"X, don't be impulsive, come back! Protect the city!!"

At the same time, after the Thirteenth City, the Seventh Sister and the other two who were in charge of the command also looked solemn. The bald man standing next to the Seventh Sister gave the order directly without hesitation. The code name of this bald man is Eight, so we call him Eight Man... Well, it doesn't matter.

"Really? You don't obey orders!"

Looking at the Goldfinch rushing towards the giant dragon on the screen, the eighth man slammed the table angrily, while the seventh sister frowned.

"But we don't have any good solution, right? Now we can only see if he can create a miracle."

The seventh sister also looked solemn. This X was indeed very strong, but the biggest difference between him and the other children was that he seemed to have his own ideas and almost didn't listen to others. Even if it was their orders, he could pretend not to hear them. But as the seventh sister said, even if the Golden Sparrow came back, they didn't know how to deal with such a huge dragon.

Why not let the other party give it a try? Maybe a miracle will happen?

"But what can he do alone?"

The eight men frowned and looked at the screen in front of him. The giant dragon was really too big. Even the Franks mecha was about the size of a mouse in front of the giant dragon. Although Fang Zheng's mecha used a big sword, how could he fight against such a huge monster?

While he was thinking, the Goldfinch in light mode had already arrived in front of the giant. The size difference between the two sides was so huge that it seemed that the giant could crush the Goldfinch into a meat paste just by raising his foot!

In fact, it did raise one foot and stepped on the Goldfinch.

At this moment, under the gaze of the two people, a magical scene happened.

I saw the Golden Sparrow holding the sword tightly in his hand, and at the same time, a ray of light suddenly appeared on the blade of the sword. Facing the giant dragon in front of him, the Golden Sparrow did not retreat, but instead raised the sword in his hand high, and swung it forward at the same time as the opponent's foot landed!

A flash of sword light suddenly burst out, splitting the darkness like lightning. The sword energy condensed on the big sword roared and burst out, directly hitting the giant dragon's foot. The giant dragon, who had lost his balance, fell backwards with a whine.

But Fang Zheng's offensive obviously did not end there.

After a sword strike, Goldfinch leaped up and landed on the legs of the giant dragon, then lowered its body and flew forward!

The lightly equipped Goldfinch was naturally incomparable in terms of speed, and the giant dragon was huge. Although it fell down slowly because it lost its balance, its speed was still not as fast as the Goldfinch. Before the giant dragon fell, the Goldfinch ran along its legs all the way to the top of the highest head, and then stepped on the giant dragon's head and jumped up! Flying high into the sky! !

"boom!!!"

At this moment, the giant named Long also fell heavily on the ground, while Goldfinch was already in mid-air, holding the big sword tightly and swung it backhand!

Ascend the dragon and slash!

At this moment, the sword in his hand instantly turned into a forty-meter-long sharp blade and slashed down!

“——!!!”

As the giant dragon was split into two, its body instantly turned into blue blood and splattered everywhere.

And this battle ended here.

After the battle, the 26th city and the 13th city were separated again, but for many people, this was not an end, but a beginning.

"...You said this is the battle video of the Goldfinch?"

Dr. Franks frowned and watched the video in front of him over and over again, then he looked at the eight men on the other side.

"Who else knows about this?"

"We were the only ones present at the scene. The members of Team 13 and Team 26 were very far away and had no idea what was going on..."

At this point, the eighth man finally couldn't help but ask.

"Dr. Franks, does this... experimental mecha have this ability?"

“…”

Dr. Franks said nothing as he watched the video in front of him.

Although these are indeed experimental mechas, their weapons are similar to those of ordinary Franks mechas. They are special weapons made of magma fuel. These weapons can break through the defenses of the dragons and attack their core to destroy them.

But! They don’t have this ability!!

Watching the sharp blade in Goldfinch's hand suddenly burst out into a light blade dozens of meters long, easily cutting the body of the giant dragon, Dr. Franks couldn't figure out what was going on.

In a word, this is unscientific!!

The Franks mecha has no such function at all!

But...Dr. Franks couldn't say for sure. Was it that there wasn't any, or that he just didn't know?

After all, although everyone thinks that he is the inventor of the Franks mecha, in fact only Dr. Franks himself knows that those mechas were actually the result of his re-modification using the wreckage of dragons dug out from the ground!

That's right, the Franks mecha was not made by Dr. Franks at all. It was made by a dragon man a long time ago! The dragon man at that time used this mecha in the form of a man and a woman, which is why the Franks mecha can be controlled in this weird and strange way in Fang Zheng's opinion.

Although the dragon did not actually show similar power, but... maybe this mecha really has this ability?

Or was there something special about that boy? After all, being able to ignore the pistil and match with anyone at will was unscientific in itself, and it was quite similar to 02's "curse".

