The Fire Chaser of the Collapsing World

"Think about it, because of the staff reduction caused by the second Honkai, there are a backlog of many Honkai incidents around the world that have not been dealt with, and many of them have adjusted B-level tasks. Why do you want to give us a C-level task at this time?"

Mikael frowned, "Isn't it said above, because there is a time limit, the priority of this task has been advanced."

"No, something is still wrong." Himiko said, "Our fifth team is currently the team with the most recruits, but the other teams also have a lot of recruits. Anyway, you may not realize it yourself, because of the existence of the two of you, Coupled with the performance of Irkune City, our team has become a well-deserved trump card."

"According to the principle of four movements and one quiet response, the second team is carrying out the task, the third and fourth teams canceled the action of arresting Wei Wei, and instead carried out the task nearby, the remaining first and fifth teams must have one Stand by at the headquarters. Logically speaking, the ace team should be on standby...

"Perhaps, the staff wants to train the fifth team? After all, we have only carried out Wei Wei's mission after reorganization, and in the end it failed. We have no experience in direct combat with Honkai." Alicia guessed .

Mikael read the task document from beginning to end, took out the map in the attachment to observe it, and suddenly said: "I found the problem——Luluye's administrative scope is very large, and the residential areas are mainly in the outer area, including Canada. Tan District, Zojia District, and Dagon District, while the location of the academic seminar is Luluye Island in the city center. The island has an independent airport, residential and recreational facilities, and a complete range of service industries. It is only a few kilometers away from the outer districts. In other words, it is difficult for the anomalies in the outer zone to affect the academic seminars. There is no need for the city hall to submit task applications multiple times, asking the fire moths to solve the problem before the 20th. Anyway, the representatives can't see it. To the outer district...Of course, it does not rule out that the city hall will do its due diligence..."

"But there is one more point - the report mentioned: 'The investigators of the coalition government discovered the existence of a small number of Houkai beasts after in-depth investigations'. Didn't mention it at all. Also, the three blocks are 'abandoned', what does it mean to be abandoned? Is it voluntarily abandoned and all residents evacuated, or is it blocked?"

Himiko smiled sweetly: "The insight is very keen! I believe that the people in the staff department also thought of these doubts, so they sent us."

But her face quickly turned serious: "Of course, it's useless to think too much, and the truth can only be found out through field investigation... Forget it, let's not talk about such a heavy topic... Let's go to Lulu together this time Yeah there's a big one, we can still ride on it!"

Chapter 29 Big Guys

"Captain Himiko...the big guy in your mouth is bigger than I imagined..."

Mikael's whole body was shrouded in shadow, looking at the mountains made of steel alloys in front of him, he couldn't close his mouth for a long time, surprised and happy.

Alicia glanced at him silently, always feeling that his words just now were somewhat ambiguous, but this doubt was quickly interrupted by the exclamation of the team members behind her.

Even Sakura, who was silent all the way, leaned on a knife and lost her voice for a while.

Mikael looked at the introduction on the aluminum sign beside him:

[Zhuhuo No. 450.8 space battleship, 133.2 meters in length, 87.4 meters in width, and [-] meters in height]

As for the rest of the information such as weight and weapons, it is probably because it has not been fully completed, so it has not been introduced for the time being.

Himiko said: "This battleship has not yet installed weapons. According to the plan, it should be equipped with 32 270mm rail guns as secondary guns, and the main guns are eight 8mm rail guns. This installs a 430mm rail gun, I don’t know if it will be installed in the future.”

"Flamemoth is really rich." Mikael sighed.You know, a 270mm railgun can deal with low-ranking Honkai beasts that are less than ten meters in size, and a 430mm railgun even has to kneel when some high-ranking Honkai beasts that don’t appear frequently so far come.

"It was only recently that we got rich. After the second Honkai broke out, the budget given to us by the coalition government has been doubled several times. Of course, the construction of such a huge warship has actually been started a long time ago, but due to engine problems, it has been There is no chance of ascending to heaven. This time, I just went to Luluye to demonstrate, and the Moth of the Fire Chaser also wants to show a small number of people who know the strength enough to defeat the Houkai!"

"Engine?" Mikael pondered: "It seems that today's Chasing Fire No. [-] has not completely solved the engine problem, right?"

"It's really sharp." Himi praised, "The moonlight engine it is equipped with now, even if it uses the most advanced Houkai energy reactor, it can only make this empty shell move at a speed of more than 300 kilometers per hour, which is not even as good as the old-fashioned one. If the helicopter is loaded with weapons and ammunition, it may not even be able to reach a speed of 150 kilometers per hour. More importantly, the design of this warship refers to aircraft carriers, and it is planned to carry [-] aircraft of various types and a large number of mechs... "

"Moonlight Engine..." Mikael counted silently, the name suddenly reminded him of a person...

etc!Continental Mu...academic seminar...couldn't be such a coincidence, could it?

