"Wait, something's wrong up ahead."
Hoshino raised his hand again to signal everyone to stop. They had successfully passed the large library area and were now on the outskirts of the ancient temple ruins. It was almost dawn.
"What's wrong?" Xiaoya asked. She was no match for Hoshino in strength or combat experience, and she didn't feel anything unusual at the moment.
Standing on the path, Hoshino set up her shield and shotgun, pointing the muzzle at the woods about a hundred meters to the left.
"Hehe~ Good morning, classmates."
Along with this sound, a figure jumped down from the tree and glided to the ground using the pair of white wings on its back.
Stepping back, bending the knees slightly, and then lifting the skirt is the standard skirt-lifting etiquette.
"Teacher, I didn't expect you to be here."
"Mika-san."
The holy garden was not yet completed, but they were still caught. Xiaoya raised her gun and aimed at the holy figure, and the latter naturally noticed her.
Unlike Xiaoya and the others who were hiding from place to place, Weihua, after finishing her work on Wenjie, relied on the intelligence from the Patel faction and rushed all the way here. However, she did not bring anyone else with her, so she was the only one here now.
"There's also a classmate named Gehenna, so teacher, did you betray me because of Gehenna?" Mika kept smiling, but this smile looked very dangerous. Before the teacher could speak, she continued to talk on her own, "Why did this scum of Gehenna appear in this world? Let me correct the mistakes of this world!"
The pink-haired figure immediately attacked, and her target was Xiaoya!
"clang!"
Mika's fist hit Hoshino's shield. At the critical moment, Hoshino helped Xiaoya block the punch, but Mika jumped up with the recoil and fired fiercely with the submachine gun in her other hand. The distance was too close, and Xiaoya had to take the bullets because she couldn't dodge in time.
It hurt, a familiar pain. Xiaoya hadn't felt this kind of pain since the millennium. However, this pain was still within her tolerance. Xiaoya gritted her teeth and fired back.
Weihua naturally had no place to dodge in mid-air, and Xiaoya's counterattack bullets hit her body. The pain did not make Weihua retreat, but instead aroused her interest.
"Hey, it's not good to ignore me, okay?"
Hoshino suddenly elbowed forward, sending Mika, who had just landed, flying. Although she felt a little awkward about the strength displayed by Mika, the moment Mika jumped up and shot at Xiaoya, Hoshino realized that Mika's combat experience was probably at the novice level.
Then, she is still confident that she can defeat Weihua.
Born from the flames of war: Chapter 14: The sprout of "lower life"
"Isn't this Mr. Wenjie? Would you like a cup of fine black tea? Produced by the Sisters' Tea Garden."
Listening to Nagisa's somewhat ironic invitation, Bunsuke felt a little bad. No, not a little, but extremely bad. Her ideals and ambitions ended before they even began. Sadly, after Mika no longer supported her, she realized that she did not have any armed force in her hands and she could not even resist.
Taking a deep breath to calm his restless heart, Wenjie replied through the two iron bars: "No, Master Nagisa."
It was just a simple reply. According to her previous personality, she would definitely retort, but now, it was meaningless. After she lost power, her administrative team would probably be dismantled soon and replaced by a bunch of crazy people from the pro-war faction. I just don't know what the future of Trinity will be.
But it was also a good opportunity for her to unload all the burdens and stay safely in the prison. The conditions in the prison were not bad anyway, and were even much better than those of some ordinary students.
......
Weihua felt very bad. The pink-haired dwarf in front of her, who was much shorter than her, was like a turtle shell. She could block almost all of her attacks, and when her gun was pointed at her, the sense of threat it exuded was not deceptive.
However, due to Mika's continuous and fierce attacks, Hoshino did not attack for the time being in order to protect everyone. Instead, Xiaoya and Baizi behind him seized the opportunity to fire a few shots from time to time. Mika's speed was not as fast as Nel, but Xiaoya could easily keep up with the other party.
"Why... Teacher, why don't you even support me?" While being beaten, Weihua kept asking such questions. The teacher didn't know how to answer, but it made Xiaoya laugh.
