Chapter 11: Mecha Piloting

"The Chaos World is a star field outside the Federation. After two hundred years of development, the Federation's resources have gradually become tight, so the major star fields are focusing on the more abundant resource planets on the periphery. However, the natural environment and mining difficulties of those planets are very large, and in order to cultivate suitable interstellar miners, many star fields use felons to carry out human-animal genetic hybridization to cultivate strong half-orcs to serve as alien miners. Although this method has obtained a lot of resources for the Federation, many resource planets have gradually been occupied by orcs. On the one hand, these people need the technology and machinery of the civilized world, and on the other hand, they have great malice towards the civilized world. They are both good and evil, good and evil, so those resource planets are called the Chaos World. ”

He Ruozhi heard the term orcs for the first time, and said in his heart: These people are really pitiful, first they were forced to inject the genes of some beasts, so that people are not ghosts, and then they were transported to work on resource planets with harsh environments, and even died there.

If he had suffered such a fate, he might have become an enemy of mankind a long time ago.

But I heard Mu Qiaoping say quietly: "Human beings are such creatures, for their own ambitions and desires, they can arbitrarily manipulate the lives and ...... of others Dignity. Maybe this won't change in the slightest until the day of humanity's destruction, right? ”

He Ruozhi was stunned, not knowing why there was such a strong melancholy aura coming from Mu Qiaoping's body.

Mu Qiaoping smiled faintly and said, "Let's enter the network first, it's very simple, I'll explain to you slowly when I get inside." ”

……

"User Black Wing has logged in to the system, the initial ranking is 315473542, and the money is 1000."

After a burst of pleasant music, He Ruozhi logged on to the Internet in a daze, and the virtual reality system made him feel as if he had arrived in another world.

The air of this world is particularly sober, and all the buildings feel as if they were in the style of eighteenth-century Europe on earth, very ornate and extravagant.

He Ruozhi was standing in front of a big city, surrounded by handsome men and beautiful women dressed in style, from time to time there were mecha slices in the sky, and the sound of fire and explosions was heard in the distance, as if a fierce battle was taking place.

"Ash?"

A beautiful woman asked, confused, her red hair glistening in the sun.

"Little Apple, what does the initial ranking mean?" He Ruozhi asked.

"The initial ranking refers to the level of combat effectiveness among the five billion online users, and netizens must go through mecha battles to improve their ranking. In the Zeus world, this ranking is very important because it represents a person's level of mech piloting. In the real world, people with high rankings are often able to find a good job, even if they don't have a strong academic background, so work hard! ”

"Is that so......"

Mu Qiaoping explained that the current universe is respected by martial arts, and the interstellar network was originally built to allow mecha knights from different star fields to exchange combat skills with each other, so it seems that it will pay more attention to military aspects.

However, the universe is so big, and not all places can be connected to the same network.

Basically, there are three networks in the current universe. One is the Zeus network dedicated to serving the Western civilized world; One is the Pangu network dedicated to serving the Oriental Star Field; The third set is the chaos network used by the orcs of the chaotic world.

Therefore, even if the person who ranks first in the Zeus world is not necessarily the invincible powerhouse in the world.

"So, it's very easy to learn to fly a mech here?" He Ruozhi's eyes lit up, he originally entered the network to learn mecha piloting.

Mu Qiaoping nodded, and said, "It's just ......"

"What?"

"Well, there are all kinds of mecha training schools on the network, but generally speaking, the fees are not cheap, and it basically costs more than three thousand gold coins to complete the most basic courses."

One gold coin is equivalent to one credit, which is a huge number of three thousand yuan!

He Ruozhi was penniless.

"This ......"

"Let's find a way to make money." Mu Qiaoping said with a smile, "There are also many businesses that can make money on the virtual network!" ”

He Ruozhi tilted his head and thought about it for a long time, but he couldn't think of what kind of money-making business he, a "primitive person from a nature reserve", could do.

Except for robbery.

*****

"I'm sorry sir, our junior mecha training course is 2,800 yuan after the discount, please pay 70% of the tuition fee first, thank you."

He Ruozhi has been rejected by the seven mecha academies.

Green City is a city specially set up for newcomers to the Internet, so there are many mecha academies in this city, whether it is a beginner who has never even touched a mecha, or an ace pilot who has made great achievements in the wilderness of the universe, you can improve here.

But none of them are cheap enough.

He Ruozhi was depressed.

After looking for a long time, he found a mecha academy that did not require paying tuition in advance, which was a training course set up by a space reclamation company, everything was free, and the only requirement was that after the students completed their studies, they could serve the company for a period of time.

But when the instructor saw He Ruozhi's ability test results, he was so angry that his eyes almost popped out.

"Are you a pig? The mental power is not even forty points, oh my God, where are you from the hillbilly? ”

"Earth." He Ruozhi replied calmly.

"Earth? Damn it, go back to your hometown and eat mud, stupid earthlings! ”

He Ruozhi was kicked out.

At this moment, the image of a chubby old man appeared above his head.

"Boy, do you want to learn to drive a mecha?" The old man asked with a smile.

He Ruozhi nodded.

"You don't have any money?"

Nodding.

"Your mental power is only thirty-five?"

Still nodding.

"Good." The fat old man patted He Ruozhi on the shoulder vigorously, "Good boy, you are simply born to be my apprentice's material, rest assured, I, Hodak, am the most famous mecha leader in the entire Oz City, my school facilities are excellent and the fees are reasonable, it is definitely your best choice." ”

"But-" He Ruozhi looked at the old man in front of him very suspiciously, it seemed that he was a little fat and couldn't walk, seeing that even the cockpit of the mecha might not be able to squeeze in, would he be a qualified mecha instructor?

"Go! Don't you believe me? Now, this is a photo of me with the Dark Fallen Angel, the once-top-ranked mecha master on the Zeus server, and this is a video of my battle with the invading monsters of the Moon Galaxy. Depend on! No matter how I say it, they are all people with status and status in the stars, will they still come to cheat you of such a little pocket money? Come on, come on, sign this contract, I guarantee that you will learn to fly an armed mecha within half a year and become a well-known mecha knight, and the tuition fee will only charge you 800 yuan! Come on, what are you hesitating about, hurry up! ”

He Ruozhi took the contract, and it didn't seem to be a problem, but he always felt that there was something strange in it.

He Ruozhi hesitated to transfer the eight hundred gold coins to the other party's account, and Hodak smiled.

"That's right! Now that you have become a glorious disciple of the Tianyu Network Mecha Academy, are you very happy? ”

"That...... Can you see where the school is first? ”

A cold wind blew, sweeping up a golden leaf on the ground.

He Ruozhi looked at the "Tianyu Network Mecha Academy" in front of him in a daze.

There is only a small three-story building in the deserted academy, and two lowest-level mechs are placed in front of the building.

In addition, there are toys such as children's slides, merry-go-rounds, and ocean balls.
