Hearing Zhang Shan’s voice, Wang Zheng was now completely alert. Lie Xin was about the same. But after she calmed down, Lie Xin was still excited. Her little hand suddenly pinched Wang Zheng’s muscles. “Tsk tsk. What martial arts have you been training? Your body is really good.”

Wang Zheng was exasperated. “Lie Xin, given present circumstances, can we not fool around?”

“You just don’t understand women. Women never care about such things,” Lie Xin said unhappily. What a loss of face.

“And are you one?” Wang Zheng said. At the same time, his beam saber clashed, disemboweling a Zerg, which fell to the floor as ashes.

The runes’ penetrative effect was too amazing. Against girls like Lie Xin, you could not show your weaknesses. The more you did, the more she would press her advantage.

Lie Xin gritted her teeth. In truth, she was not all a woman yet, but Wang Zheng was definitely a man. Very manly. She could feel that Wang Zheng was especially masculine in battle.

Lie Xin in control, Wang Zheng piloted the runic mecha directly towards Zhang Shan and the shelter. More than 10 still pursued on the mecha’s tail.

Clearly, once Conqueror had moved into action, the other worms were immediately drawn over.

There was only one last door left to the shelter. Zhang Shan held a bench leg in one hand. Pitiful resistance was still resistance. But in truth, out of all those present, only Zhang Shan could survive, because he had translocation which could pass through walls. He could even bring people out, although he could only save two. Zhang Shan would only do it as a last resort.

“Zhang Shan, you bring Luo Er and Ao Ziwei out,” Butcher suddenly said.

“Old Butcher, I’ll bring you out first!” Zhang Shan said. In terms of importance, Butcher was clearly the more important one. Emotionally, Zhang Shan would bring Butcher out first as well.

Butcher shook his head and smiled. “In this world, there’s no such logic as a teacher escaping and leaving his students to die.”

“Teacher, I won’t leave. If you must die, we’ll die together!” Ao Ziwei shook her head desperately. Gemini Star stubbornness came out very strongly in Ao Ziwei.

Some people wanted to “leave”, but had no idea what Butcher meant when he said leave. They could not bring themselves to ask.

Luo Er was a little calmer. “It’s not the last moments yet. Wang Zheng might make it in time!”

Regardless of that, Zhang Shan was very happy to have met Butcher. Damn it all, to be able to meet teachers like Xiao Fei and professors like Butcher in this life was a blessing. Even if he died in battle, it would be with no regrets.

The sound of the worms clawing the door was terrifying. Siemen and the rest had abandoned resistance. Against abyss Zergs, mecha were like cotton candy, let alone a few tables.

BOOM...

With a huge explosion, the commotion outside the door ceased. Wang Zheng had arrived. With a long range wheel, he had drawn the attention of the two Zerg. The door had already been cracked open a sliver. The two worms still flew towards Wang Zheng.

The beam saber cleaved a path, BOOM...

The runic mecha rose in the air. The worms that had been drawn into battle with the military at the door had been drawn over as well. Wang Zheng had no intention of clashing head-on. The wheels flew out, encircling the worms.

The runic mecha’s mobility was extremely high, and also fairly agile.

General Bredt had indeed given the fight till the death command. They must break in. The troops entrenched here were the elite troops of Gemini Star. But they had suffered fatal injuries, and were still unable to break their way in. The worms at the door had actually begun to play one versus all, but Bredt still seized the opportunity.

Large numbers of mecha warriors rushed in. Wang Zheng was still playing hit and run tactics, leading the worms around. Out of the blue, the runic wheels would shear one apart, breaking the worms’ formation. But Wang Zheng was constantly looking for the damned overmind. Where the hell was that bastard hiding?

Bredt had already rushed in with troops. Seeing the hovering runic mecha, he could not help heaving a sigh of relief. A pity that these talents were monopolized by the Milky Way. Such soldiers could be the deadliest point of a spear.

The battle situation had finally stabilized. The troops continued to rush in. In the end, the overmind had been captured alive. Wang Zheng indicated that such a dangerous thing should be eradicated, but evidently the military would keep it. The experiments would definitely continue.

People at different echelons and ranks thought differently. To Bredt and the rest, plans could not be called off. As for the traitor, they would definitely investigate it.

The entire base was reduced to little more than a wasteland. Wang Zheng and Lie Xin had come down from the runic mecha. The entire incident had incurred numerous losses. The only reward was that the runic mecha indeed had a great advantage against abyss Zergs.

