V2/Chapter 65: How much did you say?
When the core appeared in front of the two people, the identity of the body became self-evident.
However, out of a rigorous scientific research attitude, Dr. Mei still removed the crystal from Vill-V's robotic arm. The armor on her arm opened like an umbrella, and then the instrument revealed inside performed a basic scan of the crystal.
"Although the energy frequency and crystal capacity are far inferior to the previous Herrscher core, the properties are the same."
Dr. Mei came to a conclusion, but her tone was still full of doubt, "This is indeed the Herrscher core, so this person is the Herrscher?"
"How can there be such a weak Herrscher?"
The confusion in Vill-V's tone was no less than that of Dr. Mei. "How could a Herrscher of this level possibly cause a Great Eruption of this magnitude? The scale of the Ninth Great Eruption is nearly twice that of the Seventh Great Eruption!"
Based on the research that the Fire Moth has been conducting, it can be determined that the strength of the Herrscher itself is proportional to the scale of the Great Eruption. The higher the energy peak of the Great Eruption and the larger the scale, the stronger the Herrscher will be.
The most destructive Herrscher known to date is the Seventh Herrscher, and it took her only seven days to reduce the entire Australian continent to scorched earth. According to this theory, the Ninth Herrscher would not even need half the time to destroy the entire Australian continent.
By the way, the scale of the Eighth Great Eruption actually exceeded that of the Seventh Great Eruption. It was a pity that the Eighth Herrscher was not good at frontal combat and was captured by Ai Yue less than 48 hours after her birth. She did not show her due strength at all, so she was not counted.
But no matter what, the strength of the Herrscher born in the Ninth Great Eruption would never be limited to this level.
"And if this person is a Herrscher, then how could the officer on Elysia's side be one?"
Dr. Mei also raised a question, "It can't be that both of them are Herrschers, right?"
"Who knows? It would be normal if there were more Herrschers of this level."
Vill-V suddenly laughed, "So, could it be that the Herrscher is going the quantitative route this time?"
Soon, the fusion warriors of Elysia's team also brought over the officer's body, and Elysia herself went directly to the shelter for inspection.
And in this body, the two people found another Herrscher core.
"Did I really hit the nail on the head?"
Vill-V covered her mouth with an incredible look on her face, "Is there something wrong with my mouth today?"
"What's so surprising? Wasn't it expected before?"
Dr. Mei glared at her unhappily, "Put out your equipment. It's time to get to work."
After a brief discussion, the two casually called this existence, whose numerical values were far inferior to those of a Herrscher but possessed the core of a Herrscher, a "quasi-Herrscher."
"What are you going to do?"
Vill-V began to take things out of the waist bag on her back. "Why don't you give it to me? I'll see if I can use it to power my new invention."
"I just tried it. Activating one of the Herrscher cores caused a reaction in the other Herrscher core. This has never happened with any of the previous Herrscher cores."
Dr. Mei explained, "If there is more than one 'quasi-Herrscher' hiding in Mu Continent, perhaps this method can be used to try to locate them."
"That's really worth a try."
Vill-V also perked up after hearing this. "Tell me in detail, I'll see where to start... Humph, I must get ahead of Ai Yue this time!"
Although she had long realized that she could never compare to Ai Yue, Vill-V never admitted this fact. No matter what happened, she would always declare that she would beat Ai Yue.
Ai Yue had no objection to this - after all, most of the time he was completely unaware of it.
But this time, just as the two were about to take action, the communication inside Dr. Mei's armor was once again awakened: "Hello? Dr. Mei, how are you doing over there?"
Dr. Mei was immediately delighted, but Vill-V, on the other hand, had an expression that said "my job is about to be taken away."
"Ai Yue? Are you okay over there?"
Dr. Mei selected the video mode so that she could see what was happening over there with Ai Yue, but then her expression turned serious. "Wait, you were… attacked by a missile?"
After sharing the vision of Ai Yue's armor, Dr. Mei saw that the ground on Ai Yue's side was littered with drone wreckage, and thick smoke could be seen rising into the sky not far away. It was obviously a scene that would only occur after an attack.
"Nothing, just five nuclear bombs, it's been dealt with."
Ai Yue said casually, "Also, I have already dealt with the Ninth Herrscher, but I guess there should be a new Herrscher over there, right?"
"The Ninth Herrscher has been dealt with?"
Dr. Mei subconsciously glanced at the remains and the Herrscher core placed in front of her, "What do you know?"
"I know that many Herrschers suddenly appeared, but their strength is very weak, even comparable to the second batch of fusion warriors."
Ai Yue has now arrived at the Light Star Experimental Base. "Just now, with Rose's remote command, I caught the people who launched the nuclear bomb to attack me. Guess how many there are?"
"There are only a few people who have access to the nuclear missile launch codes, but it is not that easy to launch a nuclear missile successfully. The entire operation system needs support from others."
Dr. Mei pondered, "Ten?"
"Three."
Ai Yue said something she had never expected, "A senior officer who holds the key to the relevant system, and a soldier who is on the other side of the earth and blew up the control center, preventing the last possible chance to terminate the launch."
"How are they connected?!"
Dr. Mei asked subconsciously, and then looked at the Herrscher Core in front of her, "You mean, they have a way to communicate across physical distances, right?"
"Quantum entanglement?"
Vill-V on the side also reacted, "From this angle, we can determine their location, right?"
"It's not necessary to go through so much trouble. I asked Rose to monitor the global network. We can determine their location based on their past experiences and current whereabouts."
Ai Yue has already arrived at the main control room. "It's just that the number may be a bit large, and it will be troublesome to handle."
"No wonder Rose said she couldn't spare the time."
Vill-V nodded, "But, have you been aware of this for a long time?"
"Not really. In fact, I wasn't sure at the beginning. I was just taking precautions to pave the way for the 'stage plan'."
Ai Yue raised his head again and looked at Prometheus, who had borrowed Quinn's host: "Rose, are the results of the investigation out?"
"The screening is still ongoing,"
Prometheus responded, "Currently, more than 3,329 suspicious persons have been identified. Do you want to retrieve the relevant files?"
"...ah?"
