There is no way the Liberian girl could lay eggs!

She had already used drones to figure out the military's rotation schedule and personnel numbers, so there shouldn't be any changes...

While he was thinking, the soldier who was changing guard had already walked to Hemer's side. Through the distance of a wall, Hemer could clearly hear their conversation.

"How could it be? It disappeared in the blink of an eye? Are you kidding me?!"

"How should I know? They just disappeared right before my eyes! Quick! Find them and report the situation first!"

"Really... Team Three! Follow me this way! The rest of you, go to the other side and guard the core area. We absolutely cannot let them get in by mistake!"

Then, there was a burst of hurried footsteps.

Gone...

Hemer slowly poked his head out from the edge of the wall, looking at the two teams acting separately, and their conversation just now emerged in his mind.

they?

Besides me, are there any other people who have sneaked in?

No...we have to hurry!

.........

"Refracting light to achieve invisibility is just a minor application of magic."

While explaining the principle of invisibility to the Tin Man, Talina pinched little Muirseth's cheeks twice to show her praise.

This was naturally not her work, but the application of magic by little Muirses.

Although she has separated from the main body of Muirseth, she was designed based on Muirseth himself and naturally knows some of Muirseth's little tricks.

For example, the application of some elven spells.

Invisibility is there.

It is very easy to refract light through the water curtain to achieve the effect of invisibility and disrupt other people's vision.

But at the same time, this spell also has a huge flaw. It can only deceive the human eye, but not electronic equipment. They will be exposed with just a sweep from a drone.

But these soldiers obviously didn't think of this.

This also gave the three of them an opportunity to take advantage of.

"I didn't expect this kind of magic to exist. Hmm... elves? I've seen it elsewhere before, but I didn't expect it to be nearly extinct."

The Tin Man spoke thoughtfully, smacking his pipe.

Over the long years, he had witnessed too many extinctions. Some strange races bloomed briefly on the Terra continent, and then disappeared silently.

There were so many, so many that he could hardly remember them all.

Don’t you see that even a powerful fire demon like one of the king’s courts can only face destruction?

There is only one pure-blooded Wendigo left today, and its demise is only a matter of time.

How could there be anything eternal and indestructible in this world?

"Oh? Mr. Tin Man knows the whereabouts of the other elves?"

He does not mean that.

The Tin Man's monologue immediately perked up Talina.

"Well, not long ago, a group of elves settled near Tremont. Judging from your description, this director of the Ecology Department might be a descendant of that group of elves."

"And Sammy, there is also a group of elves living in Sammy, but unlike Director Muirseth, they don't seem to be of the same race."

"May I ask...how long ago was it?"

Sensing the doubt in the Tin Man's words, Talina asked carefully.

Muirseth has been looking for her people since she was old enough to know what was happening. If there were elves living around Tremon, there would be no way she couldn't find them.

So, there may be something wrong with what the Tin Man said.

"More than a hundred years, maybe? Or two hundred? I forgot, but it shouldn't be more than four hundred years."

Scratching his head, the Tin Man gave an answer that made Talina's eyes go dark.

Well, I almost forgot that this person's true form is a dead soul, a character who will not die as long as he doesn't commit suicide. His concept of time is different from that of ordinary people.

Perhaps the "soon" he mentioned is already an extremely exaggerated time span in the eyes of ordinary people.

But Sammy?

This is something you can remember.

After asking for the detailed address, Talina silently memorized it in her mind for future use.

She just couldn't believe that she couldn't control a mere Muir Seth!

"We're here. The Tryton Chemical Plant is right in front of us."

Suddenly, the three of them were already walking not far from their destination.

The Tin Man called out to Jeston and Talina, and took them to hide in a secluded place.

Strictly speaking, this Triton factory belonged to the same owner as the factory they visited yesterday, so the overall appearance of the factory was not much different, and the Tin Man easily found a hiding place.

The three of them came to a high building and looked down at the scene from above.

"A cordon has been set up around the area, and every location is heavily guarded. Infiltrating is almost impossible."

Looking at the arrangements, the Tin Man immediately determined the result.

Go in... Of course they can go in, but they can only fight their way in. They have the ability to do so, but... there is no need.

It is obviously not a wise move to break up now. Taking it step by step is the "right way".

Taking out the camera he carried with him, the Tin Man took pictures of the huge strange object in the center of the scene.

"Is that... different than what we saw yesterday?"

Looking at the huge circular "machine" in the center of the factory, Talina compared it with the long object they saw yesterday.

Conclusion...It is obvious that this thing is much larger than yesterday's aircraft in terms of both technological level and importance.

Not only that, its destructive power is much greater!

