Tang Bai watched Gu Tunan drink it down before he snapped out of his daze.

It really makes you feel better to admit your mistakes so openly.

Bean! You've grown up!

Tang Bai took a big sip from his cup of tea and said to Gu Tunan, "It's okay, it's all in the past, you're a very good alpha now.

Gu Tunan whispered, "You too, you're good."

...... Is this a compliment from a love interest?

Tang Bai and Gu Tunan exchanged a few pleasantries and looked quietly at Xie Ruhang.

He found Xie Ruhang staring at him sulkily, looking as if the proper court had seen his partner and his ex pulling a fast one.

Tang Bai: "?" Why are you looking at me like that.

"Hahahaha let's eat Tang Bai's stir-fried worm meat while it's hot, it's really super delicious." Qiu Yan rushed out to liven up the atmosphere after seeing the conversation finally end.

Brother Xie's face was all wrong after Gu Tunan had just said so much to Tang Bai! He didn't dare to leave his breath.

Bai Li looked at a frustrated Gu Tunan and then at Tang Bai, who mumbled, " Tang Bai, you ......" Very good.

Tang Bai gave a puzzled hmm.

The turquoise eyes suddenly flashed, "You make good worm meat."

Tang Bai: "???" No, brother, you haven't eaten yet.

Rong Yao took a bite of the worm meat and was suddenly in a good mood when he saw Tang Bai's sluggish look and the alpha's hard-to-conceal lost expressions.

Everyone loses anyway except Xie Ruhang, so it's not a big deal when you think about it.

"Come on, come on, let's keep eating! This worm meat really smells so good!" Qiu Yan desperately tried to liven up the atmosphere.

Tang Bai gave Xie Ruhang a large piece of food, and after noticing that Xie Ruhang was still staring at him, Tang Bai wondered over to Xie Ruhang and whispered, "What's wrong?"

Xie Ruhang, with a hint of gnashing of teeth: "Stupidity is contagious." He actually believes Tang Bai's evil, and is adamant that Gu Tunan likes him.

Tang Bai looked around and then asked Xie Ruhang, "Who is the idiot?"

Xie Ruhang said helplessly, "Little idiot."

Tang Bai: "???"

Tang Bai took a bite of the worm meat he offered Xie Ruhang and his cheeks puffed out as he said, "No more feeding benefits, bye!"

Xie Ruhang reached out and poked Tang Bai in the cheek, "Little badass."

Tang Bai's dumb and bad egg turns his head in anger and aims the back of his round head at Xie Ruhang.

Xie Ruhang smiles gently as he looks down at the stubbornly dull hair on the top of Tang Bai's head.

He hadn't wanted to laugh out loud, but the more he thought about it, the funnier it became.

He actually thinks Gu Tunan likes him.

And misunderstood for so long.

Stupidity turns out to be really contagious.

Tang Bai is a little bit of an under-compliment, but he has another skill: he is a brainwasher.

As Xie Ruhang shrugs and smiles, a small hand suddenly covers his eyes, the hand of Tang Bai.

Then the hand fumbled with the bridge of his nose, moved and moved, and covered his mouth.

Tang Bai himself remained angry at the task, carrying him on his back and saying menacingly, "Don't laugh, be serious, I'm angry with you!"

Xie Ruhang closes his mouth in a cooperative manner, but a smile escapes from the corners of his eyes.

When Qiu Yan, who was enthusiastically calling on everyone to eat worm meat, saw the scene, he put down the chopsticks he was holding forlornly; he felt he had had enough of dog food.

You Xiang followed suit: "It smells really good, but after I got bitten by that mutant insectoid, I'm a bit afraid to take a bite out of the insect meat."

Qin Jun spent his days tossing worm meat in the kitchen and raising that insectoid that couldn't be killed, leaving a heavy psychological shadow on his innocent teammates.

"That insectoid should really be dead, right?" You Xiang said with a bitter, heartfelt look on his face.

"Definitely." Tang Bai said, "With a ship that size gone, how could that insectoid be alive? Unless ......"

"Unless what?" Xiang You said with trepidation.

"Didn't you have a stellar collapse? The collapse of the star created a black hole, and at the same time created Einstein's Rosen Bridge, and Einstein's Rosen Bridge interacted with the black hole to distort the gravity field of space, which would have created a white hole in another part of the universe."

"Unless this mutant insectoid has encountered a temporal turbulence and crossed over to another place via Einstein's Rosen Bridge." Tang Bai said seriously, "But the chances of that happening I think are almost zero."

"Because the energy radiating from the universe is basically positive energy, it would have been basically impossible for a wormhole to give this insectoid a chance to create a connection swing in its natural state, and even if the ship had activated its self-destruct mode to absorb a lot of dark energy at the time, creating this condition in a way, it would have been very difficult for an insectoid to survive the space-time turbulence."

"It's hard for us humans to resist the temporal turbulence, and even if that insectoid is lucky enough to encounter the temporal turbulence, if it doesn't swing out within a certain period of time, then the dispersed particles will completely disappear and become all of four-dimensional space-time, with no way to exist in our three-dimensional space-time, which is equivalent to death."

