Kill the Dragon

# 26 Counter

Kirk, Kirk.

Okto's third engineering team was busy with handcrafting. The prosthetic arm was made by shaving dragon bones and alloys.

“You want to do finger movements with impulse? Can you fight like that? ”

Okto asked Ihan. Lee turned the screw with his mind force and fitted it into the groove. Few people can achieve this level of mind-control.

“It's possible. I've seen men fight like that. ”

Simon even manipulated both legs and arms with his mind. I fought with that body.

‘Simon did it, too. I can do it.'

Okto built a prosthetic arm based on mind-control. Thanks to this, I made a robust and lightweight prosthetic. Mechanisms for complex finger movements were not in the prosthesis. There was no way a crash could have occurred due to a simple structure.

In three days, the prosthetic arm was completed. Overlayed with synthetic fibers, I suddenly felt like I had long gloves on my neck. It's not for everyday use, so I didn't make it lighter. The color is blue, almost blue. It's similar to Arc's uniform.

“I simply embedded a blade. ”

Okto said, touching the prosthetic arm. A blade protruded from the back of my hand. Lightning was not applied. The number of self-defense or spleen was also valuable.

“I like it. I don't feel heavy. ”

Lee Han had a prosthetic arm. The contact surface was secured to the forearm and the shoulder straps were knitted together to keep them in place.

“Only the forearm bones and the blade parts are dragon bones. I made it out of plastic with my fingers. If it's heavy, it's too much of a burden. ”

“Plastics don't break well? I'm nervous..."

“The undergarments and guns you've used so far are plastic. Dude, you think there's one or two kinds of plastic? ”

Lee Han listened to Okto's pint and used his mind on his prosthetic arm. The joint was impacted. More than 10 joints were controlled to reproduce the same movement as the actual finger.

‘It's not possible to control consciously. It's impossible to use this consciously. You have to use your mind unconsciously as if you were using your real arms and legs. like airbeats. "

The reinforcements use the airbeats as their hands and feet. The reaction rate is much faster when impacting the airbit than other objects. Handcrafting requires repetitive proficiency.

Queek.

Yihan grabbed the glass of water with his left arm and lost it. I grabbed the glass of water falling from my right hand.

“Tsk, would you just do it like Red? ”

Okto shakes his legs. Lee Han's movements seemed uneasy.

“No, I'll get used to it. Thank you, Okto. ”

Lee put on his top again. When I put on my clothes, I could barely find a veil of prosthetics. Lee came out. When I got up, I felt the weight of the prosthetic arm. Your gait is slightly uncomfortable because your arm is in different balance, but you quickly walk away as if you were a balanced reinforcement soldier.

‘Focus on rehabilitation until the Arc situation is resolved. ’

Commander Jurgen's ideals have been officially announced. It's a little different from the truth, but it's true that the return of the Jurgen is impossible. Arc has been with Commander Jurgen for nearly 20 years. The pillar has now fallen. A new pillar was needed.

‘The Ark crew would like to treat Sergeant Red as a commander, but Sergeant Red and Colonel Tobias think differently. ’

Colonel Tobias wanted to be a commander himself. He came here to consume the arc completely. Sergeant Red, on the other hand, felt himself inadequate to become a commander and had no desire for power.

‘Sergeant Red is not fit to be a Commander. Like you helped me this time, I follow emotion rather than reason in a really important choice. Just like in Oracle. ’

Lee had continued rehabilitation training. After three days, he chopped his chopsticks with his prosthetic arm. It was a natural control.

The confused arc was determined to be a temporary replacement for Colonel Tobias' commander. It was a choice to consider refusal and public opinion. As a temporary agent, it was meant to be replaceable when the right person appeared. If he had been officially commander, there would have been many objections.

‘But there's no way Colonel Tobias is going to give up his command. It's temporary, but it won't back down on its own. ’

Arc was more complicated than the Citadel. The Citadel is an organization that is completely controlled by Omega-1. However, there are several classes of arcs. It was unstable as many opinions and groups coexisted.

Cheers.

Lee's visit was held. Knut is here. It's the first time I've seen your face since the battle. Knut avoided this and did not touch Knut first. I wanted to give Knut time to sort things out.

“What's going on? ”

Lee said comfortably. Knut flinches, avoiding his eyes.

“Hit me. ”

“Why would I? ”

“Because I was wrong, hit me until your insides cool. I'm not going to use the healing factor until that wound heals. There's no way to apologize other than this... ”

Knut looks at Lee's left arm.

‘It's like losing an arm because of me. ’

Knut was overwhelmed with guilt. How many times did I want to die? Even if I reveal the Commander's identity, my mind is not at ease. At this rate, I could not face Lee Han forever.

“I don't get anything from hitting you. It only hurts my fist. ”

Lee said cynically. Knut's expression stiffens.

“I'm sorry, hahn. I should have trusted you to the end... ”

Lee scratched his head. He also wondered whether to blame Knut. If I didn't have a grudge against Knut, I'd be lying. He lost his arm and almost died. Ordinary people would have remained as archaeological supporters.

“I would have believed you. Knut.”

Lee said sharply. Knut closes his eyes tightly and opens.

