A massive explosion transports Yu Sheng, an Earthling, billions of light-years away to Mantou Star.
However, upon waking, Yu Sheng finds himself locked in a cage, slated to be the grand final...
Rescue Plan
Late at night, the dormitory was pitch black. Yu Sheng lay on his side in bed, his brow furrowed, his sleep somewhat restless. Mars, on the bunk above him, was sprawled out, snoring. On the bunk opposite him, Guila was curled up in a small ball, her long eyelashes curling naturally, making her look like a lovely doll.
"Buzz!" The piercing sound of a drill blasted out without warning. Yu Sheng suddenly leaped from his bed, dressing, brushing his teeth, washing his face, and carrying his equipment in one go. Guila and Mars, who were seconds behind him, were stunned. This guy must be an experienced veteran, right?! They'd even thought about helping Yu Sheng during the late-night training camp, but now it seemed they were the ones who were slow!
The moon was bright and the stars were sparse. Rows and rows of soldiers were already standing straight and neatly on the training grounds of the special training camp. Gu Luo stood at the front of the team and shouted, "Two hours of man-machine combat tonight! Line up! Target the automated mecha hall! Run!"
Yu Sheng was puzzled. Human vs. computer? Was he going to play against the computer?
It was only when they reached the automated mecha hall that Yu Sheng realized just how perverse this Valiant Combat Team had become. The full name for the "human-machine combat" was actually "human" versus "mecha" fighting with only a photon gun! This, this is way out of the ordinary, isn't it?!
The other team members had obviously experienced this type of training before, and each went to find a room to train in. Yu Sheng hesitated for a moment, then also started walking towards the room, but was stopped by Gu Luo.
"Yusheng! Come here!"
Yu Sheng turned around, trotted over, and saluted, "Captain!"
"Have you ever done a human-machine confrontation before?" Gu Luo asked.
Yu Sheng shook his head honestly, "Captain, no."
"Come on, let's get a room! I'll teach you some basic man-machine combat techniques first!" Man-machine combat is extremely dangerous. Yu Sheng is going through actual combat training without any experience, and there's a high probability that he'll be seriously injured. Gu Luo thought of the condolence message from His Majesty just last night, and a chill ran down his spine. The unconcealed concern for Yu Sheng and the resentful tone in the voice sounded strange, like a woman complaining about her husband who's been away at war!
Shaking his head, Guluo dismissed the horrifying thought from his mind. He watched a ten-meter-tall mecha being teleported into the room and said earnestly to Yu Sheng, "Watch me demonstrate my moves later. First, we need to take advantage of our small and flexible bodies..."
——Mantu Star——
In a conference room decorated in a low-key and luxurious style, full of technology, the atmosphere was extremely low. At the two ends of the long black table, a middle-aged man in a suit and tie sat at one end, his brow furrowed at the moment, while at the other end sat a young man dressed casually and wildly. His handsome face and unrestrained smile made him look as if he didn't take this meeting seriously at all.
"Mr. Moss." The middle-aged man's temples were covered in sweat, and his voice was filled with anger. "Please make your position clear. Now you are begging us to withdraw the arrest warrant, not us begging you!"
"Oh." Moss yawned nonchalantly, unscrewed the bottle of water on the table, and took a sip. "President Ruili, are you sure I'm the one asking you to do this?" He ignored Ruili's unpleasant expression and said with a half-smile, "If I were the one who was the one to cancel it, I'm afraid the Speaker of the Council wouldn't condescend to come to my little place."
The United Interstellar System operates under a parliamentary system, with three council chairmen elected annually from each planet, though planetary rulers do not participate. These three chairmen act as checks and balances, jointly managing the interstellar system. Furthermore, the 10,000-member council reviews and approves matters, ensuring a generally orderly and trouble-free system.
"Of course I'm sure." Rayleigh stretched his slightly fat body and said seriously, "Your Highness is involved in the murder."
"President Rayleigh, are you testing me?" Moss's face suddenly darkened. "To tell you the truth, I do have evidence of the illegal Blue Beast cloning research at the Wuke Base. Otherwise, why do you think I'm acting this way?"
Rayleigh's eyes flickered, and he forced a smile. "Don't be angry, Mr. Moss. We can discuss it. We can discuss it."
Moss snorted softly and heard Rayleigh say, "We will immediately revoke the wanted order for your beloved. This is evidence..."
"Just revoke the wanted order for a small pet?" Moss raised an eyebrow. "President Ruili, are you really stupid or just pretending to be stupid? Do you think I'm someone who would give up my own interests for a pet? What's more..." Moss changed the subject. "Even if I don't revoke it, it seems that you don't have any good solutions except to put pressure on me. Just look at the fact that Emperor Frey of Wenxing is alive and well. Aside from you, the other two presidents and the vast majority of members don't agree to send troops to Wenxing, right?"
A flash of resentment flashed across Rayleigh's eyes. "That's just because they don't realize the benefits of Blue Beast Cloning to the interstellar system! But it doesn't matter. As long as Blue Beast Cloning technology is further advanced..." At this point, Rayleigh smiled, his words tinged with temptation. "Mr. Moss, don't you want to be one of the creators of the future of the interstellar system?"
"Hmm?" Moss narrowed his eyes and said calmly, "Creating interstellar space? I don't have that ability."
Rayleigh laughed. "Mr. Moss is obviously an ambitious man. If you are willing, you have the ability to do it."
"for example?"
"For example, Caesar in your hands." Rayleigh subconsciously rubbed his fingers excitedly, his small eyes almost shrunken with laughter. "In your hands, Caesar will always be just a pet that can please humans, but as long as you cooperate with our R&D team..."
——Onseong Palace——
"...It seems that this R&D team chose to join Rayleigh after Bert's death." Frey sat behind his desk, the personal terminal in his hand emitting a faint beam of light, projecting a three-dimensional image of Moss not far away.
Moss solemnly told Frey the information he had gained from today's meeting, "I heard from Rayleigh that the leader who took over the Blue Beast Clone R&D team is named Narino, and he wanted to introduce him to me."
Frey asked, "Have you figured out the United Star's attitude towards Wenxing?"
"As we previously speculated, with the exception of the Rayleigh Tribe, the other two council chairmen of the United Interstellar are unwilling to confront you over this illusive Blue Beast clone. However, this is only because the R&D team's technology is not mature enough to convince all the council chairmen, and it doesn't mean that the other two council chairmen are not tempted. Once the Blue Beast cloning technology is mature..." Moss paused, "Wenxing will face military danger."
"My stance is firm. They can't get Yu Guang and Yu Sheng right now, so..." Frey's fingers tapped unconsciously on the table a few times, "They must have another blue beast to continue their research, and now, they've set their sights on Caesar."
"Aside from Yu Sheng and Caesar, there are also Queen Qiu En's Weiner and Duke Nan Suo's Lyle. Rayleigh will definitely do his best to get at least one of the four remaining blue beasts in the galaxy." Moss thought for a moment and said, "I can hold Rayleigh back for you, making him think I have a chance and not pursue Qiu En and Nan Suo for the time being. But before that, you must find a way to rescue those two blue star people and eliminate the possibility of the blue beast cloning technology being matured!"
Along with the friction sound of the twisting machine, the humanoid mecha raised its right fist high and smashed it hard at the little guy on the ground in front of it. The little guy dodged the punch with a roll on the spot, but he did not choose to run away. Instead, he grabbed the edge of the humanoid mecha's fist that was about to be retracted. The scene in front of him was changing rapidly, but it did not affect his movements at all. In a few breaths, he flexibly climbed along the arm to the shoulder of the humanoid mecha, then quickly activated the long hook and shot it at the position of the mecha cabin.
With a "ping" sound, the tentacle device on the long hook firmly sucked the outer shell of the mecha, and Yu Sheng suddenly jumped off the shoulder of the humanoid mecha, flipped in the air to avoid the bullet chasing from the chest of the humanoid mecha, and swung to the mecha cabin. The mental force thread surged out of Yu Sheng's body like a rolling wave and poured into the gap of the mecha cabin door.
Sweat broke out on Yu Sheng's forehead. All mechas have anti-psychic invasion devices, and this mecha is also equipped with it.
Three, two, one. With a loud bang, the mecha's hatch was directly removed by mental power. Yu Sheng's figure flashed into the mecha cabin and destroyed the mecha's operating table in a few breaths. As the mecha lost its ability to move, a few large words appeared on the large screen in the room:
S and other records refreshed: 13.67 seconds.
Record breaker: Yu Sheng.
"We won!" "Yu Sheng is the best!" "Invincible!"
After a long silence, the members of the Xiaozhan Brigade who were watching burst into cheers. Gu Luo was quite proud, after all, Yu Sheng was taught by him personally.
This is the seventh day of Yu Shenglai’s special training camp.
If everyone was still curious about Yu Sheng's identity as a blue beast and skeptical of his abilities when he first arrived, now everyone has completely put aside Yu Sheng's identity as a blue beast. Aside from his blood always being red, there's nothing else that's different about him! No, there are differences too. Yu Sheng's abilities are incredibly strong!
"Captain Guluo! The previous record holder of Alpha Team hopes to meet Yu Sheng!" The staff of the automatic mecha hall announced, "Look..."
"Ask Yu Sheng!" Gu Luo said, just as Yu Sheng, sweating profusely, walked over to them. The team members beat his chest, patted his shoulders, and rubbed his head. Yu Sheng collapsed and said, "Hey, hey, don't take advantage of you guys being taller than me and do whatever you want!"
"Hahahaha!" Everyone burst into laughter. Indeed, due to his bloodline, Yu Sheng was the shortest member of the Xiao Zhan Brigade. Even the doll Guila, who was often teased, was taller than Yu Sheng.
But Yu Sheng won everyone's admiration and respect with his strength and sincerity.
"Yusheng, the members of the Alpha Team you're competing against want to meet you!"
"Okay." Yu Sheng wiped the sweat from his head. He heard that this Alpha member was very old and should have retired, but he almost controlled the records of various projects, so the higher-ups made an exception and let him stay in the team to carry out tasks.
Of course, his records have been broken by Yu Sheng, who is now the champion of all training events in the special training camp.
The door of the room was opened, and an older man with a hideous scar on his face walked towards him.
Yu Sheng was stunned, and the man was also stunned.
"It's you!"
Yu Sheng's eyes narrowed instantly. What was going on? The gang leader from outside City X had suddenly transformed into a special forces soldier under Frey's command. Yu Sheng couldn't help but think, "Uncle Kuchi seems to still remember me... Can you explain it to me..."
"Ahaha! I suddenly remembered that I have something to do! I'm leaving now!" Scarface turned around and ran away.
"Stop!" Yu Sheng immediately chased after him.
The remaining group of teammates from the Xiaozhan Brigade looked at each other, all with confused expressions.
Yu Sheng chased Scarface for nearly two-thirds of the special training camp, attracting countless people's attention, and finally pinned him down. Those who didn't know would think that the police were catching a thief thousands of miles away!
Scarface panted heavily, and said as he panted, "I'm getting old, you're too amazing..."
Yu Sheng was also so tired that his breathing was uneven, but he was a little better than Scarface. He glared at him and said, "Confess and I'll give you leniency! Were you sent by Frey to monitor and follow me?"
"Unjust! I wasn't the one responsible for monitoring you!" Scarface chuckled. "I've been lurking around the Wuke base for years. To avoid being discovered, I rarely contacted His Majesty. When I suddenly received His Majesty's order, I was shocked. I thought His Majesty had already made arrangements on Mantu Star and was preparing to take down the Wuke base in one fell swoop."
"Then...what is your Majesty's order?" Yu Sheng asked.
"I'll do my best to protect you and dissuade you, but if you insist on going..." Scarface paused, "I'll provide you with assistance."
“…” Yu Sheng felt mixed emotions.
Ah Xiao must have been very reluctant to put himself in danger. But he still let go, giving himself the greatest freedom, yet always appearing in front of him when he was covered in bruises.
When Yu Sheng returned to the dormitory, he was still silent, which seemed a little strange to Guila and Mars. After all, Yu Sheng was a record breaker, so why did he look so unhappy?
"Yusheng, did you have a conflict with Uncle Kuchi?" Guila approached cautiously, "Don't worry about it. Uncle Kuchi is actually a very good person. You'll understand if you spend more time with him."
Yu Sheng shook his head and smiled, "Don't worry, it has nothing to do with Uncle Kuchi."
Mars was about to ask more when there was a knock on the dormitory door. He opened the door and saw Gu Luo with a serious face.
"Captain, how..."
"Qila, Mars, His Majesty wants to see you."
Guila and Mars' eyes lit up. To be summoned by His Majesty was an honor to them. "Yes! Captain!"
"Wait!" Yu Sheng frowned, having a bad feeling, "Your Majesty didn't call me?"
Gu Luo shook his head and said, "Rest well in the dormitory. You still have training tomorrow."
"Can--"
The door closed with a bang. Yu Sheng was stunned for a moment, then gritted his teeth and said, "Wen Xiao, what are you going to do behind my back again?"
After cursing inwardly, Yu Sheng directly took out the terminal equipped after arriving at Wenxing, clicked on the word "Frei", and dialed.
Frey responded immediately, and three-dimensional light appeared in front of Frey.
"Fregerik, you asked Guila to meet Mars, what's the matter?" Yu Sheng went straight to the point.
Frey pinched his brows. He didn't want to deceive Yu Sheng. "Carry out the mission."
"What mission? Is it related to me?" Yu Sheng's tone softened. "If it has nothing to do with me, I won't bother you anymore."
Frey was silent for a while, then he sighed and said, "Rescue the surviving Blue Star people."
Yu Sheng's body suddenly tensed up. "So, it's still related to me."
