Chapter 217: Conflict
Anno noticed that it was getting late. The match was at eight o'clock the next morning, and Luo Jin's team was still out there doing test flights. She gave the aircraft to her so that she could take her second sister and Caesar back to rest for a while.
Although they don't need much rest each day, even the strongest body needs sufficient rest.
She parked the aircraft at the location of Logan's team, and just as she parked it, Logan flew back.
Logan noticed the aircraft even before he landed.
Not only her, but her teammates also noticed.
The flame pattern was really eye-catching, and it was very similar to the style of the aircraft she usually used in competitions.
After parking the aircraft, Locke and his teammates curiously went forward to examine the seemingly new aircraft.
"Captain, I feel like the structure of this aircraft is similar to your previous one."
The teammates looked puzzled.
The aircraft used in the competition are somewhat different from those used for daily travel. Apart from their flight speed, their size and appearance are quite different.
The aircraft used in flight competitions are usually modified by the participants themselves, and each aircraft is different.
Apart from the paint scheme being similar to Lockheed Martin's previous aircraft, the entire structure of the vehicle in front of them was also very similar to the one that had been scrapped before.
Lokin turned his gaze to the people standing beside him.
“I remember you,” Locke said, glancing at Anno and Karina.
In the afternoon, she saw the two girls at the repair shop buy one of her scrapped aircraft, saying they wanted to modify it themselves.
Thinking of this, she glanced at the "brand new" aircraft again and asked in surprise, "You modified this?"
Anno smiled and said, "Yes, my older brothers and sisters modified it. Do you like it?"
Upon hearing this, Luo Jin looked around the aircraft with a surprised expression, touching and tapping it here and there.
"It's amazing, it's like a completely new one."
After looking at it, Luo Jin said to them, "I see that the structure of the aircraft has not changed, except that you removed two of the accelerators at the back?"
Anno: "It wasn't dismantled, it was just moved to a different position, so it still complies with the rules of the game."
Anno displayed the three-dimensional structural diagram of the aircraft on the optical computer, allowing Lockin to see all the structural components inside and outside the aircraft.
Locke's teammates also curiously gathered around.
After reading it, they were all so shocked that their jaws almost dropped.
"Wait, the arrangement of these parts and the location of the accelerator are just like those on a fighter jet."
"There's another difference. Fighter jets have a much larger capacity than aircraft. They just changed the wiring a bit, but that's incredibly audacious. Can they even control it when it's flying? The brakes would be slammed on when it's going around a curve!"
Anno calmly replied, "That's why we added two more sets of stabilizers."
The members of the Flame Team didn't quite understand the modification; no one had ever modified it like this before.
Anno reassured them, "Don't worry, we made the changes strictly according to the competition rules, and there won't be any violations."
Hearing her words, Lokin and the others' expressions turned strange. "You want to participate in the competition?"
Anno: "It wasn't us."
Lokin was itching to try out the aircraft. Although it was the first time she had seen one modified like this, she was a frequent competitor and understood some of the basic principles. She knew the aircraft must be very fast and she really wanted to give it a try.
Anno noticed the eager look on her face and said, "You can try driving it."
"Really?" Locke asked in surprise.
Anno nodded with a faint smile.
Lokin wasn't one to mince words. Seeing that Anno agreed, he immediately took control of the aircraft and sat in the pilot's seat.
After Luo Jin flew away, Tang Ting, who had been silently watching them, walked up to An Nuo and asked uncertainly, "Classmate, are you giving this aircraft away as a gift?"
Anno turned to look at him. "Yes."
Tang Ting knew she shouldn't ask too many questions, since they had only met once, but she had heard the two sisters say that it was a gift for their mother.
Looking at it now, it doesn't look like it was meant to be given to my mother at all.
The way this girl looked at Lokin didn't seem like idol worship; it was more like they'd known each other for a long time.
Lokin didn't act like he knew her; he had a feeling he couldn't quite put his finger on.
It was as if he knew her and her sister.
