Shadow of Deep Space

Chapter 456 Farewell

Chapter 456 Farewell
A few minutes later, Su Ming and others received a reply.

The Rain City Control Center required them to park the mechas in the parking area outside the Rain City, and mechas were not allowed to enter the city.

Soon, Su Ming and his team controlled the mecha and landed in the exclusive parking area outside the city.

"Wow, am I seeing right? So many advanced mechas?"

"There are two more pseudo-V-generation mechas?"

Some passengers who were parking their mechas were discussing this in surprise.

click!
The cockpit opened and Su Ming and others floated down.

At this time, a middle-aged woman with wavy hair, delicate dress and work clothes came over.

She looked at Su Ming and the others. They were all so young and their clothes were very tasteful. She could tell at a glance that they were noble gentlemen, so she said with a smile.

"Gentlemen, each docking space here costs 5000 federal coins a day. And please do not leave valuables in the mecha. We are not responsible if you lose anything."

"So expensive?"

Rhine and others were also a little surprised that the prices here were more expensive than in Starlight City.

“It’s always been this price.”

The female administrator replied in a very good manner.

"alright."

Rhine took out his wallet and paid the bill.

After collecting the money, the female administrator turned around and prepared to leave. However, she stopped and turned her head to look at Su Ming's mecha.

"Any questions?"

Su Ming looked at the female administrator and asked.

"This sun is sprayed so realistically. Where did you spray it? It looks so real."

The female manager asked as she looked at the sun spray-painted by the Lord of Shadows.

Rhine and the others all had strange expressions on their faces.

Su Ming coughed and followed the female administrator's instructions.

"Starlight City, just find someone to criticize for fun."

"It's okay to spray for fun, but don't spray so seriously, or you'll be invited to have tea."

The female administrator said to Su Ming.

"Okay, how do we get into the city?"

Su Ming asked politely.

"Go ahead. There's a taxi area by the lake. You can take a taxi into the city."

The female manager pointed Su Ming and the others in a direction and then left.

"Ankajia, Zhang Yi, the two of you follow me into the city. Rhine, you stay here and watch over the mecha."

Su Ming looked around, frowned slightly, and said to Rhine and the others.

"it is good!"

Rhine nodded in response.

Su Ming then took Ankajia and Zhang Yi and walked towards the lake.

Soon they arrived at the lake, and saw the warm sunshine shining on the lake, making the waves sparkle.

On the grass by the lake, there were handsome men and beautiful women everywhere, live streaming to the camera.

Some of them wore gentleman's suits, some wore JK suits, and some COS various beauties.

In addition, there are many areas cordoned off by the crew, where you can see some stars filming movies and TV series, with fill light balls and suspended photography balls floating in the air.

"Thank you for your hard work!"

“It’s such a great shot.”

Su Ming looked at the anchors, the stars filming, and the many tourists laughing and having fun, and his brows furrowed slightly.

"Boss, what's wrong with you?"

Ankajia noticed that Su Ming looked a little strange, so she asked in a low voice.

Su Ming spoke as he walked forward.

“So many anchors and celebrities?”

"Normal. The Rain City mainly develops the entertainment economy. Internet celebrities, film and television circles, tourism and other industries are their pillars."

Ankajia explained to Su Ming.

"Ah."

Su Ming didn't say much.

Soon they arrived at the taxi area, where taxis were parked one after another and there was a long queue in the waiting area.

Su Ming and the other two waited patiently for a while and got into a yellow taxi.

An unshaven-bearded middle-aged man in a grey shirt asked enthusiastically.

"Where are you going, gentlemen?"

"Go to No. 33 Sea Mist Street!"

Su Ming sat in the passenger seat, raised his hand and looked up Timmy's home address and said.

"okay!"

The uncle then stepped on the accelerator, drove out of the parking lot and headed towards the cross-lake bridge.

Su Ming looked at the scenery passing by outside the window and was deeply attracted.

To be honest, the Rain City is really the most beautiful and pleasing city he has ever seen. Not only is the environment good, there are really a lot of girls and handsome guys here, and each of them knows how to dress and look good.

Soon the taxi drove across the bridge. On the guardrails on both sides of the bridge, there was a virtual holographic advertisement every fifty meters, playing Diana's promotional video.

