When the last Xing Dao mecha in the sky fell, the continuous fire from the Starry Sky finally stopped.
In the control room of the spaceship, Xiao Wu's cheerful voice sounded.
"This time, 659 enemy mechas were shot down, 53 escaped, and 19 suffered irreparable damage."
Hearing the battle report, Vir slowly exhaled. Her forehead was already wet with sweat, but her purple eyes were shining with a strange light and excitement.
She had been alone in the Starry Sky for many years, and naturally, she didn't just rely on her Elementalist skills. It was just that these skills had been abandoned for many years, and she didn't expect to pick them up one day.
At this moment, a cup of water was placed in her hand.
Viv lowered her head and saw the young boy holding a cup of water. He looked up at her with admiration and worship in his eyes.
"Mom, drink some water," he said.
Hearing her son's young and obedient voice, Vir felt her heart melt into water.
All the sharpness on her body instantly disappeared, and she returned to her original gentle and weak self. She reached out and took the cup, and couldn't help but kiss the little boy's forehead.
"Thank you, baby ~"
Vir smiled, and Xiao Qiong covered the place where he was kissed. His face instantly turned red, and he shyly lowered his head.
The little boy lowered his head, but he couldn't help but steal glances at Vir. Seeing her drink the water, Xiao Qiong smiled happily.
Although he didn't have the ability to protect his mom now, he could take care of her and make sure she didn't get injured or sick again. She could always be by his side in the future.
He really … didn't want to lose his mom again.
Vir didn't know what the little boy was thinking. She drank a few mouthfuls of water. Although it was just a normal warm water, she felt that it was sweet.
These days, she got along well with her son.
From the initial awkwardness to the closeness, every change made her feel so moved that she wanted to cry, and now, there was a kind of happiness lingering in her heart.
This kind of happiness was even greater than that of winning the battle just now.
Xiao Wu didn't broadcast anymore. Instead, he quietly put away all the firepower systems of the Starry Sky.
"Pata, pata, pata, pata …"
When all the splints were closed again, the Starry Sky had once again turned into an ordinary civilian spaceship. Like a fat black sheep, it began its return journey.
However, the Skarta people who had witnessed the entire battle and the players who were watching the livestream would definitely not treat this spaceship as a harmless little sheep.
This was a black ship, a black ship not just in name but also in reality!
On the way back, the shuttles and fleets of Planet Sgeta all made way for it, welcoming its return with the etiquette of welcoming a hero.
At the capital port of planet Sgeta, the people who had come to watch the welcoming ceremony of the Roland envoys did not expect to witness such an exciting battle with their own eyes.
Although the defense of Planet Sgeta had suffered a crushing defeat, and although they had borrowed the strength of the Roland Empire, they had still defeated the hated Xing Dao!
At first, the applause was sparse. Then, it became a sea of cheers and applause.
The people cheered and celebrated. Their impression of Roland, the second weakest country in the galaxy, had completely changed at this moment.
The two supervisors in charge of the mine were also sitting in front of the TV at this moment.
Although they said that they were not interested in this ceremony, they were not the only ones in the mine. The others were quite interested in the news of Roland's visit.
There was only one TV in the rest area of the mine, so they were forced to watch it together.
At the beginning of the livestream, they once again mocked the Roland Empire. After all, it was too shabby to only have one civilian spaceship.
No country had ever visited Sgeta with such a shabby spaceship.
And when they witnessed the scene of the spaceship baring its fangs, their jaws dropped to the ground.
Then, they looked at the terrifying power and precise tracking ability of the spaceship. Not only did it kill the entire army of Planet Sgeta, it also defeated the terrifying Xing Dao!
"Roland is too strong!"
"This country is completely different from the past."
"I heard that Roland was very strong a hundred years ago, but then it fell because of a natural disaster. It seems that it has risen again!"
"Hahaha, luckily I didn't say anything bad about Roland. I am quite supportive of His Majesty helping Roland. After all, one should not forget one's roots."
"Yes, I heard that the envoy this time is the princess of Roland who helped us before. I didn't expect history to repeat itself."
The two supervisors felt like they were sitting on pins and needles. Their faces were full of shame. However, when they saw the black spaceship on the screen, they did change their opinion of Roland.
It was a kind of silent power. It was low-key, but it had absolute strength!
Perhaps, this was what a strong country should be like.
The Starship finally landed at the port. When Vir and Xiao Qiong walked down the escalator, they saw the members of the royal family of the Skerta Empire waiting below.
His Majesty Anta excitedly walked up to them.
"Princess Vir, long time no see. I didn't expect to see you again. You have done Sgeta a big favor!"
His Majesty Anta even used honorifics.
Vril just smiled faintly. She looked elegant and calm, full of intellectual beauty.
"You must be joking. It was nothing."
His Majesty Anta hurriedly shook his head. "I'm not joking!"
From the situation of the battle between the Sgeta army and the Xing Dao, anyone with a discerning eye could see that the Sgeta army was definitely going to be defeated. If that wasn't the case, perhaps Vir wouldn't have decided to help.
And once the Sgeta army was defeated, His Majesty Anta was sure that Planet Sgeta would suffer heavy losses this time. Furthermore, because of the live broadcast, the impact would be even more far-reaching and could lead to a series of problems.
It could be said that this time, the Roland Empire didn't just help him solve the problem of the Xing Dao.
His Majesty Anta's gratitude towards Roland was written all over his face.
