Mingmei suddenly opened her eyes only to find herself still in the game.

When she saw on the game's start screen that her identity had been defaulted to human, she felt her mind was still a little dull, as if she hadn't recovered from the shock of the suddenly exploding insect core.

"There's a second half?"

When she came to her senses, she saw the large text indicating that the second half of the game was about to begin.

Yes, the rules for the second half are the same as the first half, but the roles played by each player are reversed.

Seeing that Mingmei seemed unable to figure out the meaning of the game after a long time, Guigui offered to explain it to her.

Mingmei glanced at the number 252 on the top left corner of the game screen and said, "I remember it used to be 0."

[Yes, because you killed a total of 252 players in the first half. One point for each player.]

Gui Gui then explained the origin of this number to Mingmei: "In the second half, you get one point for each Zerg you kill. I'm not entirely sure what these points are for, but they seem to be related to real-world rewards."

Seeing that Mingmei wasn't in a hurry to enter the game, Guigui chatted with her for a few more minutes.

Mingmei listened but questioned, "But the difficulty of a Zerg player killing a human player for one point is not the same as the difficulty of a human player killing a Zerg player, right?"

Mingmei doesn't even need to think about it carefully. Take herself as an example. The vast majority of her two hundred points were obtained by the insect core suddenly self-destructing at the end, dragging everyone down with it.

If it were someone else, even piloting a mech, and that mech just sat in the midst of a swarm of Zerg and self-destructed, they'd probably be completely wiped out.

Yes, so, a human player who kills a Zerg player receives an additional 6 points on top of the base score. In total, a human gets 7 points for killing a Zerg player, while a Zerg player gets 1 point for killing a human.

"Damn, this is blatant double standards!" No wonder Mingmei noticed that the soldier players were all incredibly excited during the first half.

[Host, not only that, when playing as a human player, all player information is directly scanned upon entering the game. This includes the player's own equipment data, which can also be imported in advance, like this.] 仟仟尛哾

Before Mingmei could do anything, she saw Guigui import the data of her mecha suit into the game. Sure enough, a mecha space button corresponding to the real-world suit appeared on her.

"Does this mean I can use special outfits in the game?"

Mingmei was hit by a sudden surprise. She hadn't used the brocade armor, this powerful weapon, since the last time she used it. She still occasionally missed the time when she used the mecha brocade armor.

Of course, what about those oddly shaped mechs in the game earlier?

Gui Gui reminded Ming Mei of the two mechs, one red and one black.

"What about players without mechs?"

The game will match players with mechs of similar strength, but no higher than A+.

"That's enough. No wonder nobody wants to be an insect."

...

When Mingmei entered the game, the first thing she saw when she opened her eyes was that she was in the soldiers' rest cabin on the starship.

She left the rest pod and followed the game's directions into the starship's main control room, where twenty players were chatting in small groups.

She immediately spotted Mu Chen's familiar figure. He and several other players were seriously discussing something using the complex control panel on the starship.

"Meimei! Wow, you're here too? That's great!"

Before she could call out to anyone, Lu Xiaoyao spotted Mingmei first and pulled Hu Yue over to greet her.

Several other players followed behind them.

Their eyes seemed to hold a hint of eagerness as they looked at the bright sunshine.

"Ahhh, you, you, you're the guy who sells lunchboxes!"

A female player pointed at Mingmei and shouted excitedly, making Mingmei's heart skip a beat!

When did her identity get exposed?!

"You're the NPC's face double—I mean, the original face!"

The girl who had just exposed her identity was speaking heavily and didn't hear the second half of her sentence, and her bright face almost couldn't hold back.

Then she said something that made Mingmei feel like she was about to slip and fall.

Mingmei felt like her heart was about to explode.

"My name is Dong Lei, a first-year student in the command department of the Second Military Academy. You can just call me 'Lei Lei'!" Dong Lei's loud and boisterous manner was exactly like a carbon copy of Lu Xiaoyao. She got close to Mingmei and acted like she knew her inside and out.

No wonder he gets along so well with Lu Xiaoyao.

"Hello……"

Before Mingmei could speak, Dong Lei stepped forward again and asked, "By the way, I'm a fan of General Mei Qiu. Do you have any autographed photos of General Mei Qiu?"

"without……"

Mingmei is used to seeing her brother's fans every few steps.

"If you like my brother, why did you join the Sixth Legion?"

Mingmei glanced at Hu Yue standing to the side. When she heard Hu Yue say that she admired Mei Qiu, she didn't think much of it at first. But when Mingmei suddenly asked this question, Hu Yue couldn't help but look at her.

Yes, what's the point of you coming here if you admire General Mei Qiu?

"Isn't that the area where the Sixth Army Corps is stationed my hometown?" Dong Lei said frankly, "Then after I go to the Sixth Army Corps, I can go home and visit more often. My neighbor uncle next door was in the Sixth Army Corps when I was little, and I often saw him coming back~"

As Dong Lei recounted this, she couldn't help but swallow, saying, "My mom's cooking is amazing!"

Everyone: "..." Isn't this against the rules?

Lu Xiaoyao: "Can I get a free meal?"
