“Tsk, get lost. What can you do with his information? Look at your skinny arms and legs. Look at that student’s figure. Are you going to deliver food to him?”
The students who said this weren’t from the mecha master training course. They were students from other classes.
Ning Shi was considered a famous student in the mecha master training course. Not only did he skip class every day, but his class teacher did not punish him. Instead, she became closer to him.
It was not just the mecha master training course, but even the Norse Republic Academy had never seen such a student.
Ning Shi ignored the curious and jealous gazes of the surrounding students. He started the Hell Bike and drove Ye Hongmian to the food street. They chose a restaurant that served frog dishes.
Old Zheng Mei Frog Delicacy Shop.
The food in this shop was a Level 1 radioactive creature, the long-legged leaping frog. The leaping frog mutated after being exposed to radiation elements.
Leaping frogs were bred by humans for food. Their meat was tender, smooth, and delicious.
After mutating into a long-legged leaping frog, the legs of the leaping frog became longer and the meat was more delicious, but it became extremely difficult to handle.
This was because the long-legged leaping frog actually carried too much radiation. To ordinary people, it was poisonous food. It had to be processed in a special way to reduce the radiation in its body before it could be made into a dish for people to eat.
A restaurant that specialized in making long-legged leaping frogs in the food street must have some skill, so Ning Shi chose this restaurant.
He sat down at the table and ordered three big pots. He ordered one serving each of pickled pepper flavor, spicy flavor, and dry pot.
Not long after, the waiter served three large plates in turn. Compared to the frogs on Saturn, the long-legged leaping frog not only had more meat on its legs, but the meat was also more tender.
The large piece of leg meat was covered in sauce and melted in his mouth.
Ning Shi enjoyed his meal. After he and Ye Hongmian enjoyed their meal, he asked, “Mian, what should I do if I want to go through actual combat training?
“How do the mecha masters on Taining Planet train their combat skills?”
Ye Hongmian took out a napkin and wiped her mouth. She said slowly, “Actually, the cost of mecha combat training isn’t high because there are virtual reality online games.
“There are many types of virtual reality online games that specialize in mecha battles. We call them the Mecha Battle Network.
“On Taining Planet, everyone engages in 100% realistic battle simulations in the Mecha Battle Network. In the virtual world, you can choose to use your real meditation technique ability and pilot various mecha that match your meditation level. You can also spend money to modify your meditation technique ability and pilot intermediate or even titled mecha.
“The mecha parameters in the battle network were 100% identical to the data in reality. Therefore, the difference between fighting in the battle network and in reality is not too big. It is a good way to accumulate combat experience.
“The armies of the major star fields are also using the battle network simulation to train their individual and joint combat abilities.
“As far as I know, with the current technological strength of the origin planet, it is completely capable of developing its own Mecha Battle Network. However, the officials have yet to develop it.
“Not only that, but the officials have also blocked all information related to the Mecha Battle Network.
“I’m not interested in politics and collusion, so I’m too lazy to think about the reason. If you want to know the specific situation, I can help you ask around.”
Ye Hongmian’s personality was like this. She was very Zen and was not interested in these scheming battles. Ning Shi waved his hand and said, “There’s no need. I know the reason. It’s probably related to the obscurity policy.”
When Ye Hongmian heard Ning Shi’s speculation, she was immediately interested. She treated it as gossip.
The corners of her mouth curled up into a beautiful arc as she pretended to be mysterious and said, “Tell me about it.”
Ning Shi had only gradually come to know the true colors of these people from the Republican Party after he had taken control of the academy recently.
These people were actually no different from nobles.
The nobles only made the issue of class surface and did not hide it. They directly told everyone that they were marquises and counts and that they were born with superior privileges.
On the other hand, the elites of the Republican Party were even more brilliant. They preached the concept of equality, but in reality, a small number of elites had always been in power to obtain benefits.
Liang Wenli, for example, could have been the principal of the academy for 28 years without any restrictions. If not for the scandal, who knew how long she would have been in office?
In fact, there was already a privileged elite class within the current Republican Party, which was no different from the privileges of the nobles.
Ning Shi explained, “You should be aware of the current situation on the origin planet. There isn’t even a single advanced mecha. Any external force can easily occupy the origin planet.
“However, there are not many resources on the origin planet. Not only would they not be able to obtain much profit after occupying it, but they would also have to be responsible for the survival of the huge population on the origin planet. They would also have to take on the arduous and thankless task of clearing out all kinds of radioactive creatures on the origin planet.
“In addition to the special political significance of the origin planet, it attracted the attention of many factions, which is why no other planet’s factions are taking the initiative to occupy the origin planet.
“This is a situation that the Norse Republic’s officials are happy to see. They hope that there will never be any external forces interfering with the development of the origin planet so that they can be the local emperors here.
“Whether it is the elites of the Norse Republic or the noble forces, they all want to lord over the origin planet. No one really wants to develop the origin planet and let it return to the interstellar society to realize the revival of the origin planet..”
