Dragon Raja 5; Chapter 353: For Your Majesty (168)

Dragon Raja 5

“Brother, have you ever thought about why that clone was so willing to risk his life for that girl?” Lu Mingze said quietly, his usual loud voice gone. “He knew perfectly well that she wasn’t his child, and he hadn’t even spent much time with that girl in his entire life.”

Lu Mingfei was taken aback, then came to his senses.

He hadn’t really thought about this question. He initially thought that Christina was really old Bunin’s biological daughter, so his fatherly love didn’t need any explanation, but that was actually a misunderstanding.

Even if it’s a child born to a woman he once loved, and he loves the child deeply out of remembrance of that woman, it’s not enough to make him willing to risk everything and die for her.

“Because he originally didn’t have his own life, only that child, which was proof that he had existed,” Lu Mingze said softly. “We have seen this world, we are not meaningless.”

Lu Mingfei was taken aback, vaguely realizing that he was talking about him, but when he tried to ask further, Lu Mingze turned back and continued drinking his cola.

Auchinez and SuEnxi hung side by side at the core of the fusion reactor. Auchinez looked like a blood-soaked corpse, while SuEnxi, though whipped a few times, still retained a human form.

The cunning old thief and the cunning old aunt, combined with their intelligence and experience, could at least be a theater commander on the battlefield or make a fortune in the stock market, but they were of no help in solving their current predicament.

This “nursery” was completely empty. It seems that as soon as that so-called holy child was born, the two of them became worthless. People would cover their noses and walk by if they saw them on the street, and they would not even want to step on them because they were dirty.

As Su Enxi was struggling, she suddenly heard Auchinez chuckle and shake his head as he laughed.

“If you have any life reflections, save them for when we’re out of here,” Su Enxi said impatiently. “Of course, if I were you, I would also feel a little disillusioned. But you’ve chosen the wrong boss, and there’s nothing we can do about it. As the old Chinese saying goes, ‘Men fear choosing the wrong career, and women fear marrying the wrong man.’ Your feeling of frustration is the same as if I suddenly married my boss one day.”

“What life advice? I’m laughing at that bastard Alexander Bunin’s death day!” Auchinez raised his head, his eyes fierce. “We’re in a fusion reactor, that’s the most terrifying thing here!”

“Didn’t you say they originally wanted to blow up City 023?” Su Enxi was taken aback.

“I thought they had made enough money and were going to end the game, but they bred so many clones of us just to keep the game going. So why would they blow up City 023?” Auchinez said. “They briefly restarted the reactor’s strong magnetic field, just to disrupt our nervous system, and then they shut it down. The fusion reactor’s core is still operating at very low efficiency, but we can increase its power to off the charts!”

“Theoretically, a tokamak device will not explode. It was originally developed for safe nuclear fusion.”

“Theoretically, the Chernobyl nuclear power plant shouldn’t have exploded, but it did. The basic design of this city was based on the Chernobyl nuclear power plant. Deuterium and tritium react to generate heat, which was then used to produce steam through a heat exchanger. The steam then drives a generator. Such a huge tokamak core requires a very large heat exchanger, but you haven’t seen that heat exchanger, have you?”

“Yes, you should have one or even several giant steam stations as heat exchange facilities.”

“This is where City 023 saves money. Its heat exchanger is an underground river deep in the rock strata. When the fusion reactor is turned on, the entire river boils. They build a small steam station every so often along the underground river, which saves a huge amount of construction costs. The tokamak device is not a bomb; that boiling underground river is.”

How do you know so much about the city’s design?

“After burying those Soviet captains, I took charge of the cleanup work in this city. That’s when I collected some of its blueprints,” Auchinez sneered. “How about it, woman? Are you in or not? Let Alexander Bunin and his hometown fly to the sky!”

Do we have time to escape from here?

“Of course! That cloned old guy prepared a hovercraft; that thing runs on the snow like it’s flying!” Auchinez said. “The key is in my pocket.”

Su Enxi thought for a moment, “No, I can’t let our people die for this city.”

Auchinez paused for a moment, then raised his voice in anger, “Think it through! That bastard who possesses both immortality and super soldier technologies! If these two technologies were to leak out, a world war could break out!”

“No means no!” Su Enxi said coldly. “So what if it’s a world war? What does it have to do with me? The sooner the world war starts, the less I have to suffer!”

Auchinez raised his blood-covered face and stared blankly at Su Enxi.

Su Enxi grew impatient with his gaze. “I’ve never told you I’m a good person, have I? I came to Siberia to do bad things too, it’s just that my bad deeds haven’t even started yet… Alright, alright, you wouldn’t understand even if I told you. Anyway, our secretary absolutely cannot die! We can start a world war for him!”

“I thought that princess was one of yours…”

Su Enxi realized she had let something slip in her haste and immediately stopped talking. The two of them remained silent for a while longer.

“There’s another way, we’ll start the reactor,” Auchinez said. “Then we’ll use that broadcasting system to call out to the entire city of 023 and use that to blackmail Alexander Bunin.”

Su Enxi thought for a moment, “That’s a feasible solution, but how do we get down to the ground?”

“I’ve got a plan. We can make a pendulum motion, and then we’ll collide.” Auchinez said. “I’ll seize the opportunity to bite your rope and help you untie the knot.”

“It seems somewhat feasible, but is there a more respectable way?”

“Now it’s your turn to bite my rope.”

“I’ve figured it out! Let’s start with it!” Ten minutes later, Su Enxi, her face bruised and swollen, fell heavily to the ground and shook off the ropes binding her.

The two were bruised and swollen because they collided many times during the pendulum’s movement, and almost kissed a few times. However, the old aunt and the old scoundrel had no romantic thoughts between them, and they preferred to bump foreheads together.

Su Enxi straightened her hair, regained her composure, picked up her dropped assault rifle, and fired several three-round bursts, finally managing to break the sling around Auchinez. The poor marksmanship of the finance staff was evident.

Auchinez landed precisely on the line of fire, looked up and glared at her angrily, “We’re all in the same boat now, why bother with these tricks?”
