Book 9: The Rebellious Apostle Chapter 015 Cornelia's Suspicion
Emiya raised his eyebrows and was about to type on his phone when he suddenly received a call from Lelouch.
"Hey, what's the matter with you calling me so late, Lelouch?"
Lelouch's voice came from the phone, "I plan to attack the Sakura Stone mining area in Mount Fuji tonight. Would you be interested in coming to take a look? And take away the Sakura Stone you need."
"Tonight? You're pretty quick." Emiya said in surprise, "Okay, I'm interested to see where you are now. I'll go find you."
"Mount Fuji, of course," Lelouch said confidently.
"wait for me."
After Emiya hung up the phone, he said in the chat group: "You guys chat, I have something to do and I'll leave first."
After exiting the chat group, he left the room, called Dragon Maid, CC, Maizo and Weiss, and in an instant they crossed thousands of mountains and rivers and arrived at the sky above Mount Fuji.
Then, Emiya released his Observation Haki and swept across the surroundings of Mount Fuji. In an instant, he found Lelouch and his group who were hiding together and preparing to take action.
So he changed direction and flew towards Lelouch and his group.
At the same time, Lulu was observing the environment around the Fuji Mountain mining area when a voice suddenly came from his headset, "ZERO, our people have discovered that several UFOs are flying towards us at a very fast speed."
"Fly over here?" Lelouch was about to give the order to shoot them down, but suddenly he thought of something, "Shan Yao, confirm what those flying objects are."
After a while, the voice came again, "No... Impossible, how could it be possible! How could such a ridiculous thing be possible!!"
Lelouch asked, "Shan Kaname, what exactly happened?"
"ZERO, those UFOs turned out to be people, and people were flying in the air!!!" Shan Yao's voice was completely out of tune because of surprise.
Lelouch couldn't help but smile bitterly. This was a really arrogant way to show up. "Shan Yao, tell them not to do anything. He's the financial sponsor of our operation."
"Gold...Gold Master?"
"That's right, entertain them first, I'll be there soon." Lelouch gave up observing the mining area and walked quickly towards the secret place of the Black Knights.
When Lelouch rushed back as fast as he could, he heard the voice of Kallen Benizuki.
"Why are you here?"
When Lelouch passed through the crowd, he saw Kallen Benizuki confronting Emiya and his group. The unhappy expression on her face was quite obvious.
Shan Yao was at a loss and asked, "Karen, do you know this person?"
Kallen nodded, "This guy is the Prime Minister trusted by the Chinese Federation."
This sentence immediately caused a huge wave among the entire Black Knights, and many people looked at Emiya and his group with an expression of disbelief.
The Prime Minister of the Chinese Federation is an unimaginable big shot. Why would such a big shot appear here?
Many people began to whisper.
Lelouch just walked out. "Yes, the man standing before you is the new Prime Minister of the Chinese Federation, the financial sponsor of our mission, and also the sponsor of the ten machines."
"What?" Hongyue Kallen was suddenly surprised, "I have never heard of such a thing, ZERO."
Emiya took a glance and saw that Lelouch was still dressed the same as in the plot, wearing dramatic clothes, a mask, and fully armed. Unless one had X-ray vision, no one would be able to tell at a glance that under the mask was the eleventh prince of Britannia, the vice-president of the student council of Ashford Academy.
Lelouch said, "Where else do you think these ten machines came from, Kallen."
Hongyue Kallen said dissatisfiedly: "So, for these ten machines , we have to be the guns of the Chinese Federation, ZERO."
Lelouch said calmly: "This is just a cooperation. Kallen, the Chinese Federation is short of Sakura Stone and is willing to use the market price to purchase the Sakura Stone we have snatched. This can be said to be a matter of killing two birds with one stone."
He raised a finger, "First, we can use this action to declare the strength of the Black Knights."
"Second, we can weaken Britannia's strength. Even if it's only a little bit, it will add up and Britannia will be seriously injured. After all, Sakura Stone is a strategic resource."
"Third, we can obtain sufficient funds from the Chinese Federation. With these funds, we can win over more fellow rebels and purchase more powerful weapons."
Lelouch's voice came from the mask, "Shan Yao, you should understand the pain of an organization without funds. Without funds, we can't even get enough food, how can we win over more compatriots? Without funds, we have no way to buy weapons, how can we resist Britannia."
Shan Yao nodded seriously. Lelouch's words touched his heart.
