Strange Occurrences

After waiting for several hours, the captain of Locke's squad finally successfully obtained his modified weapon.

Immediately, he uploaded the video of the squad's mission to Mutta Planet to the public network.

The public network was the shared network system of Temporary Army No. 32 on the spaceship.

Every squad was required to set up automatic video recording before missions to preserve the process.

This was a regulation of the Empire's Temporary Army.

Because the management system of the Temporary Army was much more relaxed than that of the regular army, to prevent some soldiers from being perfunctory during missions, the Empire required the Temporary Army to use automatic recording devices to document their missions.

The captain, naturally, recorded the mission process on Mutta Planet.

The video was uploaded to the public network, visible to everyone on the spaceship.

This public network was similar to a forum, where other soldiers could even comment and share.

At that moment, soldiers familiar with Locke's squad saw the captain's new update and immediately left comments, teasing him.

"Oh ho? Got the military merits?"

"If you got the merits, aren't you going to treat us to some fun?"

What started as casual banter turned into surprise when these familiar soldiers clicked on the video to watch its contents.

"Why is there a Level 5 Furball Monster? This Furball Monster isn't normal!"

"What's going on? This situation should be reported, right? Otherwise, if there's incorrect information during our missions, we'll be in danger too!"

Some soldiers' attention was drawn to the Furball Monster.

However, some soldiers' attention was captivated by the battle saber in Locke's hand.

"This battle saber has the power of a Star level, but it can be used by someone at the Planet level!"

Upon hearing this soldier's analysis, the commenters were astonished and began to discuss the Mechanical Battle Saber in a flurry of chatter.

"Which master modified this Mechanical Battle Saber? Please introduce them!"

Seeing his friend's question in the comments, Locke's squad captain quickly mentioned in the comments that the Mechanical Battle Saber came from Su Ming.

"What? Su Ming? The Mechanic who just joined our spaceship? Isn't he Planet level?"

"It's normal. Many Mechanics are low-key these days and don't bother with certification. Master Su Ming must already be a Star level Mechanic, just too lazy to get certified."

"Holy crap! A Star level Mechanic? We have a Star level Mechanic on our ship? I need to get him to modify my stuff!"

Word spread like wildfire.

Soon... the news that Su Ming was a Star level Mechanic spread throughout the entire spaceship.

Now, all the soldiers knew that Su Ming was a Star level Mechanic.

As a result, the line of soldiers waiting outside Su Ming's dormitory for repairs grew even longer.

Furthermore, some soldiers handed over their Star level mechanical equipment to Su Ming for repair.

Su Ming actually managed to repair these Star level equipment.

This outcome further convinced these soldiers that Su Ming was indeed a Star level Mechanic.

Instantly... Su Ming's status and income on the spaceship soared.

Previously, Su Ming could only earn about 200-400 military merits after repairing a piece of mechanical equipment.

But since the soldiers discovered Su Ming was a Star level Mechanic, the price for each piece of mechanical equipment modified by him was raised to the range of 1000-1200 military merits.

It was nearly a fivefold increase!

The value a Star level Mechanic could create was indeed five times or even more than that of a Planet level Mechanic!

Some external Star level Mechanics couldn't even secure an appointment.

In the eyes of these soldiers, having a Star level Mechanic on board was a tremendous benefit for the Temporary Army.

They all scrambled to have Su Ming help them with repairs and modifications.

Su Ming's income also skyrocketed during this period, earning around 20,000 military merits daily!

If this continued, it was likely that in less than a week, Su Ming would successfully exchange for the Mecha knowledge and blueprints he had always desired!

The mission video uploaded by Locke's squad actually caused more than just the ripple effect of Su Ming's mechanical equipment.

Soon, the true administrator of the spaceship, Lieutenant Walker, also saw the video. Lieutenant Walker then focused his attention on the Level 5 Furball Monster.

He was not interested in Star level mechanical equipment.

After all, with his status, it was not difficult to find Star level Mechanics.

However... the Level 5 Furball Monster caught his attention.

"Strange, why have so many unusually ranked cosmic creatures been appearing lately... this isn't the first incident!"

Lieutenant Walker frowned, a hint of solemnity flashing in his eyes.

Others might have only found this matter strange.

However, Lieutenant Walker, combining this with the recent coup in the Bander Galaxy by the Lothar Party and their ambiguous stance, had a vague feeling that the strange events in this star sector might be related to the Lothar Party.

Lieutenant Walker stood up and immediately found Captain Locke.

"Lieutenant, is there something you need?"

Seeing Lieutenant Walker come to him specifically, the Captain looked at him with curiosity.

Lieutenant Walker nodded slightly, his expression solemn, and then spoke to the Captain, "Based on the mission video, I saw that you took a piece of meat from the Level 5 Furball Monster that was killed. Could you hand that piece of meat over to me?"

Seeing Lieutenant Walker's seriousness, the Captain was slightly surprised and then said, "Of course. This piece of meat was specifically cut off for research. It's even better if you take it for submission now!"

After speaking, the Captain retrieved a piece of meat stored in a preservation device from his storage space and handed it, along with the device, to Lieutenant Walker.

The Lieutenant nodded and then said to the Captain, "Don't mention this to anyone!"

The Captain was startled. "Lieutenant, is there something unusual about this Level 5 Furball Monster?"

Hearing the Captain's words, the Lieutenant shook his head and said, "I'm not sure, but something about this feels off. I need to study this Furball Monster's flesh and blood before I can make any deductions!"

After hearing the Lieutenant's words, the Captain opened his mouth but could only nod in the end, saying nothing.

Since the Lieutenant had said so, it was likely that this meat involved some sensitive matters, so the Captain didn't feel right asking further questions.
