He thought of the "treatment" that the association could exchange. He heard that no matter how serious the injury was, it could be cured. The owner of the association was indeed there at the time, but Ji Ya did not exchange it in advance. Did she take the initiative to cure herself?

This was the only possibility Himeya could think of.

However, in response to Captain Kazukura's question, Himeya could only shake his head, indicating that he didn't remember either.

Maybe he was hit by the tentacles of the alien beast or something, no one can tell. As long as he was fine, He Cang didn't care too much. He was concerned about something else.

As it was inconvenient to discuss in the operations room, Kazukura found Goroki alone.

"Captain Togo, they are asking, have you redeemed your 'treatment'?"

"Are you sure you want to take action?"

"Ah."

The meeting place with the leader of the association has been confirmed. They plan to meet in Tokyo Bay, where there is a secret military camp. In the military camp, let Goroki receive "treatment", even if he has no injuries, what is important is the appearance of the "young lady".

"The Ultra Armor and the AS that appeared in the last battle are really too technologically advanced. The λ-Driver system that materializes mental power is something that we humans cannot even imagine with our technology."

"There is such a force on Earth, but we know nothing about the purpose and personnel of the association. The superiors can no longer tolerate this."

Fortunately, the top leaders of TLT have not lost their minds and threatened to use force. They still intend to solve the problem through talks and communication. After all, there has been no real conflict between the two sides so far.

But that is not necessarily the case. Military forces will definitely be deployed in the barracks.

I just hope that there won't be a real conflict between the two sides. Kazukura, Mizoroki and others all know that with the technical strength shown by the "Association", it will be difficult for the Night Raid Team to gain any benefits.

"Is the assistant officer in charge of the negotiations?"

“Yes, this is a confirmed matter.”

In fact, it was precisely because of the existence of Oshima Reiya that her "future vision" allowed TLT to be somewhat confident that it could obtain some intelligence from the leader of the association. Otherwise, this action might not have been decided so easily.

Goromu was relieved. If he really wanted to communicate, he really didn't know what to say. Fortunately, he was only responsible for "making a phone call".

Of course he was nervous, after all, as a member of the association, he was not sure whether doing this would anger the other party, deprive him of his membership, or even punish him directly.

Either way, it was bad enough for Goroki.

Even though neither Kainaer nor the mysterious "young lady" had ever said that the secrets of the association were not allowed to be revealed, his actions were considered betrayal no matter how you looked at it.

If he put himself in his shoes, if someone from the night attack team tricked him into being surrounded by others for some reason, he would definitely not forgive him easily.

However, on the first day he revealed the existence of the association to TLT, he already understood that this was a risk he had to take in order to please both sides.

"What did the assistant officer say?"

"She said she's available any time."

Ling really didn't mind any time. Asking her to talk to the "big lady" of the association was a bit strange for the person involved.

But she also knew that humans were like frightened birds in the dark and did not dare to trust anyone. This was natural and she was not angry about it.

Communication is the best way to understand each other.

After learning that the top management intended to find the "young lady" through Goroki to communicate, Ling actually took the initiative in this operation. She even formulated the action plan, including the selection of location and time.

This communication will be extremely confidential.

In the TLT, apart from the three commanders and Assistant Officer Oshima, only Manager Matsunaga, Captain Wakura and Mizoroki knew about it. The latter was an actual participant, otherwise as the deputy captain of the night raid team, he would not have been able to know the confidentiality level of this operation.

At least, Staff Officer Kirarazawa knew nothing about it. And the other members of the Night Raid Team A Group were also unaware of it.

The military forces on alert were the combatants of the Night Raid Team Group B and Group C. They were only informed of the alert mission itself, and no other intelligence on the operation was explained.

Chapter 527 Communication

Lizi has lost contact.

One day when Gu Men had some free time to contact the other party, he found that he could not get through to the other party.

This is the first time this has happened.

Then Komon realized something. He and Lizi had no other way to contact each other except their phone numbers.

Apart from meeting each other often at the zoo, he didn't know where Lizi lived and didn't have any contact information for her family.

They thought they were so familiar with each other that there was no gap between them, but from beginning to end, the only way they were connected was through each other's cell phones.

Although it was just a one-time call and no one answered, Komon was already upset and had many thoughts. Was Lizi sick? What happened?

He completely understood how Lizi felt when he suddenly lost contact with her for a month a few months ago. With so many missed calls at that time, he also wanted to keep calling that number now.

He even wanted to find Riko through the Night Raid Team. As for the name Saida Riko, all the information could be easily found through the Night Raid Team's authority.

But reason stopped him.

In any case, what happened with Lizi was his private matter, and the Night Raid Team was not meant to provide personal services.

I just didn't answer the phone once, maybe I overslept, maybe I forgot to bring my phone, maybe...