Ever since Naoto Kozuki died, he has accepted this resistance organization and has been worrying about the organization's affairs every day. Although ZERO's origins are unknown, he did lead them to fight several wars and obtained weapons and funds.
This is also the reason why he agreed to let a guy of unknown origin accept the organization on his behalf.
After all, he is totally unqualified to be the boss.
"Karen, what ZERO said is very right. If our organization wants to develop and grow, it needs funds and weapons, and the Chinese Federation can provide us with these."
Hongyue Kallen actually knew this, and she gritted her teeth, "I, I know."
Shan Yao saw that Hongyue Kallen agreed, and then looked at the others. Most of the Black Knights had no objection to this. After all, they would not refuse something that could get them money and weapons.
After all, no one wants to fight Britannia with bare hands.
Shan Yao said: "We all trust you, ZERO, lead us to do it."
As for the fact that Emiya and his companions flew over, they chose to forget about it. Many people privately speculated that it might be the latest technology or something.
Lelouch nodded, "In that case, everyone listen to my orders. Kallen, you take a few people onto the machine and prepare for the assault. The others follow me."
After receiving the order, Hongyue Kallen did not hesitate and took a few of her men on the seventh-generation machine.
Waiting for Lelouch's order.
About fifteen minutes later, the battle finally started at Lelouch's command.
Lelouch ordered Kallen to lead a team to charge first, and they easily broke into the mining area of Mount Fuji and eliminated the guards of the mining area of Mount Fuji.
Among them, Hongyue Kallen made the greatest contribution.
Because in the entire battle, she is the only one who can fully utilize the seventh-generation machine. She is like a powerful general who can defeat a thousand enemies at once and is invincible after rushing into the battlefield.
As for the others, they completely relied on the performance of the seventh-generation machines to defeat the enemies present at one against two, or one against three. The controllability was simply terrible.
If it weren't for the mining area's guard force, most of the sixth-generation machines would have been eliminated by Kallen in a month, and the gap between the remaining fifth-generation machines and the seventh-generation machines was too big.
This group of people may not be able to win this battle.
Ten minutes later, the battle was over, the guarding troops were completely wiped out, the Black Knights took over the entire mining area, and Lelouch found Emiya.
"Now, our people have occupied the mining area, but the enemy has called for support before being eliminated. In about half an hour, no, about twenty minutes, new troops will come to support, so you only have twenty minutes to take away the cherry stone here."
Emiya smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'm already prepared."
He came to the place where cherry stones were stored in the mining area, raised his right hand and pushed towards the air, and a five-meter-high void door was pushed open. Li Xingke and a group of people drove the machine and rushed in from the other side of the door.
Emiya pointed to the sealed cherry stones around him and said, "These are them. Move them all away."
Li Xingke nodded, and the commander began to act. One machine after another transported barrels of cherry stones back to the Chinese Federation.
Although sakuraite is a precious metal, the sakuraite actually used is usually in liquid form, that is... fluid sakuraite, so it is packed in barrels instead of boxes.
In less than ten minutes, the fluid cherry stones were delivered.
Li Xingke was the last one to leave. Before closing the void gate, Emiya said to Li Xingke: "Count the value of these cherry stones when you go back and tell me."
Li Xingke nodded, turned and walked into the gate.
Emiya closed the door and said to Lelouch, "You can leave now."
Lelouch immediately ordered a retreat, and the Black Knights began to retreat in an orderly manner. When the reinforcements arrived, the entire mining area was deserted.
Even the cherry stones that had been developed not long ago were emptied, which surprised the leading man. He shouted, "Report, report to Governor Cornelia immediately."
Not long after, the witch of the Britannian Empire, who was also the second princess and the new governor of District 11, heard the news and was furious.
"hateful!!!"
She had not expected that under her governance, someone would raid the Mount Fuji mining area. That was the Sakura Stone mining area. In order to protect these Sakura Stones, the guard force had to be extremely powerful, and even the rare sixth-generation machines in the Empire were equipped.
But even so, they were still extinguished.
This made Cornelia angry and extremely frightened at the same time.
She believed that even if she led a group of people to attack the mining area, they might not be able to succeed easily. However, the enemy was able to annihilate the guarding forces in the mining area. Who had such strength?
The resistance organization in Britannia should not have such strength.
Could it be the Chinese Federation?
Not long ago, the Chinese Federation did invent a flying mecha, which was the best in the world in terms of maneuverability and flexibility, even the mechas of the Britannian Empire were far inferior to it.
If it were them, they could indeed defeat the guards of the mining area.
