Chapter 368 Arrival

Although Ning Xuan is still on vacation, her post is at the Second Legion headquarters, which is in a wartime state, so it is reasonable to recall the officers on vacation. After receiving the notice, Ning Xuan was a little worried about Lin Mo who returned to the Second Legion some time ago.

After Yu Mingche learned the news, he didn't care that he was still angry with Ning Xuan, and took the initiative to come over, "Master, let Yan Fuzhen go with you, he can protect your safety."

"Now that you're here, let me see if your injury has healed?" Ning Xuan pulled Yu Mingche's clothes with concern.

"I'm almost well. Thank you for your concern, Master." Yu Mingche took a step back, his refusal obvious.

Ning Xuan lowered her hand with a somewhat sad expression, "Ming Che, I really didn't mean it that day. Why are you still angry?"

Looking at Ning Xuan's expression, even though Yu Mingche knew that Ning Xuan made this expression on purpose, he still took two steps forward helplessly, "It's not that I don't let you see it, it's just that some injuries haven't healed yet, so it doesn't look good." Yu Mingche couldn't bear to see Ning Xuan sad, so he explained.

Yu Mingche and Ying Yaoshi had previously agreed to act as if they were not getting along so that those forces who had been eyeing Ning Xuan's backyard would think that they had an opportunity to take advantage of. So, when Yan Fu really wanted to stir up trouble, Yu Mingche went along with it. Only Ning Xuan, who really thought that Yu Mingche was trying to seize power, got angry.

Ning Xuan saw Yu Mingche approaching her, so she took the opportunity to put her arm around his waist, chuckled and said, "How can it not look good? No matter what, you are the most beautiful."

Before the Second Legion entered the wartime state, Yun Han received news that the Tianwei Legion was attacked, so Yun Han had already gone to the Tianwei Legion’s base. As for Lan Xin, it would take some time for the hidden injuries in her body to fully recover. Chen Nan’s strength was a little weaker, and Yu Mingche’s actual combat ability was at most on par with Ning Xuan, not to mention that he could not leave the Central Star for too long.

After looking around, Ning Xuan felt that Yan Fuzhen was the most suitable person, so she agreed to Yu Mingche's proposal.

Because it was an emergency notice, Ning Xuan quickly packed up her belongings and boarded the starship with Yan Fuzhen to the headquarters of the Second Legion.

The Second Legion’s headquarters base was not too far from the Central Star, and the starships dispatched by the base were fast enough to quickly enter the space. The originally dark space outside the porthole was shrouded in a dark red light.

In just half a day, the starship passed through a space corridor and arrived at the destination of this trip - the Second Legion Headquarters. The "V" planet where the Second Legion Headquarters was located was suspended in space, and its surface was covered with hideous scars, which were the marks left by years of attacks by alien beasts.

"Miss Ning, we're here." The major officer who was sent out to pick up Ning Xuan finally let go of the worry he had been carrying all the way when he saw the starship return safely. He stood straight as he spoke, with medals hanging on his uniform, and his actions and voice were all very respectful, leaving no room for fault.

However, Ning Xuan was very perceptive. Even though the major concealed his views well, she could still feel that he did not respect her as much as he appeared to.

Looking from space, the surface of this planet is covered with craters, and several huge rifts run across the continent like wounds. This planet is rich in resources, and even after years of mining, rare mineral deposits are still discovered from time to time.

"Ms. Ning, the headquarters base is built in the Arctic region, where there is a natural geomagnetic barrier that can interfere with the perception of alien beasts. But that place is shrouded in strong winds and fog all year round. The starship is about to descend, so please put on your windbreaker and goggles first." The major reminded.

Ning Xuan obeyed the advice and put on the goggles that the officer brought out. The starship began to descend and shook violently as it passed through the atmosphere.

Ning Xuan saw the gradually clearer details of the surface through the porthole, the ruins of abandoned cities, and the wreckage of metal buildings melted by energy weapons.

In the distance, several dazzling energy beams streaked across the sky, indicating that the battle was still going on at the front line.

"Three days ago, the Zerg suddenly appeared and broke through the three lines of defense of the outer defense system in just one day."

The major's voice was low. "The new type of Zerg soldiers can secrete a poisonous fog that can make people lose their minds and attack their own people. This poisonous fog is also contagious. This has caused heavy losses to our soldiers. I heard that Miss Ning is very good at detoxification and purification. I hope you can save them."

The major responsibly introduced the situation of the base to Ning Xuan. In fact, he did not have any hope for Ning Xuan.

In the six months before Miss Ning took leave, the level of treatment she demonstrated was very average.

The starship landed on the base's tarmac. When the hatch opened, a biting cold wind blew in. Ning Xuan tightened the collar of her outer clothes and followed the officer down the gangway with Yan Fuzhen.

The Second Legion's headquarters was built on a large scale. In the center of the base was the command tower, surrounded by armories, barracks, and research institutes, all in good order.

In order to withstand strong winds, all the buildings here are not built high. Except for the reactor and the control tower, the tallest building has only three floors.

Ning Xuan stepped off the starship. Maintenance robots and technical soldiers were busy everywhere on the ground of the base, and the harsh sound of metal welding could be heard from time to time. The air was filled with tension, and everyone was working against the clock. These were weapons and equipment that were about to go to the front line.

The major officer took Ning Xuan directly to the headquarters, which was busier inside than outside. Holographic projections flickered on both sides of the corridor, showing the real-time status of the front-line troops. Officers hurried past, and battle reports and orders kept coming from the communicator.

Ning Xuan noticed that most people were in a hurry and some had bloodshot eyes.

Under the guidance of the officer, Ning Xuan soon met the commander of the Second Corps and the commander-in-chief of the base, Yue Qingtian.

Yue Qingtian looked to be in his forties or fifties, tall and strong. When he saw Ning Xuan, the commander showed his joy, "Ms. Ning, thank you very much for coming back to the base at this time. I thank you on behalf of the wounded waiting for rescue in the medical center." His voice was a little hoarse and low, as if he had said a lot.

Ning Xuan saluted with a standard military salute, "Commander-in-chief, I am Ning Xuan, a recent graduate of the Alchemy Department of the Central Star Military Academy, reporting to you. I am ready and can start work at any time."

"Okay, Yue Feng, take Miss Ning to the medical center. Dean Lin is already waiting for her." Yue Qingtian said with some ease.

During the time when Ning Xuan was not at the Second Legion headquarters, she was at the S12 resource star. Yue Qingtian had already heard about the achievements she had made there.