Then count the time, the third collapse...

Mikael's good mood disappeared in an instant.

He still wanted to ask something, Himiko had already turned around, urging the somewhat sloppy queue, and quickly passed the elevator into Zhuhuo No. [-].

Half an hour later, the entire base moved away along the buried railroad tracks. The sound of motors and gears turned into one, and there was a thunderous roar that echoed in the distant mountains.

From the outside, it looks like a mountain with a height of hundreds of meters on the snow field was suddenly split in two, and then separated towards the two sides under the traction of some force. There are countless tunnel chambers wrapped in steel inside—this is In the eyes of higher beings, the base of the fire-chasing moth may be no different from an ant nest.

On the ship island, because the seats were not installed properly, Mikael and the others could only be tied to the wall outside the cockpit by crude safety belts. After a while, he only felt that the ship began to tremble violently, shaking his ears. There was only a "rumbling" echo, and then the huge ship began to shake, leaning to the left and right for a while. From the outside, it might just be a small tremor, but for the people inside, it is a bit scary.

He suddenly thought of an inappropriate metaphor - it's like driving a washing machine across the ocean.

Then, there was a sudden itching feeling in the ear hole, and after that, something fell out, landed on the shoulder and bounced, and he quickly grabbed it in his hand.

Alicia caught his movement and looked over curiously.

Sakura never took her eyes off Mikael from the very beginning, now she naturally stared at his hand, guessing what he was holding in his hand.

Mikael spread his hands with a strange smile, revealing a black "peanut".

Alicia's beautiful facial features were tangled together, and she waved her hand in disgust.

Sakura stood there in a daze.

"Ymer, Yimer?"

Yimer turned his head to look at the team leader who loved him the most, "Why..."

As soon as he opened his mouth, Mikael threw "peanuts" into his mouth.

Yimer chewed instinctively, "Ouch!"

"Let your kid throw mine at me!"

What was supposed to be a serious combat mission was suddenly filled with a cheerful atmosphere-if you don't consider the injured Yimer.

But Mikael himself smiled a bit reluctantly. In the past few days, he has had little rest, and accidents happened one after another. He really couldn't bear it anymore and wanted to sleep well.

Suddenly, his heart sank, and when Mikael turned his head to look at the surrounding scenery through the porthole, he found that the altitude he was in was constantly rising.

It took a full half an hour, and Mikael couldn't count how many layers of clouds the behemoth under his feet had passed through, until the sky above became dark and deep, and the upward trend of the battleship stopped together with the continuous trembling.

Everyone exhaled in unison...

The red light on the wall in front of Himiko went out and the green light came on. She couldn't wait to unbuckle her seat belt, and so did the members of the fifth team.

"Okay, the distance from the base to Luluye is quite long. According to the speed of Zhuhuo No. 30, it will take about [-] hours to get there. Let me go to the residential area first. That is the only place that has been decorated. Post your names, one room per person!"

When they hear "one person, one room", it is inevitable that some people's eyes will shine. After all, the original base has a small space and no single living room, which severely limits their ability to develop their skills.

Mikael didn't care. After he helped Ellie settle down with the big bags and small bags, the next door was his bedroom. Coincidentally, Sakura lived opposite him.

Ellie tugged on his sleeve, as if she wanted to say something to him, but Mikael could only apologize softly.

He was really a little tired, it seemed that he hadn't had a good rest after returning from Wei Wei's incident, and when he thought about the possible weird situation of this mission, he suddenly had a migraine.

Logically speaking, he hadn't been to the scene yet, lacked on-the-spot investigation and evidence, so even if he racked his brains, he couldn't think of anything.But Mikael's thinking is more active than that of ordinary people, and his brain hardly has free time, and he always starts to think meaninglessly about tasks in a daze.

Ellie wanted to help him with his luggage, but he waved his hand to stop her.

Mikael walked to the next door alone, his name was pasted on a white paper on the door.

He took out the key, inserted it into the hole and turned it...

"Huh? It won't turn! It's already unlocked? What's going on?"

Mikael looked around, and the rest of the team members had already entered their rooms, even Sakura and Himiko.

He couldn't help becoming vigilant, gently holding the doorknob, and turning it slowly until there was a soft "click", and he quickly pushed the door open and entered.

The imaginary raider does not exist.

