Chapter 43



043

There are exams every month for spacecraft driving, covering both theory and operation. Ranking is calculated based on the total score. After three exams in three months, Jinchu finally ranked very well with his unremitting efforts.

The spot in the freshman training program is secured.

Spinning in circles with excitement!

In addition to this subject, this freshman training program is mainly aimed at students in the combat department and students majoring in mecha in the mecha department.

These two types of students are much more brutal when competing for places. Jinchu and his friends only rely on test scores and are polite and courteous, while the first two got their places through fighting!

Having secured his spot and finally freed from the grind of studying, Jinchu's favorite thing lately is watching his fellow human students fight. Whether it's hand-to-hand combat, weapon fights, or mecha battles, it's all quite thrilling. With each victory, the opponent loses half their points to the winner. The higher the points, the better the chance of joining the training program.

This may seem like an activity organized by the students themselves, but it is actually promoted by the school. In the end, people are selected based on their scores: 2,000 people in the combat department, 500 in the mecha major, 100 in the spacecraft driving subject, plus people from other majors, a total of 3,000 people. Selecting such a small number of people from a military academy with a population of one million can be said to be the elite among the elites.

After the 3,000 people were selected, they were taken for training. It was not until then that the students learned that the destination of this training was Planet W1.

"W1, discovered three years ago, is a planet with lush vegetation and countless ferocious and powerful beasts. It's fraught with danger, so this training is somewhat risky. Considering you're only freshmen who've been here for three months, you'll be dispersed among the troops. The army will provide you with protection when necessary..."

In the large conference room, the instructor at the podium was speaking and showing many images of the planet W1, as well as the experiences of people who went hunting on the planet W1 in the past two years. The most shocking thing was the extremely high death rate.

The instructor went on to talk about a lot of things that needed special attention after arriving on Planet W1. The 3,000 students below took notes quietly. Finally, the instructor said, "I know that the animals on Planet W1 are now called monsters, and they are said to be full of treasures. The hunting industry and the related market are also quite hot right now. However, our mission this time is not to hunt, but to survive in the harsh and primitive environment of Planet W1 for more than a month.

"So when you arrive on Planet W1, don't provoke the beasts. If you provoke a riot, you'll be expelled from school at best, or face administrative penalties at worst."

After the meeting, it was time to assemble and set off. As they walked out of the meeting room, the students were whispering to each other.

"Has anyone of you been to Planet W1?"

"My uncle is a hunter. Last time he came back from Planet W1, he got a hind leg from some unknown animal. It was about the same length as my leg, and he sold it for 50 million credits."

"Tsk tsk, huge profits."

“Is that meat really that good?”

"I've eaten it, and I feel like my brain is smarter, my eyes see more clearly, my ears are sharper, and my explosive power is stronger."

"Just brag! Isn't that like a miracle drug?"

"I'm telling the truth!"

"Hi!" Jin Chu was patted on the shoulder. He turned around and saw a handsome and cool blond face grinning at him. "Finally found you!"

This guy was the one who rode in a hovercraft with Jinchu on the day of reporting. His name was Qierkaka, and he majored in mecha. Kaka was his last name. After Jinchu became famous with his cat, this guy became even more enthusiastic.

Jinchu didn't have any idea about making friends, but when the guy came up to him a few times, Jinchu exchanged contact information with him. After three months of hanging out, they became quite familiar with each other.

"Hey, what are the arrangements for your subjects at that time?" Chirkaka asked mysteriously.

Jinchu: "On the way there, let us learn how to fly the spaceship."

"I'm talking about after we get there," Chirkaka lowered his voice. "I heard that they'll let you fly a small fighter jet or aircraft, circling the sky every day, providing air support or waiting for rescue."

Jinchu: "So?"

"So when the time comes, brother, I will entrust my life to you. If I encounter danger that I can't handle and am about to die, you must come quickly when I ask you for help!" Chirkaka said with his hands clasped together in a pleading gesture.

Jinchu said, "If that's the arrangement, each small team should be equipped with a corresponding fighter jet or spaceship, and I may not be assigned to yours."

"Isn't this more people seeking help, more lives? I'm just telling you this." Chirkaka sighed deeply as he followed the crowd out. "I originally thought we were being taken to some military planet for special training, but we ended up going to Planet W1."

Seeing that Jin Chu didn't seem to think this was a big deal, he explained, "You haven't heard of W1, have you? This planet was discovered by the military over three years ago, along with W2 and another planet. Then, for some unknown reason, the third planet inexplicably disappeared. The incident was suppressed, but the remaining planets, W1 and W2, became the focus of research."

"Just like what we saw in the picture just now, the trees there are so tall, and the beasts there are also huge and strong. At that time, a professional expedition team went to W2 planet out of curiosity. They were all credit coin players, with high-end equipment, and the small spaceships they took were also the most advanced. They had countless life-saving equipment! In that case, none of the more than ten people in the group returned, and only two people had time to send a distress message.

