Chapter 798: Turning Death into Life (please vote for this huge chapter)
The scattered moonlight shone on the silent city, and the light jetted behind the huge pure white light flickered for a moment, then changed its direction and slowly descended downwards.
Finally, the mecha stopped between abandoned shabby buildings, squatted down, and put his hands on the ground.
"Looks like we've arrived."
Gaster glanced around, pulled the young agent beside him and jumped out of the mecha's hand.
Then the mecha retracted its palm, stood up again, and spewed out a somewhat unstable light from its back, flying into the air.
"Oh, you're still alive."
A slightly surprised voice came from the side.
In the immersive night, a plump red-haired woman slowly walked out of the dark street holding a thin cigarette.
"Lena?"
When Gaster saw the woman in front of him, his expression was obviously stunned.
"What, are you surprised?"
Lena smiled and walked towards Gaster and the two.
The young agent subconsciously clenched the submachine gun in his hand. He knew that although the FBI and the Security Federation now have a cooperative relationship, their previous relationship was not harmonious, and local conflicts often occurred.
Gaster reached out and pressed down the submachine gun on the young agent's hand, looking at Lena who was basically uninjured, and then looked back at the direction where the mecha disappeared, "Is this your hidden force?"
"Director Gaster, it's not like you don't know my rules."
Lena took off the cigarette in her hand and flicked the ashes.
"This is intelligence, right?"
Gaster nodded, "How much do you want?"
"We can be considered allies now,"
Lena was holding a cigarette in her mouth as a black SUV drove out from behind her, "This news is for nothing."
She paused and looked at Gaster with a smile in her eyes, "Do you think we can afford a mecha?"
Gaster's eyes paused slightly, thoughtfully.
Then he raised his head and looked at the dark off-road vehicle, "What are you doing?"
"I accepted a commission,"
Lena turned around and opened the SUV door, "Find you a safe house and an underground doctor."
She looked back at Gaster and said, "Get in the car."
"Director?"
The young detective turned to look at Gaster.
"Let's go,"
Gast walked straight forward, "No one knows the storm zone better than Lena from the Dead Tree Bar."
——
The pure white mecha flew swayingly to an abandoned factory area. The light of the propeller on its back flickered, and then it lost its balance. It fell down swaying like a falling leaf.
And just below the mecha, in the silent night, the rooftop of an abandoned small building slowly opened from the middle like a sliding door, revealing the circular platform below.
The swaying mecha finally stood on the circular platform, put down its hands, and turned off the thrusters.
The entire platform began to descend rapidly, sinking into the small building with the body of the mecha.
The opened rooftop closed again, and the silent night returned to its former calm.
A steel platform extended from the edge of a certain floor, carrying a blond girl with twin ponytails forward, and finally stopped at the chest of the mecha.
Click——
The hatch on the mecha's chest opened, releasing smoke that obscured the view.
The blond girl with twin ponytails looked at this scene, frowned, and rushed directly into the cockpit.
Then she saw a young boy covered in blood walking out from the side of the console, taking off the bracelet fixed on the console and slowly putting it on his hand.
He raised his head and saw the girl with twin tails. Just as he was about to speak, his whole body fell forward.
The girl immediately reached out and tried to support the young boy, but she felt a huge force pressing down on her arm, and then the young boy tilted his body and fell backwards with her.
With a bang, she was pressed to the floor of the control room.
She immediately reached out and felt for the little boy's carotid artery. When she found that it was still beating, she breathed a long sigh of relief.
Then she tried hard to raise her hands and tried to push the boy away from her, but with all her strength, she could only push a little.
In the end, she chose to give up and looked at the young boy in front of her who was holding her down, "Are you extraordinary beings so heavy? How can I take you to treatment if you are like this..."
Then her eyes paused and rested on the boy's bent arms.
Before fainting, the young boy deliberately bent his arms forward to support part of his weight.
Otherwise, she might have been directly injured just now.
