"That's right, he perfectly fused with the King's Power, becoming a complete monster. With the King's Power, he is the most successful experimental subject, possessing ample data. With data, researching the King's Power will be very simple for him."
"What do you want to do?"
Jiang Shenya didn't think that Keido Shuichiro said so much just to tell him about Wang Xiaoming's information.
"You're very smart, Aya. You're the smartest child I've ever seen. You were very smart as a child, and you're still so smart now."
Keido Shuichiro looked at Jiang Shenya with a smile.
"I want your Funeral Parlor to help me get rid of that guy."
695. Conspiring Loudly in Front of Wang Xiaoming
Killing Wang Xiaoming, Keido Shuichiro and Jiang Shenya quickly reached an agreement on this point.
For Keido Shuichiro, Wang Xiaoming was there to snatch his position, and Wang Xiaoming's existence would seriously affect his future control over the Adam candidates.
For Jiang Shenya, Wang Xiaoming was also there to snatch the position, except that he was snatching Ouma Shu's position. Wang's position was directly snatched away by Wang Xiaoming, so that the tool he originally wanted, Ouma Shu, is still an ordinary person, unable to even hold a gun steadily. He's completely at the bottom of the Funeral Parlor, basically useless except for following Yuzuriha Inori around all day.
Therefore, for the sake of their own plans, both Keido Shuichiro and Jiang Shenya wanted Wang Xiaoming dead.
So, although Jiang Shenya very much wanted to kill Keido Shuichiro in his heart, he still agreed to Keido Shuichiro's request to cooperate in killing Wang Xiaoming.
Of course, most importantly, when killing Wang Xiaoming, Jiang Shenya wanted to do something else, such as, while killing Wang Xiaoming, also screwing over Keido Shuichiro!
Wang Xiaoming joined GHQ, and he was already someone Jiang Shenya had to kill, otherwise this King's Power holder would become the biggest obstacle on his path forward.
It's just a pity that when they were discussing how to get rid of Wang Xiaoming, Wang Xiaoming was eavesdropping on the whole process.
"Your Funeral Parlor are terrorists."
"We are not terrorists!"
"That's useless to me. You have to make the world think you're not terrorists, but right now, in the eyes of outsiders, you are terrorists, especially with what you've done. The people in Area 24 probably hate you even more than they hate GHQ. You should understand."
"Speak, what do you want to do?"
Ever since Wang Xiaoming pinned the label of terrorist on him, Jiang Shenya realized that he couldn't shake off this label. Even Keido Shuichiro was calling him a terrorist, the bastard!
"Although Wang Xiaoming's entry into GHQ has reduced my status in the research institute, I am still the director of the Void Genome Research Institute. So, I still have prestige in the GHQ army. As long as I tamper with things slightly in the army, I can arrange for him to enter the combat unit. Moreover, he is already a captain, and also the captain of the Anti-Apocalypse Squad, so it's perfectly fine for him to go into battle."
"How is he going to fight?"
"That, of course, depends on your ability. As terrorists, it shouldn't be a problem for you to cause a little trouble, right? Especially since you stole the Void Genome before and created the monster Wang Xiaoming. Now that you've reappeared, GHQ will definitely want to tear you to pieces. The army will definitely be mobilized, and Wang Xiaoming, as the captain of the action squad, will also be mobilized, right?"
"You want us to be bait to die?"
"No, no, no, being bait is real, but dying isn't. Didn't I say that we two are cooperating to kill Wang Xiaoming? How can you say it's sending you to your death?"
Keido Shuichiro looked like it was only natural.
"You're just bait, but after the bait, I will give you all the information about how many people GHQ has mobilized and from which direction they are attacking. Then you can use GHQ's deployment to make corresponding reverse responses, right?"
"Oh? Can you guarantee that the information you give me is real?"
Jiang Shenya didn't believe Keido Shuichiro. That guy couldn't wait to kill him.
