When Mingmei returned to the ground, she found that air raid shelters had been raised again.
However, this time the protective net is very low to the ground, with a straight-line height of no more than 100 meters. Larger mechs or starships cannot fly close to the ground.
This is practically no different from having a protective layer stuck to your scalp.
Even Mingmei was embarrassed to say what their purpose was in this whole thing.
Isn't this just "courting death"?
To completely trap oneself inside.
Mingmei looked at the sky, which had darkened due to the encirclement of the Zerg, and saw that the Zerg had not taken any further steps after surrounding them. She frowned slightly, feeling that something was amiss.
However, while we can think about it, we must not neglect any of the tasks that need to be done.
After leaving her mecha, Mingmei followed the trail left by Lu Xiaoyao and searched for her.
Even if she blocked the subsequent attacks for Lu Xiaoyao, she didn't know what would happen to Lu Xiaoyao after falling from such a height.
Following the trail, Mingmei saw the huge crater created by Fendai, but the mecha was no longer visible.
Mingmei turned and went to the area where the mecha was being repaired. Sure enough, she spotted Lu Xiaoyao and the others at a glance.
Standing beside Lu Xiaoyao were not only Lu Xiaoyao, but also Lu Gui, who came to see and care for her, and Julian, who always stood behind Lu Xiaoyao.
It turns out that Julian, who had been absent all along, had forced Pinky to make an emergency landing the moment Lu Xiaoyao fell.
What Mingmei thought was a huge crater created by Fendai was actually caused by Julian's Deep Sea Dream, which cushioned Fendai's fall.
They rescued the person.
Julian's behavior slightly changed Lu Gui's attitude towards him, but when he looked up and saw Chen An watching the three of them from not far away, Lu Gui's expression turned even more unpleasant.
Mingmei also noticed Chen An not far away.
While Lu Xiaoyao and Lu Gui were beaming with joy, Chen An was truly miserable and heartbroken.
The way he looked at Lu Xiaoyao now was so bright and indescribable; it was like seeing a femme fatale questioning her own wise and mighty emperor.
Hmm, that doesn't seem right either.
After all, the way Chen An looked at Julian was not the way a subject looked at an emperor.
It's more like watching a landlord's foolish son?
Considering Julian's identity, Mingmei could understand Chen An's expression. Fortunately, Julian was able to hold back until the end this time. If he hadn't been able to hold back and appeared on the battlefield from the beginning, and the Zerg had recognized him, Chen An would probably have gone crazy.
Chen An was certain that if Julian hadn't simply stayed by Lu Xiaoyao's side this time, but instead had piloted his mecha to participate in the battle, he would have personally dragged Julian back.
He didn't want Julian to get into any trouble with Louis's mech; a person dying would have the same effect as losing face in public.
If Julian heard what the other person was thinking, he would have to sigh and say, "No wonder Secretary Joan said he was his father's number one die-hard fan."
Lu Xiaoyao was completely oblivious. She now had Julian's backing and could even act cute with her brother in public. She was a true winner in life!
"Are you all alright?" Mingmei stared at the group of people standing there in an awkward atmosphere for a long time before finally mustering her courage to approach them and start a conversation.
Lu Xiaoyao was very happy to see Mingmei and asked her how she was doing, whether she had been attacked or something.
Mingmei is perfectly fine, except her mecha needs repairs again _(：3」∠)_
When the mecha needed repairs, Lu Xiaoyao showed a look of complete agreement.
"Yeah, it's such a waste of mechs!"
Lu Xiaoyao had originally complained that, as far as she knew, the Sixth Legion's military budget, plus their own "side businesses," should be one of the wealthier legions.
When Hu Yue told me that they were so poor that they "barely made a living" by robbing space pirates, I thought it was just polite talk. Later I found out that maintaining the mecha starship really cost money!
Especially after she had to fix her makeup twice, Lu Xiaoyao felt a sense of collapse as she looked at the bill, as if she had returned to the state of JF overnight.
The difference between a rich woman and a poor woman is simply the distance between them, which is equivalent to repairing two mechs.
"It was alright. We didn't fight much in the early stages, but then it suddenly collapsed unexpectedly. Although we received orders that the enemy was attacking, the next order to retreat was less than a minute away."
Mingmei thought for a moment and brought up what had just happened. There were many people here now, either resting or repairing mechs or starships, making it a good time to exchange information.
"Ah, who says otherwise? I was delivering energy-boosting potions to the front lines at the time..."
Hearing Mingmei's sigh, Lu Xiaoyao also breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I didn't expect things to turn out so quickly. I only received orders to go up and deliver mental replenishment potions to everyone, but I never expected that as soon as I went up there, a series of attacks would occur on the other side."
Lu Xiaoyao still shudders when she thinks about that scene.
As the surrounding mechs and starships flashed by in a white light, explosions followed one after another.
So many mechs and starships exploded around her. Yet she could only save a handful.
Especially when she was rescued, Liu Ying seized the opportunity to deliver a final blow.
Lu Xiaoyao couldn't even imagine such a blow, 60%!
"My God. My mech's defense is so low, and it took 60% damage with one kick! It really crippled me with one kick! I could only move my arm at the time."
Mingmei breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this; it turned out that when she was hit, it wasn't the opponent's full-force attack.
