#888 - Chapter 888: Can you marry my sister too? Bow and Arrow VS Black Armor, Chen Hao's Assoc
"Whenever you want."
Chen Hao tossed aside his fishing rod and ran over excitedly, grabbing her hand: "We agreed that we'd get married after graduation. Now that we've just graduated, how about..."
"Can we do it after the counterattack is complete?" she asked considerately.
"Okay!"
Chen Hao nodded.
That's what he was thinking too!
Even though he said they'd get married after graduation, with the war between civilizations not over, he really wasn't in the mood for marriage.
Of course, if his wife asked to get married, he wouldn't hesitate at any time.
But he never expected...
That's right!
In both his past and present lives, she had always considered him first.
"Can the wedding not be too extravagant?" she asked.
"Okay!"
"Can we just invite family and friends from both sides?"
"Okay!"
"Can we hold it in Jinling?"
"Okay!"
"Can you marry my sister too?"
"Okay..."
What?!
Chen Hao suddenly sobered up.
He was completely dumbfounded.
He had been agreeing to all of his wife's requests for the wedding without thinking, readily saying okay to every question.
But what was going on now?
He stared blankly at his wife: "Do you know what you're saying?"
"My sister... likes you," Xia Qingmo said, pursing her lips.
"Am I supposed to marry everyone who likes me?"
"If she doesn't marry you, I feel... she won't marry anyone in this lifetime!"
"And then?"
"I..."
The girl smiled bitterly: "I can't care whether other girls who like you will marry someone else in this lifetime, but... she's my sister!"
Chen Hao stared at her in silence.
"I'm sorry..."
Being stared at like that, Xia Qingmo lowered her head: "I'm just... feeling sad."
It was an extremely contradictory state of mind.
Whenever she thought of her sister, she couldn't help but feel sad.
There was no solution to this!
In fact, she had already regretted asking that question.
Love is selfish.
She was no exception!
"Qingmo, some things..."
Suddenly!
Just as Chen Hao was about to say something, the warning function of his sunglasses sounded an alarm in his mind.
'Warning! Cold weapon detected!'
'Possible danger!'
'Entering full alert! '
What the hell?
Chen Hao was a little confused.
This was a small island off the coast of Greenland in the Arctic.
Could it be...
People from another civilization?
"Playback!" Chen Hao ordered with his mind.
He and his wife weren't in the mecha's cockpit. The mecha was quietly parked twenty meters away, but it wasn't turned off—it not only had its own monitoring equipment but was also connected to satellites in real-time, giving it a clear picture of the surrounding area.
The situation monitored by the mecha was immediately fed back to the sunglasses in the form of a holographic image.
Zoom in!
Chen Hao discovered that a seal in the distance had been hit by an arrow and was bleeding profusely.
So...
The cold weapon detected was an arrow?
He breathed a sigh of relief.
Firstly, the target of the attack was a seal, not them.
Secondly, the distance was a bit far.
Xuán Jiǎ's AI system would immediately issue an alarm as soon as it detected a dangerous object.
In fact, it posed no threat to Chen Hao.
"Qingmo!"
Thinking of what had just happened, Chen Hao took the opportunity to change the subject and distract his wife.
He pointed in a certain direction: "There are people over there. Shall we go take a look?"
"How could there be people here?" Xia Qingmo asked in confusion.
"We're near Greenland. Maybe they're Eskimos? Should we go take a look?"
"Yeah!"
Xia Qingmo nodded happily.
Encountering other people here was something to be pleasantly surprised about.
She understood that her boyfriend was avoiding certain topics that would make them both awkward.
...
Two kilometers away.
A man with a scruffy beard was waiting for the seal to die completely.
An Eskimo.
Also known as an Inuit, they mainly live in the Arctic region, including Greenland.
Today's Eskimos have gradually come into contact with modern society and can't be considered true primitives, but they still retain certain customs—such as hunting.
The man saw a young couple walking over.
Since they had come into contact with modern society, they shouldn't be too surprised.
