"Ling, I'm back." On the tarmac covered in dense fog, a huge humanoid weapon, Patil Matil, who Ling called Mom and Dad, landed slowly. As soon as the girl jumped down, she heard a familiar gentle voice, and couldn't help but be happy: "Levy! ”

"I've heard it all." Rubbing Ling's hair affectionately, Levi showed a rare expression of helplessness, "It's not a small matter...... I heard that almost all of them alarmed the appearance of the Kingdom Army? ”

"Hey...... It fell short, and it was solved when it came to the back. Ling pouted, "It's a little early to manipulate those puppet agents to drive the chariot...... If it were a real person, maybe it would have been possible. It's all to blame for Levi, stingy. ”

"Really, I've said I'm going to have a hard time mustering them...... right," Levi smiled wryly, "but you're doing a good job, aren't you?" ”

"Hmm. The tea party was very fun, and the data from the experiment was well collected. Shaking his arm slightly, Patil Matiel handed the black copy of the Gospel to Levi's hand, "By the way, hasn't Joshua found it yet?" ”

"He...... The man was not caught, but traces of his actions were found. Levy paused, "The humanoid weapons that were placed to attract the attention of the regular army were basically destroyed by him. No trace was left. ”

"After all, if you're hiding from the cat, Ling is not his opponent." Ling nodded approvingly, "But why doesn't he just refuse to return to the association?" And Estelle said they must find Joshua...... What the hell is going on? ”

"Rei...... Don't take all the words of the professor seriously. Levi was silent for a moment, carefully considering his words, and said, "I didn't kill them, not only because of my and the professor's instructions, but also because of Ling's judgment in it, right?" ”

"Yes...... The main thing is that everyone has a lot of fun with me. A smile regained on Rei's face, "And speaking of which—the guy Brother Levi mentioned...... But I saw through Ling from the beginning! ”

"Well, if it were someone else, I'd be surprised by that...... But if it's him......" After listening to Ling's story, Levi once again showed a look of surprise that contained some kind of naturalness, "I'm not surprised that I can do anything......"

"Maybe it's a master of intelligence processing? If you want to compete, Ling won't lose. Ling squeezed her little fist and said proudly.

"I'm afraid it's not like yours......" Levi's heart ached, she knew very well how Rei's far beyond ordinary people's computing and intelligence processing skills came from, it was even more cruel darkness than her own experience, "the feeling he gave people...... How to put it, it's like a godsend......"

"Hmm...... Lévy said something he didn't understand again. Frowning and deciding not to dwell on the strange words that Levi occasionally came up with, Ling lifted the hem of her skirt and ran lightly, "By the way, Levi, let's not talk about this, let's play poker with Ling." ”

"Hmm...... Although the professor said let me go to him for a while...... Forget it, I'll listen to you. Professor that guy...... It's not bad to get him anxious once in a while. Unconsciously, the corners of Levy's mouth hung with a rare mischievous hint - and relief.

"Rei...... The ice in your heart, has they pried loose unconsciously......"

——————————————————————————--

"Haha!" Perth Misty Canyon, the Royal Army Air Base, the mist, and the same is true of the military camp that should be very quiet. However, a wild laugh shattered the rare tranquility in the fortress.

"Big brother! Don't laugh so loudly! Jill hurriedly covered his big brother's mouth - even though he was just as excited about what was coming, he kept his most basic sanity like his reckless big brother.

"It doesn't really matter." Joshua coldly picked up a bunch of keys from the stunned Kingdom Army soldiers in front of him, "All the soldiers in this vicinity have been cleaned up by us, so it won't be a problem for him to laugh twice." ”

"Hey, you're always talking so coldly." Jost stretched out in a depressed face, "And speaking of which, when you fought with us before, did you show mercy to your subordinates?" ”

"yes...... You're as tough as a monster. Jill was also amazed.

"No...... At that time, it was just that my "function" had not yet been opened...... I will be able to think and act in a very rational way for the purpose. It's just a little difference. Joshua's serious explanation confused Jost, but Jill promptly changed to a way that could be easily understood: "That is, the power has not changed. It's just a more thorough use of this power, right? ”

"Haha, isn't that bad...... So now you should be on par with the captain of that secret service, right? ”

"Nope. This can't be done. Joshua shook his head, indifferently acknowledging the fact, "My abilities have been specially enhanced for assassination and covert activities. If it is a one-on-one combat power competition, it is impossible to compare with the "Sword Emperor". As long as this person is around, I can't go head-on with the association. Just like the name "Black Fang...... Only sharp teeth are exposed in the dark. ”

"You ......" Listening to Joshua's cold confession without the slightest emotion, Jost was speechless for a moment, but looked at the young man's handsome face with painful eyes.

"Alright, let's not talk about that." Joshua decisively ended the chatter, "Go on." ”

As Joshua said, all the defensive facilities arranged by the garrison of the Kingdom Army in the fortress were found by Joshua one by one and easily dismantled. It didn't take long for the four of them to break out of the outermost tunnel and arrive at the tarmac, where they managed to meet the ultimate goal of the operation, the Bobcat. Doron and Jill yelled excitedly as they rushed into the control room to prepare for their eventual escape.

“…… Reinforcements will be coming soon, and I'm here to entangle them, so get on board and get ready to start. Seeing that Jost was still standing in place, smiling at himself without following her brothers, Joshua lightly dropped a command, but in exchange for a girl's laughter: "You like to pretend to be cool, but in fact, it's still very tender." Hee-hee, you let us start the airship and use ourselves here as a reserve...... Aren't you afraid that we will leave you behind and run for your life? ”

"How could a good old man like you do such a thing?" Listening to the girl's teasing, even though his expression was cold and his expression was guarded, Joshua still showed a smile.

"You...... You're the good guy! Jost's face flushed, and he was about to continue to say something, but his voice was interrupted by the reinforcements who arrived: "Ahhh ”

"The soldiers of Erebonia?" Looking at the comer's uniform, which was completely different from the uniform of the Kingdom Army, Jost recognized the familiar golden military horse symbol almost at a glance, "How can you be here—and Joshua still knows him?" ”

"It's just a one-sided relationship." Joshua's expression became serious, and the knives in his hands clenched, "I'm afraid he came here to recover this airship before the non-aggression pact was signed." ”

"As you might expect. In fact, even if you snatch this airship, it won't have any serious impact on us...... But now that I've seen it, I can't do anything about it! In the hand of the comer, the big sword was erected, and the fighting spirit was strong, "Let me re-report my name!" Belonging to the 3rd Imperial Mecha Division, Major Mura Fandel. ”
