Chapter 657 Compete

Bright and beautiful never imagined that a salted fish like herself would have to endure a life comparable to a workaholic.

The thought that she hadn't closed her eyes for ten or so days made her feel incredibly awesome.

She could even stand on the deck of the starship, gazing at the boundless starry sea, without worrying about whether her house would be struck by lightning or blown away by a strong wind while she was asleep.

Laughable, she didn't even have time to go back to sleep.

Hu Mingli, Bright and beautiful felt that it was unscientific that this person could live to this day and become a major general.

How could someone in such a high position be able to fool around every day?

Whether it was killing Zerg or taking down the surrounding underworld forces, since Bright and beautiful was new, she and Mu Chen actually became the cameramen of the entire guard regiment.

"Cameraman" was just a figure of speech, but as onlookers, they would also have to help them write activity summaries and edit instructional videos. However, this was not without its benefits.

Hu Mingli took herself and Mu Chen to the command room to watch the battle. While they were watching, Hu Mingli would also explain to them. Bright and beautiful learned a lot about combat, which also enriched the content when Bright and beautiful and Mu Chen wrote summaries.

Hu Mingli even directly connected with the mecha personnel in battle for one-on-one technical guidance. Bright and beautiful discovered for the first time that command could be like this!

"In the past few years, it was true that the people below could just lead the team to charge. The major general really didn't need to go up."

During the break, Doron and Rian explained to Bright and beautiful why they seemed to know something that was slightly different from what they had actually experienced.

"However, the ones who can survive to this day after fighting these years can't be solved by just sending out troops."

As Doron spoke, he opened a bottle of energy nutrient solution and poured it into his mouth, instantly sweeping away his tired state. He also kindly handed them two bottles and said, "You guys are also lucky to be able to follow along and learn as soon as you come. Unlike others who are still in the base, following the veterans in the simulation cabins!"

This also included Hu Yue.

Although Hu Yue had also grown up in the legion since she was a child, her actual combat experience was too little compared to her brother. In addition, Li Yuan was also there, so Hu Mingli let the two of them stay in the base first.

Bright and beautiful and Mu Chen didn't speak, but took the bottle of energy nutrient solution. Bright and beautiful's expression was a little subtle. She had already drunk several bottles of this in the past half month. The taste was quite strong, but the effect was unexpectedly good.

As a result, Bright and beautiful really survived these ten or so days.

Not closing her eyes for ten or so days, what kind of workaholic level was this? The saying that even working to death can't kill you was describing her current state.

"How many more days can we go back?"

After Doron walked away, Bright and beautiful looked at the alien sea view outside the defense shield and took a sip of this not-so-delicious drink.

This alien sea was not human territory.

It was also not the territory of the Zerg. Just like Hu Mingli said, this was a chaotic zone.

You could encounter any race, human, Zerg, beast, and even merfolk, and even many strange creatures that you had never seen before and that had not come out to confirm what they were.

This time, they followed Hu Mingli here to capture a group of information peddlers.

In order to capture the information peddlers, they had fought no less than five battles, large and small, in the past ten or so days, just to catch the group of information peddlers who sold the third legion's deployment secrets and the location and identity of the Li family's mecha designers.

Without even asking, Bright and beautiful knew who these people had sold the information to. Who else was there besides the Zerg?

Under normal circumstances, they wouldn't be so blatant in dealing with information peddlers who sell information in the underworld, not even concealing their identities.

However, the "sugar daddy" had requirements.

Selling this information to the Zerg not only caused heavy losses to the third legion, but also destroyed two of the garrisoned planets. Although they won, it was a pyrrhic victory. The third legion directly gave a large sum of money to the sixth legion to handle the subsequent pursuit and processing.

The higher-ups knew that there were objections to this matter, but the two legions were willing to pay and willing to take on the job, so no one could say anything. Therefore, the two legions, especially the third legion, meant that they would kill all those they could!

Information peddlers, if the third legion wanted the sixth legion to bring back a few typical ones alive, they could pay more money.

Otherwise, Bright and beautiful probably would have seen Hu Mingli directly blow up the information peddlers' nest with a single shot a few days ago.

It was just that this blatant operation of rushing into the alien sea under the banner of the empire not only offended these information peddlers to death, but also equaled a provocation to others.

Just like Doron said, those who could survive to this day and live in such a complex environment as the alien sea were all crouching tigers and hidden dragons, or rather, oddballs.

They would rather live a life of dancing on the tip of a knife in this chaotic border than be bound by the laws of the empire and the federation. In their hearts, these people still carried a hint of pride.

However, Hu Mingli's high-profile action this time was simply a slap in the face, telling them that the chaotic and free kingdom they thought they had was just something their empire looked down on and was too lazy to do. If you really dare to do anything, I will destroy you in return.

There would probably be a lot of trouble later.

"There are still two days." Mu Chen gently rubbed the energy drink in his hand, sighed softly, and said, "I never thought this alien sea would be like this..."

Mu Chen went over the scenes he had seen these days in his mind countless times. If he remembered correctly, he seemed to have seen some mixed-blood races.

"Yeah, by doing this, those people in the alien sea will think that the empire is going to reach out and govern the alien sea. How can those people agree?"

Bright and beautiful felt that they couldn't be kind to this group of people in the alien sea for this kind of face-slapping lesson. Either they would just start a fight later or they would be incorporated, otherwise, it wouldn't be possible to be like this now.

"Let them misunderstand. Think about it, the ones we caught this time are all humans."

Mu Chen didn't have much reaction to the two legions' high-profile actions. Anyway, the tall ones would take the blame if something happened. Besides, when Mu Chen saw that all the ones caught were humans, he couldn't help but sneer.

It wasn't easy to earn money from the blood of one's compatriots.

"I understand, but I'm afraid that the Zerg will also get involved and cause trouble at this time." Bright and beautiful didn't doubt at all that the Zerg would fan the flames among the people in the alien sea after they found out.

In response, Mu Chen smiled and said, "Don't worry, if they want to fan the flames, we're not unprepared."

"What are you prepared for?"

"To pass the buck?" Mu Chen chuckled and said, "Otherwise, how would Hu Mingli know the news about these information peddlers?"

"You mean there are..."

Bright and beautiful recalled the situation in the alien sea during the half-month or so they had been out this time. No wonder Hu Mingli and the others looked familiar and went straight to the information peddlers' nest. It turned out that someone had provided this information.

And this kind of secret information could not be obtained by ordinary people, unless the other party was also an existence like an information peddler.

"Yes, although he didn't say it, we can all guess. Have you forgotten? The sixth legion has also used some channels in private to deal with the property of the star pirates and the corpses of the Zerg. There will be no shortage of these channels."

"I know." Bright and beautiful nodded. She was just curious about who provided Hu Mingli with this information.

While Bright and beautiful and his party arrived at the sixth legion and even lived such a "military life" in the legion for so many days, other military academy students also went to the legions they served in one after another.

When Lu Gui and Zhen Hu and his group of freshmen arrived at the third legion, they received a unique welcome ceremony...
