After exhausting myself to death

When the Star Network detects that someone has been "fatally injured" during the exercise, it will send them out of the virtual space as a sign of "death".

This was an overwhelming battle that should have ended with Kanwa's heavy casualties. However, because Shen Minghuan ended so quickly and the cold weapon fighting had just begun, the personnel on both sides had not suffered much loss.

But Dinghe was unable to fight anymore.

Every one of their mechas was snatched away by this group of bandits. The gangsters even started dividing the loot in front of them, and even planned to have a fight to decide who owned the mechas.

I simply didn't take them seriously, damn it!

The First Army has finally figured it out. They are just fooling around when they have a commander. It doesn't matter whoever operates this mecha, they can't help anyway.

Shen Minghuan did not interfere. He blinked innocently and commanded Dinghe: "Classmate, you see you have no mechas, how can you survive the exercise? Why don't you come with us? Our First Army will meet To protect you."

This was the first day of the exercise. Commander Ding He was not willing to end like this, but he still snorted and said firmly: "Ding He didn't surrender his troops. We can lose, but we can't lose our integrity!"

"How can this be surrender?" Shen Minghuan corrected him, "This is called alliance."

"...Why do you want to form an alliance with us?" Commander Ding He looked at the bleak situation on the field and felt that it was unnecessary no matter how much he thought about it. With Shen Minghuan's ability, he could lead the First Army to sweep through the five major military academies.

"Why waste time when you can end it early? Classmate of Dinghe, just tell me if you are willing?" Although it was a question, Shen Minghuan's tone was full of determination, "I haven't cut off your banner yet, it's my sincerity ”

Commander Dinghe was moved, "Then what's in it for us?"

Shen Minghuan said seriously, "Although I can't help you get first place, I'm still sure of second place."

Commander Dinghe was even more excited, "Seriously?"

It doesn't matter where you are, the main thing is to win against the Supreme Army.

"Of course." Shen Minghuan was very sure.

"So...a deal?" Commander Dinghe couldn't wait.

Shen Minghuan smiled and said, "Happy cooperation."

Shen Minghuan left a small team to guard Dinghe's flag. After whispering to them, he took the others away without any worries and went straight to the next military academy without even taking a break.

With Dinghe's full help, they ended more quickly.

[Is this for a quick victory? The commander always remembered what he said. He was very serious about ending the battle as soon as possible for the deputy commander. 】

[I knew Wuming was young, but I didn’t know he was so young. I know Wuming is very powerful, but even to death I can’t believe he is so powerful! 】

[In the past, regardless of the size of military exercises, the first army and the highest army competed for first place and second place every time. This time it was finally different. 】

[But isn’t this unfair to the Supreme Army? They have worked hard for so long. I admit that they lost to the First Army. What kind of joke was they losing to Dinghe? 】

The Supreme Army also has supporters, and many people who like and even admire this school can't help but start complaining about it.

But the debate didn't last long.

They watched helplessly as Shen Minghuan said the same words to the commander of the next military school——

"Classmates, do you want to form an alliance?"

Shen Ming laughed innocently and shyly: "After the military exercise is over, our First Army will take first place, and you will be second."

The commander of the military academy was indeed very moved and made the immediate decision to lead everyone to follow Shen Minghuan's footsteps.

Netizens: [……]

They looked at the high-spirited conductor Ding He on the other side, and felt that the originally heroic temperament suddenly became honest, and the eyes that were originally relatively intelligent were now filled with clear stupidity.

Netizens who just complained about the supreme military are now hating that iron cannot become steel:

[Stop chatting, go and listen next to Commander Shen and hear how he sold you! 】

[But I’m so anxious, smile, smile, what’s so funny? 】

In just half a day, Shen Minghuan followed the same pattern and took away the four military academies neatly, leaving behind a small team from each.

Netizens just watched Shen Minghuan draw a piece of cake and four people rushed to eat it. They didn't know if it was because this person was lucky and didn't overturn until the end.

The commander-in-chief of each military academy thought they would be the runner-up.

【I'm convinced. 】

[A good commander is good at deceiving people, oh no, he is good at using tactics. 】

[I'm very curious. After this military exercise is over, will the six major military academies break off diplomatic relations on the spot? 】

[So is anyone betting? Guess which military school is in second place? I vote for the highest military. 】

[Laughing, this is only the first day, the first place has already been determined, I also vote for the Supreme Army. 】

[As a fan of Supreme Army, I can’t say that they can take first place against my will, so I vote for Supreme Army’s second place. 】

Out of respect for another top military academy, Shen Minghuan put the Supreme Military Academy at the end.

