Wang Zheng came into contact with some stuff relating to this aspect when he was in the Lan Family. The Lan Family had always wished to build a very strong mech to supplement the military force of the humans on this planet, especially the Lan Family. However the technologies for mecha were always kept in secret and isolation and an immigrant planet would not be able to achieve it by themselves. The most crucial thing was that the common design concepts were of no use in this place.
However, Wang Zheng had a rough concept in his mind. Together with Ye Zisu’s talent and help from the Lan Family, there was a great possibility that there would be a breakthrough.
Once it achieved success, there would be multiple benefits. Furthermore, OMG couldn’t just rely on the Wind God mech. This was especially so since Ye Bingwen was running for committee member election. It would be the best if OMG could achieve another amazing breakthrough and was not just a short-lived success
Politics were something he wasn’t unfamiliar with. On the contrary, the Old Merchant had told him a lot about it. A good scientist wouldn’t be too bad in this aspect. If they could not manage relationships, their research would not be able to continue further. However, Wang Zheng and Merchant had the same views on this matter. That would be to not be involved in it if they could. Sometimes they would still need to achieve a good return with minimal effort so people would not disregard them.
Wang Zheng’s stunning performance had allowed him to impress the Red Fox Section.
Although Wang Zheng did not say anything, the Red Fox wasn’t silly too. Moreover, women had a natural attention to detail that men couldn’t compare to.
She had not paid attention because she had heard that he was from Earth. With regard to the distribution of manpower, the Red Fox had many opinions on it. It was clearly biased. Among the recruits that were assigned to Titan Star, 3 of them were student soldiers. However, one of them was from the Silver Snake Republic and one of them was from the Gemini Union. Only one of them was from the Solar System Federation. There were clear differences in strength and she was assigned the one from Earth. This had resulted in her being disadvantaged in the race to become the Squadron Leader.
However, it was surprising that Wang Zheng was not as weak as she had imagined. He was serious with his work and was hardworking. At the same time, he was very strong. Could he be a heavy armour mech pilot?
Even muscle related Ability X users rarely chose heavy armour mecha because of their physique. This was because Ability X users were only good for short explosive periods while operating heavy armour mech would require endurance.
The introductory information of Wang Zheng only had the place he was from and the school. The Red Fox had wanted to find out more but realized that her authority wasn’t enough.
This had surprised the Red Fox. How could she not be allowed to access it with her authority on Titan Star?
This was hilarious. How could someone from Earth have any fancy abilities? It seemed that she would have to interact more with the new member and cultivate a good relationship. She was the boss of this place and she would need to clearly know the conditions of every member. Obviously, she wasn’t interested in their personal information but would need to understand their strengths.
Jing Long and the rest brought Wang Zheng along for lunch. Strength was the number one option to be recognised. Wang Zheng was straightforward, brave and did not feel like a student. Lao Xiong was very fond of it while Otaku Barry had made Wang Zheng his idol. This was because not only that Wang Zheng was strong, he knew a lot with regards to the knowledge of mecha. Wang Zheng knew his stuff although it was slightly worse than him. Nonetheless, Wang Zheng was rather professional in it and would have no problem becoming a maintenance technician.
“Otaku Barry, Wang Zheng and you are both student soldiers but he is so much fitter. You have to train too. After all, you are a mech pilot. Even if you are playing the support role, you would need more muscles. You look just like a small chick now.” said Lao Xiong as he patted Barry’s shoulders.
Barry’s body was shaking and scratched his head embarrassing. “Truthfully speaking, I did not want to become a mech pilot. I wanted to be a mecha designer.”
“How could a brainless soldier like you be a mecha designer? I even wanted to be a poet in the past!” said Lao Xiong seriously.
Everyone was taken aback and burst into laughter instantly. “Lao Xiong, if you could become a poet, I would be Shakespeare.”
“Eh, isn’t this Jing Long? Where is your master?” A warrior brought along a group of people and was walking directly towards them proudly. “Oh, I knew it; it must be because she knew she had no chance of becoming the Squadron Leader.”
“Huang Jingrong, here you go again. If you want to fight me, I will entertain you.” Jing Long replied with a fierce tone. Due to the fact that the leader of the Red Fox Section was a female, they had been ridiculed multiple times. However, all of them were convinced in making Red Fox their captain.
Huang Jingrong was the captain of the Golden Fox Section and was an existence that had the strength to compete to be the Squadron leader. Although Huang Jingrong was from the Milky Way Alliance, he was an immigrant of Tita and had good relationship with the local forces. He was also interested in the position of Squadron leader. He truly wanted to be here and didn’t wish for the conflicts to be resolved.
