Chapter 382: Logistics Deployment

~7 min read 1,273 words

Vulkan looked at Yingxin with some helplessness; the little one was stroking Vulkan's head with her small hands, letting out silver-bell-like laughter from time to time.

Every time he returned, the little one would inevitably mention Angron within three sentences; he was truly curious if the little one would ask about him if Angron returned early.

"Vulkan? You're home a bit early today."

Vulkan held Yingxin and turned his head to see it was Yingxin's mother, who had been out. Seeing her carrying a backpack, he took it from her hand with his free hand and asked.

"Grandmother, what is this you've brought?"

"It's clothes prepared for Yingxin. The little one's current clothes are a bit small, so I thought I'd have them altered to be larger."

"Hm? Are they?"

As Vulkan said this, he looked at Yingxin, feeling that the little one hadn't grown much.

"Don't compare yourself to her; is there any comparison to be made? By the way, did your father say he would be back tonight?"

"Yes, Father said he would be back tonight."

"Alright then, you go keep Yingxin company and play for a while; I'm going to see what food we have left in the house."

Watching Yingxin's mother enter the kitchen, Vulkan placed Yingxin back on the ground and sat down on the floor to play with her.

Soon, Yingzhou returned together with Angron; at this time, Angron was already 2.9 meters tall.

After Yingxin saw Angron, she behaved exactly the same way she did when she saw Vulkan, which made Vulkan feel slightly better inside.

Yingzhou brought up the matter of the Zerg attacking the Ninth Defense Zone with Angron and Vulkan in the living room.

"Vulkan and I will take the troops to exterminate the Zerg; Angron, you stay in the Ninth Defense Zone and continue to handle the daily affairs."

Upon hearing Yingzhou say this, Angron spoke up immediately.

"Father, why? I can also go to the battlefield to kill the enemy."

Yingzhou waved his hand to let Angron calm down and said.

"Because I need to prevent any accidents from occurring in the Ninth Defense Zone again, so I need you to hold down the fort here. Only with you in the Ninth Defense Zone can I set my mind at ease to go and eliminate the invading Alien."

Hearing Yingzhou say this, Angron took a deep breath and nodded, saying.

"Since Father has entrusted such an important task to me, I will certainly not let you down!"

"It is not my expectations, but the expectations of the people in the Outer City. Some of the things you have done have also gained the recognition of many of the masses. You have become much more steady over these past two years; there will be plenty of opportunities to help me on the battlefield in the future."

Hearing Yingzhou's words, Angron nodded solemnly and said.

"Yes! Father, the recognition of the masses will only make me consider things more responsibly!"

After the three of them chatted briefly in the spacious living room, Yingzhou saw Yingxin's mother walk out of the kitchen, followed by two medical Xiunu carrying quite a bit of food, which they placed on the large dining table.

"Mom, why did you do it yourself? I heard you've been helping those survivors who were rescued get used to life in the Ninth Defense Zone recently? How does it feel?"

Yingzhou helped Yingxin's mother to the dining table and asked in a calm tone.

"They clearly still haven't adapted to the current living environment, especially those children born in the Zerg Breeding Ground; they are full of curiosity about everything related to Humans, and it makes my heart ache to see them."

"Well, at least they still have a chance to return to the environment of Human Civilization. By the way, Mom, I will be taking Vulkan out for a trip in a few days and won't be coming home."

Yingzhou stuffed a piece of bread into his mouth, swallowed it, and said.

"Are you going out to fight a war? Why do you have to take Vulkan with you?"

Hearing this, Yingxin's mother paused the hand that was feeding Yingxin and asked Yingzhou in a low voice.

"It's fine, Mom. Vulkan and I will be fine. This trip is intended to wipe out the Zerg forces coming to attack us, to let the Zerg know that the Human Alliance is no longer the Human Alliance it once was. Don't worry, Mom, we won't have any trouble."

Yingxin's mother stopped speaking and sat silently in her chair. After a long while, she slowly said.

"I know. Xiaozhou, you have many things on your mind right now, and there are many things you need to do. Go ahead, Mom supports you."

Hearing Yingxin's mother say this, Yingzhou nodded and said.

"Mom, with your support, this war will surely be won!"

"Yes, Grandmother, this battle will surely be a great victory!"

Even Yingxin followed suit and said.

"Great... great victory."

"Hahaha, this child..."

The cute appearance made everyone burst into laughter; the family was harmonious, even if the scene was a bit incongruous.

Ninth Defense Zone Military Region.

This morning, Kusake was training with his comrades-in-arms, and while enjoying breakfast, he heard several comrades discussing in low voices.

"Do you know? It seems a lot of supplies were transferred from the Outer City today. Is there some movement from the Alien Race? Are they preparing to start attacking us here?"

"I don't know. After training for so long, I've long wanted to go to the battlefield to kill the Alien Race!"

"Stop bragging, don't get scared when the time comes."

"Tch, could they be more terrifying than our previous instructor?"

Kusake sat quietly in the corner, the heated discussion of those comrades reaching his ears.

He raised his hand expressionlessly and slowly brought the piece of bread that was still steaming into his mouth. The moment the bread touched his lips, a rich, sweet fragrance surged into Kusake's mouth like a clear spring.

He chewed gently, feeling the softness and delicacy of the bread; every chew seemed to release even more sweet flavor.

Kusake narrowed his eyes slightly, enjoying the beauty of this moment. Immediately after, he picked up a bowl of hot soup from the side, carefully blew away the heat on the surface, and took a small sip. The hot soup slid down his throat, bringing a wave of warmth that made every cell in his body seem to be cheering.

For Kusake, being able to taste such delicious food after grueling daily training was simply a rare enjoyment.

"If you had seen those Alien Race that attacked us, you wouldn't be spouting such nonsense."

After Kusake finished his breakfast, he said quietly.

His words immediately caught the attention of the comrades who were discussing the topic. They looked at Kusake, and upon seeing it was him, their initially unconvinced expressions softened slightly.

A Reserve Army soldier asked Kusake.

"Kusake, it seems you've seen those Demon before. Can you tell us what the situation is with those Alien Race?"

"Their appearance is so terrifying that I cannot describe it with words. Even without an Awakened Back Spirit, I could feel the oppression from their terrifying power."

As for the rest, there is nothing more to say. When you encounter the Alien Race, do not hesitate; use every means of attack to kill them. Their abilities vary, so do not give them the chance to attack us. In short, do not be careless, and do not be afraid; the Emperor is with us!
