Mint, who was hiding on Xiachuanhu's shoulder, said.
[I can feel that the minds of these soldiers are all under control. You can investigate and see if nothing unexpected happens. If nothing unexpected happens, they should have nerve control devices from the people in heaven.]
(Do people in heaven have this kind of technology?)
Xia Chuanhu raised his eyebrows, squatted down and touched one of the soldiers, and soon, accompanied by a force of attraction in his palm, a small red device that looked like an octopus was pulled out of the soldier's body by Xia Chuanhu.
[I knew it! It just looks like the latest model, which is different from what I know.]
[I didn't expect that the people in the sky would start this kind of infiltration investigation before actually launching an invasion. We must hurry up and get rid of that scout star! ]
"..."
After staring at the small device in his hand for a while, Xia Chuanhu gently crushed it, turned around and looked at Tesla who was busy at the operating table: "So, Dr. Tesla, how are the preparations for the launch of the silver bullet going?"
"...There's a big problem." Tesla knocked on the steel pillar next to him in dissatisfaction. "The main control computer has been installed with a virus, and the entire launch system has been paralyzed. It will take a day or two to completely repair it. How can we get rid of the Fourth God Key in this situation?"
"Don't worry about the problems over there. Destiny will be in charge of the Fourth Divine Key. I have already contacted Bishop Otto."
"Huh? I said you—"
When Tesla heard Otto's name, her face immediately darkened. She really didn't have any good feelings towards Otto.
Without paying attention to her expression, Xia Chuanhu continued, "Compared to this, I have something I want to ask Anti-Entropy. Can you please contact Mr. Walter and Dr. Einstein immediately?"
"Eh?"
----------------------
After a while.
Inside the conference room at the launch base.
"——That's all I have to say."
To the projected figures of Walter and Einstein, as well as Tesla who was in the same room with him, Xia Chuanhu explained the matters concerning the man in heaven.
"First I want to confirm whether the things about the asteroid are true."
[This is indeed true. Ten days ago, an asteroid was indeed observed near Jupiter, named Asteroid 439. But according to the joint calculations of Anti-Entropy and Destiny, the asteroid will be captured by the sun's gravity and fall into the sun in a month - this result has been calculated fifteen times, and Destiny has given the same answer.]
Einstein replied.
[However, if it is really the so-called scout star of the people in the sky, then given the technological level of the other party that can carry out interstellar navigation, it is not incomprehensible that they would interfere with our observations. I have sent people to conduct a second observation of asteroid 439, and we will know the latest trajectory soon.]
"Thank you for your hard work, Dr. Einstein."
Xiachuan Hu still likes people like Einstein who can take action immediately without any explanation. They are really reliable.
[But it’s still a little hard to believe, the alien thing - if everything you said is true, then in addition to the collapse, we will also have to face the invisible threat of the people in the sky... This is really not good news for the whole world.]
Walter’s face looked a little bad.
[Dr. Tesla, how many days will it take to repair the Silver Bullet's launch system? ]
"It will take at least two days. It's not just the launch system, the entire main control computer is broken. I'm alone, so repairs are slow." Tesla said helplessly, "Tsk, we haven't even fixed the collapse yet, and we have to face some kind of person in the sky again. We've finally had a few years of peace and stability, and they don't want us to rest!"
As the saying goes, there are wolves in front and tigers behind. The current human beings are struggling to face the collapse. The second collapse was just a miserable victory. If they face the celestial beings with higher technology than them...
It is hard to imagine what kind of impact the world will face at that time.
"I say, what are you worried about?"
Xia Chuanhu's somewhat relaxed voice broke the sad expressions on everyone's faces.
"Why do you think I contacted you and told you about the people in heaven?"
[…Do you have a solution, Mr. Natsukawa? If you do, please don’t keep us in suspense and tell us directly.]
"It's easy, Dr. Einstein—just let me go."
Pointing to the sky, Xia Chuanhu showed a confident look on his face: "You Anti-Entropy should have the technology for manned space flight, right? Siegfried told me so. After confirming the coordinates of the scout planet, you send me directly to its vicinity, and then I can shoot it down directly!"
"As for the invisible threat from the people in the sky... I can't say that I can kill them directly in their hometown, but every time they launch an invasion, I can guarantee that they will be wiped out."
"I don't think I've told you yet? Actually, I can turn into a giant of light."
