"Death...that person, he can prevent death from happening!" A mysterious voice echoed in my ears again, "He's about to succeed...stop him...Wickelqi wants to kill everyone!"
"The end of one thing is just the beginning of something new. We will lead humanity into a new era..."
The figure of Wickelqi gradually faded away, replaced by the distant call of Youxiang, "Save...stop, Juxi will end this long dream and save all of us..."
Fragments of time scattered around me, and Wickelqi seemed to appear so many times!
"The reason we can never have lasting peace is ultimately because the people of the world are not united enough. If there were no countries in the world, war and such would cease to exist!"
"Money and power...we have all pursued them, or are still struggling on the path of pursuit, but in fact, we have long been ensnared by its grasp."
Many years have passed, and although the version of myself returning home has lost many memories, the feeling of nostalgia is still fresh. This is the place where I met Youxiang, did the gods hear my wish?
Because there always seems to be a mysterious force driving me towards a clear direction, whether it is the grace of the gods or a mockery, I do not know.
"Have you finally realized the existence of this god?"
A vast black curtain covered my vision, not allowing any light to shine through. These... I looked around, was it the work of that loli god again?
"You really don't give up, is it a god's duty to amuse oneself with my life?"
"..."
"Answer me!"
"All I can tell you is to continue walking along this path, and one day you will find the answer."
Her voice was still as mysterious as before, but from what she said, it seems like she still can't tell me why I have to do this?
"How cliché."
"Hehe, I'm looking forward to the next part of the story!" The goddess (she's nuts) didn't even let me finish speaking before she left, leaving me alone in the ethereal city.
"Wait, come back..."
Another quick farewell, at least now my choices will directly lead to the ultimate goal I desire.
"Oops!"
I suddenly reflexively rolled off the bed, the glaring sunlight of the real world took me a while to adjust. I fell on... on Youxiang's white... pants.
"Ah!"
I closed my eyes and laughed awkwardly twice. When I opened my eyes, Youxiang's expression immediately went from surprise to slight annoyance.
"Why do you have such a disappointed look on your face? Do you hate me that much, or..."
"Or?"
"I brought you disappointment because I'm not wearing white panties?"
Pan... panties?! Thankfully, I haven't had breakfast yet, otherwise I would have been so scared that I would have vomited yesterday's dinner. Yesterday's midnight snack was the delicious grilled fish that my grandmother worked hard to make, I don't want to waste it all like this!
Just when I wasn't paying attention, a soft touch came from my elbow. Youxiang grabbed my arm and pulled me up from the floor with force.
"We're already in high school but you're still so sloppy, how can this be... ahh!"
Youxiang accidentally stepped on the scattered bedsheet on the floor and stumbled towards me.
"Why are you so clumsy on your own feet...hehe."
Youxiang's top was instantly brushed open, and her bra, the same color as her panties, was fully exposed in front of me. But she seemed completely unaware.
"Why are you laughing?"
"That thing of yours..." I tactfully covered my eyes and pointed at her chest, she also lowered her head to look at her disheveled top.
"Ah ah ah ah!"
Smack! Smack! (Why twice?)
And, why is it my fault again? The left side of my face is clearly much bigger than the right side, she didn't even apologize, but turned her head, snorted, and walked out alone.
"Is this all we're having for breakfast?"
My entire left cheek is swollen like this, I wonder what Grandma would say if she saw me... Ding ding ding ding! Just then, the phone rang, interrupting my thoughts. I picked it up and saw that it was Yuanhui calling.
I immediately straightened myself up and said seriously, "Hello, have you gathered any information?"
"The latest news," Yuanhui said on the other end of the line. "After three days, an armored patrol team will enter the central headquarters of Ilena from the North Station. We can hide in the back carriages of the transfer station at that time."
I briefly considered this plan and realized that although Grandma had a pass, it wouldn't be feasible for her to carry out such a dangerous mission at her age.
"Well, it seems like that's our only option."
"Our first task is to reach and capture the North Station within three days, provided that the enemy hasn't raised any alarms," Yuanhui explained in detail.
Yu Nai then explained the mission objective to us: "The main purpose of this operation to Ilena headquarters is not just to rescue Edward, but to steal a sample of the Archangel Project. Only then can we stop this deadly plan!"
(Two and a half days later)
"Swoosh!" Taking advantage of the moonless night, I silently slipped into the darkness and threw a powder at the guards' faces in a moment of distraction.
