Byron's Blade

A severe headache hit her, and the feeling of suffocation made her open her eyes in shock.Then, her rapid panting sounded in the dark space.

The aches and pains all over her body slowly spread to her limbs, her breathing slowed down, and she frowned tightly.Cold sweat condensed on her forehead, and she managed to raise her right hand and put it on her forehead.

Cold touch, no warmth in the palm.

Where is this place, what happened, her mind is confused, and she can't remember it for the time being.

Her vision gradually became clear, she struggled to sit up, looked around, and found that this was a closed room.There was nothing in the room, only the cold iron bed she was sitting on, which was placed against the wall and fixed to the wall and the floor.There is a folding table on the wall opposite the head of the bed, which can be turned down and retracted to the wall when not in use.At the foot of the bed, there is a washbasin in the corner, and there is no mirror. Next to the washbasin is a toilet.

This room gave her a very intuitive impression - a prison cell.

She sat on the edge of the bed, her elbows propped weakly on her lap, her back arched.She saw the clothes on her body, a simple cloth shirt, made of cotton and linen, probably blue in color.The room was so dark that it was difficult to distinguish colors accurately.

Memories gradually flooded up like a tide, and she raised her hand to cover her cheek in pain, her long black hair, her bangs poked her eyes a little, and she pushed her back.With a deep sigh, she trembled with her left hand, turned the knob of the folding table, and put the table down.

This movement was unconscious and purposeless, she just wanted to do it to distract the pain and anxiety in her heart.However, she discovered that after the folding table was put down, there was a display screen embedded in the wall.At this moment, the display screen is in a standby state, and the screen saver screen with red, yellow, and green light beams is floating on the screen, bringing some light to the dark room.

Her dark eyes reflected the trajectory of the three-color beam of light. For a long time, she did not blink, but just stared at this picture in a daze.After an unknown amount of time, her body gradually began to tremble slightly, and tears began to glisten in her crystal-black pupils. She sobbed silently, tears slid down her cheeks, and she buried her face in her hands.

Silence, oppression and solemnity spread in the room, time seemed to stand still, and the picture froze.

Suddenly, there was a sound of unlocking the locked door in the room, the door opened, and the outside light shone in.She didn't turn her head to look at first, she still covered her cheeks with her hands, and quietly wiped away her tears.

There was the sound of footsteps, the sound of military boots on the ground.The ground was made of metal, and her feet, who were not wearing shoes, felt icy cold when they stepped on it.

"Chief pastor, it's time for interrogation."

It was a deep male voice, very strange, Mu Li had never heard it before.She didn't answer or make any movement for a while, but the other party came in, dragged her up without any explanation, and put handcuffs and shackles on her.

"Sorry, Chief Pastor, you are too capable, we have to guard against it, and offended you." The tone of the other party's words was very polite, which was extremely inconsistent with what his subordinates were doing.

"Where is this place..." Mu Li didn't resist, because it was meaningless.She asked hoarsely, feeling that the voice didn't even belong to her.

"You'll soon find out."

The other party made a fool of himself, not because he didn't answer, but because there was no need for that.

There was really no need for that, Mu Li quickly clarified the answer by himself.There were a total of four officers who came to escort Mu Li, all wearing the sky camouflage combat uniforms of the 180th Air Force Division.The one who spoke first was an officer with the rank of major. He was of medium build, with a handsome face, brown hair and gray eyes. He seemed to be of European and American descent.They surrounded Mu Li in the center, walked through a long, inorganic metal corridor, took the elevator, and went all the way up.The elevators are equipped with transparent glass windows, which can be seen outside.She saw countless mechanical metals and gears operating in an orderly manner in the empty space.

"Zeus... is it so big inside?" Mu Li stared blankly at the scene outside, and murmured in a low voice.

"Our army's space extension and telescopic technology ranks second, and no one dares to claim the first. This is the latest research result of the Academy of Sciences. Presumably, the military research institute has not yet had such a technology." The major officer laughed flauntingly, his tone full It is contempt and ridicule.

"Our army"?Hehe, yes, if it wasn't Andres's relatives, how could they get into the eyes of these people?In the eyes of Andres, the troops under the other generals belonged to the foreign army.

Mu Li did not speak again, and the escorting officers also remained silent.Not long after, the elevator reached the top floor, and a mechanical female voice prompted:

"Arrived at the bridge."

