Chapter 433 Blood Red Angel (Five in One)
by SunflowerSu Ming replied somewhat helplessly after hearing Mia’s words.
“Uh, this is the only decent ship I have. Go easy on it.”
“Don’t worry, it’ll be fine.”
Mia reached out and patted Su Ming’s shoulder, saying with a bright smile.
“I’ll believe you when pigs fly.”
Su Ming’s mouth twitched slightly.
At this moment, Yun Xuan walked quickly to Mia, holding a document, and reported to her.
“Mia, the approval has come through!”
“Really? Did that old woman change her mind? That’s so quick!”
Mia immediately beamed when she heard Yun Xuan’s words.
“But…”
Yun Xuan said, hesitating to speak.
“But what?”
Mia looked at Yun Xuan in confusion.
“Mia, you should just look at it yourself.”
Yun Xuan then handed the document to Mia.
“That old woman is going too far! I’m going to have a talk with her!”
Mia finished reading the document and immediately cursed in a rage, then took on a stance as if she was ready to fight Soleia.
Seeing this, Su Ming quickly pulled Mia back and asked curiously.
“Calm down, what happened?”
“What else could happen? I asked her to approve the pension, and she only approved the lowest tier!”
Mia replied exasperatedly.
“Mia, please don’t be angry. Commander Soleia’s intention is that only the lowest tier can be approved, otherwise the council won’t pass it, and other Corps are also approving it this way.”
Yun Xuan quickly tried to persuade Mia.
Hearing this, Su Ming said to Mia.
“Teacher Mia, let me see it!”
“Here!”
Mia handed the document to Su Ming in annoyance.
Su Ming took it and looked. This time, 1321 deaths were reported, mainly Mecha pilots, with the lowest rank being Second Lieutenant.
The approved pensions for Second Lieutenants varied based on household registration. Starlight City residents received 5 million federal currency, Sky Dome City and Rainy City residents received 3 million federal currency, Thirteenth District residents received 1 million federal currency, and residents of other planets received 800,000.
Mia cursed angrily.
“What’s the use of this little money? 1 million in the Thirteenth District might barely allow them to survive, but in a place like Starlight City, where every inch of land is worth gold, how are their whole families supposed to live on 5 million? They can’t even buy a toilet!”
“The lowest tier is indeed a bit too little.”
Su Ming nodded slightly in agreement.
In fact, after Lin Chuyu’s father sacrificed himself, they couldn’t continue to live in Starlight City on the pension alone, which is why they moved to the Thirteenth District.
“No, I must go find that old woman and have a good talk with her.”
Mia said angrily.
Hearing this, Su Ming quickly tried to dissuade Mia.
“Teacher Mia, don’t go. You can’t completely blame Commander Soleia for this. What’s the use if she approves more but the council doesn’t pass it? It will also delay the distribution time. Didn’t you deposit 580 million federal currency with me? I’ll calculate the interest for you and make it 1 billion for you. That should be enough to make up the difference.”
“Alright then!”
Mia agreed immediately upon hearing this.
“I’ll transfer it to you!”
Su Ming raised his wristband and transferred the money to Mia.
However, speaking of which, although Teacher Mia seemed unreliable, she also had her own personal charm, especially when it came to pensions.
Most generals would just accept whatever amount was approved from above, and very few were willing to offend their superiors to fight for them.
In a sense, it was their good fortune to be able to follow Mia.
After receiving the money, Mia directly took out her bank card and handed it to Yun Xuan, saying.
“Yun Xuan, use all the money in the card to subsidize them.”
“Okay, I’ll go do it now.”
Yun Xuan took Mia’s card and replied.
Mia, having resolved the pension matter, said with a smile.
“Umtor, you continue training. Su Ming, you all come with me. I’ll take you to visit the 27th Regiment’s Mecha formation.”
“Okay!”
Su Ming and the others immediately responded.
Mia led Su Ming and the others forward.
Along the way, rows of Iron Guard Mechs were neatly seated in their bays.
The Federation’s Mecha formation’s lowest standard configuration was Second Generation Mecha, and Iron Guard Mechs were considered quite good among Second Generation Mechas.
“These Iron Guard Mechs are all the latest models!”
Mia introduced as she led them forward.
“Very good!”
Su Ming and the others nodded in response.
