I am the former civilized hero.

"But in fact you are. Okay, come with me to change the bandage. The bandage is stained red." The white-haired girl stroked the bloody muscles and dragged him away without saying a word. After walking a few steps, she hurried back to bow and apologize to Aponiya and Eden, and then caught up with him.

"Let me go. This kind of injury is no pressure for me."

"Alright, alright, stop being so wilful like a child. If you are sick, you need to be treated."

"Who are you calling a kid?!"

As the cursing faded away, Eden and Aponiya smiled at each other, knowing that if Qianjie really wanted to resist, Lyudkina would not be able to suppress him.

"Qianjie is still so tough on the outside, but his body is very honest."

"There's no way. He longs for a warm home more than anyone else. He seems irritable, but he's actually very gentle." As an old friend, Abonya replied lightly, her gentle eyes full of relief.

This kind of look was enough to make Qianjie go crazy, but this was what she really thought.

"Loss and gain always complement each other and make people forget the pain of the past. I heard an interesting story recently that you might be interested in." Aponiya lowered her voice and whispered in Eden's ear.

The singer initially had a faint smile on her face, but as she listened, her eyes lit up.

"Judging from the style, this should be Alicia's suggestion?"

"Well, I guess she can't help it and will tell you sooner or later. So, are you interested in getting involved?"

Eden hesitated for a moment, then his faint smile turned into an elegant one.

"let me consider it."

Chapter 423: Hyperion

The New York headquarters had been exposed to long-term irradiation, and all the Honkai energy cores had been exhausted. The Abyss City was still under construction, and this war had disrupted the construction schedule.

The earth remained strong, but the Fire Moth felt homeless. Fortunately, the second aerial battleship was built in time, providing it with a relatively stable place to stay.

As for the Minerva, it had been badly damaged and many of its metals had entered half-life. Although there was no visible damage on the outside, it was actually riddled with holes.

"I plan to take it to Haiyuan City to use as a turret. That Houkai Energy Array Cannon should still be able to fire a few more rounds."

Ryan was looking at the huge ship being towed away on the sea, and Mei walked quietly to the side. Everyone still had feelings for this warship that was snatched from the Fire Council.

"No wonder you don't cherish it at all. It turns out you have prepared a spare tire a long time ago." Ryan patted the gray metal. The electric current spread along the metal, and the overall framework of the second ship was reflected in his mind.

It is even larger, with a length of more than 400 meters and a width of more than 280 meters. Its weight is insignificant. With the help of the anti-gravity engine, it can float in the air like a feather.

The shape has also changed slightly. The Minerva is roughly like a spindle, but this one is more like a rectangular block. The bridge protrudes upward, which provides a better view. There are also two pairs of flying wings on both sides of the hull.

There are twenty-four 240MM electromagnetic rail guns stacked on the deck, and there are three turrets at the front, with nine 500MM Honkai energy array guns arranged in an overlapping manner.

Nine launch rails with electromagnetic catapults link hangars, which hold dozens of heavy drones and can also release fusion fighters.

Bigger is more beautiful, more is cooler, what a great multi-turret cult.

"The construction work started last year, and the relevant data reports should have been sent to you for approval long ago." Mei Lengleng thought that this boss really didn't care about anything. "Why do you think Wei Erwei's presence is so low? She is busy."

What a black-hearted foreman! Yes, except for staying in the workshop and the Golden Courtyard, Vivi hardly ever went out. Even the magician was well fed with sufficient funds.

"Really? Oh, I seem to have some impression. I didn't expect you to play such a big game." Ryan nodded shamelessly, stroking his chin, "I don't care about these trivial matters. This battleship is still timely. We almost didn't even have a place to stay."

With a larger ship and more powerful power, it can still struggle hard against the Ruler of Constraint.

"I'm not using this ship as a base, but as a preparation for the end. This warship is equipped with a quantum computer and the most advanced command system. There is even a laboratory in the central area, and it also has space combat capabilities..."

Mei started introducing it right away, even the most concise sentences became a lot more elaborate, saying that this was not a battleship at all, but a flying fortress, the crystallization of human civilization and Vivi's ingenuity and so on.

Ryan was not a believer in the Multi-Turret Cult, and had no interest in how much the Honkai shield would increase or how much the comfort of life would increase. The more he listened, the more strange it seemed to him.

