"Ahaha! I told you, when he sees this young girl, his eyes will fall out."
"This is normal. The changes that occur to a girl after undergoing the transformation surgery are huge."
"If Old Tang molded Eva's new body into this shape, you would also drop your eyes."
"Wow! That would be so unlucky for Eva! I don't want to see that!"
……
Finkel, Caesar, and Chu Zihang watched the welcome ceremony held by the Japanese branch for their legion while chatting using the built-in voice communication of their armor.
After all, this is the first time the army has officially carried out a mission other than a simulated actual combat, so it is natural that the entire army must attack -
Although there were only four Astartes who got off the airship, it was obviously enough to deal with the "dragon embryos" and the conspiracy behind them in the Japanese branch.
And there is also weapons and firepower support from the Legion's Alchemy Technology Department - the aircraft that carries them.
"Hunter Gunship! The latest generation of aerial combat/transport dual-purpose vehicles produced by the Alchemy Technology Department of the Sword of Revelation, with blueprints and technology provided by the great Emperor. It is equipped with four twin-linked explosive guns and two rounds of honeycomb rockets to provide strong aerial firepower support. It has a super-powerful two-door vector engine powered by the Philosopher's Stone. Even if the US military stationed in Japan has F-22s in a high-altitude dogfight, they will be beaten by the Hunter Gunship!" (Note: The time was 08)
Chief Alchemist Sergeant Ronald Tang showed great enthusiasm for development when he was not playing games. He eagerly explored the technology tree that combined alchemy technology with human technology. In his words, "Damn Black King, why are you stirring up pain and betraying literature? If you could have improved alchemy technology and made progress together with humans earlier, then why would I be playing StarCraft? I would have walked out of the solar system and insulted those aliens long ago!"
The Hunter Gunship is a masterpiece of alchemical technology in addition to the Legion's power armor. Its prototype comes from the "Thunderhawk Gunship", an aerial vehicle of the Astartes Regiment of the Human Empire. However, compared to the technical drawings provided by His Majesty the Emperor, the Hunter still needs to be equipped with a back cannon and a rocket engine capable of flying in the atmosphere and space to be complete.
In addition, there is a transport-type hunter that is coming at a slower speed. It is responsible for transporting the deep-sea submarine "Giant Shark" needed for this mission. It is also produced by the Alchemy Technology Department and was built in just one and a half days (two years in the City of Miracles).
"I should really have taken my own Sleipnir..."
Principal Ange was the last one to get off the plane. Judging from his expression, it was obvious that the old guy who was used to sitting in first class and on special planes was not very adaptable to returning to the most primitive troop transport cabin.
"Principal, you are lame! Look at the members of our technical department, each of them is full of energy and vigor!" Finkel laughed.
Ange glanced at the accompanying technicians from the Sword of Revelation Alchemy Technology Department, and couldn't figure out what kind of change of mindset these lunatics from the former equipment department had to run to the Japanese branch that they had avoided before...
The answer is, of course, "It's worth it to see the strong men of the Legion fighting the dragons, even if I die!"
The Japanese branch also expressed a warm welcome to Principal Ange. Before Lu Mingfei, he was recognized as the strongest person in the Japanese branch; but he just nodded calmly. To him, the secrets and tricks hidden by the Eight Snake Families were not worth mentioning. The White King had already fallen, so how could a hybrid with only a trace of his blood in his body make any waves?
What's more, the new generation of "Dragon Slayers" who killed the White King are standing aside.
So Ange walked towards the head of the Inuyama He family with a smile on his face. The two old men were like old friends who had met after a long time. They laughed and opened their arms to hug each other tightly.
"The old guy is quite coquettish."
"Isn't he always like this?"
Finkel and Caesar, who were bored, complained in low voices, and Chu Zihang just listened silently.
Gen Chikyou put on a helmet and returned to the queue. The first conversation between the brothers after their reunion ended directly because Gen Chisei said he "wanted to be quiet".
The Rolls-Royce shuttle that the Japanese branch had originally prepared was obviously not able to accommodate Lu Mingfei and the other big guys, so they had no choice but to send a truck for the pick-up... While apologizing repeatedly, they guaranteed that the interior of the truck would be absolutely spotless.
Lu Mingfei didn't care about these. While waiting for the truck to arrive, he arranged the handover process between the "Giant Shark" transported by the Hunter transport boat and the Japanese branch. The Sword of Revelation Legion could not act openly and without restrictions at present. For example, if it weren't for the multi-faceted disguise and coordination between the Gattuso family and the Kassel Academy headquarters, the Hunter gunboat would have "invaded other countries' airspace" many times on the way to Japan.
Until the various tribes of Earth are integrated into one by the Emperor's will, they still need to keep a low profile.
……
In the large truck heading to Genji Heavy Industries, five warriors of the Sword of Revelation Legion sat on a temporarily brought-in sofa. The only source of light in the dark compartment was the eye-catching red light emitted by their helmet goggles.
"The purpose of this operation is, in addition to the dragon embryo that is hatching on the seabed, we have an additional target to clear."
"His name is Jung von Herzog."