Before long, they passed through the Iron Guard Mech area, and rows of Third Generation Cyan Wing Mechas came into view.
“Wow, so many Third Generation Mechas?”
Rhine and the others said in surprise.
“It’s alright, not that many. I’ll take you to see even better ones!”
Mia continued to lead Su Ming and the others forward.
Soon, they arrived at the Fourth Generation Mecha parking area. There were a total of sixteen Fourth Generation Mechas parked here, eleven of which were Tier 4 Mecha · Shadow Slayer.
“Teacher, why are there only sixteen?”
Rhine and the others asked, puzzled by the number of Fourth Generation Mechas.
“No choice, many were lost.”
Mia replied helplessly.
“I see. No wonder it’s even less than what we have.”
Ankajia replied with a sudden realization.
“How many do you have?”
Mia looked at Ankajia and the others, bewildered, and asked.
“Counting the ones recovered and repaired, probably around 32.”
Rhine calculated briefly and said.
“That many?”
Mia was also stunned when she heard Rhine and the others’ words.
Fourth Generation Mechas were not cheap; each one was ridiculously expensive, even the cheapest Shadow Killer sold for tens of billions.
She had gone to great lengths to acquire these Fourth Generation Mechas.
“Not many.”
Su Ming shook his head and replied.
According to his original plan, all the students in the class, as well as the squadron leaders under him, were to be armed with Fourth Generation Mechas, and there was still a huge shortage.
Mia came back to her senses and excitedly asked Su Ming.
“Su Ming, did you strike it rich?”
“No, absolutely not! I’m broke right now!”
Su Ming instinctively shook his head, refusing to admit it even if it killed him.
“Tsk, look how scared you are. I wouldn’t ask you for it anyway.”
“Hehe, Teacher, let’s not talk about that for now. Can you show us your Mecha?”
Su Ming also asked curiously.
“You want to see my Mecha, huh? Of course, no problem, but you need to be mentally prepared, don’t get scared.”
Mia said in a very good mood.
“We won’t.”
Su Ming and the others replied with a smile.
“Let’s go!”
Mia then led Su Ming and the others forward.
Soon, they reached the end, where a pure Mechanical V Generation Mecha · Red Angel stood. It was fifty meters tall, with a humanoid metal head, and its entire body was constructed from blood-red armor, covered with red bloodstain patterns. It had monstrous blood-red claws, two Super Particle Light Blades hanging at its waist, four pairs of red Light Wings embedded in its back, and thirteen red moons, eleven black moons, fifty-one red stars, and forty-three black stars painted on its shoulders, exuding a powerful oppressive aura.
“Wow!”
“V Generation Pure Mechanical Mecha!”
Rhine and the others stared wide-eyed, shouting in shock.
Su Ming was also startled; among those thirteen red moons, three were Dark Red Moons.
He knew better than anyone how difficult it was to obtain a Dark Red Moon.
And what was even more exaggerated were those red stars; their number was ridiculously high. Su Ming even suspected whether Mia was milking the officers of both the Dark Star Empire and the Apocalypse Divine Kingdom like sheep?
“My Red Angel is pretty good, right!”
Mia said proudly to Su Ming and the others.
“It’s great. This V Generation Mecha seems to have excellent performance, Teacher. Can I test drive it?”
Su Ming asked, itching to try it out.
“Of course you can! How about this? Rhine, you all look around, and I’ll accompany Su Ming to test drive the V Generation Mecha and take him to see the Abyss of Fallen defense line.”
Mia said to Rhine and the others.
“Okay!”
Rhine and the others immediately responded.
“Su Ming, get in the Mecha!”
Mia led Su Ming to the Red Angel, activated the anti-gravity device, and floated up.
At this moment, the Red Angel’s cockpit automatically opened.
As the two entered the cockpit, a strong smell of alcohol wafted towards them.
Su Ming took a step forward, immediately stepped on a wine bottle, and slid backward.
Mia quickly reacted, grabbing Su Ming’s hand.
Su Ming also looked at Mia with a dark expression, then lowered his head to look at the cockpit floor, which was covered in wine bottles, and some black things.
He bent down to pick it up and found that it was black stockings.
Mia’s expression stiffened, and she quickly reached out to pull the black stockings away, saying awkwardly.
“I forgot to tidy up.”
“No matter!”
Su Ming took a deep breath and said, then extended his foot and swept the wine bottles on the floor aside.
