Chapter 387: Falling into a Trap

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The number of women in the Federation was small, to begin with, not to mention in an army that was no different from a Buddhist temple. That was basically not seeing a single female figure all year round!

As the saying goes, after being in the army for three to five years, they would fall in love with a pig.

Not to mention Mo Chu’s delicate and obedient appearance. At this moment, she was half-lowering her head. Her jet-black hair was just hanging by her ears, revealing her fair jaw and clear eyes. It made the hearts of the group of rough men soften like a pool of water! With a stir, the pool started to bubble!

The originally peaceful and quiet Mo Chu’s lips curled up slightly. Her brows were curved, and she suddenly became bright and beautiful. It was like the warm sun outside. It was not dazzling, but it was exceptionally soothing. this made this group of old bachelors even more dumbfounded!

As expected, she was the girl that Marshal Ning had taken a fancy to. She was really different from those coquettish b*tches outside!

Thus, the group of men secretly swallowed in their saliva. They wished they could not even roll their eyes. Aiya, hey! This was completely the materialization of their ideals in their hearts! Unfortunately… as they sniffled, everyone’s eyes could not help but reveal some regret. Such a good girl had already been snatched away by Marshal Ning!

Mo Chu did not notice the complicated emotions of the soldiers beside her. She was busy organizing her words at the moment. Her slender white and tender fingers tapped on the terminal. Not long after, a hot piece of news was freshly released.

Then, the netizens on the Starnet once again witnessed the huge appeal of the name ‘Mo Chu’!

A dynamic message was hung high on the front page of the Spirit Food Shop, trying to ensure that everyone could see it clearly — “Hello everyone, I am Mo Chu. From next month onwards, the Spirit Food Shop will resume normal operations.”

A simple sentence instantly caused a huge uproar on the internet!

This message had only been posted for less than a minute, but it had already been liked and shared by hundreds of thousands of people. The sensation caused was like a surging flood, with each wave becoming more and more powerful.

“Damn! What… What did I see just now?”

“This dynamic message, am I seeing things? Or is someone stealing the backstage of the Spirit Food Shop? Quickly pull this person out and kill him without mercy!”

“Get lost! This is clearly the return of my Lucky Star. I can’t be any more excited!”

“The Heavens have finally heard my loyal prayer!”

“Oh my God! The spirit food that I haven’t seen for a long time, I can finally see it again. Tears will flow forever!”

…

Similar comments immediately spread across all the major forums and official websites. In just a short half an hour, the news of ‘Mo Chu’s return’ was successfully pushed to the top of the hot searches list! In turn, it attracted even more people’s attention. The initial spark of fire instantly became like a prairie fire!

There were even some diehard Mo Chu fans who posted a unified slogan on the forums —

“Little Chu, Welcome Home!”

“Little Chu, Welcome Home!”

“Little Chu, Welcome Home!”

…

A simple four-word line formed stacks upon stacks in the comment pages. Moreover, with lightning speed, they quickly took over all the major web pages, leaving no way out for other news.

As the number of views was too high and too fast, it even caused the internet to be paralyzed and unable to log in normally. This situation could not help but make people sigh. Even if Mo Chu had left for a year, her influence was still not to be underestimated!

Of course, there were also many haters who began to doubt.

“Hehe! This is definitely hype! Such a big matter, would the Federation not inform us on the official website?”

“That’s right. They might be using this opportunity to advertise the ‘Spirit Food Shop’. After all, its popularity is no longer what it was in the past.”

“Right! Everyone, don’t be fooled by them!”

The irascible netizens immediately started a war with their guns. “What the f*ck are they trying to fool you with? How can they continue to fool us with such a thing?”

“That’s right, they’re still trying to create hype? Our Lucky Star doesn’t need such a thing!”

“Hehe, you’re a retard, yet you still refuse to admit it. I’ll give you a piece of advice from the bottom of my heart. Hurry up and take your medicine, or it’ll be too late, alright?”

