Chapter 63

"I see." Jiang Se was enlightened, looking at the vice president and asked, "So, we are to represent the Alliance University team in the competition now?"

"Yes, the Grand Drill is about half a month away, and it's too late to wait for the team members to recover and rehabilitate."

The vice president didn't say more, but there were actually two factions within Alliance University regarding whether these freshmen should participate in the competition.

One faction believed that it was too hasty to let a group of freshmen who had just entered school participate in the Grand Drill, as they lacked practical combat experience and had participated in very few matches since forming their team.

The other faction, however, thought that since the team commander had made the suggestion, and given Jiang Se and his team's excellent performance in previous simulation battles, they could indeed represent Alliance University in the Grand Drill.

"I hope you all perform outstandingly in this match."

The vice president looked at everyone, speaking with emphasis.

After leaving the meeting room, the group walked down the corridor. Jiang Se leaned against the window and whispered, "I never expected the team commander to have so much confidence in us."

They had been at odds before, almost to the point of wanting each other dead.

Zhu Jin said softly, "There's no way around it; after all, our opponents might be the ones who understand us best. As the saying goes, knowing yourself and your enemy ensures victory in every battle."

He put his hands in his pockets and continued, "Lin Xu and his teammates once wanted to tear us apart, and they suffered a significant loss at our hands."

"Who knows how Lin Xu and his team are doing now. To run into an epic Monster Tide like this is incredibly unlucky. Such a Monster Tide hasn't appeared in eight hundred years; it's practically a relic in textbooks." Chu Yun stood nearby, arms crossed, and sighed softly.

"You also feel something is off about this Monster Tide?" Jiang Se turned her head to look at Chu Yun.

"Of course. The Monster Tide didn't come earlier or later, but precisely when the Grand Drill is about to start, and the injured are from our Alliance University team. I think someone is trying to harm the students of Alliance University!"

Chu Yun said with determination.

As a mech soldier, she naturally spoke in a straightforward manner.

After all, the vice-principal had just mentioned that this large-scale exercise not only involved rankings among the military academies but also stark competition for interests, with every star sector and their respective military zones eyeing each competitor with suspicion.

And as everyone knew, humans were capable of anything when it came to pure self-interest.

"Still, let's focus on preparing for the competition!"

Thinking about the competition, Jiang Se couldn't help but feel a headache. The vice-principal had just said that all the school's mech materials would be at her disposal for upgrading the mechs of the four of them, which was bound to be a massive project.

Recalling the easy-going client from the neural communication, Jiang Se took a deep breath.

The road ahead truly seemed filled with late nights!

Endless assignments, endless mech construction!

At this moment, the client in the neural communication also sent her a message, asking when the mech arm would be completed.

After a brief thought, Jiang Se replied that it would be ready in three days.

Meanwhile, the starship assigned to transport them had landed, its massive form settling on the square in front of the barren planet.

The starship was about to carry these young people to an unfamiliar star domain, and a legend of the space age was about to unfold.
