Seeing Sima Qian, Edward was stunned on the spot.
Anton walked between Edward and Dmitri and said sternly: "HER may come back at any time! Either you help clear the refugees' plates, or else...eh? Are you listening?"
Anton noticed that Edward was distracted and waved his hand in front of his eyes. Seeing that he didn't respond, he came over to see what the kid was looking at and disconnected from the Internet. But in front of Edward were the refugees gathered. Anton didn't understand what Edward was looking at, so he pushed Edward.
"Did your WIFI cut off?"
Edward was pushed and staggered, and then his spirit returned to his original position. He looked at Sima Qian, then turned to look at Anton, pointed at Sima Qian and asked, "Is this sister also a crew member of the Osiris?"
"Yes, reporters who insist on boarding the ship."
At this time, Sima Qian's assistant Thucydides came over with a big bag on his back. Sima Qian saw that he was very tired and wanted to help share the burden. Unexpectedly, Edward stepped forward and snatched it from Sima Qian's hand. The bag shocked her.
Edward smiled and said, "Hey, let us men do this kind of hard work. What's your surname?"
Edward had just had a fight with Demetri, and there were still bruises and blood on his face. With this attitude, he smiled at Sima Qian, which frightened Sima Qian and made her take half a step back.
"Eh? Well, my surname is Sima, Sima Qian."
"Are you from East Asia? Simaqian? What a great name! Is your sister a reporter? I have always admired journalists!"
Sima Qian replied awkwardly: "Ah...yes."
Sima Qian and the others wanted to return to the Osiris, and Edward followed them in a hurry. All this was seen by Sergeant Anton. He scratched his chin and raised the corners of his mouth slightly.
…
"Huh? The pilot of Unit 3 is on board?" Captain Shepard was surprised when he heard Jessica's report.
Half an hour ago, the Osiris left some supplies for the New York refugees and headed towards New Jersey. Some refugees who were willing to get on the ship took the initiative to work as handymen on the ship, and Edward actually got on the ship inexplicably among the refugees.
Jessica: "Yes, his humanoid weapons are also on board."
"Does he want us to give him a ride or does he want to join us?"
"I don't know, Sergeant Anton is negotiating with him. Captain, are you confident that the people who attacked the Osiris will board the ship or even join us?"
Captain Shepard thought for a while: "Didn't we cooperate with the new EU that attacked us before? It's a good thing to have multiple combat capabilities on the ship. Just let Anton keep an eye on it."
Jessica nodded and looked at the wheelchair Shepard was sitting in uneasily.
"What's wrong?" Shepard asked.
"Captain, why are you in a wheelchair again?"
"Oh, you care about this." Shepard patted the wheelchair and said, "I'm getting older. This thing is electric, which can save some effort."
"Take care of your health, Captain. I see that your health has been out of shape since you last fell ill."
Shepard waved his hand: "It's okay, don't think too much, I'm fine. If there's nothing else to report, I'll go to bed."
…
Anton entered the hangar with two songs in his pockets and a nonchalant Edward. Seeing that the Xingmei humanoid weapons "lifeguards" were displayed in the hangar, Edward snorted disdainfully, but he saw No. 2 The machine behind the machine couldn't help but stopped on its own.
"What's wrong?" Anton asked when he saw that he didn't follow him.
"Is this the one we played on in the city yesterday?"
"That's right."
"Is it okay to just leave it parked in the hangar?"
"Ah?" Anton didn't know what Edward wanted.
Edward pointed at Unit 2: "Isn't this the livery of the New Republic of Gran Colombia in South America? They are allies of HER, are you so relieved?"
Anton shook his head: "You just rely on painting to distinguish the faction to which humanoid weapons belong? Let me tell you, this is Ten Swords Unit 2, and like your Unit 3, it was made by the Moore Chamber of Commerce. Stop talking nonsense and come here. Bar."
"Huh? Why do I also have a laser knife on this thing? It's so ugly that I look like a villain at first glance."
"Stop it, come on!"
Edward still had something to ask, but he was dragged by Anton to where Unit 3 was parked. At this time, Lin Ao also walked over sleepily. When he saw the No. 3 machine he had fought with yesterday suddenly appearing in the hangar, he was immediately frightened and woke up. He pointed at Captain No. 3 and hesitated, wanting to ask Anton what was going on. Anton pulled Edward over and said:
"Lin Ao, this is Edward Terras, the pilot of Ten Swords Unit 3. Edward, this is Lin Ao, the pilot of Unit 2."
Lin Ao's mouth opened wider, and when Edward saw Lin Ao, he suddenly stopped. He tidied his messy hair with his hands, bent down and saluted, "I was so rude yesterday. I didn't expect that a beautiful girl like you could drive a humanoid weapon."
Anton and Lin Ao said in unison: "Huh???"
Seeing their strange reactions, Edward raised his head and looked at Lin Ao carefully and suspiciously. Then Lin Ao had an Adam's apple and was embarrassed for a moment, but his attitude was not as polite as before.
Lin Ao asked Anton: "Why are the enemies on the ship?"
Anton coughed: "We will no longer be enemies from now on. Edward volunteered to join the Osiris."
Lin Ao looked at Edward awkwardly, then hesitantly stretched out his hand. Edward held his hand and said to himself: "It's really not a woman's hand..."
Lin Ao asked: "What are you?"
"It's nothing, nothing. Let's get along well from now on."
Anton patted them both on the shoulders: "Originally, the Osiris only had ten humanoid weapons. My Baibu and Lin Ao's No. 2 machine were all supernumeraries who joined later. They were too few to form a team. But now we don't It’s the same, after Edward joins, we can form a team of 3 for easy scheduling.”
Lin Ao asked: "Team of three? Does this mean we will be Team C from now on?"
Anton shook his head: "No, no, no, after all, he is also the captain of both teams A and B. Team C feels downgraded. I thought about it, from now on we will be Team Z of the Osiris Humanoid Weapon!"
Lin Ao: "Isn't that lower than C..."
"No, no, no, think about it. Team A, Team B and Team Z. Outsiders will definitely think that Team Z is unusual."
Edward pushed away Anton's hand on his shoulder and said impatiently: "It doesn't matter what you call it. I just want to ask one thing, if you are the captain, then who has the higher rank between me and Lin...Lin Ao?"
Anton: "It's Lin Ao. Only the former Covenant soldiers on the Osiris have military ranks. You two enjoy the standard treatment of humanoid weapon pilots. There is no military rank and no superiority."
Edward stretched and breathed: "It doesn't matter, but you must do what you promised me!"
Lin Ao asked Anton curiously: "What did you promise him?"
Anton smiled awkwardly and did not answer.