"Their families hired people to look for them. Several professional mercenaries went in, but they found nothing and lost many lives. However, the survivors did bring back a lot of videos and some monster corpses. They discovered that those monsters were full of treasures, and that's when the hunting profession became popular."

Chirkaka sighed, "I don't know how many lives were lost before everyone realized that W1 is less dangerous than W2. Now people basically choose to go to W1, but even so, the death rate remains high."

Jin Chu said calmly, "Those people asked for death themselves. No one forced them to go. They want to make money from it and have it go smoothly without any danger. They're just dreaming!"

He also felt that the animals on those two planets were suffering. They didn't do anything, but a group of two-legged beasts suddenly ran into their homes and started killing people. Couldn't they resist?

Because Jinchu himself had similar experiences, he certainly wouldn't side with the humans in this matter. But if he said he felt much sympathy, then W1W2 wouldn't. He had lived for over a thousand years and had long since seen through the law of the jungle. Even on Little Flower Star, the exotic beasts that he considered adorable also ate ordinary small animals, and in huge quantities.

Is it bloody? Is it cruel? What have the animals done to offend anyone?

The laws of nature are that whoever is stronger is right. Just like three years ago, wasn't his Little Flower Planet coveted by humans? He ended up driving them away and then moving the planet. That was because of his power. If he were even stronger, or if humans were even more outrageous, do you believe he would have invaded the human world and let them taste the humiliation they also feel?

Planet W1W2 can't avoid this kind of trouble, so it can only endure it and blame no one else. Similarly, humans can go to W1W2 to stir up trouble, although they are not right, but that is due to their ability. If they die there, it means that they are not capable enough and overestimated their own abilities. What's the pity?

When Jinchu said this, the nonchalant coldness in his eyes made Qierkaka shudder. Then he gave him a thumbs up. This mentality is stable. He has the potential to be a big boss.

3,000 students were divided into three spaceships, and there were two other spaceships that were obviously highly combat-capable, similar to escort battleships. They were full of troops, and the pure Seventh Army at that.

Half of the people on the three spaceships were the Seventh Army, and the other half were soldiers selected from 93 regions and 3,000 students.

Jinchu was assigned to the first spaceship, which was also the largest one, and Ye Ruisheng was on this ship.

33 students of the elementary school spacecraft driving course were brought into the control room. They were all involved in the whole process, from takeoff, to leaving the gravitational orbit of the star Belfield, to heading into space, a total of eleven hours from beginning to end.

Although there is an automatic system, there are still many things that need manual work. This is really a long step that requires the cooperation of many people in the entire team. Jin Chu breathed a sigh of relief and thought that it was a good thing that he had many hands and feet. Otherwise, if he bought a spaceship in the future, how could he and the little cat handle it alone?

Speaking of little Meow Meow, he had brought it with him this time, temporarily leaving it with Ye Ruisheng. After the spacecraft was back on track, the interstellar journey, which would last more than ten days, would no longer require so many people to monitor it. The 33 students were divided into three groups to rotate work. Jinchu was in the group that was resting first. He was about to go find Ye Ruisheng, but the teacher and classmates invited him to eat and exchange experiences, so he could quietly follow along.

At this time, in the captain's room, a little orange cat was stepping on the desk. There was a layer of special material on the table. When it stepped on it, a mark slowly left. When it walked away, the mark slowly recovered.

The cat was having fun stepping on it.

Captain Ye, who was working but had his desk occupied, was only given a small corner of the desk. He looked particularly pitiful. He looked at the cat and then at the time. Should Jinchu be done by now?

"Meow." The cat seemed to have finally had enough fun and stopped to meow. Ye Ruisheng, who couldn't understand cat language, immediately stood up and said, "Jinchu may need a while, do you want to play for a while?"

The kitten jumped under the table and walked towards the door: "Meow." I've had enough fun and don't want to play anymore.

Ye Ruisheng was overwhelmed when he saw this and quickly produced a can of cat food: "Want to eat this? It's a new flavor."

The kitten stopped and looked at the cat food can. The packaging was different from the previous ones, and it had a new flavor, so he wanted to try it.

It came back again, and Ye Ruisheng hurriedly opened the can for it and poured it into a beautiful cat bowl: "Eat slowly, there's no rush."

It’s best to eat it for a longer time.

Ye Ruisheng, who had never known how to deal with this cute-looking furry creature, breathed a sigh of relief. He felt that he was serving his ancestor, an ancestor with extremely high fighting power. Although he looked cute, he would never be able to control him if he got upset.

He opened the drawer and took a look. Hmm, there was still a lot of canned cat food, which would last for a while.

Then I looked up and saw that the cat bowl was empty.

"Meow." The cat licked its lips and asked for another can.
