"She's overthinking it."

When talking about how her brother was targeted by someone, Lu Xiaoyao felt that she would be doing herself a disservice if she didn't roll her eyes at the whole story.

"She told my brother that since they were both single, from similar backgrounds, and in similar circumstances, marriage couldn't be more suitable."

When Lu Xiaoyao spoke, she imitated the other person's imperious expression. After Lu Xiaoyao finished imitating, she immediately shook her body, indicating that she was so disgusted that she could hardly stand it.

"Who says you have to get married just because your external conditions are similar?"

Lu Xiaoyao recalled the way the other person looked at her brother; it was nothing like the adoring gaze of a young girl in love.

That was clearly a sizing-up, as if they were assessing the other party as some rare commodity, worthy of being their own high-end luxury item.

"This is too much..."

The people around didn't know what to say. Who was this person?

Hu Yue felt deep sympathy for Lu Gui's plight, but Mingmei said, "If she really had designs on your brother, why... why didn't she go to the Third Legion?"

"Huh?"

Reminded by Mingmei, Lu Xiaoyao blinked, realizing that it made sense.

Why didn't she go to the Third Army?

...

Central Star, the old residence of the Lu family.

"Has that girl from the Jian family not come to see you lately?"

Aside from the fact that the students recruited by the Sixth Legion set off relatively early, Lu Xiaoyao was already riding the waves in the game while Lu Gui was just returning from playing games at his classmate's house.

This was Lu Gui's last leisurely time before joining the legion.

"she?"

Lu Gui looked speechless for a moment, glanced at Lu Xingchen who was acting like a human with the old hag, and said quietly, "She doesn't have time, she's on her way to the legion."

"ah?"

Lu Xingchen was taken aback and asked, "She went to the Sixth Legion?"

"yes."

"Where did she go...you little brat, did you lie to me?"

"I didn't lie. I just didn't say where I was going. She found out where Lu Xiaoyao was herself. Did she think I would follow Lu Xiaoyao?"

Lu Gui glanced at his grandfather, who was sitting on the sofa browsing celebrity news, and said, "But she's a grown woman, do you think I'd just lie to her? She doesn't seem like a fool. She knows your past influence, doesn't she? She can easily figure out my plans with a little thought. Don't think of her as some kind of infatuated woman..."

Although Lu Gui had heard from Yuan Fang that the other party had gone to the Sixth Army Corps, and that Old Master Jian had even gone to the palace to sigh with His Majesty for a long time, in his opinion, the matter was not so simple.

Lu Xingchen sat there lost in thought, his browsing of the entertainment news page pausing, and after a long while, he sighed silently.

Lu Gui wasn't in a hurry. He quietly sat down next to Lu Xingchen, took a sip of the tea served by the butler robot, and waited for his grandfather to speak.

However, before Lu Xingchen could speak, Lu Gui also said, "These people think they've had enough of a peaceful life, right? They're thinking about the future before even resolving the Zerg issue?"

...

In the game, Lu Xiaoyao and her group fought as if they were holding their breath. When Sun Yunzhong was commanding, he could clearly feel that everyone seemed to be holding their breath. Even though he reminded them several times not to pursue a desperate enemy, some of them still ignored his advice and chased after them until they actually encountered a trap!

It's them!

Lu Xiaoyao immediately recognized that the core Zerg units of the opposing team were the same Zerg units that had given them a close-range kill at the start of the game!

However, the opposing team has grown from a few dozen to three hundred.

"Holy crap!!!"

When the group of 120 people saw the 300 insects swarming everywhere, someone still followed their instincts and uttered an inappropriate remark.

"My God!"

Lu Xiaoyao felt a chill run down her spine the moment she saw the Starfire Insect opposite her, and the image of the overwhelming flames flashing through her mind almost made her mood worse.

A group of pilots in mechs hadn't even had a chance to get back to their starship to rest when they looked up and saw this. Anyone would be upset in that situation!

"Is there any way?" Mingmei asked Sun Yunzhong in the chat channel.

Although she wanted to ask Mu Chen, since she and Mu Chen were indeed capable of breaking out, she now wanted to know if everyone else could get out.

"have!"

Sun Yunzhong's words shocked everyone present!

Is there really a way?

Even if all of them were piloting mechs, it would still be a one-against-three situation, but the key issue is that their mech piloting skills vary greatly.

"Yes, but not all of you will be piloting mechs." Sun Yunzhong glanced at his starship and saw that some people were already planning to pull out their mechs and fight to the death with the enemy.

But what if someone already possessed the strength to fight to the death? Would he have asked them to assist him in piloting the starship?

"I need one of you to blow up the Starfire Bugs on the other side."

The tactics Sun Yunzhong mentioned reminded Lu Xiaoyao of what happened after Waldo was bombed in the previous game.

She was also affected.

So, they now want to make that Starfire Bug explode directly in the Zerg's ranks and take away their own people.

“The method is good, but—” Mu Chen said, Su Bo raised her hand and casually shot a bullet from her finger toward the Starfire Insect. But it was blocked by a black beetle when it was only halfway there.

At this moment, everyone saw that almost all the black beetles in the entire team were surrounding the Starfire Insect, and a Thousand-Eyed Insect was hovering above the Starfire Insect's head, providing vision for the opponent and even the entire team.

Although they left gaps for the Starfire Insects to spray their bodily fluids, they simply couldn't get through them now.

At that moment, the Starfire Insect suddenly sprayed high-temperature, highly corrosive fluid towards them. Without thinking, Lu Xiaoyao rushed to the front to set up a defense. The defense was visibly melting away rapidly, and Lu Xiaoyao had no choice but to increase her power supply. Otherwise, if the defensive shield disappeared, she would be the first to suffer!

"careful!"

Mingmei suddenly appeared beside Lu Xiaoyao like a ghost, directly blocking a sickle fly that was only one-sixth the size of Jinyi.

Seeing that the opponent had just tried to sneak attack the energy storage area behind the Pink Mech, Mingmei immediately engaged the opponent in battle without hesitation!

This sickle fly's movements are even more agile than Hu Yue's portrayal of a sickle fly!

And it's not just a little bit stronger!

As Lu Xiaoyao's best friend, she knew perfectly well whether the mecha, Fen Dai, had any weaknesses. However, she simply couldn't understand how this guy had found Lu Xiaoyao's weakness!

Even when Lu Xiaoyao realized what the other person was doing, she was startled and the defensive shield she had raised almost disappeared!

Her energy reserve area is normally the strongest defensive area, but once she activates this large-scale protection, the area behind her becomes extremely vulnerable.

Grandpa had told her that the relevant improvement plan was already prepared, and all she had to do was go to the Sixth Legion and give the plan and materials to the mecha repairman.

But who knew that this hadn't been fixed yet? I almost got killed in the game!
