Chapter 269 Li Ming: Let Deyes come out! (Please give me some monthly tickets at the end of the month, hehe!)
Li Ming said pointedly, "Sir Benny, how come you seem to care more about this matter than the Torch Organization?"
"They haven't come to urge me, but you've been urging me repeatedly these past few days, constantly hinting at me."
Jessiah added, "Yeah, if you don't know, you might think you're also a member of the Torch Organization. Even those of us who know can't understand why you're so anxious."
Benny's expression remained unchanged, he just lamented, "I've worked so hard to get to this point, and now it's almost finished, how can I not be anxious?"
"Your Excellency Qinglong, you seem so relaxed all day long, clearly having a plan in mind."
"Ha..." Li Ming laughed. "If I had it all figured out, I would have built it myself a long time ago. I just thought that no one from the Torch Organization was urging me, so there was no need to rush."
Benny was speechless, not wanting to continue discussing the matter, so he said, "Tell me, where on earth has Deyes been? Even Roll, the man I sent to look for him, has been missing for several days."
"These people are also silent as cicadas, and they don't know anything when asked."
"Who knows? Maybe he's on strike. He's a great mechanic, and Torch is using him as a tool now. He might need to adjust his mentality." Jessiah said casually.
Benny looked worried. "Isn't Deyes impulsive? Or is he imprisoned? What if the Torch Organization fails and kills him?"
"The Torch Organization killed him?" Li Ming thought thoughtfully, "It's not impossible."
Jesaya frowned and said coldly, "If the Torch Organization opens this loophole, they might attack us."
"I was just saying it casually." Benny laughed awkwardly, and seeing that the two of them were thinking deeply about this matter, he hurriedly explained.
As they were chatting, the mechanical door suddenly opened and a gust of cold wind rushed in. Benny subconsciously turned his head to look, his expression stunned.
I saw that the group was led by Cornett, with Fernand standing on the right, and the man standing on the left looked about 70% similar to Cornett, but looked a little more rebellious.
twin?
"Mr. Cornett, your eyes?" Benny couldn't help but say.
Li Ming was also surprised. He didn't expect that Cornett was injured so badly. The bloody hole on his left eye was quite creepy.
Jessiah's mechanical pupils quickly analyzed the energy levels of the three people and said in a deep voice, "Such a big show, what are you guys planning to do?"
Cornett looked around at everyone. His men had already evacuated the other experimental personnel. He said to himself, "Not long ago, I left here to implement a key plan."
"But unfortunately, the plan was leaked, and I was ambushed by Asmara, suffering heavy losses."
"This makes me suspect there's a mole inside the base."
"A traitor?" Benny was surprised, his expression becoming grim again. "What does this have to do with us?"
"After my detailed investigation, I can confirm that the traitor is among you." Cornett stared at the three of them, his tone firm.
“So, I hope you can prove yourselves.”
Jessiah's face suddenly darkened, and then he sneered, "We've been staying in the rest area the whole time. How could we possibly know your plan? If something goes wrong, instead of investigating your own people, you suspect us."
"Yeah." Benny agreed repeatedly, "What does this have to do with us?"
Just as Cornett was about to speak, he was rudely interrupted by Jessiah, his voice cold: "This is nonsense, but you ask us to prove it ourselves. It's ridiculous. I even said that this was directed and acted by you, so you have to prove it yourself!"
Ke Weisi said indifferently, "We can certainly confirm that we are fine. Letting you prove yourself is already a great honor for us."
"Heh..." Jessia sneered, "Do you really think of us as your subordinates? We're not Deyes!"
"Wait..." Li Ming looked suspicious when he mentioned the name, and then he said, "Everyone, can I ask where Deyes is?"
"Hmm?" Cornett's eyes narrowed slightly, and Jessia's expression changed slightly. He shouted, "Yes, where's Deyes!"
"Deyes can't show up for the time being." Cornett said in a deep voice.
"Can't show up?" Li Ming sneered. "I don't think so. Is it really like Mr. Benny speculated that Deyes was killed by you?"
Benny was confused, but as an old man, he quickly reacted and stared at Cornett.
"That's right, Deyes, why can't he show up? Even if you've detained him or seriously injured him, it's okay for him to show up."
They don't have a good relationship with Deyes, but they were all invited by the Torch Organization.