"This guy···"
She turned her head away, moved the boy's body slightly with force, changed her position, and put the boy's head on her soft thighs to make the boy's posture more natural. Then she lay on the ground like this, raised her bracelet,
"Please ask the doctor to come here immediately and bring all the medical facilities,"
Then she looked at the boy's blood-stained side face, paused, and said, "Get another hot towel."

One night passed
When the early morning light shone on the quiet streets, the noisy gunfire seemed to have finally stopped.
People get up and wash up every day, and get on the vehicles of the United Industrial Bus System with their tired bodies.
The tents on the street were unzipped, and some people wearing thin clothes walked out of the tents that were still surrounded by snow, holding half a piece of bread in their hands, yawning and crowding beside the bus stop.
The location near the bus stop is also a good location. You can set up a tent here and get some extra sleep in the morning.
These locations are usually not decided by homeless people and are controlled by some gangs and security companies. If you want to set up a tent nearby, you need to pay an additional 'location fee' to the gang or security company.
If the location of the tent is owned by United Industries, the person who pays the "location fee" becomes United Industries.
Of course, this situation is more common in Akko District, where seven out of ten public facilities, including parks and roads, have been sold to United Industries.
In the storm zone, the number is less than one in 10.
There are many reasons for this result, one of which is that the public facilities in the storm area are extremely dilapidated and of little value.
The obstruction of the Security Federation, a force deeply rooted in the storm area, is one of the more important reasons.
Lena withdrew her gaze from the tent on the street and looked forward.
It is obvious that soon all public facilities in the storm area will become the property of United Industries.
She has received news from her former 'companion'.
After losing the support of the FBI, it became clear that the Security Federation could not stand up to the alliance between United Industries and the Eternal Esoteric Cult.
In the end, many members of the peripheral security federation chose to surrender directly to United Industries and received the blessing of United Industries.
The Security Federation itself is not a solid group, and it is normal for defections to occur under such circumstances.
However, most of the core 'leaders' of the former Security Federation have united together, and now they have broken into pieces with their own people, hiding in the storm zone, and continuing to fight against the forces of the Eternal Secret Cult and United Industries.
Of course, it's not that they haven't thought about surrendering.
But in fact, it is now clear to everyone that what United Industries and the Eternal Secret Cult want is a 'storm zone' that is completely under their control.
Under this premise, these former security federation leaders who are still alive, have authority, and can mobilize a large group of people at any time, have become a powerful obstacle.
So these core leaders must die.
Even if you surrender, you will eventually die.
Of course, judging from this huge gap in strength, there will definitely be more and more people who cannot withstand the encirclement and suppression of United Industries and the Eternal Secret Cult and surrender with unrealistic 'expectations'.
The wheels of the off-road vehicle rolled over the calm road, and when they were about to hit a blocked intersection, they turned a corner and entered an alley.
Lena turned her head and glanced at the iron thorns blocking the road in the rearview mirror.
The blocked road extends back to the main church of the Eternal Esoteric Cult that was destroyed last night.
In the final battle between the two groups of people on the ruins of the main church, it seemed that the people of the Eternal Old Religion defeated the people of the Eternal Secret Religion.
However, the small-scale victory of the Eternal Old Church cannot change the large-scale outcome.
Judging from the current intelligence, it seems that the United Industries was responsible for dealing with the FBI, the Security Federation, and supporting the main church last night.
The Eternal Secret Cult brings together all its forces to deal with the forces of the Eternal Old Cult.
Of course, the old religion was not completely powerless. A fierce battle broke out between the two groups of people who also believed in the eternal light.
Although Lena did not get a specific battle report between the two religions, judging from the results of the feedback from the eyeliners, the old religion should have lost in the end, and most of their strongholds were destroyed.
Of course, the victory of the Eternal Secret Cult was not perfect, and a lot of price was paid, and the main church was also lost.
In fact, it can be clearly seen that this is a "killing game" that United Industries and the Eternal Secret Cult have prepared for a long time. They have almost made an irresistible arrangement, and they have an absolute advantage in every subdivision of the battlefield.
If the 'trap' in the main church last night was successful and the B-class bishop with terrifying combat power could return to the battlefield, the old church would probably be suppressed and beaten.
