"Say no more than two..."

Buzz--

Before the people behind could finish speaking, someone heard a faint, low-frequency buzzing sound enter their ears, and their attention was drawn away from Lawrence and the others, turning their head to look straight ahead.

Seeing this, the others all looked over.

Before Qin Su, a heavy, pure black circular gate opened wide to both sides.

Standing behind Qin Su, someone showed an "I see" expression. Just now they were wondering why Qin Su walked towards a seemingly ordinary black wall. If it weren't open at the moment, with the round door blending seamlessly into the black wall, no one would have been able to tell that there was a hidden world inside.

The moment Qin Su stepped inside, the previously pitch-black interior was suddenly brightly lit. The most striking feature was a huge, extra-long oval-shaped dark gray conference table. The empty area above the table was in a temporarily unattended state.

Qin Su walked straight to the head of the table, not hearing the footsteps following behind him, and prompted, "Sit down, everyone."

"Ah... yes."

"Good."

The brief response was mixed with the chaotic footsteps of a group of students from Class 6 rushing towards Qin Su.

Qin Su didn't specify a seat, so he went to the head seat and sat down, leaning back slightly against the leather chair. He didn't urge anyone and waited quietly.

The students from Class 6 who entered looked at the huge conference table, temporarily forgot the unpleasantness that had just occurred, exchanged glances, disrupted the current clear division between front and back, and each headed towards their respective group leader with a clear goal.

After seeing all the students in Class 6 seated, Qin Su glanced around and found that the seating arrangement was basically the same as he had expected.

Even if they harbored some resentment, when they sat down, their first reaction was to find their respective group leaders and choose seats next to them, as if they were thinking, "What else can we do but get by?"

Seeing this, Qin Su couldn't help but slightly curl the corners of his mouth upwards, but he quickly regained his composure and continued to act aloof.

The students of Class 6 sat down, not quite understanding the meaning behind Qin Su's chilling gaze as he swept over them. Then, seeing Qin Su suddenly give a small, cold laugh, the students of Class 6, all of whom had something to hide, felt even more uneasy and their scalps tingled.

Mocking their recent 'internal strife'? Or... a sense of disappointed helplessness?

Before the anxious group of students in Class 6 could come up with any ideas, they heard Qin Su's calm voice again.

"There are sixteen days left until the Fourth Military Academy opens." Switching back to strong mode, Qin Su spoke while showing a map of Boers City, the political center of Hruna Planet and the core of the Ossotalia Empire. "There are new arrangements for these sixteen days; you don't need to return to your original internship positions."

The unfolded map of Clyus City was enlarged by Qin Su so that, as long as his eyesight was fine, every student in Class 6 could clearly see the area they were assigned to.

Looking at the sections marked with their names on the map, the students of Class 6) habitually stared at them. When they heard Qin Su say that there was a new task, they were eager to try.

Seeing the light in his students' eyes, Qin Su granted them map access. "Now, everyone, link to the area marked with your name."

"Yes!"

As the uniform voices fell, the 999 students in Class 6, curious about the specifics of the new arrangement, eagerly linked their Optical Brain into their respective areas to check.

Once inside, everyone saw that their assigned area was marked with numerous points.

'What's the meaning?'

He gave the students five seconds to glance at the information, and just as their doubts began to surface, Qin Su coldly said, "I don't care what methods you use. Starting from now, on the sixteenth day, I want to see detailed information on all the marked points in your assigned areas."

"This information includes, but is not limited to, the location of control and defense alarms, weapon supply points, duty shifts..."

(Class 6 were busy turning on their Optical Brain and inputting data synchronously.

After listing for a full two minutes, Qin Su stopped, still not quite finished. "You can add the rest yourselves."

Looking at the long list of information that needed to be verified, and hearing Qin Su say that this was not all and that they needed to provide additional information, one or two of them felt their heads were about to explode, and they had no extra energy to think about anything else.

Before the pale-faced students of Class 6 could recover from their bewildered state, Qin Su deliberately emphasized in a deep voice. "During this period, I will not provide any assistance to anyone present in Clyus."

They can only trust themselves, and can only ask for help from their own network of contacts.

Among these connections, apart from their families who fully support them, no one else would help them for no reason, without making a commitment to future choices, exchanging something from the future or what they currently have. Only the people in Class 6 their own.

Moreover, Clyus is the largest Sky City on the Hruna Planet. He needs to win this war with minimal impact on the lives of ordinary residents and at the lowest possible cost. He must know himself and his enemy. The mission points allocated to 999 people are no more than necessary.

Given his previous deliberate targeting of the Ossotalia Empire, it was as easy as breathing for the 999 people in Class 6) to become the target of everyone's criticism in the Ossotalia Empire.

Compared to Aldrich, who naturally infiltrated the Ossotalia Empire through He Wenyuan's betrayal, the students faced double the difficulty in sneaking in undetected.

