After the end of the battle, the battleships of the Victory Fleet, including the Burning Legion, passed through a huge entrance and reached the bottom of Third New Tokyo. It was an incredibly huge underground space.
In fact, it was just an underground space. Not only was the interior of the space ridiculously high, but the area was also incredibly large. The ground of the entire underground space was filled with countless green plants. Coupled with the pyramid-like building of the NERV headquarters, it was like entering a paradise.
It was said that this place was very far from the ground, so there was not a single pillar in sight in such a huge space. Moreover, it was able to support Third New Tokyo, which was built directly above the space.
However, Xiao Ran also learned from Deputy Commander Dong Yue, who was leading the way, that this huge space under the ground was the real Third New Tokyo City. This was because countless buildings in the entire Third New Tokyo City could descend into this space when there was a battle.
After Xiao Ran and the others followed Deputy Commander Dong Yue into the door of the command room, they saw an empty room the size of half a football field. But apart from a table and a person sitting behind the table, there was nothing else in the room.
Except for Xiao Ran, who already knew what kind of situation this place was, the rest of the people were a little surprised by the situation in the command room. After all, it was really uncomfortable to stay in such an empty office for a long time.
When Dian Yuantang saw Xiao Ran and the others coming in, he first pushed his yellow glasses, stood up, and took the initiative to greet Xiao Ran and the others. After walking up to Xiao Ran, he extended his white-gloved right hand and said, "Hello, I'm Dian Yuantang, the commander of NERV. Welcome to NERV, and thank you for your help to NERV."
A black suit, a slightly gloomy face, and yellow or orange eyes covering his eyes. Coupled with the dim lighting in the office, Dian Yuantang did not give a good impression at first glance. He looked a little cold and mysterious.
Xiao Ran also reached out and shook hands with Dian Yuantang. After being stunned for a moment, he returned to normal without anyone noticing the change in his expression. He smiled and said, "I'm Xiao Ran from the Victory Fleet. I don't hold any special position in this fleet. I'm very happy to meet you, Mr. Dian Yuantang."
"Victory Fleet, is that the name of your current fleet?" Dian Yuantang asked in a calm and deep voice. At the same time, he looked at the people behind Xiao Ran.
Of course, Dian Yuantang knew Brad, Tessa, and Captain Ott. Although he wasn't familiar with them, he had at least interacted with them before. However, Shigeru Okita, Hoshino Liuli, Mary, and Miss Empress were the first time he saw them. Moreover, Dian Yuantang was very puzzled. Where did Burning Legion, Fuko, Yamato, and Ptolemy come from? Why have I never seen or heard of them before?
Therefore, asking about the composition of the Victory Fleet was also asking about the origin of Xiao Ran and the others.
Xiao Ran nodded. "Yes, the Victory Fleet is composed of several warships that have already entered this place, including Mithril's Dannu's Son, Lund Bell's La Karam, and Pseudo-Arkama."
Dian Yuantang's expression changed. He nodded silently and looked at Brad, Captain Ott, and Tessa. Then, he said to everyone, "Everyone, please follow me. Captain Brad, Captain Ott, and Captain Tessa, welcome to this place. Please follow me."
Dian Yuantang turned around and led the way, but he didn't notice the strange look on Xiao Ran's face. He walked to his desk and pressed a button. Several chairs and tables suddenly rose from the originally empty office.
Everyone sat on the tables one by one, forming a circle around the table.
After sitting down, Dian Yuantang, as the owner of this place, naturally couldn't let the atmosphere remain cold. Considering that he didn't know the situation of the Burning Legion and the other warships, Dian Yuantang's following questions and conversations revolved around the Victory Fleet.
After asking about the Victorious Fleet and receiving everyone's tacit approval, Brad let out a sigh and explained the situation of the Victorious Fleet, the three worlds, the enemies they had to face, and so on. Meanwhile, Anchorage Hall maintained a serious attitude and listened attentively to Brad's description.
Xiao Ran also sat at the side. Although his expression wasn't obvious, his heart was full of puzzlement. As a Reformer, he couldn't directly read the inner thoughts of others and needed to communicate to understand them. However, he could sense their emotions, moods, and inner inclinations.
And the moment he shook hands with Dian Yuantang, Xiao Ran clearly felt the calmness and kindness in Dian Yuantang's heart. It wasn't strange to say that Dian Yuantang was calm, but it was a little unusual for him to feel this kind of calmness.
Because from what Xiao Ran knew, Dian Yuantang should be an indifferent person. Even if he had feelings, he was also a person who would do anything to achieve his goals. Speaking of which, Xiao Ran felt a little ruthless. However, he didn't feel this kind of coldness or ruthlessness from Dian Yuantang at all. All he felt was a kind of simple calmness. There wasn't the slightest bit of indifference, but there wasn't any warmth either. It was like the feeling of an eminent monk.
And he didn't hide his kindness either. Not only did he have kind thoughts in his heart, but even his actions were the same. It was strange enough that he took the initiative to stand up and shake hands with Xiao Ran. He didn't seem like the Dian Yuantang in Xiao Ran's memory at all.
In short, this Dian Yuantang should be regarded as another person with a completely different personality. A person that Xiao Ran couldn't see through the influence of his memory.
After Brad finished talking about the Victory Fleet, the three worlds, and the fact that Lund Bell had become a traitor of the Federation, Dian Yuantang fell silent. After a while, he said, "I understand. The current situation is very unfavorable for the Victory Fleet. Without the logistics of the Federation, Lund Bell's situation will be very bad. Mithril, which has already begun to shrink, won't be able to provide perfect support and supplies."
