Chapter 195: What Do You Want to Do?
The soldiers from both sides split off and the s.p.a.ces.h.i.+ps that didn’t dare to land due to the fight between the powerful beings could finally land.
After all, in the Xiaer system, there were no s.p.a.ces.h.i.+ps that could stop the attacks of the likes of Nangong Jing and the others. They could only watch outside the planet. If they were too bored, they would exchange a few blows with the enemy s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p.
A few huge black and red blade demon s.p.a.ces.h.i.+ps stopped behind the blade demon soldiers.
The blade demon soldiers started entering the s.h.i.+ps in batches. Then, the s.p.a.ce s.h.i.+p flew up. A few more similarly styled s.p.a.ces.h.i.+ps came down.
Gradually, the remaining few hundred thousand blade demon troops were all taken away.
The base was destroyed, and the soldiers here needed to leave the planet to rest. Even the mining regions that they had taken over before had to be handed over.
Without the supply from a base, it was impossible for a few mining bases to guard the caves.
After the blade demon troops left, the last s.h.i.+p landed behind the powerful blade demons.
Sisiliya and the others didn’t enter the s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p immediately. They trained their gazes at Lu Ze who was behind Nangong Jing. Their eyes were br.i.m.m.i.n.g with killing intent.
Seeing their stares, Lu Ze chose to wave at them amicably. He even showed a smile.
He really hoped their s.p.a.ce s.h.i.+p would be smashed by an asteroid…
The blade demons saw that Lu Ze dared to laugh at them, and their faces became hideous.
If it wasn’t for this human brat, they might not have lost here!
How dare he mock them?
If they didn’t have great self-control, they would’ve charged over already.
Eventually, Sisiliya took a deep look at Lu Ze and went in the s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p.
The humans saw the s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p rapidly ascend and disappear. After moments of silence, old Derry’s voice spread across the entire region. “We’ve won!”
Immediately, all the human troops rejoiced.
The cheers shook away the sand.
This was the victory of the human race!!
The beautiful journalist also smiled excitedly. “Victory! We won!!”
The audience watching on war site also rejoiced.
Although they weren’t there at the battlefield, tension occupied their spirits as they watched the entire thing.
It was a good thing no accidents occurred.
Their prayer was useful!
The journalist smiled. “This is a big victory! The headquarter base of the blade demons on the 25th planet is destroyed. For a long time, they will have no right to compete with us. At the same time, the missions of our warriors are complete.”
Then, her smile receded. “Later, the war site will publish the casualty list for this war.”
There were sacrifices in every war. Such was necessary and couldn’t be avoided.
While focusing on the eastern front due to Lu Ze, it appeared that the casualties were minor. However, in reality, the casualties wouldn’t be minor at all.
After every war, the casualty list would be published. One was to ensure that the families knew about the situation, and the other was to prevent a situation where the relatives of those martyrs would fail to receive the appropriate death benefits.
The reaction of the families of those soldiers differed. Some rejoiced that their family was safe while others prayed that their family would be safe.
In Lu Ze’s home, Lu Wen and the others closed the broadcast and relaxed.
Fu Shuya wiped her eye and felt relieved. “My good boy is fine…”
Lu Li and Alice felt powerless. They were too nervous before.
On the battlefield, old Derry watched the soldiers rejoice and cry. He didn’t disturb them.
Moments later, he continued. “Bring your dead fellows. We’ll return to base first.”
As soon as he said this, the soldiers fell silent, and they brought the bodies of their dead pals and boarded the s.h.i.+p.
Lu Ze felt complicated.
Death accompanied all those on the battlefield. Even their survival wasn’t guaranteed. There was still a risk of dying.
Lu Ze wanted to go on the s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p with the soldiers but was stopped by Nangong Jing.
Nangong Jing pulled Lu Ze in front of her and a.n.a.lyzed his body carefully.
After finding that he only seemed a little weak and had some minor injuries, she breathed a sigh of relief.
She promised Uncle Merlin. She felt a.s.sured that Lu Ze was fine.
This kid accomplished such an amazing feat this time. This made her proud too. She was about to be this kid’s teacher!
Nangong Jing was very excited, and she patted Lu Ze’s shoulder and grinned. “Not bad kid. Your merit is very big this time. Your teacher is proud of you!”
