Hold on, the system and I have never been angry

Chitose: "Orthopedics refers to a couple of people of the same generation who are related by blood but have become a couple."

Tu Ling shook his head: "No, my wife and I are not related by blood."

Chitose: "Then you guys——"

Lu Jinzhao covered Qiansui's mouth in time: "Sorry. Let's get back to business. How much do you know about the little golden retriever of the Kappa family?"

Tu Yue came out of the kitchen, holding two cups of warm black-purple liquid medicine. She handed one cup to Tu Ling and replied, "His full name is Heli Kapa, ​​he has a son in his old age, he is a playboy, I don't know anything else."

Idioms are like inserting hyperlinks in an article. Two words can summarize many things. Lu Jinzhao nodded in understanding: "It is not clear whether he is an enemy or a friend for the time being. Let's wait and see."

Qiansui scanned the liquid medicine, and the result showed that it was a neurological drug. "I thought only the Xingxiu series would have high mental requirements, but I didn't expect the Tiangang series to be not much better. The two beauties still have to rely on drugs to maintain stability."

Lu Jinzhao glanced at the scan results and said, "It's normal. They have just reached adulthood."

Tu Ling took a sip of the medicine, and her pretty face wrinkled: "Wife, your cooking skills are really amazing. Every time you cook the medicine, it tastes so good that it reaches a new level."

"Really?" Tu Yue raised her head and drank half the cup, then looked at Tu Ling: "Isn't it always tasted like this?"

Tu Ling pursed her lips: "No, today's is particularly bitter."

Tu Yue dug into his pocket and held out his palm in front of her: "I have a candy here."

Tu Ling smiled and took the candy, tilted his head back and drank the liquid medicine, then he peeled off the waxy coating in one second and threw the candy into his mouth: "My wife's candy is the sweetest."

When Lan Jue saw how Tu Ling and Tu Yue got along with each other, he couldn't help but feel a little envious. He propped up his chin and looked at Jian Tingzhi openly, thinking, it would be great if the senior could get along with him as intimately as they did.

Jian Tingzhi was concentrating on staring at the screen, his hands typing back and forth on the control interface, very busy. Feeling Lan Jue's gaze, he reached out and pinched Lan Jue's chin to force him to turn in another direction: "Don't look at me, finish your work."

Lan Jue was not annoyed when he was pushed away. Instead, he smiled innocently and said, "I'll listen to you."

Qiansui rolled his eyes and rubbed the back of Lu Jinzhao's head, making the hair stand up in disarray. "I can't stand it anymore. Where is the Singles Protection Association? Why are you living with two couples? Do you know how much this hurts me?!"

"Finish your work sooner, and you can leave here sooner." Lu Jinzhao picked it up by the scruff of its neck and put it on the table: "Also, you are not a single dog, you are a system, you have no gender, and you will not have a partner."

"That seems to be the case..." Chitose spread her hands, "Of course I'm not single, but you are."

Lu Jinzhao bent his knuckles and tapped Qiansui's head lightly: "At least I'm not a sex-obsessed person."

The task of organizing documents and extracting key information is entirely handed over to AI, and several people are responsible for specializing in the remaining encrypted files. In such a highly intelligent era, decryption is also a compulsory course in military academies.

We worked until late at night, but only managed to decipher 3%.

The huge amount of data is weighing on the nerves of everyone in the living room.

Even in the video link sent from the mobile fortress, several people looked like they had a headache.

Yi Cen covered his head with both hands, his five fingers opened and closed subconsciously, making his hair look like a mess, and he collapsed and shouted: "Boss, all those strings of code are dizzying, I'm not cut out for this, please let me go!"

Yiyi patted her back soothingly.

Hua Xi obviously had no talent for this, and his face was wrinkled more exaggeratedly than a freshly steamed bun: "I would rather go out and fight monsters than sit here facing the heavenly book with black eyes."

Taking a quick look at everyone's progress, I found that the results of a few people were unexpected.

Zhong Sheng was actually faster than Lu Bojin, and Shi Feng was second only to the two of them. It was obvious that the teaching quality of the military academy was first-class, and they received it very well.

The three of them were far ahead of the others.

And there's another idiot with zero progress, 20 billion.

Even the robot responsible for cooking in the kitchen can solve a few problems after being debugged by Lu Bojin.

"...Forget it, he can't even read words, he's just a pet, what on earth do I expect." Qiansui looked around, but didn't see the 20 billion. He stood upright on the table with his two legs, tapping the light curtain with his claws: "Where's the 20 billion?"

