Lin Huiyin and Zhang Shan were the most elated. The other one who was relatively happier was Olivios. As for others, one couldn't see it from their expression as most of them didn't have any feeling of gratitude or resentment to Wang Zheng and wouldn't mind either way.
It was just that looking at the way Lin Huiyin's elated looks was, Hocatolin couldn't help but frown. Could there be a mistake in the rumours?
It wasn't Aina but her highness Huiyin?
No matter who it was, Wang Zheng did not have the qualifications to approach the royal family.
After Zhang Shan had left, he was jumping around like a little kid. Eisen and the rest was waiting outside the door for news.
"Wang Zheng had returned. Haha. I knew that this brat was lucky. How could he have died?!"
Zhang Shan roared as he waved his arms. Lear was in the crowd too. From his face, one couldn't see an expression. Luo Fei also didn't expect Wang Zheng to really return alive. He knew that the Abyss was a d*mned place and wasn't for ordinary people. If possible, he wouldn't want to go there in his next life. Yet, Wang Zheng was able to escape out of there alive.
"His soul really lingers around." said Lear bluntly.
The fatty's fat face tensed up and revealed a smile, " Boss, wouldn't this make things a little more interesting. Boss's Ares Art has improved tremendously. Without a green leaf like Wang Zheng, the colours of the red flower would seem blander."
Lear took a look at Luo Fei, " Your bootlicking skills have really improved. Forget it. Let it be."
Lear didn't feel much about it. Since achieving a breakthrough with his Ares Art and coupled with his foundation in Ability X, Wang Zheng was no longer his match. It didn't matter if he was dead or alive.
Wang Zheng had become a burden, Lie Xin could no longer follow the pace and Achilles had lost in battle. He had come out at the top. The news had spread to the Military of the Solar System. Together with his family's political personnel hyping it up, Lear had paved his influence in the military in the future well. This was something that others couldn't compete with him.
However for Wang Zheng to return to the Academy, he would have to first receive treatment and physical examination at the base camp in the Abyss. The competition was temporarily suspended. The mentors also had a lot of things to understand from Wang Zheng as Wang Zheng was probably the first one to return alive after entering the base camp of the Zerg. Even if it was just something he saw, it would be extremely valuable
Therefore Jiang Feng and the rest had rushed over.
Redington and Ma Guangyuan were also speechless. Wang Zheng was surprisingly not dead yet
"Redington, this Wang Zheng seemed to be in the same battle group as you. Technically speaking, he has also completed the trial. Moreover, he has completed more than what was required." laughed Ma Guangyuan.
"He is just lucky to still be alive." Redington smirked. If Wang Zheng wanted to join the tournament, he wouldn't mind making him a permanent resident in the hospital.
"It was a pity. I would probably not be able to be there to watch it live and can only see your bravery in the direct broadcast." laughed Ma Guanyuang.
"Oh, why?"
"Our representative group will be going back now. This competition has already been dragged on for a long time. Based on the current situation, it would probably be a few more days of delay before the matches would start and this would cause serious disruption to our following plans. However, it isn't an issue. Watching it through the broadcast is basically the same. I hope to see your victory at that time and hope you would be able to win the heart of your girl."
"Haha, brother Ma you are being too courteous. There is still a long time in the future and we will definitely have the opportunity to work together."
Over the past period of time, Redington had been getting along well with Ma Guangyuan. Both of them were similar. Moreover, Ma Guanyuan had already decided to stay in the Milky Way Military College. Without direct conflicts or competition, there were huge room for collaboration.
Redington was focusing all his attention on dealing with Hocatolin. Hocatolin had the Fire Ability while he had the Ice Ability. His Ability was the early stage of B Rank and so was Hocatolin. It was just that Hocatolin's mastery was slightly better and had more experience. However, Ice could counter Fire. As long as he could perform steadily, he had the chances of victory.
After a day, Wang Zheng had been transferred to Inner Roland. There were multiple abrasions around his body and also some muscle strains. However when compared to the things he had experienced, these wouldn't be considered injuries.
When Wang Zheng woke up, Jiang Feng, Butcher, Gail and Claudia were all around him. Beside them was a doctor.
"Student Wang Zheng, can you recognise me?" The doctor extended one finger.
Wang Zheng nodded and sat up suddenly. 'The thing, was the thing brought back?"
That was something that was more important than his life.
Jiang Feng immediately helped Wang Zheng up, " Calm down. That diary has been brought back. Wang Zheng, you have rendered meritorious service!"
"Student Wang Zheng, all the things you have done would be recorded down in the history of humans. That diary was priceless information for us!"
Claudia said seriously. They had only briefly read through the things inside and it was truly priceless treasure. It had recorded many things about the Zerg and their behaviour.
Gail and Butcher were also full of praise for Wang Zheng. This kid truly deserved to be a member of the Universe Genesis Coffee Club!
It was then Wang Zheng had relaxed his body. His eyes turned dull and said, " This was all the work of senior Li Yizhuo. What I did was not worth mentioning."
When he thought of the composed look Old Zhuo had when he was on his way to death, Wang Zheng really felt that what he did was nothing significant.
"Wang Zheng. Tell us about the situation at that time. How did you meet Major General Li Yizhuo and how did you get out?" Jiang Feng said with a serious tone.
