Chapter 230 Super Soldier Company—Ge Xiaolun's Social Death

"rose!"

Ge Xiaolun caught up with Du Qiangwei.

Logically speaking, the two of them didn't interact much.

The two sides only interacted during actual combat training and operations, and never met at other times, but for some reason, they just wanted to talk to each other.

"What's wrong?" Du Qiangwei asked through the dark communication, slowing down her flight speed.

"Ah? Well... well... I noticed you've been looking a bit down lately, so I thought... we're comrades, so I... wanted to check on you..."

Du Qiangwei's sudden reply left Ge Xiaolun speechless for a moment, stammering and unsure of what to say.

"I am fine."

Although Du Qiangwei was a woman of few words, her expression softened, perhaps because Ge Xiaolun was the only person besides Lianfeng and her group who cared about her.

However, Ge Xiaolun's words reminded her of her father, Dukao, and she fell into decline again.

Upon seeing this, Ge Xiaolun was at a loss, after all, his original intention was just to comfort Du Qiangwei.

While accompanying Du Qiangwei on her mission, Ge Xiaolun was once again at a loss for words.

After thinking for a while, he recalled the things he usually talked about when he drank, boasted, and joked with Liu Chuang and Zhao Xin, and he cheered himself up in his heart.

"Um... Rose, how about we go out for a stroll after the mission is over?" Finally, Ge Xiaolun mustered up the courage to extend the invitation.

An unnatural flush even appeared on her face.

"Ok?"

Du Qiangwei understood the meaning behind the invitation without even having to think about it.

"Oh? What are you planning to do?"

Du Qiangwei smiled, revealing a subtle, almost imperceptible smile. Perhaps she herself hadn't realized that she was inexplicably anticipating something.

"Huh? It's just... it's just..."

Upon being asked this question, Ge Xiaolun's face flushed red, but then he lowered his head.

It's obvious that it's wilted again.

Seeing that he couldn't utter a sound after a long time, and noticing his flushed face, Du Qiangwei suddenly felt a surge of anger and slapped him in mid-air, making Ge Xiaolun's head spin.

"Go eat by yourself!" Du Qiangwei said, then used the micro-wormhole to leave the spot, leaving Ge Xiaolun at a loss.

"Not... a rose? A rose?!"

Ge Xiaolun hurriedly called out over the communicator, but received no response from either the naked eye or the communication system. Ge Xiaolun panicked instantly.

I was just about to use my location to find Du Qiangwei, but then I remembered that I was on a mission and didn't dare to make any sudden moves.

Little did they know, Ge Xiaolun had not switched to a private channel during all of this.

In other words, Ge Xiaolun spoke almost in front of the entire army during the conversation just now.

Sure enough, Zhao Xin's cheeky voice came through the intercom: "Hey~~ Let's go for a stroll together~~"

"...Master Xin?"

Ge Xiaolun suddenly realized something was wrong and instinctively spoke up.

"It's me!" Zhao Xin's powerful voice rang out, and Ge Xiaolun knew he was doomed!

"Oh dear! What are you doing, Master Xin? You've really embarrassed Xiao Lun!"

That distinctive, thick accent undoubtedly belongs to Liu Chuang.

"Hey, I have to say, our Academician Ge is really good at chasing girls."

At this time, some soldiers who had some free time also joined in the fun.

After all, Ge Xiaolun had used covert communication to add a link to the helmets of every soldier, so that, apart from private channels, they were basically shared by everyone.

"That's what you call having a real skill! It's absolutely earth-shattering!"

"Hey, don't talk nonsense! Academician Ge is just playing hard to get!"

"Academician Ge, our Captain Du is not one to be swayed by either soft or hard tactics. He's been chased before in the army, but he always got a good beating!"

"Hey, Academician Ge, don't listen to Xiao Li's nonsense. Our Captain Du is just soft-hearted. He should apologize properly and try again. Maybe it will work!"

"Oh dear, who knows, I might die if I try it, haha~ (￣▽￣～)~"

"Hey~ Little Li, you did this on purpose, didn't you!"

"Haha~ (￣▽￣～)~"

"Hey, Xiao Lun, don't be discouraged. Pursuing a girl requires a gradual approach, take it slow..."

Cheng Yaowen joined in, and although he sounded like he was trying to comfort her, the suppressed tone in his words clearly showed that Cheng Yaowen was also holding back his feelings.

Ge Xiaolun had no interest in what the channel was talking about afterward. His face was expressionless, his eyes were lifeless, and he looked like he was dead.

Oh no, he forgot to connect to the private channel; everything just happened on the public channel!

He is already dead.

The concept of covert communication was conceived by Ge Xiaolun and his fellow officers and senior researchers at the Academy of Sciences. After all, modern warfare is information warfare, and if military communications are cut off, it's no different from being blind.

Of course, the Chinese military did have contingency plans, but if each military region fought independently in the face of an alien invasion, there was a high possibility of unexpected casualties. So, this clandestine communication system was developed.

Of course, it wasn't entirely reliant on covert communication, since it was just a backup plan. But every soldier was equipped with one, with the terminal on Xiao Lun and connected to the helmets of every soldier around him.

The connection to the secret communication system is only effective if the soldier is a Chinese soldier and is wearing a helmet. Once the helmet is removed, the connection to the secret communication system will be immediately lost!

This also prevents others from obtaining the helmets of Chinese soldiers and eavesdropping on their clandestine communications.

That's why Ge Xiaolun said his society was dead. Because of his efforts, the secret communication system basically connected the entire China. It only needed to distinguish different regions to achieve hierarchical secret communication across different areas.

Du Qiangwei was somewhat embarrassed and annoyed, and went to carry out her mission without looking back.

As for this little incident, Lianfeng and the others could only shake their heads and smile wryly, at most reminding him not to get distracted.

After all, this kind of thing is neither a big deal nor a small deal. It's a private matter, and it was discussed in clandestine communications. As long as it doesn't affect the mission, it doesn't matter.

"Xiao Lun, don't think too much, just finish the mission first." Lian Feng listened to the increasingly outrageous words in the cryptic communication channel, and in order to avoid causing a major incident, she directly comforted him in the channel.

As expected, as soon as Lianfeng finished speaking, the voices in the communication channel quickly fell silent.

Lianfeng holds a very high official position and is currently the direct superior of the Super Soldier Squad. She also frequently visits the grassroots level, and many soldiers know her.

"Understood, Chief Lianfeng." Ge Xiaolun nodded, composed himself, and continued the mission.

After this little episode, it's time to talk about Sun Wukong.

The officials on Flower Fruit Mountain couldn't stop the enthusiasm of the people, so they let people in in batches to visit Sun Wukong.

Fortunately, people are generally well-behaved; at least they take their household waste with them.

Zhao Xin even joked that if they put up a gate and sold tickets, he would probably become the richest man in less than a year, and he wouldn't have to clean up.

Some farmers saw a business opportunity. Huaguo Mountain is a nationally protected primeval forest, so it was definitely not feasible to lease the entire mountain for development. However, the rural areas closest to Huaguo Mountain took the opportunity to open agritainment businesses and made a fortune.

Even men and women who had left the village returned to build their homes and made a fortune.