After he finished these, he turned his head and looked around.
The entire cockpit was very spacious, with the metal bulkheads glowing with a special red luster, very beautiful.
The central pilot seat was integrated with the NOCY · Super Neural Device.
The only downside was the hygiene.
Mia reached out and opened a hidden storage compartment, pulling out a bottle of 52-proof white wine from inside, and said to Su Ming.
“Get in!”
“Okay!”
Su Ming sat directly on the operating chair. The cockpit automatically closed, and red striped light bands on the bulkhead lit up, looking very cool.
The eyes of the entire Red Angel immediately lit up.
Su Ming controlled the Red Angel and sent a request for departure to the headquarters’ command center.
Pieces of feedback information popped up.
“Application approved!”
“Departure channel 17 is open.”
Su Ming’s mind stirred slightly, and the Red Angel swiftly rushed towards the exit of Departure Channel 17.
In space.
The Abyss of Fallen Defense Line Headquarters opened an exit.
A blood-red stream of light rushed out, flying at high speed in space.
Inside the Red Angel’s cockpit, Mia picked up the white wine bottle, took a swig, and asked with a smile.
“How is it? Isn’t it great!”
“As expected of Teacher’s Mecha, the performance is excellent, especially the mental feedback; there’s almost no delay.”
Su Ming praised sincerely.
“Of course, you don’t even need to ask whose Mecha it is.”
Mia replied very proudly.
Su Ming’s expression sharpened, and he instantly controlled the Red Angel to disappear with a Light Speed Flash, appearing precisely in front of a small asteroid in the distance.
“Teacher, you’ve made quite a few adjustments to this Mecha, haven’t you? It’s so easy to use.”
Su Ming said with a smile.
This Mecha not only had excellent performance, but Mia had also made many fine adjustments, making it very suitable for actual combat.
“Nonsense, let me tell you. Although Mechas are made by mechanics, we are the ones who use them. Therefore, we must adjust the Mecha to its most suitable state, so that it will be easy to handle during combat.”
Mia instructed Su Ming.
“I’ve learned a lot.”
Su Ming replied humbly.
“Fly forward, I’ll take you to see the Abyss of Fallen.”
Mia said in a good mood.
“Okay!”
Su Ming controlled the Red Angel, turning into a red streak, and flew towards the starry sky ahead.
Soon, they flew into the Abyss of Fallen Defense Line area, which was densely packed with giant fortresses, strongholds, and various space-based weapons, as well as a large number of warships and Mecha units on continuous patrol.
Under normal circumstances, any Mecha or warship wanting to pass through the defense line required a special pass.
Otherwise, they would be intercepted and unable to pass through the defense line at all.
However, after seeing the Red Angel, they all ignored it and let it pass.
In a flash, Su Ming controlled the Mecha to cross the defense line and flew towards the entrance of the Abyss of Fallen.
As the distance continuously shortened, the scenery in front became more and more stunning. The entire entrance to the Abyss of Fallen was like a sunken waterfall, with countless streams of light pouring into the interior like water, very magnificent and dazzling.
“This is the Abyss of Fallen? I’ve only seen it in video footage before.”
“Don’t you think it’s beautiful?”
“Yes!”
“Don’t be deceived by illusions; the more beautiful things are in this world, the more dangerous they are. The entire Abyss of Fallen is like the gaping maw of a monster, devouring everything. Don’t be fooled by how wide the entrance appears; currently, only two passages leading down have been discovered. One is controlled by the Federation, and the other by the Apocalypse Divine Kingdom. Both of these passages were explored by both sides at the cost of countless lives.”
Mia explained to Su Ming.
“Understood. What’s the situation inside the Abyss of Fallen then?”
Su Ming nodded in response.
“The Abyss of Fallen, to put it simply, is a passage. Inside, it’s a huge void, somewhat similar to a small universe, containing many unexplored planets.”
Mia thought for a moment before explaining.
“I see. It seems the situation in the Three Great Forbidden Zones is all pretty similar, a coexistence of opportunity and danger.”
Su Ming, controlling the Red Angel, stopped and looked at the distant Abyss of Fallen, speaking calmly.
Mia turned to look at Su Ming, who was earnestly controlling the mecha. She suddenly felt that Su Ming had matured a lot compared to before, and his demeanor had undergone a qualitative transformation, giving off a very unique feeling.
