It was already a done deal that Mingmei and Muchen would be in the legion on Hualan Star, but several major events happened outside the game during the time they were in the game.

First, the Zerg suddenly attacked the star system where Hua Lan Star was located. This attack directly clashed with Mei Qiu. This battle was swift and fierce. After assessing the strength of Hua Lan Star and its subordinate planets, the Zerg left immediately without any hesitation.

However, not long after that, the Zerg actually settled many of their own near Hualan Star, looking like they were eyeing it covetously and ready to make a move at any moment.

Although the Zerg had appeared on Hualan Star before, there had been almost no actual battles. This time, the conflict led both the Empire and the Federation to send reinforcements to some asteroids already stationed in the Hualan Starfield.

This instantly raised the danger level of the Hualan Starfield by several levels.

Their original plans are no longer valid.

"But my second brother originally meant that we would get more experience following him. The situation on Hualan Star is not good right now, but we are not the kind of people who would hold them back. Maybe we will get even more experience."

When Mingmei and Muchen heard the news in the office after class, they both disagreed.

"Then... then my grandmother, does that mean she agreed too?"

When Mu Chen thought of the Mu family, a sense of worry welled up in his heart.

These are the kind relatives who have shown him kindness in this world.

"Yes, she said that disciples who are away from home don't need to go back. They can just continue to work hard in their respective positions."

Thinking of the old lady from the Mu family, Cheshire glanced at Mu Chen again.

Chesil had heard Mei Qiu mention some of Mu Chen's background.

It was thanks to the fact that Old Madam Mu accepted Mu Chen and took him under her wing, raising and caring for him properly. When he heard Mu Chen's words of concern for Old Madam Mu, Cheshire was satisfied.

"So, this time, we'll choose the corps ourselves?"

“No.” As Cheshire said this, Mu Chen and Mingmei looked over. Their hearts skipped a beat. Could it be that they had some back door to go through?

"Choosing Major General Hu's Sixth Army Corps is A Qiu's idea, but you can also bring up any other ideas you have."

"Huh? 0.0?"

Mingmei vividly remembered the sarcastic and unfriendly way her second brother and Hu Yue's brother, Hu Mingli, exchanged when they met. Mingmei even felt that her brother had ulterior motives in inviting her over.

“The area where the Sixth Legion is located was once the most dangerous region in the Empire.” Chesil noticed that Mingmei and Muchen seemed unaware of the seriousness of the matter.

"Given the Zerg's current attitude towards the Hua Lan star system, it's possible that the Hua Lan star system will become similar to the star system where the Sixth Legion is stationed in the future. Compared to Hua Lan, we don't have much experience there yet. Your brother hopes that you and Mu Chen will go there to learn valuable experience and return to Hua Lan after graduation..."

"Can it really be delayed that long? I still have many years until I graduate."

Mingmei was only worried that the Zerg wouldn't be able to give her that much time.

"Don't worry, those insects can wait. They've been waiting for over a decade to ambush Aqiu. The insectoids disguised among humans are all fighting for the Queen Insect Mother's life, one after another."

"That's not a question you should be thinking about."

Cheshire patted Mingmei's head, then turned to stare at Mu Chen, and after a long pause said, "Go see the mental health specialist at the school hospital more often, whether you have something to do or not."

She wasn't sure if it was just her imagination, but Mu Chen's gaze seemed sharper than usual lately. While it wasn't the look of someone who was mentally ill, as his homeroom teacher, she felt she should pay more attention to the students' mental state.

However, just thinking about this gave Cheshire a headache over another student.

Li Yuan.

First, Li Yuan talked to her himself, and then Li Yuan's older brother, Li Xian, also found her to chat.

Regarding the question of Li Yuan joining the army.

Originally, even if Li Yuan and Hu Yue were dating, the Li family wouldn't have let him choose to go to the Sixth Legion with Hu Yue so easily, because Li Yuan was not suitable to be a combatant.

However, the death of Li Yuan's father had a great impact on Li Yuan, and he wanted to go to the Sixth Legion to train himself.

However, Li Xian disagreed, not only because of his brother's selfishness, but also because Li Yuan was more skilled in mecha design than in combat.

He didn't want to see Li Yuan waste his true talent because of hatred, or even lose his life in vain because of hatred. Therefore, he specifically sought out Chesil and asked him to do some ideological work on Li Yuan.

However, it is clear that Chercil's attempt was unsuccessful.

When Mu Chen thought of Li Yuan, he sighed heavily.

"What's wrong, Second Sister-in-law?"

After the business was over, Mingmei stopped calling her "teacher" and started calling her "second sister-in-law." Mu Chen thought that Qiexier was sighing for him, and he couldn't help but feel nervous. Was the other party dissatisfied with him?

“I just think the positions in the Sixth Legion are extremely competitive this year,” Chesil said, rubbing his forehead. “Even though it’s incredibly dangerous there.”

Almost every year when military academy students choose which corps they will serve in, the teachers' communication devices are bombarded with calls.

A hot commodity in the eyes of students, but a dangerous zone in the eyes of parents—that's Hu Mingli's Sixth Army.

However, these are not things that Mingmei cares about.

Compared to things that happen in a predictable way, when Mingmei returned to her dorm to rest today, she opened Lu Xiaoyao's live stream for the first time in a long time.

Lu Xiaoyao didn't log in to the game for a month, and after that, she had a series of training sessions and exams, which meant she was almost "offline" for more than half a month.
