Chapter 192
When Ying Chenlin woke up, he was already in the KID base.
The light in the room was a little dim, and the temperature system was running silently. He turned his head and saw his mecha key on the bedside table. Everything outside was no different from when he left the base.
The physical fatigue was much less, but there was still a dull pain in the head. Ying Chenlin knew that this was a sequelae of excessive mental exertion.
The mecha key lit up, and Yuan greeted him.
Ying Chenlin blinked, and the memory in his mind stayed at the backstage of the Agamemnon Starfish venue. The last thing he remembered was that You Su carried him to the rest area, and he didn't remember anything after that. He had already changed into pajamas, and his body seemed to have been lying in a medical cabin, and there was a smell of special medicine. He pieced together his memories of the sleep period bit by bit, and when he was about to get up, the bedroom door was opened from the outside and someone came in.
The person's footsteps were very light, and Ying Chenlin hadn't spoken yet.
As soon as You Su came in, he noticed that the breathing rhythm of the person lying on the bed had changed. He paused for a moment and asked, "Awake?"
Ying Chenlin subconsciously said good morning, then he remembered that he didn't know the time.
You Su ignored his slow reaction and touched Ying Chenlin's forehead with the medical instrument in his hand. With a prompt tone, all the patient's physical data was recorded in the instrument. "The mental strength is stable. He will recover after two days of rest."
Ying Chenlin looked at the instrument in his hand.
You Su explained: "Eric told me to do it every 6 hours."
Their eyes met, and just as Ying Chenlin was about to remember something, a hand was extended to him.
He didn't hesitate and sat up with You Su's hand, "I want to take a shower first."
The boy walked a little slowly. He took his clothes and went to the bathroom. I don’t know whether he was asleep or not.
You Su stopped walking out and did not go out. His peripheral vision fell on the closed bathroom door in the distance.
Ying Chenlin’s bedroom is not big, and the layout is not much different from You Su’s room, and it is relatively simple. At a glance, you can see all the things and smart devices in the room, but you can see some traces of life, such as a large number of drafts on the table not far from the bed.
You Su came several times and never confiscated the drafts, including the parts placed on the side.
This guy goes to the same place every day at the base and rarely goes out. He doesn't live like a 20-year-old young man.
The shower process was a bit long. Ying Chenlin came out with his face flushed from the fumes. He looked up and found You Su standing at the bedroom door. He was holding a medical device in one hand and swiping his laptop with the other, not knowing what he was looking at.
Noticing the noise, You Su looked away from his laptop and raised his head: "37 minutes, in another 3 minutes I will have to go in and rescue him."
When it comes to rescuing people, Ying Chenlin lowered his head slightly: "I won't do that next time."
You Su didn't say anything. The boy's hair had been dried and was still a little damp. Apart from his skin being a little red, there was nothing unusual.
he
Noticing that Ying Chenlin had taken the mecha key and data pad, he was going to the maintenance room as per normal.
You Su: "Let's go to the meeting room instead of the maintenance room."
The conference room is not far from Ying Chenlin’s bedroom. The KID base is such a small place that it doesn’t take long to walk there.
When Ying Chenlin came out of the room, the man had already walked a few steps and was standing at the corner of the corridor in the distance. He paused for a moment, and just after he walked a few steps, You Su moved again, as if waiting for him.
"I won't feel dizzy when I walk. I'm much better now." Ying Chenlin emphasized.
You Su's gaze fell on him, with some uncertainty.
But this gaze quickly shifted away, and You Su walked in front of him.
Ying Chenlin lagged behind You Su by a few steps.
The corridor was relatively narrow, and he could see You Su's back as soon as he looked up. He was very tall and kept his back very straight when he walked. Ying Chenlin has the habit of observing people. When he looks at people, he will focus on observing their physical data. To be more precise, he will pay attention to their height, arm length, etc. These detailed data will become a precise template for the maintenance engineer to adjust the data.
But when he inadvertently observed the other person today, he only looked at You Su's back.
You Su had a scar on his back, running from his shoulder to his waist, a very obvious running wound... Ying Chenlin seemed to be able to calculate the distance the scar ran through a layer of clothing. You Su said that the scar was caused by the polluted area on the border. Ying Chenlin was very curious about what the pollutant that could injure You Su to this extent looked like. He thought intermittently, his gaze moving away little by little, and he didn't know where he was looking.