For a moment, Mia stared at Su Ming, lost in thought.
“Teacher?”
Seeing that Mia hadn’t spoken for a long time, Su Ming asked, puzzled.
Mia immediately snapped back to reality and said to Su Ming.
“That’s enough for now. Let’s head back.”
“Alright!”
Su Ming, controlling the Red Angel with full power, transformed into a red streak, flying back like a shooting star.
After a long while, Su Ming, controlling the Red Angel, returned to headquarters. He steadily parked the mecha in its designated spot.
Click!
The cockpit opened.
Su Ming and Mia floated down, landing on the metal floor.
At this moment, Su Ming raised his wristband, checked the time, and asked.
“It’s noon. Want to grab a meal together?”
“No, you go eat by yourself. I need to go back and catch up on some sleep. Don’t bother me unless it’s important.”
Mia said with a lazy stretch.
“Okay.”
Su Ming replied with a smile.
Mia then walked away, drinking from her bottle.
Su Ming watched his teacher, Mia, leave, then turned and departed as well.
Mess Hall No. 1.
Su Ming walked in through the main door.
This mess hall was exclusively for officers and generals, so its scale wasn’t very large.
However, the entire mess hall was very lively, with officers dining everywhere he looked.
At this time, three young female officers and several young male officers sat at a table, eating and gossiping.
“Have you heard? A Major General recently arrived at our headquarters. Not only is he super handsome, but he’s also very young.”
“Tsk, becoming a Major General at such a young age? He must have pulled some strings and used connections.”
A male officer with some acne on his face said indignantly.
At this moment, a woman with a ponytail, black glasses, and a Major’s uniform said.
“I checked Major General Su Ming’s file, but unfortunately, all of it is classified and requires very high clearance.”
“You’re talking about Major General Su Ming! Let me tell you, he’s not some connected person who got in through the back door. He’s incredibly formidable, alright? He’s been through many large-scale battles, killed a large number of Dark Star Empire generals, and has outstanding military merits!”
A tall, delicate-looking girl said with a smile.
“He Jie? You can see his information?”
The others looked at He Jie, puzzled.
“Oh, of course I can’t see it.”
“Then how do you know?”
“Are you all silly? Our information is classified, but the enemy, the Apocalypse Divine Kingdom, doesn’t keep it secret. As long as you infiltrate their forums, it’s easy to find out!”
He Jie explained to everyone.
“You can do that? So in the future, if we want to know if our own people are capable, we just need to inquire with the enemy forces, and we’ll know?”
“Exactly, it’s super convenient. But there are also drawbacks. It means the enemy indirectly exposes our people’s information. This isn’t a good thing and can easily be collected by the Mechanical Clan.”
“True.”
The others agreed when they heard He Jie’s words.
At this moment, He Jie suddenly shouted excitedly.
“Look quickly, General Su Ming is here!”
“Where?”
“Over there!”
“Wow! He’s really handsome!”
As Su Ming walked into the mess hall, he instantly felt many gazes focused on him, which made him a little uncomfortable.
Just then, a resentful shout came from a corner.
“Su Ming!”
Su Ming was also startled and turned his head to look.
He saw Su Yuan approaching furiously, his face filled with anger.
“Su Yuan!”
Su Ming smiled and greeted Su Yuan.
“Hmph, don’t give me that cheeky smile. You’re simply too much! Haven’t you heard the saying, ‘One should not bully a friend’s wife’? And you, you actually dared to hook up with my wife!”
Su Yuan angrily accused.
Whoosh!
All the officers in the mess hall looked at Su Ming in shock, their eyes revealing expressions of excitement.
Were they witnessing some huge gossip? Everyone began to discuss.
“What’s going on? Su Yuan got cheated on?”
“It seems so! And that’s not the main point. The main point is that they seem to be cousins.”
“Holy cow, is it that explosive?”
Su Ming said to Su Yuan with a dark expression.
“Can you lower your voice?”
“No! You’re simply shameless! And here I thought of you as a brother, yet you actually entered my wife’s boudoir.”
Su Yuan accused him with a pained expression.
“How could I? You’re getting more and more outrageous!”
Su Ming nearly jumped up.
“Don’t even try. Don’t think I don’t know, you got into my wife’s mecha and piloted it with her.”