“Hehe. We are in the canteen right now. You do not need to worry. There will be opportunities for us to fight.” said Huang Jingrong calmly.
“Kong Zhan, come over and meet our vice-captain of the Red Fox Section Jing Long. You can look for him to give guidance if there is an opportunity. You do not need to give face to out Captain Jing Long. He loves to be beaten.”
Huang Jingrong introduced enthusiastically.
“Huang Jingrong, it seemed that you haven’t been improving as you age. You even have the gall to showcase a student soldier.”
“Haha, Jing Long, you are the silly one. Did you know the reason behind why the Silver Fox and I had disappeared for a few days? It was for snatching people. He is the captain of the Silver Snake Team. The one from Norton Star that Silver Fox had gotten was just a reserve of his IG team. My student soldier could just use one hand and easily defeat you!” mocked the Golden Fox.
The Red Fox Section was stunned. Although they had not paid much attention to IG, they knew that those from IG were all really strong. Although they might be a little young and tender, their individual fighting skills were beyond doubt and weren’t something that an ordinary mech warrior could compete with. Moreover, this guy was the captain of the Silver Snake Coalition. He was definitely one of the strongest.
The soldiers in the canteen had raised their ears. The battle for the Squadron Leader position had reached the crucial stage. The strength of the section was of utmost importance. This was truly terrifying battle strength. The Silver Snake Republic was known to be very strong. Their captain could easily become a general in the future. Although he was young, he was definitely a prominent figure. What would such a prominent person be doing in this place?
Kong Zhan was calm and at ease. The performance of the Silver Snake in IG was still acceptable and his surrender had not caused too much of a commotion. This was because he was facing Wang Zheng. If he was to fight, the momentum for the later battles would be totally destroyed. The facts had shown that battling Wang Zheng would have led to a brutal result. Rumours had it that Bordia of Atlantis had left the temple. Losing was a small thing but he was in fear of Wang Zheng after the battle and it would be difficult for him to overcome it.
Kong Zhan had thought that he had overcome his fear. However, he realised he couldn’t concentrate no matter how hard it tried after the IG ended. Whenever he touched a mech, he would remember the terrifying person he had met. He would not be able to maintain control no matter how hard he tried in his entire life. Therefore, he had applied to go to this wild land to clear his mind and train both his mind and body.
The Golden Fox was even more satisfied. This brat was not only strong but also kept a low profile and followed his orders. He would definitely be a good soldier. Obviously, he would not stay around this place for long but as long as he could become the Squadron Leader, it would be enough. He would also give a good appraisal of Kong Zhan.
“Hehe. what about your guy from Earth? Where is the master from the origin of mankind? I have not seen him. Would you want the two student soldiers to spar? I heard that the student soldiers who came all had IG experience.” said the Golden Fox happily.
Suddenly, Kong Zhan’s could felt his heart beat harder.
The Red Fox Section was furious. They had not heard about the Solar System Federation for a long time but they knew about their strength. They were often only be in the first round of IG. This asshole was insulting them directly.
“You can stop your taunts Golden Fox. What can reputation do? Let’s find a field and find out who’s stronger. I do want to see if your student soldier can live up to his name!” said Lao Xiong. Wang Zheng was already a brother of theirs and he would not allow them to bully him.
Wang Zheng walked out from the crowd and smile gently. “Kong Zhan, it has been a long time since I saw you. I had never expected to see you here.”
Kong Zhan’s heart started thumping beyond his wildest imagination. This was just like his nightmare. He had seen what he was most afraid of. He had already decided to hide here but why would he still encounter Wang Zheng???
“Yo, it seems that the both of you knew one another. Could it be that you had faced each other in the competition.” laughed the Golden Fox.
Kong Zhan could no longer take it. If this continued, he would want to dig a hole and bury himself.
“Captain, you must have been kidding. Let me introduce you to Wang Zheng, the captain of the Solar System Federation team. They were second in the latest IG. At the same time, he was the strongest person in the latest IG. I would not be able to beat him even if he had both of his hand tied up.”
Kong Zhan said with a forced smiled. Was it destined for foes to meet? It seemed that he wouldn’t be considered a foe of Wang Zheng. All he wanted was to avoid this fear. He was able to do so in the end but he end up facing the real person.
The whole canteen went silent. Second in the IG and the strongest person?
“What? Wasn’t the champion Arbiter Republic? I remembered that the strongest person was Olivios?” remarked the Golden Fox.
