[Thanks to Mrrar, the monthly pass of the two brothers just for reading, the reward of the top dog]
When Zero returned to the bunker command room, a group of followers had already gathered here. Everyone, including Leah, looked at him a little strangely. Ling Shi smiled and said: "If you have any questions, just ask, don't look at me like that." Then, he walked to the brain by himself, entered the data, and compared the latest data between himself and the Knights.
Feng stood up and said: "Boss, we all think you shouldn't let Yafidi go, that's the commander of the 11th Army!"
"And then? Kill him?"
"That's better than letting him go." Feng said, and the others nodded.
Zero raised his head, looked at everyone and said: "This is not a duel between two people, but a war. Believe me, one Yafidi can't decide anything. On the contrary, if you kill him, then tomorrow we will see An army fighting against the enemy, I don't think you would want to face an enemy army with high morale."
"Just let him go because of this? Then we have killed fewer people these days?" Man Shan asked in a deep voice.
"It's not the same." Zero smiled and said, "Let Yafidi go back, first to avoid intensifying the emotions of our enemies and turning them into a death-fighting army. Second, it is to create some troubles for the Knights, such as... Suspicion .”
"Suspicious?"
There were bewildered expressions on everyone's faces, and Mr. X was the first to react. The former head of the group took the lead in nodding and said: "So that's the case, you want to further damage the morale of the Knights."
"That's right." Zero explained: "As you said just now, the first thing everyone thinks of catching Yafidi is to kill him and reduce the enemy's high-level combat power. How can the Knights be an exception? If it were you guys, if you saw that Yafidi came back suddenly, without any injuries, and his body and even his strength level were the same as usual, would you believe that I let him go without any conditions?"
"But you did let him go without any conditions," Liya said.
Nodding his head, he said: "That's right, that's the contradiction. The more Yafidi emphasizes this point, the more his colleagues will not believe it, and the mutual suspicion of high-level officials will directly affect the morale of the entire army. So You see, releasing a Yafidi is far more valuable than killing him. What's more, there may be times when he will be useful in the future."
Only then did everyone feel relieved, and Zero said again: "If you have nothing to do, go down first, but there is one thing I want to re-adjust. As the supreme commander, I hope you will not question any of my decisions. This is the last time, don't go down as an example .”
His tone was flat, but majestic, and he took a special look at Man Shan. Man Shanben is also a rough and bold person, but he can't help but bow his head when he sees it. When he realizes it, he realizes that he is actually afraid to look at Zero. Until he left the bunker, Man Shan couldn't figure out why.
After sending everyone away, Ling casually lay down on the ground. The ground was his bed, which reminded him of the night he spent on the cold ground of the Z7 base warehouse when he just woke up from the hibernation cabin. After that night, his life went on a magnificent journey. And this war will only be a small episode in this journey. The end of the journey is at the end of the world, in the dark abyss without light. Before reaching the finish line, Zero wouldn't be caught by anyone else, not Yafidi, not even their commander, Leo.
Zero believes that after playing Yafidi's move, the battle will be decided.
Before falling asleep, he called up the data of fighting Yafidi today, and then deleted his own data, keeping only Yafidi's. Then he began to reverse analyze Yafidi's spiral puncture. As long as he can master the data of the spiral puncture, his memory group can perfectly copy this ability gene, so that Zero's attack can also have the characteristics of the spiral puncture.
Spiral piercing may not be the most powerful ability in the high-level combat domain, but it is the ability with the highest defense-breaking effect. After mastering it, even if Zero has not advanced, he still has the strength to threaten the tenth rank.
It's just that it's not easy to analyze a high-level ability. Zero has built a model in his brain, and the virtual progress bar shows that it takes seven days. Of course, it wouldn't be so fast if it was analyzed out of thin air, but when fighting Yafidi, Zero collected a drop of his blood. With the cells and even genetic information in this blood as a reference, it will naturally be much faster.
