Planet of Sand and Oasis of Iron

Chapter 148 147. Some people are quite happy to stir up trouble now, wait! (rd update)
Before daybreak, Seifer chose to drive this machine directly to the node city.

The rolling sand and dust drew two glowing flight paths under the feet of the aircraft in propulsion mode. It must be said that in such a slow mode, this engineering machine is quite interesting to drive.

Even ordinary people and ordinary workers can drive it easily, and the operation mode and logic are very user-friendly... If all else fails, you can replace the chassis with tracks, which will make it even easier to drive.

In general, the customization effect is extremely strong, and even various engineering spare parts can be mounted directly on the back - it is not a weapon, but various required spare parts can be directly installed in the shoulder mount.

In order to deal with possible crises, the Cypher machine has a self-locking machine gun mounted on its left shoulder, so it is likely that there will be some ammunition expenses.

Anyway, let's put it this way. When he drove the machine into the Node City, a specialist from the modification agency had already asked him to park it in a dedicated helipad area.

Then, in addition to accepting the mission, he also received ridicule from Tien.

"Hahaha, am I seeing things? What the hell did you drive over here? Quick, let me take a closer look!"

There was no sign of Tien in sight, so Cypher opened the cover and looked under the machine. Tien was sitting in a wheelchair, grinning from ear to ear.

Behind her, Shengnai pushed the wheelchair helplessly, wanting to ask her to calm down, as such excessive activity would not be good for wound healing.

"Why are you here?"

Hearing this, Tien leaned back in her chair. "You can admire your new toy, but honestly, it's really ugly, especially without your engineering hat on."

The hat is hanging on the back of the chair, and I can wear it anytime I want. But why doesn't this guy stay in the hospital and come here to make fun of me?

Then Tien cleared his throat: "Ahem, um... let's get down to business. You're going to the middle level, right? And it's a place that's already been taken over and is going to be redeveloped?"

"Well, the mission is quite important."

Tien pulled out a storage device and threw it into Seifer's hands. "This is a map and detailed information about the entrance. Remember to load it into your navigation system, otherwise you'll end up lost and fall into a hole."

I'm quite curious about how she obtained this information. Logically speaking, only independent mercenaries who have reached the middle level are qualified to survey and obtain it. Outsiders have to pay to get first-hand information, right?

"Oh, that's why you don't understand. I copied it from a young nurse."

As expected of you, Pirate King, you are really a flirt wherever you go. You are even more flirtatious than Lin Shenxue, that guy who has flirtatious tendencies.

Then she turned around in her wheelchair and continued to stay in the hospital... For her, it was great to have the hospitalization reimbursed by the government (Safer's money).

Shengnai, who was left behind, raised the small pink medical kit in his hand and said, "I want to go to the bottom of the node city with Sefer."

"No, I can't do that."

Although he could be resurrected, it was hard for Seifer to imagine that Saint Nai was killed by something under the node city. It would not be good for his brain.

"Just listen to me first. I want Cypher to take me down."

"This engineering machine can't perform combat duties, right?" She smiled gently. "So, you'll only be assigned repair or installation work. So, you don't have to worry about riding it, too?"

"I will never get off the plane on my own initiative and completely obey Cypher, unless... unless someone is seriously injured in front of me and I have to treat him?"

Cypher jumped off the machine and stood still. "If you just want to see what the bottom of Node City looks like, why not just watch the footage someone brought back, or I can open a separate communication channel later?"

"Why do you have to go down there yourself?"

Yes, why did she have to go down? Shengnai herself didn't know, as if something in her heart was urging her to stop and simply watch Cypher's activities. She needed at least one chance to act with Cypher. While she could secretly follow him down and return on her own, that would violate her agreement with Cypher.

She subconsciously lowered her head and gripped the strap of the medical kit tightly, her knuckles turning white.

Even though she appears and disappears mysteriously on a daily basis and always manages to arrange everything in advance, as if everything has been calculated, that is all under the premise of 'not actively making any requests'.

"Okay, don't worry about it. It must be that Tien who's blowing you off behind your back, right? She even flirted with another nurse right in front of you."

Cypher crossed his arms and nodded his ear: "You're online, Tien."

"Ha, I think you're tired of seeing that girl following you around every day. Why not give her a push? Some people fall in love at first sight, while others enjoy the feeling of being secretly loved. So, are you planning on being in love until old age?"

Tien's voice was full of energy: "How can you be a mercenary without being prepared to be wiped out tomorrow? Okay, I'm going to bed. You can do your best."

Shengnai suddenly let go of his inner conflict and said softly, "I'm so willful. I'm sorry. I'll continue to wait here for Cypher to come up after the battle and do my best to provide logistical support."

"Besides, we can wait until this node city is completely suppressed and free passage is allowed before going down to take a look."

The sudden thought came from her curiosity about the life of an independent mercenary. As a field medic, she couldn't understand why mercenaries took their jobs so seriously if they were just trying to make a living.

Of course, Tien would whisper in his ear from time to time, telling him to just watch, and that guy would just enjoy that feeling.

After calming down, she felt that she was too impulsive and made some bad requests. She was a little worried that Seifer would think she was unreasonable.

But in fact, she was also affected by the environment.

The first is the resurrection array, and the second is that he and Cypher (the real body) had taken a slime bath together before, and their relationship had obviously improved.

Last but not least, Tien was a guy who enjoyed watching the fun and didn't mind making trouble. He not only gave a push, but also gave a kick.

With multiple secrets and someone acting as a catalyst, how could a young girl who had just graduated from school resist this?
Quickly sorting out this connection, Seifer suddenly took the medical kit from her hand and said, "I can't say I'm willful. I understand why I get a little hot-blooded after spending too much time with mercenaries."

"Besides those who are purely motivated by money, there are also some mercenaries who are motivated by some inexplicable 'ideals' or 'beliefs'. It's quite normal for them to attract innocent children."

In the past life, there were many young people who became excited after watching some propaganda, and then worked hard with a certain goal as motivation. Except for those who couldn't persist and fell behind halfway, those people later made great achievements.

It's better to say that Shengnai didn't sneak down there, and continued to be elusive, which was already a good compliance with the agreement. Compared to some guys who show off their abilities...

"But I have to modify the space behind the seat, otherwise it will be too crowded to squeeze you in."

"Really? Then...can I help too?"

"It's a small renovation, I'll take care of it right away, just wait for a moment."

In the communication, Tien's voice became strange and sounded like "vomiting, vomiting, vomiting".

Seifer returned to the fuselage to see if there was anything behind the seat that could be removed, while Sanai stood under the fuselage, leaning against the heavy engineering steel, taking a few deep breaths.

Then he carefully clenched his fists, and the soft and sweet feelings in his heart that had never been expressed were slightly rippled.

No matter how reserved and gentle a girl is, she will become proactive when faced with her true feelings.
