Balan Star, base city, street.
Looking around, there are almost no intact buildings, and most of them have become ruins.
Even the curbs on the streets are not intact.
Wang Teng took Chi Xue walking on the streets of the base city. From the remaining outlines, they could roughly imagine how bustling it once was.
Just looking at the lonely figures of the Balan people who followed the Red Star soldiers to clean up the ruins, the once bustling place has now become dead silent.
Many ghosts of those who died in vain are buried under the ruins.
There is still sadness on their faces, but their straight backs tell the world how tenacious they are.
Time flies, and the survivors have to live on in this desolate world with the memory of the deceased and the pain of losing their loved ones.
But the arrival of the Red Star Fleet will dispel the haze over their heads. Although they will still be in pain, their future will be illuminated by the Red Star.
He walked through several streets with Chixue, but no one paid any attention to him, or perhaps their sadness left them no time to care about others.
Only the Red Star ship soldiers noticed someone was looking at them. They looked up and saw that it was Wang Teng, and saluted quickly.
Wang Teng waved his hand and told them not to come over and to continue with their work.
Chi Xue was wearing loose casual clothes. Due to problems with her weapons, she was temporarily out of the battle sequence until she replaced the new weapon core and circuit.
Because of some preparation work, Wang Teng took her downstairs for a walk.
In the previous life, someone said that more contact with the ground can give the body more resistance.
Doctors always advise their patients to do more appropriate exercise.
"Are you the eldest sister?"
Suddenly, a group of children ran over from the ruins nearby and surrounded Chi Xue.
Thanks to the assistance from Red Star, they received care, had their clothes changed and washed, and looked much more energetic.
Being suddenly surrounded, Chi Xue was about to deploy her weapons, but every time she moved, her meridians were pulled, and then she remembered her condition.
Then, she thought of Wang Teng who was right beside her, and at this moment they were on Balan Star, a planet that had just been baptized by war.
She also knew the child in front of her.
It was the same group we met before.
"Do you know each other?" Wang Teng asked softly.
Only then did the children notice Wang Teng's presence.
"Big brother, are you and big sister together?"
"Forehead?"
Wang Teng was stunned. Why did this sentence sound ambiguous?
What do you mean by being together?
Chi Xue blushed all of a sudden, but she still understood what the children meant.
"Yes, big brother is, uh, he is my captain."
"Captain? What does captain mean? Does it mean you can transform and fight like your big sister?"
Although the child's expression was unclear, Wang Teng still understood it.
Obviously, they knew that Chi Xue was an armed mecha warrior, but they didn't know what an armed mecha warrior was. They just regarded that kind of attire as a transformation.
"Yes, I can also transform and fight." Wang Teng replied.
The children all showed longing expressions.
"That's great! We also want to be able to transform and fight like our older brothers and sisters..."
"This way I can protect Mom and Dad..."
"I can protect my brother!"
"Then I'll protect everyone!"
To be honest, children may speak without restraint, but even children know the difference between hatred and indignation.
Wang Teng also realized at this time that these children were all war orphans.
They are victims of war.
"But then, you'd have one foot in hell. Do you know what having one foot in hell means?"
"Know!"
The children started speaking.
"I heard from the sister of the resistance army that they are stepping into hell and returning to the world with the fire of revenge."
"Don't you hate them? If it weren't for the rebels, Balan Star might not have been attacked."
The children shook their heads. "We only know that it was the Seran Star Fleet that made us lose our home, our parents..."
Wang Teng knew that the seeds of hatred had been planted in the hearts of these children.
But thinking that the rebels had been recruited by him, these children might have nowhere to go.
"Do you know who I am?"
"I know. You are the captain of Big Sister."
Chi Xue blushed again for no reason and turned her head to look away.
"Big Brother, does the Captain have many warships?"
"A fleet captain is, but a starship captain is not."
"ah?"
This question left all the children speechless. Aren’t they all captains? What’s the difference?
Wang Teng smiled and said, "Do you want to become someone who can transform like Big Sister?"
"think!"
The children looked at him eagerly.
"Big brother, if you become our captain, can we become as powerful as big sister?" A smart child suddenly thought of it.
Wang Teng nodded, then shook his head.
"I don't know if you can become as great as her. It requires your own efforts."
"What kind of person you can become is up to you to choose."
"You are still young and have room for choice."
The children listened to him and thought hard, but couldn't figure it out.
"Then, can we still...be like onee-sama, someone who can transform?"
Ultimately, what they want is power.
Wang Teng nodded uncertainly.
"When you grow up, if you still insist on making this choice, you can come to us."
"Then where should we go to find you?"
"Remember our fleet's designation, we are the Red Star Fleet..."
Wang Teng patted their heads and continued, "Before that, you need to grow up well, study hard, and live a good life."
"Is it only by studying hard that I can become a transformed person like that?" the little girl asked timidly.
"Of course. If you don't believe me, just ask Big Sister. She studied hard and became such a powerful armed warrior."
Armed Combat Soldier, the kids finally knew what that kind of transformation was called.
"Big sister, is it true? Only by studying hard can you become a, a, a, armed, armed soldier?"
Looking at the children's earnest gazes, Chixue's face turned red like a bubble teapot.
She didn't know why Wang Teng mentioned her, because she had never studied at all. She only had an elementary school diploma, no, she didn't even have a kindergarten diploma!
"Yes, right..."
She blushed and nodded.
But the children took it seriously.
They said seriously, "Okay, then we will grow up well and study hard. When we grow up, we will come to you. By then, we will become armed soldiers!"
Faced with such an agreement, Wang Teng agreed.
No reason, just to give them a goal to move forward while living, rather than living in hatred because of war.
"By the way, Captain, what's your name?"
"Me? My name is Wang Teng."