Overall, they and the Torch Organization belong to two different camps. Brot was killed by Qinglong, which was an internal conflict.
Deyes was controlled by the Torch Organization, and they didn't bother to say much, but being killed was not an option.
Because this involves the "credibility" and "bottom line" of the torch.
"No wonder you're not in a hurry." Li Ming looked enlightened, as if he had figured something out. He sneered, "You've probably already got the remaining data on how to make the sublimator from Deyes. Then we're probably useless."
"Only the last 20% of the progress remains. Most of the problems have been solved. The mechanics within your organization can accept it."
"What do you mean by traitor? That's the reason for you to cause trouble."
Cornett looked solemn, a little confused in his heart. Why did the development of the situation seem so strange?
He originally wanted to use this incident to see everyone's reaction and see if they could detect any clues, but he felt like he had been outmaneuvered.
If you think about it carefully, Qinglong's speculation is not unreasonable.
"Deyes is not available to show up." Keweisi stared at Qinglong and said coldly: "You have been asking Deyes to come out. Could it be that you knew it a long time ago..."
"Who do you think you are!?" Li Ming suddenly shouted, and mercury-like liquid flowed through his body in an instant, and then formed a solid metal mecha, and the tank mecha was already dressed.
"You have no right to speak!"
"I'll say it again." His voice had become a hollow, mechanical echo. "Let Deyes come out and prove that you didn't kill him."
Fernand's face turned cold, and he attacked without any warning. With a bang, a fiery red aura rushed towards him, and the faint roar of a beast was heard.
He suddenly jumped up and rushed forward quickly, as if he had been suppressed for a long time. When he was so close, his terrifying power seemed to tear even the void apart.
The withered arm became engorged with blood and quickly transformed into a thick beast arm covered with scales, but it stopped at Cornett's angry roar.
"Fernand!"
Ke Weisi's face looked very ugly, "Qinglong!"
Behind Li Ming, one nano energy cannon muzzle after another appeared.
"Go away." He said indifferently.
Fernand restrained himself abruptly, his face flushing red.
Cornett's eyelids twitched suddenly, and he said in a deep voice: "Qinglong, we don't mean anything else. What do you want to do?"
"You came here aggressively, and you're asking us what we want to do?" Li Ming continued, leading the others. "I told you, we just want to confirm whether you've broken the agreement."
Cornett felt the situation was difficult. Fernand's face was grim. "This is our base. If you fire this shot, you have to think about the consequences."
"Oh?" Li Ming's voice was indifferent. Benny's face changed drastically when he saw Qinglong had raised his right hand.
The palm of his hand cracked, and the pitch-black energy cannon muzzle was aimed at the sublimator that was within reach.
"The consequences? Can you afford it?"
Jessiah had already entered combat mode, the energy engine in his chest emitting a low roar, stirring up a fierce wind: "Let Deyes come out!"
Cornett's face looked grim, and the situation was becoming increasingly uncontrollable.
"Everyone, everyone..." Benny said, trying to ease the situation. "Cornet is not here to blame. His injuries are real. After so many injuries, it's understandable that he has resentment."
"Mr. Cornett, the ambush has nothing to do with us. It cannot be linked to us in any way."
"As for Deyes, you should at least give me a definite answer. He still needs to complete the remaining core nodes."
"I didn't think this matter through. As for Deyes, it's really not convenient for him to show up right now." Cornett said in a deep voice, taking a step back.
"It's inconvenient, forget it." Benny said hurriedly.
Li Ming didn't bother to pay attention to him. He said urgently, "As I recall, we have a cooperative relationship with the Torch Organization. How could you all come here with such a large force, and just let it go like that?"
"Qinglong, you are the main suspect. You know exactly what you have done!" Fernando couldn't help but shout in a deep voice when he saw the other party was so arrogant.
"What did I do? Tell me?" Li Ming looked at him.
Fernande was about to speak when he suddenly felt a chill. The hairs on the back of his neck stood up, and a faint voice rang out: "I want to know what he did, too."
Cornette's pupil shrank and he turned his head suddenly. Unknowingly, Theo's figure appeared behind Fernand.
They are only ten centimeters apart.
Fernando's body was stiff, but he didn't dare to move, for fear of provoking a thundering attack from the opponent.
boom!
The metal door behind them was torn apart, and Sandro walked in with a grin, followed by Ulrich with a cold expression.
