Chapter 015
"Huh. Finally safe."
"Yes, this time it's fortunate that Wu Zimo discovered it early. Otherwise, we would have been wiped out at the beginning of this assessment."
After making sure there was no danger around, the group of nine could finally relax. Even though Lyle and Liz don't have to do anything, they just need to sit quietly in the mecha cockpit. However, the atmosphere during the escape was so depressing that it took a lot of energy out of both of them.
"Everyone, take a look at the damage to your mechas." Wu Zimo confirmed from the map that there were no groups of dimensional Zerg activity within a hundred kilometers of where they were, and then he let everyone rest and reorganize.
After hearing what Wu Zimo said, Sarah and the others consciously checked the condition of the mecha.
"Lisi, there is a problem with the left leg joint of my mecha, can you help me take a look?"
"Okay, no problem."
"Lisi Lisi, I have a small problem here too."
"Okay, I'll deal with Zhang Ye's mecha first and then yours."
"Thank you."
Wu Zimo and the others all got off the mecha. Although Liz specialized in manufacturing individual weapons, her master was a famous mecha manufacturing master in the interstellar space, so it was no problem for her to simply repair the mecha.
There was no problem with Buffett and Bit's mechas, and the two of them were not idle either, following Zhang Ye and the others to help Liz, handing them tools and so on. Lyle was originally preparing to help, but before he could walk over, Wu Zimo stopped him and asked him to prepare food for everyone.
The group first fought a battle with the hairy spider, and then ran desperately for such a long time that they became hungry. The world is big, but filling your stomach is the most important thing.
The food for this one-week assessment was provided by the First Military Academy. They were all nutritional supplements, which were easy to carry and did not take up much space. However, Wu Zimo's face turned particularly dark when he saw those nutritional supplements.
Wu Zimo and Sarah looked at the busy people, found a place sheltered from the wind, and discussed and summarized the situation of the battle.
"It was the first battle, and everyone performed very well. And that photon cannon, no wonder the academy limits each team to only ten shots. If there were no limit, if we encountered a place where a lot of hairy spiders gathered, we could bombard them in large numbers, and the effect would be comparable to a nuclear bomb."
"Nuclear bomb?" Sarah listened to Wu Zimo's summary and suddenly heard the name of a very ancient weapon. She looked at him in confusion.
"Well, this is an adjective. You should know about nuclear bomb." Seeing the confusion on Sarah's face, Wu Zimo's heart skipped a beat and he quickly found an explanation.
Of course Sarah knew the power of a nuclear bomb explosion. It was recorded in the history of ancient Earth wars and ancient Earth history, but it was only mentioned briefly. Sarah couldn't understand why Wu Zimo was so fond of a weapon that had explosive power but produced unreasonable amounts of radiation.
"Ahem, let's continue talking about the photon shells. We only have eight shells left, so we should use them sparingly. And I think that in this assessment, the male god should want to train the students' fighting ability instead of seeing who has the stronger weapon."
Sara nodded in agreement with Wu Zimo's words, but - "Male god?"
"Marshal Arman! Sarah, don't you think he is very handsome? He is a true idol! All those interstellar superstars have to stand aside, they can't even compare to him! Ah!!! How can you be so handsome!!!"
“…”
Looking at Wu Zimo with starry eyes and in a crazy state, Sarah was silent for a moment, left Wu Zimo and turned to look for Lyle.
As for the crazy fans, just let them continue to be crazy. As for the serious business to be discussed, let's wait until Wu Zimo becomes normal.
Master Mahomes said: He refuses to talk to lunatics!
Wu Zimo, who was still in a state of confusion, took a while to come back to normal. He looked up but didn't see Sarah. He murmured in surprise, "Huh? Where's she?"
"Pfft! Hahahaha, Boss, why is Wu Zimo so funny!"
"Exactly. You see, his eyes really lit up when he mentioned the marshal just now."
"Ahem." The other people in the monitoring room were no exception. Although they didn't laugh as exaggeratedly as Xiaoba and the others, their faces were all red from trying to hold back their laughter.
"Hehe, okay everyone concentrate on your work, otherwise it would be bad if something happens to those bastards." Dali almost couldn't help himself when he saw Wu Zimo's antics, but as the eldest brother, his patience was indeed stronger. Wave to your colleagues and ask them not to forget their work.
Dali opened his computer and re-wrote Wu Zimo's performance and sent it to Adjutant Rocard. However, compared to the serious work report just now, this email is simply gossip.
"Hey boss, do you think this kid Wu Zimo can come here for internship?" Xiaoba came over and asked flatteringly when he saw the boss put away his laptop. Such interesting little guys, it would be a waste not to visit them!
Dali saw through Xiaoba's thoughts at a glance and glanced at him. Dali himself also liked Wu Zimo, this interesting boy, but the rules of this assessment could not be easily changed.
Thinking of the reactions of Wu Zimo and others when they first faced the hairy spider, Dali nodded with satisfaction. As long as there are no accidents, Wu Zimo's team should be able to occupy one of the three places for the second grade.
