Before he died, Yan Hao could never understand why his parents had always favored his younger brother. They spoiled his brother, and wouldn’t pay any attention to himself, no matter what he did.<...
At the air port of Planet S36, a small spaceship was slowly landing. On the spaceship, Yan Hao was packing his things and preparing to disembark following his teacher and senior brother. At this moment, he was a little nervous and a little excited. Before coming here, he did not tell Sheng Heng, and he did not know whether he would be able to see him after getting off the spaceship.
"Are you nervous?" Babi Chong saw that Yan Hao was nervous.
"A little bit." Yan Hao nodded honestly.
Elder Zhong was standing in front of them. Hearing Yan Hao's nervousness, he said with concern, "This is the front line. The atmosphere is indeed a bit more solemn and murderous. This is your first time here, so you need two days to adapt. Ba Yun, keep an eye on your junior brother for the next two days."
"Teacher, I find that you have changed." said the Babiworm.
"What's wrong?" Mr. Zhong frowned.
"When I first came to the military advisor's base, I was also very nervous. Not only did you not comfort me, you also scolded me for being useless. How come you became like a different person when facing my junior brother?" Babi Chong's face was full of accusations, and the word "biased" was almost written on his face.
"Were you also a freshman at that time?" asked Mr. Zhong.
“……”He had graduated from college for more than a year at that time.
"Can you teach yourself the three-generation system in seven days and work out the improved formula in half a day?" Mr. Zhong continued to ask.
"..." If he could, would he have to stay up late for seven days without taking a shower to do research?
"Can you learn any knowledge point by looking at the materials yourself? You don't even need to ask me?" When Mr. Zhong asked the third question, he glanced at Yan Hao inadvertently.
"...Teacher, I was wrong. Jealousy blinded my mind." Babi confessed.
"Hmph!" Mr. Zhong turned around and said nothing more.
Seeing that Mr. Zhong was no longer arguing with him, Babi Chong quietly wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. Yan Hao, on the other hand, was thinking back to the glance the teacher had given him just now. For some reason, he always felt that that glance was a little... resentful?
Did I do something to displease the teacher?
"It's okay, just follow me and I'll block you." Seeing Yan Hao's serious expression, Babi Chong thought he was afraid and said considerately.
"Thank you, senior brother." Yan Hao was not actually afraid, but he didn't want to refuse the kindness of the people around him. This kind of kindness made him feel warm in his heart.
"Don't be polite, but I can help you with this kind of thing, but I can't do anything else." When Babi Chong said the second half of the sentence, he lowered his voice a little, as if he was afraid that Mr. Zhong, who was walking in front, would hear it.
Yan Hao blinked, somewhat confused.
"The one who came to pick us up is Major General Sheng Zhuo. He is the eldest brother of your family. Although General Sheng is not in the base now, he will be back in a few days. You are going to meet his parents soon. Aren't you nervous?" Babi Chong whispered.
After being reminded by the Babi bug, Yan Hao suddenly realized it. He gasped and his eyes widened in shock.
"I...what should I do?" Yan Hao asked for help.
"I have no experience in this matter, but just be sweet-mouthed." This is the best the Babe can do.
Sweet talk, how sweet talk? If I had known earlier, I would not have planned any surprises. I would have told the senior in advance that I would be coming and he would have made all the arrangements.
At this time, the three of them had already walked to the hatch and were waiting for it to open. After a slight vibration, the spacecraft landed smoothly and the hatch opened. Old Zhong walked down first, followed by Yan Hao and Babi Chong.
Outside the spaceship, a group of neatly dressed soldiers were waiting in line. Among them, a handsome young man with a cool temperament stepped forward and saluted to Zhong Lao: "Major General of the Federation Ares Army, Sheng Zhuo, on behalf of all the soldiers of the Ares Army, welcomes you."
As the young man finished speaking, the team of soldiers behind him saluted in unison. Each of them stood tall and imposing, and they all looked like elite soldiers.
"Major General Sheng, these are my two disciples, Ba Yun and Yan Hao." Elder Zhong took the opportunity to introduce the two disciples behind him.
"Hello, Major General Sheng, I am Ba Yun." Babi Chong nodded politely.
Sheng Zhuo returned a military salute.
"Hello, brother. I'm Yan Hao." Yan Hao said nervously.
Sheng Zhuo was stunned for a moment, then his eyes moved and were filled with smiles.
