Wang Zheng voiced out his thoughts. Meng Tian and Zhang Runan expressed that they did not understand. They could not understand how Wang Zheng and Zhang Shan had chosen their positions.
At this moment, Su Yan appeared on the communicator and announced the results.
"Achilles is first, Lie Xin is second, Luo Fei is third …"
What!
Zhang Shan's eyes widened. The third place belonged to the fatty beside Lear!
This did not feel good.
The fatty did not know what to do and initiated a private message with Zhang Shan. "Aiya, I accidentally got third place. Mountain Maiden, it's all thanks to you. I've been using you as a role model."
Role model my ass!
Zhang Shan was furious. But as the last in the rankings, he obviously had no right to refute. He would only be mocked if he said anything. He could only accept it in silence.
"… The ranking is not important. The key is everyone's teamwork. Now, we will begin the group adaptation training. Lie Xin, Lear, Raston, Pi Xiaoxiu … you guys form a team. Achilles, Lie Guang, Taros … the few of you form a team …"
Su Yan divided the people into two teams. The first time, the Eight Stars of the Moon were split up. Pi Xiaoxiu and Dong Xiaosa were placed on Lie Xin's side. Then, Lear and Lie Xin were placed together. At the same time, Lie Guang was placed beside Achilles. This was a bad rhythm, but it was also a test. Was personal feelings or teamwork more important?
Wherever there were people, there would be conflicts. The military was no exception. They could not possibly suspect each other and cause trouble in the face of a big battle, right?
This was also a form of preparation. No matter who became the Solar System's IG team leader, the others had to learn to do their best to assist, and not be lazy or even drag the team down.
"Ahem, Instructor Su Yan, did you miss something?"
Zhang Shan suddenly called out. Wang Zheng also coughed lightly, a little embarrassed. The wheel of fortune had turned. The two who had been the best in the previous stage had now become the last in the rankings.
And in the grouping just now, their names were not called out by Su Yan.
Su Yan smiled. "You two have other tasks."
Zhang Shan quickly shook his head. "Instructor, let's not be special. That's not good. It's not fair to everyone."
Su Yan smiled. Zhang Shan's problem was that he thought too highly of himself.
Therefore, Wang Zheng and Zhang Shan were arranged to train alone to adapt to the space mecha's condition. It was a little like when they were young and were detained for failing a test.
The others continued with their tests and training. The score from before was still accumulating. Obviously, it was an important reference value.
As for Wang Zheng and Zhang Shan, they could only pilot their mecha and drift around in space slowly. They couldn't rush it. The more they rushed, the slower it would be. They could only accept and adapt bit by bit.
Zhang Shan vomited very fiercely. After vomiting, his stomach was so twisted that he had no appetite at all. He could only inject nutritional supplements to maintain his body.
Wang Zheng was slightly better. At least he didn't vomit much. However, he had used up a lot of energy. After two days, he was indeed a little tired. The key was that he couldn't find the reason. However, compared to Zhang Shan, he took a long time to adapt. Zhang Shan had already started to feel less dizzy. He had already gotten used to the space mecha's perspective. As for Wang Zheng, not only did he not get used to it, his situation became even worse.
"Wang Zheng, you can't be. It's actually not that difficult. I think it might be your mentality. Don't rush it …" Zhang Shan was very anxious. With Wang Zheng's strength, he had a high chance of winning the position of team leader. However, if he was stuck here, he would be finished. Looking at the training over there, Achilles, Lie Xin, and Lear already had a terrifying amount of points. However, Wang Zheng still had a big zero.
"I also don't know. I obviously wanted to concentrate, but unconsciously, my spiritual energy scattered. I wanted to control more, but I couldn't control it." Wang Zheng shook his head helplessly. He wanted to sigh but couldn't. The thing in his stomach was rolling, making a gurgling sound. He didn't want it to be like this, but he just couldn't control it. It was a little strange. Moreover, he had a weird dream at night. When he woke up, he couldn't remember what it was. He just felt that the world was spinning, and he was very tired, hungry, and uncomfortable. He had never experienced such a thing before.
The two of them discussed for a while, but Wang Zheng still couldn't get the gist of it. He could only continue to adapt according to the method that Su Yan provided.
Drachmach and Su Yan had been paying attention to Wang Zheng. According to their expectations, with Wang Zheng's strength, he should be able to stay in the mecha for about 10 hours before he could complete the feeling of the new space. After that, he would explode crazily.
However, unexpected situations always caught people off guard. Not only did Wang Zheng's condition not improve, but as he adapted to the training, it became even worse. Moreover, Wang Zheng didn't look too good. It seemed to be the early symptoms of malnutrition.
"Not sleeping well? That's not right. The data from the previous physical examination showed that even if he didn't eat or sleep for three days and three nights, he would still be full of energy. "
Su Yan pondered. Although Wang Zheng was an Earthling, in this IG, there was no distinction between them. It was related to the big plan of the Solar System. Wang Zheng's sudden emergence was actually a good thing.
