Chapter 444 - Don't Say We Won by Unfair Means (First Update for Moon Tickets)

What is the real value of this Longevity Flying Fish?

Xia Chujian couldn't help but send a message to Chief Instructor Pei.

[Xia Chujian]: Chief Instructor Pei, why are we catching this Longevity Flying Fish?

Pei Zijing replied without hesitation.

[Pei Zijing]: Xia Chujian, this is a military mission. You only have the obligation to execute, not the right to ask questions.

Xia Chujian: "..."

So arrogant? Of course, since he is a soldier, and this is a military mission, she really has no place to interject.

But that doesn't stop her from seeking answers through other channels.

Although Pei Zijing replied like that, he still explained a little content in the form of narration.

As the camera on the virtual display screen zoomed out from the planet, everyone saw the planet getting smaller and smaller, finally revealing its full view.

From this perspective, it was impossible to tell its size.

Pei Zijing's voice then sounded again.

"This Senze Star is located in the Gray Star Region of the Beichen Galaxy."

"This means it is an unclaimed planet."

"So we can go to this planet to collect resources."

"Don't worry, before we send people over, the Military has already sent high-level Gene Evolvers to survey the entire planet."

"The size of this planet is the same as Moon Satellite One, the largest satellite of Kanli Star, and the gravity system is the same."

"The atmospheric composition is suitable for human habitation."

"However, ninety percent of the land is covered by vegetation and forests. Only ten percent of the valley open areas are inhabited by the Shang People."

"And the Shang People are concentrated in four small valleys, with a total population of just over 100,000."

"They are still in an uncivilized, ignorant state, with technology mainly based on bronze ware."

"So ignore them. We just need to seize the time to capture the Longevity Flying Fish."

"This time, the Military will send 20,000 Starry Sky Marines, along with our twenty elite pilots, aboard four Starry Sky Cruisers, to fly to the star region where Senze Star is located."

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief after Pei Zijing's explanation.

Mao Yonggui said, "I didn't expect the Military to have already sent high-level Gene Evolvers to scout the way."

Chu Qingjuan also said, "The Shang People only number 100,000, and they are still in an ignorant era, so we can just ignore them."

Xia Chujian propped her head with her hand, leaned on the pillow, and muttered, "The Shang People number 100,000, and they have no technology at all... they can be completely ignored."

"But the Military sent 20,000 Starry Sky Marines to go with us."

"Is this Longevity Flying Fish that difficult to catch?"

Mao Yonggui and the other two didn't think so much.

But after being reminded by Xia Chujian, they also felt it might be more tricky.

However, they didn't care.

"Chujian, this time we have Starry Sky Cruisers and 20,000 Starry Sky Marines."

"They have a great advantage in landing operations."

"When the time comes, we'll be in the air, and they'll be on the ground, catching that Longevity Flying Fish. Won't it be a piece of cake?"

Xia Chujian felt something was strange when she heard this.

She frowned and said, "This thing is called Longevity Flying Fish, it's a fish, right?"

"Yeah! Of course, it's a fish."

"Fish live in water, right?"

"...Should be, right?"

"But I didn't see any rivers, lakes, or oceans on that planet..."

"Then where do these Longevity Flying Fish live?"

Mao Yonggui, Chu Qingjuan, and Sang Yadi exchanged glances, realizing something was amiss.

Catching fish requires rivers, lakes, or seas, but where were they on this planet?

Xia Chujian couldn't resist sending another message to Chief Instructor Pei.

[Xia Chujian]: Chief Instructor Pei, I don't seem to see any rivers, lakes, or seas on this Senze Star. Where do the Longevity Flying Fish live?

This time, Chief Instructor Pei answered her question.

[Pei Zijing]: Although Longevity Flying Fish are called fish, they live on land.

Xia Chujian: "..."

Great, fish that live on land and have wings to fly into the sky! I really can't use the Beichen Empire's common sense to measure this Senze Star! Xia Chujian then thought of Eze Star and instantly understood.

Right, different ecological environments will definitely breed different creatures. No need to be surprised.

Xia Chujian sat up from the bed and began to pack her things.

As soon as she finished packing, Chief Instructor Pei called all the trainees to the conference room.

The conference room had no tables or chairs, just an empty, large room.

The twenty trainees stood neatly, as if at military attention.

Chief Instructor Pei stood at the head, with his hands behind his back, and said, "For this operation, you will be divided into four groups."

"Each group will have five people, and you are free to form your own teams."

"However, each team must have at least one member of the opposite sex."

Lin Xiaoxiao's eyes lit up when she heard about forming teams freely, and she was about to join Xia Chujian's group.

But as soon as she heard Chief Instructor Pei say that each team must have at least one member of the opposite sex, she immediately deflated.

Xia Chujian would definitely team up with her three roommates, which meant they only had one spot left, and they had to recruit a male teammate.

At this moment, Chen Yansheng had already run to Xia Chujian's side, smiling and saying, "First Lieutenant Xia! I am your humble servant Chen Yansheng! Can I join your team?!"

He was just over 1.8 meters tall, looking only slightly taller than the 1.75-meter Xia Chujian.

He was slender and wiry, with sword-like eyebrows and large eyes, looking very lively and cheerful.

Xia Chujian also had a good impression of him, smiling as she looked at her three roommates and said, "What do you think?"

