He couldn't help but sigh.
While Royd was lamenting the fact that he shouldn't be in charge of the port investigation, the heavens suddenly opened another door.
Faced with the sudden hostage kidnapping, Royd excitedly shouted that Lancelot finally had a chance to appear, but Cecil couldn't help but pour cold water on him.
Because in the order, there was no mention of the special mission giving up on the investigation at hand and fully participating in the hostage kidnapping.
"Tsk! You still want to continue such a troublesome mission? " Royd's mouth twitched as he disdainfully threw the investigation to someone else. He then pulled Cecil and Ray Mingkai onto the transport vehicle and drove towards Estuary Lake.
After about an hour of travel, the transport vehicle finally arrived at Estuary Lake with Royd driving at full speed and passed through the checkpoint Cornelia set up on the road leading to Estuary Lake.
News of the special mission's arrival was also sent back to Cornelia's mothership.
"Governor. The special mission you specially named has arrived. I've already arranged for them to be stationed at the right wing of the headquarters. "Adjutant Andreas Dalton slightly bowed to Cornelia.
"Mm!" Cornelia nodded and asked, "Dalton, what about you? What's the result of your investigation? "
The middle-aged man with a serious expression lowered his head and respectfully said, "Yes! Governor. According to our investigation, the special mission's members have no major problems. There are only two things that caught the governor's attention. The first is the person in charge of the special mission, Royd Asprind. Not only is he a classmate of the Second Prince, Schonetzel EI Brittania, but he is also a researcher under the Second Prince. Also, Royd Asprind seems to have some connections with the Emperor. "
Cornelia slightly nodded and didn't make any comments. Obviously, she wasn't interested in Royd Asprind's existence.
As an adjutant who had been by Cornelia's side for many years, Dalton naturally knew what Cornelia was thinking. Therefore, he didn't waste any more words.
"The second one is the Nameless Knight who wears a mask all day. After investigation, we found out that nearly a month ago, this unnamed Knight was suddenly brought back by Royd and became the world's only seventh-generation Knightmare Lancelot Knight. "
Hearing this, Cornelia asked, "That's all? Dalton. "
The adjutant, who had maintained a serious expression from the beginning to the end, shook his head slightly.
"No. Governor. This was only the information on the surface. After some hard work, our intelligence personnel discovered that this unknown Knight, who Royd called 'K', was actually found in the Royal Knight Academy. "
"Oh? Royal Knight Academy? Was it Imperial Father who ordered the establishment of the academy on a whim two years ago? Interesting. Is there more? "Cornelia's eyes gradually lit up with interest.
Unfortunately, the adjutant shook his head and bowed even lower.
"I'm very sorry! Governor! Our intelligence personnel have reached the limit of their investigation. It seems that someone is secretly obstructing our investigation. "
"Obstructing?" When Cornelia heard this, her eyes flashed with a cold light.
"Yes. During the investigation of the Royal Knight Academy, our intelligence personnel had their identities exposed more than once and were secretly threatened. In order to protect the safety of our intelligence personnel, after much consideration, I finally gave the order to stop the investigation. "
The loyal adjutant fearfully apologized to Cornelia, "Unable to complete the Governor's order, we deserve to die! Please punish us!! "
Cornelia shook her head and stood up from the main seat. She walked in front of the adjutant and patted his shoulder, gently saying, "Dalton. Raise your head. No matter if it's you or the intelligence personnel, you've all done very well. It seems that Royd and Imperial Father are keeping a secret that they don't want others to know. "
At this point, Cornelia chuckled.
"Fine. Let's put aside the special mission! What's the situation with the terrorists? "
"Yes! They're still in a deadlock. Before we arrived, we've already tried to rescue them from the air and underwater, but without exception, they all failed. "The advisor standing beside Dalton reported to Cornelia.
"They all failed? Hmph! It seems that the terrorists came prepared. "Cornelia's face became more and more fierce, but more and more worried.
Seeing this, the advisor couldn't help but take a deep breath, and told her the final rescue plan.
"From the current situation, the only feasible rescue plan is to use the underground supply tunnel that extends to the conference center hotel and destroy the foundation, causing the hotel to sink into the water. Finally, while the terrorists are in chaos, our army can send special forces into the hotel to rescue the hostages! "
The advisor paused, and continued, "Because this supply tunnel was built to transport supplies, there's enough space for Knightmare to pass through. According to past records, the terrorists who kidnapped the hostages shouldn't have too many heavy weapons against Knightmare. Therefore, the probability of rescuing the hostages is very high. "
Cornelia, who was worried that Euphemia's identity would be exposed, didn't think too much about this battle plan. After all, before this, the outstanding advisor group had already tried various methods, and in the end, this was the only option.
