Dragon Raja 5; Chapter 145: Thunder and the Watcher (55)

Dragon Raja 5

The anchor chain swung back and forth like a real tail, and when it swung back the next time, Chu Zihang grabbed it.

Even a man like him who never showed his emotions wanted to clench his fists and say “Yeah!” The anchor chain was carrying him away from the immortals, and he could always climb back to the ship by following this last lifeline.

He can still see Nuonuo and Lu Mingfei. Of course, before that he will go to the steam room to release the trapped girl. He also has the opportunity to see Su Xiaoyan, of course, from a distance.

He relaxed and let the anchor chain drag him floating in the sea, like a boy flying a kite.

Lancelot opened the weapons box, and the gun lay quietly in the box.

It is made of black unknown metal, with a twisted shape, complex pneumatic rails, and a separate aiming helmet, with bullets of various functions arranged next to it.

Specially made by the Equipment Department, Victoria brought it all the way to Japan. Originally, Susie should have been responsible for operating this gun, but now Lancelot signaled Victoria with his eyes.

“You have received sufficient training to wield this weapon,” Lancelot whispered. “I have authorized you to do so.”

Victoria took a deep breath, put on her aiming helmet, and raised the heavy gun. When her right index finger touched the trigger, EVA’s voice came from the helmet, “Authorization verification passed. User Victoria Snowdon, authorized by ‘Watcher’ Lancelot. The satellite network is open to you. Kill authorization has been issued. Please use it properly, Your Highness.”

Although they were still in Japan’s territorial waters, EVA was already able to connect directly to the weapon via the satellite network, without going through Japan’s gateway, thus avoiding Kaguya’s interference.

Victoria should have been thrilled. Given her current position in the Executive Division, being able to replace Lei Ting in operating the weapon demonstrated Lancelot’s trust in her. But the words “permit to kill issued” made her heart sink. Now she could kill the former Student Union President without any worries…

But she had no right to hesitate. She was just a soldier on this battlefield. Soldiers must obey their commanders absolutely. This was the training she had received.

The helicopter door opened, and Isabel buckled the lanyard around her waist to prevent her from falling out. Victoria crouched and aimed downwards. The EVA’s network support was in place, and all targets within an 800-meter diameter on the sea were marked, whether they were seagulls rushing to avoid the wind or fish jumping up from the waves.

“I’ll make a final confirmation before shooting,” Lancelot ordered majestically.

“Yes!” Victoria replied.

As expected of a watcher, she admired in her heart.

They all felt that Lancelot was already in a state of confusion, but he still gave Victoria a warm order. This order meant that whether to shoot or not and who to shoot at was Lancelot’s decision and had nothing to do with Victoria.

As a fiancé, Lancelot might have been extremely anxious, but as a commander, he remained calm.

Lancelot and Aleyev agreed on an “anchorage” for anchoring, and such suitable locations were specially marked on the nautical chart. However, when they arrived at the anchorage, there was no sign of the ship on the sea, only bits of garbage floating on the surface.

Could it be that the ship sank? Isabel looked at Lancelot.

Not long ago, their communication with the ship was cut off again, and they could no longer track the Immortals’ signals. Once the ship sank, the signals on board would of course be completely blocked by the sea water.

“If it’s a shipwreck, there should be far more floating objects than there are now. Victoria, turn on the infrared aiming and have the helicopter cruise at the edge of the anchorage. There may be a deviation in the anchor position.” Lancelot thought for a moment and gave a new order.

Victoria activated the infrared aiming function of the helmet, and the built-in screen was filled with darkness, with the occasional red and yellow shadow of a flying bird. No other high-temperature targets could be found, and fish would not be displayed because they were cold-blooded animals.

Can we understand it this way, that a large part of Herzog’s information was composed by Bondarev, and perhaps these materials were actually provided by the Gattuso family in order to increase the success rate of Herzog’s experiment. In other words, Herzog was actually a test subject. Later, the Gattuso family obtained the information, and in order to destroy the evidence, they provided the Cassal Academy with the space-based kinetic weapon “Divine Punishment” to eliminate Herzog.

Ultimate goal: to create an artificial Dragon King and become the world’s overlord. Candidate: Caesar Gattuso. Incident: Caesar Gattuso falls in love with Nono (Chen Motong), but Nono is a disgrace to the Gattuso family. To eliminate Nono, Caesar disguises the killing as Lu Mingfei’s.

The above is the conclusion of the reasoning. The following is the conjecture. Lu Mingfei’s identity: It is impossible for him to be the Dragon King. Reason: Lu Mingze said that Lu Mingfei is not the Dragon King.

(Dragon Raja 5) Assuming what Lu Mingze said is true, then Lu Mingfei is the World Tree (high probability) (Reason: Herzog said, “I was so close to the secret of the world, but I missed it.”
