Near Japanese territorial waters, aboard the Son of Danu.
After the Demon King aircraft was brought to the Son of Danu by Mithril's small transport helicopter, Xiao Ran parked the aircraft at the designated location according to the instructions of the commander. When he jumped out of the cockpit, Xiao Ran discovered that he was next to the Demon King. Many members of the Son of Danu were already surrounded.
These people all expressed curiosity, surprise, or other expressions as they admired the machine that turned from black to gray after shutting down the system. The machine was about 60-70% similar to the Arbalest but completely different. as.
But these people did not ask for information about this machine after Xiao Ran came out. For these ordinary members of Mithril, they also knew what to ask and what not to ask. This machine obviously did not belong to Mithril. , naturally outside their scope of understanding.
Within a few minutes, Tessa, Chidori, Cruz and the injured Kalinin also appeared in Xiao Ran's eyes. The moment the three entered the Son of Danu, Xiao Ran's mind also popped up. A ding sound prompts:
"Ding, the side mission is completed, completely disintegrating A21, protecting Mithril Colonel Tessa, rescuing Major Kalinin and safely returning him to the Son of Danu. It has been completed. The reward is 2000 combat merit points, Mithril's favorability is increased, and the tendency towards justice is increased. "
Xiao Ran didn't have any surprises about the completion of the mission. All the Sons of Danu attacked, and the combat troops and special operations teams acted at the same time. They captured and shot countless members of the A21 organization. Even if they missed a few people, they still wouldn't be surprised. There is absolutely no way to escape the pursuit of the Japanese government.
After all, such a terrorist attack has made Japan very angry. As long as there are captured A21 members on hand, even if someone slips through the net, they will never be able to escape for too long.
But what surprised Xiao Ran was that when Chidori, Tessa, and Kalinin came out, there was also a woman who was handcuffed and detained, a woman wearing a white AS combat uniform. Xiao Ran knew who the woman was, the real leader of the a21 organization, but he didn't expect that he would be caught, brought back and pushed directly into the cell.
After Kalinin returned to the Son of Danu, he was immediately sent to the ship's infirmary by the medical staff. Tessa walked directly in front of Xiao Ran and saluted Xiao Ran with a military salute. I also solemnly said thank you.
"Thank you very much for your help. Thanks to you, we were able to rescue Major Kalinin and delay the installation of the huge AS. Otherwise, the consequences would be serious."
As she spoke, Tessa also lowered her head slightly, showing a somewhat annoyed expression: "Although this incident has nothing to do with our mithril in nature, after all, we are also involved. If the city suffers too much, If it is destroyed, we Mithril will also be under great pressure."
"It doesn't matter. This is what I should do. Don't forget that we are in a cooperative relationship and you are also within our protection. This is necessary to ensure your safety."
Xiao Ran smiled slightly, looked at Tessa's lowered head, and patted Tessa's head gently without any awareness of her habit, just like comforting Shirley and comforting Rukino Saki.
After Xiao Ran made this action, everyone around him who saw this scene opened their eyes in astonishment. They looked at Xiao Ran and then at Tessa, and finally focused on Xiao Ran who had naturally retracted his hand. Many people's eyes were burning with blazing flames, looking at Xiao Ran hatefully.
However, Xiao Ran had no consciousness about this. Although he could feel that many people around him were staring at him, he did not feel that there was anything wrong with his comforting actions as an adult. On the contrary, Tessa was shocked by Xiao Ran's actions. He blushed and kept his head down without even daring to raise it.
Xiangliang Sousuke, who had a prim look on his face, also shed a few drops of cold sweat after seeing Xiao Ran's actions. At this time, he was already thinking about whether his comrades would suddenly rush towards Xiao Ran, which instructor should help teach him? It’s better to help those comrades fighting together.
"Ah." Mao let out a soft ah after seeing Xiao Ran's movements, and then looked at the people around him who covered their heads helplessly. Cruz's eyes lit up, and he folded his hands and prepared to continue watching with interest. play.
Only Chidori clearly noticed that something was wrong with the surrounding atmosphere, but he just rolled his eyes and was quite speechless at these Mithril members: "What are these people thinking? If I keep in touch with them more, I will become You idiots, what’s so surprising about such an ordinary action? Do you even understand why?”
Tessa raised her head with a swish. After seeing the eyes of the people around her, her face turned red again: "Well... that... Anyway, thank you. Vice Captain Richard will help you arrange the rest."
