I am reciting the Classic of Mountains and Seas in the interstellar

Qiu Zijun said with some embarrassment: "At that time, I was anxious to get them to reveal the whereabouts of my comrades, so I used rocket launchers to wash the floor first..."

Xia Chujian laughed: "It's better to use a rocket launcher! I didn't expect that Lieutenant Qiu, you look gentle and gentle, but you are also a patient with phobia of lack of firepower! The same disease! The same disease!"

Qiu Zijun carefully observed Xia Chujian, and didn't feel relieved until she was sure that he was really not angry.

Xia Chujian never changed her voice, so Qiu Zijun always thought she was a boy.

The three of them stood in front of the burned thatched house. Xia Chujian asked Mao Yonggui to give her the identity tags of the pile that had merged into a ball and it was difficult to distinguish each other.

She planned to let Qilu use its heaven-defying forging ability to try it out to see if it could restore each nameplate.

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

Qiu Zijun looked at Mao Yonggui and the others busy and asked in a low voice: "You have brought so many genetic evolvers?"

Xia Chujian lowered his head and looked at her: "...how can you tell?"

What she said was actually a question, asking why she came to this conclusion.

But it is also an ambiguous sentence.

Qiu Zijun really understood the ambiguity.

She said: "Those hundreds of mecha warriors are proof. Because ordinary marines cannot wear mechas."

This is the established rule of the Starfleet. Everyone thinks so, except Xia Chujian who disagrees.

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

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

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

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

She murmured: "But combat uniforms and military exoskeletons are also radiation-proof... Why do they have to be mechas?"

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

Qiu Zijun nodded with deep understanding: "Of course not."

She looked at Xia Chujian calmly and said, "But those Star Marines have never been exposed to mechas. In a short period of time, they will not be able to control mechas smoothly."

Xia Chujian asked back: "Did you let them try it?"

Qiu Zijun shook his head blankly: "Of course not. In Starfleet, no one will take the risk of violating military discipline and let Star Marines learn to control mechas."

Xia Chuqian smiled. He originally wanted to say that this was not stated in the military law and discipline.

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

If anyone else had said this, Xia Chujian would definitely have criticized him.

But Qiu Zijun had such a good impression on her that she didn't want to embarrass the girl.

And from Xia Chujian's point of view, Qiu Zijun just wasn't as capable of finding faults as she was.

Why should she quarrel with others when they are soldiers?

Xia Chujian calmly changed the subject and said, "Second Lieutenant Qiu, what mission did you come to Morizawa Star to perform?"

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

Xia Chujian said: "...the same. But we have been here for a day and we haven't even seen the shadow of Wanshou Feiyu."

Qiu Zijun couldn't help but laugh at this time and said, "I've only been here for a day, so don't be in a hurry."

“We were also lucky, and we caught a Wanshou flying fish on the second day!”

Xia Chujian seemed to be very interested in this matter and said with interest: "Really? How did you catch it? Can you tell me in detail?"

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

"I was collecting photos at the coral tree and took a lot of photos."

"When we got back to the airship at night, they said the mission was completed and they were going to return."

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

"But I can't find them in the bottom cabin of the airship..."

"They can't be found in any cabin of the airship."

"When I asked other people later, they said that these Star Marines were ambushed by the Sage..."

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

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

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

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

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

"I sent them messages, but no one responded..."

"My heart broke and I thought, if I can't find Sister Zhang and the others, I won't go back!"

"My family feels sorry for me. When they find out I'm missing, they won't let it go."

"These people will still have to come pick me up then."

After hearing this, Xia Chujian thought to herself, it turns out that this person has someone to rely on.

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

In fact, I am the same!

If she suddenly disappears, not only the family, but also Master Su Buyan and leader Meng Guanghui will not leave her alone!

But those Star Marines also have families and friends...

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

Xia Chujian suppressed the anger in his heart and asked calmly: "Second Lieutenant Qiu is a kind-hearted person. Who is the person in charge of your military operation this time?"