"The promise of the century, across the long river of time, we will meet in the end!"

The bright and charming Diana raised her soft and boneless hand, placed it on her red lips, and blew a kiss.

At this time, the uncle chatted with Su Ming very talkatively.

"The bridge we are on now is the Chaoyin Bridge, a very famous suspended bridge across the lake in Yuzhidu. It is 15 kilometers long."

"not bad."

Su Ming nodded slightly.

It wasn't long before the taxi entered the Rain City.

The buildings in the Rain Capital are not all full of modern technology, but are very artistic and distinctive.

"Did you see that giant bathhouse made entirely of wood? It's a very famous hot spring bathhouse in Rain City, and a must-visit spot."

The uncle introduced them to Su Ming and the others.

"pretty good."

Su Ming took a look from afar and found it to be very unique.

At this time, the uncle showed a meaningful smile and said to Su Ming and the others.

"Gentlemen, would you like to try our special dishes when you come to Yuzhidu?"

"Specials?"

Su Ming asked after being slightly startled.

“Is there any dish that Rain City is famous for?”

Ankajia and Zhang Yi were also confused.

"Of course, if we are second to none, no one dares to claim to be first! Nine out of ten boys who come to Rain City come here for this. If you are interested, I can introduce you to it. I guarantee you will be satisfied."

The uncle said with a smile.

After hearing what the uncle said, Su Ming and the other two were stunned at first, and then they all reacted with wonderful expressions.

"No, I have a partner."

Zhang Yi replied awkwardly.

"Oh, it doesn't matter if you have a partner. There's a saying that goes, if the red flag stays high at home, the colorful flags will flutter outside!"

The uncle persuaded with a wink.

When Su Ming heard this, the corner of his mouth twitched slightly. It seemed that Rain City was not only well-developed in the entertainment industry, but also in the sex industry.

However, Su Ming did not say anything. After all, everyone’s way of survival is different. You can dislike someone, but there is no need to slander them.

Then he asked curiously.

"Uncle, didn't Yuzhidu lose the battle not long ago? Didn't Lady Annabeth die in the battle? Isn't it inappropriate to have fun at this time?"

"Aiya, there was no defeat in Rain City, wasn't that a strategic retreat? As for Lady Annabeth, she was accidentally sacrificed while covering the retreat of the troops. Besides, the memorial service ended the day before yesterday, and the ban on entertainment was cancelled long ago. And even if it was during the ban on entertainment, it was just like that."

The uncle replied nonchalantly.

Su Ming was also startled when he heard this, and then he spoke.

"Strategic retreat?"

"Yeah, what's the problem?"

"Don't you guys go to the Star Forum?"

"Go on!"

The uncle replied naturally.

When Su Ming heard this, he immediately felt something was wrong. He raised his bracelet and opened the Qunxing Forum.

The interface that popped up shocked Su Ming.

The Stellar forums are filled with entertainment posts about Diana.

Only the third most popular post is about Miss Shiris.

Su Ming clicked on this entertainment post and took a look at the content.

"Bad news. Miss Shilis was on her way to the Federation on the interstellar cruise ship Moonlight when she was attacked by the mechanical tribe and was frightened. Therefore, she canceled her plan to tour the Federation."

There are hundreds of millions of comments under this post.

"What are those security guards and federal guards doing? They didn't protect Miss Shilis properly and let her get scared!"

"Are you a shit eater? I'm going to complain to them!"

"I originally wanted to witness the century PK between Miss Hillis and Miss Diana."

Su Ming closed the post and continued to scroll down. Almost all the posts were entertainment posts.

"Zhang Yi, don't the Rain City's Star Forum and Starlight City share information? Are they independent regional networks?"

"Shouldn't it? Normally they should be connected!"

Zhang Yi replied in surprise.

When Su Ming heard this, his expression changed, and he immediately raised his bracelet to try to search for the post about Annabeth's death in the battle.

The result was found as soon as he searched, and then he searched for other posts he had seen before, and finally found that they could all be found.

But these posts here are not popular at all. That is to say, the Qunxing forums in the three cities are interconnected, and the information is the same, but the layout is different. Those posts here can't be ranked at all and are pushed to the bottom.

