Chapter 712 Secret (Part 1)

"Meimei! I'm here to save you!!"

Mu Chen protected Mingmei, facing the frenzied attacks of the Zerg. Mingmei was still calculating with Guigui whether there were any risks in activating the insect core again when Lu Xiaoyao's voice came through their nearby channel!

After blasting away the approaching Zerg with a cannon, Mu Chen's vision blurred, and he saw a giant mecha suddenly rushing in front of them.

"Don't worry, I'll cover your retreat!"

Lu Xiaoyao had wanted to rush over a long time ago, but she and other colleagues were constantly on the road rescuing people. Mingmei and Mu Chen's area had been a super dangerous zone attracting attention from all sides.

Lu Xiaoyao had glanced over there several times, so anxious she was frothing at the mouth. She wanted to curse, who was the idiot?!

Letting Mingmei and Mu Chen, both newbies, attract the firepower?!

What a moron?!

Fortunately, reinforcements arrived early, and Lu Xiaoyao finally had the chance to proactively apply for support!

"Thank you." Hearing Mingmei's listless voice, Lu Xiaoyao felt a pang of heartache.

She had heard some veterans say that Mingmei's mecha, besides being good at close combat, was also skilled in mental attacks.

Everyone had witnessed the Zerg's earlier chaos.

[My baby, I'm so moved to tears! You've grown up!]

[Used to be scared to death playing games, but now she's charging to the front lines!!!]

[Baby! Live well!]

[Ahhh! My baby!]

[Is it possible that she only dared to come up because her mecha can take a beating?]

[Hey! What do you mean by that? Even if her mecha can take a beating, would you dare charge in here? Holy crap! A single glance and there's nothing lower than high-level Zerg, alright?]

The audience in the comments was still very worried about the situation of Lu Xiaoyao and the others.

Especially when Mingmei noticed that it seemed only Lu Xiaoyao had come to support them, she couldn't help but ask, "You, you came to support us alone?"

"Yeah, everyone else either went back to repair their mechas, or can't support us, or has already joined the reinforcements and is continuing to fight elsewhere."

In short, Lu Xiaoyao's answer meant one thing—there was no one else, only her.

Mu Chen: "..."

"Are you here voluntarily or were you forced to come?"

As Lu Xiaoyao's good friend, Mingmei knew Lu Xiaoyao's personality of being afraid of death and pain.

How could they send Lu Xiaoyao to such a dangerous place at this time?

Mingmei felt that even if there was no one else, they shouldn't have sent Lu Xiaoyao to such a dangerous battlefield.

After all, Lu Xiaoyao had always been doing support work like rescue operations.

Suddenly sending her to the front lines like this made Mingmei think that the person who gave the order was crazy.

Mingmei couldn't help but suspect if it was her uncle who gave the order.

If it was Yan Hui's order, Mingmei would feel even more guilty.

Although she knew that Lu Xiaoyao's mecha had very high defensive capabilities, Mingmei didn't think that this place would be very safe for Lu Xiaoyao.

It was still unknown if she and Mu Chen could completely escape, and now with Lu Xiaoyao added, things would be even more uncertain.

Although Mingmei didn't think Lu Xiaoyao would be a burden, judging from the Zerg's frantic attacks on her and Mu Chen when they displayed the power of their S-class mechas—

If Lu Xiaoyao's mecha appeared here, protecting the two of them while also revealing the power of her mecha, then the Zerg, which were already going crazy targeting them, might now target Lu Xiaoyao as well.

Now, the surrounding situation had been broken by the reinforcements, but the Zerg they were facing were obviously not planning to return alive.

Mingmei felt that when they went crazy, they could do anything, and they couldn't retreat any further.

If they retreated further, these Zerg would directly charge onto Qilan Star!

...

[Speak, I'm very busy right now, what do you want from me?]

After dealing with the Zerg at the border of the Canglan Starfield, which had directly attacked the gate of their military base, Hu Mingli was mobilizing troops and preparing to dispatch another batch of soldiers to support Qilan Star.

But then his optical brain suddenly lit up. When he opened it, it was Feng Li contacting him through a special channel!

This mermaid-Zerg hybrid woman who currently held complete power in the Outer Star Sea.

Feng Li looked at Hu Mingli's unruly face, which rarely showed impatience and eagerness, and then glanced at the starships and mechas ready to set off behind him.

She raised her eyebrows and asked, "Is it appropriate for us to meet and chat in this setting?"

Hu Mingli chuckled dismissively, as if there was no one else around, and directly said, "Why are you looking for me today? What did you hear?"

Having just fought the Zerg, Hu Mingli was exuding a fierce aura that kept the insects away.

Even if she was a Zerg hybrid, it was difficult for him to remain calm and give her a good look.

"Seeing you like this, you don't seem to want to hear me share anything with you?"

Seeing Hu Mingli's bad attitude, Feng Li's temper also flared up.

But thinking about the news she had just received, she felt that she still needed to tell Hu Mingli. After all, they had been neighbors for so long, and she would feel disgusted if someone suddenly replaced him?

The Outer Star Sea had finally calmed down, and she and Ukriane didn't want to break the current situation.

"What important news do you have? What important news could you have that's related to me? Did the Zerg buy our Qilan Starfield's spies and have other plans for us?"

As soon as Hu Mingli finished speaking, the surrounding soldiers looked over.

Good heavens, Feng Li felt suffocated even through the screen.

"That's not it. What kind of relationship do we have? How could we harm you?"

The way she said it, it was as if Feng Li hadn't led people to hack their system last time.

"Besides, I don't have such a close relationship with the Zerg, and you don't have to collect information through the Outer Star Sea every time. Besides, I've said this news, believe it or not."

...

"Hey, I say, what's with you, being so restless every day? Isn't there already reinforcements? And the situation is starting to develop for the better. Why are you still so distracted?"

In a tavern on the border of the Guangyu Starfield, Chi Yu was watching the live broadcast. When he saw the reinforcements had arrived, he immediately had the bar owner open a few bottles of good wine and celebrated.

But after taking a few sips, he wanted to find Tianma next to him to share the joy, but he saw that Tianma's expression was even worse than before.

He stared at the screen intently, biting his fingers nervously, not knowing what he was thinking.

Chi Yu wanted to sneak a peek at what Tianma was staring at, but hackers like Tianma always liked to cover their optical brains tightly.

He was right next to him, but he couldn't see anything.

Chi Yu saw Tianma's face sometimes showing fear, sometimes disbelief, and sometimes a kind of suspicion of life, disbelief, as if he had eaten a lump of shit or it was pulled by the person he hated the most.

Chi Yu became more and more confused. After drinking two bottles of wine, Chi Yu finally couldn't help but pat Tianma on the shoulder and ask, "Hey kid, what earth-shattering thing did you see?"
