Chapter 134: Arriving In Empire Territory
“Beep…”
While the two were pulling at each other, Liu Qi’s optical computer lit up. Zhao Yaohu hurriedly shouted to stop Liu Qi, “Brother Liu, someone sent you a message. Check it quickly!”
Liu Qi stopped. He thought it should be Shi Zhen Guang and the others contacting him, but unexpectedly…
“An’an!” Liu Qi excitedly looked at the communication and hurriedly opened it. After seeing the content inside, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Then he hurriedly asked about An’an and their situation, asking where they were.
He then contacted Shi Zhen Guang and told him the message An’an had sent.
At this time, Shi Zhen Guang also received the message from his son. After learning that his daughter and son were both safe and sound, his sad and pained heart finally lightened.
In these two months, when he learned that his daughter had also gone missing, he was endlessly regretful, self-blaming, guilty, and pained…
To not let his wife and family worry, after arranging things, he told everyone he was going to pick up his daughter and son, and then he came.
No one knew how sad he felt when he left.
At the same time, the closer he got to Edge Star, the heavier his mood became.
He never expected, never expected his son to send a message saying they were safe!
At this moment, Shi Zhen Guang was overjoyed. He squatted on the ground and burst into tears, as if the heavy mood of these two months dissipated with his crying.
“Uncle? Uncle? What’s wrong?” Shi Jinbai was about to call his uncle to set off. When he reached the door, he heard his uncle’s sobbing and hurriedly knocked.
Shi Zhen Guang cried and laughed, got up and opened the door, tears streaming down as he smiled at his nephew, “Anfeng and An’an are fine, they’re fine!”
Shi Jinbai heard the news and his face also showed an excited smile, “That’s great, as long as they’re fine. Where are they now? Let’s go pick them up!”
Shi Jinbai was originally going directly to his appointment with the Ninth Legion. Halfway there, he encountered his uncle heading to Edge Star. He happened to be going afterward to inspect the Ninth Legion garrisoned at Edge Star, so he came along.
Especially after learning that his cousin had gone missing while searching for his other cousin, he had to come check the situation.
Shi Zhen Guang regained his composure, wiped his tears, and immediately called his daughter.
But it was hung up.
Then he saw the message from his daughter, saying the signal there was bad and they couldn’t connect communications.
Shi Zhen Guang hurriedly sent a message, asking his daughter where they were.
Shi An’an saw Father asking where they were. She looked up at Eldest Brother, “Eldest Brother, where is this?”
Lin Xi and Shi Anfeng’s faces looked a bit ugly at this time. Looking at their current position on the optical computer, they stiffly looked up at Shi An’an.
Shi An’an: “?”
Shi Anfeng tugged at the corner of his mouth, “Empire border…”
“Empire?!!!” Shi An’an was slightly stunned.
Lin Xi gave a bitter smile, “I didn’t expect them to send us to the Empire… This is a bit… cough, deadly!”
Shi An’an’s thoughts turned to Tudou, the little lion that had accompanied her for a while…
“Look!”
Hearing Lin Xi’s exclamation, Shi Anfeng and Shi An’an both looked up and saw that what was originally just one mecha fighting a star beast now had a group of mechas arriving, all joining the combat.
Moreover, there were various giant animals fighting the star beasts.
Seeing these animals, Shi An’an’s spiritual sense quickly searched. She unconsciously wanted to see Tudou.
At this time, the Tudou that Shi An’an was thinking of—oh, it was Xiu—was commanding the battle.
He was originally going to return to the Empire, but midway he learned of the star beast tide at Edge Star, so he came straight here.
Looking at the star beasts that were fiercer than before, Xiu couldn’t help but frown.
“Your Highness.” Lake saw Your Highness frowning and thought he was uncomfortable somewhere.
Xiu waved his hand, “I’m fine.”
“Your Highness!” At this time, Nov hurried over.
“Your Highness! I found Federation people!”
Nov put the surveillance footage in front of Your Highness, “Look, there are three people crawling here. Judging by their uniforms, they’re from the Federation legion. They actually sneaked into our Empire’s territory! So brazen!”
Xiu looked coldly at the three people. Suddenly, he felt the figure of the person crawling in the middle was somewhat familiar.
“Zoom in on the lens.”
“Yes!” Nov controlled the micro drone to approach the three Federation people.
When the micro drone got close, Shi An’an and the other two keenly looked up, “Oh no, we’ve been discovered by Empire people!”
Lin Xi saw the surveillance device in the air and asked the two in a low voice, “How about we jump into another black hole?”
At this moment, the surveillance footage happened to capture the three people’s faces. Xiu clearly saw the face of the person in the middle, abruptly stood up, and quickly ran outside.
“Your Highness?” Lake looked puzzled at the doorway, not knowing what was wrong with Your Highness. He hurriedly wanted to follow.
“Don’t go. Your Highness left, you have to stay here and hold the fort!” Nov looked at the footage just now and suddenly realized, “Oh, I know why Your Highness is in such a hurry!”
“What?” Sail secretly craned his neck to look over.
“Because of her!” Nov pointed at Shi An’an in the middle.
“A woman?”
Nov touched his chin, “Probably, otherwise why would Your Highness be in such a hurry? Your Highness must be feeling emotional upon seeing something familiar. Did he see this Federation woman and remember that girl from before?”
“But… she doesn’t look the same!” Sail looked at Shi An’an’s appearance and said.
“Idiot! The girl in the live stream room had her appearance edited to begin with. You’ve never even seen what that girl really looks like!”
“Oh, but Your Highness wouldn’t lose composure just seeing a Federation woman!” Sail didn’t believe Your Highness would rush over for a woman.
“He must know these two Federation men!” Sail guessed.
“…” Lake watched the battle situation while worrying about Your Highness’s safety in his heart, ignoring the chattering of the two behind him.
As soon as Xiu left the camp, he transformed into a huge lion and quickly ran toward Shi An’an’s direction.
“Roar!”
A star beast discovered Xiu and immediately charged madly at him.
Xiu looked at the obstructing star beast in front of him and impatiently slapped it with one paw, sending it into the ground.
“Holy crap! That lion is awesome!!!” Lin Xi happened to see this scene and couldn’t help but exclaim, “This Empire people’s second form is no joke. This combat power is top-notch!”
Shi An’an was already somewhat dazed at this time because she recognized that this lion was Tudou’s adult form, which was Xiu!
“Let’s go, before they come over to arrest us!”
Shi Anfeng glanced at the battlefield and said.
Lin Xi nodded in agreement. They had been discovered. Star beasts were troublesome, and similarly, being caught by Empire people would make things even more complicated.
“An’an?” Shi Anfeng looked puzzled at his dazed younger sister and followed her gaze, seeing his younger sister staring straight at that lion.
However, Shi Anfeng gradually sensed something wrong, “This lion is coming toward us!”
Lin Xi heard this, immediately took out his weapon, and vigilantly watched the increasingly close lion.
