That guy Gilliam is very well hidden. He is the kind of person who can do things with only 30% of his strength but never use 50% of his strength. He is definitely a guy at the same level as Youzes, with both technical combat ability and strong personality. His abilities can be considered superhuman, he is mysterious but just, and he is a very reliable partner.
Judging from Xiao Ran's understanding of Kiliam, the reason why Kiliam is like this without using his full strength is not because Kiliam is deliberately hiding it. Maybe he has never thought about hiding it. , because he never shied away when the legion really needed him, but in Xiao Ran's view, this guy still had some things in his heart, some obstacles, so he had been condensing his strength, but he really had to meet a certain need. He would use all his strength to deal with the enemy, and Kiriam would definitely not hide even a little bit.
A project that is very important but not particularly difficult can be handed over to Gilliam. Xiao Ran can feel completely at ease. Moreover, it is just a research project and not a combat mission. Needless to say, there will be more later. Xiao Ran would not have any doubts about whether the result could be achieved with the support of the entire legion. The key was just time. However, in addition to starting to summon the Whisperers on the earth and asking Kiliam to preside over the project, Xiao Ran also needed Find another more critical person to cooperate.
After making an agreement with Luo, Xiao Ran left the technical department and returned to his office. The person Xiao Ran was looking for was naturally Chidori. As the most special being among the Whisperers, he seemed to be afraid of technical matters. Interest, but her importance goes without saying, not to mention that the one Xiao Ran really wants to cooperate with is Sophia in Chidori's body. Chidori, as Sophia's peer, cannot be avoided.
But this time was different from last time. After all, he had something serious to say, so Xiao Ran did not take the initiative to go to the module where Chidori was. Instead, he formally asked someone to bring Chidori to him from that module.
When Chidori arrived, Xiao Ran was still looking at the battle report from the previous day. When Chidori and Sosuke Sagara entered his office, he gently clicked to turn off the virtual projection in front of him, then stood up and faced The two of them nodded and raised their hands: "Here we come, I have something to do with you, please sit down first."
In the home, the office used by Xiao Ran can be said to be huge, but there are not many superfluous things in the huge office. There is a huge desk, then a chair behind the desk and several computers in front. There are a chair, and then a sofa round table next to it, plus a wine cabinet and basically nothing else. It is quite refreshing but also full of science fiction. Everything in the entire office seems to be integrated, at least for For people who don’t go in and out often, it’s hard to find a relaxing feeling under this kind of decoration.
Chidori and Sosuke Sagara, who came to Xiao Ran's office now, were like this. They were a little nervous and a little uneasy. After sitting on the chairs as Xiao Ran said, they looked at Xiao Ran eagerly.
"Wine, coffee, drinks?"
Chidori forced a laugh somewhat uncomfortably: "Just a drink."
Xiao Ran pressed the button on the table and tilted his head slightly: "Bring in two drinks."
Soon, a secretary from outside brought in the drinks Xiao Ran asked for and placed them in front of Chidori and Sagara Sosuke. Then he walked to the wine cabinet and poured a glass of wine for Xiao Ran and put it down.
After the secretary left, Xiao Ran said to the two of them: "Don't be so nervous. Let's have a drink first and we'll talk slowly."
Sagara Sosuke sat with his head held high and did not move much, but his serious expression could still explain his current mood. As for Chidori, he raised the cup and drank slowly through the straw, feeling uneasy and a little absent-minded: "Yeah. "
When Chidori put down the cup in his hand, he looked at Xiao Ran and asked hesitantly: "Um, what's the matter with Mr. Xiao Ran calling us here this time?"
Xiao Ran did not answer but asked instead: "You should have heard about the battle on Earth the day before, right?"
Chidori nodded: "I've heard about it."
"Yeah." Xiao Ran took a sip of wine and said slowly: "In the recent invasions of dimensional beasts, more and more powerful dimensional beasts have appeared in our battles with the dimensional beasts. At least for the earth, Those powerful dimensional beasts are at least capable of destroying a country, and similarly dimensional beasts have also shown more aggression towards the earth."
Chidori didn't understand why Xiao Ran said this to her, but Xiangliang Zongsuke clearly showed surprise when he heard these words from Xiao Ran.
"In fact, because yesterday's battle gave us a better understanding of the dimensional beasts, and through some special means, we found out what the world where the dimensional beasts live is like, I think it is necessary to explain it to you."
"The space where dimensional beasts live is a small world, a small fragment of a complete world. The whole world is almost as big as the earth, but this is not the main thing. The main thing is that we have discovered more than one billion in that space. A large number of dimensional beast legions, as well as hundreds or more, have the super combat power to suppress or destroy a continent alone."
"According to my personal guess, if the Dimensional Beast Legion does not trigger a method similar to Dimensional Shock to integrate the world, it will fully invade the world within half a year to nine months at the latest. Once the Dimensional Beast truly invades, Even though I am sure to destroy all these dimensional beasts with the strength of my army now, the earth will also be destroyed."
Chidori Kaname's pupils contracted. He didn't know whether it was because of fear or other reasons, but he felt a chill in his vest and some uncontrollable trembling.
Xiao Ran said: "You don't have to be so nervous. I will not easily let the Dimensional Beast Legion successfully come to the earth. But being so passive is not a good thing for us or the earth, so we are also looking for A proactive approach to problem solving.”
"I'm not telling you this to scare you, but you have a solution to our current predicament. I need you to cooperate with our research as much as possible. But for some special reasons, the person in your body, Sophia will also be of great help to us. Next, I hope to get your permission to have an exchange with her. If the exchange can be successful, it is estimated that you will join us as an intermediary on both sides in the next period of time. to one of our projects.”