…

He had to admit that the majority of the netizens’ combat power was still very strong!

Looking at the flashes of swords and the smoke that filled the air, even through the terminal, Mo Chu could still clearly feel it.

With a slight movement of his fingers, Mo Chu added another sentence under the message, “Thank you, everyone, for your consistent support and companionship. I’m grateful!”

Then, this sentence was like an elixir for the netizens who supported Mo Chu, causing their combat strength to soar in an instant! The witty remarks came one after another, bombarding the anti-fans to the point that not even their dregs were left. They did not dare to show their heads again.

Hence, the entire page was left with a wave of comments and concerns, causing the warmth in Mo Chu’s eyes to become even stronger. This happiness of being constantly cared for and protected by others instantly surged into her heart. Her smile became even wider.

Of course, this made it even more obvious that the soldiers nearby were peeking.

“Cough cough!”

Song Hao could not take it anymore. He placed his hand on his mouth and coughed a few times. “Why aren’t you quickly observing Wisdom Cloud Galaxy’s movements?”

What are you looking at? Haven’t you seen a woman before?

With that said, Song Hao looked at the girl who had her head lowered not far away.

She looked as calm as water, yet her entire body seemed to be emitting an aura that could not be ignored. Was this… Mo Chu? The woman who had risen to fame in the past two or three years and was in the limelight for a while?

Apart from the rare light attribute special ability that was rarely seen in a hundred years, there did not seem to be anything special about her! Song Hao rubbed his chin and frowned in confusion. How could she be liked and adored by so many people?

How did the once ostentatious Qiao Family fall to such a state? It definitely could not be separated from Mo Chu’s terrifying popularity! Even when the Qiao Family was publicly judged by the Federation Court, there was also a boost in public opinion. In the end, it still had to fall on Mo Chu’s head!

Song Hao was thinking silently on his side, but the soldiers beside him were not happy.

What?

We’re not allowed to peek, but you’re getting excited?

You dare to cover our sister-in-law? Do you want to die?

The soldier closest to him directly returned the favor. He pretended to cough twice and even glanced at Song Hao a few times.

If it was in the past, this soldier would definitely not dare to do such a thing. It might even be a matter of military punishment. However, there was no doubt that the power of an idol was huge. Now, in order to protect Marshal Ning’s future happiness, he had to be bold!

On the other side, Ning Yiyuan and the S team had successfully met up with the defense personnel of Area A and exchanged information with each other.

“How far away are Wisdom Cloud Galaxy’s people from us?” Ning Yiyuan turned on the communication device and asked softly in a low voice.

“Less than a kilometer,” the soldier replied in a deep voice.

Hearing this, Ning Yiyuan’s eyes could not help but flash. A few movements appeared in his hands. The movements were smooth and efficient. This was a commonly used command gesture in the army. Seeing this, the members of Team S quickly assembled with the 300 defense personnel and automatically divided into three groups. According to Ning Yiyuan’s instructions, they quickly set up an ambush.

Those who were able to participate in this military exercise were all experts in the army. The location of the ambush was also very clever. They just happened to use the environment around them to block their figures. If one did not look carefully, they really would not be discovered!

Ten minutes had passed…

The soldiers who were lying in ambush were still rooted to the spot, not making the slightest movement.

“Pay attention, the enemy is almost here!” The voice from the communication device sounded again.

Hearing this, the people who were lying in ambush held their breaths and waited. Without blinking, they looked at the only path in front of them, tightly holding their energy guns in their hands.

Five minutes later.

The wind blew past, and the branches on both sides rustled. It made the place even quieter and quieter.

… No one.

The large group of people that they had expected did not appear at all!

Huh… everyone could not help but be puzzled. What was going on?

Could it be that the information was wrong? Or could it be that something had happened to the other party and their progress had been delayed?