Dali didn't tell Xiaoba what he was thinking. He raised his hand to push away the face that was leaning towards him. "Okay, we'll know the result in a week, so let's get back to work."
On the other side, in the office of the Marshal of the Condemnation Legion Command, Rocard, who was about to be overwhelmed by documents, saw another email notification on his computer. He opened it curiously and found that it was from Dali again.
"What's going on?"
Dali's report just now about Wu Zimo and others did attract the attention of Rocard and Scott, the two highest controllers of the Condemnation Legion.
Just as Dali thought, luck and foresight of danger were all nonsense in front of the two bosses. Maybe some people are really lucky, but it is very foolish to pin everything on luck.
"Scott, what do you think of Xiao Momo's team?"
Well, when Wu Zimo didn't know, Rocard gave him the nickname Xiao Momo.
Scott didn't look up, his eyes were always on the light computer, which showed not only Dali's report, but also the video of Wu Zimo and his team from landing on the planet XT781 to escaping from the pursuit of the hairy spider swarm.
Seeing that Scott had no reaction at all while watching the video, Rocard curled his lips, feeling it was very boring. He also understands his friend's personality, and if he reacts, he will be scared!
Rocard thought that Scott would not respond to him, so he had to study the video himself to find out the unusual situation of Wu Zimo and others. It was very rare that the Marshal actually spoke this time.
"here."
"ah?"
Rocard was stunned and couldn't connect with the Marshal's brain waves. "What here?"
Scott glanced at Rocard calmly, and the display screen in the office turned on automatically. Scott connected to the computer, and the video being played soon stopped at a certain time point.
"Here, this mecha moved its position, and then it seemed to have discovered something."
"oh?"
Rocard followed Scott's instructions, took a look, and indeed found something unusual. "What exactly did they discover?" Rocard's curiosity was aroused again.
Scott looked at the curious Rocard with a rare strange look and did not respond.
“…”
Rocard quickly reacted to his friend's strange look, and it seemed that he asked a nonsense question.
The monitoring insects can monitor the students' situation on the planet XT781, but it does not mean that the students can be monitored after they enter the mecha.
"Tsk, I'll ask Xiao Momo when he comes to our army for internship!" Rocard showed his pride for once.
As for the Marshal, after watching the video, he simply ignored the arrogant person and continued to work seriously.
Rocard didn't get a response, so he had to go back to his desk in embarrassment. Just as he picked up a document, another email came from Dali.
However, this email was clearly marked in large scarlet letters that it should not be seen by the Marshal. Rocard was surprised to see such a title, but after seeing the content of the email, Rocard, who was hiding behind the document, almost couldn't help laughing.
"Puff." He immediately covered his mouth, then quietly raised his head and glanced at Scott who was working hard.
Haha, Xiao Momo, I’m really looking forward to what interesting things will happen during your internship!
On the planet XT781, Wu Zimo, who was chewing nutrient solution with a bitter face, had no idea that people were looking forward to his internship so much.
"Nutrient solution is the most terrible punishment for the foodies in the Great Foodie Empire!"
The people sitting next to Wu Zimo didn't hear clearly what Wu Zimo was muttering, but everyone could see his expression clearly.
"Amo?"
"It's all right."
Wu Zimo swallowed the nutrient solution whole, just like he was drinking Chinese medicine. However, although the nutrient solution tastes so bad, it provides sufficient nutrients needed by the body. Wu Zimo, who was originally hungry, felt full immediately after drinking a tube of nutrient solution as big as a tube of China toothpaste.
The nutrient solution didn’t taste very good, but now that we were full, everyone was in the mood to discuss business.
What Wu Zimo is most concerned about is everyone's mecha issues. To survive on the planet XT781, you absolutely cannot do without mecha. Not to mention destroying the hairy spider worms, without mechas, are they going to let these rookies fight the hairy spider worms in hand-to-hand combat? It would be easier to just find a noodle and hang yourself.
"Liz, how is the repair of the problematic mecha going?"
"These are all minor issues. They have been fixed and will not affect everyone's battle."
In the first battle against the dimensional Zerg, everyone's performance was pretty good, except that Hanny and his team's mecha had some minor problems when they were escaping.
Wu Zimo nodded after hearing this, and glanced at his companions sitting together before speaking lightly.
"In this battle with the hairy spider worms, I think you should have felt the fighting power of the dimensional insect race. The nine of us were able to defeat five hairy spider worms by sneak attack, but when facing ten hairy spider worms, the nine of us had to retreat, not to mention that the hairy spider worms are the weakest among the dimensional insect race."
Wu Zimo's calm voice reached the ears of everyone present. Although his words seemed plain, they made Hanny and others, who were complacent because of their victory in the first battle, feel like a bucket of cold water was poured on them.
“…”
Hanny and the others are not stupid. Even though Wu Zimo didn't say it directly to them, they still understood what he meant. They almost made the same mistake as the eliminated teams.
"Wu Zimo, we understand."
