Qi Tongda answered without hesitation, "Everyone who arrived before me will have a share."
Tu Ran frowned and asked, "Who arrived after you?"
"Ding Naiqing, Yao Bei, and Li Wenchuan," Qi Tongda counted on his fingers, "Just the three of them."
"Ding Naiqing? He's here too?" Tu Ran was a little surprised and turned her head to look forward. In front of her, there were rows of giant mechas. Each mecha was surrounded by twenty or thirty people. Some were standing on the ground, and some were suspended in the air by ropes hanging from the roof of the factory. Everyone was repairing the mechas.
"He's in front, I'll go call him." Qi Tongda pointed forward and ran quickly to find Ding Naiqing.
After a while, Ding Naiqing followed Qi Tongda back.
As soon as he saw Tu Ran, Ding Naiqing's dim eyes lit up. He strode over, hugged Tu Ran's shoulders, and happily picked her up and spun around.
Tu Ran didn't expect him to do this. Before she could react, she was suddenly lifted up.
"Sister Ran, great, I finally meet you."
He had forgotten the last time they had met.
Tu Ran was forced to endure the spinning in circles: “…” This shameful posture.
Qi Tongda watched the interaction between the two, his face looking as ugly as if he had eaten shit. The scene was so shocking that he covered his eyes and turned his head away.
"Put me down."
Tu Ran squeezed out four words from between her teeth, resisting the urge to push Ding Naiqing away with a punch. She was afraid that she would not be able to control her strength and punch him to death.
Ding Naiqing was still very perceptive and quickly put Tu Ran down, "Sister Ran, I'm just a little excited to see you in this world, don't mind it."
Tu Ran stared at him.
No, she does mind.
Ding Naiqing squeezed out two tears, raised her hand to wipe them, looked at Tu Ran pitifully and said: "I knew Sister Ran would come to find me. Sister Ran, you are really my biological sister. No, even a biological sister can't do this. You are simply my second parent."
Tu Ran: "...That's not necessary."
Ding Naiqing was still sniffing, and was extremely grateful. "When we return to the Federation, I will definitely wander around with Sister Ran. I will definitely stand firmly by Sister Ran's side, even if I am wanted, I will not..."
Tu Ran raised her hand to stop him from speaking.
At the same time, try your best to forget what just happened.
He turned and walked towards the minister who had been standing there in a daze, took out a piece of paper from his pocket and handed it to him.
"This is what Chief Ye meant. The people I selected from the manufacturing department can leave directly with me."
Although the minister was surprised that this was a handwritten paper order, he still read the contents of the paper carefully to make sure that it was written by Ye Hongci himself. He raised his head and looked at Tu Ran, then glanced at the two people standing behind Tu Ran, and made way for them. "Then you can go."
"My Young Master Qi is finally leaving this place." Qi Tongda jumped three feet high, and without caring that his leader was still standing here, he took off the protective gloves on his hands, threw them on the ground, stepped over the gloves and walked out first.
Tu Ran didn't say anything and followed him away. Ding Naiqing followed immediately. Only Zhou Ming remained there, half sitting on the ground, watching them leave.
Zhou Ming gnashed his teeth in anger. Did he think that he couldn't leave without him? Just wait, when the door appears, he will definitely be able to leave. How can such a broken place trap him? ! The day after taking Ding Naiqing and Qi Tongda away, Tu Ran felt the energy fluctuations of the door. Tu Ran immediately took the two of them and walked according to the guidance of the "sense of direction".
The three of them stopped at a dilapidated residential building.
Half of the six-story residential building collapsed, and the remaining half was still tilted and covered with cracks. Only one wall was still intact.
The energy fluctuations on the wall were faintly visible. It was undoubtedly a door.
Qi Tongda's face lit up with joy and he looked at Tu Ran.
"You also contributed to the young master's leaving this place this time. When we return to the Federation, I will give you a luxury car." He waved his hand and said generously.
After saying that, he almost couldn't wait to jump into the vortex of energy fluctuations.
Tu Ran raised her hand and dropped it.
She actually wanted to tell him not to be happy so early, because the other side of the door might not be the Federation.
It’s a pity that Qi Tongda can no longer hear. He should have gone to another world now. Only he knows whether it is the Federation or not.
A sound of uniform footsteps came from behind.
Tu Ran withdrew his gaze and looked behind him.
A fully armed team surrounded this side, and the leader was Tang Ying.
Tu Ran turned his back to the door, crossed his arms, and looked at Tang Ying. "I just got here and you came here fully armed. Have you been following me these days?"
Tang Ying stood at the front, wearing a military uniform and a military cap, dressed neatly, with no expression on his face, and his voice was still cold: "Don't think too much, I just brought people here to study the 'door', just go on your way."
Tu Ran glanced at the group of fully armed humans behind her and suddenly realized something, "You want to go in?"
Tang Ying said nothing, but her meaning was very clear.
Tu Ran lowered his hands and looked at her, "You are letting them die."
"We can't just sit and wait for death in the Harnden Galaxy." Tang Ying said firmly, "This is also a decision made by the commander after careful consideration. There are already exotic beasts in the Harnden Galaxy. We can't just sit and wait for another enemy to come."
Tu Ran's voice paused, and her eyes swept over the soldiers behind Tang Ying. Each of them was wearing the most sophisticated equipment in the Harnden galaxy, with a determination to die on their faces.
The Harnden Galaxy has been busy dealing with alien beasts for nearly a decade. All of its scientific research directions are aimed at alien beasts and mechas, and no effort has been put into its own military equipment. At first glance, these people's equipment is nothing special and just ordinary.
If someone here went to the Federation, with the strength of just a few of them, they would be subdued by the Federal guards standing outside the threshold in minutes.
Ding Naiqing, who was standing beside Tu Ran, stood up and looked at the people in front of him who were not familiar to him. The people in this world were very friendly to him, and he wanted to remind them.
"In the past twenty years, the Federation has lost 160,000 people in the exploration of Threshold. This is just to explore a world where lower animals exist. Now you have to face thousands of worlds. You few are not enough to die."
Tu Ran added, "If you rashly go to other worlds like this, it will be easier to expose the Harnden Galaxy. The Federation already has memory readers. As long as they catch one of you, they can learn about the Harnden Galaxy through your memories. This is actually a risk."
"From the moment the Harnden Galaxy let you go, the information about the Harnden Galaxy has been exposed," Tang Ying took a step closer and forced out a very official smile. "The Harnden Galaxy has appreciated your kindness. I thank you on behalf of the commander, but we have made up our minds. You don't have to waste your breath."