Chen Yansheng was from the Second Interstellar Fleet, while Mao Yonggui, Chu Qingjuan, and Sang Yadi were from the Fifth Interstellar Fleet, so they weren't familiar with him.

But Chen Yansheng had been a fan of Xia Chujian from the start, and recruiting someone like that would definitely ensure obedience to Xia Chujian's commands.

They were determined to follow Xia Chujian's lead.

It was much better than recruiting someone with an unclear attitude.

So the three of them nodded together and said, "No problem."

Chen Yansheng stood happily beside Xia Chujian, cupping his fist at the other three and saying, "Second Lieutenants, please take care of me!"

He knew the names of Mao Yonggui, Chu Qingjuan, and Sang Yadi, but hadn't interacted with them much.

However, being able to live in the same dormitory as Xia Chujian, and Xia Chujian even taking them to fly across the Asteroid Belt, Chen Yansheng felt that they shouldn't be difficult to get along with.

Because he trusted Xia Chujian.

Thus, Xia Chujian's team was actually the first to be formed.

Then, Xia Chujian saw Chu Qingchen, Hui Zhifeng, Zhuo Hanchen, Ji Nabi, and Lü Luyu form a team.

Except for Zhuo Hanchen, the rest were Nobles, and there were both men and women, so it was a case of birds of a feather flocking together.

Lü Luyu made a smug face at Xia Chujian.

Although she was sent to the mental hospital in Changliu County on Kanli Star for testing, with her family's status, the test results were of course "all normal."

How could she be kept locked up there forever? So she returned to the base in time to catch up with this military operation.

What a joke, the main purpose of her coming here for training was for this military operation!

Seeing that the two groups had already been formed, the remaining two girls had to team up with the remaining eight boys separately.

Only in this way could the requirements be met.

Chief Instructor Pei waited until they had all formed teams before announcing the next arrangements.

"This time, the Military is dispatching four Starry Sky Cruisers, all Falcon-class, numbered D1, D235, D377, and D499. Each of your groups will get one."

"The navigators and pilots on the Starry Sky Cruisers are already assigned. You will select one person from your group to be the Captain and lead the entire operation."

"There are 20,000 Starry Sky Marines, coming from the five major Interstellar Fleets."

"Among them, the Fourth Interstellar Fleet only sent 500 people, who will join the 4,500 people from the Fifth Interstellar Fleet to form a team on the D1 Cruiser."

"The Second Interstellar Fleet has 5,000 Starry Sky Marines on the D235 Starry Sky Cruiser."

"The Third Interstellar Fleet has 5,000 Starry Sky Marines on the D377 Starry Sky Cruiser."

"The First Interstellar Fleet has 5,000 Starry Sky Marines on the D499 Starry Sky Cruiser."

"The first three Starry Sky Cruisers are older ships. The D499 Starry Sky Cruiser is a brand new ship, on its first mission, and will be assigned to the First Interstellar Fleet in the future."

"Therefore, this time it is carrying the 5,000 Starry Sky Marines from the First Interstellar Fleet."

As soon as Xia Chujian heard that the Fourth Interstellar Fleet had dispatched 500 Starry Sky Marines, she immediately thought of Sun Jiahao and Li Dali.

She immediately said, "Chief Instructor Pei, can we choose the D1 Starry Sky Cruiser?"

Chief Instructor Pei was about to nod when Lü Luyu suddenly said, "Why should you get D1? We want D1 too!"

Xia Chujian was not angry at all, and said with a smile, "Okay, then we'll take the D499 Cruiser!"

The Falcon-class D499 Starry Sky Cruiser was a brand new warship.

Regardless of the technical equipment or the years of use, it would be far superior to the other three older Starry Sky Cruisers.

Chu Qingchen immediately said, "First Lieutenant Xia, A-Lu is joking. How can we take what First Lieutenant Xia loves?"

"Besides, First Lieutenant Xia, your team is ranked first, so of course you should choose the D1 Starry Sky Cruiser."

Xia Chujian smiled even more happily: "Since we are ranked first, shouldn't we choose the best D499 Cruiser?"

Chu Qingchen: "..."

He was not good at arguing with people, and his face darkened slightly at this time, not knowing how to respond.

Zhuo Hanchen said in a deep voice, "First Lieutenant Xia's team has the best results and the strongest combat power, so they can complete the mission even without relying on the Starry Sky Cruiser."

"So let's not waste resources. Let us have the D499 Starry Sky Cruiser."

"Our team has the worst results and our combat power is not as good as yours."

"If the equipment is also poor, First Lieutenant Xia, don't you want us to come back alive?"

Xia Chujian raised her eyebrows.

After Zhuo Hanchen was exposed as no longer being a Noble, he became much more stable.

His retorts were also quite decent.

Xia Chujian could actually retort back.

But since he had brought up the issue of life and death, retorting further would be a bit too aggressive.

Xia Chujian smiled slightly and said, "Second Lieutenant Zhuo is very calculating."

"Although we are ranked first, we chose the worst D1 Starry Sky Cruiser, which is the oldest one, so the gap is evened out, right?"

"Everyone is on the same starting line, so Second Lieutenant Zhuo, don't say we won unfairly!"

This is the first update, the second update will be at one o'clock in the afternoon.