Ten minutes later, Locke flew the aircraft back.
Before she even stepped off the aircraft, everyone could hear her excited voice.
"Genius! The stability is incredible!"
Logan jumped off the aircraft, his face beaming with excitement, and kept praising its performance to Anno.
Anuo saw that her eyes were shining and couldn't help but smile.
She asked her again, "Do you like it?"
Without a second thought, Luo Jin replied, "I love it! This flying vehicle is much more fun than the ones I usually drive!"
Anno: "Now it's yours."
Lokin: "Oh... um? Huh?"
Lokin was stunned for a moment, and it took her a few seconds to react, with an expression that said, "Did I hear that right?"
Tang Ting also had an expression that said, "I knew I was right."
He was even more puzzled than Locke. When he was sitting with the two girls earlier, they kept mentioning their mothers and saying they would modify a flying machine to give to their mothers. How come they are giving it to Locke now?
Surely Lokin isn't their mother?
As soon as he thought about it, he couldn't help but shudder.
What are you thinking! Maybe the next aircraft will be for Mom.
Tang Ting quickly shook these chaotic thoughts out of her head.
Anno looked at Karina, "Second sister."
Karina understood, stepped forward, retrieved the control account for the aircraft from the quantum computer, cleared the password, and transferred it to Locke's quantum computer.
When Lokin saw the account interface flashing on his personal computer, his eyes were filled with surprise and confusion.
Why did you give me this aircraft?
Although she really liked the aircraft, it was too valuable, and she could not accept the gift since she had only met the two girls in front of her once.
Anno said, "My brothers and sisters and I are all vehicle designers, repairmen and mecha pilots. You happen to be my idol. I really like your team. Let's use this aircraft modification as practice."
After hearing this, Lokin still hesitated and said, "This is too valuable."
She wanted to offer to buy it with money, but this was a gesture of goodwill from the girl as a fan, and it wouldn't be appropriate to do so.
Karina knew Lokin's personality. If it were just some small fan gifts like flowers and dolls, it would be fine. But a competition aircraft, plus various parts replacements and modifications, would cost anywhere from tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands or even millions of star coins. It was too expensive for her to afford.
Karina said to Locke, "This isn't a free gift. This aircraft is our new design concept. We're giving it to you for a test drive so we can see how it performs on the field. If you win the race, this aircraft is yours."
Luo Jin and his teammates exchanged glances. The gap between them and the Flying Bird team was in their aircraft. Aircraft competitions were not only about skills, but also about various improvements to the aircraft.
Humans compete, and so do aircraft.
"good."
Logan nodded in agreement. In the past, many aircraft manufacturers would come to the team to test drive and promote their aircraft and various components.
Since she said that, she must win the game!
Logan returned to the aircraft and continued her test flight training with her teammates; she needed to get used to the new aircraft.
However, the structure is not much different from her previous aircraft; only the performance has changed.
After the aircraft was sent out, Anno yawned and leaned against Karina. "Second sister, let's go back to sleep."
She gets very sleepy after drinking alcohol, and her intermittent sleep makes it impossible for her to get a good night's rest.
Karina put her arm around her. "Okay, let's go back to sleep."
Caesar opened a portal, and everyone returned to the island they had been on before.
Anuo went back, washed up, and lay down. She didn't even have time to dry her hair before falling asleep almost immediately.
Karina took the hairdryer and dried her hair before getting up to wash up.
On the shore outside the island, a figure emerged from the sea, gazed at the island for a while, and then sank back into the water. A silver fish tail emerged from the water as he submerged.
At the bottom of the water, there is a golden glow, and many golden jellyfish are lingering there.
hostel.
Just two minutes after Karina entered the bathroom, a portal appeared in the room.
Karina turned on the shower and felt the familiar energy of the portal; she frowned slightly.
Little Seven is already asleep, why is Caesar still coming over to cling to her at this time?
Although she didn't particularly like any of Xiaoqi's Zerg followers, she only targeted Caesar because he was the most annoying.