Originally, Keido Shuichiro wanted to cultivate Jiang Shenya to be Adam, but later he no longer had the idea of letting Jiang Shenya be Adam. As the human ancestor of the new world, he wanted to be it himself.
That's right, he, an old man, wanted to marry Ouma Mana and become the Adam beside Ouma Mana, this Eve.
So, no one could affect his plan.
"We're cooperating, aren't we? If we're cooperating, of course I have to give you real information. After all, if the information I give you is fake, then who will solve Wang Xiaoming? I'm still counting on you to help me get rid of Wang Xiaoming."
Saying they were cooperating, Keido Shuichiro also made it very clear that once he felt the cooperation was over, the information given to Jiang Shenya would be fake.
Jiang Shenya also understood what Keido Shuichiro meant. In short, it was to threaten Jiang Shenya and then use each other. If Jiang Shenya disagreed, their Funeral Parlor might be wiped out tonight. If he agreed, then they would be wiped out only after their value was squeezed dry.
As for whether they would be wiped out later, it would depend on whether Jiang Shenya and the others could avoid Keido Shuichiro's search.
After all, Keido Shuichiro was able to search for their new base, which meant that the other party had been watching them all along.
The Funeral Parlor's movements were still very secretive, but the fact that they were discovered so easily by the other party also meant that there was a mole!
Jiang Shenya looked at Keido Shuichiro while thinking about who the mole was, and at the same time answered verbally.
"Then it depends on how much information you can give me."
"Don't worry, the information will definitely satisfy you. When the time comes, Wang Xiaoming will be handed over to you."
"It's okay to hand Wang Xiaoming over to me, but I need a squad of Anti-Apocalypse."
"Huh?"
"You don't think that with just the little bit we have in our hands, we can kill a King's Power holder who can take apart a squad of Intermediate Endlaves by himself, right? If you really think so, then I can only wish you a sweet dream."
"Then I can also tell you that a squad of Intermediate Endlaves is also a sweet dream. What do you think the Anti-Apocalypse are? They are the new era's land warfare weapons. You actually want a squad? If you want it, I can only risk giving you one at most."
"Very good, deal. I want it tonight."
"......"
Keido Shuichiro felt that he had been tricked by Jiang Shenya. This guy wanted one from the start, deliberately said he wanted a squad, and then let himself jump in.
"I will have someone send the Anti-Apocalypse over tonight. Be prepared to receive it."
Keido Shuichiro was very angry, but in order to get rid of Wang Xiaoming first, he chose to endure it. After all, Wang Xiaoming's current threat was much greater than Jiang Shenya's. In his opinion, Jiang Shenya was always a controllable variable, while Wang Xiaoming was uncontrollable.
After discussing it, Keido Shuichiro got up and left, leaving Jiang Shenya in the conference room to think about who the mole was in the Funeral Parlor.
After listening to the whole process, Wang Xiaoming couldn't help but laugh after going out.
"This plan looks really simple."
Wang Xiaoming still found it very interesting that the two of them were conspiring loudly in front of him.
"Since the two of them have worked so hard to plan, then I have to give them a little face and be fooled properly."
696. The Plan Against Wang Xiaoming Begins
Keido Shuichiro executed the plan he arranged for Wang Xiaoming very quickly.
After returning to GHQ, he immediately used his connections to get a retired Anti-Apocalypse. That's right, it was retired.
After all, I promised to give you an Anti-Apocalypse, but I didn't say I would give you a brand new one, right? A retired one can also be used, can't it?
Retired Anti-Apocalypse are essentially what GHQ sells to others to make money. After all, others can't use this thing at all, so it's very common for GHQ to secretly sell it to make some money. Everyone is used to this kind of thing.
Otherwise, how did the Funeral Parlor get the Anti-Apocalypse in their hands? The Funeral Parlor doesn't have its own military factory to process and manufacture it, does it? It was still bought through special channels.
