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.<...
Yan Hao spent 6,500 credits in one go, all of which were used to buy the parts that Black Soul needed to replace. Yan Hao didn't know how to repair it, so he could only buy it at the base. The base was expensive to begin with, and Black Soul was a level 6 mecha, so the price was even higher. And he had to ask the bearded captain in the materials room to buy these parts.
Yan Hao spent two hours replacing all the damaged mechas on Black Soul. He also replaced all the ones that didn't seem to be seriously damaged with new ones. As long as he couldn't be 100% sure that the parts were safe, he would not leave them on Black Soul for repair. He wanted Black Soul to enter the battlefield in the best condition and become Sheng Heng's most solid partner.
Compared to the Dark Soul, the Barbarian Bull had basically no damage. Yan Hao symbolically replenished it with two level 6 energy blocks and returned the Barbarian Bull to Cheng Wenkang.
Afterwards, Sheng Heng said goodbye to Yan Hao, and left the base with Cheng Wenkang to continue the assessment. However, Sun Chu and others who were injured with them were not as lucky as them, and had to lie in the base medical room for three more days before they recovered.
Day 6, wild camp.
As usual, students from the Mecha Manufacturing Department gathered around the campfire to see today's score update.
"Sheng Heng killed 802 Zergs today, and Cheng Wenkang also killed 300. Fortunately, there are only two people in their team. If there was one more, they would have lost the first place again."
After the mecha was repaired, Sheng Heng and Cheng Wenkang returned to continue the assessment. In just two and a half days, the two of them had caught up with nearly 3,000 points, and the total score was now 3,468 points. After six days of assessment, except for the Sun Chu team who was still resting in the medical room, the scores of other teams were basically above 4,000. The first place now had 4,902 points. Even if Sheng Heng and Cheng Wenkang could maintain a growth of 1,000 points a day, it would be impossible to surpass 4,902 in one day. What's more, while they were earning points, other groups were also earning points.
"Sheng Heng is really working hard. I haven't seen them return to the camp in the past two days."
"Do you think it's necessary? He has already secured first place in the individual points list. The team points can't catch up anyway." Although Yan Hao spent more than 6,000 points at once, after two days of pursuit, Sheng Heng's individual points have once again returned to the top of the list.
"He doesn't deserve to be number one on the singles list." Someone suddenly said in a sarcastic tone.
"Zhu Wencheng, you must be unhappy about being ranked second." Just before noon, Zhu Wencheng was still the first in the individual points list, but now, Sheng Heng has surpassed him by several hundred points.
Zhu Wencheng was not very popular in the class, but he was quite capable. He was lucky in this test, his mecha did not suffer much damage, and he killed many Zergs. In addition, the team led by the squad leader Sun Chu was completely wiped out, so his points jumped to the top of the list. He was so proud of himself that he was killed by Sheng Heng within three days.
"Dark Soul is a level six mecha with the most advanced mimicry driving system. It's not fair to compare him with us." Zhu Wencheng said.
The news that Black Soul had replaced its simulated driving system spread throughout the Mecha Department as soon as Sheng Heng said it. This news also caused quite a stir in the class at the time.
"But Sheng Heng killed a level six mutant insect alone. Just based on this point, his strength is far beyond ours. I think Sheng Heng deserves the first place in the standings." Someone said.
"That's because he has a level six mecha. If we have one, we wouldn't necessarily be worse than him." Zhu Wencheng said.
"Zhu Wencheng, how can you be so shameless. With your A-level mental power, you would probably kneel on the spot if you met a level six mutant insect. How dare you talk about killing it?" Cheng Wenkang's slightly fat body walked out from behind the bushes.
"Fatty, what did you call me?" Zhu Wencheng shouted angrily.
"Didn't you hear me? I'll call it again, Zhu Wencheng, pig pig pig~~" Cheng Wenkang shouted "pig" three times in a row at the top of his voice.
"Cheng Wenkang, I want to duel with you!" Zhu Wencheng was furious and raised his hand to summon his mecha. He said murderously.
"I'm here to fight with you." Sheng Heng walked out from behind Cheng Wenkang and looked at Zhu Wencheng calmly.
Zhu Wencheng's murderous face immediately turned the color of liver the moment he saw Sheng Heng.
After Sheng Heng appeared, Cheng Wenkang moved to the side very consciously, and after Sheng Heng saw the extremely eye-catching mecha behind Zhu Wencheng, he raised his hand and released the black soul from the space button.
Two mechas, one blue and one black, stood in the campfire camp, facing each other, and the atmosphere instantly became solemn.
"Sheng Heng, what do you mean?"
"Didn't you want to fight?" Sheng Heng pretended to be confused.
"You are a level 6 mecha, and my Blue Moon is only level 4. It's not fair at all."
"Fair? What is fair? Would it be fair if I also changed to a level 4 mecha and fought with you?"
“That’s what it is.”
"What about my hand injury?" Sheng Heng sneered, "For the sake of fairness, can I also let you break your hand so that it becomes the same as mine? That would be fair."
"How can they be the same?" Zhu Wencheng subconsciously clenched his hands.
"Why are they different? Mechas are used for fighting, and so are hands. Why do you say that our brother Heng is unfair just because he has a good mecha? But you have a pair of healthy hands, so we can't ask you to be fair?" Cheng Wenkang said sarcastically, "You are the most important person in the world, so you decide what is fair?"
