Duan Hengye was very focused on his work, and even though he had already stood up, he was still startled for a moment when he realized that there was a person standing behind him. Because he had been looking at the glowing line in front of him, after turning around, Duan Hengye’s line of sight naturally took on a little bit of the light imprint caused by looking at the bright spot for a long time. He couldn’t help but squint his eyes, and after a little while, the silhouette in his line of sight finally became clearer.
Surprisingly, it was Meng Jinhuai? Why would he suddenly come to the top of the mecha?
As far as Duan Hengye knew, Meng Jinhuai had just finished working continuously for more than ten hours, and the Marshal was a person who was very strict with himself and had an extremely strong sense of responsibility. Meng Jinhuai understood how important it was to have enough rest time, so if it wasn’t for something big happening, he definitely wouldn’t have suddenly appeared here.
Because he was too shocked, the second he saw Meng Jinhuai’s figure appear, Duan Hengye couldn’t help but speak out the doubts in his heart.
“Why did you come over?”
After hearing Duan Hengye’s words, Meng Jinhuai, who had been standing directly in front of him without moving, finally slowly walked over towards Duan Hengye’s location. Meng Jinhuai didn’t directly answer Duan Hengye’s question, after he walked over, he first reached out his hand to gently touch Duan Hengye’s neck. After he withdrew his hand, Meng Jinhuai’s eyes suddenly changed, and then he spoke to Duan Hengye, ”The Lai Sheng Alliance and the other four stars are concentrating all of their forces to attack the Ye Tian Empire at the same time. There are fourteen minutes until the mechas gather for battle.”
In fact, just a few minutes ago, a notification came from inside the maintenance hall outside the mecha. However, because the internal soundproofing system of the mecha Nanwei that Duan Hengye was in at the moment was simply too powerful, he didn’t hear the beeps from outside.
The expression on Meng Jinhuai’s face when he said this was extremely calm, as if he wasn’t talking about a w.ar that had suddenly erupted between several countries, but rather some trivial matter in life. In fact, during this recent period of time, there had been quite a few people who guessed that there would be such a w.ar, but after hearing about it personally, Duan Hengye was still a little unresponsive for a while.
Duan Hengye rarely froze like this, he had always given people the impression that he was strong and calm. After seeing Duan Hengye’s expression, Meng Jin Huai laughed softly, then moved closer and gently rubbed his thumb against Duan Hengye’s cheek “Don’t worry about it.” Meng Jinhuai said.
Unlike ordinary mechas that needed to do an identity check in the cockpit before they could be turned on, Duan Hengye used a new identity verification system on Nanwei. Now with the arrival of the mecha’s owner, the countdown began inside Nan Wei.
Even though there was no real-time voice chime, from the corner of his eyes, Duan Hengye still saw that not far away, a light screen that originally had no content suddenly lit up, and then the countdown began. And now …… there were still twelve minutes before the mechas assembled for battle.
After all, having already stayed on this starship for such a long time, Duan Hengye was originally not a person who had no understanding of the cruelty of w.ar. After Meng Jinhuai’s words fell, his heartbeat began to uncontrollably accelerate, but even though he gradually tensed up, after listening to his words, Duan Hengye immediately nodded, and then, while rejoining the line that he had just been on, he said to Meng Jinhuai, “Alright, I’ll quickly finish handling the rest of the work.”
As things stood, Duan Hengye was really very glad that he had chosen to simplify the steps to complete his work. If he had really followed the steps stated, this time, he would have definitely delayed Meng Jinhuai’s trip. The moment he thought of this, Duan Hengye couldn’t help but break out into a cold sweat once again.
Although the usual Duan Hengye was a very calm person, after seeing the tips on the light device, the pressure in his heart gradually increased. Duan Hengye squatted down again, and then began to speed up his movements. Under normal circumstances, after encountering this kind of thing, a person’s hands would be unable to resist trembling. But at this moment, his spirit had completely controlled the physical body. While he was speeding up , the precision under his hands didn’t decrease even a little bit.
Right at this moment, Meng Jinhuai also went to the upper level of the mecha’s cockpit through the mecha’s internal passageway. In fact, according to the speed just now, Duan Hengye wouldn’t be able to finish the rest of the work within twelve minutes. But in an emergency situation, his potential was also stimulated. His two hands were really like the operating arms of a top robot, hanging in the air without feeling the slightest bit of fatigue, and regardless of whether or not there were beads of sweat on his forehead, Duan Hengye’s movements didn’t make any pauses.
At this time, Duan Hengye’s brain had absolutely no room to think of anything else, and his entire body was focused on his work, not daring to be distracted in the slightest.
