The Osiris has passed the defense line of the HER North American army and has entered the no-man's land, but no one has lowered their guard now, because no one can guarantee that the HET will suddenly turn around and launch an attack.
"Is there any action on HER's defense?"
"No, Sergeant Anton, they are still gathering outside Kansas City."
"Where is the Wuhou class? Didn't you follow?"
"No, they seem to have stopped at the defense line."
Sergeant Anton breathed a sigh of relief. He looked at the several HER fighter jets captured on the outside monitor. Ever since the Osiris passed the defense line, these fighter jets had been following the Osiris at a safe distance, but they were still considered Not a threat.
"Can the crew be disarmed?" Correspondent Jessica asked.
"Not yet. We need to speed up and bypass HER's base camp in Denver City to go to Seattle. At least we must continue to be vigilant before passing near Denver City. By the way, where is Lin Ao?"
"He is undergoing a physical examination by Dr. Hohenheim."
Anton scratched his head: "I see... He is indeed tired. After his physical examination is over, let him wait for me in the hangar. I will go to the ward to see Captain Shepard first."
Jessica asked with concern: "Is the captain okay? He was fine just now, but suddenly he returned to the ward."
Anton sighed: "No, the captain's condition is getting worse and worse. He may have to lie in bed to rest in the future."
…
Lin Ao had just finished the CT examination. He took off the toilet paper blocked in both nostrils and it seemed that the nosebleeds had stopped.
Dr. Hohenheim asked him while looking at his physical examination data: "No more nosebleeds?"
"It stopped bleeding. I didn't know it happened anymore. I suddenly had nosebleeds during the Sasaki duel just now. When I got back on the boat, it started to bleed from both nostrils at the same time. Is it because my head is too congested?"
"Why do you think so?"
"AI's, he and I were too nervous at the time, and a lot of blood rushed to the top of my head."
Hohenheim scratched his head: "emmmm, generally the cause of nosebleeds is a problem with the nose or an increase in blood pressure in the body. Stress does raise blood pressure, but it is unheard of to have nosebleeds due to stress causing high blood pressure... I suspect you have something. Hidden disease.”
"ah??"
Lin Ao was afraid of hearing this and almost slipped off his chair.
"What disease! Don't scare me!"
"I just wonder if you have any other symptoms besides nosebleeds."
Lin Ao thought for a while: "Well...in the second half of the duel, I felt very dizzy because my blood pressure increased."
"Dizziness? You defeated Sasaki Musashi in a dizzy state?"
"Yes, but the dizzy state is very strange. I feel that Sasaki Musashi's movements seem to have slowed down, and my own body has also become sluggish, but AI does not have such a thing, so it should be just my subjective feeling. You Do you know what’s going on?”
"It stumps me. I have many doctorate titles, but not a doctor of medicine. I have learned the knowledge of giving you a physical examination. I'll ask your ship's doctor later."
Lin Ao saw that Dr. Hohenheim couldn't figure out what was wrong with him, so he stood up and asked, "Is there anything else you want to check, doctor?"
"No, Sergeant Anton asked you to go to the hangar, you'd better go quickly."
Lin Ao was not in a hurry. He walked slowly towards the hangar. He was warmly welcomed by the crew along the way. Everyone called him a hero. Lin Ao was so praised that Lin Ao felt a little carried away and his steps became frivolous. Reporter Sima Qian stopped him and asked for an interview. Lin Ao declined with a smile. This was the first time Sima Qian had seen him so confident.
No matter how proud you are, you have to put your tail away and stand upright when you see Sergeant Anton. To his surprise, apart from Anton and Edward, there was also Natasha.
"Let me introduce to you, this is Ten Swords Unit No. 5..."
"It's Katyusha."
"Oh...it's Katyusha's pilot Natasha. She will also be a member of our Z team from now on."
"Aha?!"
Edward was startled: "How come Her Royal Highness the Princess of New Muscovy has to be a crew member of this ship?! Diplomacy...international issues...how do you explain it to the outside world?"
Anton seemed to be in a dilemma. He scratched his head and looked at Natasha: "This... I don't know this. Natasha requested it from Captain Shepard, and the captain agreed."
Edward put his hands on his hips and seemed to be in a dilemma for a while, and then suddenly said: "My Princess, although I don't know why you do this, but first of all, we will not be as condescending to you as your fellow citizens! I am better than you." Team morning, it’s your senior!”
Natasha glared at him: "Captain, this sissy wears pigtails in the army!"
"His pigtails... are not long enough to affect wearing a helmet. Besides, there are no seniors or juniors in our team. You are all members, and I am the captain!"
"Captain, can you control this princess?"
"Um...ahem! Natasha, since you joined the team voluntarily, you must obey my orders from now on!"
Natasha did not answer, but saluted Anton.
"Huh..." Seeing Natasha's submission, Anton felt more at ease. He raised his voice and ordered: "Our Z team is more like a team now, so we need to work hard to train! Lin Ao, you have worked hard today. , let’s go rest first. Natasha and Edward, let’s start training!”
"Okay!"
Lin Ao cheered happily.
…
"Why don't you let us go west!"
Boris, the Red Knight's henchman, shouted to Sasaki Musashi's secretary.
The secretary smiled apologetically and said: "I'm sorry, this is General Sasaki's last order before his death. I don't know the reason. But until the next North American army commander is appointed by the emperor, no one has the authority to change this order, except His Majesty the Emperor."
Boris angrily grabbed the secretary's collar and lifted him up, cursing: "Asshole! It's the emperor's order that we go to Seattle to destroy the North American Rescue Alliance factory. Which one is more powerful, the emperor or your dead general?"
"I'm sorry, I'm just a businessman. Please be patient. As compensation, I will invite you to a banquet in accordance with the general's last wish."
"Bah! Who wants to eat food produced in North America! Your North American troops are enjoying the pleasures here and are getting moldy!"
"Don't be unreasonable, Boris!"
The Red Knight appeared to stop the farce. He saw that the guards behind the secretary had already put their hands on the trigger. If Boris continued to mess around, things would be difficult to deal with.
The red knight saluted: "Please be accommodating. We are also marching westward under the emperor's order. Although you are also following General Sasaki's orders, the general had a good relationship with me during his lifetime. I think his purpose of leaving the Wuhou class was also It’s just to catch up with me, it’s not worth getting angry at.”
The secretary straightened his clothes and nodded: "The general does mention you often, but this alone is not enough to convince me. I also hope that you can get His Majesty the Emperor's approval as soon as possible."
"His Majesty the Emperor's approval is already there!"
Zhuge Daozi arrived belatedly, holding a tablet in his hand with a photo of the passage order signed by Frederick the Great. The secretary accepted it as soon as he saw it was good, and without checking the authenticity of the pass, he said that he would release the Wuhou-level pass to the school.
"I still hope that everyone at the Wuhou level will be honored to attend the banquet I prepared, as well as attend the general's memorial service and subsequent banquets."
"No, we also have a mission. When I complete the mission of His Majesty the Emperor, I will personally pay homage to General Sasaki's tomb!" Zhuge Daozi.
Seeing that the secretary finally left, the red knight patted Zhuge Daozi on the shoulder: "Unexpectedly, Sasaki died and gave us a kick. Do you know why?"
Zhuge Daozi sneered: "Maybe it's because he hates me."