Suddenly, the person walking in front stopped.
Ying Chenlin didn't react in time and didn't stop his feet in time, so he bumped into You Su's back.
You Su glanced to the side: "Stairs."
Ying Chenlin lowered his head and saw the stairs in front of You Su.
You Su chuckled and said, "Are you still asleep?"
Ying Chenlin nodded, then shook his head.
You Su had no choice but to take two steps back and said, "You go ahead."
Ying Chenlin: “?”
You Su: "It's easy to recover if it falls."
As soon as he arrived at the conference room, Ying Chenlin's slow brain began to work. It had been two days since he returned from the contaminated area of Agaman.
Thanks to the fact that he fell asleep during this period, Boss Zhou had the spacecraft take a private route to Sirius for safety reasons, otherwise the paparazzi stationed at the Sirius Aerospace Station would have definitely exaggerated the incident.
The news that the Sirius KID mecha base won the Dawn Galaxy Ranking Tournament has spread to all areas of Sirius. The Sirius administrator has come to the KID base several times in the past two days. Various commendations and medals are piled up in the trophy display cabinet in the conference room, which is as small as it can be. The highest one holds the Dawn Galaxy Tournament trophy, and the ones below are all awards issued by Sirius, such as the "Sirius Outstanding Enterprise" and the "Sirius Honorary Mecha Base."
It's not just this that is exaggerated. The stingy behavior of their KID, which was previously ridiculed on Starnet, has been glorified by Starnet netizens as thriftiness.
KID became famous in the ranking competition and became completely popular. Not only that, all kinds of resource investors came to him, and Boss Shen’s computer was filled with endless news every day.
Boss Shen was not available, and neither were the other members of KID.
"Is Chen Lin awake?" Shen Xingtang looked up in the midst of her busy schedule and saw Ying Chenlin and You Su coming over. "Eric said you would wake up today. It seems that guy didn't lie to me."
Lin Yao said: "Chen Lin! Come and get your dividends! Shuguang gave you a lot of bonuses!"
Ji Qingfeng: "Look at your achievements. You have been talking about this bonus for two days."
Ying Chenlin looked at Huo Yan.
Huo Yan knew what he meant, "Don't worry, I'm in much better shape than you are, so that little back injury won't be a problem."
Ying Chenlin was pushed by Lin Yao to sit in front of the conference room. When he turned on his computer, he saw the dividends and bonuses transferred by Shen Xingtang. "So much?"
Shen Xingtang said: "Shuguang is richer than before."
The Dawn Galaxy is very rich this year, and the prize pool for the Galaxy Ranking Tournament has doubled compared to last year. The prize money is just one of the points. The most important thing is that the winning team can pick up two energy crystals from the current Dawn Galaxy Mecha Alliance's energy crystal storage library, with no limit on abilities or levels.
The Dawn Galaxy has invested a lot in training mecha masters. Last season's ranking competition was not held, and the prize money from the two mecha leagues was piled up in this one. Ying Chenlin knew that the prize money for winning was a lot, but he didn't expect the reward to be so rich. "It's much more than when I won the championship that year."
This has increased several times.
Ying Chenlin used the prize money he earned from individual competitions on the one hand for his own treatment, and on Yuan's regular maintenance on the other. He had not signed a contract with the military base at that time, so there was no one to take care of many things for him. In addition, he was young, so he suffered losses in many things.
But the Dawn Galaxy really seemed not as poor as before. The bonus this time had increased several times, and the course of things seemed different from that in his previous life.
"Did you bring back the big fish?" Ying Chenlin asked.
Ji Qingfeng: "Half of it was dismantled, and the remaining skeleton was too heavy, so it was sold to the Dawn Alliance."
Huo Yan: "Don't worry, I brought back all the valuables."
Ying Chenlin nodded.
The responsibility of settling the accounts fell entirely on Jiang Simiao and Shen Xingtang. Seeing Ying Chenlin coming over, Jiang Simiao gave him a summary of what he had gained this time.
