Chapter 37

The person in charge turned around and saw that the people in charge of the Gale Base and the YDS Base were still there, but Shen Xingtang was missing: "Where's Boss Shen?"

The staff member next to him said, "The sand lizard is dead. The jump is not affected by space. Boss Shen drove the mecha to the contaminated area. He said he wanted to settle accounts with someone."

Person in charge: "Settlement of accounts!?"

The contaminated area was in a mess. After the jump function was not affected, the management staff who came to clean up the mess went in to check and found that all the abnormal conditions around had been alleviated after the death of the S-level sand lizard. The Tianyu Star contaminated area was originally a high-risk contaminated area. There are sandstorms and bad weather all year round. Due to the influence of the sand lizards' space enhancement, some areas in the contaminated area have experienced strong winds and other abnormal weather.

In the Star Alliance's pollutant records, pollutants that cause drastic environmental changes like this are extremely rare.

After this data was transmitted back to the Administration, the staff had to re-evaluate the spatial ability pollutants and made a new grouping of the sand lizard's spatial enhancement ability, determining that its strength was higher than that of the S-level Welwitschia, and that it was an S-level mutant pollutant.

In addition, only when we arrived at the scene did we know how widespread the impact of the energy explosion caused by KID was.

The nearby base station tower recorded the shock wave. The attack power was no less than that of the heavy weapons of the border army, and the shock wave was caused by just a few desperate mecha divisions.

"But it was burned too thoroughly..." A staff member turned over the contaminated body, "Everything was burned away, it's unrecognizable."

Another staff member was puzzled. Is this true? What a powerful energy explosion this is! There are no supernatural crystals left!

While the staff was cleaning up the mess in the contaminated area, all the mecha pilots returned to the administration for physical examinations. In this serious situation, the mecha pilots are very likely to be affected by the contaminated area. The management bureau is particularly concerned about this aspect and has specially sent several doctors over.

Zhao Lejie and Hu Luobu finished their examination early, and as soon as they went out, they heard a woman's voice coming from the treatment lounge next door.

"Oh, and then what!? That sand lizard is difficult to deal with, so just retreat. If you can't defeat it, can't you just run away? You know that kind of explosion can destroy the plane and kill people if you are not careful. I asked you to go to the contaminated area to save people! Not to let you risk your life!" Shen Xingtang stood in front of KID and the others. God knows her heart almost stopped beating when she saw the explosion. She knew that these mecha masters were usually playful, but they couldn't risk their lives!

Jiang Simiao stood by, acting as a peacemaker: "Xingtang, calm down, calm down, everyone is back, right?"

Shen Xingtang held a few mecha keys in his hand: "All the mechas are damaged? Do you know how long it took Shen Lin and I to repair your mechas? You came to the contaminated area once and it was like this. There's not much time left before the next season starts!"

Ying Chenlin was standing nearby, and upon hearing this, he stepped forward and said, “Sister Tang, it was my idea to detonate the explosion.”

"Go find a doctor next door to check your hand. I'll talk to you after I finish the account here. There is a doctor from the border army next door, you go first." Shen Xingtang pushed him back to the door, turned his head and looked at the other mecha masters standing in the room, and said, "Come on, continue talking, what did you do in the contaminated area?"

Ji Qingfeng: "What else can I do? I just did that."

Lin Yao: "He was right, so we did it."

When Ying Chenlin opened the door, he happened to see Zhao Lejie and Hu Luobu standing at the door. This work is produced by

He nodded slightly as a greeting, and then walked towards the doctor's room.

Zhao Lejie and Hu Luobu looked at each other, then turned his head to see several mecha technicians of KID standing in a row inside the room. A beautiful female boss stood in front of them, holding a newly-produced mecha damage data sheet in her hand.

Noticing the gazes of others outside, Shen Xingtang glanced over and looked at Zhao Lejie: ​​"Isn't this Deputy Captain Zhao?"

Zhao Lejie felt a chill inexplicably, "Boss Shen, Lao Hu and I are just passing by, please continue."

Shen Xingtang: "Don't leave yet. Tell your person in charge about the energy crystal. I'll go find him later."

Zhao Lejie nodded hurriedly: "I'll go and tell him right away."

At the door, Zhao Lejie and Hu Luobu walked away quickly. It was scary. Aren’t female bosses said to be very gentle? Why does boss KID have such a bad temper and scolds people so harshly! Isn't it just that the mecha is damaged? Just fix it.

