Chapter 271 Finding Some Hardship
The team sent by Fu Baili to meet them arrived at the camp the following afternoon. With the route provided by Yan San, their arrival time was reduced by more than half.
The mech with its central control system destroyed was safely loaded into the transport vehicle and prepared to be transported back first. As for the spaceship, it would take some time to pull it up.
Xi Yu and several other trainees stood beside the vehicle carrying the mechs, and the close proximity of the mechs amazed them.
"What exactly is this thing? If it's an intelligent robot, then it seems a bit too powerful. I've never seen such a machine before. What do you think?" Jiang Yuwen, who was next to Xi Yu, kept asking her in a low voice.
Xi Yu shook her head. The matter of alien technology was too fantastical, and Yan San had already warned her and Fang Yiqing not to tell anyone.
Di Han glanced at Xi Yu, his eyes flickering slightly.
They are just trainees who came to assist or intern; they will not be allowed to know any of the core information.
"This mission was so thrilling! When I was fighting that invulnerable machine, I thought I was going to die. Luckily, Captain Yan was there!" Luo Guangji looked like he still had lingering fears. When he mentioned Yan San, his eyes shone with admiration.
“That’s right, Captain Yan truly deserves to be called a strongman of the First Legion!” Jiang Yuwen also agreed, and then she showed a longing expression: “It would be great if I could be assigned to the First Legion after graduation. I wonder if my performance this time satisfied Captain Yan. Yi Qing and Xi Yu are better off. You went into the pit with us, so your chances of being selected are definitely greater than ours.”
Upon hearing this, Fang Yiqing looked up and suddenly said, "It's too early to talk about this. Everyone has the same opportunity, including the cadets in the military academy."
“That’s true.” Di Han smiled and nodded. “The annual assessment will be coming up soon, and then we’ll know.”
These five trainees will return with the first transport team, while Yan San will stay behind with the main force to move the airships.
An Ying and the two military doctors also left together. Since their conversation last night, she didn't dare to linger in front of Xi Yu, which made Xi Yu feel relieved.
Xi Yu glanced at Liang Shan'er, who was eerily quiet. Just a few days ago, the pampered young lady was complaining of being tired as she walked, but on the way back, she had a deathly pale face. An Ying forced herself to talk to her, but she didn't respond much.
Xi Yu stretched. An Ying's life had been too smooth sailing; she always thought the world revolved around her. So, she needed to give An Ying some challenges.
Upon returning to the First Legion, Fu Baili sent men to take Xi Yu and the others back to their rest area. After returning their weapons and equipment, they needed to leave a report before being sent back to the military academy.
The mecha was immediately taken to Dr. Qi's research institute, and what happened after that was beyond the knowledge of the students.
……
In the dormitory.
When Ruan Zilu saw Xi Yu suddenly appear, she was stunned for a moment before jumping up with joy: "You're back! Tell me quickly, was the mission fun? Did you encounter anything interesting?"
Xi Yu chuckled as she was pulled into the room, spreading her palms: "I did encounter something interesting, but unfortunately... I can't tell you."
Ruan Zilu puffed out her cheeks and pretended to be angry, then couldn't help but burst out laughing: "I was just kidding!" Of course, she knew that military missions couldn't be revealed casually.
After chatting and laughing for a while, Ruan Zilu seemed to remember something, opened her mouth, and whispered, "Xiaoyu, two days before you left, your father... Colonel An sent someone to pick you up and take you home again."
