Mech: Shattering of the Galaxy

"Chubby, you ought to take another good look. Having such a big brother is truly your fortune," the young instructor known as Gu said nonchalantly as he slipped a cigar out of Chubby's hand and lit it with relish.

Chubby quietly unbuttoned one of the buttons on his white shirt, feeling like he could breathe a little easier around the belly.

Squinting those small eyes, he tried hard to focus.

"Let me see... Oh, Gu, that really is my elder brother."

Chubby rubbed his face, looking earnestly as he spoke.

Just after lighting up, Gu Yuan's hand shook, and the windproof lighter almost fell onto his clothes.

"What did you say?"

"I said... that seems to really be my big brother."

However, it looked like Chubby was not inclined to draw attention to himself by approaching the group.

So he also pulled out his Sky Communication.

On the other side of the crowd, a youngster in a hoodie and a baseball cap had stars in his eyes as he observed White Hair and, from who knows where, pulled out a camera.

"This scene, tsk tsk, is just explosive!"

Click, click, click.

The faint sound of the shutter resonated as a series of spectacular photos were perfectly captured.

...

Mu Fan looked at White Hair with a wooden expression, "If you keep this up, I'm going to kick you."

White Hair hopped back and smoothed down his hair, his head shaking like a bobblehead, "No way, my body can't take it."

Glancing at the two girls who still hadn't snapped out of their daze, Mu Fan sighed and said, "This is Yin Shuai, my friend and teammate, I really didn't expect him to... make such an entrance."

White Hair, all ears, nearly burst out laughing as he heard the last part, "Finally getting to the part about how I make an entrance, all that money spent on renting those bikes wasn't wasted."

Upon hearing this, Chuchu was stunned, incredulously asking, "You rented that motorcycle team?"

White Hair nodded as if it were the most natural thing, "My family isn't from here, I had no choice but to rent. Sweetheart, wasn't my entrance just so cool, ahahaha~"

Pfft!

Both girls burst out laughing, previously struck speechless by his imposing aura, only to find out it was a rented team.

Across from them, Lin An also heard this and nearly choked on his anger, he had thought this guy was some playboy from a rich family.

Damn, so you rented that team!

And here you were, acting all high and mighty!

Tugging at his collar, Lin An felt his anger swelling.

"I won over seventy thousand at the casino yesterday, I added another fifty thousand myself, gathering a whole Lonsisman team is no easy feat. It's a pity I couldn't find the limited edition ones to really highlight my swagger."

White Hair unzipped his jacket as he spoke, it was simply too hot to wear two layers of clothing in this weather.

Taking off the leather motorcycling jacket, revealing a casual suit and shirt underneath.

Then in front of everyone, he also removed his motorcycling leather pants, revealing the casual cropped pants he wore underneath.

"I'm dying from the heat, it's too tiring to keep up appearances like this, only on special occasions do I bother."

Fanning his face with one hand, then with a flick of his foot.

The motorcycling suit was accurately kicked backward onto the body of a Lonsisman-Orange Wing.

"Get lost," he said casually, tossing it behind.

First stunned, Lin An's face instantly reddened, fists clenched, ready to lunge.

"What the hell did you say?"

"Get lost... What's with you? I wasn't even talking to you, why are you freaking out?"

Boom boom boom~

The impressive and domineering motorcycle's orange lights came on automatically, then it zoomed away in a puff of smoke.

"I was telling it to get lost, you can't even ride it properly, psh." White Hair looked disdainfully at Lin An and turned away.

Pfft~~

Wang Nuonuo and the others, along with a few nearby people, couldn't help but burst out laughing.

Their shoulders trembling with laughter, but seeing how easily Mu Fan was handling two massive suitcases, they knew these guys were together. Lin An twisted a smile on his face and said, "Very good, very good."

Then his expression turned cold, he straightened his clothing, turned around, and walked away.

The road is long, I'm not going to let you off for the next few years, White Hair, you scoundrel!

Watching Lin An leave, White Hair turned back and muttered resentfully, "That guy is sick."

At that moment, Mu Fan's pocket buzzed again with the "beep, beep" of a call.

Another Sky Communication?

