Chapter 165
Thinking of this, the students of the First Military Academy dared not utter a sound because of Middleton, but their expressions were as if they had eaten shit, and sharp explosions were going off in their hearts.
From the time he could remember, there was not a single clod of earth in Erato except for ice and snow. Middleton seemed not to hear what the person behind him was saying, staring at the ground below, which had been buried under the thick ice and snow along with the Kerr Armored Scorpion, so buried that no matter how he looked at it, he could not see the slightest trace of the Spaceship.
With Qin Su's terrifying abilities—far surpassing even the 'voluntarily' modified humanoid weapons in a normal army—he could have easily filled the hole with the surrounding icebergs, yet he insisted on using the First Military Academy's Spaceship.
Middleton couldn't imagine any other possibility besides deliberate provocation.
Even the president can only apply to open a Special Rapid Jump Channel twice a day. He only represents the First Military Academy. How can he compare to the president?
If he were to perform two Special Channel Jumps in a row, even if the president didn't say anything, other factions wouldn't let him and the faction he was aligned with get away with it.
The Combat Suits on their bodies need to be recharged on the Spaceship or Warship to maintain operation. After the 'all-out' battle just now, the remaining energy on the Warship is definitely not enough to support the new Spaceship to Hyperspace Jump here.
To avoid freezing to death in this godforsaken place, they...
"Return to Jump Point."
Middleton coldly gave the order, and despite their reluctance, they had to move in the direction the Fourth Military Academy had left in.
He had no other choice.
This scene resembles a divorced couple forced to stay under the same roof for some terrible reason.
[For example, like being husband and wife?]
[Enough! I really don't have time to argue with you guys. Do you think this is appropriate to put here?]
Passing by the coordinates they arrived at, the place where Onion was buried, Middleton, the leader, stopped and glanced at his blood-stained arm inside his Combat Suit.
Middleton's eyes were dark and unreadable. He temporarily removed one arm from his Combat Suit, unwrapped the Regenerative Repair Fluid that had been soaked in the wound due to blood seeping out from the continuous movement, and let go.
Watching the blood-stained Medical Bandages fall, Middleton said softly, "Goodbye, my poor Onion."
During this time, in order to prevent exposed areas from being frostbitten due to the extreme low temperatures, Middleton used Pheromones to forcibly and temporarily enhance his physical condition.
This caused the First Military Academy students, who had just witnessed Middleton stopping at the spot where Onion died, to be filled with anxiety the next second, fearing that Middleton might have another dangerous idea, to fall into a painful and suppressed state, leaving them no time to think too much.
The painful state lasted less than a minute before they saw Middleton's arms being wrapped in his Combat Suit again. Then, the Pheromones that had been bothering them subsided, and Middleton's Warship set sail once more.
The man behind Middleton breathed a sigh of relief, then left with Middleton.
Fortunately, the number of people buried with Onion was sufficient to prevent Middleton from taking his anger out on the survivors on the Warship.
The Kerr Armored Scorpion has 'rested in peace,' the tearing of the ground has stopped, and the crimson blood and the pale limbs of the dead humans stand out starkly against the snow.
The students from the First Military Academy glanced at it a few more times, and were horrified. The soldiers, who were used to this, didn't even give it a second look, and no one picked it up.
The deceased's relatives and the butler who had come with Middleton felt sorry for him but dared not do anything.
'If Onion can't leave, how can anyone else?'
Not long after the First Military Academy students left, a heavy snow began to fall. Within ten minutes, the severed limbs and remains of the First Military Academy soldiers and students who had died along the way were covered and buried, eventually merging into one.
Apart from the occasional insect darting swiftly across the vast white snow, the world was completely silent, as if nothing had happened before.
--
Qin Su returned to the Jump Platform as quickly as possible, confiscating all the remaining 'tools of the crime' from the First Military Academy except for the Spaceship and storing them in his own Spaceship. Before the others returned, he retrieved all the Life Points spent on the Spaceships that were no longer needed to ensure his and his classmates' safety.
His Life Points has increased dramatically from the original 55 years to the current 106 years, and it is still rising.
This was well beyond his average lifespan as Earthling, and Qin Su, who was usually very stingy, was unusually generous.
Although Qin Su really wanted to see what kind of expression the people from the First Military Academy would have when they returned and found their 'home had been robbed' and looked at the 'empty house' of the Spaceship, unfortunately, after doing everything, there wasn't much of the three-minute King Time left. With the last second left to clean himself up, Qin Su lay down at the end of his personal Rest Pod, completely exhausted and immersed in a world of extreme fatigue.