Su Ming sighed slightly. It was not unfair that Rain City was defeated. With the atmosphere like this, how strong could the army be?

More than an hour later, the taxi arrived at Haiwu Street.

The taxi driver said to Su Ming.

"Sir has arrived"

"Thank you!"

"You're welcome. This is my business card. If you need anything, you can come to me anytime. I'll give you a 20% discount."

"Ok."

Su Ming took the business card, opened the car door and walked out.

They looked around and saw that both sides of the street were lined with two-and-a-half-story villas with small courtyards.

These houses are all built of stone and are very distinctive and full of a sense of age.

In fact, the people living here are more or less related to the Lord of Alishia.

"Number 30. Number 33, Boss, that one."

Zhang Yi pointed to a house not far ahead and said.

"Walk."

Su Ming took Zhang Yi to the gate of the yard and pressed the doorbell.

ding dong~
Clear sounds continued to ring out, but Su Ming and his friends waited for a long time and no one opened the door.

"Boss, it seems that no one is at home."

Ankaja scratched his head and said.

When Su Ming heard this, he raised his bracelet and prepared to call Timmy.

At this moment, a voice sounded from the side.

"Who are you looking for?"

Su Ming turned his head and saw an old man in black clothes walking towards him.

"Uncle, we are Timmy's friends, and we came here specifically to see her."

Su Ming replied politely.

"Oh, you're looking for Timmy! Then you came at the wrong time. She has already headed to the Fallen Leaf Military Base and is preparing to head to the Tidal Star Sea."

"What? She's leaving so soon?"

"Yes! But if you go look for her now, you should be able to see her in time."

The old man explained to Su Ming.

"Thank you, sir. Let's go back and drive the mecha!"

Su Ming and Zhang Yi hurried to the side of the street and hailed a taxi.

Soon they hailed a taxi.

Su Ming opened the car door swiftly and sat in the passenger seat.

The driver was a tough-looking girl with muscular arms. She looked at Su Ming and asked enthusiastically.

"Where are you going, handsome?"

"Go to the parking area outside the city."

Su Ming said simply.

"no problem."

The girl in front of me stepped on the accelerator and drove out of the city.

"Boss, why are Timmy and the others leaving so soon?"

Zhang Yi asked with some confusion.

"It should be that the situation in the Tidal Star Sea is not very good. Also, it is normal for Timmy and his team to set off now. Aren't Filion and his team going to set off as well? If I'm not mistaken, Timmy and his team should be rushing to reunite with the Thunder Pole."

Su Ming explained simply.

"I see."

Zhang Yi and Ankajia nodded.

Time passes little by little.

It didn't take long for the taxi to drive out of the city and onto the Chaoyin Bridge. However, when it was one-third of the way there, the speed began to slow down and then stopped.

"Why don't you leave?"

Su Ming looked at the girl in confusion.

"Handsome, there's a traffic jam ahead."

The girl stuck her head out of the window, took a look and said.

"Why is there a traffic jam? We were fine when we entered the city just now."

Su Ming asked with a frown on his face.

"What else could it be? Of course it was Diana's fanatical fans who blocked the way. How could I have forgotten about this?"

The girl patted her head and said.

"Diana? Where is her concert? Aren't we on our way out of town?"

"She was driving in the lake and would take a boat under the bridge later, so the fans there were crowded here to watch."

"How long will the blockage last?"

"I don't know. Normally, even if there is a traffic jam here, it only lasts for a short time. But with the situation today, it is normal for it to be blocked for several hours."

"A few hours is too long. Big sis, can you activate the hovercraft and fly over there?"

Su Ming asked the driver girl.

"No, handsome, I don't dare to fly. There is a no-fly zone over here now. Look at the many guards maintaining order over there, and there are also patrolling mechas in the sky. If you violate the rules, it's not just a matter of fines, I might even end up in a small dark room."

The driver girl shook her head and replied.

"Ankaja, pay the fare!"

After Su Ming finished speaking to Ankajia, he opened the car door and walked out.

At this time, many drivers and passengers who were stuck here also got out of their cars.

Looking ahead, they could see many fanatical fans lying on the edge of the bridge, holding various cheering sticks and light boards and waving them excitedly.

