Chapter 016
Wu Zimo is not a man who likes to talk too much. Since his companions can figure things out on their own, he won't say much. He opened the map and pointed to their current coordinates.
"We are here now. There is no area where hairy spiders are active within a hundred kilometers. If we want to find our target, we need to leave here. It's still early. Let's rest for ten minutes and head to this coordinate."
Everyone looked in the direction where Wu Zimo's finger was moving, and saw the next target Wu Zimo chose. They somewhat understood why he chose the hairy spider at this coordinate.
From the distribution of hairy spider worm activity areas on the map, we can see that the number of hairy spider worms at this coordinate is relatively the least, with only three. The most important thing is that there are no signs of other hairy spider worm groups active around this coordinate point.
"Those hairy spiders don't know how they summon their companions, or how far they can summon them. Now that we know they will summon their companions when they encounter a strong enemy, we must pay attention to this problem during the battle."
When Wu Zimo learned that the assessment target was the dimensional Zerg, he went to the Star Network to look for information about the dimensional Zerg.
In the cosmic war, there is indeed information showing that these dimensional Zergs are the same as some insects known to humans, and can communicate with each other. However, from what Wu Zimo saw from the information, only large dimensional Zerg groups with advanced intelligence have such characteristics.
Because in the cosmic war, it is easy for the human side to find that the fighting style of the dimensional Zerg swarm is similar to the human army model, or it should be said that the dimensional Zerg is more like a group of strictly disciplined armies that follow orders.
Wu Zimo had seen the description about the dimensional Zerg at that time, but when he thought that their assessment this time was only to deal with the lowest-level hairy spiders among the dimensional Zerg, he did not expect at first that these hairy spiders actually had this ability.
Isn’t this a scam?
If those hairy spiders suddenly went crazy and gathered together to fight against the students of the First Military Academy, they would be completely wiped out.
You should know that the number of students taking this exam is much smaller than the hairy spiders on planet XT781! Not to mention that more than half of the students taking the assessment have no practical experience at all, they are rookies among rookies.
It can be seen that hundreds of people have been eliminated in just half a day. Wu Zimo doesn't want to admit it in his heart, but the actual combat situation of the students of the First Military Academy is really a bit too much to admit.
"We'll keep an eye on it."
What Wu Zimo thought of must have been thought of by everyone else present. Even if they didn't understand, as long as they recalled the previous situation when they were chased by the army of hairy spiders, they would have to understand it.
Seeing that his companions understood what he meant, Wu Zimo continued: "There are only three targets this time, so I think if possible, we should not use highly lethal weapons such as photon shells." Wu Zimo raised his head and calmly glanced at his companions around him.
"Pfft, Wu Zimo, why are you talking so seriously?" Hanny, who is good at ruining the atmosphere, was not scared at all by Wu Zimo's words.
"It's just a close combat with those disgusting hairy spiders. It's not like I haven't experienced this before. Didn't you see how brave I was when I fought those two hairy spiders before? Don't worry, we have six powerful sentinels with extraordinary skills!" After Hanny finished speaking, he deliberately raised his chin with an arrogant look.
It's a pity that the other friends didn't quite buy it. Zhang Ye and Buffel, who were sitting on both sides of Hanny, raised their hands at the same time and patted the back of Hanny's head, who was as proud as a peacock.
"Ah! How could you hit my important head? What if it gets stupid?"
Hanny was furious, and everyone ignored him. Didn't Beat, who had been silent, actually say, "Those who don't need to take pictures are stupid."
“Pfft…hahahahahaha.”
"Bit is right!"
"I just discovered today that you, Bit, actually have the skill of being poisonous-tongued."
Beat's calm expression, as if he was saying something very ordinary, made everyone burst into laughter, especially Hanny's red face, which made everyone laugh non-stop. The originally solemn atmosphere instantly became much more lively.
After everyone had laughed enough, Lanny said to Wu Zimo, "Don't worry, Wu Zimo. We understand your decision. In fact, we should thank the Marshal for changing the academic year assessment."
"yes."
Zhang Ye put away the smile on his face, opened his eyes and looked up at the sky, "I thought that with my strength as a sophomore in the top ten of the mecha department, it would be easy to deal with the lowest level of dimensional insects, but reality slapped me hard in the face."
"Sitting in a well and looking at the sky, hmm, this is what the ancient Chinese idiom means, right?" Buffell also spoke quietly.
How could a companion who could be recognized by Sarah be weak? Whether it is Zhang Ye or Bafil, together with Hanny, Bit, and Lanny, the six of them are among the top ten in the second year of the Mecha Department of the First Military Academy.
In school, they train very hard but it is impossible for them to say that they are not complacent because they are better than others. They are all a group of young people, and they are definitely competitive.
