Ji Xinghe finally understood why Chen Xun had made a separate mention of close-range cannons before; he was reminding the rest of the Mecha Corps.
Harris, Qin Tong, and the others were not tapped into the Xinghe Squad's communication channel at this time, but given their experience, they would have certainly grasped the meaning of Chen Xun's words.
Highland B72 could be lost, but Ji Xinghe and Han Li must survive.
"I disagree."
Ji Xinghe expressed his opinion after Chen Xun had finished speaking and everyone in the Xinghe Squad had voiced their agreement.
Chen Xun did not maintain a hard stance, but his tone was quite indifferent.
"About many Mech warriors on the verge of becoming an Ace—who were but a dozen Gold Stars away—made the ultimate sacrifice in battle. The actual number of Aces, so far, is only thirty-six."
"You are the thirty-sixth, but Han Li and Jackson are not included in this count because they haven't acquired their personalized Mecha yet."