Yu Nai and I split into two teams and infiltrated the area, leaving two soldiers outside the fence still waking up groggily from the effects of the powder.
Boom boom boom...
From the thick clouds in the sky, occasional muffled thunder sounds could be heard. It would be even better if a thunderstorm came down.
Crash!
"Well, dreams do come true," I whispered into the wireless phone. "The enemy's current visibility is limited, Yuanhui!"
"Roger, please give the order."
"Go left, I'll go from the back," I prepared myself (rubbing my hands together) and approached a guard yawning on the stairs. There was another guard smoking to his left. "When I activate the signal wave, we strike simultaneously!"
"What... Uh!"
Before my target could even make a sound, I grabbed him by the neck and choked him to death with a wire.
"Now, for the three in the room, use the space isolation device!"
I pointed to the ground in front of the entrance, "Put it there and throw a grenade!"
"Hoo hoo hoo..."
The enemies in the room seemed to sense something unusual when the space isolation kicked in, but it was too late!
"..."
The explosion of the grenade instantly shattered everything in the room, displaying its maximum power in such a confined space. Only a few incomplete limbs remained!
Now that I had dealt with this, I could connect with Yu Nai through the line. "The enemy has been cleared from the central station, any new developments on your end, Yu Nai?"
"Captain, the guards at the entrance to the transfer station are currently quiet. The convoy is expected to arrive in three minutes... Over!"
"Very well, bring Yuka in and make sure she sticks close. If the enemy detects our plan, it'll be ruined!"
"Understood!"
So far, everything was going according to plan. Now it was time for the climax of our plan.
"Yu Nai and Chiba, change into the guards' uniform and get ready to greet the convoy!"
"Haha, you must be joking with us," Yu Nai couldn't understand why they had to wear men's clothing, but Chiba had already confidently stripped down and was left with just a helmet.
"Hurry up and change, no more nonsense!" I impatiently urged her. "Your..."
"Just let Yu Nai go with you," Yuanhui said, putting on her military uniform and pushing Yu Nai towards me.
"Hehe, it's really great to work with girls who have big chests, isn't it?"
He jokingly said it, but still wanted to reach out and put his arm around Qianye's shoulder.
Puff——!
Qianye, without any expression on her face, delivered a powerful kick to his groin. Yuanhui fell to the ground in pain, rolling around.
"Quiet down!" Yu Nai angrily punched Yuanhui again. "Hide. As soon as they stop, we'll climb onto the back of the vehicle!"
Buzzing...
A number of armored vehicles gradually approached the transit station from a distance. The guards at the entrance started to open the protective barriers, ready to let them in.
"Irena Special Operations Team, a total of four armored vehicles."
Yuanhui and the others informed us through the bushes, "When Ren attracts our attention, you must seize the opportunity to crawl into the rear trunk of the last armored vehicle!"
"Three automatic turrets have been installed on the fence!"
"Checking!"
People from the vehicle called Yuanhui over to inspect it.
"Thanks, brother. Night duty at the transit station is hard work too!"
"Not hard. Alright, the car is fine, it just needs to be..."
Subconsciously, Yuanhui touched the alarm button instead of the energy chamber button, opening fire—!!
Bullets immediately rained down from the outside through the fence. The two guards at the entrance quickly took cover behind the defense wall to avoid the bullets. Yuanhui had already taken cover with the soldiers on the vehicle's front, giving us a chance to crawl into the trunk at the back.
A muscular man in the convoy carried an electromagnetic railgun and aimed it at the direction of the bullet fire. In an instant, all three machine gun turrets outside the gate were wiped out.
"Everyone, search for any movements outside the gate," the muscular man was apparently the captain, commanding the others to quickly search for signs of the ambush, while comforting Yuanhui, "Lock all the main gates. We will dispatch reinforcements as soon as we return to headquarters!"
"Is that so?"
Yuanhui pretended pitifully and worshipped, "Then, brother, send more people to take over our shifts."
"Everyone, get in the vehicles and retreat quickly!"
At this moment, the three of us were tightly pressed against the back of the armored vehicle's trunk, trying not to make any loud noise. Along the way, Youxiang suddenly wanted to cough but I tightly covered her mouth, preventing her from coughing.
"We are almost there—District 51 Headquarters of Irena!"
The excited voices of the people in the vehicle were enough to feel the impact of the most powerful army in the world on them! And we also learned that Irena... was already here.