But the figure does have one.

Mebius didn't wear the white coat that symbolizes scientific research personnel, but simply put on a light green shirt.

The long green hair is simply pulled into a high ponytail, which wipes away Mikael's inherent impression of her. Coupled with her taller figure than Ellie, she really has the temperament of a mature lady.

"What are you doing here?"

Mikael asked softly while frowning and closing the door.

"Why, as a high-level executive of Chaser Moth, is there any problem for me to appear here?"

She covered her forehead impassively.

Mikael moved her hand away, only to see a bruise on his forehead——Obviously, Mebius picked up Chasing Fire No. [-] secretly, and then hid in Mikael's room, but because there was no seat belt during takeoff, Protection, it is estimated that the fall is enough.

Mebius patted Mikael's hand away, fiddled with his bangs to cover the bruise, and said at the same time: "I saw a paper before and found it very interesting. I heard that the author is a female high school student. It's even more strange."

"So you sent her an invitation letter, asking her to attend the academic seminar in Mu Dalu, but you yourself couldn't do without the flame moth for some reason, so you had to sneak in? You are smarter than I thought, At least without removing the landing gear..."

"You..." Mebius looked at Mikael in surprise, his eyes seemed to say: How do you know?

But she quickly came back to her senses and showed a meaningful smile:

"Where is the landing gear on this battleship... Hey! Didn't they quarrel with Farmas because of you, and then they were grounded..."

Dr. Mebius, something is wrong with you...

Mikael quickly took two steps back, "Dr. Mebius, calm down!"

Mebius responded with a sneer: "Okay, no kidding, I was actually grounded very early. Didn't you realize that I've never left the Flaming Moth base?"

"This is why..." Mikael understood halfway through his words.

On the one hand, Mebius is too important to Flamemoth, on the other hand, she is just...

In short, grounding her is the most economical solution.

"I'll report the matter, and now that it's done, Farmas will probably allow you to attend the academic seminar under surveillance."

"Tch, you sound like you know Famas very well."

"I don't care about that..." Mikael covered his head, he felt like his head was going to explode.

"Doctor, may I ask you to leave my room?"

"Hey! Why?"

"Does this need a reason?"

"do you need?"

"Don't you need it?"

"Are you trying to do something bad, or are you waiting for Alicia to drop by?" Mebius rarely showed a narrow smile.

"Dr. Mebius, I suspect that you have mental problems..." In fact, what Mikael wanted to say was: "I'm afraid you weren't pretending to be Ellie!"

"Mikael, you are a little too heartless. You see, the two of us live alone in the same room, and no one knows my existence. We have enough time..."

Mebius gnawed on his fingers while parodically imitating other people's winking.

Mikael felt a chill in his heart.

It's not that he hates Mebius, it's just that today's doctor really seems to have taken the wrong medicine/didn't take the medicine.

Based on Mikael's understanding of her, if she did not take the wrong medicine, it meant that Mebius was more interested in him.

But who knows when she will turn her back and chop him up?

Mikael suddenly regrets getting involved with her.

After all, the body of the Second Herrscher is still lying in the opponent's laboratory.

"Hey, by the way, why don't you give me some deoxyribose, and I'll try to make a test tube to see the difference between the Herrscher's offspring and ordinary humans, huh, don't you want to know?"

"Uh-huh?"

Mikael was stunned.

But after thinking about it, maybe this is really what Grandma Mebius really thought?

Mikael's eyes gradually widened...

"boom!"

Mebius was thrown out of the room.

She got up with a grim face, and before she could utter the curse words, she caught a glimpse of Ellie standing by the door leaning against the wall.

She held a set of head massage equipment in one hand, half covered her mouth with the other hand, and smiled narrowly:

"Oh! Dr. Mebius, you guys are over too soon!"

Under the eyes of Mebius who seemed to be breathing fire, Ellie showed a victorious smile, brushed the hair hanging by her ears, and swaggered open the door of Mikael's room.

"Then it's my turn!"

Chapter 30 The Weird Mayor

"All members of the fifth team, please gather at the bridge!"

Early the next morning, Zhuhuo-[-] had already flown over Luluye.

Probably due to the rush to work, the bridge is a bit crude, like a combination of several water pipes and container steel plates.There are not as many people in the cockpit as Mikael imagined, not even more than 20 people-think about it, the more technology develops, the higher the degree of intelligence.

"Can Zhuhuo-[-] fly with only one pilot under extreme circumstances?"

Intrigued, Mikael turned his head and asked the artificial intelligence on the side.

"No." The artificial intelligence categorically denied it.

"All right……"