"Two billion people are guarding the gate outside!" On the screen, Nan Di stuck his head out and gestured with his hands and feet: "Boss, you don't know, during the time you were in the city, you didn't know how many people the damn masked man teleported this time. The man outside was falling down like hailstones, and there were waves of people around us. It just so happened that the fortress is still under repair and can't float in the air, so someone wanted to rob it without knowing the consequences, and we killed him. Now our total number of people is rising. If nothing unexpected happens, we can enter the city and join you after the mobile fortress is repaired in a few days!"

He pointed the camera towards the yard, which just happened to show the scene of Erbaiyi tearing the invaders apart with his bare hands. It was quite bloody and violent.

Yu Mo led several robots from the hotel to clean up the battlefield. While cleaning up the bodies and blood, he shouted to the 20 billion people who were killing like crazy, "Be careful not to destroy my garden."

Seeing Erbaiyi with that innocent and beautiful face tearing a living person apart, Qiansui was dumbfounded: "The child is not smart, but he is very strong."

Lan Jue and the others turned their heads away silently and stopped looking.

Lu Jinzhao didn't waver at all. He checked everyone's progress and arranged, "Well done. Send me today's results and go take a rest."

"From now on, Hua Xi, Yi Cen, and Er Baiyi will be responsible for guarding, and the rest of you will take over the paperwork."

"Good boss!"

Qiansui added: "Also, tell Erbaiyi not to eat too much, or he'll get indigestion."

Nan Di was stunned, then reacted: "Master Cat, Erbaiyi doesn't eat human flesh, nor does he eat raw meat."

Yi Cen was so excited that he burst into tears and rushed to the screen, "Thank you, Boss!"

"It's more tiring than fighting all day. I'm going to take a shower and go to bed. We'll continue tomorrow." Tu Ling rubbed the back of his neck and stretched: "Wife, let's go."

After receiving everyone's work, Qiansui sorted it out and sighed: "It seems that there is indeed strength in numbers. If it were just the two of us, we would never know how long it would take."

It imports the sorted documents into the system background, allowing it to automatically retrieve relevant passwords and decrypt them, and then send them to the mobile fortress for backup.

This way, it and its host can free up their hands to do other things without being trapped by decryption work.

Although the auction house has gathered a lot of VIP information, it is definitely not enough to rely on this alone, and more confidential information is needed. News that has not been confirmed by multiple parties cannot be 100% authentic.

Therefore, it and its host have to go visit other homes at night.

They don't plan to tell anyone else about this now.

"Brother Chao, where are you going to go tonight? How about going to meet that Kappa Golden Retriever first? I think he's weird. He showed up without warning and covered for you for no apparent reason. After he was done, he came to you to ask for payment. It sounds like he has bad intentions and there must be some conspiracy. Let's get rid of him in advance and put an end to it once and for all."

Lu Jinzhao stared at the city layout map, and his finger slid across the river in the city, landing on a street entrance: "Compared to the little golden retriever himself, I am more interested in his appearance in Xicheng District. Let's go over there first."

"Okay, let's go!"

*

The search and rescue plan came to nothing.

A thorough search of dozens of planets in the southwestern border galaxy failed to find any trace of living people.

Only monsters are left running rampant.

Without humans to eat, the monsters shifted their targets to other living creatures. Now, on each planet, only a few carnivorous animals with strong attack capabilities are still surviving.

The top military officials held several emergency meetings, ordering the soldiers to count the types of monsters, capture samples for experiments, and kill the rest.

Even in such an advanced age, the workload of cleaning up dozens of planets is still enormous.

Fortunately, the work of counting monster species went very smoothly. The monster illustrations that several people had compiled and posted anonymously on Starnet helped a lot. Military scientists used the data from their experiments to fill in the gaps, and the complete data on monsters in the southwest border appeared on the homepage of the military's official website.

At the same time, the fleet led by Sang Mo finally arrived at the northern border, which is the most remote from the central galaxy.

She said in the latest meeting that the north is mostly inhabited by nomadic peoples with a certain level of combat capability and is currently in good condition, but the types of monsters found in the north do not match the monster illustrations published on the military's official website.

She has personally captured several monsters and sent them to the laboratory. Scientists are conducting urgent research, and the experimental results will be compiled by a dedicated person and synchronized to the military's official website.

Excluding the southwestern border galaxy that suffered the first batch, the masked man's second operation covered the three major border galaxies in the north, west, and northeast.

Someone at the table speculated that perhaps the masked man wanted to tear open two holes on both sides of the empire, disperse the military's forces, and then concentrate the attack on one place, making it difficult for the other side to come to the rescue, thus achieving the goal of invading the empire's first line of defense.

This speculation was agreed by most of the participants.