The elevator door opened, and the officers escorted Mu Li out.The scene in front of me suddenly opened up, with a 360-degree panorama surrounding the exterior screen, and one could see thick clouds floating below, and the entire bridge was illuminated brightly by a thousand suns that had never been experienced before.On the bridge control platform, four officers sat side by side in the arc-shaped operating area.In the center, a woman in military uniform stood with her hands behind her back, with her back to Mu Li's direction and facing the large panoramic screen.The figure of her back seemed familiar, and Mu Li thought it was very familiar, but because of the confusion of his mind, he couldn't remember it for a while.

The female is holding an exquisite cane in her hand behind her back, wearing white gloves on her hand, standing close together with her feet in high-heeled military boots, her long black hair is coiled up, and she is wearing a military cap.Judging only from the back view, the soldier's audacity is not enough, but a bit more playful, elegant and beautiful.

The major officer escorting Mu Li stood at attention and saluted:

"Report to the lieutenant colonel! Bring it to Mu Li."

The female officer let out a chuckle, with a unique tone, like a bolt of lightning suddenly cracking in Mu Li's mind.She turned around, turned the cane in a beautiful circle, and stuck it on the deck of the bridge. She smiled and said:

"Second Lieutenant Mu... No, it should be more accurate to call Captain Mu. Long time no see."

"Pell Andres..." Mu Li said her name in a deep voice.

Pere's red lips were lightly pursed, and the corners of his lips curved beautifully. That Eurasian face was gentle and beautiful when I first saw it, but now it looks so cunning like a fox.Those moist eyes now shone with calculating light, full of the pride of the winner.

"Thanks to Captain Mu for still remembering the little girl, it's a little girl's honor." Pell bowed in a pretentious gesture.

"Hmph, you are the jewel in the palm of General Conrad, the famous singer in the army, how can I not see Mount Tai?" Mu Li asked sarcastically.

"When we met for the first time, the little girl really lost her composure. Let the head pastor see her drunken side. I was really ashamed. But this is also a kind of fate, come here, bring the wine." She didn't care about Mu Li's sarcasm , chuckled lightly.

There was a small wine cabinet in the corner of the bridge control room. A female officer received Pell's signal, and immediately saluted to express her order, and then went to pour the wine.Not long after, two whiskey glasses filled with half a glass of golden wine came over on a tray and presented them respectfully.

Pell reached out to take one of the cups, and the female officer brought the other cup to Mu Li.Mu Li didn't move, but stared at Pell with a stern expression.Pell smiled and said:

"If the shepherd leader is worried, you can drink my glass." After she finished speaking, she took a sip of the wine in her glass, raised the glass to indicate that it was not poisonous, then stepped forward, exchanged it with the glass on the tray, and took it away. I drank the cup of Muli and didn't touch it.

Mu Li lowered his eyes slightly, looking at the wine glass on the tray with her red lip marks on it, and picked it up calmly.Rotate to the other side and drink the wine in one gulp.The cold and spicy wine rolled down her throat and into her stomach, burning a flame, she frowned, clenched her teeth, and did not make a sound.

"Okay! Refreshing!" Pell praised, and then drank his glass of wine. The female officer stepped back with two empty glasses, and Pell approached Mu Li, raising his gloved hand to gently stroke her. His cheeks and eyes were full of scrutiny.

Mu Li didn't move at all, and didn't even frown.He just let her move with a blank face, like a wooden figure.

"I'm beginning to understand why my silly girlfriend loves you so madly. You are calm, open-minded, tenacious and never give in. Most importantly, you have a manly and feminine look. You can’t hold back your pretty face anymore.” Pell said softly, “I’ve been here for so long, don’t you really ask about the situation of Assassin and the Seahawks now?”

"If you want to tell me, you will naturally say it if I don't ask. If you don't want to tell me, it's useless for me to ask." Mu Li said lightly.

"Hahaha...Interesting, you are such an interesting person." Pere laughed heartily, "When I first met you, I thought you were a deep-rooted person. You acted like you didn't remember anything. It looks too similar. But it seems that I was wrong, you really don’t remember it. Sona is such a little villain, and he and his annoying father planned such a horrible variable like you. If it weren’t for I'm smart, my father's grand plans and wishes, wouldn't the great Andres family's century-old foundation be destroyed in one day?"

"Sona is in your hands?" Mu Li asked.

Pell turned to look at her, and smiled strangely: "You react very quickly. But it is true, you have already received the news of Sona's disappearance, and guessed that it might be related to me. But you have never thought that this ghost is not The scattered Zeus is actually me driving, and Conrad, who loves his daughter, will send his own daughter to chase you. This mission is very dangerous. I don’t want to come, but my father attaches great importance to you, really no Method."

Pell shook his head, pretending to be helpless.

