Chapter 624 Flesh and Blood
"Hey! White, don't bother me!"
"You are interfering with me! Don't try to compete with me for control as a fifth-level brat!"
"Huh?! What are you talking about, a former mechanic! A mecha must be controlled by a mecha master!"
The mecha named Gemini destroyed the falling warship as soon as it appeared, which seemed extremely cool to outsiders.
But in reality...
The two people inside the mecha were already arguing fiercely.
Sutina and Dia do not get along well with each other. Sutina was once a princess of a small country. Although she later led the people of the country to become interstellar pirates, she had at least received aristocratic etiquette training.
After becoming the queen, she pays more attention to her own dignity, does not get angry easily, and always maintains her elegance as the "White Queen".
She is fundamentally different from ordinary pirates.
In other words, she is more civilized.
When Daya was adopted by Violet, Violet was already a pirate. Daya had lived among pirates since she was a child, eating, drinking, gambling, cheating and deceiving others. Except for "whoring", Daya did everything else.
He has cheated his companions and swindled others, and even "kidnapped" several people who had nothing to do with him to form a team. It can be said that he is more gangster than the average thug.
The fact that the two of them were combined together and failed to separate from each other immediately, allowing the twin mechas to split into two parts, was already a manifestation of patience.
Don't even think about expecting them to get along peacefully.
For example, now, Sutina dislikes Daiya for not being strong enough and should not be the leader of the Gemini mecha, while Daiya thinks that a "former mechanic" has no right to speak here, and the mecha should be controlled by the mecha master! Gemini: "..."
Since the twin mechas are actually two mechas, the mecha consciousness is naturally divided into two.
The black mecha controlled by Sutina is named [Extreme Black], which has male consciousness.
The white mecha controlled by Diya is called [Incandescent White], which represents female consciousness.
The two are like twin siblings, so they are called Gemini.
Listening to the quarrel between Daya and Sutina, the twin consciousnesses were speechless.
The inheritors of the Gemini Mechas of all generations are twins. Although they are different from each other, the differences are more in their power attributes rather than in their appearance and personality.
As a result, the two inheritors of this generation look like enemies, and no one knows why they are so compatible with the twin mechas.
(Okay, stop arguing. I feel like a companion is coming.) Finally, it was Chibai in the twin mechas who spoke up to persuade them. Her voice was like sunshine, temporarily dispelling the conflict between the two and turning their attention elsewhere.
Sutina snorted coldly and remained silent.
She didn't really want to argue with Daya, but the girl was too noisy and she couldn't help but quarrel with her.
Daiya's attention was quickly diverted, and she asked with sparkling eyes: "Companions?! Are they the imperial reinforcements?"
(No, this feeling... is Qingxue.) An extremely dark voice came.
The mecha looked into the distance.
A human-sized mecha with a blue background and white stripes was seen flying from below. The style of the mecha looked similar to that of an ordinary mecha, but when it got closer, both Diya and Sutina could tell its identity.
The other party is also the inheritor of the ancient empire's mecha.
Seeing this, Sutina wanted to step forward and say hello, but at this moment, an attack suddenly fell from the sky, heading towards Sutina and Dia!
He is a seventh-level mecha master of the Renaissance Society!
When she saw the powerful men from the empire appearing here, she naturally chose the twin mechas as her opponent.
"Tsk, what trouble." Sutina frowned.
Daiya became excited instead: "How dare you challenge us? You are so brave! Twins! Come with me to kill her!!"
"Idiot, she will naturally be dealt with by others. What we need to do now is to meet the inheritor of another ancient mecha."
Sutina sneered.
Daiya said in return: "You are the idiot! If you want to meet, it's not too late to wait until the battle is over. Now you should kill all the enemies first!"
“…”
As expected of a girl raised by Violet, her thought process of 'fighting is fun' is exactly the same as his.
Sutina sneered in her heart and was about to say something to Diya, but Jihei stopped her and said: (It doesn’t matter, I have already contacted Qingxue, you let Diya fight that mecha master, and you go and talk to Qingxue’s successor.) Since Jihei had said so, Sutina didn’t say anything else.
Soon, a silly-sounding girl's voice rang out in her heart:
"Hello? My name is Zhao Dongxue. Do you know a boy named Richie?"
“…”
The other party just said one sentence, and for some reason, Sutina suddenly lost the desire to continue the conversation with him.
Even though she had never met the girl named Zhao Dongxue in person, Sutina could hear it from her tone.
This is a love rival!! Zhao Dongxue also likes Richie!! Of course, Sutina knows very well how charming Richie is, and it is normal for girls to like him.
Not to mention Zhao Dongxue, just recently in the empire, she has met many aristocratic girls who have become fascinated by Richie because of his appearance.
However, these girls have no competitiveness in Sutina's eyes. To put it bluntly, even if they are given a chance, they will never be noticed by Richie.
But... this girl named Zhao Dongxue is different.
