Mecha and Knife

The appearance of a rumor made Tu Yuan and Li Anbang, who were originally in the mode of peaceful negotiation, nervous.

Some people mysteriously said that Ji Xinghe's armor clone technique is not a real armor clone technique, but is realized by relying on a mysterious artificial intelligence life.

Someone said enviously that the reason why Ji Xinghe was able to appear invincible in the armor-piercing battle was because of the help of artificial intelligence life. If that artificial intelligence life is willing to help others, even technical soldiers who don't know how to drive mechas at all, can turn on the unparalleled mode on the battlefield.

Some people are full of worry that artificial intelligence life will bring disaster to all mankind if it is not restricted by human beings. Artificial intelligence life can help mankind, or it can destroy mankind.

Someone said angrily, you are all farting.

However, the spread speed of these rumors far exceeds the speed that normal rumors should spread. Considering the special environment of the alien planet, more than one million people are still at war.

It is easy to judge that this is a deliberate push by someone with a heart.

"not me."

"I know it's not you, but where is Ji Xinghe?"

"Ji Xinghe can understand that it is not me, and is willing to believe that it is not me."

Listening to Li Anbang's nonsense sentences, Tu Yuan knew in his heart that the other party could not be calm and composed, so he asked again.

"What about Xingyue?"

"..."

There was communication between Li Anbang and Xingyue, but Xingyue was King Solomon of the Council of Heroes at that time.

After Li Anbang guessed Xingyue's true identity, the two of them never communicated directly.

Judging from these two points, Xingyue has no trust in him.

"You want two things." Li Anbang's tone was calm, but he felt like he was giving an order: "First, let Xingyue know that I didn't do this thing, and I don't need to do it. Second, let Ji Xinghe will no longer use the Armor Clone technique to participate in the battle."

Tu Yuan pondered for a while: "You mean, the empire already knows about the armor clone technique, and has made targeted arrangements for it?"

Li Anbang reminded: "The emergence of rumors, from another perspective, is actually forcing Ji Xinghe to use the armor clone technique, and not allowing Su Chuanyun to enter the cockpit of the God's Punishment Armor to disguise."

Tu Yuan nodded: "So, the Zhenbei King of the empire has already transferred its sons who have Prince A."

Li Anbang added: "There is also the Imperial Prince, which should also be able to mobilize prince-level mechas, and an unknown number of duke armors."

"I'll tell them." After Tu Yuan responded, he asked again: "What do you think they got from the empire?"

Based on the communication delay between Azure Star and Yixing, after Tu Yuan asked this question, he should have heard Li Anbang's answer in the sixth minute.

But Li Anbang's voice sounded in the seventh minute.

"Tungsten steel, and the gift of 100% success."

"Adacon?"

"kindness."

When Li Anbang's conversation ended, Tu Yuan started another conversation.

"Xingyue, what do you want to say?"

In the past period of time, Xingyue would listen in on every conversation between Tu Yuan and Li Anbang.

It can be considered that Tu Yuan showed his frankness, and Li Anbang did the same. He must know that Tu Yuan did not avoid Xingyue, but he was still talking to Tu Yuan.

"I have nothing to say." There was obvious disappointment in Xingyue's tone.

But Tu Yuan seemed not aware of it, and said: "I can guess your existence, the marshal can also guess your existence, and Li Yuanba was able to guess it before. This shows that it is far more than us who can guess it. It is only because of them I couldn't get an answer from Li Yuanba, so I dare not be sure."

Xingyue remained silent, as if she was too lazy to talk to Tu Yuan.

Tu Yuan continued to speak.

"The key point here is whether Ji Xinghe knows the art of armor clone. And, whether Li Yuanba can use the art of armor clone.

If Li Yuanba can do it, even if it's just driving two mechas at the same time, it means that Ji Xinghe must be able to do it, even if it's driving five mechas at the same time. If other people can't do it, it's other people's problem. But if even Li Yuanba couldn't do it... then it would be Ji Xinghe's problem alone.

Ji Xinghe's problem is your problem. "

Xingyue asked back: "What's my problem? I help you humans fight the empire, is it my problem? Then should I help the empire fight you humans?"

