"I have also discussed this matter with His Majesty the King. Come to my office later. I have a document to show you." Lionel said calmly, "After reading it, you will understand why I must do this."
Hen stared at Lionel for a long time before he said, "Sir Lionel, what do you want? Or, what is the belief you are loyal to?"
"Of course it's Mu Continent." Lionel replied firmly.
However, he said in his heart: "And the survival of human civilization."
He is not a fool. After experiencing Beffinger's betrayal, even though he is now trusted by the king, he must be careful in handling many things and in his own words and deeds...
"Mu Continent is the central country among all the nations on Earth and the pinnacle of human civilization and technology. Facing the great threat to human civilization, we should stand up and serve as a shield for the human race all over the world. And everything... is for the survival of human civilization!"
Hen didn't say anything else. He could only guess that the next document he was going to see would be related to Mu Dalu's abnormal behavior during this period, and he could only decide what to do after seeing the document.
But no matter what, now that things have come to a foregone conclusion, no matter what he will face next, he must protect his wife and daughter, and he must stabilize the relationship between the Fire Moth and Mu Continent, even if the two sides have already broken up.
Humanity...can no longer withstand internal friction.
Everything is for the survival of civilization!
There is a medical skills test tomorrow, and I am busy reviewing surgical procedures, suturing, aseptic techniques and other operations tonight.
In addition, I have to explain that our exams are completed one by one. I will also finish a Chinese medicine course later, and our exam week is in early July.
ps: Kiana: About that Lionel...
Zhu Yufeng: He is also a hero.
Kiana: Huh?
Zhu Yufeng: When the destined end comes, someone must... pull the trigger on me.
Chapter 260: Do you understand the value of one body with one heart?
"Hen and Blanca both hold important positions in Mu Continent?" Desdobia said in surprise, "Then... who will take care of Grayshu? I remember her grandparents and her great-grandparents all died quite early, so who will take care of her?"
"The news from Mu Continent is that while Hen and Blanca are busy, Greshu will be taken care of by the Lionel family for the time being." Zhu Yufeng looked down at the hot coffee in his hand and said, "In addition, Lionel allowed Blanca to take more vacation time...but Blanca couldn't refuse the position. So it is basically clear that Lionel forced Greshu's family to be under his control or surveillance for some purpose."
"That guy is going too far!" Desdobia said indignantly, "Graysh is so young, what on earth does he want to do! If he is still chasing the fire moth, I will definitely use my telekinesis to stab him to death with a fork!"
"...But, you have just demonstrated this ability. If I remember correctly, you cannot fully utilize it now, right?" Kosmo, who had been silent after receiving the message, raised his eyes and said.
When he said this, he did not look at Desdobia, but at Zhu Yufeng who had been looking at the coffee. He really wanted to know what Zhu Yufeng was thinking. After all, Grayshu was a child that all the heroes took good care of, and he and Feng were particularly concerned about her growth and care.
Although he knew that Grayshu's mental age was already that of a young girl, Kosmo was still extremely worried about Grayshu's future growth environment. In addition, he also wanted to know what Zhu Yufeng was going to do regarding the subsequent Ninth Herrscher incident.
As for what Zhu Yufeng said about Lionel tying Hen's family to his warship and putting them under his control, Kosmo could more or less guess why.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see from Mu Dalu's recent actions that he is planning to part ways with the Fire Moth.
Therefore, it is obvious that Lionel did this to guard against the Fire Moth. Now the person with the most say in the Fire Moth is undoubtedly Mobius, and Mobius is a key target of special vigilance in Mu Continent... In addition, Feng, who is one of the two most popular warrior leaders of the Fire Moth, also takes good care of Grayshu. Therefore, Lionel is trying to "threaten" the Fire Moth in this way.
In other words, the Hen family can almost be regarded as hostages in Mu Continent.
