Chapter 286 Helplessness (1st update)
“Hmph, it won’t work this way, that won’t work either, let’s just go back.”
Teacher Tang Xuan said irritably.
"I like to hear this! Just go back when you go back."
Mia shrugged her shoulders and said. Anyway, she has made enough. If she goes back early, she can cash out the money early and sell it at a good price.
"No! Doesn't that mean giving it up? The school invested a lot of money, manpower, material resources, and technology transfer in that mining area before signing a cooperation agreement with the Abaik Kingdom. Now leaving empty-handed, doesn't it mean that all is lost? "
Flick replied very reluctantly.
"Then what are you going to do? People are clearly trying to eat you, what can you do?"
Mia asked with a sigh.
“These guys have gone too far. We have treated them so well by providing money, effort and technology, but they treat us like this. It’s like a white-eyed wolf!”
Teacher Chen Yue cursed very angrily.
"Don't say that. In other people's eyes, those materials produced belong to their family. And we are black-hearted capitalists, why should we give it to us."
Mia directly showed her cards and made it clear. .
Chen Yue and others fell silent one by one after hearing Mia's words.

In the City of Starlight City Lord's Mansion office.
Gackles sat at his desk and asked Secretary Yunrou in a hoarse voice.
"How is the retreat of personnel and materials from neutral countries going?"
"Lord Gackles, the retreat is not going smoothly, and the recovery of many materials is blocked. Moreover, many of us in the occupied country have no We escaped and were detained by the Imperial Army. We are now negotiating, but the situation in the negotiations is not ideal. The Imperial Army is refusing to admit that they have detained us. This is a specific report."
General Yun Rou. A very thick report document was placed respectfully on the table.
"I understand."
Gackles looked at the report document Yunrou put in front of him, showing a very tired look.
Yunrou looked at this scene and said hesitantly.
"Lord Gackles, can I ask you a question?"
"Ask it!"
"The Imperial Army is so arrogant, neutral countries continue to ask us for help, and our people are also filled with indignation. Why doesn't the Federation send troops?"
"Fight? How to fight? The hearts of the Federation are simply divided now, like a piece of loose sand. Everyone has their own calculations, and no one agrees with anyone! Do you think I can mobilize the other two cities, District 16, and the other nine planets? "
Gackles asked directly. .
Yunrou was also slightly startled.
Gackles then continued to speak to Yunrou.
"Sigh~ Taking a step back, even if the people are really united, do you think they can definitely win? Those neutral countries are either useless, or their defenses are extremely poor! The federal troops go out to fight the imperial army, If we lose, the army will be on the verge of defeat, and then the Federation will be completely in danger! Even if we are lucky and win, you may have forgotten that the Imperial Army is not the only one in this world, the Apocalypse Kingdom is still there to watch. I believe they are willing to sit back and wait until we and the Imperial Army are both defeated before attacking us. I can't make the decision on this matter, and I don't have the ability to make the decision now! What should we do? "
"What else can we do, of course, is to recover resources and stick to our homeland. Our only advantage now is to rely on the Black Flame Star defense line for local operations."
"But it won't work if it goes on like this!"
"Of course I know it won't work. Now I can only delay time and wait for the President of the Council to wake up. Only the President of the Council has enough prestige to lead the entire federation to solve the dilemma. .”
When Gackles said this, he also missed the days when the Parliament Chief was here. Even if the sky were broken at that time, he would not be as scared, anxious, or confused as he is now.
"Then when will the Council Leader wake up?"
"I don't know either."
When Gackles said this, his whole person seemed to become older. .
Three days later.
Inside Hangar No. 1 of the Red Fang.
Su Ming stood in front of the Lancer and watched the students from the Mechanical Maintenance Department performing maintenance on the Lancer.
"Wow! What a big chicken rack!"
Katini followed her mother over and pointed at the gun knight excitedly and shouted.
"It's a mecha, not a chicken stand." Su Ming corrected with a smile.
"Hmm, big brother, does this chicken stand belong to you?"
"Yes!"
"It's awesome, if I can drive it too Okay, then I can protect my mother."
Katini looked at Su Ming with admiration.
"When you grow up, you can learn."
Su Ming smiled and touched Katini's little head.
At this moment, Mia came over, breathing heavily and holding a bottle of wine in her hand.
When Hailan saw Mia coming, she quickly took Katini’s hand and said softly.
"Katini, let's go play nearby and don't disturb Big Brother and the others."
"Okay!"
Katini obediently followed her mother and went to play nearby.
Su Ming turned to look at Mia and greeted with a smile.
"Teacher, what time is it?"
"There is no class today, so no matter what time it is."
Mia took a sip of wine and replied.
"Okay, by the way, teacher. What to do with this Lancer? They haven't recycled it either."
Su Ming quickly asked Mia.
“This Lancer belongs to you. I have asked someone to secretly add this mecha to the boarding record list, which is equivalent to the one you brought on board. As for the Iron Guard, I will report it directly. Damaged!"
Mia replied simply.
"Great!"
Hearing Mia's words, Su Ming couldn't help but extend his thumb and replied.
"Okay, don't forget to treat me to a drink later."
Mia said very freely.
"Definitely, but teacher, I have lost the main weapon of this mecha. In order to use the mechanical launcher, I had to throw away the long gun. Is there any way you can help me get a weapon?"
"You lost your spear, which is a bit troublesome. And the mechanical nail gun in your mecha's hand is useless without the matching spear."
"Yes, so I I just wanted to ask you."
"I don't have any other options. You probably have to pay for another one, but the spear that comes with the Lancer is not cheap. I remember that one costs 100 million federal coins. !”
“So expensive?”
Su Ming felt a little sad when he heard the price.
"You know it hurts, but you just threw away 100 million federal coins."
"There was nothing we could do at the time."
"That's right, just use it and wait. Let’s talk about it back to the academy.”
“Okay, but what’s going on now, teacher? Didn’t you say that we would transfer the supplies as soon as we arrived at the Abaik Kingdom and then leave immediately? There is no movement at all, and we are not allowed to get off the boat."
"Don't mention it, something happened."
Mia replied angrily.
“What happened?”
Su Ming asked curiously after hearing Mia’s words.
