When something they had once dreamed of was placed in front of them, perhaps many people would find it hard to believe, and thus become restrained, for fear that their momentary actions would destroy the beauty of this dream that might be an illusion.
Mallory's current appearance was just like that.
It had been almost a week since Ray Mingkai had been invited to meet with Reynold, and a battle that was tantamount to a declaration of war had taken place.
During this week, Mithril, which had completely abandoned its previous cautious attitude, attacked everywhere with the support from Avalon. In particular, with the help of the Lionheart Knight, who had the ability to fly on his own, they were able to capture many of the Amalgam forces that had not yet fallen under Qian Shanwu's control in a short period of time and incorporate them one by one.
This progress made Mallory, who had vowed to revive his father's long-cherished wish, feel that it was unreal for a while.
It was too fast.
It was really too fast.
He did not expect that Mithril, which he had put in so much effort to establish, would be able to fulfill this long-cherished wish while he was still alive. Even though Avalon's contribution was also extremely eye-catching.
"Has the final battle finally come? It's too fast. "
The faster Mallory's father regained the lost territory of the Amalgam, the more urgent Mallory's heart was. This was because he knew that during this week, when the original tug-of-war had turned into a one-sided battle, it meant that the enemy intended to retreat and use space to exchange for time, so that the limited power at hand could be trained into a killing move that was enough to kill Mithril, which seemed to have gained a great advantage at the moment.
"Isn't this even better? The more time drags on, the more advantageous it is for us. Reynold is not a fool. "
Sitting across from Mallory was Ray Mingkai.
During this week, Mithril and Avalon had joined forces to attack everywhere, but as the top combatant of both sides, Ray Mingkai did not participate in this operation.
As mentioned above, Lei Mingkai was certain that Reynold was using space to exchange for time after the battle that was tantamount to a declaration of war, so as to obtain as much power as possible that could allow him to condense more power than before. Therefore, Ray Mingkai no longer made a move. He allowed the SRT team, which had become more and more proficient in using the lambda drive system, to use this week's intense battles to hone their control of the lambda drive system and their skills, so as to achieve the strength to face the King of Hell head-on.
From the battle reports that Teresa had personally compiled, Melissa, Cruz, and Sosuke Xiangliang truly had the halo of a main character above their heads. Under Ray Mingkai's deliberate guidance, the three of them had erupted with extremely high talent. Using the enormous pressure brought about by a short period of time, which was enough to send a normal person to the hospital, as motivation, they quickly completed the requirements set by Ray Mingkai.
This was also one of Mallory's trump cards in the final battle.
"Although this is the case, we also lack time. Compared to Reynold, whose forces have been compressed to the extreme by us, our forces can't be taken into account. After all, the Amalgam is too big. Even I, the executive officer of the Amalgam, didn't know that the Amalgam was so big. "
Mallory thought of the various problems brought about by the rapid capture of the sphere of influence during the week and could not help but sigh.
Even after Mallory had accepted that he could no longer control the fate of the amalgam, he had turned to building Mithril and nurturing many talents who would listen to his orders and follow his commands. He had never imagined that there would be a day when his dream would be so intense.
"Are we short on manpower?"
Ray Mingkai had also heard of the dilemma that Mallory was facing, but he did not have a better solution.
After all, on Ray Mingkai's side, only everyone on the floating battleship of Avalon could be directly mobilized. Therefore, being able to spare the Lionheart Knight Regiment to support Mithril's capture of the Amalgam was already the limit.
"Yes. That is indeed the case. But Sir Knight Captain, you don't have to worry. Although we are a little short on manpower, we can still handle it. The most important thing for us now is to figure out how to deal with the upcoming final battle. "
Mallory shook his head and did not intend to continue on the issue of insufficient manpower.
To him, the most urgent thing should be the upcoming final battle.
If they were defeated by Reynold in this final battle, then, no matter how well they handled the current forces and territories, it would be nothing more than an illusion.
"Yes. But now, a portion of our manpower has been spread out. Looking at it from another perspective, these spread out manpower may be a very good appetizer for Reynold. "
Ray Mingkai knew that the final battle was imminent, but he also knew that the manpower that Mallory had sent out in order to organize the current spoils of war occupied almost all of Mallory's talent pool.
