Chapter 75

From childhood to adulthood, perhaps due to the admiration for Wang Zheng's homework-solving skills, Yan Xiaosu always believed that Wang Zheng would be someone who could achieve great things in the future. However, as time passed, reality seemed to become increasingly harsh. The genetic score indeed dealt a significant blow to both of them. Although it didn't lead to their despair, it did stifle their former dreams.

But God is always a good director. When Wang Zheng was at his lowest point, Aina appeared. However, this was just luck. It wasn't until Wang Zheng shone during the military training and the recent competition that Yan Xiaosu felt a mysterious force reviving.

Yet, all of this paled in comparison to the shock of Wang Zheng's true identity. A game was nothing much, but the strength he displayed was crucial.

Perhaps what seemed like a fantasy wasn't a fantasy at all.

Aina left suddenly and calmly. Wang Zheng wasn't too surprised. In fact, he hadn't been sad these past few days; instead, he felt grateful. In this relationship, Aina had given the most and borne the most.

As a man, self-abandonment and self-pity were not Wang Zheng's style. Regardless of whether there was a future, he had to try his best. He couldn't let anyone look down on him or insult Aina's judgment!

Yan Xiaosu's eyes widened to their largest and roundest.

When the ID "Skeleton" appeared, Yan Xiaosu covered his mouth. At this moment, even the usually dim-witted Yan Xiaosu's mind became sharp. He remembered that the first time he asked Wang Zheng to join, he had registered as "Skeleton."

At that time, the stunning back throw seemed like a coincidence, but it turned out that behind every coincidence in this world, there was a necessity.

Wang Zheng smiled slightly, "If you're surprised by such a small thing, how will you handle big things in the future?"

"Big things?" Yan Xiaosu was stunned.

"Some things may have only a one percent chance, or even less, but if you try, you might get a hundred percent result."

Wang Zheng smiled. In fact, he was very strong, and perhaps this world was even stronger, but he was not afraid!

Yan Xiaosu scratched his head, "Hey, boss, can we have a simpler and more straightforward explanation?"

"Originally, such battles were just for fun, but now it seems we can earn our capital. You can talk to CT about it; that's your specialty."

"Damn, why didn't I think of that? What a pig brain!" Yan Xiaosu slapped his head. The moment money was mentioned, his mind started working rapidly.

This was definitely a huge income!

As long as Wang Zheng could keep winning!

It seemed that Aina's departure had indeed stimulated Wang Zheng, but Yan Xiaosu's thoughts were different from Wang Zheng's.

"Only one condition: keep it confidential. I don't want this to affect my life at school."

Wang Zheng said.

Yan Xiaosu made a zipping motion over his mouth, "Don't worry, boss. Your decision is very wise. CT is a big star, and putting him in a military academy might not be a good thing."

There was a considerable amount of opposition within the military academy to such non-professional activities, but generally, they were supported. As one's abilities grew, the higher one went, the greater the impact.

Inside the Skeleton Corps.

The addition of a new member caused a huge stir, especially when it was revealed that the new member was the previous opponent, Dark King Johnson Doma. When everyone learned about Johnson Doma's background, they were filled with respect.

No one had expected Johnson to join. From the Rainbow onwards, it seemed that everyone had an extraordinary story, which brought joy to the members of the Skeleton Corps.

Johnson's first appearance after joining was due to Skeleton's appearance. However, when Skeleton was not around, Johnson was immediately surrounded by countless members, their admiration like an endless river.

Although he was a loser, Johnson had won countless respects. His performance in the battle was outstanding, and he was nearly blind.

Rainbow also appeared. He knew Johnson's situation very well and had specifically investigated it. Johnson was indeed a skilled special forces operative. During that mission, an accident occurred, and he was left with an incurable injury while covering the retreat.

Of course, Rainbow didn't think it was incurable; it was just that the cost was too high. Bureaucracy had never changed. What was important was that, regardless of what he had suffered, Johnson's strong will remained unwavering.

This filled Rainbow, a soldier, with immense respect.

Injustice is the norm in this world. Complaints and cowardice are for the weak.

"Johnson, tell everyone about your battle experience. You were the one who came closest to victory."

Rainbow said.

Someone immediately introduced Rainbow to Johnson.

Johnson smiled. Compared to Johnson, Rainbow was a representative of the new generation.

"After that battle, I thought about it all night, recalling the few possible points where I could have won. If I had seized one of them, I might have won."

Johnson said, and immediately, there was a buzz of discussion. In that battle, Johnson had clearly dominated the field and had a significant advantage.

