Chapter 97: The winner will be decided soon. If it matters, I will...
There was a hint of shyness in Mu Jingchen's eyes. He took out a bottle of ointment. The packaging of the ointment was very small and compact. It was estimated that it would be gone after just a few applications.
Mu Jingchen handed the ointment to Su Shui. Su Shui took it and said, "Hey! Mu Jingchen, how about you help me apply it?"
"Here!" She handed the ointment back to Mu Jingchen, the corners of her mouth twitching with a smile.
Mu Jingchen took the ointment with his bony hands, "You..."
Hmm? Su Shui deliberately raised his ears and listened carefully.
"Don't move around. I'm afraid I'll touch the wrong place."
Su Shui deliberately put his injured face close to Mu Jingchen's hand, and observed Mu Jingchen from time to time with his peripheral vision. In his heart, he was still praising himself.
What does it mean to be lustful and have good taste? This is what it means to be lustful and have good taste.
However, when Su Shui lowered his head, he saw a deep red mark on Mu Jingchen's ankle. There was only a little ointment. Was it enough for him?
Thinking of this, Su Shui grabbed the ointment from Mu Jingchen's hand and said, "I've almost finished applying the ointment on my face. I'll use the rest on your ankle."
"Don't worry, I have another bottle."
Having said that, Mu Jingchen continued to take back the ointment and apply it on Su Shui's face. The thick transparent ointment covered the scars on Su Shui's face, and the red mark faded a lot.
After applying the ointment, there was very little ointment left in the bottle, and Mu Jingchen applied the remaining ointment on his ankle.
Su Shui blinked and raised his voice, "You said there was another bottle? Where's the other bottle?"
Mu Jingchen: "I suddenly remembered that I put the other bottle in the mecha."
Su Shui walked over and suddenly became more serious, "You're lying. There's no second bottle, right?"
Mu Jingchen smiled slightly, "It doesn't matter whether there is a second bottle or not. This minor injury is nothing to worry about."
"It doesn't matter. If it does matter, I'll still have to carry you."
“Ahem!”
Mu Jingchen coughed a few times, "You are right."
Then, Su Shui looked at the strangely quiet sea of roses and said, "It would be better to burn the stinky flowers here directly. This would be more refreshing!"
“That’s the way it should be.”
So, the two of them worked together to set a fire on the island. The fire burned more and more vigorously, and the roses turned into ashes in an instant.
"It's a bit strange that it was successfully baked just like that!"
Everything seemed to be going too smoothly.
From this burnt smell, Su Shui smells a different scent.
When the flames died down, only black ashes remained on the island, covered by snow.
Su Shui narrowed his eyes, "Mu Tiancai, what do you think?"
“Something’s wrong.”
Su Shui curled the corners of her mouth, took Mu Jingchen's hand and was about to leave the island. Before she took a few steps, she heard a rustling sound in her ears.
The sound was very soft, and it was obvious that it was intentionally concealed. If it weren't for Su Shui's super-sensitive hearing, such a sound would definitely not be heard.
For example, Mu Jingchen couldn't hear any sound.
As they were walking, Su Shuixian and Mu Jingchen stopped. They turned around at the same time and looked up. They saw a ten-meter-high, gorgeous rose covered with red sequins.
This is a plant-type mecha!
The plant-type mechas seen this time were much more dangerous than those seen on Gu Yue. The petals and rhizomes of the roses were covered with sequins covered with silver needles, and they also carried viruses from mutated creatures.
As long as you are pricked by sequins or silver needles, your blood will be infected with the virus.
Su Shui took a step forward, looked up at Big Rose, and said frivolously: "I was so angry just now that I burned you with my perception, but it made you bigger instead. I have a bad memory and forgot that you like my perception very much."
"But you're already so grown up, and you still act so sneaky. What are you afraid of?"
A hint of contemptuous amusement flashed across Su Shui's eyes. He jumped forward, plucked a sequin from the rose, and suddenly cut his fingertips with it.
The big rose let out a few miserable screams, and the sequins in Su Shui's hand aged instantly, turning into dry petals that fell to the ground.
The ten-meter-tall rose in front of him gradually became shorter until it returned to its original size.
Su Shui leaned over, picked up the withered rose, turned around and asked Mu Jingchen: "Is this flower worth studying?"
Mu Jingchen took a look and said, "This flower is no different from ordinary ones. You don't need to take it back."
"That's true." Su Shui threw the flowers on the ground and burned them again.
This time it was cooked very cleanly.
"These alienated plants have their own consciousness. They know that I am their nemesis, and they also know that my power can make them stronger, so they have to get rid of me as soon as possible before I discover the secret of blood."
"Tell me, where did these mutated creatures come from?" Su Shui frowned.
Mu Jingchen shook his head and said he didn't know. "Since the crisis ten years ago, the Federation Star Alliance Senate has been investigating this matter, but there has been no result."
“I didn’t expect these things to make a comeback this year.”
"If it weren't for you, the rose would have become humanity's greatest enemy."
Su Shui thought deeply: "Because it is immortal."
"Um."
"But now it is gone, and humanity has won."
Su Shui turned and looked towards the sea. "The mutated rose has been dealt with. Have they also almost tamed the Mercurymon?"
