"But sometimes you have to be careful not to be too clever for your own good."
Xia Shu's deep voice entered Albert's ears word by word, echoing in his skull. Instantly, a pressure as heavy as a mountain erupted, rendering him speechless for a moment.
The atmosphere was extremely cold.
Marshal Stoke was also worried that what he had previously anticipated would happen.
He quickly stepped forward and said, "Mr. Natsuki, we absolutely had no intention of infringing on your personal interests."
"I hope that we can reach a cooperation agreement in a way that satisfies both of us."
Natsuki also has different attitudes towards different people.
He knew that Marshal Strick was a good man, so his expression gradually returned from serious to its usual casualness.
"Of course, I know that Marshal Steker has no such idea."
"I was only talking about extreme cases."
"Don't take it seriously," Xia Shu said, waving her hand. Her expression was much more amiable when facing Marshal Stark. Then she asked, "By the way, when will the plan be implemented?"
Should we really not take it seriously?
Marshal Strucker wondered to himself.
He understood this was a warning, and a reminder that he needed to manage his subordinates better.
His attitude towards Natsuki was set from the beginning: he could only befriend her, not antagonize her. It seems he'll need to have a serious talk with Dr. Albert next...
“Time is of the essence, and we will take action as quickly as possible,” he replied.
Chapter 27 This script is wrong!
Ten minutes later, Natsuki and Marshal Stark left the laboratory.
Walking through the corridors of the Shattered Dome base.
"This is our detailed plan."
"I hope you can join us the day after tomorrow."
Marshal Stark spoke to Natsuki as they walked.
Regardless of what Natsuki said to Dr. Albert, the fact that the other party proactively told her about the three-minute combat time limit demonstrated complete trust.
Although he had earned this trust himself, he would never betray it.
Despite being of a different race, he was still willing to help and trust humans; he had clearly felt this kindness.
“No problem,” Xia Shu nodded.
"You can arrange the plans according to your own habits, and I will cooperate with you as much as possible."
Marshal Steke breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing that Natsuki was so easy to talk to.
Fortunately, the other party was not angry about what happened in the lab.
Despite the fact that the other party was from outer space and had the power to overturn tables at any time, he felt that meeting Natsuki was a completely lucky thing after spending time together.
Marshal Strick thought that negotiating with Mr. Natsuki was much simpler than dealing with those guys at the United Nations.
"I need to borrow one of your mechs to play with."
"I don't think you'll refuse this offer, will you?" Xia Shu turned to him and asked. "Any one is fine with me, I'm not picky."
When Natsuki first saw those mechs in the hangar, she felt a little curious.
While it's easier to fight personally, piloting a mech can also be a lot of fun.
As people get older, they naturally develop a strong interest in strange and unusual things.
He still remembered what Raleigh had reminded him of during the competition.
“This…” Marshal Stark pondered for a moment.
Currently, there are only four mechs in good working order and ready for combat: Gipsy Danger, Cherno Alpha, Crimson Storm, and Eureka Raider.
Apart from the Dangerous Gipsy, the other three mechs already have pilots who have been training together for many years, and the pilot for the Dangerous Gipsy should be finalized today if all goes well.
Which mecha should we give to Mr. Natsuki...?
Marshal Stark was seriously considering this issue; these four mechs were all intended to carry out important missions.
Besides these four mechs... oh right.
“Mr. Natsuki.” He suddenly remembered something, stopped and looked at Natsuki, “Besides the four mechs with confirmed pilots, we actually have one more mech with some defects.”
Considering that the other party was most likely piloting the mecha out of interest and had not yet mastered the corresponding mecha piloting skills, he believed that this mecha was the most suitable.
To satisfy Natsuki's interest, sacrificing an incomplete mecha is perfectly acceptable.
"That mech was repaired by Dr. Albert. Apart from some defects in the dual-person mental synchronization system, everything else is normal."
"If you'd like to experience this mech, we can temporarily modify it and switch to simulated control, but you can only perform some simple actions."
Hearing him say that...
Xia Shu stroked her chin thoughtfully for a moment.
"As long as the main body of the mecha is fine, I don't need two people to synchronize their minds when I pilot the mecha; I can pilot it alone."
Yesterday evening, when he arrived at the base by helicopter, Raleigh had talked to him about the mechs.
He knew that this dual-person mental synchronization system was designed to alleviate the mental stress of individual drivers.
