Outrageous!
Dozens of kiloters after their escape, Dora suddenly realized: Why did I have to carry you? You could've just picked soone to carry you!
So frustrating! I should just drop him!
But Big Rabbit was a good girl who cared about a man's pride, so she rely turned back and whispered her complaint to Chen Gu, "You... stop rubbing against ."
BOOM—
Chen Gu had only heard the word "rubbing" when the intense explosion behind him drowned out everything else.
A massive mushroom cloud of black and red soared into the sky, and for a mont, the planet's surface interference with electronic devices faltered. The enormous force of the explosion swept over them like a hurricane at sea. The professionals tried to stabilize themselves in the midst of the blast but were scattered in all directions, flung far away like survivors of a shipwreck.
It took more than ten minutes for them to slowly regroup. Chen Gu was unhard from the nuclear blast thanks to his Heavy Nuclear Armor.
Balermo comnted with excitent and envy, "Ah, I always wanted to awaken as a Radiation Missionary, but alas, I didn't have the talent. TSK TSK, now this is what I call a fight. There's nothing that a nuclear blast can't solve. If there is, then it'll take two!"
Chen Gu nodded. A violence addict. One of us.
Modric looked back at the explosion site, where a new "valley" had ford in the mountains, leaving the surroundings bare. Several nearby peaks had been sheared off by a few dozen centiters...
He nodded and said, "Those spores are taken care of. I can now confirm that inviting you all here was the wisest decision Chairman White has made in his position."
Modric, too, had the pride of a professional fighter and didn't think highly of office-sitters like White and Richard.
He pinpointed a direction and suggested, "Let's go, on to the abandoned fort."
「 」
In space, Chairman White and others watched the entire battle process through military satellites. The nuclear explosion dissipated, and the huge spores vanished without a trace. It was as if a heavy stone weighing on everyone's hearts had been temporarily removed. They all cheered and whistled in unison; so clapped forcefully, others raised their fists high.
Chairman White also silently heaved a sigh of relief and nodded. That super lifeform had been worth the cost.
Only Richard pursed his lips and said, "But their real mission is to investigate the situation inside the military fort—what does clearing these spores accomplish? Our experts have already analyzed it; more spores will appear. In my opinion, they're just wasting our already limited ti."
The cheering in the battleship suddenly quieted. Everyone understood the logic. This clean and decisive clearing of the spores not only clarified the defense chanisms of these things—incredibly valuable experience. More significantly, it represented their first victory in the long battle against the moss virus!
It should have been a trendous boost to morale, but Richard's words had turned it into sothing negative.
Finally, soone couldn't hold back and muttered privately, "You make it sound so reasonable, but when you were in charge of the mission, how did you fail so miserably and let the virus proliferate? All talk."
Richard, furious and embarrassed, shouted, "Who said that? Stand up!"
Chairman White coldly commanded, "Shut up! Richard, you'd better pray that this crisis can be perfectly resolved with Captain Chen's help. Otherwise, the mistakes in your past work will definitely incur even more severe punishnt."
Richard's face darkened, and he silently moved aside, brooding unpredictably.
「 」
Just as the group was about to set off, Chen Gu stopped everyone. "Wait a mont."
Modric misunderstood his intent. "Right, we can't keep having Ms. Dora carry you all the ti. We should take turns..."
Shut up! Dora's face, hidden under her mask, burned red with embarrassnt.
You shut up! Chen Gu was also quite displeased. I'm willing for Big Rabbit to carry , and she's willing to carry . What business is it of yours? Mind your own business!
"Not at all," Chen Gu quickly interjected. He took out a transparent sealed bottle with a few drops of liquid inside. "Who has a material analyzer? This is that mysterious fog."
Before using Quantum Teleportation to return, Chen Gu had casually grabbed so of the thick fog below and, using the ability of a Multistate Special Agent, converted the fog into a liquid for preservation.
lincha reached out to take it. "My cha has one. Give three minutes."
But three minutes later, lincha gasped, "The material structure of this substance is very complex. It'll probably take ten minutes to get results."
While waiting, Balermo leaned over to Modric. Looking at Chen Gu, he told his companion, "When I did my military service, I understood how lucky it is to have a good superior."
"This group of youngsters may not have high ranks or great talent, but they have a good captain. Their future is much brighter than ours."
Modric sighed, and the two of them gently shook their heads together.
The plight on Sol Star was an open secret among the higher-ups of the Rights Association. Everyone was well aware but reluctant to discuss it further.
Why were those real powerhouses, those above the Eighth Energy Level, unwilling to co?
