Chapter 159 A reporter wants to make a big news

"Are you still recalling the feeling just now? Judging from the number of your wedding ships, you shouldn't be the kind of person who is obsessed with this."

Leaning on the sofa, Hu Teng lifted Xia Bai's chin with his slender fingers, and a faint smile appeared on his cold face: "Or, do you want to do it again?"

Hu Teng's beautiful face without makeup made Xia Bai's heart seem to skip a beat. He knew that he had been controlled by this ship girl in front of him who exuded a mysterious temperament.

But even though Xia Bai knew this, he had no way to regain the initiative. It was because Hu Teng really piqued his XP. She was a pretty and cool big sister, and she could perfectly switch her temperament. Who wouldn't like such a ship girl?

Looking at the other person's smooth and moist lips, Xia Bai swallowed his saliva and replied hesitantly, "Forget it. This is the hotel lobby. It would be bad if someone saw us."

The smile seemed to be mocking. Hu Teng let go of Xia Bai's jaw, put his hands in the front pockets of his sweater, and said in a cold voice: "Even someone like you will follow the secular view... I thought you were very disdainful of this."

"Because I have human nature, not God. Humans are creatures that care about the opinions of their peers and need to maintain laws to maintain order. Having great power does not mean that we have to abandon our humanity."

His eyes became calm and peaceful. Under Hu Teng's stimulation, in order to prevent his lust from showing, Xia Bai immediately entered a calm state and continued to talk along the topic brought up by the other party: "Having power does allow you to do whatever you want, but I believe that only a strong heart can bring true strength."

"Those who lose their humanity in pursuit of power will only get something illusory in the end. My big white fox once said that although she believes in the law of the jungle, she will not abuse her power to kill ordinary people for fun."

"Although I have no interest in becoming a hero to protect the world, I also don't want to see innocent lives being killed."

"Since we were born into this world, we should do something for this world, right?"

They value humanity more than divinity, and fight only for psychological comfort. What a collection of contradictions...

After thoroughly analyzing Xia Bai's character in his mind, Hu Teng said expressionlessly: "If you want to feel at ease, don't care too much about what others think. Since we can live in this world, we should have an independent self and not be influenced by others."

"Although we have different views on other people's eyes, I don't think I will regret my choice."

"That's it. Although I have a lot of things to warn you, I will discuss them with you slowly after I officially become a member of the Sakura Empire."

Seeing Hu Teng picking up her backpack and preparing to leave after she finished speaking, Xia Bai quickly stopped her.

"Wait, I'm also going to the Maritime Administration, and I'm waiting for St. Louis to change clothes, how about we go together on the way?"

Glancing at Xia Bai, Hu Teng put down his backpack and asked in confusion, "Why did you and St. Louis go to the Maritime Administration so early? I should have calculated your merits clearly."

This question stumped Xia Bai. He immediately left Mingjing Zhishui and said indignantly, "Saint Louis has done so many bad things that she actually used such despicable means to provoke me to take responsibility for her."

"Responsible?"

Looking up and seeing Hu Tengting's confused expression, Xia Bai told her the whole incident from beginning to end in great detail.

"...So now we have to go to the Maritime Administration to customize the ring. I don't believe that she would dare to accept this oath ring that I spent a huge amount of money to make."

How to say it? Hu Teng only now realized that people could be so bored as to do such things. As a rational person, she couldn't understand what Xia Bai and St. Louis were trying to do. Did they just want to see the other party apologize and make a fool of themselves?

Although these two people were full of complaints, Hu Teng still kindly reminded them: "A ring made of 5000 red spikes is not more effective than an ordinary ring. At most, the oath gem is a little bigger, and a lot of energy is wasted."

"It doesn't matter. I'm not really going to build it. I'm sure when St. Louis walks to the door of the Maritime Administration, she will get scared and return these 5000 red tips to me."

"Besides, she hasn't come out yet. Maybe she is too guilty to go and has already run away secretly."

Seeing Xia Bai's confident look of winning, Hu Teng sighed helplessly. It was impossible to persuade the damned guy with kind words.

Although she didn't think that St. Louis was serious, who could say for sure? Maybe the rich lady Baiying had taken a fancy to Xia Bai and was forcing him to take responsibility in this way and then supporting him.

