Chapter 773 Extra: Enrollment

Time flies like an arrow; the days dart by like a shuttle.

With the occurrence of both internal and external events over the years, the empire has been gradually changing in every aspect. For the great war four years ago, the military academy's service system was temporarily altered, but following the universe-shaking battle that occurred afterward, this regulation was repealed two years ago.

Now, all military academy students are once again following the old rule of serving in their third year.

As Lowell, a third-year student, watched his classmates excitedly discussing which legion they would serve in after class, he eagerly wanted to join their conversation.

However, everyone there was so engrossed in their chat that he couldn't successfully break in despite his jumping around.

Just as he was feeling a bit dejected and planning to complain to his friend online, he turned around and saw a male student with an unfamiliar face sitting in the corner of the classroom.

He didn't quite have a memory of this person. How come he remembered that no one was there originally?

"Hey, you look unfamiliar. Are you in our class?"

Lowell, who couldn't stop his mouth for a moment, decided to strike up a conversation with the unfamiliar student. Judging by the other person's appearance, he wasn't good with words, so he would have plenty to say!

"Yes, I was unwell previously and recuperating at home."

The man's voice was deep and captivating, his curly long hair draped lazily behind him. Seeing that he was looking down at a book and didn't intend to look up, Lowell could understand why he said the other person looked unfamiliar.

He couldn't see the person's face at all; wasn't that the definition of unfamiliar?

"I'm called Lowell, what about you?"

"Mu Chen."

"Eh? Your name sounds familiar."

Mu Chen paused in turning the page. He hadn't really wanted to say his name, but the enthusiasm of the person who had come over always gave Mu Chen a mistaken feeling that he had seen a copy of Lu Xiaoyao.

That guy who often acted as a light bulb for him and Mingmei and was completely oblivious.

Even his nerves seemed as thick as Lu Xiaoyao's.

He didn't mean to be narcissistic, but Mu Chen also knew that the people who participated in that battle back then were extremely famous in their respective military academies.

This was also the reason why, if Mingmei hadn't planned to enter the military after graduation, Cechill even wanted her to stay at the school, but she politely declined.

"By the way, which legion are you planning to apply to serve in?"

Sure enough, as soon as they exchanged names, this guy showed his true colors.

"I..."

"I see that you often recuperate at home, so you probably don't know the current situation. Listen to me, I know a lot! Let me explain in detail..."

Mu Chen hadn't finished speaking when the other person interrupted him.

"First, let's talk about the First and Second Legions. They are the top-notch legions protecting our Central Star, whether in terms of scale, weapons and equipment, or financial subsidies... they are all like this."

As he spoke, Mu Chen slightly raised his eyes and saw the thumbs up in front of him.

"But they are not free, and their lives are quite boring."

Lowell, as a social butterfly, had many connections, and previous graduates were happy to share their experiences during their service.

"The Third Legion is where many geniuses have emerged, such as the Lu Old Marshal's family, the deceased Lu Colonel, and that... uh, the living Lu Colonel, they are all very powerful! Not to mention that Lu Colonel participated in the great battle against the Zerg back then, her strength is super strong, okay?

However, what I admire most about her is her terrifying willpower. For the sake of revenge, she dared to try that kind of experiment on her body! Although she later had surgery and used her real body, I still think she was super handsome when she was a man!"

Speaking of Lu Gui, now she should be called Lu Xuan, Mu Chen remembered that Ruan Xun had told him about her online when his body was being reshaped.

In fact, there was nothing wrong with Lu Gui's body. The material of that body was almost the same as that of Liu Liu's human body, but because of Lu Gui's special nature, the Queen Zerg publicly revealed it.

In order not to burden the research institute and the main brain, and also to repay the matter of allowing Lu Gui to be reborn, Lu Old Marshal and Lu Gui later took the initiative to ask to exchange their bodies back, and used Lu Xiaoyao's somatic cells to make a new body for Lu Gui.

They even said to the outside world that there was something wrong with Lu Gui's body, and she only used it reluctantly for a few years in order to avenge her father.

When Lu Gui graduated, she reappeared in front of everyone as Lu Xuan.

