"Gululu!"
In the deep sea, the Titan Legion slowly sank, then walked in unison into an entrance resembling the huge mouth of an abyss.
On both sides, the Titan BT72, larger and more sacred and majestic than the Padrino mecha, cruised through the water. Led by Captain Kella, they raised their hands and saluted in unison.
"Lord, to prevent Chiyou from waking up prematurely, we have never conducted large-scale surveys inside. Therefore, the road is unknown, and the risks are unpredictable. Please be careful."
"Understood. Captain Kella, and everyone in the Iron Pilot Column, we'll see you at the celebration party!"
Welt responded with a calm smile in the submarine.
Then, he entered the bottomless mouth of Chiyou and soon arrived at a dark world without seawater. Only the purple crystals scattered everywhere emitted a faint light. The lighting intensity was minimal but sufficient for Welt.
"Tesla?"
Welt called Tesla, who was at the offshore base, remotely controlling the Padrino Corps.
Soon, Tesla's lively and energetic reply was heard:
"The foundation is solid, the space is vast, the gas environment is quite bad, and the surrounding collapse energy is also very high. But it should be no problem for you. Take good care of Ninti, or I will deal with you!"
"Got it, sir."
Welt replied with a smile.
The headset was quiet for a while, followed by Tesla's humming and groaning. It was unclear whether it was because of the teasing "sir" or the gentle and low chuckle.
"Sister Tesla, are you shy?"
"I'm not! I'm not! Don't talk nonsense! Stay by Yang's side and don't wander off by yourself, okay?"
"Well, I know, Sister Tesla."
Ninti replied in a soft voice, holding Welt's big hand as they walked inside Chiyou.
"It is indeed very solid, more like thick and solid earth than biological tissue. Ninti, can you feel anything?"
"Now, there is no sound, I don't know."
Ninti frowned, her expression a little tangled, as if she was trying to listen but heard nothing.
This is natural.
Chiyou hadn't woken up at all.
And before Delta and Durandal, who were powerful enough to dominate the scene, arrived, Angel wouldn't take action, so there would naturally be no movement.
Welt wasn't disappointed and nodded:
"Tesla, disperse the search. Try not to cause a big commotion, and notify me immediately if you find anything strange."
"Okay!"
"Ninti, let's move forward."
"Well, Joachim."
Ninti said naturally.
Welt paused, then walked forward hand in hand with Ninti. After a while, he said:
"Ninti, what do you know about me?"
"I remember you... small, a little shy, wanting to be a history teacher or a music teacher. By the way, you seemed to like Sister Tesla very much. And when I saw you for the last time, you cried very sadly."
Ninti blinked her watery purple eyes, thinking and talking, and gestured the height of the little Joachim.
But with her little loli body, if she gestured a height that was much shorter than her, that height was already unbearable to look at.
And that is...
"What do you mean you like me? That kind of talk is redundant!"
Tesla's high-pitched voice was a little broken in the headset.
Welt and Ninti stopped at the same time and uncomfortably took off the headsets.
Welt looked down and saw Ninti's cute expression, wrinkling her little face at the headset, and soon laughed. He said with emotion and relief:
"Yes, I cried so hard at that time."
"It's okay. I don't understand, but it's okay."
Ninti grabbed Welt's hand, looked up, and said with a blank expression but serious eyes.
Welt squatted down to face Ninti.
"You don't understand my feelings at that time, but you want to comfort me, right?"
"Yeah."
Ninti nodded and looked into Welt's eyes quietly with clear eyes.
'Don't feel guilty, don't feel guilty, don't feel guilty! I'm a professional!'
And the light here was minimal. Welt missed himself more than he distinguished. He missed Joyce. How could he doubt Ninti's motives?
Additionally, the location and timing were not right, so half a minute later, Welt just smiled and patted Ninti's head.
"Thank you, Ninti, you are a good kid. Let's continue exploring, I will protect you!"
"Okay."
Ninti nodded, followed Welt's footsteps, and continued to move forward aimlessly.
...
"Ah, An Yi~~" x 2
On the deck of the Hyperion, Delta slumped in a wheelchair, and Theresa lay in a rocking chair, both holding the same thermos cup.
Delta's was printed with a salted fish pattern, while Theresa's was printed with a homage.
Next to them was a group of Valkyries with twitching eyes.
There were outsiders present on Saint Freya's side, so it was not easy to condemn Theresa in person.
And the three people from the headquarters and the Oceania branch were just shocked by Delta's powerful infectious power again.
Delta: "Lady Theresa, you also know how to balance work and rest?"
Theresa: "Don't call me a lady. We're both S-level, and it feels like we've known each other for a long time. Just call me by my name. You're right, it is very important to balance work and rest. I'm so busy in Saint Freya every day; I don't know how long it's been since I had a good rest."
Delta: "As the saying goes, if you are not active, you have a problem with your thinking, Theresa."
Theresa: "You're so right, Delta."
The two kindred spirits looked at each other, then unscrewed their thermos cups. One drank hot wolfberry water, and the other drank hot bitter melon juice, both reminiscent of health-conscious old men.
"Bang!"
They even clinked cups.
At this time, Kiana dragged Angel, Raiden Mei, Bronya, and Fu Hua to the side and whispered in each other's ears.
"Mei, I think this person is weird!"
"I think so too. I've never seen a Valkyrie like this."
"Why did she only bring one rocking chair? I want to lie like that too!"
Kiana held her face with both hands, deeply envious.
"..."x N
Everyone took a lot of effort to take a deep breath and resisted the urge to beat this idiot on the spot.
Then Fu Hua rubbed her eyebrows and said:
"It is against the rules to talk about superiors, especially when the mission is at hand."
"Master is right!"
Angel nodded decisively and stopped the meaningless whispering.
In this way, the combat team arrived over the East Shenzou Sea Base in a weird and harmonious atmosphere.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
Amid the explosion sound that broke through the seawater and the water mist flying all over the sky, white giants leaped into the air and surrounded the Hyperion from front to back.
Cocolia, wearing a neat military uniform and black military boots, strode to the front of the East Shenzou Sea Base, one hand on her waist, and her calm and lazy voice echoed in the air.
"Everyone from the Schicksal that has come from afar, what should I bring to entertain you?"
Before she finished speaking, countless long guns and cannons extended from the huge sea base. The BTs surrounding them also displayed their giant swords and cannons one after another, creating a powerful and unmistakable deterrent.