Speak of the devil, here comes the devil. Just when Xia Bai was thinking about how to say the victory line, St. Louis, wearing a white corset dress, walked in.

"It took quite some time to take a shower. Sorry to have kept you waiting." With a chuckle, St. Louis looked at Hu Teng and asked, "Miss Hu Teng, do you want to join us? That's perfect. We are just in need of a witness."

Seeing the smile on St. Louis' face, Hu Teng was almost certain that Xia Bai had fallen into a trap. However, with the idea of ​​learning from mistakes, she did not warn him, but just nodded indifferently.

The price of growing up is very painful. It is better to take this opportunity to let Xia Bai learn a lesson than to make a fatal mistake due to naivety on the battlefield in the future.

Just like that, with each of them having their own agenda, the three of them came to the Maritime Administration.

As soon as he got off the car, Xia Bai saw the dense crowd at the door and was immediately confused.

"Why are there more people today than yesterday? Isn't it said that there will be so many people on Monday?"

"Not only that, most of them are official commanders and ship girls, not students in the academy. They should be here to inquire about the news."

Walking up to Xia Bai, St. Louis said seriously, "Rong Rong made too much noise. The news we announced is that the giant weapon of unknown origin has been repelled by White Eagle."

"But this kind of statement may fool ordinary people, but it is impossible to fool these experienced 'old hands'. In order to know the inside story, they can only come to the Maritime Administration to inquire about the news."

Pointing to a group of people holding cameras in the distance, St. Louis continued, "Look, there are reporters there too. They also want to dig out the truth and make a big news story."

With his hands in his pockets, Hu Teng walked to the side of St. Louis and snorted coldly: "Ha~ Knowing the truth is not necessarily a good thing, and those who want to expose the truth of this matter are either stupid or evil, they are all hyenas driven by interests."

"Faced with beings like the Supreme and Embers, being ignorant of carefully woven lies is bliss."

Chapter 160: Treat others with their own medicine.

Most people are fed up with journalists, mainly because this group is too aggressive and calls itself the "uncrowned king". Especially in the so-called "free" places like the Takors area, journalists are even more lawless.

It is impossible that the government and the Maritime Administration did not order a ban on reporting on yesterday's incident, but these people still did as they pleased. As for freedom of speech, what journalists care about is whether they can make big news. As for social stability, it has nothing to do with them.

Just as Xia Bai and his friends arrived, a sharp-eyed reporter spotted the wealthy White Eagle woman from St. Louis, and quickly came up to the three of them with a camera and a microphone.

"Hello, Miss St. Louis. I'm a reporter from the Fulk Free Press. What exactly is the mysterious giant weapon that appeared yesterday?"

Blinking, St. Louis asked expressionlessly: "You said it was a mysterious giant weapon, how would we know?"

"But you, the White Eagles, announced the victory over the enemy. Didn't you get any information about the enemy during the battle?"

"No, you should ask Enterprise to see if she has noticed anything. Please move aside, I have something important to do at the Maritime Administration."

It can be said that St. Louis has tried his best to suppress his urge to beat someone up, and just told the person to leave in a cold voice. However, the reporter seemed to not understand what he said, and seeing that St. Louis was not listening, he stuffed the microphone into Xia Bai's mouth again.

"Sir, may I ask what is your relationship with Miss St. Louis of White Eagle?"

She is worthy of being called a reporter, her ability to make connections is so strong, and when she couldn't dig up any information about tolerance, she asked about the relationship between the two.

Scratching his head, Xia Bai reached out to take the microphone from the reporter and said, "I don't know her. I just happened to be passing by and saw so many people coming here to join in the fun."

"I saw you get out of Miss St. Louis' car with my own eyes just now. Let me remind you that we are broadcasting live on TV. Are you going to lie in front of so many viewers?"

He didn't dare to ask St. Louis any further questions, because she was a ship girl and had a huge fortune. In this capitalist country, if he really pissed her off, he would be fired the next day.

As for Hu Teng, who looked disgusted at the moment, he didn't dare to interview her. None of the ship girls working in the Maritime Administration had a good attitude towards reporters, and Hu Teng had a long history of bad deeds. He didn't know how many reporters he had beaten in the past.

