Chapter 556 BBQ on the Beach
While several singing girls were still on vacation on the beach, the video recording of this competition was also playing in front of a singing girl.
"Rewind this part."
Arnansha, who was sitting in the audience, spoke, and the staff not far away rewound the current clip by one minute.
In the picture, Pulin and other members were discussing how to deal with Heshia's "Black Kite" fighter in the base, and the situation at that time was that the autonomous units of the Lotus Magnetic series had suppressed the battle situation.
At a certain moment, when the others were still paying attention to the screen, vague shadows appeared on the opposite wall, and soon after, these shadows gradually turned into entities.
"Pause."
"Yes."
Arnansha looked at the scene on the screen, paused for a long time, and then asked someone to turn on the other screen to play the situation on Heshia's side.
"Where was Heshia at the time?"
"According to the positioning of the bracelet, Miss Heshia was not on the battlefield, nor was she among the raiders, but underground in a basement in the south."
"How did she find the specific location of Pulin?" This matter seems simple, but it is extremely critical in war. Many times, you can't confirm the location of the enemy's leader.
"This... please wait, let's search for the information at that time."
Time passed by minute by minute, and after nearly an hour, the staff came to report.
"It was around the fifth day, when Pulin and Shui Yanqing were fighting, Miss Heshia's autonomous unit tracked and discovered the target. Then when Miss Pulin was injured and returned to the mountain to rest, a spider that could turn invisible and sneak left a mark on Miss Pulin."
"How did this happen? With Pulin's ability as a singer, she could have sensed it even if the spider could turn invisible."
"It was a coincidence, because the spider didn't make direct contact at the time, but left different marks at several possible points along the way, which means that as long as Pulin came to these points, she would be marked."
"In addition, Pulin was injured by the sniper on Shui Yanqing's side at the time, and her perception became much slower and duller, so she didn't notice it."
"The mark lasted for a day and then disappeared. The reason Heshia was able to find it was because she calculated Pulin's favorite base based on the trajectory of that day. The team then came near this base, and when the cluster of Black Kite fighters in the sky was blocked by the Lotus series fighters, they finally determined that the base in front of them should be Pulin's location, and the final raid began."
"Such a raid, even with Heshia's ability to provide the blessing of phantomization, is still likely to fail. After all, with the strength and time of the assault team, they can only launch one attack, and Pulin will definitely be prepared after that, making it difficult to succeed." Arnansha analyzed calmly.
Suddenly she thought of something and spoke again; "How did you find out about the big spider and the mark? These satellites in the sky and hidden detection units cannot fully perceive it."
"We learned about it from the tactical discussion video left on Heshia's side."
"In fact, Miss Heshia prepared five sets of tactics. The first set is the 100 Black Kite-class fighters dispatched from the main base, the second set is the special tactical team for this raid, and the third set is the Black Kite-class fighters that are still being assembled and processed in various bases. There are about 60 of them. The fourth set of tactics is the various extraordinary creatures that Miss Heshia has conquered in turn in the past ten days, including a Sequence 7 mudstone crab and 11 high-level extraordinary creatures. The fifth set of tactics is a special mecha hidden under the main base, which can allow Miss Heshia to operate it for extremely flexible transfers and battles. If it is the final stage of both sides suffering losses, this special mecha can easily change the entire battle situation."
"According to Miss Heshia's plan, if the first batch of 100 Black Kite fighters failed and the assault team did not behead Pulin, the second batch of 60 Black Kite fighters would be dispatched according to the situation, and the location of the real target would be determined for the third time based on the results of the first two battles."
"This is equivalent to using the first batch of Black Kite fighters as 'tracer bullets', right? To break the situation, lure the snake out of the hole, and calibrate the position." Arnansha tapped the armrest with her fingers.
