Chapter 176 I’m full~
Chapter 176: 176 I’m full~
Ji You was holding a rich breakfast and glanced around only to see a vast crowd of people, hardly spotting an empty seat. She was pondering whether to eat her breakfast back at the dorm or just stand and finish eating.
Suddenly—
She heard someone shout: "Ji You, there is an empty seat here."
Ji You looked up and saw that it was Lou. She cracked a smile and said to him, "Lou, you really are a good-hearted guy."
Lou scratched his head, feeling somewhat embarrassed.
Ji You put down her tray and took a look:
Wow~
At this table, all familiar faces: Shen Changqing, Chu Jiaojiao, Yue Qiguang, Yue Qiyuan, Lance...
The scene seemed so familiar.
Ji You sat down, smiling: "Hello, everyone."
Everyone greeted Ji You in return, and Chu Jiaojiao immediately leaned over with a cheeky face, saying, "Ji You, you still look the most beautiful in all of Lanyue Star today."
Ji You: "..."
She was immune to such gratuitous flattery after hearing it too many times.
After a moment’s thought, Ji You modestly smiled and said, "I hope that one day, even if I turn into a pig head, I can still hear you say the same."
Upon hearing this, Chu Jiaojiao seemed to recall some tragic event and shook her head vigorously, saying, "Ji You, please promise me you’ll take good care of that face. Your face is indeed my spiritual sustenance."
Ji You: "..."
Defeated.
Defeated.
Defeated.
She bowed her head and started eating breakfast. With delicious food in front of her, why bother with such unreasonable fangirls?
Humph...
Everyone else remained silent, busily eating their food.
Today, the Combat Department had classes, and according to Teacher Mu Jianling from last lesson, today’s schedule included physical fitness training in the morning and mecha operation in the afternoon. Ji You felt her physical fitness had improved after some time of training, but it was still far from sufficient. Due to her limited physical fitness, she could drive the simplified mech without feeling awkward, but she couldn’t sustain it for long periods due to physical limitations.
It looked like her maximum driving time was one hour. After an hour, she would feel too weak to continue and had to leave the cockpit to rest.
Sigh~
She had many weaknesses, and the road ahead was long.
At that moment, Yue Qiguang, munching on a meat bun, glanced and saw Ji You’s breakfast was quite lavish:
Fried dough sticks, soy milk, sesame seed cake, and even a long-legged chicken egg...
This luxury almost matched his own.
Yue Qiguang joked, "Number 4444, did you strike it rich? Why the luxury today?"
Ji You glanced at him dismissively and retorted, "Can’t a poor ghost have a rich breakfast? Who made that rule?"
That—
The proud tone of being a poor ghost was just—
Yue Qiguang was choked by her words and said, "Die poor then."
Ji You curled her lip: "...Sorry, your wish might fail. I indeed became rich overnight! Hahaha..." Rich on various fronts! Whether it’s points or credit points...
Even though she lost 850 million, at least she earned 650 credit points.
Yue Qiguang looked skeptical: "How did you get rich overnight? Did you buy a lottery ticket?"
Talking about getting rich overnight, everyone became interested. Lou said, "Hey! Did you guys see the post on Star Network about looking for Lucky Goose? The odds are 50 times, imagine hitting that... it’s unthinkable."
Such high odds are really rare, they need the system to synthesize data from both competitors to confirm the huge disparity in their capabilities, and usually, the system’s data assessments are quite accurate.
A glint appeared in Lance’s eyes as he said, "Too bad... I missed it."
Yue Qiguang glanced at them and said rudely, "With your lack of insight, even if you watched the entire match, could you have guessed right? Impossible! Unless it’s this daddy going."
Lou thrust his neck out, "Yue Qiguang, how about we compete now?"
Lance also clenched his fists and said, "Count me in." Damn, this kid is asking for it!
Yue Qiguang said, "Even both of you together are no match for daddy."
Lou tapped the table and said, "Don’t be too sure of that."
Shen Changqing changed the subject and said, "Alright, let’s not argue about this, it’s meaningless. Let’s discuss tonight’s battle tactics." After all, aren’t we gathered here to talk about group battles?
Chu Jiaojiao also put down her chopsticks, squeezed her fists at Yue Qiguang, Lou, and Lance, and said, "Whoever keeps yapping, I won’t be able to control my fists."
The three of them: "..."
Violent woman, other than throwing punches, what else can she do?
They discussed the tactical issues for a good while.
Ji You silently sat on the side, burying her head in eating.
Yingyingying~
What else can she do if not eat? As someone too weak to join the team, all she could do was bitterly chew on her scallion pancake to alleviate her loneliness.
Suddenly—
Lance raised a question, "Have any of you encountered someone using an antique mech in single-player matches?"
Everyone nodded.
Yue Qiguang said, "Daddy met 5 last night. But they were all weaklings."
Chu Jiaojiao said, "I encountered 2. Easily crushed."
Lou said, "I encountered 3. Easily handled."
Shen Changqing said, "I also came across one last night, not worth mentioning."
While everyone boasted about their achievements, only Yue Qiyuan kept quiet, like Ji You, he silently devoured food fervently like a starving ghost. He gulped down two mouthfuls of water and almost choked, while Ji You watched him with slight puzzlement.
Yue Qiyuan remained silent, looking down.
Actually, ever since that silly boss who self-destructed became famous, there have been quite a few imitators. Now, everyone had met contenders using antique mechs.
Lance asked his question, "What if, in a team match, we encounter a bomb ready to self-destruct? How should we deal with it?"
The group contemplated for a moment.
Shen Changqing spoke first, "Antique mechs are inherently disadvantaged. Facing such opponents, the strategy is simple, deny them any chance to strike, end the battle swiftly. The one I met last night was handled with this tactic, not letting her act or get close, full firepower, resolved in less than 20 seconds."
Ji You, while chewing on her pancake, suddenly paused.
Shen Changqing said nonchalantly, "If it’s a group battle and we meet such a situation, it’s even simpler, concentrate firepower, eliminate the opponent first."
Yue Qiguang unconcernedly said, "Only weaklings worry unnecessarily. As long as they’re not too stupid, no team would recruit such members. Fighting such enemies, I alone could handle ten or eight of them single-handedly."
"Heh~" Chu Jiaojiao said, "These days, who hasn’t killed one or two antique mechs? Don’t worry about it, if we really face such opponents, just hand them over to me."
Lou also said, "Right, as long as they’re not too dumb or too weak, killing antique mechs is truly thrilling. One move to finish, fast and efficient. It’s much more satisfying than those dragging battles."
Suddenly—
A crisp metallic sound suddenly echoed in everyone’s ears. Everyone looked up, frowning, and Yue Qiguang even shouted, "Yue Qiyuan, are you an idiot? Why would you bite your spoon in half?"
Yue Qiyuan’s face stiffened, and after a while, he said, "I’m full, I’m leaving."
