Ark Heroine Development Plan

“…” Xiao Xiao He stopped talking.

“So, it’s really amazing.”

The woman exclaimed with joy, "Xiao Xiao He, do you think...will there be a creature that can rival me in the future?"

"This is the only thing I can be sure of."

Xiao Xiao He answered with great certainty: "That is absolutely impossible."

"Hahahaha, don't be so harsh."

Guan Yueli laughed heartily. "Before I went into seclusion in the mountains, I never imagined that people two or three hundred years later could create such a powerful iron lump. Even the most talented Yin-Yang Master couldn't match it. It's a human creation."

"Lord!"

Xiao Xiao He seemed a little annoyed: "I just... I just can't easily cause the same level of damage. It's not difficult to defeat this tin can!"

The space around the crow suddenly began to distort, as if something was trying to come out.

"Okay, okay, I was just kidding."

Guan Yueli patted the crow's head and said, "That piece of iron is a gift for Xiao Chen. You can't break it first."

"..."

The crow flapped its wings and remained silent.

"Come to think of it, that brat Wei Yanwu is really a gambler."

Guan Yueli cast his gaze in the direction of the city's most prestigious mansion: "Hasn't he ever considered...how much he would lose if I didn't take action?"

"Master, I hate that man who is always scheming." Xiao Xiao He said in a low voice.

"Hmm? I don't mind."

Guan Yueli narrowed her eyes and smiled, "Don't you think... it's funny that they put so much effort into playing chess, and then have to look at my expression in the end?"

"And being able to bring this idea to my mind again and again, Xiao Wei is quite a powerful person."

"Although I don't want to admit it...but Ah Yue married a good man, and she also holds a high position in the family. Very good, very good~"

Xiao Xiao He didn't say anything. His master's thoughts would always turn to inexplicable places.

"Master, the girl appeared."

Xiao Xiao He, who had been watching the movements below, suddenly spoke.

"Oh? So fast, she looks so motivated. I wonder how she can... this... Xiao Xiao He, what do you young people call this iron lump?"

"Gundam? Hmm... This should be called a large mecha or something like that. It's far inferior to the Gundam."

"Ohhh! Mecha! I wonder how long Xiao Chen can last in this mecha."

As he was speaking, the five-meter-tall beast-like mecha that was wreaking havoc on the street launched several missiles, destroying most of the street.

"Ah, never mind. It's not like we can see how long she can last under this iron lump anyway."

The bad woman raised the corner of her mouth: "I came to see how long you can hold out against your own self-esteem."

She jumped down from the sky.

……

Chen now knew the source of the screams of shock and anger that came from the communicator just now.

"This kind of thing..."

Chen, hiding under the ruins, looked out and observed the steel beast wreaking havoc on the street, his eyes twitching.

The rough and brutal splicing method, with a copper-brown surface covered with rust, makes this steel beast exude a rough and wild atmosphere, and it does not look like a product of precision manufacturing at all.

Because, of course, it is impossible for an unknown force of "unknown origin" to use high-precision technology to create a perfect beast mecha. The rough manufacturing process, various pieced-together parts and materials, and brutal control methods are more suitable for the identity of terrorists of unknown origin.

And they, of course, cannot really be terrorists of unknown origin.

In recent months, under Wei Yanwu's operation, Longmen has reached many trade agreements, including four countries, more than ten groups, and covering a number of industries including industry, mining, information technology, etc.

There are many people who hope that these agreements can be reached smoothly, but at the same time, there are also many people who hope that these agreements will fail as soon as possible.

It is not difficult to make these agreements fail, as long as it can be proved that Longmen is "not worth cooperating with".

And the simplest and most brutal way is... destruction.

Disrupt the order of this city, undermine the security here, and prove to those who want to cooperate with Longmen that you can't even do business here with peace of mind.

This long-planned terrorist operation by Ursus came into being.

According to the combat plan and prediction, this operation can completely destroy nearly one-fourth of Huamen District before Longmen's countermeasures arrive. Even though Huamen District is just a very ordinary and even backward urban area in Longmen's lower city, the impact it causes is enough to make the groups that want to cooperate with Longmen re-evaluate their intention to cooperate.

"Damn it...are all the police officers in this district killed?!"

Chen kept shouting into the intercom: "Are there any survivors? Are there any survivors?"

No one responded.

In such pure and extreme violence, it is normal that there are no survivors.

boom--

Chen punched the ruins, and spider-web-like cracks appeared on the wall, just like her...uncontrollable anger.

She thought she could do something in this operation, but just like before, and just like before, she... could do nothing!

This time, she couldn't even stop the monster because... she would really die.

This steel beast would not listen to his lectures with great interest like Guan Yueli did. It would only swing its giant metal claws to tear him to pieces.

And it was at this moment that Chen Zai suddenly realized that the reason she dared to stand in front of Guan Yueli was not just because of her courage, but also because... she knew that Guan Yueli would not kill her - she knew that she was bound to lose, and Xia Shi would definitely be taken away by Guan Yueli. No matter how she struggled, it would be useless, so she had the determination to fight to the death.