"Amo, can't you give me some face..." Desdobia was about to pinch Kosmo hard, but she found that Kosmo's face looked very ugly. She immediately thought that it would be difficult or even impossible for Kosmo to just watch Grayshu fall into trouble.
So Destobia didn't say anything more.
"Don't worry, at least Lionel is much more sober than most people in Mu Continent." Lilith picked up the coffee cup and took a sip. "He just needs the Hen family to form a subtle restraining effect on the Fire Moth. After all, when the contradictions of humans cannot be reconciled, if there is no such restriction in the middle, then things will inevitably turn into a violent conflict in the end. Moreover, the jobs he arranged for Hen and Blanca are real positions with a say, so he just wants to send a signal to Mobius. No matter how much the Mu Continent dislikes the Fire Moth, as long as he is there, he will not let the two sides fight."
"That's certainly something that guy could do..." Desdobia held her forehead with her hand, "But why? Have we failed to do anything well so far? We have always been at the forefront in the fight against Honkai, and they just say we're going our separate ways?"
Zhu Yufeng just drank his coffee in silence.
Alicia glanced at Zhu Yufeng and couldn't help but remind him, "Feng, you've been drinking too much coffee recently, and your sleep time is too short."
"I'm afraid it's because Feng's inner state is also quite unstable." Lilith said lightly, "After all, whenever he is worried, he either practices unlimitedly or drinks coffee and stays up late to think about life..."
Although people drank coffee in the past, there was also the factor that Mobius's medicine had not been fully developed, and the side effects of the fusion warriors were so painful that they couldn't sleep, so they drank it to refresh themselves.
Zhu Yufeng raised his head, looked at Alysia's worried eyes, then looked at Kosmo and said, "Now that things have come to this, we can't rush to Mu Continent to snatch back Grayshu. Beffinger has also guaranteed Lionel's character. He won't go against a child. He just... needs a limit to stabilize the Fire Moth and prevent it from breaking up with Mu Continent. This is the reason he gave himself and the reason he gave to the king."
"If that person wasn't Grace, you wouldn't be so worried until now." Lilith rolled her eyes. Didn't she know Feng? Was there anyone in the world who knew Feng better than she did? To be frank, even if Feng's biological mother came, she wouldn't know Feng as well as she did.
Do you understand the value of having one heart and one body?
Alicia shifted her gaze to Lilith, she knew about the World Serpents, although most of what the World Serpents were doing would not be told to her...if she asked Feng, she probably wouldn't get anything out of him. At the same time, there were some things Alicia knew it was better for her not to know. Besides, the main managers of the World Serpents were now Mebius and Lilith, and Feng himself was not clear about some of the things.
Knowing the existence of the World Serpent, Alicia also understood that Mu Continent was not worried about the Fire Moth. After all, Lionel had been in charge of the Fire Moth before. What they were really wary of was the World Serpent hidden in the darkness who continued to have the final say in the Fire Moth.
Judging from the current situation and Alicia's understanding of Zhu Yufeng, if Mu Dalu lags behind in the next action, Zhu Yufeng will most likely regard him as abandonable and choose to stand idly by and do nothing about the Ninth Herrscher incident - except bringing Hen's family back.
But if you ask Alicia what she thinks, she can only say that she will try her best to save him, but if the Mu Continent refuses to share information and insists on fighting the Ninth Herrscher alone like in the previous life, then... she can only say that she is powerless.
"If that day comes and I still leave like before, what will you do, Feng?"
"My choice will not change at all, but you, Alysia, if..."
"what if?"
"Forget it, it's nothing."
The "if" that Zhu Yufeng hadn't said before, the "if" that he chose to remain silent no matter how much she asked him afterwards... She actually already had the answer in her heart.
If humans cannot transcend the end, if it finally comes to that, as the only person in that battle who can force an even fight with the end, his final demise is almost certain.
She once again thought of what Abonya had concealed from her. No matter how much she tried to hypnotize herself, it might not be related to Feng, but what if? What if what Abonya had concealed was Feng's unchangeable future?