Mo Zheng sniffed and asked, "So why are you raising this possibility?"

"The black hole feeds Einstein's Rosen Bridge, enabling it to form such a channel to travel through space-time, and while it's not long before Einstein's Rosen Bridge collapses, it shouldn't disappear that quickly."

"It will be there for a while and will only dissipate quickly when an object passes through Einstein's Rosen Bridge."

Tang Bai frowned a little, "I noticed then that Einstein's Rosen Bridge had disappeared after the ship had self-destructed."

You Xiang gulped, "What would happen if that insectoid got past Einstein's Rosen Bridge, as you said?"

"If it got through then it would have arrived in another part of the universe by now."

"How much longer until we get to that energy planet?" A player wailed, "I'm bored to death on the ship every day, and I thought I could fight the insects, but I haven't seen a single one all the way down."

"Bear with me, there's still a day to go and our group is already the closest ship to the energy star."

"Yeah, if it wasn't for the other groups on the way giving us the vast majority of the energy on their ships, we'd be going even slower now, and not to mention, playing a game has created a touching feeling of support from all sides in a crisis."

"Pop-ups say Gu Tunan confessed his love to Tang Bai in front of Xie Ruhang! Holy shit! What a scene! Aaaaaaaaahhhh, I'm going to watch the video of this!"

"What are you pushing me for? I want to see-"

The next words came to an abrupt end when the cadet saw the scene before him.

Outside the round window is not a vast starry sky, but a huge red compound eye.

"Alert! The Dream has encountered a giant mutant insectoid! Alert! The Dream has encountered a giant mutant insectoid!"

It was a giant insectoid over a kilometre long, with a metallic sheen all over its body, and if it too had a game panel, it would have read as follows.

[Name]: Virus 2

[Race]: Insectoid (mutated)

【Ability】:Infinite regeneration, infinite vulnerability, infinite possibilities

【Objective】:Swallow Tang Bai

Federal Military Academy.

"Attention all players! The first virus destruction plan has failed! The virus is currently portrayed in-game as an adult body giant mutant insectoid!" A teacher entered the message to be sent into the main system.

"The virus is known to have infinite regeneration and is difficult to destroy, therefore we have decided to abandon the virus destruction plan and ask all players to make an all-out run to the Energy Star! In view of the lack of energy and other problems on some of the ships, we will start the energy and personnel redistribution plan!"

After entering the information released to all the players, this teacher wiped the sweat from the corner of his forehead and opened the communication mode to the headmaster, "Your Excellency, are we really going to implement this plan?"

"Mr Cheng, we need to make trade-offs if necessary."

More sweat broke out on this Zheng's forehead as he switched off the communication, his fingers shaking and barely able to deliver the next message.

The mutated insectoid in the guise of a virus had somehow arrived near the Energy Star, it seemed to have some intelligence, or perhaps it was just coincidence that the insectoid had eaten the Dream, which was about to reach the Energy Star.

Then again, it guards the vicinity of the energy star like an evil dragon.

Affected by the virus, the only way for the game to end is for a player to reach the energy planet. If the school forces a break in the game, it is likely to cause a tragic brain death of all the students, so the game will never end as long as this insectoid eats all the teams that can reach the energy planet.

Every second of the game, the energy reserves on top of the ship are depleted, while the bug keeps growing and is able to regenerate infinitely, making it almost impossible for the player to destroy the mutant bug.

So in a very short space of time, the school leaders discussed a plan called the decoy plan.

Using the devouring instinct of the virus, a group of students is sacrificed as bait to lure away the virus from the Energy Star, taking advantage of the precious time the virus has left to allow another group of students to reach the Energy Star to end the game.

Civilians with average grades and no background will be given preference for placement as decoys.

To avoid panic, the pop-ups were set up with keyword blocking and advanced filtering, news of the Dream ship being killed or something like that would not get out and the players would not know about the plan, everyone ostensibly received the same mission, full steam ahead to the energy planet, except that some players were given the route of death.

"I received a transfer eh, it seems to say that the ship I'm going to is short of mech combatants." Qiu Yan asked Lu Lv: "What was the mission you received?"

"I'm also transferring out." Lu Lv said.

You Xiang raised his hand, "Me too, but I'm a scum five now, so I won't be much help to my teammates if I go."

Tang Bai looked at his mission, "I am staying here, and the ship will deliver energy to our Discovery."

After reading their assignments, the group found that only Qiu Yan, Lu Lv and You Xiang, the three mech students, had been transferred to another ship.

"I really don't want to be separated from Brother Xie." Qiu Yan had thought he could lie down and win all the way, but he didn't think he was going to walk on his own.

"I remember that there were players assigned to the mission to the Energy Star before, right, did none of that batch of players arrive?" Tang Bai looked to the pop-ups, expecting a detailed answer, but this time he only saw ambiguous pop-ups, such as a player who had met with an accident.

Inexplicably, Tang Bai's right eyelid suddenly fluttered.
