Three days later.
The reconstruction and cleanup work of the Angelica Market is still in full swing. In some of the cleared blocks in the west of the city, steel buildings that resemble supply depots but have a bit of underground residential buildings like mine bases have been erected.
When the modular building gradually took on the outline and shadow of a town, finally, waves of typhoons mixed with scattered heavy raindrops finally blew towards the coastal land where Guixi Market is located.
Even if there is no weather forecast, it is easy to tell from the weather conditions that a heavy rainstorm mixed with a typhoon is coming soon.
However, whether it's windy or raining, it doesn't prevent a certain bad little girl head of state from eating, drinking, having fun and sleeping.
Especially sleeping well is the key point!
Since helping a group of idiots successfully win the Gui market and lay a better foundation for development, her life has quickly returned to the kind of sleeping until she wakes up naturally, not doing much work, and then returning to work.
I pay great attention to saving food and often skip breakfast and lunch to enjoy an environmentally friendly life.
Isn’t this?
"Oh..."
(0`)
"Uh-huh, uh-huh..."
(﹏)
Although it was windy and expected to rain heavily today, it did not affect her sleep until late in the afternoon. Then, she fell asleep while only wearing her favorite casual red skirt with a hood.
Stretching and sleepy-eyed, she opened the door and walked out of the door of her palace-like spaceship, the 'Xiaobai', and then appeared in the busy mine base with a very lazy attitude.
"..."
(っ-)
As the head of state, Anne certainly did not choose to live in the already established Guixu New City District (Xicheng District). This was not due to safety concerns.
It's because, after all, it stinks too much there!
So far, the air quality and environment in the ruins of Guixi Market are not very good. In addition, the newly built city has just built two streets. The population situation is very crowded, and the municipal functions are still very simple, with only basic functions.
Food, accommodation, living conditions, delicious food and fun are basically not available, so she would not choose to go to a place like that to join in the fun!
Although the base is relatively noisy, the sound insulation effect of her Xiaobai spacecraft is excellent. As long as she doesn't want to hear it, Xiaobai guarantees that not even one decibel of noise will be transmitted to her room. Therefore, for her, even if
In the busy and bustling mine base, there is no need to worry too much about the environment for living and resting.
Of course, all of the above are minor problems.
It was just like the strong wind that was blowing outside and the scattered heavy raindrops mixed in. Even if it was about to rain heavily, that kind of thing would have no impact on her, Head of State Anne.
"Eh?"
|o`)
"Those guys are..."
()
After rubbing her eyes for a while, to her surprise, Annie, who was still a little sleepy, looked up and saw six very familiar guys preparing to do something on a tarmac not far away.
From their heavily armed postures and the fact that there is a modified stealth medical transport aircraft next to them, it is not difficult to guess that they seem to be preparing for a certain mission?
"Alas!"
(ì_í)
"Aren't those six of their idiots?"
(ω)
And when Annie took a closer look and realized that the six guys were actually the group of Sister Wang Qing, Uncle Awen and Miss Liu Li, she suddenly came to her senses.
"strangeness!"
(⊙o⊙*)
"Didn't Sister Wang Qing say that they have all been promoted, even the team has been disbanded, and they no longer have to go on missions?"
(^)
Then, Annie remembered what someone had said to her a few days ago, and the more she looked at it, the more she felt that she had been deceived. Without even thinking about it, she strode angrily toward the guys who were discussing something in low voices.
The aircraft rushed past the tarmac in the strong wind.
"!!"
"ah!"
"Ann, Head of State Anne?"
"salute!"
"Hello, Führer!"
Soon, when several people saw Anne's arrival, they naturally stood at attention and saluted together with the surrounding ground staff and the pilots of the medical transport aircraft.
"You're here again..."
"Oh no!"
"I don't mean anything else!"
"real!"
And a big machine gunner who accidentally said the wrong thing had to explain himself hurriedly for fear of being resented.
"Uncle Awen!"
(^o^)/
"And sisters Wang Qing and Liu Li?"
()
Fortunately, Annie was too lazy to pay attention to the big man McQueen. She just looked at a few people present, and then asked strangely:
"You've all been promoted, haven't you? Why do you still need to gather together and go out?"
(˙o˙)
"Do you still have a standard six-man commando configuration?"
()
There is no doubt that the situation of these people is the same as last time, and they must be ready to attack again, so of course she wants to find out.
"..."
"..."
"..."
The three people named by Annie looked at each other, and then, at the signal of the captain, Awen, who now had the rank of captain, Wang Qing had to step forward and patiently explained with a wry smile:
"Isn't this because there is an emergency?"