"Hmph. Then we'll have to see if Reynold has the ability to eat all of my men. "
In response to Ray Mingkai's reminder, Mallory just snorted coldly.
In order to nurture these talents, not only did Mallory arrange a comprehensive and efficient curriculum, but he also set up many challenges with extremely strict requirements. Half of it was forcing and half of it was asking the elites to pass these challenges. Therefore, Mallory wasn't too worried about the possibility of being attacked.
In this regard, Ray Mingkai just nodded and no longer reminded him.
"Then, the next topic is the device located in the underground of the Mithril headquarters. Now, ser, perhaps we ought to be open and honest. From Reynold's words and deeds, his purpose is not to destroy Mithril, but to take the device stored in the underground of the headquarters, TARTAROS, for his own, and to reset the world. "
These words made Mallory suddenly stand up, and the expression on his face was even more shocked.
TARTAROS。
The existence of this mysterious device with the ability to reset the world, even among Mithril, not many people knew about it. But even so, Ray Mingkai could say this mysterious name and the terrible power it possessed.
How could this not shock Mallory?!
In Mallory's mind, the existence of this mysterious device might be the ultimate trump card.
But he never thought that not only Ray Mingkai, but also Reynold, the enemy, had already known about the existence of TARTAROS. The latter even targeted TARTAROS in an attempt to use its terrible power to reset the world.
"How is it possible? Reynold's ambition is so terrible?! "
This was the first time Mallory knew about Reynold's ambition hidden in the endless darkness.
"Nothing is impossible. Mallory. I believe you should know about Reynold's childhood, right? Think about it carefully, maybe you can understand why Reynold has such terrible ambition? "
Ray Mingkai said lightly.
He believed that even if Mallory did not have much friendship with Reynold and Teresa's father, he could learn all the details from Jerome, the current commander of Mithril's operations headquarters.
"…"
Ray Mingkai's reminder made Mallory fall into silence for a while.
As expected, Mallory knew about Reynold and Teresa's childhood experiences.
"That's really a disaster."
After a long silence, the many frustrations and regrets in his heart finally turned into a sigh.
Then, Mallory's gaze gradually became firm.
"Although this is very regrettable, the current situation has reached a point of no return. And, there is no possibility of reconciliation between us after TARTAROS is targeted by Reynold. "
Mallory took a slow breath, calmed his emotions, and looked up at Ray Mingkai.
"Sir Knight. What are your plans next? Well, maybe I should entrust the defense of Merida Island to Sir Knight. "
"Is that okay?"
Although Ray Mingkai had participated in the battle on the Son of Dan Slave before, for many Mithril personnel, Ray Mingkai was just a stranger outside the staff.
"No. There's no problem. Mithril is not the barbaric Amalgam. The strength that Sir Knight Commander had displayed in the previous battle was enough to convince most of the people in Mithril. Therefore, it is only right that we entrust the defense of Merida Island to you, Sir Knight. "
Mallory's attitude was very firm.
This was not a difficult task for Ray Mingkai.
On the contrary, after Ray Mingkai received Mallory's promise, he could not help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief.
It was nothing more than a blessing to be able to take control of the defense of Merida Island before the final battle. What made Ray Mingkai feel even more fortunate was that the control was not proposed by him, but by Mallory himself.
For Ray Mingkai, this was a guarantee that he could smoothly take over all the defense forces on Merida Island, and also avoid the possibility of conflict with the Mithril forces stationed on Merida Island.
"Thank you! Earl Mallory! "
After Ray Mingkai thanked him from the bottom of his heart, he reached for the teacup on the table and bowed to Mallory.
"Here, I propose a toast to Earl Mallory with tea in place of wine."
"Haha. That's what I want to say. Sir Knight! Thank you for coming! Because of your arrival, I can see the dawn of realizing my father's long-cherished wish! "
"Yes."
There was a soft sound of glasses clinking.
He drank it in one gulp.
From now on, Mithril and Avalon became true allies in the sense of the word, facing the final battle together.