Subconsciously, everyone turned their gaze to Ning Yiyuan, who was at the front. He was crouching down and hiding in front. When he saw everyone’s puzzled expression, he remained silent. However, his resolute figure gave everyone a measure of support. Thus, the panic that had just risen in everyone’s hearts instantly calmed down.

That’s right, follow Boss’s footsteps. Nothing will happen!

Meanwhile, the command room was already in chaos.

“What’s going on?”

Song Hao suddenly took a few steps forward, his gaze fixed on the cursor on the screen. The cursor that represented Wisdom Cloud Galaxy’s military strength was still flashing, but the person had disappeared without a trace!

“That’s not right! How is this possible? The data clearly shows that…” The soldiers at the side were clearly confused by this scene as well, he widened his eyes in disbelief and lowered his head to look at the data carefully. He muttered, “Could this be the new military decoy from Wisdom Cloud Galaxy’s side? But… how did we not receive any news at all?”

Even he himself could not help but suspect, his brows tightly knitted together!

“Oh no! Wisdom Cloud Galaxy’s military strength has appeared in Area C!” another soldier stood up abruptly and shouted loudly. The screen in front of him was originally calm, but now a cursor appeared!

Damn it!

Song Hao frowned even more and finally understood.

The previous attack in Area A was clearly a trap. The purpose was to divert their army so that their attack would be smoother! Wisdom Cloud Galaxy’s people were too cunning!

Taking a deep breath, Song Hao pulled the communication device by his ear and shouted sternly, “Ning Yiyuan, did you hear that? We’ve fallen into a trap. Come back quickly!”

This kid had previously promised that Wisdom Cloud Galaxy’s side would not attack! They were clearly attacking now, right?

“Fallen into a trap?” Unexpectedly, Ning Yiyuan’s slightly deep voice sounded from the communication device. It was still as calm as a pine tree. “If we retreat now, we’ll really fall into a trap.”

“What do you mean?” Song Hao did not understand what he meant, but that did not stop him from seeing the truth. The current situation was right in front of him, and he had no choice but to believe it. The more he frowned, the angrier Song Hao’s voice became. “Now is not the time for you to fight with me. Ning Yiyuan, hurry up and bring your men back!”

Due to his previous mistake, the Federation’s military strength was already one-third less than Wisdom Cloud Galaxy’s. Ning Yiyuan had also brought a portion of his men away. At this moment, it was inevitable that they would be helpless. If anything happened, none of them could bear this responsibility!

“Do you hear me? Ning Yiyuan! Hurry back! The defense of Area A is meaningless now… Hurry up, hey! Hey!” The situation was pressing, Song Hao’s tone was getting higher and higher. However, before he could finish his sentence, he was cut off by Ning Yiyuan!

This impulsive fellow!

Song Hao slammed his fist on the table! Since he could not command Ning Yiyuan, he could only turn his attention to the others. “Team S, Hurry back! Bring back the 300-strong defense force!”

Hearing Song Hao’s exasperated roar, Team S looked up at the calm and composed Ning Yiyuan and bit their lips. “Aiyo, this, this signal doesn’t seem too good. I can’t hear it clearly!”

Then, they imitated Ning Yiyuan and cut off the conversation.

The rest of the people followed suit, infuriating Song Hao in the command room!

F*ck! Are these brats rebelling? They clearly knew that Area A was already a useless move, yet they still wasted their troops. What’s the use of staying there?

If this military exercise fails, see how I will deal with you guys!

“But… Boss, are we really not going back?” the captain of Team S licked his lips and asked in a low voice. Since the Boss did not say anything, he felt a little uneasy.

“Yes!” Ning Yiyuan turned his head and replied in a low voice. He still maintained his concise manner. “Wait a little longer.”

“Yes, Sir!” Hearing this, the soldiers felt as if they had taken a load off their minds. All of a sudden, they calmed down and looked at Ning Yiyuan with eyes filled with trust. They would do whatever their Boss said!