"Three days ago, a battle occurred in a jungle about two hundred kilometers away from us. One of our Liberator gunships, No. 067, had a battle with the subspace demons, and then suddenly crashed and disappeared mysteriously."
"You should have heard about that, right?"
Having said this, Wang Qing stopped and asked rhetorically.
"No. 067?"
()
"Sounds a little familiar..."
(′～`●)
Annie seemed to have heard of Gunship No. 067 somewhere, but she couldn't remember it for a while. As for the battle two hundred kilometers away that the other party mentioned, she had never heard of it at all, and she didn't care at all.
"Then what?"
(c)
But that kind of thing was not important, so of course she quickly continued to ask.
"then……"
"A ground assault team that went to search and investigate also disappeared. No one was found alive or dead, and the strange thing is that there was no trace of the existence of demons in the area where they disappeared?"
"That situation naturally made the base very nervous, and then the commanders had to urgently dispatch a number of close-range remote-controlled drone aircraft carriers modified from stealth transport aircraft to conduct reconnaissance in that area."
"But the result is still nothing..."
"I heard that that incident made Commander Darius very angry, and many senior commanders were severely criticized and punished for it!"
Having said this, Wang Qing couldn't help but be a little stunned and felt a little worried about the next task.
"fortunately!"
"The hurricane artificially guided by the meteorological department finally arrived today."
"After the typhoon blew away the red mist, and after using the base's detection equipment, drones, and satellites for multiple scans and multiple close-range detections, we finally discovered: It turned out that there was a hidden and huge place in that place.
Because of the underground caves?”
"The demons very cunningly asked some psychics to set up a psychic barrier at the entrance of the cave. It can successfully evade and completely block the detection of drones. If the red mist hadn't been blown away, I'm afraid we would have really
Can’t find it!”
But she was worried, so Wang Qing still told her everything she knew. After all, the matter was now widely circulated, and the base never thought that the devil was so cunning and would use the underground cave covered by the dense forest.
Make a fuss.
"And then……"
"While discovering the huge underground cave and the hiding place of the demons, our satellite scan also discovered the crashed No. 067 hidden in it and the missing commandos. Although they were all dead, the pilot
But he's still alive and even sent a distress signal?"
"And the commanders of the base, after careful consideration, and finally after a mental evaluation of the base, feel that we are the only ones who can complete the rescue mission?"
"So, we were gathered together again, preparing to take advantage of the base to carry out a fusion strike on the underground cave where the demons were hiding, and kill the pilot before the base directly completely eliminated those demons and directly smashed all the opponent's conspiracies.
Get rescued."
"That's probably the situation."
That’s right!
Of course, those subspace demons secretly hiding and hiding in that huge cave must have an ulterior conspiracy, such as opening subspace rifts or portals, and then teleporting large-scale subspace demon clusters relatively far away from the base.
At a relatively close distance, and then suddenly rush out one day to launch a surprise attack on Guixi Market, there is no doubt about it!
But fortunately, an artificial typhoon came at this critical moment, and then the opponent was discovered by the base.
Next, no matter what conspiracy the other party has, or how many portals or subspace rifts the other party has opened in that cave, only one or more fusion weapons can solve the problem. There is no difficulty in that.
Done.
The only problem now is: in that cave, the gunboat pilot No. 067 is still alive, and even sent a distress message to the base after the red mist was blown away!
Since it was the opponent who was the first to discover traces of the devil and successfully attracted the attention of the base with his actions, and then successfully avoided a major crisis for the base, the commanders of the base cannot easily give up on such a great hero no matter what.
.
As a result, their tacit cooperation, outstanding achievements, and increasingly outstanding combat effectiveness, which was vaguely known as the strongest team in the entire base, were once again temporarily gathered together by the commanders, planning to conduct a rescue operation to deal with the large-scale attack at the base.
The demon in the cave successfully rescued the pilot before executing the devastating blow.
"So this is what it's like?"
()
After hearing what was going on and knowing why there was a sudden strong wind and heavy rain today, Annie nodded.
"That……"
(o°ω°o)
"I wish you success in your mission!"
╭()
Then, regardless of the expectant looks of several people present, Annie turned around and left without even thinking.
"??"
"ah?"
"this……"
"..."
"..."
Seeing that Annie left so simply instead of following him shamelessly like last time, several people looked at each other blankly and in confusion for a while, and then Wang Qing asked with a surprised and weird look:
"that……"
"Prince Anne, won't you come with us?"
You know, last time, Annie ran directly to the transport plane and couldn't get off the plane, but this time she turned around and left after listening. The difference between the two times was so big that even Wang
With Qing inside, it was difficult to turn around for a while.
