Ye Zisu looked carefully at Wang Zheng and smiled. “It’s great that you are okay.”
Wang Zheng smiled. “I have worried you guys.”
The two of them exchanged glances. Actually they knew what they each wanted to say. Ye Zisu knew that Wang Zheng had already guessed that the reason Aina was called away was most likely not a good one.
She represented Aslan’s image and she suddenly created such a “scandal”…
Such a big thing happened yet there was nothing from the outside world. Obviously the royal family was involved.
Outside the door, Angela was helpless. She felt a little pity but she had to report this. This matter was too big. The departments related to the royal family had already handled the difficult matters these few years as an emergency. All the news had been blocked and suppressed. All the generals of various countries had also received a notification. Of course, this type of things would not be said clearly, as long as the meaning was conveyed.
This news would not be passed out. No one was willing to offend Aslan. Also, even if this piece of news was leaked, no one would believe it.
Of course on the surface, it was like nothing had happened.
The final battle between the Solar System Team and the Arbiter Republic Team would proceed as scheduled, but compared to the semi-final, this was the most boring finals in history. The Arbiter team won the championship for this round’s IG, 4 to 1.
Olivios did not participate. Lear was up for the battle and he was the only one who won. Arbiter did not deal too heavy a blow this time. Suddenly, this battle-hungry team was like in a friendly school competition.
Obviously, even the proud Arbiters were conquered by Wang Zheng’s battle. Under the circumstance where Wang Zheng was not fighting, they had no killing intent at all.
People like Lie Guang and Zhang Runan all got the chance to fight. Even though they were defeated but they had the opportunity to come into contact with the highest level. This was invaluable.
In the end, the championship for this round’s IG was won by the Arbiter Republic team. Olivios won the best team leader and was at the same time the MVP for IG.
But everyone knew that the strongest person for this round’s IG was a person called Wang Zheng. He was the undisputable king!
IG had ended, no matter whether they earned something or was disappointed, the journey had come to an end. The various representative teams returned to their countries.
Wang Zheng sent Aina a message but the message failed to send. This meant that he was blocked. Wang Zheng understood what had happened.
He did not get the championship in the end but this was not the main point. No matter what happened, he had no regrets to all these. All he hoped for was that Aina would be happy.
The Solar System Federation team was also returning to their country, but they split up. This round’s team members had gained glory for the Solar System Federation, especially Wang Zheng. Hence the military had decided to give them in advance citizenship as a reward. There was a 2 year practicum period where each member would be assigned to a region to carry out international and local missions. Wang Zheng was sent to a place called Titatitan Star.
There was no stopping. It had to be carried out immediately.
This military order came very suddenly and very urgently. A Federation Lieutenant came direct to them to announce the orders and used armed transport plane to send Wang Zheng directly to the Space port.
In the transport plane, Wang Zheng looked at the Federation Lieutenant who sat beside him. He was expressionless.
Wang Zheng tried to be friendly and get some information. This military order for a mission that required moving was too sudden. There was not even time for him to contact the Ares College to notify them of the situation..
“I’m only responsible for conveying the military order.”
The lieutenant was meticulous, serious like a wood sculpture.
Being in the military, it was their natural duty to carry out orders. Wang Zheng also had nothing to say.
Entering the space port, the transportation plane of the Solar System Federation was already prepared to leave. Once the procedures for leaving the port was completed, the flight pathway to leaving the port had also cleared.
He did not see the 3 generals, Meng Ao, Lie Wuqing and Drachmach. It was a direct message from the military. Wang Zheng also felt that this was abnormal but he was helpless. Orders had to be followed. Anyway, he had no luggage. He only managed to give Tyrant Su and Zisu a heads-up. He heard that after this military posting, everyone would receive official military ranks.
It was the same for Lear and the others, not only Wang Zheng. Everyone had their own path to take. They all had to train their ability to be independent.
Wang Zheng walked into the spaceship and was stunned. In the huge cabin, there was no one at all. Was he early?
Hong…
The spaceship trembled slightly and left the docking pliers. Obviously, Wang Zheng was the only passenger in this space ship.
Du… Wang Zheng’s Skylink received the order from the Federation Army again. Destination: Titatitan Star.
Mission: To fill in the position of Special Military Officer in the Solar System Federation Base Camp at Titatitan Star. Term of office was 2 years and details of the mission were to be confirmed.
Wang Zheng smiled bitterly. Even though he had guessed what happened, but Titatitan Star? Where the hell was that place?
Special Military Officer? It sounded impressive but the term of office was 2 years?
He was still a student okay? Even though in the military school, those really elite students were all filling positions in the army before they graduated. But they were at least seniors.
Wang Zheng was not stupid, in his heart he had guessed what happened. The 2 big killers of love had come for him, time and space.
Recalling how he could not connect with Aina for this period of time, and seeing on the news about her undergoing some sort of ritual in Atlantis… most probably she was not having any good days too.
Holding back a bitter smile, Wang Zheng had totally expected for this reaction. He felt that the Atlantis Royal family were already considered being quite kind, at least they did not kill him.