I have absolutely no need for this thing.
Besides, he couldn't possibly communicate with humans; those long memories would instantly engulf the other person, causing them to lose themselves.
"Are you sure?" Marshal Stark asked worriedly. "The mental strain of piloting a mech alone is immense; almost no one can pilot a mech alone."
He knew that Natsuki was very strong in combat, but he was unsure whether she had the same level of mental strength.
"Don't worry, I'm pretty smart," Xia Shu said with a confident smile.
It's just a mecha; no matter how much mental damage it inflicts, it can't possibly be as great as those monsters with curse abilities.
Having been in the Space Garrison for so many years, what kind of situation hasn't he seen?
“Alright, please follow me.” Marshal Strucker nodded with some skepticism, thinking that the other party must be confident, and continued to lead the way.
......
"Are you alright?" Dr. Newton glanced at the mixed-race man who was still standing in the middle of the room. This was the first time he had seen the man look embarrassed since they met.
When Connie Albert first arrived at the base, both Connie and Herman were quite resistant to him, since geniuses often don't get along.
However, they soon discovered that this guy's knowledge far surpassed their own, and they didn't know why he possessed a large amount of information about monsters. According to him, he had communicated with the monsters' secondary brains.
In short, Connie Albert earned the respect of the two doctors in a short period of time with his knowledge and refinement.
In their minds, this genius, who was not yet thirty, should always be elegant. Why did he suddenly act a little strange after being rebuked by Mr. Natsuki today?
I've been standing there for more than ten minutes.
"I...I'm fine."
"Thank you for your concern, Mr. Newton." Albert finally came to his senses, a gentle and polite smile appearing on his face as he said to Newton.
Then, he took a deep breath and walked outside.
"I'm going back to the lab now. See you this afternoon."
......
Dr. Albert left Newton and Herman's laboratory.
Walk through a long corridor filled with steel pipes.
He returned to his lab/rest room.
Upon opening the door, one can see various sophisticated scientific instruments displayed in the laboratory. On one side wall, some monster organs are also neatly arranged, indicating that he has expertise in both physics and biology.
The lights were dim, but his face behind his silver-rimmed glasses was even dimmer.
His expression gradually turned cold. He went to his desk, opened a locked drawer, and took out an envelope.
Upon opening the envelope, I found several sheets of white paper covered with densely written text.
"why?"
"Where exactly did things go wrong...?"
As he looked at what he had written on the paper, he gradually became anxious.
These papers clearly show: [The Pioneers made their first contact with Earth during the Cretaceous period, leaving a teleportation channel on the seabed...] [In 2013, the first monster arrived in San Francisco...] [In the winter of 2020, the chosen one, "Rory Beckett," lost his biological brother and left the Hunter Program...] [On January 8, 2025, Crimson Storm and Cherno Alpha were destroyed in a battle with the monsters, and all pilots died...] [On January 12, 2025, four Jaegers carrying nuclear weapons arrived at the Mariana Trench in the Pacific Ocean, destroying the breach; Eureka Raider pilots Steck Pentecost and Chuck Hansen were both killed...]
These were all pieces of information he had compiled based on his own memory.
Connie Albert is a time traveler.
Xia Shu's bracelet can only detect the fluctuations generated when transmigrators steal spacetime energy, and cannot directly lock onto transmigrators who have completely integrated into this world and become a part of it. Therefore, the captain's main task for him is to investigate.
Xia Shu had very little information about the time travelers.
Similarly, the time travelers knew nothing about Natsuki.
Albert's refined demeanor vanished instantly. He threw the papers in his hand onto the table and slammed his fists on the surface in anger, his face filled with disbelief.
"Can anyone tell me why Ultraman even exists in this world?!"
After the conversation in the lab, he became certain that the guy wasn't the kind of innocent person who could be easily manipulated by moral issues; in fact, he was somewhat extreme.
He was now wondering if the mecha he had prepared for himself could really defeat Ultraman.
Chapter 28 I Want to Pilot a Mech
Soon, Natsuki and Marshal Stark arrived at the spare mech repair warehouse behind the mech hangar.
This warehouse is much smaller than the mech hangar, and can only store a maximum of two mechs. Its overall structure is also much simpler.
Among a cluster of steel materials and instruments, a massive, silver-white mech stood on one side of the warehouse.
There are no routine maintenance personnel here; only a few engineering designers are studying how to improve the mech near its cockpit.