When Su Ming saw this, he also frowned.

At this time, Ankajia and Zhang Yi got out of the car after paying the money. They looked at the situation and asked Su Ming.

"Boss, what should we do now? The bridge is so long, it would be difficult for us to run across it. What if we are too late?"

Su Ming's expression froze, and he raised his bracelet to dial Rhine's number.

Dudu~
A few seconds later the call was connected and Rhine's voice rang from the bracelet.

"Boss, what's wrong?"

"Rhine, we are stuck on the Chaoyin Bridge. I will send you the location. You drive the mecha and bring our mecha over."

"no problem."

Rhine replied without hesitation and then hung up the call.

Ankajia and Zhang Yi immediately gave Su Ming a thumbs up and said with a smile, "The boss is still so majestic and domineering."

"okay."

Su Ming also walked to the bridge feeling a little annoyed.

At this time, the fans gathered on the bridge burst into excited cheers.

Su Ming looked towards the lake in the distance and saw a classical and elegant wooden flower boat slowly approaching, decorated with various veils and flowers.

Diana, wearing a floor-length blue lace palace dress and a wreath of fresh flowers on her head, stood at the bow of the ship like a fairy.

Countless reporters pressed the shutter button desperately.

Click!

Various flashing lights came on.

"Diana!"

Countless fans shouted enthusiastically.

Su Ming looked at Diana on the flower boat with an expressionless face.

"Boss, I heard that she is competing with Miss Shilis for the title of the number one universe star. It's a pity that Shilis canceled her tour, otherwise today would be even more lively."

Zhang Yi came up to Su Ming and said with a smile

"She can't compete with Shirley, and Shirley doesn't need to compete with her. They pursue different things."

Su Ming replied calmly.

"Too."

Zhang Yi nodded and replied.

At this moment, a huge roar suddenly came from the sky, and then the pseudo V-generation mecha · Kuangying brought a number of fourth-generation mechas · Lei Yu into the restricted air zone and whizzed past the top of the flower boat.

In an instant, the entire flower boat was affected by the air flow, and countless petals bloomed and floated towards the blue sky.

Diana was a little frightened for a moment and her body leaned to the side. Fortunately, the worker next to her quickly supported her.

At this time, Diana's agent picked up the communicator and yelled angrily at the captain of the guard in charge.

"Captain Alidu, what the hell are you doing? Didn't we clear the restricted area? How did you let an insignificant mecha in?"

"I can't do anything about it. Didn't you see what kind of mechas were breaking in? The lowest ones were fourth-generation mechas? You want us second-generation mechas to drive them away? Did you get kicked in the head by a donkey?"

Alidu replied unhappily.

"So you're just going to leave it alone?"

"It's not that we don't care, but we can't."

"you"

Diana's agent was so angry that his face turned green.

At this time, Diana came back to her senses, raised her head and looked at the mechas flying by, only to see those mechas flying towards the bridge.

Diana's fans on the bridge were also cursing.

"Whose mecha!?"

"You scared my goddess. I want to complain!"

"Yes, report them!"

The people who were forced to get off the bus were all amazed at the mecha flying over.

"Pseudo V-generation mecha, fourth-generation mecha!"

At this time, Rhine and his men carried the Shadow Lord, Blood Killer and Thunder Mecha to the edge of the bridge.

Click!

The cockpits of three mechas opened.

"go!"

Su Ming and Zhang Yi climbed onto the bridge and jumped into the cockpit neatly.

"Wow, look at that fake V-generation mecha, there are actually two suns painted on it!"

"You're just spraying nonsense, right? How can a pseudo-V-generation mecha spray the sun?"

"That's not necessarily true. Didn't you see that there's one red and one black sprayed on it?"

"Wait, could this guy be General Su Ming?"

"It should be him."

"No, how can he drive a pseudo V-generation mecha?"

"What's so strange about driving a pseudo-V-generation mecha? This might be someone's backup machine."

At this time, a reporter rushed over, excitedly taking pictures of the pseudo V-generation mecha Shadow Lord and shouting excitedly.

"It turned out to be General Su Ming."

"Quick shot, this will be the headline! It will definitely be on the headlines of the City of Stars."

