Qiu Zijun said with some embarrassment: "At that time, I was anxious for them to tell the whereabouts of my comrades-in-arms, so I used bazookas to wash the floor first......"

Xia Hatsumi laughed: "It's good to use a bazooka!" Unexpectedly, Second Lieutenant Qiu, you look polite, but you are also a phobia of lack of firepower! Same disease! Same disease! ”

Qiu Zijun carefully observed Xia Chujian, and only then did he relax until he was sure that he was really not angry.

Xia Chujian has never changed her voice, so Qiu Zijun has always thought that she is a man.

The three of them stood in front of the burned thatched hut, and Xia Chujian asked Mao Yonggui to give her the nameplate that had melted into a ball and it was difficult to distinguish each other's identities.

She planned to let Qilu try it with its forging ability against the sky to see if she could restore the various nameplates.

Then bring it back to the Beichen Empire and hand it over to the Special Security Bureau.

Qiu Zijun looked at Mao Yonggui and the others were busy, and asked in a low voice, "You have brought so many genetic evolutionaries?" ”

Xia Chujian lowered his head to look at her: "...... How can you see it? ”

Her sentence is actually a question sentence, questioning why she came to this conclusion.

But there is also an ambiguous sentence.

Qiu Zijun really understood it according to the ambiguity.

"Those hundreds of mechwarriors are proof of that," she said. Because ordinary marines can't wear mechs. ”

This is the customary rule of Starfleet, and everyone thinks so, but Xia Chujian disagrees.

She still disagreed, saying, "Then you guessed wrong." That's my Star Marine. ”

"On my starship, every Marine is equipped with a mecha."

"Also, in the environment of Morisawa Star, if you don't give ordinary people mechas, do you want them to die?"

Qiu Zijun never seemed to have thought about it from this angle.

She muttered, "But the combat uniforms and military exoskeletons are also protected from radiation...... Why do you have to be a mecha? ”

Xia Chujian said: "This is a matter of opinion. Besides, can the effectiveness of combat uniforms and military exoskeletons be compared with all-round protection mechas? ”

Qiu Zijun nodded thoughtfully: "Of course not." ”

She looked at Xia Chujian calmly and said, "But those starry sky marines have never touched mechas, and in a short period of time, they can't control mechas smoothly." ”

Xia Chujian asked rhetorically, "Have you let them try?" ”

Qiu Zijun shook his head blankly: "Of course not." In Starfleet, no one would risk violating military discipline and letting a Star Marine learn to master a mech. ”

Xia Chujian smiled, and originally wanted to say that this article was not written in military law and military discipline.

Because this is just the unspoken rule of the so-called "conventional".

If someone else said so, Xia Chujian would definitely be scared.

But Qiu Zijun gave her too good an impression, and she didn't want to embarrass this girl.

And in Xia's first sight, Qiu Zijun just didn't have the same ability to pick thorns as her.

People are behaving as soldiers, why does she bother to scare others?

Xia Chujian quietly changed the topic and said, "Second Lieutenant Qiu, what mission are you doing when you come to Morisawa Xing?" ”

Qiu Zijun immediately said: "Catch the Wanshou Flying Fish." What about you? ”

Xia Hatsumi said, "...... The same. But we've been here for a day, and we haven't even seen the shadow of the Flying Fish. ”

Qiu Zijun couldn't help but smile at this time, and said, "It's only been a day, so I'm not in a hurry." ”

"We were also lucky to catch a longevity flying fish the next day!"

Xia Chumi seemed to be very interested in this matter, and said with interest, "Really? How the hell did you get caught? Can you tell me more about it? ”

Qiu Zijun spread his hands and said, "To be honest, I don't know how they caught it. ”

"I was on the side of the coral tree and took a lot of pictures."

"When I returned to the airship in the evening, they said that the mission was completed and that they were going to return."

"Then I went to find Sister Zhang and Xiaohui, and planned to let them have dinner with me."

"But I can't find them in the cabin on the ground floor of the airship......"

"I can't find them in any of the airship's cabins."

"Later, when I asked others, they said that these starry sky marines had been ambushed by the dead......

"I begged them to come to the rescue, but they said there was no need to fight with the dead......"

"They won't save it, I'll save it!"

"So I found a small combat aircraft and sneaked off the airship."

Qiu Zijun continued: "At that time, I just thought that this planet was not big, and I should be able to find it after looking for a while. ”

"As soon as I got out of the airship, the airship flew away."

"I messaged them and no one ...... back"

"As soon as my heart was crossed, I thought, if I can't find Sister Zhang and them, I won't go back!"

"My family feels sorry for me, and when they find out that I am missing, they will not give up."

"These people will have to come and pick me up."

Xia Chujian thought to himself after hearing this, it turned out that this person was relied on.

The family loves her and will not let her disappear in vain.

Actually, it's the same for yourself!

If she suddenly disappeared, not only the bunch at home, but also the master and the leader Meng Guanghui would not ignore her!

But those starry sky marines, they also have family members and friends......

Just because their family members and friends are ordinary people, and they don't have as much energy as her and Qiu Zijun's family members and friends, so they can be sacrificed in vain?

