"Haha, it seems you really are a helpful person. No wonder the captain told me to ask you with Shizuka."

After moving the heavy wooden stake to a safe place, Nagasawa was exhausted. He stood there with his hands on his hips, panting heavily.

But Yunyu seemed not to feel tired at all. After placing the wooden stake, she didn't even catch her breath before turning around and running to move other things.

He bent down and carried a stack of collapsed bricks, walking steadily toward the pile of rubble, his movements as nimble as a manual laborer who had been doing manual work for years.

Looking at Yun Yu's back, Chang Ze couldn't help but sigh inwardly. This young man's stamina was just too outrageous. Could it be that he was already an old man?

Upon hearing Nagasawa's words, Yun Yu finally understood why it was Nagasawa and Shizuka who were asking her questions.

"And you, as a combatant, why are you here?" After figuring it out, Yun Yu dusted off her hands and asked Chang Ze with a hint of curiosity.

The personnel of the CEA Defense Force are all publicly known; Nagasawa's photo and information can be found on the official website, so Nagasawa was not surprised when he heard Yunyu's question.

He walked to the shade of a tree by the roadside, picked up a bottle of mineral water, took a big gulp, wiped his mouth, looked at Yun Yu, and said in the exact same tone as Yun Yu had just spoken:

"Isn't this just about helping more people?"

Hearing Changze reply with his own words, Yunyu couldn't help but smile.

He never expected that this seemingly tough-guy team member, Changze, was actually Hao Chen.

After thinking for a moment, he waved to Nagasawa and said, "Then let's continue helping others."

After saying that, he turned and walked towards another pile of ruins, showing no intention of resting.

Upon hearing this, Nagasawa was stunned for a moment, and the words "Let's rest for a while" that he was about to say got stuck in his throat and he couldn't say them at all.

He looked at Yun Yu's back, then looked down at his own trembling arms, his heart churning with inner turmoil. He was truly exhausted and wanted to sit down and rest.

If even a regular volunteer like Ke Yunyu is working this hard, it would be too embarrassing for a CEA combatant to complain about being tired and needing to rest.

He wanted to persuade Yunyu to rest for a while, but he felt it would be embarrassing to say so, so he gritted his teeth, hung the mineral water bottle on his belt, and followed her.

It's just moving things, right? Who's afraid of who!

While Changze and Yunyu were running around as volunteers, each more capable than the last, Xiong Er and Sakata were analyzing the data collected from yesterday's battle in the temporary command post set up by CEA.

The temporary command post was a military tent set up on an open space outside the town, filled with computers and instruments, with various data cables and power cables crisscrossing on the ground.

"You mean the material of that monster from yesterday was somewhat similar to the material used in the nearby steel mill?"

Team member Xiong Er stared at the analysis report on the screen, his brows furrowed, his tone full of disbelief.

"That's right, based on the analysis of these monster fragments, that's the case." Sakata nodded, his fingers flying across the keyboard, bringing up a set of comparative data.

"But this is impossible!" Xiong Er's expression was clearly incredulous. He abruptly stood up from his chair and pointed at the data on the screen:

"Everyone saw the strength of that monster's skin. Even the Dragon Might Mech's 'Dragon Might Core Cannon' couldn't penetrate it. It could only chip off a bit of the outer skin, causing a few sparks to fly off the steel armor before it was gone."

How could this material be the same as steel? Even the hardest special steel couldn't be this hard, could it?

If its material is indeed steel, then the hardness of that steel is beyond the scope of human understanding.

"I find it hard to believe too, but that's the truth." Sakata shook his head helplessly, indicating that the analysis confirmed this.

"Furthermore, I discovered something else: the Qingyanshan Steel Plant stopped producing that kind of steel sixty years ago, and there were other reasons besides the volcanic eruption that swallowed the steel plant."

Captain Sato, who had listened to the whole thing, sat in his chair with a furrowed brow, deep in thought.

His gaze fell on Qingyan Mountain in the distance outside the tent, the dormant volcano that had been silent for sixty years, appearing particularly silent in the setting sun.

After a moment's thought, Captain Sato decisively issued the order:

"Shizuka will continue to participate in the maintenance of the Dragon Might mech, and restore the mech to combat status as soon as possible."

Sakata, first of all, you need to analyze where that monster went.

The Xiong Er team continued to monitor the surrounding environment, focusing on the earth vein fluctuations and temperature changes in the Qingyan Mountain area to prevent the monster from appearing again.

Then Nagasawa...”

At this point, Captain Sato paused for a moment, then remembered that Nagasawa had gone to the town to help rebuild because he had nothing to do for the time being, and had not returned yet.

He quickly picked up his headset and gave the order:

"Team member Nagasawa, go to the steel plant in the northwest right now and investigate, focusing on the current state of the steel plant ruins, and see if there is anything unusual."

Nagasawa's panting voice came through the earpiece, as if he were moving something: "Roger that! I'm coming right away!"

Captain Sato put down his headset and turned his gaze back to the distant Qingyan Mountain.

The setting sun had already sunk behind the mountains, dyeing the sky a dark red, like congealed blood. The dormant volcano, silent for sixty years, resembled a sleeping giant in the twilight, its stillness unsettling.

Inside the tent, the indicator lights on the analytical instruments were still flashing, and lines of data were scrolling across the screen.

Everyone knows that this battle is not over yet.

[Haha, this time it's mainly about portraying the characters of the defense team, so they're not too generic. After this episode, it'll be a recap of the defense team and a werewolf game. The author needs to learn a thing or two.]

Finally, thank you everyone for your support and patience. Love you all, meow Ciallo~(∠・ω<)⌒☆】
