Chapter 278
Fortunately, before everything is settled, it is all just speculation. As long as no substantial evidence is found, any further speculation is just a rumor and a frame-up against Qin Su and Class 6).
All of Class 6) had experience in 'surviving' in the previous two environments. No matter where they were, they could work together and come up with ideas. They were basically able to do things very well. They could handle most of the tasks at hand very well. Even if others were sarcastic or critical, they could still do things without being able to find fault with them.
As per usual, the Fourth Military Academy gave graduating students a week to freely find their assigned places. With one day left, Zhang Minglang stared at the list of internship destinations, but Qin Su's internship destination was not on it.
According to school rules, he must submit the form by 5:30 pm today, no matter what happens.
Once he submits the form and it's entered into the Fourth Military Academy Graduate Internship Intention System, Qin Su will, like the other Military Academy students who haven't found a place to work this week, enter the school's assignment process next week.
Is the Fourth Military Academy really going to assign Qin Su to this position?
The Fourth Military Academy dared not, but he had no choice but to submit the form according to the rules.
Zhang Minglang stared at the Countdown, which showed six hours and a few seconds left until 5:30 PM, feeling both expectant and apprehensive.
Having not received any internship updates from Qin Su for several days, he set Countdown this last day, focusing intently on it to avoid missing the final submission deadline.
Suddenly, while Zhang Minglang's eyes were still on the Countdown, a message from Qin Su popped up on the personal Optical Brain.
"!"
Zhang Minglang quickly looked away from the Green √ Countdown number 6:00.
Without even clicking, the moment Zhang Minglang saw the information on the page, his pupils contracted sharply, and he gasped, hardly believing what he was seeing.
The Ossotalia Empire?
Internship positions...
Emperor???
[Oh my god, oh my grandma, oh my jujubes... I forgot the rest, but I was utterly shocked!]
I was stunned. Could it be that the mushrooms I ate last night weren't cooked thoroughly?
[King Su didn't just talk the talk; he actually became emperor.]
[If he becomes the true king, what will happen to the Federation?]
[Don't be too happy yet. What if Qin Su is just faking it? The emperor isn't someone he can just temporarily replace at will. Doesn't he even ask the notorious tyrant Kanasen for his consent?]
"!!!"
"..."
Zhang Minglang tried to calm the turmoil surging in his heart. His gaze fell on the signature of Emperor Kanasen III of the Emperor of the Ossotalia Empire. His heart pounded wildly, his mind went blank, and he couldn't understand Qin Su's intentions at all.
Although it all seemed like a prank, the undeniable facts before him left him no choice but to believe it.
It is known that what he is seeing is true, but so far, there has been no news about Qin Su from the Ossotalia Empire.
Was the Ossotalia Empire accustomed to Qin Su temporarily acting as 'emperor'? Had Qin Su always been a member of the Ossotalia Empire? Or... was their Emperor Kanasen, now Qin Su's prisoner, controlled by Qin Su and unable to communicate with the outside world? Or perhaps Qin Su wasn't even in the Ossotalia Empire, but had coerced Kanasen into signing the document he saw? Or... were there other speculations he couldn't currently conceive of?
Several deductions flashed through Zhang Minglang's mind, but he couldn't be sure. He took several deep breaths, but still couldn't suppress the surging emotions in his heart. He opened the Class 6 chat and saw that Qin Su's official internship information was still not in the table that had been announced before.
Given Qin Su's favoritism towards Class 6), the fact that Qin Su only informed them of this explosive information privately, without disclosing it to Class 6), indicates that Qin Su did not want to make this public.
Zhang Minglang was afraid that if he submitted the proposal rashly, Aiseboer might not understand it in time and spread the news. If Qin Su saw that they couldn't even handle such a small matter, his goodwill towards the Federation might drop sharply, and he might lean towards the Ossotalia Empire. After chatting with Aiseboer privately, Zhang Minglang shut down his Optical Brain and hurriedly walked out, intending to communicate with Aiseboer face to face in person.
Everyone at the Fourth Military Academy knew that today was the deadline, and they were very likely to find out Qin Su's whereabouts today. Adhering to the principle that "if they can't see Qin Su, can't they keep an eye on Zhang Minglang?", they implemented a shift system to keep watch. As soon as someone saw Zhang Minglang come out, they immediately sent the message to the small group and rushed over themselves without delay.
"Teacher Zhang, what brings you out? Is it Qin Su...?"
Zhang Minglang glanced at the group of teachers and students who had clearly rushed over after receiving the news not far away. Without even waiting for them to finish speaking, he blurted out three denials in quick succession. "I don't know, I'm not clear, I don't understand."
"Make way, make way!" Aiseboer arrived with a large group of people and charged at the teachers and students trying to surround Zhang Minglang, speaking in a dramatic tone, "What are you all doing here during class time? Don't you have anything better to do? Get out of the way! Teacher Zhang just feels unwell and needs to go to the school clinic. What kind of behavior is this, blocking our way like this?!"
Health matters are unpredictable, and besides, Zhang Minglang is already quite old. With the patrol team blocking their way and Aiseboer feigning anger and shouting, no matter how curious everyone was about Qin Su's whereabouts, they dared not actually detain Zhang Minglang. Reluctantly, they watched as Zhang Minglang left with Aiseboer's careful support.
"Why does Teacher Zhang seem to be walking so briskly? Is she really sick?"
"Perhaps they rushed to the hospital because they were in a hurry?"
