I farmed in military academy and crushed the entire intergalactic world.

Chapter 88's trouble was enormous.

A heaven, a hell.

For Melina, this day will be unforgettable.

The StarNet assessment, which she staked her entire political career on, appeared to be a great success, especially the performances of Lin Xiaohe and the fourth StarNet candidate, which were particularly outstanding.

These are all political achievements!

What's even more exciting is that, with Master Leander's stamp of certification, Lin Xiaohe is the youngest and most promising Stardust Plant Manipulator in the history of the Federation!
Although her son Weasley had offended Lin Xiaohe, Weasley was quick to kneel down, making him Lin Xiaohe's number one fanboy!
Everything looked so beautiful and thriving.

But cruel fate, like a terrible jerk, will always push you into the abyss when you're happiest.

"Is it only Gabriel who hasn't woken up? Or are all the examinees still unconscious?"

In the parliament hall, Melina's expression was gloomy, and her brows furrowed with barely suppressed anxiety.

The fourth star ring leader and council members are on their way.

The area around the parliament hall is under complete lockdown. Anyone who has recently entered or exited the parliament hall, whether staff or members of parliament, has been detained.

All staff members of the Fourth Star Ring Branch of the [Super Yuan Group], which was responsible for providing the Star Network connection to the whole-body capsule, were taken to a detention center for questioning.

The officer in charge of the interrogation said coldly, "Through investigating your communication records, we've discovered something interesting. Someone instructed you to tamper with your full-body capsule."

The branch manager of [Chaoyuan Group] was sweating profusely. His heart felt like it was being gripped tightly by a pair of large hands, and he felt like he couldn't breathe.

He licked his dry lips, a hint of struggle flashing in his eyes.

Thinking of his lovely daughter, he took a deep breath: "Yes, that sir did indeed instruct us to tamper with the entire body compartment."

The officer pressed, "What did you do?!"

The manager gave a wry smile: "How dare we do anything? That official is targeting a candidate favored by Marshal Chu. If something really happens, that official might not be punished, but we'll be in big trouble."

"Besides, we're just ordinary working people. We just want to make a living. There's no need for us to do anything illegal or against the rules."

Mentioning this, the manager started ranting: "Do you know how expensive a full-body capsule is? The Ministry of Education ordered the [Neuromancer], which costs 120 million Star Coins. According to the contract, if it causes significant damage, we have to pay double the amount! We couldn't afford to pay that even if we sold our whole family!"

That official is utterly inconsiderate. He only knows how to give orders and doesn't take responsibility for the aftermath. Who would dare to do this job?!
The officer, his head throbbing from the grumbling, interrupted him: "So, you didn't do anything?"

The manager lowered his head, looking guilty, and said, "That sir isn't stupid. We just opened a backdoor in the StarNet connection port of the entire cabin to appease him. But I swear to God, we absolutely didn't use that backdoor to do anything!"

They're really just used to fool idiots.

Thinking of the company employee who had been arrested, the manager asked anxiously, "Officer, is there something wrong with the exam venue?"

"Don't ask questions you shouldn't ask!"

The police officer quickly uploaded the report; a whole bunch of political bigwigs were waiting for it.

At this moment, Melina was so enraged that she wanted to kill someone.

It's that big shot again! Is this never going to end?!

"Quickly send someone to investigate the backdoor in the StarNet link."

The fourth star ring commander rushed in: "A bunch of military academy principals and the Minister of Education called to ask me if there was a problem with the StarNet exam venue. Melina, I hope you can give me an explanation as soon as possible."

Melina's expression was cold: "All the candidates who were eliminated in the early stages have successfully woken up, and after examination, they are all in good health. However, since Johnson left the capital, all the eliminated candidates have fallen into a coma."

"What did the doctor say?" "Their mental state is a mess, they've completely lost their self-awareness. The doctor advised against leaving the full-body chamber."

The Fourth Star Ring let out a long breath and said meaningfully, "Melina, I am about to be promoted to the Third Star Ring, and I don't want any accidents to happen."

"I understand, Director Huan. Based on the current investigation, it should be Chaoyuan Group that did it."

"What... what a despicable fellow." The leader of the Fourth Star Ring made a private phone call, his eyes blazing with anger.

……

In the first star ring, a handsome man was humming a tune, plucking the [Whale Sound] plucked at his fingers; the music was captivating.

A smile played on his lips, and his eyes and brows were full of joy.

He loves Hai Gexing, who is his lucky star and always makes his wishes come true.

"Snapped!"

He was slapped hard, and just as he was about to get angry, he met a pair of cold, emotionless eyes.

He pursed his lips, his eyes filled with resentment and bitterness, but he had to endure the humiliation and whisper, "Dad."

The man opposite him looked down at him with icy eyes, his gaze devoid of any warmth: "Did you do what happened in the exam hall?"

He nodded slightly: "I did it."

His father didn't say anything, but simply stretched out one hand, palm open.

"Father?! You're going to punish me with family law for the sake of a lowly commoner?!" His eyes were filled with disbelief, and his body trembled slightly as if by reflex.

"Lin Xiaohe is no longer a lowly commoner. She is now a Stardust Plant Manipulator and a student recognized by Marshal Chu."

"So what?! Our family also has Stardust Plant Manipulators!"

The electric whip lashed him mercilessly, and he lay on the ground convulsing, his teeth clenched into his lips, his mouth filled with the taste of blood and rust.

He looked at his father with resentment and fear.

He's always like that, looking at me like I'm a piece of trash!
"Take back that helpless, angry look in your eyes." Accompanied by a whip strike even more ferocious than before, the man's words seemed to be mixed with ice shards.

"You're always so foolish. If you can't stand Lin Xiaohe, you shouldn't have given her a chance to rise again. In the Sixth Star Ring, killing someone is so easy! But since you've chosen to bow down to the title of 'Special Recruitment of the Central Military Academy,' you shouldn't keep picking fights with her. You should smile and be friends with her."

The man put down the whip and rubbed his delicate wrist.

He looked at his son lying on the ground like a dead dog with pity, and sighed, "Tsk, I really don't want to admit that you are my son. I told your mother a long time ago that you can't keep a child conceived naturally, because his genes will be full of defects."

“Byard, if the council traces you back to this, I hope you will bravely step forward and not damage the reputation of the Super Yuan Group.”

Bayard laughed wildly; he knew it all along, he was always the first one to be abandoned!
"Don't worry, Dad."

The man gave him a rare kind look: "What a good boy. Okay, tell Daddy, what did you do through the StarNet backdoor? It's amazing technology; even the Federation's Red Hackers can't do anything about it."

Bayard's smile froze on his face, his eyes revealing a blank expression.

He didn't do anything. Wasn't it someone from Chaoyuan Group who was in charge of this matter?
All he needs to do is give orders.
