PLAINTEXT

Given the situation, Green Star might descend into chaos at the hands of Alien Warriors even before the Si'er civilization makes its move. Once Green Star descends into chaos, the vanguard of the Si'er civilization, currently at a standoff with Green Star, might seize the opportunity to launch another attack...

Sitting at his desk, Duge casually flipped through the desktop computer, scanning through Green Star's trending information and trying to find any trace of other Alien Warriors, while at the same time, he mentally simulated the future developments of the situation.

He was the first to be exposed.

Once he could no longer take the initiative and his real-world location was compromised, he faced a high probability of being attacked, or even without a concerted attack, a few long-range missiles fired in his direction, covering Capital University indistinguishably, might prevent him from escaping.

Duge knew Alien Warriors best; they were unscrupulous in achieving their objectives.

In a world with advanced technology, Alien Warriors could enhance their attributes faster, but correspondingly, the level of danger also soared. The power of technological weaponry was too great and impossible to fully guard against.

Without resorting to Divine Power, only skills and attributes could ensure his safety.

...

With that thought, Duge hesitated no longer. He got up from his room and headed straight for the principal's office.

High-profile work, low-profile life.

The huge upheaval he caused on the war network would inevitably draw upper-level scrutiny.

So, before they could find him, by proactively revealing his whereabouts, he could minimize the risk of exposure and stay in line with the principle of keeping a low profile.

...

Before the Federation was established, Imperial University was ranked as one of the top universities of the Dragon City Empire.

After the Federation was established, Imperial University ranked within the top fifty among all universities in the Federation, making it a world-class institution.

The principal of Imperial University was named Tang Houming, a top expert in Mecha Dynamo Studies. He had led the improvement of the energy system for the tenth-generation mecha. Not only was he a university principal, but he was also an academician of the Science Academy and held the position of Deputy Minister of Education.

His resume was indeed impressive.

Such a heavyweight figure had the ear of the highest authority.

...

But as an ordinary student in the Mech Combat Department, it was very difficult to get an audience with the principal.

However, this wasn't a problem for Duge.

He bypassed the security at the teaching building and arrived at the principal's secretary's office. By simply stating that he was "Kill One Every Ten Steps" and after his account had been verified by the secretary, he was taken, with a shocked look from the secretary, to the principal's office.

The secretary was highly efficient. By the time Duge was on his way to the principal, all of his information was already laid out on the principal's desk.

"Lin Hong, you're a student from the Mech Repair Department?" Tang Houming pushed his glasses up on the bridge of his nose and looked at Duge with a skeptical expression, asking.

"Yes, Principal," Duge nodded and said.

"You once applied to the Mech Combat Department but were transferred to the Mech Repair Department because your physique and spiritual power were not up to standard. Yet, your performance on the war network shows a combative strength that greatly differs from your exhibit during the tests," Tang Houming observed Duge, asking, "Can you tell me what has happened over the past half year?"

"Principal Tang, what I'm about to tell you is of great importance, concerning the future of the entire Green Star. If possible, I would like you to contact the President of the Federation; I will reveal everything." Duge glanced at the secretary who had brought him in and said, "However, before that, I hope Principal Tang will help me keep the identity of 'Kill One Every Ten Steps' confidential, because the secrets I'm about to disclose could potentially endanger my life."

Tang Houming frowned and said, "Lin Hong, it's not easy to meet the President, even if you are 'Kill One Every Ten Steps.' Tell me what it's about first, and then I'll decide whether to inform the President..."

"I am not from this world." Duge looked at Tang Houming and got straight to the point, "There are over a thousand others like me on this planet."

"What?" Tang Houming questioned as if he hadn't heard clearly.

"Principal Tang, the Si'er civilization has already invaded Green Star. It shouldn't be hard to understand that another alien civilization is infiltrating Green Star in a different way! Otherwise, how do you explain a run-of-the-mill Mech Repair Department student suddenly possessing combat skills on par with an ace pilot within six months?"

Duge shrugged and said, "At Imperial University, I had no way of getting a mecha, which is why I used Sea Swallow to make such a mark on the war network. It was all to draw your attention and add some credibility to my own identity."

The secretary pursed his lips subconsciously, his eyes filled with disbelief as he looked at Duge's back.

Tang Houming watched Duge: "How can you prove it?"

"The secretary behind me is pursing his lips, his heartbeat is eighty-three beats per minute. Secretary Zhang, you can make some other gesture, like waving a hand or something," Duge instructed, smiling, his back still to the secretary.

The secretary hesitated for a moment and then made a minimal gesture, raising three fingers.

Under the cover of divine consciousness, Duge was fully aware of the secretary's movements, and at the same time, he made the same hand signal. Because his actions did not match the relevant keywords, his attributes barely increased.

Not having enhanced attributes limited his perception.

But Duge's spiritual power was so great that it involuntarily altered Lin Hong's physique, and perceiving things within a ten-meter radius was still no problem.

The secretary shook his head, and Duge mimicked the motion; the secretary lifted a foot, and Duge did the same.

A few times over.

Duge stopped imitating the secretary's movements: "Principal, do you believe me now? If time allows, I could even control Sea Swallow in the real world to demonstrate dodging missile techniques for you. Right now, many people are looking for me, and if they publicize my identity, all I've done will be for nothing. Plus, the skills of 'Kill One Every Ten Steps' are enough to catch the President's attention, aren't they?"