Tu Yuan frowned: "Don't say such childish things, the problem of rumors is actually easy to solve, and you don't even need to pay attention to them. The key is, how do you choose?"

"Children's words? Do you know how old I am? Four years old!" Xingyue's tone became angry: "I'm only four years old, and you let me make a choice that affects eight billion human lives?"

Tu Yuan was silent.

Reasonably speaking, Xingyue is indeed only four years old, but the question is how can one look at Xingyue with a four-year-old child?

And what Xingyue said, the decision she has to make can affect the lives and deaths of 8 billion people, and it does have some truth, and this is the most important thing.

"I didn't make a decision before, but these rumors made me make a decision."

Xingyue's tone suddenly became lighter, and she said: "I have decided, Empire, we will fight by ourselves."

Although he had expected it, Tu Yuan became nervous when he actually heard the answer.

He had a lot to say, but it turned into a meaningless question when it came to his mouth.

"Why?"

"Because many people don't want to fight, but we must fight!"

Yes, there are many people who don't want to fight, especially after the Federation gradually gains the advantage in this war and some people know the information about the existence of the third civilization, they don't want to fight anymore.

The premise of the peace talks is that at least there must be an evenly matched situation. Otherwise, a large amount of benefits will need to be sold, which is unacceptable to everyone.

The crisis of the third civilization has made the peace talks "great". When some people say such things, they can be more confident and confident, and they can also convince more people.

Tu Yuan understands all this, so he must understand Xingyue's choice, and also understand that it must be Ji Xinghe's choice.

Tu Yuan was silent for a while, and then said a word: "We..."

So Xingyue laughed and listened to what Tu Yuan was saying with unprecedented seriousness.

"The preparation time is still too short. The previous plan was one and a half years, but now half a year has not passed. So I think we should bear it a little longer."

When Ji Xinghe was still on Azure Planet, the Council of Heroic Spirits determined that a major event would happen to Alien Star at a certain time in the future.

But at that time, only factors such as 'mercenaries' and 'peace talks' were considered, and they did not consider that the sudden change in the war would be so violent. Tu Yuan believed that after Ji Xinghe returned to Alien Star, it would take a year and a half to bring the situation to the present to the extent that they had to change.

"So, this is to blame the old man?"

Xingyue heheed twice: "The old man's return of the king is too king. It only took less than a few months to knock down the battle scar canyon, and shrunk all the imperial forces in the mountains of the gods. You didn't think of it, I didn't think of it, and everyone didn't think of it. So, let me help you connect with the old man, and you criticize him for disrupting our plan?"

"..." Tu Yuan said helplessly: "I'm serious, our preparations are not enough, just bear with me, and let the old man bear with it."

"Didn't you call him by his first name just now? Why are you calling him old man now?" Xingyue said as if joking: "We are right, so we shouldn't be the ones to bear it."

"But they..."

"They, one counts as one." Xingyue's tone became cold: "I will catch them all one by one, and then break all their legs. If they are not honest, then I will kill them all." Their necks were all broken."

Hearing Xingyue's straightforward threat, Tu Yuan breathed a sigh of relief.

Because what Xingyue said was to break the leg first, and then the neck, the difference may be the reason why Ji Xinghe trusted and supported Xingyue so much.

"The marshal just said that they may have obtained a large amount of tungsten steel and the gift of Idacon through information transactions with the empire. So, if you want to investigate, you should do it from these two aspects."

"I've already started to investigate. The tungsten alloy obtained by selling our information belongs to us of course."

The conversation between Xingyue and Tu Yuan went into a lot of details, and there are many key points, but it can be summed up in what Xingyue said just now - we will fight the empire ourselves.

To summarize more specifically, there are two key points: who we all have and how to fight.

Although Xingyue said that she shouldn't be patient, this matter is not a trip, and it can be said to leave.

But, it's really fast.

After discussing many details with Xingyue, Tu Yuan raised several key questions.

"Should we still retain the title of Marshal Pei?"

"Look at his performance."

"After all, he is a father and son, and they are all very powerful."

"Hehe, are the three of them better than the three of us?"

"The old man is better than Li Yuanba, and you are better than Li Zhengfan, but I'm definitely not as good as the Marshal."

