Chapter 71 Something is wrong

There was anger in Jaina's eyes, but after trying hard to suppress it, her expression became very calm. "I don't dare to take such an opportunity."

"Okay, start the mission, we'll be gone soon."

The mutant big-billed ducks had all run away after being hunted by Shen Yao and his team, and the scene was filled with a strong smell of blood. If they didn't hurry, the smell of blood would easily attract other strange beasts.

Here, Su Jiu and his companions walked away for a distance and arrived at a valley, where they called out to everyone.

"Let's find a water source to wash the mecha and get rid of the blood on it."

The cautious habits she developed in the last days made her pay more attention to these tiny details.

"It's getting dark, and we need to find a place to stay. If we smell blood, it will easily attract strange beasts."

Shen Yao nodded, "That's how it should be."

The others had no objections.

Although I have never lived in a forest like this before, I had checked some guides before coming here, and I agree with Su Jiu's suggestion.

Su Jiu took out six bottles of medicine from the space button and distributed them to Shen Yao and the others through the delivery channel.

"This is a cleaning agent. It removes odors and also maintains the mecha."

She had noticed something strange when Su Rui attacked before.

Prescribing medicine in front of a pharmacist is simply like showing off one's knowledge in front of an amateur.

Not wanting to expose the potion's strength for the time being, Su Jiu did not explain the reason.

A few of them didn't ask anything. After checking the map, Shen Yao pointed out a route. "There is water here, and there are fewer dangerous mutant creatures around."

After a whole day of observation, she determined that the surrounding environment was not much different from before, which invisibly brought them a lot of convenience.

Su Jiu glanced at the live broadcast ball floating in the air. It was a pity. With this thing around, there might not be many chances to cause trouble for Su Rui.

"I won't let her bully you again." Mu Wanqing came over from behind and said these inexplicable words as if inadvertently when she passed by Su Jiu.

Looking at Mu Wanqing who was walking forward first, Su Jiu understood what she meant without giving it much thought.

Will she not let Su Rui bully her again?
What is the plan for this?
Perhaps it was the blood connection with this body that made her feel closer to Mu Wanqing.

I took another look at the live broadcast. It would be very interesting if Mu Wanqing's scar was suddenly exposed in front of everyone.

It may cause the people behind the scenes to take action.

This matter still requires Mu Wanqing's consent.

"Jiujiu, what's wrong?"

Xiong Ze is responsible for exploring the way ahead, and Xiong Ying is responsible for covering the rear. Both of them are earth-type and are quite powerful.

Seeing Su Jiu standing there in a daze watching the live broadcast, Xiong Ying asked with some confusion.

"Yingying, under what circumstances would the live broadcast be suddenly interrupted?"

In the mecha control room, Su Jiu showed a vicious smile. She really wanted to see how the good mother of this body would react when she knew the truth.

Xiong Ying thought for a moment and said, "This should not be interrupted unless there is a major accident."

"In fact, empire-wide live broadcasts like this are controlled by the main brain, so interruptions are almost impossible."

Su Jiu felt a little sorry, but he was not discouraged.

Her intuition was very accurate, and she vaguely felt that something unusual would happen in this assessment.

Following Xiong Ying, the two walked forward while chatting, and Mu Wanqing walked in front slowly.

Xiong Ying suddenly sighed and said to Su Jiu: "Wanqing looks a little cold, but she is really good."

Not counting the time she defended Su Jiu today, her subtle actions were heartwarming. "Jiujiu, have you noticed that although Wan Qing was walking in front, she was always helping us observe the situation behind us?"

Although there are people left behind in a team, it is natural for some people to walk in front, while some people can always observe the movements and discover the situation immediately if anything happens to the people behind.

"That's true." Su Jiu was more sensitive. She could feel that Mu Wanqing was a little worried about her.

He walked forward with a smile, unconsciously speeding up.

Jiang Liu was not far from them. After they smeared the medicine given by Su Jiu on each other's mechas, they went into the water and swam a few laps. The remaining blood on the mechas was washed away in an instant.

There are many fish and shrimps under the wide river, and the catcher given by Shen Yao happens to have a net in it. Other mechas may not have a launch device connected, but the Aurora Armor has one.

He linked the trap to the Aurora and fired a shot at the school of fish.

Although the capture net encountered some obstruction in the water, the impact was not significant.

The net expands or contracts according to the size of the prey. When the net is cast, many fish and shrimps are caught.

Su Jiu's eyes lit up, and he controlled Aurora to happily pull the net towards the shore.

Foodies seem to have a sense of telepathy when they spend a long time together. When they saw the clean and glowing Aurora Armor dragging a net of fish and shrimp ashore, Shen Yao and the others instantly understood what Su Jiu wanted to do.

"Come on, Jiujiu, let's find a place to grill fish!" Xiong Ying was a little excited, and Bai Lanxi followed closely behind.

Shen Yao smiled and said, "I'll help too!"

They are not allowed to bring in housework robots, so they have to do everything themselves. However, they are not at all averse to processing fish and shrimps, and they even enjoy it.

"Why don't we just deal with it here."

"I see there's a cave on one side above, perfect for resting at night."

They all have tents in their space hub, so it doesn't matter where they sleep, but having a cave for protection does make a difference.

Su Jiu and the others had no objections. Mu Wanqing was a quiet person, but she never fell behind in what was needed. Xiong Ze followed suit to help, and although his movements were clumsy, he was not slow.

A bag of fish and shrimp was quickly processed.

Looking at the thick smell of blood on the shore and by the water, Su Jiu's eyes flickered.

The medicine that Su Rui used might have been specially made. It didn't dissipate much after falling into the water. Coupled with the bloody smell, it would be dangerous here.

"Okay, let's go! I'm starving."

Grilled fish, grilled shrimp, fish soup, salt-baked shrimp, sweet and sour fish, stir-fried vegetables, and a pot of rice, it sounds delicious.

Several people drove away quickly in their mechas, and soon the riverside began to become turbulent.

The large strange beasts in the river rushed towards this side, and the strange beasts in the forest seemed to smell something and gathered here. Gradually, the movement became louder, and even high-level mutant plants moved towards this side.

"Your Highness, something is wrong here." Han Feng was sitting behind Gu Lingce, and he couldn't help but feel solemn when he saw the display screen frozen at this place.

Gu Lingce's aura was sharp, and his cold face had a more intimidating aura.

He knew that the bottle of potion that Jiujiu took out just now could be used to clean the mecha, but it could also clean off other things attached to the mecha.

For example, special medicines.

"Check Team 52. If they find any illegal drugs, handle them according to the rules."

The people in the stands were all smart people. After hearing what Gu Lingce said, they immediately realized that this matter might be related to Team No. 52, otherwise His Highness would not have said that.

Someone suddenly remembered, isn't this the place where the Crown Prince's wife and others clean their mechas?
If they were really given such a strong drug and the Crown Prince's wife and the others were not so alert, it would be terrible.

Thinking of this, no one present could sit still.
