(The second part of the Mech War series, The World of Mech War has officially been released. You can see it in my works. Mech War has accompanied everyone for more than a thousand days, and will continue to accompany everyone for more than a thousand days.)
"Ah."
In response to Todd's question, Xiao Ran awkwardly nodded with a smile and said, "You can say that. Although the Burning Legion's inheritance exists, the ability I used just now was slightly different."
"That punch …" Todd turned his head to look at the place where Xiao Ran attacked and exclaimed, "It's a little unusual. It's unbelievable that it could hit so far away. That's a beam of light right? The inheritance that can create a beam of light out of thin air is too amazing."
Xiao Ran said, "If the inheritance you received is profound enough, I believe you can do it as well. Although the method may be different, it should be easy to summon a meteorite or something."
Liz was a little confused. She didn't know why Xiao Ran suddenly stopped her from continuing. But after all, this was just a fun thing for the Burning Legion. It was reasonable for outsiders not to know. Although she didn't know the specific reason, Liz felt that she might have said something wrong. And Xiao Ran didn't seem to want her to join the Burning Legion.
The atmosphere was stiff for a moment. Todd smiled and said to Xiao Ran, "Legion Commander Xiao Ran, regarding the cooperation, I still need some time to think about it. After all, with the size of our two legions, this isn't a small matter. Once we decide to cooperate, the policies of my legions will change greatly."
"Understood. Then I'll wait for the good news."
Todd then chose to leave. Since he didn't immediately agree to the cooperation, it wasn't appropriate for him to continue staying in the Burning Legion's territory. He had seen what he needed to see, understood what he needed to understand, and there was no need for him to shamelessly stay. But as for whether to form a deeper cooperation with the Burning Legion, he did need to think about it carefully with Liz and the others in the legion.
Although he couldn't tell the others what he saw in the Burning Legion, he could still ask for the opinions of the core members. Even if he was the one making the decision in the end, Todd still hoped to get more support and understanding. The core members also had the right to know his thoughts and give their own opinions.
After Todd and Liz left, Xiao Ran closed his eyes and took a deep breath. Then he took out his communicator and sent a few messages, calling a few people who tried to eavesdrop on them.
Bassac, Cruzet, Uzzes.
Looking at the three guys who acted as if nothing had happened, Xiao Ran was simply angry: "Just now it wasn't just the three of you, the others ran away quite quickly. What are you guys going to do?"
Cruzet looked at the sky, Uzzes stroked the bug, and Bassac studied his fist with an 'I don't know what you're talking about' expression.
Xiao Ran looked at Bassac: "Bassac, you don't have to pretend. Do you think you can hide from me with such a mournful shout just now?"
"It wasn't me!" Bassac opened his eyes wide and defended himself: "I don't know anything, it was Xiaya, yes, it was Xiaya, and Bassac, I don't know what you're talking about."
"Hehe." Xiao Ran let out a chuckle, causing Barsak to feel a chill in his heart.
"Forget it." Xiao Ran suddenly shook his head and said somewhat powerlessly: "In short, don't mess with me this time, and don't give me any more trouble. I will never let that Liz join our Corps, but if any of you have your own ideas, I don't mind."
Bassac muttered: "What, we haven't done anything yet."
Cruzet glanced at Bassac. Damn, this idiot, don't you already know what you're going to do? He's really a pig teammate, but he still nodded to indicate that he understood Xiao Ran's words.
Kreutzer opened his mouth and asked, "How likely do you think they will agree to cooperate?"
"Fifty-fifty, I'm very sure that the purpose of Todd's inheritance is only to improve his spiritual power, and he shouldn't care about other means." Xiao Ran shook his head and said: "But after showing them so many things today, I don't believe that they won't be tempted by the things in our hands."
Cruzet shook his head: "It's a pity, if we agree to let that Liz join the Corps, we can establish another channel for both sides."
