Although the external circle did not know much about it, members who had participated in the last IG would know that the strongest guy might not be Olivios. There was another uncrowned king from Earth.
“Lao Xiong, are you alright?” Barry had ran over and looking at Lao Xiong’s ankle worriedly. It had become swollen like a bun.
“No problem. This level… Damn! Scr*w his sister!”
Lao Xiong tried to stand up again. However, when his swollen left leg stepped ontp the floor, he felt an intense pain and retracted his left leg. He could step on the ground. This wasn’t an issue with his willpower but a reflex action of the body. It was impossible to overcome it. He would require some time for the brain to get used to the pain and not react reflexively.
Wang Zheng seemed to be a little depressed. He looked at the front and saw that the tall and shorts figure had almost disappeared from his sight. He turned around and extended his hand to Lao Xiong. “Let me carry you.”
“No way…” Lao Xiong knew how heavy he was. Moreover, the battle load he carried was more than 2 times heavier than the rest.
Wang Zheng smiled and did not say anything. He extended his hand and pulled. He adjusted himself a little and placed Lao Xiong and his battle load that was 2x heavier than the rest on his back.
“Are you ready?”
“Wait!”
“Barry, keep up with me. Let’s go.”
Boom.
Wang Zheng exerted his strength suddenly and he shot out like an arrow.
Barry’s eyes widened as he saw Wang Zheng, who was carrying Lao Xiong, moved just like a gust of wind. When he had reacted, they were already over 10 metres in front of him. “Wait for me…”
Barry had also increased his pace and was able to catch up. Barry had the feeling that the current speed of Wang Zheng was fixed at the maximum level which was enough for him to follow. If he wasn’t around, perhaps…
Wang Zheng would be even faster?
Was it just an illusion?
However, the rookie was really strong! Barry clearly knew how heavy Lao Xiong was. Moreover, the battle load that Lao Xiong carried during training was much heavier.
“Damn, are you a strength-type Ability X user?” Lao Xiong was stunned for half a minute before regaining his conscious. Damn, it felt quite comfortable to be carried by someone running. Surprisingly, it wasn’t bumpy at all.
Wan Zheng smiled faintly and said,” It was just that I was born with great strength. Hold on tight! Let’s catch up with them!”
In the end, the Red Fox Section had won. Not only did the student soldier know how to repair mecha, he also had a body of brute strength.
The Red Fox Section had a great time eating their breakfast. Things that were snatched from others always tasted better. This was the same as the idea that the meat stolen from another person’s bowl always tasted better.
Based on the description by Lao Xiong, Wang Zheng had become the hero. If Wang Zheng had not stood up during the critical time, he would definitely be finished.
“Damn, was the student soldier so strong? What a hero.”
“Rubbish, are doubting me?” Lao Xiong had already jumped up.
“Hehe. Of course not. It seems that we had another talent in our section. Do you want to consider reconsidering using heavy armour mecha?”
The Red Fox had been scrutinising Wang Zheng. “You said your group were ambushed by a shorty?”
“Yes captain. That kid seemed to be from Gemini Star and was also a student soldier. However, his strength was off the charts and was involved in something called the IG.” Lao Xiong replied nonchalantly.
However, the Red Fox clearly knew what IG symbolised. She was slightly taken aback and said,” How did you all managed to escape then?”
Barry pointed at Wang Zheng and said,” Boss, the shorty from Gemini star seemed to have seen a ghost when he saw Wang Zheng. He ran away faster than a rabbit.”
Wang Zheng did not whether to cry or laugh. “Was I that ugly?”
“He probably was terrified by what I said. I had the resolve to go down with them at that moment.” laughed Lao Xiong. Even if he had lost, he would not lose in appearance. He should still act imposingly.
Lao Xiong patted on Wang Zheng’s shoulders and his intentions were clear. He was telling everyone he would be looking after Wang Zheng from then on.
The Red Fox took a look at Wang Zheng and revealed a faint smile from the side of her lips. She commended Wang Zheng.
It would seem that Wang Zheng’s strength would still be above the bare standards. In the military, strength would be your best friend. Everyone would wish that their comrades were strong. To be cruelly truthful, it would increase one’s survival rate. In other words, if you had a weak comrade, he might just cause everyone to die together.
After finishing their breakfast, they would be following their schedule. The Red Fox brought along 5 people and left the base for patrolling of the streets. Lao Xiong was one of the 5 people.
The rest were free to do what they wanted. However, they could not leave the base and had to be stayed on standby at all times.
Everyone had their stuff to do except Wang Zheng…
His original mission was to clean the mecha. However, he had completed it over the weekend. Jing Long had ordered him to rest well.
However, Wang Zheng was full of vigour. Before the morning training, he might still be a little sleepy. However, he was no longer sleepy after the morning training. He was even full of energy after finishing his breakfast and wanted to find something to do.
Wang Zheng arrived at the communication building in the base. After a series of checks, Wang Zheng’s Skylink was finally functioning. However, due to communication restriction, he would have to use the public channels to contact externally. After he had settled all the gritty stuff, it was probably a good time to inform Yan Xiaosu and Ye Zisu that he was safe. Actually, Wang Zheng would also like to know about other small matters but was worried about it.