As Su Yuan said this, he was grinding his back teeth.
Hearing this, Su Ming lowered his voice and said to Su Yuan.
“You want to play this game, huh? Then don’t blame me for being impolite.”
“I’m stating facts. It’s truly hurtful.”
Su Yuan replied with great heartache.
Hearing this, Su Ming took a deep breath, then raised his voice and shouted loudly.
“Ah? So Miss Hillis is your wife?”
Whoosh!
Over a quarter of the male officers in the entire hall stood up, each looking at Su Yuan with murderous intent.
Su Yuan was instantly dumbfounded and turned to look around.
He saw numerous male officers no longer eating, all rolling up their sleeves and gathering around.
“What are you all doing? Su Ming, help me!”
Su Yuan swallowed with difficulty.
Su Ming saw this scene and immediately laughed. Just as he was about to say something, his wristband vibrated, and a message popped up.
“Major General Su Ming, please report to the General Office immediately. Soleia Commander wants to see you.”
After reading the message, Su Ming said to Su Yuan.
“I have something to do, I’m leaving first!”
“Hey, hey, don’t leave!”
Su Yuan shouted with an incredibly expressive face.
He was about to chase after Su Ming, but a crowd of officers immediately blocked his way.
—
Apocalypse Divine Kingdom · Abyss of Fallen Defense Line.
At the center of numerous fortresses and defensive weapons, sits a space defense fortress, the Light Star Shield, with a diameter of five hundred kilometers, shaped like a starfish, entirely covered in white armor, and with countless cannon barrels and launch ports embedded on its surface.
Inside the luxurious office of the Light Star Shield fortress.
An old man in a white military uniform, with white hair, wise eyes, and a face full of wrinkles, sat in front of an office desk made of white jade.
This old man was none other than Commander Misa of the Apocalypse Divine Kingdom’s Abyss of Fallen Defense Line.
At this moment, a young woman in a white nun’s robe, with fair skin, waist-length brown hair, and sapphire-like eyes, stood before Commander Misa with a melancholic expression and spoke.
“Commander Misa.”
“Helena, what is it?”
Commander Misa asked wearily.
Deputy Helena hesitated for a moment, then spoke to Commander Misa.
“Commander Misa, the higher-ups are requesting you to intensify the attack on the Federation.”
“What did you say? Intensify the attack even more? Damn it, lunatics, a bunch of lunatics!”
Commander Misa slammed the table in anger when he heard this, cursing.
They were doing perfectly fine digging here, minding their own business with the Federation.
These idiots insisted on making him provoke trouble again and again, constantly attacking the Federation.
As a result, they were now fighting fiercely, like fire and water every day. Whenever the two sides’ troops met inside the Abyss of Fallen, they fought to the death, and casualty reports were submitted daily.
The number of casualties this year was more than the past few decades combined, and these bastards still wanted him to intensify the attack.
“Commander Misa, watch your words! This is the command of His Majesty the Divine Emperor.”
Helena quickly reminded him.
“I know. Go gather everyone for a meeting.”
Commander Misa’s entire old face twitched as he heard this, and he spoke through gritted teeth.
“Yes!”
Helena respectfully replied.
…
—
Soon after.
Su Ming arrived on the third floor of the headquarters and walked along the long corridor towards the interior.
Along the way, soldiers in exoskeleton armor saluted and greeted him with serious expressions.
“General!”
Su Ming nodded slightly in response.
Soon, he arrived at the door of Soleia’s office.
Knock, knock!
Su Ming knocked on the door.
“Enter!”
A serious voice came out.
Su Ming then pushed open the closed door and walked in.
The entire office was circular, with the floor paved with mechanical square tiles embedded with holographic projection devices, simulating vibrant natural scenery.
The vast office had no decorations, only a five-meter-long large office desk placed in the central area, and transparent windows opened on the wall at the far end.
At this moment, Soleia Commander was sitting at the desk, her expression very serious.
Su Ming walked directly in front of Soleia Commander, raised his hand in a salute, and said.
“Commander!”
“Mm, you’re here!”
“Commander, may I know why you called for me?”
“No need to be nervous, I just have a few questions for you.”
“Alright!”
“You’re from the Thirteenth Corps, right?”
“Yes!”
“How is Lord Long Bai doing recently?”
Soleia asked with concern.
“Legion Commander is doing well.”