"Seizono-san, have you ever asked for the teacher's opinion since you imprisoned him?" From what Xiaoya knew, Mika hadn't even met with the teacher once since he was imprisoned. Even if the teacher supported her, she wouldn't have had the chance to express it. "You didn't even ask for their opinions, and you expect them to support you? Then I could scold everyone in Kivotos for not supporting me."
Xiaoya showed no mercy. Weihua's actions seemed confusing to her. She had never expressed her own thoughts or asked others, and then asked for support. What was she trying to do? Should she blame others for not being able to read their minds?
"Shut up! You scum from Gehenna! Teacher, you also want all the students of Trinity to live a good life, right?" Weihua yelled at Xiaoya viciously, then turned around and put on a gentle expression to face the teacher.
"Mika, this little...this girl wearing a hood, Gehenna, is also my student. I hope everyone can show her the most basic respect." The teacher frowned slightly, but he quickly noticed Mika's agitated mood and changed the subject. "Never mind that for now, Mika, can you tell me what you think? If it's a legitimate idea, I will support you."
With the teacher's comfort, Weihua temporarily stopped attacking, and Xiaoya did not fight back at the teacher's signal.
Weihua's emotions seemed to have stabilized a bit, and she maintained her gentle demeanor. "Teacher, our resources are limited, and it's impossible for everyone to live a good life. However, some low-level creatures still occupy limited resources under such circumstances. As long as we eliminate them, our lives will improve!"
"Low-level creatures?"
"That's right, teacher. Aren't those nasty Gehenna demons just such lowly creatures? As long as the Holy Trinity can enslave them..."
Hearing Weihua's idea, Xiaoya, the "lower creature," wasn't frightened. Instead, she felt like laughing. Weihua was going to turn all the students at Trinity into slave owners. If everyone had slaves, wouldn't that be a good time? What? What about the students at Gehenna? That's easy. Slaves aren't considered human.
Now not only the teacher frowned, but all the students present felt a little uncomfortable. Not to mention Hifumi, even the calm Hanako had a surprised expression. Perhaps she had not expected that the Patel sect's philosophy was so... weird.
"I'm sorry, Weihua, I can't support your idea. As I said before, Gehenna's classmates are also my students." The teacher sighed rarely. Weihua's expression froze immediately after receiving such an answer.
"Why, why? How could those disgusting low-level creatures become my students? No, they don't deserve it! Teacher, I will prove to you that only students of the Holy Trinity are qualified to be my students!"
Weihua said these words excitedly, then turned and left, as if she had given up on stopping the teacher. It was also possible that she knew that it was useless to simply stop the teacher like this.
"Um, Urawa-san, are all of you in Trinity like this?" Mika's words were indeed shocking. When she thought about the stereotype that "Trinity students all hate Gehenna students", Xiaoya couldn't help but ask Hanako a question.
"That's not the case. Many of my classmates may have never met a student from Gehenna, so how can there be any hatred? They are just forced to follow the crowd under the propaganda. But..." Hanako said, and immediately switched to her ambiguous expression. "Huhu... How did this student from Gehenna know my name? Could it be that you are..."
Ah, here it comes. Hanako is going to tease her again. However, Xiaoya is basically immune to this level of teasing. Moreover, she may not be without a way to counterattack: "Of course, Master Faust told me, and..."
Xiaoya suddenly raised her voice: "Teacher! Urawa-san wants to confess her love to you!"
As soon as the trump card was played, Hanako immediately lost her temper. Not only did the teacher turn to look at her, but even everyone in Abydos stared at Hanako with a hint of hostility.
Xiaoya directly distanced herself from the matter, as if the words just now were not hers.
[Hehe~ You little brat, can't I cure you?]
Hanako is indeed very aggressive, but unfortunately her defense is too low. The key to talking to her is not to let her lead you. As long as you control the rhythm in your own hands, Hanako will be easily captured.
However, Weihua's return trip would probably make the Holy Trinity fully determined to invade Gehenna. If they were all at the level of the Justice Realization Department's trash, there would be no need to be afraid, but the guards of that faction were a bit tricky.
Soon, Xiaoya's brows relaxed again. There was no point in her being anxious, as human consciousness could not directly change the objective world. What's more, the Pandemonium was bordering the Holy Trinity, so they should be the first to be anxious. The Spartacus Regiment only needed to complete the mobilization task.
