Lie Guang smiled and explained, "That's because you don't have experience. Look at the receipt from your Skylink. Your ticket should also be 10 Galaxy Dollars. The other 90 Galaxy Dollars is the processing fee. As you know, it's very troublesome for banks to transfer money between planets … The main reason is that Earth's traffic signal card is not fully connected to Mars, so it's not expensive. Your traffic signal card is registered successfully on Mars, and there will be no processing fee next time. Oh, right, as long as you swipe a hundred times on Mars, the processing fee will be refunded."
Zhang Shan's eyes widened. A hundred times? It would be better not to add such a fee.
"Wang Zheng, it looks like we're out of luck." The only thing that made Zhang Shan feel warm was that Wang Zheng swiped the traffic signal card before him. With someone accompanying him, he did not feel too cold.
Wang Zheng smiled and said, "I've been to Mars before. Actually, you can register for free at the service counter …"
Free registration?
Free!!!
Zhang Shan's eyes were bloodshot. "Why didn't you say so earlier!"
"It's written in the Mars travel brochure." Zhang Runan walked over and patted Zhang Shan's shoulder. A beautiful blow. Zhang Shan's body trembled, but he still struggled. "We're not here for a vacation. Who has the time to look at that?"
"It's also written at the bottom of the Mars page for the Skylink visa."
At this time, Meng Tian walked over and swiped the card to pass. Then, she gave Zhang Shan the final "blow."
Although it was IG training, and everything was green light, the visa still had to be present in person. The process was simple, and one only needed to sign an electronic signature to pass. But once the signature was signed, one would have to enter the page of the planet that issued the visa. There were some things to note that had to be read according to the visa requirements.
Zhang Shan instantly deflated.
Lie Guang smiled and comforted him. "I'll treat you to a Martian feast later. You'll be fine after eating."
"This is different, but … what's a Martian feast …"
Deep in Zhang Shan's bones, he had quite a lot of connections with the word 'foodie'. Very quickly, he cast aside the unhappiness of the 90 Galaxy Dollars and pulled Lie Guang to ask about it. Wang Zheng smiled. "There were a few snacks that were not bad the last time. I must try them again …"
As Zhang Shan listened to Wang Zheng and Lie Guang's introduction, he started to drool. Beside him, Zhang Runan's eyes were filled with disdain. Meng Tian, on the other hand, spoke up from time to time. It was obvious that she had been to Mars before.
Not long after, everyone boarded the interstellar train that went straight to Mars. On the side, there were also interstellar trains that went to other space stations or space cities. There were as many as seven space cities orbiting Mars, with more than ten million residents.
Similar to the city transportation system, the seats on the Galactic Train were free to sit or even stand. In terms of stability, the Galactic Train was even more stable than a transport ship.
Wang Zheng found a seat by the window and sat down. Zhang Shan dragged Lie Guang along to continue discussing Martian delicacies. Of course, other than delicacies, they also talked about other things, such as underground fighting, and beautiful women …
Meng Tian took the opportunity to sit beside Wang Zheng. In the past, this had always been Zhang Shan's seat. They were brothers from the same dormitory. When they were outside, of course they had to take care of each other … these were Zhang Shan's original words.
Wang Zheng smiled and smelled a faint natural fragrance. Ever since the start of the IG training camp, the two of them had not sat together in such a relaxed manner for a long time.
"Wang Zheng, in which direction do you think I should improve my abilities?"
At this moment, Meng Tian suddenly opened her mouth and asked.
Meng Tian had improved a lot recently, and she was starting to face a choice. There were many directions for her ice ability. Some were mainly offensive, and some were mainly supportive. Looking at Wang Zheng, Meng Tian found it a little difficult to choose.
Wang Zheng was stunned for a second. "Don't think about us. Just choose the most suitable one for you."
Meng Tian nodded silently, as if she understood. This made Wang Zheng a little worried, and he stared at Meng Tian a few times.
Meng Tian turned her face away. Her snow-white face had a tinge of red. "What's wrong?"
"Nothing, hehe."
Wang Zheng shook his head.
Meng Tian's eyes were like fans, and she gently blinked twice. "Don't worry."
"… I'm not worried."
Wang Zheng touched his chin. Meng Tian revealed a thin smile. After training together for a long time, some of the things in the heart did not need to be said directly. Just a few words and a look were enough to understand each other's hearts.
The power of the same origin made the two of them even more tacit.
The interstellar train slowly flew into the standard signal channel. Accompanied by a slight vibration, the train began to accelerate. It did not choose to fly in a straight line to Mars, but instead circled around the track. At this time, through the window, one could see the beauty of Mars. It was a different kind of beauty from Earth. It was not as blue as Earth, and more of it was dry land.
At this time, Lie Xin was very active in the carriage, playing the role of the host of Mars. The Lie family was indeed the host of Mars, the oldest aristocratic family, and also the current ruler of Mars. Regardless of whether it was black or gray, if one did not have some relationship with the Lie family, they would not be able to stand on Mars.
Lie Xin and Achilles had been forced to the final juncture. Mars was the last stop, and also the last chance.