His attempt to immerse himself in a state of oblivion lasted only a minute before his vigorous gossip-loving desire overcame his urge to rest. Qin Su used the Hibernation Pod's 'wake-up' function to repeatedly wake himself up, forcing himself to keep his eyes open and quietly waiting for Middleton to return to the First Military Academy's Spaceship.
He's not really going to die, so what's more important than gossip than sleeping?
--
Fourth Military Academy Class 6 returned to the Jump Point Platform and saw the empty sky above, they were first stunned, and then showed an expression of 'I knew it'.
"As it turns out, my earlier judgment was absolutely correct."
"That's right."
"No, you all understand what? So I'm the only one who's been kept in the dark?" Anthony was completely confused.
"Tsk." Sheng Shuang kindly explained, "What they mean is that our Class Monitor deliberately targeted Onion from the First Military Academy from the very beginning, using those Spaceships to intimidate Onion, gradually making Onion fearful enough to attract Middleton, and then orchestrating Onion's death in front of Middleton, using Onion's death as the trigger for a falling out with Middleton. Now that their goal has been achieved, the Spaceship team naturally made a swift and successful withdrawal."
"I see!" Anthony suddenly realized, nodding repeatedly, and then squeezed into the Main Spaceship Rest Cabin with his classmates.
Pairs of eyes took in the state of the individual cabin near the left side of the door in the Rest Pod, and different faces successively showed expressions of 'I guessed right again', before turning away from the Rest Pod with satisfaction.
[6. A group of people are crowding around the door to take a peek; it's kind of creepy.]
[Has nobody said this? They really seem like a bunch of stalker fans.]
[Isn't it a bit too serious? But isn't it more serious that the students of Fourth Military Academy Class 6 have already readily accepted Qin Su's step-by-step scheme to force Onion to his death?]
[What's so shocking about this? Have you forgotten? Since Qin Su came to Class 6), he has taken every opportunity to deliberately raise their upper limit and lower their lower limit. Their ability to accept things has already undergone a qualitative leap invisibly. In other words, they have been trained by Qin Su to the point that they can be silent and then explode, or they can be abnormal in silence, all depending on what kind of reaction Qin Su needs them to make.]
[A custom-made program personally trained by Qin Su? Wow, that's giving me the creeps]
Having confirmed that Qin Su was in the Rest Pod, the students of Fourth Military Academy Class 6 were relieved. Their excitement from Qin Su's actions not long ago had not yet subsided, and they were unable to sleep or be alone.
Although they tried to appear 'mature and composed' in front of Qin Su, only they knew that it was all a facade.
They simply couldn't remain calm in such a grand setting like Qin Su. Right now, they urgently needed to get along, so they passionately expressed their emotions to their classmates while also writing short essays to share their thoughts on social media.
Similar incidents have occurred several times. The Fourth Military Academy Class 6 left the Rest Pod without anyone needing to say a word. Each of them carried a different flavor of nutrient solution and walked briskly.
Less than five minutes later, the addition of the six members of the Fourth Military Academy the Servers on major social media platforms of the StarNet, which had crashed several times due to Qin Su's live broadcast, to crash frequently again.

[Does anyone read time-travel novels? I seriously suspect that Qin Su Qin Su is a time traveler from the future who came to the present. Otherwise, why would he be so strong? It must be due to the enhancement of future technology or some unknown modifications Qin Su has undergone. Surely Qin Su can't really be a god, right?]
[What are you all analyzing in your chatter? It's the first day of the Countdown the King Su's ascension to the throne!]
[Qin Dynasty, Qin Su Year 1?]
[My surname is also Qin. By rounding up, perhaps tens of thousands of years ago I was related to Qin Su?]
[Doesn't anyone think it's a bit strange that someone as strong as Qin Su is going to exterminate Zerg? Everyone in the know understands that Zerg Military Academies have no future compared to human Military Academies, and the top leaders will eventually join the regular military system after graduation.]
[Haven't you noticed how many Zerg are left? With no Zerg left, the Military Academy responsible for Purge Zerg is no longer necessary. Qin Su entered the Zerg Military Academy precisely to end its existence, right?]
[You mean the Zerg Military Academy is going to be merged into a regular Military Academy? Then I strongly suspect that the reason Qin Su is targeting the First Military Academy is because it is the leading First Military Academy among all Zerg Military Academies. Qin Su has directly shattered the authority of the First Military Academy this time, making their voice less powerful in the Zerg Purge, thus preparing for its merger into a regular Military Academy?]
Clearly, Qin Su has already established his own school of thought.