Although each of them still had their own hidden trump cards and strengths, anyone with a discerning eye could still see that Achilles, Lear, and Lie Xin had all made new improvements after Wang Zheng's strong rise. At their level, even a little improvement was extremely hard to come by.
Drachmach also found it strange. The current Wang Zheng was a little too abnormal. "Maybe they were pushed too hard, and are not used to the conventional methods. We can let them … follow their own steps. If it really doesn't work, there's no other way. The captain's requirement is to be well-rounded. If there are shortcomings, it definitely won't work."
The order to rest was sent to Wang Zheng and Zhang Shan's communicators. They could rest and move freely, and then adapt on their own.
"Are we being left to fend for ourselves?"
Zhang Shan grabbed his hair. Usually, when such orders were sent, if they still couldn't perform, what awaited them was eight or nine times out of ten, being abandoned.
Wang Zheng took a deep breath. "There's tension and there's relaxation. Let's rest for a while first. Then we'll go over there and watch their battle training."
After two days, the initial simulation battle with the computer AI was no longer needed. The team was randomly divided into two teams, or they would carry out cooperative training, or the two teams would directly carry out battle training in various kinds of space environments under complex circumstances.
What was going on now was a large space battle. The electro-optical simulation system had created a battle in space between two equally matched fleets. The numbers and abilities of the battleships and mecha controlled by the computer AI were equal. The only thing that could decide the outcome of this battle was the two mecha teams that were fiercely colliding with each other.
This was not a simple battle, but tactics and strategies. It was not necessary for the two teams to directly fight head-on, but to invest their strength in the areas that should be invested in the battle.
This was a demonstration and training of overall control and judgment. It was mainly focused on the three of them, Achilles, Lear, and Lie Xin.
This time, Lear and Lie Xin were randomly assigned to the same team.
The two of them were obviously fighting for the command and control of the team. Achilles' previous outburst had also made the competition white-hot.
On the other side, Achilles did not seem to be having an easy time. No one was fighting with him for command, but the team members that he had to command were the Martians. They were used to the Eight Stars of the Moon. Obviously, it was not easy to command the "eccentric" Martians.
However, the more he messed up the team members, the more terrifying Achilles was. In this battle, he did not take any action at all. He was only at the back, coordinating and directing the Martians to various small battles. For battles, the Martians would obviously not dawdle just because the orders came from Achilles. That was not in their character. Moreover, this also affected their results.
Under Achilles' command, the balance of the battle was slowly tilting towards the side of the fleet that he was in. It was just an elite team of more than ten mecha. Under normal circumstances, the use of such a small team in a frontal battle was actually limited. However, Achilles did it. It was a kind of nibbling away. He could always send the Martians to where they should be at the most crucial moment.
This was a terrifying form of tactical control. What Achilles had to calculate was not only the ever-changing battle situation, but also the time that the Martians needed to spend to rush to their positions. There were also various possible accidents that could occur, including the obstructions that Lie Xin and Lear had made.
Achilles smiled faintly. In the beginning, Lie Xin and Lear were only commanding. However, under such circumstances, they had no choice but to take action. However, Achilles still did not move. The Eight Stars of the Moon did not act recklessly on the opposite side. Instead, they were fighting with all their might. The rigorous and proud people of the Moon would never play tricks, even if their opponent was their boss, Achilles.
Even so, the outcome was still the same. The virtual fleet that Achilles was in had obtained an overall advantage. The overwhelming number of mecha swarmed forward, and the fleets on Lie Xin and Lear's side were beginning to collapse. Under such circumstances, no matter how strong the ten or so mecha were, it was impossible for them to continue fighting. They could only retreat.
Boom … The simulated battlefield scene slowly retreated, revealing the original empty space.
Wang Zheng's blood was boiling as he watched from the side. He really wanted to join the battle. Achilles was indeed very strong, but he was not without flaws. It was just that there were too many problems with the cooperation between Lie Xin and Lear. They could not seize these important opportunities to counterattack.
Meng Tian and Zhang Runan sent a message. "How is it?"
Both of their replies were the same: shaking their heads.
Meng Tian and Zhang Runan did not know what to say. Wang Zheng and Zhang Shan were already lagging far behind. They could not say any words of comfort. If they were anxious, they did not dare to say anything either. They were afraid that adding fuel to the fire would have the opposite effect.
The battle training came to an end. It was lunchtime.
Everyone retreated to the space station. As for Wang Zheng and Zhang Shan … they did not have such plans. Wang Zheng did not want to eat, and Zhang Shan did not dare to eat. If he ate, he would vomit. It was better to not eat and just give him a nutrition supplement.
The floor-to-ceiling view window of the space station's restaurant faced everyone's training ground. At this moment, they could see the two mecha, Wang Zheng and Zhang Shan, slowly walking around the training ground.
Atos smiled faintly. "Wang Zheng is finished."
