Chapter 117: #117 - Illiterate, but knows military tactics

On the courtroom's large screen, a familiar cabin environment appeared.

Wang Jixuan, standing before the projection screen, immediately noticed that the background was seven or eight parts similar to the cabin background that Dragonfly Aunt had shown when communicating with Maned Bear...

Could it be the same model?

At this moment, the aircraft was in flight, while Dragonfly Aunt's vehicle was hidden motionless in the desert.

A graceful figure appeared in the frame, a woman wearing a mask, a burgundy evening dress, and fiery red lipstick. She held a glass of red wine and sat elegantly in front of the camera, a slight sneer playing on her red lips.

Her lips moved constantly, as if she were saying something, and coupled with her sneer and cold eyes, it made people feel a chill.

It was…

"Is there no sound?"

Zhou Zhengde asked the technician in the corner.

The technician hurriedly called out, "They can hear us over there! Team Leader Zhou! I just fought back against their intrusion and broke their equipment. I'll fix it for them right away…"

The woman, who kept speaking, paused, turned her head, and said something to the side. It seemed they were also making technical adjustments over there.

Laughter arose from some of the older people in the courtroom.

The four defendants in the dock looked embarrassed.

Inside the temporary supply station, Drillmaster Hei also laughed and cursed next to Wang Jixuan's ear:

"A bunch of good-for-nothings! They want to rule the world with this? They can't even handle a network attack! Hahaha!"

Daoist Wang smiled without saying a word.

Finally, normal conversation came from the projection screen.

The woman wearing the evening dress and mask said in a cold voice:

"It's been hard on you all to gather together and arbitrarily judge us, the spiritual energy users and researchers.

"My name is Mo Feng. You've already displayed my photo, but the Spiritual Control Council and the Judgment Group you mentioned are just childishly ridiculous, like a third-rate comic book bought from a street stall, full of conspiracy theories and your own fantasies. Can't you open your eyes and look at this world?

"I come from… the Dark Dawn terrorist organization, and have nothing to do with Spiritual Energy City. The retaliation that I and my team will inflict on you has no political intentions, but is simply because we don't like you."

"Objection!"

Zhou Zhengde decisively raised his hand and asked in his deep and powerful voice:

"The Dark Dawn organization does not exist on our registration list!"

Mo Feng immediately said, "This is a new organization that hasn't had time to register yet."

"Objection! You're just trying to exonerate the Spiritual Control Council and prevent us from retaliating against the actual controllers of the Spiritual Control Council, because there is no institution that allows terrorist organizations to register!"

Zhou Zhengde clicked his tongue.

"Moreover, terrorists don't call themselves terrorist organizations, just like you wouldn't say you're a trashy, perverted murderer.

"What is the organizational program of your Dark Dawn? What is your purpose? What are your demands? If launching a terrorist attack is simply for revenge, then what happened that you must take revenge? Please tell us!"

Mo Feng narrowed her phoenix eyes slightly: "Are you a Mouth Spiritual Energy User?"

Zhou Zhengde cried out loudly, "So you're not a terrorist organization at all! Or rather, the Spiritual Control Council is the largest terrorist organization in the Fortress Era! You parasitize Spiritual Energy City, attempting to rule all of humanity through violence and panic! Launching spiritual energy invasions in various war zones!"

Mo Feng raised her hand to her forehead and turned to ask someone off-screen, "What do I do now? I can't win against this guy."

A man's sigh came from off-screen: "Just follow our organization's plan. Don't talk to me."

"Communicating with these ordinary humans is very painful for me,"

Mo Feng complained:

"I can crush him like an ant, but I still have to talk to him as equals? This is the most absurd thing in the world! He should be kneeling in front of me, licking my high heels, preferably wearing only gym shorts, exposing his sexy abs."

"We're live, they're broadcasting globally, Captain Mo Feng!"

"What's wrong with that? They can come and catch me if they have the ability."

Mo Feng chuckled and looked at the camera, saying slowly:

"Zhou Zhengde, how about we play a game?"

Zhou Zhengde said quickly, "First of all, I cannot represent any camp! Secondly, I personally oppose entertaining serious matters! Furthermore… you are not sexy at all, your waist-to-hip ratio is very poor, and the skin on your neck is very loose."

"Enough!"

Mo Feng's voice suddenly sharpened:

"Don't think that I won't dare to kill you just because your maternal grandfather is Fu Jian!"

A sigh came from the side, and someone handed Mo Feng a piece of paper: "Show this, just show this, this is simply a negotiation disaster."

Mo Feng pursed her lips and turned the piece of paper over, aiming it at the camera.

The technician in the corner of the courtroom immediately flipped the image horizontally so that everyone could read it normally.

