Three months later.
The Milky Way battlefield, War Zone 502.
The girl in the pretty pink mecha couldn't help but let out a confused sound.
"Are you sure..."
"We're supposed to wait here for an ambush?"
"This place doesn't really look like... a place where a battle would break out."
Beside the mecha, a soft little rabbit was crouching, and then this little rabbit spoke with great certainty.
"Absolutely!"
"Trust me!"
"A very important battle is going to happen here, called the defense of 502. The intensity of the war here is unimaginable for ordinary people. I stole this mecha, the Pink Guardian, from the main system."
"Although this mecha looks cute and seems like it can't fight much..."
The little rabbit coughed twice, then continued.
"In reality—cough cough, this mecha is indeed not very good at fighting."
"However, this is a rare medical mecha, with several fully automatic treatment devices! And this mecha is equipped with the highest technology of shielding devices, which can even block the detection signals of other mechas. As long as you stay still, no one will be able to find you."
"This mecha is most suitable for you to lie low on the battlefield!"
"Even if the outside is fighting fiercely, I guarantee you can lie low on the battlefield until the end of time!"
The little rabbit's tone was very excited.
Upon hearing the little rabbit tell her this good news in such an excited tone.
Lin Mu Ci felt a headache and boredom.
"You mean I have to squat here all the time?"
"Like a rock?"
"Are you sure this camouflage function you brag about is useful? Such a big pink thing, who wouldn't notice it?"
Lin Mu Ci felt that the little rabbit's words were definitely exaggerated. Hearing Lin Mu Ci's doubt, the little rabbit felt a little embarrassed. The little rabbit coughed twice, then jumped around Lin Mu Ci in anger.
"Of course, it's useful, absolutely useful!"
"How can you doubt me!"
"This stealth function is definitely very useful, guaranteed to not be detected."
"War Zone 502 is a very important place because it is a crucial resource point for mining an extremely rare energy stone called Magnesium Peptide Crystals. This energy stone can repair the genes of powerful individuals, hence it is highly sought after by all the universes."
"Powerful individuals, because they are too powerful, their bodies are actually in a state of overload all the time. Therefore, the stronger the ability possessor, the less frequently they can use their immense power, because the body's carrying capacity has limits."
"Their bodies have a carrying limit. Using power beyond the carrying limit will cause permanent damage to their bodies, and this damage is irreversible!"
"Those old guys in the council were all conquering various places and rose to power through using their strength."
"Now, although each of them appears powerful on the surface, their physical condition is actually precarious."
"So, they desperately need this rare energy stone, they need Magnesium Peptide Crystals."
"This war zone can almost be called the bloody meat grinder of the Milky Way battlefield, with powerful individuals from different star systems constantly attacking."
"If Ling Kuang indeed agrees to the council members coming to the Milky Way battlefield, he should be sent here."
"After all, he is immensely powerful and young, which means his body has not been torn apart by that intense power yet. His body is very healthy and can withstand high-intensity combat."
Lin Mu Ci listened to the little system explain earnestly. She thought for a moment and raised a serious doubt.
"Then—"
"Why don't those people go themselves?"
"And even if they mine that energy stone you mentioned, the Magnesium Peptide Crystal, after taking it back—it should be difficult to distribute, right? It sounds like this energy stone is very rare—and so many powerful individuals need it, how will it be distributed?"
The little rabbit's eyes widened.
"Wow, host, you actually thought of unequal distribution, such a profound question, you're so smart!"
Lin Mu Ci rolled her eyes.
"Does this need thinking?"
"Isn't this an obvious fact?"
"If the distribution is unequal, how will it be handled? There must be some regulation for this matter, right?"
Hearing Lin Mu Ci say this, the little rabbit thought for a moment, its ears twitched. Lin Mu Ci heard the little rabbit say.
"Then I don't know."
"Anyway, humans are always like that... Humans are always greedy and sinful."
Lin Mu Ci squatted inside the mecha, feeling a bit drowsy—but the little rabbit reminded her excitedly.
"Host, host, hurry up and look, what is that?"
Lin Mu Ci raised her head drowsily. Her expression instantly became serious. In her line of sight, a colossal entity hovered above her head, and then countless… countless mechas swarmed in, dark and heavy like a suffocating dark cloud.
These should all be soldiers mobilized from a certain star system! She frowned and muttered to herself.
"It's really... going to be a battle."
...
Ling Kuang sat on the moving spaceship with a cold expression. He glanced at his subordinate and asked him.
"How far is it to War Zone 502?"
His subordinate nervously glanced at the instrument on his wrist, which displayed the precise distance. Then his subordinate swallowed, and his voice sounded a little flustered.
"It's... another two hours until we arrive."
"However, Warden, how did you know that female beast wasn't sucked into a black hole but was taken away by someone?"
Ling Kuang sneered.
"Of course I know."
"Ji Feng is not familiar with spatial teleportation technology, but I am very familiar with this technology—and the other party's authority is extremely high. Those old guys in the council insisted that this matter is top secret and refused to let me find out where she was teleported."
"However, there are only a handful of people who can use the technology of spatial teleportation."
"I am most familiar with the personalities of those old guys. It's highly likely that the little female beast awakened some incredible talent and was captured by the Heavenly Net, which is why she was taken away..."
Speaking of the existence of the Heavenly Net, Ling Kuang frowned. Then Ling Kuang continued.
"That little female beast is not simple."
"Now, to find her specific whereabouts, I can only make a deal with those old guys... Humph hum."
Ling Kuang snorted coldly.
His expression was slightly cold.
If it weren't for this, he wouldn't have come here. He said with a cold gaze.
"If we win, we can leave, right?"
"That damn stone... Humph hum hum."
A group of old men injured to the point where they can't even use too much energy.
Why did they think that after he came here and completed the mission, he would obediently hand over the Magnesium Peptide Crystals?