Now, can she still watch him leave again?
Alicia suddenly recalled the conversation between her and Kevin: "If one day, you can save most people by just pulling the trigger, Kevin, what will you choose?"
Ai Lishiya, what will you choose?
"At least, Lionel can be trusted." Alicia drank a sip of milk tea in silence, thinking to herself, "Now... we can only take it one step at a time, right? As long as Lionel can stabilize the situation in Mu Continent... As for Greyshu, whether it is Feng or Mebius, it is impossible for them to do nothing. Maybe... some gray snake has already lurked there."
Lionel's behavior, after all, is that he feels confident in himself, but he is not sure whether Mebius will turn the table over. Similarly, Mebius feels that there is no need to turn the table over unless it is absolutely necessary, but he is worried about Lionel.
After all, although what is happening now is generally consistent with the previous life, there are many differences...Grayshu is still only an 8-year-old child, let alone a fusion warrior. No one will feel at ease if she is not under everyone's sight, especially since Mu Dalu did some dishonest things in the previous life.
"Don't be so depressed. It's useless to sit here and think too much. You might as well think of something else." Lilith raised a finger and said with a smile to Zhu Yufeng, "For example, Wei Erwei and I have a 'big gift' for you, Feng~"
Alicia's eyelids jumped. Velvet! And Lilith! When did they cooperate... Well, Velvet had started cooperating with Lilith a long time ago, which was not surprising to her, but the key point was that these two people conspired to give Feng a "big gift"? The evil personality had a history of deceiving other personalities and trying to anesthetize Feng, not to mention Lilith. Not to mention that she had to watch her in reality, she also had to worry about what shocking things Lilith would do in her dreams at night...
Regarding the power of the Eighth Herrscher possessed by Lilith, Lilith came to her before the Fallen Angels team building that day and laid it all out with her. To put it simply, she had devoured the power of the Eighth Herrscher, and as long as she didn't die, the Eighth Herrscher core on Mebius' side could still be used normally, and she didn't have to worry about what she did to Feng in her dreams at night, because she had no way of getting rid of herself.
The reason why she made a Herrscher core with her bare hands was largely due to the special nature of the Eighth Herrscher itself. The recycling method of the Eighth Herrscher's core was different from that of other Herrschers. Lilith also emphasized at the time that the Herrscher of Consciousness of the next civilization would also be able to rub the Key of God by hand.
"So, now you are willing to believe that we are sisters to some extent?" Lilith said jokingly, "Even if I absorbed the power of the Eighth Herrscher, I still couldn't completely isolate you from the dream in the end."
I just... I have to admit that maybe what she said does make some sense...
As for why I didn't tell Mebius about Lilith, it was also related to Lilith's subsequent explanation...
Ahem, in short, Alicia said that the things that Lilith and Velvet created together must not be taken lightly.
Zhu Yufeng tilted his head. A "big gift"? What the hell is that?
Lilith leaned over to his ear and whispered a few words, and then she did not forget to blow gently into his earlobe...
Desdobia blinked, then took out a booklet and started writing.
Kosmo: “?”
Destobia...are you trying to learn from Lilith? No, you can't learn it, and I can't stand it even if you do!
When Zhu Yufeng heard the so-called "great gift" mentioned by Lilith, his eyes twitched violently, and then he looked at Lilith in disbelief, wanting to confirm that he had not heard wrongly, but Lilith just shrugged and said, "What's so surprising about this?"
Zhu Yufeng: “…”
What's so surprising about this? Why don't you tell me again what you and Wei Erwei have planned? Are you really going to build the Tian Ting?
"This... is not, I..." Zhu Yufeng took a deep breath, then calmed down and looked at Lilith and whispered, "Why did you think of doing this?"
"Didn't we only build five of these because of the industrial system?" Lilith said with a chuckle. "Now that we have the conditions, do you really think we can't build them? Besides... the God-killing Weapon, isn't that what we need for the final battle?"
