Chapter 111 It’s Too Late to Mend the Fence After the Sheep Have Been Lost (16)

When the Star Network detects that someone has been "fatally injured" during the exercise, it will send them out of the virtual space as a sign of "death".

This was an overwhelming battle that should have ended with Kanwa's heavy casualties. However, because Shen Minghuan ended so quickly and the cold weapon fighting had just begun, the personnel on both sides had not suffered much loss.

But Dinghe was unable to fight anymore.

Every one of their mechas was snatched away by this group of bandits. The gangsters even started dividing the loot in front of them, and even planned to have a fight to decide who owned the mechas.

I simply didn't take them seriously, damn it!

The First Army has finally figured it out. With a commander in hand, they are just fooling around. It doesn't matter whoever operates this mecha, they can't help anyway.

Shen Minghuan did not interfere. He blinked innocently and commanded Dinghe: "Classmate, you see you have no mechas, how can you survive the exercise? Why don't you come with us? Our First Army will meet To protect you."

This was the first day of the exercise. Commander Ding He was not willing to end like this, but he still snorted and said firmly: "Ding He didn't surrender his troops. We can lose, but we can't lose our integrity!"

"How can this be surrender?" Shen Minghuan corrected him, "This is called alliance."

"...Why do you want to form an alliance with us?" Commander Ding He looked at the bleak situation on the field and felt that it was unnecessary no matter how much he thought about it. With Shen Minghuan's ability, he could lead the First Army to sweep through the five major military academies.

"Why waste time when you can end it early? Classmate of Dinghe, just tell me if you are willing?" Although it was a question, Shen Minghuan's tone was full of determination, "I haven't cut off your banner yet, it's my sincerity ”

Commander Dinghe was moved, "Then what's in it for us?"

Shen Minghuan said seriously, "Although I can't help you get first place, I'm still sure of second place."

Commander Dinghe was even more excited, "Seriously?"

It doesn't matter where you are, the main thing is to win against the Supreme Army.

"Of course." Shen Minghuan was very sure.

"So...a deal?" Commander Dinghe couldn't wait.

Shen Minghuan smiled and said, "Happy cooperation."

Shen Minghuan left a small team to guard Dinghe's flag. After whispering to them, he safely took the others away without even taking a break and went straight to the next military academy.

With Dinghe's full help, they ended more quickly.

[Is this for a quick victory? The commander always remembered what he said. He was very serious about ending the battle as soon as possible for the deputy commander. 】

[I knew Wuming was young, but I didn’t know he was so young. I know Wuming is very powerful, but even to death I can’t believe he is so powerful! 】

[In the past, regardless of the size of military exercises, the first army and the highest army competed for first place and second place every time. This time it was finally different. 】

[But isn’t this unfair to the Supreme Army? They have worked hard for so long. I admit that they lost to the First Army. What kind of joke was they losing to Dinghe? 】

The Supreme Army also has supporters, and many people who like and even admire this school can't help but start complaining about it.

But the debate didn't last long.

They watched helplessly as Shen Minghuan said the same words to the commander of the next military school——

"Classmates, do you want to form an alliance?"

Shen Ming laughed innocently and shyly: "After the military exercise is over, our First Army will take first place, and you will be second."

The commander of the military academy was indeed very moved and made the immediate decision to lead everyone to follow Shen Minghuan's footsteps.

Netizens: [……]

They looked at the high-spirited conductor Ding He on the other side, and felt that the originally heroic temperament suddenly became honest, and the eyes that were originally intelligent were now filled with clear stupidity.

Netizens who just complained about the supreme military are now hating that iron cannot become steel:

[Stop chatting, go and listen next to Commander Shen and hear how he sold you! 】

[But I’m so anxious, smile, smile, what’s so funny? 】

In just half a day, Shen Minghuan followed the same pattern and took away the four military academies neatly, leaving behind a small team from each.

Netizens just watched Shen Minghuan draw a piece of cake and four people rushed to eat it. They didn't know if it was because this person was lucky and didn't overturn until the end.

The commander-in-chief of each military academy thought they would be the runner-up.

【I’m convinced. 】

[A good commander is good at deceiving people, oh no, he is good at using tactics. 】

[I am very curious. After this military exercise is over, will the six major military academies break off diplomatic relations on the spot? 】

[So is anyone betting? Guess which military school is in second place? I vote for the highest military. 】

[Laughing, this is only the first day, the first place has already been determined, I also vote for the Supreme Army. 】

[As a fan of Supreme Army, I can’t say that they can take first place against my will, so I vote for Supreme Army’s second place. 】

Out of respect for another top military academy, Shen Minghuan put the Supreme Military Academy at the end.

