Chapter 74: Five Insects Team "A-choo." Lin Xi accidentally sneezed...
"A-choo." Lin Xi sneezed accidentally.
Muas quickly asked, "Are you suffering from a cold?"
Lin Xi sniffed and didn't think so: "Maybe some bug scolded me."
Muas, who had just scolded someone, felt a little guilty.
…
The third-year internship was imminent, and the Enamel Military Academy finally issued a notice the day before departure.
The "internship phase" is the actual combat exercise training for the third grade, and it is also the adaptation period for new recruits.
The tasks arranged during this period were both fake and real.
The fake missions are arranged by the academy itself, similar to simulation training. The real missions are real terrorist attacks, the capture of insect hostages, and smuggling crimes.
“Why is the process this year different from previous years?”
"They said they were divided into five-insect teams in order to cultivate students' ability to work together."
"We can form a team, but why are there only five bugs? What can a team of five bugs do?"
"Every year, the college's leadership makes outrageous moves, and this year's moves were especially numerous."
"It's because of the expansion of the eight legions on the capital planet."
"Fuck! What does the expansion of the Eight Legions have to do with our Enamel Military Academy?"
"It is said that the Enamel Military Academy is also on the list of schools that have expanded their enrollment."
"But this is just a rumor, it's not reliable. What if it's false?"
"Even if it's fake, it doesn't matter. If there are students who perform exceptionally well, the local military will be overjoyed."
"That makes sense. We are never the ones who make the choices anyway."
The students immediately got ready after receiving the news.
The items and supplies they needed to carry had already been prepared. What they needed to think about now was which students to form a team with.
The academy did not specify how to form teams, implying that they could form teams on their own.
During the internship, you will encounter various dangers. Although you will be able to avoid many dangers with the guidance of an instructor, you should not take it lightly.
There have been cases of trainees dying during internships in previous years, so they not only have to ensure their passing grades, but also pay attention to their own safety.
This is not a simulation training like in the past, but a battlefield where life and death are determined by fate.
In the dormitory.
Parker muttered to himself as he looked at the notification on the computer: "Five insects in one group. The academy's intention is very clear. It means that students from the five departments will cooperate to form teams."
"We have the Combat Department, the Command Department, and the Star Network Technology Department in our dormitory, but we are still missing two departments."
"Or," Parker licked his lips and looked at the other bugs, "have you found other partners to team up with?"
Parker doesn't really care, but if he can team up with familiar bugs, he can also trust the bugs when fighting.
In previous years, there have been cases where students threw their companions out to block bullets, and that was with familiar insects. If it were someone they didn't know, wouldn't they turn against them in a matter of minutes?
Lin Xi said: "It's okay, just a few of us can form a team."
Parker was stunned for a moment: "Can Sander come with us? He's also a combat type..."
Parker didn't have the nerve to ask if repeating one would be a waste of the spot, but Sander was one with them, and he wouldn't feel comfortable without any of them.
But the training results are also related to their future. Parker doesn’t care, but that doesn’t mean all the insects think so.
Sander rubbed his head and said, "Having two combat-oriented students in one team is a bit of a waste of quota. I can find other students to form a team."
Lin Xi waved his hand: "It's okay, I can be a student in the Mecha Manufacturing and Maintenance Department."
Parker said, "Is this okay?"
Lin Xi nodded: "Although I am only taking this elective, as long as the mecha is not scrapped, I can still repair it."
Parker scratched his head, feeling that he was judging others by his own standards.
Muas glanced at Lin Xi and said, "I chose medicine, so that's OK..."
Before he could finish his words, Lin Xi covered the back of his hand and said, "I know you are very capable, but you still have to give other students a chance."
Muas smiled and said, "As you say, let's contact a student from the medical department."
"Okay, you arrange it." Lin Xi said with a smile.
The atmosphere around the two bugs was even more ambiguous than when they first came back. Muas was often laughing. The atmosphere between the two bugs was so good that Parker and Sander were embarrassed to look up.
"Okay, you two should go and rest quickly and recharge your energy. We will set off tomorrow." Lin Xi said.
Parker and Xander responded in unison, then watched as Lindsey and Muas walked into the same room.
Parker asked quietly, "Have they been sleeping in the same room these days?"
Sander nodded: "Yes, the eldest brother and the second brother have a very good relationship, which makes Chong envious."
Parker: “…”
No, brother, what are you envious of? Do you also want to have a lesbian relationship?
But Parker thought about the sticky scene just now, and he had to admit that he was really envious.
Having a partner who loves you wholeheartedly and can fight side by side on the battlefield.
Any insect would be envious, right?
Parker thought about it and quickly shook his head. He liked the male insects, but he was not interested in the hard female insects. He was not envious!