KID made a ton of money in Agaman this time. The carefully selected and processed pollutant materials in the mecha storage warehouse were enough to make back all the repair costs of KID's mechas in Agaman this time, and there was even a surplus.
Of course, the one who made the most money belonged to the giant sea rock fish. The giant sea rock fish was originally Agaman's special S-level material. There was probably only one such fish in the entire Agaman starfish pollution area. In addition, there was little recorded information and the species was rare, so the materials on the fish were full of treasures.
In addition to the fish itself, there were also the A variant pollutants that had not been digested in the fish's stomach. KID borrowed equipment from the Agaman Administration and brought them all out.
It was impossible to count the money earned. Jiang Simiao started counting as soon as he left the polluted area, but after two days he still hadn't fully figured out the account.
Jiang Simiao pointed a number meaningfully, "But this is the minimum."
Ying Chenlin was a little surprised: "So many?"
Lin Yao: “We made a lot of money!”
"Many of the pollutants in Agaman are rare pollutants, which are different from the Keze Floating Island you have been to." Jiang Simiao said: "That polluted area has not been opened for a long time. Anyway, the things in the polluted area that have not been opened much are the most valuable. There are few on the market and they can be sold at a high price."
There are many valuable things, but they also need to be processed before they can be put on the shelves for sale.
A The energy crystals of pollutants are separated from the pollutant materials. For this reason, KID can only ask Boss Zhou to rent Jianheng Company's pollutant treatment factory to assist in the treatment. Shen Xingtang negotiated a very low preferential price with Boss Zhou and is currently negotiating a joint cooperation with Jianheng's official online store.
"Joint cooperation?" Ying Chenlin didn't know much about business.
"There are too many fish materials, and we don't have enough manpower at our base. By cooperating with Jianheng, we can also use their factory to process them."
Shen Xingtang explained: "This is a very efficient way to process things, it brings in money quickly, and we don't have to hire too many people."
KID is just a small base. Although material processing and sales can be done slowly, the money will not come quickly and there is no way to fill KID’s small treasury in a short period of time. The best way is to cooperate with acquaintances and outsource some of the complicated processes. Shen Xingtang said: "I have discussed with Boss Zhou that some of the B-level and A-level materials will be given priority to purchase. They are currently researching a water-type A-level mecha suitable for marine pollution areas, and they need a large amount of pollutant materials."
With Boss Zhou's help, things became much easier. KID needed money right at that time, and Ying Chenlin needed money for the research and manufacturing of several weapons. Shen Xingtang could only find a way to manage KID's internal capital turnover and give priority to providing KID's mecha technicians with the best combat equipment. This was the most difficult part. ※
According to KID’s previous combat readiness preparation cycle, it is likely that it will not catch up with the competition supplies.
"Are you in such a hurry?" Lin Yao's attention was entirely on the money.
Jiang Simiao patted his head and said, "Can you be so anxious? You are going to represent the Dawn Galaxy in the Star Domain Tournament next!"
When the Star Domain Tournament was mentioned, KID and the others realized that they had won the Galaxy Tournament and had a spot to play in the Star Domain Tournament.
The Star Alliance is very large. Among the five star fields, the Dawn Galaxy is only the last galaxy in the first star field. According to the old Mecha League process, after the Mecha team completes the competition in their own galaxy, the top two Mecha teams in the galaxy will have to represent their own galaxy to participate in the star domain competition. The KID mecha pilots have never considered this problem. In the past, they would enter the off-season after the galaxy competition, and the star domain competition was the business of Gale and Black Crow.
"I almost forgot about this." Ji Qingfeng said, "There are still a few days left. I haven't even understood the procedures of the Star Domain Tournament!"
"The procedures for the Star Domain Tournament are different every year. It doesn't matter whether you understand them or not." Shen Xingtang saw that they finally remembered the business. "We have to wait until Chairman Li comes back from the meeting in the First Star Domain before we know how to play this year's competition... The procedures are one thing, but we don't even know how this year's Star Domain Tournament will be held."
Ying Chenlin was the only one among all who had participated in the Star Domain Competition. When he heard this, he frowned slightly and looked at Shen Xingtang.