Zhu Yufeng: “…”
So, just like my Honkai Beast that is still roaming in outer space, it is actually just a jerk, right? It looks like the Thunder, but it is actually the Moonlight Throne Launcher...
So, does that mean that the industrial system established by the World Serpent in other continents can already produce Moonlight Thrones? If there are enough Moonlight Thrones, the chances of winning the battle with the End will be much greater... But it can only be said that the chances of winning have increased. The nature of the End is different from what everyone has speculated. The Moonlight Throne can only consume Him, but cannot kill Him.
But putting that aside, that was the Tianting, a Gundam! I had wanted to build it in my previous life, but because Mu Continent had sunk and the remaining industrial system couldn't make it at all.
And no matter what, it won’t be worse than the 99% God-father of the next civilization.
Alicia silently took another sip of milk tea. It was rare to see Feng like this. So, the so-called "gift" prepared by Lilith and the others was the kind that Feng particularly liked? It wouldn't be a giant robot, right? Most boys seemed to like this kind of thing, and a long time ago, Weiwei also mentioned that Feng wanted to build a big robot...
I couldn't help but fall into deep thought when I saw that I had already reached the 30th leave request. However, the conflict in time was not easy to arrange. Although I knew that I had an internship this afternoon, I only found out in the morning that I had to go to a hospital dozens of kilometers away for internship (about half of my internships had to travel this far), and I had to take the highway...
Then, didn’t the last leave note say that the Traditional Chinese Medicine course was over? Yes, the final exam is tomorrow morning, and it’s a closed-book exam... As a clinical student, I’m overwhelmed looking at the Traditional Chinese Medicine system, which is almost completely different.
Then why are there no drafts saved?
Good question, I would like to know too (×)
I should have time to update later during the Dragon Boat Festival. There will be a chapter about the current civilization related to Cecilia.
Above, red bean paste private Marseille!
Chapter 261: Retreat
Mu Continent.
"Lovko was transferred from Mebius' laboratory?" Lionel fell into deep thought as he looked at the information sent back by Mu Continent's intelligence personnel in the Fire Moth.
Although Mu Dalu and the Fire Moth can basically be regarded as parted ways now, under the deliberate control of him, Mebius and others, as well as the two sides' original similar ideas of fighting against Honkai, no big noise has been made for the time being. Both sides have also reached a consensus on the control of information about Honkai among the general public.
Originally, Mu Continent was planning to continue keeping the secret, but the Fire Moth believed that the frequency of the collapse was increasing and the level was getting higher and higher, so there was no need to cover it up anymore. Continuing to cover it up would only exacerbate the unrest among the people and be exploited by some people with ulterior motives.
Lionel agreed with this point, but before the king spoke, Lionel chose to remain silent. If he spoke first, coupled with the fact that before the Fire Moth and Mu Continent broke up, he had offended many high-ranking court officials with his tough attitude in supporting the Fire Moth. If he stood up at this time and agreed with the Fire Moth, he would be exploited.
Lionel believes that he has nothing to regret and has done nothing wrong to Mu Dalu, but both his fiancée Yanar and his father came to him when he took over as the top leader of Mu Dalu's Honkai Organization and asked him to pay more attention to his words and actions in the future.
His identity is extremely sensitive, so sensitive that even if the king trusts him now, he cannot test the king's bottom line because of the betrayal of Beffinger before. He cannot step down because stepping down means completely losing the king's trust. It is still unknown whether the next successor has the same ideas as himself. Having lost the king's trust, he will never have the opportunity to interfere again.
Earlier, Lionel wanted to ask Beffinger what he thought more than once, but he soon realized that Beffinger had run away, and because of his family background, he could not leave the "spider web" of the Mu Continent Palace.
Family is both a help and a shackle for him.
"But someone always has to stand up," Lionel thought.
