Chapter 75 Ready to Go
It was clear that Marshal Ives's questions had inexplicably stirred Savannah's fighting spirit. Eli breathed a sigh of relief, reached out and touched the boy's head, and smiled. "Savannah, you're well said. I look forward to the day I can fight alongside you in the Legion."
The touch under the palm was not very good. Savannah's short hair was prickly, like a little hedgehog.
Like the boy himself, the shell is covered with spikes, but the inside is very soft.
It was rare that after the compliment, Eli remained silent. He felt an indescribable sense of guilt: in Tong Wanwan's pet shop, he had spent the most time with Savannah and Daya, and was the senior the two children relied on the most.
He knows what the two children like, hate, and are good at. He also understands their respective areas of interest and knows what kind of people they want to become in the future.
But... Eli still had only a vague understanding of what they had experienced in M32.
Compared to other planets, M32 is too remote and too small. Even if the Zerg swept across the entire small planet and the situation became serious and uncontrollable, the message of requesting help would still not be able to be transmitted from M32.
As early as a year ago, or even longer, this planet had become a veritable Death Star.
Even the Zerg were unwilling to stay for long in this desolate land full of holes and without any life matrix that could provide energy.
If it weren't for meeting Savannah and Daya, Eli and the others really wouldn't be able to...find this planet.
The blond Major General, still lost in thought, suddenly felt a pinch on his neck. He lowered his eyes to find Savannah's hand tugging at his collar. As Eli bent slightly to accommodate the force, the boy reached out and ruffled the Major General's blond hair, seemingly in revenge or comfort.
Just like the hand that Major General extended to you at the beginning.
Eli: “…”
He hesitated to speak, but finally revealed a sunny and carefree smile.
Sure enough, Savannah looks like a cool and arrogant kid, but he is actually well-behaved and considerate. Compared with those naughty kids in his family, they are completely two different species.
"Where's Daya?" Tracy asked with a frown, her voice as soft as the wind blowing through the window. "Do you want to apply to the military academy with your brother?"
"Yes!" the girl answered without thinking, then lowered her head shyly.
Her ability and awareness were far inferior to her brother Savannah, but she also wanted to do her best to stay by her brother's side and help him.
besides……
Protect everyone she wants to protect.
After that, the room returned to silence.
Elvis, Eli, and Tracy: "...?"
Daya, Savannah: “?”
The two children, who normally play cat-like, chase each other happily, but when it comes to opening up and having a good conversation, each one becomes more silent than the other.
However, judging by the appearance of the brother and sister, they really don't need to worry too much, as they can adjust themselves.
"Okay, keep up the good work, everyone." Tracy said with a smile, "If there's anything you don't know or want to learn, you can always ask me."
Savannah and Daya lived in a separate pet room from them. Thinking of this, the long-haired young man added, "If you need anything from us, you can always come over. Don't be afraid to disturb us."
The two children had stars in their eyes: "Okay!"
After Elvis had counseled Savannah, he sat quietly beside the two children, saying nothing. Eli and Tracy chatted with them for a while until the two children finally fell asleep, transformed themselves back into cats, and comfortably lay back in their little nests. Then they quietly left.
However, Eli did not go to sleep in the second half of the night. He played with the laptop he took off and leaned against the wall in deep thought.
"What's wrong?" Tracy was puzzled when she saw her friend was in a daze, with even the ahoge on her head drooping. "Are you still thinking about Savannah and Daya?"
Eli raised his eyelashes, nodded, and said frankly, "I asked a few friends to help me research more about Planet M32."
He rarely made enemies within the Legion. He could identify with close friends from the First Legion to the Third. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say he had friends everywhere. And his friends all had their own intelligence networks, so the clues they uncovered were undoubtedly more numerous than Eli's.
Tracy and Eli have known each other since childhood, and they can guess each other's thoughts from every frown and frown.
The brown-haired young man asked in a low voice: "Do you want to go to M32?"
Eli was stunned for a moment, then admitted, "That's right."
Sure enough, nothing could be hidden from Tracy's eyes.
"Last time, I didn't go to C44, but... I also heard about the parasite 'Tari' and the parasited people." That time, Marshal Ives and Deputy Commander Dean led the troops to fight bravely in the city of Sictes, and he, as an officer assigned by the federal superiors to assist the marshal, was of no help at all.
Recently, the federal government has not been able to find much information and data about the "Tari worm", and antibody research experiments on Tari have been slow to progress.
"A trip to M32 might yield some unexpected results." Eli's gray-green eyes narrowed slightly, a hint of determination flashing across them. Perhaps they could even find traces of the Tarri worms and thus learn about their next move.
Tracy sighed.
It seems that my friend has made up his mind.
He understood Eli's desire to help, and he also had full faith in the Major General's ability, so he said no more: "Do you need me to go with you?"
After hearing this, the blond major general's eyes lit up for a moment, then paused.
"No need. You stay and take care of Savannah and Daya. I can invite a few free friends from the Legion to go with me. You won't be exploring alone. Also, if Wanwan and Lord Ives need any help..."
"I know." Tracy patted her friend's shoulder and reminded him, "Be careful and do what you can."
Exploring a new planet has always been the most arduous and dangerous endeavor, because you can never predict what will happen next, or how great a crisis it might bring.
Thinking of this, Tracy pondered and said, "My family has newly created several types of segmented armor for primary defense. Although they're still in the experimental stage, they've already passed safety inspections. Before you leave, come with me and take a set with you for self-defense."
Eli: “!” Can I take a set of armor with me before leaving?
There is such a good thing in the world!
The blond major general was instantly happy: "Tracy, you really are my best brother!"
If every planet exploration gave him a new armor set, he could do it ten times! Twenty times!
Tracy's smile remained unchanged: "Don't overthink it, you have to pay it back."
"……oh."
