Chapter 567 - 172: An Unexpected Surprise and a New Commission

"I’m not a military professor, nor like a contestant, authorized to stay in the rear. Aren’t you afraid something unexpected might happen during acupuncture?"

The secretary was choked, last time the Insect Mother was because it was new and there wasn’t enough time to arrange manpower.

The discovery of Greed could be anticipated, soldiers like the Lieutenant could handle it.

The Insect Mother hiding in the human body, even if someone told him before, he would find it hard to believe. Yet, the more outrageous it was, the more it happened.

No wonder Su Xiaocai complained.

"The single combat competition can start soon, the venue is ready. Is Professor Su interested in being a judge?"

"No, you go ahead and do it." The broadcast rights aren’t in the hands of the New World, of course, the New World can watch, but only through the broadcast.

The software is produced by an obscure company.

The live broadcasting equipment uses her product, but the product patent has already been licensed out.

The subsequent single combat competition isn’t much related to her.

"Give me a few tickets, I might have time to check it out then."

The single combat competition will take place on the Mechanical Planet.

Initial scouting shows there are no mother bodies or warriors stationed there, the competition is about who kills more Insect Men, with different scores for each type.

Before, it was a school joint effort, common people felt that Mecha Masters were far from them.

Now, people from all ten stars are participating, ten thousand, from different planets, different star systems, many from their surroundings, of course, all are paying attention.

For those who don’t understand the process of killing Insect Men, an uncensored direct confrontation with a terrifying competition is undoubtedly the only legal way to glimpse the mysterious veil of Insect Men.

But watching the competition live is risky, tickets aren’t selling.

The secretary did not hesitate to give Su Xiaocai dozens of tickets, the competition will continue until the Insect Men on the Mechanical Planet disappear, as long as she is willing, she can watch from the spaceship near the Mechanical Planet.

Su Xiaocai held onto the tickets, which are a kind of card with identification codes.

Belonging to VIP tickets, allowing access to the viewing ship anytime.

The live scene is sure not to be as exciting as watching inside the New World, and this broadcast lacks the driver’s perspective, it all depends on whether the broadcast equipment can hold up.

The competition takes place in three days, Su Xiaocai isn’t clear about the rules, she’ll have to find out then.

The single combat competition, yet allows collective action, there’s a lot of room for maneuver.

"So Admiral Bai only has three days on the Blue Star?"

"The officer’s other schedules are inconvenient to disclose."

Admiral Bai also asked Su Xiaocai, "Can’t it be faster?"

Su Xiaocai, "You want your body to rapidly deteriorate, potential exhausted, there might be a way."

Acupuncture is said to be a shortcut, but it’s merely a regulation, just potential tapping.

Speeding up does not mean an instant breakthrough.

"I’ll try to upgrade you within two months, if not accomplished, I’ll go with you to the frontline."

Receiving assurance, Colonel Yuan and the secretary felt brightened up, "Thank you, we’ll rely on you."

Admiral Bai put on his clothes, adjusted his collar, closed his eyes and felt Qi Sensing, the barrier still existed, not disappearing that quickly.

Su Xiaocai said it needs some time, not allowing acceleration, he’s helpless in urgency.

"Thanks, although not upgraded yet, I can feel my body functions improving. Admiral Bai really likes using acupuncture followed by foot baths to fall asleep, unlike sleep medication that causes body fatigue."

Taking sleep aids is worse than not sleeping, he doesn’t like the feeling of medication controlling his body.

"I’ll come again tomorrow night." Sleeping well becomes addictive, especially for someone like him who is under long-term high tension, with high vigilance, it’s hard to enter deep sleep.

Su Xiaocai puts her hands in her pockets, "Alright, come earlier tomorrow."

Unknowingly, it’s already midnight, another day has passed, Su Xiaocai still can’t sleep.

Since coming to Blue Star, seemingly free, yet there’s more chasing her behind, it’s impossible to ignore everything.

When people left, she walked out the door, looked up at the starry sky in the field, a meteor streaked across.

Su Xiaocai squinted, "Xiao Wanzi, doesn’t that meteor look familiar?"

Xiao Wanzi wasn’t looking at the sky, it saw the leopard cat, the little thing is a night owl, likes roaming around the house.

"Isn’t a meteor just a meteorite?"

Su Xiaocai, "It could also be a Mecha or spaceship!"

Xiao Wanzi scratched its head, suddenly a furry object jumped onto its head, "Ah Bao, you’re jumping on my head again, get down, annoying~"

The leopard cat doesn’t care, squats there, its soft texture, very suitable as a cushion.

It’s not as afraid of Su Xiaocai anymore, in all these days, Su Xiaocai never actively approached it or petted it, nor chased it.
