Chapter 36 The Devil is More Powerful



Chapter 36 The Devil is More Powerful

The training base was equipped with a signal shielding device, and the students' intelligent brains only had the Moye Military Academy's exclusive sub-system running. They were unable to connect to Skynet and could not communicate with the outside world.

But the devil is always one step ahead of you.

A mini cube with two small wings flew out of Shen Shouli's sleeve. It shook for a moment, and then projected a piece of text into the air.

That was the report that Shen Shouli had sent to investigate Xu Lingqu. This sophisticated microrobot made of special materials could bypass the shielding device and accurately transmit external information to Shen Shouli.

"Xu Lingqu has lived in the Zhuyun frontier since she was a child. Her grandfather passed away when she was young. She is in poor health and lives on welfare, barely getting by in the house left by her parents. The only person she's familiar with is her neighbor's grandfather. According to feedback from the military, her parents are likely former subordinates of General Xu Chengbi. They died in a conflict with the Federation. At that time, peace was in full swing, so their deaths were simply covered up. It wasn't until recently that General Xu learned that his former subordinate had a daughter who was still alone and helpless, so he took her in and adopted her."

Her life story seemed like a tragic novel about an interstellar orphan. Jin and Shen Shouli looked at each other. This was what was wrong with Xu Lingqu.

How could Xu Lingqu's fighting moves and techniques, his ability to see the overall situation, and his marksmanship like a sharpshooter be cultivated in such an environment?

"Ares recently told me that the Federation has sent a group of spies to our area, and one of them has infiltrated one of the six major military academies." Jin leaned back. "Do you think it could be Xu Lingqu?"

"It's too obvious, and this is too stupid." Shen Shouli said decisively, "And do you think Xu Chengbi's people are just eating for free?"

General Xu was sure that he had investigated Xu Lingqu first before adopting him.

Moreover, it is best for a spy to keep a low profile. Even if she has these abilities, it is unlikely that she would show them directly. Isn't this clearly asking others to investigate her?

Jin blinked. "Isn't there more content? Keep playing."

"According to the grandfather, the only neighbor Xu Lingqu had contact with in Zhuyun Frontier, she...revered Admiral Yinhe. She spent her free time at home studying all sorts of footage and materials about him. She had no other special hobbies. At 16, she was too weak to undergo mental activation and testing, so she went to Admiral Xu's home to undergo activation and testing again through backdoor connections."

There was too little information about Xu Lingqu's past, and the people who investigated him didn't know what to say in the end. Apart from being miserable, they couldn't reveal any other clues about his past life.

But this time there is still useful information.

They finally found a connection point between Xu Lingqu's two extremely fragmented lives.

Galactic Admiral.

"She admires the Galaxy Admiral?" Shen Shouli's voice was filled with doubt.

"That should be correct." Jin nodded in confirmation of this information. "Xu Xizhen told me that they both chose Moye Military Academy because they admired Admiral Yinhe."

After spending these two days together, he did manage to get some useful information out.

"So is there a possibility that she was originally very smart, but her physical condition was indeed not good. She taught herself fighting skills by watching the very rare video footage of the Galaxy Admirals' battles. Later, when her body recovered, she must have received better treatment on the capital planet." Jin tried to make a plausible summary of the investigation into Xu Lingqu.

"It's just that her shooting... can only be explained by talent." Jin thought about how he had just witnessed Xu Lingqu's record of hitting the target with all 30 shots. His tone was puzzled, but his smile grew bigger.

Few people can remain as elusive and unclear as a fog after being investigated by the Shen family.

"I think it might be just as I said. After eliminating all possibilities, whatever remains, no matter how outrageous, is the correct answer." Jin smiled self-deprecatingly. "Believe in the power of the Galaxy Admiral idol. Don't you admire the Galaxy Admiral too?"

Shen Shouli glanced at him unhappily, rubbed his temples with his hand, and put away the micro-robot: “Anyway, His Royal Highness the Third Prince’s main mission this time is not to investigate her, so there is no need for you to pay too much attention to her.”