"As for those extraordinary creatures, I personally think that Miss Heshia estimated that the situation would be corrupted in the later stage, and both sides would be injured and have little power. At this time, the entry of those extraordinary creatures would bring about effective changes, so she did not use this power when she first fought with Pulin." The staff continued to report.
"As for the last mecha, according to Miss Heshia's previous driving and control in the underground test, her mental consciousness is extremely strong. She can quickly operate the mecha under the condition of neural connection and perform quite difficult actions. With her strength, it is difficult for Pulin to resist the mecha. After all, Pulin lacks effective defensive secrets and talents. If Pulin can realize this, she will not be injured by the sniper when entering the base where Shui Yanqing is."
"Why didn't you announce these before?" Yanansha said.
"Because the above tactics were only discussed orally once by Heshia. If it weren't for the record on Miss Heshia's wrist bracelet, it would be difficult for us to know. Moreover, Miss Heshia tried the mecha and only sat on it for a few minutes before getting off. We learned about the synchronization rate and adaptability of Miss Heshia and the mecha by extracting the data inside the mecha later."
"This child is really cautious." Yanansha smiled and seemed to be in a good mood.
"The time and conditions for the competition are actually very limited. It's not easy for her to be so thorough. I was worried that she was a little indecisive before. It seems that she is the kind of person who appears to be the most gentle on the surface, but secretly has made the worst plan."
"Sometimes I feel a little distressed. What kind of cautious childhood made her develop these habits silently?"
"Now we can still peek into some things in her heart through this form, but as she grows up and gradually becomes equal to us, it will probably become more and more difficult to understand what she really cares about and what she thinks in her heart."
"What do you mean?" The staff officer at the side asked cautiously.
"I don't mean to say that she is bad. On the contrary, I am very satisfied with Heshia's caution and prudence, because this quality is often precious on the battlefield. Every decision we make is related to the lives of many soldiers and even the future of this country. If Heshia is a girl who is kind but too simple and naive, I dare not win her over, because such a person will only be a time bomb."
"I feel, just a feeling, that old guy Idlia probably doesn't see through Heshia. Maybe she vaguely feels that she is more down-to-earth, otherwise she would not leave Heshia to us so easily and would have started to sabotage and interfere."
"She probably thinks it's good, but not good enough for her to bet all her efforts on it. After all, she is also an elf, and many people around her are more optimistic about Orlais."
"Then delete the five sets of tactical recordings prepared by Heshia in the confrontation match, leaving only the first set of tactical 100 fighters and the second set of tactical assault teams that are visible on the surface. As for the 60 fighters that have not yet taken off in the branch base, just mention them vaguely in a corner later, and there is no need to specifically mark the number." "
In addition, the mecha that Heshia tried to drive and sat on will have its related data completely destroyed, and the mecha will be dismantled on the spot. Don't let others know."
"Understood."
"Since she doesn't want to be famous, we will keep it a secret for her. In the future, you should try to reduce your contact with her in public. However, you can select some trustworthy young military men with good prospects and instill in them the idea that Heshia is a singer who can be relied on and trusted."
"It's too early to say this now, but I feel that the Federation will not be too peaceful in the future. The interests of all parties are becoming increasingly difficult to balance, and some contradictions will sooner or later break out."
"I can still stabilize the situation within the military, but in the future, no one can say for sure what will happen. Who will take over after I'm gone? It will often be too late to think and consider it at that time."
"Once there is no backbone, many things will become extremely chaotic, and once there are changes in the military, the outcome is often extremely serious and cruel." She sighed.
"Lord Arnansha." The staff officer next to him wanted to ask something.
"You tell me."
"How can we win over Heshia if we don't have any open contact with her?"
"This question is very simple. All we need is 'understanding'."
"What do you think winning over means? Is it eating together, playing together, and making money together? These may be true for ordinary people, but not for the singer."
"Because there are too many forces that want to win over in this way, the singer will also be defensive, and because she has seen too much, it is easy to become numb."