"…Perhaps this experimental mecha does have some differences."

Facing the eight men's gaze, Dr. Franks thought for a moment and then gave an answer.

"Anyway, this time when they come back, bring X to see me. I want to have a good talk with him."

"Yes, Doctor."

Hearing Dr. Franks' order, Yato nodded, but he soon frowned.

"But why should we give the Thirteenth Squad a holiday..."

"Hehe, they are just kids, it's okay to play once in a while."

Dr. Franks reached out and stroked his beard, then smiled and looked at the eight men.

"You can go now."

"Yes, Doctor."

After listening to Dr. Franks' words, the eighth man turned around and left without hesitation. After the eighth man left, Dr. Franks turned his eyes to Fang Zheng's personal information on the screen in front of him again. This time, his face became cold and gloomy!

Fang Zheng had made so many big moves in a row, so naturally Dr. Franks couldn't help but notice him. At first, Dr. Franks thought he was just a gifted messenger. After all, such people have appeared before. When he was a child, he was unknown in the education stage, but suddenly became a messenger.

But when Dr. Franks investigated Fang Zheng's information, he found something unusual.

On the surface, all the data of the driver codenamed X were normal, but Dr. Franks soon discovered that there was a problem with his records.

Records show that X was born in a "greenhouse" and then worked as a courier in the 24th city. However, the 24th city was attacked and destroyed by a dragon, and he was the only survivor of the entire team. After that, X was sent to Cosmos and then transferred to the 13th city.

There is nothing wrong with the record itself.

The problem is that every time X's transfer order was recorded, it was issued in the name of Dr. Franks!

This is quite problematic, okay!

Dr. Franks may be old, but he doesn't have Alzheimer's disease yet! If there is such a driver, how could he have no memory of him and put him in the 13th team? !

So the question is, where did this young man come from?

In fact, Dr. Franks had a very frightening thought in his heart, that is... this driver codenamed X is very likely to be... a dragon man!!

That's right, in this world, only a few people know the history of the past, and Dr. Franks is one of them.

Long, long ago, the people who ruled the world were not humans, but a race called dragon people. They had great power, but later, they fought against a mysterious and powerful force and defeated it, but they also suffered heavy losses and had to retreat deep underground.

It was only after that that humans appeared and became the rulers of the earth.

Underground, the dragons met their end. Some of them transformed themselves into the original energy source, which was the "magma energy" that humans later found to make humans immortal, while others merged their souls with the mechas they drove, becoming more powerful by devouring the remains and energy of their companions, and finally, the dragon monsters that attacked the mobile city appeared.

After humans discovered this clean energy source that never ages, they began to exploit the earth recklessly. As a result, the magma energy flowing underground gradually dried up, and most of the surface began to dry up and become desertified. At this time, dragons emerged from underground and began to attack humans.

Dr. Franks knew all this, of course not because he had lived long, but because he had personally met the ruler of the dragons - the Dragon Princess!

And it was from her that Dr. Franks learned all the secrets of the world.

The princess named Dragon killed all the people who came with Dr. Franks and only allowed him to go back alive, in order to warn humans not to continue using this energy. For this, she also bit off one of Dr. Franks' arms.

But Dr. Franks was not discouraged. On the contrary, when the Dragon Princess was biting his arm, he took the opportunity to take the Dragon Princess's hair, extracted the DNA from it, and created a clone of the Dragon Princess.

That's 02!

Why is 02 different from other pilots? Why can she unleash the enormous power of the Franx mecha? Why does 02 absorb the energy and life of her partner pilots? Why does 02 have horns and fangs? The reason is that she is not human, but a clone called Dragon Princess!

So Dr. Franks' first reaction at the beginning was, could this boy code-named X also be a clone of Dragon Man like 02?

After all, he knew that when he first went to meet Princess Dragon, it was the Seven Sages of APE who told him to bring back Princess Dragon's DNA at all costs. It was also they who initiated the cloning program, and eventually 02 was born.

But soon, Dr. Franks felt something was wrong. If it was the Seven Sages, why didn't they issue orders as APE, but used their own identities? You know, although Dr. Franks worked for APE, the two sides' ideas were not compatible, and he didn't know what the Seven Sages wanted to do. If the Seven Sages created such a clone, then there was no need to go through him in such a roundabout way.

With APE's power, they can do whatever they want. Can I stop them?

If it wasn't done by the Seven Sages, he wouldn't have any memory of it. Plus, the boy had an extraordinary ability to synchronize with the Franks mecha and peculiar combat skills. Dr. Franks suspected that - this boy was most likely a dragon man!

But if he is called Dragon Man, he has no horns. Moreover, how did he infiltrate the APE organization?

Dr. Franks has always been puzzled by this.

But now, he felt that he should have a formal talk with the other party.
