Mecha: Return of the Pioneers

Chapter 1084 Father and Son

Iron Man standing among a bunch of Doom 3 games looks particularly out of place.

But no one dared to underestimate this iron pilot.

Because the one who drove this iron man here was the man known as the Wild Bear, Sergei Smirnov.

According to the news from the Guiana-class land battleship, this man who was only one step away from becoming a general was transferred to the front-line troops of A-LAWS from today and became one of the leaders of A-LAWS's MS force.

From today on, even as the commander of this A-LAWS unit, Kati Manikin cannot ignore the opinions of Sergei Smirnov when formulating combat plans.

In the eyes of some people, the fact that this man who disappeared in the war several years ago suddenly "reappeared" at this time is very likely because the People's Revolutionary League was dissatisfied with the current efficiency of A-LAWS's operations and deliberately released this wild bear to check and balance Kati Manikin.

But in fact, Kati Manikin did not pay attention to these messy rumors. Instead, she was grateful for Sergei's arrival.

The return of the gods,
The Legion's Invasion,
As well as the reconstruction of the city destroyed by the self-explosion of the Morpho Butterfly, Kati Manikin felt enormous pressure and increasingly exhausted.

When this pressure came, Sergei's arrival would undoubtedly help her share this increasingly heavy pressure.

"It's just that Lieutenant Andre seems to be in some trouble."

Kati Manikin had also heard some rumors about Andrei and Sergei, the father and son.

Moreover, after Sergei disappeared several years ago, Andrei applied more than once to participate in the clearing operations around the orbital elevator.

Perhaps Andrei wanted to use this to get clues about Sergei.

However, since the battle, both A-LAWS and the People's Revolutionary League military have concluded that Sergei Smirnov was missing in battle. Only Andrei has been looking for relevant clues in private.

And right now, in the eyes of most people, the sudden appearance of Sergei Smirnov, who was considered MIA, and came here with a transfer order might be a headache.

After all, whether the touching reunion between father and son will happen is still unknown.

Kati Manikin put down the documents, sighed silently, raised her hand to take off her glasses, gently pressed the bridge of her nose, put the matter about the father and son aside for the time being, and continued to think about the next arrangements for the camp.

Regardless, it couldn't get any worse.

Even though the relationship between the father and son cannot improve, it will not be worse than before.

Kati Manikin trusts Wild Bear Sergei Smirnov's personality and believes that Sergei will handle the father-son relationship well.

Under the cover of night, the citizens who had lost their homes gathered around the campfire in groups of two or three, wrapping their thermal blankets tighter and tighter in order to maintain their body temperature in the cold wind.

Although A-LAWS and a considerable number of ground troops launched the rescue, due to the large number of people in need of rescue, it is inevitable that there will be errors in the arrangements and omissions in the distribution of supplies to everyone accurately.

To this end, many people have spontaneously organized themselves to allow as many people as possible to get a little warmth in these increasingly cold nights.

"Here. This is yours. Drink it and you'll feel much warmer."

Sergei squatted down and delivered the hot soup in his hand to the citizens in need.

The rescue operation that required the use of MS came to a temporary end. Sergei, who did not want to sit in the tent for MS pilots to rest, came to the material distribution point to contribute his own efforts. While driving the MS to investigate and rescue the ruins, Sergei saw some children gathered in groups of two or three around the tent, looking at everything around them timidly, with a look of helplessness and confusion on their faces.

Apparently, these children were either separated from their families or...

So Sergei paid special attention to these children.

The dirty little girl carefully took the cup of hot soup from Sergei's hand. She couldn't wait to take a sip, but she was accidentally scalded. The little girl bit her lips subconsciously and glanced at Sergei secretly.

Sergei smiled gently and reached out to touch the little girl's head.

"Don't worry. There's still plenty of food. I'll get you a spoon!"

Sergei had just finished speaking when he found that the spoon had been handed to him.

I turned my head and saw that it was Andre.

Sergei couldn't help showing a hint of surprise, but he quickly reacted, took the spoon and handed it to the little girl.

The little girl blinked, reached out to take the spoon, gradually revealed a sweet smile, and thanked Sergei and Andrei.

"Thank you, uncle!"

Sergei nodded, touched the little girl's head again, stood up and was about to turn around to get more food, but found a cart with a bucket of hot soup and a box of food parked behind Andrei.

There was a hint of surprise in Sergei's eyes, and Andrei looked a little conflicted, but he still spoke.

"I think these may not be enough. I will go get more later."

Sergei noticed Andrei's dilemma, turned around and looked at the little girl who was drinking hot soup with a small spoon but couldn't help looking at the bread in the box, and the children who were gradually gathering around him, and nodded slowly.

"Well, let's distribute the food first! Andre, you organize the children to line up, and I'll distribute the food."

Andre was stunned for a moment and responded subconsciously.

"Yes! Colonel."

After subconsciously walking away a few steps, Andrei finally realized that he didn't seem to want to communicate with Sergei in this way, but he had inadvertently reached this situation.

Andre frowned, but when he saw the children attracted by the smell of food, he shook his head, drove away all the messy thoughts, clapped his hands, and guided the children.

"Children, come and line up! There's hot soup and bread over here!"

After hearing Andre's voice, the children wandered aimlessly in the camp for a long time but could not find any relatives. The already exhausted children, driven by their hungry instinct, followed Andre's command and obediently lined up in a long queue to receive food.

On the way, Andre noticed that there seemed to be some malicious eyes around him. He glanced at them with a sharp gaze without fear. At the same time, he tightly grasped the communicator hanging on his chest, ready to call for support and expel those malicious figures.

After a series of actions, the atmosphere around gradually returned to calm, leaving only the sound of children eating hot soup and food from Sergei and eagerly filling their stomachs.