Skynet, underground fortress, aerial battleship, how many huge projects has Mei led? I really want to remind her that "stunning things will ruin the country."

But he didn't need to blame her. After all, he was a hands-off boss, so how could he blame his most reliable subordinate? Not to mention that May's pressure was also quite amazing. Although Mebius didn't say it, he was also very afraid of her. Besides, she was already taken, so he could just sit there as a "neutral" person and discuss the matter at hand.

"Hey, are you listening?" May seemed to notice that Ryan was daydreaming.

"I'm listening. Do you mean that the bow space is intended to accommodate the Moonlight Throne system?"

"Yes, I said it before. This ship is prepared to cross the end. I even added interstellar navigation capabilities. If we really can't win..."

"Then let's start." Ryan snapped his fingers. There was no doubt that the aerospace information was obtained from Qianjie, which was equivalent to integrating the Ark Project into it.

This woman is really scheming and always has a plan for recovery.

"It's more decent to say strategic shift," Mei corrected, and then she didn't want to talk nonsense with Ryan anymore, "You are the general manager, so go back and think carefully about such a simple thing as naming."

Oh, the ship doesn’t have a name yet, so there’s no need to think about that.

Ryan had an idea when he was 'visiting', and said directly: "Let's name it 'Hyperion', for good luck."

Mei didn't say anything for a long time, not knowing what was so auspicious about the name of this ship. Three naval warships named Hyperion automatically appeared in his mind, all of which sank to the bottom of the sea. It didn't sound very auspicious.

But she knew Ryan was mysterious sometimes, so there must be a reason why he said that.

"Okay, I'll have Prometheus enter it into the database right away. You can look around and see if you know anything about your own ship. Don't be so ignorant that you don't even know where to attack from."

Can't I just blast through the armor and get out directly? Why go through so much trouble?

Ryan complained in his heart, but he knew that doing so would result in a sky-high repair bill, so he simply pointed at Kevin who was doing nothing next to him.

"Then lend me your boyfriend."

"It's up to you, but don't use Kevin as a shield." Mei warned and left with the sound of high heels, leaving Kevin with a constipated expression. Seeing his reluctant look, Ryan was furious.

"I am your savior after all. You can't put love before friendship to this extent. Or do you dare to harass Mei while she is working?"

"Bah, you are much happier than me. Do you know how much hatred you will attract?!" Kevin pretended to be jealous, but Ryan didn't feel anything. He just looked at the endless sea of ​​clouds as lonely as snow.

"You don't understand, this is a good boat, but if it's not handled properly it will become a 'NICE BOAT'."

"What's the meaning??"

"Can the head of the quintile understand?"

Kevin thought about it seriously for a moment, then walked over and patted Ryan's shoulder with sympathy. Happiness and pain were just a fine line apart, so of course he understood.

"Don't worry, it won't be that serious, just some minor problems."

"Of course, I never do anything without confidence. Sooner or later, they will have to obey me." With his white windbreaker fluttering, Ryan exuded the oppressive feeling of a boss. Just as he started to release his aura, he was hit hard on the back.

"Fuck, I just said a few words of comfort, but you still got so angry!"

Ten thousand meters in the air, the two men were fighting on the deck of the Hyperion, and they stopped when they entered the ship. Now, one of them is the commander-in-chief and the other is the elite captain, and it is impossible for them to be as free as in school.

If I calculate my age more carefully, I am almost 25 or 26 years old, which is the age for a corporate slave.

The Golden Courtyard is still the most relaxing place, but it’s a pity that I can’t go back for the time being.

Ryan sighed a little. He also wanted to go back to the underground villa to fish, but he had a duty to fulfill. At such a critical moment, he couldn't just go into seclusion.

Walking from the bow to the middle of the ship, nodding in return countless times, he found that Mei had really invested a lot of money. The Hyperion was large enough to carry all the fusion warriors, and then form a mobile force to run everywhere. It also had complete living facilities, which were enough to support long-term travel.

This is very important. After the "Wandering Humans" plan is completed, there is no need to stay in one place. Only by running can we take the initiative.

