Chapter 181 

This was difficult for Lu Chen to accept, and the viewers on the livestream were equally unwilling to accept this cruel fact.

The difference is that Lu Chen was not willing to accept this fact because it was beyond his knowledge, while the viewers on the livestream were worried about the two bosses.

Viewer 1: Why? Why? Why? Why is this real? How can there be a real mother zerg on this map? I can't believe it!

Viewer 2: What the hell is going on with the military and the competition organizers? How can such a dangerous map be used in a competition? What the hell were they thinking?

Viewer 3: Run, you two! Run as far as you can and stay safe no matter what! Viewer 4: I'm afraid you don't know how far away the mother zerg’s attack range is, do you? If this is a real mother zerg, no matter how fast they run, they will not be able to escape its attack range.

Viewer 5: I just hope the scan was wrong and it's not a real mother zerg!

..........

However, no matter how much they didn't want to believe or how much they worried, the horrible truth was right in front of them, and no one could change it.

Lu Chen soon realized how dangerous his current situation was after his initial disbelief. He thought about what he had just done, and a cold sweat of fear and dread broke out over his body.

If his attack had really hit the mother... the consequences were unimaginable!

The mother zerg itself is indeed very fragile, unable to withstand even the most common mecha attacks.

However, it would still have enough time to launch a mental attack, which meant that the person who attacked the mother zerg would have no hope of survival.

Lu Chen was immediately glad that his attack did not land on the mother zerg, otherwise he would have been a lifeless corpse by now.

However, such happiness did not last long. Just because he did not hit the mother zerg did not mean that it would not strike back.

It could launch an attack at any time as long as It felt a threat from its surroundings. Meaning that he was in danger of being killed by the mother zerg at any time.

Lu Chen was sweating so much that he wet his suit completely.

Not far away, the atmosphere in the other mecha was also stagnant.

Cheng Yi felt regretful. If he had known that the zergs on this map were real, he would not have taken such a risk out of curiosity and speculation.

Now not only was he in danger, but he had also made his little one accompany him through this ordeal. Just thinking about it made Cheng Yi feel anxious and regretful.

The only thing he could now do was to analyze the situation and try to come up with a comprehensive plan to keep his little one out of harm's way.

But they were not facing a few zergs. There was a mother zerg and a swarm of other zergs. Even Cheng Yi was at a loss as to what to do.

An Yan was still a little confused after the alarm: "So this is a real mother bug, not one simulated by humans?"

Cheng Yi nodded with a serious expression. Although he knew it was useless to think about it at this time, he couldn't help but think about a question.

What happened for the real mother zerg and such a large number of zergs to appear on this map? It could not have been a coincidence.

The males are very active as the main fighting force and have even approached human-populated planets on several occasions in an attempt to take over. But why would the mother zerg appear here?

Although they were a long way from the Central Star, this planet was under human control since it is an area used as a military simulation map.

They had time to think about this as there was nothing they could do about their current situation. They could only wait passively.

Cheng Yi didn’t want to pass on his negative feelings to his little one, but it was still difficult to hide all his emotions.

An Yan only glanced at Cheng Yi and noticed the change in his emotions: "Senior, you seem very anxious. Is it because of this mother zerg? "

Cheng Yi's fingertips gently crossed An Yan's cheek, and there was a strong sense of remorse and regret in his eyes, "I shouldn't have let you risk your life with me. I'm sorry."

An Yan smoothly grabbed Cheng Yi's hand and smiled, "Don't say sorry to me. We don't need to have such words between us. And we take risks together, not you taking risks alone. "

An Yan's understanding made Cheng Yi feel even more remorseful.

An Yan squeezed Cheng Yi's finger and continued with a smile, "And you really don't need to worry so much. My intuition tells me that we will be fine this time."

Regardless of whether An Yan’s words were simply a comfort or not, Cheng Yi felt very warm at hearing them. His eyes slightly relaxed and he said softly, "Yan Yan must be right. We will definitely be fine."

A bright smile appeared on An Yan's face, "Of course I'm right. Haven't you always had faith in me? This time is no exception. "

Cheng Yi moved closer to An Yan and gently kissed the tip of his nose. " Yan Yan is right."

While An Yan was softly comforting Cheng Yi, the livestream was already boiling over.

Viewer 1: Although the relationship between the two bosses is really touching, I really don't want to eat this bowl of dog food now. I just hope they can leave this map safely!

Viewer 2: Which idiots did the final inspection of this map? If you like mother zergs so much, then go confront them yourself! Why would you put innocent contestants in such danger? What the hell is this about?

Viewer 3: I'm so worried now. Will the two bosses be alright? Wuu wuuu! 

Viewer 4: Although I'm panicking, I'm still willing to trust Cheng Yi's words. And what An Yan said is right! They will definitely be fine!

Viewer 5: I ...... don't want to affect your optimism, but I'm really crying my eyes out. Why did this happen?

........

At the same time, the scene from the competition had been transferred to the senior conference room at the military headquarters.

Not to mention that this map was authorized by the military. Even if the military had nothing to do with the competition, they would still have convened a high-level meeting to discuss strategies the moment they got information about the mother zerg.

It was not the time to investigate since the incident had already happened and the situation was urgent. Therefore, the senior military officials went straight to the matter immediately after the meeting began.

A member of the military first reported the situation on the ground: "The military has sent its personnel to rescue the participants and staff near the planet, and they are now retreating in an orderly manner. The problem lies in the contestants who are still on the surface of the planet. "

The situation on the surface of the planet was shown on the huge electronic screen in the conference room.

The middle-aged man sitting at the bottom left of the screen said in a deep voice: "Why haven’t these three evacuated since they already know that there is a real mother zerg on this planet?"

The young man beside him glanced across the screen and said, "If I remember correctly, one of these three contestants is the son of General Lu, right?"

The face of the middle-aged man called General Lu became even more ugly as he ignored the comment. He turned to the middle-aged man who had spoken first, "I don't think there's any problem with the way they are handling the situation. The number of times humans have faced the mother zerg is not large, so there are few conclusions about the mother zerg. Acting rashly without knowing the enemy may get them into more trouble than they already are. "

"The spiritual attack of the mother zerg can cover the entire planet. Where can these two mechas go even if they want to run?"

It would be better to stay where they were and wait for help than to rush into action.

The problem was that even if the military sent personnel to rescue them, they may not be able to handle the mother zerg. It would be hard to say whether they would save the three or be killed.

The young man's eyes flashed with annoyance when he saw that General Lu was not paying attention, and then he said, "It is necessary to announce the dispatch of help, but the situation is urgent. I think doing nothing may further worsen their situation.

As his son was in the presence of the mother zerg, it was impossible for General Lu to judge the situation from a completely objective point of view, as he was not in the same frame of mind as the other people present.

He looked calm, but he was actually very worried, and his tone was a bit annoyed: "What do you think they can do now? Go straight up and destroy the mother zerg?"

The young man smiled and hooked his lips: "I am only discussing the issue objectively. If General Lu has any anger, don't take it out on me, but of course, I can understand General Lu's feelings at this time. After all, he is your only son. "

General Lu was about to say something in return when he heard another lieutenant general sitting in the centre of the room say, "This is not the time to argue about this. The Ministry has already sent rescue personnel to the scene. We should wait patiently. "

General Lu snorted coldly. These three were not involved in the incident, so of course they could just sit back and watch without concern.

However, these disputes did not help to resolve the matter, so Lieutenant General Lu did not say anything more.

The young man paused for a moment and then said, "Do we need to contact the Academy's mecha competition and cut off the live broadcast?"