"What's your name?!" Old Master Zhong frowned. This young disciple usually looked very smart, so why was he so confused at this moment? Who would call someone "big brother" affectionately as soon as they met each other?
"It's okay, there's nothing wrong in calling you brother." Sheng Zhuo smiled at Yan Hao with good intentions.
Yan Hao suddenly became more nervous when he was stared at.
Seeing that Sheng Zhuo didn't mind and his little disciple lowered his head in self-blame, Master Zhong didn't dwell on the matter any further.
"I'll take you three to your residence to rest for a while, and then I'll take you to visit the base later." Sheng Zhuo said.
"No need, let's go directly to the base. The third-generation system still needs debugging after being updated. You should have prepared the first batch of experimenters." asked Mr. Zhong.
"Of course." Although it was the first time he met Zhong Lao, Sheng Zhuo had heard about some of Zhong Lao's ways of doing things. Knowing that he was honest, he didn't bother to be polite. According to Zhong Lao's request, he changed his destination and went directly to the base training ground.
It was still half an hour's journey from the port to the base training ground. Sheng Zhuo arranged a separate car for Mr. Zhong and the other two, and he drove another car in front to lead the way.
In the car, Yan Hao kept his head down. Master Zhong thought that he was scared by his harsh tone just now, and he couldn't help but regret it. Master Zhong knew that he had a quick temper and was prone to scolding people when he got angry. The more he taught his apprentices, the more he scolded them. So over time, his apprentices all knew his temper and had a strong ability to recover after being scolded. But Yan Hao was different. Since he came to the research institute, this kid could learn everything by himself with the information. He was completely self-taught and didn't need him as a teacher at all. For this reason, Master Zhong was really upset for a long time.
Was he really fierce just now? Probably not. How could this kid have such a poor ability to withstand pressure? How could he be so upset by a harsh tone? Didn't old man Pang scold him?
"Well, my tone just now was indeed a bit harsh." After thinking it over again and again, Master Zhong decided to comfort his injured little disciple.
Opposite him, Babi Chong heard this and immediately looked as if he had seen a ghost. What's going on? Is the teacher apologizing?
Mr. Zhong felt uncomfortable when being stared at by the worm and glared at him fiercely. The worm lowered his head decisively.
Yan Hao raised his head and blinked inexplicably. Only then did Master Zhong see clearly that his young apprentice was chatting with someone via text message with his head down.
"..."Mr. Zhong.
He picked up the document next to him and started reading it, decisively erasing his previous memory.
When Yan Hao saw that Mr. Zhong suddenly ignored him again, he turned to look at his senior brother Babi Chong, and saw that Babi Chong also kept his head down. He didn't know how to respond for a moment, so he lowered his head again to send a message to Sheng Heng.
Yes, Yan Hao was just sending a message to Sheng Heng. No surprise could compare to the panic of meeting the parents.
On the other side, Sheng Zhuo was sitting in a military hovercraft, video chatting with his younger brother. In the video, Sheng Heng's eyes were moving back and forth, as if he was looking for something.
"Don't look for him, he's not in this car." Sheng Zhuo said unhappily.
Although Sheng Heng is his younger brother, he is not a member of the military after all, so Sheng Zhuo did not let him attend the airport pick-up this time.
"How long will it take you to get back to the base?" Sheng Heng asked.
"Mr. Zhong has to go to the training ground to upgrade the system first. Even if he returns, you won't be able to see him." As soon as Sheng Zhuo saw Sheng Heng's background, he knew that he was near the residence arranged for Mr. Zhong at the base.
Sheng Heng felt a little disappointed, but he did not ask his elder brother to open a back door for him to go to the training ground.
"Your little boyfriend... is quite well behaved." Sheng Zhuo couldn't help laughing when he thought of Yan Hao calling him "big brother" when they met just now. He blushed when he was called, so well-behaved, and yet, people couldn't help but want to bully him.
"What's wrong?" Sheng Heng intuitively felt that something must have happened just now, otherwise his elder brother would not suddenly make such a comment.
"It's okay, I'm just being a good kid, don't bully me." Sheng Zhuo said.
"You don't need me to tell you." How could he bear to bully the person he finally caught up with? As he said that, Sheng Heng's expression suddenly changed, "Brother, I don't want to talk to you for now."
"What's wrong?" Sheng Zhuo asked puzzledly.
"Xiaohao is looking for me." After saying that, Sheng Heng hung up.