But...
What he saw was more than just two people?
Behind the two people.
Xuán Jiǎ, with a height exceeding ten meters, was following step by step!
Being in a desolate place and seeing that the other party had a bow and arrow, Chen Hao felt that bringing Xuán Jiǎ would make him feel safer.
But he had overlooked one thing!
Did the whole world know about Xuán Jiǎ?
Had the Eskimos come into contact with modern society?
But!
In the icy and snowy Arctic, it was very difficult for Eskimos to communicate with the outside world—they hadn't seen the news about Xuán Jiǎ at all!
The man stared at Xuán Jiǎ in horror.
His hands trembled as he drew his bow...
Unfortunately.
He didn't even have the strength to draw the bowstring.
Because of fear!
"Don't be afraid, we are Chinese!"
Chen Hao switched to Inuit: "I forgot, you may not have seen the news. This is just a weapon made by our country to deal with enemies—we are not enemies, you don't need to worry."
Hearing this, the man's spirit clearly relaxed, and he no longer continued to draw the bowstring.
However, he still glanced at the mecha from time to time.
The feeling of fear was mostly eliminated, but it couldn't completely disappear.
Seeing the other party's still frightened expression...
Suddenly!
Various things from before flashed in Chen Hao's mind.
Earlier, they were about two kilometers apart, and there were icebergs and other obstacles between them, so they couldn't see each other with the naked eye.
But when the Eskimo used the bow and arrow, Xuán Jiǎ immediately issued an alarm.
How did Xuán Jiǎ discover him?
The source of information wasn't Xuán Jiǎ itself, but the countless satellites scattered in Earth's orbit—not only the Eskimo, but the whole world was under satellite surveillance, every detail visible.
Standing from the Eskimo's perspective, he couldn't see Chen Hao and Xuán Jiǎ, let alone the countless satellites.
He was being watched all the time!
It was just that the moment he used the bow and arrow, it triggered Xuán Jiǎ's alarm system.
The act of shooting an arrow was the cause.
When Xuán Jiǎ appeared in front of him, the Eskimo was extremely frightened.
He had a bow and arrow.
But he didn't even have the strength to draw the bow.
And in fact, if he really drew the bow and launched an attack on Chen Hao...
The arrow would have no chance to be shot.
Xuán Jiǎ's protective function would be activated and would directly fire a particle cannon!
"We admit that it was wrong to launch an attack at the beginning, but we all have our reasons..." This was what the envoy of the alien civilization said.
"You were wrong first, we had to do that..." This was what the blue-blooded woman said.
Could it be...
Chen Hao's thoughts were in turmoil.
The ancestors of the alien civilization possessed unimaginable technology.
But now.
The alien civilization lived underground.
By obtaining the blue-blooded woman's memory, Chen Hao knew that the living environment in the underground world was obviously not as good as the surface world, and the alien civilization knew about the surface world—why did they still stay underground?
Also!
It was completely unreasonable for the ancestors of the alien civilization to seal off technology.
Could it be because the ancestors, like the Eskimo in front of him, shot 'an arrow' and were subsequently targeted by 'certain people'?
Fear made them move underground.
Made them confiscate their civilization's 'bows and arrows' to avoid being discovered by certain powerful beings?
However...
Even if the guess was true, it wouldn't prevent him from counterattacking!
Learning from the past, if you were worried that after the Earth's technology developed to a certain point, it would lead to your own civilization being affected, shouldn't you issue a warning? Shouldn't you tell everything and let the Earth put away its 'bows and arrows'?
And what did the alien civilization do?
Release the virus!
Detonate the volcano!
Create a global tsunami!
In their opinion, their technology surpassed the Earth, and they were too lazy to waste words explaining, so it was better to directly destroy it.
Then!
Since you are arrogant and powerful, and you don't regard the Earth civilization as human beings, but treat it like a low-level creature, using the simplest means to slaughter it...
My counterattack is very reasonable, right?