Born from the Flames of War: Chapter 15 Is the Teacher the Reincarnation of a Succubus?
Riding on the construction vehicle, everyone returned to Abydos safely. Xiaoya also changed back into her previous clothes. Sure enough, clothes that fit her body shape were more comfortable to wear. Although Ayane's clothes did not affect Xiaoya's movements, they always felt a little loose on her chest, which made Xiaoya very unhappy.
"We escaped. Is Koharu okay?" Hifumi was a little worried about Koharu's situation. She also knew that if Koharu hadn't spread the news of their imprisonment, it would probably take a long time for the outside world to know about their capture.
Now that they are out, will Xiaochun be held accountable?
"Classmate Xiajiang should be fine. We escaped so smoothly along the way. It must have been intentional by the Justice Realization Department. They should have known what classmate Xiajiang was doing a long time ago." Xiaoya analyzed that the ambush they encountered along the way, except for the last one, Weihua, was as fierce as setting off a few firecrackers at them. If you hadn't told her that they were here to ambush them, Xiaoya would have thought they were there to see them off.
From this, it seems that the Ministry of Justice and the Tea Party are not actually on the same page. This is good news for Gehenna. Trinity is not united internally, and perhaps at some critical moment, the Spartacus Group can take advantage of this...
During the time in prison, the teachers and the cram school were almost isolated from the outside world. They had no idea what was happening in the outside world. The most intuitive example was the development of Abydos.
Although the staff of Abydos has not expanded, it has already caught up with the fast track of development by relying on the Spartacus Corps' import and export routes to the black market.
It was not a big deal when it was still a base area, but now the Spartacus Group controls the Fifth Campus. Nearly one-fifth of Gehena's production capacity will be exported to the black market through Abydos after meeting its own needs. At the same time, it also needs to import industrial raw materials through Abydos. With such a huge business opportunity, Abydos quickly achieved a fiscal surplus, and Red Winter is still continuously assisting the Gehena Soviet. In the foreseeable future, the production capacity of the Fifth Campus will be further expanded, and Abydos can make even more money.
The main building of Abydos was not renovated. After successfully achieving a fiscal surplus, Hoshino and his team began to maintain the infrastructure of the Abydos self-governing area. The first to be repaired was the road between the main building of Abydos, the train stop and the Abydos commercial area.
In fact, Xiaoya and the others did not interfere with the development of Abydos, so naturally they were not clear about the situation in Abydos. They only knew that some of the products of the Gehenna Soviet Academy would be bought by local residents when passing through the Abydos Self-Government Zone and transported to the Abydos Commercial District for sale, while the Countermeasures Committee supported its finances by collecting tolls and commodity taxes, so Qinxiang no longer needed to run around to work.
But this alone is not enough. After Xiaoya had a rough understanding of the situation in Abydos, she decided to help them. Just like Hongdong's comrades assisted them, they could also provide assistance to Abydos, allowing Abydos to build its own factory and then directly absorb its own market.
In this way, the Spartacus Group will not suffer any loss. After all, the black market is very large, and they don't care about the market in Abydos. Moreover, although Abydos does not have the same organization as them, it can be regarded as a friendly college now. The better Abydos develops, the greater the power it will have to speak for them in the Federal Student Union, although it does not have it yet.
Besides, it is difficult to influence Abydos this time, but can't we influence them when they recruit new students next time?
In short, helping Abydos develop is beneficial from every angle. If this cause continues for a long time, the Spartacus Corps will be one step closer to its ultimate goal of liberating the entire Kivotos.
Of course, these are things to be considered when returning to the Fifth Campus. The Spartacus Corps is not decided by Xiaoya alone. Whether or not to assist Abydos and how to assist Abydos all need to be decided through collective discussion.
"So, teacher, where are you going next? Returning to Xialai?"
Standing on the train platform, Xiaoya asked the teacher that the three people in the cram school had nowhere to go now, and Hifumi and the others also decided to go to Gehena with Xiaoya. After all, Trinity would definitely take action against Gehena later, and the people in the cram school might play an unexpected role.
As for the teacher, to be honest, the teacher's trip to the Holy Trinity was not smooth. The teacher did not do well in the task originally entrusted by Nagisa. And now it seems that the battle between the Holy Trinity and Gehenna is inevitable. The teacher thought for a while.