So he chose Xia Bai as a second choice. Seeing how young he was, he was probably just a new commander with no background and was easy to bully. If he could dig out some explosive information from Xia Bai and write it down in a good way, his dream of getting promoted and getting a raise would not be far away.

Xia Bai was not fooled by the other party's suggestive threat, but he was not angry. Instead, he straightened his clothes in front of the camera, waved his hands, and said excitedly: "Kaohsiung, can you see me? "

Ajax, who was far away in New York City, happened to see this scene after turning on the TV. He immediately spat out the tea in his mouth. After repeatedly confirming that the stupid face on TV was Xia Bai, he quickly used the communication ring to contact other people.

Soon, the room was full of people, all staring at Xia Bai on TV, wanting to see what trouble this guy would cause.

"Awful, can you see me?"

"Where's Sirius?"

"..."

The reporter couldn't stand it anymore when he was halfway through the dish. He snatched the microphone from Xia Bai's hand and said angrily, "Sir, you won't reply even if someone sees it. This is a live TV broadcast!"

"It's my first time on TV, so I'm a little excited... hehehe."

Xia Bai smiled shyly, as if he remembered something, and suddenly realized: "By the way, what were you going to interview me about just now?"

This person can't be a fool...

Seeing the ignorant and innocent expression on Xia Bai's face, the reporter resisted the urge to punch him in the face and said, "I am asking you about your relationship with St. Louis. Don't try to play dumb. The public is entitled to know about this."

Speaking arrogantly, the reporter waved the press card on his chest in his hand with a very unfriendly attitude.

"I find it very strange. Let's not talk about whether I have any relationship with St. Louis. Even if I do, why should I tell you?"

Shrugging his shoulders, Xia Bai spread his hands and smiled: "This has seriously violated my privacy. I think..."

"So you don't deny having any connection with St. Louise? Are you her commander?"

Seeing the reporter on TV asking questions in this way, Ajax immediately covered her face. She didn't know what to say. Some people wanted to die, and there was no way to stop them.

Xia Bai's mental state is not very stable now. If he is really angry, the entire Fulk will be destroyed.

Just as she expected, Xia Bai's gentle smile suddenly turned gloomy, and he reached out and grabbed the reporter's collar.

"I am threatening you now. You heard me right. I am threatening you. If I see something in the news tomorrow that shouldn't be there, you will die miserably..."

Such words made the reporter's eyes light up. He secretly glanced at the camera behind him and immediately responded with an expression of fearlessness: "Everything you said was recorded. I can understand it as a threat to my life safety...ah!"

Xia Bai easily broke the man's hand, threw it to the ground, and said to the camera: "I did threaten his life, and I can guarantee that I will say the following words in a rational state."

"General of the Army, Edward Bradley, you will regret everything you have done. Don't think that no one knows that the huge weapon that appeared in Fulk City yesterday was made by your military. Is it any use to send this reporter to stop me now?"

"I, Army Second Lieutenant Thompson Jackson, am reporting this with my real name. I will never stop fighting for justice in my heart unless I send you, the bureaucrats who are just sitting there doing nothing and taking human lives, to prison and sentence you to death."

After saying that, Xia Bai took out a stack of documents from his arms and walked into the Maritime Administration with a swagger.

Seeing this, Hu Teng and St. Louis, who were watching the show, looked at each other, walked to Xia Bai's side, and acted like guards, which made the people who were watching the live news in front of the TV suddenly understand something.

The disaster in Fulk City was planned by an admiral named Edward, and the righteous Captain Thompson Jackson stood up and pointed the finger at the top military officials. He has now entered the Maritime Administration under the escort of the White Eagle to submit evidence.

No matter what the result is, it will be big news that will shock the world.

Chapter 161: Is there really any hope for a world that relies on otakus to fight?

You said there was something wrong with us, the Son of Prometheus, and that Barton Bryan had lost his humanity in Project V? Then I can also say that the appearance of Tolerance yesterday was caused by you.

Anyway, only a few people know the specific situation, so I can make up whatever I want, incite public opinion, coerce the people, and make it seem like a very high-end method. You do it on the first day and I will do it on the fifteenth.

