back to Earth

Fortresses built in space can only have artificial light after all. Even in the daytime, it is nothing more than thousands of illuminators working at the same time.

However, compared to the cosmic life of other races, human beings are already much better.The phototaxis of the race makes it impossible for them to accept life regardless of day and night, so there will always be light during the day.I heard that in other parts of the universe, there is no difference between night and day, and it is always dark.

"I don't know what's going on with him now." The chestnut hair on the forehead was blown to the front of his eyes, and the boy reached out and brushed it behind his head.

Sitting by the window, you can see the training of other outdoor classes. Compared with the dull indoor class, the outdoor class seems to be more eye-catching, but the boy's mind is not outside the window.

He was just looking at the window, thinking about other things.

"Cheng Yu!"

A serious baritone thought of it, and the chestnut-haired boy froze for a while, only to realize that he was calling himself, and stood up quickly.

"Yes! Tutor!"

His slow reaction drew a few snickers from around him.

The tutor on the podium frowned, dissatisfied. "I don't care what kind of errands you are on, but you are not allowed to be distracted in my class. You can go out if you don't want to hear it! Understand!"

"Yes……"

Ah, how is it so unlucky to be discovered by this most difficult old man.Sighing in his heart, the boy could only stand and listen to the next lesson.

After finally getting out of class, after the cold-faced instructor left, all the friends around gathered here.

"Hey, Cheng Yu! You've been absent-minded recently, what's wrong?"

"It's okay." The boy shook his hand.

"Nonsense, there must be something wrong! Tell us, did you find a girlfriend! You bastard, how dare you do such a thing in silence!" The red-eyed friend was about to grab the chestnut-haired boy's neck , it is impossible for the young man not to resist.

While the two were busy fighting back, another person hurried in from the outside!

"Big news! Big news! This year's Klein battle is over!" The boy who ran in shouted loudly in the class.

All of a sudden, the attention of the whole class was diverted, and many people flocked to ask for news.

This kind of scene was rare in the past, and there were rarely enough events to attract everyone's attention.The previous battles of Klein had never caused such a big commotion, but this time it was different.

The Battle of Klein, where the human trainees and the human army participated again, is a matter of great concern in all places in the Human Alliance.Even this kind of public junior school began to pay attention to the Klein battle, which they had never heard of before.

Forgetting to push away the friend standing in front of him for a moment, the chestnut-haired boy held his breath and listened to the conversation of the people over there.

"The result! How was the result?! Which side won?"

"Where's the human army? Has it been defeated?"

"Well--" Hearing the inquiries from the people around him, the boy who delivered the message gave up. "The result of the Klein battle, of course—"

Everyone, including the boy with chestnut hair, listened with bated breath.

"Of course the emperor-level troops won."

"cut--"

"It's not in vain to talk about it for a long time."

Seeing the disappointed expressions of the people around him, the boy quickly added. "Hey, although we lost! But I heard that the human army performed well in this war, which is also a surprise."

The topic over there was still going on, but the chestnut-haired boy had come to his senses, and looked out the window sullenly.

"If you ask me, it's normal to lose. In the previous battles of Klein, the Allied Forces were mostly defeated. What's more, this time the United Front Commander is the opponent. It is even more impossible to win." People around were also discussing Hearing this question, the boy with chestnut hair became more and more annoyed the more he listened, and stood up from the table at once.

"Hey? Cheng Yu! Where are you going?"

A friend's suspicious voice came from behind.

"Go home." Pushing open the door, the boy walked out.

"Go home? But there are two classes left! Are you going to skip class?!"

People had gone far away, and the young man who put his voice behind him walked out of the teaching building without thinking, avoiding the guards and escaping by climbing over the wall next to him.Skillful and neat movements, it can be seen that this is not the first time he has done this.

Walking down the street in silence, the chestnut-haired boy cursed lowly from time to time.

"Stupid old man!"

Not in the mood to ride in the car, he planned to walk home alone. After calculating the time, it would be the end of get out of class when he got home, so his family would not suspect him of skipping class.

Walking all the way, I still couldn't stop thinking about the incident just now.

"Ayu! I was recommended by the teacher to participate in the Battle of Klein just now. Do you know what this is? It seems very familiar."

The first time the idiot brother sent this text message, Cheng Yu spent more than half a month secretly searching for news about the Klein Battle, and after finally finding out, he received another message from there Second message.

"I have decided to participate. Maybe the process will not be smooth, but I hope that after working hard, I can get a different result. Ah Yu, cheer for me!"

This was the first time Cheng Yu was convinced that his elder brother would participate in the Klein War this time, and after he understood the meaning of this war, he couldn't help worrying about the other party while being surprised.Maybe others don't know, but as a brother of similar age, he knows it all too well.

This big brother who seems to be calm and doesn't need others to worry about, actually has some places where he is extremely confused and fragile.Normally, as the deputy, Cheng Yu is always used to filling in for his elder brother behind his back, in order to establish a perfect and reliable big brother image in the hearts of younger siblings.

But who knows, even such an elder brother has his own weaknesses.

Although they have more perseverance and confidence than others, such a person who is indomitable and does not know how to retreat will suffer greater damage when encountering setbacks.

Thinking of this, Cheng Yu couldn't help but sighed lightly.How would the elder brother who participated in the Battle of Klein with hope and joy be in his mood now?Even if he pretended to be okay in front of outsiders, he would actually feel uncomfortable.

"Really! Why not a year later!" Cheng Yu couldn't help complaining.Although he is not a mecha department, he is already a junior college graduate and is preparing to apply for the top ten colleges.

If a year later, after I was admitted to the top ten academies, I would be able to help if I joined the battle with my eldest brother!Instead of passively receiving news from the battlefield in the distant human alliance like now.