"Don't go!"
()
"That doesn't sound fun!"
┐(‘~`；)┌
"You can just go by yourself, others don't want to go with you!"
(︶)
"goodbye!"
()
With that said, Annie saw that it was going to rain heavily soon, and without waiting for the other party to say anything else, she strode away quickly facing the strong wind, and had no intention of staying and chatting with those people.
"..."
"..."
"..."
"..."
"..."
"..."
Seeing this, the six people who had some expectations were of course speechless for a while, but no one dared to say anything more.
"Uh huh huh~"
()
After bidding farewell to those people, Annie of course continued humming songs and wandering around the base.
Sudden!
The communicator on her wrist vibrated, and then a holographic communication request popped up.
"Huh?"
()
"She's actually the hot Aunt Yanrong?"
(oωo)
Anne just stopped and took a casual look, then a surprised expression quickly appeared on her face, and then she quickly nodded to accept.
"Hi~!"
"Little Führer Anne, how are you doing lately?"
Soon, as a holographic communication interface opened in front of Annie, the face of a familiar beautiful aunt appeared in the communication interface, and the familiar voice of the other party came from the communication interface. Wasn't the other party the one who shamelessly insisted on Annie arranging a transport plane?
Who is that Hong Yanrong who ran away for the other party?
"Aunt Yanrong, is it really you?"
(˙o˙)
“They are very nice people!”
(-)
While responding to the other party, Anne hurriedly waved and didn't seem to hide the surprise in her voice. At the same time, she gave the other party a big smile.
"Really."
"Why can't it be me?"
"I am currently on one of our company's spaceships. I happened to pass by the Huagai planet. I saw that the situation on the planet was very bad, so I suddenly wanted to try to call you through communication. I didn't expect that the connection actually came through."
Then, without waiting for Annie to ask, Hong Yanrong took the initiative to explain the reason with a smile.
"I heard about it."
"Your base has achieved great success recently, right?"
"That's amazing, congratulations!"
"To be honest, I was shocked when I first got the news. I thought I heard it wrong!"
Immediately afterwards, while Hong Yanrong did not conceal the joy in her words, she also did not forget to sincerely congratulate Anne.
"Uh-huh!"
(c)
"Yes, we have successfully conquered Guiba Market, and those subspace demons have been driven away!"
(-)
There was nothing to hide about that kind of thing, so Anne admitted it directly and openly. After all, she had helped a lot.
"It really is!"
"Then I really have to congratulate you. I have been worried about you before..."
"very nice!"
Just like that, since both of them were the kind of people who had nothing to do after they were full, they started chatting politely, and even talked about some common things, such as: What are you going to the market for?
The food is delicious, the underground city in the mine base is fun, and a certain cook who was stranded in the base changed his job to become a tank soldier, etc.
"correct!"
|▽)
Suddenly, Annie remembered something and couldn't help but ask:
"Aunt Yanrong!"
()
"Why don't you return to this Canopy Star from another planet?"
()
"Now that the Gui Market Market has been recovered, most of the subspace demons in the city have been wiped out, the west of the city is now very safe, and your black market has been reopened!"
()
"You can come back now, and I can ask them to return that fun underground black market to you!"
()
Actually, from Annie's point of view, it doesn't matter whether the other party comes back or not. The important thing is: it's not very fun everywhere now. If the other party can come back and run the underground black market shelter again, maybe she will have another one in the future.
A good place to hang out with people, hang out and eat delicious food?
(…)
(●￣￣●)
"No..."
"Thanks!"
"I have no plans or need to go back yet?"
Unfortunately, before Annie could wait long, Hong Yanrong shook her head, and then she thought for a moment before hesitatingly said:
"Annie..."
"I know that you have won the victory and put in a lot of effort. The subspace demons currently returning to the market have been basically eliminated and driven away by you. Your base has indeed achieved great success. That is a fact!
"
"but!"
"Don't forget, there are hundreds of cities of various sizes similar to Guixi Market on the entire Huagai Planet!"
"Those cities are all occupied by massive subspace demons. Therefore, the current security situation in the market is not optimistic. You must not be careless!"
"besides!"
"I found some information about other cities at the base of our family company. Although you may have obtained official information from other channels, the information I have here is different from the official information. I will still pass it on to you.
!”
Then, after carefully warning Annie, Hong Yanrong hurriedly got down to business and directly transferred the data she had packaged worth tens of thousands of ZB to Annie.
"Information?"
(′ o′)
"Okay! Then the base accepted it!"
