Chapter 374: Chapter 374: A High-Ranking Neptune
Lin Qi shook his head, "We’ve tried, but the player for this type of video and audio storage card has long been obsolete, not even antique shops have them, and the data inside can’t be transferred out, unless we find a professional to deal with it."
Su Wan thought that Ajue might have a way.
She said, "Can I take this with me? I’ll find someone to help take a look and see if it can be opened."
Lin Qi: "Of course you can, but Xiaowan, don’t put too much pressure on yourself. Those matters, such as saving a planet, don’t necessarily have to be done by us. We just hope that you can be healthy and happy, and for other things, don’t push yourself too hard."
Su Wan felt a warm feeling in her heart.
She nodded vigorously, "Mhm, I know."
The Lin Family’s personality was very open-minded, unconcerned with power, and only wishing for a peaceful and joyful life.
Lin Ranyue stabilized her emotions quickly when she was with her family.
However, Su Wan could not stay here for too long, as she had to attend the final assessment of the First Starship Fleet.
Regarding the old video and audio storage device, Su Wan had asked Gu Jue.
Gu Jue told her to find Andrew when she got back, as Andrew would find a way to extract the data.
When Su Wan found Andrew, it was obvious that Commander Gu had already told him about this matter.
Without a second word, he picked up the old storage device and started studying it.
"There are no players for this type of storage device anymore, but I can try to assemble one, which will take some time. Another method is to transfer the data out, but that might cause the video and audio to become invalid due to format issues."
Su Wan: "Then let’s try the first method you mentioned, to see if you can assemble it, okay?"
Andrew nodded.
His eyes shone with excitement.
This was exactly the kind of challenge he loved!
After leaving Andrew’s place, Su Wan planned to return to the dormitory, as tomorrow would be the day of the final assessment.
Everyone was quite nervous.
Even Sheng An, who was usually very calm, kept checking her mecha equipment and practiced in the school’s Mecha Training Ground.
When Su Wan found her, she noticed that the voice of her opponent sounded familiar.
After their sparring ended, the other person jumped out of the mecha.
It was Lan Ruojin.
This Mermaid Prince was now an official student at Empire University.
Even he was participating in this assessment for the First Starship Fleet.
People from Mermaid Planet were eligible to participate, but the screening for them was stricter.
After all, some of them had collaborated with the Insectoids before.
The Federation’s stricter scrutiny was understandable.
But Lan Ruojin didn’t have that problem, as he was from Lan Ruochen’s lineage, and they were actively trying to integrate into the life of the Federal Empire.
Lan Ruojin said with a smile, "Su Wan, are you also here to spar a few rounds?"
Su Wan: "Will you be my sparring partner too?"
Lan Ruojin: "No, no, no, let’s not do that. How about you guys spar and I’ll watch from the side?"
It just so happened that Sheng An also wanted to have a go with Su Wan.
Especially since Su Wan’s Vermilion Bird had a high level, sparring with a high-level mecha would definitely be very beneficial!
Su Wan agreed with a nod and summoned Vermilion Bird, and the two began to fight.
As they fought, Su Wan asked curiously, "Xiao’an, didn’t Lan Ruojin give up on you?"
Sheng An: "He’s just purely helping me as my sparring partner."
Su Wan reminded her, "Don’t believe that men can be pure, and definitely don’t believe Lan Ruojin can be pure."
This Mermaid Prince’s reputation for romance and affection was famous throughout the Universe.
He had many girlfriends, and what was even more amazing was that after breaking up with him, not a single one of them hated him.
They still say he’s a good man.
A sea king of rather high rank!
Sheng An nodded, "Yes, I have a plan in mind."
With her friend saying so, Su Wan did not delve deeper.
And Sheng An had always been reliable.
"By the way, Xiaowan, which fleet are you signing up for?"
The First Starship Fleet was renamed the Royal Starship Fleet, and aside from Gu Jue’s main fleet, the other eight fleets were all recruiting.
Of course, many were drawn to the more experienced fleet commanders.
For instance, the First Sub-Fleet led by Colonel Li Rui, which had an extremely high number of applicants!
While the commanders of the Seventh and Eighth Sub-Fleets were just promoted probationary commanders.
If the probation didn’t work out, not only the commanders would be unable to keep their posts, but what about their star warriors?
Su Wan said, "I am signing up for the Eighth Starship Fleet."
Sheng An was startled, "Jina and Alex also signed up for the Eighth Starship Fleet, but I think they are probably doing it to support Agros. Xiaowan, I thought you would go to the First Starship Fleet."
Su Wan said, "I asked Ajue about this, about which place poses the most challenges. He told me it was the fleets led by the two probationary commanders."
Because if they don’t achieve any accomplishments within two years, the commanders will be dismissed.
In such a scenario, the entire fleet would certainly strive particularly hard.
Sheng An suddenly realized, "Then I will also sign up for the Eighth Starship Fleet!"
Su Wan said, "Xiao’an, with your situation, you would actually be better suited to try out some of the earlier fleets. Don’t you want to establish a firm footing in the military department in order to support your younger siblings in the future?"
Sheng An said, "I have faith in Senior Agros and you guys. If we all work hard together, everyone will have a great future and prospects!"
Su Wan smiled.
This feeling of striving together with friends is truly wonderful.
When the assessment came the next day, Su Wan and her companions arrived at the Eighth Starship Fleet’s testing location.
They discovered that there were particularly many people here.
Luo Jina was stunned, "I thought that no one wanted to come to the Eighth Starship Fleet."
Su Wan said, "No, perhaps everyone believes that the likelihood of passing the assessment is greatest here."
Luo Jina understood, "That means those who came here aren’t very confident."
A male student nearby heard Luo Jina’s words, turned pale, and glared over fiercely.
But then he saw Su Wan and the very fierce Alex standing next to Luo Jina.
The male student silently shifted his gaze back.
But Su Wan’s words were not without theoretical basis.
Because she saw that Hiber among the crowd.
Clearly, when Hiber saw Su Wan, he was taken aback, and then a hint of schadenfreude flashed across his face.
It was unclear why he felt such secret delight.
Meanwhile, Sheng An said in a low voice, "Many people don’t have high hopes for the Eighth Starship Fleet, thinking it’s easy to get in. But when they see you, Xiaowan, perhaps they will think that this starship fleet will surely not be disbanded in the future."
Su Wan said speechlessly, "That’s overthinking it!"
The final assessment was very simple.
It involved the participating candidates challenging the official interstellar warriors, after which they would be scored based on their performance.
Those who passed were considered qualified.
Those who didn’t were deemed to have failed.
After hearing the rules, many people started to look towards Su Wan.
