Chapter 46: Chapter 46: My Senior Brother is a Boss
Ryan remembered that Hua said "don't be afraid" twice after coming out with him, but the same words were completely different when he thought about it carefully.
The last time, she had the curiosity and drive that is unique to a seventeen year old girl, and she was eager to try, as if she had the power to save the world.
But this time, it was extremely precious. She witnessed the reality of the world with her own eyes, and unlike Ryan, she saw a high end battle right from the start.
The fishing boat was like pieces of paper, the sea was like a curtain, and people were nothing in front of this force, so Ryan was worried about the counterproductive effect and came to comfort her.
"If this was the case when I first encountered Honkai, I would have been doomed to die."
Ryan complained in his heart and was very surprised by Hua answer. He thought that he was worthy of being one of The Thirteen Flame-Chasers. Strength can be compensated by training, but personality is determined by nature.
"As expected of my junior sister, you are born with a big heart. You are not afraid of such a scene." Ryan held the girl's shoulders, his eyes burning, "Don't think too much, this is an accident. I originally wanted to use two lower-level Honkai beasts to test you, but I didn't expect a big guy to show up."
Hua looked at Ryan with an expression that said 'I'm optimistic about you' and sighed quietly in her heart. She was actually very scared, but because this man was standing in front of her, like a mountain blocking the wind and rain, she was no longer afraid.
But she was not good at explaining, so she had to change the subject: "Was that a missile that fell from the sky just now?"
"Well, the Houkai warheads fired from foreign warships are more corrosive than ordinary explosives, and are very efficient in breaking through Houkai energy defenses."
Hua was not a military fan, so he did not quite understand what he was saying. He asked excitedly, "So there really is an organization secretly protecting the world. Is it like the recently popular movie "Avengers" where Miss Eden sang the theme song?"
What Avengers?
Ryan didn't have time to watch a movie, but he got the meaning, but he didn't nod immediately.
The Fire Moths are indeed protecting the world in secret, but they are by no means as glorious and righteous as in the movies. The organization is full of factions, interest struggles, dirty deals, and even inconsistent ideas.
Some people want to control the world in the name of salvation, some people pursue self-salvation, there are also the theological school, the destruction newborn school, the pure-blood school, anyway, it's a mess, the young faction like the Far East branch is the simplest.
"That's about what I mean. But don't think too highly of him. I won't let you join the Fire Moth now."
Hua was stunned. This was different from what he had imagined. Logically, he shouldn't be invited by his senior brother to join the organization, and then follow him to become stronger, and finally become a member of the salvation team, just like those important supporting characters in the movies.
Of course, if given the chance, she would rather be the heroine.
"But I already know the secret, will they turn a blind eye?"
"Generally speaking, you need hypnosis to make her forget this memory." Ryan saw that the girl's expression was instantly tense, and he quickly comforted her: "But with me here, you can skip this step."
"Why? Are you the leader of Fire Moths?"
"That's not the case. There are two reasons." Ryan raised his head, looked at the gyroplane flying over and smiled coldly: "First, these bastards concealed the truth and need to give me an explanation; second, among the Fire Moths, except for a certain eccentric girl, no one is better at fighting than your brother!"
Absolute self confidence made the tension in Hua eyes disappear. Just like when he was a child, she quietly grabbed the corner of the man's clothes and watched the black rotorcraft land.
The blades turned into vertical ones, rolling up the garbage on the ground. The gyroplane soon landed outside the village. The hatch opened and a man with silver-white hair walked out.
He was nearly 1.9 meters tall, with silver hair tied into a small braid. He looked quite handsome, but there was a long and narrow scar on the bridge of his nose, which made his handsomeness look a bit more sinister.
The man looked around, looked at the two people standing still at the entrance of the village, cursed them softly, and forced a smile to greet them.
"It's a pleasure to meet you, Dr. Ryan. I've heard of you for a long time. Today I see that you are indeed extraordinary." The man walked up to her, stretched out his right hand and said, "I am Hen, the director of the combat team of the Southern Shenzhou branch."
The Fire Moths will adjust the positions according to the country where each branch is located. Ryan looked the other person up and down and realized that this person's position was similar to Himeko.
Trace? Why do I seem to have heard of it somewhere?
He thought about it for a moment and thought that it was probably just some supporting character who didn't even have any dialogue, so he didn't take it seriously and didn't say anything. He just put his hands in his pockets and looked at the other person indifferently.
With his hands covered in blood, Ryan gaze was quite murderous. Hen instinctively tensed his muscles, then awkwardly retracted his hand and continued to smile.
"I'm sorry, what we did was really not very authentic."
As the saying goes, don't hit a smiling person. Ryan also knew that this kind of middle-level person only had the job of executing orders, so he simply asked, "Is this the news revealed by the Far East Branch?"
"No, this news came directly from the headquarters. You started planning before you decided to come to Changkong."
"Her house was also arranged by you, right?" Ryan pointed at Hua behind him.
