Chapter 899 - 918: Strongly Suspect This Juju Is the Girlfriend of One of Our Major Generals

Inside the main conference room of the Sixth Legion.

This was a massive venue capable of accommodating a hundred thousand people. Those gathered here today were all new recruits selected from elite military units and various Federation military academies. They had only joined the legion a few days ago. Officer Mo Xin, who had taken over as the new recruit instructor, had already subjected them to five days of rigorous iron-willed training to test whether this batch of "newcomers" was qualified—whether they possessed robust physiques and resolute minds. By and large, they had passed the test.

Originally, with a five-day cycle, today should have been the day the legion distributed Spirit Nourishing Liquid and granted them half a day off. However, before dismissing them, Mo Xin mysteriously announced that there would be a special activity today and told everyone to look forward to it.

Since their instructor was hyping it up, everyone was naturally full of anticipation. A group of grown men had been discussing it from last night until today:

"Do you think they’re going to show us a Level 3S Mecha? If we perform well, maybe we can touch it and take a photo?"

"Or is Admiral Mo Si coming?"

"Maybe they’re selecting squad leaders with a pre-match PK?"

"Why are you all discussing this? Couldn’t it just mean our time off is canceled?"

"..."

The people who had been happily chatting instantly froze. Given Mo Xin’s typical antics, that was entirely possible.

Arriving today with apprehensive hearts, they hadn’t expected that after the morning training, they would actually come here for... a meeting? Good heavens, the thing they hated most was meetings.

Everyone whispered among themselves for a moment. Soon, Mo Xin’s voice echoed through the entire conference room via the microphone. "Logically speaking, you would normally be on leave at this time, so there’s no need to be so tense.

"In a moment, I will turn on this central screen. Everyone, remember to connect your terminals to it. Our Military Department is exploring a new method to distribute Spirit Nourishing Liquid to you all. Today serves as a test run, so everyone, give it a try first."

Since they were technically on leave, that meant they could chat. People immediately started talking to those next to them, wondering what this "new method" of distributing Spirit Nourishing Liquid could possibly be.

This strange situation was quickly explained after the screen turned on. In the center of the screen appeared someone many of the recruits were familiar with—Jiang Qiuqiu. Even if others didn’t know her, those who graduated from the Mecha Single Soldier System at Federation University definitely did.

So, the news announced by the Military Research Institute was true? As veterans who were well-versed in Healing Spiritual Power and the Mecha Department, they didn’t view the Military Research Institute’s Level 3S certification with the same fanaticism as ordinary people. After all, classified personnel of this type weren’t unprecedented. There had been S-Class or 2S-Class individuals before who could also transmit some Healing Power through the network, but the amount they could transfer was incredibly minuscule. At best, it just had a slight calming effect.

Back then, the Military Research Institute had also claimed they would research it to see if they could achieve "full military coverage" via the electronic network. However, reality was cruel; after several years of research, there had been no progress. Everyone just assumed that Jiang Qiuqiu’s Level 3S status was merely an improvement over her predecessors, taking effect faster for ordinary people.

But they never expected that the Military Department actually wanted to use this to directly replace Spirit Nourishing Liquid. This... Everyone was highly skeptical about the matter.

This was especially true when the screen lit up, the livestream started, and the comments began flying across it. Watching those fluttering comments in such a solemn conference room only intensified their sense of informality and distrust. However, military orders were absolute, so everyone still obediently connected their terminals.

After connecting, the sensory transmission of scents instantly reached their minds. A portion of them suddenly felt that if it didn’t work, then it didn’t work; higher-ups would handle it if it failed. If they had to watch a livestream today, so be it—maybe they could at least "eat" something delicious.

There were quite a few who held this mindset. Then, these tough, iron-willed men simply watched Jiang Qiuqiu stir and stir the milk in the pot, stirring it until it turned into what looked like a soft and squishy fresh milk mochi.

"..."

Seeing this scene, one recruit’s face instantly twisted in agony. "Can... can this soft, mushy stuff even taste good?"

"I—I don’t like eating things with no texture."

"Yeah, yeah. It’s so weird. Why are we watching this kind of livestream here?!"

"Could it be that they chose today just to have us come and boost this person’s viewer count?"

"I’m now seriously suspecting if this streamer is some Major General’s girlfriend..."

"What’s the point of watching a livestream? We might as well be training."

On the other hand, there were also Ju people who were already Juju’s fans. Originally, they hadn’t had time to turn on their terminals due to training, but now that they could publicly fight for dishes, they were overjoyed. They were currently rubbing their hands together in anticipation, waiting to strike and snatch the food in one fell swoop.
