Chapter 287: Chapter 285: Grow Up Slowly Chapter 287: Chapter 285: Grow Up Slowly Sally hurried to follow.
“Wait a mont, Commander.”
The figure in front stopped, turned around, and looked at Sally.
At that glance, Sally was stunned… Zulu?
[Host, his na is Luky Vijay, not Zulu Deira. He just looks 97% similar.]
[…With such a high degree of similarity, saying it’s one person is also possible.] Of course, Sally knew it wasn’t Zulu, but seeing the long-lost face still sent waves of emotion through her heart, “Sorry, I mistook you for soone else.”
Having said that, she turned around to leave.
To her surprise, the other party took the initiative to speak, “I am indeed from the command program, representing the Free Star Independent Military District in the competition, responsible for the work of a commander. Who are you?”
At those words, Sally stopped in her tracks, almost forgetting that she had chased after him to collaborate, and turned back to say, “Sally Millet. I applied for the cha Soldier position at Paxter Military Academy, just filling in the ranks.”
“Heh, too, Luky Vijay. Not many girls choose the cha program.”
“Not many, but not none,” Sally chuckled involuntarily, unable to help but reveal a bright smile to him.
Luky was montarily taken aback, “…I’m heading to Belman Star now. Do you want to co along?”
Belman Star was the first venue for the Yago Cup competition, a three-tier planet.
Sally nodded her head, “I don’t know the way, so that works out perfectly.”
Luky looked at the school emblem on her uniform and curiously asked, “Polinia Military Academy, where is that?”
“Sebalinye Star, a six-star level planet. What military academy are you from?”
“Not far from here.”
“Oh.”
…
Belman Star was a planet with highly developed vegetation.
It had plenty of water, frequent rain, extre heat, and lush plant growth. Moreover, there were a lot of poisonous insects.
Here, one must take precautions against poisonous insects, or else, a mont of carelessness could lead to a fatal bite.
Sally followed Luky to the military academy campus of the Free Star Independent Military District.
Five dormitory buildings, covered in green vines, with doors but no visible windows…
Sally walked to one of the dorm buildings, in front of the mottled, decaying door, hesitant to push it for fear of it crumbling apart.
The System Map showed that not a single person was living here.
“Luky, we haven’t gone to the wrong place, have we?”
They had passed by the campus of the Imperial Military District, which was a scaled-down version of the academy, with many students undergoing cha training.
“In every edition of the Free Star Independent Military District, the emphasis is on participation, otherwise they wouldn’t hire students from other schools to compete. In every Yago Cup, many people bet on which military academy will win, and no one ever bets on the Independent Military District.”
Luky pushed open the door, and one of them broke… After picking up the pieces and stacking them in the corner of the door, he entered the dormitory building that was as dim as night even in broad daylight.
Sally followed him in, looking up and down the building full of cobwebs, “This is a bit too makeshift, where are the others?”
“During the competition, the military district covers all expenses for the competing students, as long as it doesn’t exceed a thousand Star Coins. Not far from here, about three kiloters away, there is a six-star hotel.”
“A thousand Star Coins can get you a room in a six-star hotel?”
“It’s enough. It’s six-star, not nine-star.”
[Host, the hotel star rating system goes up to twelve levels. A six-star is roughly equivalent to your Wanfang Inn.]
[That’s pretty average.]
“Shall we go too?” Sally said to Luky.
Luky replied, “We are hired externally; the campus doesn’t cover us.”
“…No wonder they give a thousand Star Coins a day.”
“So just want to participate in the competition and don’t care about Star Coins.”
“I’m poor, so I might as well stay in the haunted house.”
Sally chose a room close to the window, pushed it open, and cleared the vines outside.
Luky then took the room next to hers.
Commanders, cha Masters, and cha Soldiers, the greatest physique naturally belongs to the Soldiers, with Masters following, and Commanders last.
Commanders control the battlefield with their spiritual power; the higher the spiritual power, the weaker the physical constitution tends to be.
Sally noted that Luky’s physical condition was still quite decent, with streamlined muscle lines and explosive power hidden within, more resembling a Soldier than a Commander.
“Commander, what are we eating for dinner tonight?” Sally picked at a piece of peeling wall paint and threw it towards the neighboring window.
“I brought so dry food; let’s make do for tonight, and we’ll buy so food from the town tomorrow,” Luky replied.
“There’s a town here?”
“Yes, about four kiloters away.”
“Let’s go together.”
“Fine. What about your cha? Why do I never see you practice?”
“I don’t have one. Doesn’t the military district issue us a set of chas?” Indeed, she had a Blue Crystal T7 in her space, but it was broken. She knew what was wrong with it, yet when she’d inquired, even a single cha screw cost thousands of Star Coins, so she couldn’t afford to fix it now.
“You need to apply in advance, and the chas issued by the school might not suit you.”
“Unsuited is still better than none.”
“Aren’t you a cha Soldier? Why don’t you have a cha?”
“Didn’t I tell you, I’m just here to make up the numbers.”
“…” You don’t have to be that ill-equipped. “I’m going to continue tidying up; I’ll call you when it’s ti to eat.”
“Okay.”
Sally returned to her room.
Her consciousness imdiately entered the System Space.
Little Shisi and Little Shiwu had woken up and were restlessly running and jumping around in the space.
Sally quickly moved them out of the space.
Once held by Sally, the two little ones quieted down.
Sally took out a crib and placed them inside.
Then using the Spiritual Spring liquid, she mixed a special milk powder for God Rank juvenile creatures for the two of them.
The little ones drank it while cheerfully wagging their fluffy tails, looking quite happy.
Sally stroked their heads, “Eat well and then continue sleeping. Your dad wouldn’t want you growing up without him seeing.”
Qing Linghuan had said that his mory wouldn’t be affected by the river of ti, but he would fall into a deep sleep until the mont of his sleep arrived, then he would wake up.
She really wished she could have such good sleep, to take a long nap, wake up after ten thousand years had passed, and then she could take the children and go find them.
She didn’t know how to get through these ten thousand years of wandering…
Xiaoba also woke up; the little golden dragon on its eggshell swam back and forth, rry and oblivious to the world having turned upside down, nearly costing them their lives.
Sally held Xiaoba close, showering him with kisses, “My precious son, let’s grow up slowly.”
Before, she had been eager for him to hatch, but now she hoped he would take longer. Zi Qi probably also wished for the children to grow up with his companionship.
“Host, you can place your offspring into a Pseudo-Gestation State.”
“Pseudo-Gestation?”
“Right now, they’re just temporarily sleeping, which halts their developnt, but they’ll wake up sooner or later. If you induce Pseudo-Gestation, it will be like Xiaoba, with a gestation shell wrapped around them. They will return to a state of being nurtured. Their talents will continue to grow slowly, and their bodies will not get bigger. But ten thousand years is enough for their talents to evolve once or even multiple tis.”
