Chapter 99
unknown "Good evening, beautiful lady.
Panic is probably something that is not common on the faces of all superiors. As the executive officer of the Fatui, Sandonie is naturally one of the superiors.
So when this man with a strange mask appeared, Sandonie just glanced at him and continued to flip through the book.
"Well, let me introduce myself. I am the new twelfth executive officer of the Fatui, codenamed [Handsome]. I am here today to say hello."
The man said seriously, extending his hand, as if he was ready to shake hands with Sandone.
"Good evening, Mr. Lidao. If you want to pretend again next time, please be more serious... At least, please don't be so narcissistic."
Sandoni stood up and said politely while holding the"book" to distance himself from Lidao.
Not long ago, a secret letter came from the Kingdom of Winter. It was sent by [Clown].
Although it was called a secret letter, Sandoni knew that he was definitely not the only one who received it.
The content was asking about [Madam] Rosalin's"love".
Sandoni didn't think it was strange. If it was someone else, such as his own love problem, that person would not care so much.
But when it came to Rosalin... it was indeed strange.
Unlike other people who received the"secret letter", Sandoni had some guesses about this"lover".
It was the manager of Lidao who appeared when Rosalin just left.
Although she didn't know the reason, she thought it was better to keep a distance from Lidao.
"Boring."
Lidao walked over bored and sat directly on the chair where Sandonie had just sat.
Sandonie:"What's your purpose?"
Lidao:"I want to see beautiful women."
Sandonie:"……"
Although he said so, Lidao's eyes did not leave the sealed laboratory, and he did not put down the reactor in his hand.
There were many disassembled weapons in the laboratory, which were roughly neatly stacked on both sides of the room. The surrounding walls looked bumpy, as if more than one explosion had occurred.
From the outside of the room, it can be seen that it was originally a corridor, which was directly converted into an operating room. The lighting was soft, and there were bookshelves on both sides, as well as many exhibits, and even sofas and beds.
Lidao was sitting at the table where Sandoni had just sat. In addition to the black tea and snacks in front of him, there were various record documents, photos, and a lot of equipment that Lidao could not understand.
One of them was a small gadget similar to a safe. Judging from the size and the shape of the grooves inside, it was probably used to hold the reactor in Lidao's hand.
"Please go ahead."
Sandoni walked to the sofa with a book in his arms and sat down, ignoring him.
"I remember reminding you not to research Honkai energy anymore, right?" Lidao said
"I call that inducement, inducement for me to continue my research."
Sandoni shook his head and said calmly:
"And the results are proportional to the price paid... I know what I am doing, please rest assured"
"Everyone says so."
When Shibao ran out of Tianming, he thought he had it under control, but when he looked back, he saw that half of Tianming was smoking.
"Your reactor doesn't even have any protective device, and you plan to use it directly?"
"Protective device? Have you ever thought that I actually added protection to the device I used?"
Sandoni asked with a smile.
Lidao:"No... After all, I know nine out of ten about this thing."
"……"
Santonie was stunned for a moment:
"Are you here just to preach? Or to see my research results?"
She didn't care what Li Dao said, because the other party was obviously arguing.
"Buzz."
The next moment, something that confirmed her guess appeared.
A light curtain was projected, and a small black lady appeared from it.
"Captain, the mission target has been cleared... Please open the door."
In the communication screen sent by Bronya, Sandone saw the place where he was holding the dead soldiers.
""Okay."
The space channel was opened, and the little lady quickly came out.
Then she nodded slightly to Sandonie who was sitting on the sofa, which was very much like... provocation.
"I guess my former assistants have been eliminated, right?"
Sandonie looked at Bronya with a complicated look and spoke softly.
The first person who was infected and eroded by the Honkai energy and became a dead soldier was her most capable assistant... The people the doctor wanted to leave were not important, except for the one at the beginning.
"If there are people you care about there... I'm sorry to tell you, they are actually dead."
Lidao put the reactor in the safe and closed it, then stood up to block Bronya and face Sandone's sight.
"Well, what's next? After cleaning up the assassins, are you going to clean up the culprit, me?"
After hearing this, Sandonie felt more relaxed and calm again.
"If you kill a wooden puppet, there will be iron puppets, stone puppets, cloth puppets, and inflatable puppets."
Lidao waved his hand and denied Sandonie's remarks:
"It is better to relieve it than to block it... Although in essence, I am the one who caused the collapse. As long as I am still selling things, this kind of thing will continue. Do I have to end it myself?"
Sandoni:"That's a good idea."
Lidao:"……I'll just assume you're venting your anger."
"So, what do you mean by sparse...?" Santoni nodded and asked again.
"Your ambition will grow bigger and bigger. There is no denying that after solving the small-scale Honkai energy, you will move towards the research of large-scale energy... I guess you have noticed Hyperion in the game?"
"Of course, it can drive such a huge flying warship, so isn't the reactor worth studying?"
Sandoni's eyes were shining with stars:
"And those Titan mechas, the Destiny Mechas……"
"So, sparseness means making you aware of the danger of collapse... After you understand its danger, you will naturally be more cautious."
Lidao held a red feather in his hand and slowly approached.
Sandonie frowned slightly:"This is……"
Lidao:"Yu Duchen, you will hear this name in the game sooner or later. Now, take a nap."
The red feathers slowly fell from the sky...
Then she lost consciousness and fell on the sofa.
"This reminded Bronya of the time when the monitor appeared in her dream.
"When she wakes up, she will understand the danger of Honkai."
Lidao said, taking a piece of dessert from the plate on the table and putting it in his mouth.
"It tastes good, worthy of being eaten by big shots."
Lidao's eyes lit up, and he took another piece and put it next to Bronya's mouth:
"come……"
Bronya looked at him helplessly and opened her mouth:"Ah~ Hmm."
But it tasted really good.
"What kind of illusion did the captain create for her?"
After finishing her food, Bronya asked while Lidao wiped the corners of her mouth.
"She...is experiencing what this world looks like after it collapses"
——
The next day,
Miss Puppet woke up from her dream. Her clear eyes were now cloudy and dull, like a puppet that had been broken.
"Outlying islands...it's better to relieve traffic than to block...you didn't use this word well……"
She stood up from the sofa, manipulated the elemental force, and triggered some mechanism. The wall opened and three bionic dolls walked out.
""My Lord." The puppet maids bowed respectfully.
"You two, go get the reactor out of the box and help her install it."
Santonie pinched her brows, and in her mind, she kept recalling the scene in her dream:
"The collapse is too dangerous...
Even if I stop researching, there will always be someone who won't stop...
So...
Before the disaster comes, let the sword in your hand become sharper...
This is the real...
It is better to open than to block."
