The sign-in system hit me and took my country away

Chapter 315: Not Even the Trees Are Spared

"Don't be lazy, or I'll be running around with my granddaughter alone, and I won't be taking you with me!" Ji Mei said with a smile. There was a hint of cunning in her smile, and her eyes were full of affectionate teasing for her husband.

"That won't do. We've been together for decades. You can't possibly think of abandoning me." Su Sheng said anxiously. His expression was a little flustered, and he pretended to be afraid of being abandoned, but his voice was filled with love and doting.

"Haha, Grandpa, grandma was just teasing you. How could I bear to leave you alone to play?" Su Siyi said with a smile as she listened to her grandparents' words. She watched the two old people bickering, her heart filled with warmth and happiness. Her smile was as bright and beautiful as a flower blooming in spring.

"Hey, Siyi, I know your grandma is joking with me. I have to act a little anxious to make your grandma happy!" Su Sheng whispered in his granddaughter's ear. He bent down slightly and moved closer to Su Siyi, his eyes glittering with a hint of playfulness and tenderness.

"Okay! I'm sorry for interrupting your fun." Su Siyi felt really full. She must have been fed dog food by her grandparents. She shook her head helplessly, but a smile still hung on the corner of her mouth. She looked so adorable.

Ye Xuexin quickly engaged the foxtail bug in combat. Both the mecha and the foxtail bug were massive, and their clash quickly brought down many nearby trees. The mecha's metal arms collided with the foxtail bug's hard shell, producing a series of dull thuds. Each impact was accompanied by a powerful force that shook the surrounding air.

"In this interstellar battle, a huge area is destroyed in one blow!" Feng Bolin said with some regret as he looked at the large number of fallen trees. A trace of regret flashed in his eyes, and he frowned slightly as he looked at the fallen trees.

"Brother Bolin, you're still worried about the trees!" Luo Jingzhong said speechlessly. There was a hint of teasing in his tone, but his eyes also showed some surprise at Feng Bolin's unique focus.

"Haha, these trees look huge, and they're all resources!" Feng Bolin said with a smile. He scratched his head, a simple smile on his face, and tried to explain his thoughts.

"Yes, but even if these trees fall, we can collect them and take them back for research. After all, they are interstellar trees!" Gu Zhilun thought that these trees are also interstellar, so they should also have research value! His eyes lit up, as if he saw the scientific research potential hidden behind these trees.

"Yes, this is also a resource. We must bring some back for research." Gu Zhilun also thought of this and immediately began to flexibly collect the trees broken by Ye Xuexin and his companions. He quickly shuttled between the fallen trees, his movements nimble and skillful, selecting the appropriate branches and pieces of wood.

"Well, it feels like Brother Zhilun is even more active than us!" Luo Jingzhong said with a smile. He couldn't help laughing as he watched Gu Zhilun busying around, but there was also a hint of eagerness in his eyes.

"Then we have to be more proactive." Everyone began to gather resources, but they were careful not to damage the natural environment. Everyone took action, carefully collecting broken branches and scattered leaves, trying to minimize the impact on the surrounding environment.

But at least they started collecting every different plant they saw. Like adventurers exploring for treasure, they were full of curiosity and enthusiasm for every new discovery, not letting go of anything that might be valuable.

"Brother Nangong, there's strength in numbers!" Su Siyi said happily. She watched the team members actively collecting resources, her heart filled with satisfaction and joy, her eyes sparkling with excitement.

"Siyi, take a look around here to see if there are any resources worth collecting!" His group of men, this is the resources that have not been collected, and they are not picky about anything. Nangong Jingming smiled helplessly, but his eyes also recognized the positive attitude of the team members.

"Yeah, let me see!" Su Siyi had forgotten about her test ball and immediately took it out to test if there were any resources nearby worth collecting. She quickly took the test ball from her waist and operated it with a focused look, hoping to make some new discoveries.

Soon the test data appeared, and there was no energy worth collecting. Su Siyi looked at the data displayed on the test ball, a hint of disappointment flashed in his eyes, and he sighed slightly.

"There's nothing here worth collecting," Su Siyi said with some disappointment. There was a hint of frustration in her voice, and her shoulders slumped slightly.

"It's okay. This might be the edge of the forest. If there really is any good energy source, it must have been taken away." Nangong Jingming said soothingly. He gently patted Su Siyi's shoulder, his eyes full of encouragement and comfort.