But on the way, he learned that the deputy commander's city construction speed was a little slow, so he stopped by and left all the people without mechas to help.

Deputy Commander Chu He's expression was dull when he saw the person: "Commander, you..."

No wonder this person said at the beginning that there was no need to build a city. According to this progress, the exercise ended before the city was built.

Shen Minghuan patted his shoulder comfortingly: "If you persist, there will be a city and victory."

Chu He nodded stiffly.

"So the alliance can be absent?" Shen Minghuan looked at him expectantly.

Chu He: "..."

Does the commander think that I am obsessed with building a city and forming an alliance?

Chu He thought about the conversation between the two and realized that Shen Minghuan might have really misunderstood, and he couldn't help but laugh and cry.

He shouldn't have said too much!

He also wanted to follow the commander to expand the territory!

However, he soon felt excited again. Although there was not much participation experience in this military exercise, it was the first time for them to have such a thorough and shocking victory.

Chu He showed an evil smile and said reservedly: "It can also be absent."

With more than 300 mechas on our side, it would be unacceptable if we could lose.

Shen Minghuan led his men to the city of the Supreme Army. They made rapid progress and the city had been built for more than half, only the finishing touch was left.

The scene was very spectacular, and netizens watched with relish.

The commander-in-chief of the Supreme Army was incredulous, "You, the First Army, and those four military academies are in alliance? You are crazy, after we eliminate them, you will be the next one!"

Commander-in-chief Dinghe laughed with a mysterious expression.

The Supreme Army was defeated under the fierce offensive. The mortal bodies had almost no ability to resist under the mecha. The commander-in-chief could only watch the number of his own people on the panel decrease rapidly.

He cursed and shouted loudly: "First Army, let's join forces to solve them first, and the first place will be given to you."

The four commanders laughed "hehehe" together, which made the commander-in-chief of the Supreme Army angry, "What are you laughing at? What's so funny?"

Are these people sick?

He originally thought that even if Shen Minghuan disagreed, the four major military academies would have some grudges when they heard this.

Damn, what did the First Army do to them!

Shen Minghuan eliminated people one by one slowly, and soon only the commander-in-chief of the First Army was left on the field.

He managed the time very accurately. The deputy commander just informed him that the city had been built. The students had even gone sightseeing and saved a lot of photos.

Shen Minghuan opened the operation cabin and smiled at the commander-in-chief of the First Army, "It's over."

The Star Network live broadcast gave him a close-up. Everyone saw him raise his hand and quietly turn on the communication light brain.

"Goodbye." Shen Minghuan said goodbye politely.

As soon as he finished speaking, the flags in the other four military academy live broadcast rooms that had not made any noise for a long time were cut off at the same time.

——It was a team he had left behind.

[All the Supreme Army was killed and eliminated. ]

[Dinghe Army, xx Army... The flags have been broken and eliminated. ]

The Star Network paused for a moment and continued to broadcast: [The First Army is the only surviving force and won the first place in this military exercise; the second, the second... The rest tied for second. ]

The Star Network judgment program was instantly disordered.

[... The commander was so honest and did what he said. I thought he was using tactics, but he was making a promise very seriously. ]

[I am a bit dazed now. The military exercise is over? This is only the first day, right? ]

[Do you feel that although the commander is powerful, he is really like a child. I don’t know if it is because he has been in the remote Lanxing before and has not been in contact with many people and things, so he seems particularly innocent now. ]

[Yes, yes, yes, I also found that no matter what people around him say, he takes it seriously, and can’t even hear jokes. ]

I don’t know since when, "commander" seems to have become the default name for Shen Minghuan. There is more than one commander in this military exercise, but when these two words are mentioned, everyone thinks of the childish child first.

[It’s painful to think about it. It must be very difficult for the commander to grow up so well under such conditions. ]

[Wow, my Huan baby——]

[With S-level talent, if he was born on a first-class star, he would definitely be the baby of his parents, and he would grow up with stars and fine clothes, and he would have everything, and the alliance would give him the best resources. Such a good boy should not suffer those hardships. He deserves the best treatment in the world. ]

[The commander was kind and thought that the deputy commander was uncomfortable and was reluctant to force him to give up this opportunity, so he could only end the exercise quickly. He told other commanders that he would give them the second place, and in the end he really lived up to their trust. He originally thought that there was no need to build a city, but the deputy commander wanted it, and he agreed. ]

[Although, the deputy commander didn't really want to build a city, and he didn't feel uncomfortable...]