Hen glanced at the other party, who was also a bachelor: "It was a coincidence at first, but this lady was very persistent, so we did not ask the police to forcibly relocate. According to the handling procedures, there should be no permanent population within ten kilometers, and there should be troops guarding the periphery."
Hua blinked and went straight into a daze, then he remembered what Ryan meant by 'not so good'.
No wonder they just put up a circle of barbed wire and that's all, no wonder some people in the village went out to scavenge.
"Aren't you afraid of innocent people if you do this?"
Hen glanced at Hua, restrained his smile, and said seriously: "If we don't solve it, more people will die. If sacrificing a few people can save the majority, this sacrifice is worth it."
Hua opened her mouth, feeling something was wrong, but couldn't say a word. Fortunately, Ryan moved sideways half a step and blocked the girl behind him.
"I understand. You got the inspiration from the Far East Branch. To fight against the hiding Emperor-level Honkai Beast, you need a strong person to contain it and then launch firepower to cover it. Even if you can't kill it, you can at least severely injure it."
"Yes, it's a pity that this tactic cannot be promoted."
"Then why don't you look for Elysia? She should have been to Changkong."
"Miss Elysia did come to see it, but Marichi was hiding in the sea, and there was no way to deal with it. She wanted to enter the water, but I stopped her." The man shrugged and said helplessly: "The water is too complicated. Since Marichi did not show any aggressiveness, there is no need to let her take risks."
It turns out this thing bullies the weak and fears the strong.
The corner of Ryan eyes twitched. Although he pretended that he had never used his full strength, there was actually a big gap between him and Elysia. The Honkai Beast was not a high-level member of the Fire Moth, so it would not be fooled by him.
Marichi?
He kept repeating the name of Honkai Beast, and his stiff expression relaxed a lot. Since this scar stopped Elysia, he must be a member of the young faction.
Regardless of other things, this faction at least respects warriors and has pure ideas.
Hen also noticed this change and raised his right hand again.
"You should have told me."
"I'm sorry, the target might read my memory, so I have to take some risks, but you, who are as famous as Miss Elysia, really did not disappoint me."
The two men held hands tightly, Ryan smiled, and had already made up his mind.
What a great reputation! It seems the illusion I have given you over the years is enough.
It is normal for his fame to skyrocket. Half a year ago, Ryan main achievements were against lower-level Honkai beasts, which seemed special but not outstanding. It was only after Qianyu Academy that he changed his mind slightly and used Adityas life to explain many problems.
This has its pros and cons, but Ryan cannot stand still forever and hide among the crowd forever, which is also against the pioneering spirit.
"Thank you for protecting Elysia. The higher-ups have never stopped questioning her." Ryan pointed to his chest with a wry smile, "It looks like I won't have an easy time in the future."
As he finished speaking, he clearly saw anger on Hen's face, but more of it was helplessness.
"Who knows what those geniuses above are thinking. Miss Elysia is the savior sent by God, but they are on high alert. Even when she travels, there are a lot of agents following her. If it were me, I would have rebelled long ago."
"It's a pity that Elysia doesn't care. She seems to only have love and no hate. Even if she is targeted or betrayed, she will still love everything equally and powerfully."
"This is what I admire most about her. If there really is a goddess, perhaps it is her." Hen sighed and forced a smile: "So you don't have to worry, Miss Elysia is fine, they won't touch you."
This makes a lot of sense. Let's not talk about his strength for now. At least Ryan has a strong background and a good family background.
"Don't worry, as long as the brain above is not broken, Elysia will not be in trouble, and she dare not be in trouble."
The two smiled at each other. The young group was the best backing for Elysia, and it seemed that Ryan and Elysia had a good relationship. As long as these two people did not fight among themselves, there was nothing the Fire Moth could do.
"What about her?" Hen glanced at the girl behind Ryan.
"Tell them that Hua will join the Fire Chaser at an appropriate time, and will train with me before then. The reason is that the Southern Shenzhou branch took advantage of me this time."
"Okay, that makes sense." Hen nodded immediately and made a phone call gesture: "Himeko should have given you a business card. That's my number. Call me anytime."
That idiot didn't even explain clearly. she must have been drunk again.
Ryan shook his head helplessly: "Okay, I will stay in Changkong for a few days, and I will definitely visit you when I am free."
"Come anytime. Oh, by the way, there's one more thing I forgot to tell you." Having walked several steps, Hen turned around and pointed in the direction of the sea: "A big shot has come to the branch."
"who?"
"Callis, the chief of staff at headquarters."
Is it him? What a coincidence that he came to Changkong before the third Honkai?
Ryan was stunned for a moment, then nodded to indicate that he understood, stroking his chin and falling into deep thought.
The Honkai beast had fled, and the stench in the air seemed to have dissipated a little. Hua, who had no chance to interrupt, glanced at the rotorcraft taking off, and couldn't help but secretly glance at the man's profile.
The other person was in deep thought, and she did not disturb him. However, the online novel that Carol showed her flashed through her mind, and this scene seemed familiar.
My senior brother is the boss?
