Chapter 132: Operation Rescue Wang Liumei (Part 4)
Two thick red beams descended from the sky, narrowly grazing Sergei's GN-X and hitting the sea surface.
"What, reinforcements at a time like this?"
Sergei manipulated his machine to look up and saw a huge blue-and-white MA descending vertically, continuously firing beam cannons.
"Damn Celestial Being, to think they have such a machine. All units, spread out."
Sergei hurriedly ordered his subordinates.
The GN-X unit began to dodge the shelling, which saved Li Boyong's life.
The reinforcements sent by Celestial Being were a large armed transport container equipped with the Exia Gundam and GN Armor, possessing fierce firepower and a GN Field not inferior to the Virtue Gundam.
After the GN-X unit encircling the Flag dispersed, the Exia Gundam ejected from the large armed transport container and landed beside the Flag.
"Exia, starting support mission now." Setsuna's communication came through. "Li Boyong, is Wang Liumei alright?"
"Sleeping obediently behind me." Li Boyong smiled and pointed behind him.
"That's good. You guys retreat quickly; we'll break the encirclement." Setsuna said. "Lasse, start the breakout."
"Haha, received!"
Lasse, operating the large armed transport container, responded and began covering fire in the air.
"Damn it, what is this firepower..."
The fierce firepower forced Sergei and the Human Reform League forces to scatter, and the encirclement fell apart.
Li Boyong and Shihe hurriedly took the opportunity to break away, while Setsuna piloted the Exia Gundam to cover the rear.
"Wait, don't pursue."
Seeing this, Sergei stopped his subordinates who intended to pursue.
"Why?" Soma Peries asked, puzzled. "We still have the strength to fight."
"Take a good look at the condition of your teammates." Sergei scolded.
"This..."
This female Super Soldier, who only had the mission in her heart, observed the state of her teammates and found that many machines had traces of being hit.
Moreover, the remaining particle levels of her own machine were not high, and it was likely the same for everyone else.
"Do you understand now?" Sergei said. "Continuing the pursuit might yield results, but it will inevitably come at a significant cost."
"Understood!"
Soma Peries looked unwillingly at the departing Flag, secretly making a decision in her heart.
The revenge for her compatriots—it must be taken next time!
The Human Reform League gave up the pursuit, and Li Boyong and the others piloted their machines all the way south, returning to Wang Liumei's secret base.
Parking the machine, Li Boyong carried the still-sleeping Wang Liumei off the Flag.
"Liumei."
Shihe ran over, took off Wang Liumei's helmet, and checked her condition. "What's wrong with her?"
"Don't worry, she should be fine; I just gave her some sedatives. Calculating the time, she'll wake up in a moment."
Li Boyong waved his hand dismissively.
Shihe glared at him and carried the "black-bellied" loli to the infirmary.
The staff in the base were Wang Liumei's subordinates, and they all followed to the infirmary with concern.
Only Li Boyong, Setsuna, and Lasse remained.
"Thank you for your assistance this time; if you hadn't come, I would probably have sunk to the bottom of the sea by now."
Li Boyong thanked them sincerely.
"I don't think so." Setsuna shook his head and said bluntly, "Sumeragi said that if we didn't rescue you, you would definitely choose to surrender to the Human Reform League."
Li Boyong's expression stiffened; what is this kid saying such blunt truths for...
Sumeragi is really something, seeing through me so thoroughly.
Honestly, if Sumeragi hadn't agreed to send support, he really would have chosen to defect to the Human Reform League.
After all, the combat power gap was too wide; he could only try to rely on the Bear Uncle's past kindness and beam weapon technology to save the lives of the three of them.
But fortunately, Sumeragi agreed to send support, so Li Boyong didn't make that worst choice.
It's just that he didn't expect Setsuna to come so late; it was truly a close call, and he had almost been finished.
"Haha, Setsuna is joking."
Seeing the atmosphere become awkward due to Setsuna's bluntness, Lasse hurriedly stepped out to ease the atmosphere.
"Exactly, exactly; I've shed blood for the organization and have been loyal to the organization, so how could I betray the organization?"
Li Boyong casually laughed it off, considering the matter closed.
He then asked, "What are your plans next?"
"I plan to return to space as soon as possible; under the current situation, Ptolemaios is no longer safe." Setsuna replied.
"Then what are your plans?" Lasse asked.
"That's really hard to say." Li Boyong showed a bitter smile. "With that kind of thing happening to the Wang family, the intelligence system in Wang Liumei's hands has probably been dug out clean."
Then he pointed to the battered Flag and Throne Drei and said, "You've seen the situation here too; honestly, I really want to go up to space to help, but it seems there are some difficulties for the time being."
"Veda can no longer be trusted." He shrugged and continued to mutter, "So now I'm a bit unsure of what to do."
Setsuna and Lasse looked at the battered machines and fell silent.
Inside the infirmary.
"Brother!"
Wang Liumei woke up from her coma, looked at the surrounding environment, and was confused for a while.
Only when she saw Shihe's face did she confirm that she was out of danger.
"Young Lady, you're awake!"
"That's great."
In the base, the staff, who had originally been in a state of panic, were overjoyed at Wang Liumei's awakening.
This time, the Wang family had suffered a huge change due to a traitor's betrayal, and these staff members couldn't help but feel uneasy.
Now that Wang Liumei was safe and sound, these people seemed to have found their backbone again.
"Alright, I'm fine."
Wang Liumei shook her head, shaking off the residual dizziness in her brain.
She took a deep breath and said calmly, "I was able to escape danger this time thanks to everyone not abandoning me; I thank you all here."
"But the situation is urgent now, and I hope everyone can return to their work posts."
"Don't worry, the Wang family won't fall so easily."
"I guarantee it to everyone!"
After hearing this, the staff replied in unison, "Understood, Young Lady."
Subsequently, the staff returned to the hangar and began the maintenance work on the machines.
After everyone had left, Wang Liumei could no longer suppress the grief in her heart and threw herself into Shihe's arms.
She bit her lip tightly, and faint, intermittent gasps of breath came out, making Shihe's heart ache.
"Liumei, if you want to cry, cry it out; don't hold it in your heart."
Shihe gently patted Wang Liumei's back.
"Brother... Brother..."
Wang Liumei could no longer hold back and cried like a child in Shihe's arms.
"There, there, it's good to cry it out, it's good to cry it out."
Shihe continued to gently pat Wang Liumei's back, comforting the girl who had just lost her brother.
In the hangar.
Setsuna said goodbye to Li Boyong and boarded the Exia Gundam, only to be shocked to find that the machine's operating system had completely failed.
In the same situation as the Exia were the other three Gundams in space. ===== CHAPTER 133 =====
