A man in the ark was forced to become a king

1Chapter 16 The Sword that Divides the Earth

"Ceria, Ceria!"

There were slightly chaotic movements from the Defense Department officers outside the office. The door to the general office suddenly opened a crack. A girl with long light green hair squeezed in through the crack in the door. She closed and locked the door with her backhand. The little girl He breathed a sigh of relief.

She shouted, turned her head, and suddenly froze in place.

This, what's the situation?

Mulseth's big eyes were full of doubts, and he slowly turned his gaze to take in the scene in the office.

The commander-in-chief, who was usually quite aloof and even indifferent, was slumped in his chair at the moment, looking at the sky blankly, as if he had been spoiled.

Helmer and another researcher were standing at the door... If I remember correctly, the white-haired researcher Li Boli should be called Joyce?

The two of them stood blankly, like two stupid geese.

Parvis, the director of the Structural Department, lay on the ground like a dead dog, his glasses fell to the side, and he had obviously lost consciousness.

Ceria didn't look very decent, her clothes had some burnt marks, and she was holding Ifrit who seemed to be asleep in her arms, looking up at the sky.

In addition, there is a strange-shaped thing on the floor. It can be vaguely half-human. It seems to be alive?

Anyway, even this strange creature is looking up...

Sky?

Mulseth couldn't understand what was going on, so she subconsciously raised her head, and then her eyes widened. Only then did she realize belatedly that more than half of the ceiling of the general office was missing, and she could see through the gap. Go to the sky covered in black and red colors outside, and the black-armored giant standing in the sky.

? ? ? ?

A series of question marks floated above the elf girl's head, and she almost wondered if she opened the door the wrong way and walked into the wrong set.

Let’s not talk about the inside of the office. What the hell is that thing outside?Is this really still the world she is familiar with?

No matter how you look at it, that kind of thing is beyond the scope of what Originium technology can explain!

No wonder she felt something was not right in the atmosphere on the way over. It turned out that this was the problem.

What happened and what did she miss?

"Mulseth, what are you doing here?"

Hearing the voice of an acquaintance, Ceria came back to her senses and turned to look at her colleague who looked confused.

"I heard there was a big commotion here in the office, and I was worried... so I wanted to come over and have a look. What's going on?"

Mulseth raised his head and looked at the magical scene outside, lowering his voice and asking in a low voice.

"The one outside is the Demon King of Kazdel, the king of all Sakaz. She discovered the experiment of Rhine Life and was very angry."

"Yes, is that so?"

After listening to Seria's brief explanation, Mulseth always felt that a lot of information was omitted in this sentence. She had just ran out of the analysis room of the Ecology Department. Thanks to the strict closed environment there, the changes in the outside world and The sound was not transmitted there, so she could only rely on guesswork and analyze it by herself based on Seria's explanation and the situation at the scene.

The Demon King of Kazdaele, the Experiment of Rhine Life...

Sure enough, her guess was correct.

The so-called treatment plan of the Structural Department is essentially the same human experiment as Hayden Pharmaceutical!

They were not treating Ifrit at all, they were just using her as a test subject. In the process, many people were blinded by false news.

Including him, Ceria, and... Hemo, the researcher responsible for the treatment.

"Then, what does His Majesty the Demon King want to do?"

After thinking for a moment, Mulseth felt something was wrong more and more. The ground beneath his feet seemed to be shaking slightly. Considering the situation outside, this was obviously very abnormal.

"The Security and Defense Committee of Tremont City activated the city defense artillery to attack the demon king. It did not work, but instead angered her."

"Now, they should be planning to use more drastic measures, such as isolating the urban area where we are, and then covering the area with indiscriminate firepower."

"What? They're crazy!"

Hearing Seria's explanation, Mulseth was dumbfounded.

She never imagined that things would be so serious.

Separating city blocks and covering them with indiscriminate firepower, those politicians who have nothing to do with their corpses plan to bury everyone in the entire city here?

Don't they know how much public opinion they will face when they do this?

Once this kind of thing is exposed, the political life of all relevant personnel will basically come to an end, and there will also be legal liability. They may even be arrested by Colombian senior officials and sentenced to death. How dare they do this? !

But the facts were all before her eyes, and the trembling under her feet became more and more clear, and she couldn't tolerate disbelief.

"Then what should we do now? Can I follow you?"

Confused thoughts flashed through his mind, and Mulseth did not ask, 'Why are you still here. Questions like "Why don't you think of a way to escape quickly?"

She is a smart person, and sizing up situations is what she is good at.

Ceria knew what was going to happen, but she still stood here and looked calm, which meant that she must have a way to avoid this attack.

Otherwise, with her character, she would never be able to sit still and wait for death.

In this case, of course it would be safer to follow these people.

The entire mobile city is covered with firepower. Unless you jump off the detached block as quickly as possible, the chance of survival is really slim. Even if you hide underground, you may be bombarded and the deformed structure will be squeezed inside. .

Relying on himself alone, Mulseth had no confidence that he could deal with a disaster more terrifying than the natural disaster.

When a natural disaster strikes, at least there is a place to hide. If you are lucky, you will at most be infected with ore disease.

But standing on a mobile city block that was about to be destroyed, there was no way to hide.

"Mulseth, are you an insider?"

Seria didn't answer whether it was okay or not, but asked back, which made Mulseth stunned.

"What insider?"

"The so-called chimerism therapy of the Structural Department is essentially a human experiment called the 'Balrog Project'. They are trying to implant fragments of the Balrog clan in the Kazdaele Palace into Ifrit's body to create a controllable super infection. Sir, this plan has the signatures of all the senior personnel of Rheinland Life including me, and you also have a copy."

"So, do you know?"