Qiu Zijun said: "This is Major Rong Zhongruo."

Xia Chujian thought, it really is him.

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

Xia Chujian continued calmly: "What happened this time is of great importance. Will you report the person in charge of you this time?"

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

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

Xia Chujian's eyes flashed slightly and he said, "But the Starry Sky Marines are not included in the battle damage quota. If you say that, those people won't take it seriously."

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

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

Qiu Zijun said frankly: "I just joined the army a month ago. This is my first mission. Sister Zhang and the others take special care of me. I just want to reciprocate."

Xia Chujian sighed. This was a recruit who had not yet been affected by the hierarchy in Starfleet.

No wonder!

Qiu Zijun frowned and thought, and asked: "Why don't the Starry Sky Marines account for the battle damage quota? Isn't their life not life?"

Xia Chujian put away the flamethrower on his left arm and said calmly: "I have to ask the higher-ups of the military department. Aren't they the ones who set these rules?"

"And..." Xia Chujian looked at the aggrieved 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 were defeated."

What a joke, even if they are really ambushed, these starry sky marines will defeat the indigenous soldiers in minutes!

Qiu Zijun was shocked and said, "No way?! How can it be an exchange?! This is impossible!"

Xia Chujian looked at her, completely understanding her refusal to believe her state of mind.

No explanation, just waiting for her to figure it out on her own.

But Qiu Zijun couldn't figure it out, and said in despair: "This is impossible... I don't believe it... the captain, 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", Xia Chujian chose to believe her and silently played the video she recorded with the Shao Siming mecha camera.

Her camera has been working since the first sight of the starship in the early summer.

The information and videos taken along the way may be more than what the military department has.

Of course, these videos were actually taken by Qi Lu.

Qilu needs this information to make logical judgments.

What Xia Chujian wanted was evidence.

When Qiu Zijun saw those mourners outside the pit saying those words, his whole body collapsed.

She covered her mouth and tears fell down.

The originally delicate face now looked weak and strong.

Even Xia Chu couldn't help feeling pity when he saw her.

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 say anything, just stood aside quietly, waiting for Qiu Zijun to calm down.

At this moment, Xia Chujian suddenly felt a tremor of air coming from the air behind him.

The feeling was very slight, like a butterfly brushing against her helmet, or a leaf falling on her mecha's shoulder.

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

But Xia Chu saw that something was wrong.

She suddenly jumped into the air. The explosive ability of Shao Siming's black and silver mecha was beyond the reach of conventional mechas.

The speed of activation at that moment caused huge airflow fluctuations, knocking Qiu Zijun standing next to her to the ground.

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

Xia Chujian flew upwards and dodged the sniper bullet that used a powerful silencer.

Qiu Zijun is just lucky.

Xia Chujian saw the air flow stirred up in the sky, knocking her to the ground. By some strange combination of circumstances, she also managed to avoid the sniper bullet fired at her.

boom!

The two sniper bullets passed through the open space and hit the two coral trees in front.

There was a loud bang, and holes as big as heads were blown out of the stems of the two coral trees.

The hole quickly glowed with flames and black smoke, and then quickly extinguished.

These big trees are grown after the mutation of corals on the seabed. They look like trees, but they are actually not plants, but animals.

The main trunks of these coral trees are still the secretions of dead coral polyps, the main component of which is calcium carbonate.

The branches outside the main trunk are actually coral polyps living in groups.

When two sniper bullets penetrated the outer coral polyps, causing them to burn, but when they burned to the main trunk inside, they stopped.

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

Therefore, the fire quickly extinguished, leaving only curls of black smoke rising from the colorful coral trees.

Xia Chujian narrowed his eyes and said to himself: "...It's actually a sniper bomb with incendiary ingredients."

"Such a weapon is a bit advanced... Are there other genetic evolvers here?"

If the mecha she wears is not Shao Siming made of special metal, but an ordinary mecha made of regular metal.

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