[So the commander is very simple! ]

[That is, don't think that a 16-year-old boy who grew up on a garbage planet knows much about the ways of the world. He just came to the Imperial Star, isn't it normal that he doesn't understand these things? To be honest, if I wasn't an insider, I would also think that the deputy commander's face at that time was not very good. ]

Shen Minghuan came out of the virtual space and was surrounded by excited classmates in the middle, asking about his well-being. He smiled, as if he saw the same crazy netizens.

Tragedy is the destruction of beauty.

If you want to cause heart-wrenching grief, you must first praise that person to a high place. The higher and more sacred, the more sad it will be when he falls into the abyss.

And what can attract people's attention more than beauty, strength and misery?

In the interstellar age, technology is so convenient that people can easily watch a person's life trajectory, be happy for him, be sad for him, be excited for him, and be heartbroken for him.

It would be a pity not to use him.

*

Principal Xie Xu did not hide his preference for Shen Minghuan. After the routine review and summary meeting, he took Shen Minghuan away openly, making it clear that he wanted to give him special treatment.

But Shen Minghuan was Xie Xu's direct disciple, so no one could say anything.

Moreover, after this incident, Shen Minghuan's reputation among the crowd has reached a new level. He is young, and with his miserable life experience, he has become the most favored one in the military academy.

It is not an exaggeration to say that he is the most favored one in the alliance.

Principal Xie Xu smiled and pretended to blame: "Minghuan, you have given the teacher a big problem. Remember to save some face for them next time. You still have to consider the impact on the school."

Shen Minghuan half raised his head, "I paid attention. I only beat the highest army. The teacher said so."

The other military academies were eliminated after their flags were cut off, and most of them survived at the end. Only the highest army was eliminated because all of them were "killed in battle".

Xie Xu remembered the message he sent to Shen Minghuan before the start, and couldn't help laughing, feeling half proud and half relieved.

Principal Xie is serious to all students, but for some reason, he always softens his heart when he sees Shen Minghuan, and even speaks in a gentle tone.

He rubbed Shen Minghuan's head, "You performed very well, but this is a military exercise, and you still have to follow the rules. How can you command the soldiers to charge and fight as long as they can save their lives?"

Shen Minghuan thought about it and explained seriously: "The rules don't say no."

He has a good memory. Before the military exercise, Star Network let them know the rules and regulations. Shen Minghuan is sure that there is no such rule.

If someone else said this, it would be a bit specious, but Shen Minghuan has always been sincere and serious. In the eyes of the people of the First Army, he can't even joke, let alone quibble.

Xie Xu asked with a smile: "Then when you go to the real battlefield and lead the army to go to war, will you also have to deal with the Zerg alone?"

"Why not?" Shen Minghuan asked unconvinced.

The principal tapped Shen Minghuan's forehead with his fingers, and he pretended to teach him: "Individual heroism is not desirable, little friend. At critical moments, you must believe in the power of the collective."

Although he didn't use much force, the principal still subconsciously rubbed his little head cleanly, "The Zerg are different from those young people in the greenhouse, Minghuan, don't underestimate them, it is a taboo to underestimate the enemy."

These so-called campus celebrities are nothing if they are thrown on the battlefield. Any soldier from the four legions can do Shen Minghuan's shocking performance today.

The gap between students and soldiers is so big. Without experiencing the baptism of blood and fire, without feeling the line of life and death, no matter how good the school grades are, they are just talk on paper.

"Oh." Shen Minghuan responded obediently: "Teacher, don't worry, I will treat the Zerg very carefully."

Xie Xu nodded with satisfaction, stroking his beard and laughing: "You are worthy of being my good apprentice."

The setting sun's afterglow spread to the ground, as if it made the time soft and long.

Later, the Zerg covered the vision with grayness, and Shen Minghuan stood alone in front.

Xie Xu thought of this evening in panic, and then he realized that Shen Minghuan had not made any promises.

He had never promised to stop being a hero from the beginning to the end.

He decided to be a hero a long time ago.

*

The military exercise that was originally expected to last for one month ended in one day, disrupting the arrangements of the six major military academies.

In order to make up for this period of time, they had to prepare another military exercise and deprived Shen Minghuan of the qualification to participate, saying that he needed more formal training.