The abyss was considered a resource of the Milky Way. It was not something that any country alone could get involved in. Runic mecha were the same. The negotiation between greater good and individual benefits was a perennial discussion for humanity. Of course, these were beyond Wang Zheng and the rest’s concerns.

“You two together?” Revitalized after the close shave, Zhang Shan had now turned to another issue.

“Zhang Shan, do you want to die?” Lie Xin asked icily.

If Lie Xin had laughed it off, Zhang Shan would think there was nothing going on. But with that kind of expression, Zhang Shan understood. He immediately shut his gap. He surreptitiously gave a thumbs up. Brother, you’re really something. You really pulled off the impossible.

Wang Zheng pretended to have seen nothing. He was better off leaving Lie Xin alone. This girl was too plucky... but her body was definitely the hottest amongst all the girls he knew.

Beauty was in the eye of the beholder, but sexiness was universal. Martian babes were really worth gushing over.

The subsequent matters were not up to them. The students were sent to safe places on the ground, while the military would take over things here. Of course, Butcher was staying. The experiment results had been stolen, and they had to incriminate those two immediately.

Such experiment results were very important and dangerous.

In the military healing tank, all of them heaved a sigh of relief. Luo Er and Basais, after their brush with death, were extremely high spirited and chatty. Of course, surviving a calamity had made them feel that being able to speak was a simple pleasure.

“Who would have thought the runic mecha was that awesome. The day that we conquer the abyss is upon us!” Basais exclaimed.

Wang Zheng smiled, and Lie Xin could not resist looking at Basais. “Don’t be so happy. The problem of mass producing runic mecha aside, what we faced today was not what we faced in the abyss, but a human-made imitation. Wang Zheng, what do you think?”

“Given humanity’s present situation, if we fight against the worms in the abyss head-on, only death awaits.”

Wang Zheng stated quietly. He was too calm. Those who had not experienced the abyss before were prone to celebrate every little improvement humanity made. But in truth, the worms were growing too. In truth, humanity was still far from catching up to the abyss. Of course, humankind also possessed some secret weapons he was unaware of, but from the standpoint of basic battle power, Wang Zheng did not feel that they had the advantage at all.

“You’re too humble.” Basais dismissed it. Luo Er was looking at Wang Zheng, eyes aglow. This person was really special. It seemed like he would never panic in any situation.

Lie Xin saw the look in Luo Er’s eyes. “Luo Er, your expression is very dangerous. This guy does not like your type.”

Luo Er turned with a smile. “You’re saying that Wang Zheng likes the sexy type?”

Zhang Shan was delighted. Looked like drama was unfolding. Although he was not the protagonist, it was more fuel for gossip.

Lie Xin shook her head. “The way I see it, he might be good for bed, but not as a boyfriend.”

Ao Ziwei was shocked, and Zhang Shan opened his fat mouth. “Keke, there are actually big differences amongst the three main planets of the Solar System. For example, I’m the meek and innocent type.”

No one bothered to respond to Zhang Shan. Wang Zheng was speechless as well.

“He likes Aina’s type,” Lie Xin said. She had to leave Wang Zheng some face, and had only said half of it.

Luo Er smiled and nodded. “The princess type? I think I’m very suitable.”

Luo Er was a classic Gemini Star person. Although she was petite, but was shapely. She was very cute and pretty, and especially sweet when she smiled. It was just that she dressed a little more plainly and professionally.

Wang Zheng shook his head irritably. Perhaps to an outsider, the status of princess held great attraction. But to Wang Zheng, that was an impediment. But there was no need to explain such things now. To get serious with a woman was a man’s greatest sorrow.

Seeing Lie Xin about to object, Basais could not resist intervening. “Princess Aslan is not the most elegant person in this world.”

“Oh, Princess of Arbiter? Can’t be,” Lie Xin spoke carelessly. She did not have any intention but to point out that a girl like Luo Er only saw Wang Zheng’s surface. But someone like Wang Zheng and his history was not something that any ordinary girl could accept.

Basais blurted out, “The greatest organization in this world is not any country, but the Milky Way Alliance Council!”

They were shocked, and Wang Zheng was stunned as well. Suddenly, he thought of something. The ferocious military intervention, and that general’s care for Luo Er, and his countenance of respect. This...

She looked like... The Milky Way Alliance Council Chairman was a Gemini Star person...