"I'll go to Gehenna with you."
The teacher finally made this decision. He has reported his itinerary to the Federal Student Union through Alona, but he concealed the news that he was imprisoned by Weihua. The teacher does not intend to let the Federal Student Union intervene. Weihua and the students of the Patel faction are also his students. The teacher does not want them to be isolated by the Federal Student Union, and the Federal Student Union may not be able to intervene now.
In that case, he might as well go directly to Gehenna and assist Xiaoya and the Spartacus Group in teaching those problematic students like Weihua and the Patel faction a lesson.
"Okay, teacher, I understand. Eri will definitely welcome you. It's a pity that Futaba works in Hongdong... Oh, and there are also Hina-senpai and Iori-senpai." Xiaoya counted the students she knew and didn't know. They all had a good impression of the teacher. Even if the teacher did nothing, just sitting in the fifth campus could bring them a huge morale boost. This made Xiaoya wonder if the teacher was a succubus in his previous life.
"It seems like the competition for teachers is quite fierce. Suzuki-san, do you have any ideas?"
"Me?" Xiaoya didn't expect Hanako to ask her such a question. The girl glanced at Hanako, who was smiling, and it was hard to tell what she was planning. "I don't have any feelings for the teacher... in that sense. But Urawa-san, if you want to make a move, you'd better do it sooner rather than later. You'll regret it later."
"I see, Suzuki-san is really free and easy."
"Free and easy? Maybe..."
Listening to Hanako's words, Xiaoya shook her head. She was not a free and easy person, and she didn't believe that there were any free and easy people. Society was a big net, and everyone was part of this big net.
As for love, Xiaoya is not without such feelings, but she is very busy, busy with revenge on Caesar and building a beautiful new society. Before these ideals and ambitions are realized, she does not want to think about these things.
It's time to return to Gehena. There is still a lot of work waiting for her and her comrades.
Born from the Fires of War: Chapter 16: A People United Will Never Be Defeated
"This is the old base of our Spartacus Group. We were here last time." The train stopped at Shacheng. Xiaoya got off the train with her teacher and everyone from the cram school.
Earlier on the train, the teacher had been asking about Gehenna's specific situation, and Xiaoya also described Gehenna's current fragmented situation. Gehenna's situation sounded even worse than Trinity's.
The areas controlled by Pandemonium and the Spartacus Corps were relatively safe. The former had a large market, and the annexation of the Second Campus had solved the problem of sourcing raw materials. The latter had the black market as a source of income and the direct assistance of Comrade Hongdong. However, the Emergency Committee and the Hot Spring Development Department were not so good.
Having lost their market and source of raw materials for export, their economy has fallen into depression. The Emergency Committee imposed martial law and incorporated the unemployed students into the Disciplinary Committee, temporarily stabilizing the situation. However, this cannot last long. If it drags on, they themselves will be overthrown by the unemployed citizens. Their finances have begun to shrink. Of course, taking advantage of this wave of unemployment, the Spartacus League branch there has also developed rapidly.
The situation on the Hot Spring Development Department's side was a bit strange. They didn't care about the economy at all and devoted themselves to the hot spring development work. After they took control of the third campus, Xia directly disbanded the local Disciplinary Committee and Pandemonium. These remaining personnel were incorporated into the Central District Pandemonium and the State of Emergency Committee. They relied on forcibly organizing the unemployed to join the hot spring development team, and instead prevented the third campus from being in chaos.
However, as their financial revenue decreases, Xia's model cannot last long. Therefore, this is why they are willing to negotiate with the Spartacus Group. They urgently need to restore the raw material market.
When the teacher heard that Xiaoya and the others were already in consultation with the Hot Spring Development Department and the State of Emergency Committee, his frown relaxed a little. However, the teacher asked again, "With the Holy Trinity invasion imminent, have you considered a temporary reconciliation with Pandemonium?"
The overall strength of Gehenna and Trinity was originally similar, but now after such destruction, it is bound to be inferior to Trinity. Moreover, Trinity is still a whole. How can Gehenna, which is so divided, resist the attack of Trinity?
