Chapter 286 Helpless (1st update)
"Humph, it won't work this way, that won't work either, let's just go back."
Teacher Tang Xuan said irritably.
"I like hearing this! Just go back when you go back."
Mia shrugged her shoulders and said. Anyway, she has made enough. If she goes back early, she can cash out the money early and sell it at a good price.
"No! Doesn't that mean giving it up? The school invested a lot of money, manpower, material resources, and technology transfer in that mining area before signing a cooperation agreement with the Abaik Kingdom. Now leaving empty-handed, doesn't it mean that it's all in vain?
"
Fleck replied very reluctantly.
"Then what are you going to do? People are clearly going to eat you, what can you do?"
Mia asked with a sigh.
"These guys have gone too far. We have treated them so well by providing money, effort and technology, but they treat us like this. It's like a white-eyed wolf!"
Teacher Chen Yue cursed very angrily.
"Don't say that. In other people's eyes, the materials produced belong to them. And we are black-hearted capitalists. Why should we give it to us?"
Mia made it clear.
Chen Yue and others fell silent one by one after hearing Mia's words.
——
In the City of Starlight City Lord's Mansion Office.
Gackles sat at his desk and asked Secretary Yunrou in a hoarse voice.
"How is the repatriation of personnel and materials from neutral countries going?"
"Lord Gackles, the retreat did not go smoothly, and the recovery of many materials was blocked. Moreover, many of us in the occupied country did not escape and were detained by the Imperial Army. We are currently negotiating. However, the negotiation situation is not ideal. The Imperial Army
The people over there are being arrogant and denying that there are people who are detaining us. This is a specific report."
Yunrou placed a thick report document respectfully on the table.
"I see."
Gackles looked at the report document Yunrou put in front of him, showing a very tired look.
Yunrou looked at this scene and said hesitantly.
"Lord Gackles, can I ask you a question?"
"Ask!"
"The Imperial Army is so brutal, neutral countries keep asking us for help, and our people are filled with indignation. Why doesn't the Federation send troops?"
"Fight? How to fight? People in the Federation are totally divided right now. It's like a piece of scattered sand. Everyone has their own agenda, and no one wants to obey anyone! Do you think I can mobilize the other two cities, District 16, and others?
Nine planets?”
Gackles asked directly.
Yunrou was also slightly startled.
Then Gackles continued to speak to Yunrou.
"Sigh~ To put it another way, even if people's hearts are really united, do you think they can definitely win? Those neutral countries are either useless, or their defenses are extremely poor! The federal troops go out to fight the imperial army.
If the battle is lost, the next step will be to attack the city, and then the Federation will be completely in danger! Even if you are lucky and win the battle, you may have forgotten that the Imperial Army is not the only one in the world, the Apocalypse Kingdom is still there to watch.
They are here. I believe they are happy to sit back and wait until we and the Imperial Army are both defeated before attacking us. I can't make the decision on this kind of thing where the fate of the country is at stake, and I don't have the ability to make the decision!"
"So what do we do now?"
"What else can we do? Of course we should recycle resources and stick to our homeland. Our only advantage now is to rely on the Black Flame Star defense line to conduct local operations."
"But it won't work if it goes on like this!"
"Of course I know it won't work. Now I can only wait for time and wait for the President of the Parliament to wake up. Only the President of the Parliament has enough prestige to lead the entire federation to solve the dilemma."
When Gackles said this, he also missed the days when the Council President was here. At that time, even if the sky was broken, he would not be so scared, so anxious, and so confused as now.
"Then when will the Council Leader wake up?"
"I don't know either."
When Gackles said this, his whole person seemed to become older.
Three days later.
Inside Hangar No. 1 of the Red Fang.
Su Ming stood in front of the Lancer and watched the students from the Mechanical Maintenance Department performing maintenance on the Lancer.
"Wow! What a big chicken rack!"
Catini followed her mother and walked over, pointing at the Lancer and shouting excitedly.
"It's a mecha, not a chicken rack."
Su Ming smiled and corrected.
"Hmm, big brother, does this chicken rack belong to you?"
"yes!"
"That's awesome. It would be great if I could also drive. Then I could protect my mother."
Katini looked at Su Ming with great admiration.
"When you grow up, you can learn."
Su Ming smiled and touched Katini's little head.
At this moment, Mia came over breathing heavily and holding a bottle of wine in her hand.
When Hailan saw Mia coming, she quickly took Katini's hand and said softly.
"Katini, let's go play nearby and don't disturb big brother and the others."
"good!"
Katini obediently followed her mother and went to play nearby.
Su Ming turned to look at Mia and said hello with a smile.
"Teacher, what time is it?"
"There's no class today, no matter what time it is."
Mia took a sip of wine and replied.
"Okay, by the way, teacher. What to do with this Lancer? They haven't recycled it either."
Su Ming quickly asked Mia.
"This Lancer belongs to you. I have asked someone to secretly add this mecha to the boarding record list, which is equivalent to the fact that you brought it on board. As for the Iron Guard, I will directly report it as a battle damage!"
Mia replied very simply.
"Awesome!"
When Su Ming heard Mia's words, he couldn't help but extend his thumb and replied.
"Okay, don't forget to buy me a drink later."
Mia said very freely.
"Definitely, but teacher, I lost the main weapon of this mecha. In order to use the mechanical launcher, I had to throw away the long gun. Is there any way you can help me get a weapon?"
"You lost your spear, which is a bit troublesome. Besides, the mechanical nail gun in your mecha's hands is useless without the accompanying spear."
"Yes, that's why I wanted to ask you."
"I don't have much else to do. You probably have to spend money to buy another one. But the spear that comes with the Lancer Knight is not cheap. I remember that one costs 100 million federal coins!"
"So expensive?"
When Su Ming heard the price, he felt a little sad.
"It hurts, you know, you just threw away 100 million federal coins."
"There was nothing we could do at the time."
"That's right, just use it and wait until you get back to the academy."
"Okay, but what's the situation now, teacher? Didn't you say that as soon as we arrived at the Kingdom of Abaik, we would transfer the supplies and leave immediately? As a result, three days have passed without any movement at all, and we are not allowed to disembark.
"
"Don't mention it, something happened."
Mia replied angrily.
"What happened?"
Su Ming heard Mia's words and asked curiously.
Chapter completed!
