C. C said that he didn't understand genetic modification at all, but he also understood from Xiao Ran's words that Xiao Ran's eyes were just an external reflection of Mental Power's sudden increase after being strengthened by scientific means, just like he used CODE, or Lelouch used GEASS, forehead and eyes. The eyes will appear like flying bird runes, but because Xiao Ran's Mental Power is too powerful, the eyes will always remain like this. And for the same reason, Xiao Ran, who was supposed to evolve from one GEASS to two GEASS, opened two eyes directly after getting the GEASS ability.
After listening to Xiao Ran's words, C. C turned around and left the living room and headed for the kitchen where Saki was. However, before entering the kitchen, C. C's footsteps paused and he turned his head and glanced in the direction of the living room. "In the end, he still didn't answer me at all about who he is... However, at that time, I was so stupid that I couldn't feel the slightest thoughts and desires in his heart. Who is this guy."
Soon, Saki Maski also obtained the GEASS ability from C. C. Like Xiao Ran, Saki Maski's GEASS ability is also a temporary product and can only be used in this world. If you want to make this ability permanent, you need some special means with unknown temporary conditions.
The GEASS ability obtained by Saki Maski is called beauty. To put it bluntly, it is also an ability similar to hypnosis. It can make others fall into the beauty in their hearts, or let others see the beauty they have experienced. The former can be used to comfort, while the latter can be said to be an illusion. For combatants like the participants Generally speaking, if this ability is used well, it can make people die with a smile, and kill someone easily in an instant. But if it is not used well, it can probably serve as a psychological counselor in the team. If it is useful, it is somewhat useful, and it has the potential to become a magical skill. If it is not used, it is really not very useful. Sometimes a bullet is enough to solve many problems.
Moreover, Saki Maski, who obtained the GEASS ability, did not know Xiao Ran and opened his eyes directly. It is also a sight-type GEASS power, and it is active rather than the passive, active field-type GEASS of Xiao Ran.
It is not surprising that Saki Maski can obtain such an ability. In Saki's heart, everyone longs for beauty, even now. Saki Maski went through a lot of darkness when he was young, and in the darkness, he always looked forward to the arrival of a beautiful day. Now Saki's life is very beautiful, but the mood of yearning for beauty has not changed at all.
However, based on Saki's clan and the special body-switching ability before becoming a participant, Xiao Ran initially thought about whether Saki's GEASS would have the ability to switch bodies by sight. If that was the case, it would certainly be able to play a more important role in this mission. It has a great effect, but I didn't expect that it would turn out to be such a GEASS that is similar to a combination of psychological soothing and illusion abilities. But the only thing worth mentioning is that as a caster, Saki can clearly sense the beauty that the other person pursues in his heart. This is a condition worth taking advantage of.
Combined with the King's Power (influence) of Xiao Ran, or the power of the king, you can know what others want in their hearts, and while satisfying the inner beauty of others, you can also give people the influence of the king. It is like a combination of stick and carrot, and it is still very useful.
That night, like bandits, the three of them stayed in Suzaku Kururugi's home for the whole night without any permission or invitation. In the early morning of the next day, the construction team that Xiao Ran had contacted the day before came here with housekeeping and began to inspect and repair the entire house. They also carried out exceptional cleaning and renovation of the entire house. By the way, they replaced all the things Xiao Ran had purchased the day before.
After getting up, Xiao Ran left the chores in the house to Saki and C. C. He went out alone and started to investigate the situation of Outside World. Of course, the main purpose was to investigate whether there were other participants in the city, or whether the legion had entered, and also to see the impact of Lelouch's killing of the soy sauce prince.
Walking slowly in the city, Xiao Ran's eyes under his sunglasses were also looking at everything around him. Compared with the ruins outside the ring road, everything in the city seemed extremely delicate and clean, and also seemed extremely calm, even at this time.
The battle outside the ring line the day before was not known much to people in the city. Even all the news only briefly introduced the situation of the ruins outside the ring line. The real cause was not explained at all. Instead, it was said that terrorists carried out terrorist activities and released poisonous gas, which led to the death of countless Area 11 people. The whole country was in mourning, and even the death of the prince was not announced.
Logically speaking, Xiao Ran did not receive direct information. Even if he knew about the development of the plot and the death of the other party, he was only so certain. However, Xiao Ran did not find out about it through the news. Instead, he directly used Personal Terminal to hack into the empire's communications and learned about it. Then he went to watch the news and found many unclear places in the news.
However, the city is still so peaceful now. It can be confirmed that the empire has not announced the matter yet. Otherwise, the city will never be so peaceful.
Xiao Ran seems to be wandering aimlessly in the city, but in the process of wandering, he is also getting familiar with the layout of the city and those important buildings. He is also thinking about the complete development of the world plot of Lelouch, grabbing important nodes from it, and gaining greater benefits and advantages.
With the memory of almost a whole day, Xiao Ran also thought of more special information about this world that was unknown to other participants.
"First of all, we need to determine what happened the day before. If Outside World cannot detect it, then we can only hack into the empire's network again to determine the required information."
"In addition, even if ten full legions really join this mission, they may not all gather at Area 11. If the ten legions are dropped in one place, it will cause great chaos on the day based on the urine of the participants, especially when operating on a legion scale. Therefore, the entire earth is likely to be the drop location for all legions, and my side was only dropped directly to this most core place because of the special nature of the mission."