Talina's eyes passed over the soldiers, across the cordon, and toward the factory.

The originally flat factory area has been shattered beyond recognition, with countless fragments leaving charred dents on the ground. Continuous explosions have ignited the building materials, leaving only the basic frame structure.

However, this makes it clearer.

In the center of the factory, a huge ring-shaped mechanical object is inserted diagonally into the ground, like some kind of abstract art work.

In the pit beneath it, the original ground has become crystallized, shining brightly under the sunlight.

This indirectly illustrates the destructiveness caused by this object!

"What's the catch?"

After taking the photos, the Tin Man took out the memory card from the camera and put it in his arm.

We will be going out again later, and in order to give the military enough face, it is necessary to check our personal belongings.

"This big thing... doesn't seem to be very useful on the ground. It has a launch device similar to a thruster installed on its bottom..."

"It fell from the sky. We all know that."

The Tin Man nodded, lowered the brim of his hat, and a dark light flashed in his eyes.

"Let's go. We've achieved our goal today. If we stay, the military will probably start a full-scale search."

"Just the three of us?"

Hesitating, Talina was obviously reluctant to leave here.

It’s not that she looks down on herself, because this is the truth.

There is really no need for the Colombian military to take these three seriously.

Of course, that's assuming they don't do anything dangerous.

“What if we add a vice president?”

The Tin Man extinguished his pipe and carefully cleaned up any traces that might have been left.

"It won't be long before Vice President Jackson comes here (for an inspection), or maybe it's Liu who'll come over, or maybe it's President Liu. Then the military will start clearing out all the irrelevant people around here."

"Naturally, the three of us 'missing persons' are among them. You know, national security is an ever-changing topic."

Looking at Talina, the Tin Man explained the reason.

After figuring out the whole thing, Talina didn't insist any longer and left decisively.

They had obtained the information and the photos, which was enough to "get the job done" for them, so there was no need to get themselves involved.

Volume 9: Chapter 26: Even if it's just... setting off fireworks

When she went out, Talina once again witnessed the Tin Man's "tricks".

It was not known whether it was a coincidence or a premeditated plan, but when they went out they happened to meet the soldier who had originally received them. At this time, he was holding a communicator, ready to contact his superiors to report the situation.

Seeing the three tin men walking out of the entrance, his finger, which was hesitantly about to press the button, also left the communicator.

Not keeping an eye on the person is a dereliction of duty, and losing him is an even more serious dereliction of duty!

He didn't know what was going on inside, but he knew that the Vice President's coming was important, so his dereliction of duty was also important.

At the very least, you will be demoted, and at the worst, you will be directly liquidated!

So, he was afraid.

There were many eyes watching the three tin men's entry, so even if he wanted to hide it, it would be useless. It would be better for him to report it actively, and maybe he could get lenient treatment.

But just when he had accepted his fate, the Tin Man appeared in front of him with his men. This was undoubtedly salvation for him!

Now that the person is back, there's more room for maneuver. At least, the news of the embarrassment can be kept secret...

There was no embarrassment, no flattery, and his father, who was delighted, simply suppressed his restless heart, quickly passed the test on the few people, and released them.

Looking at the three people's backs as they walked away, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Saved...both my position and my life...

.........

The three people who had left long ago certainly had no idea of ​​the complexity in the captain's heart. They strolled along the way and made sure that there was no one following them before quickly returning to their temporary base.

Candy shop.

“It doesn’t take much time, so maybe it can free up time for other things.”

Talina looked at her watch. It was around ten o'clock in the morning, which could barely be considered morning.

"Hmm? Saria came back first?"

Looking at Saria sitting alone in the living room, Talina was a little surprised.

The place they went to was much closer than Rhine Life, so logically, they should have come back first.

and...

Looking at Saria's dark complexion, Talina had already guessed that Saria's trip was probably not going well.

"What's wrong? Didn't you go in?"

The Tin Man sat down casually, pulled out the memory card from his arm, inserted it into a USB flash drive, and then naturally took over Saria's computer and started operating it.

"I...only have a name left..."

Saria opened and closed her mouth with difficulty, her teeth clenched tightly.

Just by looking at her like this, Talina felt a strange aura emanating from her, causing her to involuntarily distance herself from Saria.

Murderous intent? Not quite, but there was a hint of murderous intent in it, as if it was suppressed by Saria.

"So, what happened?"

Compared to the casualness of the Tin Man, Talina was obviously much more "considerate" and she was keenly aware of something.

"In my life in Rhine, I only have a name left."

Rubbing her temples, Saria looked at Talina with complicated eyes.

"Ferdinand has temporarily taken over the Defense Department. In other words, he is now the head of the Defense Department, not me."
