Chapter 56

The psychologist is the one who has always been responsible for conducting psychological assessments for Qin Yuan.

Qin Yuan had been dealing with her for three years, and they had become quite close friends. Furthermore, this physician was highly skilled and always considerate of Qin Yuan's feelings. The few pieces of advice he had previously sent to General Qin had come from her.

Qin Yuan trusts her very much.

And this time, she came with the endorsement of the Federation.

This shows that the federal top brass has recognized the necessity for her to know some secrets, so Qin Yuan can speak freely in front of this psychologist without worrying about leaks.

The conversation quickly heated up, with Qin Yuan recounting the events of the intercollegiate tournament. Throughout, the psychologist wore a gentle, tolerant smile, nodding slightly as he listened, his gaze fixed on Qin Yuan unblinking, a look of earnestness and tenderness.

Her eyes are light in color, a light brown, and naturally give people a soft and friendly feeling.

Finally, the doctor asked softly, "So, do you like that girl?"

Qin Yuan was stunned for a moment, and felt as if a fire suddenly burned on his face. His lips opened and closed several times, but no word came out.

"Don't be nervous," the doctor said with a smile. "This won't be recorded in our medical records. I'm just curious, so I'm asking one more question. Do you mind, Mr. Qin?"

Qin Yuan's face was flushed red. After a long while, he nodded gently.

"Yes," he whispered, "I like her."

It’s hard to say when it started, but his eyes would always follow that girl, refusing to look away for a long time. Every time he saw her brilliant smile, his heart felt like it was filled with honey.

Her unyielding eyes during training, her heroic demeanor when killing enemies, the way she would rub her forehead in distress after losing a game of chess, her amber pupils reflecting the sunlight...she looked like an angel descended from heaven, or an elf playing in the human world.

...No, maybe even earlier.

Perhaps my heart had already been pounding when the girl in a white dress jumped down from the wall and asked with a smile, "Do you want a healing spell?"

Until today, whenever Qin Yuan recalls the original scene, it feels like a dream.

The psychologist listened to Qin Yuan's story quietly, his eyes shining with excitement.

"Wow," she exclaimed softly, "What an outstanding girl."

Qin Yuan nodded repeatedly.

Very good.

Very good.

He had never seen a girl more powerful than Gu Qiongsheng.

"And he's a very strong healer."

The psychiatrist looked at Qin Yuan and said, "If we stay behind, it should be safer and we can save more people, right?"

Qin Yuan was stunned.

Immediately, his brows slowly and gradually furrowed.

The psychiatrist smiled quietly.

There was a flash of pity in her eyes, and her voice was as gentle as ever, but her words were like soft knives, stabbing Qin Yuan's heart again and again: "Even if you go to the front line and join some large legions, you can play a greater role."

Qin Yuan: "...What do you mean?"

"Nothing," the psychiatrist smiled and shook his head, "I just spoke my mind."

"Look, child, according to what you said, without you, she would still be an excellent and powerful healer, but without her, you would revert to being a fragile ordinary person, unable to use any of your strength."

"The relationship between you two is mismatched and unequal. It's a bond and a hindrance to each other—and it seems that girl didn't agree to treat you for life?"

lifetime.

It seems light, yet weighs more than a thousand pounds.

Qin Yuan pursed his lips suddenly!

The smile on the corners of his lips was like ice and snow caught in the sunlight, melting away completely in an instant, leaving only heaviness on his handsome but pale face.

After a moment of silence, the young man raised his head, his eyes dark and obscure: "...Did the Federation ask you to tell me this?"

"Yes," the psychiatrist agreed readily. "I'm not lying to you. Someone did ask me to say this. But you're a smart kid. You know the right decision."

"Bang!"

Qin Yuan suddenly stood up from his seat.

He turned around without a word and walked straight towards the door without looking back.

The psychiatrist folded his hands under his chin and watched calmly.

When Qin Yuan's slender hand touched the door handle, he suddenly said lightly: "Don't you want to do more for her?"

"The war is intense now, the flames of war are spreading, and the front lines are suffering setbacks again and again. Even if she is content to be a healer, she will inevitably be in danger of her life on the battlefield."

"Like what you saw at the intercollegiate tournament not long ago—the Silent Worm's tentacles nearly pierced her chest, the Rift Worm's sharp knives nearly chopped off her head—things like this will happen countless more times on the battlefield as long as humanity hasn't secured the final victory. Do you want them to happen again?"

Qin Yuan's movement to push the door suddenly froze.

He had his back to the psychiatrist, his back tense.

He gripped the door handle so hard that the purple veins on the back of his hand bulged slightly.

The psychiatrist gave a confident smile.

"A healer can't kill the Worm Queen, and an S-class can't save humanity."

"Only you, Qin Yuan, only you can do this."

She spoke softly, her voice floating in the empty room, like a huge rock, lightly pressing on Qin Yuan's spine.

Deep in the brown pupils, a faint dark blue light flashed.

"If you don't want to continue, the Federation won't force you. But... we hope you can calm down and think carefully."

"It means being an ordinary person, a burden to your partner, living a mediocre life, and eventually dying in the endless war with the Zerg, a nameless death."

"You still have to be the one and only one in the galaxy who kills the Insect Queen, saves all of humanity, and saves your loved ones... Where's Qin Yuan?"

“Beep, beep, beep—”

In Yuancheng University, Gu Qiongsheng’s personal terminal finally received the news.