And because the bishop failed to return, the main church collapsed, and the esoteric forces in the main church were defeated by the old religion. As a result, the esoteric forces on the main battlefield lost the reinforcements they were supposed to have.
As a result, the Eternal Secret Cult spent far more than expected to eradicate the forces of the old religion.
At the same time, due to the fall of the aerial behemoth, the power of United Industries was also weakened, allowing many employees of the FBI to escape from the siege.
The combination of these factors made it impossible for United Industries and Eternal Secret Cult to exert enough power to deal with the Security Federation last night. In the end, the Security Federation retained its effective strength and continued to hinder the 'United Industries-Eternal Secret Cult Alliance''s efforts in the storm area.
control.
And if you continue to push forward, you can find that the "big brawl" last night was not in the original plan of the Eternal Secret Cult and United Industries.
The sudden chaos that came in advance caused various omissions in the original careful plan, and also caused the hasty betrayal of United Industries to not achieve the desired results.
Lena had seriously thought about it, if the plans of United Industries and the Eternal Secret Cult were to be carried out according to their original plan, would it be possible for her to fight back?
She thought about it for a long time, and finally came to the conclusion that it was impossible.
Even if the FBI, the Eternal Old Cult, and the Security Federation are tied together, even if the three forces can cooperate closely, they will not be able to defeat the United Industry-Eternal Secret Cult, which has more than one powerful B-class transcendent and aerial behemoth.
alliance.
This is the truth.
This is an absolute dead end.
United Industries and the Eternal Secret Cult will completely control this city. She doesn't know what kind of future that will be, but she has a hunch that it will be a more desperate world than now. This despair will not even be limited to Winter City.
.
If the direction of history really comes to that point, Lena feels that she has no other choice but to surrender and die.
The Eternal Secret Cult probably wouldn't even give her a chance to escape.
Of course, history did not go in that direction in the end.
The off-road vehicle bypassed the joint industrial mercenaries patrolling the streets and stopped in front of a simple funeral home. Lena reached out her hand, pushed open the door, and got out of the off-road vehicle.
A blond girl with twin ponytails wearing a white fur coat was standing inside the glass door of the funeral home, holding a cup of milk tea, seemingly waiting for her.
The girl in front of her has fair skin and an exquisite appearance. Judging from her standing posture, it is obvious that she has received professional etiquette training and is most likely from the upper echelons of a large conglomerate.
However, there are slight calluses on the inside of her fingers that are completely inconsistent with her identity, and she may have experience in mecha piloting.
Miss, mecha pilot, is it just a hobby? Or is it some kind of special status?
In the first moment of meeting, Lena roughly sorted out her observations.
The girl with twin tails was also stunned for a moment when she saw Lena, and then she subconsciously lowered her head and glanced at her toes.
But the girl quickly retracted her gaze, reached out and opened the glass door, looked at Lena, and asked in a low voice, "Lena?"
"Um."
Lena nodded slightly, helped open the glass door, and walked into the funeral home.
In fact, she had already been here once yesterday, helping Iroh bring his parents here.
"Willie."
The blond girl with twin ponytails stretched out her hand and introduced herself.
"Lena, bounty hunter."
Lena stretched out her hand, shook Willie's hand gently, and introduced herself.
"I know,"
Willie nodded slightly, "You were mentioned in the last email Ilo sent me. He said he made an appointment with you in the email last night to meet here today,"
She reached for the kettle on the side, picked up an empty cup, and poured a cup of milk tea, "Would you like some milk tea?"
"Thanks."
Lena took the milk tea and then said with some confusion, "Where is Iroh? Isn't he here yet?"
"he···"
Willy's voice paused for a moment, then she walked towards the back of the funeral home with milk tea in hand, "Follow me."
After the two opened a small door, a pure white bed appeared in their sight.
A little boy with a thin body and pale skin was lying on a small bed. A white medicine bag was hanging next to the small bed. A pure white infusion tube was connected under the medicine bag. A medical infusion clamp was attached to one end of the tube.
Clamped on his wrist.
