Their actions at this point were already the limit of what they could do under the orders of their superiors. They would not and were not willing to sacrifice their lives to save this overseas colonial city that had nothing to do with them.

But the reason why the soldiers here would engage in firefighting was an exception was because of a woman, a woman who was standing in front of the flames at this moment, and the person who had talked to the Governor before - Marianna vi Brittany.

Marianna was born into a commoner family. She became famous in the Empire for her military achievements. She was one of the few powerful women in the Imperial Army and had a status of Knight Candidate in the Imperial Army that was almost equivalent to the title of General.

However, her most important identity is not a Knight Candidate, but the fifth princess of Charles zi Britannia, the ruler of the empire, and one of the out-and-out rulers of the empire!

It was precisely because of the presence of this Princess Knight Candidate that the soldiers around her worked so hard.

After all, one of the highest-ranking military leaders is here, so they have no choice but to work hard.

The reason why Marianna, the princess, appeared in the tenth district, Australia, was that she came to inspect the new weapons and mechas for Charlie, but she did not expect that she would see such an incredible scene.

“…It’s amazing.”

Looking at the flames burning the city in front of her, Marianna couldn't help but touch her hair which was slightly bent due to the high temperature.

"I thought the new weapon mecha under research was the ultimate manifestation of personal strength..."

"I never thought there would be such a monster in this world that could destroy an entire city by itself!"

"And there is that... one who defeated the monster!"

Thinking of this, Marianna couldn't help but recall again the battle she had seen in the sky before.

Although she did not see clearly the being fighting the monster in the sky at that time, she could still vaguely see from the telescope that it should be a human... at least it looked like a human.

Marianna had many doubts about this.

What is that human-like being?

Is he protecting humans, or is he just attacking the monster, with protecting humans being a byproduct?

Whenever she thought of these doubts, Marianna couldn't help but frown, and she wished she could return to the imperial capital of North America immediately to report everything she had seen.

This is no longer something Marianna can decide.

Such an important matter can only be decided by Charles, the supreme ruler of the empire.

But unfortunately, at this time in Sydney, there was something holding her back, preventing her from immediately returning to the empire...

That is the monster's severed arm!

“…that arm.”

千,!':寻:';!小;,说.'.中,转!,?"裙.?2'5:!5??5'!9?;5!;3";,0!0玛丽安娜的目光死死的看向火焰之中。

There, under the cover of flames, on top of the collapsed ruins, one can vaguely see a huge arm that seems to have become a lot smaller than at the beginning, but is still tens of meters long and several meters in diameter!

When the Holy Lord died in the flames, his body had been completely destroyed by Kevin's Skyfire, and was washed away and burned into countless pieces of Honkai energy that returned to Moren's body.

However, the arm that was previously severed did not disappear along with it under Mo Ren's control.

At least it hasn't dissipated yet.

That's why this huge arm also caught Marianna's attention!

"This thing...must be in my hands!"

Mariana stared at the huge arm.

She is not a scientist, and in fact, Marianna doesn't care much about things other than combat.

But Marianna's instinct as a warrior and a commander also made her attach great importance to this arm.

As the princess of the empire, Marianna knew many secrets of the empire and was aware of many unspeakable experiments in the dark corners of the empire, such as cloning experiments.

This made Mariana couldn't help but have an idea.

If...if she got this arm, could she use it to clone this monster - even if it only had a small fraction of the monster's power?

Thinking of this, even Marianna, who had experienced life and death on the battlefield many times, couldn't help but breathe rapidly.

As Sydney's burning air continued to flow into Marianna's body, her heartbeat unconsciously began to beat more violently.

"Boost!"

"At all costs, the flames around the arm must be extinguished as quickly as possible!"

Mariana stared at the arm not far away and roared loudly.

Chapter 51: National Institute of Ecology under the umbrella

"Alas!!"

Accompanied by the violent shaking, Tanya, who was sitting in the helicopter, screamed.

She looked at the cage opposite her, which was fixed but seemed to be shaking just now. She felt the coldness and vibration coming from the helicopter behind her. She couldn't help but curl up her body and move a little closer to the iron wall of the helicopter behind her.

In fact, if it weren't for the sense of security given by the several armed soldiers around her, Tanya would have curled up into a ball by now.

Originally Tanya felt that after three days of life at the Instinct Academy.

After witnessing the survivors being exiled for stealing food and seeing the poor living conditions of the survivors, she should have fully understood and adapted to life in Tokyo.

But when Guilongyuan Gaoyue, with an ugly face, personally sent the so-called death warriors.

Tanya then realized that she actually didn't understand or adapt to the terror from Tokyo.

She just saw the relatively good side of Tokyo at this time.

Because - she finally came into close contact with the so-called death warriors.

Thinking of this, Tanya swallowed and looked at the cage wrapped in black cloth opposite her, which gave off a rotten and foul smell.

Inside there are the assassins captured by Guilongyuan Gaoyue.

It was just different from the blurry scene seen when parachuting, and different from the bodies of the warriors killed by the college’s student union.

At this moment, several living assassins were hidden under the black cloth of the cage opposite her.

Under the black cloth was a monster with its chest pierced by ribs, its abdomen open and organs missing, but it was still alive!

Only after she came into close contact with the assassins did she understand how terrifying they were.

“This kind of thing!”