With limited time and a heavy workload, the students don't have much time to maneuver, and there's a high probability they'll be forced to cooperate again.

Before he completes the process of leading He Muzhi to the final destination set in the comic, he doesn't care whether the 'melons' he's forcibly brought together are sweet or not; he just wants to 'quench his thirst'.

'What?!'

Qin Su's indifferent notification was like a bolt from the blue for the 999 students in Class 6) who were already in a headache.

Many people hesitated, looking up in disbelief at Qin Su, who had a cold and stern face, and then looked at the others present. No one stepped forward, and in the end, no one spoke.

Qin Su pretended to be blind, ignoring his classmates' hesitant expressions, and said in a cold, hard tone with an unapproachable demeanor. "Apart from traveling through here to Clyus, I don't want to see or hear any news of you appearing on Kamila Planet anywhere outside of Kamila Planet."

Whether it was voluntary or not, the fact is that the Kamila Planet 'generously' provided him with a 'base'. He had to ensure, as agreed with the Governor of Kamila Planet, that Kamila Planet would not be involved before the matter was completed, becoming a scapegoat for the Ossotalia Empire and increasing the risk of prematurely exposing his purpose.

"Clear."

"Receive."

Although they had a thousand words in their hearts, when it came to speaking, the group of students in Class 6) could only respond under Qin Su's forceful orders.

"Furthermore," Qin Su looked up and gestured to the students, "Starting today, this place will be open to all of you with certain access privileges."

(Class 6 looked up and saw the building's interior, which was empty all the way up to the top where the view was blocked. The Optical Brain then displayed a map of the building's layout.

It has everything you need, including a canteen, rest areas, entertainment facilities, and training facilities.

Kamila Planet is the closest vassal planet to the Ossotalia Empire. According to Qin Su, it is the base from which all of them will 'retreat' from Herus Planet in the next sixteen days.

As usual, Qin Su gave everyone five seconds before asking, "That's all I have to say for now. Does anyone have any objections?"

"..."

Despite everyone's pleas, under Qin Su's scrutinizing gaze, they ultimately reduced their responses to a series of "no" and "gone."

"In that case," Qin Su stood up from his chair, glanced around the room again, and said, "Let's begin." Then, as the students of Class 6 stood up and silently watched him leave, he strode away from the conference table and headed towards the entrance.

To catch the thief, you must first catch the king. In the remaining two weeks, while his classmates infiltrated and learned about Clyus, he also had to compile a list of people to be "packed up." According to the medical records of the people on the list, many of them would not be able to meet their maker before the election, so he had to "add" them.

The Ossotalia Empire has always been restless, either provoking other planets or on its way to slaughtering them.

However, perhaps due to repeated setbacks on the Leichakan Planet and the prison cleanup incident, they have not taken action against planets under the jurisdiction of the Federation.

According to his observation, this situation should continue until the next Presidential Election.

Rounding up, this roughly means that the Federation and the Ossotalia Empire have temporarily lost a major conflict that could have instigated a war.

Without sufficient political achievements, even if he used any means necessary to get He Muzhi elected, it would be difficult to win over the public.

The actions of the Ossotalia Empire were contrary to his objectives, which put him in a difficult position.

But it doesn't matter, there's no conflict, he creates his own.

The circular door at the entrance opened in front of Qin Su, and closed again after Qin Su left. The students from Class 6 who remained at the conference table looked at each other, unconsciously exhaled, and relaxed their tense nerves, slumping into their chairs one after another.

After a few seconds of silence, Raymond's voice, tinged with excitement, echoed throughout the vast space.

You guessed right!

"?"

Everyone looked at Raymond with confusion.

Raymond was still basking in the excitement of his earlier guess coming true. "I knew it! The Class Monitor would one day target the Ossotalia Empire, and everything we've done against Clyus is proof of that!"

When Qin Su targeted the Ossotalia Empire before, Raymond wasn't the only one who made this judgment; everyone agreed with Raymond's words and nodded silently in agreement.

Soon someone else shook their head. "That's true, but this..."

Lailisi ruffled her hair in frustration. "Don't you guys think this is a bit difficult?"

Anthony patted Lailisi on the shoulder. "We're doing alright. Look at Sophia and Jeffrey, their mission locations are all in the center of Clyus, the core region of the Empire's core. They're in a much worse situation, haha..."

He chuckled twice, but upon meeting the vehemently condemning gazes of his classmates, Anthony wisely covered his mouth and opened the research area he was assigned to. "Never mind."

The others who had been harassed by Anthony just rolled their eyes at Anthony speechlessly, not bothering to argue, and each focused on figuring out where to start.

Seeing that everyone was going their own way and no one seemed inclined to pay him any attention, Lawrence hesitated for a long time before walking over to his team leader, Lin Yin. He then turned on his personal Optical Brain and made a hesitant gesture while looking at the contact list.