40. Giant of Light? Light Gundam!
Natsukawa Tiger can transform into a giant of light.
But it is not the kind of giant of light that flies from the M78 nebula or some other constellation, eliminating evil and upholding peace and justice throughout the universe, but the literal "Giant of Light" - Xiachuan Tiger can transform into a huge humanoid luminous energy body about 250 meters tall.
In the Type-Moon world, the royal families of the True Ancestor possess a special ability that only they can use, called the [Light Body].
When the bodies of the True Ancestor royal family are completely destroyed for some reason, the huge amount of magic power accumulated in their bodies will be released in one breath from the [compressed] state, expanding and spreading the scale of the True Ancestor royal family's existence as much as possible, and the individual that is finally formed is the [light body].
The official name is [Inflation], and it is called a light body only because the individual that is finally formed looks like a huge glowing body from the outside.
For the entire world, [Light Body] is not a disaster, but a natural phenomenon, another attitude of the True Ancestors who are the touch of the stars. For Gaia, this attitude is not unreasonable. But for humans, [Light Body] is a real natural disaster.
Simply showing the body will cause all creations on Earth to disappear. In terms of mystery, it is on the same level as the power of gods. If it is Elquet's light body, it would not be surprising even if it caused the disappearance of all the products of civilization on Earth.
Xiachuanhu's [Light Body] is at the same level as Elquet.
But to be honest, Xia Chuanhu himself had not used [Light Body] many times, because [Light Body] was not a skill that could be used casually. The prerequisite was that [the body was completely destroyed].
As for the existence that can completely destroy Xia Chuanhu's body... at least it does not exist for now. The only time he appeared in a light body on the battlefield was when he fought the white giant god, and he has never shown it again since then.
In the final analysis, [Light Body] is simply the phenomenon of the explosive diffusion of excess magic power accumulated in the body, and it is not a posture suitable for fighting.
However, Xia Chuanhu made some modifications to the [Light Body].
The essence of the light body is very simple, which is the combination of [the loss of control of huge magic power] and [the projection of what is in the mind]. So as long as these two conditions are met at the same time, even if the body is not completely destroyed, it is enough to realize another [light body].
Without receiving support from the planet itself, Xia Chuanhu's magic power is insanely large. If the total magic power of a first-rate magician is considered to be 20, then his total magic power is 10000, or even more. The body of an elf and the heart of a red dragon allow him to produce overwhelming magic power in both quality and quantity with every breath. Even if a large amount of magic power is used up at one time, it can be fully recovered in a few breaths.
This resulted in his magic output being exceptionally strong, which was enough to fully support the consumption required to create the [Light Body]. As for what he was thinking in his mind... that was not a problem at all.
In other words - Natsukawa Tiger's [Pseudo-Light Body] is equal to his [Gundam]!
------------
"...That's probably it."
After briefly explaining his abilities on the blackboard, Xia Chuanhu looked at Walter and the other two and said, "As long as the movement trajectory of the scout star can be determined and it is within my effective range, I can directly transform and shoot down the scout star. After that, I will remain in that form for about 72 hours, which should be enough as a military deterrent."
"I see....."
Dr. Tesla nodded, not quite understanding.
Of course, she didn't understand what magic was, nor did she understand what the white giant god was, but she could understand it if she slightly changed the concepts.
"So, you can build an Alaharto with your own abilities?"
"You can say that - but it's not quite the same. My other ability can also create a super mecha similar to Arahato, but that requires certain conditions to be met, and I probably can't do it now. The means I can fully exert now are limited to basic [Magic Operations]."
Fantasy Manifestation cannot be used at full power in the Collapse World, and the magic of each system can only exert minimal effect due to the lack of magic base. Even high-level magic above a certain level cannot be used at all, and can only be forced to exist by consuming excessive magic power.
The only ability that can be used without any restrictions is indeed magic manipulation - [Pseudo-Light Body] belongs to this category.
"Also, considering the consumption of magic power, before I reach the universe, I hope to be able to use the anti-entropy launch of Alahato to send me up."
[…Are you trying to conserve your energy? ]
Walter asked.
Xia Chuanhu smiled and nodded: "Of course I can go to the universe by myself. It is not difficult for me to break through the universe alone, but the opponent is an alien civilization of unknown strength. If possible, I don’t want to consume too much magic power before the battle - and I really want to sit on Alahato! That will be an important reference for me in the future!"