She put her arms behind her back and suddenly thought of a question, "Mu Jingchen, let me ask you a question."
"You say."
"It's said that you have misogyny because the girls who confessed their love to you gave you roses, so you instinctively resisted, right?"
Mu Jingchen nodded. "I didn't expect that I would be accused of being misogynistic because of this incident, but... now I have another problem: mysophobia and male aversion."
Su Shui thought it was a little funny, "Nothing extra, you just reject men, you're not afraid of women."
......
At sea, the men from the Goldman Sachs Academy and the Chappaca Academy started fighting each other.
The main reason was the conflict between the two commanders, Lailag and Xia Yingying, and the two military academies couldn't stand each other.
The Mercury Beast was divided equally among the Imperial School, the Naval Academy, and the Mingguang Military School.
Of all the military academies present, these two were the only ones that did not obtain the Mercury Beast.
Larag felt that the Goldman Sachs Institute was holding back the Chappaka Military Academy, so he complained a few words in disgust. Xia Yingying was very upset when she heard that, and the two sides started arguing.
Later, the argument became more and more fierce and they started fighting on the spot.
When Su Shui and Mu Jingchen arrived, they saw the mechas from the Imperial School, the Naval Academy, and the Mingguang Military School standing in a row, watching the show in unison.
He completely forgot that half of the Huaxi Military Academy's team was fighting to chase the killer monster and catch up with the points.
Su Shui returned to the Red Lotus and said into the loudspeaker, "Ya Donglin, you have a great team. Look at how many points we have now."
Misa Eijun opened the computer first, raised his eyelids, and was shocked when he saw the real-time record of the points on the optical network, "Fuck!"
"We're falling behind!"
Ya Donglin suddenly realized that he had been caught being lazy, so he immediately drove away in his mecha.
It looks like it's going to chase Mercurymon, but it's actually running away.
"We just received a Mercury Beast, but we didn't expect to fall behind in points. Now we have to get to work right away!" Ya Donglin made up a lie.
Misa Eijun added: "What do you mean just now? We have already captured that Mercury Beast without any effort!"
When he said this, he felt that he was extremely wise and that he was a genius.
Ya Donglin said to him, "Keep your voice down."
Su Shui's eyebrows became more and more depressed. These hooligans were caught up by the West China Military Academy so quickly.
However, the West China Military Academy was able to catch up in such a short time. It seems that they are not simple.
All the mechas of the Imperial School drove away. Hua Yuanmeng looked at the Divine Palace in the front with disdain and complained: "The Imperial School finally climbed to the first place, but now it has fallen behind. The one who raised the tiger should take full responsibility!"
Weisqi frowned, "He runs pretty fast..."
Hua Yuanmeng turned his head and looked behind him. The Gaosheng Institute and the Chapaka Military Academy were still fighting. It seemed that it would take a while to decide the winner.
"They no longer have a chance."
Hua Yuan Meng said with certainty.
Vischi continued: "Commander-in-chief, I think Chanduxing has a chance to make it into the top three this time."
Hua Yuan Meng: "It's been forty years. It's time for the glory of Chandu Star to return."
......
At present, the six major military academies have not yet reached the end, and they are competing to kill the Mercury Beast on the way.
During the hours that Su Shui and Mu Jingchen were away, people from other military academies also made a lot of small pellets and threw them onto the seabed.
"They are really good at stealing knowledge. I was wondering how the people from Huaxi Military Academy caught up with us. It seems that they have also developed some research and development."
"But, is their perception more fragrant than mine?"
Su Shui was still very confident. She was sure that as long as she threw the small pellets, the mercury beasts would smell the scent and come.
In order to prevent some Mercury beasts who couldn't get the pellets from going to other houses to look for food, she had to make a large number of pellets.
Su Shui called on all the mecha masters of the Imperial School to participate in the production, and finally all he had to do was inject his own perception into the other small pellets and the job would be done.
After some operations, the result was exactly as Su Shui had imagined. All the Mercury Beasts that stayed near the mechas of other military academies ran to the Imperial School. The Imperial School once again reaped a big harvest!
Su Shui was very satisfied. She turned on her optical computer and scanned the points ranking on the optical network. Now the Imperial School and the West China Military Academy were tied for first place.
Moreover, as soon as the Imperial School's small bullet came out, all the mercury beasts that were currently staying near the West China Military Academy changed sides and swam towards the Imperial School.
"Imperial School! Imperial School is back to number one again!"
"What kind of super-fast scoring is this?"
The rabbit-eared referee's face turned red and his throat was about to burst from shouting.
The spectators outside the venue were extremely excited, including Lin Gou who was locked in the detention room, who jumped up on the spot.
"No.1 in Imperial School!"
"Young Master is the strongest!"
Bei Yingjie and Xie Sheng looked at the time and roughly estimated the remaining distance of the race, knowing that they were less than five kilometers away from the finish line.
At this final moment, everyone is very nervous.
"The winner will be decided soon!"
"The current scores of all military academies are: Imperial Academy 1061, Huaxi Military Academy 1039, Naval Academy 899, Mingguang Military Academy 890, Chapaka Military Academy 503, Gaosheng Academy 495!"
"Will Imperial School be the first in the underwater arena?"
"Can Huaxi Military Academy overtake them?"
"Mingguang Military Academy is still making efforts!"