After the people left, Shen Xingtang relaxed her expression. Looking at the mecha masters who were trying to get her killed, she sighed helplessly, "I can't argue with you. What should we do if something happens to you? We shouldn't take risks if we can avoid them. For the sake of that S-level pollutant...even though it is really expensive."

Lin Yao nodded like a chicken pecking at rice: "It's so close to us, it would be a pity if we can't get it."

Shen Xingtang: “…”

Shen Xingtang frowned and continued, "Two S-level supernatural crystals were found in the contaminated area of ​​Tianyu Star this time, and one of them is an S-level dual-attribute supernatural crystal. The ownership of the supernatural crystal is controversial, and I will have to hold a meeting with the other mecha division leaders later. The ownership still needs to be determined after negotiation. We are the ones who have made the greatest effort this time, and I will try my best to get both of them back."

The one about the Centenary Orchid is easy to deal with, mainly because it’s with Zhao Lejie of Jifeng, and they have no intention of competing with each other.

But for the Sand Lizard, there are too many mecha pilots involved, so a meeting will be needed to determine the ownership.

This group of guys fought hard to get the supernatural crystal, so she must fight for her life to get this dual-attribute supernatural crystal.

Ji Qingfeng asked worriedly: "Boss, do we have enough money?"

Lin Yao said: "It's not enough. We still have some harvested materials in our mecha. How about selling them to make up the points?"

Shen Xingtang turned around and asked, "Where did you get the materials? How many do you have?"

You Su replied: "I killed them while passing by, I didn't count them."

There were so many materials that even the mecha might not be able to hold them all. Later, some of them were placed on Huo Yan and Lu Xi's original mecha. They killed a wave of sand lizards and harvested them, and then killed a bunch of them using energy explosions. KID and his group diligently picked up energy crystals for an hour, and later gave up reluctantly when they saw the support mechas from the Administration coming.

As for how much they picked up, they themselves had no accurate count.

When Ying Chenlin arrived at the medical room, the border army doctors began to examine him. They already knew the condition of his prosthesis and immediately gave him a comprehensive prosthetic examination.

The steps of the examination were similar to those at the medical station. When the doctor handed him the report, Ying Chenlin asked another question: "Is it possible for the declining mental strength to recover?"

"There are precedents of mental power falling and recovering, but I have not heard of any case of recovery through surgery." The doctor said, holding his report, "There is one thing that is very strange. Your mental power is clearly A-level, but a small part of the wavelength does not seem to be A-level. It may be related to your original mental power level."

Ying Chenlin paused: "Will this have any impact?"

"It seems that there is no impact at the moment, but you still need to have regular physical examinations." The doctor saw that he still had something to ask. He was a doctor serving on the border and had seen too many mecha masters. From the moment Ying Chenlin asked, he roughly knew what these mecha masters were thinking. It was nothing more than related to mechas. He patiently said, "If you have any questions, you can speak directly. We doctors have the obligation to protect the privacy of our patients."

Ying Chenlin hesitated for a moment, and then asked: "Can a mecha pilot fly a mecha beyond his level?"

The doctor was slightly startled when he heard this, and suddenly thought of something, so he flipped through the paper.

Mental Atlas: "The medical record doesn't mention your original mental strength level. Are you a former S-class mecha master?"

Ying Chenlin did not hide anything and nodded, "Yes."

"There are indeed examples of mechas that drive beyond their level in the Border Army, and the Star Alliance has not explicitly prohibited it. As long as your mental power supply can meet the needs of mechas of different levels, then everything is possible." The doctor frowned slightly, and finally spoke: "I can only say that it is rare, but there have been one or two cases. In most cases, it fails because it simply cannot support it."

"S-class psychics are different from A-class psychics. Their control over psychic power is beyond that of ordinary psychics. Therefore, only they can support the huge psychic power waves required by S-class mechas. Ordinary A-class psychics cannot provide such psychic power supply, and the slightest mistake may cause irreparable damage to their psychic power."

The doctor looked at the boy who seemed a little weaker than other mecha pilots. He still reminded him seriously: "A-class piloting an S-class mecha, I suggest you don't try it."

Ying Chenlin only cared about the other meaning of his words: "Okay, thank you."

"You're welcome." The doctor continued, "Your situation is very special. I think you should have your own attending physician. When you go back, I suggest you get regular checkups."

