Welcome to the second volume of "Across the Sea", which will begin a new chapter, new enemies, and a new future!

"I didn't expect that when Chief Su heard that I was about to leave for the sea area to take up my post, he directly confiscated Achilles..." At this moment, Wu Jie was sitting on a destroyer that came to greet him. Due to the frequent naval battles in recent times, it was not safe to travel by plane.
Chief Susan Su, who was far away in Suzaku, looked at Achilles in front of her and kept wiping away tears.
I had fallen in love with that bastard. I had just started to like him, but he was about to leave. It was so infuriating.
In fact, Susan didn't really intend to take Achilles away. She just wanted Wu Jie to stay a little longer, at least to give her the promised meal.
I don't know what's wrong with that bastard, he's saying things like there's no time to lose and war never waits for anyone, and that kind of bullshit...
I am so mad, I am so mad, I am so mad...
I... I just want... I just want him to stay a little longer, even for just one day...
call……
call……
After taking several breaths, the phone suddenly rang: "Hello, who's calling me?"
A familiar voice came from the other end of the phone, which made Susan perk up immediately: "What's wrong, Sister Su? You are so aggressive, which is not like you normally."
As far as Mingxi could remember, Susan had never been angry about anything other than scientific research. Judging from her tone, Mingxi, who was familiar with Susan's temper, immediately realized that Susan was definitely not upset because of scientific research.
When Susan heard it was Mingxi, she was silent for a moment before she replied, "It's okay. I was just pissed off by some jerk. It will be fine after that."
Mingxi smiled and said, "You wouldn't say it was that brat, would you? How could he possibly offend you?"
Mingxi was confused. Logically speaking, although Susan's temper and upbringing were not the best, she was definitely not someone who would get angry easily over trivial matters.
unless……
When Susan heard Mingxi mention that man, she suddenly felt flustered for no reason. Mingxi mentioned that man in such a sensitive way, how could she not be flustered?
After a few grunts, Susan coughed and said, "It's that brat all over again. He used up my carefully crafted Achilles and made it half useless. I'm upgrading it right now. I'm so pissed!"
Mingxi burst out laughing. So it was because of this matter...
In fact, Susan was not lying. Wu Jie used the red line focused particle cannon without any scruples, causing serious wear and tear on the entire energy tube and muzzle, and also leakage.
Of course, Susan didn't have time to tell Wu Jie about these things, she heard Wu Jie say that he was leaving soon, which made Susan angry. She pretended to confiscate Achilles and would send it to him when she was in a better mood.
Mingxi smiled and said, "Okay, Sister Su, you know that Wu Jie made great contributions in this nest battle. If it weren't for his desperate efforts on the front lines, according to the AI's calculations, the worst-case scenario for this nest battle might have been more than half the casualties."
"However, this time Wu Jie beheaded the Zhi Queen in advance and also captured a mysterious life form, causing the Zhi-type Aurora Beast to lose its leader. This time, we only suffered over 200 casualties and captured the 15th battle zone, with no casualties... Sister Su, please bear with me..."
After listening to Mingxi's words, Susan was completely speechless.
Only then did she realize how impulsive she had been.
As a scientist, she knew very well how troublesome the Boar-like Aurora Beast was. In previous large-scale battles, whenever a division faced the Boar-like Aurora Beast, no army dared to say that they would not suffer casualties.
However, this time, Wu Jie created three miracles in a row in just one night. As the chief scientist, how could Susan not understand the value of Wu Jie?
Susan suddenly realized, could it be that she... No, it's impossible. I'm just a scientist and have never been interested in the opposite sex. How could I be easily moved by a few words from that person?
It's fake, definitely fake...
But when Susan thought of Mingxi's words just now, she felt extremely guilty. She was too willful and put Wu Jie in danger. Could it be that she really fell in love with him?
Otherwise, why would he act so impulsively because of Wu Jie's actions?
Thinking of this, Susan seemed to be more determined and understood something. In this case, she would become a person who dared to love and hate.
Being indecisive has never been her character. She has always been like this in scientific research, so when it comes to her feelings, she should also take the lead!
Wu Jie...
No, I've decided on you.
Susan took a deep breath, and her mood immediately brightened. She said, "Xiaoxi, don't worry. I'm going to make a major modification to Achilles this time. After the modification is completed, I will arrange for a transport plane to bring it to him. The new functions are guaranteed to surprise him!"
Mingxi was stunned at first. Although he didn't know why he felt something was wrong, he nodded and said, "Okay, I'll wait for your good news. Let me know when the modification is completed and I'll arrange the transport plane."
"Thank you, Xiaoxi."
After hanging up the phone, Susan was stunned, then her face turned red, and then she covered her face with her hands, followed by a scream!
"ah--"
Fortunately, the laboratory has good sound insulation, otherwise it would definitely be heard by other experimenters outside.
Oh my god, what was I thinking just now? Her face flushed, and she felt her brain was lacking oxygen.
I haven't spoken to Wu Jie many times, but why... I always think about him?
Really, so embarrassing...

“Woo—”
With a hum, the destroyer, reflecting the sunlight, slowly sailed away.
Due to frequent naval battles and the large number of swift-winged beasts flying around in the sky, General Roselle arranged a destroyer to pick up Wu Jie for safety reasons.
Although it is the era of war dancers, these old-fashioned warships still play a huge role.
After all, the caliber and firepower of the naval guns are sufficient. Although they are not as flexible as the ship dancers, these warships have also made great contributions in the previous Battle of Yubei.
Countless warships were sunk by Auroramon's terrifying rays. Although humans' previous weapons could only cause limited damage to Auroramon, the huge caliber of the ship's guns and the various different types of shells made Auroramon's invasion not so easy.
In addition, with the help of the aircraft carrier, although they were still defeated by Auroramon's attack, they also bought a lot of time for the emergence of War Dancer.
Weapons eliminated by the times... Wu Jie couldn't help but touch the destroyer's hull, feeling its heavy yet cool touch with a historical flavor.