A retired Anti-Apocalypse was secretly transported by truck to the Funeral Parlor's territory in Area 24 and handed over to Jiang Shenya.
Jiang Shenya looked at this dilapidated Anti-Apocalypse. Although he was very unhappy, he was also very helpless. Cooperating with Keido Shuichiro was an extremely dangerous thing in itself. That guy only thought about himself. If he sent him a brand new Anti-Apocalypse, Jiang Shenya would feel that something was wrong, such as whether there were any bombs or locators hidden inside.
Although what was delivered now is an old, worn-out model, at least it's somewhat reassuring.
After having Tsugumi check the program to see if it was usable and whether any backdoors or tracking programs had been installed internally, it was put into training.
After all, training a pilot for the Endlave isn't something that can be done in a day or two.
This old Endlave will be Ouma Shu's ride.
As for why it's Ouma Shu, that's because Gai has things to do himself. He needs to command from the rear, not stand at the front piloting the Endlave to fight others. That would only limit him. After all, during battle, he doesn't have much energy to think about other things.
As for whether Ouma Shu can successfully pilot it, that's a test for Ouma Shu. He no longer has the Power of the King. Having joined Funeral Parlor, if he wants to continue hovering around Yuzuriha Inori, he needs to do something else.
As for whether Ouma Shu can actually learn, that's not something Gai needs to worry about, because Gai already knows how to use Ouma Shu. That guy only has Yuzuriha Inori in his eyes.
If he's afraid of death, then as long as Yuzuriha Inori is used to order him in front of Ouma Shu, then he will fight desperately. If he's depressed, just have Yuzuriha Inori coax him a little, and he will perk up again. Simple and easy to use, he's simply the perfect tool!
Gai believes that Ouma Shu can do it, because he was chosen by Mana as Adam, so he should have some ability.
And Ouma Shu indeed didn't disappoint Gai. He originally didn't know anything, but there's a powerful pilot in Funeral Parlor, Ayase Shinomiya. She's a person with paralyzed legs, who usually has to use a wheelchair to move around, but perhaps because her feet can't walk, her talent in operating machines is extremely strong. Therefore, she was PUA'd by Gai and became the Endlave pilot of Funeral Parlor, with combat ability even at the elite level.
With Ayase Shinomiya's guidance, Ouma Shu learned to pilot very quickly. He soon learned to pilot the Endlave, and even learned it quite well. In simulated training, he could even go fifty-fifty with Ayase Shinomiya in the end.
Giving Ayase Shinomiya the feeling that her many years of slavery were all dog shit.
After all, genius is the biggest blow to those who have worked hard for many years.
However, Ayase Shinomiya wasn't too frustrated, because she was teaching Ouma Shu at Gai's request, it was just Gai's task!
In Funeral Parlor, 90% of the people were PUA'd by Gai with his personal charm and various coaxing methods. Ayase Shinomiya is no exception, so as long as it's Gai's order, Ayase Shinomiya will execute it.
Ouma Shu is indeed worthy of being the male lead. In three days, he learned the advanced operations of the Endlave.
But unfortunately, Gai doesn't intend to have him face Wang Xiaoming, because the task he gave Ouma Shu is another matter.
Three days passed, and Keido Shuichiro sent a message, telling Gai to start making trouble.
Gai looked at the request sent by Keido Shuichiro, smiled coldly, and then began to arrange for the people of Funeral Parlor to take action.
"Gai, what's our target this time?"
The ordinary people of Funeral Parlor don't know that Gai and Keido Shuichiro have cooperated, so when Gai announces that there will be activities, they are all very curious about what to do this time.
Last time, they stole very important Void Genomes from GHQ, but unexpectedly, the Void Genomes ended up in someone else's hands as soon as they got them. That person was unbelievably fierce on the battlefield, single-handedly taking down an entire Endlave squad.
After Wang Xiaoming left, the people of Funeral Parlor thought about how good it would be if that power was in their hands.
