White Vine vs. Black Panther (3)

For the first time, Lu Xiaojiu was counting his days on his fingers.

Before leaving White Vine Star, he had coldly and mercilessly rejected the Ninth Squad of the Black Panther Legion's request for half a year of vacation, then thoughtfully shortened that half-year leave to twenty days.

Twenty days were just enough for him to scour the outside world for interesting new things before returning to White Vine Star.

How was that not thoughtful?

The Black Eagle Warship landed on White Vine Star once again.

Lu Xiaojiu had changed into a brand-new black uniform, the black panther-shaped diamond epaulets on his shoulders glittering brightly.

This time, he had brought only Luo Wei and Black Shadow.

His black short boots touched the ground as Lu Xiaojiu called Black Shadow over.

He crouched halfway down, his dark eyes level with Black Shadow's dark gold ones, his expression grave.

"Black Shadow, you're the strongest Black Panther Mecha in the galaxy. In battle, you are invincible. And when it comes to being shameless, I believe you won't fall short either. Black Shadow, go! For our future!"

Luo Wei silently took two steps back.

Black Shadow was spirited and brimming with energy!

"Awwooo! Awwooo! Awwooo!"

Don't worry, Master! Panther will fight for our future!

Why was it their future?

Over the past twenty days, Lu Xiaojiu had been brainwashing Black Shadow every day.

Black Shadow, your master fell in love with someone at first sight, but I made him angry.

Our hearts are connected. Feel my emotions—aren't they stifling, miserable, painful, and full of longing?

If this goes on, I'll get sick.

If I get sick, you'll get sick too.

If we both get sick, we won't have a future.

*As they say, only the right medicine can cure a sickness of the heart.