Xia Chuanhu said the second half of the sentence with shining eyes.
Walter: [......]
He really wanted to ask Xia Chuanhu what he wanted to use as a reference, but vaguely, he felt that he had roughly guessed what Xia Chuanhu wanted to do.
"...Alliance leader, what do you think?"
Tesla asked Walter this question.
"Chicken Coop Head should be able to complete the observation soon, and if Alahato wants to go to space... the preparations made for launching the silver bullet have not been removed in time. If they hurry up, they can be completed before dawn tomorrow. The problem is-"
Can Xiachuan Hu really do what he says by himself?
[...Then I'll leave everything to you, Mr. Natsukawa]
After a moment of silence, Walter looked at Xia Chuanhu seriously and said.
[But I have one condition, that is, I want to go to the universe together]
"Of course you can... but you'll probably be the one holding me back. I'm not looking down on you, but for me, the best time to give full play to my abilities in this world is when I'm alone. Others can't really help me with anything."
[It doesn't matter, I just want to see your power at the closest distance]
"Whatever you want—it's settled, then?"
【Um. 】
Looking at the two people who had reached a consensus, Tesla curled her lips helplessly. She had known for a long time that her leader was a hopeless idiot who liked to force himself and did not cherish his life, but the leader was the leader, and she, as an executive, could only follow orders.
"Then I'll let Longma go and make the preparations. I'll let you know when the preparations are complete. Until then, you stay here now."
"Before that, I want to go back to Los Angeles."
Back to Los Angeles?
Tesla frowned. “Why are you going to Los Angeles?”
"Just completing my mission." Xiachuanhu pointed at Wuliangta Ryusuke, "Take him to see his daughter. This is probably his last chance to meet his daughter."
41. Guda? (Vision)
Ryuji Muryota didn't know when he lost consciousness, nor did he know when he regained consciousness.
He just felt his head suddenly dizzy, and when he woke up, he was already sitting in the back seat of a taxi.
"woke up?"
Seeing him wake up, Xia Chuanhu smiled and greeted him: "How do you feel? Can you still remember what happened before?"
"...Mr. Bodyguard? And...mints?"
The gradually clearer vision allowed Ryusuke Muryota to see clearly Natsukawa Tora in front of him and his partner lying on his shoulder, and at the same time, he remembered what he had experienced before.
Being controlled mentally and physically by Xia Chuanhu, he couldn't help but reveal his plans and goals, and then...
"...Am I on my way back to Destiny to be punished?"
After a pause, Wuliangta Ryusuke showed a bitter expression as if he was heartbroken.
Xia Chuanhu signaled Mint to stop talking, then smiled and said, "Not really, but it won't be too late. After I finish the things at hand, I will take you back to Tianming to receive punishment. By the way, the punishment has already been issued."
"According to Bishop Otto's judgment, your actions have constituted a series of crimes, including betrayal of the Mandate of Heaven, theft of important property of the Mandate of Heaven, and private terrorist attacks against organizations friendly to the Mandate of Heaven. In addition to removing you from your position as director of the Saint 7308 Research Institute, all your property and research materials in the Mandate of Heaven will be confiscated, and you will be fined an astronomical amount."
"Also, fate has prepared a very good solitary prison for you. You will spend the rest of your life there facing an empty wall."
This was what Otto suddenly told Natsukawa Tora before they left the Anti-Entropy Base, although it was unclear what his purpose was in telling him about the punishment for Ryusuke Muliangta.
--contradiction.
After hearing the entire punishment, the first thing Ryuji Muliangta felt was contradiction.
If you look at each punishment separately, it's reasonable, but when you put them together... it's reasonable but also a little too light? It's even inconsistent.
"Did you notice something was wrong?"
"According to Bishop Otto, this ruling was made after considering your achievements. In his opinion, the ecological restoration work in Siberia that you led is of great value, so your merits and demerits offset each other, so you will not be sentenced to death directly - there are also assassination-related Valkyries in the sky, right?"
Is that so?
(The bishop actually has such a kind side? But...)
"How can I pay the fine if I withdraw from my position?"
"Well..."
Xia Chuanhu didn't say anything else. At the same time, the driver in front stopped the car and said, "My dear, we've arrived."
