BXBX NOVEL Chapter 628 - Theyre Approaching
"Ah-mm, all right. Thank you." Erina looked at that aurora bracelet in admiration. She didn\'t know what kind of ornament it was, but she could tell it to have a very high value.
"Haha, have we sent some reconnaissance units to collect environmental data of this foggy area?" The American leader walked into the central command room with an enthusiastic laugh.
"Hm, it\'s you, Admiral Adam Byrne. Have you released the captured underworld hound for spying purposes?" Mitsuzuka pursed his lips. He didn\'t think Adam would make an arbitrary decision.
"You don\'t need to worry, General Mitsuzuka. This is the usual method the Russian military uses to spy on other countries. We just need to attach a chip and some secret equipment to the little beast, and squalla, we\'ll be able to find the origin of the beast. . That little thing will do the spying for us." Adam glanced at the Russian leader.
"Hou~ How did you know that we use animals to spy on other countries? Based on records, we use animals to monitor underwater conditions, including looking for materials from the former world war." The Russian leader folded his arms with a frown on his face.
"Hehe, it certainly is not recorded because it\'s your covert operation. Don\'t try to fool me because dolphins and many other types of animals have been caught to prove the truth, Admiral Solovyov." Adam waved his hand in front of his face with a cynical expression.
"Hm? You really took that weird dog out for spies?" Tang Zhou came over with curiosity. He was about to do a spy operation, but everyone else was already doing the same.
"Well, let\'s see what that little thing does out there and what we can find. We installed a special camera and launched a satellite here. Hey, we might see a lot of ghosts, so mentally prepare yourself, haha!" Adam laughed heartily and connected his tablet to the nearby monitor.
The monitor display only showed a subject streaking through the thick fog. Several objects entered the view, but everything was moving too fast.
While the leaders were dealing with their spy operations, several young men and women approached Elysia\'s group.
"Hello, pleased to meet you, Miss Elysia and Miss Erina. My name is Lukas White, a tier five esper of America\'s elite squad." A handsome young man greeted with a prince-charming smile.
"Hum, nice to meet you too. So, what are you and your fellow elite troops gathering around us for?" Elysia answered the greeting with basic pleasantries. Vanessa then got off her shoulders and nestled comfortably in her arms.
"Haha, there\'s no particular reason. We of the younger generation just wanted to say hello. We actually don\'t know why you, your friend, your cat, and Miss Erina are here, even though you\'re not all part of the Japanese military at all. Is there a reason? especially by your side?" Lukas pointed his palm at the three girls in front of him.
"Actually, there\'s no special reason. We\'re just cooperating upon something, and Miss Erina is only allowed to come along by her family. There\'s nothing wrong here." Elysia glanced at Erina and represented to answer.
"I see. I can see you have a special relationship with Miss Erina. Did you know about the secret behind her special ability that many people fear? She was expelled from military education when she was young due to an incident. She can\'t control her superpower and be branded a dangerous subject but protected. Ah, it\'s nice to have everything to just live and do nothing." A youth in black uniform satirized with an arrogant expression towards Erina.
"Bai Jin, that\'s a bit too much." Luke furrowed his brows in annoyance.
"Is that too much? I just stated the truth. Let me tell you one thing, Miss Elysia and Miss White Beauty. Minamoto Erina can turn living and inanimate objects into gold or gemstones with just a touch. It\'s a curse for her, despite all the prosperity she has. Not many people were willing to deal with her, and those who dared to approach her were only those with ulterior motives. However, in your case, it looks like you are the ignorant who don\'t know about this yet. You don\'t know how many people have fallen victim to her." Bai Jin glanced at the three girls in front of him to incite the conflict.
"Uh." Erina gritted her teeth, but she was now worried about Elysia\'s answer. She only knew that Elysia was immune to her ability, but she never knew what Elysia thought about her.
"..." Mio just silently stood beside Erina, but she was ready to knock this scum guy down.
