Chapter 79 She is mine

The first battlefield base is located in the outer border area.

Inside a suspended data control room.

Several officers and data clerks stood to one side, each with a helpless expression on their face.

Because right ahead, in front of the data control console, two figures were frantically searching through secret data from the battlefield.

“Respected Mr. Theo, we have submitted our data request to the temple. We ask that you wait a little longer. We are just following orders.” An officer said. If it had been two savage beasts that rushed in, they would have already killed them. But the young man in front of them was of extraordinary status. Although he was not one of their legions, they dared not be negligent.

The boy in front of the data station didn't even look at him. Instead, he was carefully scanning the battle animation in front of him, as if he didn't want to miss any detail in the trajectory.

"Oh? You're asking for instructions?"

Theo's voice was calm: "If he doesn't approve, does that mean I can't investigate?"

Jiang Nuo sat to the side, following the boy's finger to write down the key clues in a small notebook. The two worked together very well.

"This..." The officer was speechless.

The girl's soft voice rang out: "I heard that when the major legions sought technical support from the Virtual Star Nation, they agreed very quickly. Now they're just here to check some data, and it's all for the sake of saving people. The legions wouldn't be so stingy, would they?"

Upon hearing this, the people in the data room exchanged bewildered glances, as if they hadn't expected that this beautiful female, who appeared timid and delicate, would speak with such sharpness.

"Nuonuo, look."

Theo ignored those people and tapped a route map on the screen in front of him with his finger, clearly having noticed something was wrong.

Jiang Nuo looked in that direction and said, "Strange, Phil's route is to go deep into the Savage Starfield, but why would he do that? If it's just to defend against the invasion of Savage Beasts, there's no need for him to do so."

To resist invasion, defensive barriers are established directly outside the major battlefields in the desolate star field. Whenever a beast horde riots, troops are organized to kill them.

“Phil’s operation this time was proactive. His route was very clear, almost a straight line, heading straight for the inner center of the battlefield.” Theo lowered his eyes in thought: “I think there may be something there, and Phil must bring it out.”

After the boy finished speaking, the officers and data clerks next to him all lowered their heads, as if the other party had guessed some secret.

"Do you have some kind of secret mission?"

"..."

A few seconds passed, but no one answered.

Jiang Nuo frowned slightly, somewhat anxious. Her slender white fingers gripped the hem of her skirt, and a bad premonition welled up in her heart.

Seemingly sensing the girl's worry, Theo reached out and put his arm around her slender white neck, letting her lean gently on his shoulder.

He then said to the officer beside him, “First, with foreign enemies at hand and the Federation united, you have no reason not to trust me. Although military orders are absolute, there are some things that can be done first and reported later, unless you don’t want Phil to come back alive.”

The last half of the sentence sent a chill down everyone's spine.

"Secondly, you know how much control my Virtual Star Nation has over data. Although the battlefield data room is independently operated by your legion, it wouldn't be difficult for me to infiltrate and crack it if I wanted to. What do you say?"

This sentence is full of threat.

In other words: You can't hide anything from me that I want to know.

"Your Excellency, you flatter me."

Several officers shook their heads. If the virtual star nation really used technical means to infiltrate and crack their system, their data room would probably be paralyzed.

Of course, in order to jointly resist foreign enemies, they believed that the other side would not actually do such a thing.

My words were merely a reminder; to press them further would be tantamount to being out of touch with reality. As for the Temple, we can only act first and report later.

"Your deduction was correct. The general did indeed lead a team of a hundred men deep into the inner perimeter of the desolate star field on a secret mission."

The officer paused after speaking, then glanced at Jiang Nuo intentionally or unintentionally, as if he wanted to say something but hesitated.

Theo narrowed his eyes slightly: "Go on."

"Uh……"

The officer hesitated: "I wonder if you could dismiss this lady so I can give you a more detailed report, since this mission... is classified."

As soon as she finished speaking, Jiang Nuo stood up. At this moment, she was not an ignorant person. If the other party really refused to tell the truth because of her, and delayed the rescue of Phil, it would definitely be a loss.

"Theo, I'll go outside and wait for you."

Just as Jiang Nuo was about to walk out, she felt her wrist being tightly gripped by the boy, who refused to let go.

With just a slight exertion, her delicate body fell into his arms, and at the same time, a pair of large hands pressed down on her waist, firmly restraining her and preventing her from getting up and moving around.

Jiang Nuo was somewhat bewildered, but she saw the boy's domineering and unyielding gaze fixed on the officer beside him: "She is my person."

A few simple words warmed the girl's heart.

"But--"

"I'll take responsibility if anything happens."

The officer's voice was abruptly interrupted, the boy's voice chilling: "Furthermore, no one is allowed to disrespect her again, otherwise..."

Theo paused for a moment at this point.

Everyone in the data room was stunned. Even Jiang Nuo blinked her innocent eyes, unable to guess what the boy was going to say next.

Theo smirked as he looked at the girl in his arms, who was staring blankly. He affectionately flicked Jiang Nuo's forehead, but the touch was very light. He then continued, "I will hit people."

"..."

"..."

Upon hearing this, everyone around them froze in shock.

But at the same time, fear also flashed in their eyes, because most of them were clerical staff in the legion, and when it came to fighting, they would definitely be the ones getting beaten up.

Theo was very satisfied with everyone's reaction. He adjusted his silver glasses and a very refined smile appeared on his lips.

Because he remembered that the last time he and Xuan Yan were arguing, Nuonuo was secretly laughing at him from the side.

Therefore, he should try his best to maintain his "good manners".

"I'm sorry, Miss Female!"

The officer who had just spoken those words to Jiang Nuo reacted extremely quickly. He stepped forward, bowed, and said, "I apologize for my rudeness just now. Please forgive me!"

Seeing the officer's face change so quickly, Jiang Nuo was both amused and exasperated, but she didn't pursue the matter further: "It's alright, you're just being cautious. Let's talk about Phil, what is his secret mission this time?"

Returning to the topic, the officer's expression was much more solemn than before: "It is an entity of informational matter. Its shape and material are currently unknown, but according to the previous research by the technical team, this thing is definitely related to the large-scale battlefield that has recently broken out."
