"May I have your name?"
After leading Beatrice and throwing the small bomb outside, Shen Fu returned to the cockpit and looked at the girl who had unbuckled her seat belt, stood up from the chair, and put her hands behind her head consciously.
"Ni, Nicola"
English name? Shen Fu raised his eyebrows. Nicola could only be considered a very common name in foreign languages.
Then he asked the girl some questions about her identity, and only then did he know what was going on with this miserable-looking OBJECT driver.
Black market slave? During the previous battle in Alaska, Milinda had also heard that there had always been betrayal of pilots in the black market in this world. He did not expect that he would meet one.
Nicola didn’t know her name. She was originally just a wandering orphan, but one day after she was detected to meet the requirements of a driver, the nightmare began. Implanting a bomb in the heart was only the first step, and then she experienced a long journey. After ten years of inhumane training, he was constantly being resold as a commodity. Although he controlled powerful weapons, he was just a puppet controlled by others.
The reason why they haven't been brainwashed is just that the buyer can sell it again if it becomes useless in the future.
"So, you are already eighteen years old?"
Looking at the girl's figure, which looked no different from that of a thirteen or fourteen-year-old girl, Shen Fu felt inexplicably sad. The driver of OBJECT did not just have "elements", but needed long-term training to make him a perfect fit. Electrical stimulation and radiation adaptation are even used in this process. This is obviously the result of shortening the time and increasing the degree of training.
He wanted to comfort her, but when he saw the fearful look in the girl's eyes, he still didn't do anything. That was not a hurt that could be smoothed away with a few words or a few actions.
"From now on, you will no longer be called Nicola, Shen Xin, this is your new name."
Turning around, he took Beatrice's hand and walked out of the open door of the cockpit. His surname was his own. The word "Xin" was a homophonic pronunciation of "new" and meant "joy". He hoped that she would understand him in the future. expectations.
The girl was just stunned and showed no sign of being given a new name. In fact, every time she was given a new owner, she would have a new name.
Looking at this war fortress that already belongs to the country, this "three-core" machine is an OBJECT specially designed for maritime use. Although it is not impossible to modify it for land use, they obviously do not currently have the power to do so.
Just stay here for now. It is absolutely safe on the sea level of the Iron Fortress. The spare parts on it were also shipped back to the research base before the oil barrel exploded. In any case, this is the beginning of the world of heavy equipment. The biggest gain since then is the existence that can be instantly transformed into a huge combat power.
Turning around, he looked at Shen Xin who was following him, waved her hand to stand beside him, and put his hand on her shoulder. In an instant, the environment around the three of them suddenly changed and turned into a building under construction. among the bases.
"Lieutenant Colonel Shen, Dean Hao asked you to go find him when you arrive."
A researcher came over and looked at Beatrice and another timid girl with some curiosity. This was Shen Fu's first time bringing people from another world here.
"Okay, I'll go over right away and you take her to check her body."
Shen Fu nodded and pointed at Shen Xin. This research institute also has a medical research department. Well, there are also many female doctors. He watched Shen Xin follow the researcher obediently, and then took Beatrice directly. Walking towards an open-air square, I guessed that Mr. Hao must be studying the spare parts he had just shipped.
"Betty, is something wrong? Is it because the mana content here is too low?"
Suddenly, I discovered that Beatrice's eyebrows had been frowning slightly since she came here.
"No, it's not. This is a new world. The low level of magic power doesn't matter. It's just... this extremely rich death energy..."
He took a deep breath. For the elf, such an environment was really uncomfortable.
"Even on the battlefield, the death energy is not one-tenth as good as here. And this isn't even a battlefield. What...is happening in this world?"
Shen Fu was startled and almost forgot that elves are also extremely sensitive to death...
"I'm sorry... I probably shouldn't have brought you here. This world is actually in the end of the world. Ninety-nine percent of all living creatures have died and turned into existences similar to dead creatures."
He stopped, hesitant to take Beatrice back.
"Eh? Why are you apologizing? It doesn't matter. For Betty, whether it is a good memory or a bad memory, it is much better than the memory of loneliness. After the contract is signed, she needs to share more than just the elf. hapiness."
Beatrice tilted her head and looked at him, experiencing the world in detail. The magic was filled with the cries of living beings, and it also had no roots.
Isn't it just happiness? In this way, after signing the contract with Beatrice, he has been asking her to do this and that without any complaints.
The big elf lady... was very cute even without being arrogant. Shen Fu felt inexplicably happy.
"Shen Fu, are these spare parts for another object? The previous ones have just been studied a little bit, and this one is completely different. My old man can't do anything even if he doesn't eat or drink."
When Dean Hao saw Shen Fu coming over, his eyes were full of regret. It was undoubtedly the most painful thing for him to have good things in front of him but no time to study them.
"Mr. Hao, this time it's not just spare parts... but also a complete OBJECT!"
He stretched out his hand to hold Dean Hao's arm, fearing that he would be too excited to hear the news.
"...Why are you holding me up? At this time, you can't do anything even if you give me a space battleship."
He shook his head helplessly. He didn't even understand the spare parts. So what if he had an OBJECT? Although he didn't know how Shen Fu managed to get the secret protection device, even if it could be taken apart, it wouldn't be something he could research in a short time. .
Even if you have a full set of techniques, it will take a very long time to fully understand them.
"...In this case, let's see if we can figure out how to use these first. This shouldn't be difficult. At least the OBJECT will be able to form combat capabilities."
Shen Fu smiled bitterly. There was nothing he could do about it. Climbing the technology tree was far from simple. I used to think that just grabbing things could lead to rapid development. Now it seems ridiculous. The development of an entire country is comprehensive, not just one. Two pieces of black technology can pull it together.
