Unmatched / Meeting Again

Bai Ye's mind connected with the shield, and he felt its power.

Because this was a no-man's-land with only a few savage tribes, Bai Ye didn't activate the stealth and silence functions. Making too much noise almost caused a car accident.

"Looks like we've arrived." Specter stood up and took out his chainsaw. "I'll go down and clear the helipad first."

"Don't kill me, I'm here to talk business."

Bai Ye quickly warned him.

"Don't worry." Specter grinned.

Then, the nun jumped directly out of the open aircraft hatch.

[At that height, most people would die from a fall.]

Hane 2 doesn't quite understand the Specter's behavior.

Because his database does not contain any data about Abyssal Hunter.

"Don't worry, sharks are no ordinary people."

Bai Ye had Hane 2 control the aircraft, which hovered at low altitude, the air waves generated by the propellers causing the surrounding trees to shake violently.

"I remember my aircraft also had some special external equipment..."

[Hmm, like external speakers, I don't quite understand their purpose.]

Hane 2 turned his head.

"Hanajiro, turn it on quickly and make this place lively... Let me think, hmm, I should play this one first."

Although rock music was more exciting, Bai Ye chose another song out of consideration for the sense of ritual.

Suddenly, a symphony from another world resounded over the uninhabited rainforest of Sargon.

Chapter Twenty-Nine: Peerless

"That guy Bai Ye..."

In the air, the Specter heard the symphony emanating from the aircraft.

Laurentina's lips curled up, and she even closed her eyes.

"What untimely music! I wish it had been released sooner... Now, I don't have time to appreciate it properly."

Specter shook her head somewhat helplessly. If it weren't for the inappropriate timing, she would have really liked to stop and listen to the music properly.

With her eyes closed, Laurentina plummeted straight to the ground from mid-air.

"Bang—"

The sound wasn't loud, nor did it stir up any dust; after all, Specter wasn't Ultraman, and it wasn't even qualified to participate in the Gaia selection. However, Laurentina simply bent her knees slightly and absorbed all the enormous impact.

It was a high-altitude, parachute-less descent, after all; the impact from gravity would be difficult even for a Super Terra to withstand. But for Laurentina, it was nothing at all.

"Is this... like deploying Titan?"

Bai Ye watched from the aircraft as Specter, after parachuting and crashing to the ground, slowly stood up and couldn't help but smile.

[Unbelievable.] Hane 2 were dumbfounded. There was no such information in his database. This counterintuitive scene made Hane 2 feel incredulous.

"I told you, no problem, she can't stump me at all."

Bai Ye smiled and began directing Hane 2 to pilot the aircraft and hover in the sky.

"What fell down?"

"One person?"

"A woman, without a tail. She didn't fall to her death..."

"That's strange. We threw stones at that machine, but it didn't fall down. Instead, a person fell down."

Bai Ye saw a group of Adakiris surrounding the Specter.

"I almost forgot that there really are large crocodiles baring their teeth in the rainforest..."

Bai Ye hadn't met many Adakiris; he only remembered that Gravel, an operator in the Medical Department, was Adaklis. Oh, and there might be another Guard operator, but Bai Ye's stay at Rhodes Island was too short, so he didn't have much of an impression of them at all.

"Speaking of which, these Adaklis should all be considered to have the blood of the Ancients, right?"

These upright-walking Adakiris don't seem to fit Earth's aesthetic standards. They all have crocodile heads, or rather, they look more like... lizards?

It cannot be ruled out that some furry enthusiasts might like this.

Of course, calling them lizards isn't entirely accurate. Although they do look somewhat alike, there is a specific race of lizards in Terra — the Safra.

"However, speaking of which, I don't seem to understand what they're saying... Luna, please help! The game's language translation module needs an update..."

Bai Ye scratched his head.

Most of the time, Players can communicate seamlessly with the natives of Terra using the built-in translation function in the game's system panel, and the translation is absolutely accurate, expressive, and elegant.

Even the only common sayings on Earth can be found in Terra with matching phrases.

However, this is also the case in most cases.

Sometimes, language barriers may arise.

Demons script, Seaborn script, languages of Pre-Civilization, and the languages of some remote and isolated tribes...

When encountering these languages, the language translation module in the game panel seems to temporarily malfunction to enhance gameplay.

This area is likely Sargon's no-man's-land; although it lies halfway within Sargon's officially defined territory, it is not actually under their control.

This language is likely a tribal language unique to the local indigenous people, and it differs from the official language of Sargon.

Hane 2 also began to accept and analyze it.