"You're right. We need to get in as quickly as possible, otherwise we won't have enough time to collect energy," Su Siyi said. She raised her head, her eyes rekindled with fighting spirit, and her expression became firm.

"Well, don't worry, we're already growing very fast." Nangong Jingming was very satisfied with his people's adaptability and learning ability. He looked into the depths of the forest in the distance, his eyes revealing anticipation and confidence in the challenges ahead.

Ye Xuexin's side finally fought, but with Gu Zhilun's help, the two of them successfully defeated the foxtail. Ye Xuexin was already panting in his mecha, his clothes drenched in sweat, but his eyes were filled with the joy of victory. Gu Zhilun slowly approached in his mecha, and he and Ye Xuexin exchanged a high five in celebration. Their figures, illuminated by the sunlight, looked like heroes returning in triumph.

Ye Xuexin realized from this battle that his coordination with the mech still needed some practice. If he could only move faster, he could easily dispatch the foxtail bug single-handedly. Standing beside the mech, he gazed at the subdued foxtail bug, his brow furrowed slightly, a look of reluctance and contemplation in his eyes. He knew full well that in this interstellar battlefield, every second of increased speed could mean the difference between life and death, and every deeper connection with the mech could make a world of difference in the outcome of a battle. He vowed to himself that upon his return, he would intensify his training, truly integrating himself with the mech.

From a distance, An Yi quietly watched their progress. He'd been a bit worried when he saw them encounter the foxtail bug, but he hadn't expected them to handle it so easily. It seemed their mechas were truly impressive. He hid among the dense foliage, like a lurking cheetah, observing the battlefield through the gaps in the leaves. When he saw them successfully subdue the foxtail bug, a flicker of surprise crossed his eyes, and he had a new assessment of their strength.

He had naturally noticed that their mechas felt superior to their current best, and he had already informed his master of this. An Yi quickly pulled out his communication device and conveyed this crucial information briefly and precisely to Ren Lin. His voice was low and calm, as if he were narrating an ordinary matter, yet the content was enough to stir up a ripple in Ren Lin's heart.

Ren Lin was also somewhat surprised when he learned this. It seemed they really had a lot of good stuff! Sitting in the camp, Ren Lin widened his eyes slightly after receiving An Yi's message, a complex expression on his face. He was amazed at the resources Nangong Jingming and the others possessed, but also looked forward to and pondered the possibilities of future cooperation. It was too late that night. Next time I go back, I must talk to them in person. If there's something good, I can't forget him. He calculated secretly in his mind, his eyes revealing a hint of eagerness and shrewdness.

In reality, they hadn't even considered exchanging mechas for items. After all, these mechas required points to exchange, and they were very expensive. They had plenty of food, so they wouldn't consider using their mechas. They simply wanted to get more mechas back. Nangong Jingming and the others knew the importance of mechas to their own strength and future interstellar exploration. In their eyes, these mechas were precious strategic resources, not trading items.

"Everyone must remain vigilant at all times. Zergs could appear here at any time. Everyone must be prepared to fight at any time." Nangong Jingming said to everyone. His voice was steady and powerful, and his eyes were full of seriousness and vigilance, like a beacon, illuminating the team members' path forward in this unknown interstellar environment.

"Yes," everyone answered earnestly. The team members responded in unison, their voices firm and consistent, their eyes burning with fighting spirit and determination. They knew that in this strange and dangerous interstellar forest, unity and vigilance were the cornerstones of survival.

After all, this was interstellar space, not an environment they were familiar with. They were completely unfamiliar with the situation, so they had to be extremely careful. Su Siyi looked at the unfamiliar plants and landforms around her, feeling a deep sense of strangeness and awe. She knew they were like pioneers venturing into uncharted territory, each step fraught with challenges and risks.

"Sister Su, look, this smart brain can scan." Zhong Shumei, having discovered a new feature, happily went to Su Siyi to share it. Like a child discovering a treasure, her eyes sparkled with excitement as she trotted over to Su Siyi.

"It really is! It can identify the plants here!" Su Siyi said happily after seeing the scan results. She used her intelligent brain to carefully examine the scanned plant information, a smile of surprise on her face, as if she had found a key to open the door to knowledge in this unfamiliar interstellar forest.