"In terms of forces, even Area 11 is quite complicated. Even Resistance Organization has several. In addition, the remaining forces of the original Japanese military should be regarded as a separate force, let alone the entire earth. Just the alliance over Europe can be regarded as one country. A force, dozens of countries can be regarded as dozens of forces. If you really put it this way, there are actually a lot of forces to choose from. As long as they are not impulsive, those legions will probably carefully identify the forces before choosing to join. In the end, as long as the legions are not confident that their power is too strong, generally speaking, there are only a few choices left for them."
"So far, there is still too little I can do. The basic information I need is simply not enough. It would be too difficult for me to collect it alone... I am not El-Elf and Kane. I can only be considered an amateur when it comes to intelligence collection, and I don't have enough manpower at my disposal. The Resistance Organization that Lelouch comes into contact with now needs to be conquered, but it is enough to leave it to Lelouch. According to the original plot, ZERO must also appear and become another flag to better cooperate with me."
"There are only three things to do as soon as possible. First, confirm the camp. This camp must be the camp that Lelouch and I jointly created. After Lelouch created a Black Knights, it is necessary for this Knights Order to appear as soon as possible to confirm Main Mission."
"Second, join the empire as soon as possible to become another banner, nominally opposing Black Knights, and obtain a position in the empire that can influence Area 11 and have high-level authority. In this way, I can secretly establish a new Technology Department gate, specifically for the development of the machines I need to use, and by the way, conquer a group of useful subordinates."
"Third, confirm the restrictions and locations of other legions. You can't rush this, you can only act slowly."
Unknowingly, Xiao Ran slowly walked to the core of the city, which is also the core circle of the empire's power on Area 11. Looking at those tall buildings, Xiao Ran's eyes narrowed slightly. "This method of self-recommendation cannot achieve my goal, so is there only one option left?"
"Personal Knight, who will become the next new governor Area 11, the first governor Cornelia or the second governor Euphemia, is the knight of one of them, but In comparison, of course, being with Cornelia will give you greater rights, but being with Euphemia will give you more autonomy, but when it comes to autonomy, the key is not to look at your own abilities."
"But if I want either of these two people to choose me to be their knight, I can't do it even with the power of Lelouch. I need to find an opportunity to get in touch with these two people. But what if I completely exclude Suzaku Kururugi? This The boy has some value, but he is valuable to me only if he follows me. If not, then he is worthless. So before that, can I let Saki become the guardian knight of the little princess Euphemia? In this way, the rights of the two governors can be used by me."
Xiao Ran squinted his eyes and looked at the castle-like building at the core of the building circle in front of him. He turned around slightly and began to walk away slowly. Before Xiao Ran could return to Suzaku Kururugi's home that he had forcibly occupied, all the TVs in the area started playing the same picture.
A man with blue hair announced the death of the prince, and announced the arrest of the suspect to the entire Area 11. He also established the specific time when the suspect would be tried, and announced the identity of the suspect - Suzaku Kururugi.
Obviously, the previous meeting between Suzaku Kururugi and Lelouch was changed a little because of Xiao Ran, but the result was similar. In the end, this guy couldn't change the situation and was arrested as a suspect. Although Xiao Ran was not sure about the cause and effect, Suzaku Kururugi was knocked out by Xiao Ran. Not far from where he fainted, a group of Guard Force soldiers killed by Saki happened to die. Lelouch took away the pistol belonging to Suzaku Kururugi for some unknown reason, and used this gun to kill the short-lived prince. Coupled with some special reasons within the empire, Suzaku Kururugi naturally became the best target for the top cylinder.
In Xiao Ran's opinion, the blue-haired man who appeared on the TV at this time probably didn't believe it, or was not sure that Suzaku Kururugi was the murderer of the prince. But in his opinion, even if he was not the murderer, he must have a special relationship with the murderer. Otherwise, why were all the other Guard Force dead there, but Suzaku Kururugi was just in a coma.
In addition, the identity of Suzaku Kururugi was announced, and the time and place of the trial were announced. This kind of trick was simply not worth mentioning in Xiao Ran's opinion. It was nothing more than hoping to use Suzaku Kururugi to arrest those who were really suspected, or the suspected Suzaku Kururugi. My friend, this idea is good, but the result is very cruel. According to the normal plot, Lelouch ended up being severely set up by Lelouch, and Lelouch's incarnation ZERO also officially appeared on the stage. Of course, it is impossible for Xiao Ran to know whether the blue-haired man thinks so.
In the following time, Xiao Ran fell completely silent, no longer wandering around, but quietly paying attention to the development of the situation, and at the same time using the fool-like technical means in Personal Terminal to steal Various information from Area 11 also confirmed the time when the two princesses Cornelia and Euphemia arrived at Area 11, and also noticed the machine called Lancelot.
Just the day before Suzaku was about to be tried, Lelouch appeared in front of Xiao Ran again without warning, and brought with him the blind girl Nanalie, Due to the time limit given by Xiao Ran, and the fact that Suzaku was about to be tried, Lelouch finally couldn't sit still and took the initiative to come to Xiao Ran. At the same time, he handed his biggest weakness into the hands of Xiao Ran.
Saki and C. C accompanied Nanalie to make origami in the living room. Although Nanalie was blind, he was very happy to meet two new friends and did not notice Xiao Ran and Lelouch who had left the living room.
Lelouch walked outside with Xiao Ran. After a long silence, the first thing he said to Xiao Ran was, "I want you to help me. As a collaborator, you also have such an obligation."
"Suzaku Kururugi." Xiao Ran smiled slightly, nodded and said, "Okay."