She excitedly clicked on it, quickly glanced at it, the corners of her lips curled up slightly, and she looked up and shouted to her teammates: "Qin Yuan's news, he said he's fine!"

The teammates cheered in unison: "Yeah!"

Gu Qiongsheng glanced down at the screen a few more times and muttered, "Although he's fine, he still needs to rest... Well, he said he'd have someone send the access card over in a few days so we can continue using the advanced training chamber."

There was another round of cheers in the courtyard.

“Okay!”

"Long live Boss Qin!"

Gu Qiongsheng shook his head with a smile.

She continued silently, "I will be away from Tianyuan Star during my recuperation period. Don't worry. If anything happens, please contact me... Okay?"

That’s it?

The screen has been pulled to the end.

Gu Qiongsheng looked at the few simple lines of small characters and the empty lower half. For some reason, he felt a little empty in his heart.

"It's been so long since I've heard from you, and you didn't even say a word," she muttered. "You didn't even tell me when you'll be back from recuperation... Sigh."

What's there to rest for?

Come back earlier and give him more milk yourself.

Shaking his head, Gu Qiongsheng suppressed his restless emotions.

Although she felt a little disappointed, she could understand it. After all, after spending some time together, she could feel that Qin Yuan's family background was very unusual.

He is physically weak and his mental strength is in such a special condition. His family is in a tense situation, so it is reasonable for them to ask him to rest for a while.

Moreover, the other party replied to the message and reported that he was safe, so at least I didn’t have to worry every day.

Just after putting down the terminal, Gu Qiongsheng heard the "buzzing" sound again.

The person who brought the news this time was Zhou Feng.

Zhou Feng's style was very direct. He started with a string of bold exclamation marks: "!!!"

The excitement and thrill almost overflowed the screen.

“Good news!”

"Your third-class merit will be changed to second-class merit!"

Zhou Feng refused to tell the reason for the upgrade in commendation level in his personal terminal and insisted on taking Gu Qiongsheng and the others out for a trip.

Gu Qiongsheng had no choice but to board the spaceship with his team—but first, the spaceship took them to Tianyuan Star's most luxurious hotel for a hearty meal, then took them to a shopping mall to have each of them custom-made a suit. 3D-printed, instant delivery. Gu Qiongsheng walked back to the spaceship clutching a paper bag. Seeing the familiar label on the bag, his palms trembled.

This is the brand that the original owner used to wear.

Gu Qiongsheng knew exactly how expensive the price was just by looking through his memory.

She couldn't help but stuff the bag back into Zhou Feng's arms: "Sister Zhou, this is too expensive, we can't have it."

Zhou Feng laughed heartily: "What are you afraid of? Just take it. This is our boss's money - ah, it was funded by the legion, not me."

As early as when he returned to Yinhui to report to General Qin, Zhou Feng emphasized the qualifications and potential of the children of A1056, and strongly requested General Qin to use all means to win them over.

General Qin was older and had a stubborn temper, so Zhou Feng was prepared for a long period of persuasion with him.

Unexpectedly, as soon as she mentioned it, General Qin turned around with a start: "Who, Gu Qiongsheng?"

"Win over? Okay, go, go now!"

Old Master Qin didn't know that his grandson had been fooled by the federal high-ranking officials. He was filled with relief and joy that his grandson was finally saved. Zhou Feng's suggestion to recruit Gu Qiongsheng touched the old man's heart.

He even forced a "kind" smile towards Zhou Feng, but in Zhou Feng's eyes, it was almost terrifying. "I don't know what kids like nowadays. I'll leave this matter to you."

"Remember, you must recruit those children to our Yinhui no matter what."

"This is a military order."

"If you don't do it well, you will be beheaded!"

Zhou Feng, who was forced to sign a military order, said: "???"

No, she was just making a suggestion, how did it escalate to "proposing a crime"?

What happened to our general? Why did he suddenly change his personality?

But no matter how many doubts she had in her heart, she still had to follow the military orders, and the boss's requirements had to be strictly implemented meticulously. Moreover, this requirement coincided with Zhou Feng's idea, so she waved her hand and found a way to invite Gu Qiongsheng's entire team out, and then have a one-stop service of eating, drinking and having fun.

I have to say, her trick is somewhat effective.

The students in Class F were used to a hard life, so they could indulge themselves once in a while and have a great time.

However, their will was also strong. They could allow themselves to relax occasionally, but they would never allow themselves to over-entertainment. So, when Zhou Feng once again proposed to take them to experience the nightlife of Tianyuan Star, the team members all refused.

"You can't play anymore," they said. "If you continue, you won't be able to get up for training tomorrow morning."

Zhou Feng teased, "Are you still training so hard?"

"The special recruitment quota has been finalized. You've been effectively accepted into the War College in advance, and you don't even have to take the Alliance exam. Even so, do you still need to train?"

Zhou Qing: "Yes. The captain is making rapid progress, and I need to keep up."

Tan Yao: "That's a must. I can't even beat Zhou Qing right now. If I don't train, how far will I be left behind by her?"

Han Tianming: "Of course I have to. I haven't been able to immobilize the Silent Bug in a one-on-one fight yet."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Feng and Gu Qiongsheng both laughed.

Zhou Feng's expression grew increasingly satisfied, and her gaze towards the members of Team A1056 became particularly bright. She boarded the spaceship and waved to the trainees, "Alright, everyone, get aboard. We'll go to one last place."

"Don't worry, it will be quick and won't delay your training."