Ying Chenlin finished the examination and got two prescriptions from the doctor. When he was leaving, he happened to meet You Su walking in.

He paused for a moment, and the latter easily put his arm around his shoulders and brought him in.

Ying Chenlin took a few steps back, barely able to steady himself, and then he heard You Su's voice beside him: "Don't go back yet."

"?" Ying Chenlin looked at him in confusion.

You Su let go of his shoulders and said, "Do you want to go back and be scolded by her so much, or do you want to explain why you and I sneaked into the contaminated area? Show her your mecha master certificate?"

Ying Chenlin looked at him warily, and when he saw that he did not continue to ask, he said, "This must be said."

"Being too obedient makes you easy to be bullied. She has to go to a meeting soon, so you should go back a few minutes later." You Su smiled, patted his shoulder, turned around and went inside to check.

The doctor inside didn't know what was happening at the door. When he saw You Su come in, he asked him to take off his combat uniform first.

Ying Chenlin stood at the door and quickly chose the latter between going back to see Shen Xingtang and delaying for a few more minutes. He stood there for a while, and when his eyes inadvertently swept inside, he suddenly saw a scar.

Inexplicably, Ying Chenlin took a step forward and clearly saw the huge scar on the other person's back.

You Su noticed his gaze and said, "What are you doing standing at the door? Come in if you want to see."

Ying Chenlin opened the door behind him without hesitation and left the clinic.

He wasn't interested and didn't really want to watch it.

When Zhao Lejie arrived at the rest area of ​​the Gale Base, Qi Sicheng was talking to the person in charge. Both of them looked serious, as if they were discussing something important. After he came closer, he relayed Shen Xingtang's words to the person in charge.

"Okay, I understand." The leader of Jifeng knew that this S-level dual-attribute energy crystal was very precious. Since Shen Xingtang asked Zhao Lejie to bring a message, it was obvious that he also wanted to compete for this energy crystal. In addition, the situation on Tianyu Star this time was that the reckless KID base fought hard to break the stalemate and finally got the energy crystal. The priority right of competition fell to KID, "Captain Qi, do you really want to give up the competition?"

"Well, our base didn't help much." Qi Sicheng said calmly: "Since Shen Xingtang said so, she will definitely fight for this energy crystal. There is no need for us to have a falling out with KID over this matter."

Zhao Lejie: ​​"They have used up all the energy for explosions, and they are willing to sacrifice their lives to get it. I don't think YDS will compete with them for it. The bases of other mecha divisions are too scattered, and it seems that they will not compete."

The priority is on KID, and the kill is also on KID, so it is not surprising that it is assigned to them.

It’s a pity that this is a dual-attribute supernatural crystal, which is too rare. It is indeed a pity to give it up, but they have no position to compete.

Qi Sicheng seemed to be thinking about something and continued to look at the screen on the computer.

Zhao Lejie asked: "What were you two discussing just now?"

He walked a little closer and saw some KID information recorded on Qi Sicheng's computer.

"KID's matter." Qi Sicheng asked, "How much do you know about KID's two new mecha masters?"

A new mecha master...? Zhao Lejie paused for a moment after hearing this. "The two who are driving A-class mechas? The guard is called Ying Chenlin, and the gunner's surname seems to be You. I heard Ji Qingfeng and the others call him Brother You. I don't know their specific names, but these two are very good at mecha operations."

The leader of Jifeng said, "They must be strong, otherwise Captain Qi wouldn't be interested in them. Basically, by comparison, we can know that these two should be the two foreign aid mechas of KID in the Banut pollution zone. One is good at close guards and the other is good at guns. If both of them participate in KID's competition next season, there will be more variability in the lineup."

Zhao Lejie: ​​"But Ying Chenlin's right hand is a mechanical limb. With the intensity of the league, his level can't be maintained at all."

Qi Sicheng frowned slightly, his eyes fixed on the limited information, "Are you sure there is no one named Ying Chenlin among the regiment combat mecha divisions currently in service in the Dawn Alliance? And there is also a mecha division named You."

"I have searched for people with the surname You. There are several people with the surname You in the active mecha divisions of the alliance, but they don't match him." The person in charge of Jifeng was a little worried: "I searched for Ying Chenlin from the beginning, and there is no such person at all."

Zhao Lejie was very confused when he heard this. From his own perspective, the level of KID and the other two must be professional standards. "Did you not find any mecha alliances in other star regions?"