"So, where\'s the problem? Are you afraid of Miss Erina? She can turn me into gold if she can, but my navy uniform is still pure white when her gloves already turn to gold. Don\'t try to say nonsense like that again in front of me, or I will have no mercy on you, sir." Elysia closed her eyes with a faint smile.
"..." The young men and women in the elite team felt a subtle inner pressure because of Elysia\'s intimidating smile.
"Haha, if you can\'t speak properly, please get out of here, Bai Jin. Please pardon the audacity of this useless person, Miss Elysia, Miss Erina. He may have been too spoiled in his home country and didn\'t realize that his arrogance would only backfire on him. ." Luke laughed lightly to reconcile the situation.
"Hmm, apologize to Miss Erina, and it will be peace." Elysia shook her head.
"!?" Bai Jin gasped as everyone in the elite squad of the younger generation stared at him intimidatingly. They obviously wanted to force him to apologize.
"Tch, I\'m just telling you out of kindness, but no one appreciates it." Bai Jin spoke in a whisper-like voice. He apologized to Erina, but the girl only responded with a slight nod and a snort.
"Hmm, introduce, I\'m Lydia Collins. Please call me Lydia." A young lady in a black-red uniform greeted warmly. She stretched out her hand for a handshake.
"I\'m Elysia. Nice to meet you." Elysia thought for a moment and accepted the handshake with a bit of reluctance. She knew this girl didn\'t come up with anything good.
*Bzzt*
Lydia immediately released her hand from Elysia\'s grip in a hurry as her hand was electrocuted. It was like being pricked by many needles, and it was painful.
"Hmm-mm~ You want to try scanning me in a handshake, huh? Why would you want to do that? Are you just curious, or did someone tell you to do this?" Elysia took a step back.
"My apologies, I was just wondering what kind of person you are. You are close to Miss Erina, is it because you are someone special? I heard that she hugged you when the shock passed through the red hole earlier, but you were fine when her gloves became gold." Lydia glanced at Erina\'s golden gloves before apologizing to Elysia.
"I don\'t know if I\'m special or not, but Miss Erina said that I\'m pretty." Elysia looked at Erina with an innocent look.
"..." For some reason, Lydia felt that she received some emotional damage from that answer. It was an indirect mockery to explain that she was ugly?
"Fufu, you\'re bad, Elysia-san." Erina chuckled and covered her mouth.
After that, the young elites exchanged a few words with Elysia and Erina without involving any serious topics. They just wanted to exchange ideas and viewpoints with Elysia, actually.
About half an hour passed, and the mothership went into flight mode to move into the black sea. There was no significant danger within a five-kilometer radius.
Then, the warships were lifted by several helicopters into the black sea to follow.
At that moment, the spy units, one after another, lost contact.
"The spy units are destroyed by something unknown while crossing those mountains and forests. It seems to be the territory of a powerful demon." Mitsuzuka frowned to gaze deep into the thick fog. He didn\'t like their current state, where information was minimal, and they were clearly still in the danger zone.
"If they attack, then we just need to strike back. It\'s that easy and that simple. Damn, this thick fog is so annoying. Otherwise, I\'ll be sending America\'s most advanced warplanes to explore this area. How about you, Marco?" Adam clicked his tongue.
"We are now at sea. So, are there underwater demons too? The ones being monitored by us are only shadows and strange creatures that do not pose a significant threat, but here the stronger one is clearly there. dwell in the forest and the mountain." Marco distanced himself from Adam as he didn\'t like this guy.
\'Master Elysia, can you see them? Some powerful beings seem to have noticed our fleets. They probably think of us as alien existences in their territory. They\'re rapidly approaching.\' Rhea conveyed her observations with a bit of apprehension.
\'Mm, I can see some evil spirits around and shapeless creatures everywhere. Are they elemental spirits? But, uh, yeah, I can feel some powerful creatures are approaching us from land and sea. Let\'s see if Earth\'s human weapons are effective against the inhabitants of the underworld or not.\' Elysia decided to become a spectator and postponed exploring this realm with her little group.
Her only concern was Erina and the fate of the two thousand soldiers here.