There are all kinds of possible reasons, but Gu Men has no time to think about them because the night attack team is about to gather again.

This time it wasn't a monster. In fact, no one knew the reason for the gathering. When Komon hurried to the war room, he saw Captain Wakura, Saijo, Hiraki, Ishikura, and Himeya. The vice-captain was not there.

Everyone was sitting there. It couldn't be said that they were relaxed, but it had nothing to do with the tension before the battle. Saijo even stood up to make a cup of tea.

Hekura nodded to him and motioned him to sit down without saying anything else. Komon had no choice but to sit down.

"What happened?" he asked in a low voice to Shiori Hiraki beside him.

Because he had been his coach for a month, among the entire Night Raid Team, the person that Komon was most familiar with was actually Shiori. The other person was Himeya Jun, who was in the same team with him and usually flew the Chrome Chester α together.

He barely even spoke to anyone else.

Captain Wakura is usually a busy man. Vice Captain Goroki is quite friendly but always seems mysterious. Ishikura is a technical geek. As for Saijo, he is fierce all day long and seems to be the most difficult one to deal with in the Night Raid Team.

"On standby."

Shiori simply uttered two words.

"On standby?"

In the more than one month since joining the Night Raid Team, this was the first time that Gu Men had heard of such a mission. No alien beasts appeared, and there was no emergency, but they were left in the operations room.

I wasn't even told what I was on standby for.

And where did Vice Captain Goroki go?

Tokyo Bay, TLT underwater military base.

The Night Raid Team A was on standby at the Freedom Fortress, ready to go at any time, while Team B and Team C were already here on full alert, carrying their Deweyt rifles, ready to guard against any possible accidents.

"Assistant, when do you think we can start?"

Manager Matsunaga bent down and asked in a low voice.

"at any time."

Although Ling was also assigned to be in charge of the negotiations, she did not look nervous at all. Instead, Goroki looked a little nervous.

"Are you ready, Lieutenant?"

Goromu breathed a sigh of relief. This was inside the base, and the empty room was a meeting room.

Although there were no extra people in the room, only him, Assistant Officer Oshima and Manager Matsunaga, the outside was of course heavily guarded. Normally, no one could come in.

But that is the master of the association.

An association that can create such irrational black technologies as Sky Fortress, Ultra Armor, and λ-Driver System, and even exchange them for Earthlings at will. The identity of its owner is simply unimaginable, an alien, or even a god or demon.

In any case, it is beyond human understanding.

"Link Start"

With a silent thought, Goromu's consciousness entered the association. There were not many people in the virtual hall, and Miss Kaina was there as a matter of course.

The red-haired wanderer with a cross scar on his face walked up to Kaynar step by step.

"I want to use the full body treatment I exchanged earlier now." He held his breath after saying this, not knowing what would happen.

But nothing happened, Kenar just smiled and nodded.

"Of course, Kenshin-san."

Goroki knew that his mission was completed, and he didn't need to do anything now. Anything he did would be superfluous. But he couldn't help but continue to speak.

"You must know why I want to exchange for treatment?"

"know."

"Then why..."

"Because the young lady has no ill will towards humans."

It is natural to fear the unknown and be wary of things that cannot be understood.

The association did not take its anger out on him, nor did it punish him. This was much better than what Goromu had imagined, but it also puzzled him.

He didn't understand what on earth was worthy of such an existence for human beings.

No matter what they want to do, it is nothing more than a matter of interests, seeking benefits from humans or from the earth. Selfless aliens cannot exist and should not exist.

This was also the thought of the other people in the meeting room of the military base. Commander Matsunaga was standing nearby. He felt a little hot and took out a handkerchief from his pocket to wipe the sweat.

For a life that is likely to be a higher civilization than humans, any tension is understandable. Not only him, but the three highest officials were not present, but everything here was transmitted to the Freedom Fortress via video. Dongxiang, Xiaoliu, and Soma sat in the multimedia conference room and clearly watched everything happening here through the video projection.

So when that figure suddenly appeared in front of everyone, Matsunaga unconsciously took a step back.

Even Dongxiang, Xiao Liu and the other two who were just watching through the screen held their breath at the same time.

It really showed up!

"Assistant Officer Oshima, can you discover the other party's true identity?"

Togo's voice came from the invisible headset in Lingye's ear. He could vaguely sense a sense of uneasiness.

Faced with this unknown situation, they urgently need an explanation to dispel their fear.

Being able to appear at this military base at any time means being able to appear at the Freedom Fortress at any time, and appear in front of the night raid team members and their senior officials.

Ling did not disappoint and gave the answer.

“That’s mass projection.”

"Mass projection?"

"A way of applying mental force to materialize. The existence of mental bodies is achieved through... um," Ling stopped explaining in detail, thinking that no one present would understand if she explained it too professionally.