“What has she been busy with lately?”
“Lord Long Bai is coordinating the overall situation in the Donao Star Sea.”
Su Ming didn’t hide anything from Soleia, as Dragon White serving as the overall Commander in the Donao Star Sea wasn’t too big of a secret.
“Hmm, how is the Federation’s situation now?”
After exchanging pleasantries, Soleia Commander gazed at Su Ming and asked very seriously.
Su Ming’s eyes flashed with a hint of surprise when he heard Soleia Commander’s words.
Although the Abyss of Fallen was very far from the Federation, Soleia Commander should have her own information channels regarding the Federation’s situation. Why was she suddenly asking him?
However, Su Ming still replied truthfully.
“Not optimistic. The Federation is currently besieged on all sides. Other forbidden zones have more or less run into problems. The Donao Star Sea just fought a tough battle, but the Dark Star Empire has reinforced its troops. As for the Tidal Star Sea, the situation is even less ideal; they’ve been constantly retreating, and at home, the Mechanical Cult is causing endless trouble.”
Soleia’s expression grew gloomier as she listened to Su Ming’s words.
Seeing Soleia’s expression wasn’t quite right, Su Ming tried asking.
“Commander, has something happened?”
“The supply line between the Abyss of Fallen and the Federation has been cut off!”
Soleia said in a deep voice.
Su Ming listened to Soleia’s words, his brows tightly furrowed as he said.
“That’s not right. When the Apocalypse Divine Kingdom invaded our rear, didn’t I report it to the Cosmic Military Headquarters early on?”
“The Cosmic Military Headquarters can’t spare any troops; the Wormhole Spacetime requires a large number of troops to maintain. And our route is managed by Rainy City. Rainy City dispatched troops to clear it afterward, but they were heavily damaged instead, which resulted in the route being completely cut off.”
Soleia replied, greatly annoyed.
“Then if we need supplies now, don’t we have to take a detour through the Cosmic Military Headquarters?”
Su Ming replied, rubbing his temples.
This would lengthen the supply lines, and the time would also be extended.
“It’s more than just that. After the Wormhole Spacetime went awry, Guangying Star Sea is full of wandering monsters. The transport fleet could easily be sunk by them.”
Soleia Commander said coldly.
“Commander, what do we do now?”
Su Ming asked with a heavy heart, truly embodying the saying that when a person is down on their luck, even drinking water can cause problems.
“I will find a way to handle this matter. You may leave for now.”
Soleia said gravely.
“Yes!”
Upon hearing this, Su Ming respectfully withdrew.
Soleia watched Su Ming’s retreating back, her expression constantly changing.
——
The next morning.
Basement Floor 1 · Mecha Training Area.
Su Ming walked towards the Twenty-Seventh Corps training area with his hands behind his back. He saw General Umtor in the distance, supervising the training of the personnel below.
“General Umtor.”
Su Ming stepped forward to greet him.
“General Su Ming, you’re here!”
Umtor replied politely.
Su Ming turned his head and looked around, not seeing Mia’s figure, so he asked,
“Umtor, isn’t Mia here?”
“How could she be? She’s drunk all the time. Aren’t you living next door to her? You should know better than me, shouldn’t you?”
Umtor looked at Su Ming in confusion.
“Haha, I thought she had already arrived. By the way, does Teacher Mia drink like this every day?”
Su Ming’s expression stiffened instantly, and he quickly changed the subject.
He had almost caused an accident by knocking on her door yesterday, which made him afraid to knock on her door now.
“Not really. When she first arrived at the front line, she was actually fine, only drinking occasionally. But ever since we lost the last battle on the Mining Planet, she’s been drinking every day.”
Umtor replied with a slight pause.
Upon hearing this, Su Ming asked thoughtfully,
“General Umtor, has Teacher Mia always had this habit of alcoholism?”
“I’m not too sure about that. General Mia and I met in the Twenty-Fourth Corps. At that time, we were both ordinary officers. I remember back then, she was just a bit rebellious, and she didn’t drink much.”
Umtor furrowed his brows, recalling carefully, and said.
“What happened then?”
“It should be after Alimiss sacrificed herself that she started drinking.”
“Alimiss?”
Su Ming was also startled when he heard this name. It sounded very familiar, as if he had heard it somewhere before, but he couldn’t recall it for a moment.
