690 Handsome man

"Ambition?" Wang Zheng was stunned for a moment. He laughed and replied," the truth was I did not think much about it. I only like being a mech warrior and believe it would continue to be so."

"Haha, so it was to just become a mech warrior. To make it clearer, it was to continue doing one simple thing. It seemed that you have already understood the truth."

"Cough cough. Old Zhuo, it is a little hard for me to get used to you complimenting me in such a way."

Li Yizhuo smiled. "However, if there would be a day when you realised what you had been insisting on was destroying what you believed in, would you still be able to continue insisting on it?"

Wang Zheng was feeling a little lost and kept silent. "Old Zhuo, what you have just said was a little bit complicated and I didn't really understand it. Nonetheless, I'm a simple man and just want to do what I wish to do. As long as I'm happy, I will be fine."

Li Yizhuo looked at Wang Zheng's smile and inevitably felt a little emotional. There were many people in the past who were just like him. However, life wasn't an ideal world. The world of a warrior was simple and that was to follow orders. In fact, that would be the most blissful moment as everything could be obtained through hard work. However, there would always be the day when everything would change. He had wanted to continue talking but did not after giving it some thought. It wasn't time. If there was a day this kid had reached that stage, he would understand it himself.

"Old Zhuo, what are your ambitions?"

"Me?" Old Zhuo smiled. "It was the same as you in the past. Since we are on this topic, I was way more handsome than you when I was younger! I was what others would call suave. Wherever I went, I was the leader. My ambition was to become the most famous and handsome general."

Wang Zheng shook his head helplessly. "Whether or not one becomes famous isn't important. The way of the king is to be able to always do what one wishes to."

"Hehe. You were able to understand this concept just a little earlier than me. In your heart, would the Earth be more important or was the Solar System? Alternatively, would the Milky Way Alliance be more important to you?" asked Li Yizhuo.

No one had asked him this question before and Wang Zheng was taken aback by the question.

"It would likely be dependent on the situation. Firstly, I'm a human. Following that, I'm a member of the Earth Federation." said Wang Zheng as he pondered for a while.

Li Yizhuo nodded. "You were able to differentiate it rather clearly. However, you have to remember that no matter what, this is just symbolism. You are only one person and don't have to shoulder much. Our shoulders are too narrow and can't take on so much. Being the hero would definitely be more disadvantageous than just being the good man."

Wang Zheng laughed heartily. Deep inside him, Wang Zheng was still willing to be the hero. "Old Zhuo, we are not afraid of dying. It wasn't just me but some of my close friends too. Since we have decided to become soldiers, we are already prepared. Living is about having a gutsy and dynamic life!"

Wang Zheng did not feel that Old Zhuo was afraid of death. On the contrary, Wang Zheng respected Old Zhuo. Only a real soldier could disregard death in a desperate attempt to find a path to survive. In this d*mn place, dying would be much easier than living on. Moreover, Old Zhuo had been conducting research on the Zergs all along.

"A gutsy and dynamic..." Old Zhuo's eyes seemed to be covered by the smoke.

"Oh damn, Yizhuo. You aren't being kind to us. How could you just become the captain of the ship?"

"This kid has created new history in the Milky Way Galaxy Military Academy by becoming the youngest captain of a spaceship! F*ck. I am still a vice captain even now. It would be hard to continue living on like this!"

"I could just accept that you were born handsome. I could accept that you managed to court the most beautiful women in the College. I could also accept that you have become the captain of the ship. But why did you make us your underlings now. I'm not doing it!"

"Xiao Shunzi, you should just resign yourself to your fate. Our lives from now on would likely be under his oppression. However Yizhuo was still someone who deserves our trust. Since he had snatched the title of the number 1 captain, we could still be the strongest fleet in history!"

"Brothers, let's have a toast for the most handsome captain!"

"Old Zhuo, I am done with the basics. I'll be taking a walk around." Wang Zheng's stamina and vitality were much better than Old Zhuo. Moreover, he had the help of the Primordial Regression Technique.

"Be careful and don't walk too far away. If you were to die, I would be escaping by myself."

"D*mn, don't curse me! I have always been lucky."

The Golden Wheel had been restored. Wang Zheng was going to test out the performance to prevent problems from popping up at the most crucial moment.

The mech had been equipped with silencers by Old Zhuo and the effects were great. The Zerg did not hold much interest with the rubbish dump. As long as one did not go directly to them, they would usually not care about it. Hearing from Old Zhuo, there were only 3 large scale mobilisations over the years.

