Putting down the tablet in her hand, Mira gently squeezed her numb shoulders.
This is the first time that Mira has worked continuously for 20 hours without her own intention.
Her eyes were already dry and uncomfortable, and her shoulders were sore and numb, but there was a sense of satisfaction flowing in Mira's heart.
A video was playing on the tablet he put down.
That was a battle that took place in the port dozens of kilometers away more than twenty hours ago.
One of the parties in the battle was the crossbow driven by Lei Mingkai.
There is no doubt about it.
This is first-hand information from the front lines.
It is also the combat information provided by White Cat Zero for Mira.
It knew that the girl in front of it was working hard to design a new body for Lei Mingkai. But because it didn't know Lei Mingkai's driving preferences and combat style, it fell into a stalemate with the hundred-person technical team.
Recalling the first time Mira came into contact with this hundred-person technical team, although the technicians did not show any strangeness, White Cat Zero felt that they were exploring and contemptuous of Mira.
This was especially reflected in the disputes that occurred during the preliminary research to set the tone for the new machine designed by Lei Mingkai.
Some people suggested that the early design should be based on the idea of giving priority to mobility and second to firepower.
Some people suggested that the early design should be based on the idea of firepower first, armor second, and mobility last.
etc.
Various plans kept popping up from the mouths of these technicians, making Mira lose her sense for a moment.
But the white cat Zero who stayed aside could see clearly.
This is probably also the result of the deliberate indulgence of the old man named Mallory.
White Cat Zero didn't believe that this cunning old man sent this team of 100 people here without explaining anything.
"I don't mind if you embarrass Kai. But it would be too ugly to embarrass a little girl! Human hearts are really dirty."
Seeing Mira looking a little at a loss during this dispute, White Cat Zero finally couldn't stand it any longer.
Then, the air suddenly became colder.
Like an icy hurricane blowing from the North Pole, this increasingly heated dispute was suppressed in an instant.
"Mira, let's go."
As the voice of the White Cat Zero rang quietly in Mira's ears, the figure of the White Cat also disappeared outside the door, leaving behind Mira who politely said goodbye to the technical team and then caught up.
Immediately afterwards, the previous scene happened.
Mira, who took over the battle record from the White Cat Zero, which only existed on Dannu's Son, finally made a rough plan for the new machine designed for Lei Mingkai after fighting alone for twenty hours.
High maneuverability and capable of autonomous flight.
Diverse means of close attack.
There are not many long-range weapons, but they can ensure the intensity of firepower.
These three points serve as the keynote of the general plan, and they are the conclusions Mira came to after watching Lei Mingkai fight with a powerful crossbow.
"It's done well. Although there are still some flaws, it's already the driving style of that guy Kai."
The white cat Zero, who was lying on the refrigerator, lowered his head, glanced at the rough plan on the tablet, and nodded slightly appreciatively.
As Lei Mingkai's partner, White Cat Zero naturally knows Lei Mingkai's driving style and fighting habits.
There is indeed something about Mira that is worthy of Lei Mingkai's investment.
Just from a battle video, you can see Lei Mingkai's fighting style and fighting habits, which already makes Mira worthy of staying by Lei Mingkai's side.
"Sir Zero, are we going to come up with this plan like this?"
Stopping what she was doing, Mira asked with some fear.
Mira also saw the dispute between the technical team just now and was anxious in her heart.
If Mira released this preliminary plan under such circumstances, it would probably trigger a riot.
However,
White Cat Zero has another view.
"Why not? Mira, what is this machine designed for? And why did you come up with the idea of creating this machine?"
When White Cat Zero asked this question, Mira was suddenly stunned.
Her memory returned to that freezing night wrapped in ice and snow.
That night, Mira's body was cold and she was wrapped in endless pain.
Her ears were filled with the roaring sound of machine guns and the explosion flames coming from behind.
At that moment,
At that moment when Mira thought she was going to die,
An angel appeared.