“…” Sheng Zhuo.
Forget your brother when you see a beautiful woman.
Sheng Heng clicked on the message Yan Hao sent him: [Senior, I’m here to see you. ]
Sheng Heng smiled: [I know.]
Yan Hao: [How do you know? ]
Sheng Heng: [Your name is on Mr. Zhong’s entourage list.]
Yan Hao felt that he had worked in vain: [So you already knew it, I was thinking of giving you a surprise. ]
Sheng Heng imagined Yan Hao's annoyance and replied with a smile: [I was already very surprised when I saw the list. ]
Yan Hao: [I just saw your elder brother.]
Sheng Heng: [He saw you, too.]
Yan Hao: [He didn’t say anything about me, did he? ]
Sheng Heng was puzzled: [What happened? ]
Yan Hao: [I was too nervous, so I was a little rude just now.]
Yan Hao just thought about it. If Sheng Zhuo didn't know the relationship between him and the senior, then he was a little abrupt when he called him "big brother". It was all because of the sixth senior brother, who made him talk sweetly. The only way he could think of to talk sweetly was to call him "big brother". He didn't even think about whether the occasion was appropriate.
Sheng Heng: [Why are you so nervous? ]
Yan Hao blushed and typed out four words: [Meet the parents.]
Sheng Heng was startled, then teased: [Xiao Hao, are you proposing marriage? ]
After sending this message, Yan Hao didn't reply for a long time. Sheng Heng thought he had scared Yan Hao, so he quickly sent a message to explain: [Just kidding, don't be nervous, my brother likes you very much, when you are done, I will introduce you to each other in private. I just happen to have something else and I want to ask you for help. ]
Yan Hao lowered his head again and saw this sentence. He immediately ignored Sheng Heng's teasing about proposing marriage and asked: [What help? ]
Sheng Heng: [Let’s talk when we meet.]
After that, the two did not continue chatting. The suspension train soon arrived at the base. At the urging of Mr. Zhong, everyone went directly to the training ground. In the training ground, a team of 20 elite soldiers were already waiting inside with their mechas.
"Mr. Zhong, this is Diya, a ninth-level mecha manufacturer. He will be mainly responsible for the system upgrade this time." Sheng Zhuo introduced a middle-aged man in his fifties in the main control room of the training ground to Mr. Zhong.
Diya was very excited when he saw Mr. Zhong, but his good professionalism allowed him to control his excitement. After a brief greeting, he began to introduce: "Mr. Zhong, we have prepared a total of 20 mechas, including five each of level 5, level 6, level 7, and level 8. They are the best warriors of our Ares Group, and the mechas are all in the best condition. The systems in the mechas have also been connected to the main brain in the control room, and the systems can be upgraded at any time."
"Well, let's start now." After Mr. Zhong finished speaking, Yan Hao and Babi Chong walked directly to Mr. Zhong. The three masters and apprentices took over the main brain of the control room and began to upgrade the system.
About half an hour later, twenty mechas completed the synchronous upgrade, and then it was time for actual combat testing. Although they had done actual combat experiments in the research institute, there is an essential difference between actual combat in the research institute and actual combat on the battlefield, so the data here is the most accurate and complete. The reason why Mr. Zhong has to lead the team himself every time he upgrades the system is because this last level of testing must be done by him personally. Only when he is sure that there are no more problems will he synchronize the data to other lands and let them complete the upgrade of the mecha warriors of other legions.
This test lasted seven or eight hours. During this time, Sheng Zhuo tried to ask Mr. Zhong and the others to go eat first, but Mr. Zhong ignored him. It was not until the three abnormal values detected were resolved that Mr. Zhong agreed to take a rest.
After Mr. Zhong left, Diya and his men stared at the BUG that had just been fixed in the system, with amazement on their faces.
"Three newly detected bugs were all fixed in just two hours?"
"If it were me, I probably wouldn't be able to correct it in two months. The movement values of an eighth-level mecha are so huge that it would take several days to calculate them."
"Did you see the boy named Yan Hao just now? It takes only half an hour for a person to finish one value. Is he a humanoid optical computer?"
"That's why people can worship Master Zhong as their teacher."
"Okay, let's continue testing and help Mr. Zhong complete the system upgrade as soon as possible, so we can have time to ask questions."
On the other side, Yan Hao separated from his teacher and senior brother and returned to his room. As soon as he entered the room, he saw a familiar figure waiting inside.
