Chapter 395 Representatives waiting for orders A
violent explosion suddenly burst out like a flash of light, and the air wave carrying dust and rain spread, instantly submerging pedestrians and walls on the street, and then the mud and water slid down, and countless people screamed and fled in fear.
Heshia was still standing in the rain at this moment, but the ground in front of her was exceptionally clean, forming a clear semicircle with the muddy and water-flooded world around her.
Accompanied by various cracking and rumbling sounds, the entire building slowly fell down, and then hit the ground heavily, raising a large amount of dust and air waves. The metal sign of Kosides on the roof also fell heavily to the ground, and was deformed and bounced up, then rolled a few times and fell into the rain.
The heavy rain was still washing the ground. After the building collapsed, not all the members inside died, or most of them survived.
This building is the core building carefully constructed by 'Cosides'. It is very strong. Even if it collapses, the internal structure will not be damaged too much. In other words, as long as you can withstand the earth-shaking impact when it collapses, you can survive without worrying about being buried underground by the building.
The battle is still going on. After losing the cover of the floors, the collapsed building has become a ground position. The soldiers of 'Vulcan Heavy Industry' holding heavy weapons stand up. They are like bunkers and walls on the battlefield. They use dense firepower to form a blockade network and defeat the members of the office who try to approach.
Even if it falls, there are still dozens of meters high in the ruins of the building. Figures jump. The members of the 'Blood Crossbow Arrow' office eject the special mechanical crossbows on the back of their hands when they jump up. These crossbows flash with a black and purple luster. After being shot out, they quickly pass through the rain curtain like meteors and penetrate directly into the bodies of those heavily armored soldiers, as if the heavy armor is made of tofu.
In the Four-Leaf Crystal Star Region, the Blood Crossbow is a well-known high-level firm. Their specially made enchanted crossbow can easily penetrate many shields and armors, and is highly toxic. Anyone shot will lose consciousness within seconds. As for whether they will die, it depends on the order issued by the firm's commander when they go out on this mission.
After dealing with the outer members of the Vulcan Heavy Industry, the firm's operators continued to advance in the rain, and encountered the resistance of the Kosides members on the way. However, these scattered and uneven personnel could not resist these well-trained firm members at all. After all, they were specialized in this.
"We can't wait any longer, Chairman, activate the isolation defense system." The general manager who had been commanding on the floor before was now covered in mud and water. He stumbled into the central core area of the building and shouted to the white-haired back.
The old man did not look back, but looked at the time on the screen in front of him for a long time before raising his hand.
"Okay."
After his order was issued, the staff of 'Cosides' immediately adjusted the command system in front of them. In the huge metal glass ball among the crowd, the exclusive super AI of 'Cosides' started to work, and then lines of subtitles were refreshed.
[The Xikene defense system is starting... Start adding enemy identification, please enter the identification image...]
[The image of our own unit has been entered, and the first scan and enemy identification have begun...]
[The three-dimensional map has been built, the enemy identification has been completed, and the defense network has begun to be built...]
A complex blue pattern appeared on the outer edge of the giant glass ball, and at this time a black and purple crossbow arrow shot like a stream of light and hit the glass ball. This scene almost made the hearts of the members of Cosides present jump out.
But fortunately, the transparent metal glass ball cover did not shatter, but the blue pattern bounced off the crossbow arrow, and then the complex pattern rotated, and the spherical shield continued to spread.
Each defense system provided by the giant enterprise 'Sikne Security Provider' is expensive. The cheapest one costs 1 billion federal coins. Although expensive, such a defense barrier is also very strong. As long as the magic power is sufficient, there are almost no dead angles and shortcomings, so that the opponent can only fight head-on and fall into a situation of energy exchange. It is the trump card of many large enterprises to deal with emergencies.
With the protection of this ever-expanding blue spherical shield, the members of Kosides and the fighters of 'Vulcan Heavy Industry' inside are relieved again. They are organized into small positions. As long as any member of the firm wants to get close, they will be attacked by concentrated fire. The members of the 'Blood Crossbow' firm who could sneak attack and shoot outside before found that the crossbow arrows could not penetrate the blue shield, while the personnel inside could shoot outside. This situation is almost one-sided, which puts the firm in a great dilemma.