Xiaoya simply shook her head. They had never considered a temporary reconciliation with the Pantheon. As for the reason... this was also the reason why Xiaoya asked the train to stop in Sand City. Although she had reminded the teacher long before, some things still had to be seen in person to know how dangerous they were.
"This place feels much better than the last time I came here."
"Well, it wasn't this lively the last time I was here."
Huazi and Zidong looked around. The last time they came to Shacheng was a month ago. During this period, due to Xiaoya's speech at the organization-wide meeting, the Spartacus Group strengthened its ideological propaganda and the efforts of cadres to connect with the masses.
Especially in Shacheng, as an old base, the people here have more trust in the Spartacus Corps. Now the Spartacus Corps' propaganda columns can be seen everywhere on the main roads of Shacheng, with their propaganda posters and slogans posted on them.
All propaganda was posted within the designated area. The Spartacus League was not an unscrupulous organization and they would not post propaganda materials everywhere. In fact, someone raised this issue at the organizational meeting. Later, the Spartacus League organized a survey and rejected the practice of posting propaganda materials everywhere - this would only make people feel annoyed.
In addition to publicity, many cadres also cooperate with the community to organize activities. For example, now, the five communities in Shacheng jointly organized the MomoFriends theme event, and the dolls that are popular all over Kivotos have entered the old base.
"That, that's Lord Pelolo!" Hifumi shouted excitedly as she looked at the huge Pelolo doll placed in the square. This large Pelolo doll was specially customized for the Spartacus Regiment, and it wore a Spartacus Regiment-style badge on its left chest.
It is precisely because of such activities and publicity that the masses can understand the difference between the Spartacus Group and Pandemonium, and then truly support the Spartacus Group from the bottom of their hearts.
Xiaoya smiled and looked at the crowd who were celebrating, but their goal this time was not this. In order to let the teacher understand why the Spartacus Group did not consider a temporary reconciliation with the Pandemonium, Xiaoya took everyone to the prison.
The prison is on the other side of the Sand City, and there is only this lonely building nearby. Of course, the infrastructure inside is complete, and the guards and "prisoners" here are not treated unfairly.
Now Kanna and those former Central District cadres who were fed the pills have been completely controlled. Although there are no problems with their daily actions and they can even handle official duties, they look no different from usual, but their minds have become completely loyal to Makoto.
"Look, teacher, this is why we don't consider cooperating with Pandemonium." Under the leadership of a Red Army member, Xiaomei pointed at Kanna who was saluting the TV and said to the teacher.
The TV was playing an image of Makoto. It was a press conference held by Makoto a few days ago, where he angrily denounced the actions of "certain criminals" to split Gehenna.
When Makoto talked about the exciting part, Kanna stood up excitedly and shouted "Long live Speaker Makoto".
The teacher fell silent, and Hifumi and the others in the back didn't know what to say. Although Xiaomei hadn't introduced Kanna to them, Xiaomei's attitude suggested that the student imprisoned in the cell and Xiaomei must have had a very close relationship, but now it had become like this...
Hifumi imagined that if one day her Pelora-sama doll really came to life and stood against her enemy... She didn't seem to have any enemies, but if Pelora-sama began to hate her, that would be a very uncomfortable feeling.
Putting themselves in their shoes, they also understood why the Spartacus Group did not reconcile with the Pandemonium.
"Well, there's no need to be so sad. We, the Spartacus Regiment, are no pushovers. With the support of the masses, we will defeat Pandemonium and Trinity!" Xiaoya deliberately made an exaggerated fist-pumping gesture, which actually eased the gloomy atmosphere. "Besides, we, Gehenna, are not fighting alone. We have our comrades from Hongdong, our classmates from Abydos, and you too.
"Just like we worked together to rescue our comrades from the Central District Branch last time, this time we will unite and will surely defeat this powerful enemy."
Yes, let us unite, unite all forces that can be united, and a united people will never be defeated.
Born from the Flames of War: Chapter 17: Vase Federation Student Union
The trilateral talks went relatively smoothly. Under the aggressive stance of Pandemonium, some of the terms were easily accepted by the State of Emergency Committee and the Hot Spring Development Department. Eri watched with satisfaction as representatives from both sides signed the agreement.