Because she is also one of the inheritors of the ancient empire's mecha.
This means that Zhao Dongxue will likely have many opportunities to meet Richie in the future, and although it was just one sentence, Sutina could tell that Zhao Dongxue and Richie knew each other!
At least they are acquaintances who can talk to each other!
In just a moment, Su Tina realized that Zhao Dongxue posed a threat to her and lost the mood to talk to her.
However, since the other party was also the inheritor of the ancient mecha, Sutina couldn't really ignore him. She could only respond simply:
"Of course I know His Highness Richie. What is your relationship with His Highness Richie?"
"I'm Richie's friend..."
Just as Zhao Dongxue finished saying this, suddenly, a piercing scream came from below, attracting the attention of the two.
A normal scream should not have made the two people turn their heads, but the abnormal thing about this scream was that it was not made by one person.
But suddenly, people in different places, different positions, and different factions sent it out at the same time!
Following the source of the screams, the first thing that caught their eyes was the "meat balls" on the ground that were originally not there.
Judging from the appearance of those meat balls, one could vaguely see the human form, but these 'human' appearances were quickly filled with meat balls, turning into monsters whose original appearances could not be recognized by anyone.
The flesh ball was still growing, and blood bubbles appeared one after another on its body. Those blood bubbles exploded in the air, landed on the people around them, and spread rapidly, turning a person into a flesh ball-like monster in the blink of an eye!
The screams came from those who had not yet turned into monsters!
“What…what is this?!”
Zhao Dongxue's surprised voice sounded in Sutina's ears.
Sutina looked at him solemnly without answering.
Because she didn't know what it was.
Boom boom
As the two were marveling at the incident, something new happened. The floating city shook, and a deafening sound was heard amid the screams.
Then, the protective barrier that covered the entire floating city and isolated the inside and outside slowly fell downwards.
The floating city's defenses have been opened! "Oh no... We can't open it at this time--!"
Seeing that the meat balls below were extremely contagious, Sutina reacted immediately.
She ignored Deya who was fighting with the local mecha master, instantly seized control of the twins, and quickly moved away from the battlefield, flying towards the core of the floating city below!
Originally, opening the defenses was a good thing, as it meant that support from outside could come in at any time, and the Queen's power would increase. If the Second Prince's faction did not have a backup plan, they would surely be defeated in the face of the constant flow of support.
However, now that the strange "infectious disease" has appeared, opening the shield will cause the flesh and blood to fly out!
According to the growth rate of these flesh and blood, even if they fall into the outside world a little, it may turn into a life-and-death crisis for the entire planet!
It was because Sutina thought of this that she wanted to go down quickly to stop the man from opening the floating city to protect him.
But she was still a little slow.
Or maybe it all happened too fast, and even if she reacted, it was too late.
The Empire’s reinforcements are coming!
…
"Finally..."
Use magic to decompose the outer core, use analysis to analyze the material composition of the core, and through the connections between the materials, forcibly use alchemy to intervene and change the internal operating logic.
After doing all this, Li Qi finally controlled the core of the floating city. After completely opening the defenses, he let out a long sigh.
No matter what the second prince's back-up plan is, their power is definitely not as strong as that of the empire.
The Queen has strong political skills, and she has built the military into an ironclad force, with almost all of them centered around her.
Faced with the empire's continuous offensive, the second prince will definitely not be able to hold on for long.
Li Qi originally thought so.
Until an eighth-rank warrior suddenly appeared in front of him:
"Your Highness Richie?! Why is it you?!"
"You are...Captain Rose?"
The eighth-level mecha master who suddenly appeared, the mecha he was driving looked slightly familiar to Li Qi.
After thinking about it carefully, I figured out the other person's identity.
When Li Qi escaped from the border, it was this Corps Commander Rose who was responsible for intercepting him.
Li Qi didn't expect to see her here again.
But...isn't she the commander of the border garrison? Why is she here?
Li Qi was confused, but Rose didn't think too much about it. After she saluted Li Qi, she looked up and said, "Did Your Highness open the protection?"
"Yes, so that reinforcements from outside can come in."
Li Qi responded calmly.
The defense of the floating city is very strong. If you want to break it, you need an annihilation cannon that can shatter a planet. However, this will easily hurt the nobles inside by mistake. Therefore, the garrison outside dare not take action directly and can only wait outside.
Now that the protection has been removed, they can come in to provide support.
This should have been a good thing, but Rose immediately said, "Then please turn off the protection, Your Highness!"
"?" Li Qi was puzzled and frowned and asked, "Why?"
"It's more intuitive to see than to talk."
Rose said this, raising her hand to show Li Qi the scene on the floating island at the moment.
When Li Qi saw the meatball spreading above the floating island, he instantly understood the reason.
He did not hesitate any longer, connected his consciousness to the core, and activated the energy protection on the floating island again!
The transparent shield rises again (End of this chapter)