But it was the first day, or rather just half a day, that made these gifted children realize the cruelty of reality. They can only be a group of delicate flowers that are well protected in the ivory tower, unaware of the cruelty outside.
Just like a piece of iron, how can it become truly useful without being hammered thousands of times?
Sara also put away his cold expression and reached out to pat Bafir's shoulder. Liz and Lyle also comforted their companions. Seeing the change in everyone's mentality, Wu Zimo nodded with satisfaction in his heart.
He looked up at the invisible surveillance insect and smiled, 'Others may not know, but with the transformation of Sarah and the others, the male god's goal has been successful. '
"It's almost time to rest, we have to start working! For the top three! For the scholarship! For our male idol!" Wu Zimo stood up suddenly, clenched his fists, and a raging flame was almost materialized behind him.
“…”
The encouraging words at the beginning were normal, but as for the two at the end, not to mention Sarah, even Lyle turned his head and pretended he saw nothing.
Everyone entered the mecha again and set off for the coordinates selected by Wu Zimo. Because this was not a forced march and there was no danger on the road, everyone was quite relaxed.
"Lyle, what are you thinking about?" Sitting in the cockpit, Sarah noticed that Lyle's expression was a little strange. His eyes moved slightly, and she asked in a low voice.
Lyle had long regarded Sarah as a partner as important as Wu Zimo, so he didn't think much about it and answered directly: "I'm thinking about Ah Mo."
When he heard that Lyle was still thinking about Wu Zimo beside him, an unknown light flashed in his eyes. Poor Wu Zimo, who was studying the map on the Bit Mech, suddenly felt as if he was being stared at by some cold-blooded animal, and shuddered subconsciously.
Wu Zimo turned his head and looked in a certain direction, touched his nose and smiled bitterly. Could it be that he was lying in the wooden warehouse again?
Sarah continued to ask as if nothing had happened, "Wu Zimo?"
"Yeah, I always feel like there's something a little weird about A-Mo after he came back."
Or it should be said that the well-behaved and quiet Amo has become a lot more energetic. Although Amoler likes this kind of energetic Amoler more, sometimes Amo's behavior really makes this little friend feel very stressed.
For example, I don’t know when A-Mo suddenly became a die-hard fan of the Marshal…
In the past, Amo only thought about studying. Even if that person was around, Amo was still very quiet and well-behaved.
After listening to Lyle's nagging, Sarah also investigated Wu Zimo's information when approaching Lyle, and the Wu Zimo in the information was indeed as Lyle said. But after seeing the real person, Sarah began to doubt whether the family investigators had made a mistake in identifying the wrong person. This lively guy was not the person in the information at all.
As he spoke, Lyle's voice gradually slowed down. After a long pause, he said dejectedly, "Is it really such a big blow to A-Mo that he cannot awaken and become a guide?"
That’s right, the reason why Wu Zimo’s changes before and after didn’t cause others to suspect whether he had changed Rui was because everyone had the same idea as Lyle.
Wu Zimo's personality changed suddenly because he was devastated by not being able to become a guide. This kind of situation is very common in the interstellar space. Especially since Wu Zimo has such a great talent, everyone thought he could awaken and become a valuable guide, but in the end he could not awaken and could only be an ordinary person for the rest of his life.
With such a blow, some people in the interstellar world might even go crazy. Now Wu Zimo's personality change is just within the acceptable range for everyone.
Feeling the loneliness in Lyle's tone, Sarah's eyes moved, and she looked up at Lyle seriously, "Isn't it good for him to be like this?"
"Well, no."
Looking into Sarah's eyes and seeing his own reflection in them, Lyle's eyes seemed to wander for some reason. He looked away and said with an embarrassed smile, "Actually, it's good for A-Mo to be like this. I don't know why he became a fan of the Marshal, but the Marshal is everyone's idol, and it's normal to admire him."
"Besides, liking Marshal Arman is definitely better than liking that so-and-so before. Let me tell you, Sarah, you know that so-and-so..."
Then, Lair started saying a lot of bad things about that person, and the topic, which was originally about Wu Zimo, suddenly turned to accusing a scumbag.
Sarah listened to Lyle's accusations with a faint smile on her face, without showing any impatience at all. It was truly a harmonious scene.
Wu Zimo should be thankful that he didn't hear the conversation between Lyle and Sarah about him, otherwise he would definitely cover his face. Of course, he was more touched in his heart. It was gratifying for the original owner to have such a friend who truly cared about him.
"Everyone, please be careful. We will soon enter the range of the hairy spider insects."
In fact, Wu Zimo didn't need to remind them. The three red dots on the mecha display screen monitoring system clearly let everyone know that the relaxing time was over and a new round of battle was about to begin.
