Chapter 174: Ripples of the Stars and Moon

Ji Xinghe didn't know what was going on in Jackson's mind, otherwise he would definitely let him 'come down' every day.

The first three epiphanies are indeed related to grief, but the fourth epiphany does not have any grief, and human beings have many other emotions that can be turned into strength in addition to turning grief into strength.

Such as responsibilities and obligations, such as love.

For Ji Xinghe, the power that Ji Rong Xinyue can bring him is actually unprecedented. Because he only has Ji Rong Xinyue left, he doesn't want to lose Ji Rong Xinyue.

"In the 66th operation period, the merit value has increased by 683, and the cumulative number of 116297 in this cycle is currently ranked eighth on the merit list."

The speed at which the rankings of the 66th operating section of Base 5 had risen so quickly, and after shocking the other mechanics many times, it had shocked everyone again.

They all knew that Ji Xinghe had an extra apprentice, and they had to teach this apprentice who was a special mecha warrior of the Federation alone every day. If there was no person to disturb Ji Xinghe's work, then how many people would be in the 66th operation interval now?

The people in charge of the merit list were interesting because they enlarged the top 10 list and showed the end of the cycle in the most prominent position.

"Five days, there are still five days, do you think Lieutenant Ji Xinghe can surpass Lieutenant Shen Mu and get the first place."

After so many days, the number one operation interval on the merit list is still the eighty-eighth in charge of Shen Mu.

"It's very difficult, Lieutenant Shen Mu's strength is very strong, and his operation range is also an elite gathering, there are still fewer people on Lieutenant Ji Xinghe's side, and there is a stupid big one who is interfering with Lieutenant Ji Xinghe, it is estimated that Lieutenant Ji Xinghe will be able to reach the top three in five days."

Hearing the title of Silly Big Man, everyone who was chatting laughed, they had never thought that there would be such a day when they could call a Federation Special Mecha Warrior Silly Big Man. But Jackson's performance in the operation interval is really stupid, needless to say about the scene at the beginning, Every night after that, people working overtime in the mechanic area can see him squatting in the operation area of No. 66, learning boxing with the decent Ji Rong Xinyue.

Yes, Jackson is learning boxing with Ji Rong Xinyue.

Ji Rong Xinyue in the evening does not need to go to class, the training time is in the afternoon, she often brings a few friends to come over to see her grandfather, and at the same time take the opportunity to drive Xingyue.

Jackson, who was in the training area one time, saw the moves used by Ji Rong Xinyue in the actual combat drill, so he asked for advice in the machine repair area every night, and he felt that Ji Rong Xinyue would definitely be a family heirloom that Ji Xinghe was unwilling to pass on.

In fact, it is also because of boredom, the communication between the base and the outside world comes and goes after the dust storm, and the risk of transportation has also increased a lot, spaceships and warships have not appeared in Base 5 for a long time, and the convoy that only appears every few days has sent mechs that need to be repaired after passing through the dust storm.

It can also be seen from this that the form of war in the dust storm is still very tense.

"If it weren't for that stupid big man, I think Lao Ji would definitely be able to get second, and hopefully hit first."

"I can't say that, Lao Ji is not just a mechanic like us, he can improve Major Jackson's strength, in fact, it is more valuable than repairing mechas."

"I know, but Lao Ji said before that he wanted to take the first place, if he can't get it......"

In fact, Ji Xinghe didn't say that he wanted to take the first place, he just said to the people in the 66th operation interval that the goal was the first. But as it spreads, it becomes that Ji Xinghe must take the first place.

"What does it matter if you can't get it? I am convinced of Lao Ji's strength, Lieutenant Shen Mu has taken the first place for such a long time, if you ask him if he is convinced by Lao Ji, he will definitely not dare to say that he is not convinced. ”

"Hahaha, yes, if you don't accept it, you will be beaten. He said every day that he was Lao Ji's apprentice, and said that Lao Ji was his apprentice, and he didn't know what he was talking about, anyway, Lao Ji must have nothing wrong with beating him. ”

He said that in kung fu, Lao Ji is his master. But in terms of mechanics, he is Lao Ji's master, in fact, there is no problem, Lao Ji himself said that he has learned a lot of mechanical knowledge from Shen Mu. ”

"I still hope that Lao Ji can take the first place, a pot of tofu crucian carp, Xinxin should have never eaten it, right?"

"I guess no, this crucian carp is fresh, and the tofu is not ground out of the soybeans grown by our base, but the soybeans shipped from the Azure Star, which must taste delicious."

"I've eaten, my dad used to go out fishing every day, and I vomited, so I still gave this first place to Lao Ji."

"You let a fart, your operation range is thirteenth, Lao Ji needs you to let it."