Although Shen Minghuan did not participate, his shadow seemed to be everywhere on the battlefield. In the past, when the First Army changed shifts, the students took the time to rest and recuperate, but now they are looking for Shen Minghuan for help all over the school.

Until most of the exercise time had passed, the advantage of the First Army was already very obvious. After leaving the Star Network, they still habitually looked for Shen Minghuan as soon as possible.

"East, east, Teacher Chen said he saw Ming Huan going to the east of the school just now!"

"Really? But the security guard said he saw Ming Huan in the south playground half an hour ago."

"Have you looked in the library? I've checked these two rows of study rooms, and there's no one in them."

"Hey, Mosinian, we've looked in the front, you three go to the left, let's go, let's go to the right."

The classmates shouted and ran away, the scene was extremely chaotic, and those who didn't know would think something big had happened.

Yan Ji stopped panting, "I don't understand why we don't use optical computers. Is technology just for show!"

"Is that the problem?" Mo Sinian laughed and said, "Today is the last day of the exercise. Our First Army is sure to win. Isn't it strange that they are looking for Ming Huan at this time?"

Lu Zhiyi also laughed, "But it's fun. I really hope to have a few more exercises. However, the situation on the front line has stabilized, and the teachers are on their way back. I guess we will have classes as usual next time."

A month passed quickly. Life on campus was chaotic and peaceful. It seemed that there were a lot of new things waiting for us every day when we woke up and opened our eyes. We would never be bored.

"It's a good thing that the situation has stabilized." Mo Sinian nodded heavily, his eyes shining, full of uncontrollable joy. He also received news that Mo Hongxue and Mo Hexuan were back this time and would stay in the Imperial Star for a while.

Their family hadn't been together for a long time.

However, thinking of the word "family", Mo Sinian's mood was slightly depressed again.

"Si Nian?" Yan Ji was very sensitive to his friend's mood changes.

Mos Nian gave a somewhat forced smile, "It's okay, I just feel that... the alliance has sacrificed a lot of heroes this time."

This is indeed the case.

And usually the stronger the spiritual power talent, the greater the probability of sacrifice.

Only the Zerg are the law of the jungle.

The strong of the human race have always protected their compatriots behind them. When the crisis comes, they are the strongest line of defense.

Yan Ji exaggeratedly changed the subject, "Ah, I'm so tired. Where did Shen Minghuan hide?"

The classmates of the First Army did not find the abnormal relationship between them and Shen Minghuan, so they naturally invited them to join the "Find Shen Minghuan" happy game.

They didn't know how to explain, so they had to agree happily on the surface, but in fact they were slacking off.

"Are you looking for me?"

A little head suddenly popped out of the window on the second floor. Shen Minghuan wore a red fox mask today. The boy, who was spoiled by all the teachers and students and became more and more confident and domineering, was a little timid at this moment. He tried to say: "I think I heard my name just now?" Lu Zhiyi's fingers trembled.

"Maybe I heard it wrong." Shen Minghuan said and was about to shrink back.

"Wait, I heard you right!" Mo Sinian felt a little sad for no reason. His instincts took precedence over his reason. When he reacted, he had already called Shen Minghuan.

Mo Sinian pursed his lips. It was not that he regretted it, but... what should he say?

Yan Ji also felt a little guilty. Seeing that Mo Sinian had expressed his feelings, he breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly agreed: "Yes, yes, we are looking for you."

He blinked at Lu Zhiyi, using his eyes to show that he still remembered the agreement between them, and now it was just a show.

Lu Zhiyi forced a smile and lowered his head.

These days, he watched Shen Minghuan do everything on the virtual battlefield, watched this person stir up the storm while talking and laughing, and was sought after on the Star Network. He almost forgave himself.

——But Shen Minghuan was still a young man with a miserable life, with an overly sensitive heart and an overly upright and kind character.

Lu Zhiyi's guilt spread layer by layer.

He would rather Shen Minghuan blame him, hate him, and retaliate against him, but this person has an unbelievable good temper and only knows how to accommodate others.

He thought about it carefully. In all the time he knew Shen Minghuan, he had never heard of this person rejecting anyone's request.

And the only time Shen Minghuan could be called angry was when he saw them sneaking out of the barracks rashly when they first met, and refused to ask for help when they met the Zerg.

In addition, even when he said such hurtful words before, Shen Minghuan's eyes were clear and frank.

