Theodore's Intelligence!
Chapter 1957 Theodore's Intelligence!
Besides Takayuki, many other people have come seeking help with questions related to their hometown.
He Ming is happy to answer some of the questions.
Many of the questions were answered by Alice, who had personally investigated and gathered considerable intelligence.
Watching those faces, some happy, some sad, leave after their questions were answered, Alice felt a pang of sorrow, though she did not feel tired.
Being caught up in this chaotic world, even if one learns that the crisis of BETA has been resolved, but still cannot find their homeland and has no way to return, most people's reactions are predictable.
People who can shout and cheer without a care in the world are still a very small minority.
Most people left the hall with mixed feelings of joy and sorrow, following the directions of the Earth Federation soldiers to the makeshift mess hall to fill their stomachs, or to the field shower room to take a hot shower, change into brand-new, thick winter coats, and wait for the next assignment.
As the crowd gradually dispersed, Alice noticed Theodore standing in the corner.
"Is that Theodor Eberbach, Alice Bernhard's old subordinate?"
As a human whose mental strength was growing stronger, He Ming locked onto the other person's location the moment the other person cast a glance at him, but simply ignored his gaze.
"Yes. He is Theodor Eberbach."
Alice responded and waved to Theodore.
Judging from their expression, they probably came with some kind of purpose.
"Colonel Ming of the Earth Federation Forces. Nice to meet you."
When Theodore approached He Ming, his attitude did not seem very friendly.
"If this is your attitude of asking for a favor, then there's no need for the rest of the conversation. I have no obligation to help you."
He Ming had already seen through Theodore's purpose and knew where his stiff attitude came from.
"you!!"
Theodore felt a surge of anger, but he still had to lower his head and admit his mistake.
"I lost my composure! I'm sorry, Colonel Ming!"
"We can offer assistance to friends to the best of our ability. But as for enemies, that base outside is a prime example. Theodore, please have a clear and accurate understanding of the chaos in this world today."
He Ming stood up, gave a reminder, and looked at Alice.
"Go find Lian! If Lian is willing to help."
"lotus?!"
Alice was taken aback, then realized that He Ming had seen through Theodore's thoughts.
"But···"
“There are no ‘buts’ or ‘nos.’ If Lian is willing to help her old friend, I won’t stop her. But if she refuses, there’s nothing I can do to help her.”
He Ming paused for a moment, then turned his gaze to Theodore.
“You only get one chance. And I’m giving you this chance because you helped Warrant Officer Alice complete this mission.”
"Wait! Colonel Ming! I have another piece of information!"
Although Theodore didn't know who Lian was, he could tell from Alice's troubled expression that this was definitely an impossible task.
In an attempt to seize that glimmer of hope, Theodore finally revealed the intelligence he possessed.
"America's Ministry of Defense is collaborating with a mysterious figure known as Doctor Hell, providing him with samples to assist him in completing a secret research project in order to gain power far exceeding that of the Tactical Machine."
"A power even stronger than a tactical machine? A mechanical beast?" He Ming said disdainfully.
"Mechanical beasts are good, but we also have quite a few remnants from them!"
"No. It's not a mechanical beast! It's a completely new power developed by combining genes and machinery."
"Oh?"
Theodore's words piqued He Ming's interest.
"Genes and machinery? Interesting. Compile the information you have into a report! When the report is finished, I won't mind saying a few good words for you to Lian."
With a casual gesture, He Ming pointed, and the information terminal closest to Theodore flew to Theodore's front.
"It will help you complete this report."
Theodor was overjoyed and quickly reached out to take the information terminal.
"Thank you! Thank you, Colonel Ming!"
Amid Theodore's thanks, He Ming and Alice Tina left the hall and headed towards the heavy fork-class marine Nicosia.
During the journey, Alice seemed to be pondering something.
"Thinking about that intelligence about Theodore?"
After catching a snowflake in his hand and watching it melt in his palm, He Ming asked a question.
"Yes. During the time I was acting according to Ren's instructions, I did not find any information related to Dr. Hell."
Alice nodded, expressing her doubts.
"There's no need to get hung up on this. After all, compared to you, Alice Bernhard from a parallel world, he's the one who struggled to survive in that desperate world for over twenty years."
He Ming smiled and said casually.
"Moreover, it was under such difficult circumstances that he took care of Alice Bernhard, who was seriously injured and still in a coma, without ever abandoning her."
Alice looked up at the gloomy clouds that scattered snowflakes, then shook her head.
"I... greatly admire his perseverance! I am also touched by his unwavering loyalty. But I am not the Alice Bernhard he is protecting."
He nodded.
"That's good. Maintaining a clear understanding is good for you, for him, and for Alice Bernhard, who will awaken in the future."
“Yes, my lord. From this day forward, Alice Bernhard will only ever be a guard who follows you.”
"No need to be so serious, Alice. We're just companions on a long journey! Hehe."
Alice's eyes lit up, and she asked.
"Are these the words spoken by the High Prophets that Lian mentioned?"
"Really? Maybe!"
Following this battle, all of America's numerous "pioneer groups" established on the Kamchatka Peninsula were taken in by the Earth Federation Army led by He Ming, and the many technical personnel imprisoned there were released, taken in, and placed under unified management.
Those willing to join the punishment will be arranged on the spot according to the technical director. Those who are unwilling or are observing will be provided with travel expenses by He Ming, who will arrange for them to visit places like Chabulo.
What they will think after visiting Chabro, or even the lunar cities further on, is their own business.
