It would take some time to travel from the main star of the Kedama system to the training planet, but Han Junzhan wished he could appear by Luo Lingxing’s side the next second. Although he knew that with Luo Lingxing’s skills and cultivation, those zerg could not harm him in the slightest, he still couldn’t help but worry.
When Han Junzhan arrived at the training planet, the instructors at the military academy had already received the message Han Junzhan had sent earlier and were urgently recalling the students who had gone to participate in the training. Most of the students had been safely brought back, and the rest were still being contacted urgently.
Luo Lingxing was clearly not among the students who were brought back. Han Junzhan entered the Forest of Trails almost without stopping, and then dialed Luo Lingxing’s terminal, trying to contact him, but there was no response.
“Go to the heart of the forest and XXX.” Han Junzhan said to the person piloting the spaceship, looking at a page on the terminal.
“Yes.” The spaceship sped toward the location Han Junzhan had mentioned, which was also where Luo Lingxing’s team was located.
Luo Lingxing’s terminal and Han Junzhan’s terminal were actually connected. As long as both parties agreed, they could check each other’s location. Under normal circumstances, in order to show respect for the other party, they would not take the initiative to check each other’s location. However, the situation was urgent now, and Han Junzhan couldn’t care about that anymore.
Zhang Xuan and the others also came along on this mission. Although they knew Luo Lingxing’s strength, this was Luo Lingxing’s first time facing the zerg, and they were very worried.
While individual zerg were not particularly strong, they typically operated in groups of thousands. The sheer scale of thousands of zerg moving together could instill fear in someone facing them for the first time. Even a person with great strength might be intimidated by psychological factors.
Therefore, they fully understood their leader’s feelings at that moment.
Meanwhile, Luo Lingxing, whom everyone was concerned about, was fighting with his teammates against the zerg. Although the zerg were afraid of Luo Lingxing’s spiritual power, and their speed was slowed down because of it, giving everyone a chance to escape, they quickly caught up again. Moreover, as if they had intelligence, the zerg would avoid Luo Lingxing and attack the others instead, as if they knew that no one else had spiritual power except for Luo Lingxing.
Luo Lingxing was the only one with spiritual power here, but he couldn’t reveal too much of his abilities or use them on a large scale, so for a time, everyone was at a disadvantage.
“Damn it, how can there be zerg here? These damned zerg!” Gao Zhiquan cursed angrily as he fought against the zerg.
Every citizen of the Empire loathed the zerg and wanted to eradicate them as soon as possible. After all, these damned insects had destroyed too many human homes and killed too many innocent people. They were simply a major pest in the universe.
None of the mechas had firearms on them, only temporary melee weapons that they had found thanks to Luo Lingxing’s suggestion. So they had to use swords and other weapons to hack at these disgusting insects one by one.
The zerg’s bodies were incredibly soft and slimy, making them a nightmare to deal with using melee weapons. Once you killed a zerg, the slime it released would stick to your weapon, and some of it was even corrosive. If this continued, their last weapons would be corroded away, and then it would be their mechas’ turn.
Gao Zhiquan and the others weren’t unaware of their instructor’s evacuation notice. The main problem was that they were unlucky enough to encounter the zerg directly. Their instructor would need some time to come and pick them up, so they had to persevere during this time. “Stop complaining. The teachers will be here soon. Hang in there. Kill as many zerg as you can. You might not have this opportunity again,” Lu Yunming said.
“Yes, we were supposed to go to the battlefield after joining the army, so being able to get in touch with these insects early is a good opportunity. We must kill them all!” Liu Quanming said excitedly, brandishing his sword with great force.
“Besides, we still have our boss here, what are we afraid of?” Although Jia Yunpeng did not participate in the battle with the insects, he was still excited and wished he could join the fight himself. Unfortunately, he did not have a mecha, and it was even more impossible for him to fight the zerg with his bare hands.
Jia Yunpeng’s words immediately calmed the restless people
Yeah, they still had their boss. What are they afraid of? Even if their weapons were corroded, they still had their boss. The boss was so powerful that these bugs were no match for him. Instead of thinking about this nonsense, they should take this opportunity to kill more bugs, these damn bugs!
When Han Junzhan and the others arrived, they saw Gao Zhiquan and his men acting like madmen, unstoppable and invincible. They killed whichever insect they caught without any method, leaving the insects helpless for a time.