(▽`)
Although Anne didn't need the messy data, since the other party gave it to her, she didn't bother to refuse. She just clicked to receive it, and then started the transmission and transferred it directly to a certain intelligence data receiving port in the base.
"that……"
(ì_í)
"Aunt Yanrong, you are actually afraid of death, right? Otherwise, why would you refuse to come back?"
(˙o˙)
Then, while the data started to be transmitted, Annie of course continued to chat with the other party.
"Ha ha!"
"Annie..."
"I have to admit that although you are very smart and powerful, you are really not a lovable kid..."
"That's right!"
"What you just said is indeed true, but please don't say that next time. It's very hurtful."
"Besides, that can't be called fear of death..."
"Is that called 'a gentleman does not build dangerous walls'?"
"I know that Huagai is very dangerous, and I know that other planets in the universe are safer, so why should I go back?"
Listening to Annie's words, Hong Yanrong did not refute, but continued to smile and grin with Annie.
"Although I am indeed a little afraid of death, I don't want to die!"
"The situation on Huagai Star is so bad now. It looks like a red patch from the universe. I guess it won't be of much use if I go back. So why not stay at my company's base and help your base mine and transport supplies?"
!”
"It's not like I didn't do anything. You can't look at me like that."
"However, I still hope that you, the base and the market will get better and better, and that one day you can even drive away all the subspace demons on the entire Huagai planet?"
"At that time, I won't bother you to come and invite you. I will definitely go back as soon as possible."
"I really hope that day comes soon."
"You don't know, the vacuum environment in the universe and the low gravity environment on the planet make me uncomfortable. My skin is a little loose."
"I have never dreamed of going back!"
As she talked, Hong Yanrong showed off her achievements and presence in front of Anne without leaving any trace in the communication. At the same time, she also complained about her sufferings with a plaintive look on her face.
"hope so!"
ε=(ο｀*)))Alas
"It should be soon!"
(*╰╯`)
It will be fast indeed!
Because Anne knows that the number of refugees currently accepted by the base is close to 10 million, and the scale of the conscription is around two to three million. Once the demons who take the initiative to provoke are defeated, then there will definitely be a large-scale proactive attack.
In time, recovering cities one by one will not be as difficult as returning to the market.
"But Aunt Yanrong, you have to be careful too!"
(*^▽^*)
"There are demons in the universe, and they sent out many battleships last time!"
(゜▽^*)
Although, those battleships were eventually wiped out by her, the Head of State Anne, personally driving the Gundam Musou, but who knows if the other party will become furious and produce more battleships?
If that's true, the universe will be more dangerous than the planet. That's no joke!
Especially now, the resources of the sub-base in the universe continue to be tilted towards the mine base. A lot of materials and energy are used to supply the mine base to produce weapons, ammunition and equipment. Then the development of warships has been queued up. Currently, it is still only available from Kepu.
What about the poor flagship brought by Lu Xing District?
"I know."
"Now my spaceship is flying to your sub-base, and I will be stationed in your base by then."
"so……"
"Don't worry, trust me, it will definitely not be more dangerous than you on the ground."
Unfortunately, in the face of Annie's 'kindly' reminder, Hong Yanrong was already prepared, and then shamelessly explained that after abandoning Huagai Star, she abandoned her own base again, and then shamelessly ran away
The shameless practice of seeking asylum in Anne's family base.
"..."
(﹏)
Seeing how thoughtful and steady the other party was, Anne didn't know what to say, so she had no choice but to chat with the other party casually for a while and then turned off the communication angrily after the data transmission was completed.
"..."
└(￣^￣)┐
And when she was about to completely close the holographic interface, she suddenly remembered the mission of Wang Qing and the others just now.
So, driven by curiosity, she used her own authority to search and click on the other party's tasks to see what was going on.
"!!"
(д)b
"Why is it the guy with the round face again?"
(°°)
"Why did she crash again?!"
()
Then, after reading the mission and finally understanding why '067' sounded so familiar to her before, Annie couldn't help but exclaim, and successfully received many surprised looks from the passing Marines and ground crews.
Of course, they were surprised, but because of her identity, they just passed by and saluted, but they didn't dare to talk to her casually.
"Uh-huh..."
(‘~`;)
"All right!"
ε=(ο｀*)))Alas
For a long time, she thought about it again and again, and then thought about what Aunt Hong Yanrong, who was afraid of death, had just told her. She was worried that Darius and the others would screw up. She thought about it again and again, and finally had to do something.
Decide.
"gone!"
()
"Tibbers, let's go back and change equipment!"
()
Although Annie only needed an idea to change equipment or something, but since she just said she would not go with those six idiots, she was not in a hurry for time, so she decided to take a stroll back first.
