Chapter 159 The Inflated Ge Xiaolun
Chapter 159 The Inflated Ge Xiaolun
Blue Star, Sun.
A year has passed since Li Yao left Blue Star and returned to Heavenly City.
Throughout the year, the situation on Earth was far more stable than expected, especially in China, where there was no widespread occupation or devastation.
The deep craters once plowed by war are being filled in little by little, and new buildings are springing up like mushrooms after rain.
The streets were bustling with people, and although some armed patrol teams could still be seen, the overall atmosphere was much more peaceful than it had been a year ago.
And most of this is thanks to the galactic war a year ago.
The demons and the gluttons turned an ambush into a complete rout.
This resulted in the main force of the Taotie being crippled in the war. In addition, the subsequent cleanup by the Lieyang Fleet left only a few scattered remnant fleets wandering outside the atmosphere, occasionally popping out to cause some small-scale damage.
Morgana also halted the gene virus deployment plan for some reason, and even ordered all the mutated demons to withdraw from China.
The number of casualties in the entire war was nearly half less than the original projections, and the postwar reconstruction progressed at an astonishing pace.
However, these inside stories are unknown to the general public.
Under deliberate manipulation of public opinion, everyone attributed this regained peace to Ge Xiaolun, the Galactic Force, and to the Super Soldier Company, who fought valiantly.
Today, Ge Xiaolun is recognized as the savior of Blue Star, and he is accompanied by cheers and admiration wherever he goes.
At this moment, in the conference room of the Sun's command center.
Around the conference table, several core members and senior executives of the Super Soldier Corps gathered together.
Lianfeng stood in front of the table, pointed to the holographic projection, and said calmly, "A new batch of dark alloy armor and new weapons have been assembled and will be distributed to the front-line troops next week."
She paused, her gaze sweeping over everyone: "If there's nothing else, the meeting can end here."
Before he could finish speaking, Ge Xiaolun suddenly spoke up, his tone urgent: "Commander Lianfeng, wait a moment. I think it's time for us to start working on a plan to rescue Qiangwei."
The meeting room fell silent for a moment.
The group looked at each other, and those who were about to get up and leave stopped.
Lianfeng was also taken aback for a moment, then looked at everyone: "What do you all think about rescuing Qiangwei?"
"We definitely have to try to save them, but..."
Liu Chuang spoke first, but he stopped halfway through his sentence, scratched the back of his head, and chuckled twice.
He's good at fighting on the battlefield, but he really can't come up with any concrete solutions for this kind of thing.
At this moment, Zhao Xin raised his hand and took over the conversation: "Well, I'd like to say a few words too."
"Rose is our comrade-in-arms, she definitely needs to be saved. But the question is, how? We still don't know her exact location, and isn't it a bit too early? We haven't even cleared out the Taotie on the ground yet."
Lianfeng nodded slightly and looked at Ge Xiaolun: "Rose is the tactical core of the Super Soldier Company. It must not fall into the hands of the enemy for long. The command has long agreed on this point."
"But as Zhao Xin said, we currently lack precise coordinate intelligence, and our overall combat readiness is not yet at a level where we can launch a proactive attack on the demon legion. Our primary task at present is to first eliminate the remaining enemy forces on Earth..."
"wrong."
Ge Xiaolun frowned and interrupted her directly, his tone filled with barely suppressed anxiety.
"Rose was captured by Morgana, so she must be on Devil One. We can ask Dean Rui to locate Devil One so we can just attack and rescue her. If we drag this out any longer, things could get complicated."
Lianfeng was interrupted, her eyebrows slightly raised, but she did not argue further.
She is nominally the supreme commander of the Sun, but in reality, she is there to assist the Galactic Force.
Over the past year, Ge Xiaolun's strength has increased by leaps and bounds, and with the added momentum, his prestige among the people and the army has grown day by day.
Moreover, Sun Wukong is not stationed on the Sun, so the one with the most influence here is already this young Galactic Force.
Zhao Xin quickly smoothed things over: "Xiao Lun, don't be anxious. We also want to save Qiangwei, but we need to plan this carefully."
"I'm not in a hurry, I just think we should go save Rose now," Ge Xiaolun shook his head in rebuttal, his brows furrowing even more.
Liu Chuang couldn't help but speak up at this point: "Xiao Lun, the problem is we haven't even finished fighting the Taotie yet. We don't even know if we can beat Morgana if we go on to fight her. What if we can't..."
Ge Xiaolun tapped the table with his hand, his tone confident: "I think we can win. Don't rush to disagree, let me analyze it for you."
He held up one finger: "First, I have the Xiongxin chip developed for me by the academy's teachers, and I now have a certain amount of knowledge about the void."
"Secondly, we have a Black Armor unit, as well as the Sun, a space battleship sponsored by Sister Na. Our equipment has been greatly improved compared to a year ago."
"Third, the demon legion was crippled by the angels in the Galactic War a year ago and has not recovered yet. I think they don't have much strength left."
At this point, his gaze swept over everyone, and his tone became even more confident: "More importantly, with the help of the academy, Chuangzi and I have both completely become third-generation gods."
He casually took out his greatsword and continued, "Chuangzi's axe is a god-slaying weapon, while my greatsword is a void weapon, plus I have the Qiankun miniature clock."
"With our current configuration, the strength of the Super Soldier Corps is among the top in the entire universe."
After he finished speaking, everyone in the conference room looked surprised.
Zhao Xin was the first to give a thumbs up, saying with admiration, "Wow, Xiao Lun! You went out for a few months of advanced studies with Teacher Rui, and you've come back completely transformed! Your analysis is so insightful."
"Hehe, it's alright, it's alright." Ge Xiaolun chuckled, scratching the back of his head, a hint of undisguised smugness on his face.
Of those present, only Lianfeng knew some of the inside information.
Several months ago, Ryze brought a man in black robes from somewhere. She had some guesses about the man's origins, but she didn't investigate further.
The important thing is that the man in black robes helped Ge Xiaolun develop a heaven-defying device called the "Male Core," which even amazed her, a scientist who had lived for tens of thousands of years.
To help Ge Xiaolun get started quickly, the other party even used ethereal techniques to directly infuse some ethereal knowledge into his brain, saving him from a long and arduous learning process.
After all, Ge Xiaolun didn't even understand the most basic programming, yet he had to personally participate in the manufacturing of the Xiongxin chip.
Neither Ryze nor she had any objections to this.
In retrospect, this was somewhat like forcing growth.
Lianfeng sighed softly in her heart.
Ge Xiaolun had never experienced the devastation of a city turning into scorched earth, nor had he witnessed the overwhelming combat power of alien beings.
He's had it too easy all along, so easy that he hasn't truly grasped the cruelty of the universe.
Even growth after hardship still requires time to mature, let alone strength that is pushed to grow rapidly.
But she couldn't say these words in public.
She had mentioned this to Ryze, but Ryze said he had his own plans.
"So I think we can definitely defeat Morgana and rescue Rose!" Ge Xiaolun sheathed his greatsword, his gaze resolute.
Just then, a wild laugh suddenly rang out in the conference room, mocking:
"Beat Liang Bing? Hahaha, you little brat, you've got quite the nerve!"
