The Most Powerful Brain in the Interstellar Space

Jiang Hui pushed aside the boom arm that was propping up beside his ear, pulled his fist out of the ground with a "bang," and then, with a fairly familiar movement, quickly dissected the cockpit in the middle of the body.

Her judgment was largely correct; the mecha was essentially ruined. Almost all the joints related to control were damaged, and the engine was internally damaged in the violent collision. The only arm that could move had just played its last role—by "greeting" Jiang Hui.

Looking at the people stuck inside the cabin by various misaligned parts, Jiang Hui breathed a sigh of relief. Good luck.

The outcome of capturing the enemy leader was already predetermined when the two leaders stepped forward to face off. Judging from past experience, G would probably not keep such a powerful and uncontrollable prisoner, so many people present thought that L would probably be kicked out of the leadership in the next moment.

however--

Amidst the various speculations of the onlookers, the victor did not strangle the person as everyone guessed. Instead, he painstakingly dismantled the cabin, fished the person out, and held him in his hands.

Team G & Team L: ! ? ? ?
Why does this scene have such an eerie sense of familiarity? It feels like I've seen it somewhere before.
Clarence has passed out. His health bar should be almost empty, or at least at the elimination threshold. It seems he won't be able to wake up and leave the battlefield anytime soon.

By this time, the battlefield was nearing its end. With L's complete defeat, the enemy's defeat was irreversible. Only a small group of people were still fighting desperately to break through the enemy's defenses. No one cared about the fate of their former leader anymore.

The massive mech looked down at the person curled up in its palm, then opened the hatch and let the person in.

People off-screen & eyewitnesses: ? ? ?

--------------

When Clarence awoke, the cabin was brightly lit, and hundreds of commands scrolled across the screen, making it difficult to read clearly. The figure sitting at the control panel was unfamiliar, yet seemed like a familiar shadow from the past.

It feels like ages since we last saw each other, even though we only parted ways recently.

Clarence shifted slightly and noticed something soft behind him, as if something had been placed on it. He realized that he was actually sitting with a makeshift cushion behind him. His body felt relaxed, without any obvious pain, but the exhaustion from mental exhaustion was immediately apparent. Even the slightest movement of his fingers revealed a weariness that emanated from within.

There was only one person in the mech cabin, and it goes without saying who placed him there.

Since I've already lost, and the other party has seen me in all sorts of embarrassing situations.

Clarence simply didn't move, sprawling on the cushion in a lazy posture that he would never normally display in public. Well, although what he thought was laziness was just a slightly slumped back, relaxed shoulders, and a slightly loosened sitting posture, it was still considered impolite by the extremely polite Clarence.

Jiang Hui heard the movement behind him and knew that the person had woken up, but since he hadn't finished what he was doing, he let him adjust his breathing on his own.

Once the battle was finally coming to a complete end, Jiang Hui gave 556 his final instructions before letting out a sigh of relief and glancing at the person behind him who had been awake for quite some time.

"Are you awake?"

"The 358th time." Lost. "."

Jiang Hui rubbed her forehead, thinking, "There's really no need to remember it so clearly."

Yes, Clarence always keeps track of the score whenever he loses a duel with her, regardless of the size of the match. He only counts the losses, not the wins.
How can you be a friend like that? If Jiang Hui didn't know this friend's personality well, she would have thought that the other person actually had a grudge against her.

Honestly, every time the other person gave her such a number after the deal was done, it made her feel really awkward. Oh well, this guy wouldn't listen to anything she said, he was very insistent, so let him do whatever he wanted, anyway—she didn't want to lose.

"The 358th time." Victory.

"There are about three stars left. There's not much left here. We just need to wrap things up. Is there anything else you need to do?" Jiang Hui asked.

Clarence shook his head. He had mobilized his entire force, completely depleting his rear support, to fight Jiang Hui. Having achieved his goal, the rest was no longer important.

If he wasn't mistaken, the personnel left behind had already fallen into the hands of the northwest faction, and there was no point in going back. With only three stars left in total, it was about time.

However, he could lead the way if the other party needed it.

Hearing this, Jiang Hui shook her head. Although this place wasn't far from the central region, a round trip would still take a considerable amount of time, perhaps even more than half of three stars' worth of time. Moreover, that area was unfamiliar territory for her and her teammates; the journey was uncertain, and they didn't know what powerful enemies they might encounter. Even with Clarence as their guide, they were still at a disadvantage overall.

Moreover, in such a short time, if she encounters a strong enemy and only has a few stars left in the tournament, the two of them might be kicked out of the venue halfway through the fight. Wouldn't that cause a heart attack?
Therefore, Jiang Hui's judgment was the same as Clarence's: there was no need to go back to the central region.

However, after her battle with Clarence, the South was now unified, and it seemed a waste to let them squander a few stars.

Although she couldn't see her score, given everything that had happened, Jiang Hui vaguely felt that she should be able to pass. However, she didn't understand the scoring criteria, and the system hadn't reported any numbers from beginning to end, so she couldn't be sure of her score, let alone what other people's scores were.

Unable to assess their performance in this unified entrance examination and unsure if it qualifies them for their ideal schools, they can only strive to obtain as many points as possible. Therefore, regardless of the remaining time, they should not stop as long as they have the energy.

Clarence reminded Jiang Hui of this, and she quickly came up with a general plan.

She looked at the person who had suddenly fallen silent and smiled, "Since—there's nothing to do, then please help me out." Although it was a question, her expression was confident, as if she knew the other person would definitely agree.

"It's what you wish for."