"Damn it, Luna isn't willing to help right now, and you don't have any detailed information in your database..."

Bai Ye was somewhat troubled.

Unexpectedly, the first problem that stumped me was the language barrier.

"What are these land people saying?"

Specter frowned.

She held a circular saw and looked at the strange people surrounding her.

These land people didn't look quite like Bai Ye, and according to the Argonauts' aesthetic standards, she clearly preferred someone like Bai Ye.

"It's so noisy..."

All I could hear was a jumble of incomprehensible gibberish, which didn't sound like the common language of Terra at all.

"Anyway... let's take them all down first. These are the people who were throwing stones just now."

The Specter grinned, its scarlet eyes radiating madness.

Normally she's like a lady, but in battle, even when she's fully awake, Specter is no different from the crazy, chaotic deep-sea nun of the past.

The same madness.

"Oh, I almost forgot, Bai Ye said, it has to be alive, not murder."

Specter simply threw the circular saw on the ground and then raised his fist...

"It was a one-sided massacre..."

Bai Ye shook his head.

Although these crocodile people are much more capable of fighting than ordinary Terra, the Adakiris all martial people with strong physiques and are naturally good at fighting—almost like Vayf.

Unfortunately, they encountered Abyssal Hunter.

Those were warriors created by Sargos's cutting-edge bio-chimera technology, bio-engineered humans, originally weapons to fight against the gods.

Therefore, without exception, all these poor fellows were defeated.

In the end, only one remained.

"&&...!@"

What is he saying?

Specter knocked him unconscious with a punch, then picked up the saw at his feet.

She didn't move an inch; she simply stood still and took down all the enemies—of course, this was also related to the fact that these simpletons liked to charge straight in to fight.

Start the saw, and the Specter begins to cut down trees.

Although the Adakiris were not shredded with saws, they still found their purpose in this rainforest.

After a grove of trees was felled, Specter quickly cleared a space.

"Hanaijiro, assist me in landing."

Even though the ground here had been cleared by Specter, it wasn't really suitable as a landing pad. However, the aircraft that Bai Ye customized was a replica of the "Thunderhawk Gunship" on Earth, and its features were all-terrain landing and troop transport. So, with the help of Hane 2, Bai Ye managed to bring the aircraft to a steady stop.

"Let me hear the music you just played when we get back."

Specter approached, carrying a saw, seemingly still harboring resentment.

"No problem."

Bai Ye turned off the stereo.

Chapter Thirty: Reunion

(If there were a writing demon, it would definitely be the strongest and most terrifying!)

Bai Ye disassembled Hane 2 and then installed it on the base.

In fact, this robot, like Rhodes Island's "Lancet-2" and "Castle-3", is an R.G. Industries Existent™ Plus six-wheeled work platform.

Of course, both Bai Ye and Closure made personal customizations to these intelligent robots based on the standard version. They even carried out some special treatments after purchasing them.

The "Hane 2" of the Bai Ye can be removed from the six-wheeled platform base and then installed on the aircraft.

Based on this, Hane 2 can be directly connected to the aircraft's control console to directly control the aircraft.

On ordinary days, it can also function as an intelligent robot, using a robotic arm to perform auxiliary tasks—most often, such as maintaining aircraft.

"It looks like a rice cooker no matter how you look at it..." Specter still couldn't recognize it and complained, clearly unable to understand Bai Ye's aesthetic sense.

This character was designed by Bai Ye herself.

"It rivals Bai Ye's taste in naming." — This was Swire's original comment after seeing it.

"Hmph, shallow mortals, you don't understand anything... Luckily there's no Tsuburaya Productions here, otherwise we could summon Ultraman directly with just this."

As Bai Ye spoke, he shut off the aircraft's engine and then activated the external optical camouflage protection device.

Once activated, the aircraft will enter a state of continuous stealth, and the shield formed by the convergence of wind elements will also protect its safety.

"Let's go."

The Hane 2 was placed on the all-terrain off-road base and moved forward.

"You know the way?" Specter frowned. "I should have gone easy on you. You've knocked them out, so they can't give us directions."

"That's true..."

Bai Ye nodded.

Although we can't communicate verbally and can't reason with each other, we can talk about another kind of reasoning.

The principles of physics.

"Well, this is where we need to use the Augury Device. We'll connect it directly to Hane 2 —I remember there's a universal port here."

Bai Ye had to admit that Saria's gift was quite timely.

Although Atmospheric Authority can also help Bai Ye explore the way, their ultimate goal is to find minerals.