“Alimiss was our Legion Commander of the Twenty-Fourth Corps, and she was exceptionally good to Mia.”
Umtor said to Su Ming in a deep voice.
“I remember now! Wasn’t Alimiss the hero who defended the Black Flame Star Defense Line a hundred years ago and forcibly killed the Mechanical Clan’s V-Type Heroic · Abyss Hunter · Galster during their invasion?”
Su Ming immediately reacted. When he first enrolled in the Royal Court Academy, he had seen her statue in the mausoleum.
No wonder Mia didn’t take them to visit the mausoleum back then.
“That’s right. The Black Flame Star defensive battle ultimately ended in defeat with Legion Commander Alimiss’s death and the annihilation of the Twenty-Fourth Corps. Only a small number of retreating remnants survived, and this eye of mine was blinded in that battle. Furthermore, General Mia’s Red Angel was left to her by our Legion Commander Alimiss.”
Umtor’s expression was also very complex as he recalled that battle.
“Sigh~”
Su Ming sighed slightly upon hearing this.
“However, after the corps was reorganized, General Mia only drank occasionally, and it wasn’t that exaggerated. She truly started to become an alcoholic after being transferred to Xiguang Laboratory.”
Umtor explained to Su Ming.
“Xiguang Laboratory? Did something happen?”
Su Ming’s expression grew increasingly serious upon hearing this.
“I’m not clear about that. Because of my severe injuries, I was assigned to a sanatorium. When I saw her again later, she had already retired due to war-related sequelae. It wasn’t until recently that General Mia suddenly came to find me. I was very surprised at the time; I originally thought she wouldn’t serve again after retiring.”
General Umtor shook his head and explained to Su Ming.
“I understand, thank you.”
Su Ming said with great gratitude.
“You’re welcome. If you get a chance, try to persuade her more. If she keeps drinking like this, her body will break down.”
Umtor shook his head and replied.
“Alright, then I’ll be going.”
Su Ming nodded slightly, then turned and left.
In the dim room.
Mia hugged her knees, curled up against the corner of the bed, red light constantly flashing in her eyes.
A painful expression appeared on her pale face, and fragmented memories kept surfacing in her mind.
Mia immediately immersed herself in past memories.
Black Flame Star Defense Line.
Fortifications, warships, and mecha units exploded like dazzling fireworks.
Overwhelming beams of light, and a tide of mechanical flying insects, Mechanical Octopuses, and other monsters, swept across the entire area.
Within the public communication channel.
“Ah!”
“Can’t hold on!”
“Hold on for me! Even if you die, you must hold on!”
Countless screams and roars erupted.
Inside the hangar of the Star Destroyer · Bloody Angel.
The V Generation Mecha · Red Angel lay broken on the ground, its entire cockpit severely deformed and caved inward.
Several mechanics, operating Iron Head Mechs and holding various tools, were forcibly prying open the deformed cockpit door.
Numerous officers and doctors watched with extreme anxiety.
At this moment, the entrance opened, and a scarred Third Generation Mecha · Nether Slayer rushed in at an extremely fast speed. The entire mecha rubbed violently against the ground, sending sparks flying.
The moment the Nether Slayer stopped, its cockpit opened.
Mia leaped out of the cockpit, her eyes red, and rushed towards the Red Angel.
When Mia reached the Red Angel.
Crack!
The Red Angel’s cockpit door was forcibly opened. Numerous officers climbed onto the mecha and carried down a short-haired, red-haired woman with an heroic face, covered in blood.
Mia stared at Alimiss, who was covered in blood, and stood there in a daze, her body trembling uncontrollably, as if her entire world had been dyed red with blood.
At this point, the memory shifted.
Inside the cold experimental area, raging flames burned fiercely. The ground was littered with damaged equipment and instruments, which were gradually melting in the fire.
Piercing alarms blared one after another.
Within the rolling black smoke, three humanoid biological mechas, over forty meters tall with severely deformed heads, lay sprawled on the ground. Large quantities of black cells seeped out from the armor on the biological mechas’ surfaces, proliferating wildly like cancer cells, eventually coalescing into a colossal mass.
Standing before these three IV-type biological mechas was a V Generation pure mechanical mecha · New Red Angel, fifty meters tall, with a humanoid metallic head, its entire body constructed from blood-red armor covered in dense red blood-markings, monstrous blood-red claws gripping two Super Particle Light Blades, and four pairs of red Light Wings embedded in its back.