The commanders of various local garrisons have stated that they have entered a state of war, and are hesitant as to whether they should disclose it to the public and summon a series of mecha owners.

The officers of the central galaxy turned their eyes towards the throne in tacit agreement.

"Admiral, the enemy's situation is unclear and we have suffered heavy losses. Can we consider implementing the 'Apocalypse' plan?"

Mo Yincang, who was sitting in the main seat, frowned and looked around: "'Apocalypse' is top secret and consumes a lot of manpower and resources. It must not be activated unless it is a matter of life and death!"

Sang Mo: "Is the current situation not enough to be the life-and-death moment you mentioned? You will only feel that it has reached a life-and-death moment when the enemy breaks into the central star system, breaks into the Tumen Palace, captures His Majesty alive, or the population of the empire is reduced to one third?"

Mo Yincang slammed his palm on the table, "No need to exaggerate here, no matter who that guy is, I will never let them set foot into the empire's territory!"

"Not only have they entered the empire's territory, they have also flattened a border star system. Thank you." Sang Mo rolled his eyes and retorted: "Admiral Mo, this is not the time for you to give a personal speech. Please compile these two pieces of intelligence and submit them to Her Royal Highness the Princess, and issue a Shadow Network restriction order to the people of the Central Star System, prohibiting them from transferring money to Shadow Network. Violators will be charged with treason."

Before Mo Yincang could get angry, Lan Ting added, "Also, have Dr. Kaya immediately start the screening process for new mecha owners, allowing all military school students and citizens with a physical fitness level of A or above to be screened."

"When a new mecha comes out, the procedure for selecting the holder requires the authorization of at least three top commanders. Who allows you to act on your own?" Mo Yincang raised his head and snorted with disdain: "I don't agree! The new mecha has not been inspected by the military, how can it be used directly? Moreover, how can those young men in the military academy support the mental strength required for the mecha? Not to mention ordinary citizens, most of them have not received professional training, how can they go to the battlefield?"

"Don't forget, Admiral Mo was just an ordinary person at first." Sang Mo sneered: "I am at the same level as you, so there is no need for me to listen to your orders. Lan Ting and I count as two. As for the third authorization, you will report it to Her Royal Highness the Princess, and she will make the decision."

Mo Yincang was not convinced: "If you are so capable, why don't you report it yourself?"

Sang Mo's holographic image instantly appeared next to Mo Yincang's image. She leaned close to his ear, lowered her voice, and threatened, "Don't think we don't know your little tricks. The message we sent to Tumen Palace has not received a reply. You deliberately had someone suppress it, right? Now, in front of all the non-commissioned officers present, you passed it to the princess, naturally to avoid giving her a handle, so that you won't go to the ministers to complain later. If you dare not pass it on, it will delay military intelligence."

Without waiting for anyone to react, Sang Mo left the meeting directly.

Lan Ting left after saying "Take care of yourself" and logged off.

The non-commissioned officers were silent. Mo Yincang felt embarrassed, handed the key points of the meeting to his adjutant, and left.

The three commanders left the table one after another, but the others did not dare to relax and immediately plunged into a new round of discussion. Although the final plan still needed to be submitted to a few people for review and decision, it was much better than watching the three commanders engage in meaningless arguments on the spot.

When gods fight, little devils suffer.

It’s impossible to persuade them, and it’s impossible to control them.

Only after the three of them leave can I work with peace of mind.

Seeing that the meeting was going smoothly, Sang Mo's adjutant secretly sent a message to his superior: [Mo Yincang has left the meeting.]

In the private channel, Sang Mo sighed: "Lao Mo's temperament has changed drastically since that incident, and his confrontation with you and me has become more obvious. Recently, it has become even worse. He doesn't even know how to avoid the lower part. If we want to continue the topic, you and I have to provoke him to leave the table..."

"How about telling him the truth?"

"No. This is a serious matter. We must be loyal to the person who entrusted us with this matter. We cannot let Lao Mo know about it. Let's not talk about him anymore. Is there any news about my son?"

Lan Ting shook his head: "From the playback of the AI ​​video, Lan Jue and the two girls from the Tu family never came out after entering the city. They are very safe. I'm just afraid that the damn masked man will show up and destroy the city."

"It's been a while since the masked man destroyed the city last time. There's no guarantee that he won't make any moves recently. Let's keep an eye on him for now. He's your child and mine, so he'll be fine."

"By the way, have you noticed the wheat-colored young man in their group?"

"Of course. He is a well-known figure on Starnet right now, and many people are discussing him. Just because he can take out that mecha that I have never seen before, I have to pay attention to him."

"I searched the entire Empire database and found no information about this person. I suspect he is a spy that the masked man deliberately planted next to Lan Jue."