Such a person deserves such brilliant treatment.

Shen Minghuan deserves all the good things in the world.

Lu Zhiyi secretly glanced at his friend again, he thought, but Mo Sinian is different, Sinian is not as good as Shen Minghuan, he has to protect Sinian.

Mo Sinian was still racking his brains to think of a topic, "Well, Minghuan, we are going to win the military exercise."

Shen Minghuan was obviously stunned, as if he didn't expect that the topic that the other party came to talk to him about after the "falling out" would be so simple, but he soon laughed: "Well, I watched the live broadcast, you are very good."

Shen Minghuan often praises people, and his deeds are widely circulated on the forum. There are countless people who have been praised by him.

He is a genius among thousands of people. Those who are praised by him are not as good as him, but he is very sincere, and every word comes from the heart.

Someone on the forum wrote a 3,000-word paper in a disgusting way, describing Shen Minghuan as his salvation.

He wrote that the First Army is full of talents, and he has fallen into a low point of inferiority and self-loathing since he entered school. It was Shen Minghuan who made him believe that he might not be that bad.

The long article is full of deep feelings and deceived many tears.

Yan Ji blushed, "No, no, it's all your credit."

"I just put forward a little idea, and you are the ones who worked hard."

Shen Minghuan grabbed the windowsill and jumped down from above. The fiery red little fox was dazzling. He smiled and said, "It was my classmates who turned my idea into reality. I should thank everyone."

"Shen Minghuan!"

The three were shocked.

Lu Zhiyi blamed in fear: "This is the second floor, how could you jump down directly?"

"It's only the second floor." Shen Minghuan didn't care much, "We are soldiers, this height is nothing."

"What kind of soldier is it? You are still a student! A sixteen-year-old child!" Yan Ji retorted fiercely.

Mo Sinian also emphasized: "Don't do this in the future, it's very dangerous."

Seeing Shen Minghuan nod obediently, he retracted his serious expression and replaced it with a hesitant and tangled expression.

Without waiting for others to ask, Mo Sinian said: "Minghuan, the day after tomorrow is my birthday. I want to invite you and Shang Chi to my house for a birthday party. Would you like to come?"

After the words fell, the three of them could clearly see that the corners of Shen Minghuan's smiling mouth froze for a moment.

The fiery red little fox made his skin look as white as jade. The mask obscured his expression, and when he didn't smile, he had a kind of divine compassion and alienation.

This was the first time that Mo Sinian and the others saw this man with such an abnormal expression.

Shen Minghuan was silent for a moment, sighed almost inaudibly, and said softly: "Thank you, but I have something to do that day, so I won't go."

"Why?" Mo Sinian naturally refused to believe such a perfunctory excuse, and he said sincerely: "Minghuan, we had some misunderstandings before, but this time I really want to invite you."

Yan Ji also nodded repeatedly and advised: "Go, go, Sinian's father Commander Mo will also come to his birthday party, and there is also Lieutenant Mo Hexuan of the Qinglong Corps. Don't you want to meet them?"

These two can be said to be the idols of all military academy students.

Yan Ji winked at him and said, "Commander Mo feels sorry for Si Nian. I'll ask Si Nian to recommend you when the time comes."

Mosnian pursed his lips and smiled, without retorting.

Shen Minghuan seemed a little distracted.

Although his expression is hidden behind the mask, it makes people feel that he is not happy at the moment. But if it is said to be sadness and worry, it is not quite like it. It is an indescribable emotion that makes the young man in front of him feel a little more desolate.

They couldn't understand Mosnian.

"Ah, Ming Huan is here, come quickly!" A scream of surprise cut through the weird atmosphere, and many students magically appeared on both sides of the path.

As if in just a blink of an eye, a large number of people gathered in front of them, their eyes glowing green.

"Ming Huan——"

Yan Ji was startled when he saw the crowd rushing towards him. He quickly took Mosnian and Lu Zhiyi one by one and fled the center. Before leaving, he did not forget to turn around and shout: "Ming Huan, it's settled, you must come." , we will pick you up from your dormitory the day after tomorrow."

Yan Ji was very proud and showed off to the two of them in a low voice: "Look, what I call this is to kill first and then show off, to seize the enemy first, to strike first and gain the upper hand! When the time comes, we will go directly to their dormitory to block people."

Shen Minghuan was also very proud.

He enjoyed the care and love of the students from the First Army around him, and thought to himself that this was not what he wanted to do, he was forced to do so.