But on the way, he learned that the deputy commander's city construction speed was a little slow, so he stopped by and left all the people without mechas to help.

Deputy Commander Chu He's expression was dull when he saw the person: "Commander, you..."

No wonder this person said at the beginning that there was no need to build a city. According to this progress, the exercise ended before the city was built.

Shen Minghuan patted his shoulder comfortingly: "If you persist, you will have the city and victory."

Chu He nodded stiffly.

"So can we not form an alliance?" Shen Minghuan looked at him expectantly.

Chu He: "..."

Does the commander think that I am obsessed with building a city and forming an alliance?

Chu He recalled the conversation between the two and realized that Shen Minghuan might have really misunderstood, and couldn't help but feel a little dumbfounded.

He shouldn't talk too much!

He also wants to follow the commander and expand his territory!

However, they soon felt excited. Although there was little participation experience in this military exercise, it was the first time they had such a complete and shocking victory.

Chu He showed an evil smile and said reservedly: "It doesn't matter."

We have more than 300 mechas. It would be unreasonable to lose.

Shen Minghuan led a large number of people to the city of the Supreme Army. They made rapid progress. More than half of the city had been built, and only the finishing touches were left.

The scene was very spectacular, and netizens watched it with gusto.

The commander-in-chief of the Supreme Army was in disbelief, "Your First Army is in alliance with those four military academies? You are crazy. After we are eliminated, you will be next!"

Commander Dinghe smiled with a mysterious expression.

The Supreme Army was retreating steadily under the fierce offensive. The mortal body had almost no ability to resist under the mecha. The commander-in-chief could only watch the number of his own people on the panel decrease rapidly.

He swore a curse word and shouted loudly: "The First Army's members, let's join forces to deal with them first, and give the first place to you."

Now the four commanders all laughed "hehehe", which made the supreme military commander feel angry. "What are you laughing at? What's so funny?"

Are all these people sick?

He originally thought that even if Shen Minghuan disagreed, the four major military academies would feel a little grudge when they heard this.

Damn it, what did the First Army do to them?

Shen Minghuan eliminated people one by one in a leisurely manner, and soon only the commander of the First Army was left on the field.

He controlled the time very accurately, and the deputy commander just happened to inform him that the city had been built. The students had even gone sightseeing and saved a lot of photos.

Shen Minghuan opened the operation cabin and smiled at the commander-in-chief of the First Army, "It's over."

The Star Network live broadcast gave him a close-up, and everyone watched as he raised his hand and quietly turned on the communication optical brain.

"Goodbye." Shen Minghuan said goodbye politely.

As soon as he finished speaking, the flags in the other four military academy live broadcast rooms, which had been silent for a long time, were all cut off at the same moment.

——It was a small team he had left behind.

[All of the Supreme Army were killed and eliminated. 】

[Dinghe Army, xx Army...the flags have been broken and eliminated. 】

The Star Network paused for a moment, and then continued to broadcast: [The first army is the only surviving force and won the first place in this military exercise; the second and second troops...the others tied for second place. 】

The Star Network's judgment procedures were momentarily disrupted.

[...He was very honest when directing me, and he did everything he said. I thought he was using tactics, but it turned out that he was making his promise very seriously. 】

[I'm in a daze now. Is the military exercise over? This is the first day, right? 】

[Have you ever felt that a great conductor is a great person, but he really looks like a child? I don't know if it's because he has been in the remote Lanxing before and hasn't been exposed to many people and things, so he seems particularly innocent now. 】

[Yes, yes, I also discovered that no matter what people around him say, he takes it seriously, and he can't even hear the jokes. 】

I don't know since when, "Conductor" seems to have become Shen Minghuan's default title. He is not the only one directing this military exercise, but when these two words are mentioned, the first thing everyone thinks of is the child who is still a little childish.

[I feel bad when I think about it. It must be very difficult for someone to grow up so well under such conditions. It must be very difficult to command. 】

【Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo......

[With an S-level talent, if he were born on a first-class star, he would definitely be his parents’ treasure. He would grow up from a small star, with fine clothes and fine food, and whatever he had, the alliance would give him the best resources. Such a good young man should not have to suffer such hardships. He deserves the best treatment in the world. 】

[The conductor was still very kind. He mistakenly thought that the deputy commander was not feeling well and was unwilling to force him to give up this opportunity, so he could only end the exercise quickly. He told other conductors that he would give them second place, and he really lived up to their trust in the end. He originally thought there was no need to build a city, but the deputy commander wanted it, and he agreed. 】

[Although, the deputy commander didn't really want to build the city, and he didn't feel uncomfortable...]