"I'm not going to rob it, okay? If I work overtime, it's not necessarily, let's work normally for the past five days, everyone is tired, and we can't be tired at the last minute. ”

"I let it, I'm seventh, I can let it." One mechanic said, "But don't think about it, I don't want to be kidnapped by you for standing on the moral high ground." ”

"Tsk, what are you talking about, you can't let Lao Ji surpass you, I'm fifth, I'm really letting you."

The mechanics began to argue at the top of the merit list over a pot of tofu crucian carp soup that was common on the Azure Star, and they were not competing for this pot of soup, but for giving this pot of soup to others.

But some people choose to let it, and some people choose not to let it, but they work overtime more desperately than before.

"I am convinced of Lieutenant Ji Xinghe's strength, not to mention the professional and technical level, but it is precisely because of this that I am convinced of the loss, so that Lieutenant Ji Xinghe can win with dignity."

Everyone has their own ideas, and you can't say who's right and who's wrong, it's just that the choices are different.

In the 66th operation interval of Ji Xinghe, after successfully rushing to the eighth place on the merit list, it only took one day to rush to the fourth place.

None of the top three conceded.

No one blames them, because their idea is actually very reasonable, if Ji Xinghe can't win in a dignified manner, then the pot of tofu crucian carp soup will definitely not taste very good.

In fact, they all knew that if Ji Xinghe won, they would definitely not choose to drink that pot of soup, but would give it to the twenty-four children of Base Five. Children don't think about whether it smells good or not, because they haven't drunk it and don't know what it looks like.

"Lieutenant Shen Mu's merit value has exceeded 150,000, the second and third are both close to 140,000, Lao Ji has just exceeded 120,000 now, and there are still four days to go, it seems that ...... It's really beyond that. ”

"Yes, it's a pity, if Lao Ji comes back three days early, if there is no stupid big man, Lao Ji can really take the first place."

"Lao Ji doesn't spend all his time repairing mechas, so it's better for him to have two more jobs than us. Well, three copies, there is also a work of actual machine testing. ”

"What are you talking about, Lao Ji hasn't stopped yet, he's still repairing, and there are still four days to go, maybe ......"

"But Lieutenant Shen Mu, they didn't stop, they couldn't catch up. Why don't we go and help Lao Ji? ”

"This, won't it be unfair to Lieutenant Shen Mu."

"There are more people in them than Lao Ji, and they are the ones who are unfair."

"Don't take it seriously, the reward of the merit list itself is the nature of play."

"I don't care, I'll help Lao Ji."

Some of the mechanics in the discussion left the merit list and went to the sixty-sixth operation section of Ji Xinghe. Where to repair mecha is repair, in fact, there is no difference, it is only related to a pot of crucian carp soup.

As soon as they got closer, they saw Ji Xinghe who was repairing the mecha, and judging by his expression and movements, he was not affected by the ranking of the merit list at all. And the stupid big Jackson, who in the eyes of many mechanics and influenced Ji Xinghe, squatted on the side with some strange horse steps.

It's like a human, and it's like a mecha.

When everyone was about to go over and tell Ji Xinghe that they were here to help, they saw Ji Xinghe and Jackson both looking at their bracelets at the same time, that is, between breaths, and the two of them suddenly ran wildly.

Before anyone could react, they disappeared into the mechanic area.

"Huh? What's the situation? ”

"Why did Lao Ji go?"

The mechanics in the No. 66 operation section were also confused: "Huh? What about my master? What about the Master who was still here just now? ”

"I don't know, I heard an alarm sounding on Master's bracelet, and when I turned my head to look, Master ran away."

"Where's Jackson?"

"Jackson ran away too."

"Is it ......?"

The truth of the facts is not difficult to guess, because Ji Xinghe and Jackson both have the same identity, a federal special mecha warrior.

There was only one reason that could make them run wild without any explanation, and they needed to fight.

"Is it outside our base? The dogs of the empire are coming? ”

"It's not ours, otherwise there will definitely be an alarm."

"It should be that other places need Lao Ji them, I remember that Lao Ji joined the Orbital Airborne Mecha Corps before."

"What about Reporter Su? Ask him. ”

"He's going to pick up Xinxin from school."

"Then Lao Ji went to fight, didn't he say goodbye to Xinxin?"

“……”

Suddenly silent everyone, it didn't take long to see Su He, he took Ji Rong Xinyue to the machine repair area, Ji Rong Xinyue, who is usually very polite, greeted everyone very politely this time, and then got into Xingyue's cockpit.

Listening to her crisp hello and looking at the polite smile on her face, everyone knew that she was actually unhappy.