Lu Ze felt his shoulder was slapped by a T-Rex. His body shook with the pats, and his shoulder became numb.
He was speechless.
Luckily, it was him. If it was Lin Ling, she would be flattened with the pat.
At this moment, his spirit powered armor made a cracking sound. Under Nangong Jing’s pats, it finally crumbled, showing Lu Ze’s b.l.o.o.d.y body.
There was still an article of black clothing on him.
The wind blew over, and the several pieces of black cloth on his body swayed a little.
“…”
The atmosphere became very awkward.
Lu Ze: “…”
He wanted to eat a spirit fruit to calm himself down.
Oh my! What breed was this T-Rex??
The powerful beings, Lin Ling and the other squad members, as well as some soldiers, looked over.
Their eyes were very penetrating.
Lu Ze felt he was getting gooseb.u.mps.
He felt so embarra.s.sed with so many people looking at him.
He took out a set of clothes from his storage ring expressionlessly and put it on. Then, he looked at the stunned Nangong Jing who still had her hand out.
Nangong Jing seemed a little embarra.s.sed too. She scratched her head. “Ah, hahaha… this spirit powered armor is too unstable. You can get a new one. I’ll introduce you to a forging master. He will make one for you.”
Lu Ze’s mouth spasmed. His spirit powered armor was already about to break. Did she not have any clue whether her claw would crush the armor entirely?
At this moment, Lin Kuang whistled. “Kid, your physique is quite good?”
Lu Ze immediately looked vigilantly at Lin Kuang.
What did this guy want to do?
He showed an awkward yet polite smile. He didn’t know how to reply.
Lin Ling rolled her eyes. “Brother, what do you want to do?”
Lin Kuang’s smile stiffened. He laughed awkwardly. “I’m just messing with this kid.”
Then, his eyes lit up. “By the way, Lu Ze, how about you come to prodigy barrack? Just from your military merit and performance, you should be coming over! Only here can you show your excellence!”
Nangong Jing’s black eyes immediately flashed with golden light again. “Lin Kuang, do you want to fight?”
Even Luo Bingqing, who rarely spoke, said something. “The academy is fine too.”
Lin Kuang was planning to argue with Nangong Jing, but when Luo Bingqing said this, he immediately glanced at Luo Bingqing unhappily. “Wow, you ice block. When we ask you to talk you don’t talk, but now you are talking.”
“Just speaking the truth,” Luo Bingqing said plainly.
Meanwhile, Louisa came up to him and smiled. She spoke gently, “Lu Ze, the prodigy barrack is actually not bad, do you want to consider it?”
Lu Ze looked at this pretty girl with a warm smile. His face was embarra.s.sed. Just when he was about to reply, Nangong Jing pulled Louisa to the side.
Her eyes were wide open as she looked at Louisa in disbelief.
“I didn’t think you were like this, Louisa. Do you want to steal my student?! Intolerable!”
Louisa smiled. “Does your left hand still need treatment?”
Nangong Jing’s mouth spasmed. “Cough, um, yes.”
Louisa nodded with a smile. “I’ll treat you once we get back.”
Nangong Jing opened her mouth but eventually said nothing.
It was only now that Lu Ze realized Nangong Jing’s left hand was drooping.
His eyes flashed with shock. Was there such a powerful being amongst the blade demons who could break Nangong Jing’s arm?
He knew very clearly how strong Nangong Jing was. She was ranked at the very top even amongst young dukes.
Then, he realized that it wasn’t just Nangong Jing. Even Luo Bingqing’s, Lin Kuang’s and Louisa’s chi seemed weak compared to before.
Clearly, they had a heated battle.
He looked around at the other powerful beings. They pretty much all had injuries, and some had broken hands.
Even if they recover this part of the body with technology, they would need to cultivate that part again. They would need some time before recovering their battle power completely.
At this moment, all the troops went into the s.p.a.ce s.h.i.+p. Old Derry smiled. “Okay let’s talk about 2nd Lieutenant Lu Ze after we get back to the base. Let’s go back first.”
Everyone nodded. They were tired after that battle. What they need right now is rest.
Everyone got on the s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p, and the s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p took off towards the base.