After saying that, Tessa quickly trotted towards Gnaku, who was preparing for the Son of Dannu. The movement of trotting away was very graceful, but before she even took two steps, her nickname of sports idiot started to show up again, and she directly covered her left foot with her right one. His feet began to flop towards the floor.
For others, it would be difficult to react to such a situation even at a close distance, but for Xiao Ran, at least every movement of Tessa was clearly seen in his eyes, and he instantly stepped forward and stretched out his hand. Pulling, one hand grabbed Tessa's shoulder, and the other hand grabbed Tessa's wrist, and steadily helped Tessa upright.
Looking at Tessa who was still in fright, she breathed a sigh of relief and showed embarrassment until she realized that she had not fallen. Xiao Ran also let go of her after saying: "What are you doing in a panic? Be careful not to fall." fall down."
"Oh." Tessa nodded sheepishly. When she saw Xiao Ran let go of her and turned directly to find Vice Captain Richard, she turned around with her mouth bulging and strode away.
Vice Captain Richard has always maintained a calm and old-fashioned look. After seeing Xiao Ran coming over, he just saluted and said thank you. At this moment, the trio of Mithril and Xiao Ran are really worthy of their respect. It's full cooperation.
Luo is responsible for technical cooperation, Elf is responsible for intelligence cooperation, and Xiao Ran is responsible for combat cooperation, and cooperation in all three aspects has achieved considerable results.
For example, Luo's technical support for Mithril and the design and manufacturing of Mithril's new machine are now in the experimental assembly stage, and they have surpassed the fourth generation of the third-generation AS that even the United States has just begun to equip. generation body. A body that is larger than ordinary AS, has stronger energy than AS, and has higher fire defense than AS.
As for Al Elf, after such a long period of detailed analysis and investigation, they really found out a few people who were not quite right among Mithril, including the head of the Intelligence Department, Jerome Bo. However, because there is no concrete evidence, or because they want to convey wrong information to the outside world through these people, these people have not been arrested for the time being.
More importantly, such an important position among the top management of Mithril is actually occupied by someone who is not quite right. Jerome Boda of Mithril, Mar Amit, although they are not sure whether the other person is really He is a traitor, but he also wants to find more things through this secretary named Jackson.
As for combat, there is no need to say more. Xiao Ran was able to suppress the huge AS that destroyed an entire port in Japan with one AS using his operating skills alone. Although in the end, he had to let Sosuke Sagara clean up the tail. But it is enough to prove Xiao Ran's terrifying fighting ability.
If you are dealing with a non-λ-D-Day Ver. body, it will be almost absolutely crushing on the battlefield. But even when dealing with a body equipped with λ-D-Day Ver., as long as the performance of the body allows, you can still attack it. Cause a certain amount of suppression.
If we judge based on driving skills alone, Xiao Ran can definitely be called the strongest in the world at this time, including all the super zone participants.
After discussing with Richard about going back, Richard arranged for a small helicopter to transport Xiao Ran. Chidori and Sosuke Sagara were the first to go back to Japan. As for Mao and Cruz, they had a short relationship due to other tasks. I'm afraid I won't be able to go to Japan and join up with Sosuke Sagara within that time, so the only person left on Mithril's side to protect Chidori is Sosuke Sagara.
However, although the people left, the body was left on the Son of Danu by Xiao Ran. When the time comes, Mithril will be sent to Japan and handed over to Xiao Ran. At the same time, a disguised carrier vehicle will be borrowed for Xiao Ran to use when the Demon King does not need it. Place it when in use.
When Xiao Ran and the others returned to Chofu City, they also felt the changes caused by the battle last night. The whole city became extremely calm at this time. There were police driving and patrolling on the road everywhere. I saw the helicopters and AS branches of the defense force in various places in the city, completely ready for war at any time.
After all, the damage caused by the giant beast was too terrifying. An entire huge port was completely reduced to ruins, and the losses could only be described as countless. No wonder the Japanese government was so nervous.
In the view of the Japanese government, this time it was because of the assistance of Mithril that the damage was limited to the port area. But if not, if Mithril could not stop it, you will know if you think about it. In front of the huge AS, not only the port is as simple as the port, I am afraid that the entire city will turn into a sea of fire and hell overnight.
Therefore, the Japanese government will never dare to slack off until almost all of the A21 fish that have slipped through the net have been caught. (.)