Xiao Ran didn't quite agree with Cruzet's words: "It's hard to say whether Liz's influence in the Enlightenment Corps is that great, what is her role, and whether she is Todd's real sister. Even if she joins, what kind of positive influence can she bring to the two Corps? I'm not very optimistic about her role, but I'm just saying nice words."
"We should at least try." Cruzet laughed: "Maybe this is a honey trap, but we can also use the honey trap in reverse."
"You? Or Bassac? Or Uzzes? "
"I can't," Cruzet quickly waved his hand and glanced at Bassac: "This guy can't either."
Uzzes quickly said: "I'm very busy."
Xiao Ran asked: "Then who else among the core members is willing?"
Cruzet shook his head and laughed: "Indeed, it's very difficult to find suitable candidates. Even if we have people on our side who are willing, the other party may not necessarily cooperate."
Xiao Ran said: "Then let's stop talking about this issue. You should pay more attention to the movements of the Enlightenment Corps and Borsia during this period."
"Okay."
Xiao Ran knew that Cruzet and the others were preparing to play tricks again. Fortunately, he reacted quickly. After Liz said that she wanted to join the Burning Legion and said a lot of things, Xiao Ran reacted quickly. The more he said, the more Xiao Ran felt that something was wrong. He suddenly felt as if someone was spying on him. If his reaction had been slower, as Cruzet said, he felt that Liz joining might become a good channel for the Enlightenment Corps and could slowly influence the entire Enlightenment Corps through Liz, then the extent of these guys' tricks would skyrocket and become difficult to deal with.
After Todd left and returned to his own army, he was truly moved, especially when he saw Xiao Ran's final punch, which made him feel extremely envious.
Todd did not know how Xiao Ran did that punch, but he could tell that it was definitely a very powerful inheritance. The punch broke through the air with a ray of light, and it directly blew up a human body. In that case, if the target of this punch was a mech, would it be able to blow it up with one punch?
He did not know what this inheritance was, but the word 'powerful' was engraved in his heart. However, he did not know that Xiao Ran's punch was fake. It was not that the effect of the punch was fake, but that Xiao Ran used other methods to simulate a fake mini universe. Although it was a mini universe and had indeed reached a certain level, it was impossible for Xiao Ran to perform the moves of the Saint Seiya or Underworld Seiya. It was just an imitation that was forcefully activated by relying on his high senses and the huge amount of energy in his body.
However, Xiao Ran was still able to use psychokinesis related moves like the Aries Constellation's Crystal Wall, but that was all he could do. However, Todd didn't know that. He couldn't understand the characteristics and the true strength of Saint Seiya or Underworld Seiya. He was only shocked by Xiao Ran's punch.
As for the two inheritances of the Sorcerer and Paladin, Todd could not find any problems. The two people that Xiao Ran asked to demonstrate to them had indeed displayed the characteristics of the two class inheritances perfectly. The Sorcerer's versatility, the Paladin's steadiness, and when used together with the MS, they could achieve a corresponding increase in power. The combination of magic and Paladin's skills was also amazing. Those few seconds of invincibility were enough for an S-rank pilot to do a lot of things.
However, if he did not sign an all-around strategic alliance with the Burning Legion, then no matter how much he coveted it, he would never be able to come into contact with the series of inheritances in the universe. He would only be able to maintain a vague understanding of the inheritances, and it would be even more impossible for him to obtain a suitable body made with special technology. If he wanted to use the abilities of the Sorcerer and Paladin while piloting the body, even if he refined the abilities of the two classes to the highest level, he would not be able to compete with someone who was lower in level but had a suitable body.
This did not include the catalog that Xiao Ran showed them. Most of the items in the catalog had very detailed explanations. The S-rank portable armor was not a body, but it could display the combat ability of the body. It was small in size, agile, and destructive. When paired with the Paladin or Sorcerer inheritances, especially the punch that Xiao Ran demonstrated, it would definitely be very terrifying.
Swordsmanship, martial arts, magic, singers, these inheritances were all labeled in the catalog. The description of the singers in the catalog also made Todd very excited. The Legion Level Inheritances could greatly increase the combat power of one's own side, accelerate the recovery of one's own mental power, increase the attributes of one's own side, weaken the opponent's will to fight, interfere with the opponent's mental power, and weaken the opponent's attributes.
