Chapter 129 Do as Dr. Mei Says

"what to do?"

Vasak's mind suddenly went blank.

When he came in, he would always brag to the young guard about how brave he had been, but even he didn't realize it - people always like to brag about what they once had, but now they have actually lost it.

Hiding himself in the dark and unknown underground for many years, in addition to his pale skin color, he also became afraid of the sun and no longer had the vitality he once had. After years of fighting with others and being addicted to fighting for power, he began to become hesitant and careless like a politician, so his determination and bravery as a soldier also left him.

All Vasak has now is the scarred body of the former warrior Vasak.

He just realized this, but it was a little too late.

During the third collapse, he could sit high in Zhuhuo No. 1 and watch the battle with Herrscher from a distance through various detection equipment. He also heard Famas' last words in the communication.

He didn't have to face the Herrscher at that time.

Later, in Poison Chrysalis' office, he faced Mikael alone, even with the muzzle of the 270mm rail gun on his head, he didn't show much cowardice - at least that's what he thought.

Thinking about it now, it was because he subconsciously understood that Mikael was a rational Herrscher, and judging from his previous actions, he would not do anything too extreme.

That's why he felt confident.

But it was different now. The Herrscher was only dozens of nautical miles away from him and could fall on top of him at any time. Famas seemed to have seen that the Herrscher's claws easily tore through the nearly ten-meter-thick ceiling of the command room. Then take out those who can't escape and eat them one by one...

"No...why did I learn from Famas before and come to the front line to supervise the battle!"

The entire command room, from the staff and staff to the Karabis brothers and Mei, were all looking at him eagerly, waiting for him to come up with an idea.

But he just stood there, silent, and his only movement was to raise his hand to wipe the cold sweat from his temples.

The Karabis siblings might think that he is thinking of a new battle plan, but Mei has already seen everything:

"He is not thinking about anything else at all, but has spent all his strength to suppress the idea of ​​​​escaping alone... It is really sad for this person..."

"Moreover, what prevents him from escaping is probably not his sense of responsibility and dignity, but... he is afraid that after he escapes, he will never be able to embark on the road to power again... What a sad person..."

It is true that if you are willing to abandon all the equipment and soldiers on Agana Island, the people in the command post, at least Mei herself, can escape, but——

If everyone thinks this way, who else will fight against Honkai?

"Command, the defenders of Rota Island have lost contact. The last batch of soldiers heading to Rota Island encountered a tsunami, and only one person was washed back to the shore!"

"Command, the sea level near Agana is rising. How should we deal with it..."

"Commander, if you don't give the order..."

"command……"

"command……"

Puro kept urging from the side, and his voice was like a rope tied tightly around Vasak's neck. As his tone became more urgent, the rope became tighter and tighter. He just felt that his whole body was about to suffocate to death. In his field of vision, All the objects seemed to be coated with a shiny outline, and he had to support himself on the table with both hands to prevent his legs from falling to the ground - then his road to power would really come to an end...

"What to do! What to do! What to do!"

He suddenly came to his senses: Is this what matters now?

I need to come up with a battle plan!

But is it still too late?

It was like I was distracted during an exam. I looked up at my watch and saw that I had ten seconds to hand in the paper. I looked at the test paper again... Well, the questions were done and the class name was also written down...

But there are no cards for multiple choice questions!

The best horror game of the year!

It's not that he didn't try to calm down and think about the problem, but as soon as he started, Prol shouted again:

"Command! The Herrscher reaction was found in the three seas southeast of Rota Island...it seems to have really bypassed Rota Island and headed straight for us!"

With a "boom", the last string in Vasak's mind broke. There was really only a thin line between the Herrscher and him. No, the slight distance in between was just a piece of paper to the Herrscher. It will break if you poke it!

Fear completely defeated his reason: "What else do you care about? Survival is the most important thing!"

He unconsciously raised his feet and wanted to escape, but he realized with depression that it was too late to run now.

At this moment, a calm and decisive female voice, speaking rapidly yet gentle, sounded in his ears, like the sound of nature:

"There should be an energy barrier on Agana Island, right?"

May looked at Karabis.

The latter was stunned for a moment and quickly glanced at his sister. After the other party nodded imperceptibly, he replied: "Yes, but it lacks the power equipment on a large ship and can only operate at extremely low power." , it shouldn’t be of much use.”

