Chapter 268 Give up the core

"Dr. Mei, there are a large number of riots in the base, and those members who have not yet had time to accept Miss Aponya's [commandments] are participating in the riots."

"What's their target?"

"The storage point for the core of the Seventh Herrscher."

"Notify others not to fight forcefully. If you can't stop them, just retreat."

"Ah? But the core of the Seventh Herrscher..."

"Just give it to them. It's just a core. It's not worth the sacrifice we have to make for it." Mei directly interrupted his subordinates and said.

"……clear."

And watching his subordinates leave his room, Mei also went to the deepest place, where there should have been a steady stream of people waiting for Aponya to give them [Commandments], but now there was nothing. one person.

"Has it started yet?"

Apponia's back was to Mei, but she quickly noticed her arrival, so she asked calmly.

"Well, is it really impossible to locate Li's position?" Mei asked. The last time she remotely supported Destobia, Aponya was able to locate her position.

"The [Commandment] has been removed, so naturally I can't determine where Li is."

Aponya shook her head. Although her expression was calm, she was just more worried than Mei.

When Li came to him specifically yesterday to impose another [Commandment] on him, he should have thought of what he was going to do.

……

Time goes back to yesterday.

Li had just forced a certain soldier to take him back to the base, but before he could stop, Li opened the car door and jumped out.

Ignoring the thoughts of the soldiers in the car behind him, Li rushed directly into the base, entered the deepest part, found Aponia, and told his purpose:

"Aponya, impose that [commandment] on me."

"...Li, have you decided?"

Aponya naturally knew what the [commandment] Li said was, and also knew why he chose to accept this [commandment]. After all, Mei had told her about this before.

"Yes, but you only need to impose this [Commandment] on me. The core of the Seventh Herrscher... I will not get close to it for the time being."

"……Why?"

"There are so many people and so many eyes..."

On the way to the core location of the Seventh Herrscher, many people will definitely notice his whereabouts. Who knows if there will be people from the Eighth Herrscher among them.

As for why he came to Apponia?

Because at such a close distance from Aponya, Li believed that even the Eighth Herrscher could not penetrate even a little bit, and there was Aponia at the entrance to the deepest place, so Mei also sent all the soldiers to After withdrawing, Riya didn't have to worry about being seen meeting Aponya.

Moreover, the most important thing is that if you want to touch the new core, Aponya's [Commandments] are necessary.

However, Li did not tell Aponya that she was going to find the Eighth Herrscher now. Instead, she took out a note that had been prepared and handed it to her, "Wait until I send you a signal before opening it."

"……'Signal'?"

Aponya took the note and didn't understand what Li meant, but Li didn't elaborate.

"You'll know later. At least until tomorrow, don't open it, okay?"

Li looked at Aponya with an extremely serious look, which also made Aponya unconsciously agree to Li's request. Even though there were many doubts in the other party's mysterious behavior,... Li was always Have their own ideas.

And it wasn't until the next day, after feeling Li take out the [Commandment] from her body, that Aponya understood what the so-called "signal" was.

She quickly sensed Li's position, but it was too late. Without the attachment of [Commandments], Aponya could no longer find Li's exact location. Therefore, she had no choice but to open the note Li gave her. It said: It was Li's idea and the reason for everything.

Li's sister was taken away by the Eighth Herrscher... No wonder he hid it from everyone.

Aponya was silent for a moment, then chose to follow the instructions written on the note by Li, walked out of the depths again, found Mei in the office, and asked her to dismiss everyone around her.

"Miss Mei, if possible, I hope you can give up the core of the Seventh Herrscher to the Eighth Herrscher in subsequent attacks."

Aponia made no sound, but her words appeared directly in Mei's mind, also in case the walls had ears.

"……reason?"

Mei responded quickly and asked in her mind.

"He went to the Eighth Herrscher and asked me for the [Precepts]..."

Aponia told Mei everything.

"..."

Mei closed her eyes and thought, but it didn't take long for her to open her eyes again and calmly said: "Okay."

"Thanks……"

Aponia also retracted the idea of ​​using [Commandments] to control Mei, and thanked her sincerely.

"At this point, Li's method is indeed the best remedy at present. Moreover, with luck, this method can also directly defeat the Eighth Herrscher." As if she didn't realize that Aponya had almost used it on her just now. Ability, Mei was still analyzing calmly.

……

The time has come now.

"It's useless to think about it now. All we can do is try our best to cooperate with him and try to minimize the loss." Mei could barely feel the worry in Apponia's heart, so she comforted him casually, "He will be fine. Compared to others, Li's life is much harder."

I don’t know why, but Mei felt very confident when she said this. Maybe it was because Li was “resurrected from the dead” when she collapsed for the seventh time?

Mei didn't believe that the hidden Eighth Herrscher could do what the destructive Seventh Herrscher couldn't.

"Um……"

At this time, one of his subordinates sent a message to Mei:

[Dr. Mei, the core of the Seventh Herrscher has been taken away. 】

Mei glanced at Apponia, who had turned around at some point, and nodded to her, indicating that the plan was going smoothly.

[Dr. Spacy's plan has also begun. Mr. Su has already started preparing to enter the 27th Observation Hub and start looking for the location of the Eighth Herrscher's body. 】

This is the second message.

It seems... it's time to launch a counterattack against the Eighth Herrscher.

But it wasn’t over yet. In less than two seconds, a third message was sent:

[Miss Sakura's sister has also been released. She has just returned home and is being brought to the base by Miss Sakura. 】

Now that the last obstacle was gone, the Eighth Herrscher actually kept his word, which surprised Mei a little.

"Sakura should ask for your help to impose a [commandment] on her sister."

Mei said to Aponya, it seems that the last attack also made Sakura understand the importance of Aponya's [Commandments]. On her own, she cannot protect her sister from the Eighth Herrscher.