Xia Chu saw the anger in his heart and asked calmly: "Second Lieutenant Qiu is a kind person, who is the person in charge of your military operation this time?" ”

Qiu Zijun said: "It's Major Rong Zhongruo. ”

Xia Chujian thought to himself, sure enough, it was him.

The female Marine who died was still very sharp and smart.

Xia Chujian continued quietly: "This time the matter is very important. Will you report your person in charge this time? ”

Qiu Zijun immediately said seriously: "I must report it!" Because that military operation was a complete failure! ”

"Although we hunted the Longevity Flying Fish, we lost so many Star Marines!"

Xia Chu's eyes flashed slightly, and he said: "But the starry sky marines do not account for the number of battle losses, if you say so, those people will not take it seriously." ”

Qiu Zijun frowned and said, "So that's the case...... I said that so many Star Marines were ambushed, and they didn't take it seriously. ”

Xia Chujian raised his eyebrows: "You don't know this?" ”

Qiu Zijun said calmly: "I just joined the army a month ago. This is my first time on a mission, and Sister Zhang and they take special care of me, I just want to repay the favor. ”

Natsu Hatsumi sighed, this is a recruit who has not been affected by the hierarchy in Starfleet.

No wonder!

Qiu Zijun frowned and pondered, and asked, "Why don't the Starry Sky Marines occupy the battle damage quota?" Is their life not their life? ”

Xia Chujian put away the flamethrower on his left arm and said lightly: "This is for the upper echelons of the military department." Didn't they set these rules? ”

"And ......" Xia Chujian looked at the indignant female second lieutenant and said, "I heard some soldiers say that these marines were exchanged for them, and they were not ambushed by the soldiers and lost the battle. ”

What are you kidding, even if they are really ambushed, these starry sky marines will beat those indigenous martyrs every minute!

Qiu Zijun was taken aback and said in a lost voice, "Won't it?!" How could it be an exchange?! That's impossible! ”

Natsu Hatsumi looked at her and fully understood her state of mind that refused to believe.

Nor to explain, waiting for her to figure it out for herself.

But Qiu Zijun couldn't figure it out, and said in despair: "This is impossible...... I don't believe it...... The captains, pilots, and officers are all very good, how could they do such a thing? ”

"These people are also our comrades-in-arms!"

Because of the word "comrade-in-arms", Xia Chujian chose to believe her, and silently released the video she recorded with the Shao Si Ming mecha camera.

From the first time she saw the starry airship in the summer, her camera was working.

There may be more information videos taken along the way than the military department.

Of course, these videos were actually taken by Qilu.

Qilu needs this information to make logical judgments.

And what Xia Chujian wants is just evidence.

When Qiu Zijun saw those martyrs outside the pit say those words, the whole person collapsed.

She covered her mouth, tears falling down her cheeks.

The already delicate face looks weak and strong at this time.

Even Xia Chujian couldn't help but feel pity.

It's a pity that she is still wearing a three-meter-tall mecha, so she can't hug Qiu Zijun or pat her on the shoulder.

So Xia Chujian didn't speak, just stood quietly aside, waiting for Qiu Zijun's mood to calm down.

At this moment, Xia Hatsumi suddenly felt a tremor of air currents in the air behind him.

The sensation was very slight, like a butterfly brushing against her helmet or a leaf landing on her mech's shoulder.

If it were an ordinary person, no one would care about this feeling.

But when I first saw Xia, I felt something was wrong.

She soared into the air, and the explosive ability of the black silver mecha was not comparable to that of a conventional mecha.

The speed activated at that moment set off a huge airflow fluctuation, knocking Qiu Zijun standing next to her to the ground.

And it was precisely because of Xia Chujian's actions that two sniper bullets swished past the place where she and Qiu Zijun were standing just now.

Natsu Chujian flew upwards and dodged the sniper bullet that used a powerful muffler.

Qiu Zijun was purely lucky.

Xia Chujian saw the air currents set off in the air, and she was knocked to the ground, and by mistake, she also dodged the sniper bullet that was fired at her.

Bang!

The two sniper shells passed through the clearing, hitting the two coral trees in front of them.

I heard a loud bang, and the stalks of the two coral trees were blown out of holes the size of their heads.

The entrance to the cave soon emitted fire, black smoke, and then quickly extinguished.

These trees are the result of the mutation of corals on the seabed, and they look like trees, but they are not plants, but animals.

The trunk of these coral trees, which is still the secretion of dead polyps, is mainly composed of calcium carbonate.

The branches on the outside of the trunk are actually social polyps.

When two sniper projectiles penetrate the outer layer of polyps, causing them to burn, but burn to the inner trunk, they do not continue.

Because the main stem of those coral trees is made of calcium carbonate, which is non-flammable.

As a result, the fire was quickly extinguished, and only black smoke rose from the colorful coral trees.

Xia Chujian narrowed his eyes and said to himself, "...... It turned out to be a sniper bomb with an incendiary element. ”

"This kind of weapon is a bit advanced...... Could it be that there are other genetic evolutionaries here? ”

If the mecha on her body is not a Shao Siming made of special metal, it is just an ordinary mecha made of conventional metal.

And that kind of incendiary sniper projectile, also called armor-piercing incendiary bomb, can definitely blow up conventional mechas.

This is the first update, and I almost forgot to upload it. Good night, ladies and gentlemen!

The second shift at one o'clock in the afternoon.
