"Haha, why do I feel like you're more suited to be the leader?" Wang Zheng laughed. Raston was rough on the outside, but he was meticulous on the inside. He was definitely no fool.
"I know myself. Sometimes, I can see things clearly, but I don't want to waste my energy. Only with a good leader can one unleash their full potential."
Raston had hit the nail on the head. It did not seem to matter who the leader was, but it mattered. As a member, one had to obey orders. But what if the other party's orders made one feel helpless or disgusted?
In a place like IG, the leader had to have the ability to intimidate the masses and coordinate the entire team in order to unleash their full potential. The Solar System's IG selection was not the goal. The goal was outside.
Otherwise, Meng Ao and the rest would not have gone through so much trouble.
Raston could see clearly that Wang Zheng had not considered this before, mainly because he had not reached that level.
"Actually, you're very suited to be the leader," Raston suddenly said.
Wang Zheng was taken aback, then laughed. "That's a compliment. I accept it, haha."
"Keke, it's not a compliment. Your performance in the first stage was very good. Many people might think that it was luck. Regardless of who was strong or weak, you guys did the best in the details and team cohesion," Raston said.
Raston said. He had seen Wang Zheng carry Zhang Shan as they ran. A person who would not abandon his teammates could not be too bad. Moreover, he was not a goody two shoes. One had to know that goody two shoes would also drag others down. Zhang Shan had managed to persevere in the end and had achieved the best results in the zero-gravity space.
This showed that Wang Zheng had a good eye for people.
But there was one thing that Raston was curious about. Achilles would not easily recruit people, and he did not care to do so. But why did Lear not do the same?
With Lear's foresight, he did not believe that Lear could not see Wang Zheng's potential.
Besides, with the Chronos family's strength, it would be too easy to recruit someone.
In fact, Taros had the same question.
Someone like Wang Zheng, who did not possess Ability X, yet had such solid fundamentals, was definitely a good candidate.
"Lear, Wang Zheng is one of your people. If you feel that the Ares College students are good, why don't you try? That would increase your chances."
At this moment, Taros was enjoying Lear's hospitality. This was one of the Chronos family's palaces. It was as comfortable as a king, and Taros loved it.
If even Taros could see it, how could Lear not? On the contrary, he was the first to discover it.
"Let's observe a little longer. Without Ability X, he won't be able to go far."
Lear smiled faintly.
"That's true." Talos reached his hand into the clothes of a beauty beside him and ravaged her to his heart's content.
There were four girls around Talos, each with a different style, but none around Lear.
"Lear, are you really not going to come? Good things should be shared." Taros' other hand patted the plump buttocks on the right. It was really perky and bouncy. Most importantly, it was still unmarried. Lear was too kind.
Lear smiled. "A gentleman doesn't snatch what others like. It's rare for us to be here, so we must have fun. But take care of your health."
"Haha, don't worry. This kind of enjoyment can't knock me down. The more I exercise, the fiercer I get. Am I right, my babies?"
Wine and beauties were the joys of life. Taros was not a fool. He would enjoy himself when he should, and be serious when he should. Lear had taken a fancy to him because of his strength, but Lear's reminder made Taros feel very comfortable. Playing petty tricks with him was the most meaningless thing.
After leaving the room, Lear's thoughts were not on Taros at all.
Wang Zheng … still made him feel very uncomfortable.
Drupe appeared silently. "Young Master, everything went smoothly. He's gone."
Lear nodded. In the invitation from the Solar System Alliance's Academy of Sciences, the Chronos family had put in a lot of effort. Wang Zheng was very talented in other aspects, and this was a good thing. Would more glory and flattery make him consider another path?
Regardless of the outcome, it was certain that he would be distracted.
Drupe wanted to say something but stopped. Lear smiled. "If you have something to say, just say it. Why are you hesitating?"
As Lear's prestige grew, Drupe did not dare to have any other thoughts.
"Young Master, is this person worth it?" Drupe felt that it was a bit of a hassle. A person who did not even have Ability X, and there were many ways to deal with him.
Lear shook his head slightly. "This is a trial."
The trial that Lear was referring to was the tempering of the heart of a king. His control, judgment, and strategy were decisive.
Whether it was to destroy a person or to conquer a person, fighting and killing were the most inferior methods.
Wang Zheng and Taros were a good example.
Throughout history, a king was most adept at silently nurturing others.
Things could be arranged, but one had to walk one's own path.
Wang Zheng and Raston were indeed chatting happily. Raston's straightforwardness suited his temperament. During the IG selection, they were all competitors, and it was not convenient for them to interact. But now it was different, and they could freely express their personalities. Both were very confident, and there was no need for anything. In fact, it was more natural.
As for the exchange, since he was already here, he would rush back if he could. It did not matter if he could not, as it was not the main point. On one hand, he knew that even if he was there, he would not be able to get anything out of the discussion. Besides, he could not stand that kind of nonsensical flattery.