Chidori stayed for a while, feeling quite complicated. He looked at Xiao Ran and asked in a low voice: "Mr. Xiao Ran, can you tell me why you contacted Sophia?"
"It's okay to tell you?" Xiao Ran pondered and said: "Sofia's ability is very special, and she has the ability to create parallel worlds. This is very important to us, and it is also one of the directions we have planned for the Dimensional Beast Legion. , hoping that with her power, the dimensional beast can be trapped in another world that will never stop reincarnating, and will no longer be able to pose a threat to any world."
"After all, the number of dimensional beasts is too terrifying, and once the dimensional beasts are allowed to enter this world... then the humans in this world will also become the transformation material of the dimensional beasts. In fact, all dimensional beasts can be transformed after our research It must have been transformed from humans through some special means. If the fortress of dimensional beasts is allowed to enter this world... "
"What we are about to face is likely to be a more terrifying situation. As for the other reason, it is related to the secrets within our legion. At least there is no way to announce it to you now. If we can reach an agreement with her, let us know. You have nothing to do with it."
Xiangliang Zongsuke fell off the chair, with a rare expression of shock on his comic face. He propped himself on the chair with one hand and looked at Xiao Ran in disbelief.
Chidori Kaname became completely dull because of Xiao Ran's words. He wondered if there was something wrong with his ears, and asked hesitantly and tremblingly: "Mr. Xiao Ran, do you think the dimensional beasts are transformed from humans?"
"Humans are converted into some kind of material, but they no longer have anything to do with humans. Whether it is genes or souls, they have been transformed into other species at the life level, and that is already another world. I discovered a continent in the world of dimensional beasts. Perhaps these dimensional beasts were transformed from the aborigines of that continent, but that means nothing to us anymore. All we have to do now is Protect this world from being invaded by dimensional beasts, and prevent humans on earth from becoming the material for the transformation of dimensional beasts.”
"Chidori, Sousuke, I hope you won't tell anyone else what I'm telling you now. Even within my legion, only a few people know about it and have been issued a hush-hush order. After all, Monsters are monsters, but when monsters are transformed from humans, it is likely to cause some unnecessary thoughts. At this time, there must not be anything that disrupts the morale of the military, otherwise it will also be a problem for this world. It’s a disaster.”
"At least you can feel it. Those dimensional beasts are simply monsters that only know destruction and killing. They have nothing to do with humans anymore. If you don't want this world to become a home for dimensional beasts to plunder, I hope you can Cooperate with our work.”
"Although we do have a way to destroy the dimensional beasts now, the earth will also be destroyed because of it, so we can't just think about how to deal with the dimensional beasts with the idea of fighting. With the help of you and Sophia, That would be a huge help to the world.”
Sagara Sosuke stood up and gently put his hand on Chidori Kaname's shoulder. Feeling his shoulder being held, Chidori looked at Sagara Sosuke and saw the seriousness and earnestness in Sagara Sosuke's eyes. Determination, this look immediately gave Chidori more courage and made her feel at ease.
"I agree."
"reject."
Chidori and Sosuke Sagara looked at Xiao Ran and spoke at the same time. Chidori chose to agree, but Sosuke Sagara chose to refuse on behalf of Chidori.
Xiao Ran looked at the two guys who were looking at each other and communicating with each other just now. When they said completely opposite answers in the next second, he couldn't help but tilted his head and laughed softly. Then the two guys looked at each other again. , both of them looked confused and didn't understand each other's thoughts at all, which made Chidori tremble with anger and Sousuke trembled with panic.
"Sosuke!" Chidori stood up from the chair and roared angrily, slapped Sosuke on the head with a folding fan, and sent the still confused Sousuke flying away, looking at him with hatred. Sosuke Sagara, who was on the ground, gritted his teeth and cursed: "Asshole."
After saying that, he turned to look at Xiao Ran: "Mr. Xiao Ran, I agree. If it is a place where I can help, I will never refuse."
"Chidori!?" Zongsuke got up from the ground and looked at Chidori in confusion, but at this time Chidori also promised Xiao Ran that he would cooperate fully for some inexplicable reasons, which made what Zongsuke was saying meaningless. .
Xiao Ran glanced at Xangliang Sousuke, shook his head and said to Chidori: "Thank you, Chidori, but you can rest assured that this is just a simple cooperation and will not cause you any problems."
"Sousuke Sagara, I know what you are worried about, but now it has come to a time when everyone with power needs to unite to protect the earth. No one can do it alone. I will explain to Mithril about Chidori. , but also next, including Mithril, and all forces under the entire unity must start to act according to my will, even Tessa must join the same project team as Chidori."
"This earth belongs to you. If you don't even care about it, then why should we, as outsiders, care about you? There is no need for my precious soldiers to sacrifice for you. You can think about it carefully. , to the earth, we are just guests who can leave at any time, but as for you, who have not even entered the universe, if you cannot rely on dedication and unity, how on earth are you going to resist the invasion of dimensional beasts? In half a year, the future of mankind will be determined in this last half year, whether to fight hard or give up, what choice will you make, Sosuke Sagara."
Of course Xiangliang Zongsuke's answer will not be problematic, but the premise is that all this has nothing to do with Chidori Kaname. Looking at Chidori Kaname's firm back, Xiangliang Zongsuke slowly lowered his head: "I understand, Mr. Xiao Ran , I hope to join your army."
"You are welcome to join. Your machine will be delivered to you soon. A brand new and more powerful machine, but before that you need to do some learning and strengthening."