[So let’s just say the command is very simple! 】

[That is, don’t think that a 16-year-old boy who grew up on a garbage planet knows much about the world. He has just come to the Emperor Star. Isn’t it normal to not understand these things? Let’s talk about the deputy commander’s expression at that time. If I wasn’t an insider, I would also think that he was not very good. 】

When Shen Minghuan came out of the virtual space, he was surrounded by excited classmates who asked him after him. He had a smile on his lips, as if he saw the same crazy netizens.

Tragedy is the destruction of beauty.

If you want to arouse heart-wrenching grief, you must first lift that person to a high place. The higher the person is, the more sacred they are. The sadder they become when they fall into the abyss.

And what could attract people’s attention more than beauty, strength and misery?

In the interstellar age, technology is so convenient that people can easily follow a person's life trajectory, feel happy and sad for him, rejoice for him, and feel heartbroken for him.

It would be a pity not to take advantage of it.

*

Principal Xie Xu did not hide his preference for Shen Minghuan. After the routine review meeting, he left with Shen Minghuan openly, making it clear that he wanted to give him some trouble.

But Shen Minghuan is Xie Xu's direct descendant, so no one can say anything.

What's more, after this incident, Shen Minghuan's reputation among everyone has reached a new level. He is young, coupled with his miserable life experience, he has simply become the number one favorite of the military academy.

It is not an exaggeration to say that he is the favorite of the alliance.

Principal Xie Xu smiled and pretended to blame: "Ming Huan, you have posed a big problem for the teacher. Remember to save some face for them next time. You still have to consider the impact on the school."

Shen Minghuan raised his head half-way, "I paid attention. I only fought the highest army, the teacher said."

The other military academies were eliminated after their flags were cut off, and most of them survived at the end. Only the Supreme Army was eliminated because all of them were "killed".

Xie Xu couldn't help but laugh when he remembered the message he sent to Shen Minghuan before starting, feeling half proud and half relieved.

Principal Xie is serious with all students, but for some reason, he can't help but soften his heart when seeing Shen Minghuan, and even his tone of voice is a bit gentle.

He rubbed Shen Minghuan's head, "You performed very well, but this is a military exercise, and you still have to follow the rules. How can you command the charge and order the soldiers to fight as long as they want to save their lives?"

Shen Minghuan thought for a while and explained seriously: "The rules are not guaranteed."

He has a good memory. Star Network let them know the rules and regulations before the military exercise began. Shen Minghuan was sure that there was no such provision.

If this were said by others, it would be a bit unreasonable, but Shen Minghuan has always been sincere and serious. In the eyes of the people in the First Army, he can't even joke, let alone quibble.

Xie Xu asked with a smile: "Then when you go to the real battlefield and lead the army on an expedition, will you have to deal with the Zerg alone?"

"Why not?" Shen Minghuan asked unconvinced.

The principal tapped Shen Minghuan on the forehead with his finger, and he pretended to teach: "Individual heroism is not advisable, kid. At critical moments, you must believe in the power of the collective."

Although he didn't use much force, the principal still subconsciously rubbed his little head, "The Zerg are different from those young people in the greenhouse. Ming Huan, don't underestimate them. It's taboo to underestimate the enemy."

These so-called campus figures are nothing if thrown on the battlefield. Any soldier captured by the four major legions can achieve Shen Minghuan's shocking performance today.

The gap between students and soldiers is so big. Without experiencing the baptism of blood and fire, without feeling the line of life and death, no matter how good the school results are, they are just words on paper.

"Oh." Shen Minghuan responded obediently: "Teacher, don't worry, I will treat the Zerg very carefully."

Xie Xu nodded with satisfaction, stroking his beard and laughing heartily: "You are indeed my good apprentice."

The afterglow of the setting sun spreads to the ground, seeming to make the time soft and warm.

Later, the Zerg dust filled the field of vision, and Shen Minghuan stood alone in front.

Xie Xu thought of this evening in panic, and realized then that Shen Minghuan had not made any promise.

From the beginning to the end, he never promised not to be a hero again.

He decided early on that he wanted to be a hero.

*

The military exercise, which was originally expected to last for one month, ended in one day, disrupting the arrangements of the six military academies.

In order to make up for the gap, they had to prepare another military exercise and deprived Shen Minghuan of his qualification to participate, saying that he needed more formal training.