"Your soul is very pure, so you are the only one who can pilot the Zeus. After all, this unprecedentedly powerful mech is controlled by mental power." Mu Li ignored her hypocrisy and revealed the truth with one sentence. .

Mu Li lamented in his heart, it seemed that the other three camouflaged teams they released failed to confuse Andres.They clearly and unequivocally understood that the real sampling force was this team.

Having said that, there was another notification sound from the elevator behind him, footsteps came, and a person was escorted over, standing side by side with Mu Li, Mu Li turned his head to look, his eyes gradually widened in surprise, Lips trembled slightly.

"Report to the lieutenant colonel, bring the hermit!"

"Old guy, do you know who is standing by your side now?" Pell's voice became sharper and meaner.

"I can't see anymore. Is there any point in asking me this question?" Mu Xin replied calmly, with infinite weakness in her voice.

"You...how could..." Mu Li's voice trembled, because standing beside her, Mu Xin's eyes were covered with blood scabs, his eyelids were sunken, and his eyeballs were obviously gone.The other party was even stingy at wiping off the blood stains on her face, the horrible scene made Mu Li's heart tremble, and the blood all over his body suddenly turned cold.

"My child...don't look at me..." Mu Xin turned her head away, "It's okay...I'm fine." She said lightly.

There was no time to hurt Mu Li, the elevators arrived one after another, and more and more people were brought to the bridge.

"Report to the lieutenant colonel, Lanny brought it!"

"Report to Lieutenant Colonel, Alita brought it!"

"...Brought to you!"

"..."

In the end, Lanny, Alita, Qiu Zheng, He Yingning, Mo Kexin, Zoe, Lin Zhao, Joan, Bailey, Dora, Robin Quinn, Xia Jie, Chris Fussman, Jill ·Valentine, Lillian Hoover, a total of 15 people brought all of them.Including Mu Xin and Mu Li, there are 17 people in total.Except for Mu Li and Mu Xin standing in front, everyone was forced to kneel on the bridge deck and lined up. The scene was really hard for Mu Li to describe, and he felt extremely sad and uncomfortable.Everyone was wearing the same prison uniform as Mu Li, and Dora was still unconscious and not yet awake, so she was transported here lying on the bed.Fortunately, Mu Li found that everyone behind him was still intact and not injured.She took a special look at Lan Ni, she was very calm and didn't say a word, Mu Li felt a little relieved.

And what Pell said next almost made Mu Li suffocate.

"Let us welcome all 17 survivors of the expedition with warm applause." Pell laughed loudly.

There were playful applause and unceremonious sarcasm laughter in the bridge, Mu Li gritted his teeth and closed his eyes in pain.So many familiar partners lost their lives in just an instant.The kind doctor Lu Fang, the enthusiastic Zhao Zilong, the old Li who drove him...so many elite fighters, so many comrades-in-arms died in this way for no apparent reason.All the rhetoric on the plane at the time of departure was all in vain.

The elevator went up for the last time, and the four people walked out of the elevator and came to Pell.

No.1 was tall and strong, and sat on the captain's chair unceremoniously. Pell actually bowed to him and saluted him.Mu Li looked at that person in amazement, and intuitively felt that this person was the one who sneaked up on her in the tent, then lured her to the center of the explosion, and finally sniped her with anti-equipment.Is this person... so high in status?What kind of identity is the person who can make Miss Andres salute?However, the brim of the big cap he was wearing was pressed too low, and he was sitting on the captain's chair against the light, so he couldn't see clearly.

The second person saluted Pell, dressed in a military uniform, with a medium build, sharp and capable.He has the face of an East Asian yellow man, and he stood aside after saluting.Mu Li stared at him steadfastly, but he glanced back, his eyes as cold as ice.Mu Li's heart trembled, and he briefly confirmed that this person was the one pretending to be Delia.

He was pushing a wheelchair in his hand, and a young man sat on the wheelchair. The young man hung his head, as if he had fallen asleep, skinny and haggard.But Mu Li recognized him at the first sight, this man was clearly Lan Ni's brother Sona!

The last person was Latia. She made a meeting ceremony in Atlantis. Per gracefully returned the salute and invited Latia to take a seat.Mu Li looked at Latia and clenched his fists.

When Latia sat down, Per said loudly:

"Okay, everyone is here, let's start. It's ten o'clock in the morning on January 1th, and the Zeus we're on is circling over Geneva. Come on, let me ask you where the IBM18 is hidden." Where. If you can’t answer, don’t blame me for being rude.”

The author has something to say: the fourth volume kicks off to see how these people "turned the tide".To be vaccinated in advance, there are not a few important characters sacrificed in this volume.
