"What!?"
The soldier had never thought that there would be something above his head, and he subconsciously threw himself to the side without even having time to see what was attacking him.
But the next moment, the being that suddenly attacked from the air suddenly turned flexibly following the soldier's movements after the soldier pounced out, and continued to press firmly on the soldier's back!
"What the hell is this!?"
Turning around and looking at the strange creature with a white shell on its back, the soldier showed a look of horror on his face and subconsciously clenched his fists and smashed them behind him.
——Bang!
But just like hitting steel, with a dull sound, the soldier's clenched fist was cut by the monster's shell, but the monster did not move.
The monster looks like it is only half the size of a human, but its body is much harder and stronger than that of a sturdy soldier!
At this time, as the soldiers were subdued by the monsters, the owners of the footsteps around them finally arrived.
In just a moment, the soldiers were surrounded by lunatics who were holding various weapons, had dull faces, were covered in blood and even had bullet holes on their bodies. They looked more like monsters than humans.
Moreover, above the sky, there were two monsters that seemed to be pressing down on him, and they were hovering at low altitude like crows.
Seeing this scene, the soldier's face froze, he loosened his clenched fists, and gave up his last struggle.
"Damn it... that's it."
The desperate soldier closed his eyes, waiting to be torn to pieces by these lunatics and monsters.
But to the soldier's surprise, after a while, there was still no pain, but instead the sound of crisp footsteps suddenly came from the silent surroundings.
"What's wrong?" The puzzled soldier opened his eyes and saw a beautiful black-haired Asian girl walking out of the path that the madman had cleared.
"Who are you!?"
"What on earth do you want to do!?"
Seeing that the girl had a cold but rational face, unlike the crazy people around her, the soldiers immediately shouted loudly, trying to fight for a chance of survival.
But the black-haired girl...or rather, Tomie Kawakami ignored the human's cries, but squatted down, stained her fingers with the soldier's blood, and gently placed them in front of her eyes.
"There is no Houkai reaction... isn't it him?"
After saying that, Kawakami Tomie confirmed that the soldier was just an ordinary human being, and gently pressed her palm on the head of the soldier who was shouting something.
It doesn't matter what the soldiers are shouting.
Because next, Tomie Kawakami will get the information she wants.
The next moment, tentacles emerged from Kawakami Tomie's hands and wrapped around the soldier's head.
“Ugh! Ugh!!”
The soldiers tried to shout in horror, but were all pushed back by the tentacles.
At this moment, the empire and glory were no longer important. He looked at the layers of tentacles that had collapsed - he wanted to survive, so it didn't matter if he betrayed the director or the empire!
But unfortunately, Tomie Kawakami will not give him this opportunity.
Therefore, the tentacles invaded his body without any hesitation and secreted T-Honkai energy mucus.
A few seconds later, when the soldier's voice disappeared, Kawakami Tomie retracted her tentacles and took away her palm.
At this moment, the expression on the soldier's face was no longer as lively as before, but became dull.
——He has become a death soldier, and an intelligent death soldier that was specially strengthened by Tomie Kawakami using T-Honkai energy.
"What are you researching in your base?"
Looking at the soldiers who had turned into dead soldiers, Kawakami Tomie asked coldly.
The soldier who had already become a dead soldier naturally answered without hesitation: "I don't know - I only know that it is some kind of biological research. It seems to be studying how to integrate some kind of organism into the human body."
As I said just now, Tomie Kawakami always gets the information she wants.
Hearing this, Kawakami Tomie narrowed her eyes.
"Some kind of creature? Integrating into the human body?"
Sure enough, the information that Kawakami Tomie analyzed based on the blood was correct, and the Holy Lord was indeed integrated into the human body.
Among the two people who escaped, the soldier has been caught and confirmed to be an ordinary person. In other words, the person who merged with the Holy Lord or a part of the Holy Lord should be the researcher, right?