After leaving the analysis work to the brain to operate independently, Zero closed his eyes. While he was resting, a dispute broke out in the barracks of the Knights at the foot of the mountain.
As Zero said, when Yafidian stood at the gate of the barracks intact, all the soldiers who saw him gave strange looks. Yafidi came to Leo's military tent silently. Leo sat with a gloomy face, while Frank looked like he was watching the show.
Looking at Leo, Yafidi nodded and said, "I'm back."
Leo didn't speak, but Frank said in a strange voice: "Look, our handsome Lord Yafidi is back. I don't know how those chaotic parties let you go, I guess, maybe you provided some special Serve?"
Yafeidi was furious immediately, and said, "What nonsense are you talking about!"
"Do I seem to be talking nonsense?" Frank touched his bald head and said, "Yafedi, you are the head of the regiment. I think it is impossible for the other party not to know you. Since they have captured you, if there is no benefit, they will take you You let it go?"
He looked at Li Ao again, and said, "Let's withdraw our troops, maybe some important information has fallen into the hands of the enemy."
There was a cold light in Yafidi's eyes, and awe-inspiring power filled his body: "Captain Frank, you are slandering!"
"Why, do you still want to do it?"
"If you insist on trampling on my dignity, I don't mind using force to defend it!"
Just when the two of them were at war, Li Ao said in a deep voice, "Stop arguing."
He stood up and said, "It is a good thing that Yafidi is back, and I also believe that he has not betrayed the Knights. Tomorrow, I will request a decisive battle with the leader of the Sea Gods."
Yafeidi's body shook slightly, and the power on his body disappeared. He knew why Leo did this, and Zero released him, which not only aroused Frank's difficulties, but also aroused the suspicion of the soldiers below. Even if Yafidi himself did not do anything to betray the Knights, it is an indisputable fact that the morale of the army will drop as a result.
Now Leo is going to duel with Zero in order to restore the morale of the Knights. But Yafidi is not sure, will Leo be able to defeat Zero
Without giving Yafidi a chance to question, Leo waved his hand and said, "You go down first and have a good rest. I have something to talk to Captain Frank in private."
Yafidi looked at Frank, nodded and exited the tent.
Frank tilted his head and said, "We have something to talk about."
Leo looked at him, and suddenly sighed: "I know, you are no longer the Frank you used to be. In the face of that grand will, you chose to surrender and become its slave. But Frank, I want you to do me one last favor When the decisive battle tomorrow, I will give you a signal, and when the opponent's attention is attracted by us, you lead the troops to penetrate their No. B position."
"You still know how to play this hand? It's not like you, Leo." Frank was obviously surprised.
"This is a war, and if you can win it, you might as well sacrifice some personal principles."
Looking at Leo's old face, Frank suddenly said, "Are you still not going to give up?"
Li Ao knew what he said, and the old leader smiled bitterly: "It's not that I don't want to give up, but I have already lost. In this battle of will, as early as when Zero attacked us for the first time. In order to master the complete nine I made concessions because of my super strength. It is only a matter of time before I am overwhelmed by that will. My weakness has already made me have no place in this war. Tomorrow I will have a decisive battle with the leader of the other party. First, it is for our Morale, and second, because I'm running out of time."
"But Frank, I won't surrender like you." Leo emphasized.
Frank sneered: "Is there any way you can get rid of the master?"
"There's always a way."
"Okay, stubborn Leo." Frank shrugged and said, "As an old friend for many years, let me remind you. Tomorrow's decisive battle, it is good to win, but what do you plan to do if you lose?"
"If I win, it means that Sauron still has some luck. But if I lose, it can only mean that his luck has come to an end." Leo paused, and said: "No, it should be said that he is on his own. When that man is hidden in the palace, Sauron's luck has come to an end. Even if I win, Sauron will have to come down from that throne sooner or later."
