Silicon Invasion

The packed parcels were urgently transported from the Hucan Base. They were made of a special plastic sealing material. Because they were disposable, although more convenient to carry than mineral boxes, their cost meant they were only used for emergencies.

Another point was that the silicon-based beasts were mutated. No one knew if they would absorb other materials and change. Therefore, every country on Blue Star was extremely careful when heading to Mai Kan, trying not to leave any unnecessary items behind.

The parcel was delivered by a team of nearly a hundred mecha. Their departure still carried some risk, as the base only had a little over two hundred mecha left. Sending out half of them would further weaken the base's defenses.

Fortunately, Blue Star provided some support. A large number of combat vehicles were transported from other military bases to nearby airports by military transport planes, and then carried by transport helicopters to the Blue Star sub-base at Hucan Base.

It was estimated that within twenty-four hours, the number of combat vehicles at Hucan Base would reach over 500. Simultaneously, various types of ammunition would arrive, enough for Hucan Base to fight a high-intensity defensive war.

However, the previous battle probably wiped out most of the silicon-based beasts in the surrounding area. Although the transport team was nervous, they were not attacked at all along the way.

Because Luo Rui's Archer Three mecha was burdened with two recoilless rifles, its carrying capacity was very limited. However, because there were too many things to carry, he still needed to carry two parcels weighing about one ton in total.

Although Luo Rui knew that humans were trying to minimize the interference of Blue Star materials on Mai Kan, the control of metallic materials was always relatively lax. Most of the materials scattered on the front lines were ores originally from Mai Kan, along with mineral boxes, shell casings, and mecha parts. Luo Rui didn't know if this digging-three-feet-deep approach, not even letting go of the mud, was standard procedure, but he felt it was a bit excessive.

In fact, this was also a question of other students, but the instructor did not answer their questions, only saying to execute the order. In fact, Instructor Zeng was aware of the abnormality in the order, but he also knew that since the higher-ups had ordered this, there must be a reason.

Since the higher-ups did not explain it in the order, it meant that his level and authority were not high enough, and what he had to do was to faithfully execute the order.

The team returned in a mighty procession. Drones flew around the team without restraint, providing early warning for the team, but the silicon-based beasts seemed to have disappeared, and not a single one was found.

Although it had only been a few days since he left, Luo Rui had a special feeling the moment he saw Hucan Base. It was a very complex emotion that Luo Rui couldn't describe.

After the ore transport team's mecha returned, the tense atmosphere in the base eased slightly. As a long-range fire mecha pilot with no damage, Luo Rui did not return to Blue Star immediately. After replenishing ammunition, he performed defense missions at Hucan Base for two more days before being arranged to return to Blue Star for rest.

Even with Luo Rui's physique, this was a rather torturous experience. It should be known that the cockpit was not large, especially for Luo Rui, who was tall and strong. Moreover, the seat could not be reclined like in a car, and he had to straddle it, making it extremely uncomfortable. Not to mention eating, drinking, and relieving himself all had to be done inside. Several consecutive days of missions were truly crushing.

Fortunately, Luo Rui's food was replenished, and the used adult diapers were thrown out, which slightly improved his living environment.

"Luo Rui!"

When Luo Rui returned to Blue Star, he was carried out of the mecha and then carried away. In fact, with Luo Rui's physique, he could have persevered, but seeing that the friendly soldiers next to him were all being carried away like this, he was embarrassed to do anything special.

Next was a series of cleaning and washing. The old man responsible for cleaning the body almost scrubbed off a layer of his skin like he was butchering a pig, and then rinsed him with clean water, sweeping away most of the stuffy feeling of the past few days.

Then came the physical examination.

"Why is this kid so heavy?"

"Maybe it's because he's solid. Look at those muscles, they're all solid."

Luo Rui's body naturally had no problems, but strangely, his weight seemed to be a bit excessive. Luo Rui and the doctor didn't care, assuming it was because he ate too much.

After the physical examination, there was a massage treatment to relax the muscles and promote blood circulation. This was very necessary. Luo Rui saw many mecha pilots who had returned before him walking with a limp.

This included Niu Wei!

As a Warrior Three mecha pilot, Niu Wei stood at the forefront of the encounter, a solid defensive barrier. However, in terms of base defense, he was somewhat lacking due to the lack of long-range attack methods. Not only was he useless, but staying there also took up space.

Therefore, he was arranged to be among the first batch of people to return to Blue Star, and he enjoyed this set of services before Luo Rui.

At the same time, Tong Yue and Wang Ming'an, two Warrior Seven mecha pilots, returned to Blue Star only a few hours later than Niu Wei. In fact, Luo Rui was among the last few batches of mecha pilots to return, even half a day later than other Archer mecha pilots. He was the last of all the students to return.

The Hucan Base naturally also received the task of cooperation and assessment for the high-efficiency students' internship experience at the Hucan Base. The mecha all came with battlefield merit recording instruments. This time, more than 100 students went out. Now that the battle was over and the situation was not deteriorating for the time being, the idle officers suddenly remembered this task.

The first-person perspective recordings of all the students were retrieved. Most of the students performed in a satisfactory manner, but Luo Rui's rapid aiming, precise shooting, and extremely efficient kills seemed a bit outrageous.

The officer who noticed the abnormality immediately retrieved Luo Rui's information. He was shocked when he saw it. Good heavens, a special recruit from Beishan Academy, the top freshman, who had cleared the expert-level challenge difficulty in less than two months since entering the school. Although it was confirmed that this was a weakened version of the expert level, he had challenged and passed the full version of the expert-level challenge in the school competition just over a month later.

After that, he easily defeated the second place in the academy exchange competition and won the top spot. After that, there was less information until he came to Hucan Base, and the genius seemed to be hidden.

However, the officers who were also from higher education institutions naturally understood the situation. This was giving way to others. Otherwise, if this kid took all the honors, what would others do?

Moreover, as the military负责人 in charge of this internship, he was really angry when he saw the freshman in the list of students. Wasn't this a child's play? Freshmen, even if it was the time of internship, they had already graduated from their freshman year, but what could they learn in a year? Letting them go to the battlefield so early, wasn't this killing people?
