Counterfeit Hero

Chapter 1325 - 67: Lofty Mountains and Steep Ridges (End)

People don’t want to get into arguments. They just want to know if those more than a hundred young Chuckna Warriors can still return home alive.This wait is undoubtedly gut-wrenching.

What will their fate be? At this moment, perhaps only the Allied Command Center knows the answer.

The signal light shifted from red to green, and the swirling multicolored lights on the virtual screen gradually formed a shape.

Li Hongwu, Li Cunxin, Pei Litong, Felix, and all the senior commanders, including Hastings, who also received the communication signal from the Supreme Command, stared blankly at the image of two smug fat faces—one big, one small—on the screen. In the background were scattered corpses and the Jiepeng Division Commander Vego, bound in an "SM" shape with a weapon belt.

They listened blankly as Vego admitted to surrendering, and as Fatty explained how they would release more than a hundred Chuckna Warriors, announce the surrender, and control the Second Armored Division to ensure the entire process went without a hitch.

No one dared to believe that all this was true.

Silence cloaked the command center.

After some unknown length of time, the Old Marshal Li Cunxin suddenly laughed. With a tremulous voice, the old man harshly cursed, "You little brat!!"

The Supreme Command of the Alliance forces also fell silent.

Hastings looked at Vego, bound with the weapon belt’s curves exposed, turned his head towards Margaret, his eyes filled with unhidden admiration and a smile: "This guy is a revenge-loving bastard."

Margaret seemingly thought of something too, biting her lips hard, her face turning red: "He’s just a bastard!"

On the TV screen, the previously silent and frozen valley finally began to move.

As people saw the more than a hundred Red Mechas slowly walk out from the hesitantly and slowly parting Jiepeng Mecha Group, blending into the Chuckna Armored Group, they held their breath, their hearts almost leaping out of their throats.

After a commotion, when they saw the Jiepeng Mecha Warriors, surrounded by slowly advancing Chuckna Mecha cannon muzzles, dejectedly disengage from combat status, open their Mecha cockpits, and surrender, everyone found it unbelievable.

What happened?!

One Jiepeng Mecha after another disengaged from combat status, and one Chuckna Mecha squad after another inserted themselves into the Jiepeng ranks, controlling the Jiepeng Mecha Warriors who raised their hands high.

People stared blankly at this miraculous scene until Felix’s familiar voice sounded off-screen.

"I can’t tell you exactly what happened; it’s all too complicated. At this moment, I just need to say one thing... Rejoice, we won."

We won!

These two words ignited the entire Chuckna like a spark.

Cheers rose like thunder from a clear sky.

Everyone went wild. In the lounge of the office building, in bars, in pubs, at home, countless people jumped up, rushed out the doors, and filled the streets. Countless young people held high the Chuckna flag, running wildly through the streets. Countless people were stunned by the surprise, and countless shed tears of joy for the safe return of the warriors.

No one cared about what exactly happened, from hell to heaven, at this moment, they could only muster all their strength and enthusiasm to join the joyful crowd.

In the command center’s hall, numerous screens displayed footage from domestic TV broadcasts.

The boiling crowd, the figures jumping by the roadside on the square, the Chuckna national flag like a sea of red... The screen’s changing lights illuminated the faces of all the officers and soldiers in the command hall, brightening and dimming.

Ding, a soft sound. On the central console, a green light lit up, signaling the smooth completion of the operation from the front line.

The Old Marshal Li Cunxin suddenly took off his military cap and threw it into the air.

All the advisors, all the officers, and all the soldiers jumped up. Countless military caps were tossed into the air, and the massive command hall of the Hermo Carrier immediately turned into a sea of joy.

Sophie couldn’t believe her eyes and quickly turned her head...

Milan and Boswell gently hugged, their beautiful faces radiating pride and happiness.

Sophie remembered the girl’s unwavering words.

"He will return."

Watching the cheering crowd, the military caps flying everywhere, the two smug, yet pretending to be shy fat faces on the main screen, Sophie felt her heartstrings being fiercely plucked by an invisible hand.

She smiled, using the back of her hand to cover her mouth, tears bursting from her eyes.

The screen, in the satellite-released footage, gradually pulled up to show a vast range of towering mountains adorned with patches of snow amidst the greenery.

. Yesterday, I went home and fell asleep immediately, sleeping until ten a.m. today. Lately, I’ve been very tired. I can only sleep five hours a day. Not because I don’t have time, but because I can’t fall asleep. Any slight noise wakes me up. I’m getting more and more exhausted. At the annual meeting, I envied my roommate sleeping soundly. Being able to sleep like I did yesterday was the greatest happiness for me.
