My Husband, a Marshal: Conquering the Stars with My Culinary Arts-Chapter 702 - 236 Returning Home_3

Du Xixi still followed the original plan, being carefully watched and protected not far away by 2569. Thanks to the help of spiritual power, the "restrictions" of this world on her were actually less than on others. Moreover, the intensity of daily training was the same for everyone, and Du Xixi’s skills had even improved considerably since she first arrived.

However, Du Xixi lacked rapport with the others. There were no previous connections, and considering Ke Lian’s habit of being annoyingly possessive, Du Xixi didn’t speak much with the other officers, only getting to know each other’s intensity during training at most.

At this rate, Du Xixi felt that even if she spent a year with everyone, she might not develop much camaraderie. Therefore, she couldn’t participate in this mammoth hunting operation.

But being a spectator wasn’t bad either. Du Xixi occupied the best observation spot, clearly seeing everyone’s position. Although she couldn’t engage in the action, she could occasionally warn those who couldn’t guard or dodge in time.

This mammoth’s prowess should be stronger than the one Ke Lian and the others had previously strived to kill. No other reason, just judging from the size. Du Xixi remembered that mammoth was tall, but only of a normal size, while this mammoth was exceptionally sturdy, nearly twice as tall as the previous one.

However, while the mammoth had gotten stronger, Ke Lian and the others were also in better condition and strength than before. At that time, they were "out of ammo and provisions," hungry and exhausted, only able to fight desperately, almost considering trying to roast mammoth meat on their own.

Even then, they were in an almost unbearable state, yet the mammoth could not escape its fate of death. Now, although this mammoth was taller, Ke Lian and the others were confidently maneuvering and fighting it. In Du Xixi’s opinion, the mammoth’s fate was nothing but "death."

After more than half an hour, the mammoth finally couldn’t hold on and collapsed heavily to the ground. It was covered in countless wounds made by Ke Lian and the others, even on its forehead, the most vulnerable spot, where Ke Lian had fiercely struck a notch.

Although there was compassion in Du Xixi’s heart, seeing Ke Lian and the others surround the huge carcass of the mammoth and start cheering, she didn’t feel it should be spared. Du Xixi walked towards everyone with a light smile, and Ke Lian stood in the middle, extending his hand to invite her to share in the joy of the moment.

The law of the jungle, the winner becomes king, is that wrong?

No, it’s not wrong.

Everyone didn’t know how to properly preserve the mammoth’s carcass, nor how to make such a large specimen. Fortunately, 2569 was there, and Du Xixi’s Space Button could be used, allowing the mammoth’s carcass to be best preserved in the compressed space, without showing signs of decay even after ten days to half a month.

The person and the robot discussed transferring everything stored in 2569 to Du Xixi’s Space Button, then 2569 preserved the mammoth’s enormous carcass.

There was no other option, as 2569’s storage space was larger than Du Xixi’s Space Button. After the mammoth’s carcass entered the storage space of 2569, it was fully packed, occupying the entire capacity.

The mammoth specimen Chen Yin wanted was prepared, and without any lingering concerns, everyone huddled in the cave, eating the delicacies Du Xixi brought from the Star Era, chatting about topics discussed countless times. On the tenth day, the day everyone eagerly awaited to return home had finally arrived.

On this morning, including Du Xixi, everyone changed into clean clothes—new military uniforms transported by 2569, as well as some spare sportswear Du Xixi brought. After washing up, Du Xixi took out the QO-0516 combat-type spaceship that had brought her and 2569 to this world from the Space Button.

The spaceship was originally stored with 2569, but as everything in 2569’s storage space was transferred to Du Xixi’s Space Button, she took out the spaceship.

Du Xixi had no way of knowing if the temporary passage was open, as the signal communicator was not operational, but there was a button in the QO-0516 spaceship that could connect to the temporary passage in reverse.

If the temporary passage was open, then the QO-0516 spaceship could automatically connect to the temporary passage once the button was pressed. Du Xixi, Ke Lian, and the others could naturally return to the Blue Star Empire through this button.

But if the temporary passage wasn’t open...

Du Xixi took a deep breath, instinctively avoiding any bad thoughts, and led everyone into the spaceship. At this time, the energy of the spaceship was still at 70%, indicating that after traveling through time and space with Du Xixi and 2569 and being idle for ten days, the spaceship had only used up 30% of its energy.

Seeing so much energy still left, everyone felt somewhat at ease, reassured that energy shortage wouldn’t be a concern upon return. As Du Xixi pressed the button, blue and purple light began to appear outside, and everyone felt completely grounded.

Finally, it was time to go home.