The shining wings of light,
A body that is pure white and flawless, but has luxurious golden patterns,
at this point,
It became an unforgettable scene in Mira's life.
From then on, Mira subconsciously searched for all the knowledge that could be related to this angel in her mind, until when Lei Mingkai and White Cat Zero fought, Lancelot might no longer be able to keep up with the increasingly fierce battle.
Mira accidentally revealed her idea of designing a new machine for Lei Mingkai.
Deep memories become clearer and clearer.
Unknowingly, the fear in Mira's heart gradually subsided.
"It seems that you have already come up with the answer. Mira. Since you have chosen this path, then go on! Perhaps, this is the only place where you can help Kai."
The white cat Zero looked at Mira's increasingly bright eyes and nodded slightly.
So, Mira, accompanied by the white cat Zero, once again came to the conference room assigned to the technical team, and under everyone's astonished eyes, she slapped the preliminary plan on everyone's faces.
"This is the next step for us to design a complete airframe design. This is a preliminary conclusion drawn after collecting relevant data from the pilots."
Mira pointed at the sets of data on the projection screen and said firmly: "There is no doubt that the data you are seeing now is to combine a powerful aircraft with terrifying high maneuverability.
Prepared for the birth of this exclusive body into this world.”
As soon as Mira finished speaking, the technical team immediately exploded.
Countless questions were also frantically thrown at Mira at this moment.
Facing this wave of rebuttals and questions, Mira took a deep breath and shouted with all her strength:
"Shut up! This aircraft development plan has been mine alone from the beginning! I am very grateful for your coming! However, I hope you can understand one thing! This aircraft is not designed for the forces behind you.
It is an exclusive machine designed for one person, my brother. Apart from my brother, I don’t want anyone else to get involved with this machine!”
Mira's voice gradually became sharp.
This is a state that Mira has never been in before.
Even before and after he was snatched away and became an experimental subject, he had never experienced such a state before.
"Here, let me start with something ugly. The body I design must be perfect! Its appearance will inevitably be the most perfect AS in the world. Therefore, I hope you can meet my requirements, otherwise,
Please get out of here!"
Mira's eyes were extremely sharp and she looked around.
"So, does anyone here want to withdraw from this plan? Believe me, even if you all leave, I can complete this perfect machine alone!"
After saying that, Mira quietly looked at everyone in the technical team present.
At this moment, it is silent.
There was also a pressure of silence permeating the conference room.
"Bah bang bang!"
Vaguely, a round of applause sounded quietly.
As if it was an order, when the applause sounded, everyone present subconsciously applauded for Mira's speech just now.
Although in their eyes, Mira is a young rookie, Mira has already shown her attitude and determination.
In any case, in the hearts of everyone in the technical team, Mira has completed the target that Mallory secretly told her.
"Mira-sama, do you know the code name of this aircraft?"
The applause gradually stopped, and a middle-aged man who looked like the leader of the technical team bowed slightly to Mira and asked.
Mira smiled softly and proudly said a code name.
"The plan ID is arx-8. The body code is to be determined!"
The moonlight above the nine heavens was gently scattered on the quiet sea. Under the action of the tidal force, the undulating waves tore the beautiful moonlight veil into pieces.
Amidst the sound of the waves, there is silence above Danu floating on the sea surface in the dark night.
On the deck, a figure was standing, facing the slightly cold sea breeze, silently staring at the full moon in the sky.
Is this sentimental?
No.
Not really.
Lei Mingkai secretly laughed at himself in his heart.
Although the planet under our feet is also called Earth, there are subtle differences in some details.
For example, the full moon in the sky is different from the full moon in Lelouch's world. But if Lei Mingkai could tell what the difference was, he couldn't tell why.
After all, this is also Lei Mingkai's unilateral feeling.
"Knight, are you looking at the moon?"
Just as Lei Mingkai was thinking about the difference between the two worlds, Teresa's voice suddenly came from behind him.
Lei Mingkai turned around and looked over, but was surprised to find that Richard was not around Theresa.