"I knew this bunch would cross the river and then destroy the bridge." Sandro grinned. "Cornet, can't you transform into a purple giant? You can try and see which is faster, Qinglong's cannon or your transformation."
Cornett took a deep breath, looked around at everyone, and finally his gaze fell on Qinglong. He said in a deep voice: "Deyes has disappeared."
If we don't say anything, a fight might really break out. The losses we've suffered are already huge enough.
"Disappeared?" Sandro was puzzled, and then said, "What kind of bullshit answer is that?"
"It's exactly what it says. He disappeared quietly from his room a few days ago," Cornett said. "We don't know where he went."
Sandro scoffed. "You're kidding me! This is your secret base. The Itlan Civilization tried their best to find it, but they couldn't. Now you tell me that Deyes disappeared without a trace in your base?"
"That's the fact. All the information is there for you to check." Cornett said in a deep voice.
Sandro was about to speak, but he scratched his head and looked at Qinglong again.
The atmosphere in the room was silent. Jessia also looked at Qinglong. Theo stared at him silently, and Benny swallowed his saliva.
"Is it true that you were ambushed?" Li Ming pondered.
"real."
"Who is the traitor?" Li Ming asked.
Cornett hesitated, but had to say, "Deyes."
"Hmm?" Everyone's expression changed slightly, and then they listened to Connet's explanation: "He used our external communication data stream, re-compiled it, and secretly contacted Asmara to pass on the information."
Ulrich's eyes were dark, and Sandro was slightly stunned. He couldn't help but ask, "What do you do for a living? How could he contact Asmara?"
"What a pig-like teammate, fuck."
Kevis's face turned grim, and Connet continued, "He also stole three of our main battleship-class gun turrets and five dimensional crystals."
"Is this true?" Benny was shocked. Is this really the Torch Organization base of the Itlan civilization that has not been found for hundreds of years?
It feels like a sieve.
"The main gun must be at least a hundred meters away, maybe even several hundred meters. How did he take it away?" Ulrich's face changed, and he finally asked in surprise, "Does he have such a method?"
"He has such means?"
The voice that rang out simultaneously was that of Li Ming. He said in a deep voice, "If he had such a method, how could Brot be killed by me?"
We want to know too!
Facing everyone's gaze, Cornett shook his head expressionlessly: "We don't know either. We're still investigating. That's why we're here today."
The drama has almost come to an end, and Cornett should be able to face the reality. They cannot bear the consequences of fighting now.
The Torch Organization can indeed rely on the power of dimensional creatures, but they are not easy to bully.
"Mr. Fernando, you were really explosive just now." Jessia looked at Fernando.
Fernande took a deep breath and gritted his teeth, "I was impulsive. I'm sorry, everyone."
The nano-energy cannon behind the Tank Guard mecha gradually disappeared, and the tense atmosphere dissipated slightly.
Li Ming retracted his arm that was pointing at the sublimator, and Benny finally let go of his worry. Theo's figure quietly left from behind Fernande.
Sandro stood at the foot of the wall with his fists clasped, while Ulrich lowered his head, not knowing what he was thinking about.
Whether openly or secretly, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
They also didn't want to really fight with Connet and others. Who knows what tricks the other party has hidden.
After removing the tank guard, Li Mingcai said, "Sir Cornett, you suspect more than just Deyes, right?"
Cornette remained silent. After this incident, Theo was more suspicious than Qinglong. This kind of stealth and speed was too terrifying.
Li Ming said with a hint of warning: "I know you want to get to the bottom of the matter. The Torch Organization has suffered considerable losses, but if you use this as an excuse to attack any of us, don't blame us for being rude."
Sandro muttered loudly, "The evidence all points to Deyes. It was Deyes who did it."
"The most you can do is make a mistake. You're not the only ones who make a mistake. Is it necessary to overthink it? You're just like Ulrich."
No one paid any attention to Sandro.
Li Ming shook his head and asked, "What should we do next? Deyes mysteriously disappeared. Is this base still safe?"
The purpose of coming here has been completely aborted, and no useful information was obtained.
Connet suppressed his inner frustration, looked around at the group, and said solemnly, "I was just about to inform you all that I'm planning to temporarily evacuate and head to the Red River Star Stream."
"The remaining parts of the sublimator should be manufactured on the way."