The Galaxy Tournament is held every year, and the dates for individual and team battles are staggered. However, the dates for the Star Domain Tournament and Star Alliance Tournament are uncertain. Generally, they are held every two years, but sometimes they are held once a year. In the year of the event, after the Galaxy Tournament ends, it will usually be seamlessly connected to the Star Field Tournament, giving the mecha pilots only one month to adjust.
"The new competition system may change the entire competition league." Shen Xingtang continued, "The day I came back from Agaman, Chairman Li asked me to be prepared. He said that there was movement from the Star Alliance, and it was not as simple as adding medical mechas to change the new competition system."
Ying Chenlin frowned slightly when he heard this. The trajectory here was different from his previous life.
The introduction of medical mechas and reform of the competition system also happened in my previous life. At that time, the reform was carried out after the black hole accident became irreversible. In this life, because the black hole incident was resolved, the competition system modification was carried out ahead of schedule.
The butterfly effect brought about by the black hole incident in this life caused many changes in the trajectory of future lives. Ying Chenlin's understanding of the reform was a few years later in his previous life. He did not participate in the competition that year when the reform was carried out. How the galaxy competition was connected with the star field competition had already been stabilized by the time he joined KID.
Huo Yan: "When will the Star Region Competition be held? We won't know until after the meeting, right?"
"This is what's going on at the moment." Shen Xingtang couldn't tell the exact situation, so he decided to wait for notification from the Dawn Alliance. "You don't have to worry about the base's liquidity after this competition. I will arrange it. Just rest for a few days, and then everyone will start training."
Agaman made a lot of money, most of which he invested in the base, and the rest was given as bonuses to the mecha pilots.
Ying Chenlin had not been sitting in the conference room for long before Shen Xingtang rushed him to the medical room to check his health.
Eric was watching a video in the medical room. When he saw Ying Chenlin coming over, he quickly turned off the video and handed the medical report to Ying Chenlin. Simply put, you are mentally overdrawn and need more rest. It is normal to feel dizzy during this period.
Ying Chenlin confirmed that everything was fine, said thank you, turned around and went to the maintenance room. He had to work on weapon design.
Doctor Eric watched him go out, reached out to take back the medical report data tablet, deleted the medical report on the data tablet, and tilted his head to look at the curve chart on the virtual screen next to him. It was Ying Chenlin's mental power fluctuation data and Mecha Yuan's fluctuation spectrum.
The recent data has been trending relatively flat, to an extent that it is somewhat abnormal.
-*
The Starnet is still buzzing about KID winning the Dawn Galaxy Championship. KID's fame has soared, with more and more new fans following them, and their fame has soared... Even with more fans, KID's official Weibo account is still half-dead, usually not posting anything, but only posting something.
, are all here to promote new products in the online store.
[Damn, I’m not even this diligent when buying Gale peripherals. 】
[The person above came from Jifeng and became a fan of KID? 】
[Get lost, I’m a fan of universal love.] Why don't they sell the Stealth Squid Ink Sac anymore? I'm also looking to buy a few to use in the contaminated area. 】
[…The benefits of their online store are so good, who can resist buying after seeing it? 】
[I followed KID’s official Weibo for a few days... and bought things there. You’ll get addicted if you follow this thing. Remember to unfollow it when you’re broke. 】
[My brother asked me what I was doing, and I said I was shopping at the Dawn First Base. 】
[You have to be a Buddhist to follow KID. Look at sink’s fans. They used to urge the official Weibo to release materials every day, but now they are the fastest to come every time the official Weibo releases new products. 】
After coming out of the Agaman contaminated zone, KID's online store has been continuously stocked with goods. New fans haven't even taken a few glances at the information about the mecha master, and all they see every day is the information about KID's online store... They're impressed at first sight, and money is flowing into KID's online store. The fans who spend the most are those who specifically request seafood. KID has been releasing seafood in different ways recently, and they can’t buy all of them, so their wallets are empty.
The person who was most upset was the director of the Agaman Starfish Pollution Zone Management Bureau. That day, after KID took away a bunch of pollutants from them using a large storage device, he contacted the staff to conduct pollution testing in the competition area. When the test report was submitted to the League Headquarters, the news that Agaman's high-level pollutants had dropped by 17% quickly spread in the league, and countless directors of management bureaus called to express their condolences.