[This is a preview:

Within 24 hours, I will drop an ice meteorite thirty meters in diameter over Fortress 82, with the impact point being the surface camp of Fortress 82. This is our Dark Dawn organization's punishment for your wanton killing of spiritual energy users. We are committed to protecting all the rights of every low-level and quasi-spiritual energy user.

Friendly reminder: Only large, specially-made mecha exclusive to semi-human mecha have a chance to break this meteorite.]

The paper was taken away.

Mo Feng sneered: "How is it? Isn't it very interesting? Zhou Zhengde, you caused all of this. You dared to slander me, I will definitely let you know…"

Whoosh!

The screen instantly went black, but the conversation could still be heard, Mo Feng was talking to two men and one woman.

Mo Feng: "Why did you turn off the communication!"

"Captain, this is too embarrassing! Why are you threatening an ordinary human individual?"

"He said I'm not sexy at all! Aren't my legs long enough? Aren't my breasts big enough? I transferred half a pound of fat from my butt to my breasts! That's why my butt is a little saggy!"

"That's not the point! Captain! We want to declare war on D5 with this newly formed organization, not on a small team leader like Zhou Zhengde! If they want to admit defeat later and strip Zhou Zhengde down to his underwear and send him to you, are you just going to forgive them?"

"Hmm… it's not impossible, he's very handsome, isn't he? I just don't know how his endurance is."

"Uh, our microphone isn't off… it's being controlled by the other side! That's bad! Captain! Don't say anything, Captain! Everyone shut up! Quickly unplug the power to this thing!"

The squeaking noise spread throughout the military court.

A group of people had black lines all over their foreheads, Zhou Zhengde couldn't help but raise his hand to his forehead, and Bin Zhongzhi and the other four had nothing but despair in their eyes.

The judge, however, was experienced and knowledgeable, and calmly tapped the gavel:

"Due to unforeseen circumstances, court is temporarily adjourned."

"Haha! Hahahahaha!"

Drillmaster Hei tried to stop himself from laughing, but finally burst into laughter.

Wang Jixuan, on the other hand, had black lines all over his forehead.

"Old man, what are you laughing at? They're attacking us!"

"Laughing at these people being idiots! Hahahaha!"

Drillmaster Hei almost gave Wang Jixuan an internal injury with a slap, and kept complaining:

"These spiritual energy users are all uncultured, hahahaha! From a young age, they've been constantly training for various body parameters and indicators, and very few of them seriously study cultural courses!

"This Mo Feng is quite stylish when she doesn't speak, but as soon as she opens her mouth, she exposes her illiteracy! Hahahaha!

"Do you know why she directly took out that piece of paper? Because she might not be able to read, hahahaha!"

Wang Jixuan pondered for a few seconds and looked at Peony: "Insult him a little, let Grandpa Hei calm down."

"Okay, Chief."

Peony pursed her lips and smiled lightly, opening her mouth gracefully:

"Drillmaster Hei, you can still laugh, we are now being bullied and suppressed by these illiterates, to the point that she killed more than five thousand people, and the D5 war zone can't directly arrest her for trial."

Old Hei's laughter stopped abruptly.

He rubbed his eyebrows with a dark face and muttered:

"You're right, what comes next is crucial, we have to find a way to kill Mo Feng.

"If we eliminate this guy, who is known to be ranked 36th in overall S-level strength, it will also be a significant blow to Spiritual Energy City."

Wang Jixuan asked, "Does this Dark Dawn organization really not exist?"

"Just a clumsy excuse, leaving them room for political maneuvering."

Drillmaster Hei said seriously:

"They're denying it now because they're afraid that our Commander-in-Chief will attack the Six Elders.

"In fact, unless absolutely necessary, we don't want to throw away this dog chain. Using nuclear bombs to tether those six old bastards allows us to maintain the last bit of influence over Spiritual Energy City.

"I mentioned it to you earlier, they secretly built a huge concrete cover, surrounding the Six Elders' residence, reducing our deterrence against Spiritual Energy City.

The latest and most complete novels are available first on !

"Prepare for battle… Do we need to dig more underground here?"

Wang Jixuan said, "No need, you take care of important matters, don't worry too much about me."

"Okay," Drillmaster Hei said, "These guys are predicting a meteorite attack, it shouldn't be that simple, they may be feinting to the east and attacking to the west, or they may randomly attack other fortresses. This Mo Feng must be killed, her ability is too threatening to ordinary people."

Wang Jixuan asked, "Mo Feng, are these names directly related to their abilities?"

"Generally, they are."

"Then why is she called Mo Feng?"

"These data are still missing, maybe because her heart is relatively dark?"

Drillmaster Hei stood up:

"I'm going to supervise their dispatch. If necessary, I will directly protect the people and ordinary soldiers.

"You don't need to worry too much, just focus on researching here, and keep an eye on Dragonfly Aunt's investigation team, that's enough."

Wang Jixuan hesitated to speak.

