Luo Jie turned his head and glanced at the iconic big clock in the center of Walpurgis Academy outside the window, and said, "You still have two minutes and fifty-five seconds to convince me."
"Fiery Red Cactus" also knows that it will definitely not work to whet his appetite anymore, and all the reasons can be summed up in the most concise three words.
"——The Chinese Attack Group!"
Luo Jie's heart moved slightly, but his face remained calm, quietly waiting for the other party's next words.
"You know "Chinese Theater", right? I have always had the habit of watching operas. About half a month ago, I was watching an opera performance at the Royal Theater in London. I overheard some nobles sitting next to me.
The "Runden Hana Kaidan" was mentioned in the discussion... Later, after many inquiries, I found that in addition to "Kabanelli of the Iron Fortress", this world also slightly integrates the world view of the "Sakura Wars" series.
"
The somewhat unfamiliar name "Sakura Wars" took Luo Jie to recall it for a while before he remembered that it seemed to be a very old console game.
This game is quite famous in the fan circle. Until Luo Jie entered the fantasy space, it was still in the sixth generation. The character is no longer the winning cartoonist in the previous five generations who married Juru COSER, who is 31 years younger than me.
It was replaced by Kubo Kubo who drew one of the three major migrant workers' comics "BLEACH". However, because the gameplay is more otaku-oriented, the popularity is not very wide...
The content of the game is very simple at a glance.
A noncommissioned officer named "Ichiro Ogami" was transferred to a place called "Imperial Hanagumi Group", and led a group of people who drove self-propelled steam boilers...well, "Reiko Armor"
, a steam-powered driving robot whose drivers are mostly beautiful girls with spiritual powers, a story about falling in love while saving the world from evil forces.
Of course, the main thing is love, and saving the world is just a side note.
Although the plot of the game mainly takes place in Kyoto of the Japanese country, the "Chinese Attack Group" is not unique to the Japanese country, but belongs to a group called World Comics...Huaji...uh,
The World Overseas Chinese Attack Federation (WLOF) organization has corresponding branches in all major countries.
Country E, the country that first started the steam era, is no exception. In the sixth generation of "Sakura Wars", the character of "London Hana Kaidan" clearly appeared.
It is worth mentioning that as a special anti-monster combat organization, the World Chinese Attack Alliance is not an official department that exists on the surface. All its members are opera or drama actors, and they usually cover up their identities by performing for external parties.
real identity.
God knows who came up with such an unreasonable setting - you are too busy saving the world, and you still have to memorize lines and practice acting every day?
Well, since it is set like this, no matter how unreasonable it is, we can only accept it.
Apparently, it was precisely because the World Chinese Attack League was hidden in a place like a theater that "Fiery Red Cactus", who loved listening to operas, discovered the secret alone.
Although Luo Jie didn't know much about the sub-plot of "Sakura Wars", he was still willing to give it a try as long as it didn't cause any trouble.
"Okay, girl, you successfully caught my attention."
"Don't think that I don't know what a "tyrannical presidential accent" is. I've also watched your Dragon Kingdom idol drama... Your acting skills are really poor, you don't even have a devilish smile."
There was a hint of pride in "Fire Red Cactus"'s tone. She knew that no high-level player could refuse the temptation of hidden content.
The corridor was not a place for conversation, so Luo Jie took "Fiery Red Cactus" to his dormitory and left [Ingenious Doll Lucifer One Type] in the corridor guarding the door.
"Is this the legendary scene where "no one will come to save you even if you cut your throat"?"
Although "Fire Red Cactus" was joking in a light-hearted manner, it did not relax its guard at all against Luo Jie, a strange player with whom he had only had one transaction, and casually summoned his own smart puppet to guard him.
Blue clothes, silver hair, cool temperament.
It is the "Snow Doll" Iruri from the "Kagetsuyuki" series.
Although there is no difference in appearance, in Luo Jie's eyes, this doll seems to be two dolls with nothing in common with the "Iruri" in the room of "Hanaryusai Glass".
Even if two dolls are mixed up for him to identify, he can absolutely accurately tell who the owner of the two dolls is.
There is no doubt that it is the effect of "cognitive impairment".
Luo Jie didn't want to reveal too many trump cards, so he didn't summon the twin maids Ram and Rem. He poured a glass of water for "Fiery Red Cactus" himself, then sat down opposite her and said: "Now you can
Let’s talk about this in detail.”
"Then let's start with the results of my investigation into the "Chinese Attack Group".
Without the three-minute limit, "Fiery Red Cactus"'s speaking speed was obviously several beats slower than before.
"The internally driven spirit armor and the externally operated robot doll were once two high-end war weapons that coexisted in the world. Later, with the invention of "Eve's Heart", the operation of the robot doll became more intelligent and simpler.
After the war, the relatively difficult-to-operate Lingzi armor was gradually abandoned by the military of various countries. As a result, the former World Chinese Attack Alliance was disbanded and turned into a pure theater organization."
"I used some tricks to find a logistics staff member of the former "London Chinese Regiment". According to him, as the country that invented and produced "Eve's Heart", Country E was the first to give up research on spirit armor.
Country, several Lingzi armors from the original "London Chinese Regiment" have long been dismantled and recycled."
"But the Reiki Armor did not disappear due to the disbandment of the World Hua Strike Alliance. After all, before the invention of "Eve's Heart", the Japanese country in this world has always been the country with the strongest Reiki Armor technology. It is very likely that it is still possible today.
Corresponding research is still ongoing.”
Luo Jie crossed his legs and adjusted his body to a more relaxed position. He tapped his fingers on the armrest of the sofa rhythmically and said, "So, you are willing to travel across the ocean just for those ugly self-propelled boilers?"
"Self-propelled boiler?" "Fiery Red Cactus" was startled before realizing that Luo Jie was talking about spirit armor, and chuckled: "This description is quite appropriate... Well, the design of those spirit armors
The style is indeed a bit steampunk, but some things cannot be judged by appearance alone.”
"You are wrong, girl - being strong is only a matter of one version, but being ugly is a lifelong matter."
"..."
Probably because he had begun to adapt to Luo Jie's unconventional way of chatting, "Fire Red Cactus" just remained silent for a few seconds with a stiff expression on his face, and then continued to speak as if he had heard nothing just now.
"I don't know how much you know about the Spirit Armor, but I can tell you responsibly that for players of the puppet-making profession, the value of this thing is even higher than that of "Flower Snow"."
