Even though the energy emergency lights were on, and the cave was very bright, the students' hearts were darkened.

A few days ago, they were students of Saint Miro Military Academy and they were not afraid of any difficulties. But what if a catastrophe were to occur? There was no time limit on this natural disaster and they were in a very desperate situation.

In the midst of the destructive particle storm from the universe... Not even the school or the Federation could send a rescue ship.

That's when the communicator on Yuan Xi's wrist flickered. He clicked on it. The caller was Luo ShaoTian and the signal was bad. He only heard intermittently that they found a place of refuge, then Luo ShaoTian asked about the situation there.

Yuan Xi took one look at the cave and the students who are looking at him anxiously because of the food shortage. He said, "We're fine here."

Then, the communication was cut off and the students' eyes darkened again. What was the use of talking to someone else? They couldn't expect someone else to send them food.

Yuan Xi talked to the two assistant leaders, Wang Jing and Wu Yong, telling them to count the number of students who had lost their share of food.

It didn't take long and the results were in. There were seventy-three people in the group; twenty-eight mecha fighters and forty-five mecha makers; fifteen had lost their share of food. Most of them were mecha makers who were too slow and too weak to keep up. Their lives were at stake and it was impossible for them to ask the mecha warrior next to them, 'I can't run anymore. Can you help me?'

Luo XiaoLou was ashamed to realize that he hadn't been carrying anything heavy. And what was in Yuan Xi's hand... was not light either. But the awkward man, who was the master of the house, didn't say anything.

You know, when he's at home, he's a complete jerk and he can't wait to have a glass of water handed to him...

Luo XiaoLou was feeling a bit flattered. He admitted that he was too spineless under the oppression...

Yuan Xi and the two assistant team leaders looked at each other, and without changing their expressions said, "There's nothing to worry about. On the way out, Wang Jing was responsible for carrying a month's worth of food for five people. Wu Yong and I carried drinking water. Not much, though. Ten days' worth of food for the rest of us won't be a problem. In a training camp like this... there's no way the school won't have any precautions."

These things were stored in the space buttons of the team leader and assistant team leaders. The average mecha fighter couldn't store much in his space button. They would have limited space to store spare mecha parts or a large number of low-level energy boxes. There would also be room for a small amount of data.

This was common knowledge for almost all mecha warriors so not many of them actually used the space button to store food.

The team leader and the assistant team leaders had to sacrifice something for the team. When they heard the news, Wang Jing and Wu Yong were depressed. He's got more space in his knob than anyone could imagine.

The students were suddenly relieved. They had just been scaring themselves earlier. Even if the storm lasts a month... If we save a little...we'll still have enough food.

Of course, there was not enough for five. Yuan Xi glanced coldly at the food Wang Jing had taken out. He took the month's worth of food that the school had given him and handed it to Wang Jing. But... he didn't touch Luo XiaoLou's food. Wang Jing looked at Yuan Xi with surprise.