2 years time?
Actually that was good too.
Aslan Prime Minister’s mansion…
The Prime Minister was dealing with some government affairs. Aina was sent urgently to Atlantis to study the courses that were supposed to officially start only 1 year later. Hence, some matters that were already handed over to Aina were pushed back to the Prime Minister at the last minute. These 2 days, she only slept 3 hours.
Having quickly processed another file, on the government affairs system, there were only 10 matters left.
Heaving a sigh of relief, she finally could relax a little. These matters were originally for Aina to process. They all involved the royal family. These things might not be big but they could not be dealt by others.
The Prime Minister’s hand stretched out and massaged her neck, stiff from sitting too long. Even if she was alone in the room processing these government affairs, she still adhered strictly to her own high expectations of herself. When she sat, she would sit with her back straight. She would never have any signs of a lazy or comfortable slouch.
A guard stood outside the door. He most probably waited for quite some time, except that he did not disturb her while she was busy. This was the person she sent specifically to spy on Wang Zheng.
Waving him in, “Say.”
“The Solar System Federation has just sent him to Titatitan Star. 2 years. The condition was that there would be an addition of a few techniques in this time’s military procurement.”
“Just 2 years?”
She was extremely unsatisfied. This bastard Wang Zheng who dared to reach out to the princess should stay forever in those dark corners. It was best he never came out again. Her original intention was at least 10 years!
The guard lowered his head and opened his mouth. He seemed to have something to add.
Wang Zheng was at the least the hero for the Solar System IG, in an instant he was sent to a place like Titatitan Star.
The Prime Minister looked at him calmly. “Anything else?”
“There’s another power that is following up on Wang Zheng. However, their aim should not conflict with ours. They are willing to maintain a good relation with us and are willing to solve the problem once and for all.”
“Just ignore them. I only want to make sure that he will never appear in front of Aina, that’s enough. As for the others, they are not of our concern.” The Prime Minister smiled coldly. Someone actively initiated good will. It really was the style of the Solar System. It was good this way too.
Outside the door, Lin Huiyin who heard the 2 words “Wang Zheng” blinked her eyes. Her heart pumped loudly. She eavesdropped some of the conversation and she knew what was happening. Wang Zheng was not powerful enough to woo away the pride of Aslan.
Once and for all? This phrase gave Huiyin an unpleasant feeling.
Lin Huiyin ran out quietly. Her movements, the guards were already used to it and did not think of it being weird.
The transportation ship just left the space port. Wang Zheng’s Skylink vibrated. Lin Huiyin’s message: Be careful, someone wants to end you once and for all.
The phrase once and for all was bolded. Obviously this was the original phrase that Huiyin overheard. Wang Zheng was a little stunned. Perhaps they wanted him to die at Titatitan Star?
The speed of the spaceship was still accelerating, and then there was another fierce tremble. The transportation ship had entered Beta-space before the cabin stabilized. Wang Zheng looked at his Skylink, there was no signal at all. This spaceship actually was not equipped with any Beta-space signal exchanging machine! He had a tinge of regret not using Skylink to check up information on Titatitan Star earlier.
The transportation ship’s ultra-speed engine was a little outdated. It made this round’s space travel much longer.
At the beginning, Wang Zheng could still sit quietly in the cabin but when he discovered that it was a smart robot that served him his meals during dinner time, Wang Zheng was starting to feel a little rattled. Could it be that this space ship had no other people at all?
Rushing into the control room, luckily… there were 2 veterans piloting the spaceship. There were other people in this space ship, but it was very obvious, the 2 veterans had no intention of socializing with Wang Zheng. They chased Wang Zheng out of the control room and close the big door of the control room with a loud bang. Wang Zheng was sharp eyed and spotted that there were many resources inside, including a culinary robot.
Recalling that the little girl Hui Yin’s message, Wang Zheng could not describe how he felt.
Other than the control room and the engine room, he explored idly the rest of the spaceship. This spaceship was actually the Sparrowhawk 19. Its beta-space engine used third generation technology. This beta-space travel would take a whole standard years’ time to move from one end of the Milky Way to the other end of the Milky Way!
Newer fourth generation beta-space engine took only 3 months. If spatial displacement theory had a mature product, this timing would be shortened to 28 days. The shortening of travel time would strengthen human’s control of the Milky Way.
And Wang Zheng who theorized the space displacement theory, was ironically bored to tears because of this soon-to-be-eliminated outdated third generation engine.
It was indeed a bitter wait. It was like becoming a hermit. He was in the cabin alone and there was no signal for his Skylink. It was impossible even if he wanted to pass time playing some games on the Skylink.
It was not Wang Zheng’s style to not do anything. Speaking of this, this was the first time Wang Zheng had so much free time and no one to disturb him after gaining the Rubik’s Cube. Even if he took a long holiday, there was still a Tyrant Su to look for him to drink beer and watch the stars.
Now that he was alone, he could quieten his mind. It actually felt a little like when he was inside the world of the Rubik’s Cube. Naturally, Wang Zheng tried to enter the Rubik’s Cube again. This time he succeeded.