Upon seeing this, Zhang Xuan immediately chuckled and said, “Wow, as expected of Young Master Luo’s team! Look at their momentum, they seem to be able to kill any god or Buddha they encounter!”
“When we came here, I was worried that these kids would be traumatized by seeing the zerg in person, but now I realize I really underestimated them,” Lin Mingying said with a smile.
These kids performed much better than they did back then. You know, when they first encountered the zerg, they were so disgusted that they didn’t eat for a whole day. Later, when they fought the zerg and saw those soft, slimy, oozing corpses, they felt even more nauseous and it took them a long time to get used to it.
“But they should all experience it, otherwise they’ll all think being a soldier is fun,” Zhao Chongzhuo said.
Without saying a word, Han Junzhan stared intently at the person on the outer edge of the insects, who seemed to be feared by the insects.
Zhang Xuan and the others followed Han Junzhan’s gaze and were immediately surprised.
“Oh my, have these zerg become sentient?” They even knew that Young Master Luo was not someone to be trifled with. Look, almost none of those zergs attacked him.
“Stop talking nonsense. Those kids are about to collapse. Hurry up and go down to rescue them,” Lin Mingying said, rolling his eyes at Zhang Xuan.
“You didn’t go down yourself either,” Zhang Xuan muttered under his breath, but still piloted his mecha off the spaceship to provide support.
Gao Zhiquan and the others felt their strength getting weaker and weaker, and they were about to give up. If they hadn’t known that Luo Lingxing was right behind them and would protect them, they would have collapsed long ago. But even with their potential being unleashed, their bodies had reached their limits. Now, even lifting their arms was difficult. There were swarms of zerg corpses around them, but compared to that, there were even more living zerg, which were still continuously swarming towards them.
Just then, the long-absent sound of heavy weapons rang out, and a large number of zerg were instantly turned into roasted zerg, charred black. In this one blast, the number of zerg killed was even more than all the zerg they had worked so hard for so long. This result left Gao Zhiquan and the others, who were exhausted, speechless.
One cannon shot was equivalent to the number they had killed with all their might. If they had had these firearms earlier, would they still be in such a sorry state?
No, this wasn’t the time to be thinking about these things. Who fired that shell just now? Didn’t they say all their weapons had been put away? Didn’t they say all their weapons had been put away?
Not only Gao Zhiquan noticed, but everyone else did too. They then realized that while they were busy killing these hateful zerg, a spaceship had unknowingly appeared above their heads, and many mechas were jumping off the spaceship and joining the battle against the zerg.
“Has the instructor arrived?” Gao Zhiquan asked blankly, because the mechas’ battle was so cool. Every launch was perfectly timed, as if it had been carefully calculated, and every time they killed the most zerg. “No, that’s not the instructor’s ship, that’s…” Lu Yunming looked up at the ship above him, saw the familiar insignia on the hull, and immediately became excited, his voice filled with barely suppressed excitement, “That’s the First Legion’s ship, Major General Han has arrived.”
“Major General Han?” the others murmured, then showed the same excitement as Lu Yunming.
Han Junzhan was an idol of the entire empire, especially these military academy students. Almost every one of them was a die-hard fan of Han Junzhan, and they all hoped to become soldiers like Han Junzhan.
“Major General Han came to rescue us! This is amazing! I never thought I would be able to see Major General Han up close. It’s like a dream,” Li Mingqi said excitedly, with a lovestruck smile on his face.
“Actually, it’s to be expected. After all, the boss is still here, how could Major General Han not come?” Liu Quanming said.
“That makes sense. Major General Han is the boss’s partner. So, if we follow the boss, will we be able to see Major General Han more often?” Li Mingqi couldn’t help but ask. He really admired Han Junzhan very much. It could be said that he joined the military academy and became a military doctor because of Han Junzhan.
“Of course,” Liu Quanming replied.
Han Junzhan was the first to jump off the spaceship into his mecha, but he didn’t fire directly at the zerg. Instead, he immediately went to Luo Lingxing’s side and protected him behind him.
“Junzhan, you’re here,” Luo Lingxing said, without any surprise or doubt, as if he had known all along that Han Junzhan was coming.
“Mn.” Han Junzhan replied very simply. Although the conversation was very ordinary and concise, the atmosphere between the two was so intimate that no third person could possibly enter.