To Lie Xin, there was no reason for them to lose in a home battle. Of course, she had to be careful of Lear. Similarly, if Lear could win this round, he would also win. This guy was too cunning.
The interstellar train circled Mars once, and entered the Martian atmosphere steadily. Then, it entered the 3,000-meter track and continued moving forward.
The train did not have only one destination, but one station per city. Mars had 16 state-level cities.
"Everyone, welcome to Mars' Vulture City. This place was once rich in a type of rare metal …"
Every time it stopped at a state city, the train would broadcast some of the local cultural and historical events. Moreover, the speed of the interstellar train was extremely fast, and the interval between each stop was not more than ten minutes at most. Thus, they did not feel that the time was passing by in boredom. Along the way, they looked at the Martian scenery outside the window.
Everyone was trying their best to relax. From Earth to the Moon, this time's IG training was unusually intense, and the pace was also very fast. Humans were not made of iron, and the truly strong would always find time for themselves to catch their breath.
Half an hour later, the train arrived at their destination, Water City.
This was the sixth stop of the interstellar train.
Just as they got off the train, there was already a group of Martian soldiers standing on the platform to welcome them.
The Martian civilians were very cooperative with the actions of the military. They avoided this area, and the onlookers also kept a distance. The order was very good. Not only in terms of quality, but on Mars, everyone had to serve in the military. If they could not enter the regular army, they had to enter the militia for two years. However, after seeing Meng Tian and Milo, there were especially many young men whistling. Martians had always been like this to express their desires.
However, after seeing Lie Xin, the whistling shrank their necks. The future Queen of Mars, this was recognized by everyone.
Lie Xin smiled and generously waved to the onlookers, greeting them.
Roar —
In an instant, there was an explosion of cheers, and thunderous applause for their Queen.
"Everyone, this way."
The soldier who welcomed them led them out of the platform and into the tarmac on the other side. A military transport plane was on standby.
After boarding the transport plane, there was no nonsense and it took off immediately. Rumble, the plane's fuselage trembled. It was a typical Martian feel, rough, and did not care about the details. Only practicality and quality.
Comfortable? This word had never stayed in the minds of the Martians for more than a minute.
Everyone was very quiet. They were anticipating the cruel training that they would face next.
However, they did not expect that after arriving at their destination, they would be greeted by a military base built on a scenic island in the middle of a lake.
Alighting from the bumpy transport plane, they instantly felt as though they had fallen off a cliff into heaven.
Lie Xin smiled faintly and took a few steps out from the crowd. She turned back to face the crowd and said, "Everyone, welcome to Lake Ithanlis."
This was the territory of Mars. From now on, Lie Xin was truly going to take the lead.
A colonel came forward and gave a standard military salute.
"Everyone, welcome to Base M1. I'm Duncan, the person in charge of your training here. I won't say too much. I just want to remind everyone that Wang Zheng was chosen by Earth, and Lear was chosen by the Moon. In the battle on Mars, if either Wang Zheng or Lear wins, they will immediately become the team leader. If either Achilles or Lie Xin wins the vote from Mars, then there will be a tiebreaker. But in the end, everyone present will vote for the team leader."
As soon as Duncan's voice fell, everyone was stunned, especially Achilles. This was equivalent to cutting off his path. Even if Achilles won this round, the people of the Moon were now the target of public criticism. Unless something special happened, he would not have a share in the vote.
On the contrary, Lear had won a lot of popularity, and his momentum was high.
Duncan was very enthusiastic. He spoke loudly and laughed loudly, but his words still told everyone that the last round would not make them feel good.
Lie Xin, on the other hand, was calculating. Originally, she did not have to care about the opinions of the weak, but suddenly it had become like this. It seemed like she had to show her sincerity and win over the hearts of the people. That d * mned Lear, he had taken the first step. His attitude towards Edison and the rest had won him a lot of goodwill.
Lake Ithanlis, the largest naturally formed lake on Mars after the great transformation of Mars. The deepest part of the lake was more than 4,000 meters, not inferior to the ocean, but it was all freshwater.
In the early days of Mars becoming a residential planet, freshwater resources were a strategic resource. The military base on the island in the center of Lake Ithanlis came into being. Initially, it was to manage and protect the resources. During times of war, it had to be defended to prevent the enemy from destroying the freshwater resources of Mars, such as radiation, pollution, and so on.
Now, the water environment of Mars had become a global circulation system with the ability to purify itself. Oceans, lakes, rivers, large and small, and large areas of forests, water resources were no longer scarce.
The original function of the base had also changed. It had become the training base for the Martian Special Forces: Base M1.
M stood for Mars. Mars. The number "1" represented the first in the special sequence.
Everyone entered the base. The interior was decorated in accordance with the rough style of the Martians. It was simple, practical, and of high quality.
Other than the exterior looking a little rigid and rigid, in fact, it had everything that should be there. The conditions were very good.
"Rest today. Training officially starts tomorrow," said Colonel Duncan. He brought everyone on a simple tour of the base and arranged their accommodation. Finally, after a few words with Lie Xin, he left.
Just as Duncan left, Lie Xin clapped her hands. She had something to say.