Mei twitched the corner of her mouth, and it was hard not to feel that it was a sneer - no one here understood energy barriers better than her.

To be precise, everything Karabis said is true. Limited by the energy supply equipment, the energy barrier can only operate at extremely low power, which results in the barrier's low strength.

But the problem lies in "not high".

"Not high" is not a quantitative standard, but a floating, broad artificial definition - if you say the barrier is strong, the Herrscher can easily break it, but if you say it is not high, it can still block one or two tsunamis.

Karabis said that just to leave some room for the convenience of passing the buck in the future.

These are her teammates, each of them is not thinking about other things, but is ready to pass the buck to her early...

Mei is not unfamiliar with these dirty dark sides. When she was studying history - of course not in class, but when she studied human history herself, she was familiar with these games under power.

But when these methods were used on her by others, she felt a little uncomfortable.

"But... when disaster strikes, someone has to stand up... and I just happened to be standing here... since I'm standing here..."

"Command! The sea level in the nearby sea area has begun to rise rapidly! It is estimated that within 600 seconds, one-tenth of the land in Agania will be temporarily submerged by the sea!"

Pro shouted to remind Vashak, but his eyes inadvertently glanced at Mei - this girl took over the position of Mebius, and her power could be large or small. It seemed completely reasonable to have her command, and only she stood up.

Noticing this, Mei no longer hesitated:

"Immediately open the energy barrier, all ground personnel will move underground, and prepare for waterproofing and flooding."

Everyone focused their attention on Vashak again, but saw that he was stunned for another two seconds, and then shouted with a look of realization: "Just do what Dr. Mei said!"

The command room was busy again, and countless staff and staff shouted at the communication, but they were actually dispatching ground personnel.

Since Vashak had implicitly confirmed her command, Mei was completely unceremonious:

"Fix those heavy equipment that cannot be moved, try to ensure that they are not washed away, and then fill them with waterproof explosives!"

"Uh... Dr. Mei, we should not have enough time to fix all the heavy equipment..."

Although he did not understand his intention, Na Pro still kindly reminded him.

"Ah... Then just fix the concentrated heavy equipment as much as possible and fill it with explosives!"

In a few words, they completely bypassed Vashak, as if the person standing next to Mei Sheng was just a pile of air.

In response, Vashak's face was livid, but he had no way to do it-in fact, since he stood there and hesitated to come up with a combat plan, his authority was destined to plummet.

Now, let alone Lezren, his prestige in the eyes of the frontline soldiers is even inferior to that of Mei, a high school student. At least Mei can come up with countermeasures, but he can't.

So he sighed heavily, sat down on the iron chair in a huff, and said:

"Dr. Mei will take over the command next!"

After this, many people breathed a sigh of relief. They were trembling in fear, fearing that the previously depressed Vashak would get into a fight with Mei, who was actually in command.

Fortunately, this did not happen.

Mei's mouth curled up and then flattened. She herself was actually unsure. When had she ever commanded a battle?

But she remembered that Kevin had said something like this when he was bragging to her:

"Hey! Mei, do you know? What is the most important quality of a general on the ancient battlefield?"

"I don't know."

"Hey! Don't be like that! You should at least guess a few more times!"

"Uh... Even if I guess, I will only say what I think the answer is, but Kevin, you obviously want to tell me your answer, so why should I waste my time?"

"Uh... It seems to make sense! Then I just said it! The most important thing for a general is of course to make decisions! The battlefield situation changes rapidly. When the general needs to give orders, no matter whether the order he gives is good or bad, it is far better than doing nothing."

"Better than doing nothing..."

By the way, aren't the Moana Islands near the other end of the space rift that swallowed Kevin? Kevin... Mei believes that Mikael can protect him-if they meet.

She didn't dare to think of other possibilities, such as why Mikael hasn't appeared yet when the coordinates are obviously similar?

If Mikael were here, he would be able to solve all this easily... She couldn't help thinking so.

But then she dispelled this thought - humans can't always hide under the protection of one person, even humans themselves must have the power to defeat the collapse!

Otherwise... this is just a desperate struggle after all.

Mei twisted her fingers and finally lost the last bit of hesitation:

"Pro, in the next period of time, according to the number I reported, you will notify the corresponding flight squadrons one by one to load the corresponding amount of fuel and take off with bombs."