Tanya hugged her waist and abdomen tightly with a slight tremor: "This kind of thing... should not exist in this world"

"Moren... that evil guy, what does he want this kind of thing for?"

Thinking of the information about the assassins that she had obtained from asking the people at the Instinct Academy, Tanya became extremely nervous, knowing that if she was scratched by the assassins, she would become a assassin as well.

After coming into contact with the assassins, Tanya thought more than once about killing the assassins in the cages.

Because now she knows very well what would happen if this kind of thing got out of control in a big city.

That would be a second Tokyo—a second hell!

But in the end, Tanya didn't do it.

Because she knew better than anyone that she had no choice. In the academy, Guilongyuan Gaoyue would not allow her to do so, and on the helicopter, the soldiers around her would not watch her do so.

In fact, from the beginning she never had a choice but to obey Moren's orders.

Just when Tanya was nervous and frightened, the helicopter suddenly began to descend.

“Are we…are we there yet?!”

Watching the helicopter descending rapidly and gradually stopping, Tanya looked around nervously.

The armed soldiers around ignored Tanya and waited for the helicopter to stop. Then they stood up silently and opened the rear door of the helicopter.

At the rear door, several people were standing there welcoming the assassins, surrounded by the strong wind that was stirred up by the helicopter's landing and had not yet stopped.

The young man in black smiled as he saw the open hatch and stood in front of several fully armed soldiers and researchers in white.

It’s Mo Ren!

"Ah!" Tanya, who didn't expect Mo Ren to come, exclaimed, and quickly stood up and walked out: "Master Mo Ren! Why are you here..."

Mo Ren raised his hand to interrupt her. Under the gaze of the surrounding soldiers, he walked to the cage covered with black cloth, sensing the weak Honkai energy coming from inside, and asked the question even though he knew the answer.

"Is this the captured assassin?"

"Yes, it is!"

Tanya replied nervously.

Hearing this, Mo Ren gently lifted the black cloth and looked inside.

Five "people" with thick masks covering their mouths and their hands and feet tightly trapped appeared in front of him.

This group of people included old and young, men and women. If you ignore their limbs covered with blood and bite marks, and their disemboweled bodies, they would look no different from ordinary homeless people.

However, it is worth mentioning that Mo Rencong discovered that one of them was wearing the school uniform of Instinct Academy.

The assassin wearing the uniform of Instinct Academy had the least wounds on his body and was the only one that was intact.

"…It seems that the survivors in Tokyo are still not doing well."

Seeing that there were also assassins among the people of the Instinct Academy, which should be the safest in theory, Mo Ren raised his eyebrows slightly.

"Well, as expected, we still need to improve the strength of the survivors in Tokyo."

"Are we going to activate the broadcast? It's been a few days, so the time is almost right."

At this time, Tanya also came closer nervously, interrupting Mo Ren's thoughts.

"Be careful... these guys are very dangerous. If you get bitten, you will get infected!"

She didn't dare to let anything happen to the young master in front of her, and it was obvious that the young master had never experienced any hardships, so she didn't want him to be frightened and paralyzed, and then take his anger out on her.

Hearing this, Mo Ren, who had put down the black cloth, temporarily stopped thinking about his plan, and turned to look at her with smiling eyes.

Tanya was stunned when she saw Mo Ren's gaze, which showed no fear at all and was even smiling.

He... doesn't seem afraid at all?

"Didn't Kiryuin Gaoyue tell you?"

Mo Ren withdrew his gaze and said this, then turned around and nodded to the soldiers and white coats behind him, then walked towards the research institute not far from the helipad.

"What do you mean?"

After taking her eyes off the soldiers who were stepping forward to accept the death penalty, Tanya quickly followed them.

"I was also at the Instinct Academy when the disaster broke out."

Moren said with a smile: "I left Tokyo a few days after the disaster broke out, so in a sense I am also one of the first survivors."

"Eh?"

Tanya stood there in a daze, a look of disbelief on her face.

This guy in front of me, who is rich, powerful and handsome, but looks weak, is actually a survivor in Tokyo!

What a joke, you have to know that in the Instinct Academy, except for the elderly and children who are unable to move, everyone is obliged to go out and collect survival supplies!

Among the survivors Tanya had seen, the weakest ones were thugs who dared to smash the heads of the dead with sticks!

——This guy Mo Ren clearly doesn’t look like he can fight!

Just when Tanya was so shocked that she stopped, Mo Ren, who had already arrived at the gate of the research institute, glanced at her, pushed open the door and walked in.

"Stop being in a daze and come here."

"Ah, yes!"

Tanya reacted at this time and hurriedly followed.

"Forget it... maybe it's just that Moren didn't stay there for long, so the situation wasn't that serious at the time."

Tanya shook her head and put aside her meaningless thoughts.

She walked forward quickly, and subconsciously looked up at the institute's logo and name, then pushed open the door and walked into the institute.

While following Mo Ren's footsteps, she subconsciously thought about the house number and sign she had just seen: "...National Institute of Ecology? A name with no clear meaning."

"And this red and white umbrella institute logo is really weird."

Chapter 52: Tanya Returns

A moment later, in Moren's office, Moren, who had already returned to the room and was sitting behind his desk, glanced at Tanya, who was a little uneasy opposite him, picked up a piece of information and threw it on the table.