With Big Sister Xiao Fei's strength, finding an excuse was easy.
Lie Guang and Raston were obviously very familiar with each other. The two gave each other a warm hug the moment they met.
"You rascal, you're finally willing to come over and play. I've invited you so many times."
"Aren't we here now? Let me introduce you. Wang Zheng, the awesome person from Earth's Ares College. Lie Guang, the spoiled brat of the Lie family," Raston said. He was obviously very familiar with Lie Guang.
Lie Guang looked at Wang Zheng. "You're the pretty boy Wang Zheng. Your face is not white at all."
Wang Zheng and Raston looked at each other. What was this all about?
"Haha, this is what Lie Xin told me. There's a guy in IG who's living off a woman. He's pretty smart." Lie Guang's personality had always been casual, and he did not mind being polite on their first meeting.
If it was someone else, no matter who you were, they would have turned around and left. But Wang Zheng was not a petty person. "Living off a woman is my dream. It's a pity that my face is too black."
"Haha, to be able to leave an impression on my sister, that's enough."
Lie Guang extended his hand, and the two shook it. Lie Guang's eyes moved slightly. "Welcome to Mars."
After a little probing, he knew that Raston was not someone who would be friends with just anyone.
"You're the host, so you have to serve us well. Have you prepared the tickets?"
"What tickets?"
"You rascal, you're not a pretty girl. I came all the way here just to see you. Of course it's Huiyin's concert. Didn't you say you could get a seat in the first row?"
Raston said.
Lie Guang slapped his head. "Damn, I forgot. I've been working too hard recently. It's a small matter. Wait for me."
The maglev car was carrying the three of them towards the Lie family's villa in Jippu.
"What did you say? I can't get it! Do you know who I am?" Lie Guang shouted. Just as Raston had said, on the surface, Lie Guang really looked like a spoiled brat.
The person opposite was obviously in a difficult position. Normal seats could be easily obtained, but the first row had obviously been reserved in advance. Those who could get their hands on it were no small matter. How could they get tickets at the last minute?
"Forget it, stop acting. If you can't get it, then so be it. I'll have to rip you off," Raston said. He had come not only to watch the concert, but also to discuss some matters with Lie Xin.
Raston's situation was also very special. He wanted to leave the Solar System and had to make a choice. Compared to Achilles and Lear, he would rather choose Lie Xin. This way, he could still maintain a certain degree of freedom, and at least be more comfortable.
Lie Guang shrugged helplessly. "Damn it, what kind of world is this? I just wanted to show off in front of a new friend, and now I've fallen. The Lie family's reputation is getting worse and worse."
"You brat, you've been using the Lie family's name to swindle and cheat outside. Who would believe you?"
"Damn, isn't that because I've had a hard time? I'm a prodigal son now. What a pity, the effect is different on the spot." Lie Guang laughed, completely unconcerned about the Lie family's reputation.
"Isn't that obvious? If I knew you were so unreliable, I would have booked it myself." Raston was also a little regretful.
"Perhaps, I can give it a try." Wang Zheng laughed.
Lie Guang and Raston were stunned, looking at him. "Haha, you want to learn from me too? Bro, don't mind me. I'm just a person who doesn't think before I speak. You'll know once you get to know me," Lie Guang said.
Wang Zheng searched for Lin Huiyin's number on his Skylink. The truth was, he did not know if Lin Huiyin would pick up.
After sending the message, there was no response for a while.
"Forget it, Wang Zheng. The tickets for this concert are very popular and have long been sold out. Remember this brat's words in the future." Raston sneered at Lie Guang.
The two of them had known each other since they were very young, and their personalities were rather compatible. They did not hold back when they spoke.
Wang Zheng laughed. "I'm just trying. If it doesn't work, there's no other way."
Lin Huiyin must be very busy, and probably had no time for him.
Lie Guang and Raston did not think too much about it. They only thought that Wang Zheng had said this because he had lost face.
"Huiyin is pretty and has a sweet voice. Not bad. I feel like she's almost my girlfriend," Lie Guang said. "Sigh, how could I forget such an important thing?"
"Will you die if you don't brag?" Raston said. "Wait until you become the Milky Way Alliance Chairman."
"Tsk, look at this face of mine. Look at this forehead. I have a full forehead and a rich and noble life. Even the Milky Way Alliance Chairman depends on whether I'm willing or not."
Lie Guang said.
Wang Zheng finally understood. This guy was the kind of guy who talked whatever he wanted. It would be foolish to take him seriously.
At this moment, his Skylink rang.
"Wang Zheng, you still remember that I'm coming. You actually took so long to send me a message!"
Lin Huiyin said. Wang Zheng did not know whether to laugh or cry. This missy … no, little princess, really thought that she was omnipotent. But then again, in her world, not to mention interplanetary travel, even interplanetary travel was a common occurrence.
