Chapter 2721: Spies on All Sides
It is really unheard of that three people can capture a military base. Although it is not a military base in essence, but a scientific research base, there are many armed forces and soldiers.
Makiha and Kaji Ryoji were both confused. They did not expect that the Bethany base would be captured. Now they know that there are people behind Duran, but they may not have many people.
The killer also discovered this problem. In total, there are only three people including himself. Three people want to fight against Seele? This couple is too arrogant. Of course, the killer still has something he doesn't understand. How did these two people enter the virtual world and what are they going to do?
"This is the key." Duran got the key that the four Adams turned into. With this power, an ordinary person can emerge as a dark horse when merging.
Kaji is very nervous now, thinking about whether to find a way to leave with the key, after all, he needs the key to exchange the truth.
The impact fifteen years ago was promoted as a meteorite, but a smart person like Kaji would definitely not believe it. Under the impact, the world order was in chaos, and his parents all died. He only had a younger brother and a group of children to rely on stealing for a living. At that time, he was caught stealing alone. He betrayed others because he could not bear the torture. When he returned, everyone had been killed.
From then on, Jiaji had only one goal, which was to find the truth. He wanted to know whether it was the meteorite that made him so miserable, and whether it was the meteorite that caused all the tragedies.
If it was, then he had nothing to say. If not, then what caused these tragedies? Was it a natural disaster or a man-made disaster? If it was a natural disaster, it would be fine. If it was a man-made disaster, then why can the people who caused the trouble still live a life of luxury? And ordinary people have to endure these hardships?
After that, Jiaji studied hard and was admitted to university. He became a spy to monitor Seele. His real identity was a spy from the island country. As he investigated, Jiaji also found that the impact fifteen years ago was not as simple as a meteorite. It must be related to the apostles behind it, and it was also related to mysterious items such as the Dead Sea Scrolls. However, Jiaji's status in Seele was not high, and he was still too far away from the real truth.
At this time, Ikari Gendō found Kaji, because he also needed to plant spies in Seele. Since the island country had already arranged it, it was just right to use it directly.
Ikari Gendō hoped that Kaji could steal the key, and then he could give him all the secrets from fifteen years ago, and even the Human Completion Plan. Anyway, Ikari Gendō knew that Kaji could not stop the plan alone, and even the armies of various countries could not stop it, because Seele with the AT force field could crush the traditional army.
At this time, Kaji looked at the three people who had captured the base and wondered if he should trade with them? Maybe if he revealed his identity, he could get some intelligence.
"Can we talk?" Kaji suddenly called Duran and said he wanted to talk: "Let's talk alone."
Duran nodded and said, "Come on." The two came to the corridor, which was very quiet. Everyone else was locked in the command center, squatting on the ground and unable to move. Some people tried to contact outsiders, but as long as they moved, Denise could shoot and knock them out without turning around.
It was just like predicting the future. Anyone who tried to make trouble would be knocked out. Of course, there were also people who wanted to rely on their numbers to rush forward, but they were also knocked down by three people in a short time.
These three people were not normal people at all, they were just fighting machines.
"What do you want to say?" Duran looked at Jiaji calmly.
Jiaji said: "My name is Jiaji Conscience. I belong to the island country's intelligence department. My number is 11112222000. I am a spy planted by the island country in Seele. My goal is to find out the truth. We suspect that there are dangerous secrets inside Seele like you, so I can exchange information with you."
"What do you want?" Duran said.
"We suspect that Seele is plotting something. Since you are also an enemy of Seele, we can become allies." Jiaji said that the enemy of my enemy is my friend.
Duran looked at the unkempt young man and said, "I can consider it, but what can you do for me?"
"Give me the key, and I will send it to the Third New Tokyo City to gain Ikari Gendō's trust, and then I can send his information over." Kaji said, "You came from the Third New Tokyo City, you should know that it is the headquarters of Neuron, the place with the most resources, and the core part of the Seele plan. The information inside must be very important. Aren't you interested?" He didn't say that he and Ikari Gendō also had a secret deal. He was going to be a spy on all sides. On the surface, he was the intelligence department of the island country, secretly helping Seele to monitor Ikari Gendō, but in fact, he had a behind-the-scenes deal with Ikari Gendō, and now he wants to cooperate with Duran. He is really good at dancing with long sleeves.
Duran said, "Do you know what the key is?"
"It is the key that can complete Seele's final plan, and it is also something that Ikari Gendo wants very much."
Duran nodded and said, "Then how do you know I don't need the key? Maybe I also need the key to achieve my goal."
But Kaji shook his head and said, "I think you value Unit 5 more than the key." He observed for a long time before negotiating. He found that Duran was very interested when checking the information of Unit 5, but his eyes were very dull when investigating the key. He did not have the satisfaction of getting the coveted thing at all, so he judged that in Duran's eyes, Unit 5 was more important than the key.
Kaji really guessed it right. Unit 5 is a toy, and the key is nothing.
"You are very smart. We can make this deal, but how can you make me believe you? How can you prove that you will work for me after taking the key?" Duran asked.
Kaji had no way to prove it. He could only say: "I think you are so powerful, you must have a way to control me." But his real thought was that he would ignore Duran after knowing the truth.
Duran smiled slightly, showing confidence, and said leisurely: "You are right, I can control you, and I can be sure that you will come back to me." When Kaji knew the truth, he would definitely want to destroy it. At that time, he had no reinforcements and could only look for Duran.
In the TV version, Kaji was assassinated by a spy planted by Seele in the island country. Because he knew too much, he tried to send the information back to the island country intelligence agency, but he exposed himself and was killed directly. Of course, he left the information to Misato Katsuragi in advance, but in the end Misato Katsuragi could not do anything and was also killed in the final cleanup of the Neuron headquarters by Seele.
Therefore, although Kaji worked hard as an individual and finally used his ability to investigate the truth that ordinary people could not touch, in the end, his personal strength seemed weak in front of a behemoth like Seele. There was no way to stop the human completion plan, so Duran knew that if Kaji wanted to stop Seele, he would definitely come back to find him, because apart from himself as a time traveler, Kaji could not trust anyone else. Even the island country’s military was unable to defeat Seele and could only watch the human completion plan proceed.
Faced with Duran’s firm statement, Kaji wondered if the other party really knew him?
But regardless of this, Kaji flew directly to the third new Tokyo City in a fighter plane with the key and the news that Bethany Base had been captured.
