Shadow of Deep Space

Chapter 53: Full of ugliness

"The hidden manual switch of the emergency exit can be opened manually if there is any emergency before arriving at Diyan Star!"

While Su Ming was explaining, he suddenly discovered an unusual metal wall. He controlled the mecha and pressed it slightly.

Suddenly, a cover popped open on the metal wall, revealing a manual metal shutter.

"You even know this?"

Lin Chuyu looked at Su Ming with some surprise. You know, school doesn't teach these things.

"I usually understand!"

Su Ming was also a little fortunate that the owner of his original body was a military fan and he had read information in this area.

Although his brain wasn't very good, Su Ming's brain was very good, and he remembered it after he recalled it once.

"Hmph, there's no need to go through so much trouble. When necessary, the people in the command room will naturally open the exit."

Li Fubai also walked over controlling the mecha and said.

Su Ming glanced at Li Fubai and ignored him.

At this time, Zhao Ran and Chen Tong took their weapons, replenished their ammunition, and walked over slowly.

"Su Ming, we are here!"

"Well, we'll just wait here."

Su Ming said to the two of them.

At this moment, the entire spaceship was attacked again. It shook violently and the huge hull tilted sharply.

bang~
Zhao Ran and Chen Tong's mechas suddenly fell to the ground.

Su Ming input the command at an extremely fast speed and pulled the operating lever at the same time, and the entire mecha was stabilized with great difficulty.

However, Lin Chuyu on the side failed to stabilize the mecha, and the entire mecha fell towards Su Ming.

Seeing this, Su Ming quickly supported her mecha.

Lin Chuyu quickly readjusted the mecha to stand firmly and said with gratitude.

"Thank you."

"You're welcome."

Su Ming replied calmly.

"Chu Yu, please stand over here. I can support you."

Li Fubai took a deep breath, suppressed his displeasure, and spoke to Lin Chuyu with concern.

"No, I can do it myself."

Lin Chuyu rejected Li Fubai's kindness.

At this time, Zhao Ran and the other person got up from the ground in a mess, and they complained angrily.

"How on earth are those idiots in the cockpit controlling the spacecraft? Why is the spacecraft always getting hit?"

"I don't know, but it's best not to put your hopes on them."

At this moment, in the operation room, the students of the command department were extremely frightened and entered their own commands in a panic.

"Dodge to the left!"

"Why go to the left? It should be to the right!"

"Which idiot lowered the power output? We should just charge in all the way."

"Are you blind? Don't you see the red dots on the radar? And the enemy's attacks are everywhere on the optical display screen?"

"I can't bear to look at the optical screen images. They are too scary."

The students in the command department did not dare to look at the real-time situation outside.

At this moment, right in front of them, the empty universe suddenly began to ripple. Then the camouflage disappeared, and triangular crystals emerged one by one.

Behind the camouflage protection of these triangular crystals, there appeared a series of circular fortresses made of gray metal, and a large number of prismatic metal cubes emerged, forming a defense network.

Swish!
The circular fortress disintegrated instantly, releasing dense arrow-shaped XK-01 metal defense machines. Then the center of the prismatic metal cubes cracked in a cross shape and lit up!
Whoosh~
Countless light beams and suicide XK-01 metal defense aircraft fiercely attacked the Old Federation fleet.

Rumble~
One after another, the ships coming to support were blown up, and the most brilliant fireworks bloomed in the dark universe.

At this moment, a battleship with the number 135 painted on it swayed from side to side as if it was drunk, and was hit by a red beam of light on its bow!
boom!
The entire ship tilted towards Ship No. 134 flying next to it.

Inside the No. 134 ship's operating room, groups of command students were engaged in hand-to-hand combat, with their heads broken and bloody as they fought for command power.

At this moment, someone looked up inadvertently and saw the bow of a ship sailing next to them, burning with flames and heading towards them.

"Stop fighting! He's coming."

The students who were fighting each other were startled and looked up, with expressions of horror on their faces.

"Don't come over here! Don't!"

"I don't want to die!"

"what!"

Boom~
In an instant, the two ships collided and exploded. The wreckage and fragments produced by the explosion splashed everywhere and instantly hit the battleship where Su Ming was.

The entire battleship's surface armor was deformed over a large area.

The ship continued to shake violently, and some students who were helping with mecha maintenance and checking the ship's facilities fell directly from the operating tables.

slap~
With blood splattering, they fell to their deaths one after another.

"what!"

At this time, in each examination room, the indicator lights on the neural simulation cabins turned red.

"Ah~"

One by one, the students screamed in extreme fear.

The Imperial Court officer at the scene simply waved his hand indifferently and asked the waiting doctor to go forward and take the dead students away.

Inside the central control room of the Fish-Porpoise, the interstellar military airport in Sector 13.

General Arms looked at the real-time battle footage and the sunken ships one after another. His resolute face showed a complicated expression, and his eyes were even a little moist. Memories of the past kept coming to his mind.

These students were just experiencing the battle at that time, after all, it was just fake, but he really experienced that war.

Although a hundred years have passed, Arms is sometimes still awakened by nightmares in the dead of night, and often dreams of his dead companions, subordinates and superiors.

At this time, prompts keep popping up on the virtual screen.

"Ship No. 135 is destroyed."

"Ship No. 134 is destroyed."

Xia An looked at the red prompts one by one, and felt a little panicked. Every time a ship was destroyed, it meant that most of the students in the examination room were destroyed. Even if some students escaped using escape pods, they were very rare.

With so many eliminated students, they won’t be able to get many points.

Then Xia An's eyes fell on General Arms. She saw that Arms looked a little strange, so she spoke.

"General, should we lower the difficulty level so it won't be too ugly?"

"What's the point of lowering it? They should be thankful that this is just a mock exam. Otherwise, we would have to collect their bodies. It was really an ugly scene."

General Arms said coldly.

In fact, everyone's performance was recorded, especially the situation in each spacecraft's operating room.

Some of them are really eye-catching, arrogant and self-centered. Some students even directly perish together with other candidates, thinking that if I don’t do well in the exam, you can’t do well either.

They have no idea what responsibility, commitment and solidarity are.

Of course, there are also some who cooperate well and work together. But if you look closely, you will find that many of these people are students from various downtown areas.

"Yes."

Xia An replied with a slight sigh.
