Editor: Sulo has a crush on Luo ShaoTian (｡・//ε//・｡)

On the 17th day, Yuan Xi decided they should move forward, now that they were sure they could protect the mecha makers when the bug beasts came, and find a safe place to rest before nightfall.

That way they could find both their target, the information collector, and rendezvous with the other groups.

Luo XiaoLou was finally able to speak to Tian Li in the last two days, but after a few sentences, Tian Li yelled, "Luo XiaoLou, you're still alive, right? But with Yuan Xi and Yates there, even if you're weak you should be fine."

"...I remember you're also a mecha maker and not a combatant, right?" Luo XiaoLou returned.

"Hey, don't say that. Even if we are both mecha makers, I'd still be in better shape than you. When the bug beasts came, I was the only one in my group who was strong and ran as fast as I could." Tian Li laughed from the other end of the communicator.

"I think you can only reach your potential when you are running for your life." Luo XiaoLou packed his things and rested against the rock wall, a sarcastic smile on his face. They would soon be out of this damn cave.

"Ahem. If it wasn't for the genetic rank, I'd be a natural mecha warrior. Aye, this C+ genetic rank. I could've been a B- if I'd gone to the Mecha Department. I would've even been a great fighter by now." Tian Li said.

Luo XiaoLou shuddered and cut him off. "Stop it. You said you were fat, and now you're already panting. Is everything okay over there?"

Tian Li's voice suddenly became very loud, and after a while, he said, "Nothing. It's just that we don't have enough food, but it's all because of our team leader that we're surviving. If he falls, we'll all be dead. Let's be honest. This training wasn't for nothing. If I have the chance to do it again, I'll still work for Team Leader Luo.'

"Luo ShaoTian?" whispered Luo XiaoLou.

"Mhmm. Team Leader Luo may have a temper, but he's a real man. By the way, you're both named Luo, why are you so far different?" Tian Li praised Luo XiaoLou for a long time, but he didn't forget to say a few words about him.

Luo XiaoLou was stunned, then said, "How can I compare with him?"

"Well, your only merit is that you know what you're doing. That's enough. I don't want to talk to you, we have to continue moving again." Tian Li cursed and, from the sound of his voice, seemed to have started moving.

Luo XiaoLou frowned. The thought of the Luo family made him uncomfortable by instinct. Of course, Luo ShaoTian had the least amount of interaction with him.

Luo XiaoLou rubbed his brow and turned off the communicator. Then he saw Yuan Xi watching him from the cave entrance.

"We'll be leaving soon." Yuan Xi said calmly without asking who he was just in contact with.

Luo XiaoLou nodded. He had most of his things with Yuan Xi, and except for a few storage boxes he carried with himself, a short-range particle gun given to him by Yuan Xi was all that was left.

"Remember to activate the energy shield if anything happens. I'll be with you when the bug beasts aren't around. No need to worry." Yuan Xi said again, looking at Luo Xiaolou's pale face.

Did Yuan Xi think he was afraid? Luo XiaoLou blinked and said, "Of course, don't worry. I won't embarass you."

Yuan Xi stared at him, his face exasperated. Finally, he said fiercely, "You've already embarrassed me enough. I'm used to it. I mean, if you're in danger, you can come to me!"