Treat others in their own way. This is the strategy that Xia Bai came up with during the interview.

Not to mention how big the storm is now, and how impressed Ajax was with this speech, after entering the Maritime Administration, Xia Bai clearly felt that the lively environment suddenly became quiet, and hundreds of eyes were staring at him.

Because of the existence of the communication ring, the information channels of various commanders are interconnected. Yesterday, Xia Bai's combat figure was photographed by a curious student and posted on the forum.

The smart ones had already figured out Xia Bai's identity and background from clues. Thompson Jackson's improvised name could not fool these people at all.

Touching St. Louis's soft waist with his elbow, Xia Bai whispered, "Hey, why are they all looking at me like this? Do you have any inside information?"

The strange feeling in her body made Saint Louis a little shy. She glared at Xia Bai and replied unhappily, "Maybe your identity has been exposed. After all, before entering the mirror sea, there were four mechas in the sky. Only a blind person could not see them."

"Ah, what should I do?"

"Don't worry about it. The relationship between the garrison and the army is not good. They are too busy gloating over your misfortune to go to the TV station and reveal your true identity."

After hearing what St. Louis said, Xia Bai immediately put aside his worries, smiled friendly at others, and then strode into the elevator.

"and many more!"

There was a commotion among the crowd, and a black-haired man called out to Xia Bai loudly and ran quickly to him.

At this time, St. Louis whispered in Xia Bai's ear, "Commander Song Ya, originally fought on the front line in the Takors area, and after pacifying this area, he moved to the Mingyang area. The garrison there should have just been built."

Looking at St. Louis in surprise, Xia Bai thought to himself that he had underestimated this rich White Eagle woman. Although her fighting power was relatively weak, a big capitalist is still a big capitalist. She could even find out whether the other party's garrison in Mingyang was completed.

It can be said that apart from combat, St. Louis is the best candidate for secretary ship.

At this point, Xia Bai looked at Song Ya in front of him and said calmly, "Hello, I'm RX-02. What can I do for you?"

"My name is Song Ya, and I'm currently stationed in the Mingyang Sea... Um, from the looks of it, are you really the son of Prometheus?"

For some reason, after hearing Xia Bai's words, Song Ya's mood suddenly became a little depressed.

"Replacement guaranteed."

To prove what he said, Xia Bai spread out one arm of RX-02 behind him and waved it in front of Song Ya, causing exclamations in the hall.

After recovering from the brief shock, Song Ya continued to ask, "So you were one of the four mechas that appeared on the battlefield yesterday?"

Nodding, Xia Bai answered honestly: "The one holding the spear is me, and the others are my brothers."

Xia Bai has always had a good impression of the commanders as a group. Moreover, St. Louis said that after Takors was pacified, Song Ya took the girls under his command to the Mingyang area to fight.

Xia Bai knew he couldn't do such a thing, but that didn't stop him from admiring such people. It was because there were many people like Song Ya among the commanders that the order of this world had not collapsed.

There is no such thing as a peaceful life. It's just the hard work of LSPs called commanders.

"I actually have a younger brother... Who on earth told me that all the sons of Prometheus are mecha girls?"

After hearing Xia Bai's answer, Song Ya seemed to accept the reality. He became very agitated and shouted unwillingly, his voice full of sorrow and despair.

The Sons of Prometheus is a very mysterious group. The only one who is active online and whose true identity is known is RX-03. So since some time ago, there has been a rumor that all the Sons of Prometheus are mecha girls.

When Xia Bai's photos were secretly taken and posted online, it immediately caused an uproar on the commander forum, and the commanders of "Cloud Cultivation" cried out that they had been deceived.

But because the photos taken secretly by students are not very clear, some people analyzed that Xia Bai is actually a neutral and heroic iceberg girl. After all, his cold face and ponytail under the calm mirror are too confusing.

Song Ya was a supporter of this speculation, so when he saw Xia Bai at the Maritime Administration, his eyes suddenly lit up and he came over to chat with her. His XP was a bit weird, he preferred tall and androgynous ice-cold girls, especially the other party's arrogant eyes, which was simply amazing.

The result is obvious. After learning that Xia Bai was a man and had a younger brother, Song Ya shed tears of regret.