Wang Zheng calmed his emotions down and explained the situation once. After completing his explanation, the whole room quietened down.
As a soldier, Jiang Feng and Claudia were giving a solemn salute. Undoubtedly, this was a true hero.
"Wang Zheng, Major General Li Yizhuo's sacrifice wouldn't be in vain. His diary would save countless warriors' life." said Jiang Feng.
"Major General Li Yizhuo was an outstanding representative from our Milky Way Military College. He was the record holder for the youngest Captain of a space ship and was responsible for an important mission when he went missing. I hadn't expected that he was able to complete his mission in the end." Claudia was also feeling emotional. That plan was initially considered to be a complete failure as it had sent the elites of the Academy to death. The Academy had also paid a high price of it. At that time, the Academy was under a lot of pressure but Li Yizhuo had salvaged their glory.
"Kid, you aren't too bad. The process of your return was also a very valuable experience for us. It was especially so for the understanding of the abyss. It was a pity that there isn't a living specimen." said Butcher. He wished he could build a lab in that place and it wouldn't matter if he couldn't escape from there.
Wang Zheng suddenly remembered something."Various professors, since you all know about senior Li Yizhuo, you all would definitely know about his daughter. I wanted to thank her personally. It was her father who saved me!"
That was the only dying wish of Li Yizhuo. As long as he was alive, he would definitely take good care of her.
The room was silent again. Wang Zheng sat up straight and continued, " Oh ya, Senior Li was from the Hail Cloud Alliance..." Wang Zheng had the premonition that she might be Snow Li. Truthfully speaking, he didn't know how to face her, but he couldn't hide from it.
Claudia sighed gently and said, " Wang Zheng... the truth was, Major General Li Yizhuo wasn't married and didn't have any child."
Wang Zheng was stunned."This was impossible. He had a family picture and it should be in his diary. Please look for it. We must definitely find it!"
Even Gail, who was always loud, felt helpless."Wang Zheng..."
Jiang Feng took the photo out."We probably can't give you the diary but you can keep this photograph."
Wang Zheng took over the photograph. On it was a large group photo. The words on it were "Galaxy Space Fleet T-18945, Live and Die together!"
In the middle of the photograph was Li Yizhuo.
To live and die together...
Wang Zheng gritted his teeth and lean on the bed helpless. He couldn't hold back his tears as they blurred his eyes.
Jiang Feng patted on Wang Zheng and signaled for the rest to leave
Everyone didn't know why Li Yizhuo would say that. It might be his delusion after being alone for a long time so that he would have a reason to continue living. It might also be because he wanted Wang Zheng to feel attached so that he wouldn't act rashly. Li Yizhuo had done everything he could.
As for him, all he wanted was to die and live together with his comrades, with his brothers.
Lin Huiyin was just outside the door. Her eyes were red and clearly had cried. She had special rights no matter where she was. Under her strong requests, even Jiang Feng had no choice.
"Professor Jiang Feng, could I go in to take a look?" Huiyin said softly.
The few mentors looked at one another. Jiang Feng nodded his head helplessly."Yes you may but now won't be a good time. He needs some time to be alone."
Lin Huiyin nodded her head immediately."Angela you can go back. I will just stay here myself."
Jiang Feng and the rest had left. They still had too many things to settle. Moreover, they weren't gossipy people and weren't interested in such things.
Wang Zheng's records would also have this huge contribution. Although he felt that he didn't really done anything, considering the fact that he had brought the diary out and had made the correct judgment on the rubbish Zerg, he had made a great contribution that wouldn't be inferior to achieving victory in any major battle.
The school would naturally report everything upwards. Obviously, everything that Li Yizhuo had done would be etched in the minds of all soldiers. He would also be one of the most brilliant students of the Milky Way Military College.
Huiyin stood outside the door alone and was observing Wang Zheng quietly through the observation glass. She held her small hands tightly together.
Outside the place, Jiang Feng was also sending Claudia off with handshakes.
"Professor Jiang Feng, we have really gotten a lot from this trip. The students of the Elite Academy had really lived up to their name. I looked forward to the collaboration of our 2 major Academies."
"Professor Claudia, you have over-complimented us. This was from our shared hard work and dreams. As a warrior, dying on the battlefield is also a form of honour." said Jiang Feng.
The Li Yizhuo incident had truly shocked the. Jiang Feng was also impressed from the bottom of his heart. Originally, the two major Academies had some competitive sparks between them. However, competition was only for raising each other's standards.
Claudia was leaving with their representative group. Aina and Meng Tian were also on the fleet. The two of them had received news that Wang Zheng was fine.
Meng Tian liked Wang Zheng but she knew that Wang Zheng at most had good feelings towards her and that wasn't love. Knowing that Wang Zheng was fine was enough for her. After choosing the path of a soldier, it would only be a matter of time to experience such a day.
Aina was at the observation platform at the other side. She was looking at the starry region. No one knew what she was thinking...
In the patient's ward, fatigue, sadness and other complicated feelings overwhelmed Wang Zheng. He had already lost consciousness. Beside him, Lin Huiyin was holding onto Wang Zheng's hands and fallen asleep by the bed. Since she knew Wang Zheng was caught in the accident, Huiyin had never slept well. The cute princess was even drooling... She probably had dreamt about eating something nice...