Lu Mingfei spoke through the communication system. At the same time, the operating system in the armor projected all the relevant data files onto the helmet eyepieces of each warrior brother. Those were the data about Black Swan Port, as well as the many files he had read inside it, which were written down and restored one by one through memory.
Lu Mingfei has always been concerned about the so-called "worst timeline in Japan in the last round" mentioned by Lu Mingze, but even without watching the "replay of the last round of timeline", Lu Mingfei can now guess the enemy hidden behind the scenes of this trip.
"Oh, you and I are from the same hometown. Ha, I was just joking," Finkel laughed, "But judging from his qualifications and research records, this Dr. Herzog is quite amazing. A pure human being can actually dig out the secrets of dragons and hybrids, and even set up his own base for hybrid research without being discovered by the hybrid forces..."
"If his research results can be published and he is not killed by the hybrids and his more in-depth research data is not taken away, then his discovery will overturn the theory of evolution and become the Darwin of the new era," Caesar said, "but he seems to have a more noble ideal - 'ascending the throne and becoming a new god'... This is not as simple as changing from a human to a hybrid."
He turned his head to look at Chu Zihang, "Champion Chu, what do you think?"
"Since he is a target to be eliminated, no matter what he wants to become, my mission is just to kill him." Chu Zihang said calmly.
"In this respect, you are exactly the same as before the transformation." Caesar shrugged.
Chu Zihang's current rank in the army is "Champion of the Battle Group". This cool title means that his combat power is the strongest after Lu Mingfei, and his combat duty is to find the enemy leader/strongest to fight and behead him, which is super cool.
In comparison, Caesar Gattuso was more like a civilian manager because Lu Mingfei valued his ability in managing and operating the battle group, while Ling was more inclined to reconnaissance. Moreover, he was now a lone commander, and if he encountered a battle that required a champion to fight alone, he would have to act as the champion's guard to ensure that Chu Zihang would not be beaten up in the process of fighting alone...
"So, Captain, are you sure he is in Japan?" Finkel asked.
"Yes." Lu Mingfei nodded, then looked at Yuan Zhinv, "I'm sorry, Zhinv, during your surgery, I extracted your genes for private monitoring without your prior consent."
"That's not a problem, Captain." Genji said softly. Although his body had become a 2.5-meter-tall man, his voice still retained a trace of the gentleness of the past.
"Your previous 'split personality' symptoms in Japan caught my attention, especially during the operation I found that your brain also had traces of 'pontine splitting surgery' - but you can rest assured that the great genetic engineering transformation you received from His Majesty the Emperor has repaired this insignificant acquired defect."
Lu Mingfei continued calmly, "In addition to Herzog, the people who escaped from Black Swan Port were also three test tube hybrid embryos bred by genetic engineering: π, ω, and ξ. I compared your genetic samples afterwards and can confirm that you, young girl, are the embryo codenamed ω (Omega)."
"Since you are here and grew up here, it means that Herzog fled to Japan after Black Swan Port."
"So... my brother is π(派)...ξ(克斯)? Who could he/she be?"
Genjitsu didn't seem too shocked. After all, she had experienced shocking things before, things that had even shattered the evil half of his personality.
Moreover, the genes and organs in this body now are probably not closely related to the test tube embryo before... right?
"If I'm not mistaken, it should be Uesugi Eri. The dragon bloodline in that child is quite unstable." Lu Mingfei said, "He trained the king who controlled you. He performed that kind of 'pontine splitting surgery' on you, and at the same time used that weird wood knocking sound to control you... There is no doubt that the heretic is the hidden Herzog."
"That idiot wearing the death mask? Didn't we blow up his clone nest?" Finkel asked.
"I have a feeling that this heresy won't be destroyed so easily," Lu Mingfei's voice turned cold. "Moreover, a simple and obvious inference," he looked at Yuan Zhinv again, as if he saw his horrified face through the helmet, "three hybrid embryos, you, your brother and your sister... why did he only control you?"
"Or maybe he has already controlled your brother and sister, but he is using another identity or another body."
A name immediately appeared in Minamoto Chitose's mind: Tachibana Masamune!
The current patriarch of the Snake Eight Families, the supreme leader of the Japanese underworld... and also the man who took his brother away from the mountains many years ago!
Tachibana Masamune and the King General are the same person... This assumption is too horrifying. Is the only difference between these two people the mask?
"Of course, we still need more in-depth and definitive evidence." Lu Mingfei said calmly, "If we kill their current leader the second time we come to Japan... it might make things develop in a less peaceful direction. I don't really want too much human blood to be shed here."
He has always been concerned about the "sadness of the previous timeline" mentioned by Lu Mingze. Although he did not find out the real culprit behind the scenes by cheating by directly watching the replay of the previous timeline, Lu Mingfei still connected the information clues from all aspects and found the heretic hiding behind the scenes.
"I have a solution!" Finkel raised his hand and said, "We have installed gene detection nerves!"
He said in a vicious tone: "Let's chop off one of his hands, and then each of us will chew on one finger, then we will know everything, right?"
"This method is good, but I have a better one," Lu Mingfei said calmly, "Little girl, wait a moment and listen to my instructions. Use your 'Dream Tapir' directly on that Tachibana Masamune and dig out everything hidden in his brain."
