Chapter 8 Day 1

Cheng Zhen was woken up early in the morning by the notification tone of the communication.

He reluctantly opened his eyes, and saw the blue light of the Suguang watch placed in front of the bed, which was a reminder of a letter.

Opening the newly received message, a face full of vitality appeared in front of Cheng Zhen.

"I knew you could do it!"

In the holographic image, Misaki said excitedly. "Do you know that after yesterday's speech, you are so popular that the whole academy knows your name. There are also some seniors who are inquiring about you!"

Misaki spoke excitedly, as if he himself was being so focused.

"Misaqi..." Cheng Zhen interrupted the excited and irrepressible friend. "Do you know what time it is?"

"Huh? What time? Oh, there's still one hour before class time, so it's getting late." Misaqi rubbed his head, looked at Cheng Zhen who was expressionless, and had a vague premonition in his heart.

"Yes, there is still one hour." Cheng Zhen unexpectedly smiled when he emphasized the pronunciation of the word "and". "So you shouldn't have woken me up."

Looking at the black-haired boy's smile, the fearless Misaki retreated inexplicably.

"Then you... continue to sleep?" He asked tentatively.

"Okay, thank you." Continue to smile, and then quickly cut off the communication in the next second.

With a loud noise, the Suguang watch was thrown to the farthest corner of the room, and at the same time the boy buried his head deeply in the quilt and continued to catch up on sleep.

45 minutes later, Misaqi received a reply from Cheng Zhen.

"Sorry." In the holographic image, the boy's slightly apologetic smile was somewhat distorted. "I should warn you not to look for me in the morning."

"I really want to ask." Looking at Cheng Zhen's expression now, Mi Saqi still felt a little uneasy. "What happened to you in the morning, it's not like you."

Thinking of Cheng Zhen when his sleep was interrupted, Mi Saqi felt a little horrified.That expression, like a beast that has been awakened from a sound sleep, is not at all like the usual Cheng Zhen.

Misaqi is very clear that this friend he just met is not a simple person.But in comparison, the usual Cheng Zhen is like a beast with its claws and fangs put away, making people less fearful and defensive.

But Cheng Zhen in the morning was a beast that fully showed its killing intent, which made people shudder.

"How should I say it?" Cheng Zhen frowned slightly distressed.

"Let's put it this way, if I don't get enough sleep, my self-control will decrease. At that time, I don't seem to be suitable for contacting people." Cheng Zhen is actually very aware of his problems, and summed it up with a word from the [-]th century—— — Get up angry.

Yes, get up gas.This is a problem left over from the previous life, but it seems to be more serious after rebirth.

Every member of the Cheng family knows that they must never go to Cheng Zhen in the early morning.This is an unspoken rule that is close to family training, and even the youngest siblings know how to follow it.

Of course, there is no need to worry that Cheng Zhen will be late because he overslept.Miraculously, this big demon who wakes up wakes up half an hour earlier every time.

"Okay." Reluctantly accepted this explanation, or the shadow of Cheng Zhen that he saw in the morning was still lingering in his heart, making Mi Saqi dare not ask more.

The future high-achieving intelligence student obviously changed the topic. "After class today, come to me. I have someone I want to introduce to you."

Fearing that Cheng Zhen would not be interested, he added it. "It's a human, a newborn."

The last two words aroused the interest of the black-haired boy, and he raised his eyebrows. "Okay, I'll find you after class."

After speaking, hang up the communication.

Cheng Zhen raised his head. He had already walked downstairs to the first-year classroom of the Mecha Department.Facing the scrutinizing eyes of the people around him, he walked into one of the classrooms.

The classrooms of the Mecha Department are very different from other departments, there are no neat rows of desks and chairs inside.It's just that there are chairs arranged in a circle on both sides of the huge classroom.

The middle of the entire classroom was vacated, and a huge blue light screen was placed on the ground, with a control position on the left and right ends.

Cheng Zhen is very familiar with this set of facilities. This is a virtual device for online battles. He has been in contact with it frequently when he was still in the [-]th district.The only difference is that this virtual device is specially made and can only be connected to the intranet of the college, and it is also equipped with an external playback function.

The two sides in the battle can operate the virtual mecha at the control position, and other people watching can clearly see their battle.

Walking into the classroom, most of the people have already come.Cheng Zhen looked around, feeling a little disappointed that he didn't see a single member of his family.The only two acquaintances were the two Botutans who lived together in Baiguan.

There were still 5 minutes before the official class, Cheng Zhen found a seat and sat down.In the following time, people came one after another, but no one chose the seat next to him.

Some people even looked for distance and ran to the crowded corners to squeeze.