There was a library in the base. The electronic board was connected to the Milky Way Library in Roland Garros. It was just that it required clearance to access special documents…
As a soldier of the Milky Way Alliance, he could only access books that were between LVL1 and LVL3. What had caught Wang Zheng’s eyes was the introduction of Tita Titan Star. If he could re-activate his Skylink, with the classification of his Skylink, everything other than specially encrypted files would be available to him.
Wang Zheng was reading a book while waiting for the verification of the signals. After some time, it was finally cleared. From the level of prudence, the situation of Titan Star was a little more sensitive than he had thought. It seemed that the value of the super gravity energy mineral ore was greater than he had imagined.
One of the uses of this type of mineral was that it could be used on the materials for mecha to amplify Ability X. Also, it would also be greatly useful in improving the energy use of propulsion devices.
Obviously, deeper research and development would be required after establishing a research base.
Finally, the connection with Ye Zisu was established. As for Yan Xiaosu, no one knew if he was picking up girls.
The image of Ye Zisu appeared. She was exhilarated to see Wang Zheng.
“Don’t act like this. We have not seen each other for only a period of time. Don’t behave as though ive committed a crime.” laughed Wang Zheng.
“How can you still say such words after contacting us after a long time? I’m really angry!”
“Please don’t be angry. There was a communication restriction on Titan Star. There was something that popped up and I had just settled it. In fact, ive contacted you at the first available instance! Where is Yan Xiaosu?” replied Wang Zheng with a smile. Seeing Ye Zisu made him feel that he was still alive. At least he still had friends and wouldn’t be feeling lonely.
“There had been more commercial activities recently. He is currently on the Moon and was considering if he should drop out of school.”
“Let him decide on this matter by himself. Has he been causing trouble?”
“He has been alright other than how frequent he had been changing his girlfriends.” laughed Ye Zisu.
Wang Zheng did not know whether to cry or laugh. Tyrant Su was once a devoted person. Such drastic changes seemed to have happened so quickly.
A signal joined the conversation shortly. Yan Xiaosu had appeared too.
“*Sob, sob, sob*. Boss, I missed you so much. I had thought that I would never see you again.” The big face of Yan Xiaosu moved closer.
“Get away from me. Why have you grown even fatter? Weren’t you already well-fed when I wasn’t around?”
“Nope. These were the results of missing you.” laughed Yan Xiaosu as even his fat fingers were shaking. He was really worried about Wang Zheng for this period of time. “Oh ya, I have seen Solon yesterday. This old man really wished to meet you and was waiting for you to return. He would like to treat you to a big meal.”
“Solon? Oh, the CEO of CT?”
“Yep that’s right. He was a really interesting and simple old man. He was running for a seat to be the committee member of the Solar System Council with uncle Ye. If they succeed, we would have a voice in the federation!”
Yan Xiaosu said excitedly.
“Committee member?”
“This was a suggestion from my father. When the company has reached a certain level of development, it would require a level of political protection. Our connection in this aspect was a little weak. The best way was to ride the current momentum and do it personally.” replied Ye Zisu. From her gaze, one could see decisiveness. Although she wasn’t willing to dabble much into this aspect, she knew the importance of it.
Having borne with a family background in commerce, there was a distinct difference from Meng Tian. Deep inside, Meng Tian still placed much emphasis on justice and being direct. However, Ye Zisu knew that they would need to have their own voice in this rule-based environment to protect her family members and their future.
However, they would require the help of Meng Ao. This was because the race to become a committee member of the Solar System Federation would require a level of support from the military. Clearly, with Meng Ao’s qualifications, there wouldn’t be many problems.
Unknowingly, they had their own circles now.
“Boss, let’s do business together when you are back. Don’t be a brainless soldier. It would be so boring!” Yan Xiaosu couldn’t stand seeing Wang Zheng suffer. He was clearly a genius and yet he was exiled to such a place. It’s unfair!
Wang Zheng smiled. “It’s beautiful here. Truthfully speaking, this place suits me. Rest assured, I will be back soon.”
“Are you confident of it?” Ye Zisu probed further subconsciously.
Wang Zheng knew that Ye Zisu and Yan Xiaosu must have known about the situation of Titan Star and the reasons why he would be assigned to this place. They just weren’t willing to say it in his face.
“Since when did I have a habit of quitting? There are difficulties but also opportunities. This would be a great trial for me. Besides that, Zisu, can you come over if you have the time? It would be best if you could bring along people with the expertise in mecha design. I have some new thoughts.”
Wang Zheng was calm when he said it. However Ye Zisu and Yan Xiaosu became serious. They knew that Wang Zheng would not had said it if he had no clear ideas. There must be something big for them to do to be called to that faraway place.
“Alright. I will arrange my trip immediately. As for manpower, I will bring along several of our core members.”
“Boss, I would want to go too. There must be some Aboriginal girls.” Yan Xiaosu shouted.
“You should stay behind and not travel around. If there’s anything, we can still contact you. Moreover, the aboriginal ladies at this place are over 5 metres tall. You wouldn’t be able to do anything even if you were here.”
Instantly, Yan Xiaosu’s interests faded. One arm of the girl would be as thick as him.
Yan Xiaosu was finally able to relax after seeing that Wang Zheng was fine.
After switching off the Skylink, Wang Zheng was reading about the introduction of Titan Star. However, he was thinking of something else.