"It's Base Six." Su He said with a serious expression: "The empire seems to have discovered the precise location of Base No. 6, and the defensive forces left in Base No. 6 before are seriously insufficient, and Lao Ji and Major Jackson are going to support Base No. 6." ”

"Base Six? It's nearly a thousand kilometers away from us, and now there is a dust storm, how can they go. ”

"Take a solo starship directly to space, and then land in orbit."

"Riding a lone starship in a dust storm? And to parachute directly from space to Base Six? That's too dangerous, isn't it? ”

Everyone sensed the seriousness of the matter, if it wasn't for the urgent need for support, how could the Federation let the two special mechs take such a risk? Ji Xinghe didn't want to say it, these people all knew that Jackson had more than eighty gold stars, and he was very close to becoming an ace mecha warrior.

"It's not dangerous, they're on a modified individual starship, and the weapon systems have all been dismantled, just to transport them to space."

After Su He finished explaining to everyone, he asked a little strangely, "Why are you all here?" ”

"We ...... Let's pick up Lao Ji's class. ”

"Yes, we're here to pick up Lao Ji's class."

On this day, there were suddenly seven more professional-level mechanics in the 66th operation area of Ji Xinghe, and they wanted to help Ji Xinghe get the first place, and they still had four days.

On this day, the operation interval that ranked second and third in the merit list of the machine repair area of the No. 5 base suddenly announced a day off.

On this day, Shen Mu, who should have let Ji Xinghe the most, chose to continue to work overtime, and his working hours on this day were longer than any previous day. It's not like you want to guarantee your first place, but it's like you're going to faint out of exhaustion.

On this day, Ji Rong Xinyue sat alone in Xingyue's cockpit, and suddenly spoke out after being silent for a long time.

"Xingyue."

"I'm here."

"You say, if I just told my grandfather that you should stay with me, would he stay?"

"Yes, the lord will definitely stay."

"But I didn't let my grandfather stay, I told him to go and support Base Six, where there were my mother's colleagues, and a lot of people I knew, people who had given me gifts. Am I doing something wrong, you say? ”

"My princess is never wrong, if everyone except the lord says that my princess is wrong, then it must be the world that is wrong."

"Did Uncle Shen Mu teach you this?"

"Yes."

"Xingyue, you say, if Grandpa died because I asked him to fight, will Dad and Mom blame me?"

This question was obviously not in Xingyue's Q&A mechanic, and it didn't know how to answer it.

"Xingyue, answer me."

"I won't blame you." I don't know how to answer, so I will answer based on one of the core laws of the Q&A mechanism, and Ji Rong Xinyue will never be wrong.

"Yes, they'll blame me, because I'll blame myself." Ji Rong Xinyue's voice was a little angry: "Xingyue, you lied to me. ”

"Xingyue will never lie to the princess." Xingyue's intelligence core has the ability to sense and analyze tone and emotion, and the system it is running on suddenly has a ripple that shouldn't be there.

"Then you tell me, will grandpa be sacrificed?"

Xingyue, who was supposed to answer no immediately, didn't answer at the first time, because it just knew that it shouldn't lie to Ji Rong Xinyue, so it wanted to be sure of its answer.

In the cockpit, which was silent for a short time, the firm voice of Xingyue suddenly sounded.

"No, the lord will not be sacrificed."

"Thank you."

Ji Rong Xinyue was silent again, sitting quietly in the cockpit where she was alone, and she didn't know how long it took for her to suddenly speak.

"Xingyue, you take me out of the base, and we go to the surface for training."

"The lord is not here, I can't take you out of the base."

"But before grandpa left, he told me, let me train well, and going to the surface with you is training."

"The surface is dangerous."

"There are only dust storms on the surface, there are no enemies, and the place where grandpa goes is dangerous, but grandpa still has to go, and I still have to let grandpa go. Xingyue, you said you would protect me, if you can't even protect me in the duststorm, then how will you protect me on the battlefield in the future? ”

Xingyue was silent for three seconds: "The Lord is not here, and we can't get permission to leave the base. ”

"Xingyue, you lied again, grandpa gave you the permission to enter and leave the base freely."

"Xiao Xiao Su is next to him, he is watching us."

"He's not Xiao Xiaosu, he's Uncle Su, don't listen to all the words of Uncle Shen Mu. Xingyue, wait for me, let's go out at night. ”

Xingyue didn't immediately agree, nor did it continue to refuse, it chose to contact Second Lieutenant Shen Mu, which was a built-in setting in its system in advance, and when it couldn't contact Ji Xinghe, the lord, it could only contact Shen Mu to get relevant instructions.

But...... Ji Rong Xinyue just said, don't listen to all the words of Shen Mu, so which words can be listened to and which words can't be listened to?

Conflict of instructions arises, and ripples in its program are amplified.

Xingyue, who did not have any outward manifestation, made its choice in silence.

It/her, said.

"Okay."