Looking at the inexplicably vacant seat beside him, Cheng Zhenwei frowned invisibly.What gave him a little comfort was that no one dared to sit beside the two golden clan Bertutans.Regardless of the reason, at least I am not the only one to be ignored, or excluded?

Before he could think about it, there was a burst of nimble footsteps.Accompanied by the sound of footsteps, the teacher of the first class of the Mecha Department appeared in front of everyone.

Unexpectedly, the person who came was a woman, someone Cheng Zhen knew—the third-year chief Xialis.

The female chief with a cold and sharp personality glanced at everyone in the classroom, taking in all the surprise in the freshmen's eyes.

With a sneer, Siares walked into the open space in the middle.

"Perhaps many of you are surprised why a third-year student came to help you with your first class." The silver and black uniform on her body well indicated her identity.Shiaris continued without giving everyone any time to wonder.

"That's because you are not qualified enough." As always, Xialis said coldly. "For you freshmen, it's just a waste of resources to let formal mecha fighters teach you basic knowledge. Therefore, the college decided that a few mecha department students in the third grade will give basic tutoring to freshmen. Let me say here, only Only those who pass the test with me and pass the assessment are eligible for the next step of study. Otherwise, the door of Clems College will be closed to him again."

"Next, you must answer my questions truthfully." Seeing that Ma Wei had done enough, Siares began to ask questions.

"Is there anyone who has never touched a mecha?"

All of a sudden, there was no sound in the classroom.As a student of the mecha department, but has never actually operated a mecha, it is undoubtedly a very embarrassing thing.Most of the mecha trainees are carefully cultivated talents in their respective races, and they have already carried out the most basic mecha training.

The few remaining people who had no contact with them did not dare to speak easily in this silent atmosphere.

Seeing that no one dared to speak, Shiaris was about to get angry when she heard an unexpected person speak.

"Me." Cheng Zhen didn't shy away from it, with a calm expression on his face. "So far, there has been no practical mech operation."

Seeing that the person who spoke was Cheng Zhen, Shiaris couldn't hide her surprise, not to mention the others, and many even laughed in a low voice.The only people who are not surprised are probably only Leiber and Biyas who have known about it for a long time.

Cheng Zhen turned a blind eye to the emotions of the people around him, and his expression was normal.For those harsh ridicules, he just sneered back in his heart.

Only defeating these people with actions is the best way to shut them up.

The unmoved expression of the human youth made those who wanted to make fun of it feel bored, and gradually faded away.

"Why?" Shiaris asked with a frown.

If you haven't practiced it, you will undoubtedly lag behind others.No matter how real the virtual cabin is, it is incomparable with the real mecha.She originally admired this human boy, but now hearing what he said, she couldn't help feeling a little suspicious.

"Perhaps you don't know about the seniors who were born in the golden family." Cheng Zhen smiled back. "For human beings, not every family can afford the huge expenditure of mecha training. This is my reason."

What he said was clear enough. The Cheng family, which had four children, had no spare energy for him to train in mechas. Even going to a venue to rent mechas for training was a luxury.

"Not only is he a big talker, he's also a poor ghost." Someone satirized softly, the voice was not loud enough for the whole classroom to hear.

Leiber heard the words and glanced at the talkative man.Stared at by metallic pupils, the man was puzzled, but he didn't dare to say any more.

After listening to Cheng Zhen's explanation, Siares' expression eased a lot.She asked the other freshmen again. "Apart from Cheng Zhen, is there anyone else who has never touched a mecha?"

This time, no one answered.

The female chief of the Golden Clan sneered in her heart. She had obtained the college materials before. Although she couldn't get the specific list due to the principle of confidentiality, she probably knew that there were at least seven or eight people who had never practiced mechas.

However, these people seemed to be trying to hide their shortcomings, but none of them dared to admit it.

madness.Shialis groaned in her heart, and gave up this opportunity for the sake of the so-called face for a while.It won't be long before you realize what you're missing!

Don't want to wait any longer for those who would rather be cowardly and hide themselves than be honest.Siares turned to the black-haired boy.

"Cheng Zhen, you can leave the classroom now."

Everyone was shocked when they heard the words, but they heard her next sentence. "Go to the mecha training hall in the next area, there will be someone teaching you the initial operation of the mecha. Others, in groups of two, prepare for a virtual battle."

"Yes, senior."

Cheng Zhen replied humbly, leaving behind those eyes with different emotions behind him, and walked out of the classroom door.

However, in a place where no one was around, the boy raised the corners of his mouth slightly.

He knew that he had obtained a very precious opportunity.