"Do you have any misunderstandings?" Xingyue said sarcastically, "They are three members of the Li family, father and son, so I am talking about us, the old man, Xinxin, and me. Why, you want to be a member of the Ji family? May I introduce you, what about Xinxin's godson status?"

"..."

Tu Yuan knew that Xingyue was still upset that he failed to discuss this matter, but since Xingyue could tell him such a thing, Xingyue didn't have a big opinion of him in his heart, and his ability to understand this matter was limited.

"Then who are you from the Ji family?"

This rebuttal made Xingyue silent for a moment, and then said: "I belong to the Ji family, man!"

…………

The rumors that appeared suddenly had power that no one who spread the rumors could have imagined, and brought the Federation to a fork in the road of great changes in advance.

It is a bit of an exaggeration to say that the federation split directly due to a careless handling, but the morale boosted by the recent continuous victories will inevitably drop significantly.

Like a solar storm that is forming, no one can predict what kind of impact it will have on the blue star.

But Ji Xinghe, who was in the center of the storm, did not seem to be affected in any way, training, fighting, and giving gifts as usual.

No one even asked him what the truth was.

People from the independent group didn't ask, Jackson didn't ask, Han Li didn't ask, Yang Antai, Rovich, Tang Qiao... didn't ask, even Su He, who was responsible for dealing with such problems in the Heroic Spirit Council, didn't ask, just Multiple plans and preparations have been made.

But people don't ask, just because he is Ji Xinghe.

The rumors will not disappear, but intensified, also because he is Ji Xinghe.

Under such circumstances, every time Ji Xinghe drives two mechas to the battlefield at the same time, it will attract an unimaginable amount of attention.

Also receiving attention is Su Chuanyun.

As the official user of the God's Punishment Armor in the command sequence, every time Ji Xinghe used the God's Punishment Armor before, no one would pay attention to his thoughts, and he himself would not pay attention.

If Ji Xinghe wants to use it, what else is there to say?

But it's different now.

"Old man, are you really not letting me go?" Su Chuanyun said worriedly: "Didn't Xingyue say that the empire probably already knew about the existence of the Armor Clone Technique. They will definitely target it."

Ji Xinghe looked at Shen Mu, Lao Liu and others, who were doing maintenance inspections for the Xingyue Armor and the God's Punishment Armor before participating in the war.

With a calm expression, he asked softly: "Do you know the difference between the armor clone technique?"

There is actually no difference between the A clone technique and the remote operation mode for the empire. They are both problems that can be directly solved by using communication interference and shielding devices.

It's just that before, the empire couldn't confirm whether the two mechas that appeared on the battlefield at the same time were real people driving in the cockpit or using the remote operation mode. What's the difference.

Even with communication jamming, it would be difficult to ascertain the truth without at least Earl A's mech as Ji Xinghe's opponent, because the Federation still has the God of War mode.

The God of War mode was put on the Zhan Shanjia, but the effect was not very good, so I just played a dozen regular-level standard mechas of the empire. Compared with the cost of Zhan Shanjia, the benefits of defeating regular-level mechas, and the possible risks, the God of War mode really cannot be used.

But this does not mean that the God of War mode is not good. If it is placed on a state-level mecha such as the God's Punishment Armor and the Xingyue Armor, it will not be a big problem to beat the Earl Armor of the Empire. Of course, there are still risks.

"For the empire, there is definitely no difference. If they want to hit you, they will definitely use the communication shielding device to test first."

Su Chuanyun said seriously: "But what I'm talking about is not the empire's tactical response, but in the current situation, if I don't go, your operation level using the armor clone technique is too..."

"Too low-end?"

Ji Xinghe said what Su Chuanyun couldn't say, and then asked calmly: "A long time ago, I wanted to drive a mech to fight, and none of you agreed. At that time, is it similar to now?"

Su Chuanyun did not answer.

Ji Xinghe continued: "I have proven myself countless times, just because I want to drive mechas to fight against the empire, just because people doubt me. Now, I still want to drive mechas to fight against the empire, and some people still doubt me."

After a slight pause, Ji Xinghe looked at the two state-level mechas, at Shen Mu and the others who completely ignored all the rumors and doubts, and were doing their best, and at the trust that many people including Su Chuanyun cast eyes.

He said.

"I think I don't need to prove anything anymore."