However, although Shen Minghuan did not participate, his shadow seemed to be everywhere on the battlefield. In the past, when the First Army changed classes, students would take the time to rest and replenish their energy. Now, the whole school is asking Shen Minghuan for help.

By the time more than half of the exercise had passed, the First Army's advantage had become very obvious. They still habitually looked for Shen Minghuan as soon as possible after leaving the Star Network.

"East, east, Teacher Chen said he just saw Ming Huan going to the east of the school!"

"Really? But the security uncle said he saw Ming Huan at the playground in the south half an hour ago."

"Have you looked in the library? I've looked in both rows of study rooms, and they're all empty."

"Hey Mos Nian, we looked for it earlier. You three go to the left and have a look. Let's go to the right."

The students shouted loudly and ran away. The scene was extremely chaotic, and those who didn't know thought something serious had happened.

Yan Ji panted and stopped, "I don't understand, why don't we use optical brains? Technology is just a decoration!"

"Is that the problem?" Mosnian said with a smile: "Today is the last day of the exercise. Our First Army is sure of victory. Shouldn't it be strange why we are still looking for Ming Huan at this time?"

Lu Zhiyi also laughed, "But it was quite fun. I really hope to do a few more exercises. However, the battle situation on the front line has stabilized and the teachers are on their way back, so classes will probably continue as usual."

January has gone by in a hurry, and life on campus is busy and peaceful. It seems that every day when I wake up and open my eyes, there are a lot of new things waiting for me, and I will never be bored.

"It's a good thing that the war situation has stabilized." Mosnian nodded heavily, his eyes shining, full of uncontrollable joy. He also received news that Mo Hongxue and Mo Hexuan were back this time and would stay in the Emperor Star for a while.

Their family has not been reunited for a long time.

However, thinking of the word "family", Mosnian's mood became slightly depressed.

"Si Nian?" Yan Ji is very sensitive to the emotional changes of his friends [gǎn].

Mosnian showed a slightly forced smile and said, "It's okay, I just feel that...the alliance has sacrificed a lot of heroes this time."

This is indeed true.

And usually the stronger the mental talent, the greater the probability of sacrifice.

Only the Zerg are the weak and the strong.

The strong men of the human race have always protected their compatriots. When a crisis comes, they are the strongest line of defense.

Yan Ji exaggeratedly changed the subject, "Ah, I'm so tired. Where did Shen Minghuan hide?"

The classmates of the First Army did not notice the unusual relationship between them and Shen Minghuan, so they naturally invited them to join in the happy game of "Looking for Shen Minghuan".

They didn't know how to explain it, so they had no choice but to agree cheerfully, but in reality they were fishing in the water.

"Are you looking for me?"

A small head suddenly poked out of the window on the second floor. Shen Minghuan was wearing a red fox mask today. The young man who was pampered by all the teachers and students and became more and more confident and domineering was now a little timid. His tone was tentative: "I seemed to have heard my name just now?" Lu Zhiyi's fingers trembled.

"Maybe I heard wrong." Shen Minghuan said and was about to shrink back.

"Wait, you heard me right!" Mosnian felt a little sad inexplicably, and his impulse preceded his rationality. By the time he reacted, he had already stopped Shen Minghuan.

Mosnian pursed his lips, not that he regretted it, but... what should he say?

Yan Ji also felt a little guilty. Seeing that Mosnian expressed his feelings, he breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly echoed: "Yes, yes, we are looking for you."

He blinked at Lu Zhiyi, showing with his eyes that he still remembered the agreement between them, and now it was just a joke.

Lu Zhiyi forced a smile and lowered his head.

These days, he watched Shen Minghuan being omnipotent on the virtual battlefield, watching this man stir up troubles while talking and laughing, and become so popular on the Star Network, that he almost forgave himself.

——But Shen Minghuan is still a young man with a miserable life experience, with an overly sensitive mind and an overly upright and kind character.

The guilt in Lu Zhiyi's heart spread layer by layer.

He would rather Shen Minghuan blame him, hate him and blame him, and it doesn't matter if he takes revenge on him. However, this person has an outrageous temper and only knows how to accommodate others.

He thought about it carefully and found that in all the time he had known Shen Minghuan, he had never heard of this person rejecting anyone's request.

The only time Shen Minghuan could be called losing his temper seemed to be when he saw them sneaking out of the military camp recklessly and refusing to ask for help when they met the Zerg when they first met.

