Chapter 165: Nameless Fire, Mephis's Answer
At the [Giant Ring] base, Yang Hui, Graham, and Yu Lin sent the machine back to [Bai Ze] for repair, and then went directly to Fleet's office.
"Are you going to have another mission? Commander-in-Chief Asuno."
"No, just a private chat."
Upon hearing this, the serious expressions on the faces of the three people immediately disappeared without a trace. Yang Hui and Graham sat down indifferently, and Yu Lin smiled gently again and sat next to Yang Hui.
"Then can't you let your brother and sister-in-law take a break? They are also very tired after the battle." Yang Hui complained.
"Are you tired at this level? It seems that you are also slacking off." Fleet had a playful smile on his face.
"Bullshit! Ten minutes, eight X-Rounders, you try?"
"It seems that you have been a little arrogant recently, what's wrong? Do you want to practice?"
"Uh..."
The eyes of Yang Hui and Graham conveyed an obvious meaning to Fleet: "You want to play with your brother again."
This made Fleet sweat coldly, and his mind unconsciously recalled the days when he was trained by the two together. When he thought of that scene, Fleet couldn't help but shudder.
"Ahem, let's talk about business." In order not to return to the hell of the past, and to maintain the majesty of the commander-in-chief, Fleet cleverly changed the subject.
"Every time you are like this, you have something to give us to do. Tell me, what dirty work is this time?" Yang Hui pulled the corner of his mouth and didn't continue to tease Fleet.
"Don't worry, it's not a difficult thing." Fleet grinned.
Hearing this, Yang Hui, Graham and Yu Lin all smiled and didn't care. When did Fleet not say this? But it is true. This sentence was originally said to Yang Hui and the other two. It does not apply to other people.
So far, none of the tasks that Fleet personally assigned to the [Tianren] Brigade is simple. It is not difficult for Yang Hui and his team, but it is like sending them to see the god of death for ordinary troops.
"In this battle, I believe you have also discovered the gap between us and VEGAN."
"Hmm..."
The three were silent, which was regarded as tacitly agreeing with Fleet's point of view.
"After decades of unremitting efforts, the gap between the quality of soldiers and the level of technology has become much smaller. The problem is..."
"X-Rounder?"
"Yes, I admit that this ability that can only be used for combat is indeed a degeneration of humans back to beasts, but it is undeniable that this power can bring great help to the war." Fleet said.
Yang Hui and Graham are both people who look down on the ability of X-Rounder, but they cannot deny Fleet's point of view. After all, apart from the three of them, there is really no fourth B-class pilot in the entire federation. Even Fleet himself is only B-, let alone others.
To reach B level, it is not only hard training that can be achieved. It not only requires a certain talent, but also requires countless life-and-death battles to accumulate experience.
The [Tianren] Squadron has trained a large number of elite pilots for the Federation, and there are also many ace pilots, but they are only at the C+ level, and it takes a lot of time to train. If they want to break through to B-, it depends on their own luck.
However, the X-Rounder ability, a cheating device, can allow D-level minnow pilots to immediately have C-level abilities. As long as they practice diligently and master the X-Rounder ability, it is inevitable to grow to C+. With a little more effort, it is easy to grow to B-, and even to B level or even B+, A, etc. It is not impossible to surpass Yang Hui, Graham and Yu Lin.
The special ability of each world is a cheating device, plus people who are originally the chosen ones of this world, to be honest, as long as they can grow smoothly, there is no limit in the future.
"You want us to train more X-Rounders? You think too highly of us. First of all, Graham and I are not X-Rounders." Yang Hui spread his hands, indicating that he was powerless.
"It doesn't matter. The Federation actually started researching X-Rounders ten years ago. Although it lags behind VEGAN, it still has some results..."
"Flitt, why didn't I know about this?" Yang Hui interrupted Fleet, his voice a little cold.
"...Different functions, the research institute and the military are relatively independent, and it is highly confidential. I only knew it after I was promoted to commander-in-chief."
"You should know what I hate the most."
"I know, but the Federation's X-Rounder Research Institute is of a very high level. Even if I am the commander-in-chief of the Federation Army, I am not qualified to give them orders. That research institute is directly under the Federation's top leaders..."
"Bang~!"
Yang Hui punched the table in front of Fleet and looked at him coldly.
"Is it Orfia?"
"...Yes."
"Can you do it?"
"Yes, but it's not time yet."
"..."
After Yang Hui and Fleet looked at each other for a few seconds, he turned around and left with Yulin, without any smile on his face.
Graham shrugged and did not leave immediately. He knew that it was his turn to clean up the mess at this time.
"Don't worry too much, Fleet, Yang Hui is just..."