“Hold on, I’ll get you out right away.”
Mia shouted, her eyes bloodshot.
“T-teacher, we’re in so much pain!”
“Just kill us.”
“P-please, please, kill us!”
From within the three fallen IV-type biological mechas came agonizing pleas.
“What nonsense are you talking about!”
Mia roared furiously.
At this moment, a cold voice sounded from the broadcast.
“General, kill them!”
Mia furiously controlled her mecha to raise its head and look towards the second floor of the experimental area.
Behind the transparent glass wall on the second floor of the experimental area stood a middle-aged man in a white lab coat, wearing black glasses, his eyes extremely cold and indifferent.
“General Mia, kill them! This is an order.”
Dr. Blackes repeated with extreme indifference.
“But they still have their sanity, they can still be saved.”
“This is an order. Do you intend to disobey?”
“Ah!”
Mia gnashed her teeth and let out a roar, controlling her mecha to swing the light blade in her hand.
Crack!
In an instant, blood dyed the entire mecha red.
…
Then the memory flickered again.
Outside the SCW-07 gas giant in space.
Mia controlled the V Generation Mecha · Red Angel, powerfully suppressing the fifty-meter-tall V Generation pure mechanical mecha · Redeemer, which was covered in off-white armor, bore a sacred emblem on its chest, wielded two pure white light blades, and had three pairs of gray crystal prongs embedded in its back.
At this moment, Iron Guards exploded in the surrounding star field.
“Ah!”
Screams of agony constantly echoed through the communication channel.
“General Mia, it’s no use! The enemy’s forces are too numerous; the people below can’t hold on.”
Umtor roared with extreme anxiety.
“Retreat!”
Mia’s eyes were bloodshot. She turned to look at her subordinates who were constantly being killed around her, and gritted her teeth, roaring.
A12 Room Entrance.
Su Ming looked at the closed door, took a deep breath, and raised his hand to knock on the door.
Thump-thump!
There was no movement inside the room.
Su Ming patiently knocked on the door again, but still, there was no movement.
Su Ming tried to turn the handle, and the door, unlocked, opened directly.
The room was very dim, a strong smell of alcohol wafted out, and there were bottles everywhere.
“Teacher Mia?”
Su Ming walked into the room and called out.
The entire room was silent, with no response.
Su Ming then walked towards the bedroom.
When he arrived at the bedroom, he saw Mia wearing a lace nightgown, her head bowed, curled up in the corner.
“Teacher Mia?”
Su Ming walked over and called out softly.
Mia showed no reaction to Su Ming’s call.
Seeing this, Su Ming reached out towards Mia.
Just as his hand was about to touch Mia, she suddenly raised her head, her eyes instantly turning red, and her entire face became extremely fierce.
The next second, Mia suddenly erupted, launching a sharp claw strike towards Su Ming.
Su Ming instinctively raised his arm to block!
Tear!
Su Ming then quickly retreated a few steps, creating distance.
A look of disbelief also appeared on his face as he looked at his arm, which had several bloody scratches.
At this moment, Mia ferociously charged at Su Ming, delivering a kick that whistled through the air, aimed at Su Ming’s head.
As Su Ming dodged sideways, he directly reached out and grabbed Mia’s foot, pulling it sharply forward.
Mia immediately split into a full split, pressing herself against the bed.
But the next second, she pushed off the bed with her hand, sprang up, and swept her other leg towards Su Ming.
Su Ming immediately let go and retreated rapidly.
Mia then got up and charged at Su Ming again, throwing a fierce punch that cut through the air.
Su Ming’s pupils contracted, and the entire world seemed to freeze.
He shifted to dodge the punch, precisely grabbed her wrist, and yanked Mia towards him. He kicked her shin, knocking her down, and then pressed his body onto her, forcibly subduing Mia.
“Teacher Mia, calm down!”
Su Ming shouted at Mia.
Mia struggled desperately, and Su Ming also increased his strength to suppress her.
When Mia’s struggles proved futile, she opened her mouth and bit Su Ming’s shoulder.
“Hiss~”
Su Ming gasped, a sharp pain sweeping over him. Blood seeped from his shoulder, and his entire face darkened.
Is Teacher Mia a dog? Why did she bite so hard?