Time passed by minute by minute. It was already nine o'clock in the evening. In three hours, this 'patent war' will be declared over. If they cannot get the target patent information at that time, the commissions obtained by these firms will be greatly discounted, and the firm rating points will also drop significantly.
"Things don't look good, President Tilan." The slightly careless voice sounded from the side of the girl. As the girl turned her head, she saw Jin Senke getting off a crimson hovercraft, followed by many followers. Among them, there was a young man with short gray-green hair who was a head taller than Jin Senke and particularly conspicuous.
"Come, Zakrez, this is the President Tilan you have been thinking about and admiring." He patted the short-haired young man next to him.
From the moment he saw Heshia, the young man's pupils gradually widened, as if he had seen some incredible miracle. He almost held his breath and dared not make any sound until Jin Senke patted him on the back and woke up from this state.
He staggered a few steps, as if he was about to kneel on one knee, but fell in the rain and knelt on both knees, but he did not intend to correct it, as if this was the will of fate. He pressed his hands in the rain and slowly lowered his head.
"Your Highness Tilan." There was a tremor in the words, with nervousness and a kind of ecstasy that was difficult to suppress, and such a respectful title was almost only seen in those legendary figures.
"Why do you call me like this?" The girl's voice came from above his head.
"Because I..." He suddenly remembered something and quickly changed his words.
"...My fault, no, I was panicked and made a slip of the tongue. Because of your beauty, I was at a loss for words. Please forgive me." He realized something, slowly stood up, and spoke to a normal person.
Seeing that the young man had returned to normal, Tilan didn't care what he was thinking for the time being, but turned his attention to Jin Senke on the side.
"President, this Zakrez is my friend and acquaintance. Although he seemed a little out of control just now, he is actually very reliable." He also felt a little embarrassed. He had always thought that Zakrez was the kind of person of his age who was extremely mature and stable, and even quite scheming. Why did he seem to be a completely different person today?
"I don't know if you have heard of the company 'Qing Tang Mtis'. Zakrez is the fourth heir of 'Qing Tang Mtis' today, and his father is the chairman and person in charge of Qing Tang Mtis."
After Jin Senke finished speaking, Anneli whispered in Tilan's ear.
"'Green Mantis' is a semi-military enterprise in the Four-leaf Crystal Star Region. Its products include both military and civilian parts. Among them, several lightweight mechas are products designated by the military." After saying this, Anneli took a half step back and looked at Zakrez with vigilance.
Logically speaking, the person in front of her should be a member of the 'Starship Faction', that is, a person close to the military camp. Why did he suddenly appear here at this moment? Doesn't Jin Senke know that the person in front of him is hard to trust? She has heard a lot of rumors about Zakrez. Although this guy is only 19 years old, his methods are ruthless. In order to fight for the right of inheritance, his two brothers were frightened by him and developed psychological problems. They moved to the central star region for a long time and have not returned for two years.
"Hello, I'm Heshia." Although she didn't know what the purpose of the person approaching her was, Heshia still showed her politeness and bowed to return the greeting just now.
"No, there's no need to be so formal." Zakrez was a little nervous, and his hands and feet were slow to react for a moment. He seemed to want to stop Heshia from saluting, but he also seemed to be afraid that physical contact would cause the girl to be disgusted.
She didn't quite understand the young man's emotions, but he really had no ill intentions, just pure surprise and nervousness, and the girl thought about it.
"Your Highness Tilan, ahem, President Tilan, you summoned us here, I guess you have something to tell us." Zakrez took the initiative to start the topic, and then helped Jin Senke introduce the group of people behind him.
Several of them were representatives of powerful firms, and several were core figures of companies that legally possessed armed combatants.
"This is the representative of the Gate Firm... This is the representative of the Royal Voice Firm... This is the representative of the Three Pivot Firm... This is the resident foreign affairs manager of the Tin Horn Deer Company... This is the third son of the Gilded Worm Company..."
These people nodded and greeted Heshia one by one, and then introduced their companies and firms.
In the past, such companies could be said to be large companies that Tilan dared not hope for, but now the representatives of these companies and firms stood in front of her, sitting upright, and seemed to be more restrained and nervous than her.
Although Tilan herself had no awareness or had not yet adapted to her change of identity, in the eyes of these people, the girl in front of them was a big shot that they could not reach. The turmoil in the entire Four-Leaf Crystal could be said to have originated from this girl.
