Chapter 637 Facing reality
......
After X's mimic "Pinhaoguai" appeared.
Due to Jiang Mengyue's accumulation of troops, the expansion speed is extremely fast.
In just less than three hours, thirty percent of the forces observable by the ship girls had been devoured.
And who knows how much there is that is unobservable.
At this moment, Jiang Mengyue disappeared.
No one knows where the big Jiang Mengyue in the sky has gone, and the little Jiang Mengyue can’t be woken up.
The suppression power of the Constructors and carrier-based aircraft flying in the sky on the Mimics is not very effective, but it is better than nothing.
And just now.
Something happened that surprised the ship girls.
All the units summoned by Jiang Mengyue stopped attacking the mimic in an instant.
The attack on the alien beast did not stop.
It was as if the monsters in the game had lost their hatred for the protagonist.
However, the mimicry has not stopped devouring the troops summoned by Jiang Mengyue!
The ship girls lost the support of the arbitrator Jiang Mengyue, but the mimicry has not stopped and is becoming stronger and stronger as it devours the troops...
Moreover, some mimics have metal armor and have "evolved" into heavy artillery that can launch long-range attacks...
There is also a trend of moving towards the Rose Tower...
At this rate, the Rose Tower will definitely not last more than a day!
At this moment, Queen Elizabeth pulled the commander into a small room and started a conversation.
"Commander, the situation is not optimistic."
"Without Jiang Mengyue's support, we won't be able to hold out for long."
"Tirret showed no sign of coming to support us."
"We need to seriously consider our evacuation plan."
"Using the Queen's Light train and the Camelot Court on standby, we have the ability to get everyone out safely."
"The Lions and their group can come with us. Ms. Glory-META can also come with us."
"But we must make a decision quickly. Once the Rose Tower's barrier is broken, it will be difficult to escape smoothly."
The commander thought carefully about the current situation.
"As it stands, we can last at least another eight hours, maybe longer."
The commander still didn't want to give up those more than 400 worlds.
Shabai advised: "The META fleet is not good at holding on, and the constructors can't help much in this situation."
"Every extra minute of fighting brings an extra risk."
"We have done enough. And it is clear that Anticus is not reliable."
"But Jiang Mengyue..." The commander frowned slightly.
"I know," Sha Bai waved his hand to interrupt the commander, "She is special, I admit it."
"However, given the current situation outside, we must consider the worst-case scenario. Arbitrator Jiang Mengyue may have encountered an accident."
"Commander, you also said that she is a new Siren, and she has been a Siren for less than a year."
"During this year, she became the arbitrator by some means."
"The military strength and suppression outside have indeed confirmed her status as an arbitrator."
"But we also have to consider whether she has the experience to fight against X at such a young age. Her deployment of troops now will only further strengthen X's mimic until none of us can escape."
"What's more, we have lost contact with her now."
"She said she could use her body as a coordinate for teleportation. I don't understand why she hasn't come here yet if she really met with an accident."
"We can only consider this situation, right?"
Now, facing the cruel reality outside.
The commander had to nod and admit that what Shabai said did make sense.
Seeing the commander just nod without saying anything, Sha Bai continued, "Don't forget, Commander."
"Antixus only cares about their own plan. As long as they can defeat X in the end, they don't care about any losses."
"Whether it's them, you, or us."
“It’s like a cold and ruthless machine that only knows how to execute orders and has lost its restraints.”
"Apparently you have some connection with Anticus through a channel unknown to me. Perhaps, you get along well with some of them."
Today's builder is a clear example, and the commander also met Jiang Mengyue in a place that Queen Elizabeth didn't know.
"However, how can you be sure that what you are experiencing is not part of their plan?"
"Jiang Mengyue's existence and her experience are all very suspicious. You haven't seen her with your own eyes, so why do you trust her so much?"
"Now, our world and the world where the lion is are both safe. The two buds you asked us to focus on before were also deliberately destroyed by my other self."
“Is it cruel to leave the other world alone? Yes, it is cruel.”
"But the situation is like this, and we have no other choice."
"We are just taking care of the people we care about, and we have to do our best just to survive."
"If we die here meaninglessly, what will happen to the people we are supposed to protect?"
"Such destruction is happening all the time, either by the Siren, or by X, or by themselves, or by something strange."
“Where we can see it, or where we can’t see it.”
“Maybe the next one will be you or me.”
"We are not gods, nor saviors, are we?"
Faced with the cruel reality, the commander still wanted to fight for it a little longer.
"But... every bit of effort we make can make this cold result a little warmer."
"We cannot turn a blind eye to the tragedy before our eyes just because sacrifice is inevitable."
"We believe that the Sirens' path is wrong. We need to take a different path from them, so we cannot get used to indifference."
Silly Bai nodded, "That's right..."
"That's why I have been trying to find more allies and help more experimental sites."
“Things can get better step by step, but things can’t get better all at once.”
“We can remember the sacrifices of these people, lament our present powerlessness, and do our best to avoid being at a loss when we encounter such things again in the future.”
"But now, for us at this moment, what we can't do, we just can't do."
"Commander, don't forget what you promised me before. If something is impossible, don't force it."
Seeing Shabai's determined look, the commander sighed.
"You're right...I admit it."
"But there is still time. We haven't played all our cards yet. Now is not the time to make a final decision."
Silly Bai held his forehead with his hand, "Alas, this king knew it."
"Did Elizabeth-META ask you to persuade me?" asked the commander.
"Half and half, eight hours at most. This is the time it takes for the mimic to get here." Shabai said.
Eight hours is not a lot, but it is enough to do a lot!
"Okay, in eight hours, we'll execute the evacuation plan!"
There is no way. The commander also knows that things that cannot be done cannot be done. They cannot stay here and fight to the death with the mimic.
"Well, some people are getting impatient and planning to leave first."
Elizabeth smiled.
"They don't buy into the 'I'm Queen Elizabeth, so I'm the one who has to listen to me' thing, so remember to think about how you're going to tell them that."
The commander immediately thought of who Queen Elizabeth was talking about, the Lion.
"Okay, I'll go find her, you go ahead and do your work," said the commander.
Just as the commander finished speaking.
Koei-META's voice spread throughout the Rose Tower through the speakers.
"Emergency! Everyone please gather in the lobby immediately!"
Then came the voice of Queen Elizabeth-META: "Commander, come and see!"
Shabai and the commander looked at each other and hurried to the lobby.
