rapidly. One of the information improved in the intelligence is also worth noting, that is, their credibility seems to be very good
As long as we can reach an agreement with them during the mission, there is no need to worry about the Roaring Lion Corps breaking the agreement. Apart from this, there are not many things that can be collected to represent the credibility of the Roaring Lion Corps, so how did such rumors come about? There is also a feeling that there is no way to study it, but there have always been such rumors among the large group of intermediate legions.
In addition, the previous commander of the Roaring Lion Corps was not Seleus, and the Roaring Lion Corps was not that powerful at that time. Seleus was favored by the previous commander of the army, and became the commander of the army after a certain mission. Because of his growth, Extremely fast personnel are excellent, and they have a very strong relationship, so they are not opposed by other members of the legion, and then lead the legion to climb to its current position step by step, which feels like a counterattack.
As for how Seleus's strength improved, when he became a participant, and how many missions it took to develop such strength, there is no way to know.
However, it is not known why the previous legion commander passed the position to Seleus. After all, the internal affairs of other legions are not easily leaked. In Corgi's opinion, the result is nothing more than two or three reasons. The first one is dead, the second one is converted into a resident of Prometheus, and the third one is quitting the legion. However, considering the original strength of the Roaring Lion Legion, the first reason is much more likely, but if the third one is Three reasons, Corgi didn't know how to guess what the story would be.
So Corgi really doesn’t dare to bet on whether the Roaring Lions really have a good reputation or are they pretending to have such a good reputation. Even if the rumors are true, as a participant, it’s best to have some vigilance and suspicion. suitable.
In this case, Corgi chose a safer approach, which was to temporarily turn a deaf ear to what happened next. Although he wanted to ensure Lelouch's safety, he could only act as Lelouch's safety guarantee within the body. , Secondly, although he can't follow Lelouch to confirm his situation, he can still let other people follow Lelouch as a guard if he doesn't go. He can also learn of any changes as soon as possible.
The last point is because of Xiao Ran. It was Xiao Ran who asked Lelouch to come, and it was Xiao Ran who asked him to come here. To be honest, compared to Lelouch, Keji felt that Xiao Ran was more trustworthy, so Xiao Ran would call them here. He is definitely sure, and he doesn't think that Xiao Ran and Seleus have a premeditated plan to get rid of him. As long as Xiao Ran continues to surround the Roaring Lion Legion as a threat, the possibility that the Roaring Lion Legion will not dare to mess around will be very, very high. Moreover, the coordinates of the headquarters of the Roaring Lion Legion have been confirmed. As long as Xiao Ran comes to attack, he will be able to completely destroy the Roaring Lions. Corgi also has the confidence and courage to persist until Xiao Ran's arrival.
Having made a decision, Corgi opened private communication and arranged for a skilled subordinate to follow Lelouch. He sat in the cabin as steady as an old dog, and Lelouch, who was only guarded by one person, did not show any dissatisfaction or expression. He was afraid, but he also felt relieved. He also felt that sitting on the machine would ensure his safety.
But the last participant who was arranged to get off the plane and follow Lelouch had a face as calm as ice and a heart as anxious as fire.
After the escort participants stood next to Lelouch, Seleus also glanced at Corgi's body and smiled generously without showing any provocation. He also understood Corgi's choice and smiled. He said to Lelouch: "The pilot of that machine over there is probably the machine piloted by Corgi Knight, the leader of the Scarlet Knights of Butaria. It seems that he really cares about your safety, zero, but please Don’t worry, that Corgi knight, anyone who wants to harm you in this place must first step on the corpses of all our Roaring Lion Legion members.”
Lelouch saw the seriousness revealed in the other person's eyes, and the face under the mask was stunned for a moment, and then gave Seleus a smile: "I believe in Commander Seleus's sincerity, then I am here Safety is entirely up to you, please.”
"plz follow me."
Corgi watched Lelouch, Seleus and his men enter a building and disappear from his eyes. The communication in the cockpit suddenly sounded, and the hesitant voice of a subordinate also reached his ears. .
"Um... Boss... Is this really okay? I mean, let Lelouch and Sipu go in alone?"
Corgi's eyebrows twitched twice and he said angrily: "Then do you want me to ask you to follow me immediately? What's the use of you just saying this now?"
"Hey, no, no, no, I think it's good to stay in the machine. Anyway, the other side doesn't dare to do anything to Lelouch and Spoo. If we fight our lives in their base, their losses will be too much. It won’t be small, and when that masked knight comes over, they will be the only ones unlucky. Boss, you are so wise to put aside the original conflict and turn such a powerful guy into our ally.”