"Royd. Can you talk to the governor? "
Lei Mingkai, who watched the three Sunderland planes being hoisted into the supply channel leading to the conference center one after another, turned his head and asked Roy.
"Yes, I can. But I've already sent in the request. It's just that the governor doesn't seem to want to allow Lancelot to join the battle. "Royd was also helpless.
Since they could use an emergency order to call them here, they shouldn't be left hanging. In the end, they could only stare at the conference center from afar.
"Let's try again! I'm afraid this attack will fail. "Ray Mingkai's face gradually turned serious.
"Fail? It shouldn't be, right? According to the terrorists' weapons, they don't seem to have too many heavy weapons against Knightmare. Although Sunderland isn't as good as Lancelot, but … "
Before Royd could finish his sentence, a roar suddenly exploded from the supply tunnel.
Immediately after, a gust of wind surged out from the tunnel that Sunderland used to enter the attack tunnel without any warning, causing the vehicles parked at the side to sway back and forth.
"Eh …"
Royd was taken aback. He hurriedly asked Cecil to investigate what had happened.
"The mothership sent news, it's a Linear Cannon! It seems to be a cannon modified from Glasgow! The three Sunderland we sent were all destroyed in an instant!! "Cecil was shocked and quickly reported the information from the mothership.
“Linearcannon? The terrorists actually have this thing?! This is bad! Even if there are more Sunderland attacking together, it's just a matter of one cannon. "
As he spoke, Royd's mouth gradually rose.
He turned to look at Ray Mingkai and said confidently, "K, you're about to appear."
Ray Mingkai shook his head.
"Royd, can you talk to Governor Cornelia? If this drags on, the existence of the third princess will be discovered by the terrorists. "
Although Royd knew from Ray Mingkai's tone that this wasn't a joke, he still felt that he had to confirm with Cornelia.
However, how to confirm was Royd's problem.
"Governor, Special Envoy is calling. Request direct communication with Governor! "
Just when Cornelia was at her wit's end, Royd's call came in time.
"Royd. What do you want? "
Cornelia's gaze was very sharp, as if in the next moment, if Royd didn't give a satisfactory answer, Cornelia would order the Special Envoy to be excluded from this operation.
"No, Governor. This time, the main character is not me. The one who wants to communicate with Governor is him! Knight K! "
After Royd bowed slightly to Cornelia, he exited the screen and left the space to the man in a white pilot suit with a silver mask.
"Nameless Knight K?!" Cornelia instantly recognized his identity.
"Yes! Governor. I'm the Special Test Pilot Knight K! "Ray Mingkai said respectfully while performing a Knight's salute.
"Say it! I don't have much time now. "Cornelia suppressed the anxiety in her heart to keep herself calm.
"Your Highness! Please let me take on the assault mission! "Ray Mingkai made his request.
"Why?" Cornelia stood up and stared at Ray Mingkai. If it weren't for the screen, Cornelia even wanted to take off the silver mask on Ray Mingkai's face and directly see his heart through his eyes.
"Uffi!" Ray Mingkai slowly said a name.
As soon as the name came out, Cornelia was shocked.
Her heroic face became ferocious, and her voice became low and hoarse.
"You, how do you know?"
"Governor, why ask when you already know?" Ray Mingkai said flatly.
Cornelia clenched her fists tightly. Just as she was about to close her eyes and think about whether she could trust this nameless Knight, a sudden change occurred.
"Governor! The situation has changed! "
Under the staff officer's exclamation, several figures appeared on the top floor of the hotel.
There were several terrorists armed with firearms and a hostage whose hands were tied.
The next second, the hostage who kept begging for mercy was kicked off the top floor by the ruthless terrorist.
The hostage was dead.
Then, the terrorist leader also issued a death threat.
"Governor. Lancelot and I are on standby! "
Cornelia raised her hand to stop Ray Mingkai's words.
"Knight K. I allow you to attack! But, you must guarantee that the third princess, Euphemia Li Britania, will be rescued in one piece!! "
"Yes! In the name of Knight! "