She had met Caesar when Xiaoqi was still living at their house. He also liked to open his spatial portal late at night to stick to her.
She thought for a moment, then turned off the shower and put on a bathrobe.
At that moment, Caesar was lying in his room when the portal appeared in Anno's room, and he suddenly opened his eyes.
As Karina emerged from the bathroom, Caesar stepped out of the portal.
Their eyes met, and then they both looked toward the bedside, where a man was half-squatting beside Anuo's bed, reaching out to hug her.
This man has a face similar to Caesar's.
Karina was stunned for only a moment before she quickly regained her senses. Her expression instantly turned sharp, and lightning gathered in her hand.
Caesar coldly addressed the man: "Go back! We don't need you here!"
The man looked at Caesar, a hint of doubt flashing in his eyes, before his gaze darkened. With a swift movement of his long arm, he pulled Anno into his embrace.
Caesar gripped his longsword tightly and took a step forward. "I'll say it again, release Your Highness, you are no longer needed here!"
Karina watched as the man held Anno, and then withdrew her powers.
If you attack him with lightning, it will affect Xiao Qi.
She stared at Caesar with a cold expression. "What's going on? Who is he?"
No sooner had she finished speaking than her door was kicked open, and Tanville and the other three entered the room.
Upon seeing Anno being held in the arms of a man who resembled Caesar, they knew who he was in less than a second.
They all looked at Caesar expressionlessly.
Tanville: "You've done a fine job."
Caesar was also in a terrible predicament. He tried to invade the man's consciousness, but it was no use, because the mermaid's consciousness was now his own.
He is Caesar of this time and space.
In countless parallel universes, even the most similar lives and destinies will have many subtle differences.
For example, the clone in front of him does have a mermaid clone in his spacetime, but it is different from the one in front of him. Moreover, because it was separated from the group, it was captured by the North River Galaxy a long time ago to be used for genetic experiments.
They quickly communicated within their consciousness network. Tanville wanted to use his mental abilities to invade the mermaid's mind, but this mermaid clone possessed the special allure of mermaids, and the consciousness within this body belonged to Caesar.
During the three hundred years of searching for Anno, Caesar's consciousness became incredibly powerful and insane. His clones on various planets may have varied in strength, but their consciousness was undoubtedly the strongest.
With the added power of this mermaid clone, Tanwell was no match for him.
Poponia shielded the room with a defensive shield to prevent him from escaping with Anno.
Several of the servants revealed their sharp claws, ready to deal with Caesar, this merman clone, at any moment.
But whether they kill the mermaid or not is of little significance; he has found His Highness, and so has Caesar of this timeline.
As soon as his consciousness returns to Caesar's body, Caesar will come looking for him immediately.
If Caesar comes, then the entire Zerg will come.
The merman Caesar glanced indifferently at the group of people in front of him, who were ready to draw their swords at him, then looked down at the treasure in his arms, his hand slowly tightening.
At this moment, Anno was still fast asleep in her dream after he used his charm ability on her.
Just as Caesar and the others were about to negotiate with him again, a black hole suddenly appeared beneath him, and he sank into it with Anno in his arms, disappearing from their sight in an instant.
Karina's pupils contracted. This clone also had spatial abilities? She had thought it was Caesar's spatial gate energy fluctuation just now!
By the time she wanted to block it, it was too late.
"Your Highness!"
Seeing the person just disappear like that, the family members were almost driven mad.
Without a second thought, Bazel transformed into his beast form and leaped off the balcony, following the faint energy he sensed.
Tanvel grabbed Caesar, who was about to open a portal, and asked in a deep voice, "Isn't this mermaid's power a bit too strong?"
They weren't unaware of Caesar's clones; clones don't inherit his original abilities.
Tanvel was the calmest of them all, knowing that Anno would be fine. The biggest problem now was Caesar and the Zerg in this timeline. If a conflict broke out between them, it would be difficult for them to return to their own timeline.