Because Lu Xuan's body was made and recovered much faster than Mu Chen's, Mu Chen's body was surrounded and ridiculed by Ruan Xun, Yan Hui, and Liu Liu at that time.

Finally, they said that Mu Chen himself had a problem.

Mu Chen: ...

"The Fourth and Fifth Legions also participated in the battle back then, but... there are not many famous people." Lowell shook his head. These days, many young people still have hero worship.

Especially in recent years, the Zerg war hasn't been over for long, and the performance of the legions that participated in the last war directly affects their choices.

"But I still want to go to the Sixth Legion. That's where real men should go!" Speaking of the Sixth Legion, Mu Chen didn't even have to look up to feel the excitement of the person next to him.

"However, the quota given by the Sixth Legion every year is too small. I heard from the seniors that signing up for the Sixth Legion is purely based on luck. I don't know if my speed will be fast enough when I officially fill out the form tomorrow."

He complained in a low voice, and then began to "popularize" with Mu Chen why the Sixth Legion was popular, and what kind of passionate and moving battle the Sixth Legion had in the terrifying battle back then.

"However, the Sixth Legion was also terribly tricked at the time, but I really want to go..." Lowell didn't dare to express too much opinion on this matter, but Mu Chen slowly closed his book and said: "Actually, if you think about it from another perspective, the living conditions of the Sixth Legion... are not that good. In the past few years, the war has been peaceful. If there is no war, life there is not as colorful as you think."

"Hey, you are so dark in your heart. I have asked every senior who has entered the Sixth Legion, and they all said that life there is really super good, the training may be a little hard, but those are what they should be! And the food is good and the accommodation is good."

Mu Chen:?

Eat, Mu Chen didn't dare to say whether the Sixth Legion was good or bad, after all, different people have different tastes, but live—he has too much experience.

Thinking of the "enthusiastic replies" from those so-called seniors, Mu Chen couldn't help but raise his head and look at the other party with a look of looking at an idiot.

"I will still rush to apply for the Sixth Legion tomorrow, if not, I will apply for the Third Legion!"

Ignoring Mu Chen's eyes, Lowell said to himself, and after he finished speaking, he sighed and said: "Actually, the legions of Hua Yan Star are also good, but unfortunately they don't recruit military academy students for service in recent years, they only recruit graduates... but there is General Mei Qiu there~"

After saying his thoughts in one breath, he saw that the classmate who had been listening to him just now was looking up at him.

"Oh my god!!!"

When he saw Mu Chen's face clearly, Lowell was so frightened that he screamed instantly. Fortunately, because class was over just now, the people in the classroom had already left.

Mu Chen stood up, Lowell took a few steps back, and before Mu Chen could speak, he covered his mouth and exclaimed: "Damn! Why do you look like that... Oh! Your names are the same too! My God, why?"

"Well—is there a possibility that I am the one you are talking about?"

Mu Chen glanced at the information on the optical brain, and the corner of his mouth raised slightly. At this time, he didn't have time to tease the kid.

"How is that possible? That senior is in the same year as me~ You are joking..." As he said, the other party actually poked his face before Mu Chen could react.

Mu Chen:??

"Brother, you didn't go home for plastic surgery some time ago, so you haven't come, that's why I haven't seen you, right?"

Mu Chen:!!

He never expected that one day he would see a person whose brain circuit and brain hole were comparable to Lu Xiaoyao!

"A Chen~"

At this time, a clear female voice came from the classroom door, Mu Chen's eyes lit up and he looked up, today's Mingmei was dressed very much as a royal sister.

Like a blooming and beautiful red rose.

Is this the so-called surprise she said?

Ignoring the dumbfounded eyes of others, Mu Chen walked directly towards Mingmei, looking at the bright smile on her face, Mu Chen reached out and held her soft hand and said, "Is work going well today?"

"Yeah~ It's pretty good. I just don't know if anyone will bully you when you come back to class~" Mingmei said meaningfully, her eyes already looking at Lowell, whose chin was about to drop to the ground just now.

"No." Mu Chen shook his head, chuckled lightly, and pulled Mingmei away, then turned around and whispered, "But, I experienced the feeling you had when you first went to school."

"What feeling?"

"What do you think?"
