Chapter 80

~8 min read 1,469 words

Human Reform League, Ceylon Island.

This was a territory that had fallen into long-term war due to ethnic strife, with the Sinhalese and Tamils living on the island maintaining a state of confrontation and hostility for a long time.

Recently, intelligence showed that the Sinhalese, who occupied a large amount of land in the northern part of Ceylon Island and were numerous, had accepted secret aid from an overseas force. While forming an independent government, they dispatched a considerable number of armed forces to launch an offensive toward the Tamil territory in the south.

The Tamils, who were at a numerical disadvantage, began to request military aid from the Human Reform League government, with whom they had close relations. After receiving the request, the Human Reform League government considered that the solar power pipeline connecting the orbital elevator to their country passed through the Tamil sphere of influence.

In order to protect the solar power pipeline and maintain friendly relations with the Tamil forces, they dispatched a temporarily formed unit to the region under the name of peacekeeping, which included Li Boyong and Shihe, who were transferred from the BJ Military Region.

Ceylon Island, newly built Seventh MS Station of the Human Reform League.

A military transport plane was slowly landing, and then two transport vehicles carrying MS drove out from the opened cabin, transporting two land-combat Tierens into the base's MS hangar.

Li Boyong and Shihe arrived at the base with the vehicles and then reported to the unit commander.

"Lieutenant Li Boyong, reporting with Second Lieutenant Shihe Hafunis."

"At ease."

The person in charge of the station was a very rough-looking middle-aged Maozi with the rank of Major.

He was holding two personal files on Li Boyong and Shihe, flipping through them while observing these two newly dispatched MS pilots.

Lieutenant Li Boyong, 26 years old, orphan, parents were fallen soldiers, grew up in a facility for military orphans, joined the army after becoming an adult, and has served as an MS pilot ever since.

Second Lieutenant Shihe Hafunis, 18 years old, orphan, parents were also fallen soldiers, also grew up in a facility for military orphans, became an MS pilot at only 18, and was later assigned to the MS squad under Li Boyong's command.

There were no major problems with either of their resumes; they had grown up in military facilities since childhood and had high loyalty to the military.

But strangely, the two of them were suddenly arranged by the higher-ups to be in this newly formed frontline unit during such a special period when a war was about to break out.

Usually, pilots with rich combat experience would be transferred at such times, but there were no combat records on either of their resumes.

Seeing the unit commander constantly checking his and Shihe's files there, Li Boyong felt a bit nervous.

Logically speaking, the identities the system arranged for him and Shihe in this world had no problems, and all kinds of file procedures were very complete; apart from the similarity being a bit high, there was nothing unreliable about them.

But the reaction of this Maozi Major was a bit intriguing; normally, there was no need to study the files of two grunt pilots so seriously in person, right?

Thinking of the somewhat strange transfer order he and Shihe had suddenly received, Li Boyong smelled something fishy.

The Maozi Major felt a bit strange, but he didn't make Li Boyong wait too long. He put down the documents, stood up, returned a military salute, and said: "Very well, I have received the transfer order. From this moment on, Lieutenant Li Boyong and Second Lieutenant Shihe are officially under the command of the Seventh MS Squadron."

After a pause, the Maozi Major put away the military salute and continued: "In addition, according to intelligence, the Sinhalese armed forces will launch an offensive against the Tamil defense line tomorrow. At that time, our army will also be dispatched to assist in the defense. You two may go down and prepare for battle."

"Yes!"

Li Boyong and Shihe saluted again and then left the office.

The two returned to the hangar all the way, and Li Boyong began to arrange for the maintenance crew to perform maintenance work on the two Tierens. After all, the machines had been transported over a long distance, and some places still needed to be checked carefully again.

Shihe watched Li Boyong shouting and calling there from the side, thinking about tomorrow's battle, feeling a bit emotional in her heart.

She didn't expect that after arriving in a new world, she still couldn't escape the fate of fighting.

It wasn't that she had any complaints about Li Boyong because she had become his follower and had to fight.

It was just that she wasn't mentally prepared for the sudden need to be loyal to a new army and then fight against enemies she had no hatred for.

After all, after arriving in a new world, she inexplicably became an MS pilot for the Human Reform League. According to Li Boyong, it seemed that every time they arrived in a new world, the system would arrange a corresponding identity.

As for whether they needed to complete something after arriving in a new world, and whether they would go to a new world after completing it.

She had asked Li Boyong about these questions, but Li Boyong hadn't been able to answer.

Shihe knew that it might be the system's coercive force at work, so she gave up asking these questions, but she gradually had some guesses in her heart.

In the following period, she took the time to specifically understand the current world pattern of this world. It was somewhat similar to the world pattern during the Reorganization War period of her world, but there were also big differences.

Under the general environment of the depletion of fossil energy, humanity in this world developed solar power generation technology, and the world pattern evolved into three huge national groups and built three orbital elevators.

Then, the solar power generation system, which was 50,000 kilometers long and connected by three orbital elevators, became the new energy source for the development of human society in this world.

And in order to protect the three extremely fragile orbital elevators, the three major national groups began to develop military technology, strengthen armaments, and secretly conduct large-scale proxy wars, maintaining a strange world balance in political games.

Among them, the development of military technology gave birth to humanoid mobile weapons, a military technology that was widely used, which surprised Shihe. Although the world was different, this world actually also possessed MS development technology.

It was just that it still seemed a bit backward in terms of weapons, and various types of beam weapons had not been developed; most of the weapons used were still live ammunition.

Thinking of this, Shihe looked at the Tieren's mono-eye monitor carefully again and found that the Tieren and the ZAFT military's consistent mono-eye series really looked a bit similar, it was just that the machine was too bulky.

"What's wrong, spacing out here."

Li Boyong, who had arranged the maintenance examples for the maintenance crew, walked to Shihe's side and asked when he saw her staring at the Tieren.

Shihe came back to her senses and responded with a smile, "Nothing..."

Seeing her smile a bit reluctantly, Li Boyong's heartstrings were touched, thinking that Shihe had some thoughts because of tomorrow's battle, so he said: "Sorry, for dragging you into this kind of battle."

After all, he knew that Shihe didn't actually like things like fighting.

No!

It would be better to say she hated it, but for the sake of her fellow Coordinators, she still went to the battlefield.

But tomorrow's battle was not for PLANT.

Seeing Li Boyong's guilty face, Shihe knew what he was thinking, and she playfully tapped his forehead: "Why are you acting so sentimental at a time like this? When you forcibly held my hand back then, I didn't see you being so subtle."

"Didn't I say, there's no need to feel guilty about this kind of thing anymore." Shihe said seriously: "It doesn't matter if it's not a battle for PLANT; now, I am willing to fight for you."

"Shihe!"

Li Boyong was really touched and hugged Shihe with a moved face.

Then... then a pair of hands took the opportunity to grope around.

Shihe's face flushed, her brows furrowed, and she fiercely twisted the tender flesh on Li Boyong's waist.

"Ouch ouch ouch ouch!"

Li Boyong hissed and let go of Shihe.

Shihe looked at his funny appearance, unable to laugh or cry.

Really!

Why do you always do this kind of thing when I'm so moved...

Are all men such big pigs?
