Chapter 512: Chapter 512: First Meeting with Ray
Cagalli returned with the Archangel using the mass driver. After exchanging a few words with Cagalli, He Kui returned to his room.
Today's main characters were Luna and Meyrin. Shihe and Sulei had temporarily left the scene to pick vegetables in the Hydroponic Pod area.
The girl sitting across from He Kui was looking at him with a complex expression.
"So Meyrin knows too?"
Luna, looking at her sister sitting beside He Kui not far away, had a complicated expression on her face.
"Yes, she does~"
Meyrin nodded. Having already mentally prepared herself, she didn't show much shyness, only a faint smile as she looked at her sister.
"So..."
Luna, seeing her sister's radiant and rosy complexion, felt a sense of foreboding.
"Mmm~!"
Meyrin responded and then actively turned to kiss He Kui. The two of them kissed deeply in front of Luna, showing no intention of stopping.
Watching the two in front of her, Luna's face turned so red it seemed like steam might burst out. She was both embarrassed and annoyed, looking utterly delectable.
"Luna, would you like to join?"
He Kui, holding Meyrin, approached Luna.
Seeing the two before her, such a serious challenge to her moral compass made Luna want to leave. But seeing the comfortable expression on her sister's face and He Kui's calm smile, the girl couldn't help but swallow hard.
"Big sister, you've done it in front of Meyrin before, so it's okay."
Meyrin spoke up at the right moment. At this point, Meyrin finally began to feel shy. Although she said this, her eyes avoided looking at her sister.
"..."
Seeing that Luna didn't speak but also didn't leave, the smile on He Kui's lips deepened.
Then, while princess-carrying Meyrin, he kissed Luna.
"So mean..."
Meyrin, watching from between the two, licked her lips and then leaned in with her red lips.
A pleasant night passed. Since it was their first attempt, He Kui didn't let Sulei and Shihe join in.
So no new skills were unlocked.
But it was almost there.
Looking at the twin flowers on the bed, as red as roses, recalling the fiery passion of last night's skin, and the even more profound Quantum Virus and Genesis, He Kui suddenly felt filled with strength.
Just then, another call came in.
"He Kui, did you hear about what happened yesterday?"
As he walked to a corner to answer the phone, Joule's cool yet tense voice came through from the other end.
"Yes, I saw the battle report."
"I thought you would have contacted me last night."
Hearing He Kui's words, Joule also felt a bit embarrassed.
The reason they didn't contact He Kui, aside from wanting him to focus on the development of the Nano Treatment Pod and Genesis, was also because, as a former member of East Asia, they were a bit worried. So they decided to let He Kui avoid the situation.
"We had a meeting last night, and cooperation with East Asia will continue as usual."
Although East Asia has shown its strength, it doesn't seem to be very aggressive.
Referring to the century-old case, it's likely they won't take the initiative to attack.
So cooperation continues as usual.
"That's good. I heard the Archangel went over there too."
"Yes, but we didn't expect them to agree."
"Still using the name 'Pallas,' huh?"
Joule quipped before continuing.
"Anyway, after our people finish cleaning up the battlefield, we'll withdraw from East Asia."
"And what about Genesis? Can we start the first round of testing?"
"Yes, within a week. We're already doing the final checks."
"Then let's get it started as soon as possible."
Hearing Joule's words, He Kui followed up with a question.
"Where's the target location?"
"The Moon, but it's next to their base."
"We won't directly hit their base."
"After all, doing something like that would be hard to handle."
Everyone here is respectable. If things really escalated, we'd definitely be besieged internationally and in the court of public opinion.
Only the Atlantic Federation, which has already been played by terrorists, would act so disgracefully.
And now, with the Clyne Faction keeping things in check, if we were to escalate things all at once, we might all instantly become war criminals violating the laws of war.
Some weapons go beyond the scope of war—that's called slaughter, not war.
Although, in this regard, most people's moral boundaries are quite flexible.
But a Genesis strike is too big of a deal; there's no room for flexibility.
"I understand."
The inspection work was going smoothly. After all, it was just a check, and having He Kui on-site would be overkill.
He Kui has too many projects on his hands. As previously agreed, he was only there to assist.
He wasn't the person in charge.
So naturally, He Kui didn't go to Genesis but instead went to February City.
"Director Durandal, hello."
Standing at the door of the laboratory in the research institute, He Kui smiled at the young man.
This was Creuset's friend. It's a pity there's no evidence, or else we would have definitely caught him.
Of course, with his own physical fitness, plus Lika and Iron Wall behind him, and the vigilant Little Bird around him, he was quite safe.
But today, besides Durandal, there was another person by his side—a young boy with golden hair.
He was staring at He Kui with curious eyes.
"This is Rey, the child of a friend."
"The child of Director Durandal's friend must be quite outstanding, right?"
He Kui asked cheerfully.
"Rey, are you looking to specialize in genetics like Director Durandal?"
Hearing He Kui's words, Rey shook his head.
"I want to join the military."
"I see."
The conversation hit a dead end, but He Kui didn't mind and just followed Durandal into the depths of the laboratory.
Unlike the MS testing grounds he usually saw, the reflective metal walls were embedded with huge display screens. Inside the transparent glass, technicians in sterile suits were conducting final checks.
Meanwhile, behind the glass, several elderly gentlemen were observing the situation inside through the monitors.
These elders first gave He Kui a warm, friendly smile and then said,
"Councilor He Kui, we're ready to start whenever you are."
"Alright, thank you. Let's begin then."
He Kui nodded.
"Good, the system is normal, environmental monitoring data is normal."
"High-simulation model entering the treatment pod."
A dough-like humanoid blob was placed into the treatment pod.
It was reported that this model had a physiological structure similar to humans, capable of simulating complex physiological processes such as blood circulation and immune responses.
As a test subject for a trauma treatment machine, it was sufficient. After all, they couldn't directly find someone for serious experimentation.
With the closure of the nanotherapy pod, the nanotherapy procedure officially began.
