Chapter 452: Chapter 120 Mid-game Break_1
The shadow of a massive creature appears on the big screen.
Though its full shape isn’t clear, not knowing what this thing is, but from its outline alone, it can be seen that this thing is not to be trifled with.
It is not something that a level 3 Nest and a level 5 Nest can compete with.
Even if the “Light of Annihilation” hits it, it might not even qualify as a minor itching sensation.
Compared to it, the “Cloud Rainbow” interstellar battleship is just as a grain of sand in front of an elephant.
No need to step on it, just a breath is enough.
The ant probably couldn’t survive either.
Although this statement seems a bit exaggerated, once this massive creature launches an attack, the “Cloud Rainbow” and the mini legion on it will face a deadly crisis.
As of the moment the massive creature appears, this mission can be declared over.
It’s not a failure, since there’s still plenty of evidence that the mini legion has indeed examined out the insect-ecological structure, abnormalities, and their causes in the mission world.
They can even provide evidence that would embarrass the departments under the Supreme Council.
But neither can this mission be considered a success.
Because they have to shamefully escape from the large creature’s hands and survive so there can be a next step.
A runner, how can they claim success?
“Don’t run!”
Seeing this scene, Sandra’s expression was especially grave. After seriously thinking about it, she spoke succinctly.
As the words fell, she closed her eyes, inhaled deeply, and leaned back. Her well-being suddenly seemed to wane.
She just wants to test herself, align her thoughts with the comrades she valued, establish common perceptions, and try to assess and recruit some new comrades.
Why did it became so complicated when the task progressed smoothly to the halfway point?
No waves without wind.
There must be a reason, right?
So, what is the reason?
“You guys go out for a while, I need to take care of some personal matters.”
Sandra opened her eyes, her tone was quite tired, lack the enthusiasm she had when she proposed three additional objectives at the meeting.
After Link, Round Face Youth, Golden Wave, and Crew Cut Brother left the cockpit.
Tower Spirit, kindly closed the cabin door, activated the sound-proofing barrier, and checked for eavesdropping and recording devices.
Sandra ordered: “Contact Lady Lisandra.”
“Yes.”
Tower Spirit immediately contacted the primary emergency contact.
“Oh, my dear daughter, so busy and you suddenly remember your poor old mother who had nobody to accompany her, I’m so happy.”
A stunning face with no cosmetics appeared on the big screen, her every smile and frown captivated hearts.
Just that her manner of speaking and demeanor were really exaggerated.
“Lady Lisandra, please explain the events that happened during your daughter’s mission.”
Sandra, forcing herself to be energetic, her face stern, seriously questioned.
“What happened? Was there an accident? Oh my God.”
A look of panic and worry appeared on Lisandra’s beautiful face, “Did my dear daughter get hurt? This is… really… worrying.”
Sandra rolled her eyes: “Can you not use that tone when talking to me? Please, I’m your daughter, not your handsome and earth-shaking husband who fills your heart and eyes.”
“Oh ho ho ho….”
Lisandra covered her mouth and giggled, “Is my lovely daughter jealous? Mua… give you a kiss, mommy loves you the most, baby.”
“Be serious!”
Sandra slammed the armrest of the chair, “I’m talking about a serious matter.”
“You say!”
Lisandra seemed to be frightened, quickly straightened her face, and put on a solemn demeanor.
“Is it your doing that caused all these incidents?”
Sandra unreservedly questioned, “Do you just want me to suffer setbacks, to realize that I can’t accomplish anything on my own, right?”
Listening to these words, Lisandra no longer mocked her daughter, but a cold smile appeared at the corners of her mouth:
“It seems my dear daughter still doesn’t get what mom means.
The point mom is making is that without family resources and support, you’ll face too many setbacks and difficulties if you want to accomplish something.
The rise from the grass-roots level isn’t as easy as it seems.
Perhaps the process may be epic and full of heroism, which people aspire to.
But have you ever considered how many hardships, pain, and separations are included in this process?”
Pausing, Lisandra mocked:
“Also, do you consider the power holders of those large families in the academy as fools who can’t see the ratio of sages for the past fifty years?
Do you think they could develop their families to the present scale without brains?
Do you think the reason they allow the younger generation of the family to loaf around in comfort is what?
Think carefully about that.
The world is not what you think it is!”
Sandra avoided her gaze, unconsciously avoiding these issues. Instead, she asked aggressively: “I just want to ask you, is it your doing that caused all these unexpected events during my mission?”
“Even if it was me.”
Lisandra casually nodded, “What about it then?”
“How could you be like that!”
Sandra shouted, her anger spurting forth.
“Why can’t I be like that? You are my daughter, you can be willful and naive, but as your mother, I can’t slap you awake and prevent you from rushing ahead on a misguided road until you finally walk into the abyss?”
“You’re too much! You’ve never considered my feelings!”