It seemed that all the blood stains on the young boy's body had been wiped carefully, and even the blood stains in the gaps in his hair had been removed.
"What is he?"
Lena subconsciously clenched the coffee cup in her hand.
"His vital signs have stabilized now. Last night I almost thought he was going to die,"
Willie also held the coffee cup and said slowly, "But the doctor said that for some unknown reason, his body is very, very weak. It may be that he is too tired. I'm afraid he will need to rest for a while before he can wake up."
Lena glanced at the stool next to her, sat next to the boy, and stared at the boy's weak face.
In fact, she didn't hear the name 'Iroh' just recently. In the past, every time they had a meeting, Novis would tell her how cute his little son was while chatting.
She had also seen photos of little Yiluo. At that time, Yiluo's face was round and cute, and she was very lovable at first glance.
But it all came to an abrupt end the day 'Ilo' had an accident.
Since then, she never heard Novis talk about her youngest son again.
But every time someone in the security association asked Novis, "Your son," Novis would always ask "which one" and seriously emphasized that he had two children, both of whom were alive.
Speaking of which, Ilo's 'nutrition cabin' was also 'purchased' by Novisto from Wetland.
She didn't know when 'Iroh' woke up, but she knew that when Iloo woke up, it probably wasn't a 'good time'.
I am afraid that only the most despairing experience can awaken a child who has already half-footed his way into hell.
She doesn't know much about mystical science, but she knows very well that this world is a world of equal exchange.
For an ordinary person to suddenly gain powerful power, he must pay a price that ordinary people cannot understand.
"Have you known him for a long time?"
Willy also moved a stool and sat next to Lena.
"I knew his parents before. His father is a member of the Security Federation and is very prestigious in the federation."
Lena turned back and looked at Willy, "So how do you know him?"
"Because of an 'accident'."
Willy hesitated for a moment and briefly recounted the story of her encounter with 'Iroh'.
"So you are from the Twilight Society?"
Lena looked at Willy curiously.
She knew about the organization 'Twilight Society' and knew that this organization had been resisting the Eternal Secret Cult. The Twilight Society even bought information from her.
But she didn't expect Twilight to have so many 'mechas'.
"Um."
Willy nodded.
"Did it originally start from the 'Twilight Club'..."
Lena said thoughtfully.
"What's the meaning?"
Willy was a little confused.
"Um,"
Lena looked at the blonde 'elder lady' in front of her, and after a brief thought, she briefly stated her previous analysis, and then concluded,
"I have been thinking about the original plan of the Eternal Secret Cult and United Industries before. Now it seems that their original plan should be to 'defeat them one by one'.
"First get rid of the 'Twilight Society' that you belong to that has the deepest conflict with them and also has mecha combat capabilities, then merge and absorb the weakest but most difficult to eradicate the Security Federation, and finally deal with the FBI and the
The Eternal Old Religion has completed its control over the entire city."
"In the end they didn't solve any of them,"
Willy thought thoughtfully and said, "Even the error in the first link led to a series of errors in other links.
"The failure to deal with our 'Twilight Society' ultimately resulted in mechas being able to participate in the battle against the behemoths in the sky.
“The failure to successfully assimilate the Security Federation has resulted in the Security Federation becoming an enemy and destroying the stability of their rule in the storm area.
"However, the biggest variable is..."
She turned her head and looked at the little boy lying on the bed.
If it weren't for this little boy, she would have died in the snowfield a few days ago, and the Twilight Society would have been completely destroyed.
Everything after this is empty talk.
"yes."
Lena also turned to look at the boy on the bed.
When United Industries and the Eternal Secret Cult were trying to drive the carriage of history toward their planned destination, a small hand stretched out and pulled the tight reins, causing the carriage to drive in a completely different direction.
Although United Industries and the Eternal Secret Cult still maintain their advantage, the advantage is no longer so terrifying.
This chess game spread across the city has changed from a dead game to a living game.
Sunlight shines through the small window in the back room and shines on the young boy's cheek. On that thin shoulder, in the haze, an illusory butterfly silhouette is slowly spreading its wings.
The closed eyes trembled slightly.
