Chapter 730: The fish ran away with the hook
"That's pretty much it, boss."
When Lao Jiang's consciousness projection returned to Nia's body in the Alpha world in the form of a mounted program, he obtained the latest situation of the mechanical world.
Nia summarized all the information she had collected so far and said to Lao Jiang:
“Although there have been signs of all-out war before.
But since yesterday, the order for the regiment to assemble has ended, and the Council of Leaders announced that this was a "war exercise" specially arranged to deal with the frequent invasions of flesh and blood life.
The exercise was announced to be over at noon yesterday, and the middle and lower regiments were asked to return to their respective garrisons.
They have certainly given up on all-out war.
However, our War Hound Regiment has received an assembly order from the higher-ups, requiring us to go to the Fifth Ring for transformation, and several other elite regiments have also been transferred there.
To form a new temporary mixed regiment."
Personal Intelligence paused for a moment, waiting for the boss to digest the news, and then added:
"I asked Metal, and it told me that such an arrangement was rare in the past, but it was not uncommon. Deliberately drawing elite troops from various places to form a new battle group means that the intensity of the war will be reduced.
Most likely they're asking us to go on raid-style looting missions.
This is a decision that the Leaders' Council will only make when facing a difficult large civilization and the war enters a stalemate."
"So, what this means is that you will have to go to Kumu Territory frequently to plunder resources from now on?"
Jiang Xia asked back.
Nia nodded.
"That's good. That's good."
Lao Jiang was very satisfied with this.
I thought that the masked mechanical sage, whom I had never met before, was indeed Jiang's "close friend".
Without any direct communication between the two sides, the latter, through this strategic mobilization, "gifted" Jiang a mechanical army that could be "summoned" anytime and anywhere.
This also made Jiang Xia more certain of the identity of the Mechanical Sage.
From throwing Mrs. Ba into the Alpha World to a series of events afterwards, it was basically equivalent to the two of them "exchanging secret codes". Now that the secret codes have been aligned, it's just a matter of both parties cooperating to complete the final goal.
"We still have to find a way to meet with the Mechanical Sage."
Lao Jiang said this, he thought for a moment, and said to Nia:
"You can take our people to join the mixed group. I will give you information at the critical moment. Just like this time, lead them to the next 'victim'."
"OK."
Nia responded, and then said shyly:
"Boss, we agreed before that I could retire after I lead the War Hounds Regiment out. Now this regiment has become a vassal of the Great Regiment.
It's time for me to leave Alpha World and return to work with you.
How about I plan a plan so that I can 'die accidentally in battle' and then withdraw?"
"No, your mission is not yet complete."
Boss Jiang was embarrassed for a moment, and said righteously:
"You have one last mission. You have to serve as my carrier to complete the meeting with the Mechanical Sage. I promise you, as long as this task is completed, I will let you come back, okay?"
"No such thing!"
Nia said irritably:
"Before you talked about forming a war group, then you talked about becoming a vassal, and now you have to meet with the sage! I followed your orders and came to Alpha World to be an undercover agent. Day by day, I have become a centurion!
Is it really possible to become a mechanical general?
I see you have no intention of fulfilling your promise at all, bad boss!"
"It's not that I don't want to fulfill it, it's just that your request is too wild."
Lao Jiang said helplessly:
"I'm really not ready for giving birth. Can you give me some time to prepare? Look, the world is about to end, right?"
"I didn't say it has to be now."
Nia snorted and said coquettishly:
"It's mainly because Shi Yan is pushing me too hard, and I have no choice. So let's put it this way. As soon as I finish the meeting with the Mechanical Sage, I will withdraw.
After seeing a lot of fighting and killing, I realized that it is most comfortable to stay with you, boss.
I really miss you."
"Okay, okay, I'll talk to you when you come back."
Faced with this passionate confession of personal intelligence, Lao Jiang was caught off guard. He fled in embarrassment after saying a few words, causing Nia to burst into laughter, and her data stream was shaking.
This intelligent person, who is becoming more and more distinctive, loves to tease Lao Jiang the most.
Jiang Xia, whose consciousness was withdrawn and returned to his body, wiped the non-existent sweat from his forehead in a dramatic manner.
He walked around in his cave and began to study the small armillary sphere left by Juzi.
Although I had promised Lady Xixin that I would work hard, everything is now being carried out in a planned manner. Everything has been assigned to different links and there are dedicated people to coordinate.
No matter how anxious he is, he has to take things one step at a time.
The gathering of the remaining civilization exploration fleet in the Eden World has come to an end, and most of the crew members have been arranged. Once the matter in the Bitter Wood Realm is settled, we can officially enter the next stage.
That will be the "great expansion period" of the World Tree Consortium, and Lao Jiang, the helmsman, must be prepared .
But his leisure time did not last long.
Half an hour later, the strange watch on Lao Jiang's wrist suddenly vibrated. He raised his wrist, activated it, and saw the figure of the tokamak appear in the optical projection.
The superhero of World M looked serious at this moment and said to Lao Jiang:
"The other party has taken action. Twenty minutes ago, they raided our assembly workshop in the Atlantic Ocean and looted all the components of the Zhoutian Star Array.
They are ready to act.”
"Oh, the efficiency is really slow. The flowers I've been waiting for are almost withered."
Jiang Xia stood up suddenly after hearing this.
The small celestial sphere in his hand rotated slightly under the filling of spiritual energy, and the teleportation magic was activated in the next moment, taking Lao Jiang into the M world and landing accurately on the tokamak...
