Chapter 16 Heading to Adilai



I sat in the chair, looking at General Connie. Connie kept smiling and said, "What's wrong? Commander Grey Crow, are you dissatisfied with this mission? You are usually very active in completing missions."

I smirked and said, "Oh, really? It's your mission to have my team do odd jobs every day."

Connie: "It's just cleaning up the square after the carnival. How hard can it be?"

My expression grew uglier. "Do you believe me? I'll throw you into the garbage disposal plant and see what happens. Then you'll know what those things are that can sustain you for the rest of your life."

Connie said calmly, "Then wouldn't it be a good mission to investigate the Adilai Alliance?"

I laughed and said, "Yeah, yeah, yeah. We're just a small team, just four of us. And you're asking us to investigate people we don't have a good relationship with to begin with. They might just shoot us when they see us. Why are the Sky Garden executives so eager to erect a hero monument for us?"

Connie laughed with me and said, "Don't worry, we've already negotiated. It was just a simple exchange. We still have business ties. I don't think they would be enemies of the Sky Garden."

Me: "Hahaha, I should, cough cough, oh, forget it, I won't laugh anymore, I'm almost dying of laughter, okay, okay, I'll go."

Connie: "You need to go to the engineering department now. Karenina should go with you."

I looked embarrassed. “You mean the crazy guy who played with the flash last time.”

Connie: "That's right, but I wish you good luck on your mission. Karenina is a very valuable teammate." I walked out of the meeting room dissatisfied.

Liv, Lucia, and Ri were waiting outside the conference room. Liv asked, "Commander, what is the mission this time?"

Lucia: "You're not going to ask us to sort out the unmanageable garbage again, are you?"

Li: "If you do something like this again, I feel like our team will lose face."

I quickly said, "This is asking us to go underground and investigate the Adila Business Alliance. We have to go now. Let's go to the Engineering Department to find Karenina."

So I hurried to the engineering department. Liv followed behind me, saying, "Is that the business alliance formed by those golden age capitalists? I used to play with their toys when I was a kid."

Hearing Liv say this, I seemed to have some impression of it when I was a kid: "Yes, the computers in the internet cafe in Kowloon all had their brand, but I had never heard of this business alliance. At that time, I thought it was a brand of some street vendor in Kowloon."

Li: "I heard that their trains can resist the invasion of the Pamishi virus. I'm curious about what technology they use?"

Lucia said innocently, "That means they can also buy Ah Dai Wa there."

"Huh?" The three of us turned to look at Lucia. Suddenly, I remembered that the Ah-Dai Wa Lucia used in the last battle seemed to be broken. I quickly said, "If it's available, I'll definitely buy it."

Lucia said happily, "Thank you, Commander."

Soon, we arrived at the engineering department. A white-haired girl with twintails was sitting on a box filled with parts, fiddling with her hair. When she saw us, she jumped down from the box, walked quickly to me, stared at me, and then pinched my limbs.

I was a little confused, and then suddenly he punched me. I didn't even have my protective suit on, so I fell to my knees. After a while, he turned to look at Lucia and sneered, "Lucia, your commander is too weak. Can't withstand the wind? Can't he handle it?"

Lucia said coldly, "I have a commander, do you? It's too pathetic that you spend all day fiddling with those broken machines."

Hey, Lucia, aren't your words too hurtful?

After hearing this, Karenina's mood instantly dropped and she put her coat and hat on her head. Liv helped me up and quickly came to my rescue: "So it's Lucia's friend! Nice to meet you."

Lucia said mercilessly: "Not a friend."

Hey, Lucia, give her some face! I quickly added: "Haha, so that's how it is. Let's hurry up and carry out the mission. It's getting late."

Karenina then took us aboard the spaceship, took off her hat, and confidently declared, "This is the spaceship I personally modified. It only takes two hours to get from the Hanging Gardens to our destination. Not only is it incredibly fast, it can also perform many difficult maneuvers." Isn't Lucia amazing?

Lucia didn't answer. If I had known that this child had such a good attitude, I wouldn't have done anything unnecessary.

Karenina jumped into the driving seat and said, "Please fasten your seat belts, the boat is about to depart."

I sat on the fixed chair, felt around and asked, "That Karenina, there doesn't seem to be anything on the chair..."

Before I could finish my words, the spaceship rushed out at an extremely fast speed, and before I could grab the chair, I was already flying backwards.

Li reacted, hugged me, and shouted at Karenina: "Karenina, your spaceship should not have a certificate!"

Karenina fiddled with the spaceship and asked in confusion, "Why? I need a license for the spaceship I built? I just forgot to install the seatbelt. Besides, if you don't have this ability, your commander's physical fitness is not good enough."

I was even more confused. "Your speed is three times faster than the Sky Garden's combat spacecraft. Besides, when you were human, could you have endured it?"

Karenina persisted, "No means no, why explain so much?" Hearing this, I couldn't help but draw my gun and shoot her.

Lucia: "It's okay, Commander, she just likes to compare. Just ignore her."

Liv: "Yes, Commander, I'm still very good because of you."

Liv, don't say that. I already feel inferior. After he put me down, he supported me after I stood up.

The spacecraft passed through the Pamish radiation layer, penetrated the clouds, and then slowed down. Not long after, I saw a huge train traveling through the yellow sand.

This thing was at least four times larger than the underground train in Kowloon. Karenina shouted, "I see the landing platform sign. Get ready to land."

There was a train car below with the logo of the Sky Garden on it. The spacecraft gradually approached the train and its speed slowly decreased. The car opened from the middle to reveal the apron, and then it stopped steadily on the landing platform. I have to say that Karenina's skills were really good.

I opened the hatch and jumped off the spaceship. Lucia and the others followed suit. No one greeted us. Did they not welcome us? It was a bit strange. I saw that the door of the other carriage was closed, so I pushed it open and went in.

Permanent train

The Adilai Alliance is based on the special strength of the train. They combined Universal Heavy Industry and filter tower technology with the train and transformed it into an Adilai-specific on-board filtration system, which uses a heavy nuclear fusion reactor as the driving energy. As long as the train can continue to operate, the filtration device can isolate the Pamish virus, so the humans on the train can survive. The train runs on the Aps track that runs through the entire Eurasian continent.