"Of course I don't know!"

Mulseth quickly reacted and immediately denied it, looking at Ceria with a pitiful expression, his big eyes as if water might fall at any time.

"You don't know, how could I know? If I knew about this, would I still investigate Hayden Pharmaceuticals with you? Isn't that asking for trouble?"

"Since it has your signature on it, they can naturally use the same method against you to get my signature. I have no idea about this matter!"

In this case, even if you really know it, you can't say it!

What's more, she really didn't know. She had never even heard of the so-called Balrog Plan and had no impression of it at all.

In this matter, she was really wronged!

"This time, I can trust you."

If it were before, Seria would definitely question this woman who always told lies. However, in the investigation of Haydn Pharmaceuticals, Mulseth did a lot of efforts and gained a lot of goodwill.

As said, if she was an insider and participant in the Balrog Plan, there was no need to investigate Hayden Pharmaceuticals.

"Mr. Lin, you..."

She turned around hesitantly, but was interrupted by Lin Lu just as she opened her mouth. It was only then that Mulseth saw there was another person over there. Ceria happened to have blocked her vision before, so she didn't notice it.

It seems that Seria seems to have great respect for this Mr. Lin?

This is a rare thing...

"It's okay, Ceria, we welcome all capable talents to join, this...Miss Muirseth? Are you interested in changing your job?"

Lin Lu looked at the short girl with interest, with a faint golden light in her eyes.

He could see that this girl who looked like Li Boli had a life essence far beyond that of everyone present. That small body contained amazing vitality. Even Seria was a big difference compared to her. cut.

There is no doubt that this is also a talent.

Rhine's life is really a big treasure house, and there are always people who make him shine.

"Changing places to work?"

Mulseth rolled his eyes and glanced quietly at Parvis lying on the ground, then at the governor who was slumped on the chair, as if he had suffered a major blow, and then at the black-red sky and giants outside. , I had an idea in my mind.

Regardless of whether the people in the Tremont Security Defense Committee were crazy or not, the next attack would not be fake.

The entire city, including the Rhine Life headquarters, will suffer a devastating blow. Even if the Rhine Life headquarters is not blown up on the spot, it will still have to face the accountability of His Majesty the Demon King.

In other words, they are finished.

No matter how things end today, the outcome of Rhine's life is already determined.

So... isn't it possible to work somewhere else?

The reason why she came to Rheinland Life was for the good scientific research environment and the top scientific research equipment in the industry. She had no feelings for the company itself.

If there were other choices, it would be the same wherever we go.

As the saying goes, a good bird chooses a tree to roost on, so there is no need for her to cling to the dying tree of Rhine life.

And judging from Seria's appearance, she should have agreed to Mr. Lin's invitation.

"Yeah!"

Various calculations flashed through his mind, and Mulseth no longer hesitated and quickly made a choice.

She smiled and leaned forward, trying to bypass Ceria and run to her new boss, but Ceria pinched her collar and was unable to move forward.

"Mulseth has been wandering for half his life, only regretting that he has never met his master. Well, what should I say next..."

"Okay, okay, where did you learn that?"

Seeing her playing tricks there, with her invisible appearance, Lin Lu had a preliminary understanding of her new employee.

To a certain extent, she might have a lot in common with Nian.

"Hey! According to Yan Guo's words, boss, you are from Yan Guo, right?"

Mulseth tilted his head, stuck out his tongue in a cute way, and immediately turned his head again. The expression on his face made a 180-degree turn, and he bared his teeth and claws at Ceria.

"Hey, hey, let me go!"

"This is an unlucky thing to say, don't say it nonsense."

Lin Lu didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She waved her hands and looked at the sky outside, with a serious expression on her face.

"coming."

In fact, he didn't need to say anything. Everyone present could see the scene outside and hear the huge roar in the distance. It was the sound of the city defense main gun being activated at maximum power.

Different from the previous time, this time the shells flew across the sky, carrying blazing tail flames, like dozens of meteors falling at the same time, and the deafening explosions could be heard clearly even if they were indoors.

"coming."

Above the head of the black-armored warrior, Theresia held the royal sword in her hand, her eyes solemn.

The torrent of energy covering the sky rolled out whirlpools, and the dark crystals condensed and fell from them. Under the control of the devil, they crashed into the cannonballs, exploding into clouds of fire in mid-air. The violent air waves rolled and twisted, forming a whirlpool that was visible to the naked eye. Ripples spread in all directions.

Boom boom boom!

The sound of artillery fire continued in the distance, and more and more artillery shells flew past, breaking through and intercepting.

The black-armored warrior and Theresia raised their swords simultaneously, and the brilliant sword light slashed open the space, sweeping across all directions with majestic energy, blasting all the shells that broke through the interception.

Click ~ click ~

The cracks spread upward along the blade, becoming more and more obvious. However, the bombardment of the city defense artillery had no intention of stopping.

boom!

Thunder exploded!

The sky in the distance suddenly lit up, like a rising sun, and a dazzling 'shooting star' with an indistinguishable shape flew up into the sky, tearing apart the power of the Demon King covering the sky and falling rapidly towards the ground.

Click!

Facing the endless artillery fire, the enlarged version of the King's Sword in the hands of the Black Sword Warrior could no longer hold up and shattered into irregular fragments.

Driven by Theresia, the giant raised his arms and used the most arrogant gesture to block the shining meteors that followed. The armor on his chest and back was shattered by the continuous cannonballs.

That meteor was obviously far more powerful than an ordinary city defense artillery bombardment. The moment it collided with it, the black-armored warrior's arms were directly crushed, and the high temperature of the distorted air rushed towards his face.

Thearesia gritted her teeth and controlled the giant to leap up and hit it with her whole body.