“You…you guys…”
"What's wrong with a level 6 mecha? What's wrong with it being higher than yours? If you have the ability, go get yourself a level 6 mecha with mimicry. Not to mention level 6, even level 7 or 8, as long as you can get it, it's your ability." Cheng Wenkang scolded, "Don't be jealous of others when you don't have the ability yourself."
"Fight me if you want." Zhu Wencheng was unable to refute Cheng Wenkang's retort and could only bite the bullet and go ahead, "But I challenged Cheng Wenkang to a duel. Cheng Wenkang, let your bull out..."
"..."Everyone.
This is so shameless.
"I was originally challenging Cheng Wenkang. If you want to fight me, wait until I'm done fighting Cheng Wenkang. Everything has a first come, first served order."
Everyone around him could see what Zhu Wencheng was planning. As long as he fought with Cheng Wenkang tonight, Sheng Heng would never fight him again. If they did, it would be like the two of them teaming up to bully him. And tomorrow was the last day of the assessment, and then he would return to school. Back at school, even if Sheng Heng challenged him to a competition again, he would lose, and it would not affect his assessment points.
"You're right. Everything should be based on first come first served." Sheng Heng nodded and took a step forward. "Then let me settle the previous accounts first."
"Before... what was the previous account?" Zhu Wencheng subconsciously stepped back.
"I remember you suspected that I cheated in the test." Sheng Heng reminded.
Zhu Wencheng's face changed, and he also remembered: "I didn't know your mecha had a mimic driving system at that time."
"Did I cheat?" Sheng Heng asked.
Zhu Wencheng gritted his teeth and said with some humiliation: "I was wrong. I shouldn't have doubted you."
"You can apologize, but shouldn't you show some sincerity?" Sheng Heng said.
"What else do you want?!" Zhu Wencheng said harshly.
"Give me all your points and I will forgive you." Sheng Hengti requested.
"What did you say?! Why should I give you my points?" Zhu Wencheng was currently ranked second in the standings with 1,068 points.
"Then let's fight." Sheng Heng tapped his finger lightly on the optical computer, and the Black Soul's cockpit opened automatically. The sound of the cabin door opening was particularly clear in the dark night.
Before getting on the mecha, Sheng Heng suddenly remembered something, and he kindly reminded Zhu Wencheng: "By the way, I spent 6,500 points to repair Black Soul before, and I don't know if your 2,000 points are enough to repair Blue Moon. I will try my best to pay attention."
"Sheng Heng!" Zhu Wencheng could no longer fail to understand the hidden meaning behind Sheng Heng's words. He was using the fact that he had accused him of cheating to extort his points. If he didn't give them to him, he would use the Black Soul to destroy Blue Moon.
Although Zhu Wencheng's family was not poor, they were not rich either. A level 4 mecha was a considerable expense for his family. If Lan Yue was gone, he would not have a mecha of his own for at least a year. And as a mecha student, how could he attend classes without a mecha?
"I'll give you the points!" Zhu Wencheng had no choice but to compromise.
Sheng Heng turned around and closed the cockpit of the Black Soul at the same time: "Turn."
Zhu Wencheng clenched his fists tightly, his eyes almost popping out blood, but he still raised his left hand and transferred his points from the optical computer terminal.
The moment the points were transferred successfully, the individual points ranking and the total points ranking changed at the same time. Zhu Wencheng fell from the second place in the individual points ranking to the last place, and his team also fell to the second to last place because of his lack of points. At the same time, Sheng Heng's team's total points went up and stopped at fifth place. Although it was only fifth place, the gap with the first place was only 98 points.
98 points is not difficult to achieve for Sheng Heng, who owns a level 6 mecha and kills more and more insects every day.
Sheng Heng had no intention of taking first place in the team, but now that he was just a little short of the points, he couldn't help but want to try his best. So on the morning of the second day, he and Cheng Wenkang left the camp first and went to the place with the most Zerg.
The other top four teams knew that it would be difficult for them to get first place according to Sheng Heng's insect killing speed in the past two days, but they did not give up and hunted very hard. Until eight o'clock in the evening, when Xiao Tianhan announced the end of the assessment and called everyone back to the base, Sheng Heng's team climbed back to the top of the overall score list.
Surpassed the second place by three points.
Back at the base, the second team member saw Cheng Wenkang and said unwillingly, "Only three bugs are missing?"
"Okay, don't be unwilling. Even if I ask you to kill thirty more, the first place will still be ours." Cheng Wenkang comforted.
"What do you mean?" the man was puzzled.
"Did you see the person walking in front?" Cheng Wenkang pointed at the front of the crowd, where Yan Hao was walking towards Sheng Heng.
"Your team's mecha maker?"
"A level six energy block made by Xiaohao can be sold for more than a hundred points each. If he sells one at random, it will be enough for you to kill for a day." Cheng Wenkang said.
“…”
At this time, the two of them slowly approached Sheng Heng and just happened to hear them talking.
"I was thinking that if we didn't have enough points, I would sell the remaining twenty level six energy blocks, so that we could still be first. But I didn't expect you and Senior Cheng to catch up with the points in just three days."
"Energy blocks are not for sale." Sheng Heng said.
"Yeah." Ever since he knew that Qin Hu's captain was Sima Mingxuan, Yan Hao no longer wanted to sell the extra energy blocks to him.
"!!" This isn't just a difference of three points, this is a difference of more than two thousand points.
