At this moment, the situation on Lin Fu’s side was far from ideal. Although she had estimated the combat capability of the prisoners on Helheim Star very highly, the actual fight still took her by surprise.
They were like mad dogs, entirely different from how Military Academy Students fought.
Fighting with all they had, without any tricks.
The kind of deliberate humiliation that was characteristic of Venus was completely absent; there was no delay of even a second if they could kill earlier.
After dragging Purple Moon along to eliminate the last enemy, Lin Fu stepped over the fresh blood on the ground and walked step by step toward the wooden house. The closer she got, the uglier her expression became.
She kicked the door open.
Inside, the scene was like hell.
Two naked women lay on the ground, their eyes wide open in death, surrounded by their torn clothes scattered everywhere.
Judging by the insignia, they were representatives from a small Star System’s Military Academy.
She had noticed during the live broadcast that this Military Academy hadn’t had the chance to participate in the freshman competition for many years. This year, however, a pair of outstanding sisters had fought their way through and secured the qualification for their school.
Now, these sisters had been humiliated to death by the prisoners on Helheim Star.
Lin Fu’s eyes turned red with rage, feeling an indescribable flame furiously pounding in her heart, as if it wanted to burn up the moist and cold climate of Helheim Star entirely.
The cold wind howled, the temperature at forty degrees below zero, chilling to the bone as it blew against Lin Fu.
But all of this was nothing compared to the coldness in her heart.
Lin Fu stepped forward, gently closed the sisters’ wide-open eyes, and took a white bag out of a backpack carelessly thrown in the corner, into which she then placed the sisters.
This was standard military equipment; every serving soldier had one in their backpack.
It was for their own bodies in case of sacrifice. However, the officers always complained that this thing was hardly used at all—interstellar combat left no bodies behind, blowing them up like fireworks. If they were lucky, their identity tags would be preserved, storing the most important information they left behind.
After Lin Fu had dealt with the situation in the wooden house, the others finally came looking for her.
One glance inside and there was nothing they didn’t understand. ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ novel✦fire.net
They wanted to comfort Lin Fu but didn’t know what to say.
Lin Fu quickly composed herself. "Take them back to camp. Has everyone else been searched and rescued?"
"The search within a hundred kilometers is complete. We found two of our students, seven from other schools, and fifteen bodies," Ivan’s voice was so calm that it betrayed no emotion.
"Then let’s go back!"
Nothing happened on the way back to camp. The flyer skimmed the ground, and by the time they reached camp, they found their side had moved even closer to the First Military Command Military Academy’s camp.
There were white bags lined up outside the camp.
Lin Fu knew what they were.
Everyone came out of the tents, and after some brief exchanges, Lin Fu entered her own tent. Hardly had she sat down when Ye Fei came in.
Seeing Ye Fei made Lin Fu’s eyebrows twitch.
"You shouldn’t have come." The survival chances for Ye Fei, who was specialized in logistics, were too slim here.
Ye Fei just shrugged off the concern. "Then you’re wrong. There’s no should or shouldn’t. Are logistics specialists absolutely safe? Not at all! Once you choose to be a soldier, there’s no absolute safety. Even Imperial Admirals can fall in battle!"
"You make sense," Lin Fu smiled with a sense of relief. "Thank you."