"But by morning, my mind suddenly cleared. I realized that from the beginning, I had no chance at all."

Johnson laughed.

The Skeleton Corps already had over 50,000 members. It felt more like a chat group than a team, but it didn't matter. Chen Xiu and the others had no specific goals.

Johnson's words left everyone speechless. On the surface, Johnson had dominated the battle, and War God No. 1 was almost defeated by the end. If not for the terrain, it would have been a disaster.

Chen Xiu raised the question, and Johnson smiled, "Rainbow, at this point, you should understand."

This was a matter of perspective. Rainbow nodded, "I can understand, but I can't believe it. I specifically checked your background. In a dark environment, CT can perform at 90% of your capability. I can't believe such a person exists."

Johnson smiled, "Neither can I, which is why I came."

"Rainbow, stop showing off and explain it in a way we can understand!" Yao Ailun shouted.

"Yeah, don't be so deep; we can't understand!"

"What's going on, does this person exist or not?"

Rainbow smiled bitterly, "Adapting to a dark environment requires strict training. I reviewed the battle process and found some puzzling points. At the beginning, War God No. 1's movements were not very smooth, indicating that Skeleton was not very adept at fighting in the dark. It might have been his first time or very rare, but he quickly adapted, suggesting he had undergone training in this area or had a natural talent."

Johnson shook his head, "Even a trained human needs practice to adapt to the dark to that extent. Being blind, my mind is very clear. In the dark, I can perform at 110% of my usual capability. A person with good eyesight might be at a disadvantage in the dark."

More and more people in the corps activity area were drawn into the discussion.

"What's your conclusion?" Chen Xiu asked.

Rainbow smiled bitterly, "We can't draw a conclusion, which is why we are so puzzled. The people who meet the battle conditions are at the top of the world and wouldn't be so bored."

"On Earth, you can count them on one hand. It's impossible," Johnson added.

"No, it won't be the people you mentioned. Remember Xiao Mo's response last time? His way of answering wouldn't be typical of an older person."

Yao Ailun suddenly said. His attention to detail was fierce.

That cold humor was more characteristic of someone younger and with a peculiar personality.

"I agree with this view. In the battle, I found his foundation to be solid, and his adaptability in real combat was top-notch, but his battle experience was limited. It was more like a new player accumulating experience."

Johnson said.

Rainbow suddenly clapped his hands, "I had the same feeling. That's the most terrifying part!"

"His growth method is extreme. War God No. 1 had many flaws and limitations. Some of these can't be overcome by skill alone. He put himself in a desperate situation, which is brave but very difficult."

Johnson had a complex expression.

"Exactly. It's a momentum and a form of self-suggestion. It might be a path to becoming a god, but it might also be..."

Yao Ailun said, "But today, I will keep waiting!"

"Me too!"

"Me too, damn it! I'm just blindly believing, so what?"

"Me too! To hell with Xiaolu!"

"Either live in cowardice or achieve eternal life in battle!"

The bigger the world, the smaller the heart, and the more people yearn for miracles.

Why do humans crave adventure? In the unknown star regions, death is everywhere, yet adventurers keep coming. It's because everyone believes in and yearns for miracles.

In the Brother Internet Cafe, Yan Xiaosu was also watching. He didn't say anything, just kept waving his fists.

"Boss, you should really see this."

Wang Zheng smiled, "Having you here is enough."

Wang Zheng wasn't in a hurry to find an opponent. CT had a large capacity for various targeted training, including shooting, movement, and adaptation to different environments. Wang Zheng hadn't paid much attention to these before. Today, it wasn't really suitable for battle. As Bone Instructor would say, his mind wasn't calm.

Yan Xiaosu had already joined the chat. He found something more interesting than the battle, so he joined in the guessing and imagining with everyone else.

With the appearance of high-end mechs, various highly targeted attachments would accompany them.

For example, the magnetic storm field Wang Zheng had encountered before was quite troublesome, capable of deflecting attacks. This was just one of many. There were also magnetic storm mines, which could amplify the environmental effects, making high-end matches more complex and requiring more tactical coordination.

As experts put it, the beginner zone was simple, brutal, and mindless, while entering the high-end zone required a general's configuration to control the entire situation, understand various weapons, and, most importantly, coordinate tactics.

In single combat, understanding of mechs and weapons was even more critical.

... Wang Zheng didn't think about all this. When he encountered the magnetic storm field last time, he had a strange idea.

The deflection of lasers could be influenced by certain accelerations or force fields, causing the lasers to react in peculiar ways.