"If they were really in such a hurry, the doctor should have sped over on campus using school transportation, not Teacher Zhang coming alone... Wait a minute, that's the direction of the vice Principal's office! Damn, I've been fooled!"
Less than a minute later, Zhang Minglang and Aiseboer's undisguised 'frankness' after leaving the crowd made those who had hesitated to stop them realize they had been fooled, and a series of annoyed but friendly greetings rang out from the crowd.
[Zhang Minglang: Huh? How come I didn't know I was sick?]
[The Pick-Up King bargains]
[The actors are ready]
After a brief discussion and consultation with Xu Zhen, Aiseboer simply wrote four words in the section about Qin Su's internship information, "Confidential for now."
--
The Setini Palace of the Ossotalia Empire.
Qin Su, being a habitual seeker of good fortune, sent the internship acceptance certificate required by the Fourth Military Academy to his Class Advisor with exactly six hours left before the submission Countdown. Only after activating his personal Comic Capture Camera did he have time to look around at his surroundings.
Previously, he had only seen it through Optical Brain, although the magnificent palace was not within his aesthetic range, he had to admit that it exuded a splendid, extravagant, and awe-inspiring aura of imperial dominance.
[... Seriously, my family confirmed it!]
[If you don't understand, ask away: Can an emperor... also 'intern'? (scratching head) Why is this world suddenly on a next level without my knowledge? Well then, I, Bai, am going to be the intern version of a domineering CEO!]
[Never mind the matter of the God Su, just tell me whether the internship has actually started or not.]
[Baby 1 (pouting): Long time no see! You're still as cool, edgy, and awesome as ever! (pouting lips): Love you, mwah!]
[No wonder we couldn't find it anywhere; it turns out this King of the Sea was really in the atmosphere.]
[I'm asking you, who would have thought of this?]
[Even His Majesty the Emperor couldn't have imagined this (doge) right Kanasen]
Turning his gaze away, Qin Su leaned back in his comfortable chair, inlaid with various jewels, and looked at Kanasen XIII, who stood not far in front of him, his body hunched over, wearing a crown and magnificent robes even in his office when he wasn't out. He sincerely praised him, "Your palace is very nice."
"...?"
Kanasen never expected that the renowned Qin Su would coldly survey his office area and say something so unexpected. A moment of bewilderment flashed in his gloomy, lake-blue eyes.
'No, is he sick?!'
Kanasen recovered from Qin Su's inexplicable praise, his face no less grim than before, inwardly cursing and hurling insults at the Qin Family's ancestors for eighteen generations.
A few minutes ago, Qin Su appeared out of nowhere right in front of him. Heaven knows, when he heard the dull footsteps on the ground, he thought it was some unruly fellow and looked up unhappily. But the person in front of him was not the familiar face who didn't know his place. Instead, it was Qin God Su expression, approaching him step by step. He was so frightened that he trembled and the golden head in his hand rolled to the ground.
When he finally realized what was happening and tried to call for help, no matter how loudly he shouted or how his Optical Brain tried to contact the outside world, there was no audio output.
He had thought Qin Su would kill him silently, just like Qin Su had done to the soldiers of the Ossotalia Empire, turning him into dust. Unexpectedly, Qin Su simply made him sign a document that he hadn't had time to read and didn't care to read what was written on it at the time, and then told him to get back to where he was standing. Qin Su then sat in his original spot, looking at him with a cold, scrutinizing gaze, and said something that left him completely baffled.
Seeing the confusion in Kanasen's eyes, Qin Su, adhering to the principle that 'nothing is faster than doing it conveniently,' continued after his praise, "Now it's mine."
The Ossotalia Empire was a political achievement he had prepared for his classmates in Class 6. It would be destroyed sooner or later. Of course, he could not become the emperor of the Ossotalia Empire. He controlled Kanasen here and lived like an emperor. Rounding up, how could he not be considered an intern as an 'emperor'?
He didn't want to either, but according to the Fourth Military Academy's regulations, without an internship certificate in the final year, he wouldn't be able to graduate smoothly from the Military Academy.
Based on his established persona, to avoid the character being out of character, he would honestly intern in positions similar to those assigned to his classmates, always having someone overshadow him. That wouldn't be strong at all. If he really wanted to intern, he could only go straight to becoming the 'top leader'.
In this Comic World, no other empire, Confederacy, or planet can compare with the Federation and the Ossotalia Empire in terms of economy, technological development, politics, and so on. Therefore, the top position of other planets or empires is not within his range of choices.
In the eyes of the world, his focus had been on the Federation, and people would subconsciously guess that his internship was related to the Federation President. This was confirmed by watching the speculations of the barrage comments and the natives in the Comic World in the Real World.
In order to achieve an effect that would surprise everyone, he pondered and deliberated, and the Ossotalia Empire was still the most suitable.
[Laughs... no, I laughed so hard I practically screamed like a goose.]
[As expected of the King Su, so domineering! I like your statement.]
[I'm really happy with "Emperor Internship Post" now (thumbs up)]
[Kanasen: I've never seen such a shameless person!]
[Now that we've seen it (grinning), aren't you surprised and delighted?]
[I can't argue with that, Boss Su is truly acting like an emperor. I'm like 'Mi opens the gate and lets the dogs out to spray the leader.' I agree that Boss Su should be emperor.]
[Kitten:? Is this human speech?]
[The King Su's Internship Experience: My Years of Reigning Supreme in the Ossotalia Empire]
"...???"
Because Qin Su's remarks were so bizarre, Kanasen suspected that there was something wrong with his hearing.