Cheng Yu thought so.As for whether he can be admitted to the top ten colleges, and whether he can be allowed to participate in the Klein battle after admission, these are completely out of his concern, and everything seems to be taken for granted.

It can only be said that the second son of the Cheng family seems to have more confidence in himself than the elder brother.

"It's not a good habit to be in a daze while walking on the road."

Just as he was thinking about it, the chestnut-haired boy suddenly heard a voice coming from very close.

He looked up and couldn't help but froze for a moment.Before I knew it, I had already reached the door of the house.And a golden clan with blond hair and dark golden eyes was standing in the courtyard of his family, leaning against the fence very leisurely.

Bertutan?Cheng Yu was taken aback for a moment, then suddenly, as if remembering something, he quickly ran across the yard and into the house.

The ignored Botutans froze at the door, watching the back of the boy entering the house, and sighed helplessly. "Aren't creatures called younger brothers all so difficult to get along with?"

"elder brother!"

Cheng Zhen, who was packing his luggage in his own room, heard a familiar voice calling, raised his head, and saw his second brother standing at the door.

"Ah Yu!" With a happy smile on the corner of his mouth, Cheng Zhen walked over and hugged his brother vigorously. "Long time no see, you've grown a lot taller!"

Cheng Yu, who was slightly shorter than him, is almost as tall as him now.Looking at the tall and straight younger brother with a handsome face in front of him, Cheng Zhen suddenly felt the melancholy feeling of a child in my family who had just grown up.

"Please! I will always grow taller during puberty!" After finally breaking free from his elder brother's arms, Cheng Yu frowned when he saw that Cheng Zhen's luggage was almost packed in Cheng Zhen's house. "You're packing your bags and you're not coming back from vacation?"

It stands to reason that after the Klein War, Cheng Zhen, who also ended the first half of the semester, would return home for vacation.Why are you packing your luggage now?It looked like he was going on vacation somewhere.Thinking of the Botutan man at the door, Cheng Yu frowned again.

"Ah, this." When mentioning this matter, Cheng Zhen also seemed a little embarrassed. "I'm afraid I won't be able to be at home this holiday."

"Where?"

"..." Cheng Zhen faltered, as if he didn't want to say anything.

However, Cheng Yu said exactly what he said. "Is it related to the Golden Clan?" Ever since he saw the Botutan outside the door, he had a bad feeling.

Looking at the second younger brother with sharp eyes, Cheng Zhen, who knew he couldn't hide it, could only sigh and explain the matter from the beginning.

"So, in order to make a bet, you have to go to that Rhine?!" After hearing the truth of the matter, Cheng Yu raised his brows obviously displeased.In his opinion, this is simply a pre-designed trap, just waiting for Cheng Zhen to fall into the trap.And Rhine Bertutan, who designed this trap, must have had bad intentions, and he was a hundred thousand worried about letting Cheng Yu let his elder brother go to that person.

"Actually, your Excellency, he is not that unpopular." Seeing the obvious dissatisfaction of the second brother, Cheng Zhen couldn't help explaining. "It's just a vacation, where they will help me train. For me, this is a rare opportunity. After all, it is not easy to get the personal guidance of the emperor, is it?"

Cheng Yu remained silent. Indeed, for his elder brother who is a mecha pilot, contacting and receiving training from high-level mecha pilots can improve his own abilities.However, this feeling of handing over his brother to someone else made him very uncomfortable.He was sure that this so-called United Front Commander must have other ideas!

However, Cheng Yu also knew that his elder brother, who had already made up his mind, was so stubborn that ten bulls couldn't pull him back.Therefore, he could only watch Cheng Zhen continue to pack his luggage.After a long time, he said a word.

"Next year, I'm also going to Clemson College."

Looking up at Cheng Yu who said this, Cheng Zhen smiled slightly. "I'm waiting for you."

Talk about the long absence with parents, siblings, and leave again soon.However, at this time, Cheng Zhen was not as sentimental as the first parting.

Because he understands that parting is not long-term, this short-term separation is just to better protect his family and his loved ones.

"Your brother's eyes are really not to be underestimated." Reaching out to help Cheng Zhen take the luggage, Shadow Captain Randall smiled wryly. "Since we met, it seems like I'm going to eat me alive."

Regarding the resentment that his brother was taken away by someone after finally having a vacation, Cheng Yu naturally vented all his resentment on the only Botutan in front of him, and his sharp gaze never left Randall.

Cheng Zhen turned around to look, and smiled. "That's just Ayu's way of showing friendliness."

"I can't bear this kind of friendship." Randall murmured in a low voice. "Brother control is even more difficult to deal with than brother control..."

"Well? What did you say?"

"It's nothing, I just suddenly discovered that it seems that I can understand the former Lord Rhine."

Unlike the first time he left the No.18 area of ​​the Human Alliance, Cheng Zhen left this time on a special ship of the Bertutan tribe.Because where he is going, there is no such route in the air station of any race in the universe.

The secret base of Rhine Bertutan and his troops.This is a secret territory that has never been disclosed to outsiders.

Before getting on the special ship, Randall turned to look at Cheng Zhen, and said with a mysterious smile.

"Before you embark on this journey, you must be prepared."

"I'm ready." Thinking that he was talking about hard training in the future, Cheng Zhen said calmly, and then stepped onto the ship.

Randall shook his head secretly, looked at the defenseless figure of the black-haired boy, and chuckled lightly.

"Once you enter Lord Rhine's exclusive domain, it is not so easy to escape from him."

Cheng Zhen, who was walking in front, did not hear this sentence.If he could predict the future results at this time, would he still set foot on this ship?

However, there are no ifs in the world.