He collected it quickly, as if he would suffer if Jin looked at it for a few more seconds.

Jin put away the smile on his face and said, "Can you please stop calling me that? I feel like I'm going to go to my brother and tell him about me any second."

"Didn't you tell me a few days ago that you were going to find a way to recruit Xu Lingqu into your Ares? Her mental power level is B. If you want to succeed, don't you have to use your inviolable authority as a prince?" Shen Shouli's tone was a little sarcastic. He was tired of seeing Jin Yan acting like a silly boy from the Three Star System these days. "Xu Xizhen is already suspicious of you. Fortunately, she doesn't like to attend those parties and banquets, so she can't recognize your voice."

The Third Prince of the Interstellar Empire had never been publicly revealed. All that was known was that he was born weak and would have died in infancy. However, thanks to the efforts of the Royal Medical College, he was saved and, despite being confined and nurtured in the Imperial Palace, he unexpectedly grew up successfully.

He just doesn't like meeting people and is unwilling to attend most parties and banquets. Even if he does, he wears a mask. Most people have only heard his voice, and then only one or two sentences.

Many people speculated whether the Third Prince was incredibly ugly or had a hidden illness. However, his status as a prince lent him a certain allure, and most believed he was mysterious and tranquil.

At this time, Jin was sitting in front of Shen Shouli, his fiery red hair setting off his handsome face.

This is the third prince who is said to be weak and invisible.

He is obviously a lunatic with a talkative and histrionic personality.

Instead of recuperating in the palace, he sneaked into the freshmen of Moye Military Academy with an ulterior motive.

Jin grinned, "It's okay, she'll find out sooner or later."

Xu Lingqu helped Xu Xizhen out of the infirmary.

After the training session, Xu Xizhen realized she had hit her thigh hard and cried out in pain. Xu Lingqu examined her and saw a large black bruise. She dragged someone to the infirmary for treatment.

She watched Xu Xizhen calm down for a rare moment during treatment, with his head tilted to one side and his eyes closed to rest, and couldn't help but think of the annoying Xu Youwen.

If he knew his sister was injured, he would definitely feel sad, right?

He repeatedly told her, both explicitly and implicitly, not to hold Xu Xizhen back, and his arrogant attitude was actually quite annoying.

Recalling the first time the two met, Xu Xizhen took the initiative to pull her aside and asked if she had signed up for Moye Military Academy because she liked Admiral Yinhe, her eyes sparkling.

At that time, it was difficult for Xu Lingqu to compare her with Xu Youwen.

Besides, she provided herself with a good deception.

Love Galaxy Admiral.

The day before the tryout began, Xu Lingqu asked Miss Gina to go back to Zhuyun Border to do some work.

The old neighbor was actually not familiar with the sickly girl in the next house. The two of them had no connection. He just heard that she had gone to the capital star to become the adopted daughter of an admiral. He definitely wanted to brag about it to others, but he was troubled by the fact that he really was not familiar with Xu Lingqu.

At this time, Gina gave him material to brag about.

"When she's alone in her room, she's always reading all sorts of stuff about the Galaxy Admirals... those movies and TV shows? And even the public battle footage? Because she admires them so much. Haha. I heard she's in military school now? I knew she'd go. She's learning all that stuff on her own. She's very smart."

The old man spoke incoherently, but he helped Xu Lingqu tell a lie that was quite credible.

She had long expected to be investigated. Xu Lingqu had not thought of pretending to be weak and taking the middle way during this trial period. Although pretending to be weak and taking the middle way was safe, playing it safe was never within Xu Lingqu's consideration.

Once you decide to shine, you must be prepared to be investigated, and you will be able to deal with any situation you encounter.

This isn't a perfect explanation, and it's actually pretty clumsy when you think about it.

But what Xu Lingqu wanted to do was never to explain to others, but to confuse them.

If you can confuse someone enough to want to investigate you, you win.