Finally, it was in Duan Hengye’s hands that the operation was completed. At the moment when the line prompt lighting changed, the last minute was left on the screen. Duan Hengye quickly stood up from the ground and then saw a countdown of 57 seconds.
Even though he wanted to accompany this mecha to the battlefield, reason still told him that now was not a good time. If he rashly followed along, his unprepared self would only add to the burden of the military department.
So after seeing the countdown on the light screen, Duan Hengye hurriedly walked towards the nearest exit of the mecha. In fact, right now, Duan Hengye wanted to run, but he didn’t know what was going on, obviously he hadn’t done any exercise just now, but right now, he had a feeling of powerlessness. It was as if he had just finished a three thousand meter long-distance run, his limbs were weak and it was difficult to accelerate.
But fortunately, Duan Hengye knew the internal structure of the mecha extremely well, and he had also reserved quite a few exits for this place in advance. After half a minute or so, Duan Hengye arrived at the nearest exit. Because of the sensing with the light device, the moment Duan Hengye opened the cabin door of the mecha, the small hovercraft was already waiting there. Looking down from where he was now would reveal the extremely terrifying height, but because of the urgency of the situation, Duan Hengye surprisingly didn’t have time to think about it.
Right at the moment when the huge mecha Nan Wei started, Duan Hengye finally stood on the hovercraft. However, before he could stand firmly, the hovercraft suddenly accelerated, and then flew towards the other side of this huge chamber at the fastest speed possible. This sudden acceleration really caught him off guard, and Duan Hengye subconsciously held the block in front of him so that he wouldn’t fall down.
After getting out of the mecha, he realized that there was no one else in the large mecha maintenance cabin except him. Right now, there was still a portion of the mechas parked underneath his feet – these were roughly the ones that hadn’t completed their maintenance tasks for the time being, and other than them, the rest of the mechas that Duan Hengye had seen just now had all disappeared. From this, it could be seen that the military department had also taken out its strongest forces to deal with this w.ar today.
Duan Hengye had seen mecha Nan Wei take off countless times before, but in his opinion, none of them were more shocking than the current scene. This time, behind the mecha wasn’t some docking pad in the setting sun or the blue sea, but the starship’s silvery-white bulkheads – looking at it this way, it seemed as if the background was a little monotonous.
But at the same time that the mecha flew up and the exit at the top of the bulkhead opened, the brilliant river of stars also seemed to flow into the interior of the starship from within this exit. Because of the hatch opening, the semi-open small hovercraft that Duan Hengye was traveling in also became fully closed. After seeing the magnificent scene overhead, Duan Hengye couldn’t help but stretch out his hand and cling to the bulkhead.
Meng Jinhuai raised the mecha to its highest operating speed, and because the instantaneous speed was too fast, just as the mecha flew out, Duan Hengye even felt the vibrations coming from the air. By the time the mecha disappeared, the palms of his hands that had been attached to the bulkhead had gone numb.
Now that the mecha had flown out, the starship’s hatch hadn’t completely closed. Through the gap Duan Hengye saw that the huge mecha was flying towards the distant starry sky. There was a light amidst the pitch blackness-except for the stars, all of them were Ye Tian Empire’s mechas that had gone out to battle.
The word “spectacular” wasn’t enough to describe such a scene.
During the time when the starship’s hatch was still open, Duan Hengye had been standing on the hovercraft and looking out. After a while, the air vibrations caused by the mecha’s acceleration finally faded away, and the hatch was completely closed. After seeing the re-merged ceiling and the empty landscape of the maintenance bay, Duan Hengye actually had the feeling that he had just had a dream.
After standing here for a while longer, he finally reset the hovercraft’s path and then flew towards the place where he lived.
It was also at this time that his light device suddenly received two messages at the same time – they were from the doctor on the starship and Duan Hengye’s assistant, Ye Pu. The specific words written by the two were different, but they shared a common core meaning: Yu Xinran had finally woken up from her coma!
Although the Southern Star’s side had been lowering the impact of Yu Xinran’s incident, after some time, through the recent intensive and detailed battle reports, there were still quite a few people who guessed that something had definitely gone terribly wrong on her side. Although after a long slumber, the awakened Yu Xinran would still need some time to recover, but no matter what, the news of the Empire’s other Admiral awakening would definitely invigorate Ye Tian.
After thinking about this, Duan Hengye couldn’t help but let out a sigh of relief. The hovercraft flew out of the maintenance bay’s door and continued quickly towards the medical room.

Merry Christmas and happy new year in advance ♥️♥️