"That person, he can't hide it all the time. And when the matter was exposed, it was the time when the Pope Hall was split. Back then, we could support Sauron's betrayal because we needed someone like Sauron to lead the whole of Rome out of that period." During the dark period, His Highness the Pope was not bad, but he was too merciful. Facts have proved that under the leadership of Sauron, we have achieved today's glory. This is the reason why our Knights and several big giants support him." Li Ao sighed: "But now, he has begun to distrust himself. That's why he chose to surrender to that man, just like you Frank, Sauron began to betray everyone for power. Once other people know about this, Rome will cease to exist."
"Although Sauron is cruel, he is human after all. As a human being, he will weigh the pros and cons. But that man, and the will behind him, they will only bring destruction. They don't care about the gains and losses at all, do they? ?”
Frank laughed and said, "Leo, your understanding of Master is very accurate. Unfortunately, your understanding is not thorough enough, otherwise you would not have rejected Master's will."
"That's because I still remember that I'm human." Leo raised his eyebrows and said, "I also have my pride!"
Frank spread his hands and said, "You can do whatever you want. In the end, you will find that your so-called pride is worthless. Only immortality and strength are everything."
"Okay, tomorrow I will help you one last time, just for the sake of our friendship over the past ten years."
Leaving this sentence, Frank left the military tent. Looking at the empty tent, Li Ao suddenly felt that his life had never been so lonely.
The next day, the entire army of the Knights set out. From the sky, I saw a dense crowd of people surging up from the foot of the mountain. Crawling across the ground like countless ants, they came to the front of position A halfway up the mountain. At this time, Li Ao stepped out from the crowd, and a penetrating voice resounded from the entire mountainside: "The leader of the Sea God Squad, how dare you come out and fight me!"
In front of the position, Zero came out after the bunker fortifications. He showed a meaningful smile and said: "I sent you the same invitation a few days ago, didn't you refuse, respected Captain Leo?"
Zero's words reminded the Knights of that day, and they all felt ashamed. Li Ao didn't care, and said frankly: "I changed my mind today."
"You've changed so fast." Ling Shi smiled and said, "Well then, I accept your challenge. But since it's a duel, there must be prizes."
"If you win, we will withdraw immediately." Li Ao said bluntly.
Zero shook his head and said, "It's not enough. You legionaries can leave, and the soldiers and combat equipment must be left to me. However, I can accept the ransom from the Pope's Hall, as long as the amount satisfies me."
As soon as these words came out, the soldiers on the side of the Knights immediately cursed and cursed. Li Ao raised his hand to tell the soldiers to shut up, and said again: "Then you lost?"
"Disarm on the spot, we will immediately withdraw from the mainland and never set foot on this land again. Of course, if I lose, at least Captain Leo can still take my life, right?"
Leo nodded: "Me too."
Stretching out his hand and making a gesture, the Knights immediately retreated like a tide, leaving a gap of nearly 500 meters between them and the position for Leo and Zero to duel. Li Ao untied the captain's cloak and let it float up, flying towards the direction of the Knights like a flowing red cloud. In the knight order, a hand stretched out to grab the void, and the cloak fell down as if pulled by an invisible force field. The person who caught it was Yafidi.
Li Ao moved his body for a while, then drew his hands falsely, and black flames arose from under his feet. He honestly deployed an elemental shield for himself, an elemental force field and several defensive abilities, which can be said to have done enough defense. One pay does not seek meritorious service, but seeks the pattern of no faults. After displaying several defensive abilities, the bands of light around Leo's body were flowing, and the black flames were blowing in and out, which was really spectacular.
When Leo put himself in the turtle shell, Zero was not idle. He moved his hands and feet, and the joints all over his body were crackling. Every shock will form an invisible shock wave, and with more and more shock waves, Zero's energy and power will gradually increase, and finally jump into the ninth level. Then the bright red energy light belt floated out from his shoulder socket and elbow. With a layer of metallic luster passing over Zero, after activating the steel skin, he entered a battle state.
"Are you ready?" Zero asked.
Li Ao waved: "Let the horse come here!"
