Shadow of Deep Space

Chapter 49: Battle of Earth Flame Star

He pressed the on button.

呲~
With a slight deflation sound, the transparent lid of the simulation cabin opened, revealing the equipment inside.

Su Ming was slightly stunned. This simulation cabin was indeed completely different from the one in school.

There is only a semi-reclining chair inside, a helmet with a large number of integrated lines in the head area, and only a few mechanical buttons around the simulation cabin to adjust the reclining chair.

Su Ming took a deep breath and sat on it.

The lid of the simulation cabin closed automatically, and then the transparent lid in front of him suddenly turned into a holographic screen.

“Identification in progress”

"Identification successful: Candidate number 45712, name: Su Ming, gender: male, age: 18"

Su Ming looked at the information displayed with an incredible look in his eyes. There was something wrong with this simulation cabin. How could it be intelligent?

Before Su Ming could react, a message popped up on the virtual screen in front of him.

"There are still 120 seconds until the second exam begins. Please adjust your reclining chair to the most comfortable position."

Su Ming immediately made adjustments.

When he adjusted the position of the recliner, a prompt popped up on the virtual screen again.

"Fixture activated!"

Click~~
The reclining chair popped out the fixing buckle, firmly fixing Su Ming's body on the reclining chair. But it was not too tight, and it was still very comfortable overall.

Then a new prompt popped up on the virtual screen.

"Neural helmet, start wearing it, please relax your body and don't move your head."

Before Su Ming could react, the metal helmet was already on his head.

"Wearing successful, test countdown 47S, 46S"

The virtual screen continuously displays the countdown.

Su Ming looked at the ever-changing countdown and felt inexplicably excited.

The moment the countdown reaches zero.

Su Ming suddenly felt a weak electric current sweeping through his brain, and his consciousness suddenly went black. He felt as if he suddenly lost weight and fell into endless darkness.

The next second, Su Ming suddenly opened his eyes.

He appeared in a huge sealed space. The walls around him were made of high-strength, lightweight alloy, the surface was shining with a cold metallic luster, and the ground under his feet was made of thick steel.

The dazzling lights on the ceiling were on, and the air was filled with a mixed smell of engine oil and metal.

Su Ming was also stunned for a moment. How could he be here? And judging from the surroundings, this place looked like a transport cabin of a spaceship.

Before Su Ming could figure out what was going on.

shuh~
He saw familiar yet unfamiliar figures appearing out of thin air around him.

These figures are the candidates.

Su Ming even saw Chen Tong appearing not far in front of him.

Everyone looked surprised and chattered about it.

"where is this?"

"Wow, this is amazing, isn't it?"

"Am I dreaming? I pinched my face and it hurt."

"Fuck, this isn't a dream."

Su Ming tried pinching his arm and felt a clear pain. He was startled and felt a little dazed for a moment.

At this time Chen Tong walked up to Su Ming and said with a gloomy face.

"Su Ming, do you know what's going on now?"

"I'm not sure. I entered the simulation cabin and suddenly ended up here. But I'm sure we should be taking an exam."

Su Ming shook his head and replied.

"Now what?"

Chen Tong asked in a deep voice.

"Let's wait and see." Su Ming quickly suppressed his fluctuating heart and said calmly.

At this moment, the entire transport cabin suddenly shook violently, and everyone almost fell down.

At the same time, inside the transport cabin, an alarm device kept flashing red and making a harsh sound.

A tense atmosphere suddenly spread.

"What's going on?"

"What happened?"

"I don't know, but isn't that the sound of an alarm?"

"Why am I here? My minor subject is mechanical maintenance technician!"

"Don't complain. My minor is nursing and therapy."

All the candidates present were panicked.

Just when everyone was in panic, a solemn voice suddenly sounded from the radio.

"Hello, candidates. Let me introduce myself. I am Major General Arms of the Imperial Court Cult!"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone present opened their eyes wide and some even swore.

"Shit, did I hear you right, General?"

"What's going on? The general is the examiner?"

Arms ignored the shocked students and continued speaking in a deep voice.

"You must be very confused and lost about your situation now. Let me briefly tell you that you are now using the latest neural simulation cabin developed by the Federation, which can super-realistically feedback all feelings, including pain! So although you are in the virtual world now, it is no different from being in the real world, and your secondary subject exams are about to begin."

When Su Ming heard what Arms said, he took a deep breath. The Federation actually had such advanced technology!
In fact, the Federation has never given up research on intelligence, but Su Ming and his team simply cannot access it.

"Minor subject exam? How do you take it?"

"yes?"

Everyone at the scene asked in confusion.

At this time, General Arms said in a deep voice.

"Now I will begin the final instructions. Listen carefully, I will only say it once!"

Suddenly the noisy scene became quiet, and everyone pricked up their ears to listen, afraid of missing a single word.

"You can look around now. Can you see all the students in the same examination room?"

Arms reminded in a deep voice.

Su Ming looked around carefully. He saw Lin Chuyu, Li Fubai and others from afar. Then he lowered his voice and spoke to Chen Tong.

“All the students in our examination hall are gathered together.”

"MD, what on earth are these people trying to do?"

Chen Tong couldn't help but curse under his breath.

"Listen patiently."

Su Ming said to Chen Tong calmly.

"All of you candidates who are taking the same exam are now on the same spaceship. Among you, there are candidates from the mecha department, the command department, the maintenance department, and the land warfare department. In short, there are candidates from all departments! The core of this secondary exam is very simple, which is to control the spaceship you are on and participate in the epic battle - the battle of the Earth Flame Star!"

Arms announced passionately.

"Really? Let us participate in the battle on Earth Flame Star?"

"This, are you kidding?"

"General Arms was too reckless. Few people could survive that battle."

"Don't say that. Do you know who General Arms is?"

"Who?"

"This guy is the tough guy who survived the Battle of Earth Flame Star. I read an interview about him. When he participated in the Battle of Earth Flame Star, he was still an unknown second lieutenant! Now a hundred years have passed, and he is already a major general."

"Fuck, there is such a thing."