Only then did she realize that the insignificant victory she had achieved was just a gift from Guan Yueli.

Because now she did not make the bold statements she made to Guan Yueli, but stood alone in front of the steel beast.

Courage should not be foolish and arrogance. She told herself that the current choice was the right one.

She should have waited for her teammates to arrive, for support to arrive, and then taken care of the monster together. This was the correct thing to do. Even if the monster was wreaking havoc, she should have remained calm and waited. This was the correct thing to do.

Yes, that's right.

This kind of correctness made Chen feel... humiliated.

Such correctness made every word she said in front of Guan Yueli seem like a huge joke.

However, at this moment, Chen suddenly heard the sound that she least wanted to hear.

"Oh my, isn't this... Officer Chen?"

She floated down from the sky like an immortal descending to the human world.

Guan Yueli said with a smile:

"Are you lost? Do you need me to take you home?"

"This isn't a place for children to run around."

Chapter 41 - Guan Yueli: Don’t say that times have changed anymore

Guan Yueli's appearance seemed to confirm everything Chen had just thought.

Because her tone and her eyes all said one thing—

She came to laugh at herself.

Chen, who had made bold statements to this woman not long ago, was now helpless in the face of this steel beast.

"It's really dangerous here..."

The barefoot woman in a kimono, who looked completely out of place in the devastated scene around her, tucked her hands into her sleeves with a look of astonishment.

"The scene on the ground is truly tragic..."

Guan Yueli slowly walked to the side of the street, looking at the steel beast wantonly ravaging the street, his eyes suddenly lit up:

"Oh! Looking at it this way, this mecha seems to be even more handsome than I imagined."

"What are you doing here...?"

Behind her came Chen's voice, filled with suppressed humiliation and anger.

"Huh? I'm just strolling around." Guan Yueli looked innocent. "You're not going to restrict even this little bit of my freedom, are you, Officer Chen?"

"Walk... stroll?"

Chen gritted his teeth, veins bulging on his hand that gripped the knife handle tightly.

She took several deep breaths, forcibly suppressed the emotions churning in her heart, and pushed Guan Yueli expressionlessly:

"Leave here now, immediately! This is a high-risk war zone. All unauthorized people must stay away immediately!"

Guan Yueli, who was being pushed, pointed at himself with a strange look on his face: "Irrelevant people? Me?"

"What else?" Chen sneered, "You want to say that you have something to do with this?"

"That's none of my business."

"Then hurry up and go!"

While pushing Guan Yueli, Chen looked back at the mechanical monster vigilantly.

The steel beast likely had no interest in them, as Chen had already tried before, trying to distract it and minimize the damage. However, its purpose was clear: destruction, destruction, destruction. It ignored Chen completely, dropping a random bomb and continuing its rampage. So, Chen, helpless, could only wait for support.

"Xiao Chen, are you trying to... protect me?"

"What nonsense are you talking about."

Chen frowned. "Since you're in Longmen, I have the obligation and responsibility to protect you. It has nothing to do with who you are, so... leave now!"

"Can……"

Guan Yueli turned her head curiously and looked down at her:

"I don't think I need your protection."

"..."

His head was pressed against the woman's back, the smooth and delicate kimono felt wonderful to the touch, but Chen was in no mood to appreciate these things.

Guan Yueli looked at her with amusement: "Why aren't you talking?"

"…Whether you need it or not is your business!"

Chen clenched his fists and pushed Guan Yueli hard again.

"Whether I should do it or not is my duty!"

Yes, why did this woman in front of her need her protection? But in Chen's eyes, there was no such thing as "don't do it if you don't need it".

Responsibility is a word full of glory, but also... a very heavy word.

"Oh, okay, okay, I get it. Stop pushing me away." Guan Yueli raised her hands helplessly. "I'll leave after I finish what I need to do."

Chen immediately became alert: "What are you doing!"

"Well... before that, I also want to ask you this question, Officer Chen."

Guan Yueli narrowed her eyes, and her smile... Chen was very familiar with it.

That kind of scrutinizing, condescending and arrogant smile.

"What are you going to do now?"

"Wait for my teammates to arrive, and then defeat this big guy, right?"

"Ah...of course, of course."

The bad woman nodded and walked briskly among the ruins. She sat down casually on a large piece of rubble, supported her chin with one hand, tilted her head and looked at Chen, the smile on her face becoming more and more intense.

"After all, Xiao Chen, you can't do anything right now. If you go up and fight that big guy head-on, you will definitely die. Waiting here for support is the best option, isn't it?"

"Even though I said before, 'I'm ready to take it all on myself!'"

Guan Yueli deliberately put on an awe-inspiring expression as he spoke, then sighed, "But there's nothing I can do about it now. Who hasn't boasted a few times when they were young, right?"

"what!"

As if she suddenly remembered something, the woman punched her palm:
