As for an engagement, forget it. As a top student in the mecha department, Kerry always felt that he didn't want to marry a soft and gentle girl from the command department. For him, a strong and feisty girl from the same mecha department would be more suitable. After all, if they were to fight, they could go all out against each other.

Don't let Kerry's calm and composed demeanor fool you; he actually prefers very feisty girls.

He thought for a moment, then extended his hand to Shen Wangshu.

Shen Wangshu breathed a sigh of relief that he wouldn't get engaged to her, smiled, and placed her petite hand on his long, well-defined hand.

Luo Li peeked out and then pressed her paw onto Shen Wangshu's hand, shaking it forcefully.

“We don’t need to go back to the Federation. We’re already true friends now,” Shen Wangshu said with a smile.

A genuine smile appeared on Kerry's face as he murmured, "True friends." His gaze softened as he looked at Shen Wangshu, whose tall, slender face held an unmistakable longing. He said softly, "My brother once said that the day I have true friends, friends I can entrust my life to, is the day I truly grow up."

As he said this, he showed no fear of impending death, only relief and ease, and smiled at Shen Wangshu and Luo Li, saying, "Thank you."

May he have experienced true friendship before he dies.

“You’ve never smiled like this before.” Lori blinked at the boy who was now smiling from time to time, completely different from his usual calm demeanor at school.

“I hope to appear more mature in my brother’s eyes.” Kerry’s gaze softened.

"Is that Admiral Karls?" Lori asked curiously.

"General Karls?" Shen Wangshu couldn't help but feel puzzled.

Field, Rowland, Carls—these are the family names. Everyone is addressed by their real name in public, such as Alice, Lori, or Kerry.

But it's quite unusual that this older brother of Kerry uses his surname as his first name.

“Because my brother is the representative of Karls, the glory of the family,” Kerry said proudly.

“That’s right. Karls is the most decorated general in the Federation, even more respected than General Effie. It’s said that he is very likely to become the youngest marshal in the next few years.”

Lori also held Kerry's older brother in high esteem, as if he were the most respectable person in her heart. Shen Wangshu, however, finally understood why her sister insisted on marrying her off to Kerry. It was because the Karls family had produced a powerful figure, who was more likely to become the Marshal in charge of the Federal Armed Forces. Such a status would guarantee Alice a stable life, and she would never have to worry about the downfall of her husband's family.

Shen Wangshu took a breath and smiled.

“From now on, you will also be a source of glory for Kars,” she said to Kerry with a smile.

The boy's fair and handsome face slowly flushed with a bright blush.

The primary consort of the Qing Dynasty.

He nodded and smiled slightly at Shen Wangshu.

At this moment, the warship's energy shield had been activated, protecting it. Shen Wangshu saw the huge light screen trembling, displaying clear images of several warships, clearly indicating that these warships were rapidly approaching. Their energy cannons were firing incessantly, creating a bright field of vision in the dark sea of ​​stars; even without radar, the shadows of those warships could be seen.

Every now and then, a warship would explode and fall into the dark sea of ​​stars. Shen Wangshu quietly counted them in her mind, and then felt a slight weight in her heart. She closed her eyes and sighed softly.

Even with all the artillery fire, the enemy has just too many warships.

There are seven more.

However, the energy on a warship is not inexhaustible.

Although the energy cannon is powerful, it consumes too much energy. I'm afraid that after a few rounds, it will run out of energy to replenish.

By then, the warships won't even have the energy to set sail and escape.

The enemy was not passively taking hits either; countless energy beams poured onto the warship, and the huge energy shield vibrated amidst the gunfire, causing the entire warship to shake.

Shen Wangshu looked up at the terrifying sight of the artillery fire almost crashing down in front of him. His gaze darkened, and he took a deep breath as he watched the warship struggling to replenish its energy shield, as if the warship itself had been hit by the artillery fire. Gritting his teeth, he said to the middle-aged teacher, whose face was grim and who had clearly also noticed the problem, "I request that you stop replenishing the energy shield and attack with full force." At this moment, they still had to defend the warship, and their already meager energy reserves were becoming even more strained.

The middle-aged teacher hesitated for a moment.

He looked tremblingly at the young and energetic children behind him, but he couldn't bring himself to turn off the energy shield.

If the energy shield is depleted and the ship is attacked by artillery fire again, it is very likely to be sunk.

"Who agreed to shut it down?" he asked hoarsely. This was a path that would almost lead to mutual destruction.

The boys standing quietly in front of the control panel exchanged glances and silently raised their hands.

Amidst the deafening sound of a massive energy surge, a calm smile appeared on the middle-aged teacher's face.

“You are all the best warriors,” he shouted, his huge scar contorting.

Shen Wangshu couldn't help but raise his head and reveal a proud smile.

“Of course we are!” Lori shouted.

She and Shen Wangshu were the only two girls left on the warship. One was delicate and slender, and the other was full of vitality, but at this moment, they seemed to be connected by their very breath.

Amidst the roar of battle, the middle-aged teacher laughed loudly, pressed a button, and then all the cannons continued to charge, firing wildly at the enemy. His eyes gleamed brightly, and he shouted that all the cannons should be fired at the flagship. No matter how much firepower hit the warship, he remained unmoved, letting the warship be attacked, and only unleashing all the firepower on the flagship.
