After faking her death in interstellar space, the powerful woman disguised herself as a man and went

A group of freshmen boarded the Thorn in an orderly manner, underwent security checks one by one, and then stood on the deck under the instructions of the warship's dedicated AI, "Rose".

Yangon, hidden in Leng Ran's collar, and Blue Moon, concealed at his waist, passed through inspection smoothly thanks to the storm's deliberate leniency and were successfully brought aboard the warship.

After everyone boarded the ship, "Rose's" gentle voice rang out: "Fellow students of Storm Military Academy, I am Rose, the AI ​​of the Thorn Ship. Welcome to our ship."

"The Thorn is a first-class combat warship, equipped with the Federation's most advanced defense system and long-range firepower. I will now briefly introduce the areas where students can move around; areas not mentioned are restricted zones."

"The areas available for activity are: the third-floor restaurant, physical training room, virtual reality training room, and arena area; the second-floor observation deck and cabin area; and part of the first-floor deck area and cabin area."

"Please note that the mental training room is closed, and entry into the mecha warehouse, weapons warehouse, and heavy weapons installation area is strictly prohibited."

"Furthermore, private duels are prohibited on the Thorn. If you wish to spar, please proceed to the arena area."

"The estimated time for this voyage is seventy hours and forty-four minutes. The Thorn will take off in one hour. Please remain in your respective cabins until the Thorn has entered outer space smoothly before you are free to move around."

Following Qiangwei's instructions, the new students received their own cabin access cards and living supplies packages in turn.

He Xiting glanced at Leng Ran and Yue Qiufeng's cabin numbers: "Ah, the three of us aren't even sitting together!"

Yue Qiufeng said in a deep voice, "There are still two I haven't asked. They might be together."

"Yes."

He Xiting quickly turned on his personal terminal and contacted Zhao Yuheng and Gao Xiao, only to receive a negative answer, which left him feeling somewhat dejected.

"Try to look on the bright side; at least we're all on the first floor," Leng Ran replied coldly. "But, Father, are you also going to Anning Star this time?"

If she wasn't mistaken, after He Yuanyang's mobilization speech, he didn't leave the warship but went into the cabin.

He Xiting said sullenly, "Well, although there is no war, Father goes to inspect a few border stars every two years. It just so happens that the freshmen training camp chose Anning Star, so we might as well go and take a look together."

Leng Ran suddenly realized: "So it's a routine."

It seems she was overthinking it.

Yue Qiufeng, holding the bag of supplies in his hands, said, "Go put your things away first, see you later."

Leng Ran and He Xiting expressed their agreement.

The passenger cabins of the Thorn are located on the first and second floors, adjacent to the mech warehouse and the connected mech ejection area, ensuring that combat personnel can quickly launch attacks in emergencies.

Each cabin is very small, containing only a hard bed and a small wardrobe, barely enough to accommodate one person.

But this suited Leng Ran's mind perfectly.

Carrying her supplies bag, Leng Ran walked briskly towards her room. Along the way, she encountered many students carrying similar supplies bags, who greeted her warmly but did not disturb her too much.

After all, they are classmates now, and there's a long road ahead for them.

"Brother Li! It's nice to see you again!"

Leng Ran looked in the direction of the voice and saw it was Ai Anbang.

Thanks to Leng Ran's help, even though Ai Anbang's performance in the first two rounds of the entrance exam was mediocre, his eighth-place ranking in the points competition was enough to get him into Storm Military Academy, which was an unexpected bonus for him.

Beside Ai Anbang was Lu Tianyun, the lucky one who landed the final blow on the Starflame Dragon in the points competition.

Upon seeing Leng Ran, Lu Tianyun's eyes lit up, and he followed Ai Anbang over.

His luck is as good as ever today! He actually ran into the living Mo Li again!

Lu Tianyun stepped forward and said, "Brother Li! I didn't have a chance to properly introduce myself to you during the last points competition. My name is Lu Tianyun, and I'm from the Bright Moon Star in the Immortal Cloud Galaxy. I'm a huge fan of yours!"

He smiled coldly: "Hello, Lu Tianyun."

She still had some impression of this lucky person, but she didn't know their name.

