Interstellar Number One Farmer: I Only Want To Farm!

Chapter 609 - 184: Abnormality (3)

Facing a chatty friend, Wu Qingqing resumed her chatterbox nature."Alright, what are your names, and where are you from?"

"Oh, oh, oh, no wonder, you have an accent from there, it sounds quite distinctive."

"Really? I’ve also been to an Insect Man Nest, though it must not be as massive as the one you’ve seen. The danger I encountered was on Huangyang Star; we can exchange experiences more..."

The audience watching the livestream was stunned, was this something I could hear?

"Qingqing has been to an Insect Man Nest?"

"I really want to keep listening."

"Listening to her brag? Do you believe her?"

"A friend of mine, who retired, used to claim he entered an Insect Man Nest, but all he did was circle around outside until the bosses cleaned it up, then went in to tidy up the aftermath."

Then a soldier asked Wu Qingqing if she had ever fought an Insect Man Warrior, "I have, back then I couldn’t even struggle, my master saved my miserable life."

"Pfft, who refers to themselves as a ’dog’?"

"I had no choice but to hide and survive; even dealing with Greed was challenging. Don’t let our fierce appearance fool you; I’ve been through thousands of life-and-death experiences."

"How old are you again."

"You don’t understand, our master is very strict with us. Our training can only be described as being reborn through death."

Words couldn’t express her hardships. When dealing with others, Vegetable Farmers faced everything with a positive attitude, rarely mentioning the sacrifices behind it.

The audience sensed the bitterness in her words.

Wu Qingqing reflected on the past, the training was indeed tough, so tough that she would sometimes cry inexplicably in the middle of the night.

She wouldn’t even realize it until she found her pillow wet in the morning.

The body’s resistance was truly honest; the mind merely forced it to move.

"I believe in Qingqing."

"Emerging from so many competitions is already remarkable, that reckless one is courting death, how good it would be if everyone could just get along."

"Exactly, standing out is already half the victory, stepping over a threshold many could never cross in a lifetime."

...

Hu Ping had already set up the temporary energy points and fully opened the sky dome, then connected the lights, making the training ground bright.

Mecha Masters continuously arrived from outside.

Seeing the chaotic scene in the training ground, they were momentarily speechless.

It was full of Insect Man corpses, floating mid-air, some had crashed into the walls, bouncing off and drifting away.

They could only clean up the bodies while planning the next attack.

The cowardly Insect Soldiers were still coming from all sides. After clearing away the scales, the Mecha Masters finally had their hands free to deal with the cowardly Insect Soldiers.

Establishing a temporary energy point meant the Mecha Masters could get timely supplies; they just needed to send someone to guard the entrance of the temporary point, and the cowardly Insect Soldiers didn’t pose much of a threat.

"This number is strangely high," Hu Ping mentioned more than once.

One task after another was completed, and on the map, many locations on the Mechanical Planet were marked green, indicating they had been cleared and captured.

Admiral Bai and his AI were searching for the mother body while on camera,

and the team started to see casualties.

Not like Wu Qingqing’s previous state of uncertainty, but definite sacrifices, with bodies being brought back to the main ship for cremation.

The deceased were packed in body bags, and the viewers of the livestream no longer watched with a thrill, some felt pity.

A total of over ten people, with no hope of rescue, were truly gone.

"Isn’t Admiral Bai the War God who inherited Admiral Bai’s will? How come there are sacrifices, why doesn’t he join the battle personally?"

"Why not send more troops in? The Insect Men’s swarm tactics, doesn’t Admiral Bai also have millions?"

"There are so many armchair experts online, this is war, even movies need to send people to their deaths to win; moreover, actual sacrifices have been minimal. Have you played the Extraordinary Island game? Have you played the realistic level of Extraordinary Island? If not, go play it first. If you can ensure zero sacrifices, you can have the commander’s position."

Admiral Bai knew the livestream would certainly draw controversy, and his reputation might suffer, but so what.

Life has its ups and downs; those who walk a too smooth path are doomed to falter along the way.

The position of admiral was something he was determined to achieve.

Anyway, nobody above was stepping down yet, he had time to strive.

Suddenly, he stood up, something was wrong, the ratio of cowardly Insect Soldiers to Greed wasn’t right.

He frowned, the tear troughs seemed even deeper in the shadows

Deeply pondering the real cause, whether it was to delay or if there was simply no Insect Mother here at all.

...

On Blue Star, the remaining contestants could roam freely, and most were also watching today’s match livestream.

A group of young people were on their way to the space station in an expensive hover car.