The supreme pearl of Edes Academy, the singer who was admired and loved by countless young people in the star field, the leader of the next generation of the Federation, and one of the singers who many experts predicted to be most likely to enter the Moon Level. Even Saint Ingo did not dare to send people to discredit this girl on social media during his fight with Edes, and even had to pretend to be generous and praise her.
This was certainly because Saint Ingo did not want to create enemies unnecessarily, but there were also many people paying attention to the future of this girl herself. Even Saint Ingo Academy did not dare to touch certain red lines. The singer had a special meaning to the Federation. In the eyes of the Central Council, the governor of the Four-Leaf Crystal Star Field could be changed every year, but there were only these singers in the Federation.
Listening to Zakrez's introduction, the girl nodded in response one by one, and then her eyes slowly swept over, and the people she saw seemed to have the illusion that they were seen through.
Is this the singer? Many people had a fresh and slightly stimulating feeling in their hearts, and then they restrained their thoughts slightly, trying not to think about strange things.
Although some experts said that the singer could not read minds, many folk legends said that the singer was almost omnipotent, not only reading minds, but also reading memories, so many people would rather believe it.
"Thank you all for coming. This time, there are indeed some things that need your help." The girl's slightly soft voice made the people present relax unconsciously, and even a little fascinated, as if there was a special charm in these simple words, making people want to listen to the girl all the time.
After realizing the changes in her voice and words, the girl restrained herself slightly, and then her voice became formal and slightly cold, which made everyone sober up and listen to her ideas.
...
"In other words, President Tilan hopes that we will help the 'Isher' company destroy the defense system of 'Cosides' and let them win normally, like this." A company representative stepped forward and asked carefully.
"Yes, but I don't want you to make too much noise. It's better to control it to a relatively small scope." She didn't want all the company representatives to come out in a moment of excitement and make it too high-profile.
"In this case..." They looked at each other, as if communicating with their eyes.
In fact, to help 'Isher' win this patent war, any of them can be sent. After all, the strength of 'Cosides' is not strong, but now everyone has this opportunity to gain favor in front of Tilan.
With their backs to the girl, several people gestured to each other and communicated silently for a few seconds. Just when Tilan was curious and wanted to ask what they were discussing, Zakrez turned around. He first bowed gracefully, put one hand on his heart, and then raised his body.
"This time, let the 'Blue Mantis' under my command clear the obstacles for Miss Heshia."
"Uh, thank you... Then what kind of reward do you need?" The girl thought that if she didn't have enough money, she would let Anneli pay for it temporarily and pay it back later. She was still a little confident that she could make money in the future. After all, she could earn a lot by selling albums as a singer, and this was without sponsorship from other companies.
"No reward, no, it's not that I don't need anything. I just beg Miss Heshia to let me be your follower and follow you." Zakrez's words revealed a little enthusiasm.
"Hey, is it that simple?" Tilan was a little surprised and surprised, and blinked.
But everyone present sighed at Zakrez's greed, thinking that through this matter, he would become a core member of the girl in front of him.
"It's not impossible, but I hope that people around me don't do bad things. Can you do that?" The girl's seemingly innocent words actually come with many invisible conditions. If you really want to look into it, it almost requires Zakrez to be consistent in his words and deeds, and not to do anything that violates Heshia's spiritual values.
If it were a normal friend, Heshia would not say this or ask for it, but after all, it was the first time she met an outsider like Zakrez, and her standards were subconsciously raised a lot.
"I can do it, and I swear I will do it." After receiving Heshia's approval, Zakrez swore with a burning look in his eyes. This look was so pious that it made others wonder if he was acting. Didn't he know that lying in front of the singer was a dangerous thing?
Fortunately, Heshia finally recognized the oath and nodded slightly.
Shortly after everyone on the scene made the decision, a fleet of emerald green suspension trucks sped through the rain, passing through intersections at lightning speed, turning the oncoming rain into extremely fine cone-shaped water mist. Inside the carriages, fully armed combatants sat in a row. They all wore cyan exoskeleton armor, held precision guns, and had faint cyan arc blades on their arms. At this moment, they were not in an activated state, but were faintly glowing, ready to go.
At ten o'clock in the evening, the rain outside the car was getting heavier.