"No." The person in charge of Jifeng said: "They are active players. How can it be so difficult for me to find them..."

"What about those who retired?" Qi Sicheng suddenly asked.

The person in charge of Jifeng: "Retired!? I didn't expect this. There are too many retired information. I will go back and sift through them carefully. But how did you suddenly think of this?"

"I think that gun looks familiar, but I don't know where I've seen it before." Qi Sicheng was puzzled. "I should know him, but I haven't fought him."

He had impressions of all the mecha masters he had fought against.

Zhao Lejie said, "If you put it that way, when I first saw him, I also thought he looked a little familiar. But a mecha master as unremarkable as KID must have left a deep impression on me."

Qi Sicheng took up the next sentence sharply and looked at the person in charge of Jifeng: "Don't limit the scope of the search to retired mecha divisions. By the way, check the active and retired individual mecha divisions of Shuguang."

Zhao Lejie was shocked when he heard this: "Do you suspect that these two people are fighting alone?"

"Nothing is impossible. If you want to check, check it carefully." Qi Sicheng's eyes stayed on the few images recorded on the optical computer. These were video data exported from his mecha recorder. "KID's next season will not be so easy. With such a lineup, their strength is definitely not just the top 16."

Zhao Lejie hesitated and said, "Boss, are you too nervous? Their mecha masters are indeed very powerful individually, but the league is a team competition after all. Their coordination ability... I don't know how to describe it, it's very chaotic."

"Whether it's chaos or coordination, we'll know after observing them." Qi Sicheng tilted his head to look at the two of them. How could such a team not have coordination when they could think of a way to deal with the S-level sand lizards in a critical moment and still be unscathed? He ordered, "Le Jie, export the video data from inside your mecha. You've had the longest contact time with them. And Brother Zhang, go negotiate with the management department and tell them that we want to retrieve the ground-based video data of the sand lizards."

The person in charge of Jifeng turned around and wanted to get busy, but suddenly thought of something, "Just before I came here, I saw the person in charge of YDS and Colin go to the control room together. Could they also want to transfer information??"

"Colin served as captain of YDS for two years and brought YDS from the last place in the top eight to the third place."

Qi Sicheng said seriously: "He likes studying his opponents more than I do."

The next season is coming soon. Only by knowing yourself and your enemy can you win every battle.

No matter how KID's lineup changes, what they need to do is to study KID thoroughly before them.

After all, fighting a league is different from dealing with pollutants, and recklessness may not always lead to victory.

-

The matter in the contaminated area of ​​Tianyu Star has come to an end. After checking, the physical signs of all the mecha operators who were on the mission were normal, and the matter has finally come to an end.

Afterwards, the issue arose of the distribution of the power crystal spoils. According to the implicit rules of the alliance, power crystals were always awarded to whoever contributed. This time, the two energy crystals involved in the distribution, the ownership of the S-level Quicksand was given to KID because the Gale Base gave it up, while the most important S-level dual-attribute energy crystal finally fell into the hands of KID's base thanks to Shen Xingtang's efforts.

Upon hearing the news, Ji Qingfeng said happily: "Yeah! Both of them have arrived with us!?"﹌

Shen Xingtang also found that this negotiation was going too smoothly. She could probably guess the reason why Jifeng gave up [S-level Quicksand]. This ability that was biased towards soft control was not useful to the Jifeng base at this stage. They were a team with a lineup that was biased towards hard control, especially the hard control centered on Qi Sicheng. Qi Sicheng could not use the Quicksand ability, so it was understandable that Jifeng gave up the fight.

But even if it was the S-level space that strengthened this energy crystal, he originally thought that the competition with Jifeng and YDS would be fierce, or those big bases would use money to make her surrender. Unexpectedly, after the meeting and discussion, the two bases did not use their advantage to snatch the energy crystal, and also agreed to KID's distribution plan. The energy crystal belonged to KID, and the rest of the consumption and remuneration would be paid by KID.

Shen Xingtang: "And Zhao Lejie doesn't need the Quicksand Energy Crystal, and he said he'll give you 4.5 million. What does that mean?"

Lin Yao: "Ah? This is——"

Before he could finish his words, Ji Qingfeng quickly covered his mouth.

Ji Qingfeng's heart bled as the 4.5 million repair fee flew away without him getting it. "It's just a small matter, boss, don't worry about it."