When Corgi heard this, he couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth. He had turned the masked man into their ally, but they were clearly forced to become his subordinates by the two Lelouchs.
However, Corgi would not be modest in front of his men. He snorted and said, "It's not wise to lead you through so many missions again and again. Well, shut up and be careful."
"Yes, boss."
Corgi shook his head, pulled out the keyboard, wrote a text message and sent it quickly. The destination of this message was naturally the frontline base in District 19, but it was not sent to the frontline base, but to the remaining base. The men at the frontline base asked their men to tell Xiao Ran and Cornelia the current situation.
Xiao Ran, after receiving the notification from Corgi's subordinates, also nodded. Corgi did not follow Lelouch, but put down his face and chose to stay in the machine. However, he was satisfied with Selyu. Well, Xiao Ran felt that that guy should indeed be a consistent man, not the kind of person who would make promises but then regret things.
Then Corgi would send a message from time to time to say that everything was normal. Xiao Ran also continued to pay attention to the situation of Lelouch and Corgi, and finally, several hours later, Corgi sent a message and had started to return. , Xiao Ran also had a smile on his face, because he received a prompt, a very simple prompt that the annexation of forces could be expanded. Xiao Ran did not expect such a prompt to appear, but he was completely sure about it. The Lions have become a member of the Black Knights.
Not long after, Xiao Ran's communicator rang because of Lelouch's call, the communication was connected, and Lelouch, who had taken off his helmet, appeared on Xiao Ran's personal communicator screen.
Lelouch did not wait for Xiao Ran to speak first, but with a slightly proud smile: "Everything goes well, the resistance army has officially merged into the Black Knights and become an independent force of the Black Knights. They will resume their duties after a short break. The activities have begun under the name of the Black Knights, but I have no specific arrangements yet, and I need to discuss with you how to arrange them."
"Thank you." Xiao Ran nodded with a smile and said, "I have to think about the specific arrangements. The Black Knights in District 11 are already strong enough now, so there is no need to send them to District 11." To replenish your strength, you can also think about how to arrange them and use their power to make the Black Knights more famous, instead of being limited to the small place in District 11."
Lelouch also agreed and said: "Well, District 11 does not need much power anymore. Under such a situation, if you want the Black Knights to develop again, it is indeed time to move outside."
Xiao Ran said: "I do have some ideas. After a while, I will also need them to cooperate with me in District 19 to carry out an operation. In the name of the Black Knights, they will gain a certain advantage in District 19 and then intervene and end the war." , but I haven’t figured out how to do it yet, and it will take a week.”
Lelouch's lips curled up when he heard Xiao Ran's words: "If you have such an idea, it may be difficult to rely on their strength to do it."
Xiao Ran expressed doubts: "Huh?"
Lelouch said: "Although the other party's willingness to join the Black Knights is a major prerequisite between you and them, the other party is not completely unconditional. They are willing to help the Black Knights, but Seleus made it clear He will never go against the EU people, nor will he participate in any military operations against the EU. According to his wishes, he would rather leave this war zone or develop externally."
"Is there such a thing?" Xiao Ran pondered, and probably guessed what Selleus was thinking. After all, Selleus's legion and EU's participating legions once belonged to an alliance. It is not clear to what extent the alliance is. But after all, they are acting together. It is timely and inevitable to withdraw from the alliance. Choosing not to conflict with the EU is purely a matter of character.
Shaking his head, Xiao Ran said: "In this case, there is no need to force them. If the other party can put forward such conditions after joining us, it means that as I said before, the other party's character is trustworthy. For us, It should be a gratifying thing, there is no need to alienate them who have just joined us because of this kind of thing.”
"I thought so too, so I agreed to Selleus's condition at that time." Lelouch said: "And their combat power is indeed very high. Being able to join the Black Knights is already a great addition. It's just that you accept What to do next? You want to use the name of the Black Knights to intervene in the war, and you also want to prevent the EU from facing the two forces of Butaria and the Black Knights at the same time, so as to temporarily maintain the advantage gained. and when to act next.”
"But without Selleus' Roaring Lion Legion, it would be difficult to achieve the goal you want to achieve by relying solely on the current direct combat power of the Black Knights. After all, this requires absolute force."
"There is still one week left, so all expectations can only be pinned on one week later."
"A week?"
"That's right, there's still one week left. The machine that Lloyd built for me will be completed in one week. And as long as that machine is completed... even I alone can do such a thing."
