Chapter 706: Commission and Cost

Inside the Fraxinus, Kannazuki Kyouhei looked at Itsuka Kotori before him with a serious expression.

"Commander, I think we may have run into big trouble."

"What is it?" Looking at Kannazuki Kyouhei's demeanor, Itsuka Kotori asked.

"This is some information we have investigated so far." Kannazuki Kyouhei placed the documents in his hand in front of Itsuka Kotori.

"There is more than one satellite appearing in orbit?" After seeing this news, Itsuka Kotori's pupils could not help but constrict.

After several clashes with DEM Industries during this period, Ratatoskr had also strengthened its investigation into the various actions of DEM Industries, and it was during these investigations that they detected an operation within DEM Industries called the Falling Project. After paying a certain price, they managed to find out some content regarding this plan, but the specific situation was not very clear.

"By the way, Commander, look at this place!" Kannazuki Kyouhei took out several photos. "These are pictures taken after we spent some cost to mobilize some of the satellites above Tengu City."

"These are?" Upon seeing these pictures, Itsuka Kotori's brows knitted together instantly. "These are... DEM Industries' Strongest Demolition Formula? Do all these satellites have them?"

"Yes, these satellites all possess this Technique. If all these Techniques were to erupt, the power would be equivalent to a strategic nuclear weapon." Kannazuki Kyouhei's expression was somewhat grave.

"Equivalent to a strategic nuclear weapon?" Itsuka Kotori stood up abruptly. "You aren't joking, are you?"

"Although I would very much like to say this is a joke, unfortunately, this is not a joke," Kannazuki Kyouhei said.

"It seems we have to go find Lingyun again. Just as Lingyun said before, it is absolutely impossible for them to have only this one preparation; if we can join forces with them, this matter will be much easier," Itsuka Kotori said. "Also, our Fraxinus needs an upgrade. I feel that when facing DEM Industries' airship, our combat power is already insufficient!"

"Understood, we will go prepare right away!" Kannazuki Kyouhei said.

"Daddy, Natsumi-chan doesn't have a place to stay yet. I want to let her stay here, is that okay?" Yui pulled on Natsumi and said crisply to Lingyun.

"Stay here?" There was a hint of surprise in Lingyun's tone.

He remembered that Yui and Natsumi probably hadn't known each other for very long, yet she had already brought her home just like that?

"Um, Mr. Lingyun, I wonder if it would be convenient for you?" Natsumi asked somewhat bashfully.

However, what surprised Lingyun the most was that the current Natsumi was actually appearing before him in the state of a child. One must know that a while ago, Natsumi had always appeared before Lingyun in her disguised adult form. But now, to appear in the Mysterious Shop in this state, it seems she has accepted the existence of everyone in the Mysterious Shop. Of course, the vast majority of this was Yui's credit.

"If Natsumi really wants to stay here, I naturally welcome it," Lingyun said with a smile.

"Great! Daddy, can I be in the same room as Natsumi-chan?" Yui cheered and threw herself directly onto Lingyun.

"Of course," Lingyun nodded with a smile.

"Ding-a-ling—"

At this moment, the doorbell rang once again.

"Daddy, I'm going to take Natsumi to see my room first." Upon hearing the doorbell, Yui took Natsumi's small hand and said to Lingyun.

"Go ahead," Lingyun nodded with a smile.

Yui pulled Natsumi away in a flash. Lingyun waved his hand, the shop's door opened, and Itsuka Kotori stepped in from outside.

"Kotori, you came here to find me, is there some new situation again?" Lingyun asked.

"That's right, I came here this time for a commission," Itsuka Kotori said.

"A commission, interesting." Lingyun narrowed his eyes. "I wonder what Commander Itsuka's commission is this time?"

Hearing Lingyun address her as Commander Itsuka, Itsuka Kotori's expression also became serious: "My commission this time is to hope that you, Mr. Lingyun, can assist us in completing a space operation to destroy that group of lunatics at DEM Industries' satellite Falling Project."

"It seems your Ratatoskr has already scouted out quite a bit of news!" Lingyun waved his hand casually, and a light screen appeared before Itsuka Kotori.

"This is? A scene in space?" When Itsuka Kotori saw this, she couldn't help but widen her eyes. "How did you get this?"

"Isn't it fine to just borrow a satellite in space?" Lingyun said with a smile.

"Borrow?"

Itsuka Kotori's eye twitched. Lingyun's situation was nowhere near borrowing; it was clearly a forced requisition! Moreover, where did this ability to project into thin air without any instruments come from?

"Look at this!" Lingyun waved his hands, the image on the light screen flickered constantly, and finally, a region of space appeared before Itsuka Kotori.

"This is... DEM Industries' airship?" As soon as Itsuka Kotori saw the ferocious appearance of the airship on the light screen, she couldn't help but speak.

"So, even if you want to go to space to intercept those falling satellites at that time, you will be sniped by them. Do you understand?" Lingyun reminded.

"I understand. At that time, we will leave this airship to be dealt with by us. As for the satellites, can I trouble you, Mr. Lingyun?" Itsuka Kotori asked.

"This is not a difficult matter, but do you think you can afford the price of this commission?" Lingyun asked.

"What price?" Itsuka Kotori asked.

"I want all of Ratatoskr's current Realizer technology," Lingyun said.

"This..." Hearing Lingyun's words, Itsuka Kotori couldn't help but hesitate.

"You might not be able to make the call on this matter, but the person behind you should be able to," Lingyun said. "Perhaps you can go back and discuss it with them, and come find me after you have a final result."

"No, I think I can make the call on this matter," Itsuka Kotori said.

"Oh, it seems the person behind you really has given you quite a bit of authority!" Lingyun said with a smile. "Then, when do you plan to set off?"

"Tomorrow."

"Good, I will come find you tomorrow," Lingyun said.

After Itsuka Kotori left, Tokisaki Kurumi walked out from behind Lingyun. She asked Lingyun with some confusion: "Lingyun, what do you want Ratatoskr's Realizer technology for? This kind of thing doesn't have much use for us, right?"

"It might not have much use for us, but for those children, the use is very great. You have to know, Ratatoskr's Realizer technology is extremely powerful in terms of building restoration. Those children who love to experiment have already blown up I don't know how many laboratories because of their experiments. With this technology, they won't have to worry about laboratory matters anymore."

"Uh, so you asked Kotori for Ratatoskr's Realizer technology just to build houses?" Tokisaki Kurumi was stunned.

"Perhaps," Lingyun stood up and said slowly. "Besides, if we don't ask for anything, or ask for too little, how would the people at Ratatoskr feel at ease cooperating with us?"
