14 Seol-Hyun Ae

"Keiko-chan! You're back! Why don't you contact me? You don't even reply when I send you a message!"

Keiko was frightened by Seol-Hyun Ae's enthusiasm and was a little helpless, and she replied:

"Sorry... uh... these last two days have been very chaotic, so…"

"How is it? Is your injury better? I heard that you were poisoned." She asked again.

"It's okay, it's all right now." Keiko comforted.

The bubbly young lady was Seol-Hyun Ae, another vice-captain of the left-wing, Keiko's partner, and Lu Diyun's right hand.

Because she was wearing a helmet, Keiko couldn't see her face, but Keiko had seen the photos in her profile before and knew that she was a Korean female officer with short black hair and dark brown eyes.

She had a small round face with big round eyes, like a puppy. She got a dimple when she smiled, and the beauty mark below her lips accentuated her beauty.

She had an outgoing and cheerful personality, and she was pretty much an extrovert, which was quite different from Keiko's personality.

When Seol-Hyun Ae exchanged a few words with Antonio, Lu Diyun's voice sounded in their headphones.

"Okay, get in the car for those who should get in the car, and get in the mecha for those who should get in the mecha. We're going to depart soon. If you have anything to say, we'll talk about it when we get back to the city."

Everyone stopped chattering, Lu Diyun and Seol-Hyun Ae entered the mecha cabin again, Keiko and Antonio also got into the left-wing front armored car. This time there were only two of them in the car, and there were only three people near the driver in front.

Before long, the large convoy started moving again. After experiencing the previous accident, the entire Third Squadron finally reunited after all the hardships and continued to march to the city to complete this mission.

On the way there, Keiko didn't see where the target items they were escorting were, and she didn't know what the secret military supplies were.

Whatever it was, it was worth the trouble to assign the ace division to escort it.

Many military scientific research projects were extremely dangerous. If the testing area was in the city-state, in the event of an accident, there would definitely be a large number of casualties.

If it was located outside the city, it could avoid danger, reduce losses, and at the same time strengthen the confidentiality of military scientific research.

During the march, Keiko again fell into a state of drowsiness. Her body was not yet completely recovered, and as the long-distance march was bumpy and tiring, it put more burden on Keiko's body and so her mental state was not good.

But before she fell asleep, she heard a voice coming from the earphones.

"Keiko-chan, how do you feel spending two days with Valentine's team?"

If there was someone who addressed her in such an affectionate manner, it must've been Seol-Hyun.

Keiko woke up, reacted for a moment, and then replied:

"They were very kind..."

"Of course they are; you are a hero and idol, after all. That woman must be trying to coax you to join her team."

Seol-Hyun sounded slightly annoyed. "That woman" she was referring to was Lieutenant Valentine.

Keiko didn't answer and instead said, "Is it really okay for the two of us to use the communication channel for private chats like this?"

"Oh, the private chat channel I opened is just the two of us. No one else knows."

"Lieutenant Lu knows, he has higher authority than us," Keiko replied in a matter-of-fact tone.

"The lieutenant doesn't care." Seol-Hyun Ae scoffed and then complained, "You lawful neutral people are too serious. Just relax a bit, won't you?"

Keiko's heart skipped a beat when she heard the words, and after thinking for a moment, she remembered that in Seol-Hyun Ae's information, it was mentioned that she was not from the lawful neutral camp. She was a neutral good person. This alignment was not as lawful as neutral in respect of discipline, despite that, it was still one of the recruiting-oriented alignments of the army.

In the army, there were several camps that did not exist.

The first was the chaotic camp. Whether it was chaotic good, chaotic neutral, or chaotic evil, those who did not obey orders were taboo in the military.

Secondly, neutral evil couldn't enter the army.

Such people were considered to be mischievous in the disciplined forces, and they belonged to the category of troublemakers.

Lawful evil needs to go through strict vetting before entering the army and undergo regular psychological assessments, which were equivalent to monitoring the brain. People in this camp only exist in a small part of the army.

Therefore, in the army, the four camps of lawful good, lawful neutral, neutral good, and absolute neutral account for the vast majority.

Among them, lawful neutral and neutral good alignment accounted for the vast majority.

There were very few people who were in lawful good's camp. They belong to the kind of people with lofty moral values ​​and personal heroism.

In the army, such people are either very popular, welcomed, or very annoying.

And people who were absolutely neutral were like air with a lack of presence. But it was also possible to have both sides and have better interpersonal relationships.

Speaking of the absolutely neutral camp, she had to mention Jeanne Armstrong.

Keiko checked her information before and found that the female major was actually a person from the absolutely neutral camp, which made her feel a little incredible.

She looked so strong, she should have had a very distinct character and self-assertion, but on the contrary, absolute neutral people had no claims of their own, or their claims were neutral. When they experience something, they often choose the safer option.

Could it be that this female major was so timid? Or, in fact, she had an absolutely calm attitude towards world affairs, was impartial, had no emotional tendencies of her own, and was so cold to the point of indifference?

While Keiko's thoughts were flying, suddenly, a piercing alarm sounded in the intercom headset, which made her tremble, and the armored vehicle braked suddenly.

Due to inertia, Keiko was directly thrown to the back of the driver's seat.

Immediately afterward, Captain Cathie's stern yet calm voice sounded in the earphones:

"Enemy attack! The entire army immediately enters a first-level combat state!"
