Chapter 305
Simon looked at the boy in front of him with amusement.
The other person's face was covered in dirt, his combat uniform was loose and baggy, and he looked extremely disheveled, like an unwanted stray dog.
Such a fragile creature, so fragile that it could be crushed with a single finger, should not have piqued his interest.
But the other person happens to have a pair of pure and innocent eyes.
He was even more fascinated by his home planet than by any other planet he had ever known.
Such pure and beautiful eyes are probably unique across the entire planet Serah.
Simon, who had been fighting desperately on the planet Serah for over ten days, finally felt a rare moment of mental relaxation.
Like the last sanctuary on Celia, Simon suddenly felt a pang of tenderness and wanted to take the little rabbit with him.
This will probably keep him from being bored in the days to come.
Simon pointed to the yellow badge on the boy's shoulder.
"What a coincidence, we're on the same team. From now on, you'll follow me and be my little brother."
Simon casually tossed the gun from his shoulder into the boy's arms and turned away nonchalantly.
No one knew that he seemed casual, but was actually very tense.
He could kill the boy behind him instantly if he made the slightest move.
He was confident in this, which is why he dared to throw the weapon to the other side.
Fortunately, the boy was very well-behaved.
Hearing the clattering footsteps behind him, Simon unconsciously curled up the corners of his mouth.
It felt like a small animal stepping on my heart, soft and warm, a truly wonderful feeling.
Rong Rong was very happy that she had found a powerful patron. She was worried about being in an unfamiliar place, but now someone had come to guide her.
However, the gun in her hand seemed excessively heavy, and Rong Rong struggled to walk.
Suddenly a large hand snatched the gun from her arms, and a cold sneer rang out from above.
"You're so weak, yet you still came to participate in the assessment? I really don't know how you've survived until now?"
Simon looked at the boy's head with a complicated expression. Tsk, so short, it seemed to only reach his chest.
Assessment? What kind of assessment?
Rong Rong looked up, her big eyes blinking as she looked at Simon.
She desperately wanted to ask where she was and what they were doing, but she didn't dare, afraid of revealing herself.
Rong Rong's eyes were innocent and pure, and Simon's heart suddenly started beating faster for no apparent reason.
He patted Rong Rong's head with his big hand, "Alright, as long as you behave, I don't mind helping you pass the test."
Rong Rong quickly declared, "I'll definitely be very well-behaved!"
Rong Rong deliberately lowered her voice, but her original voice was soft and sweet, and even when she lowered it, it was still somewhat androgynous.
However, given her petite, boyish appearance, it's still acceptable.
A boy who is not yet fully developed, with a somewhat chubby and innocent appearance.
Simon defined people.
After that, Simon indeed kept Rong Rong with him.
It was only a few days later that Rong Rong learned that they were at the entrance examination site of the Federal First Military Academy.
Unlike the assessment Rong Rong had imagined, this assessment was extremely brutal.
The Federal First Military Academy sent all the students who had registered for the assessment to the planet Sera.
They distributed small amounts of food, water, and weapons and ammunition to everyone.
A one-month assessment will be conducted.
The candidates will also be randomly divided into three teams: red, yellow, and blue, to compete against each other.
The top 30,000 candidates who reach the finish line will be officially admitted to the Federal First Military Academy.
In this assessment, the candidates' enemies are not only other candidates, but also the star beasts scattered throughout the entire planet Sera.
There are many kinds of star beasts, and their levels vary.
In every examination, they have always been the most formidable opponent for the candidates.
Rong Rong was puzzled. Was there only two possible outcomes for this assessment: life or death?
"Of course not. Those who don't want to die can hide and shouldn't go to the finish line to fight for a spot."
Once the assessment is over, the mentors will come to clean up the mess, and then you can leave with them.
"Didn't you do this very well before?" Simon laughed.
A combat novice like Rong Rong doesn't seem like the type to apply to the top-tier military academy.
"Tell me honestly, were you tricked into this?" Simon hooked his arm around Rong Rong's shoulder, full of curiosity.
Rong Rong gave a vague "hmm" and didn't intend to say anything more.
The more you say, the more mistakes you make; it's best to let Simon fill in the blanks himself.
"How pitiful."
Sure enough, Simon found out the reason why Rong Rong was there and began to take even better care of her.
Simon recounted that Rong Rong felt nothing; after going through wave after wave of battles, even someone as strong as Simon would occasionally get injured.
Rong Rong finally realized the cruelty of this assessment.
So many people commit murders just to increase their chances of passing the exam.
"Scared?" Simon wrapped his arm in bandages and glanced sideways at Rong Rong, who was hanging her head beside him.
Rong Rong shook her head, "No way!"
Rong Rong simply couldn't understand why there was such a cruel entrance exam.
"It's just a matter of facing the cruelty of war ahead of time. Those who are not prepared are not qualified to join the First Army."
Simon gazed into the distance, momentarily confused as to whether bringing Rong Rong into the First Army was the right or wrong decision.
"I'm not afraid! I'm going to pilot a mecha and wipe out all the enemies!"
Rong Rong was full of fighting spirit, feeling like someone had just delivered a pillow to her when she was sleepy.
She was thinking about becoming stronger to save humanity, but now heaven has given her a chance to join the ranks.
The Federation's No. 1 Military Academy, the best military academy in the entire Federation.
Two weeks later, Rong Rong and Simon successfully reached the finish line, finishing third and fourth respectively.
Compared to the first and second place winners, Simon was clearly more injured, which made Rong Rong feel very embarrassed.
She knew that if it weren't for her, Simon would have had an easier time, and might have even come in third place.
Rong Rong was thus admitted to the Federation's First Military Academy, even if it was done in a way that could be considered cheating.
However, nobody cares; every year, students are brought into the school this way.
Yi Jun wasn't in a hurry at all. Even after enrollment, they would have more assessments to screen out all unqualified students.
Simon took Rong Rong to complete the enrollment procedures, register her name, and fill in her major. Throughout the entire process, except for Rong Rong writing her own name, Simon handled everything else.
Simon, without even asking any questions, filled in Rong Rong with the same individual combat major as himself.
Simon did ask Rong Rong about her ancestral home planet, but Rong Rong hesitated and didn't give an answer. Simon chuckled and wrote down a random planet for Rong Rong.
The First Army is very lenient about students' personal information; in other words, the First Army welcomes anyone to apply.
“I understand, he’s an unregistered resident.” Simon winked at Rong Rong, who was slightly confused.
This is so sloppy! Rong Rong couldn't believe it.
Finally, it was time to assign dormitories. Rong Rong was still in a daze when Simon began to force her, "Assign us to the same dormitory!"
A familiar murderous aura emanated from Simon. Rong Rong turned her head and saw the senior student in charge of registration trembling as he processed the paperwork.
Simon exuded a terrifying aura of murderous intent and bloodlust. Even ordinary upperclassmen wouldn't dare to provoke someone like him, who was among the top three in his grade.