"How's Mei's downsizing going now?" Ryan asked suddenly. Kevin, who was looking at the cafeteria and thinking about what to eat for dinner, didn't react for a moment and was elbowed in the ribs, causing him to grimace.

"Oh, why don't you just ask Mei about this? I'm not your secretary." Kevin touched his ribs and muttered, "Besides, you always look like you have everything under control and are full of confidence. Do you still need to ask about this?"

"Since we are going to do it to the end, it is better to be confident than to be full of worries. Determination can't accomplish too many things, but without determination, nothing can be done." Ryan habitually preached, and squinted his eyes: "If you keep being sarcastic, do you believe I will transfer you over and make you follow me around every day?"

"You are seeking revenge, right? Fine, let me tell you." Kevin's learning ability was not good, but his memory was still good. He immediately said, "Symphony is cancelled, Desdobia is assigned to Su, Suzheng and Crimson are merged, Hen is the captain, Coleman is the vice-captain, and Owl has passed the probation period, so he is temporarily assigned to me."

The 13th Fire-Chasing Squadron has now become the 11th Squadron. Of course, the organization of each team has shrunk, but fortunately the backbone members have not been shaken. As long as Andevich and Joshua are not dead, they can slowly recover.

The technology of the Fire Moth is very advanced now, so even if they become disabled, it will not affect their combat effectiveness too much.

The backbone is intact, which is good enough.

Ryan breathed a sigh of relief. The Ruler of Constraint had never been a problem. The problem was how much damage she could cause to the Fire Moth. As in the original world line, with only the Thirteen Heroes left, the number of cards in her hand would be greatly reduced.

You have to know that the Thirteen Heroes are not necessarily the strongest. In terms of combat power alone, Andvich, the 'Ice Fist', can crush Mebius or Velvet, and there are also people like Vinar who have average combat power but outstanding command ability.

He stopped, closed his eyes, and made a list in his mind.

The first [Pioneering] team, captain Ryan, lieutenant Ying.

The second [True Self] team, captain is Alicia and lieutenant is Himiko.

The third [Discipline] team, captain Aponia, lieutenant Joshua.

The fourth [Ice] team, captain Andevich, adjutant Vinal.

The fifth [Infinite] team, captain is Mebius, and lieutenant is Velvet.

The Sixth [Savior] Team, Captain Kevin, Lieutenant Kosmo, and Owl.

The seventh [Annihilation] team, captain is Qianjie, and the lieutenant is Liu Deqina.

The eighth [Scarlet] team, captain Hen, lieutenant Coleman.

The ninth [Floating Life] team, captain Hua, lieutenant Freya.

The tenth [Golden] team, captain Eden, lieutenant Padochliflis.

The eleventh [Tianhui] team, captain Su, adjutant Daisy Dobia.

In addition, there are 871 ordinary fusion warriors.

If nothing unexpected happens, he will need to use this team to deal with the End. It can't be said that they are strong in both men and horses, but they still have some trump cards, and he feels relieved.

"Ryan, what are you daydreaming about?" Kevin walked out several steps before turning back.

"I was thinking about crossing the end. The Ruler of Constraint is a hurdle. If you spend too much strength on Him, you'll be finished in the next step. But He is also a peak. After crossing this, there should be no authority more terrifying than Constraint."

This consumption is not big? Mei is almost worried to death.

Kevin didn't quite understand Ryan's train of thought, but luckily he wasn't that paramecium anymore, so he pretended to think: "Isn't it too far to think about the end now? The Sixth and Twelfth Herrschers are here, and there is no evidence that the Fourteenth Herrscher will not come."

His words represent the common doubts within the Fire Moth, and are also what everyone fears the most. The war is endless, and even if one person dies each time, they will be exhausted sooner or later.

Passive defense is not a solution, but I can't find a target to actively attack. The information about the Cocoon of the End has spread, and even Mei can only scratch her head.

Because He does not exist in the real world, like a ghost, isolated from all means of attack, we can only wait for Him to come down on his own initiative, which brings up the final question.

"We have to push the progress to the end, so that we can face Him directly, but it is difficult to make this decision." Ryan rarely discussed serious matters with Kevin.

"Hmm? How do I push it?"

Ryan adjusted his glasses and lowered his voice.

"If things go as expected, the end will come when all known Herrschers are killed."