In addition, even if he said such hurtful words before, Shen Minghuan's eyes were clear and magnanimous.

Such a person deserves such radiant treatment.

Shen Minghuan deserves all the good things in the world.

Lu Zhiyi glanced at his friend quietly again, he thought, but Mos Nian is different, Si Nian is not as powerful as Shen Minghuan, he has to protect Si Nian.

Mosnian was still racking his brains to think of a topic, "Well, Ming Huan, we are going to win the military exercise."

Shen Minghuan was obviously stunned for a moment, as if he didn't expect that the topic that the other party came to talk to him about after the "falling out" would be so simple. However, he soon laughed: "Well, I watched the live broadcast. You guys are awesome."

Shen Minghuan often praises people, and his deeds are widely circulated on the forum, and countless people have been praised by him.

He is a unique genius, and no one he praises is as good as him, but he is extremely sincere, and every word comes from his heart.

Someone on the forum wrote a 3,000-word essay in a disgusting way, describing Shen Minghuan as his salvation.

He wrote that the First Army was full of talents, but he had fallen into an emotional low of inferiority and self-loathing since he entered school. It was Shen Minghuan who made him believe that he might not be that bad.

The long story is deeply touching and made me shed many tears.

Yan Ji blushed, "No, no, it's all your fault."

"I just put forward a few small ideas, and it's all you who contribute."

Shen Minghuan pulled the window sill and jumped down from above. The fiery red fox was dazzling. He said with a smile: "It is my classmates who turned my idea into reality. I should thank you all."

"Shen Minghuan!"

The three of them were startled.

Lu Zhiyi reproached fearfully: "This is the second floor, how could you just jump down?"

"Only the second floor." Shen Minghuan didn't care much, "We are soldiers, this height is nothing."

"Who are you from the army? You're still a student! A sixteen-year-old kid!" Yan Ji retorted with bared teeth.

Mosnian also emphasized: "This must not be done in the future. It is very dangerous."

Seeing Shen Minghuan nod obediently, he took back his serious expression and replaced it with hesitation and confusion.

Before anyone else could ask, Mosnian said: "Ming Huan, the day after tomorrow is my birthday. I would like to invite you and Shang Chi to my home for the birthday party. Are you willing to come?"

After the words fell, the three of them could clearly see that the corners of Shen Minghuan's smiling mouth stiffened for a moment.

The fiery red fox made his skin as white as jade, and the mask obscured his expression. When he wasn't smiling, there was a kind of divine compassion and alienation.

This was the first time they saw such an unusual expression on this man in Mosnian.

Shen Minghuan was silent for a moment, sighed almost inaudibly, and said softly: "Thank you, but I have something to do that day, so I won't go."

"Why?" Mosnian naturally refused to believe such a perfunctory excuse. He spoke sincerely: "Ming Huan, we had some misunderstandings before, but this time I really want to invite you."

Yan Ji also nodded repeatedly and advised: "Go, go. Si Nian's father, Commander Mo, will also come to his birthday party, as well as the second lieutenant of the Qinglong Legion, Mo Hexuan. Don't you want to meet them?"

These two are the idols of all military cadets.

Yan Ji winked at him and said, "Commander Mo feels sorry for Si Nian. I'll ask Si Nian to recommend you when the time comes."

Mosnian pursed his lips and smiled, without retorting.

Shen Minghuan seemed a little distracted.

Although his expression was hidden behind the mask, it made people feel that he was not happy at the moment. But if it is said to be sadness and worry, it is not quite like it. It is an indescribable emotion that makes the young man in front of him feel a little more desolate.

They couldn't understand Mosnian.

"Ah, Ming Huan is here, come quickly!" A scream of surprise cut through the weird atmosphere, and many students magically appeared on both sides of the path.

As if in just a blink of an eye, a large number of people gathered in front of them, their eyes glowing green.

"Ming Huan——"

Yan Ji was startled when he saw the crowd rushing towards him. He quickly took Mosnian and Lu Zhiyi one by one and fled the center. Before leaving, he did not forget to turn around and shout: "Ming Huan, it's settled, you must come." , we will pick you up from your dormitory the day after tomorrow."

Yan Ji was very proud and showed off to the two of them in a low voice: "Look, what I call this is to kill first and then show off, to seize the enemy first, to strike first and gain the upper hand! When the time comes, we will go directly to their dormitory to block people."

Shen Minghuan was also very proud.

He enjoyed the care and love of the students from the First Army around him, and thought to himself that this was not what he wanted to do, he was forced to do so.