The advantages brought by one increase and one decrease were quite huge. As the head of a legion, Todd could see this.
Then there were the battleships. The Burning Legion's new battleships also existed in the catalog. The battleships ranged from thousands of meters to tens of thousands of meters in size. They also had the ability to destroy planets and attack beyond the horizon. This was definitely a sharp weapon for carrying out missions and army battles.
There was an unlimited supply of bloodlines, and there were many different types. Todd could not imagine how the Burning Legion was able to put bloodlines in the catalog. Furthermore, they were not low-level goods. Could it be that the Burning Legion had mastered the method to obtain bloodlines, or could it be that the Burning Legion had mastered the technology to create bloodlines?
This was too inconceivable and unimaginable.
There was also a super weapon in the catalog, but the price was quite high. A planetary fortress, an extraordinary planetary fortress. Could this thing be sold as a commodity? Furthermore, it wasn't a planetary fortress. It was at least of a certain scale and supported customization. It could even accommodate a 20,000-meter-long battleship, and the kind that could accommodate several fleets. This was no longer an ordinary planetary fortress.
Todd sighed. "What level has the Burning Legion's technological prowess reached? How deep is their foundation? There are so many different types of inheritances, battleships, airframes, all of them are unbelievably powerful."
Liz sat in front of Todd and said, "I just feel that they are very powerful. The Burning Legion must be hiding a lot of things, but as long as we don't sign a strategic alliance, we will never know, and we will never be able to purchase the things in the catalog from them."
"But that's not entirely the case. If we start a war with them, we will probably be able to find out about their strength and foundation."
Todd shook his head and smiled bitterly. "But this is obviously impossible. I didn't expect the Emerald Dream Legion to have reached such a comprehensive cooperation with the Burning Legion, and under those terms. After interacting with Azure Dragon for so long, I know what kind of person he is. If he wasn't sincerely convinced, he would never agree to such terms."
"Now that I think about it, I finally understand why Azure Dragon cared so much about Commander Xiao Ran. It wasn't because he cared, but because he respected him."
Liz said, "I think we can sign it. As long as we can get some benefits from the terms, then we can sign it. This isn't a bad thing for us, and among the top five legions, the Burning Legion and the Emerald Dream Legion are clearly on the same side. Borsia will also reach a certain degree of cooperation with the Burning Legion."
"As for the first, they have never participated in the affairs of other legions. This way, even if we have a relationship with Borsia, it won't be as close as the Burning Legion and the Emerald Dream Legion. They won't have two opinions because of one thing. The Burning Legion's opinion is equivalent to the Emerald Dream Legion's opinion, but we will also have differences with Borsia."
Todd looked at Liz and said, "But in that case, the Burning Legion's opinion will also become our opinion."
Liz calmly said, "But we are on the side of the strong. Strength is the truth, and this won't affect our continued cooperation with Borsia. At the same time, we will support the Burning Legion, and when we need it, there will also be two legions that will support us unconditionally. Moreover, they are the top five legions, so the right to speak will fall into the hands of our alliance."
Todd pondered and said, "As long as three of the top five legions are truly connected, then it's almost impossible for these three legions to be kicked out of the top five. The legion council and the five-man council will also act according to the thoughts of these three legions."
"The Burning Legion, Xiao Ran. As expected of the person who created this legion. No wonder the participants of this legion were able to stir up trouble in the mission without suffering any losses. Even when the legion commander is in such a state, he still didn't give up on grooming those members. That Secret Warriors Department is really not simple. This Xiao Ran was able to easily make us fall into his trap, and he even convinced us wholeheartedly. We couldn't find any problems with him at all. Those who are willing to take the bait can't be blamed on others."
Liz nodded and said, "That's why we need to hurry and join the Burning Legion before they include Borsia. Once Borsia decides to form that kind of cooperation with the Burning Legion … our importance will no longer exist."