What he actually wanted to say was that if it was impossible to defend, they should evacuate Fortress 82 ahead of time.

However, according to the books he had read, the mass migration of hundreds of thousands of humans was highly likely to attract a large-scale attack from Bladebeasts.

Relatively speaking, it was safer inside the fortress.

Peony whispered, "Commander, although the Semi-Mechanized Officer's modifications aren't entirely pure, the energy stored within him is terrifying. Therefore, you don't need to worry about him; he is an extremely powerful warrior."

"Old Hei is protecting me; how could I be qualified to worry about him?"

Wang Daochang chuckled:

"Peony, continue to monitor that investigation team, but don't alarm them. If they coordinate with Mo Feng, report it to Old Hei immediately."

Peony pressed her hands together under her cheeks and said in a cutesy voice, "Yes, sir, Commander!"

"Stop acting cute when you have nothing to do."

Wang Daochang glared at her and strolled back to his room.

Peony puffed out her cheeks and released a small drone to scan her body data, starting to ponder the plastic surgery methods Mo Feng had mentioned earlier.

Mass determines gravity; this is a law of physics.

She secretly scanned her commander and noticed that he had begun absorbing spirit energy again, so she didn't dare to disturb him too much. Instead, she started using the equipment at hand to do some simple preparatory work.

… …

A dozen hours later, in the early hours of the morning.

Wang Jixuan was awakened from his meditative state by a 'di di di' sound. Ling Tong had sent several messages in a row.

【Ling Tong: Leave the vicinity of Fortress 82 as soon as possible. Mo Feng's spirit energy signal has appeared.】

【Ling Tong: A rain cloud... They created a small rain cloud elsewhere and condensed it into an ice ball, which will be released towards Fortress 82 in a few minutes, recreating the tragedy of the last C-area expansion.】

【Ling Tong: We've also made preparations… I'm getting into my mech now. I have to turn off communication. Don't be reckless; this isn't your fight.】

Wang Daochang smiled knowingly.

She really is quite caring.

What does 'getting into my mech' mean? Is she going to be responsible for dealing with the ice 'meteorite'?

Wang Jixuan felt a slight worry. He scanned with his spiritual sense and saw that Instructor Hei was in a meeting, and Peony was staring at the radar screen in front of her, which displayed various information.

Wang Jixuan hurried over: "What's the situation?"

"Commander, please sit down."

Peony immediately stood up and pointed to the radar screen to explain:

"I've overlaid several detection methods on the radar, so you can see it clearly at a glance."

"Mo Feng and the other two spirit energy users' spirit energy signals have appeared outside the atmosphere. Our side has already dispatched space fighters to pursue them."

"Fortresses 76 and 82 each have two 15-meter-class pseudo-terror mechs. Commander Ling Tong, who secretly admires you, is near Fortress 82. She arrived two hours ago, but her signal was quickly given higher access privileges. She should be the pilot of the pseudo-terror mech here…"

"It's coming! Target altitude is twelve thousand meters!"

Peony's fingers rapidly tapped the air, and several projection screens appeared in front of Wang Jixuan.

Wang Jixuan subconsciously looked up.

His spiritual sense detected a pressure from above, a powerful, mottled aura.

On the projection screen in front of him, a huge ice ball was falling from the sky. The diameter of this ice ball was not as large as the one that destroyed the C-area expansion of Fortress 76 last time.

'They called it a meteorite? I thought it would be earth-elemental magic.'

'Gathering water vapor, condensing it into ice, and then covering the outer layer with a special gas to protect it from the heat of atmospheric friction and using this gas to increase its mass… The method is crude but effective.'

'How will our side respond?'

As Wang Jixuan was thinking, in the corner of the screen, the missile positions near Fortress 82 emitted dazzling contrails.

Two rockets were launched into the air!

The rockets carried two slender, fifteen-meter-tall mechs with incredibly smooth lines.

Wang Jixuan had seen the silver-white mech before; it was Ling Tong's exclusive mech and also Ling Tong's current highest combat power configuration, which had once single-handedly killed a general-level Bladebeast in the Fortress 76 defense battle.

The scarlet-red mech of the same model clearly had Chi She as its pilot;—because Chi She had pasted her glamour shots on the mech's chest.

The rockets ascended, the mechs detached, leaving butterfly contrails.

The two mechs continued to ascend.

Chi She piloted her mech, raised the dark muzzle of the cannon, and fired a beam of destructive cannon light, hitting the center of the ice ball!

Ling Tong's mech pulled out a huge laser sword from its back, fully accelerated, and continued to shoot towards the high altitude, slashing at the already cracked ice ball!

Just as all eyes were simultaneously converging on the high altitude, three or four figures quietly emerged from the sand dunes of the Sarri Desert, sneaking towards the surface military camp.

"Hmm?"

Wang Jixuan's spiritual sense caught this anomaly at the edge of his perception.
