"No, that's not right," Kemp stopped Yu and continued, "As each team only needs three dog tags to enter the inner circle, the extra dog tags will not be recycled. After all, it is meaningless and may attract too much attention."

"Does this mean that there will always be extra dog tags left on the battlefield, unclaimed?" Jessica seemed to realize something.

"That's right," Kemp nodded, "and what we need to do is to find those dog tags and evacuate directly from the [Border]. In this way, we can escape from the [Competition] without even fighting. In this way, the combined prize money of the three of us should be enough to raise medical expenses for Aunt Enlia."

"My bonus is mine," Yu's voice was somewhat gloomy, "Don't take it."

"Then two will be enough." Kemp waved his hand quickly, "In short, we don't need to kill anyone to get the money."

"What if... this doesn't happen?" Jessica was a little worried, "What if we have to kill people?"

"In that case..." Kemp was stunned. He considered his words for a while, but was interrupted by the rain.

"Then kill them."

Yu gently pulled the bolt of his gun, and determination was revealed in his eyes.

"You can't do it, I'll do it."

2) Broken Wrist (Part 2)

"Buzzing—"

A huge sky carrier flew over the city, accompanied by a strong wind that blew across the city's outline, causing countless passers-by to look up.

The blood-red eyes reflected the more than ten factor energy engine nozzles of the giant ship. Facing such a huge monster, there was no ripple on Perlis's face.

The [Admir Sky Eye], which has been docked at the port of Vizel all year round, has arrived in Lavis, which is a signal that the [competition] is about to begin.

However, this time, it actually flew at such a low altitude, it was really idle...

"Are we...going to take this to the competition?"

Perlis turned her head slightly and found that Pace was staring at the back of the giant ship in amazement, with an extremely shocked look on his face.

"The Federation is sending out a deterrent signal," Carly said coldly, her icy blue eyes looking at the sky, "It looks like this year's competition won't be as smooth as in previous years."

"What do you mean?" Pace asked Carly, "Who are they warning?"

"Everyone, and..."

Under the shadow of the giant ship, Perlis looked up at the sky. The strong wind blowing through the city blew her pure white long hair up, fluttering in the air like fireworks.

The blood-red eyes stared at the Tower of Babel that held up half the sky. In an instant, from the top of the Tower of Babel, Perlis seemed to see a flash of silver eyes.

"He knows I'm coming."

......

Lian's laboratory is located in the city center of Lavis, the most prosperous area. I heard that she came to Lavis to avoid the crowds, and Perlis was very curious why she could hide in the city center to avoid the crowds.

After getting off the bus near the commercial street, Perlis and her group walked along the street and soon found the office building where Lian's laboratory was located. The building had nearly a hundred floors and was basically contracted by various companies. People from all walks of life walked in the elevator, most of them with gloomy faces, which was consistent with Lavis's gloomy face.

Taking the elevator, Perlis and his party soon arrived at the 82nd floor where Lian was. The rooms on this floor were very large, each room was about to square meters, very suitable for layout as a large office space.

The corridor was decorated in simple black and white, and it was bright and dignified. A group of people walked in the long corridor, looking for the room that belonged to Lian.

"It's really a luxury to give her such a large place as a laboratory..." Pace said in a low voice, afraid of disturbing something, "Is Miss Lian rich?"

"Of course, after all, she is the [Blade of Babel Tower], and she is also the kind stationed in the Federation for a long time," Carly said calmly, "Unlike the blades in the field, a lot of her work is to maintain the security facilities in the Federation. The basic defense system of the Federation is basically in her charge. Unlike me, I have already touched it~"

"I thought that the [Babel Tower Blade] was all combat-oriented..." Pace glanced at Perlis who had been silent all the way, "One blade can destroy thousands of troops, right?"

"Ha, Lian Ke is not lacking in fighting ability at all," Carly said calmly, "Back then, she and Aoi formed a team to participate in the competition. They had a clear division of labor and fought all the way from the edge to the top of the tower. Not only did they not suffer any losses, but they also hardly killed anyone. Do you know why?"