Now, hearing that Gai is going to take action again, the people of Funeral Parlor are excited again.
"Are we going to GHQ to get new things?"
Although Gai hasn't said it yet, the people of Funeral Parlor already feel that Gai's target is something from GHQ.
"That's right, our target this time is still GHQ."
Gai didn't disappoint them, and directly confirmed that the target was GHQ, but what else can Funeral Parlor do besides targeting GHQ? The purpose of building this thing is to target GHQ. If they don't target GHQ, they will have nothing to do.
"Is it Void Genomes?"
"Not this time."
There certainly won't be only one Void Genome in the Void Research Institute. There are quite a few of those things, but the problem is that everyone who has used them says they are good after death, so even if there are more of those things, they are useless.
Gai doesn't think he can get Void Genomes now. There was a theft once, and the second time is too difficult to get. Moreover, Keido Shuichiro certainly won't let him get the second one during this time.
"Then what is our target this time?"
"Remember the man who took the Power of the King from us before?"
"That hateful blondie!"
Wang Xiaoming finally has a day to be called a blondie.
They hate Wang Xiaoming, the blondie who took the Power of the King from them, because Wang Xiaoming said they were terrorists, but the detailed content said later was only heard by Gai and a few others, so the others don't know the nature of Funeral Parlor at all, they just feel that they have been scolded as terrorists.
How can this work? They are Funeral Parlor, working hard to save Japan and save the world!
"Our target this time is him! After he took our Power of the King, he joined GHQ and became our enemy. Therefore, this time we will defeat him with our own hands!"
670. Endlave Squad, Attack
In addition to their headquarters in the port area, GHQ also has many outposts outside. Naturally, there are also some guarding soldiers in those outposts. After all, GHQ can't always start from the headquarters every time they dispatch, otherwise, the road to some remote places would be too far.
Therefore, they will directly depart from the outposts when they encounter some small things, so that they can quickly reach the action location.
Funeral Parlor's action this time is to attack one of the outposts.
According to Funeral Parlor's previous actions, they are not qualified to take the initiative to attack, but now they have a "new" Endlave, so they can try it in terms of combat power.
Moreover, they are launching a sneak attack, attacking and running, and drilling into the crowd. As for whether it will kill those innocent passers-by, that is not something they care about. These are all necessary sacrifices to save Japan!
According to Keido Shuichiro's request, Gai needs to lead Funeral Parlor to attack a GHQ outpost located at the Tokyo Bay port.
This base is not very far from the GHQ headquarters, about ten kilometers away. The distance of ten kilometers means that it won't take too long for GHQ to support, but it won't be too short either, which is just right for Funeral Parlor to act.
Moreover, the fact that Funeral Parlor dares to attack the outpost next to the GHQ headquarters will make GHQ very angry, and the troops sent will definitely be elite enough, and the number will definitely be enough, so the combat power of GHQ can also be guaranteed.
Because of this, it is also convenient for GHQ to send more people over.
For Keido Shuichiro, this allows him to directly kill Gai after Gai kills Wang Xiaoming by using GHQ's sufficient troops. In one fell swoop, Wang Xiaoming is killed by Gai, he kills Gai, and both opposing targets are solved. He once again completely controls the Void Research Institute, and also obtains the data sent from Wang Xiaoming, once again controlling everything!
Funeral Parlor's action was very fast. They used Tsugumi's hacking ability to successfully hack the cameras on the video. Along the way, they drove trucks, carrying the Endlave, and rushed through the city. Those cameras captured everything, but none of them transmitted the data back.
The Funeral Parlor squad drove three trucks carrying 2 Endlaves to the outside of the GHQ outpost, and then prepared to start the action.
As the commander, Gai is naturally also in the team. He looked at the walls of the GHQ outpost in the distance and began to issue orders.
"Ayase, you pilot the Endlave and stand by in stealth nearby."