At this time, Su Ming controlled the pseudo V-generation mecha, Lord of Shadows, to close the cockpit, and flew straight into the sky with Rhine and others.

Diana stood at the bow, looking at Su Ming and the others flying away, her eyes flickering.

Half an hour later.

Su Ming took Rhine and others and quickly headed to the Luoye Military Base.

"Boss, look ahead."

Rhine reminded Su Ming.

苏铭抬起头眺望向远处，只见赤红的大地上，停放着1艘5级母舰，2艘5级战列舰，7艘4级战列舰和2艘5级运输船。

Next to these ships lies a huge Dorag Sphere, where the Fallen Leaf Base is located.

"Ah."

Su Ming immediately sent a communication request to the Fallen Leaf Base.

Soon the communication was connected, and a clear female voice sounded.

"Hello, I'm Lieutenant Shu Yue from the Fallen Leaf Base."

"Hello, I am Admiral Su Ming of the Thirteenth Legion!"

Su Ming said calmly.

"Hello, sir."

Shu Yue was also surprised and replied immediately.

"We're here to see Colonel Timmy."

"Sir, Commander Timmy is taking part in the oath-taking speech before the battle. You can only park the mecha beside him and wait for the speech to end."

"Okay, please help us plan a parking space."

Su Ming responded very politely.

"Yes!"

Shu Yue immediately started planning the route.

Su Ming and others flew towards the Dorag Ball along the virtual route.

The entire fallen leaf base consists of two parts, one is a giant base building shaped like a leaf, and the other is a metal-hardened open space area.

At this time, non-commissioned officers in military uniforms stood in an orderly manner in the open space.

Timmy, Marina and others stood in the front row, and everyone looked very serious.

An old woman wearing a lieutenant general's uniform, with pale hair, sharp eyes, and dashing manners, gave a serious lecture to everyone.

"We are heading to the Tidal Sea this time not only to avenge Lady Annabeth, but also to shoulder the responsibility of the defeated Ninth Legion. We, the Rain City, are almost losing face in the Federation, and we can't act like ostriches anymore!"

"Yes, General Greyly!"

Timmy and the others shouted in unison.

"And this trip to the Tidal Star Sea is full of difficulties, and we will face severe challenges."

Gray continued her speech.

At this time, a roar was heard from the sky. Su Ming, driving the pseudo V-generation mecha Shadow Lord, descended from the sky with Rhine and others and landed on the parking space next to him.

Marina and the others noticed the falling Shadow Lord, and all of them showed surprised expressions. However, because General Grey was giving a lecture, they did not dare to say anything.

When Timmy saw the Lord of Shadows falling, his straight body trembled slightly, and his heart was rising and falling like the sea.

She didn't expect Su Ming to come in person.

At this time, in the Shadow Lord's cab, Su Ming looked at Timmy who was receiving pre-war training and waited patiently.

Although his military rank was higher than that of the general who was giving the speech, he had no intention of stepping forward to disrupt the situation. This was basic courtesy.

Lieutenant General Greyli naturally noticed the falling mecha, and then quickened his pace and spoke.

"Anyway, remember what I said. The future of Rain City is in your hands. You can only succeed, not fail!"

"Yes!"

Timmy and the others responded in unison.

"Okay, that's the end of the lecture, everyone dismiss."

Graylee then announced.

As Grayli finished her words, many female officers present began to discuss.

"Those eleven mechas are so advanced, and there are actually two pseudo-V generation mechas among them. Who invited the help? So awesome?"

"I don't know. Could it be that Marina invited him here?"

"That shouldn't be the case. Hasn't she already invited Vice Admiral Harbert?"

Just when everyone was talking about it.

When Su Ming saw that Timmy and the others had finished their lecture, he opened the cockpit and floated down.

Seeing this, Rhine and others followed.

Su Ming, along with Rhine and the others, walked straight towards Timmy and the others.

"Wow, the man leading the group is so handsome. Who is he?"

"I don't know, but it looks familiar."

At this time, Lieutenant General Grey was also surprised, and she saluted Su Ming who was walking towards her.

"Commander Su Ming, why are you here?"

Marina and others were all stunned. Although they didn't pay much attention to Su Ming, they had heard of him to some extent.

He is the Federation's brightest new star, the youngest admiral in history, and a candidate for general.