Wang Zheng knew that Old Zhuo was a little emotional. After all, he was getting old and it was natural for him to reminisce a little more when he could see the opportunity to escape soon. Wang Zheng felt that this was also a great opportunity. Technology had advanced rapidly over the past decade. Although Old Zhuo's body was exhausted, he would definitely be able to recover with appropriate conditioning. Even if he couldn't recover completely, he could at least get prosthetic legs and would be able to move like a normal person. He could even find his family.

Looking at the sky, Wang Zheng felt that although this was a fresh environment, he would not be able to take it if he had to stay here for extended period of time.

Since he was here, Wang Zheng did not intend to return empty-handed. He wanted to understand the situation in this place and obtain first hand information. He opened up the map that Old Zhuo had sent him. If the human army was to ever kill their way here, this map would be a priceless treasure.

The Zerg probably didn't expect such a situation to occur. These devouring Zerg weren't of the highest level. They were able to create a space with devouring qualities within their body and could disregard the type of matter and began digesting them. Under normal circumstances, objects that were devoured would not be able to resist. However there would be exceptions in rare occasions and this type of Zerg could only throw such things out. The space they threw the stuff out was random but this rubbish dump of the Zerg was one of the locations.

At the thought of this, Wang Zheng also felt that if he could capture some of these Zerg alive and brought them back for research. He might really be able to find the coordinates of this place.

On the battlefield of the Elite Academy, the other 39 warriors still had stellar performances. It was a fact that the unlucky and strange case of Wang Zheng had occurred. Under normal circumstances, they would be able to survive at the edge of the Abyss with their level of strength. Jiang Feng wouldn't have conducted such trials if they weren't able to do so.

Half a month had passed but there was still no news of Wang Zheng. Moreover there wasn't any reaction from the positioning device placed in the mech. Basically, Wang Zheng could be deemed to have no hopes of surviving.

This news wasn't secret to those who were participating in the trial. However, it was still not announced by the school. Only some of the news had leaked out through smaller channels that there seemed to be someone who was taking the trial that had disappeared. This didn't cause a commotion among the students. As the school they were in was military in nature and were even Elite Academy, the person only had himself to blame for not training his skills well.

In fact, Jiang Feng had long wanted to give up but he couldn't withstand the torment of Butcher. It wasn't just Butcher. Even Gail had caused a great commotion over it by giving Jiang Feng a scolding directly in his face. Some of the other Professors also expressed their concerns. It was then that Jiang Feng knew that this kid had greater potential in the scientific world than being a soldier. He felt that he had really been duped this time. Jiang Feng wasn't very happy about this in his heart. After all, once Wang Zheng had decided to become a soldier, he had to have the resolve to die. If he didn't have it, he wouldn't be able to achieve anything. Gail and the rest could only panic without being able to do much. To sum it up, they wanted to see him whether he was dead or alive.

Jiang Feng and related workers didn't know whether to cry or laugh. These old men were hilarious to talk about seeing the corpse with the Zerg.

However Gail and the rest seemed to be sure that Wang Zheng did not die. This kid looked like he was lucky and didn't have the looks of someone who would die early... what was this about? The authoritative figures in the scientific world would actually believe in this?

From another perspective, they were indeed concerned about Wang Zheng and even Jiang Feng had to show them respect. He still sent a patrol unit to conduct searches around the area of the disappearance. At the same time, he had informed the front line units. He could only try his best and do what he could.

In this sort of d*mned place, even if he could survive by sheer luck, living on would also be a huge problem on its own.

Student Wang who was deemed as hopeless by Jiang Feng was well-nourished at this moment. He was observing the surroundings constantly with Old Zhuo through a telescope.

Did you see that? It was just like those things. It was a pity that the things that were thrown down weren't from our place." said Old Zhuo.

There were several large size Zerg in the sky and they looked just like balloons. Below them were long tentacle like things. Random and messy things would be thrown off from the sky.

"What you meant was for us to rush up and dive through their mouth?" asked Wang Zheng. He wasn't silly and obviously wanted to return alive.

Old Zhuo nodded his head. "However, we would likely still need a chance moment and we won't be successful if we miss it. What would follow would be based on luck. "

Looking at the transport Zerg in the sky, Li Yizhuo's gaze had started to shimmer with light. It was as though the wrinkles of his face had relaxed a little.
