Even Wan Xingyan, who already had a good understanding of the cockpit, couldn't bear to see this situation.
He fully understood how demanding the requirements were to select a mecha pilot who was excellent in every aspect.
After all, the Snow Woman is a product of the world's best researchers and engineers, and it certainly won't become a weapon in the hands of mediocre people.
Unfortunately, the researchers present and Jiang Cheng knew the harsh realities, but the thousands of students did not.
The suffering we endure now is for survival on the battlefield, for the future of countless people.
No one wants to see the once lush, green land, with its towering forests, now littered with bones, civilization utterly destroyed. We want to hear the laughter of children, to still be able to sing nursery rhymes to the mountains, their sweet murmurs echoing since ancient times, continuing to echo until the planet's natural end.
May the universe remember this carbon-based life form that existed for a fleeting moment, and leave its mark on the galaxy.
This is what Jiangcheng and countless others will always pursue.
We came here, and not only that, we left behind something magnificent.
Even the faintest light should still be considered light.
Therefore, Wan Xingyan said in a stern voice, "Number 74, now remove your restraints and come down so that the next student can go up!"
However, after she finished speaking, Zhao Xuerou, who was sitting there, did not react at all. She remained as wooden as a statue, unable to focus her gaze.
Her eyes were obscured by her loose hair, appearing cloudy and lifeless.
"Number 74! Untie yourself! Get down!" he repeated.
The shout startled Zhao Xuerou awake. Her body trembled violently, frightening those below, who remembered that they too would be training soon.
Zhao Xuerou's hand trembled slightly as she tentatively reached for the button next to her. It was something that should have been easy to touch, but it took her a long time to find it.
With a "snap," the restraints tightened behind her, freeing her.
She tried to stand up, supporting herself on both sides with her hands, but the first time she tried, she couldn't stand up. Instead, she fell back down, her face deathly pale, devoid of any color.
At this moment, Jiangcheng fell silent.
This is a test she had to go through. No one could help her except herself. Only by taking one step with her tenacious willpower could she take countless steps afterward.
If you can't even get used to the cockpit, how can you control a snow woman that's hundreds of meters long?
Zhao Xuerou closed her eyes in pain. She felt the whole world spinning, and that she wasn't standing on solid alloy plates, but on a swamp where one step would sink in and never be able to get out. This feeling was like a quagmire that held her back from getting up.
Don't do that, calm down, stand up, you can do it!
It definitely can!
She kept telling herself this.
You need to know how many people are watching your performance right now. After so many days of hard work, you've finally reached the Federation. Don't you want to stay? If you can't even take this step, is your resolve really that weak?
What happened to the determination that I had repeated countless times in my mind?
The weakness that had not experienced any setbacks for the previous twenty years and the sudden surge of courage launched a fierce battle, standing in the ocean of her consciousness looking at each other and hysterically biting at one another.
Only by killing one of them can we truly stand up.
No one knew how much pain and torment Zhao Xuerou was going through at that time.
Her eyes suddenly reddened, and she used her strength to stand up.
Although she was swaying and looked like she was about to fall, she still tried her best to adapt, suppressing the sour feeling rising in her throat and gritting her teeth.
Countless experienced engineers may not be able to overcome this challenge, let alone a girl who has just turned twenty.
After Zhao Xuerou steadied herself, she took a step forward. All she could see in front of her was the narrow hatch and the descending ladder.
In a daze, I could see many figures, looking at me with curiosity, pity, or surprise.
As I walk down this path, you... Jiangcheng.
You should be able to see how strong I am.
I'm different now; you'll notice the change...
I can do so much for you.
She's no longer that naive girl...
Zhao Xuerou gave a wry smile, bent over slightly, placed her hands on her waist, bit her lip hard, and took a deep breath.
She seemed to be unable to see anything; the world had become blurry.
She walked forward, which was undoubtedly the most difficult stretch of road in her life. It was only a few meters long, but it felt incredibly long.
With each step I took, my consciousness became a little more hazy.
Finally, Zhao Xuerou arrived at the cabin door. She touched the escalator and was watched by countless eyes below. She stood very high, clutching the hem of her clothes.
With the support of the handrail, going down the stairs became much easier.
The sweat in my palms almost soaked the corner of my clothes.
Jiang Cheng, inside the glass observation room, suddenly frowned, pursed his lips, and stared directly at Zhao Xuerou's figure.
"Tap...tap...tap."
She took one step after another, without anyone urging her, and it took her a long time to finally stand on the hard ground and reach out her hand.
Ke Bing, who was in second place, instinctively went over and helped her.
No matter how many times the two had argued, she still wanted to lend a helping hand at this moment, and even felt admiration.
Their arms were clasped together, and a weak voice came from Zhao Xuerou's mouth, "Stop, I need to rest for a while."
"What?"
Because it was too faint, Ke Bing paused for a moment and didn't hear it clearly.
"I said I... ugh!"
Before she could finish her sentence, Zhao Xuerou grabbed Ke Bing's hand and suddenly vomited, a scene that caught all the students behind her completely off guard.
Suddenly, Ke Bing felt a warm liquid covering her front body, mixed with an unpleasant smell.
The woman he was supporting ignored him and vomited violently!
It felt like he was about to vomit out all his internal organs.
Caught off guard, she was hit head-on, getting soaked from her shirt to her pants.
Her mind suddenly went blank!
Ke Bing was stunned for a full minute, until Zhao Xuerou was so vomiting that she almost collapsed to the ground. Only then did the researchers standing next to her come over, support Zhao Xuerou, and lead her to a chair next to her.
Ke Bing stood there, his hands stiff, frozen like a sculpture.
The sound of weeping echoed throughout the venue.
"You vile woman! I'll kill you!!"
"Don't kill them yet, let me rest for a while before you kill them."
Zhao Xuerou responded weakly.