"why?"

"Because there's no need," Carly smiled slightly, "Everyone will lose consciousness the moment they see Lian, so there's basically no need for Aoi, a berserker, to take action."

"Is Miss Lian so powerful?" Pesce secretly sweatdropped. He recalled the aura that emanated from Aoi's eyebrows when he first met her, and couldn't help but sigh, "Sure enough, such a strong sister, the younger sister can't be weak..."

"Of course," Carly nodded, "But since becoming the [Blade of Babel], Rei has basically not participated in combat missions."

"Is it because of something else?" Pace wondered.

"Do not."

Carly smiled wickedly, and her icy blue eyes seemed to reflect the image of a fool.

"Because she's super lazy."

Listening to the conversation between Carly and Pace, Perlis had no interest in participating. Perlis basically didn't have much interaction with the sisters Aoi and Lian. She had a bad relationship with Aoi because she felt that Aoi was too noisy, nagging and making noise every day. The reason why she had a bad relationship with Lian was even simpler:

Because they both don't like socializing, they have never socialized with each other.

[Blade of Babel] The tenth seat, [Eye of Horus] Rei Sugimori, Aoi's younger sister. Similar to Carly, her presence in the world is very weak, so weak that almost no one knows that such a person exists. But even so, the Federation's homeland active defense system [Eye of Horus] that she is in charge of is well known to everyone. If Carly's [Eye of the Federation] is the Federation's spear in information warfare, then Rei's [Eye of Horus] is the Federation's shield in hot wars.

Such a person must be like Carly, who usually looks serious but is actually bad. Perlis secretly glanced at Carly who was chatting with Pace, and began to imagine what Lian looked like in her mind.

I will never deal with anyone like this! Except Carly!

Soon, Carly stopped in front of the door numbered 8205. She did not knock on the door, but gently let a few small birds fly out of her sleeves and landed on the place where the door card was swiped.

"She gave me the verification information and said she was too lazy to open the door, so she let me do whatever I wanted," Carly explained to the two. "Don't touch anything. The homegirl is scary. She'll get mad if you break anything."

Hey, are you talking about yourself? Perlis secretly complained in her heart.

After the test was passed, Lian's door opened with a "beep". Carly took the lead and walked in, followed by Perlis and Pesce, closing the door behind her.

This was a large room, but it was very dark, and the lights were rarely turned on, making it look like a haunted house. The group walked into the living room, but they could only stare at each other in the dark room, not knowing whether they should continue walking.

"Rai, are you there?"

Carly called out into the darkness, but no sound came out. The entire living room was dead silent, without a single movement.

"Maybe he's not at home?" Pace scratched his head.

"Impossible, didn't you see how many people were outside? She couldn't have gotten out."

After waiting for a while, Carly cleared her throat again and shouted:

"Lian! Are you there?"

"..."

It was still dead silent, with almost no sound.

"Something happened?" Perlis whispered, pulling out a butterfly knife, "I'll go take a look."

"Don't be impatient," Carly said, reaching out to stop him. "Just be patient, let me do it."

As she spoke, Carly waved her hand gently, and at her signal, several small dots emitting blue light in the dark began to fly towards the interior of the room, exploring. Carly squinted her eyes slightly, trying to see the synchronization information transmitted from her contact lenses.

"puff."

After a while, Carly almost burst out laughing as if she had seen something funny.

"Actually...Pfft..."

"What's wrong?" Pace asked.

"Just..." Carly covered her mouth, as if enduring a strong smile, "Forget it, just respect him. After all, everyone has some personal hobbies."

Carly made some slight gestures, as if she was controlling the bird. After a while, she cleared her throat and activated the bird's voice transmission function:

"Rei, stop looking, we're here."

"Eh!?"

In an instant, the speakers in the room rang, and a huge sound wave came. Perlis stepped back subconsciously, thinking it was some kind of sonic weapon.

However, it is an anime theme song.

"..."

Listening to the huge anime theme song coming through the speakers, Perlis and Pace exchanged glances, neither of them knowing what to say.

Are you so fascinated by it?