Of this 17%, apart from those looted by KID, swallowed by giant sea fish, and killed in battles between mecha teams, some died in submarine landslides caused by explosions and were all buried under the sea.
The person in charge of the Tianyuxing Administration Bureau is the most consoling person. "It's okay, it's only reduced by 17%."
Director Agaman: "...That's not ordinary pollutants, that's high-level pollutants!!"
He didn't even dare to calculate the cost of common pollutants, fearing that he would not be able to accept it.
Most of these high-level pollutants are now available in KID's online store. Even researchers from their management bureau who want to study local pollutant information have to go to KID's online store to buy goods.
The craze for online stores is only temporary, and KID has no time to take care of it.
They train hard during the day and help their boss clear out stock to make money at night. The joy of being a champion only lasts for a few days before they have to face the reality that they now have some money but still have to work hard. This kind of days lasted for about three or four days. Shen Xingtang came back from the meeting of the Mecha Alliance and brought the latest news about the Star Domain Competition.
"Only one spot?"
Lin Yao was stunned when he heard the news. "Doesn't the Dawn Galaxy have two quotas every year?"
"There are never two places. Sometimes there is only one place."
Shen Xingtang put the file on the table and explained, "And the quota for the Dawn Galaxy was not obtained for nothing. It was earned by Swift Wind and Black Crow in the past."
The Star Domain Tournament is the second largest event in the entire Star Alliance. Not all mecha teams can participate, and the number of places available to each galaxy is limited. In the past, the old competition system was stable. The number of participants in each year's star field competition was based on the ranking of the galaxies in the previous star field competition. The galaxies with higher rankings had more bases that could participate in the competition, while the galaxies with lower rankings could only have one or two participating places at most.
The Dawn Galaxy's grades were very poor, so they got the worst score. Occasionally, if their grades were better, they would get two places, and if their grades were worse, they would get one place.
The Dawn Galaxy was suspended last season, did not participate in the Star Domain Tournament, and had no ranking results... According to the competition rules, the Dawn Galaxy was not originally eligible to participate, but considering the new competition system, the Star Domain Tournament only gave Dawn one qualification to participate.
"Then Lao Zhao can't go to the competition with us?"
Ji Qingfeng said: "I have made an appointment with them to fight again at the Star Domain Tournament!"
Jiang Simiao frowned and said, "Did the league really decide this? There won't be any new changes in this new season?"
If KID doesn't perform well in the competition, the situation in the Dawn Galaxy will not change and may even get worse.
"But it's not completely hopeless." Shen Xingtang called everyone to the meeting just for this matter. "Since Shuguang doesn't have any extra quota, Shuguang can only go and grab the quota back."
Grab a spot? Everyone in KID looked at Shen Xingtang. Aren’t the places determined by the results of the Star Alliance Tournament and the Star Domain Tournament?
Shen Xingtang lowered his eyes slightly and placed a document on the virtual screen. A special file of the Star Alliance appeared in the file on the virtual screen. This did not belong to the Dawn Galaxy or the First Star Region.
You Su frowned slightly when he saw the document.
Those densely packed documents were listed down, and Ying Chenlin followed their gaze, finally seeing some special words among them.
Lin Yao's eyes started to hurt when he saw the words: "I need a summary, I can't understand it."
Ji Qingfeng narrowed his eyes and said, "Wait a minute, let me take a look."
"Shit, could it be that thing?" Jiang Simiao noticed the details and shook his head hurriedly: "How can we get that? Wouldn't it be cannon fodder for those powerful teams in the Star Alliance!"
Lin Yao asked: "What cannon fodder?"
Shen Xingtang's voice was somewhat serious: "Have you heard of the Star Alliance's special mission?"
The author has something to say:
Woohoo, I'm late.
I'm not feeling well today. I've had a migraine for two days and the painkillers can't relieve it.
If I feel better tomorrow, I will write an additional update for you all. Thank you for waiting for me.
It's getting close to the Chinese New Year and I've been busy at home, so the evening updates will probably be a bit late.
But it will still be updated daily, so don’t wait. If it’s too late, just go to bed early. There will be updates every day when you wake up.
Drop 200 red envelopes~
