In the next few days, several members of the Earth Defense Force continued to stay on Mars and trained together with the Mars Defense Force.

High-energy weapons are too destructive, so the actual combat training ground is far away from the hospital, and there are people from the medical center accompanying them there to prevent them from getting angry while using them...

After all, this kind of thing has happened before, ha.

Therefore, in the past few days, Mars Exploration Agency has heard some violent explosions from far away from time to time, and even the Development Bureau can occasionally feel slight vibrations on the ground.

Qingkong was very distressed.

"They're wasting energy!"

What a valuable research resource, there is no telling when it will no longer be mined.

Those people are still bombing and consuming at will.

The defense team with only muscles on their bodies is so annoying!

The Development Bureau is currently busy improving MX weapons to make them suitable for use on Earth.

Otherwise, if a hole is blown like that, public opinion will drown the defense forces sooner or later.

So there is no doubt that it has become weaker after the improvement.

This is also inevitable.

Another important thing that has been concealed is——

"Ha, MX energy was stolen?"

Chiba Xing looked at the chief of staff in front of him, his face speechless.

"Didn't you say that they were all secretly studied underground? How could they still be stolen?"

The chief of staff also had a headache at this time and sighed: "A small part was put in other laboratories for research. When we found out that there was an invasion by outsiders, it had already been taken away."

"Awesome." Chiba Yuki clapped his hands expressionlessly.

He has also seen the power brought by MX energy. At first, it only took a little bit to convert it into electrical energy comparable to that of an entire power station. But now, an unknown person stole a tube.

It is even possible that the unknown person is an alien from space who is hostile to the earth.

He has never seen a human being who is so capable of causing trouble.

At that time, the electromagnetic fog interfered with the explosion, causing some equipment to lose its effect. Technicians were busy repairing it. It was probably at that time that outsiders took the opportunity to sneak into the development bureau.

Important energy was also taken away...

After the chief of staff found out about this, he was so angry that he felt like he had a stomachache. Then when he saw Chiba Kogo who looked puzzled and asked him what happened... he just had a headache.

"The enemy's target must be the earth. Since he has taken away the MX energy, there will probably be nothing wrong with the Mars side for the time being." the chief of staff said seriously.

"So what you mean is, let the Earth side take it easy." Chiba Yuki said, holding his head with one hand.

"Fortunately..." the chief of staff looked at him helplessly.

Although the young man in front of him did not show any dissatisfaction, judging from the aura around him...it was a bit low pressure.

"When you study these, you have to think about the consequences. The defense force was originally established to resist external threats, but it doesn't matter if the danger first comes from within yourself."

There is a virtual screen in front of the two people, and the picture above is the scene captured by the surveillance camera at that time.

After the middle-aged man in a white coat walked into the laboratory, he easily took away the test tube containing MX energy. The man's face seemed to be blurred by a barrier, but the EAD logo was clearly printed on the white coat.

logo.

Above that logo is the image of the Monster Research Institute.

"Humans just want to have more power to protect themselves." the chief of staff whispered.

Chiba Xing did not comment on this.

This is their own business, he just hates trouble.

In the next few days, the chief of staff reported the matter to the headquarters, which quickly investigated and got the results not long after.

That person may be Dr. **, a leader in the field of life science, who disappeared three months ago on Kiriya Island, where the Monster Research Institute was first established.

Originally, everyone thought that the doctor had become the only victim under the claws of the Nelonga mutant, and they had held a collective moment of silence, but now it seems that this is not the case at all.

Shocked! Doctor ** hidden in the Earth Alliance headquarters may actually be an undercover cosmonaut?

He was immediately included in EAD's wanted list.

Moreover, a report on the mutation composition of the space dragon Nabernessa was also written and submitted to the headquarters. After learning that the monsters that have been harassing the Martian world were partly caused by humans themselves.

It is unknown whether the Monster Research Institute will continue to exist.

This is what humans consider themselves.

Whatever you choose, you must bear the corresponding responsibility.

...

The Earth Defense Force, which has been a guest on Mars for several days, is finally ready to return to its home planet.

Also going back this time were the Martian technicians who went there to equip weapons.

The development bureau also handed over the data of the improved weapons in the virtual training ground to Chiba Yuki. After returning to Earth, the defense team can continue to practice in their own training ground.

Qingkong reluctantly said goodbye, "Qianye, if you want to come back and continue research in the future, you must tell me!"

You say you are a good scientific research talent, but why can't you think of joining some defense force?

Chiba Xing showed an expression of extreme disgust towards him.

The chief of staff also said goodbye to him. He sighed and patted his shoulder, but he hesitated to speak. The expression on his serious face was a bit strange.

"Is there anything else? You can tell me." After thinking about it for a while, Chiba Xing asked.

"In a few days..." the chief of staff said slowly.

"Um."

"It's your birthday."

"ah?"

Chiba Xing was stunned for a moment, then saw the chief of staff take out a black gift box and hand it to him, and said: "You didn't even have the chance to give this to you on your eighteenth birthday. Let's do it together this time."

At that time, Chiba Yuki had already gone to Earth and had never experienced any coming-of-age ceremony or anything like that.

After staring at the exquisitely wrapped gift box for a long time, Chiba Xing finally took it and whispered: "Thank you very much."

...

The rest of the defense team were already waiting in the aircraft. Everyone was still discussing the new weapons they had come across in the past few days. They said that the Galaxy missile was easy to use, but the supernova fluctuations needed to be precisely controlled.

"Emiko's accuracy is so bad." Yuya complained.

"Really! I'm pretty good at practicing now!" Jiang Meiko said angrily.

Jiang Miko's attack accuracy was the lowest in the team when she first joined the team, so she was criticized all the time, but she has actually improved a lot after two years of practice.

"Yuki-kun, you've been waiting for a long time - what is that?" So in order to avoid being laughed at by the crowd again, Jiang Miko quickly shifted her target to Chiba Yuki who came up, and then she saw the black gift box in his hand.

"nothing."

Chiba Yuki responded casually, sat down next to her and looked at the number of people. There was still a captain missing and he couldn't leave yet.

"He was saying goodbye to his old friend." Rie Amagawa sat in front, holding her chin and looking out the window.

Not far away, Sato Takaji and Sozoru Takuro were walking towards the aircraft, talking and laughing.

It's not easy to lead a team, and the two captains have a lot in common.

Seeing the chief of staff standing next to the aircraft, the two said hello.

"After the Earth, it's up to you to protect our homeland!" The chief of staff, who knew that Dr. X would definitely cause trouble, patted Takashi Sato on the shoulder with encouraging eyes.

"I will definitely do it." Sato Takaji smiled.

And when he stepped onto the aircraft, the chief of staff suddenly said again: "Captain Sato, I ask you to take more care of that child..."
Chapter completed!