The next day, all the third-year students were ready to go and gathered in groups of five at the entrance of the academy.
Some students who had not found a team yesterday saw the teams that were not full and came forward to chat. In less than an hour, all the bugs were divided into teams.
There are ten instructors leading the team on this trip, and the instructor that Lin Xi and his team follow is named Troy.
The students gathered and boarded the spacecraft under the guidance of their respective instructors.
Inside the spacecraft, there is a team in each cabin, with separate spaces reserved for them to get acquainted with each other.
Parker greeted the medical student in a friendly manner: "Hello, I'm Parker, welcome to our team."
Wylie nodded, looking a little shy. "Hello, I'm Wylie. I'm glad to join your team."
Parker then tried to introduce the other bugs to Wylie. Muas said, "Don't bother. I've already shown him the images of our bugs."
"Huh?" Parker looked at Wylie, "Why didn't you say that just now?"
Huai Li was a little at a loss, rubbing his fingers unconsciously, not knowing what to say.
Muas comforted him, "Don't be afraid. He's just like that. He's completely uninhibited around familiar bugs. He says whatever he wants, and he doesn't mean any harm."
Parker scratched his cheek and said, "I'm sorry, I'm usually careless."
Huai Li breathed a sigh of relief and quickly shook his head to show that he didn't care.
Parker smiled and said, "Here comes a shy little fellow who can be a good companion for Xander."
Wylie turned his gaze towards Sander and saw the big guy smiling shyly at him. The two introverted bugs suddenly felt a sense of mutual understanding.
There is nothing to do on the spaceship. It is impossible to train in such a small space.
The five bugs looked at each other, and could only chat.
Parker seemed to have thought of something and said, "Brother, you were too busy before. You haven't seen Little Yell yet. I have a video here. I'd like to show it to you..."
Muas shook his head: "No, I've already seen little Yell and held him."
Parker's eyes widened. "How could that be? I didn't even see you leave the academy!"
Lin Xi rolled her eyes at Parker and said, "You're not smart enough to say you're stupid. Of course I went to see it when I got back from vacation."
Parker suddenly realized what was going on, and then looked at Lin Xi accusingly: "Boss, why didn't you tell me earlier?"
Lin Xi glanced at him and said, "Do I need to report everything about me to you?"
Parker felt a dangerous gaze coming at him, swallowed his saliva, and said with a smile: "That's true, it's really not necessary."
Wylie was a little puzzled. He looked at Sander and asked quietly, "Who is Little Yell?"
Sander smiled sheepishly: "She is our adopted daughter."
"Fuck... a female?" Huai Li was a little confused.
Then Sander told Biddy's subsequent story, omitting the fact that they helped find the poisonous plant liquid and deceived the male insect. He only said that they often visited Biddy and became familiar with each other after a few visits.
Little Yell liked their boss very much, and later Biddy decided to let Little Yell recognize them as his godfathers.
Huai Li was a little surprised. He didn't expect that there were already female insects carrying eggs and giving birth in their academy.
"I, I haven't heard of this." Wylie muttered.
Sander said, "We didn't publicize it, and Biddy didn't want other insects to know about it."
Wylie nodded in understanding: "I understand. I won't tell anyone."
Although many female insects will not get married, they will go to the gamete center to get gametes if they like the cubs and raise them alone. However, being abandoned by male insects and being pregnant with eggs makes insects feel sad no matter how they hear it.
Perhaps the insects outside only feel pity and sympathy for Bidi's experience, but this strange look is enough to make the insects uncomfortable.
Sander looked at Wylie and said, "I have an image of Little Yael as well. Do you want to see it?"
Wylie was a little surprised: "Is it possible?"
Sander nodded and said, "Of course."
Sander played the video, and Wylie's eyes lit up instantly: "How cute!"
"He's very cute. He looks even cuter when he sticks to our boss." Sander said enviously.
Wylie secretly glanced at the bug they called the boss. He was handsome and had a unique charm that really attracted bugs. No wonder he even captured the little bugs.
In the cabin, Lindsey and Muas were very close to each other, chatting in low voices, which in Parker's eyes was just kissing each other.
On the other side, his good brother Sander was chatting enthusiastically with the new female insect, and Wylie's face turned red with excitement.
There were five bugs, and they all had bug companions, except Parker, who sat in the middle, looking very depressed.
Finally, Parker reluctantly turned on the game mode.
It doesn't matter, he still has games to keep him company.
But why is it so sad?
…
After flying for a day and a night, the spacecraft finally landed.
The empire is divided into high-level star fields, intermediate star fields, and low-level star fields. The low-level star fields are synonymous with poverty and chaos, but the most lawless and chaotic places are the border stars.
At least that's what ordinary people think.
But in fact, every star field has a no-man's land, even the advanced star field where nobles gather.