Thinking of this, Kawakami Tomie couldn't help but reveal a hint of sarcasm: "How stupid, having such great power has ended up like this."
"This Holy Lord is not worthy of being my God's follower!"
After that, Kawakami Tomie looked at the soldier again: "Where's the other person? Where is the other person?"
Hearing this, the soldier looked at Kawakami Tomie and asked, "Which one are you asking about?"
"Which one?" Kawakami Tomie had a bad feeling in her heart: "Isn't there only one researcher in a white coat left?!"
The soldier shook his head dully: "No... There is another girl, her name is Experimenter 01, she is the experimental subject that merged with that strange creature, and I left her in the car at that time."
Hearing this, Kawakami Tomie stood up suddenly and looked at the car accident scene behind her.
What a joke!
——Tomie Kawakami could be sure that there were no living people or creatures related to Honkai energy in the car accident scene she had just seen.
That is to say...
"…Did he escape by himself?"
Although she didn't know what the world and Mo Ren had done, Kawakami Tomie, who had come to the conclusion that the Holy Lord's consciousness had awakened, said in a grim and low voice: "It could clearly see the dead man, but it didn't choose to meet me... Is it worried that I would devour it?"
Although this was somewhat beyond Kawakami Tomie's expectations, it was reasonable when she thought about it carefully.
After all, Tomie Kawakami did have the idea of devouring the opponent if the opponent was in particularly bad condition.
Just like how Kawakami Tomie once devoured ordinary warriors in Tokyo to recover from her injuries and strengthen herself, if it were Kawakami Tomie herself, if she met a powerful fellow warrior when she was in a bad condition, she would also be worried about being devoured.
Realizing this, Kawakami Tomie, who had missed the chance to host the Holy Lord after many twists and turns, gradually showed a hint of impatient murderous intent in her eyes: "...Simply spread the collapse and turn Sydney into the second Tokyo!"
But soon, Kawakami Tomie suppressed her murderous intent.
Cannot spread collapse.
If the Honkai is spread, although the host of the Holy Lord can be found in a short period of time, it will also weaken the Honkai energy controlled by Tomie Kawakami.
At the same time, it will also give the Holy Lord a chance to recover after devouring the dead soldiers.
——This is exactly what Tomie Kawakami doesn’t want to see.
Just as the Holy Lord was worried that Kawakami Tomie would devour him, Kawakami Tomie was also worried that the Holy Lord, who would become even more powerful after recovery, would devour her.
At least, before meeting the Holy Lord and communicating with him, Kawakami Tomie will not spread the Honkai for the time being.
"...Then there's only a little bit left to find."
Kawakami Tomie whispered.
"It doesn't matter. I already know the body that the Holy Lord is staying in. The original purpose has been achieved."
"The next step is to find the Holy Lord!"
Thinking of this, Tomie Kawakami looked at the soldiers below and waved.
"Go - describe the appearance of Experimenter 01, and then find her!"
After saying that, looking at the scattered assassins and three Honkai beasts around him, Kawakami Tomie suddenly frowned.
"Huh? Did I forget something?"
However, Tomie Kawakami quickly put this concern behind her.
The forgotten things are not important - what is important now is to find the Lord and its host!
Chapter 58: The Panicked Governor and Wendy Encountered a Killer
"What did you say!?"
Hearing the report from the deputy governor, the fat man sitting behind the desk could not help but stand up suddenly. He did not even care that he stood up too hastily, and his big belly directly knocked the documents and the governor's seal on the table to the ground.
He is the governor of the Tenth District, York Dikarapian. Unlike Tendo Kikunosuke, who was forced to cede power to the Eleventh District and let someone from the Eleventh District serve as governor because of the New Ming, York is a thorough native aristocrat of the empire. The position of governor of the Tenth District is nothing more than a transition to making money and gilding the gild.
