Mecha: Return of the Pioneers

Chapter 771 Target found!

With Salamantini as the vanguard, the group continued to advance and finally arrived at the equipment area that could connect to the internal network of the research institute.

"3 minutes."

After the smart cube Arduino told a time, it immediately jumped off He Ming's shoulder, landed next to the computer equipment next to it, and started its work.

The next second after Chen Jinren, who was following nearby, raised his right fist, all the Dark Arrow members dispersed and quickly secured control of all entrances and exits to the equipment area.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Salamantini, who had been attacking at the front, handed over the task of vigilance to other members of the Dark Arrow Team and returned here.

However, she stood a little further away from He Ming and the others.

Although Salamantini was careful when she attacked, it was a battle between life and death after all. When she swung the sword to kill the enemy, it was inevitable that blood would splatter on her body.

Seeing this, He Ming nodded slightly and took out clean water and a rag from his tactical backpack.

"Please wipe it off for a bit! You've worked so hard."

Salamantini sheathed the sword, took the towel and water, and simply wiped the blood off her face.

"No, this is what I should do. Later, we may have to fight with Embrio's men, so let's go back and deal with it!"

After learning the exact news about Embrio, Salamantini's fighting spirit has been in a relatively high state.

Now he is picking up the sword and charging forward, perhaps because he wants to kill his enemy Embrio again.

He Ming, who knew this, didn't care. Chen Jinren and other members of the Dark Arrow Group, who were used to seeing life and death on the battlefield, would not take it seriously either.

Instead, Lacus Klein and Nicole couldn't help but exchange glances, and both saw confusion in each other's eyes.

How come Salamantini, the low-key female soldier who had always been by He Ming's side, turned into a berserker-like existence in the blink of an eye?
Especially Lacus Klein, who had the most contact with Salamantini, was even more confused.

From her contact with Salamantini, Lacus Klein has realized from Salamantini's past words, deeds, expressions and demeanor that Salamantini is not just a female soldier who silently follows He Ming.

Compared to the soldier, Lacus Clyne, who also grew up like a princess, believed that Salamantini was of noble birth and had experience in commanding subordinates.

Otherwise, how can we explain that in past exchanges, Lux Klein could from time to time feel an aura from Salamantini that was similar to that of her father Siegel Klein and Patrick Sara.

However, despite this feeling, Salamantini showed a completely different and frightening look today.

A long sword,
A startling surprise,
Then you can charge in all directions on the battlefield.

puzzle.

Lacus Klein felt more and more that the fog in front of her eyes did not dissipate, but became heavier.

This is especially true for He Ming, the leader.

What is the name and reason that can make such an outstanding person like Salamantini follow so loyally?

Lacus Klein believed that as long as Salamantini was willing, both the Earth Union and PLANT would be able to form a strong team in a short period of time.

"Sorry! Lux. I hope I didn't scare you."

While Lacus Klein was thinking, Salamantini's voice was heard.

"No. It's okay. Now, it's a battle, isn't it? I understand."

Lux Klein waved her hands repeatedly to show that she was not scared.

"Well! I'm afraid there will be more intense battles next! When the time comes, please follow the colonel closely! I may not be able to take care of you."

"Oh, okay. I get it!"

Three minutes passed in the blink of an eye.

Under the attack of the intelligent cube Arduino, the network firewall of this institute was useless and was successfully breached with a little effort. "Confirm the location of the target. Coordinates, 3rd floor underground of the institute, H1 area. Confirm the identity of the target! Yuri Amalfi, Jack Eric..."

After Adino quickly reported the target's identity in general, Nicol's eyes suddenly revealed a hint of urgency.

"Don't worry! We'll start the action now! Captain Chen! Start making arrangements! Also, please be aware that you may encounter enemies with special abilities. When that happens, please prioritize your own safety and come and join us immediately."

"special power?"

Chen Jinren was slightly surprised, then asked in a low voice.

"Gene adjustment?"

He Ming nodded slowly.

Although there may be some differences in the process, the essence should be similar.

"What are the specific manifestations?"

"Maybe it could be mind reading, maybe it could be able to manipulate other objects and attack. Everything is still just speculation."

He Ming did not make a final statement, but just gave a few examples and also included a description of mind reading.

"Okay! I understand!"

Chen Jinren stopped hesitating and immediately turned around to arrange the action team.

The mission of the Dark Arrow Force is not just to rescue the congressmen, but to collect information, data, and even some equipment that can be taken away from the institute as much as possible.

What was discovered deep in the deserted island has caused East Asian top leaders to feel tremendous pressure.

If the other party uses a method called photocopying to secretly replace the leadership of the country, the consequences will be disastrous.

And it’s not without examples.

According to the known information, Lund Gina Sahak, one of the heirs of the Sahak family of Orb, is the most prominent one among these examples.

Not only was he replaced by the photocopy, he even used Lund Gina Sahak's identity to order an assassination attempt against Cagalli Yula Asha, which ultimately led to Cagalli Yula Asha falling into an abyss from which there was no escape.

In addition to the fact that PLANT and ZAFT have been invaded without knowing it, the East Asian leadership is eager to know if there is any way to crack the existence of the copy man, or to identify the copy man hiding in the dark.

He Ming, who knew something about this, was not surprised. He just waved his hand and called Salamantini, Lacus Klein and Nicole to his side.

"Sarah, you know Embrio so well that I won't remind you."

"Yes! Sir."

Salamantini nodded calmly.

"And Miss Lacus, you must stay with me the whole time, and Nicol will be responsible for covering me and protecting Lacus."

"I can fight."

Lacus Clyne clenched the submachine gun in her hand.

During the time that she served as an orderly, Lacus Klein also underwent relevant technical and tactical training. Coupled with her excellent physique as an adjuster, Lacus Klein can now be considered a qualified soldier.

"I understand. But next, I'm afraid we'll encounter the enemy's special soldiers."

If Eggers, who was tortured by Embrio, was not wrong, then the owner of this research institute would probably be the woman who had a close relationship with the birth of Lacus Clein - Ola Maha Hebel.

Then, the person responsible for guarding this place is most likely Aofei Ram Tao.

The man who regarded Lacus Clyne as his destiny and had a strong sense of fate about it.
