Huo Shen stared at the images projected on the screen without uttering a word.
The remaining members of the Imperial Military Academy couldn't sit still any longer; they hadn't expected the Blue Faction to start fighting amongst themselves so soon after arriving at their destination.
After all, in the past, it would take until later on for anyone to question the commander's decision.
Huo Shen was wearing the uniform representing the Fifth Legion, with the golden lily of the valley emblem on his chest being very prominent. He saw Wen Xihe, who was favored by the Fifth Legion, as well as the Second Prince, and of course, Jiang Yan, the genius of the mecha department.
Having learned about Jiang Yan beforehand, Huo Shen made a point of paying attention to this young genius who was being eyed by the Fifth Legion after the Golden Iris landed on Planet Nott.
But they discovered that the other person had been following someone else the whole time.
However, because the camera could not focus on a particular student, Huo Shen could only see a blurry figure.
Seeing Jiang Yan constantly calling the other "Brother Cen," and even wanting to go with Wen Xi and Cen Yu to raid other camps, Huo Shen began to doubt whether the Fifth Legion's decision was correct.
How did this girl, who's still so dependent on others, even get noticed by the Fifth Legion?!
He secretly thought that Jiang Yan was too dependent on that companion, and he also disliked that companion who clearly didn't want to go on the raid and wanted to slack off.
Several people from the school also realized that Huo Shen's gaze had been fixed on Jiang Yan, and from the increasingly indifferent look in his eyes, they guessed that it was because Jiang Yan's performance on the projection was too poor... They exchanged glances, and finally a middle-aged man who was not familiar with the situation spoke up, "Jiang Yan is not usually like this."
"So, you just have a poor ability to withstand pressure?" Huo Shen finally spoke up. "Does he have to work under a certain type of person to get things done?"
"He's from the mecha department, doesn't he know he's not suited for raids? What he should be doing right now is immediately working with the others to build a defensive system?"
Huo Shen continued to watch the progress of the blue camp and, sure enough, saw the person named Cen Yu, who was very resistant to Wen Xihe's suggestion.
But the protests were clearly ineffective, and the second prince joined the protests.
Huo Shen didn't have any particular feelings about the second prince. He thought all the accolades bestowed upon Li Chonghe were utter nonsense, and that all members of the royal family were wicked without exception—he knew that such thoughts were disrespectful, but that was the truth.
"I heard that the eldest prince has awakened?" Huo Shen suddenly asked.
He looked at a refined-looking middle-aged man. "But the situation isn't good?"
This man is a supporter of the eldest prince and also Bai Jinyu's father.
If anyone else had asked this question in this setting, he would probably have thought it was a provocation. However, knowing that Huo Shen's Fifth Legion was completely uninvolved and being used to Huo Shen's straightforward personality, he simply said, "Everything is still recovering."
"But things seem to be going well," he told Huo Shen. "We still have the Major General to thank for that disaster."
If it weren't for Huo Shen's intervention, the Crown Prince would most likely have lost his life... No one knows why the Zerg attacked the royal family's vacation planet back then, just as they don't know why Nott Planet attracted these Zerg and why they abandoned the place years later.
Occasionally, a few Zerg still stubbornly hunt on Nott, but the scene that seemed to involve the entire Zerg, with even the Overlords rushing to the scene, is gone.
Huo Shen didn't say anything, but what he was thinking about was the information he already knew.
—The eldest prince suddenly underwent a second differentiation and became an Omega.
She was emotionally devastated, wishing she could tear her glands apart with her fingernails rather than believe it.
However, his sister visited him immediately and said that Omegas can do many things too, so there's no need to despair.
Li Chonghe, having lost signal and still in the competition, is far from Xingdu and appears to be unaware of this matter for the time being.
This is too strange, Huo Shen thought.
Theoretically, the possibility of secondary differentiation does exist, but for the eldest prince to undergo secondary differentiation at such an age, especially without any prior indication, seems like a pipe dream.
Such a miracle could only happen if someone removed his gland and simultaneously transplanted an Omega gland that was completely compatible with him and did not reject it—meaning it was impossible.
The eldest prince initially suspected that the drug had caused pseudodifferentiation, but no matter whether it was drawing blood, extracting pheromones from the glands, or any other test that could be thought of, the results were exactly the same.
The eldest prince did indeed become an Omega.
Even his reproductive cavity began to develop secretly... Even though he had never liked the eldest prince, Huo Shen could imagine what a blow this would be to the eldest prince.
At this point, the blue camp finally came up with a direction for the surprise attack.
Wen Xihe and Cen Yu and others went to the jungle area.
The mecha unit began modifications on the spot, adding anti-scanning devices to all mechas to ensure that everyone could become invisible.
“This is the latest one,” said a student from the mecha department. “Our secret weapon.”
At this point, it seemed that blue was finally getting back on track.
Huo Shen turned his attention to the other two camps. Apart from Lan Yao and Sang Huaizhou, the red camp had almost no students with influence, so on the first night, everyone followed their opinions.
Clearly, they had also decided on a surprise attack plan.
“I suspect Wen Xihe will suggest a surprise attack,” Lan Yao said to the others, “so we should strike first.”
The green camp was similar, except that they seemed to be grouped according to the faction they followed. Because there were many noble sons, they quickly split into several large and small factions.
...
Cen Yu was persuaded by Wen Xi with just one sentence—
"If you don't want to be expelled, tonight is your best chance," Wen Xihe said, looking at him.
"Now is the time to easily earn points."
Perhaps because the words were too cruel, Wen Xihe didn't say them too directly, but Cen Yu still understood what she meant.
The first day has the largest number of participants, and with many newbies also present, a surprise attack will catch them off guard, turning them into cannon fodder for others to gain points.
The further you go, the more elite the team becomes, and the harder it will be to gain points. That's why Wen Xihe said tonight is the best opportunity.
They quickly left their temporary hiding place and, once in an open area, everyone released their mechs.
The moment their mental powers connected, the bright silver Valkyrie of Twilight extended its arm, which was decorated with a lily of the valley pattern. Cen Yu jumped directly onto that arm and then entered the cockpit.
With their mental powers fully connected, Cen Yu clenched and unclenched his fingers, and the Valkyrie made the corresponding movement.
The moment their minds connect, everyone in the squad can access the mech via the communicator, enabling voice sharing within the squad.
"Walk."
...
Huo Shen sat up slightly and looked at the huge, bright silver mecha.
The old principal finally spoke up with a smile, "This is Jiang Yan's work... Although it's not a finished product yet, I think 'she' will become famous throughout the universe."