"I know, Graham, I know everything. In fact...if I could, I would also like to destroy that research institute immediately." Fleet said with a gloomy face.
"Well, it seems that the younger brother has finally grown up and can understand the older brother." Graham smiled.
In fact, Graham is also very disgusted with the inhumane and immoral experiments. It is understandable that war will do whatever it takes to win the final victory. After all, there is a future only after the war is won, but Graham, as an upright soldier, still prefers to win the victory with upright means, and there is no need to use some inhumane means and methods for victory.
So it is just disgust, not to the extent of Yang Hui's deep hatred, so he can calm down and be a commentator for Yang Hui.
"Soon, we will be able to obtain the key evidence soon, and then..."
"Well, this is your task, we are only responsible for the military responsibility." Graham also stood up and prepared to leave, but Fleet stopped him and handed him a document.
"By the way, the intelligence department has sent an uncertain piece of information. Please pass it to Yang Hui."
...
Yang Hui took You Lin back to [Bai Ze], explained a few words to Angola Zuo, and returned to his room. Yang Hui knew what kind of people the senior federal officials were. The experiment of X-Rounder ability users was definitely not a normal experiment. This reminded him of the [Superman Agency] in the Gundam OO world.
He admitted that in order to enhance the country's strength and gain more advantages in the war, it was necessary to use any means, but he just couldn't tolerate this kind of experiment that broke the moral bottom line, especially the [Superman Agency], where all the experimental subjects selected were children.
As a soldier, isn't it to protect civilians? Isn't it to create a happy world for the flowers of the future to grow up?
The soldiers on the front line have not died yet, and the targets that need to be protected in the rear are used as experimental subjects. How can this be accepted?
You Lin just quietly accompanied Yang Hui, without persuasion or comfort. She knew that Yang Hui was willing to listen to others' opinions and was also a very opinionated person. As long as he decided something, no one could change his choice.
Yang Hui just needed this tranquility at this time to calm the nameless fire in his heart.
"Huh~ I got angry again by accident." It took a while for Yang Hui to adjust his mentality and said half-jokingly and half-self-deprecatingly.
"It's okay, Fleet will understand."
"Really, I am an incompetent brother." Yang Hui smiled bitterly while covering his face.
"Well, it's true." You Lin nodded with a smile.
"Shouldn't you refute me at this time?"
"Because you are telling the truth, why should I refute?" You Lin tilted her head with a playful smile on her face.
"Haha, that's right." As he said that, Yang Hui lay down and put his head on his soft legs.
"Beep beep beep..."
At this moment, the call from the door rang, causing the nameless fire in Yang Hui's heart to rise again.
"Who? There is no legitimate reason to believe that I will beat you so hard that your mother won't recognize you!"
"Oh, it seems that I came at the wrong time. Fleet has another task for us, but you ran away first."
"Tsk, what a bummer."
Yang Hui had no choice but to get up and open the door for Graham. The playful smile on his face made Yang Hui want to punch him.
"What? How about I come back later?"
Yang Hui: (╬ ̄俣)
"Bang~"
"Ah~!"
...
It took Yang Hui three minutes to finish reading the intelligence. After thinking for five minutes, he asked Graham: "How credible do you think this intelligence is?"
"20%." Graham rubbed his purple, blue, and swollen right eye and answered. The resentful expression on his face made Yu Lin cover her mouth and hold back her laughter.
"Then go." Yang Hui put down the file and decided to go.
"Aren't you afraid it's a trap?" Graham asked, although the corners of his mouth also curled up with interest.
"You are not afraid, so why would I be afraid? Besides, will it be useful?"
"Of course... it is useless."
"That's it. If it is fake, it is just doing what we have been doing all the time. If it is true... we can also obtain X-Rounder research data."
"Hey! You are not..." Graham was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and frowned at Yang Hui.
"Of course I won't do that, but I am thinking... mechanical technology can be brought back to Promise Fortress, then... what about biological technology?" Yang Hui said.
"Hmm? You are planning to!"
"Mephis, can biological research such as Transformers and X-Rounders that promote human evolution or degeneration be carried out in Promise Fortress?" Yang Hui directly sought the answer from Mephis.
【Yes, but with the current authority, it is not enough to expand the research projects and strengthen modules of the institute. 】
"That is to say..."
[Although the commander's decision is correct, the higher the level of the central hall, the more Promise Fortress will recover, and the more manpower will be needed, but it is recommended that the commander unlock the authority first, so that he can obtain more growth paths and improve the recovery efficiency of Promise Fortress. Moreover... the commander needs to unlock the authority to a certain level before he is qualified to know more of the truth. 】
