After Xiao Ran entered the room, Lax and Stella also stopped playing. Stella once again threw herself at Xiao Ran and burrowed into Xiao Ran's arms. Lax also stood up and smiled at Xiao Ran.
After patting Stella who burrowed into his arms, Xiao Ran nodded to Lax and said, "Thank you for taking care of Stella, Lax."
Lax shook her head, looked at Stella gently and said, "It's okay, I'm also happy to play with Stella."
After hearing Lax's words, Xiao Ran just smiled and didn't say anything. He knew very well why Lax came to play with Stella. It wasn't because she was bored.
After Xiao Ran and Stella sat down, Lax also sat down. She looked at Xiao Ran and asked, "The battle is over, right? No one was injured, right?"
"Some people suffered some minor injuries. They'll recover in a few days. It's not a big problem." Xiao Ran shook his head and said, "But I really hope that they can get injured in the battle. This will also make them remember their injuries better. It's not a good thing to have a smooth journey."
Lax was silent after hearing Xiao Ran's words, but in the end, she just nodded gently and changed the topic, "After you came back, Captain Hullo told me that you also captured a captive. Is it an alien that looks exactly like a human?"
Speaking of this, Lax looked at Stella who was in a daze leaning on Xiao Ran and asked, "Are the aliens you met also like this?"
Xiao Ran shook his head and said, "Not exactly. There are many alien races. I've seen cat-eared girls, bunny-eared girls, and so on. There's also a race that has a very short lifespan. When a human is in their twenties, they are considered to be in their twilight years. Although they look very similar to humans, they have a special emotional organ on their heads. When they are happy or sad, their emotional organ will emit different lights."
"But most of the alien races I've seen have a similar appearance to us humans. Even if they're exactly the same, there's still a lot of them. Speaking of which, I have to admit that the universe is mysterious. Even if we live in different places and environments, the differences between us aren't that big. Maybe there really was a creator in the distant past."
"Really?" Lax crossed her arms and said with a longing look, "I really want to see that colorful world."
Xiao Ran was stunned when he heard Lax's words. He turned his head and looked at Lax who had a longing look on her face. He just laughed dryly and changed the topic.
After playing with Lax and Stella for a while, Lax felt a little tired and left Xiao Ran's room. Orr and Sting, who had gone somewhere, also came back not long after Lax left. After about two hours, Xiao Ran left the three children in the room and entered the conference room again.
This time, the purpose of entering the conference room was not to hold a combat meeting. Instead, it was to educate and criticize everyone who participated in the battle just now. At the same time, Xiao Ran also pointed out the problems and shortcomings that everyone had during the battle. All the pilots on the two battleships listened to every word Xiao Ran said quietly as if they were in a class.
Due to the sudden appearance of the extraterrestrial forces on Earth, the War and Death battleships, which were originally planning to return to space, were temporarily left behind on Earth to guard against the appearance of the extraterrestrial forces. They stayed on Earth for almost a week, but unfortunately, the SPT did not appear again. However, there were many large-scale locust attacks all over the world. The territories controlled by the United Federation, Aub, and ZAFT, as well as other neutral territories were greatly affected because of this.
The only thing Death and War could do was to send out two small teams to the nearest area to eliminate the locusts that suddenly appeared.
As for the captive, after Xiao Ran threw him to the people on War, he committed suicide not long after. They did not get any information from the captive at all. Even when facing a dead person, Xiao Ran could not communicate with him. He could only sigh at his carelessness. If he knew this would happen, Xiao Ran would have forcibly hypnotized the captive and tried to get as much information as possible from him about the Gurathes Army.
As for ZAFT, Xiao Ran specifically sent Falcon to inform Patrick to withdraw his forces. Before Patrick could make up his mind to act according to Xiao Ran's suggestion, a large-scale locust attack on Earth happened. Although there was no SPT this time, it still brought more or less trouble to ZAFT.
As the frequency of these locusts increased, Patrick finally made up his mind and ordered all the ZAFT troops on Earth to withdraw their forces. Due to the same reason, the Alliance had no time to take back the territory that the ZAFT troops had abandoned at this stage.
Some people speculated that the appearance of so many locusts was due to the actions of Xiao Ran's unknown troops, which led to the other party's revenge. At least, that was what the United Kingdom thought. Patrick thought so, and so did Ashar. Similarly, it also showed that the alien forces were definitely not here with good intentions.
ZAFT began to withdraw its forces and was only responsible for maintaining order in the area under its control. Although the Alliance had a lot of combat power, they were not strong enough. Therefore, they could only make the same choice as ZAFT. Aube's overall strength was weak, and it was not good for them to maintain order in their own territory. This situation lasted for a whole month.
This made things difficult for Xiao Ran's forces. Their main goal was to deal with the aliens and the Alliance. From the second week onwards, in addition to the main body of the Apocalypse, which was guarded by Falcon and two additional teams of Zeon from ZAFT, the other two battleships also landed on Earth under Xiao Ran's orders.
At the same time, the four affiliated battleships, including the War and Death, were also sent to different areas by Xiao Ran, especially near the neutral areas. For a month, Xiao Ran launched an attack almost every day, including Xiao Ran himself. However, Xiao Ran maintained a solo operation. After going to an area, he would eliminate the locusts that appeared there. He would either return or go to another place.
The existence of the Apocalypse Force was thus exposed. Although the name of the Apocalypse was not exposed, and the relationship between the Apocalypse and the Apocalypse was not exposed, with the increase in the number of attacks, the whole world also knew of the existence of this mysterious force that specialized in fighting against aliens. The Alliance even tried to contact the Apocalypse Force, hoping that the Apocalypse Force would be included under their command. Their purpose was nothing more than to solve the current problem and then deal with ZAFT. However, such a plan could only be dreamed of by the Alliance.
