Good fortune never comes in pairs, while misfortune never comes singly.
Ji Xinghe had come to understand this harsh reality some time ago. Life had just returned to normal at Base 5, when the bad news arrived.
"Colonel Ji Xinghe, please accept our condolences."
It was a message of sacrifice.
Xiao Fubai, Guo Yingcai, and Wang Tian, first-level mecha warriors who had joined the Xinghe Squad for half a month, were killed in action.
The Xinghe Squad had yet to reach its full quota after the expansion, and already they were facing a reduction.
Upon hearing this news, Ji Xinghe's face was expressionless, his eyes showed no sadness, as if he didn't care about the life and death of these three members of the Xinghe Squad, these Federation first-level mecha warriors at all.
But those around him didn't find it strange, but instead, found it relieving.