"Excuse me, I'm here to look for Timmy, is that convenient?"

Su Ming said politely.

"convenient."

Graylee responded immediately.

Timmy then stepped forward and spoke with moist eyes.

"Commander Su Ming."

"Well, Timmy, can you spare me a moment so we can go over there and talk?"

Su Ming said softly.

"Ah."

Timmy nodded slightly and followed Su Ming towards the open space in the distance.

Marina clenched her fists as she watched this scene, an expression of jealousy and displeasure on her face.

At this time, Su Ming and Timmy gradually moved away from the crowd, and Timmy said with his head down.

"Commander Su Ming, why are you here?"

"Of course I came to see you. Are you okay?"

Su Ming replied casually.

"pretty good."

"Alas, the dead are gone, and the living cannot continue to live in pain. This is not what your grandma wants to see."

"Yes, I know."

Timmy bit his lip lightly and replied with red eyes.

"Timmy, can you tell me why you quit? Are you in any trouble? If you need help, feel free to come to me."

Su Ming asked with concern.

"Commander Su Ming, I am not in trouble. This is my decision. My father died in battle when I was very young. My frail mother raised me alone. Life was very difficult until that year when my mother took me back to my grandmother's house."

Timmy recalled with red eyes and a choked voice.

Thirty years ago.

In the huge courtyard.

A number of noble ladies, dressed in gorgeous clothes and very exquisitely made up, were chatting and laughing under the banyan tree.

Many children were chasing and playing happily.

At this time, a pale-skinned woman wearing an old-fashioned white dress with her hair tied up walked in, holding the hand of a five-year-old girl with short pink hair and a timid look.

A noble lady along the way saw this and commented on it with laughter.

"Isn't that Tira? Why is she back?"

"Didn't she insist on marrying that good-for-nothing man? How come she has the nerve to come back now?"

"I heard that man died, and now I can't live alone with this burden."

"That little girl is that man's child. She looks like a disaster."

"I also feel that way."

Tierra ignored everyone's comments and walked into the hall with Timmy.

Everyone in the hall looked at Tira, and they all sneered and made sarcastic comments.

"Isn't this Tira?"

"Who was it that said that I would never set foot in the house again?"

At this time, Annabeth walked towards Teela and Timmy with a serious expression.

When everyone saw Annabeth walking over, their smiles became even brighter, as if they were enjoying a good show.

At this time, Timmy looked at Annabeth who was walking towards him, and was also very scared. He timidly grabbed his mother's sleeve and shrank behind him.

At this time Annabeth walked up to Timmy, slowly squatted down and raised her hand.

Timmy closed his eyes in fear.

The next second, Timmy felt a pair of gentle hands touching her little head, and she slowly opened her eyes.

Annabeth just smiled kindly at her.

Timmy was stunned.

Annabeth gently took Timmy's hand and walked towards the center of the hall under everyone's gaze.

"That was the first time I met my grandma. I still remember her kind smile. Later, my mother also passed away. From then on, I stayed at my grandma's house. She took me to the forest to catch butterflies, took me to watch fireworks, and took me to make snowmen."

As Timmy finished speaking, tears kept rolling down his cheeks.

Su Ming silently took out a tissue and handed it to Timmy.

Timmy took the tissue, took a deep breath, adjusted his mood and spoke to Su Ming.

"Now that my grandma has died and the Ninth Legion has been defeated, I cannot bear to see her hard work go to waste. Therefore, I can only return to the Ninth Legion and do my best to revive it and avenge my dead grandma!"

When Su Ming heard this, he remained silent.

Timmy looked at the silent Su Ming and continued speaking guiltily.

"I'm sorry, Commander Su Ming. You trusted me so much and nurtured me so much, but I left so suddenly."

"It's okay, I understand how you feel. This is not your problem."

Su Ming shook his head and replied.

At this time, a soldier ran over and said to Timmy respectfully.

"Captain Timmy, it's time to board the ship and set off."

After hearing this, Timmy wiped away his tears and said to Su Ming.

"Sorry! Commander Su Ming, I have to leave."

"Well, go ahead and be safe."

Su Ming nodded and instructed.

"Thank you, Commander Su Ming."