Therefore, York, whose roots are in the empire, doesn't care what the tenth district of the colony is like. As long as he can collect enough money and complete the empire's assignments, York has always taken a laissez-faire attitude towards the tenth district.
In addition, the Tenth District is isolated overseas, keeping a distance from Xinming and the European Union, and has sufficient military strength and the Royal Second Navy Fleet, so it is very safe.
Therefore, many research projects that are not suitable for local experiments were arranged by the Empire to be carried out in the safe Tenth District.
But at this moment, York regretted his inaction for the first time.
Because at this moment, the deputy governor in front of him reported to him some very bad news - the empire's three top-secret military bases were attacked at the same time!
Although according to the surviving soldiers, the attackers were "lunatics" who were so crazy that they used their bodies to block bullets and continued to attack even after being pierced by bullets.
But in the eyes of Governor York, this is simply the elite special forces of the New Ming people!
The land of the Tenth District has been infiltrated by the New Ming people to the point where they can gather armed forces to attack the military base... York can even imagine how the Imperial Parliament will impeach him later!
And that’s not even the worst of it, the worst of it – those attacks were successful!
All three military bases have been occupied for a period of time!
The Empire’s three highest-level military bases in the Tenth District—secret military bases where even he didn’t know what they were researching—had been occupied by Xinming’s elite armed forces for a long time.
——According to the laws of the empire, this is at least a starting point for hanging.
Thinking of this, York, the Governor of the Tenth District, felt dizzy and collapsed in his chair.
“…Governor-General!?”
The attendants around and the deputy governor who reported the incident were horrified and rushed forward to rescue Governor York.
It was not known whether it was due to his plump body caused by a life of luxury or the timely rescue by the attendants around him, but after a while, Governor York slowly woke up.
As soon as he woke up, he saw the face of the deputy governor who came to report, and York's expression immediately stiffened.
...He felt that fainting was better than reality.
Thinking of this, Governor York subconsciously wanted to close his eyes.
——Since I’m going to die anyway, I might as well die in my sleep, which will be more comfortable.
The deputy governor next to him immediately understood Governor York's idea and shouted quickly: "Governor, there is still a way! There is still a way!"
"What...what method?"
Governor York asked tremblingly, barely opening his eyes.
The deputy governor quickly replied: "Among the three military bases that were attacked, the director of the research institute in the city that was attacked survived. He was not killed by the unknown armed men!"
"What's the use?" Governor York said with despair.
Of the three occupied military bases, only one person in charge of one base survived. Isn't that worse?
Seeing that Governor York's expression was getting worse, the Deputy Governor quickly said, "According to him, the research he was in charge of had just made a huge breakthrough, and the only experimenter 01 who succeeded in the human experiment was taken away!"
"As long as we can get our research results back before the Empire holds us accountable, the Director can plead for us with the Empire during the report!"
"plead?"
Hearing this, Governor York suddenly perked up and stood up abruptly with the support of his guards.
"That's right! As long as I can capture those Xinming armed men and take back the important research results, King Charles will definitely forgive me!"
"...At least, hanging can be avoided!"
"Yes! It must be possible!"
Thinking of this, Governor York, who had grasped the last straw, slammed the table and shouted loudly: "What are you still waiting for? Mobilize the Tenth District Army and take over Sydney directly!"
"Go find all those armed men! Don't let any of them go. Take back the empire's research results!"
"...But, but." The deputy governor hesitated and said, "The empire ordered us to support the rebellion in District 11. Apart from the necessary defense forces, all the land forces that can be mobilized have begun to gather at the port..."
"What does the rebellion in District 11 have to do with me? District 10 is in rebellion!"
Governor York shouted angrily: "Ignore them, call them all back!"
"But the person in charge of the rebellion in District 11 is Princess Marianne, King Charles' favorite..."
The Deputy Governor reminded quietly.
Governor York's expression froze. He glanced at the Deputy Governor, then gritted his teeth and said, "Then transfer back half... no, two-thirds!"