Mu Fan took it out with his right hand, "Harry?"

He answered directly.

"Hello, Mu Fan, I've arrived, wait a minute before..."

Chubby's voice was soft and nervous; he was about to say to hold off talking until they could meet up later.

When Mu Fan heard "I've arrived," his eyes swiftly scanned around and locked onto a short, chubby man in a suit, holding a Sky Communication device in one hand and clenching half a cigar in the other, all in less than five seconds.

"Harry has arrived." Mu Fan whispered to Nuonuo, then excitedly raised his hand and waved toward the chubby man, "Hey, I'm over here!"

Carrying a giant suitcase on one side and waving with the other, he stood beside an eye-catching White Hair and a genuine lively beauty.

It seemed that Mu Fan had forgotten that he was already the center of attention.

Thus, everyone's gaze followed Mu Fan's eyes and straightly locked onto the chubby man.

"It's over."

"Damn." Gu Yuan took a big step back, his nimble move catching the chubby man off guard.

Dressed in a lecturer's attire, Gu Yuan blended into the crowd, unlike the conspicuous chubby man.

So with a Sky Communication in hand, the chubby man's face began to stream with cold sweat.

Bro, can you let me finish talking?

However, it was clear Mu Fan's actions had already answered him—no.

Looking at the smiles on the faces of Mu Fan, Nuonuo, and White Hair, as well as... White Hair's enigmatic smile.

The chubby man shivered and dryly said into the Sky Communication, "I'll come over now."

Then, for the first time, the chubby man enjoyed the treatment of being the center of attention.

Nervously straightening his little suit and sucking in his belly, he shuffled over.

"Let me introduce you, this is my good brother, Harry," Mu Fan said, patting the chubby man's shoulder as he addressed White Hair.

"Yin Shuai here, brother, you seem quite well-off," White Hair extended a hand, which the chubby man grasped nervously.

There was no helping it; the earlier scene had been too scary.

"OK, I didn't expect us to all be here so early. Let's head over to the registration area ahead; it's about time," Wang Nuonuo said, clearly in a good mood, with a curved moon crescent smile reappearing.

Accordingly, the group led by Mu Fan, who was carrying the suitcase, headed toward the main entrance of Dingwu Gate.

Because Mu Fan saw a reception sign there, with upperclassmen in student uniforms standing below.

"All of you here for registration? Student, we can help transport your suitcase," said a senior sister, pointing at a nearby floating robot slightly stunned.

"Oh, there's such a service too?" At the very moment the senior sister's heart skipped, Mu Fan flicked his hand and the huge suitcase neatly landed on top of it.

"Mu Fan, I haven't seen you in a month; how come I feel you've become even more incredible?" the chubby man said, wiping sweat off his forehead.

Haven't seen for a month huh... you're really weak, chubby.

Sighing, White Hair patted the chubby man's shoulder without a word.

"Please show your admission letters."

Three admission notices appeared, and the senior sister looked at the empty-handed Mu Fan and White Hair.

The two exchanged glances and took out their Special Training Base Identity Cards as a signal, "We only have these."

Reserve special recruitment Identity Cards!?

The senior sister stared at them in shock.

Mu Fan was understandable, but White Hair too?

"Senior sister, please hurry up with the procedures."

"Oh, just a moment."

Shortly after, a light screen was projected.

[Mu Fan: Mecha Academy

Yin Shuai: Microelectronics Department

Harry: Combat Logistics Department

Wang Nuonuo: Ship Command Department

Ling Chuchu: Ship Medical Department]

"Uh, any questions?" The senior sister noticed the puzzled look on White Hair's face.

White Hair, still dazed, poked Mu Fan, "Why am I in the Microelectronics Department?"

"Yesterday, the base announced our majors; we couldn't choose them, they were assigned directly. You went straight to the casino, so you didn't know."

"Damn! Then why is yours so cool, ending with 'Academy'?"

"I don't know either." Mu Fan's sharp reply left White Hair speechless.

"There are electronic maps on both sides; please go to your respective areas for admission and dormitory procedures."

The senior sister smiled and pointed behind her, where a crowd of young men and women buzzed energetically.