[I don't understand, but it sounds impressive. I'll leave a comment and see if it's a prophecy. @Blogger, don't delete this post. If the person upstairs' prediction comes true, I'll come back and dig up this old post in the future.]
[Whatever, Qin Su's insect extermination campaign definitely has some backing. I wonder if my volunteering to exterminate insects qualifies me to stand on Qin Su's side?]
[Master, I understand! Qin Su clearly wouldn't listen to anyone but himself. Therefore, it's clear that the Fourth Military Academy has long been under Qin Su's control. Qin Su even had the Fourth Military Academy broadcast this to us live. I guarantee it must have come from Qin Su's open and aboveboard guidance!]
[Really? You guys are joining? Then I'll join too, otherwise it'll seem like I'm stupid for not understanding Qin Su's hint.]
[Count me in]
[Isn't anyone going to speak out for the First Military Academy and oppose Qin Su's cold-blooded and brutal behavior that disregards the lives of its First Military Academy?]
[To be honest, I'm actually a die-hard fan of Qin Su. Go ahead and change your mind if you dare, I won't.]
If you don't oppose it, then I won't oppose it either.
[Since none of you object, then I will...]
[On a side note, if Qin Su becomes the Federation President, can our Kamimengkan Planet apply to join the Federation? There's no other reason than that we want to be able to loudly proclaim, when arguing with other free planets, 'Our president is Qin Su, Qin Su can circle a planet! Can your president do that?']
[Dream on, Qin Su doesn't support useless planets.]
Not wanting to confront Qin Su again, Middleton deliberately slowed down the time it took to return to the Jump Point Platform.
In this short period of time, due to numerous speculations about Qin Su's actions, various planets once again launched a spontaneous Purge campaign against the Zerg.
In order to gain the qualification to potentially side with Qin Su in the future, various families are vying to organize their own private armies and high-end filming equipment to preserve evidence of 'actively responding to Qin Su's call' through live streaming or filming.
The Zerg, Zerg numbers had already dwindled due to the "must-eat list for Zerg on various planets," are now facing another "winter."
Even after the live stream ended, Aiseboer, who was forced by Qin Su to participate in this open conspiracy against the First Military Academy, did not dare to let his guard down. After observing the trend of public opinion, he took a deep breath and retrieved the order of the Federation's troops stationed on different planets from his personal Optical Brain.
He ignored all the messages that had been sent to him since the start of the live stream.
"Principal, are you planning to move somewhere else?" the Secretary asked nervously, afraid that Aiseboer wouldn't be able to handle the provocation from Qin Su and would run away alone without him.
"What are you thinking about?" Aiseboer said speechlessly. "Get ready, choose a number you like, and wait to be integrated into a regular Military Academy."
Given the current situation where various families are eagerly seizing the olive branch extended by Qin Su, ignoring the previously almost completely destroyed insect extermination profit chain, and spontaneously joining the effort to completely destroy this profit transfer chain, thereby expressing their determination to Qin Su, it is believed that before long, the Zerg will no longer be a threat to humanity as before, and will most likely be classified as an endangered species.
So, is it still necessary for the Military Academy responsible for Purge the Zerg to exist?
It's only a matter of time before they're assigned to a regular Military Academy.
[Translating Aiseboer's words: Pack your bags, get ready to level up!]
[I always feel that if the Fourth Military Academy Class 6) were merged into a regular Military Academy, it wouldn't feel the same.]
[What are you thinking? If anyone dares to disrupt the Fourth Military Academy chosen by Qin Su, even the First Military Academy will probably have to give up its place to the Fourth Military Academy.]
Hovering above the Jump Point, Middleton immediately noticed that the massive Jump Point Landing Platform was evenly divided into two parts.
The section belonging to the Fourth Military Academy only had a few Spaceships docked there, while the section First Military Academy had thirty-four Spaceships docked there, and the rest were all stacked Spaceship wreckage, creating a stark contrast.
Middleton's eyes darkened as he recalled that his conversation with Onion was still stuck on Onion's account of Qin Su's actions against him.
All of this proves to him countless times that Qin Su deliberately targeted him and the First Military Academy behind him.
Otherwise, why did those densely packed, Onion Spaceship immediately withdraw after Qin Su achieved his goal?
Seeing this, the other officers at the First Military Academy glanced at Middleton and the officers at the Fourth Military Academy, not daring to breathe, remaining silent and filled with unease.
' The First Military Academy's future looks bleak. Once they return, they'll have to give a detailed report on everything that happened here. I wonder if it's too late to change sides now?'
