The Most Powerful Brain in the Interstellar Space

Chapter 253 Where is R256?

"That... is impossible?!" In the instructors' section, teachers from combat individual combat, command, and even mecha and reconnaissance departments almost simultaneously raised this question.

That was just a laser gun used as a teaching aid; even with bullets, its effectiveness was destined to be incomparable to a real firearm. How did they manage that?!

With the same firearms, most standard rifles in StarCraft can achieve a range of 10 to 13.5 kilometers, which is the current range of the latest standard rifles in StarCraft. If the shooter's assistance is stronger, this average range can be increased by an additional 1.5 kilometers.

There are many versions of laser guns used as teaching aids, but they are largely similar, achieving nearly 90% structural accuracy in their construction. However, to protect student safety and facilitate gun control, their specifications and effectiveness are reduced to 1/10 or even less of a real firearm, and the degree of injury they can cause is also limited.

In other words, if a participant can shoot a laser gun 1.5 kilometers using this teaching aid, they are already considered a strong person.

Jiang Hui and Huan Xian's actions were so impressive that they managed to shoot enemies two or three kilometers away with these laser guns. The most unbelievable part was the final battle against the T376 squad, where they were not just two kilometers away, but nearly three kilometers away. Huan Xian didn't even have to lift a finger in this round, practically letting Jiang Hui take them all out by himself.

Moreover, this wasn't a one-off or two-off incident.

In less than twenty minutes, they watched as this team used 'divine skill' to shoot and eliminate five squads that came one after another.

During this period, Jiang Hui and Huan Xian were often unable to "see" the enemy with their naked eyes; they relied entirely on their mental power to lock onto them.

The other three teams that managed to sneak in also fell victim to R186's clutches. Two were taken down by Clarence alone, and the other was dealt with by Hillman and Zhou Xiuwen while they were chatting.

All eight squads that had made their way here have perished here.

If they hadn't seen it with their own eyes, no one present would have believed that this was a level that incoming freshmen, who hadn't even undergone proper training, could reach. This is monster!

Lin Qi and the others went from being surprised at the beginning to getting used to it now.

He opened his mouth as if to say something, but in the end he said nothing. He just asked the silent person not far away in a low voice, "Captain Stark, is the mental strength level of this person in your class really only A-level? Isn't that a bit too much..." So, could it be that the test was wrong, and the other party might be, possibly S-level, Lin Qi added in his heart.

“R36、R321、R98、R129、T376……一共八支队伍都是前后脚被淘汰的，共同点是他们不久前都经过了L4。”阿里斯看着地图喃喃道。

Based on their distance, they should all have perished at the edge of the L6-L11 line, and judging from their motives, they were more likely to have been killed by the group at L11. Although there was no concrete evidence, Aris still felt this way; his intuition was usually very accurate and rarely wrong.

Did none of them escape?
Of the ten teams that passed through L4, except for the two that appeared at the other two resource points shortly afterward, the other eight were eliminated in almost the order in which they left L4, suggesting that the time between their eliminations was not too far apart.

If all these people were taken down by the L11 squad, then it can be roughly inferred that R186's time to eliminate each team is incredibly short, possibly even zero time difference. There are still over thirty stars left to be scored on the next run. At that time, we'll know which squad fell to whom by looking at the results, but I can't think of any other team besides that one.

"Brother! What are you still looking at? Hurry up! This road is dangerous. Even a slight deviation or delay could lead to encountering dangerous enemies. It's better to get out of here quickly," Pavla reminded her brother, who was staring intently at the map.

Actually, she didn't want to bother him at all. Although her brother Ares's mental strength level was only B-grade, he was much smarter than her; it seemed like all that intelligence had been transferred to him in the womb. She usually listened to her brother's words.

Since the start of the competition, the command of the entire team has almost entirely fallen on this member who is slightly weaker in physical strength and even mental ability. However, their results are no worse than those of the stronger teams. Aris always manages to lead them to a relatively calm and stable path amidst a world full of dangers.

Unbeknownst to them, the team members grew to trust and rely on their captain more and more.

However, although he knew that the other party was definitely observing the situation and considering what to do next.

As she said, the situation at the various energy points is now chaotic and not as clear as it was at the beginning. This is the third energy point they have headed to. Unfortunately, the first two in a row are low-value energy points, which cannot meet the charging requirements of the simulation bra, so the group has to find another way out.

They were just 40% short of completing their charge—just one more energy point. They hoped the next quota wouldn't disappoint. Therefore, they didn't want any mistakes, and even less did they want to run into those bloodthirsty killers.

Ares looked away, preparing to continue on his way, when he heard Pavla look up in surprise and say, "Huh? L11...L11 is empty!"

The boy suddenly looked up: "Are they gone, or..." The group all looked at the leaderboard next to them, only to see that the members of the R186 team still had their rankings lit up. They were unsure whether to feel disappointed or relieved.

They must have finished charging and left... I thought the battle had ended over there without them knowing.

Although they were destined not to see it no matter what, knowing that they had missed such a good show, a sense of loss inevitably welled up in the hearts of the group.

However, speaking of which, R186 has been stationed in L11 for quite a long time, probably over forty star points, which is about the same time they arrived in L11... Hmm? Aris seemed to remember something and widened his eyes slightly.

Yes, Jiang Hui and his group must have had over forty stars at the L11 charging point, attracting a lot of prey and drawing a lot of attention.

But before the R186 appeared, what happened to the other squad that swept the training grounds? What about R256? Where did they go?
Jiang Hui and the others had about forty stars to charge in L11, while R256 disappeared for just as long—or even longer, not appearing on the map for more than a full star.

If they were looking for an energy point, they should have found it by now, considering they changed locations three times in the meantime. So why hasn't R256 appeared at the second energy point yet?
There is only one explanation—they went straight to L11, traversing half of the charging point area from L7 to L11.

Now that R186 has already left L11, what about Holly and the others? It's about time... Will they miss each other or run into each other?