Well, this superhero is now wearing a very cool armor and flying quickly to the scene.
Lao Jiang fell from the sky and rode on the waist of the superhero who was flying straight.
This posture is very bad.
"Click"
The Tokamak's armor visor flew outwards, and he said to Lao Jiang, who was riding on his back, in a bad tone:
"You must have done this on purpose, right? Boss Jiang."
"It's not intentional. You know, I've been learning to master the advanced application of this time-travel ability recently. Now I don't need a star gate to travel through the world. I have to calculate the landing point by myself.
Sometimes I feel tired or stressed out, so I miss the point.
So, it could be that you are just unlucky. Uh, your armor is really uncomfortable to sit in. It is not comfortable at all and not humane at all. "
Boss Jiang rode on the Tokamak, flying through the clouds like he was riding a rocket. He talked a lot and also expressed his experience of riding the armor.
As a result, the superhero had a sour face and did a big spin of several thousand degrees in the air, trying to throw the evil-minded Lao Jiang off him.
But Jiang is such a remarkable man, how could he be defeated by such a small trick?
He laughed and produced a rope as if he was controlling a war horse. He tied it around the superhero's shoulders, making it impossible for the Tokamak to break free.
But he is a normal man, how could he allow another man to ride on him?
So, with the whooshing transformation, the entire suit of armor disintegrated in the air, and then covered the superhero again a few seconds later.
While Lao Jiang was free falling, he saw the Tokamak in front of him raise its left hand and mechanically rotate to become a melta cannon with a caliber as big as his head.
"Ohhhh, don't play with this dangerous thing!"
Boss Jiang raised his hands in the air, tilted his head, and said to the superhero in front of him:
"Calm down, calm down, it's just a joke."
"If you can beat me, I really want to blow your head off with a shot! Just like this, bang...poof"
Tokamak made an blasting gesture helplessly and angrily, and even made sounds with his mouth, but he finally put away the melta cannon on his arm and landed lightly next to Lao Jiang.
The latter was walking on a cloud, leisurely moving towards the scene of the incident.
"That's a cool thing. Did you make it from your new research on the war life on the Alpha World?"
Boss Jiang took a look at the deformed weapon module on the tokamak's arm. He touched his left prosthesis and thought that it had not been upgraded for a long time.
Then he asked:
“Is the technology mature?”
"What do you want to do?"
Tokamak moved his fingers, and the armor on his body, using nanotechnology, quickly receded like the tide and was stored in the ring on his finger.
He felt the sensation of stepping on the cloud of mist with great curiosity, glared at Lao Jiang again, and said:
"Want to get my new technology for free?"
"What does that mean?"
Boss Jiang curled his lips and said:
"You are the agent of the World Tree Corporation in World M. You are my employee. The original employment agreement clearly stated that the World Tree Corporation has the priority right to use all the technologies you develop.
What's yours is mine.
I use my own stuff, is that freeloading? It's just taking whatever you want, right?"
"whispering sound"
The superhero curled his lips, and after a few seconds, he replied:
"It's still in the experimental stage, but the technology is already mature. As long as it is combined with nano-level physical coding, this weapon module can be extended to almost infinite possibilities.
But the energy issue still bothers me.
I am trying to imitate the atomic reactor module of mechanical life. If I can reverse-engineer the structure and new applications of this energy module, the power and applicability of my armor will be taken to a higher level.
When the technology matures, I will share it and publish it to the internal contribution library of the World Tree Foundation. At that time, anyone with sufficient authority can apply to view it.
Okay, let’s not talk about this anymore.
Let’s get down to business.”
"Huh? Have we been chatting away all this time? Isn't this business?"
Lao Jiang laughed, his left prosthetic hand popped open, and sent out two cigars. He threw one to the superhero beside him, and controlled the clouds under his feet, flying towards the isolated island in the Atlantis Sea ahead that was still emitting black smoke.
While puffing out smoke, Boss Jiang said to the superhero beside him:
"The World Heart Guardians risked everything and snatched away the components of the Zhoutian Star Array that we were preparing to assemble on the island, which means they encountered the expected 'scientific research difficulties'.
Now that they have made the move to snatch the components, they must know that their existence can no longer be concealed.
There is only one way left for them.
That is to assemble the Zhoutian Star Array as quickly as possible and then activate it, and send Barbara to my world... We don't leave them a second way.
Now, things have come to this point, and you and your companions don’t have to worry about what happens next.
The most important thing for you to do now is to return to your homes, take your families to the nearest church, and pray to the gods you believe in. "
Lao Jiang glanced at the Tokamak and said:
“Pray that everything goes well, and pray that Barbara Sin Bollian can return to your world in a pure form within the seven days before the end of the world.
Before the M world falls apart due to various natural disasters, wash away the future suffering that you will bear.
Because there is nothing else you can do.”
"I have gathered everyone."
Tokamaks don’t think so.
He raised his head, took the cigar from the corner of his mouth, and said to Lao Jiang:
“It may sound unlucky to say this, but we are ready to die in another world, or Barbara’s heart in this world will be cleansed.
Or we die along with our world in the fight against catastrophic doomsday.
This is the last fight for our world!
No matter how weak our power is, we cannot be absent, and you cannot deprive us of the right to fight for our own world."
Hearing this, Jiang Xia shrugged and said:
"It doesn't matter. If you want to come, come along. But I think you will be beaten so badly by the tough guys in Mingliyuan that your mother won't recognize you. So, buy insurance in advance."