“Of course.”

“But you're not me. I don't blame you anymore. I mean, no, we have to move forward. Knute. There's no time to stop or hesitate. Why would I save you instead of running away? I don't hate him enough to kill him. So forget the trivia. We have more important things to do. ”

Knut's expression brightens. I smiled lightly.

“Then you don't have to apologize anymore? Is this OK?”

Knut says. Lee nods and answers.

“Knute, come one step closer. I have a new prosthetic arm to test. ”

Lee called Knut. Knut tilts his head and takes a step forward. At that moment, Lee stood up like lightning and grabbed his fist with his left arm.

Kwa-jik!

Yihan's fist punched through Knut's temple like a punch. Knut stumbles and falls. It was freezing in my head.

“You said you wouldn't hit me... ”

Knut shakes his head and mutters.

“Come to think of it, you need to hit one. ”

Lee Han reached out his hand. Knut stands up, holding his hand.

Lee Hwan, who recovered to some extent, attended the meeting of Arc. The commander was the first meeting held since the change. The biggest topic was still the information Lee Han brought.

“You can use this spear to find the current Silver Hive and stab it. ”

Colonel Tobias said, I stepped up to the commander's position, but I was still dressed. I couldn't even afford to fit into my new outfit.

There was a single dragon spear in the statue. A spear made of fangs from a former Silver Hive. It's the only way to end a war. If the Silver Hive is not revived, humanity will be defeated no matter how powerless it is.

“We need the power of the Silver Hive to stop the resurrection. ”

Lee replied, "There is no way to prove if what he says is true. But the arc decided to trust him no more than to doubt him. Humanity, including the arc, has been weary of war for a long time. You can't see the end of the war no matter how hard you fight. If there is a way to end the war, they are willing to do anything.

“It's hard to find the current Silver Hive. Even if we use our network, we don't know when we'll find it. ”

“We can merge it with the Citadel's network. ”

Lee quickly replied. The atmosphere of the conference room changed badly.

“Even if we accept it, do you think the Citadel will accept it? They'll never work with us. ”

Colonel Tobias said,

“If I go, he'll take it. Citadel is not an idiot. Everything you want to end the war is the same. If there's a specific way to end a war, the Citadel will cooperate. ”

Lee continued to speak decisively.

“And the Citadel will beat his back again. ”

Another executive said. There were those who cooperated.

“Are you going to choose to die together because you're afraid you'll get your head kicked? Are we all just cowards here? ”

Lee said aggressively.

“There's definitely a point to what you're saying. In the end, we have to stick together. If you acted separately and were individually defeated.... It's hilarious. ”

Lee was briefly moxed. He raises his head.

“Kuro of Citadel has managed to absorb the dragon's psychic core. Did you know about this? ”

The meeting leader was noisy. Lee smiled bitterly.

‘Arc's network is no different than the Citadel's. There's a lot you don't know about each other. They didn't plant any spies on each other. ’

If you planted a spy in the Citadel, you wouldn't be aware of Kuro's transformation.

“Amazing. I've had psychic core transplants before. All the subjects died from exposure. ”

The executive in glasses said. It seemed to be related to scientific research.

“I bet it's hard for all these bikers to beat one Kuro. But I can. My anti-psychic abilities can invalidate Kuro. If the Citadel betrays us first... I will fight for Arc. On the other hand, if I don't stop Kuro, no one on the arc will stop Kuro. ”

“Is it true Kuro absorbed the psychic core? I can't believe it.”

“The last time I saw you, you had the psychic power of four dragons.

I was busy talking at the meeting hall. It was an emergency if Kuro had truly become a cycle that surpassed the dragon. It's like a dragon fighting with a psychoframe. Who dares to stop…. Fear rose over the executives' faces.

Lee's anti-psychic abilities have already been demonstrated in the lab. The user locks out the target's psychic ability. It was an ‘invalidation’ of a different concept than psychic neutralization. No matter how big the gap between psychic powers is, Lee can fight equally.

“Arrogant. You want to be a mediator? ”

“If we need to survive, we will. ”

Lee decided to be arrogant. There was nothing to be gained by staying down. I had to use all the cards to suppress Arc and Citadel. We must gather them and fight the dragon.

“If Kuro really is in the position of a dragon class sicker.... We have no choice but to wield you. ”

Colonel Tobias frowns. He doesn't know Kuro very well. But I know you're a remarkable biker. A reinforcement soldier with abnormal psychic abilities, among many sickers. By the time I left the arc, I was already too powerful to grade.

“If you're worried about that, you can hold on to it until you're in the deep sea, and then you can die hand-in-hand. ”

Lee said coldly.

‘If we choose destruction like this, it is our destiny. But these people aren't so stupid either. They've survived enough for what they've done. ’

Colonel Tobias has declared a 10-minute break. Lee went out of the conference room. I sat on the bench drinking water. Sergeant Red looks over and moves with the other executives. Sergeant Red is Arc's second. It was possible to make comments that had a big impact on the decision.

‘They will cooperate. It's the only way. ’

Lee Han was indifferent. He still looked at the stranger's left hand. I often felt a foreign body.