Half an hour later, Mallory left.
And Ray Mingkai came to Gnacou.
During this week, Gnacou in Avalon was always in a state of frenzy.
In addition to constantly throwing Lionheart Knights into the battlefield, a special area was also designated in the depths of Gnacou.
The purpose was to use the fastest speed to perfect the modification of the Roaring Flame Demon Sword according to the combat data obtained from Ray Mingkai's many times of piloting.
After a week of hard work, the development team led by Royd and Mira finally pushed the first stage of the modification of the Roaring Flame Demon Sword to the end.
"Buzz buzz ~ ~"
The gantry crane moving along the track slowly moved the last piece of armor to the front of the right shoulder of the Roaring Flame Demon Sword, and under the guidance of the surrounding technicians, the final installation process was completed.
"It's done! Thank you for your hard work, everyone! "
The moment the gantry crane stopped, Royd, whose eyes were a little dark, suddenly clapped his hands and cheered loudly.
In an instant, this area that was specially designated for the modification of the Roaring Flame Demon Sword was filled with cheers.
"Well done! Thank you for your hard work, everyone! "
At this time, Ray Mingkai's voice suddenly sounded, causing everyone's cheers to pause, but then, an even louder cheer swept over.
"Sir Knight! Please look! This is the crystallization of our hard work during this period of time! The real Roaring Flame Demon Sword!! "
Royd jumped in front of Ray Mingkai in three steps and pointed at the brand new Roaring Flame Demon Sword and said loudly.
As usual, the main color was silver-white, accompanied by the gorgeous painting style of the royal family's coat of arms, which made Ray Mingkai frown a little.
This was the usual style of the body development technicians from the Britannia Empire.
Perhaps, this was also their common aesthetic.
In their eyes, as a machine with a respected position, or even as a future prince of the Britannia Empire, it was impossible to use a low-key and plain painting.
"As expected, it's still like this?"
Regarding this problem, Ray Mingkai had raised many opinions.
It seemed that this group of technicians was still quite stubborn.
Fortunately, except for the slightly flamboyant painting style, the technical team led by Royd and Mira perfectly fulfilled Ray Mingkai's request for the other parts.
First of all, as the Roaring Flame Demon Sword, which was built with the KFM body as the main technology, naturally did not lack weapons such as radiation shields and hooks.
Moreover, after these conventional equipment, the Roaring Flame Demon Sword was equipped with a re-adjusted light wing system.
When the output of this new light wing system reached a certain upper limit, it could use the excess energy in the form of energy beams to launch a storm-like attack.
In this regard, it was not much different from the original Lancelot.
But don't forget, the light wing system of the Roaring Flame Demon Sword could not only provide flight ability and energy beam attack, but it could also collect the heat emitted when the lambda drive system was used, and after reaching a certain threshold, it could be used in the form of an instant explosion to hit the target.
Flame Surfing.
That was the name of this move.
It was funny to say it.
The discovery of this move was also quite coincidental.
At that time, Ray Mingkai was cooperating with Mira to test the limits of the heat dissipation of the light wing system.
For some reason, when the lambda drive system was fully activated and pushed the body temperature to the extreme, the lambda drive system, which was originally under the control of Ray Mingkai, suddenly went berserk.
The temperature of the Roaring Flame Demon Sword's body also soared rapidly.
In order to control the situation in time and to suppress the lambda drive system from going berserk, Ray Mingkai and Mira immediately took action.
Then, an accident suddenly happened before Ray Mingkai and Mira could fully launch a self-rescue operation.
While Ray Mingkai was still trying to control the lambda drive system, the energy emitted by the lambda drive system suddenly swept away the heat on the light wing and poured it all in front of the Roaring Flame Demon Sword.
Suddenly, the forest in front of the Roaring Flame Demon Sword was destroyed by the terrifying heat wave.
In the distorted light, the forest in front of the Roaring Flame Demon Sword no longer existed, leaving behind a burning ground that seemed to have been burned by the flames of hell.
Perhaps, from this moment on, the name of the Roaring Flame Demon Sword was worthy of its name.