Crown Prince Uta, on the other hand, was a little awkward.
He watched as the mecha army that he had trained for so long was defeated, while the weak country that he despised actually turned the tide at the most crucial moment. The difference between them was too big.
But he was the future Crown Prince after all. He still had some magnanimity and quickly adjusted himself.
Since he had made a mistake before, he just had to make up for it in the future. Fortunately, he didn't have any contact with Roland before, so he didn't make any irreparable mistakes.
In terms of face, he was still okay.
In the worst case scenario, he could just give Roland a little more help.
Other than the Sgeta people who were embarrassed, the players on the Starry Sky weren't too happy either.
They originally thought that the Xing Dao mechas were left for them. But in the end, the Starry Sky was as fierce as a tiger, and in the blink of an eye, all the escaping mechas were defeated!
Although it was really beautiful, especially when they saw the Sgeta people's shocked expressions, they felt a sense of satisfaction. But …
It was satisfying, but not completely satisfying.
Because if they didn't do anything, they wouldn't get any rewards!
Even if some of the Xing Dao escaped, it wasn't a lot! Wasn't Planet Sgeta a newly released Interstellar map?
They looked at the Xing Dao and Sgeta people's mechas and wanted to cry, okay? When will the mechas be released to the public?!
Information about Planet Sgeta had already been posted on the Starry Sky forum by some experts. Most of it was from the live broadcast of the Super Invincible Hottie Competition. Of course, it also included the Sgeta people's disdain towards Roland.
Because of the land, the players' favorability towards Roland skyrocketed. Of course, they were unhappy with the Sgeta people.
Everyone was discussing what kind of gameplay would be released on this map, and whether or not they could go to Planet Sgeta and show these NPCs the power of "fists".
In the game, Vir and the others had already arrived at the palace of Planet Sgeta and had a friendly meeting with His Majesty Anta.
"The main reason for our visit to your country this time is to purchase a batch of raw materials and to lay the foundation for future cooperation."
Vir handed a list of raw materials and a proposal to His Majesty Anta. "The raw materials on the list, I hope you can prepare them for us as soon as possible."
His Majesty Anta browsed through the list, and finally put it down. He was a little troubled. "There's no problem with the raw materials, but the amount …"
He frowned. The amount of raw materials required by Roland was too large. Before the meeting, he had already decided that no matter what Roland requested, he would fulfill it.
But … the amount was too much.
Crown Prince Uta was also a member of the audience. He couldn't help but glance at the list. When he saw the large amount of raw materials, his heart started to bleed.
This was an exorbitant demand!
Although they had just helped Planet Sgeta defeat Xing Dao, wasn't it too much to ask for so many raw materials at once?
However, His Majesty Anta still gritted his teeth and said after some hesitation, "I'll tell my subordinates to prepare them for you as soon as possible!"
If it wasn't for Vir, their country might still be in poverty, and they might even have been expelled from GAL.
Now that Roland had displayed such a strong military force, Anta's thoughts had changed. At first, he wanted to repay their kindness, but now, he wanted to befriend them.
Since that was the case, he naturally needed to show some sincerity.
Crown Prince Uta's teeth hurt when he heard this. He finally couldn't help but say, "Father …"
His Majesty Anta interrupted him and said to Vir, "Princess Vir, please wait for a few more days. It will take some time to prepare such a large amount of materials."
Vail smiled. How could she not see that Crown Prince Wu Ta wanted to say something but hesitated? In addition to the words of the Brave Warriors, she could roughly understand the prince's mentality.
Since they sincerely wanted to establish diplomatic relations with the Skerta Empire, there was no reason to let them suffer losses.
After all, only a win-win situation could allow for a long-term cooperation.
Thus, she took out an anonymous card and placed it on the table. She said softly, "This is the deposit. I also want His Majesty Anta to believe in Roland's sincerity in seeking cooperation."
His Majesty Anta wanted to refuse, but Vir used clever words to persuade him. In the end, he understood that Roland didn't want to freeload. He had misunderstood everything.
And so, the pleasant atmosphere of the meeting continued.
After Vir left, Crown Prince Uta, who had a lot of things to say, finally opened his mouth. "It sounds nice, but can Roland afford so many rare minerals? Do you want to use food as payment? "
His Majesty Anta didn't say anything. He just let someone look at the amount in the anonymous card. After knowing the amount, he couldn't help but look at his eldest son and shook his head. "Maybe, he can afford it."
Crown Prince Uta didn't believe it. He also looked at the amount in the anonymous card. When he saw the long string of zeros, he couldn't help but widen his eyes.
"Is Roland going to rob money?"
He couldn't help but touch his face. He felt that his face was almost swollen today.
At this time, in the faraway Royal Palace of Roland.
Xu Sili immediately received good news from Vir. He was also looking forward to their return with the materials. When that time came, the fixed-point teleportation device would no longer be a dream.
Unfortunately, they couldn't make it in time for the celebration.
After a week of preparation, the previously mentioned ceremony to commemorate the victory of the Beast Tide was finally held on this day.
After the grand award ceremony, it was time to reveal the monument. A total of 100 players' game IDs were neatly engraved on the monument for future generations to worship.
After these two most important activities, the celebration had just begun.
This national celebration would last for three days.
That night, Xu Sili and Si Sheng left the palace after not seeing each other for a long time. They went to various bonfires in the Imperial City. Meanwhile, Thanos also found Xu Fengqing and asked him to fulfill his promise.
