Immortal Soul of Steel

"Captain, is there really no problem with this?"

"Don't worry, those guys will never think that we dare to go to the Old Neon Islands."

On the viewing platform of the white wooden horse, Lin Youde drank coffee and stood with Lamia looking at the sea.

Seeing that Lamia's expression seemed a little worried, Lin Youde explained.

"Have you seen the navigation chart before?"

Lamia nodded slightly: "Yes, I've seen it."

Lin Youde said while drinking coffee.

"Now that you've seen it, you should know that the location where we returned just happened to be the southernmost point of the integration."

"Those guys who were setting up an ambush must have expected that we would bring them back from the South China Sea, so they blocked us there."

"But now that Raymond has tipped us off, we will make a big circle. We will not take them back from the South China Sea."

"Instead, we go all the way east, bypassing the unified treasure island, and heading north."

"After such a big circle, no matter whether the other party guesses or discovers it or not. If you want to rearrange the ambush and snipe us, the power you can mobilize is very limited."

"What we are afraid of now is just being wiped out by missiles and being killed by force."

"But if the threat of missiles washing away the land is removed, then the strength that can threaten us so far is very limited."

"After all, we have so many organisms that can stimulate the field of BGM, and they are not just for free."

"in addition……"

Lin Youde paused and continued.

"Lamia, you should be aware that at this time, the Old Neon Islands are still an area blocked by the Free Federation, right?"

Lamia nodded.

"Well, I know about this."

"Since the Old Neon Islands were raided by the Free Federation about ten years ago and dimensional beasts appeared on a large scale, the Old Neon Islands have been blocked by the Free Federation Navy."

"This has been going on for a long time."

Lin Youde used the new human spirit to sense it, leaned over and asked in a low voice.

"Before you came, or?"

Lamia shook her head slightly: "That's not true. Although my side was also blocked by the Free Federation at the beginning."

"But then, for some reason, the navy deployed by the Free Federation in the Old Neon Islands was completely destroyed."

Lin Youde was a little surprised and pointed at his nose: "Could it be that..."

Lamia shook her head again.

"I don't know, although the records indicate that it was suspected to be the captain."

"But based on the fact that I passed through that sea area during a certain mission later, I discovered some suspicions."

Lin Youde was a little curious: "Did you find anything?"

Lamia came close to Lin Youde and whispered: "My side, the old Neon Islands have disappeared."

Lin Youde's pupils shrank: "Disappeared? Are you sure?"

Lamia nodded heavily: "Well, I'm sure. It's not the kind of technology where optical camouflage obscures the island."

“The old Neon Islands are physically gone.”

"I once asked Mr. Raymond, and Mr. Raymond said something seemed to have happened in that sea area."

"There have been serious natural disasters such as tsunamis and earthquakes in the nearby waters."

"After that period of natural disasters, the old Neon Islands completely disappeared and can never be found again."

Lin Youde's mouth twitched slightly: "Could it be that the Old Neon Islands sank because of these natural disasters?"

This is not Lin Youde's wild imagination. In fact, Lin Youde watched a movie made by Neon Man in his previous life, called "Neon Sinking".

What happened was that the Neon Islands began to sink due to natural disasters. A disaster movie where everyone starts to flee.

This film was very well shot, vividly showing the suffering of the people at the bottom in the disaster, which left a deep impression on Lin Youde.

Now when Lamia said it, Lin Youde suddenly remembered it.

Under Lin Youde's gaze, Lamia whispered.

"It's not clear. There is no official confirmation. They just said that it disappeared mysteriously."

"But Raymond said that the possibility of sinking is not small."

"It's a pity that due to other matters, no investigation team was sent to investigate. Otherwise, we could go to the sea to investigate and find out what happened."

Lin Youde nodded slightly, touched his chin, and whispered.

"It seems like something might have existed or happened on the Old Neon Islands."

"Originally, I planned to make a long-distance raid to the Old Neon Islands to teach the Free Federation navy a lesson. By the way, I would take a detour to unify."

"But at the moment, it seems that it might be a good idea to take this opportunity to penetrate the Free Federation's naval fleet and visit the Old Neon Islands."

"There must be something special in the old Neon Islands."

Hearing what Lin Youde said, Lamia did not directly object. He just asked with some concern.

"But, what we represent now is unity, right? Is it really okay to directly go to war with the Free Federation's fleet?"

"A simple friction with the fleet over there will have different effects than a complete penetration, right?"

Lin Youde nodded: "That's true, so we have to rearrange it later."

"Before, I just planned to slap them and run away."

"But now that the situation has changed, you may have to plan carefully."

"Lamia, do you have information about the Free Federation stationed in the Old Neon Islands?"

Lamia recalled for a while and replied: "Yes, but not much. Because they are troops that have been annihilated. There is quite little remaining intelligence."

Lin Youde: "It doesn't matter, no matter how small the mosquito is, it's still meat."

Lamia: "Then..."

Gu Lincai took a look when he walked around the corner, then looked back at Lei Mengmeng, who was chatting with Lux not far away.

‘Just let it go? Is this too much trust in the director? Or are you too confident in yourself? ’

Gu Lincai, in doubt...

…

On the other side, there is a hospital in the Principality of Rixent.

A young man wearing a red leather jacket and blue jeans opened the door to the ward with a bang and exclaimed.

"dad!"

In the room, Lelouch, C.C, and Kallen turned to look at him at the same time.

At the same time, on the hospital bed, a man who looked very similar to this young man showed a pale smile.

"You're back, Kazuya."

Hearing this, Lelouch's eyes flashed with light, he walked over and stretched out his hand.

"You are Dr. Ryuzaki's son, Ryuzaki Kazuya."

"Hello, I'm Lelouch Lamperuki."

Ryuzaki Kazuya shook Lelouch's hand, looked at his father, then at Lelouch, and asked.

"Mr. Lamperuki, who is my father..."

Lelouch said simply with a smile on his face.

"Dr. Ryuzaki was poisoned by Free Federation agents and had been in a coma."

"Because Dr. Ryuzaki is unconscious and Demos is unmanned, I specially called you to come back."

"Ryuuzaki Kazuya, are you willing to replace your father, pilot Deimos, and protect the future of this country?"
