Shadows of the Deep Space-Chapter 670 - 364: Destiny (5 in 1)_2

At this moment, a woman dressed in a sergeant’s uniform walked up and saluted Su Ming.

"Sir, I am Sergeant Liang Han, in charge of this area. How can I assist you?"

"Notify the military department’s repair personnel to fix my mecha."

Su Ming didn’t stand on ceremony and directly instructed Liang Han.

"Yes, sir."

Liang Han replied respectfully.

"By the way, where do I report for my training?"

Su Ming continued to ask.

Liang Han was taken aback by Su Ming’s words. Generally, officers coming here for training were quite old; she hadn’t expected someone as young as Su Ming to be here for advanced training. She quickly responded.

"Sir, I’m not entirely sure either. But there’s an officer lying on that bench over there who seems to be in charge of receiving trainees. You can ask him."

"Thank you."

Having heard Liang Han’s words, Su Ming started walking toward the bench.

He hadn’t walked far before he saw a young man in a lieutenant’s uniform, wearing glasses, lying on a metal bench.

Su Ming stopped in front of the young man and looked down at him.

The young man, who was half-asleep, saw Su Ming and was startled. He quickly got up from the bench and nervously spoke.

"Hello, I am Lieutenant Kamoto. Is there something you need?"

"I’m here for advanced training."

Su Ming replied calmly.

"Are you General Su Ming?"

Kamoto adjusted his glasses and took a closer look at Su Ming. The more he looked, the more he felt that Su Ming was the general he was supposed to receive, and he immediately asked in a panic.

"Yes."

"I apologize, General. I’ve been waiting here for several days for you and hadn’t seen you arrive."

"It’s fine. Thank you for your hard work. Where do I report?"

"It’s not hard at all, General. You need to report to the Federation Cosmic Army Headquarters. I’ll take you there."

"Alright!"

Su Ming then followed Kamoto as they left.

Soon, Kamoto led Su Ming to a parking area where a military SUV was parked.

"Sir, please!"

Kamoto quickly opened the door to the passenger seat.

Su Ming got in without hesitation.

Kamoto closed the door, hurriedly got into the car, and then started the vehicle, driving out.

....

Dusk.

A military SUV emerged from the rapid underground passage.

Su Ming gazed out the car window into the distance where a giant base city came into view.

The city was filled with towering steel buildings, with countless tracks crisscrossing the sky. Holographic advertisements projected in the blank spaces.

In the sky, an artificial sun emitted gentle rays, with the twilight’s afterglow bathing the entire city.

"Where is the Federation Cosmic Army Headquarters?"

"It’s right at the center of the base city."

Kamoto quickly replied.

Su Ming looked into the distance and saw a towering metal Magic Cube, with pointed tops inverted, standing prominently at the center of the base city.

"So that’s the Federation Cosmic Army Headquarters! Quite distinctive."

Su Ming showed a slightly surprised expression.

"Indeed, the largest external command center of the Federation Government. Supplies and personnel transfers for the Three Forbidden Zones are all decided here."

Kamoto explained to Su Ming.

"Hmm."

Su Ming nodded slightly in response.

Not long after, Kamoto and Su Ming arrived at the entrance of the headquarters building.

Kamoto led Su Ming inside, passing several solemn military officers. freёnovelkiss.com

"Good day, sir!"

Kamoto continually saluted and greeted them.

Some officers responded with a slight nod, while others completely ignored Lieutenant Kamoto.

Su Ming noticed that these officers were of high rank, with the lowest being Captains, truly befitting the headquarters.

However, Su Ming didn’t pay much attention to them.

Soon, they entered the spacious lobby of the headquarters. The floor was laid with black mechanical tiles, each tile polished so bright that it could serve as a mirror.

The wide lobby had no lavish decorations, only statues of numerous brave military heroes.

"This way!"

Kamoto led Su Ming towards the nearby elevator.

....

Meanwhile, inside a minimalistic office.

Several young, attractive women dressed in lieutenant uniforms were eating wedding candy, laughing and chatting casually.

"I can’t believe that little girl Xiaoqiao really got together with Commander Sali."

"Yes, it’s really unexpected. So enviable!"

"Nothing to be envious about. There are plenty of high-quality single officers in the headquarters."

"Indeed, like General Tiger. He’s handsome, manly, young, and rich."

"You really know how to dream. But you should give up; General Tiger only has eyes for Lin Chuyu."

"I don’t get it. General Tiger is so good, has everything, yet why doesn’t she take notice? If it were me, I’d have stuck to him long ago."

"Haha, you think you’re worthy of sticking to him? I bet if you tried, no one would want you. Look at how many people are chasing Lin Chuyu."

"Whoa, when did it become forbidden to even dream? Speaking of which, is Su Ming really Lin Chuyu’s boyfriend?"

"Should be true."

"I’m curious what this Su Ming looks like, to have won Lin Chuyu’s heart."

"Isn’t it obvious? Childhood sweethearts, grew up together, good-looking, smooth talker, and that’s how he did it."

"Oh, that’s too bad."

...

Just then, the ajar office door was pushed open.

Kamoto led Su Ming inside, instantly startling the female military officers responsible for administrative tasks. Not expecting someone to arrive at closing time, they quickly stopped chatting and sat upright.
