Chapter 225: Chapter 225: Club (One More Update)

"Let’s forget about the large mech slots; the cost-effectiveness is too low."

Lin Chuyu shook her head and spoke to Lin Fang.

"I think so too; Lin Fang, can you recommend a more suitable slot for us?"

Su Ming earnestly requested.

"Alright, follow me!"

Lin Fang said with a smile and a wave of his hand, leading Su Ming forward.

Su Ming and his two companions followed Lin Fang, and soon they arrived at three independent small mecha garages located near the K3 exit.

Lin Fang introduced them to Su Ming and his companions.

"These three small garages are adjacent and close to the K3 exit, offering decent privacy. They are quite suitable for you."

"Great!"

Su Ming and his companions agreed without hesitation.

Su Ming chose the garage closest to the exit, while Lin Chuyu picked the one in the middle. As for An Ruoxue, she wasn’t picky and simply chose the last garage.

"Let’s go handle the lease now. There’s no deposit required here, but the minimum lease is one year!"

Lin Fang led Su Ming and his companions while explaining as they walked out.

Su Ming felt a bit of a headache when he heard about the one-year minimum since he only had three thousand Federation credits in his account. He had thought about renting for just a month and then renewing if he had the money, but that seemed impossible now.

Thus, Su Ming took a slight breath and awkwardly said to Lin Chuyu,

"Chuyu, could you lend me ten thousand Federation credits?"

"Sure."

Lin Chuyu was slightly surprised by Su Ming’s request, but she immediately responded.

"Thanks, I will pay you back as soon as possible."

"No need to return it, it’s fine."

"No, I must keep things proper."

Su Ming shook his head in response.

At that moment, An Ruoxue joked with a chuckle,

"Ah, Su Ming, you really are a blockhead. Chuyu already said you don’t have to return it, and yet you insist on doing so."

"Ruoxue, stop joking around."

Lin Chuyu said with a slight blush on her cheeks.

As they left the garage, a piercing alarm sounded throughout the area.

Beep~

At this moment, a staff member responsible for garage management hurried over and shouted at the many students present,

"Everyone, please make way! Clear the area around the garage exits!"

...

Seeing this, Lin Fang quickly said to Su Ming and his companions,

"Let’s walk to the side."

Although very puzzled, Su Ming and his friends complied.

Just then, at the distant intersection, buses stopped, and students wearing different styles of exoskeleton armor hurried off and ran towards them.

"Why are there so many senior students?"

"What’s going on?"

"Wait, these seniors look familiar. I remember now, they are from the Dark Spirit Club."

"Have they accepted a major mission?"

"Yes, I heard that the situation at the Federation border is getting tense. The Dark Spirit Club must have accepted a group mission and is preparing to head to the border for support."

....

Su Ming listened to the discussions of the students around him and watched as these seniors rushed into the garages.

It wasn’t long before hundreds of Second Generation Mechas and three Third Generation Mechas burst out of the garages.

Just then, a massive roaring noise came from the sky!

Su Ming and the others were startled and looked up, instantly seeing a three-tier battleship, 10 kilometers long and covered in red armor, rip through the clouds and enter their field of vision.

At that moment, members of the Dark Spirit Club, controlling their mechas, activated their jet wings and leapt toward the battleship in the sky.

Swish, swish!

At that moment, the battleship opened several entry ports, and one Mecha after another flew in agilely.

Soon after, the battleship regained altitude, piercing through the clouds and departing.

"Ah, I’m so envious. When will we be able to take on missions?"

"Come on, stop envying! You’re just a freshman, what’s the excitement about? Only sophomores and seniors usually take on missions."

...

Students around were endlessly discussing the departing ship.

Su Ming, listening to everyone’s discussion, consequently turned to Lin Fang to inquire.

"Lin Fang, can freshmen not participate in these kinds of missions?"

"Normally they can’t, but it’s not entirely impossible. First, you need to have decent strength, and second, your grades must be excellent, and you also need to ask for leave from the teachers. But even with all that, it’s not guaranteed you’ll get a mission unless you have a good club."

Lin Fang explained to Su Ming.

"A club? I’ve heard you mention that before."

Su Ming asked thoughtfully.

"Clubs, in short, are small groups formed by students. Joining a club gets you access to internal resources, and you can also take on group missions to earn money. Plus, when you’re in trouble, you can seek help from the club. It’s worth noting that many of the stronger clubs have their own private armed forces."

"That sounds rather good."

"It is good, but the better the club, the more stringent the recruitment. I applied to several clubs but got rejected by them all."

Lin Fang said in the end, his expression full of wry smiles.

"Lin Fang is right."

Lin Chuyu and An Ruoxue nodded in agreement.

At that moment, Su Ming thoughtfully turned to Lin Chuyu and asked.

"Do you both belong to any clubs?"

"Yes, we both joined the Polar Star Club."

Lin Chuyu responded with a slight nod.

"You joined the Polar Star Club?"

Lin Fang looked at Lin Chuyu and An Ruoxue, his face filled with incredulity.

"Is this club very strong?"

Su Ming asked, somewhat interested.

"Of course, it’s currently ranked the third best club in the academy."

Lin Fang explained emphatically to Su Ming.

Just then, Lin Chuyu suddenly thought of something, turned around, and said to Su Ming,

"Su Ming, are you in need of money right now?"

"Yes, I just bought a Mecha, and I’m a bit tight on money."

"I have a way to make some money."

"What is it?"

Su Ming looked curiously at Lin Chuyu, knowing that money was hard to come by these days.

"It’s simple. I introduce you to our club, and I can receive an introduction fee, which I’ll then transfer to you."

Lin Chuyu said with a smile.

"Wait, didn’t Lin Fang just say that the better the club, the more stringent they are in recruiting members? How come there’s an introduction fee involved for you? The Polar Star Club must be very strong to be ranked third in the academy."

"Lin Fang is right, but that only applies to ordinary students. For students with strong capabilities and high reputation, it’s different. They need to be actively invited. You got the second prize in the tri-school competition, which totally qualifies you."

"That can be done?"

"Yes!"

"Alright then!"

After giving it some thought, Su Ming agreed. Not only could joining the club allow him to participate in group missions and enjoy various internal resources, but he could also get an introduction fee, which seemed quite beneficial.

"Whenever you’re free, I’ll take you to the club to register."

Lin Chuyu said, seeing Su Ming agreeing.

Su Ming took out his phone, checked his schedule, and then said to Lin Chuyu,

"How about tomorrow at five in the afternoon, after classes?"