"Real winning over is actually recognition and trust. Although you and I have never met, we all have common goals and beliefs, so it is easy for us to come together and even trust each other with our lives."
"Although everyone thinks that idealists are naive, has anyone ever thought about how fragile and corrupt an organization that puts pure interests first is, full of infighting and internal consumption, mutual betrayal, and difficult to accomplish."
"If Heshia is the kind of person we expected, she will notice them, because we have some of the same ideas as her. We just need to fully show her our situation, ideas, difficulties, and desires, and she will realize it."
"She needs us, and we need her, so we will gradually come together." Arnansha tapped with her fingers.
"I understand." The staff officer bowed his head and saluted.
"That's it. After the work is done, let you rest for a few days. I guess you have been living in fear for the past half month, hehe."
"After all, the girls who will be the focus of the future of the entire federation are in the same basket, and everyone is afraid of something happening."
...
Yuesuo Island, night.
Not far from the beach, there are several triangular tents built with rough wood, and there is a bonfire in front of the tent.
There are insects and weeds everywhere. Several girls sit on the rocks around the bonfire, occasionally looking up at the night sky, occasionally chatting and saying a few words, and then checking whether the things buried under the bonfire are cooked.
It is very quiet here, without the neon light pollution in the city. It is dark in the distance, and the starry sky is clear, as if words can be heard in the sky.
After taking a bath, Odney was lying on a black rock in her pajamas, with her hands spread out. Beside her was Blanche, and the two were whispering. On the other side, Prin was turning the skewers on the campfire, occasionally taking one off, blowing on it, and eating it with a little joy.
Shui Yanqing and Tilan were grilling shells on the side, carefully sprinkling various condiments. As for Orles, she squatted on the side, watching them with a little curiosity and freshness.
"Will it taste good like this?" Watching the two people patiently and carefully handling the shells, Orles finally couldn't help asking.
"It will taste good." Tilan smiled, then dipped a little condiment with her finger and asked Orles to add it.
There was a slight coolness on the fingertips, and Orles felt like a kitten. Tilan asked, "How is it?"
"Hmm... a little salty." Orles tilted her head and thought about it.
"But it's not that obvious, probably a little sour and slightly irritating."
"Because vinegar and garlic are added." Tilan was not surprised.
"When it's done, sprinkle this on it and it will taste good."
"If Orlesi thinks it's a little fishy, you can add a little more vinegar or cooking wine." Tilan remembered that elves generally don't like fishy smells.
"Yeah." Orlesi nodded and continued to squat aside, watching Tilan carefully and meticulously handle the food in the light of the fire. Although she didn't know how it would taste in the end, this scene made her feel very peaceful and a little warm.
"This is ready." Shui Yanqing carefully picked up a piece with tweezers and placed it on the plate next to her.
"Do you want to try it?" She blinked her pink eyes and looked at Orlesi across from her.
"I'll wait for Tilan to finish baking." Orlesi replied.
"Oh, you really like it." Shui Yanqing didn't care. She picked it up herself and tasted it in small bites. She felt that the taste was a little light, so she added some salt.
"That's about it. Tilan, come and try one too."
Then Orles looked at Tilan eagerly while she ate the shells that Shui Yanqing had grilled. This scene made Shui Yanqing want to laugh. This young lady obviously had everything she needed, so why was she so attached to Tilan?
After that, Orles finally waited until the ones that Tilan had grilled were done, and then she happily ate them. Then, while Tilan grilled, she fed Orles, and occasionally, Pulin would come over and exchange the grilled skewers for a few grilled shells.
"Wow, you all have some."
Blanche and Audney, who finally smelled the fragrance, came late, squatted beside them, and started to tinker with them, causing a burst of laughter.
The night was as cool as water. After they finished dinner, they sat against each other under the night sky, taking turns telling stories and humming simple melodies until late at night, when the vast Milky Way appeared in the starry sky.
"What a beautiful world."