Ai Anbang asked excitedly, "Brother Li, what's your cabin number?"

He answered calmly and truthfully: "135".

Ai Anbang looked at Lu Tianyun with a complicated expression: "Tianyun, you said you've always been lucky, and this time I really believe it."

Lu Tianyun incredulously produced his access card, which read "137".

Leng Ran also found it quite a coincidence: "It seems we're neighbors."

According to the cabin layout of the Thorn, 135's neighbors should be 133 and 137, while 136 is opposite.

After the last qualifying round ended, while fleeing the crowd, she slipped and fell right in front of Lu Tianyun. This time, she briefly became his neighbor again.

This made Leng Ran sigh with admiration, realizing that fate was truly wondrous.

From Lu Tianyun's perspective, all of this was arranged by fate!

As the chosen one of this world, he naturally needs powerful teammates! The great Mo Li before him is someone specially prepared for him by the heavens!

Thinking of this, Lu Tianyun's gaze became even more eager: "Brother Li, let's go together!"

Leng Ran: "Let's go."

Following the indicator lights provided by Rose, the two quickly found the room.

Lu Tianyun glanced at his personal terminal: "We'll probably take off in about fifteen minutes. I won't disturb Brother Li's rest any longer. Let's go to the cafeteria for lunch together after takeoff!"

Leng Ran: "Sure, see you next time."

Leng Ran then swiped his access card to open the cabin door and entered the cabin with the supplies package.

The cabin was indeed very cramped, with not much room to move around, and the hard bed... was really just a metal plate.

Leng Ran tried lying down and was surprised to find that the metal plate was actually a bit flexible, with a "mattress" effect, and felt very similar to the texture of the Yangon Rabbit.

Although the bed was still quite hard, it wasn't particularly uncomfortable to lie on.

Considering it was a private room, Leng Ran was still quite satisfied.

Yang Guang, who had been hiding inside Leng Ran's collar, flew out and whispered in her ear, "Your Highness, we've already scanned the room, and there are no surveillance devices. However, perhaps to increase the soldiers' vigilance, the walls here are not very soundproof."

Upon hearing this, Leng Ran replied to Yangon via telepathy: "Yes, I understand. When I'm not around, Yangon, you need to be careful to hide yourself."

Yangon shook his ears to indicate that he understood, then landed on Lengran's bedside.

Leng Ran took out the bed sheets and blankets from the supply pack, made the bed, lay down on it, and checked the messages on the personal terminal.

The latest message came from Qishan.

"I was a bit busy today and didn't have time to see you off, but I can still make up for it with a farewell gift now."

【安宁星.hgc】

"Here's a holographic map of Anning Star. You might find it useful. Have fun!"

He typed a reply indifferently: "Thanks."

She then opened the map, and a holographic projection of Anning Star appeared in front of her.

This is a purely geographical map of Anning Star, without marking the locations of the garrison's bases.

Leng Ran glanced around and saw that Anning Star had scarce water resources, with most of its area covered by desert. Its atmosphere was similar to that of other inhabited planets, enough to support normal breathing.

She didn't understand why Qishan would give her such a geographical map, so she saved the map first, closed the chat window with Qishan, and returned to the message interface.

Suddenly, a new group called "I'm the best at beating up alien beasts" appeared in the message list.

Leng Ran clicked on it, completely bewildered.

It turns out that it was his good brother He Xiting who set up the group chat.

[XiXi is the coolest]: (Cat peeking out.jpg) If we can't get together in person, let's chat online!

[Yuheng Star]: Are you all in your rooms? Let's rest first, so you won't feel uncomfortable during takeoff.

【骁不善战】：What kind of **group name is this? He Xiting, you are truly something else.

[Autumn Wind]: Asleep.

[XiXi is the coolest]: Don't go! Let's get hyped! Chat with me!

Leng Ran lay on the bed, watching the interactions in the group chat, and chuckled.

It's so good to not have to fight alone.

Rose: "The Thorns will be taking off in one minute. The cabin doors are locked. If you experience severe discomfort during the evacuation from Stormstar, please take the emergency pills in your supply pack."

Leng Ran sent a final message using his personal terminal.

[Able to eat and fight]: See you after takeoff, my buddies.