As for the control of information, the two sides finally discussed and decided to partially disclose information about the Honkai to the public, and also partially disclose their achievements so far in the fight against Honkai. Now the majesty of Mu Continent is still there, and people have not lost hope for the future. So even if there are still people who try to stir up some trouble in the process, they are nothing more than jumping clowns and will soon be cleaned up by the Fire Moth and Mu Continent.
The current situation is that a delicate balance is maintained between Mu Continent and the Fire Moth. Both sides have undercover agents spying on the other side to obtain the most basic intelligence, such as personnel transfers, changes in experimental projects, etc., and they have also taken complete protection measures for things involving the research secrets of both parties.
After he withdrew from the Fire Moth, Beffinger became the commissioner of Mu Continent to the Fire Moth. The development of things did not surprise Lionel and the king, because Beffinger had long been on the side of Mebius. After Lionel left, under the operation of Beffinger, all the parliamentarians who originally belonged to Lionel's faction were squeezed to the edge of power one by one. It can be said that the World Serpent has now almost completely taken over the top management of the Fire Moth.
It has been speculated that the World Snake has top hacker and killer organizations under it. In order to prevent its own confidential information from being leaked, some experiments conducted by Mu Continent all use the independent network developed by Mu Continent itself. Similarly, the World Snake also has an independent special network.
While both sides were fighting against Honkai, they were also keeping a close eye on each other's movements.
For example, now, Lionel has seen the job changes regarding Rovco.
The message sent back said that Lofko had been transferred from Mobius' laboratory, and his destination was not the Spiral Workshop where Velvi was, but the European branch of the Fire Moth, the research institute under the jurisdiction of Admiller. It was unclear what position he held.
According to the information sent back by Mu Continent's secret agents in Europe, the Fire Moths should be researching some large weapons in the European branch. They have a large amount of resources mobilized there, but no one knows what they are going to do.
"After all...if Loveko was the person in charge of that project, her expertise would be mechanical dynamics, which would also explain her job transfer." Lionel thought.
In fact, the World Serpent does not completely control the entire Fire Moth. First of all, in Lionel's mind, May has been ruled out as a possible high-level figure in the World Serpent, because May's research path had parted ways with Mebius long before he left the Fire Moth. The most possibility of cooperation between them is possible.
In addition, Sipasi, the director of the Fifth Institute of the European branch of the Fire Moth, should not be one of them. The former director of the Fifth Institute, Su, was transferred to the headquarters of the Fire Moth shortly after he was transferred back to Mu Continent, and worked under Mei. The experimental project seemed to have been taken over from Yadmiller.
Lionel only knew that the name of the project was "The Stigmata Project", but he had no idea what the "Stigmata Project" was, and Mu Continent had not yet received any relevant information.
In addition to the Stigmata Project, the Fire Moths are currently carrying out other plans such as the "Chimera" Project, the "Eternal Sand" Project, or the "Ark" Project and the "Spark" Project. These are all secret plans, and the progress of each plan is kept highly confidential.
Lionel knew about the Chimera Project, which was also being studied by Mu Continent. It could basically be considered an advanced version of the Fusion Warrior Project, which was based on the Fusion Warriors and constantly fused new Honkai Beasts. But so far, Mu Continent had not made any effective progress. As far as Lionel knew, Kevin seemed to be the only candidate on the Fire Moth side to execute the Chimera Project.
At least on the surface there is only Kevin.
For some reason, Feng did not seem to carry out this plan... After much thought, Lionel could only explain that the Chimera Project was the project that Mei was in charge of, and Mebius had a strong possessiveness over his research subjects, let alone Feng, so it was not impossible that he did not carry out the Chimera Project.
Lionel had heard of the Hengsha Project long before he left the Fire Moth. He heard that it was necessary to use the Second God's Key to observe something. The Second God's Key Thousand Worlds One was the core of the Hengsha Project, but Lionel had no idea what the Hengsha Project was observing.
