Chapter 666: Chapter 685: A Flipped Impression, ’Goddess Jiang
Her combat record became a hot topic of discussion.
In the small cafeteria, a few students from the Mecha Department were sitting together.
Eating and chatting was everyone’s favorite way to relax after a day of training.
Usually, the hot topics during mealtime were about how many points you lost in Teacher Mao’s class, what your class ranking was, or how unlucky you were with the AI matchmaking, getting pitted against the reigning champ several times.
But today, there was only one topic on everyone’s mind—Jiang Qiuqiu.
One of the guys who had fought her had a complicated expression. "I never expected... I never expected her to become so sluggish after switching to a Medium-sized Mecha."
’So she wasn’t an insurmountable mountain after all.’
Another person chimed in, "Yeah, she’s way too slow. Not only is she sluggish, but her stamina has gotten worse too." He used to watch Jiang Qiuqiu’s PKs often. "Back when she was piloting Light Armor, she could stay in near-peak condition for an entire class."
"It seems switching to a Medium-sized Mecha had a huge impact on her."
"Of course. The difference in G-forces can be a killer." Looked at another way, this meant the female student was just that incredible. "In less than two months, she’s already advanced to Intermediate Mecha. She’s too strong."
"Yeah, she’s really strong."
The greater the negative impact, the more it convinced everyone of Jiang Qiuqiu’s strength.
For one, she was overcoming so many difficulties.
And two, she had the courage to step out of her comfort zone. "If it were me, I couldn’t have swallowed my pride and lost like that. I would’ve just stuck with Light Armor." At least he’d be able to win.
"You can’t do that." Another guy sitting in the middle shook his head. "Light Armor is too niche. Half the pilots who use it just end up as Scouts; they rarely get to lead a charge."
"She made the right choice picking Medium Armor. Look at the Model B2 Mecha she piloted today—that’s already an intermediate combat Mecha. If she improves just a little more and can pilot a Model B1 Warrior Mecha, she could totally become a Commander."
"I don’t know what to say. She’s really like a goddess."
"I finally get why those guys call her a goddess." One of the boys bit his spoon, his gaze drifting off as if reminiscing. "I happened to be stationed next to her today. When she got out of the Mecha, I wanted to help support her, but she insisted on standing on her own for the rest of the lecture."
"And when Teacher Mao was scolding her, her expression never changed. She’s so composed, totally badass."
’A girl like that... ah.’
The career choice and future development analysis session quickly devolved into a gossip fest for single guys crushing on their goddess.
"That’s nothing."
"Didn’t people say she’s a super famous food streamer? I went and checked out her livestream."
"So what did you see? I heard it was all just hype."
"No, her cooking looks seriously, unbelievably delicious. But I was watching old archived videos, so there was no finished product to taste. I didn’t get to eat any, but it just looked so good. But that’s not the point!"
"?"
’That’s not the point?’
"The point is, do you have any idea what Student Jiang is like when she’s livestreaming? Oh my god."
"You would never guess. She’s like a completely different person from when she’s training!"
So gentle.
As gentle as a spring breeze.
Pleasant and refreshing, cute and captivating.
His words piqued the curiosity of those around him.
"Really?"
"I’d heard about it before but never looked it up. Now that you mention it, I suddenly want to go see for myself."
"But even if I did fall for her, there’s no way she’d ever look at me. She’s too dazzling... It feels like we’re not even on the same path. You’d have to be one of the chosen ones to be worthy of her." He added, "At the very least, you’d have to be on the same level as Huo Jia from our class."