"Oh no..Oh no, we have to hurry..."

A soft female voice spoke in a panic, she was hitting something, and soon, the anime theme song disappeared.

"Lovely Miss Lian?" Carly smiled wickedly, looking very triumphant. "Are you willing to come out?"

"Carly, you!" The voice came from the speakers, sounding very angry, but soon dissipated, "Alas... bad thing..."

There was a loud snap of fingers, and then the whole room was filled with light. The bright and well-equipped laboratory hall appeared in front of everyone, full of a sense of technology.

"Clap."

A small door at the other end of the hall slowly opened, and a young girl walked out. She hurriedly tidied her messy chestnut hair, her brown eyes half-closed, and the dark circles under her eyes showed her pride as a little princess who stayed up late like a medal.

The girl looked at Carly with indignation, then sighed slightly and spoke softly:

"Long time no see, pink-haired nerd."

"You too, an animal lover," Carly looked at Lian with a smile, a smirk still lingering on the corners of her mouth, "New anime in March?"

"Why should you care? You didn't even watch!" Lian was very angry. "Why are you so evil?"

"Hahahaha, you're too engrossed. Shouldn't I remind you?"

"Don't you have the permission? Can't you just turn on the light and then knock on the door?"

"Eh? I forgot~" Carly blinked, "I'll definitely do it next time~"

"There won't be a next time. I definitely won't lend you my lab next time!"

Lian stood at the door, rubbing her eyes in frustration, as if she hated others interrupting her happy time of watching anime. She glanced at Perlis and Pesce beside her and nodded slightly.

"Nice to meet you, [Pure White Flame], and Debita-kun."

"Hello, Miss Lian, my name is Pace Monarch."

Pace also nodded, but as if out of curiosity, he added another question:

"Ms. Lian, why does Ms. Carly call you an animal lover? Is there any special reason... Damn it!"

The end of Pace's words turned into a short exclamation - he was not a man who was easily startled, and there was a reason for this: while he was speaking, Lian walked out of the door of the room, but not on her own legs.

Behind her, six slender mechanical arms extended from her tailbone, two of which were rooted on the ground, supporting her body steadily.

Accompanying her out of the room were a group of small animals created by holographic projection: there were puppies, kittens, and goats that were shrunk many times. These small animals circled around Lian's mechanical arm, clinging to her very much.

"Let me introduce myself," Lian's tone became lazy and weak, and her brown eyes narrowed slightly, "My name is Shansen Lian, the tenth seat of [Blade of Babel]... Doesn't this sound cool?"

......

2) Broken Wrist (Part 3)

Even Pace, who was called a "barbarian" by Carly, couldn't help but think of two golden words in his mind when he saw Lian's laboratory in operation:

civilization.

When he entered the room, he couldn't see the whole picture of the laboratory. When Lian put the whole laboratory into operation, the huge room began to operate like a living being. Countless strange mechanical equipment moved in a way that Pace couldn't understand, and the blue light of factor energy flashed between the gaps of the machinery, like a beast that had just awakened and exhaled its first long sigh after hibernation.

As a result, Pace felt the same as before when the lights were not turned on. He still did not dare to move for fear of damaging some experimental equipment.

"Ugh..."

Pace sighed and looked at the lab table not far away. Carly was sitting there debugging something, and Lian was staring at Carly, fearing that she would do something immoral.

I feel like an outsider. Am I just a hired thug or something?

Pace turned around and wanted to chat with Perlis:

"Little Princess, what do you think..."

However, when he saw Perlis, she was lowering her head slightly and resting one hand on her forehead:

"Little princess? Are you okay?"

"Eh?"

Perlis raised her head and looked at Pesce. For just a moment, Pesce seemed to see a faint flash of red lightning in her eyes.

Is it an illusion?

"I... I'm fine, maybe I didn't sleep well," Perlis murmured, as if she was still worried about something.

"You should take good rest. You will be participating in the competition the day after tomorrow." Pace felt that things were not that simple, but he could only continue with what Perlis said. "Do you want to lie down for a while now?"
