After Xiao Ran handed over the information about AS and Lambda Drive to Luluxiu, the latter's trust in Xiao Ran increased. If Luluxiu still couldn't feel Xiao Ran's sincerity, then he would be a fool.
After listening to Xiao Ran's words, Luluxiu also nodded, "Wake them up first."
Xiao Ran walked to the car and woke the three people up one by one. It wasn't easy to wake up three people who had suffered a mental shock. When they suddenly woke up, the three people didn't have time to do anything else. They could only hold their heads and groan. Because of the headache, the three people's consciousness was confused, and they didn't have any strength. Even the sound they made could only be described as moaning.
Luluxiu stood in front of the car and looked at the three people who were holding their heads and groaning in pain. He also looked at Xiao Ran with a strange gaze, "What did you do to them? Why are they like this? "
Xiao Ran shook his head, "It's the use of mental strength. If your mental strength is strong enough, you can use your mental strength to attack the opponent's mental strength. It's a very simple way to rely on mental strength to attack. This situation is also because their mental strength is too weak."
Xiao Ran kicked one of the three people and said, "Tell me, who are you, why did you sneak into the special force, and monitor Her Highness Euphemia."
The three people's headaches were indeed very serious, as if their heads were about to explode. It was even worse than the headache after a hangover. Xiao Ran had experienced this several times, so he knew very well what was going on with the three people. Even if the headache was splitting, it wouldn't prevent the three from answering his questions. At least, it wouldn't be a problem for a short time.
The person who was kicked by Xiao Ran stared at Xiao Ran and said weakly, "Luluxiu … It's you, you are Luluxiu …"
The real Luluxiu glanced at the person beside him, and the fake nodded shamelessly, "Yes, I am Luluxiu Xiao. If you don't want to die, answer my questions quickly. Who are you, why did you sneak into the special force, and monitor Her Highness Euphemia? What's your purpose?"
The person who spoke held his head and looked at Xiao Ran in horror, "How is it possible … How can you be so strong? How can there be someone like you? How can you be so powerful?"
"Don't talk nonsense." Xiao Ran lowered his head and looked at the other two people, as if he was talking to himself, "Silence and resistance are meaningless to you. Even if you don't say anything, I have a way to get the information I want from you. Let him answer our questions and forget everything that happened today."
Xiao Ran bent down, grabbed the person's hair, and put his head in front of Luluxiu's eyes. Luluxiu didn't need Xiao Ran to say anything and used his GEASS ability on the person. "Answer all our questions, and forget everything that happened today."
The GEASS ability took effect, and as expected, it worked on the person. After Xiao Ran threw the man away, Luluxiu asked in confusion, "Why didn't you let them die?"
"Someone has set their sights on the 11th sector. I don't know who it is, but for Princess Euphemia's safety, I don't think it's necessary to let them die now. Even if they die, it's only a matter of sending them a bullet. I still need them alive to spread false information to the people behind them until our preparations are complete."
Xiao Ran looked at the person who was controlled by Luluxiu and asked, "Who are you?"
"The Scarlet Knights. We're from the Scarlet Knights."
The other two people were stunned when they saw their comrade answering Xiao Ran's questions like crazy. They couldn't help but look at Xiao Ran and Luluxiu in shock. But in the next second, one of them exclaimed in disbelief, "ZERO! You're ZERO! You're all from the Black Knights! Which army are you from?! There's no way anyone in this world can have such power! "
The expression of the participant who suddenly spoke changed abruptly. Then, he looked at Xiao Ran and Luluxiu with an even more horrified gaze. "Impossible, how is this possible? How can there be such power in this world? How can there be a power that can control us? How can there be such power behind the emperor … "
Luluxiu frowned. He glanced at Xiao Ran and asked, "What is he talking about? What does he mean? "
"I don't know." Xiao Ran shook his head as if he really didn't know anything. But in fact, Xiao Ran had no idea what Luluxiu heard. He wasn't sure if Luluxiu's words were influenced by Prometheus, so playing dumb was the best choice.
The two people who were conscious finally realized that ZERO and Xiao Ran, who was impersonating Luluxiu, were not participants. When the person said those words, he received a warning from Prometheus, so he didn't dare to say anything else.
Luluxiu frowned and glanced at the participant. He seemed to be interested in the participant's nonsense and wanted to control him to get more information from him. But in the end, Luluxiu did not do so. He ignored the two participants who weren't under his control and focused his attention on the participant who was already under GEASS's control.
"What kind of organization is the Scarlet Knights?"
"We are mercenaries who joined the Britaria mercenaries. The Britaria Emperor gave us the title of Blood Knights and we became the direct combat troops of the Emperor. We are now in charge of assisting the Britaria's defense against other powerful mercenary legions."
Luluxiu asked in a deep voice, "Why did you come to the 11th District?"
"In order to control the 11th District before the other armies reach into the 11th District, monitoring Euphoria is to find an opportunity to contact and control her. As for Luluxiu, as long as we control the 11th District, we will be able to gain an advantage in the future."
"Link, shut up!"
Xiao Ran narrowed his eyes and clenched his fist to shut the two people up. He asked, "What's so important about the 11th District?"
"Cherry Stones are a very important strategic resource for the mercenary corps. We need them to be able to use more power. In order to fight for them, other mercenary corps will also target the 11th District."
"Cherry Stones?" Xiao Ran pondered. He glanced at Luluxiu and thought for a while. He then asked, "What kind of force are you?"
"The Britarian Empire."
"Interesting," Xiao Ran narrowed his eyes, "If you're not loyal to the Emperor, then you're just working for Britaria? Then what's your real purpose? "
"Yes, we need to obtain a recognized piece of territory from Britaria that belongs to us."
