Once the scouts were deployed, the troops stopped to rest. The youths also got out of their mechanical spirit weapons to take a break as the weapon was narrow and tight fitting. It was easy to be fatigue if they remained inside it for long. During rest time, they would often get out of the weapon to take a breather.
In groups of three or four, the guys formed a small circle while their mechanical spirit weapons formed a larger circle behind them. If they were to be ambushed, it would be faster to re-enter their weapons to fight.
The majestic Sky Tiger sat on the floor as Bing sat on the Sky Tiger’s shoulder as he rested his back leaning on its head, smoking his cigarette.
The sounds from the youths flowed with the wind as they entered into Bing’s ears.
Bing smoked in silence. Thinking about it, the cigarettes were left behind by Screw. A warm smile appeared on his face.
When Bing first entered the army, Screw would always come over and encourage him every time Bing was about to enter a battle.
But Screw was special…
Screw exclaimed: “Hey little fella, don’t you dare lose. If you lose and snivel, that will truly be humiliating.”
The youngster raged: “Screw, don’t you dare belittle me!”
Screw cast a glance at the youngster: “I am afraid that you would ruin my mechanical weapon and that I would need to help you repair it again and again. I still remember your first defeat. You did not put in your utmost during that fight yeah!”
The youngster’s face grew red as he shouted back: “It will not happen this time!”
“Ha ha, you are ambitious! However, your life is important little fella. Don’t you die.”
“Tsk! Screw you are an imbecile!”
“Ha ha, you will definitely not die! If you die, I will give the mechanical weapon to someone else. You will be so angry that you will come back from the dead.”
……
These black and white images lingered in his mind. In front of him unknowingly, his eyes were moist. As he looked up towards the sky. His smile grew even wider. Hidden behind the smoke, he laughed.
Don’t worry Screw. I will definitely win this war. Even if I do lose, I would meet Ah Xin and we would have a great time together.
Ah Xin would surely say, hey little fella, you haven’t bettered yourself since 10,000 years ago.
Screw, it has been 10,000 years.
I miss the Commander. I really do. He is definitely still alive. Yes, definitely! If he were to die so easily, how could he be our commander?
Bing gazed silently into the sky.
The passionate discussion among the youths broke Bing’s trance.
“Hey Xiao Wu, you better show off your skills. Who is this Jones, How can this Jones be on par with you?”
“You are right. Xiao Wu all the best. I hate the Honorable Martial Group the most. I remembered that time when they showed off their military might arrogantly at the Lupus Constellation. We will not lose to them again!”
“Big Sister Sai Lei has said, whoever puts in the most effort would be given a tailored made mechanical spirit weapon.”
“Ahahah, Xiao Wu, I shall not give you any chance today! I want a new mechanical spirit weapon!”
……
Bing turned around as he looked on at the passionate bunch of youths, leaving a big smile on his face. These youths were a strong bunch. Screw and Ah Xin, you guys would have been happy if you saw them….
Bing’s expression suddenly turned solemn.
Screw, I will definitely find a way to treat you and bring you to see Ah Xin. And we should also go and find Commander. We should also restore and rebuild the Southern Cross Army!
How can our military flag be down? How can our war cry be dissipated?
We have a lot more companions now. There will be even more in the future.
Don’t underestimate me!
Bing stood up and leaped onto Sky Tiger’s shoulder, puffing his cigarette on his hand. He looked onto the horizon solemnly.
Suddenly, he could see something at the corner of his eye. Hey, could that be intelligence?
Xiao Wu and his gang noticed Bing moving over. They stopped their discussion and rushed over.
“Oh, they wish to battle with us?” Bing somehow found joy in this.
“Master, this is a good opportunity! We can display our strength and power against them, victory against them scoundrels in Honorable Martial Group will make them think twice when fighting us! We need to beat them so bad that they will fear us!”
Yao was the one who spoke. He had a head of luscious silver hair.
Xiao Wu, Yao and Ah Lun were the three most outstanding youths from Sky Martial Wolf Academy. Xiao Wu was calm and composed; Ah Lun was unflustered but aggressive, and was occasionally stubborn, while Yao was lively and extroverted, yet a little inflexible.
The three of them were currently hailed as the Sky Martial Three Paragons.
“It is not that I am belittling you all.” Bing exclaimed: “Even though the Red Leaf Army is new, but they also have the Honorable Martial Group’s 10th Gold Branch Palace as their backbone. You are just a bunch of rookies, what do you have to fight with them?”
Yao showed his displeasure: “But Master, aren’t you now looking down on us?”
Bing let out a huge laughter as he looked at the other two: “What do you guys think?”
Xiao Wu thought about it: “With the help of the Cang Yang Fighting Grounds, we now own the advantage in favourable grounds. There is no need for us to engage them. Furthermore, the opposition has an advantage over us in the quality of soldiers. If we were to battle them, it will not be good for us, and we will not be able to present our advantage.”
Ah Lun replied: “I agree with Xiao Wu.”
“Hey hey hey, you two…”
