Oh no, I have become a character in the card pool?

Chapter 118 The Mysterious Chief
It is said that times make heroes.

The early days of the war era were the most difficult and desperate times for the entire human civilization.

In the past, humans have pursued values ​​throughout their lives, whether it was academics, work, social status, or wealth and power.

It is as fragile as glass in the face of the massive invasion of broken entities.

Clang.

When people died, cities collapsed, wails and roars filled the once peaceful and prosperous streets, and the entire society turned into the most efficient machine.

Everything is for victory, everything is for the continuation of civilization.

under these circumstances.

[Chief] has become a symbol.

It symbolizes the wise man standing at the top of the pyramid among the elites based on human civilization in an era when the only thing they wanted was to survive.

According to rumors, the "original Spirit Contract Envoy" was also invited by the Alliance to become the chief, but he declined the invitation in the end to focus on fighting on the front lines.

This is also the only rumor about the candidate for the chief position that is widely known to the outside world.

Because the person who takes this position later, regardless of age, voice, gender, age, preferences, or even life or death
All of them are confidential matters of the highest level.

This position is too important.

Whether it was a traitor among humans or the need to guard against the decapitation tactics that might be carried out by the lives in the "broken time and space", this position was full of danger.

The specific selection mechanism is unknown.

The chief may die silently, but the next one will immediately take his place. If this one dies again, the next one it chooses will take over.

Until the war is won.

And this tradition continues even in the Broken Age.

Regardless of whether it is Qi Ling's idol promotion plan or the major broken time and space war zones today, no matter how badly they are beaten, none of them has been completely destroyed.

The importance of the Chief to the alliance and the key decision-making he has made on many occasions are unquestionable.

"."

Mu Yuqing had looked at the mirror for the seventh time, checking whether her spirit contract envoy uniform fit her properly and whether her dark circles under her eyes from days of exposure had been well covered with foundation.

Until the very last second of the timer, she was making sure she would not make any faux pas.

drip.

Following the signal from the communicator, the young woman walked into the sealed-off private room with a little nervousness under the instructions of the alliance staff.

The moment I stepped into this room.

Countless symbols rose from the surroundings, and the intertwining lights between the machines turned into tens of millions of flashing electronic signals.

——This is the power of an epic spirit from the [Intelligent Machinery Kingdom]. It can use independent mechanical devices to allow signals to communicate across war zones.

It was not like the telegram code that Mu Yuqing had typed before, which required various encryption processes.

It can even perform direct video conversations.

However, because it is a miraculous creation of power, Qi Ling himself cannot produce too many, and each time he needs to consume a large amount of ether.

Therefore, it is impossible to mass-produce and distribute it to each war zone. It will only be opened and used by each war zone when the order is directly transmitted from the alliance headquarters.

Mu Yuqing took a calm, deep breath.

Her consciousness was connected to the signal space, which was the unique spiritual cloud network of [Broken Spacetime·Intelligent Law Machinery Country], similar to a VR full immersion game.

Now she can only "log in" to the war zones of different laws by relying on the power of the spirit contract.

The first time she entered this space, to Mu Yuqing's surprise, she saw the sun as soon as she looked up.

"here it is"

The woman turned around and looked around in confusion.

There is a lawn, a fountain, a school building in the distance, and a building for students.

She was a little confused.

Isn't this the single dormitory she was assigned to when she was still studying at the Alliance Headquarters!?

If Mu Yuqing hadn't looked down and saw that the size of her chest that was pushing up her uniform had not disappeared, she would have almost suspected that she had traveled back to high school.

"Sorry, don't you like this view?" At this time, a calm and gentle voice sounded not far from her.

"Because I want you to relax, I chose a background map that I think you will be more familiar with. If you don't like it, do you want to change it?"

"You are the Chief?"

Mu Yuqing looked in the direction where the voice came from, and saw a human figure in silver armor sitting next to the afternoon tea table.

The voice had no gender, no age, and no specific tone. It came out through the vibrations in the gaps of the silver armor.

The only thing that could be heard was the friendly tone that was still calm and gentle even after going through so many formalities, which eased Mu Yuqing's tense back.

This chief.

Although they came out of a legend, they seemed like familiar neighbors and did not give people a sense of pressure.

"No, no need, this is fine now!"

Mu Yuqing said flattered, ignoring the pressure of burying herself in the sea of ​​books because of her college background.

Walk to the round table for afternoon tea and sit down.

She couldn't help but look up at the silver-white armor that looked exquisite and complex.

Ever since the "Chief" first appeared in people's vision, it has been wearing this armor made with special power and of extraordinary significance.

This battle armor was also created by Qi Ling.

It can conceal its shape, protect its weaknesses, and change into various forms. It possesses the pinnacle of both attack and defense, and can exert combat power that is no less than epic level.

——It is said that its first owner was the "original spirit master" who passed away a century ago.

After the death of the spirit master, the armor was recovered from the front line by the Alliance.

Later, it became the standard equipment for the chief of the alliance. No matter how many successors the chief was, he would wear this armor that could hide his identity wherever he went.

Mu Yuqing and the silver-white armor sat opposite each other.

Even though she has become the person in charge of multiple war zones, she is now feeling a little uneasy.

"Excuse me, Chief, what are you going to ask me?"

Mu Yuqing spoke cautiously.

"No hurry, have something to drink first." The chief seemed to see the woman's nervousness and gave a gentle smile from under his silver armor.

“Although there is only flavor in this space and you won’t feel full in reality, it’s still a good way to relax.”

As its hand armor passed by.

A cup of warm black tea appeared on the table, steaming in the sunny weather.

“Is black tea the only option?”

"Oh"

Mu Yuqing was about to nod and say that there was no problem, but she noticed that the figure in the silver-white armor suddenly chuckled for some reason.

Its shoulders shrugged slightly, as if it was missing the scene.

"Chief?" Mu Yuqing looked at him in confusion.

“Nothing.” The silver-white armor shook its head and said with a calm smile, “I just remembered an old friend from a long time ago.”

I see. The woman looked at the poured tea thoughtfully.

It seems that the chief and his old friends had once elegantly drank together in such an afternoon tea-like environment.

As expected of the chief! He has great taste!
After she took a sip of black tea.

The silver-white armor spoke in a gentle tone and stated the purpose of its visit.

"I heard that a month ago, you seemed to be the first person to contact him, except for the soul-binding envoy of Lin Xuan, right?"

"Can you tell me a little bit about the person you know him as?"

In the illusion composed of stream of consciousness and full of falsehood, the peaceful sun shines leisurely on the earth.

Like a distant memory.

Full of nostalgia, I had the opportunity to tell others about it again on a quiet afternoon.