So, Lei Mingkai smiled softly.
"Captain, this is not the time for combat. If you come to the deck to blow off the wind so late, I'm afraid you will be lectured by the deputy captain!"
"You! Knight, I am not a child now! Richard can't control my actions!"
Theresa was startled, but after seeing the faint smile on the corner of Lei Mingkai's mouth, she immediately refuted what Lei Mingkai said.
"Yes! Yes. Captain, but he is the youngest captain in the world! Of course he is an adult."
Lei Mingkai spread his hands and said half teasingly and half seriously.
"You! Knight! Did anyone tell you that you should never speak in this tone when praising a lady?" Theresa raised her eyebrows, showed a smile, and continued to refute what Remingkai said.
"Probably? Let me think about it. Hmm. I remember my etiquette teacher once taught me how to deal with this kind of situation."
After Lei Mingkai seemed to think seriously, he suddenly took a step forward. When Teresa's eyes became surprised, he put his right hand on his chest, bent down and apologized:
"Beautiful Miss Teresa Testarossa, please forgive me for my unintentional mistake."
"Knight. It seems that you really think of yourself as a knight!" Theresa stepped back without any trace, looking at Lei Mingkai with a half-smile.
"Really? Maybe, I was originally a knight."
Lei Mingkai didn't pay attention to Theresa's retreat. After straightening up, he turned around and continued to look at the sea that was filled with moonlight.
For some reason, Lei Mingkai's attitude of neither denying nor admitting made Teresa subconsciously ask a question.
"Sounds a lot like the same thing! So, may I ask, Lord Knight, do you have a monarch to whom you are loyal?"
As soon as this question came out, Teresa keenly caught the change in Lei Mingkai's expression.
Although it is very subtle, Theresa is very sure that this is the most true portrayal of Lei Mingkai's heart.
"Captain, which one do you want to hear? The real answer? Or the false answer?"
Subtly, Lei Mingkai did not admit it immediately.
Theresa smiled confidently.
She had already seen the answer from Lei Mingkai's expression just now.
"Really. Knight. You must know that among the eight virtues of a knight, honesty ranks first."
"Honest?"
Lei Mingkai smiled softly, then turned around again and said seriously to Teresa:
"Now that the captain has said this, I can't bear to deceive you, captain. So, now I guarantee in the name of the Royal Family of Britannia that the next words are true and reliable."
"Royal of Bubritania?!" Teresa was stunned, but she could not find any information related to this name in this world from her memory.
"Yes! Captain Teresa Testarossa. Now, standing in front of you is the Royal Guards Knight Commander Lei of the Queen of Britannia, Euphemia.
Mingkai."
The posture assumed by Lei Mingkai at this moment was the imperial etiquette taught by the senior etiquette teacher of the Royal Knights Academy.
At this moment, Lei Mingkai fully displayed his demeanor as the Knight Commander of the Imperial Queen's personal guard.
However
As the only audience member, Teresa subconsciously regarded Lei Mingkai's performance as acting.
“(⊙o⊙)…”
Theresa was silent for a moment, and then couldn't help but applaud.
"I didn't expect your acting skills to be so good, Knight. If you go to film, I'm afraid there will be one more actor in the world."
Lei Mingkai didn't care that his performance was regarded as acting by Teresa.
Perhaps for Lei Mingkai, this is just a seed left behind at some point in the future.
Therefore, Lei Mingkai did not expect the seed to sprout and grow immediately.
"Thank you for the compliment, Captain!"
After Lei Mingkai accepted Teresa's praise calmly, he suddenly added.
"I wonder if this performance can remove some of the haze in the captain's heart?"
As soon as these words came out, Theresa's applause stopped.
After a while, facing the icy cold wind, Theresa sighed faintly:
"I don't know. Perhaps I can make a final decision from the moment the information you provided, knight, is confirmed."
mr.ag.
One of the leaders of Amalgam.
His true identity is Leonard Testarossa, the brother of captain Teresa Testarossa, son of Dannu.
