Star Wars: The Silver Pledge

Chapter 89 New Course

Sean's second day in the underground base was fulfilling and enjoyable. Although he fought with Anping in the morning, his bones were broken, and in the afternoon he had burns all over his body due to a gun fight with Lu Nan, and he was learning about herbal medicine at night. When he was accidentally poisoned, he vomited and had diarrhea all night... But for Xiao En, the little physical sufferings he experienced were of no value at all, and the knowledge and skills he learned were invaluable.

Anping's fighting skills, Lu Nan's marksmanship, Xu Bo's knowledge of herbs and first aid skills all opened his eyes. These things may not be more brilliant than what he saw and learned in the temple, but it embodies the countless painstaking efforts and ingenuity of the team members. For Xiao En, it was enough to expand his horizons and improve his strength in all aspects.

In the current situation, there is nothing more important than personal strength... Sean thought more than once that if he had been stronger and helped Master a little more when the manor was attacked, the subsequent development would be better. Wouldn't it be different? Do those innocent people who died tragically have a chance to survive?

Of course, Sean is not yet immersed in unnecessary regrets, but the previous encounters did make him feel deeply about his own shortcomings.

So on the morning of the third day, Sean got up early in the morning, endured the severe pain all over his body, and went to the restaurant to prepare breakfast for several teammates—according to the roster, he should not be responsible for the three meals today, but Sean did Willing to put on a courteous gesture in exchange for the unreserved preaching and teaching of several temporary instructors.

Sean made breakfast very carefully. Although the cold ingredients in the kitchen were limited, and there were quite a few dry galaxy agricultural products that he was not familiar with, Sean relied on his enthusiasm and outstanding craftsmanship to serve his teammates. A table full of delicacies. And wearing a neat white clothes waiting in front of the restaurant.

However, when it was time to eat, the teammates who were supposed to come one after another did not arrive. Even Lu Nan, who was always on time, disappeared. In the end, only Zhuang Yuanying appeared timidly at the door of the restaurant, but hesitated.

Zhuang Yuanying tried her best to ignore Xiao En who was welcoming guests at the door, and looked at the empty restaurant with her head. After hesitating for a while, she finally pulled off her soft hat and turned to leave.

Sean worked hard all morning, just waiting for such a diner, of course he couldn't let her go, he hurried up and grabbed her hand: "Why did you run away!?"

The girl's face was blushing, and the temperature from her hand was gradually increasing, but her voice was still weak: "I, I still have work to do..."

Xiao En hurriedly persuaded: "The big work can't hinder three meals a day. I specially made your favorite night lamp grass soup with rice today. After eating, it's not too late to get busy with work!"

Zhuang Yuanying felt even more shy when she heard such caring and sincere words, and couldn't help speeding up her pace to escape from the scene—her food preference was originally intended to be a secret that no one knew, but Xiao En's insight was too amazing. In just a few days, I can see her preferences, and I know her better than my teammates who have known her for many years!

But Sean held on tightly, and even though the girl shook her hand vigorously, she couldn't get rid of the Jedi apprentice who strengthened her body with the force of force. Finally, she was discouraged and said softly, "Then, then..."

Only then did Xiao En heave a sigh of relief, and let go of the hand that had been thrown numb by Zhuang Yuanying for a long time. And looking back, seeing myself being dragged all the way by Zhuang Yuanying, leaving two rows of traces on the ground where the soles of the shoes rubbed against the floor, I had a new understanding of the brute force of this young mechanic in my heart.

This kind of strength is like a large-scale engineering robot, which completely violates the basic common sense of the human body, and Zhuang Yuanying's inhuman identity is further confirmed. What kind of creature is this girl who looks like a human, talks like a human, and even has the same eating habits as a human, but possesses inhuman strength?

After the somewhat embarrassing breakfast time, Sean still couldn't wait for Anping and the others, and he couldn't help being disappointed. But at this moment, the timid and shy girl said softly: "Well, I am the person in charge of teaching this morning."

Sean was taken aback: "You?"

Zhuang Yuanying was also taken aback, her whole body shrank into a ball: "Yes, I'm sorry!?"

Sean felt dumbfounded about this subconscious apology, and at the same time secretly told himself that he must be cautious in his words and deeds when facing Zhuang Yuanying in the future, otherwise it would be too easy to disturb this little animal.

But in any case, Zhuang Yuanying's willingness to serve as a temporary instructor is undoubtedly a surprise to Xiao En.

Among the four teammates of the Hongxing team, Zhuang Yuanying's skills are the most eye-catching. In other words, what Sean needs most now is Zhuang Yuanying's craftsmanship.

Because what he is going to do next requires absolutely superb machine repair skills and rich enough experience in machine repair... and all of these can only fall on Zhuang Yuanying right now.

Sean was still thinking about how to make that overly shy teammate willing to share his knowledge, but now the knowledge is delivered to his door.

After trying to appease Zhuang Yuanying, Xiao En followed her to the deepest part of the ground in Hongxing Base.

As far as the eye can see, it is a huge open square, with a thick circular metal gate installed on the ground in the center. With the arrival of Zhuang Yuanying, the gate slowly closed around, revealing a long passage that stretches downwards and ends without end. And a fully armed lifting platform.

Sean couldn't help but be surprised when he saw the elevating platform with teeth and claws. He traveled the galaxy with his master, and he was barely well-informed, but it was the first time he saw someone pile up so many weapons on his own elevating platform. Equipped.

On the lifting platform that can accommodate up to 20 people, two automatic turrets, a fire-breathing tower and a missile launching tower are installed, not to mention directly occupying more than half of the space, and the lifting platform is close to being overweight, and it keeps making harsh groans when it moves up and down .

Xiao En followed Zhuang Yuanying on the platform and descended deep underground amidst the rumbling sound, and his heart trembled with the trembling of the platform. Seeing the incomparably deep passage under his feet, Xiao En couldn't help thinking about the picture of the lifting platform disintegrating in the air and the two falling into the abyss.

However, when he glanced at Zhuang Yuanying from the corner of the eye, Sean was surprised to find that the other party was leaning against the fire tower, subconsciously stroking the dark fire vent with his palm. Those automatic weapons gave her a great sense of security.

If Xiao En realized something, he couldn't help thinking that Zhuang Yuanying always hid in the spaceship and refused to go out when performing the mission. The explanation given by Anping and others was that someone must stay behind when performing the mission, but the actual situation, I'm afraid It was Zhuang Yuanying who had a serious fear of the outside world. Generally speaking, this kind of psychological problem stems from some bleak and dark past.

Thinking of this, Xiao En couldn't help but make up his mind: in the future when getting along with Zhuang Yuanying, he must be careful not to touch each other's scars. This time is to ask Zhuang Yuanying's machine repair skills, so just discuss the facts, don't talk about other topics lightly.

After a while, the lifting platform finally carried the two of them down to the end of the passage, which was also the lowest floor of the underground base.

With the opening of an airtight gate, a bit of biting cold wind blows towards his face, making Sean shiver involuntarily.

Is it so spooky? What is hidden in this underground base?