In the current situation, the only thing that could comfort Middleton was that he did not see a single member of the Fourth Military Academy Class 6 on the Jump Point Platform.
Although this demonstrated Qin Su's intention to use the First Military Academy and then discard it, the situation forced Middleton to accept the situation without objection.
It paused for a few seconds, then quickly entered the First Military Academy's Spaceship.
The soldiers Middleton brought with him boarded the same Spaceship, while the other students boarded the other Spaceships with their families and servants.
Upon entering the Spaceship, Middleton quickly sensed something was wrong. After scanning the area, he found that apart from the Spaceship and some fixed equipment, almost all the supplies had been removed.
Middleton: "?"
When students from institutions like the Fourth Military Academy go out to carry out Purge operations, the amount of supplies they receive is usually regulated, and unless there is special approval, they will not receive much more than the allotted amount.
Their First Military Academy, especially Onion's class, always had several times more supplies than the number of Zerg in the Purge Zone. No matter how bad their abilities were, they could win by sheer numbers of weapons. They could achieve excellent kill counts by attacking indiscriminately without any thought.
Each time, after using the supplies he prepared for Onion for seven days, he would return with some left over.
Now, after only one day of not understanding, nothing is left?
Middleton took a few deep breaths and had someone bring over a surviving member of Class 6 for questioning.
The First Military Academy Class 6) originally had more than 400 people, but now there are less than 100 left. The remaining 300-plus people have been ordered by Middleton to stay in Erato forever with Onion.
Onion hadn't even entered his own location into the Location Map, so naturally he had no concrete idea of the specific supplies he was carrying, let alone the class members who had no authority to know the exact quantity of supplies they were carrying.
Faced with Middleton's questioning, the students who came from the "bottom of the class" among the many surviving students turned ashen-faced and could only recount what they had seen and heard to Middleton.
Five minutes later, Middleton's furious roar echoed through the Spaceship: "You mean, Qin Su not only deliberately forced Onion to join him on the mission, but also used the First Military Academy's weapons to drive Onion to his death?!"
"... Yes, yes, the Class Monitor originally... originally didn't plan to go out of the Spaceship, but was... forced by Qin Su..."
The speaker's voice choked with sobs as he collapsed to the ground, trembling so badly that he dared not look at Middleton, whose face had twisted into a ferocious grimace after hearing his words. He feared that he had barely escaped with his life, only to have it taken away again by Middleton in his rage before the day was even over.
Qin Su: "?"
What does this have to do with the facts? If he weren't the person involved, he almost would have believed it. He was clearly acting according to the rules, so what did he do wrong? Although the 500-meter rule was no longer followed after the appearance of the Kerr Armored Scorpion, it was Onion who first called on outside help to break the rules, and he was just following suit.
Even if you round it off, he's still right.
Qin Su felt helpless because he couldn't sue the other party for defamation.
Having always been the one to "murder and rob," Middleton experienced the taste of "being murdered and robbed" for the first time at Qin Su.
In other words, it was the weapon he himself prepared for Onion that killed Onion.
Middleton felt his blood rush to his head, his mind went blank, and he fell straight backward, fainting from sheer anger.
"Principal!"
Amid gasps of surprise, Middleton was surrounded by a crowd. The student who had finished his story, taking advantage of the fact that no one was watching him, crawled out of the crowd, sobbing uncontrollably.
Bang!
A short, silencing sound rang out, and the student, whose neck was gushing blood, still wore the lingering look of fear on his face, having forever lost his chance to leave the Spaceship.
Middleton's Secretary breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing the body on the ground.
Fortunately, it was handled in time; otherwise, given Middleton's temperament, he would have been the one punished.
When the body was dragged out, the Secretary only said one short sentence, "This person attempted to Assassination the Principal and has been shot dead."
Qin Su: "..."
He can call black white; he's just as shameless as me.
"Yes."
The two soldiers responded without saying anything more, and quickly carried the body away and threw it out of the Spaceship.
Seeing this, Qin Su thought for a moment, then silently opened the hatch, preparing He Muzhi advance for the possible situations he might encounter.
It's almost impossible to get to the end cleanly. Sometimes, only a tough and bloody crackdown can silence those who are lurking in the shadows.
Death doesn't only happen on the battlefield.
The students of Fourth Military Academy Class 6 were excitedly replying to their relatives and friends on various social media platforms when they suddenly heard the sound of the cabin door being opened. They were stunned for a moment, then quickly ran to the cabin door.
As they approached, they saw the student corpses that had been thrown out by soldiers from Middleton's First Military Academy. The students of Class 6) looked shocked.