When the matter is over, the management bureau will deal with the aftermath of the contaminated area. KID didn't know that the other two bases had already set their sights on them. After touring the administration, several mecha warriors had nothing to do for the time being, so Jiang Simiao contacted a spaceship for them and prepared to return to Sirius.

As soon as they arrived at the spacecraft parking area, they saw a huge starship in the distance, flanked by a group of border troops wearing uniform black uniforms.

Ji Qingfeng whispered, "I heard that the border troops came to support us this time. If we hadn't caused the energy explosion, the border troops might have rushed in to sweep it up."

Lin Yao looked at the military uniforms of the group of people with envy: "I almost joined the army before, but they said I was too short and eliminated me in the first round."

At this time, the tall officer in the border army in the distance suddenly looked towards them.

KID and the others stood in awe, and soon the man came over.

Major Guo stopped not far away and saluted neatly in the direction of Huo Yan.

Ji Qingfeng and Lin Yao were stunned, watching Huo Yan and the man in military uniform talking back and forth not far ahead.

Ying Chenlin's gaze fell on that man, a member of the border army, the army that Huo Yan had served in before.

Major Guo's peripheral vision fell on Ying Chenlin and You Su who were standing in front of him, but he quickly retracted his gaze, turned around and left.

Ying Chenlin glanced at the other person with a little concern, and when he glanced sideways, he saw You Su standing next to him with a suitcase, also looking at Major Guo.

Ji Qingfeng stepped forward and asked, "Old Huo, is this someone you know?"

"Are you talking about Xiao Guo?" Huo Yan smiled, "He was an acquaintance of mine in the border army."

Xiao Guo! ?

Lin Yao was silent for a moment, then looked at Huo Yan with a gleam in his eyes: "Sure enough."

Ji Qingfeng: "Is it because of you that we came to Tianyu Star this time?"

Huo Yan was stunned: "What?"

"Why are you still here? The spaceship is waiting for you guys." Shen Xingtang dragged the suitcase over and urged the few people who were chatting to hurry up. Turning around and seeing Ying Chenlin at the back, he said, "When you get to the base, come to the maintenance room. I have something to tell you."

Ying Chenlin was slightly stunned, but still nodded.

-

Elsewhere in the administration, after other mecha divisions left, staff members conducted on-site cleanup of the contaminated area. The damaged parts needed to be reported to the Dawn Galaxy Administration to re-evaluate the contaminated area of ​​the Tianyu Star.

The person in charge was sitting in the conference room and had just spoken to the staff who had sent off the mecha division. A moment later, another staff member came in to hand in a preliminary investigation report on the contaminated area.

"Wait...what's going on!? The pollutant content dropped by 40%?!" The person in charge stood up suddenly after seeing the report. The Tianyu Star Pollution Zone was originally a competition-level pollution zone, which was only open during the league period, and the pollutant coverage rate has always been very high. Although the pollutants of the S-level sand lizards this time were concentrated due to the enhanced driving force, so many of them died at once. How could so many of them die! ?

"Ahem, Director, the energy explosion at that time involved a wide area... The surrounding pollutants were basically burned to death. Preliminary statistics show that the death toll from Class A pollutants is over 200, and the death toll from Class B and Class C pollutants is impossible to estimate because the bodies were burned." The staff kindly reminded: "Have you forgotten that there was a sudden drop in the number of pollutants due to unknown reasons before, which may be one of the reasons."

The person in charge remembered the mass death of the Golden Scorpions, which was also very outrageous. Later, when he asked the captains of the two main bases, Captain Qi and Captain Ke, they also said they were unaware of it. He became worried when looking at the data. Given the current situation, he was afraid that Tianyu Star would not be able to be used as a competition-level contaminated area within two to three years.

For some reason, thinking of this, he suddenly remembered the meaningful and apologetic smile of Boss Shen at KID base before he left, and the action of KID picking up materials at the speed of light in the battle video.

The staff member reminded: "Director? If there is no problem with this form, then I will report it?"

"No problem for now." The person in charge sighed and was about to hand the report back to the staff when he suddenly saw something: "What's going on? Forget about pollutants. Why is there an additional energy reimbursement item here? Don't tell me that the energy in the polluted area was stolen by that S-level sand lizard?"

"That's not it." The staff member explained: "The energy in one of our defense zones has been greatly reduced... It seems to have been stolen by the mecha masters."

Person in charge: “???”

The author has something to say:

See you tomorrow~