The two participants who were still conscious couldn't speak or move. However, their faces were filled with fear. They were afraid that Luluxiu could control their power.
Xiao Ran turned to look at Luluxiu, "And these two, I have some things I want to know in private. At least, it's something that you can't know now. If you don't mind, you can wait for me outside."
Luluxiu took a deep look at Xiao Ran and nodded slightly. He used GEASS to control the two people and made them answer all the questions. After that, he left the carriage and closed the door for Xiao Ran. Luluxiu was curious about the things that Xiao Ran wanted to hide from him, but he could control his curiosity.
He knew that Xiao Ran had a lot of secrets, but Luluxiu told himself not to probe into the secrets of Xiao Ran. Xiao Ran had always said what he could and wouldn't say no matter what. Therefore, even if Luluxiu tried to probe, he wouldn't get any answers. Besides, Xiao Ran had shown enough sincerity in many things, so there was no need to probe further.
After Luluxiu left and closed the door, Xiao Ran turned back to look at the three people who were under his control. However, he was not in a hurry to ask them questions. Instead, he closed his eyes and thought for a while. After that, he said, "Can you tell me the specific situation of your army?"
The three people said in unison, "No, we can only answer a limited number of questions."
Xiao Ran nodded slightly. Luluxiu's GEASS actually had an important flaw that was rarely noticed, and that was that he couldn't order the person to do things that he couldn't do. For example, making a person fly was something that humans couldn't do. For the three participants, if anyone wanted to get more information about their army from them, it would depend on how important the information was to the army. After all, the rules of the army were more relaxed than the rules of the army. It wouldn't be too difficult to get some answers if he asked slowly.
"What exactly is the use of cherry blossom stones to you participants and the army?" Xiao Ran wanted to know this question just now, but it was not convenient for him to ask since Luluxiu was still around.
One of them answered, "Cherry blossom stones are an important strategic resource. We need a lot of cherry blossom stones to unlock our bodies. The more powerful the body, the more cherry blossom stones are required. At the same time, cherry blossom stones are also used as consumable resources when using the body in battle. At the same time, cherry blossom stones can be used to replace the consumption of all weapons and ammunition, speeding up the recovery of damage to the body."
Xiao Ran was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect to hear such an answer from the three people. After pausing for a moment, Xiao Ran asked again, "In other words, without cherry blossom stones, you won't be able to unlock your own body?"
"Yes."
Xiao Ran's head was full of question marks. He didn't understand what was going on with this mission. It felt very strange.
Xiao Ran took a deep breath and said, "What is your mission? No, tell me all the public information about this mission, including all the information you know about the army. "
"This mission is a strategic mission that involves the participation of many armies. Within the time limit of the mission, you will be able to obtain more resources, eliminate more armies, and assist the side that has the most territory expansion. After balancing and calculation, the army with the highest score will be victorious. This will allow both the army and the individual to obtain extremely generous mission rewards. At the same time, the victor will be able to obtain a large amount of resources from the defeated army.
"There are a total of ten legions participating in this mission. Other than our Blood Knights Legion, there are nine other legions. Out of the ten legions, two of them have joined the forces of the country opposite the coast of this country, three of them have joined the EU, two of them have established themselves in Africa, and the other two legions are still in hiding. We don't know what they are doing for now. Initially, we thought that the Black Knights Legion was one of the two hidden legions."
"Cherry stones are the key resource of the mission. They can be used to unlock our advanced mecha and provide continuous energy for them. Furthermore, we can use the cherry stones to exchange for the corresponding consumables, ammunition, resources, and weapons of mass destruction. The army that obtains the most cherry stones will also obtain the greatest advantage.
"Currently, the mission of each army will be triggered after joining an organization. The requirement is to obtain a recognized independent territory. The next mission is unknown for now."
Xiao Ran's expression was a little strange. He thought to himself, This isn't a simple fight, chaotic battle, or snatching territory. It's a strategic mission that requires one to obtain designated resources. Is this a game of Red Alert or World of Warcraft? Or is this a game of civilization?
Han Xiao shook his head. It wasn't strange for there to be such a mission. After all, special missions were possible. Even a world like Gundam Creator had them.
After thinking about it, Xiao Ran asked, "Among the ten armies that you know, what is the strongest level? What is the average level of all the armies?"
"The strongest participants are Epic Level and above. There should be more than sixteen of them. The average level of the other participants is Excellent."
The Epic Level, compared to the real system, was between B-Grade and A-Grade, which was equivalent to B-Grade pilots. The Legendary Level was between A-Grade and S-Grade, which was equivalent to A-Grade pilots. The Mythical Level was definitely S-Grade. Of course, the destructive power of the Super Area was not very stable. The range was also quite large. It could only be used as a reference and could not be completely measured by the rating of the real system. However, if it was only the Epic Level, the strongest would be A-Grade and the weakest would be B-Grade. Xiao Ran had the ability to deal with them.
In other words, this mission's chaotic battle would have more than ten B-Grade to A-Grade pilots, followed by a large number of participants below B-Grade. Such a force would be enough to sweep through the Luluxiu world a hundred times. However, with the restriction of the cherry stones, the war game had become a strategic game. These participants were now unable to obtain cherry stones on a large scale. Under the situation where they still needed cherry stones to consume, no army could fully unleash their full power.
The more likely possibility was that all the armies were now focusing on the stability of the power between the organizations. In the 11th District, where cherry stones were produced the most, Xiao Ran could understand. Perhaps there really wasn't any army that dared to take the risk of being targeted by the other nine armies to blatantly occupy this area.
