A deathly silence.
The intense flames on the projection gradually cooled down, leaving a large number of remains on the space battlefield again.
There were Zerg corpses among them.
There was also the broken steel body of the smart mech.
In the distance, there were also two Blade No. 1 mechas that were shuttling back and forth on the battlefield, carefully searching.
After the battle ended, Lu Li and Chen Qingyun immediately led the remaining Mechs to where the first Zerg ship had exploded.
They wanted to find their comrades 'bodies. Even if there were only broken limbs left, they had to find them all bit by bit!
Time slowly passed.
The atmosphere became heavier and heavier.
Qiao Nanyan and Sister Zhou didn't say anything. Their eyes were red as they watched the screen continue to play.
There was nothing else.
Lu Li and the others searched for a long time, but they could not find anything left by Lin Xiao.
The body was gone.
Even the Blade No. 1 mecha he was piloting was not left with a single piece of wreckage.
The moment Lin Xiao ignited his mecha and rushed towards the bug ship, the terrifying energy wiped everything away.
There was nothing left in that starry sky.
“......”
Qiao Nanyan felt as if her chest was blocked by a large stone. Her eyes were red and the corners of her eyes couldn't help but become moist. Her heart was extremely heavy.
The 3D projection screen began to switch.
After the battle, Lu Li and Lin Xiao returned to the Southern Heavenly Gate base. The entire Watchmen team said goodbye to Lin Xiao with heavy hearts and packed up his belongings.
In the cabin, Lu Li was sitting by the window, looking in a direction, lost in thought.
Outside was the pitch-black and cold universe.
That was the place where Lin Xiao had sacrificed himself, and further away, through the dark red star, was the wormhole that connected to the solar system, in the direction of home.
He gently caressed a small nameplate made of special metal in his hand. On it was engraved a starry wall surrounding the entire nameplate, and in the middle was the word 'watch' engraved in a special font.
In the middle of the nameplate, there were two words engraved: Lin Xiao.
This was a brand exclusive to Lin Xiao.
Fighting in the deep space of the universe, once one died in battle, most of the time, there might not be a corpse left behind, leaving nothing behind.
Therefore, this name tag was the only thing Lin Xiao left behind.
Lu Li caressed the name tag and looked at the battlefield in the sky. His eyes were filled with pain.
"Go home, big banyan tree."
Then, there was silence.
His originally tall and straight body was now slightly hunched. He leaned against the window and sat there for a long, long time.
Outside the cabin, the other members of the Watchmen sat together in silence.
On the long table in the middle, some simple clothes were placed there.
It was the only memory of Lin Xiao that the base could find.
Everyone lowered their heads, their expressions heavy.
Until the 3D projection disappeared.
The first volume of the Southern Heavenly Gate Fortress Defense Logbook finished playing and the screen froze on Lu Li.
The dark living room gradually lit up.
Qiao Nanyan and Sister Zhou were still immersed in the scene just now, unable to extricate themselves. Their makeup was still smeared from crying, and their expressions were equally heavy and dull.
"Lu Li…He must have suffered more than anyone else!”
Qiao Nanyan muttered to herself.
On the battlefield, he was the commander.
In the Southern Heavenly Gate Base, he was the leader of the entire base and the core of the Southern Heavenly Gate Plan!
At the beginning, Qiao Nanyan had already roughly learned about the chief engineer through the logs. Lin Xiao and Chen Qingyun had indeed called him " Chief Engineer Lu ", so it should be true.
Thinking back to the scene just now, the figure that should have been heroic and tall, full of spirit, seemed to be a little hunched like an old man, sitting by the window in a daze.
He had agreed to Lin Xiao's decision to die.
It was for the victory of the entire battlefield, for the victory of the Southern Heavenly Gate Base, and for the sake of guarding the gate to the Blue Planet. At that time, he... have no choice
But they were partners!
To personally send his comrades to their deaths, how difficult that choice would be, and how painful his heart would be, this was simply unimaginable to ordinary people.
Sister Zhou's heart was also extremely heavy. To think that someone would die in the first battle…
She couldn't imagine how tragic the future would be.
This log made Sister Zhou think a lot, especially the information about Lu Li.
A thought suddenly flashed through her mind.
Could this Chief Engineer Lu be a breakthrough?
If they could find out his identity, they would definitely be able to find out more about the truth of 30 years ago.
"Nan Yan, have you looked for Lu Li's information?”
She asked Qiao Nanyan, her eyes shining.
Qiao Nanyan was still immersed in her emotions. When she turned around, her expression was still a little dull.
"What?"
"Information, Lu Li's information!" Sister Zhou explained,
"Lu Li is so young, but he has already become a Chief Engineer. Such a genius can't be unknown. Even when he was studying, he must have been a god-like figure."
Qiao Nanyan's eyes lit up when she heard this.
At this moment, she had already reacted.
"You mean to find Lu Li? Perhaps he would find some related clues?”
" That's right, this Chief Engineer Lu is definitely a core figure. If we can find his information, we can definitely dig out more truth about the incident 30 years ago. I have a feeling that he won't be difficult to find."
Sister Zhou's eyes lit up.
Such a talented and outstanding person would be a dazzling sun wherever he went. He was an existence that everyone looked up to. As long as they found the school he used to study at, they would definitely be able to dig out more information about his identity.
As for how to find a school, such an outstanding person would definitely be written into the school history and his photo would be placed on the celebrity wall!
Sister Zhou felt that as long as she put in some effort, she would definitely be able to find it.
Qiao Nanyan thought about it carefully, and her eyes lit up. She agreed with Sister Zhou.
"This method should work!"
"I only searched for this name on the internet before and didn't find any useful information. However, the identity of such a person should be kept confidential."
"If you go through middle school or high school to find this person, there shouldn't be a problem.”
The two of them quickly reached an agreement.
"Leave this matter to me!"
Sister Zhou took the initiative to take on this mission.
