After a sleepless night, Meg rubbed his tired eyes and looked at the various relationship charts and social system inferences on the small blackboard at the side. A smile appeared on his lips.
"Miss Black Cat" was a typical inspirational story of a woman breaking free from the shackles of society and family, and charging towards freedom.
Men were superior to women, arranged marriages, and a setback in her career …
Of course, this kind of story was not considered novel on Earth, but it was very novel and groundbreaking in the Norland Continent. Therefore, the opera and picture book were a huge success.
And in this story, the society described by Vicky incorporated some of the local customs of Rodu, but there were also many differences from the current world after careful study.
In "Miss Black Cat", one could clearly feel the strong power of the family. Although it was blurred out as nobles, Meg could see the kind of high and mighty looking down between the lines. It was more like a black hand hiding behind the power, such as a certain country's tycoon.
Vicky's family's power and influence could also be seen. She was indeed a rich young lady.
"This lady is much more simple-minded than Xi. Should I take the time to go to Rodu again?" Meg stroked his chin and pondered.
Xi had received professional training. Even with delicious food, there was no way to get much useful information from her.
But Vicky was different. Although this lady was smart, she was not as rigid as Xi.
Moreover, there might be another personality in her head. Although they had not officially come into contact, it might be a breakthrough.
The military's power was not described in "Miss Black Cat", so it was difficult for Meg to deduce whether the tycoons had control over the military.
"There should be many people who did not sleep well last night, right?" Meg wiped away the relationship chart on the small blackboard and left the study.
…
"Marshal, the analysis report of the mecha core is out. This core does not come from the military, nor does it belong to the five major companies. The technology is one generation ahead of the core that the military has put into use. It belongs to the 132nd generation of the core among the five major companies. It is still in the research and development stage, but the information is limited at the moment." A staff member walked into the office and handed the scroll tablet to Ferdinand, who was sitting behind the desk, respectfully.
Ferdinand flipped through the information, frowned, and said, "You can't find the source? You can't crack it either? "
"The core was set to self-destruct, but it was violently destroyed by an unknown external force, and the self-destruct mode was activated. After dismantling it, very little useful information was obtained, and it was not enough to crack the code.
As for the source, the technicians are stepping up their investigation. At present, the inference is that the existence of this core technology that surpasses the Big Five is most likely from the 'Immortal' organization. In the previous operation, similar technological means were discovered. "The staff quickly replied.
"The Undying?" Ferdinand's frown deepened. "It's these guys again."
"Marshal, the technical department has requested to inspect the other parts of the mech. Perhaps we can find more information from the other parts," said the staff member.
"There's no time for that now. Let them continue to investigate this core." Ferdinand raised his hand, indicating for the staff to leave.
Ferdinand was the only one left in the office. The display on the wall started to play a battle video.
A masked man slashed a mecha that was more than a hundred meters tall into two halves with a single slash of his sword. Then, he stomped on the mecha's core, which was about to self-destruct, and played the clip on a loop.
The video paused, and the metal capsule that had been kicked away by the man was zoomed in. There was a little elf inside.
"Is this little fellow their target?" Ferdinand pondered.
Yesterday, Xi had sent back news that a demigod-level mecha had appeared on the Norland Continent, and caused the death of the elven queen and high priestess.
This was no small matter.
The underground city prohibited private individuals from crossing between the two realms, but it was not stopped. Every year, the border enforcement team would arrest hundreds of border crossers.
These border crossers had different abilities, but there were very few 10th-tier existences.
The more powerful one was, the more one would understand the price one had to pay for such behavior.
As for Extraordinaries, they were no longer restricted.
The abilities of border crossers were limited, and most of them avoided the pursuit of the enforcement team. After arriving on the Norland Continent, they rarely caused trouble.
This incident caused the death of the elven queen and high priestess. It was a major event that was enough to shake the foundation of the Norland Continent.
And the cause of this incident was actually a mecha. Its ability was far beyond 10th-tier, close to that of an Extraordinary's mecha.
Level 10th-tier mechas were still in the stage of small-scale production among the Big Five. Now, there was actually someone who could operate an Extraordinary mecha and cross over to kill and rob. This was completely beyond the control of the military.
However, this mecha did not escape unscathed. Instead, it was destroyed by this young human called 'Meg Alex'.
While he was surprised by the young man's ability, Ferdinand's admiration for him also increased by a few notches.
This was not the first time he had noticed this man. This young man was known as the most powerful person on the Norland Continent. He had once led the Norland Continent's encirclement and annihilation of the Great Old Ones, and successfully sealed Cthulhu.
Xi had interacted with him before, and he had saved Vicky's life. Speaking of which, he still owed him a favor.
He should be one of the few people on the Norland Continent who knew about the existence of the underground city. Moreover, he had detained that mecha and made his own request.
"Interesting. Seems like I should also take some time to make a trip to the Norland Continent." Ferdinand turned off the video, and stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window to look at the busy base outside. A cold smile appeared on his lips. "Those old farts. Are they trying to break the rules again? But this time, an interesting little fellow has appeared. "
…
"This stupid human made me lose a super mecha. Damn it!"
In an ancient and dim hall, a low and hoarse voice reverberated in the empty hall.
At the end of the hall, there was a huge black stone pillar. Ancient inscriptions covered the stone pillar, and at the top of the stone pillar, there was a black and gold spear. The spear was nailed to the stone pillar, piercing through an indescribable thing that was like chaos.
The stone pillar and spear seemed to have existed for countless years, but that indescribable object that was half-chaotic seemed to still be breathing as it squirmed irregularly.
Below the stone pillar, there was a black stone chair. Shrouded by the shadow cast by the stone pillar, a hunched and thin figure sat in the darkness.
And below, there were four men in black robes. They wore the same faceless mask, and stood with their heads lowered.
"Kill him and get the Divine Infant back." A voice came from the darkness again.
"Yes."
One of them stepped out silently, and then disappeared from the hall instantly.
"Hall Master, the military is closely investigating the origin of the mecha. Do we need to use our power to suppress this matter?" a faceless man asked softly.
"No need. Since Ferdinand already knows about this, then it can't be suppressed. Let him investigate. I want to see what he can find out."
